4tINUTES 2 MARCH 26, 2002
REGULAR MEETING
Commissioner Bertino advised that a provision was placed in the Interlocal Agreement stating that the City of
Dania Beach would not fight the expansion of the airport and that the City would help the airport gain the
nway expansions, however, the City Commission has a fiduciary responsibility to fight for health and safety
issues to protect the citizens of Dania Beach.
Jay Field, Chair of the Dania Beach Airport Advisory Board and member of the Broward County Airport Task
Force Committee, suggested an informational campaign to notify cities further west of the airport to attend the
public hearing on April 15th. He reported that the Broward County Airport Task Force committee would be
meeting on a monthly basis and that a meeting would be held before the April 15th public hearing.
Attorney Brenda Chalifour, Airport Coordinator, advised that the expansion of the South Runway would be
exposing the residents of Dania Beach to adverse air pollution, noise, safety and quality of life issues and FAA
(Federal Aviation Administration) does not provide any assurances and protections. In the Draft DEIS, the FAA
has only provided one alternative, which is the expansion of the South Runway. The FAA states the need for
the South Runway to be equivalent to the North Runway in order to accommodate large or heavy aircraft with
approach speeds of 120 knots and wing spans of 79 feet or greater. FAA states that the availability of a second
full-length air carrier runway has become increasingly important to both the commercial air passenger carriers
and overnight delivery air cargo carriers. Attorney Chalifour advised that the capacity at the airport would
double with the expansion of the South Runway and that flights could occur 24 hours a day, 365 days a year
as capacity dictates and that FAA provides no assurances to restrict operations. Attorney Chalifour urged the
public to attend the April 15 Public Hearing to learn more about what the FAA is imposing on residents from
Dania Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood and Davie with the South Runway Expansion Project.
5.3 Dania Jai Alai presentation to Dania Beach Main Street for Tomato Festival Tournament.

mmended the generosity of Dania Jai Alai for their support of Main Street. Mr. Snyder presented Dania
Beach Main Street with a check in the amount of$3,241.00.
Richard Lehman, Chairman of Promotional Events, advised that he would be reducing his time involved with
Main Street and that Vickey Lawback would be taking over the Promotional Events Committee and that
Shauntel Gannon is the new Treasurer and was also Chairperson of the Economic Restructuring Committee.
5.4 Request by Neptune Fireworks, Inc. for approval to erect a canopy at 768 East Dania Beach Boulevard
for the following dates: April 9th —April 13th, June 13th—July 8th, December 29th —January 2"d

Growth Management Director, on the actual dates being requested.

requested for 2003.

Program and that Broward County needs to confirm the City's support for the acquisition of Sites 299 B and
Site 440.

along Dania Beach Boulevard having development potential and being a possible future tax producer for the
City.

Site 356A — Mr. Parks advised that the west parcel (356B) was previously supported by the City Commission
for acquisition and management and that the east parcel (Site 356 A) resulted in an option that was
incompatible to the City's financial plans. The purchase of site 356A involves a joint purchase with an FCT
grant and a match funding from the State, County and City. Mr. Parks advised Vice-Mayor Flury that bond
money would be used by the County for the County's match. It was noted that the City's match would have
been around $400,000 for the 10 acre site that included a house.

management of Site 440.

#Jeservation and Acquisition Advisory Board has been formed to review the unsupported sites by the cities.

REGULAR MEETING
Commissioner Mikes mentioned that since the City was contributing a high amount of tax payer funds for the
0 ier Restaurant project that the City should only entertain a short-term lease (10-year) to reduce the impact of
n unqualified restaurant operator and the legal ramifications of breaking a long-term 30-year lease.
In response to Commissioner Bertino's question, Mr. Keller advised that the loan money would be set aside in
an escrow fund, which would earn interest and help off-set the costs to repay the loan. The City will have the
flexibility on the $650,000 pier spending. The nature of the pier borrowing is that eventfully a private entity
would profit so the borrowing is taxable, not tax exempt, unlike the balance of the bond. Mr. Keller advised that
33% has to be spent within 12 months for three years on the first amount and that there is no time limit
requirement on the $650,000 pier amount

renovations when Mr. Weinstock purchased the property as well as a building permit for the sign that was
installed at the time. Mr. Koch advised that the sign has nothing to do with the abatement request and that the

blame; however, staff has no other recourse but to cite the owner of the property.

Dense but did not actually obtain a new license for property located at 1409 South Federal Highway.
Attorney Stacker restated his position that the license was pending prior to the Palmistry Ordinance being
adopted that imposed a 2,500 foot spacing requirement for these types of businesses. In addition, a palmistry
license renewal was granted for a business across the street from his client's property within two weeks of his
client's January 8th request. Attorney Stacker stated that the provisions in Chapter 12.5 are applicable to the
license request and include clear direction as to the basis for refusing to grant an application for issuance of
such a license. Mr. Stacker stated that the City Commission must indicate the basis for any action taken on the
license in accordance with Chapter 12.5 and requested recognition of the preexisting status of his client's
request to grant the license. Attorney Stacker agreed to work with staff on addressing the existing building
issues at the location.
City Attorney Ansbro added that Chapter 12.5 governing clairvoyants, palmists, and fortunetellers does not
stand alone and that the license requests must also be read in conjunction with the Occupational License

concerns.

mentioned that her son does not communicate with her and urged the City Commission to remove the lien from
her Hollywood residence.
City Attorney Ansbro advised that the City Commission could choose to direct Attorney Tim Ryan, Code
Attorney, to remove the lien from the Hollywood residence and confine the lien on the subject property in Dania
Beach.
Mr. Leeds advised that the property appears to be in compliance with the violations at this time.
