4. Staff recommends motion to approve: a settlement agreement with Nasim Akhter

Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners · 2026-08-25 · agenda_item

This item concerns a proposed settlement agreement for a code compliance lien on a convenience store property. The property is located at 4981 Vilma Lane, West Palm Beach. The settlement proposes reducing the lien amount to $86,050. This would involve an upfront payment of $15,000 and the remaining balance paid over 48 months. The property previously had violations including pest infestation, disrepair of structures, and unpermitted renovations. These violations have since been corrected. The item is currently under review, with staff recommending approval. This process involves resolving a financial lien rather than initiating new construction or site work. Therefore, the direct opportunities for contractors and suppliers are limited to services related to lien resolution and property management, should the settlement proceed. Early engagement with the property owners or county officials might provide insights into any related needs.
