Citizen Comments James Hurst, 222 SE 1" Street, addressed the need for a speed hump on SE 1st Street. He indicated this is a life safety issue because there is much speeding from Federal Highway to 3Td Avenue. He received the petition process from the City and will distribute it throughout the neighborhood. He noted the streets are currently being repaired and this would be the perfect time to address the situation. He is confident he will have enough signatures to validate the petition. He indicated this is a huge liability issue for the City and we needed to act before we have a critical situation. Commissioner McElyea remarked he has recommended this for many years. He noted we need engineering to do it right so that we are not sued. He suggested the City Manager and City Attorney handle this. Mayor Castro stated she would refer this to the Neighborhood Improvement Advisory Board because they are compiling their list of recommendations, and suggested they could help with the petition process. She encouraged BSO Chief Cowart to have deputies in the area during the most critical hours. City Manager Pato commented the Commission has the authority to circumvent the petition procedure and direct the City to move forward. • Commissioner McElyea motioned to move forward with the request; seconded by Commissioner Bertino. Commissioner Bertino commented that 2"d Street has the same problem and he would also like to have it studied. Commissioner Anton would like to see a BSO report and comments from the Fire Department before anything is done. He would also like a report from Public Services to see what type of devise would be installed. He asked that staff bring information forward at the next Commission meeting. City Manager Pato responded we would not be able to install a traffic calming device without a traffic study to determine the proper placement of the devices. Commissioner Bertino clarified the motion was to get the process started, not to begin the installation of the traffic calming devices. A study is the first step in the process. The motion carried on the following 5-0 Roll Call vote: Commissioner Anton Yes Vice-Mayor Flury Yes Commissioner Bertino Yes Mayor Castro Yes Commissioner McElyea Yes Minutes of Regular Meeting 2 Dania Beach City Commission Tuesday,January 10,2006—7:00 p.m. Commissioner Bertino requested that Chief Cowart also look at 2nd Street while conducting the study. Richard Judge, 112 NW 4th Avenue, addressed the Commission regarding a $3,000 water bill he sustained because his backflow meter broke during the hurricane. The Water Department advised they could adjust the sewer bill, but not the water which would be $1,500. Vice-Mayor Flury commented Mr. Judge needed to speak to the City Manager to try to work it out before addressing the Commission. Commissioner Bertino remarked the City Manager has the power to make the adjustment, but also suggested contacting his insurance company. City Manager Pato clarified he does not have the authority to adjust the water, only the sewer. Commissioner Bertino recommended the City Manager meet with Mr. Judge and bring a recommendation to the next meeting. George Jason, 4549 SW 37'h Avenue, noted he spoke with the Red Cross about making Meli Park a hurricane shelter and they advised him that they only use schools.as hurricane shelters. The Red Cross suggested that perhaps Meli Park could be used as a holding center after hurricanes. His other issue is the zip code changes in 33312 and 33314. He indicated the Broward League of Cities is getting involved with helping cities change their zip codes. Mayor Castro commented the Post Office has been contacted for information and the National League of Cities is also involved in this issue. She indicated she asked the Post Office for a substation in the western part of the City. Commissioner Bertino would like the City Manager to check with the Red Cross for the criteria for holding facilities. He suggested that we consider the requirements for CW Thomas Park and Meli Park. Mayor Castro questioned if the buildings would be sufficient in size for a holding area, and wondered if there would be enough private personal space for individuals and families. She suggested hotels be used for holding facilities after hurricanes. 7.

City Attorney Ansbro read the title of Resolution#2006-002. Gerry Knight, attorney representing the applicant, advised the site plan was approved by the Commission in August 2005. The site plan modification is to relocate two residential buildings to the east and relocate the clubhouse to the west. This is an improved site plan that will provide better views for the units being moved to the canal. He indicated they are starting the sales process and would like to resolve this issue. Laurence Leeds, Director of Community Development, advised there is no change to the original plan except the relocation of the buildings. Everything meets code; however, they may need to add an additional dumpster. Mayor Castro opened the Public Hearing. Rosemary Vanwitzenburg, 4535 SW 30th Way, noted she and her family object to the change because they built their home so they could enjoy the view of the canal.

