G SUBJECT: Evaluation Appraisal Report (EAR) Revisions In March 22, 2005, the City Commission adopted the City of Dania Beach Evaluation and Appraisal Report ("'EAR'S. On June 30, 2005, the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA) complimented the City on "making significant progress in evaluating the Comprehensive Plan". At the same time, DCA also indicated additional information was required regarding utilities, affordable housing, capital improvements, and compliance with recent changes to state and regional plans. After several meetings with DCA staff, the EAR was revised and transmitted to DCA in December 2005. DCA responded on January 3, 2006 that they cannot begin their review until the recent revisions have been reviewed by the City Commission. The newest document, with added language underlined and deleted language struck- thFeagh, is attached for your review and approval. DCA's interpretation of EAR requirements (and the New Growth Management Act) continues to be a work-in-progress. Based on this, I would not be surprised if DCA requires even more EAR revisions beyond the scope of their original review. RECOMMENDATION Approval. STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS "Dedicated to making Florida a better place to call home" JEB BUSH THADDEUS L.COHEN,AIA Governor Secretary June 30, 2005 The Honorable Anne Castro Mayor, City of Dania Beach j 100 West Dania Beach Boulevard Dania Beach,Florida 33004 RE: City of Dania Beach Adopted Evaluation and Appraisal Report Resolution No. 2005-010 Dear Mayor Castro: On April 6, 2005,the Department received the adopted Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) for the City of Dania Beach. The Department has completed its 90-Day Sufficiency Review of the adopted report and has determined that it does not meet the requirements of iChapter 163,Part II, Florida Statutes(F.S.), for sufficiency as defined in Subsection 163.3191(6), F.S. Please note that pursuant to Section 163.3187(6), F.S., the City of Dania Beach may amend the comprehensive plan only for a period of one year from the date of this letter. If the one year period has expired and the report has not yet been determined to be sufficient, Dania Beach is prohibited from amending its comprehensive plan until such time as the EAR has been found sufficient by the Department with the exception of plan amendments meeting the requirements of Section 163.3187(1)(b), F.S.). Additionally, please note that a provision of SB 360, effective July 1, 2005, requires all the amendments necessary to update the comprehensive plan, based on the EAR, to be adopted during a single amendment cycle within eighteen months after the EAR is determined to be sufficient. The City's EAR makes significant progress in evaluating the adopted Comprehensive Plan as part of the EAR process. However, the EAR needs to be revised and strengthened to correct the deficiencies identified in the attached report. The report provides guidance regarding how the EAR should be revised to address the identified sufficiency issues. The Department's finding of insufficiency should not be seen as a reflection upon the overall quality of the EAR. 2555 SHUMARD OAK BOULEVARD • TALLAHASSEE, FLORIDA 32399-2100 Phone: (850) 488-8466/Suncom 278-8466 FAX: (850) 921 -0781 /Suncom 291 -0781 Internet address: http://www.dco.state.fl.us CRITICAL STATE CONCERN FIELD OFFICE COMMUNITY PLANNING EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT HOUSING&COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 2796 Overseas Highway,Suite 212 2555 Shumard Oak Boulevard 2555 Shumord Oak Boulevard 2555 Shumard Oak Boulevard Marathon, i. 33050.2227 Tallahassee,FL 32399-2100 Tallahassee,FL 32399.2100 Tallahassee,FL 32399.2100 (305)289.2407 (850)488.2356 (850)413.9969 (850)488-7956 i The Honorable Anne Castro June 30, 2005 Page 2 It should be possible to resolve these outstanding issues expeditiously and in a straightforward manner.

Hubbard,AICP Director, Division of Community Planning VJH/ck cc: Mr. Laurence Leeds, Director, Department of Community Development Ms. Carolyn A. Dekle, Executive Director, South Florida Regional Planning Council I c � 90-DAY SUFFICIENCY REVIEW EVALUATION AND APPRAISAL REPORT CITY OF DANIA BEACH ADOPTED EAR I. SUFFICIENCY ISSUES A. The financial feasibility of providing needed infrastructure to achieve and maintain adopted levels of service standards and sustain concurrency through capital improvements, as well as the ability to address infrastructure backlogs and meet the demands of growth and public facilities [Section 163.31911 (2)(c)]: The EAR provides limited discussion on the status of infrastructure throughout the City. The text generally states that additional service capacity for parks, solid waste, drainage/stormwater management and sanitary sewer is not needed because the City is under capacity. Further, the EAR text states that funds to increase water treatment plant capacity to meet projected need have been identified and engineering and planning is currently underway. Also, the Capital Improvements Element(CIE)planning time frame is out of date and the City should analyze the need for it and the Capital Improvement Schedule to be updated through 2010. The City should use the above population projections to analyze whether the City can maintain the adopted level of service standards within the plan for the projected population over the five-year planning timeframe. Recommendation The EAR should be revised or augmented with data and analysis to: o Identify the funding source and approximate costs of any water treatment plant upgrades needed to maintain adopted levels of service. © Evaluate whether there are current or anticipated deficiencies in the availability of public facility infrastructure for potable water in the next five years and through the planning timeframe. 