We understand you want us to focus on these items only, but with all of the evidence that has been brought forward and inconsistencies from your client, we need to look at everything. All of the evidence leads put to these 6 inconsistencies. Sgt. Ramos — We try to work with the owners to get their paperwork and log books up to date. So, we don’t always present the BOS with our first inspection visit; we try to educate the owners. I have worked with Ms. Goulart on many occasions. Some years are worse then other. Since the last meeting I received documentation from Monheim Auto Auction, showing other employees listed to buy vehicles. Currently there are 3 names listed, but in the past there have been at least 30 different names and Ms. Goulart is not one of them. I was told by Mr. Enis that only he and his wife bought and sold vehicles. The document also shows that Mr. Enis, Jr is the owner of Hornbine Enterprises. > §. Vadnais — Back in 2009 it was asked of Ms. Goulart if she would like to add Mr. Enis as a buyer on the license, she declined. We were clear with them that he could NOT sell or buy vehicles. It was revisited in 2023. Twice she has been told no one else but her could purchase & sell vehicles. This is not new News. > M. Costello made a Motion to close the public hearing
