Proclamations There were no proclamations at this meeting. 6. Citizen Comments Judy Davis, I l3 SE 2'd Court, addressed the recent street closure in her neighborhood. She said her neighborhood is now getting the traffic that was diverted fiom SE 1'r Street. Ms. Davis noted she has attended most of the meetings in connection with street closures, as well as those held by Boyd Gaming. She thought this was the wrong decision and requested that the City reverse the street closure. Sean Eckhardt, 4741 SW 42"d Tenace, described the problem with the structure on his property. He spoke with City Manager Pato after the August 26 Commission meeting as directed by the City Commission. Mr. Eckhardt does not feel that the City Manager is gathering enough information, other than from the Code Compliance Unit. City Manager Pato responded that he does not have the authority to do what Mr. Eckhardt wants, based on the legal advice he has been given. City Attomey Ansbro noted that unfortunately Mr. Eckhardt inherited the problem from the previous owners. Mr. Eckhardt stated that his property was grandfathered in when it was annexed into the City in 2001. He noted that the person who brought this matter up does not have a problem with the illegal structure on his property, but with him personally. Mr. Eckhardt asked for the Commission to uphold the promise made years ago. Commissioner Flury requested the Commission Minutes from 2002 be retrieved to see what the Commission said at the time. She noted the matter was resolved then and there should be records to show that. City Attomey Ansbro advised that in order to be grandfathered in, the structure should have been approved by a former law. He noted Mr. Eckhardt could apply for a variance and ultimately get relief from the Commission. Commissioner Flury pointed out there were a lot of illegal structures that were grandfathered in during the Armexation process. Mr. Eckhardt responded for Commissioner Anton that the structure has been there for 36 years, survived several hurricanes and nobody has ever come to inspect it. He noted Code Compliance gave him a deadline of September 13 to resolve the problem. Commissioner Anton acknowledged a lot of promises were made during the Annexation, and we need to abide by them. Commissioner Bertino suggested we agenda this issue for the next Commission meeting and gather as much information as possible for the meeting. Mr. Eckhardt noted that it is his understanding that there were "summary agreements" signed by the owners in the Edgewater area referring to "all illegal structures being forgiven". George Jason, 4549 SW 37th Avenue, on behalf of Dania Beach Neighborhoods United Association, asked the City to be a partner in bringing the League of Hard of Hearing Program to Minutes of Regular Meeting Dania Beach City Commission Tuesday, September 9, 2008 - 7:00 p.m. 2 City Manager Pato noted he would visit the property with Code Officers and the Building Official and report back to the City Attomey and the Commission. offer free hearing impaired phone service and related equipment to those City residents who qualify. He hoped the City would get involved in such a beneficial program. Brian Barrett, 108 SE 3'd Avenue, addressed the street closure on Stirling Road. He noted he attended some of the CRA community meetings and most of the neighbors in attendance opposed the closure. Mr. Barrett also mentioned that the City should have taken into consideration the drainage problems on SE 1't Street before installing speed bumps. He asked the process on street closures be re-visited because the neighborhood was not properly notified of the closure. Ralph Eddy, 150 SE 3'd Avenue, noted he tumed in a petition several years ago for a street closure and nothing happened. He advised that when Boyd Gaming bought Dania Jai Alai, Kimley-Hom and Associates had meetings at City Hall to discuss what would happen in the southeast area. A committee of 15 people was formed to continue to meet with Kimley-Hom and give input. Mr. Eddy further stated that the City approved the Kimley- Hom project and it is almost complete. He commented he is very pleased with this project. Jeff Guzowski,238 SE 2n't Street, commented his street is not a through street for the businesses on Dania Beach Boulevard. He advised he was notified of the meetings regarding the street closure and attended a1l of them. Elizabeth Smith, 215 SE 1'r Terrace, noted she also attended all the Boyd Gaming meetings. She said she was not aware that Stirling Road would be closed. She stated that the road closure is not working and they have to use SE 1" Street to get to their house. Ms. Smith was concemed as to how she would get to her house ifthe streets flood. Commissioner Anton acknowledged that this process began before Boyd Gaming and there was overwhelmingly support for the closure of SE 2'u Street at the time. He asked City Manager Pato for a report on the traffic counts in the area. Commissioner Anton advised this was done as a tempora.ry measure to see if it would work. He asked BSO Chief Peterson to do some selective enforcement in the area, to make sure people are abiding by the law. Commissioner Anton finally noted that he is not opposed to having another workshop, but does not support taking down the closure at this time. Commissioner Flury echoed Commissioner Anton's comments. She noted that we must give this temporary measure some time. We also need to get the appropriate data from the traffic study to compare before and after. Commissioner Flury agreed that we have to workshop this matter with the entire community. Mayor Jones noted this is not etched in stone and the Commission listens to the citizens and their concems. He thought we should let the majority rule if it is beneficial to most of the community. Bob Bartelmes, 214 SW 2nd Terrace, said he may want a speed bump instead of a speed hump on his street. Minute s of Regular Meeting Dania Beach City Corrunission Tuesday, September 9, 2008 7:00 p.m. 3 Rose Lizana, 214 SE 2"d Street, noted the Dania Press did notice and notify the residents in the City of the street closure meetings. She agreed that we had to give the street closure some time before taking further action. Ms. Lizana addressed a tragedy that occurred in St. Louis Missouri, her hometown. She noted that in the small town of Kirkwood, a disgruntled resident came to the Commission meeting and shot and killed two police officers, two commissioners, and the public services director; the Mayor was also shot in the head and died over the weekend. Ms. Lizana suggested that the City consider installing metal detectors to avoid any possibility of this type of tragic incident. Fay Bartelmes, 214 SW 2nd Terrace, noted she is embarrassed that Mr. Eckhardt is still having problems from when his property was annexed into the City. She further commented on the speeding on her street, and drug dealers on 2nd Terrace. Ms. Bartelmes asked for a speed bump to slow down traffic. Clare Vickery, Grace's Cafe and Gallery, 49 N. Federal Highway, tumed over her time to Elizabeth Wentworth and Gwen Watson who are very supportive of the Art and Antique Fest'ival. Elizabeth Wentworth, 600 W. Las Olas Boulevard, urged the Commission to support the Dania Beach Art and Antique Festival to enhance the City's sense ofplace and economic development. Gwen Watson, Watson and Associates, 512 NE 3'd Avenue, noted she would like to bring the Dania Beach Art and Antique festival to another level of corporate sponsorship. She noted there are grants that can be brought to the City for the Festival. Ms. Watson urged the Commission to support the Festival so it becomes an economic engine for the City of Dania Beach. Vice-Mayor Castro asked Ms. Vickery if she had prepared a budget for the upcoming Festival Ms. Vickery said the budget has been prepared and tumed into the City. She further noted that they are working with City staff as of October 1't to utilize the available funds for the show next year. City Manager Pato noted he is excited about the Festival. He further commented that it was too early to bring anything to the Commission. City Manager Pato noted for the record that the timetable for the Library Agreement to be finalized after County approval is 45-60 days. He further advised that we have been moving forward so we are ready when documents are executed and retumed by Broward County.
