The Code Enforcement Board was created to issue orders having the force of law commanding
whatever steps are necessary to bring a Code violation into compliance.
Florida Statutes Section 162.05(2) requires members of the Code Enforcement Board to be
residents of the City of Miami. City Code Section 2-812 states that whenever possible, the
board is to consist of an architect, a businessperson, an engineer, a general contractor, a
subcontractor, and a realtor.
Two (2) appointments are needed at this time:
• The Commission -at -Large has two (2) nominations for seats currently held by:
1. Charles McEwan, incumbent, whose term expired February 12, 2009, has served as a
member since February 10, 2000 and would require a term waiver by a unanimous
(5/5ths) vote of the Commission.
2. Roy Hardemon, incumbent Alternate -at -Large member, whose term expires on
September 10, 2011, has exceeded the number of allowed absences (5 in 2008) and
would require a 4/5ths waiver of attendance.
For your convenience, we have included a copy of the current membership of said board. By copy
of this memorandum, we are requesting the Agenda Office to place this issue on the March 12,
2009 Commission agenda. This matter was deferred from the February 12, 2009 Commission
