7 . 2 Request from the Dania Airport Advisory Committc�e relating to the
selling of air rights over local churches.
Jay Fields , Chairman for the Dania Airport Advisory Committee, explained
that the Broward County Aviation Department made a presentation to the
Board on sound reduction for local churches . Tn order to determine hot:
much sound proofing is needed in each church, they will have t " set up
an artificial sound source . He said that he was advised that the sound
would most likely be reduced by 300 only.
Mr . Fields explained the concertos that were expressed by the Airport
Committee members and mentioned that the cost was determined to be at
around $70 per square feet . Mr . Fields stated that the Committee ' s
recommendation to the City Commission is to declare Kcal churches
community assets and to not sell their air rights .
commissioner Hyde and Commissioner Bertino expressed concern on whether
the Commission has a right to impose restrictions on church property
rights .
City Attorney Adler mentioned that if the county wants air rights , they
are going to have to pay for them and part of this compensation would be
what damages the church suffers from what is taken . He staged that the
Commission does not have the right to control property rights of
churches .
Mayor Mikes suggested writing a letter to the Broward County Aviation
Division advising them of the recommendation by the Airport Advisory
Board instead of proposing a resolution on this issue .
- _ Commissioner Hyde suggested that the Committee draft their Position
Paper along these lines to be given to the t"onunission to send on to the

will continue to be serviced by the County and whether it will be a
regional park servicing several cities in the area . Mr . Flatley
mentioned that in connectiop with the recent anncxatinrt cif the area ,
some citizens have fallen into an unincorporated section which has
affected their use of the park .
Commissioner Hyde clarified that Sriffin Park is a n •iyhh"tln,od park and
not a regional perk within the County System at this time .
Commissioner Bertino expressed his opinion of the sub regional earl:
concept which he feels Griffin Park falls nnder that has historically
serviced people in the area who have paid county taxr who, are now being
disbursed into various nn.inicipalities . Comm'_ :, ionor Bertino felt that
the City should take a position to request the County to subsidize the
programs at the park so that the people in the nrtincorporated areas will
still be able to enjoy the use of the park .

and opened the public_ hearing for citizens to come forward to respond to
this issue .
