Rody Blanco and Jenny Del Pino own certain real property located at 8821 N.W. 153 Terrace, Miami Lakes, Florida 33016 (the "Real Property"). During the past several years, various code enforcement violations have been assessed against the Real Property. In 2018, the Town learned that Mr. Blanco and Ms. Del Pino had leased the Real Property to Florida Health and Life Recovery Center, LLC. This Center has used the Real Property as a short term, day and night facility for its patients. Based on information, this center transports its patients to a facility in Hialeah for treatment and allows its patients to use the Real Property as a dormitory. This center has not complied with current Town Ordinance regarding commercial enterprises and community housing, principally registration.

At this time, Rody Blanco and Jenny Del Pino are facing a foreclosure action by U.S. Bank, of which the Town is a party of. Rody Blanco and Jenny Del Pino are desirous of entering into an agreement with the bank and the Town in order to return once again to the Real Property and use the Real Property as their homestead.

Accordingly, Rody Blanco and Jenny Del Pino have agreed, upon expiration, to terminate the lease agreement with Florida Health and Life Rehabilitation, to bring the property into full compliance, to cooperate with the Town staff and inspectors and provide access to the Real Property. In return for their cooperation, the Town will agree to suspend their accruing code violations subject to their compliance with the terms of the agreement.

As such, the proposed settlement agreement will protect the health and welfare of the Town and bring the Real Property into full compliance with the Town Code.