1 a Evaluate whether the level of service standards for all concurrenc;y facilities, for the period under evaluation, have been maintained. B. An assessment of whether plan objectives within each element, as they relate to major issues, have been achieved, and whether unforeseen and unanticipated changes in circumstances have resulted in problems and opportunities with respect to major issues in each element [Section 163.3191 (2)(g)]: The EAR included a brief summary of the elements but with no particular problems or opportunities noted. The EAR included a brief summary of plan objectives as they relate to major issues but no background assessment was provided concerning plan objectives as they relate to major issues. An affordable housing discussion based on the 2000 US i Census is included in the EAR. The City notes that it provides more affordable housing on a percentage basis than other local governments in Broward County, Recommendation The EAR should be revised or augmented with data and analysis to: ® Identify whether the existing plan objectives within each element, as they relate to the major issues,have been met and specific remedies should be suggested if they have not been met; ® Identify how the plan objectives and policies may or should be changed to address the additional identified affordable housing need; ■ Provide further clarification concerning the affordable housing issue:justify how 15%of the proposed 1000 units fulfill the housing need. C. Relevant changes to the state comprehensive plan,the requirement of this part, , the minimum criteria contained in Chapter 9J-5,F.A.C., and the regional strategic policy plan.The identification of any actions or corrective measures, including whether plan amendments are anticipated to address the major issues identified and analyzed in the report. Such identification shall include, as appropriate, new population projections, new revised planning timeframes, a revised future conditions map or map series, an updated capital improvements element and any new and revised goals, objectives and policies for major issues identified in each element. This paragraph shall not require the submittal of the plan amendments with the evaluation and appraisal report. [Section 163.3191 (2)(f) and (i),F.S.] The EAR did not identify changes needed in the plan to address statutory requirements such as For Intensity Standards In Non-Residential Land Use Categories. Recommendation The EAR should be revised or augmented with data and analysis to: ® Identify intensity standards for the non-residential land use categories and include them in the EAR or as an EAR based amendment. II. 2005 LEGISLATIVE CHANGES TO CHAPTER 163,PART II,F.S. As of July 1, 2005, the provisions of Senate Bill 360 amending Chapter 163, F.S., relative to the preparation of the EAR became effective. Dania Beach should note these changes, which include, for example, additional EAR evaluation topics, water supply evaluation directives, mandates for the adoption of EAR-based amendments (must be adopted in a single cycle) and provisions affecting other components of the comprehensive plan. The Dania Beach EAR should acknowledge the changes to Chapter 163, F.S., and commit to address them in the EAR-based amendments or at such time as the statute calls for them 2 to be met. The Department is preparing an advisory regarding compliance with the recently signed legislation. Local governments will be notified shortly of further requirements for adopted EARs created by this legislation.

The City includes a portion of ocean frontage in the east disconnected from the balance of the City. Dania Beach is one of 31 incorporated municipalities within Broward County. Dania Beach is situated south of the City of Fort Lauderdale, north of the City of Hollywood, and east of State Road 7/441. There are several major arterial roadways which transect the City north/south and east/west. The most significant highway is Interstate 95 in the western portion of the City. The other major roadways within the City include US1, Dania Beach Boulevard, Griffin Road, Stirling Road, Sheridan Street and the eastern terminus of Interstate 595 that touches the northeast tip of the City, which intersects with State Road '84. The City has several hotels which serve primarily the Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport. The