Discussion: <br />On February 5, 2002, the Board of County Commissioners authorized code <br />enforcement staff to engage counsel to file an injunction action against Fred Mensing. The <br />Board also authorized the county attorney to foreclose code enforcement liens. Clem, <br />Polackwich, Vocelle & Berg, L L P , was engaged at rates of $150/hr./partner, $140/hr./ <br />associate, and $75/hr./paralegal. Rather than maintaining two lawsuits, I authorized <br />Attorney Polackwich to include a foreclosure count in his Complaint. The litigation is <br />underway. Fees and costs to date total $4,318.01. <br />Inasmuch as the County Administrator is authorized by ordinance to expend up to <br />$5,000, it is requested that the Board authorize expenditure of an amount up to $5,000 <br />over and above an initial administrative $5,000. Funds will come from account No. <br />004207524033.19. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED BY Vice <br />Chairman Tippin, the Board unanimously authorized <br />expenditure of an amount up to $5,000 over and above an initial <br />administrative $5,000, to the law firm of Clem, Polackwich, <br />Vocelle & Berg, L L P , in the matter of Indian River County v. <br />Mensing, et al, as recommended in the memorandum. <br />7.
