Bill Summary DEFER There was a lengthy discussion on
this item. Mr. & Mrs. Charles Dixon, owners
of the property that abuts 5025 Dixie Landing Drive, addressed the Committee
(and distributed the text of their remarks) and requested that the Committee
reject the settlement ordinance. They
argued that the parcel is a component of a family owned compound and they
would not like anyone else having access to it. The property at issue is land-locked
and road frontage is the concern. Assistant General Counsel Paige
Johnston explained the property issue.
She explained that when the bank, Fannie Mae, went to LUZ to seek a
waiver on the road frontage issue that would enable the bank to put the
foreclosed property on the market, LUZ denied the request. The denial triggered the bank’s inoking a procedure in Section 70.51, F.S. that required
the issue to be considered by a Special Magistrate. Attorney Reese Henderson,
representing Fannie Mae, explained the bank’s position. Numerous questions were fielded by
Ms. Johnston and an extensive discussion ensued. Council Vice President Crescimbeni
repeatedly questioned why this matter was before the City Council. To him, it seemed to be a matter of
contention between the Dixons and the bank. Council Member Reggie Gaffney asked
that the item be deferred a cycle to provide the Committee with an
opportunity to better understand the issue in the dispute. The Chair concurred and deferred the item. |
