This includes the revisions required by the Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR), as well as the inclusion of the annexed lands to the Comprehensive Plan. The update also includes revisions to the Future Land Use Element required by the Broward County Planning Council to gain full certification from that agency. Those changes are specifically noted in a shaded format, rather than an underlined format. I The proposed land use map also proposes four(4) revisions as follows: 1. In the northwestern portion of the City, and a part of Secret Woods Park, the Comprehensive Plan indicated a portion of Secret Woods for Industrial use. Inasmuch as this has been acquired by Broward County Parks and Recreation, it is more appropriate that is be designated a Conservation use. The Broward County Parks and Recreation Division has provided a memorandum requesting the same. 2. The area of the Bass Pro/IGFA site was changed to commercial use via the twenty (20) percent flexibility rule. The recommendation is to indicate it as Commercial consistent with the existing use. 3. This site has been shown Residential/Commercial on the Dania Comprehensive Plan since 1989. This is a category that is not permitted by Broward County, as outlined in their initial certification review of the Dania Comprehensive Plan. Accordingly, the designation is being revised to Commercial land use which would be consistent with the surrounding land uses. sc r n , .i lsJd � pa • Planning • Zoning Land Use Expert Testimony 808 East Las Olas Boulevard, Suite 104, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33301 Phone: (954) 467-6308 Fax: (954) 467-6309 1 Leigh Robinson Kerr and Associates, Inc.

ANSBRO,CITY ATTORNEY DONALD J. LUNNY,JR.,ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY RE: LAND USE PLAN TEXT CLARIFICATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS DATE:DECEMBER 4, 1998 CC: MR. KERR MR. VIRTA i The City Attorney's office was requested to review the draft Comprehensive Plan with the object of reducing the range of permitted uses allowed in residential areas, reducing the availability of heavy industrial use in the industrial category,and encouraging a vibrant marine-oriented industrial/business tax base. I. HOTEL, MOTEL,AND RE-ENTRY FACILITY RECOMMENDATIONS In conjunction with Mr. Kerr, we recommended that hotels and motels be restricted to parcels enjoying a medium to high residential land-use designation, we deleted from the description of community facilities the words "clinics and rehabilitation centers", and we recommended that power plant sub-stations, transmission facilities, and solid waste disposal and transfer stations be similarly excluded from lands designated Residential. I The Commission requested additional clarification of the uses that would be considered hotel or motel uses, particularly in view of the recent Dismas Charities, Inc. litigation. In that case, Judge Streitfeld ruled that Dania Beach would be estopped from interpreting its zoning code and applying it to Dismas House in a fashion contrary to Mr.Adler's letter. In its findings,the Court noted that Dismas Charities,Inc. operated a residential based facility that provided counseling, treatment, and assistance to its residents, that the government subsidized the use, that drug and alcohol counseling and job I placement functions occurred at the facility, and that the use should not be deemed a"correctional or penal institution"since Dania Beach's Zoning Code did not define those terms and since residents were not confined or restrained. As the City Commission is aware, "hotels","motels",and"police protection facilities"are uses that are allowed throughout the Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Classifications. In order to clarify the meaning of these words and in view of the City Commission's desire to have these clarifications in the Comprehensive Plan,the following language is recommended for the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code as definitions: Hotel. A building or part thereof, in which rental sleeping units are offered to the public where all charges for staying at the hotel (e.g. for food, lodging, and accessory j services)are paid for by the room renter. Hotels maintain an inner lobby through which Sri Mayor and Members of City Commission December 4, 1998 all occupants must pass to gain access. Hotel sleeping rooms are accessed solely through interior hallways, even when such units are on ground floors. Frequently guests to stay more than one (1) night and typically hotels have amenities That cater to longer staying guests such as exercise rooms, spas, restaurants, meeting rooms, ballrooms, convention facilities, reading areas, and limited shopping areas. Hotels cater to transient occupancy, and may have limited kitchenette facilities (i.e., microwave, coffee maker, small sink, miniature refrigerator)for use by the occupants in rooms. Motel. A building, or series of buildings, being attached semi-detached, or detached, in which rental sleeping units are offered to the public where all charges for staying at the motel (e.g.for food, lodging, and accessory services) are paid for by the room renter, and where each unit has convenient exterior access to a parking space for the use of the unit's occupants. Access to sleeping rooms is from the exterior of the building as opposed to through the interior. The rental sleeping units, with the exception of a dwelling unit for the manager or caretaker, are devoted predominantly to the use of motor vehicle traveling transients who typically stay one night. These units may have limited kitchenette facilities (i.e., microwave, coffee maker, small sink, miniature refrigerator)for use by the occupants in rooms. Penal, Correctional, and Re-Entry Facilities. The following are not considered a "hotel"or "motel, or a "police protective facility, " or a "Community Facility", and instead, are hereby defined as being "Penal, Correctional, and Re-Entry Facilities, regardless of whether the uses are publicly,privately or charitably owned, operated, or subsidized: jails, correctional facilities, detention