OFFICE OF THE VILLAGE MANAGER LETTER TO COUNCIL
NO. 103-2021
To: Mayor Gabriel Groisman and Members of the Village Council
From: Jorge M. Gonzalez, Village Mana
Date: July 21, 2021
Subject: Recent Actions - 10175 Collins AvIiue (Tiffany of Bal Harbour Condominium)
The purpose of this Letter to Council is to inform you of recent actions taken by the
Building Official at the Tiffany of Bal Harbour Condominium.
As you know, on July 2, 2021, the Building Official, as part of his review of the Village's
building inventory, sent a courtesy notice advising the building of their required
adherence to Miami -Dade County Code Chapter 8-11(f). This letter also reminded them
that their 40 -year recertification is due in 2022. In addition, the Building Official and I
conducted a visual assessment of the building on July 15, 2021.
As a result of this assessment, the Building Official has been in communication with the
condominium's hired structural engineer, who has been engaged to lead their
recertification process. The Building Official is now in receipt of a letter from Optimus
Structural Design LLC, identifying concerns in certain areas of the building.
Based on the Engineers findings and recommendations, the Building Official placed a
Stop Work Order on an active permit that was issued for the Spa/Gym Renovations. In
addition, he has restricted use and access of the pool deck, upper and lower parking
areas below the pool and jacuzzi.
In addition, a Notice of Violation was issued for the existing conditions on the roof, which
are not up to Florida Building Code. The roof overflow scuppers were covered, leaving
the roof without secondary drainage. This has created a condition where water
accumulates on the rooftop, creating an unnecessary load on the building. A copy of
the Stop Work Order and Notice of Violation are attached for your information and
reference.
Should you have any questions or require additional information please do not hesitate
to contact me.
