III. PUBLIC HEARINGS
1. TX-18-018-26: The applicant, the City of Dania Beach, is requesting a text amendment to the City’s Code
of Ordinance, Chapter 28 of the Land Development Code (LDC), regarding Board attendance.
Claudia Viviana Batista, Planning and Zoning Manager, presented this agenda item with a PowerPoint presentation.
She explained that this was to adopt an ordinance that would make all attendance requirements consistent for all
advisory boards. She gave the background details for this ordinance and the recommendations of two absences
(excused or unexcused) in a twelve-month period with removal upon the third absence. The Community Development
Department was requesting that the board recommend approval of this ordinance to the City Commission. City
Attorney Boutsis explained the six-month to the twelve-month change (consistency with the Charter Amendment) and
now the number of absences would be the same for all boards. Some questions and discussions involved how many
absences were allowed for the City Commission, board members could get sick, have obligations, members attend
remotely for a legitimate reason, the importance for advisory board members to attend, and professionalize the board
member position with an ID Card, etc. City Attorney Boutsis explained State Law control and she gave an example
of needing an in-person quorum for a meeting and also that illness could be considered for attending remotely as long
as there was a quorum present. As there were no other board questions/comments, the Chair called for public
comment. Shawn DeRosa, resident, asked the board members to recommend unanimous denial of this text amendment
and some of the reasons he spoke about were residents’ concerns regarding increased density and height, quasi-judicial
Planning and Zoning Board/Local Planning Agency Minutes 2 May 20, 2026
fairness, integrity, public trust and other apprehensions. Removing board members on the third absence, even for an
excused absence, could create a dangerous appearance problem. Robert Kirchgraber, resident, explained why he
requested the board to vote no on this text amendment. Amongst other things, he felt this ordinance appeared
administrative on the surface but at a time when the City was discussing density, rezoning, development, intensity,
traffic, flooding, etc., advisory boards could become less independent by discouraging public participation. Chair
Robertson disagreed and explained that when selected, the board member understood the dates they were expected to
attend. They were not to miss 25% of the meetings. Vice Chair De Las Salas agreed because people have to
understand their commitment but he did express concern for alternate board members. There were no other board
comments.
Motion was made by Board Member Roberts to recommend approval to the City Commission for TX-018-26 with
the understanding per State Law that remote attendance due to an emergency would be counted as attending if
there was a quorum present and was seconded by Chair Robertson. Motion passed 5-0.
2. TX-020-26: The property owner, CP DI IOS DANIA LP, is requesting a text amendment to the City’s
Land Development Code (LDC) relating to the Marine zoning district.
Alejandra Cuervo, Planner, presented this agenda item with a PowerPoint presentation starting with background
information. She explained the new category created within Section 110-20 and that there would be an amendment
to Section 110-305 as well. The Community Development Department was requesting that the board recommend
approval of this ordinance to the City Commission. The applicant was here as well. Attorney Heidi Davis explained
about adding a compatible use within the Marine Zoning District and explained more about the new proposed use.
Board Member Roberts expressed concern regarding Old Griffin Road being one lane in each direction and an Air
Stream RV could be coming up or down a lane. Attorney Davis explained how that would not be a problem. Board
Member Wright had a question that was answered by the attorney regarding the selling price range for an Air Stream
RV. As there were no further board questions/comments, the Chair called for public comment. Robert Kirchgraber
wanted to know what staff’s recommendation of approval was based upon. City Attorney Boutsis explained that it
was based on staff’s analysis which was in the agenda packet. Each item has a Staff Report and she gave him her
copy of the report for this item. There were no other public requests to speak.
Motion was made by Vice Chair De Las Salas to recommend approval to the City Commission of TX-020-26 and
was seconded by Board Member Rauhe. Motion passed 5-0.
3. TX-019-26: The applicant, the City of Dania Beach, is requesting several text amendments to the form-
based zoning districts located within the Regional Activity Center (RAC) regarding height and density in the
City’s Code of Ordinances, Land Development Code (LDC).