facilities, prison release facilities, convict or prisoner rehabilitation or societal re-introduction facilities (e.g. "hatlivay houses", supervised or structured living, working, or educational facilities), or facilities where residents are not confined or restrained but are free to leave the facilityfor work or personal needs subject to operative rules controlling residency on the premises and that provide community-based treatment to persons referred by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, a State Department of Corrections, or like federal or state agency, who need re-entry into the community, including drug and alcohol counseling and job placement assistance. We would recommend that the Comprehensive Plan be amended to add the following policy to the Residential, Commercial, Industrial, Downtown Development District, Office Park, Employment Center, and Community Facilities Future Land Use Classifications: "Penal, Correctional, and Re-Entry Facilities are prohibited". Finally,we would recommend that the Dania Beach Zoning Code be amended to delete"penal and correctional facilities" and any other similar Dania Beach uses from the Zoning Code. These amendments would prevent more of these types of uses from locating within Dania Beach in the absence of preemptive State or Federal law. -, 2 1 Mayor and Members of City Commission December 4, 1998 2. INDUSTRIAL DEFINITIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS The amendments proposed in conjunction with Mr. Kerr at the November Transmittal hearing were designed to include marine industrial uses in the Industrial Land Use Designation and limit heavy industrial uses to those operating on the effective date of the Plan amendments. In the future, heavy industrial uses would be permitted only when they offer significant gains and opportunities and limited adverse secondary impacts. Several requests were made at the November Transmittal hearing. Notably, the Commission asked Staff to consider defining"heavy"and"light" industrial uses. The Commission also requested Staff to consider removing all heavy industrial uses from the Plan, and if that was not feasible, to consider further clarifying the intended restrictions. As noted by the City Attorney at the hearing, a total removal of all heavy industrial uses could create regulatory questions when the Dania Beach Plan is reviewed by State and Regional Planning Agencies. We would additionally note that Comprehensive Plans are intended to serve as a blueprint for future development. Zoning implements a Comprehensive Plan. Any zoning made inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan must be amended within a time certain to be made consistent. Arguably, deleting all heavy industrial uses from the Land Use Plan would require the City to rezone all heavy industrial zoning classifications or delete all heavy industrial uses in the City's zoning classifications. This would limit Commission flexibility and could create claims that such measures should result in compensation to present heavy industrial operators and landowners. In order to leave open an opportunity to capitalize on a proposed heavy industrial use that the City may wish to approve,the policies were written so as to encourage limiting heavy industrial uses to those operating on the effective date of the Plan Amendment,give the City better Plan language to support any desired-but-notrequired rezonings of Industrial Designated property to a less intense Industrial or Marine zoning classification, and allow the Commission the flexibili to approve future proposed heavy industrial uses when and if the Commission desires. The Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan,as well as the Broward County Comprehensive Plan, presently permit"Light and heavy Industrial Uses"in the Industrial Future Land Use Designation. The Broward County Plan has a definition for Industrial Uses which reads: Industrial Uses- "means the activities within land areas predominantly connected with manufacturing, assembling, processing, or storage ofproducts". While neither the Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan nor Broward County Comprehensive Plan have definitions for "light industrial use" as opposed to "heavy industrial use", the Dictionary Of Development Terminology authored by J. Robert Dumouchel and published by McGraw-Hill, Inc. 1997,. defines the terms as follows: 1 „� 3 1 Mayor and Members of City Commission December 4, 1998 .Heavy Industry. Businesses requiring large tracts of land to accommodate their nature and function -such as mills,foundries, refineries,packing plants-generally characterized as producing noise, vibration, heavy truck traffic, and fumes. Light Industry. Businesses whose operation requires less land then heavy industry and whose operation normally is not objectionable because of noise, heavy truck traffic,ftanes, etc. In Moskowitz and Lindbloom's, The New Illustrated Book of Development Definitions, published in 1993 by The Center for Urban Policy and Research, the authors have the following comment: Most zoning ordinances define light industry in terms of the finished product, raw materials, size of the machinery used in the process, or number of employees. A typical definition of light industry might require that the finished product shall consist of small machine parts or small electronic equipment. Another common definition would prohibit motors in excess of ten horsepower. The Institute of Transportation Engineers describes general light industrial as employing less than five hundred persons with emphasis on activities other than manufacturing. Light industry (and heavy industry,for that matter) should be defined in terms of intensity and impact, as well as use. With the advent of stricter environmental laws regulating noise, air pollution, glare, water quality, and waste treatment, the difference between light and heavy industry essentially narrows down to traffic generation, building bulk, and intensity of site development. . . . Light industrial standards would restrict the intensity of development(lower FAR floor area ratio), impervious