Candace Shipley Schultz, 4510 SW 30th Avenue, commented she will now be sandwiched between this development and the proposed Fire Station. She objects to the change.

Commissioner Anton agreed with the residents and stated he would not support a change. Attorney Knight wanted to respond to the comments and noted the modified site plan meets all City Code requirements. They believe this is a better site plan for the property. Isaac Toladonno, developer of the project, noted they had about 1,700 buyers trying to make reservations for these units and they requested this change. They also had a major cost to develop new architectural drawings which have been submitted to the City. They are 60-90 days from pulling construction permits. The old site plan had four buildings and a clubhouse on the water; the modified plan is for six buildings on the water. He noted nobody can guarantee a view to anyone or that a change would never occur. A lot of landscaping would remain and the townhouses will range from $600,000 - $850,000 and will increase the value of everyone's property. He noted they do not have any objections to the additional staff recommendations. Minutes of Regular Meeting 8 Dania Beach City Commission Tuesday, January 10,2006—7:00 p.m. Vice-Mayor Flury remarked she was surprised that no one objected when the project was initially approved. She will not approve the modified site plan. Mayor Castro commented she supports the request because it meets City Codes and requires no variances. She indicated we are telling somebody that owns property and has a proposed development that meets City Code that they cannot develop because we do not like the aesthetic value of it. She is not sure this is what we want to do to people's property rights. Commissioner Anton motioned to deny Resolution 42006-002; seconded by Vice-Mayor Flury.

He suggested we get as many people as possible to attend the meeting. He remarked that bulk trash is being put out and suggested the new schedule be included on the water bill. He hoped we would not cite people because of the schedule changes. He asked the City Attorney the status of A-Z Video. City Attorney Ansbro responded we would be bringing changes to the existing Adult Use Ordinance to the Commission so that we could put in place an ordinance already adopted three years ago that would amortize out that use and A-Z Video would have to leave the area. He indicated we should have it under control this spring and they would have to vacate. 10.2 Commissioner Bertino Commissioner Bertino commented when the Mayor goes to Tallahassee to testify against FP&L she should address that the poles need to be replaced and/or reinstalled. He indicated the roof at the Women's Club needs to be redone. City Manager Pato responded there was an insurance problem, but it has been resolved. He indicated it has been difficult to get a roofer because it is such a small job. Commissioners Bertino and McElyea suggested he contact Bartley to repair the roof. 10.3 Commissioner McElyea Commissioner McElyea noted the cable companies are running new cables and leaving the old ones dangling and not attached. He suggested the COPS patrol get the pole numbers and call the cable company to have them repaired. 10.4 Vice-Mayor Flury Vice-Mayor Flury brought up the issue of the street lights on Federal Highway. She indicated it is embarrassing and we need to address the situation. She questioned if we needed an engineering study to tell us what to do. Commissioner McElyea commented we need someone with good common sense that knows electricity, such as the company on Ravenswood Road. Dominic Orlando, Public Services Director, explained that FP&L provides power and replaces the lamps, and we are responsible for everything else, including the sensors. We hire Florida Electric to do the maintenance. Federal Highway is different from all other lighting fixtures in the City. He suggested we replace what needs to be replaced to meet FP&L requirements and renegotiate our maintenance agreement so that FP&L does the maintenance, as with the other light fixtures. i Minutes of Regular Meeting 10 Dania Beach City Commission Tuesday, January 10,2006—7:00 p.m. • City Manager Pato commented we would try to resolve the problem and bring a proposal forward which will include funding requirements.

Commissioner McElyea commented that FP&L has an engineering firm and would probably work with us to resolve the issue. Mr. Orlando commented the issue was responsibility, and we have resolved that. Our maintenance contractor thought the problem was FP&L, but that issue has been resolved. Vice-Mayor Flury wants something in writing at the next meeting on how to fix the problem, including costs. 10.5 Mayor Castro South Florida East Coast Corridor (SFECC) Transit Study Martin Luther King, Jr., Events Economic Redevelopment Kick Off Event Mayor Castro noted the Seniors need an additional $5,000 in funding and asked the Commission to approve the additional funds.
