11. DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION:
11.1 Discussion of licensing rental property. (Commissioner Bertino)
;Commissioner Bertino mentioned that the City took action some time ago to implement an
Ordinance requiring licensing of rental properties and asked staff to report on the current status
of the project.
Ken Koch, Building Official, explained that a staff person was hired to work part-time for Growth
Management and part-time for the Building Department. The program has been created and it
took 10-12 weeks to create a database from tax bills and water billing records.- Over 600 letters-
were mailed-out April 1st to properties identified as rentals. He advised that 146epeople have
responded to the correspondence and that 63 owner occupied licenses have been issued.
Currently,-the::Building;Department has-18.pending applications-for. single,-family and duplexes. .
and 65 licenses have been issued for single family and duplexes that are not owner occupied.
He advised that owners that do not respond by September 30th will be issued a Code
Enforcement violation for not obtaining the required license.
Mayor Flury.recommended that. a second notice be sent out before the owners are cited by
Code. Mr. Koch advised that a second notice is expected to go out the beginning of August.
11.2 Discussion with Florida Department of Transportation concerning future plans for SW 4th
Avenue-(Sheridan Street to North Dixie Highway)-as it relatesto the proposed Sheridan Street
Widening Project.
Nick Danu, Project Manager with FDOT, explained that the Sheridan Street Widening Project is
identified as MPO Priority #12 and that design should be completed by July 1, 2003, Right-of-
way Acquisition by 2005, and construction and completion by 2009. The City Commission
previously reviewed the three (3) alternatives: (1) Holding the ROW to the South and 46
additional feet to the north; (2) Taking 46 feet to the south and keeping the northern ROW in
tact; (3) Taking 23 feet from both sides of the road. Mr. Danu advised that the closure of SW 4th
Avenue with northern movement may impede capacity at Old Dixie Highway and that FDOT
would like to present another alternative.
MINUTES REGULAR MEETING
CITY OF DANIA BEACH 7 JULY 10, 2001
Anthony Dresser, FDOT, presented a drawing of the northerly alignment and reported that
FDOT has decided to use the extra 53 feet from the northern parcels through engineering
necessity to install additional drainage and retention areas. In reference to the closing of SW 3rd
Avenue and 4th Avenue, FDOT presented an alternative plan to use one-way pairs for the Dixie
Highway Intersection. Mr. Dresser explained that, currently, there are one-way pairs to the
South of Sheridan Street and both SW 4th Avenue and Dixie Highway serve as two-way traffic
lanes to the north of Sheridan Street. FDOT would like to change the traffic flow by going one-
way south on Dixie Highway and 21st Street and 4th Avenue serving as one-way to the north.
The closing of SW 4th Street would impact this proposal. Another alternative would be to
relocate the entire intersection to the west of the railroad tracks, which would involve moving the
north bound movement on 21st Street across additional railroad crossings onto Dixie Highway.
Dixie Highway would then serve as a two-way north of the additional railroad crossing. Mr.
Dresser.stated the difficulty in this alternative because FEC is not cooperative in providing
additional railroad crossings and the only way they would agree is if FDOT could find two
railroad crossings in the general area that could be closed.Mr.,Dresser explained that the one-
way pair proposal would allow FDOT to move the .traffic through the Sheridan Street Corridor
much better and that the traffic would not flow as well if SW 4th Avenue was closed. Mr. Dresser
and Mr. Danu stated FDOT's desire to work with the City on the roadway project. Mr. Dresser
mentioned that public hearings are going to be held for the Sheridan Street Widening Program
and Dania Beach residents will be notified of how the street closure is impacting one of the
proposed alternatives.
The City Commission generally agreed that the City should proceed with closing SW 4th Avenue
to reduce the crime problems in the City.
. 11.3 Discussion of city manager search. (Mayor Flury)
Mayor Flury advised that some 40 resumes have been received for the city manager position
and that=after.speaking with Dr. George Hanbury; Ranger Rider for,the ICMA, he would not be
reviewing the resumes until after the August 23rd deadline date. Mayor Flury recommended
shortening the- process to July 30th so that-the resumes could be reviewed and interviews
scheduled earlier.
Commissioner Mikes recommended waiting until the next meeting to see who else applies for
the position as he thought there were many applicants that were not qualified and only six out of
the 40 that may fit the position.
11.4 Discussion of proposed tax increase and need for a City employee wage freeze.
(Commissioner Mikes)
Commissioner Mikes mentioned that the City is delayed in obtaining budget information at this
time. He mentioned that the previous city manager or staff over estimated revenues in many
areas, which has now caused a shortfall. He suggested that an executive session be scheduled
with the upcoming workshop-meeting to review the City's•financial situation based on current
union contract negotiations.
Commissioner Bertino asked City Attorney Ansbro whether or not the City could legally take the
position of a wage freeze based on the fact that union negotiations are ongoing at this time. City
Attorney Ansbro agreed that this matter should be discussed in an Executive Session.
MINUTES REGULAR MEETING
CITY OF DANIA BEACH 8 JULY 10, 2001
Mayor Flury recommended that the City Commission wait until staff has provided specific
. budget data so that the City Commission has a clear examination of the City's revenues and
expenditures.
Acting City Manager Nunemaker advised that staff is projecting Monday for distribution of the
proposed budget with a budget workshop scheduled next week. Commissioner Mikes
mentioned that two commissioners will be at the Noise Conference next week and Mr.
Nunemaker agreed that all commissioners'must be present at the budget workshop.
Mayor Flury stated that this-budget has been very difficult this year and that staff has worked
very hard to ensure accuracy with the forthcoming information.
11.5 Discussion of beginning RFP process for competitive towing franchise.-(Commissioner
Mikes)
_ -Commissioner Mikes mentioned that Dania Beach is.impacted with high public safety costs due
to traffic from the Port and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood Airport. He stressed the need to address
towing franchise fees to maximize the City's revenues and presented information concerning the
towing franchise contract with the City of Lauderhill. Commissioner Mikes recommended that a
--committee be-established to go out for competitive-bids for-towing services as a more ethical
way to address the services in the City.
Commissioner McElyea mentioned that he has been in the towing business for 38 years and
presented information on the competitiveness of the towing business. Commissioner McElyea
stated that he dealt with the Commission on Ethics back in 1988 and he clarified with them that
• as long as he was listed on the rotation list prior to 1975, it is legal for him to sit on the City
Commission and provide towing services for the City.
Commissioner.Bertino-mentioned-that<there.are-two.companies on the-City's rotation list; Mac's
Towing and Stuart's Garage. He pointed out that Mac's Towing has helped the City with many
services overthe-years=and that the system has been in effect for years without any complaints.
City .Attorney Ansbro read the Ethical.Conduct statute for.State-and -Local Employees and
Officers provided in the Sunshine Laws and mentioned that exceptions are provided for doing
business with ones own agency.
Kurt Ely, 245 SW 1st Avenue, Administrator for Mac's Towing Service, clarified that any towing
company can ask to be placed on the rotation list for towing services with the City as long as
they meet the requirements. He stated that the average number of tows for Mac's Towing is less
than 3 a day year round in the City and that Stuarts Garage and Mac's Towing are two separate
and distinct corporations.
Commissioner Mikes requested that Attorney Ansbro obtain a legal opinion from the State of
Florida, Commission on Ethics, on Commissioner McElyea's right to conduct towing business
with the City.