coverage, size of the building, number of vehicles, including those for employees as well as deliveries and pickups,prohibit outdoor storage, and require that all activities are carried on within the principal building. This latter provision would rule out for example, those facilities that require large structures outside principal buildings, such as refineries. By establishing a maximum size for the lot (possibly five acres), maximum building and impervious coverage (60 and 75 percent, respectively), a maximum height of two stories, and a maximum FAR of.5 or less, the municipality is assured that the light industry would generate a minimum amount of traffic and have limited impact on the surrounding area. Additional requirements could be established to further define light and heavy industry. For instance, many states allow municipalities to impose higher performance standards than those required by.state law. Noise standards could be 4 R Mayor and Members of City Commission December 4, 1998 established that prohibit any noise above a certain decibel rating beyond the walls I of the building, with a different standard for light and heavy industrial zones. Air quality requirements could similarly be increased Given the dif tculty in enforcing i the standards and determining when violations take place, the most practical approach is to establish bulk and intensity standards that limit the size and bulk of the building and consequently the impact. Finally, specific use categories can be included to rule out certain uses that would not be permitted regardless of intensity or impact. For example, manufacturing of certain toxic gases or chemicals would not be a permitted use regardless of the size of the facility. We note that the Comprehensive Plan Definitions need not be as detailed as Zoning Code Definitions. In order to now more clearly effectuate the Commission's apparent legislative intent to define light industrial and heavy industrial uses, and revise the recommended policies, we recommend that the relevant plan language be changed as follows: Light Industrial Use. Business activity which is predominantly connected with assembling or storage of small machine parts, electronics, and communications equipment where all activities are carried on within an enclosed building, and deliveries and pickups are made from enclosed trucks or vans. The equipment used in the light industrial manufacturing process do not typically contemplate large machines, generate significant emissions of toxic or regulated gases, or the use of bulk chemical combinations (i.e. light industrial buildings typically do not have smokestacks and on-site bulk chemical mixing is not contemplated). Light Industrial business operations are not objectionable because of noise, heavy truck traffic, fumes, vibration, glare, etc. Emphasis is primarily related to an activity other than manufacturing. - Marine Industrial. Marine industrial uses are designed to accommodate marine and marine-related industries which, when necessary(for example, as a result of the size of the boat or yacht) and allowed, may take place outside of a building. Included are light industrial and research uses that are conducted within completely enclosed buildings and which have limited impact outside of buildings. Marine Industrial uses include: marinas; boat and yacht dealers and showrooms; boat and yacht brokers; repair and building of boats, yachts, and marine engines and equipment; sail making jand repair; storage, repair, and building of marine parts and accessories; 5 I Mayor and Members of City Commission December 4, 1998 boat and yacht cleaning, maintenance, and painting; and, transportation and ticketing,facil ities. Heavy Industrial Business whose activities are predominantly connected with manufacturing, assembling,processing, or storage, which business is not included within the definition of Light Industrial or Marine Industrial. If a particular operation or use can be classified as a Light Industrial or Heavy Industrial, it shall be classified as Heavy Industrial. Heavy industrial Uses can have outdoor operations or storage, and are not limited to the small machine parts, communications, and electronic businesses. We also recommend that the new Plan Policy Limiting Future Heavy Industrial Uses and encouraging quality Marine Industrial Use development be revised and added respectively as follows: Heavy Industrial Uses. The City shall not encourage additional Heavy Industrial Development. After January 1, 1999, Heavy Industrial Uses will be allowed only when they offer significant gains and opportunities to the City (in terms of employment opportunity, increased tax base, an enhancement to the City's growing reputation as a significant commerce locations for the Marine Industry, or the provision of services and goods deemed necessary and desirable for Dania Beach's citizenry as distinguished from the citizens of Broward County or Southeast Florida), and when such Industrial Uses are planned, designed, and built to minimize adverse secondary impacts of noise, outdoor activities, environmental pollution, vibration, dust, odors, traffic generation, or other physical activity. In evaluating heavy I Industrial Use development, the. City may require more than the minimum setback landscaping, open space, and pervious area requirements, and less than the maximum building height and lot coverage requirements to minimize or offset negative secondary impacts. Marine Industrial Uses. The City shall encourage additional Marine Industrial development. In doing so, Marine Industrial development shall be planned designed, and built to be as f lly enclosed in buildings as is reasonably possible and to minimize adverse secondary impacts of noise, outdoor activities, environmental pollution, vibration, dust, odors, traffic generation, or other physical activity. In evaluating Marine Industrial development, the City may require more than the minimum setback landscaping, open space, and pervious area requirements, and less than the maximum building height and lot coverage requirements to minimize or offset negative secondary impacts.

