, 2000 - September 30, 2001.
The use of an annual special assessment to fund fire rescue services, solid waste services and stormwater services

effective.
Annual special assessments for fire rescue services and stormwater services are being imposed on improved

$1,318,588. The annual fire rescue assessment is based on the classification of each parcel of property and number
of billing units contained therein.
The total annual stormwater assessment revenue to be collected within the City ofDania Beach is estimated to be
$294,000. The annual stormwater assessment is based upon the estimated amount of stormwater runoff generated
by impervious surface on the property.
The total annual solid waste assessment revenue to be collected within the City of Dania Beach is estimated to be
$353,000. The annual solid waste assessment is based on the number of residential dwelling units contained on each
parcel of property.
A public hearing will be held at 7:30 p.m. on August 22, 2000, in City Commission Chambers of City Hall, 100 West
Dania Beach Boulevard, Dania Beach, Florida for the purpose of receiving public comment on the proposed

STORMWATER SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS
Notice is hereby given that the City Commission of the City of Dania Beach will conduct a public hearing to consider �.
reimposing stormwater assessments for the provision of stormwater management services within the City of Dania
Beach for the Fiscal Year beginning October 1,2000.
The stormwater assessments are based upon the estimated amount of stormwater runoff generated by impervious
surface on each parcel of property.Impervious surfaces include the roof top,patios,driveways,parking lots and similar
areas. The City has determined that the median single-family residence in the City includes 1,836 square feet of j
impervious surface,which is defined as one"equivalent stormwater unit"or"ESU".The annual stormwater assessment t}�
rate for the upcoming fiscal year will be$20.00 for each ESU. ..
Generally,the number of ESUs will be calculated individually for each parcel of property by dividing the impervious
surface area by 1,836.However,since verifying the impervious surface for each single-family residence in the City is a
practical impossibility,single-family residences with impervious surface area between 918 square feet and 3,672 square
feet,inclusive,have been assigned one ESU.Smaller single-family residences have been assigned one-half ESU and
larger single-family residences have been calculated individually. '
Copies of the Stormwater Utility Ordinance(Ordinance No.13 96),the Initial stormwater Assessment Resolution `}
(Resolution No.73-96),the Final Stormwater Assessment Resolution(Resolution No.73-96,as amended by Resolution
No. 103.96 and Resolution 116-96), the Preliminary Rate Resolution initiating the annual process of updating the '.
Assessment Roll and reimposing the Stormwater Assessments,and the updated Stormwater Assessment Roll for the
upcoming fiscal year are available for inspection at the City Cierk'soffice.

SOLID WASTE SERVICE ASSESSMENTS
Notice is hereby given that the City Commission of the City of Dania Beach will conduct a public hearing to consider
reimposing solid waste service assessments for the Fiscal Year beginning October 1,2000,against certain improved ra
residential properties located within those incorporated areas of the City of Dania Beach annexed pursuant to Chapter
90-483, Laws of.Florida(sometimes referred to as the"Griffin Road Annexation Area" or the "Ravenswood Road
Annexation Area")or any other incorporated area served by water and sewer service providers other than the City,to a i
fund the cost of solid waste collection and disposal services and programs provided to such properties and to authorize
® collection of such assessments on the tax bill.
The solid waste service assessments will be computed by multiplying the number of dwelling units on each parcel
i by the rate of assessment.The rate of assessment for the upcoming fiscal year shall be$233.04.Unimproved properties, f
mobile home parks,apartments with four or more dwelling units,condominiums,or commercial properties are not subject l
+F I to the solid waste service assessment. '

The above special.assessments will be collected on the ad valorem tax bill to be mailed in November 2000,as ',.