City is currently experiencing significant residential development growth in both the east and west areas of the .City. Some of this may be attributed to the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) and Local Activity Center (LAC). ; The CRA includes Old Griffin Road on the north to Sheridan Street on the south, the Florida East Coast (FEC) railroad tracks on the west and Gulfstream Road on the east. The LAC is a subset of the CRA. Purpose i The purpose of the Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) for the City of Dania Beach's Comprehensive Plan is to look back since the last major comprehensive plan update plan (1999) and evaluate how well the plan serves the City. It is a time to consider what kinds of changes have taken place and how the plan could be modified to reflect those changes. Specifically, the purpose of the evaluation process is to: ® Identify major issues for the community; ® Review past actions of the local government in implementing the plan since the last EAR; o Assess the degree to which plan objectives have been achieved; o Assess both successes and shortcomings of the plan; o Identify ways that the plan should be changed: i Revised Dec 2005 (Added Language is underlined;Deleted Language is stFUGk through) 2 o Respond to changing conditions and trends affecting the local community, o Respond to the need for new data, o Respond to changes in state requirement regarding growth management and development, o Respond to changes in regional plans. a Ensure effective intergovernmental coordination. Public Participation Process i On March 18, 2004 Community Development staff, including the Director and Principal Planner, together with the City's Planning Consultant, met to discuss the EAR process. It was determined that these three individuals would work as a team in the preparing the EAR. At this meeting potential city-wide issues were discussed. On April 28, 2004 the first public meeting was held as a public workshop with the City Commission. An advertisement was placed in the local newspaper nine (9) business days prior to the meeting and notices were mailed to over 40 individuals including neighborhood, civic, homeowner and condominium associations, the City's Chamber of Commerce, Main Street Committee, City Advisory Boards, and City Department Heads. At this public workshop a preliminary list of issues were identified. . On May 25, 2004 a second public meeting was held with agency representatives. An advertisement was placed in the local newspaper eight (8) days prior to the meeting and notices were sent to 19 individuals from state, regional, county and municipal levels of government. At this public meeting the issues list was discussed and expanded. Visioning The visioning process for the City of Dania Beach was iconducted at the public meeting on April 28, 2004. The meeting was organized by the Community Development Department and led by the Mayor. The process was a publicly advertised, public meeting in which member of the public, staff and the City Commission discussed the Comprehensive Plan and issues affecting the City. A copy of the minutes from this meeting is available. At the public meeting the City Commission identified several important issues in two primary categories. The first is econonl is and business development (Downtown redevelopment, utility infrastructure, retention of Revised Dec 2005 (Added Language is underlined; Deleted Language is 6twGk thFOUgh) 3 the marine industry, and beach re-nourishment). The second category is �• residential (neighborhood protection, preservation, improvements and amenities). ANALYZING THE ISSUES New Population Estimates The 1999 Future Land Use Element projected population for the year 2000 to be 18,783 persons. The 2000 U.S. Census counted �20,061 persons. This is a difference of 1,278 persons or a 6% increase from what was projected in 1998. According to Bureau of Economic and Business Research (BEBR) at the University of Florida, as of April 1, 2004, the total population of the City was 28,080. The change between the 2000 census and the April 2003 BEBR results is 8,019 people, or a 40% increase. Most of this increase can be attributed to the annexation of land into the City in 1,2001. In 2004, it was estimated that approximately 7,000 persons reside in the annexation area. Broward County and the City projects the City of Dania Beach to contain 33,000 residents by 2010, 40,000 by 2015 and 43,800 esidents at build out in 2025. Changes in Land Area The State of Florida and Broward County encouraged municipalities surrounding unincorporated areas of the county to annex such lands. In 2001 the City of Dania Beach annexation 2.18 square miles of land (See Annexation History map) into the city. The majority of the 2001 annexation area is located east of State Road 7/Route 441. Today there are no unincorporated areas adjacent to the City; therefore no additional land will be annexed into the City. The City wants to encourage quality commercial development (and redevelopment) in the recently annexed areas. To do this the City has