The Commission requested additional clarification of the uses that would be considered hotel or motel uses, particularly in view of the recent Dismas Charities, Inc. litigation. In that case, Judge Streitfeld ruled that Dania Beach would be estopped from interpreting its zoning code and applying it to Dismas House in a fashion contrary to Mr.Adler's letter. In its findings,the Court noted that Dismas Charities,Inc.operated a residential based facility that provided counseling,treatment, and assistance to its residents, that the government subsidized the use, that drug and alcohol counseling and job placement functions occurred at the facility, and that the use should not be deemed a"correctional or penal institution"since Dania Beach's Zoning Code did not define those terms and since residents were not confined or restrained. As the City Commission is aware,"hotels","motels",and"police protection facilities"are uses that are allowed throughout the Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Classifications. In order to clarify the meaning of these words and in view of the City Commission's desire to have these clarifications in the Comprehensive Plan,the following language is recommended for the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code as definitions: Hotel. .4 building or part thereof, in which rental sleeping units are offered to the public where all charges for staying at the hotel (e.g. for food, lodging, and accessory services)are paid for by the room renter. Hotels maintain an inner lobby through which y Mayor and Members of City Commission December 4, 1998 all occupants must pass to gain access. Hotel sleeping rooms are accessed solely through interior hallways, even when such units are on ground floors. Frequently guests to stay more than one (1)night and typically hotels have amenities that cater to longer staying guests such as exercise rooms, spas, restaurants, meeting rooms, ballrooms, convention facilities, reading areas, and limited shopping areas. Hotels cater to transient occupancy, and may have limited kitchenette facilities(i.e., microwave, coffee maker, small sink, miniature refrigerator)for use by the occupants in rooms. Motel. A building, or series of buildings, being attached, semi-detached, or•detached, in which rental sleeping units are offered to the public where all charges for staying at the motel (e.g.for food, lodging, and accessory services) are paid for by the room renter, and where each unit has convenient exterior access to a parking space for the use of the unit's occupants. Access to sleeping rooms is from the exterior of the building as opposed to through the interior. The rental sleeping units, with the exception of a dwelling unit for the manager or caretaker, are devoted predominantly to the use of motor vehicle traveling transients who h pically stay one night. These units may have limited kitchenette facilities (i.e., microwave, coffee maker, small sink; miniature refrigerator)for use by the occupants in rooms. Penal, Correctional, and Re-Entry Facilities. The following are not considered a "hotel"or "motel, or a "police protective facility, "or a "Community Facility", and instead are hereby defined as being "Penal, Correctional, and Re-Entry Facilities, regardless of whether the uses are publicly,privately or charitably owned operated or subsidized: jails, correctional facilities, detention facilities, prison release facilities, convict or prisoner rehabilitation or societal re-introduction facilities(e.g. "halfway houses", supervised or structured living, working, or educational facilities), or facilities where residents are not confined or restrained but are free to leave the facility for work or personal needs subject to operative rules controlling residency on the premises and that provide community-based treatment to persons referred by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, a State Department of Corrections, or like federal or state agency, who need re-entry into the community, including drug and alcohol counseling and job placement assistance. We would recommend that the Comprehensive Plan be amended to add the following policy to the Residential, Commercial, Industrial, Downtown Development District, Office Park, Employment Center, and Community Facilities Future Land Use Classifications: "Penal, Correctional, and Re-Entry Facilities are prohibited". Finally,we would recommend that the Dania Beach Zoning Code be amended to delete"penal and correctional facilities"and any other similar Dania Beach uses from the Zoning Code. These amendments would prevent more of these types of uses from locating within Dania Beach in the absence of preemptive State or Federal law. 2 1 Mayor and Members of City Commission. December 4, 1998 2. INDUSTRIAL DEFINITIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS The amendments proposed in conjunction with Mr. Keff at the November Transmittal hearing were designed to include marine industrial uses in the Industrial Land Use Designation and limit heavy industrial uses to those operating on the effective date of the Plan amendments. In the future, heavy industrial uses would be permitted only when they offer significant gains and opportunities and limited adverse secondary impacts. Several requests were made at the November Transmittal hearing. Notably,the Commission asked Staff to consider defining"heavy"and`light" industrial uses. The Commission also requested Staff to consider removing all heavy industrial uses from the Plan,and if that was not feasible,to consider further clarifying the intended restrictions. As noted by the City Attorney at the hearing, a total removal of all heavy industrial uses could create regulatory questions when the Dania Beach Plan is reviewed by State and Regional Planning Agencies. We would additionally