The attached memo from Bonnie Temchuk is self explanatory and I would urge you to review it right away since this will come up at tomorrow nights Commission Meeting for discussion. 7 1 The fact that this could become a costly venture for the City it needs your input and direction. i "Broward's First City" `V' :r l�:uii.� i�cach Boulc�ard Dania Beach. Florida 33004 Phone: (954) 924-3600 www.ci.dania-beach.tl.Lis CITY OF DANIA BEACH MEMORANDUM TO: Ivan Pato City Manager FROM: Bonnie Temchuk Assistant to the City Manager Grants and Special Projects DATE: June 20, 2003 SUBJECT: SW 45 Street Park Site Requirements of County After reviewing the documents sent over by Scott Park, there are quite a few concerns and issues that must be addressed prior to securing this site through Green Space Bond money. I have attached and highlighted the area's of concern. Interlocal Agreement: 1. Conceptual Resource Management Plan —this plan must describe the proposed use of the site and the manner in which the City proposes to preserve and enhance. a. This will require research of what type of vegetation is presently on site, the manner in which we will remove exotic's and what type of native's will be planted. b. We will need to establish how the area is to be secured, when the public will have access, and how we will ensure that no sporting activites will be played on this site (if we wanted to do a fishing tournament, I would think we would need a special exception inserted into the agreement, since fishing is a sporting activity. c. Where the money will come from to perform all activities stated in the Plan and the timeframe in which they will be done. 2. 3.1 Conceptual Resource Plan must be included in City's 5 year CIP in accordance with the timeline contained in the Plan. 3. 4.2 We must record a Conservation Easement in a form acceptable to the County Attorney's Office. 4. 4.4.1 We have one year to prepare a Final Resource Management Plan and submit for approval to the LPAAB and then filed with the County. a. This plan will have to be very detailed, giving exact counts or percentages • of vegetation, plans of removal, replanting of natives, how we propose to get exotic's off of site. This plan will have to be done by a professional landscape environmentalist to ensure that all components of the Plan will be outlined. The County will help with technical assistance, but the actual preparation of the plan will be the burden of the City. Approximate costs • of the plan will be $10,000 to $25,000. b. Under no circumstances shall organized sports be a permissible activity on the Site. We would need to get clarification to see if fishing would be a sports activity, if so we would not be able to hold tournaments, family fun days or anything that would be organized on this site. c. 4.15 The City agrees to initiate a land use plan map amendment. 5. 5.1 If the City should decide to contract out the site management we must give the County 60 days notice for their approval. 6. 6.7 The City must submit an annual report to the County indicating all operations, enhancements and site development which occurred during the previous year for a period of 5 years. This will require additional personnel. 7. 8.4 If the City provides a resolution guaranteeing the money for the improvements to this site be placed in our CIP for the next 5 years and then fails to do so, the title of the property will be transferred back to the County. 8. DEED OF CONSERVATION EASEMENT— 1. We will retain the land and water of the property to it's natural, vegetative, hydrologic, scenic, open, agricultural or wooded condition and will retain such areas as suitable habitat for fish, plants or wildlife. 9. 3. —There are many conditions and activities that are prohibited as defined in this section. 10. 7. — If any of the conditions regarding the removal of exotic's replanting of • native, failure to comply with timeline, failure to continue to include money for this project in our 5 year CIP, etc, will allow enforcement by the County to remedy this situation and charge the city for all costs, including attorney's fees, administrative, etc. This includes the cost of restoring the site to the native vegetative and hydrologic condition required in the Plan. 11. 10. —We are required to maintain the site forever meaning that money will have to be budgeted on a yearly basis for exotic removal, upkeep of property, additional staff, specialist regarding native and exotic vegetation, etc. These are my concerns regarding the two documents. I believe the ability to acquire this property through the County Bond program will in fact be a very costly venture for the City, especially the first five years of ownership. • I COUNTY COMMISSION 27.
