Commissioner McElyea was asked to schedule the South Broward High School band for January 21st at 9:30 a.m. event. 4.2 Sara Blanchard, 318 SW 14 Street, opposed the street closure project ongoing in the southwest section of the City and felt that the project is bringing a negative image on the neighborhood. Pamalae Richards, 1400 SW 3-Avenue, opposed the street closures as she felt that the community was unfairly being stigmatized as a crime area when there are other areas of the City that should be investigated for drug and prostitution crimes. Sue Whitaker, 218 SW 12 Street, presented a letter in support of the road blocks. Teddy Bohannan, Crime Activist in the City, stated that the road closures have provided a safer environment and reduced the exposure to prostitution and drug crimes for the residents. Her grandson, Clay, stated that the streets are safer for children to play and that children do not have to fear drug dealers. Commissioner Bertino pointed out that the barricades are temporary and that they would be improved in the future should the street closure program reduce crime. He pointed out to the public that the street closure program implemented near Hollywood Memorial Hospital actually increased property values. Reverend Ben Hollis encouraged the community and the City to work together to stop the drug dealing and prostitution in the area. • City Manager Pato appreciated the comments that were presented by residents from the area. However, he pointed out that numerous meetings were conducted on the street closure program before it was implemented and that the request for the program came directly from the community. He urged the community to allow the 6-month trial period to be completed in order to obtain the necessary test results so that a decision could be made to remove the barricades or install permanent barricades with landscaping. Item 5.2 was heard after Item 4. 5. PRESENTATIONS AND SPECIAL EVENT APPROVALS: 5.1 Presentation by Bill Houppermans, Airport Consultant, URS Associates, on Fort Lauderdale- Hollywood International Airport 2020 Vision Plan. Mayor Flury clarified that the 2020 Vision Program had nothing to do with the airport expansion project. Bill Houppermans explained that the 2020 Vision Plan provides a projection of growth for Port Everglades and the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. The project is currently in the definition phase and public input would be conducted in January. Mr. Houppermans mentioned that meetings have already been held with Florida Department of Transportation, Tri-rail, BC Transit, Port Everglades, and MPO (Metropolitan Planning Organization), which resulted in a better understanding of the many transit projects that are currently in the planning process. A couple of the projects involve light rail transit. Light Rail Transit is run and powered by overhead wires and can run at grade and cross streets because the electricity is separated from the rail. Cars can pass over light rail transit very safety and it is an economical solution. The transit agencies now meet on a regular basis and the agencies desire to work with the cities and communities towards a goal of defining what projects to study through MINUTES 3 NOVEMBER 27, 2001 REGULAR MEETING an environmental process. The Transit Authorities would then go back before the County Commission . to present costs and provide a final recommendation. Lee Fisher, Leigh Fisher Associates, provided an overview on the base case development program for a 7-level facility that provides facilities for both the rental car concessionaires, additional public parking, and a 600 room Hotel that uses the "air rights" atop the 7-level parking facility. Construction was projected for 2009. (See attached Financial Assessment of Development Options, Fort Lauderdale- Hollywood International Airport, prepared by Leigh Fisher Associates, Consultants to Airport Management). Commissioner Bertino stated that Broward County already presented a retail center marketing plan without any input from the cities and communities. Although he was grateful that Broward County was now obtaining input from the communities, he was concerned that county funds and land were being used to compete with existing hotels near the airport. He agreed that Intermodel transportation systems would be beneficial for existing hotels and retail centers to provide convenience for travelers going to and from the airport. In addition, it would be natural to combine the ocean port with the airport and to utilize elevated systems as one alternative. Mayor Flury thought that this 2020 Plan seems significantly downsized from the original version that included twin tower hotels and a large retail center. She suggested that the People Mover may not be the answer because hotels are so close to the airport. Mayor Flury was hopeful that a formal process would be conducted to document comments from all agencies impacted by the proposal. Bill Houppermans advised that the County had assured him that the project would not create competition. He agreed that a report justifying the market analysis would need to be produced. At this . time, the County Commission has only agreed to spend $6 million to strengthen the existing garage and fund the program as long as market demand is present. Commissioner McElyea was of the opinion that the proposal had potential for taking money away from the local hotels in the area and reducing the City's ad valorem tax revenues. 5.2 Presentation on City hosting Orange Bowl Patch Party at Dania Beach. Dave Keller, Finance Director, introduced Stephan Benson, Associate Director with the Orange Bowl Committee. Mr. Benson explained that this is the 68th Year of the FedEx Orange Bowl game and parade, which began as an event to generate tourism in the South Florida area. The event has grown to a national component throughout the country and would be televised on ABC. Last year, the Orange Bowl Committee hosted the National Championship with Florida State and Oklahoma that included 50 million viewers. A presentation was provided on the "The Patch" program. Mr. Keller advised that the same acts performing during half time at the Orange Bowl game would be performing January 1st on the end of the pier. The entertainment would be aimed northward on the beach so that the parking area would be available for parking. Mr. Keller estimated the City's cost at $20,000 and he expected some sponsorship assistance from businesses. He mentioned that BFI agreed to donate $7,500 and that DCOTA has agreed to advertise the event on their billboard. Discussion followed.on additional parking being provided at Dania Jai Alai and near the FAU SeaTech facility. MINUTES 4 NOVEMBER 27, 2001 REGULAR MEETING Commissioner Bertino was concerned that the City might not be able to accommodate the event due to the lack of parking and concern for traffic impact at the beach. Randy Wilkinson, Parks & Recreation, advised that 450 cars could be accommodated at the beach. Chief Anton, BSO, advised that shuttle type parking from Dania Jai Alai would have to be utilized and that off-duty police detail could handle the traffic and security. The City of Hollywood would also have to be notified and brought into the event due to the traffic impact on A1A. Mr. Benson expected 3,000 to 5,000 people to attend the event and thought that the event would grow over the years and would be beneficial to the City. City Manager Pato was hopeful that sponsorship from businesses would reduce the cost to the City. A motion was made by Commissioner Bertino, seconded by Vice-Mayor Chunn, directing staff to move forward with holding the Fed Ex Patch Party at the Beach for January 1st from noon to 8:00 p.m. The motion passed on the following 4/0 roll call vote with Commissioner Mikes being absent: Commissioner Bertino-yes Commissioner McElyea-yes Vice-Mayor Chunn-yes Mayor Flury-yes Mr. Keller was pleased to announce that one of the City's employees, Nanci Denny, has a son, Justin, who is on a youth football team and that he stands a good chance of playing in the Orange Bowl in the next week or so. 6.

Robert Bulfin, representing Pauline Cray, advised that Ms. Cray purchased the property in July 1998 and resided there until April 2000.

The positioning of the trailer in that location is not permitted as it is considered outdoor storage and creates a problem with loading or unloading vehicles. Sam Weiss advised that the trailer is an emergency mobile kitchen that is used to provide hot meals to workers during emergency events. Mr. Weiss explained that he plans within six months to move the trailer inside the yard located north of the building and that his request is only temporary.
