Councilwoman McCoy unsympathetic

I am watching the Hercules City Council meeting in which a resident is appealing the $200 he was charged for a hearing that resulted from his complaint about an illegal structure near his home.   Councilwoman McCoy voted to stick it to the resident for $200.  The other 4 council members voted to support the refund of the $200.  The irony is that the builder violated laws regarding the approval process and the City did not penalize that homeowner for these violations.   But they sure wanted this concerned citizen's $200.  And Councilwoman McCoy was ok with this?