note that Comprehensive Plans are intended to serve as a blueprint for future development. Zoning implements a Comprehensive Plan. Any zoning made inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan must be amended within a time certain to be made consistent. Arguably,deleting all heavy industrial uses from the Land Use Plan would require the City to rezone all heavy industrial zoning classifications or delete all heavy industrial uses in the City's zoning classifications. This would limit Commission flexibility and could create claims that such measures should result in compensation to present heavy industrial operators and landowners. In order to leave open an opportunity to capitalize on a proposed heavy industrial use that the City may wish to approve, the policies were written so as to encourage limiting heavy industrial uses to those operating on the effective date of the Plan Amendment, give the City better Plan language to support any desired-but-not-required rezonings of Industrial Designated property to a less intense Industrial or Marine zoning classification,and allow the Commission the flexibili to approve future proposed heavy industrial uses when and if the Commission desires. The Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan,as well as the Broward County Comprehensive Plan, presently permit"Light and heavy Industrial Uses"in the Industrial Future Land Use Designation. The Broward County Plan has a definition for Industrial Uses which reads: Industrial Uses- "means the activities within land areas predominantly connected with manufacturing, assembling,processing, or storage ofproducts". While neither the Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan nor Broward County Comprehensive Plan have definitions for "light industrial use" as opposed to "heavy industrial use", the Dictionary Of Development Terminology authored by J. Robert Dumouchel and published by McGraw-Hill, Inc. 1997,defines the terms as follows: -/ 3 i Mayor and Members of City Commission December 4, 1998 Heavy Industry. Businesses requiring large tracts of land to accommodate their nature and function -such as mills,foundries, refineries,packing plants-generally characterized as producing noise, vibration, heavy truck traffic, and fumes. Light Industry. Businesses whose operation requires less land then heavy industry and whose operation normally is not objectionable because of noise, heavy truck traffic,fumes, etc. In Moskowitz and Lindbloom's,The New Illustrated Book of Development Definitions, published in 1993 by The Center for Urban Policy and Research, the authors have the following comment: Most zoning ordinances define light industry in terms of the finished product, raw materials, size of the machinery used in the process, or number of employees. A typical definition of light industry might require that the finished product shall consist of small machine parts or small electronic equipment. Another common definition would prohibit motors in excess of ten horsepower. The Institute of Transportation Engineers describes general light industrial as employing less than five hundred persons with emphasis on activities other than manufacturing. Light industry (and henry industry,for that matter) should be defined in terms of intensity and impact, as well as use. With the advent of stricter environmental laws regulating noise, air pollution, glare, water quality, and waste treatment, the difference between light and heavy industry essentially narrows down to traffic generation, building bulb and intensity of site development. . . . Light industrial standards would restrict the intensity of development(lower FAR-floor area ratio), impervious coverage, size of the building, number of vehicles, including those for employees as well as deliveries and pickups,prohibit outdoor storage, and require that all activities are carried on within the principal building. This latter provision would rule out for example, those facilities that require large structures outside principal buildings, such as refineries. By establishing a maximum size for the lot (possibly five acres), maximum building and impervious coverage (60 and 75 percent, respectively), a maximum height of two stories, and a maximum FAR of.5 or less, the municipality is assured that the light industry would generate a minimum amount of traffic and have limited impact on the surrounding area. Additional requirements could be established to further define light and heavy industry. For instance, many states allow municipalities to impose higher performance standards than those required by state law. Noise standards could be -J 4 a �j Mayor and Members of City Commission December 4, 1998 established that prohibit any noise above a certain decibel rating beyond the walls of the building, with a different standard for light and heavy industrial zones. Air quality requirements could similarly be increased. Given the difficulty in enforcing the standards and determining when violations take place, the most practical approach is to establish bulk and intensity standards that limit the size and bulk of the building and consequently the impact. Finally, specific use categories can be included to rule out certain uses that would not be permitted regardless of intensity or impact. For example, manufacturing of certain toxic gases or chemicals would not be a permitted use regardless of the size of the facility. We note that the Comprehensive Plan Definitions need not be as detailed as Zoning Code Definitions. In order to now more clearly effectuate the Commission's apparent legislative intent to define light industrial and heavy industrial uses, and revise the recommended policies, we recommend that the relevant plan language be changed as follows: Light Industrial Use. Business activity which is predominantly