Code Enforcement Special Magistrate Hearing — 11/9/2026 - 1:00 p.m.

The City of Titusville’s Code Enforcement Special Magistrate hearing was held November 9, 2026. The magistrate considered a lien-reduction request for work performed without permits at a Melbourne property. The original accrued fines were $82,500; the magistrate granted a reduction to $16,500, payable within 30 days, with the record indicating the reduction would be referred to the City Council for its decision. The owner’s representative said the violations were corrected and described delays involving contractors and permitting. The hearing also addressed multiple code-enforcement cases involving unpermitted construction, property maintenance, drainage, and vehicles. Orders included compliance deadlines and conditional daily fines, including $25, $50, $100, $250, or $500 per day depending on the case, as well as recovery of city costs. Examples included $2,444 in costs for a drainage case, with permits due within 30 days and work within 90 days, and $622.86 in costs for a roofing case with a 30-day permit deadline. In an agricultural-use dispute, the magistrate said he would review the appeal file before issuing a final decision on the City’s proposed modification of an earlier order. No procurement activity was identified.
