The City of Dania Beach has successfully worked with Staffing Connection for four years, receiving excellent service,
continuity in employees, and affordable rates(no rate increase had been requested during these years). Staffing
Connection has honored our request to give Dania Beach residents first priority in hiring and currently the majority of the
guards are Dania Beach residents. There are limited providers of this service, and rates among the providers are
competitive. The rates are impacted by localized hiring demographics. While we can piggy back on the City of Tamarac
bid/RFP process, we are not able to get the same bill rate without reducing our current guards' current pay rate, which will
likely result in losing these valuable workers.We have opted to accept a renewal term that is consistent with the City of
Sunrise, will allow us to maintain current workers, and continue the level of safety our community has enjoyed for the last
four years.

DATE: May 10, 2006
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION: CROSSING GUARD CONTRACT
Our current contract with Staffing Connection for crossing guard services will expire
August 2006. We have enjoyed excellent service from this firm, they have honored our
request to give Dania Beach residents preference in employment (seven of the twelve
• guards on staff are Dania Beach residents) and they have not raised our rates for three
years. Our bill rate is currently $11.97 hourly. We have the option of"piggy backing"
on the RFQ done by the City of Tamarac, the City of Sunrise has also "piggybacked" on
this RFQ. The City of Tamarac bill rate is $9.60 hourly (paying the employees
minimum wage), the City of Sunrise contracts with a bill rate of$12.58 (paying our staff
$8.50).
The estimated worked hours per year are 5760. If we align with Tamarac, we could save
approximately $17,000. However, it is my recommendation that we do NOT take this
route, and instead align with the Sunrise contract. I ask your support of the attached
resolution. My recommendation is based on the following:
1) The lower rate we will reduce the pay of workers who have been consistent,
reliable performers for over three years. The reduction is $2.10 hourly.
2) We will likely lose the employees we have (7 are Dania Beach residents).
3) Paying minimum wage for employees charged with safe guarding school children
in high traffic areas is not a smart move. The pool of quality, reliable personnel
willing to work for minimum wage dwindles. (The demographics of the City of
Tamarac are significantly different from those in Dania, this impacts the pool of
mature, responsible applicants from which to hire).

for the minimum wage change effective May 2, 2005 will be S8.92_
We are happy to honor this rate from October 1, 2005 Uuu

12 months prior to September 1st of that year.
I have sent to you as an attachment to this letter, the Employment
Law update and what the Florida minimum wage amendment meant to
you and to Staffing Connection. "Failure to adjust the minimum wages
of its employees poses serious consequences for employers_"
Thauk you for your help and we look forward to our continued
Working relationship.
Sincerely,

I Employment Law Update
What Ths Florida Minimum Wage Amendment Means For Your Business
On election day, November 2,2004, Florida voters voted in favor of a constftutional amendment to increase the
minimum wage statewide.The minimum wage,currently$5.15/hour,will be Increased to$6.151hour on May 2,
2005(6 months after its enactment on election day),Additionally,on September 30, 2005. and every following
September 30th,the minimum wage will be adjusted to reflect the rate of inflation during the 12 months prior to
September 1 st of that year.This adjustment, however,can only be to increase the minimum wage. Therefore, if
the rate of inflation is negative,the minimum wage will not be reduced accordingly.The task of calculating the
yearly adjustments for the minimum wage has been charged to the Florida Agency for Workforce Innovation.The
Agency will likely use the consumer price Index to calculate the minimum wage, although the Agency is permitted
to use an index calculated by the U.S.Department of Labor.The Agency will publish each adjusted minimum
wage and the new wage will take effect on January 1st following the September calculation. Failure to adjust the
minimum wages of its employees poses serious consequenoes for employers.The constitutional amendment
specifically provides for the right of an employee or the Florida Attorney General to file a lawsuit, including a class
action suit,to recover any wrongfully withheld wages. The amendment allows employees to recover double the
difference between the amount they were paid and the amount to which they were entitled, plus reasonable
attorneys fees and costs.The amendment also prohibits employers from retaliating against employees for
exercising their rights under the amendment,therefore, employees may also seek relief outside of monetary
damages,including injunctive relief and reinstatement of employment if the employee has been terminated in
retaliation for exercising any of the protected rights-Additionally,the employer is subject to fines imposed by the
State,up to and including$1,000,00 per violation.Employers must take all necessary steps to ensure compliance
with the new amendment by May 2,2005, Although the increase in wages may have a tremendous financial
impact on Florida employers,the impact of the wage increase is slight in comparison to the impact of the potential
fines and litigation costs imposed on employers who fail to comply.
"Failure to adjust the minimum wages of its employees poses serious
consequences for employers."