connected with assembling or storage of small machine parts, electronics, and communications equipment where all activities are carried on within an enclosed building, and deliveries and pickups are made from enclosed trucks or vans. The equipment used in the light industrial manufacturing process do not typically contemplate large machines, generate significant emissions of toxic or regulated gases, or the use of bulk chemical combinations (i.e. light industrial buildings typically do not have smokestacks and on-site bulk chemical mixing is not contemplated). Light Industrial business operations are not objectionable because of noise, heavy truck traffic, fumes, vibration, glare, etc. Emphasis is primarily related to an activity other than manufacturing. Marine Industrial. Marine industrial uses are designed to accommodate marine and marine-related industries which, when necessary(for example, as a result of the size of the boat or yacht) and allowed, may take place outside of a building. Included are light industrial and research uses that are conducted within completely enclosed buildings and which have limited impact outside of buildings. Marine Industrial uses include: marinas; boat and yacht dealers and showrooms; boat and yacht brokers; repair and building of boats,yachts, and marine engines and equipment; sail making and repair; storage, repair, and building of marine parts and accessories; Mayor and Members of City Commission December 4, 1998 boat and yacht cleaning, maintenance, and painting; and, transportation and ticketing facilities. Heavy Industrial. Business whose activities are predominantly connected with manufacturing, assembling,processing, or storage, which business is not included within the definition of Light Industrial or Marine Industrial. If a particular operation or use can be classified as a Light Industrial or Heavy Industrial, it shall be classified as Heavy Industriall, Heavy Industrial Uses can have outdoor operations or storage, and are not limited to the small machine parts, communications, and electronic businesses. We also recommend that the new Plan Policy Limiting Future Heavy Industrial Uses and encouraging quality Marine Industrial Use development be revised and added respectively as follows: Heavy Industrial Uses. The City shall not encourage additional Heavy Industrial Development. After January 1, 1999, Heavy Industrial Uses will be allowed only when they offer significant gains and opportunities to the City (in terms of employment opportunity, increased tax base, an enhancement to the City's growing reputation as a significant commerce location for the Marine Industry, or the provision of services and goods deemed necessary and desirable for Dania Beach's citizenry as distinguished from the citizens of Broward County or Southeast Florida), and when such Industrial Uses are planned designed, and built to minimize adverse secondary impacts of noise, outdoor activities, environmental pollution, vibration, dust, odors, traffic generation, or other physical activity. In evaluating heavy Industrial Use development, the City may require more than the minimum setback landscaping, open space, and pervious area requirements, and less than the maximum building height and lot coverage requirements to minimize or offset negative secondary impacts. Marine Industrial Uses. The City shall encourage additional Marine Industrial development. In doing so, Marine Industrial development shall be planned, designed, and built to be as fully enclosed in buildings as is reasonably possible and to minimize adverse secondary impacts of noise, outdoor activities, environmental pollution, vibration, dust, odors, traffic generation, or other physical activity. In evaluating Marine industrial development, the City may require more than the minimum setback landscaping, open space, and pervious area requirements, and less than the maximum building height and lot coverage requirements to minimize or offset negative secondary impacts.

PUBLIC HEARINGS 3.1 "A RESOLUTION PERTAINING TO THE SUBJECT OF COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING; PROPOSED AMENDMENTS DAN A BEACH COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AUTHORIZING TRANSMITTAL OF AMENDMENTSSUCH OP REQUESTING INTERGOVERNMENTAL REVIEW GOVERNMENTAL OF SUCH PROPOSED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENTS; AUTHORIZING THE DIRECTOR OF GROWTH MANAGEMENT TO PROCESS SUCH PROPOSED PLAN AMENDMENTS; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE THEREFOR." Terry Virta, Growth Management Director, stated that Planning Consultant Leigh Kerr had addressed the previous concerns of the Commission. He also mentioned that the City Attorney had prepared a memo regarding the use of hotels and motels, residential designated land uses and heavy industrial land uses. Leigh Kerr stated that the concerns expressed at the last meeting had been addressed in the updated plan. He stated that on Page 8 of the Land Use Element "power plant substations" was stricken under Public Utilities, but should not be, because it is an excluded use. He mentioned the memo submitted by the City Attorney with regard to definitions for hotel, motel and penal type institutions, and recommended that the definitions be included as part of the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Kerr also recommended the Inclusion of a policy that would prohibit penal, correctional and re-entry facilities in the residential, commercial, industrial, downtown development 1 district, office park, employment center and community facilities land use designation. In response to Commissioner Mikes' concern about not including a provision for linear parks, Mr. Kerr stated that a new Policy, 3.2, had been added under Drainage, Tab 4, Page 17 of the Plan, that indicates "develop