September 25th meeting that since Dania is not a huge
city, fence requests should remain under the variance

Hill expressed the danger created from improper traffic
vision on corners with high fences and felt that fence
i requests should remain under the variance procedure;

proposed ordinance was to address the problem of
conformity in the City and to ensure fairness to all

side yards and accidents that could be caused when

7 .2 City Attorney Adler informed the Commission of a
request to discuss the Frank Mirrer property. i
Will Allen, Growth Management Director , explained that
j the City Commission granted a Special Exception to Mr.
Mirrer on October 24 , 1989 to permit an enclosed
vehicle service establishment with certain conditions
and included review of this special exception after one
year to ensure that all conditions were met. Mr. Allen
mentioned that the conditions are as follows :
1 . No outside storage or mechanical work be
permitted;
2. No overnight parking of vehicles;
3. A 6 ' chain link fence and 5 ' hedges to be
] installed along the rear property line;
4 . Four (4) 8 ' Black Olive Trees be planted along the
rear property line.
i
j Mr. Allen stated that he has not received any response
from Mr. Mirrer since early October on how he has met
these conditions. Mr. Allen also stated that the Code
Enforcement Board has sited the property for having
violated the no outside storage condition and for no
permit on the roof structure.
Attorney Hochstein, representing Mr. Mirrer, explained
that they have now obtained a permit for the roof w
structure and site plan approval . Mr. Hochstein stated
that the materials being stored outside on the property
E
are materials used for the roof structure and will be
removed once the building is completed. Mr . Hochstein
assured the Commission that there has not been any
mechanical work done on vehicles and that his client
didn' t understand that the no overnight parking of
j vehicles included the fully operational vehicles. Mr.
@ Hochstein mentioned that the Commission later agreed to
j the installation of a 6 ' CBS wall along the outside of
the perimeter of the property instead of the chain link
fence and hedge.
Mr. Hochstein questioned why Mr. Mirrer was required to
obtain a Special Exception a year ago when his property
lies in a C-3 District where auto service stations are j
permitted. {�
Will Allen stated that in the C-3 classification there
is a list of special exceptions which includes enclosed
automobile service establishments .
Commissioner Grace expressed her dissatisfaction with
the condition of the Frank Mirrer property and felt the
project should be denied.
Will Allen mentioned that there was no permit pulled
for an extended wall that has been constructed and that
the wall will have to be demolished before they can
continue with any further construction. Mr. Allen