Corinne Lajoie, Deputy Director Community Development, presented this agenda item with a PowerPoint
presentation on Smart Strategic Growth: While Preserving Our Hometown Feeling starting with Dania Beach’s vision
and quality of life expectations. She spoke about the decline in funding from the Building Fund, a main source of
money for the City. She pointed out the effect of reduced height, density and the change of zoning on things like
public art, parks and recreation, impact fees, etc. She went over planned redevelopment and improvements in parks
which were now unfunded. She spoke about targeted development opportunities and went over height and density as
of today and then as proposed (to include incentives) in different City zoning districts. The Deputy Director then
explained the incentives and asked for questions. Board Member Wright spoke about seven-story height and the City
now wanting to go with something else. He felt that more density (allowing for higher population) would increase
traffic. Board Member Rauhe questioned going back to fourteen stories and the Deputy Director explained that the
mixed use would allow a reduction in infrastructure requirements (roads, lanes, etc.,) because people would be living
in close proximity allowing for walkability instead of driving. Board Member Roberts had a question on the Mangrove
area and the Deputy Director answered his question. His point was to not encourage construction in that area with the
outcry coming from the community. Vice Chair De Las Salas asked for incentives to encourage investment or paying
into a fund for infrastructure improvements, storm drainage, capital improvements, resiliency, etc. and the Deputy
Director explained how this could be done. Board Member Wright spoke about density on Federal Highway which
was already impassable. Vice Chair De Las Salas felt the traffic was not that bad on Federal. Board Member Roberts
asked about generating more funding. The Deputy Director reminded the board to make a recommendation to the
City Commission tonight. She also described how developers were looking for additional height and how that worked
in the past. As there were no other board questions/comments, the Chair called for public comments.
Mary Jane Myscich, resident, said she heard the Deputy Director speak at the April 14th meeting. Ms. Myscich felt
the City was in a vicious cycle whereby we have to build to get impact fees which was a one-time thing. We need to
be more analytical in order to get more revenue. She spoke about the new buildings to be built on 441 and Griffin and
if there was a traffic study done. She felt the City did not have to buy artwork as corporations could do that for us.
Planning and Zoning Board/Local Planning Agency Minutes 3 May 20, 2026
Robert Kirchgraber, resident, was concerned about density. He felt we did not have a revenue problem but rather we
have a spending problem. Density would increase traffic, flooding, etc. and he was asking this board to vote this
down until there was further clarification on where our dollars were being spent and why it was not spent wisely.
Taxpayers and developers could not be bailouts. Shawn DeRosa, resident, asked the board to vote no on this proposed
increase in building height. Some items he talked about were roads that were overwhelmed, traffic was backed up,
drainage and storm water systems were struggling, etc. This ordinance proposed dramatic increases in height and
density in multiple zoning districts. Growth should be infrastructure driven and not developer driven. He requested
the board to recommend denial. He agreed that it was a spending problem and explained how. The Deputy Director
clarified that the Wyland Turtle sculpture was dedicated to the City by the developer because of the public art mandate.
Vice Chair De Las Salas felt that status quo was not acceptable. He gave the example of Federal Highway to him was
not the best version that it could be. If we could get rid of the “seedy” buildings there, that would improve quality of
life. Increasing housing could make prices more affordable and building up helped with that. He spoke about the
forthcoming issue of decreased property taxes and how the City was trying to deal with it. He suggested an incentive
development fund to pay for resiliency, sewer system, flooding, etc. As there were no further board
comments/questions, the Chair called for a motion.
Motion was made by Board Member Wright to recommend denial to the City Commission of TX-019-26 and was
seconded by Board Member Roberts.