enhancements to drainage for the area" along SE 5 Avenue. He also stated that under Recreation and Open Space, Tab 7, Page 6 of the Plan, Objective VI had been added to "develop a linear park on SE 5 Avenue." Mr. Kerr recommended that "Airport 10" Plat be changed from Industrial to Employment Center. In response to Commissioner Mikes, Mr. Kerr stated that Employment Center would be more compatible with the area. Commissioner Mikes recommended that a sentence be added to help define Light Industrial Use as uses in general that are more environmentally compatible with adjoining high quality commercial or residential use. He also recommended that on Page 5 of the City Attorney's memo under the paragraph entitled Light Industrial Use, that wording be added at the end of the next to last sentence to read "or any other criteria which would be incompatible with nearby residential or upscale commercial". On Page 2 of the City Attorney's memo, Vice-Mayor Etling expressed concern about the definition of Motel where it stated "motor vehicle traveling transients who typically stay one night", and felt that it would indicate that the City was encouraging single night stays. He recommended that the wording be changed to "one to seven nights". CITY OF DANIA BEACH MINUTES 4 DECEMBER 8, 1998 I 7 On Page 4 of the City Attorney's memo, Vice-Mayor Etling stated that the word "vibration" was included in Heavy Industry but was not included in Light Industry, as an objectionable side effect. Attorney Ansbro stated that it was an oversight and would be added under Light Industry. On Page 5 of the City Attorney's memo, Vice-Mayor Etling was concerned about the use of the word "contemplate" and "contemplated" under Light Industrial Use. Mr. Kerr recommended that the words be changed to "permit" and "permitted". On Page 6 of the City Attorney's memo, Vice-Mayor Etling stated that under Heavy Industrial Uses -the words "Industrial Uses are planned" should be changed to "Industrial Use facilities are planned". Under the same paragraph, Vice-Mayor Etling recommended that the wording "less than the maximum building height" be changed to "less than the otherwise maximum allowable building height". He also recommended the same change be made under the Marine Industrial Uses paragraph. Vice-Mayor Etling recommended that a statement be added dealing with disposal or recycling farilities, preferably prohibiting them. Commissioner Mikes had concerns with transmitting the Traffic Circulation Element before it is updated. Commissioner Bertino suggested that the Traffic Circulation Element be deleted until it is updated. Under Page 22 of Section 1 of the Comprehensive Plan, Commissioner Mikes suggested that Paragraph 1 be changed from "Broward County Commission" to "City of Dania Beach". Under Paragraph 2, he asked for language to be added to protect the existing residential areas in the air transport corridors so as to be compatible with existing Dania land uses. Under Paragraph 3, Commissioner Mikes questioned the sentence "No principal building may be permitted, nor may any land use which impedes the future construction for an expressway be allowed." He recommended that the sentence be deleted if it is not absolutely necessary to be consistent with the County Land Use Plan. He also made the suggestion to change the wording to "impedes the construction of an existing highway project", if possible. Mayor Cali opened the public hearing. David Reich of SW 42 Street commended the Commission on their efforts. Mayor Cali closed the public hearing. On Page 8 of the Housing Element, Commissioner Mikes recommended changing the sentence under Policy 1.4 as follows: "Establish incentives for stabilization of neighborhoods and identification of programs which would encourage home ownership and redevelopment of aging neighborhoods." CITY OF DANIA BEACH MINUTES 5 DECEMBER 8, 1998 A motion was made by Vice-Mayor Etling, seconded by Commissioner Mikes, to -.� approve Item 3.1 with the recommended additions and changes.

(SECOND READING) City Manager Smith explained that this was the enabling ordinance that enacts the terms of the collective bargaining agreement that has been reached with the International Association of Firefighters. He reported that there would be no cost increase in the first year; that the cost would be $145,000 in the second year; and $153,000 the third year. Commissioner Mikes stated that items on the agenda were taken out of order and was concerned that the public was not able to speak on public hearing items due to the late hour of 1:00 a.m. and felt that it was inappropriate to hold the remainder of the public hearings, and thereby made a motion to continue the remainder of the public hearings. The motion died due to the lack of a second. A motion was made by Commissioner Hyde, seconded by Vice-Mayor Etling to continue the meeting to 1:00 a.m. The motion passed with Commissioner Mikes voting no. Mayor Cali opened the Public Hearing. Hearing no one speak in favor or opposition, Mayor Cali closed the public hearing. Commissioner Mikes expressed his concern about the cost of fire fighting services getting too expensive. He compared the general employee's pension plan regarding disability benefits to the IAFF pension plan and felt that it was very disproportionate. A motion was made by Vice-Mayor Etling, seconded by Commissioner Bertino to approve Item 3.2. The motion passed on the following roll call vote: CITY OF DANIA BEACH MINUTES 6 DECEMBER 8, 1998 i CITY OF DANIA PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN UPDATE A Public Hearing will be conducted by the Planning and Zoning Board, as the City of Dania's Local Planning Agency, relating to the transmittal of updates to the City of Dania's Comprehensive Land Use Plan to the State of Florida,Department of Community Affairs.