ADDENDUM ITEMS
7. 4 City Attorney Adler informed the Commission of
discussion regarding status report on League of Cities
Committee to pass Amendment #3 regarding unfunded State
Mandates on November 6, 1990. (Commissioner Cook)
REGULAR MEETING 12 OCTOBER 23, 1990
Commissioner Cook explained that a rally was conducted
at the State League of Cities with local cities
supporting the passage of Amendment #3 regarding
unfunded State Mandates for the November 6, 1990
{ referendum. Commissioner Cook explained the financial
j hardship that is placed on local governments when the
i
state legislature passes service programs to be funded
by local governments which then causes local cities to
be forced to raise taxes as they cannot afford these
programs. Commissioner Cook expressed appreciation to
the Commission for their support in this issue.
's
Commissioner Bertino pointed out that November 6 will
be the only time to make an attempt to stop the
unfunded State Mandates as this will become law and
local cities will be placed in adverse financial
situations by being forced to fund programs placed on
them by the legislature. Commissioner Bertino
explained that the efforts to get local governments and
i citizens involved in this issue was done by a petition
drive as there weren ' t enough legislators interested in
endorsing this amendment .
Commissioner Cook mentioned that every City in the
State of Florida adopted a resolution supporting the t
passage of Amendment #3 .
AT THIS TIME, THE COMMISSION HEARD 7.6
i
ITEM 7.5 WAS HEARD AFTER ITEM 3.1
7 . 5 (9 : 00 P.M. ) Discussion of abandoned buildings and
related criminal activities . (Vice Mayor Mikes)
Vice Mayor Mikes expressed the need to board up
abandoned buildings to deter vagrancy and criminal
activity in the Melaleuca Gardens area.
Will Allen , Growth Management Director, reported that
the condition of the Ribbon Writer Building at 701
North Federal Highway is painted with graffiti outside
and inside. Mr. Allen requested that the owner of the
building address the Commission at this time .
Wilson Atkinson, Attorney, representing Seaboard
Warehouse Terminals of Fort Lauderdale, Inc. , explained
that the owners acquired this property just recently I'
and gave a brief overview of the title and right-of-way
problems on the property. Mr. Atkinson stated that his !
,
clients are willing to assist the city by demolishing
this structure but have requested to do so in
conjunction with their proposed development plans.
Vice Mayor Mikes felt that the building needs to be
boarded up immediately due to the criminal and vagrancy
problems created and didn ' t feel that this immediate
problem relates to the proposed development of the
property.
Mayor McElyea concurred with Vice Mayor Mikes that the
building should be boarded up until the owners make a
decision on what type of development will be built.
Commissioner Bertino expressed the need to clean up the
property due to criminal activity, open up the paved
road easement for the owner to use and demolish the
building so that the property could be built on.
REGULAR MEETING 13 OCTOBER 23, 1990
The Commission generally agreed to have Mr. Atkinson
obtain figures on what the city is collecting on taxes
for the building right now opposed to revenue the City
could expect if there was development on the property.
3
Vice Mayor Mikes suggested that the property would be
more marketable if the building foundation was to
remain but to demolish the building as it would not be
cost effective to continue ongoing maintenance to keep
the property boarded up. t
Wilson Atkinson stated that he would be happy to work
with the city staff by removing this structure and also
requested assistance from the City to open up the road
easement so that development plans can be expedited.
i
Commissioner Cook suggested to turn this situation over
to City Manager Flatley and Growth Management Director
Allen to work out a resolution that will be to the best
interest of all parties . Commissioner Cook stated that
she also would rather see the building demolished.
Will Allen, Growth Management Director, stated that the
building is more than an unsafe structure situation as
it is also a violation to property standard codes . Mr.
Allen and the Commission mentioned the on going high
weeds , graffiti, vagrancy, skate board ramps and auto
stripping problems . Vice Mayor Mikes mentioned that a
person was killed there two years ago and that children
i
are in and out of the building and that it is unsafe. I
Commissioner Cook requested that Mr. Atkinson advise 4
his clients of the dangerous situation that is created
from this structure.
The Commission generally agreed to have the City
a Manager, City Attorney and Growth Management Director
{ to handle this situation with Mr. Atkinson and to come
back to a workshop meeting to discuss solutions to the
problem.
Mr. Atkinson stated that he would make an appointment
with the City staff by the first of next week.

j update on the construction of the Reuter Recycling
Plant. (Commissioner Cook)
Commissioner Cook explained that Pembroke Pines ,
Pompano Beach, Hallandale and Dania are the four cities
involved in the agreement with the Reuter Recycling
Plant for the disposal of garbage . Commissioner Cook
stated that there are now other cities interested in
entering into an agreement with these four cities and
the Rueter Recycling Plant at a higher rate .
i
Commissioner Cook explained that Dania representatives
were able to tour the plant with the members of the
Board of Directors and that the plant is expected to be
open in the middle of 1991 . Commissioner Cook
mentioned the benefits to this plant being that Dania !
residents will not have to separate their garbage and
that the charge to the City will only be $54 per ton
opposed to the County charge of $64 a ton.
Commissioner Cook mentioned that this plant will not
involve the disposal of large hard items . !1
Vice Mayor Mikes stated that over a few years Dania
residents will probably experience a significantly
greater decrease in garbage collection fees in using I
i this composting plant opposed to residents in
unincorporated areas or in cities forced to deal with
i the county incinerators .
a
Commissioner Bertino expressed the benefits for the use
of this composting plant for ecology reasons opposed to

Commissioner Bertino commended the BSO and Dania
Chamber of Commerce and Optimist Club for their efforts