Discussion Ensued: Board Member Rauhe asked about the five different zoning areas and if the vote was for all
the areas of not. Deputy Director Lajoie explained that it was presented as a whole but there could be amendments
to the motion or if the board wanted to see changes, that could be identified as amendments to the motion. Vice
Chair De Las Salas answered Board Member Wright that development on Federal Highway would make the land
more valuable and encourage investment. Community Development Director Norena clarified that the code did
not allow for fifteen stories and that the City would definitely look into incentives for storm water improvements.
Motion passed 4-1. (Vice Chair De Las Salas voted against.)
IV. BOARD ITEMS
1. City Commission actions on items previously heard by the Board:
• TX-002-26 Text Amendment RAC Permitted Use Table
1st Reading on April 14th City Commission: Motion passed unanimously.
2nd Reading on April 28th City Commission: Motion passed unanimously.
• RZ-034-24 Griffin Living Rezoning

2. Upcoming Meeting date: June 17, 2026
Deputy Director Lajoie explained that there would be a June 17th meeting but the rest of the summer meetings, unless
there would be pressing applications, would be canceled.
V. PUBLIC COMMENTS
The Chair called for public comments.
Shawn DeRosa, resident, handed out documentation. He shared substantial concerns about the 2750 Griffin Living
vote for the site plan and rezoning. He said there were legal errors and defective / legally flawed processes that took
place. He spoke about ongoing prohibited vacation rental in the Griffin Living building. He stated that the City
Attorney and City Planners came forward and provided improper legal guidance and analysis. No where in the zoning
was it listed as acceptable use / permittable use for hotels, transient lodging, short-term lodging and vacation rentals.
So if transient lodging, short-term lodging and vacation rental lodging were going on in that building, it was a
violation. The City needed to cite it and bring the building into compliance. The rezoning application and the site
plan should not have come forward for a vote. There were also code violations. This information was all in his packet
that was distributed. He also spoke about proper notice to the community. He was asking for the board to investigate
and look into this. Robert Kirchgraber, resident, also talked about the Griffin Living project with its approval and
how it was handled. This was a private development approval that directly affected nearby residents. Residents
believed there wasn’t full transparency with this project. There wasn’t proper notice or fair opportunity for the public
to understand, prepare, object and participate. He read a timeline of events into the record. He asked four questions
by reading them into the record and asked for them to be answered and disclosed to the public.
MEETING ADJOURNED
As all business was completed, the meeting was adjourned at approximately 8:20PM by the Chair without objection.

CITY ATTORNEY’S OFFICE
MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 9, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Eve A. Boutsis, City Attorney
SPONSOR: Commissioner Lori Lewellen
SUBJECT: Public Art Board Amendment
The Request:
To approve the amendment to the City’s public art board ordinance.
Background:
To update the city’s public art board ordinance by eliminating the Commission liaison position
and clarifying that the Board is only to review (1) private developer public art applications due to
the ordinance requirements; (2) art approved in the annual art plan; or (3) after review of a request
by the City Commission. And, to update the definition of public art as follows:
Public art means a work of visual art within public view from the public right-of-way, public parks
or public building exteriors, in a variety of media produced by a professional visual artist(s).
Artworks may be permanent or functional. Artworks may include painting, sculptures, engravings,
carvings, frescoes, murals, collages, mosaics, statues, tapestries, photographs, prints, drawings,
ceramics, crafts, installations, digital and light-based works, fabric and textile works, earthworks,
conceptual works, functional elements if designed by a professional artist, or such other visual art
media as shall be deemed appropriate by the PAAB. Artworks may include a performance,
participatory or time-based element. Public art shall not include artworks designed by the capital
project designers or engineers, mass-produced artworks, reproductions of original artworks, or
landscape architecture except where these elements are designed by a professional visual artist
and/or are an integral part of the artwork by the artist. Art and Murals on private property outside
of public view via public right-of-way and funded with private dollars, do not need approval from
the PAAB. Public art is not intended to be visualized solely in a magazine, flier, or poster, but
rather visual from public rights-of-way.
Recommendation
Approve the Ordinance.
Budgetary Impact
There should be no budgetary impact.