rezoned annexed commercial land to a city commercial zoning district. The City wants to encourage commercial uses compatible with existing residential uses. Vacant Land for Future Development � Revised Dec 2005 (Added Language is underlined;Deleted Language is stFusk thmugh) 4 o The total City acreage is 5,395. Approximately 1 ,125 acres or 20/o of the total city is undeveloped. Much of the undeveloped land consists of properties which have limited development potential. These include the FPL Griffin Road Power Plant, submerged lands located north of the FPL Plant, and high voltage electrical lines which run throughout the city. Excluding these properties, total vacant land is estimated, at 10 — 12 % of the city. The 2001 annexation area is located west of Ravenswood Road is a previously developed suburban area; therefore roadways exist to service this area. Water and sewer service is provided by Broward County in this area. Demands of Growth on Infrastructure The recent designation of the CRA in the eastern section of the City will encourage commercial and residential redevelopment ialong the US 1 corridor. The Local Activity Center (LAC) land use plan designation permits 2,465 new residential units in the City, most of which will be along Dania Beach Boulevard and US 1. The City has already begun planning for infrastructure improvements in the CRA (See "Conclusion" at bottom of page 8). RECREATION AND OPEN SPACE: The City has sufficient park acreage exceeding the requirements of the Comprehensive Plan (3 acres of parks per 1 ,000 residents). The City has a total of 278.1 acres of parks and open space, which equals approximately 10 acres per 1,000 residents. B 2010 the projected population of the City will be 33,006 residents. This Y p J P p Y will require 8.4 acres per 1,000 residents, thus exceeding the 3 acres per 1 ,000 required by the Comprehensive Plan. Recreation and Open Space I Year Population Adopted LOS Pro'ected LOS 2010 33,000 3.0 acres / 1,000 8.4 acres / 1 ,000 2015 40,000 3.0 acres / 1,000 6.9 acres SOLID WASTE: The adopted solid waste level of service standard identified in the City of Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan is 8.9 pounds per dwelling unit per day. Solid waste generated in the City of Dania Beach is disposed of by Reuter Recycling of Florida, Inc. (Reuter) pursuant Revised Dec 2005 (Added Language is underlined;Deleted Language is strask-thmugh) 5 i to the terms of a contract that expires in 2022. Reuter guarantees disposal capacity within the waste management family of companies for the City's waste. Reuter's has a resource recovery facility and transfer station located in Pembroke Pines, Florida. They also have rights to use facilities at Recycle America at Pompano Beach, Florida for curb side recyclables and Central Landfill at Pompano Beach, Florida for disposal of solid waste. Commercial pick-up is conducted via private contracts. By 2010 the projected population of the City will be 33,000. The City's contract with Reuter recycling of Florida, Inc., which expires in 2022, will meet the needs of the City through 2010. DRAINGE/STORMWATER MANAGEMENT: Standards for drainage facilities adopted in the City of Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Code are listed in 1-5 below: 1. Road Protection — Residential streets within the City's service area (east of Ravenswood Road) and the Broward County service area (w. of Ravenswood Road) with rights-of-way less than fifty (50) feet wide to have crown elevations no lower than the elevation for the respective area depicted on the ten (10) year Flood Criteria Map. Streets in rights-of-way greater than fifty (50) feet wide to have an ultimate edge of pavement no lower than the elevation for the respective area depicted on the 10-year Flood Criteria Map. I 2. Buildings — Within the City's service area the lowest floor elevation shall not be lower than the elevation published on the Broward County 100 Year Flood Elevation Map or 18 inches above the adjacent crown of road for residential and 6 inches above the adjacent crown of road for commercial/industrial. Within the Broward County service area the lowest floor elevation is to be no lower than the elevation for the respective area depicted on the 100 Year Flood Elevation Map or the FEMA Base Flood Elevation, whichever is higher. 3. Storm Sewers — Within the City's service area storm sewers shall be designed using the Florida Department of Transportation Zone 10 rainfall curves. Within the Broward County service area the design frequency minimum is three-year rainfall intensity as identified by the State Department of Transportation Zone 10 rainfall curves. 