I
Commissioner Bertino reconfirmed the Crime Watch
Meeting for the people from the Melaleuca area on t
Thursday, October 25 at 6: 30 p.m.
I i
I
Commissioner Bertino requested the public to take the
i necessary precautions for safety with the Encephalitis
outbreak during Halloween.
! 11. 2 Commissioner Cook
i City Manager Flatley reported that FPL seems to be
maintaining street lights better after receiving a list
of locations in need of repair from the City. Mr .
j Flatley reported that he is awaiting an answer on when
the County will be placing Dania ' s request for stop i
signs in the SW section and new street lights in the SE d
section on their agenda for action.
Mr. Flatley expressed a need for a petition to be
circulated in an effort to place pressure under the
Department of Transportation to install a traffic turn
signal light at the entrance to the Melaleuca Gardens
area near the airport on US 1 . Mr. Flatley stated that
the Department of Transportation has installed the
wiring for the light but have not made a commitment on
installing a light as the Engineers are saying there
isn ' t enough accident data to warrant a light in this
area.
Commissioner Cook reported that the drain recently
" installed at the Sandpiper Townhouses and Publix
Shopping Center has helped considerably in clearing up
the standing water problem and that the other drain to
be installed should get rid of the water completely.
Mr. Flatley mentioned that once the drains are
completely installed the paving of SE 14th Street will
be completed and the wall constructed.
Commissioner Cook mentioned that she had thought the
Meadowbrook Lakes drainage problem was worked out by
installing a baffle to divert the water from the
Sandpiper Townhouses out into the east area.
}
City Manager Flatley stated that he is awaiting a
i
response from Don Windham, Berry & Calvin, on what
solution they have decided would work best in that area
to be brought back before the Commission for
discussion. j
Commissioner Bertino stated that he understood that
there were 6 lines running into the Meadowbrook Lakes
and they are coming from the two east/west lateral
mains. The problem is created because there is such
head pressure built up coming all the way from Federal
Highway that the water is blown back down the 6
laterals into the Lakes . '
OCTOBER 23, 1990
REGULAR MEETING 17
n -
I �
j
Commissioner Bertino suggested that the Engineer
research the idea of moving the catch basins for the I
drainage area in the swales back and to put a flapper
valve on the end of each one of the 6 lines that go
back into the lake off the main laterals. The head
pressure would then throw the valves shut and no water
would go back into the lakes . The water needed from
the swale area for a recharge to the lake would be
taken care of by moving the catch basins back 4 to 5
feet to the south along the northern edge and to the
north along the southern edge.
I
City Manager Flatley reported that the Mosquito control
will be out in the Melaleuca Gardens area before the
end of the day on Friday.
11 .3 Commissioner Grace
Commissioner Grace expressed appreciation for the
prayers for her daughter, Cheryl . i
Commissioner Grace asked City Manager Flatley to
respond to the problem of yard cuttings on SW 13 and 14
Avenue and requested him to check into removing the
pink building on NW 1st Street and 14th Avenue due to
the danger to children who are playing in the building.
�. Commissioner Grace informed the audience that MUPA will
be having a softball tournament at Modello Park this w-
weekend, that on November 19th there will be a
Spaghetti Dinner at Modello Park at 7 : 30 p.m. as a
community effort to raise funds for supplies needed for I
Modello Park, and encouraged citizens to vote on
November 6 .
d Mr. Flatley responded to Commissioner Grace 's questions
on the yard cuttings on SW 13 and 14 Avenue and the
J unsafe structure mentioned by explaining that he would
have Cliff Taylor, Public Works Supervisor, speak with
= her about the progress being completed.

I
Vice Mayor Mikes requested City :Manager Flatley to look {
into whether the owner of the property on 3 Avenue on
the southeast side has been sited for the number of
dead black olive trees in accordance with the
regulations stipulated in the tree trimming ordinance. p
Vice Mayor Mikes encouraged passage of Amendment 4 on
November 6 relating to the Sunshine Amendment requiring
that legislatures should abide by the same open
government rules as those imposed by local officials .

Mayor McElyea informed the Commission that Pembroke
