The City Commission is considering Temporary Resolution #R8661 to approve a contract with The Belony Law Group, PLLC for specialized services related to the collection of outstanding code enforcement liens and past-due balances owed to the City. This firm, led by attorneys with extensive experience in municipal law and code enforcement, will handle collection, litigation, and related services. The proposed fee structure is a contingency of 20% of all amounts actually collected, with the City reimbursing approved litigation costs. This initiative aims to systematically recover municipal funds that have remained unresolved through standard administrative procedures. The services are being procured under an exemption for professional services, citing the firm's unique expertise in this area.