4. Flood Plain Routing — Within the City's service area modified SOS routing method is established by the South Florida Water Management District (S.F.W.M.D.) "Basis of Review." Within the Broward County service area �• calculated flood elevations based on the 10-year and 100-year return Revised Dec 2005 (Added Language is underlined;Deleted Language is strUsk th ) 6 i I i frequency rainfall of three day duration shall not exceed the corresponding elevations of the 10-year Flood Criteria Map and the 100-Year Flood Elevation Map. 5. Best Management — Within the City's service area efforts shall be utilized to use best management practices to reduce pollutant discharge. Within the Broward County service area prior to discharge to surface or groundwater, BMP's will be used to reduce pollutant loading from stormwater runoff. These standards are anticipated to remain and meet the needs of the City through 2010. TRAFFIC CIRCULATION: The entire city (including the ICRA) is located with the Broward County Transportation Concurrency Exemption Area. The adopted peak hour level of service identified in the Land Development Code for arterial, collector and local roads is "D". The City does not plan or anticipate any change to the Broward County Transportation Concurrency Exemption Area, therefore, future traffic circulation levels through the year 2010 will be accommiodated by levels identified in the Comprehensive Plan. A Transportation Element was transmitted to DCA. Thel City revised the Element pursuant to DCA's ORC report and re-submitted for final review prior to adoption. After receipt of these final comments, the City will adopt the Element. POTABLE WATER: The City's Service area includes all areas east of Interstate 95. The current demand is 2.4 MGD within the service area. The South Florida Water Management District permitted withdrawal and design capacity of the water plant is 3.0 MGD. The City also has a contract with the City of Fort Lauderdale for an additional 0.3 MGD. The City of Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan projects an average daily demand to be 3.0 MGD in 2005 and 3.5 MGD in the yeah 2010. The City has initiated the process to upgrade the municipal water treatment plant capacity to 5.0 MGD. This improvement should be completed in 2006/2007. The City had completed the EPA and Health Department acceptance process for this improvement. Level of service standards are identified in the Comprehensive Plan and the Land Development Code. These levels will be analyzed and updated with the City's EAR based amendment following the adoption of the EAR. Revised Dec 2005 (Added Language is underlined;Deleted Language is stFUGk thmugh) 7 I I Within the Broward County service area (west of 1-95) 'Broward County shall continue to utilize the potable water demand rate for residential at 350 GPD per single family unit. Planning for additional capacity shall begin when 80 percent of the facility's Florida Department of Environmental Protection permitted capacity is required. Construction of additional county capacity and/or implementation of a conservation program shall begin when DPEP's permitted capacity will not meet current demands plus five years of anticipated growth. The City will be adopting a Water Supply Work Plan after South Florida Water Management District adopts their Water Supply Work Plan. The City anticipates incorporating a Water Supply Work Plan in an EAR based amendment which will occur following adoption of the EAR. The City will adopt an EAR-based amendment to update the Capital Improvement Element (CIE) Schedule for the time period 2005 - 2010. I The City's water treatment plant is being upgraded to 5.0 MGD. The cost of this. expansion is $5,136,000.00 and is being funded through the State Revolvinq Fund loan (SRF). The plant expansion is from 3.0 MGD to 5.0 MGD and will be completed by 2007. i Potable Water Demand Projections for Future Years Year Population Demand Plant Capacity 2010 33,0000) 3.3 MGD 15.0 MGD 2015 40,000 4.0 MGD 15.0 MGD I 1 100gallons/da /ca ita The above table demonstrates an adequate supply of potable water will be available to the community. SANITARY SEWER: The City's Service area includes all areas east of Interstate 95. According to the City of Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan, the adopted level of service for sanitary sewer is 100' gallons per day (GPD) per person. Sanitary sewer service within the City's service area is (provided under a Large User Agreement with the City of Hollywood. The City of Dania Beach collects and transmits wastewater to the I South Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant located in Hollywood. The regional plant capacity is 42 million gallons per day (42 . MGD). P I rsuant to recent consent mechanisms, the City of Hollywood is increasing their plant capacity to 50MGD by the end of 2005. Revised Dec 2005 (Added Language is underlined;Deleted Language is stwsk-thFOUgh) 8 i i i �. Based on a projected 2010 population of 23,000 in the City service area, the Comprehensive Plan requires a treatment capacity, of 2.3 MGD in 2010. Current 2005 available Dania Beach capacity is 4.2 MGD, exceeding the level of service in the comprehensive plan in both 2005 and 2010. Sanitary Sewer Demand Projections for Future Years Year Po ulation Demand Plant Ca acit 2010 33,000 3.3 MGD 4.2 MGD 2015 40,000 4.0 MGD 4.2 MGD 1 100gallons/da /ca ita I CONCLUSION: Additional service capacity for parks, solid waste, drainage/stormwater management and sanitary sewer will not