GWYNN December 11 1984 Town Clark a BARBARA DWYNN Chief of Police JAMES GREER Msrs. James Wood & John Steiger 2588 Avenue Au Soleil Gulf Stream, Fla. 33444 Dear Sirs: Upon physical inspection on December 3, 1984 of your lot No. 39 on Avenue Au Soleil, I find your property line wooden fence in badly needed repair and quite obviously not in keeping with the esthetic appearance of the neighborhood. The presence of debris, vines, or underbrush, weeds, wild growth in excess of 12" in height are also evidence on the interior of lot No. 39. This is in violation of Ordinance No. 84 -5, Section I. As you must be aware, this situation constitutes a menance to life, property and public health by providing a nest or breeding for sand - fleas, mosquitos, rats, mice and other rodents. The Town of Gulf Stream Ordinance No. 84 -5 adopted October, 1984, Section II of that ordinance authorizes the Town Manager or his representative to notify in writing of the conditions existing on said lot. The Town respectfully requests that the above mentioned violations be corrected within 30 days. Upon failure, neglect, or refusal of the owner to remove and eliminate said conditions as described, the Town is authorized upon approval of the Town Com- mission to contract and pay for such maintenance and bill the property owner for such cost as provided in the Code of Ordinances. Sinc rely, e DeGange k Code Enforcement Officer cc/ Mr. R. A. Malmstrom, President of the Place Au Soleil Homeowners Association. ,r ?588 Ave Au Soleil Gulf Stream Fla - December 16 198�A1 CMe Barbara Gwynn, Town Clerk „ 246 Sea Road Gulf Stream Fla I l Dear Mrs Gwynn, We simply cannot believe that the charming, gracious, and under- standing lady we met in her office a few ,years ago to discuss our problems with the Place Au Soleil Homeowners Assn could have consented to or even been aware of a letter recently sent to us (dated Dec 11, 1984) by a certain Joe DeUnge on Town stationery, If he acted on his own just to please a certain R A Malmstrom, he s!?,ould be summarily dismissed. If, on the other hand, he acted with the full consent and knowledge of the Town of Gulf Stream, please be advised that we will not submit to intimidation, harassment, discrimination, or threats by the Town of gulf Stream env more than we will submit to them from the Place Au Soleil Homeowners Assn. If n-ce-sarv, -P will have recourse to the law. The law is on our side. Please consult with the Town attorney, and have him explain hor the law (or Town ordinances) must be applied enually to all or not Pt P11. If he cannot give a sufficient explanation, out attornev will. Enclosed is a copy of a letter we sent to Ma.lmetrom citing a few ex- amples of violations of Homeowners Assn. and Town ordinances; and Peking him to send us copies of threats sent to these other violators. N3edless to say, we never re- ceived the requested copies. To mention just orp additional flagrant violation of Town ordinances: the owner of lot # 64 was issued a. C 0 and all,owad to dwell in his new house for half a year without any landscaping 1,eing done. Please read the enclosed aforementioned letter to Malmstrom. It st?tes our position clearly. Due to illness we have not been able to do any work on our lot, but we will get to it as soon as we can. Also, as sooi as we can , we will have the old fence replaced with a new one, This is the best we can do, but it cannot he done in 30 days. Please advise us whether this will satisfy the Town of Gulf Stream. The Harassment, discrimination, intimidation, and threats we have re- ceived from the Homeowners Assn, and the Town of Gulf Stream are causing us greet mental anguish, emotional upset, and sleepless nights. Let there b6 an end to it. It would be worthwhile for all concerned to read an article on psychic dPmPge on nexe 129 in the Dec 179 1984, issue of .Forbes magazine, Merry Christmas! Let us hear from you soon. Sincerely, t ohn E Steiger -James h Wood cc/ R A Malmstrom � }} / \ \ \ \ \ \ \\ } } { \ \ \�� ,a�\E;��m }k /0 .Hamm % �%�� mm$Eoe�( 2e: �� '�%,�%/ _ Q��).