be needed because the City is currently under capacity. Funds to increase water treatment plant capacity to meet projected needs have been identified and planning and engineering is currently underway. INTENSITY STANDARDS FDCA Staff has indicated in their sufficiency review of the EAR that the City's current Future Land Use Element does not include intensity standards for its non-residential future land use categories, which is required under Rule 9J-5.006(3)(c)7,. F.A.C. and Rule 163.3177(6)(aa), F.S. During the development of the EAR based amendments, the City will identify a non-residential intensity standard in accordance with the above rules. I It is likely that this intensity standard will be based 1upon a building coverage percentage and/or a floor-to-area ratio, also known as a Floor Area Ratio ("FAR"). Typical building coverage can range from 25% to 75%, depending on the type of development proposed. Also, floor-to-area ratios can range from 0.25 to over 2.0. In developing these intensity standards, the City will be sensitive to continuing the quality of development that the City has enioyed through its history. cit 's Local Activity Center LAC which is patterned after Broward The y y (LAC), County's, has been adopted as part of the City's Comprehensive Plan. Intensity standards for all LAC land uses are addressed in the Future Land Use Element and Future Land Use Map. Historically, this is how Broward County has successfully implemented this land use category. Revised Dec 2005 (Added Language is underlined;Deleted Language is stwGk thFOugh) j 9 i rib CONCURRENCY: Concurrency is addressed through the City's development review process. Recreation and open space is addressed at the time a property is platted or time of building permijt issuance if no platting is required. The City has a contract with Reuter Recycling facility which accommodates the existing and future solid waste needs of the City. Solid waste demand is reviewed based on the level of service standards identified in the Land Development Code prior to issuance of a building permit. New development is analyzed through the site plan review process to insure sufficient design capacity to sustain the adopted level of service for drainage as identified in the Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Code. The City is located in a transportation exception/urban infill area. Potable water and sanitary sewer demands are analyzed prior to issuance of a building permit based on the level of service standards identified in the Comprehensive Plan and the Land Development Code. The current sanitary sewer agreement with the City of Hollywood is adequate to meet the needs of the City. In addition, significant capacity is available at the City of Hollywood's treatment facility should the City have additional demand. Therefore through the City's Concurrency process adequate capacity is available through 2010. Affordable Housing Based on the 2000 Census, the median home value in Dania Beach was $114,000. This means half the homes were valued at less than $114,000. Also in 2000, the median rent in the City was $679 per month and rental units constituted 42% of the occupied housing units. The City figures are less than the county-wide median home value ($128,000) and county-wide median monthly rent ($1,246 per month). County-wide, 31% of occupied units were rental units. Based on the 2000 Census, the city provides more than its "fair share" of affordable housing, and I more affordable housing on a percentage basis than many cities in Broward County. Broward County currently defines home-ownership affordable housing as $229,000 or less for a new home. I In the City of Dania Beach there are many opportunities for multi-family housing within the community. However, At the same time, there is a dwindling supply of vacant residential land to serve the future needs of the community. In a large part, the Local Activity Center established downtown will be able to accommodate future growth by introducing 2,465 Revised Dec 2005 (Added Language is underlined;Deleted Language is stfask ihfe ) 10 multi-family residential units while taking into account the limited land (� available in the city. Staff estimates that at least 1000 new heysing units wall b GOMpleteed eveF the next five years (2005 2010). The City will adopt� an F=AR. based 0 Broward County estimates the City's total population will increase by almost 5,000 persons between 2005 and 2010. Based on an average household size of 2.85 persons per household (2000 Census), the additional population will require 1,754 additional dwelling units. To maintain the City's commitment to affordable housing, the city will adopt an EAR-based amendment (Housing Element) projecting that 15% of the additional dwelling units will be affordable housing. The City will also adopt amendments supporting: (a) Preservation of existing home ownership (subdivided) mobile home parks (There are currently over 1,300 home-ownership mobile homes in the City). (b) Maintaining at least 490 affordable housing rental vouchers. Location of Development The development seen by the City in the last five (5) years was, to a large extent, anticipated by the City's Comprehensive plan. This is evident by the relatively small number of land use changes requested in the last five (5) years. The City's Comprehensive Plan was amended in 2004 to create the LAC land use plan designation within a portion of the CRA. The LAC provides for up to 2,465 residential units, up to 800 hotel rooms, amd up to 500,000 square feet of retail space within LAC boundaries. Thei Comprehensive Plan also provides: 1) Available residential flex and reserve units for residential redevelopment occurring along the US 1 Corridor (outside of the LAC) as well as infill residential development , in the western annexation areas. Revised Dec 2005 (Added Language is underlined;Deleted Language is stfask thFeugh) 11 I 2) Available flex acreage (20% Industrial to Commercial rule) to provide ifor quality, compatible, tax-base intensive non-residential development in areas having an "Industrial" land use plan designation. Based on the above, it is not anticipated that major future land use plan map amendments will be necessary to accommodate future development during the next five years. Coordination of School Locations The three (3) public schools located in Dania Beach are Olsen Middle School (constructed in 1954 and expanded in 1991), Dania Elementary School (constructed in 1958 with new buildings added in 11971 and 1992), and Collins Elementary School (constructed in 1957 with one new building added in 1976 and one in 1985). Two of these schools, Olsen Middle and Dania Elementary, are located east of US 1 in the City's South East neighborhood. Collins Element is located in the City's Northwest neighborhood. All three schools are located east of Interstate 95. `• Currently the schools located within the City exceed capacity due in large part to the classroom size amendment. However, the number of existing and anticipated students can be accommodated with modifications to the existing schools. While much of the future development within the City 'iis anticipated to occur along US1 and east of US1 along Dania Beach Boulevard, the form of development (i.e. high density, mid-rise residential) typically generates few school age children. Therefore, the City can accommodate addition students in this area with modifications to existing schools. In addition, the City entered into a tri-party agreement with Broward County and Broward County School Board to agree to require payment of a student station fee for each of the 2,465 LAC units to be constructed. School impact fees are also required for new residential development outside the LAC. Public schools are permitted in the following Future Land Use categories: all Residential Land Use, Commercial Land Use, Downtown Development District Commercial Land Use, Employment Center Land Use, Community Facilities Land Use and Industrial Land Use. Schools are considered an amenity to a neighborhood, however, there are associated traffic impacts during the peak times when parents of drop off and pick up students. Revised Dec 2005 (Added Language is underlined;Deleted Language is stFask thFOugh) 12 The City signed the State mandated Interlocal Agreement with the Broward County School Board, which requires the City to allow a School Board representative to participate in the Local Planning Agency (LPA) discussion regarding residential density changes. The City also participates in Public School Facility Planning meetings that occur once every three months. The City leases classroom space to facilitate City operated after-school and summer programs. The City also has a forty (40) year lease to use land owned by the School Board (Meli Park) as a community park and neighborhood center. The Comprehensive Plan further) encourages the collation of facilities such as libraries, parks and community centers with public schools to the extent practical and financially feasible. The Broward School Board staff uses school enrollment forecasts to project future school demands, which are based on annual residential development projections provided by the City. The County also provides the School Board with their population forecasts (which staff has reviewed and confirmed), and school enrollment forecasts. • Analyzing Other Local Issues The issues identified by the City Commission at the April 28, 2004 public workshop and as discussed in the final scoping meeting on May 25, 2004 with state, regional, county and local officials are as follows: • Neighborhood Protection • Neighborhood Improvement and Redevelopment • Downtown/CRA Redevelopment • Bike Paths/Bike Lanes • Dania Beach Boulevard/US 1 • Beach Re-nourishment • Protection and support of Marine Related Uses • Establish additional Community Facilities Revised Dec 2005 (Added Language is underlined;Deleted Language is stwsk threugh) 13 cn O a) U Z c O Co 0 >_ >_ W cu CL M U fC 0 C O C V O >% E � a) U 0 U p U Z00 .509 Q0 Qm U) S F- Z — ZO n �= F= > > a a a)-0 > te) V O U +r U p U p o a) CL a) Q V ON Oa Oa. 0 N Z W H z O M ® > > O ® W > Q) J w OU Q ; o 0 O O z z w IL �.