David Reich, Jay Field and Patricia Hart were sworn in and spoke regarding changes they would like to see in the update of the comprehensive plan. Concerns regarding the parks and recreation element speaking to the quality of the park, Leigh stated that he would add some policies that would speak to the upgrading of parks and recreational facilities. Recommendations changing the residential land use on property located at the NW corner of Griffin Rd. and Ravenswood Rd. to commercial. Also, concern about the property along Sheridan Street west of US 1 having a continued residential zoning was heard, it was suggested that it be changed to commercial. Concern about the Jai Alai property being changed to a higher density was heard, also property to the south of the old trails end trailer park site was recommended to be rezoned to a use such as Employment Center. In a recap of the recommendations the following was incorporated into the recommendation by the Planning and Zoning board: Enhancement of the quality of the Parks under the Parks and Recreation Element; Intergovernmental Element to speak to an expansion of the policy for annexation of selected 1 Planning and Zoning Board 1 November 5, 1998 SPECIAL MEETING MINUTES properties as appropriate; The Airport 10 property to be changed from Industrial -,1 to Employment Center; Change the property on Ravenswood Rd. to the North of Griffin from Residential to Commercial, Leigh interjected that before changes are made to lands currently residential to commercial, further study would be necessary.

INTRODUCTION The purpose of the Future Land Use Element for the City of Dania Beach is to identify the future land uses which will enable the City to attain the standards outlined in its Goals, Objectives and Policies. The Land Use Element also serves to link the balance of the elements of the City Comprehensive Plan. II. EXISTING LAND USE DATA REQUIREMENTS The City of Dania Beach consists of approximately 3 6.25 square miles (3,000 4,500 acres) and extends approximately 3 4 miles east to west and 3 miles north to south. The City includes a portion of ocean front in the east disconnected from the balance of the City. Dania Beach is one of 28 29 incorporated municipalities within Broward County. Dania Beach is situated south of Fort Lauderdale; north of Hollywood and east of an Unincorporated Area. There are several major arterial roadways which transect the City north/south and east/west. The most significant highway is 1-95 in the western portion of the City. The other major roadways within the City include U.S. #1, Dania Beach Boulevard, Cmffin Road, Stirling Road, Sheridan Street, the eastern terminus of 1-595 touches the northeast tip of the City and the northwest tip of the City intersects with State Road#84 and 1-595. Approximately 69% 80% of the City is in a built condition which leaves about 345% 20% of the City's land vacant and available for future growth and development. Table I identifies the existing land uses within the City as of 498-7-1997 and Table II provides the existing land uses in further detail by flexibility zone. The following existing land use key identifies each of the various uses on Tables I and II. The existing land use map depicts the location of the land uses. Existing Land Use Key Code Category SF Single Family detached(1-5 du/ac) MF-1 Multi-Family(moderate)(6-25 du/ac) MH Mobile Homes(7 du/ac) C Commercial I Industrial Use R-1 Private Recreation R-2 Public Recreation U Utilities CF Community Facilities T Transportation V Vacant or Undeveloped Land R}z Reek Pit AG Agricultural (includes plant nurseries) 1 _J I The following will further analyze the different characteristics of the existing land uses within the community: A. Residential Development Residential uses represent approximately 900 1,312 acres or 30% 35% of the existing community. Of this amount there is a twe/ene an approximate 50/50 split of residential types between low density multi-family and single family. B. Commercial Development Commercial land use consists of approximately 300 462 acres or about 40% 12% of the City. The commercial component consists primarily of retail sales, but also includes some wholesale trade, offices, restaurants, service outlets, automobile service facilities and the like. C. Industrial The existing industrial acreage within the City represents about 390 584 acres or about 40% 15% of the City. Most of the industrial activities occur in the western portions of the City along I-95; SR 84 and eastern portion of the City along the Dania Cut-off canal and Port Everglades. D. Recreation/Conservation The City contains 290 422 acres of recreational facilities which represent 71% 12% of the City. Also, private club houses are located within communities which provide a full range of recreational opportunities for those residents. Dania Jai-Alai is also located within the City which is a unique commercial recreation use. E. Community Facilities There are a substantial number of community facilities within the community consisting of almost 2-50 114 acres or 8% 3% of the City. These include a variety of public school facilities including Collins and Dania Beach Elementaries and Olsen Middle School. F. Historical Resources As noted and listed in the housing element there are several historical sites which have been identified by the City. 2 I G. Vacant Vacant land consists of almost 4-,000 700 acres or as noted earlier 3&% 20% vaof the City. The majority of the vacant land is occurring in three parts of the City. The western pertien I-95 corridor of the community consists primarily of industrially designated land and east of the airport industrially oriented uses are permitted. and The west and southeastern par# parts of the City contains residentially designated lands. Portions of the east and southeast areas are impacted by the existence of mangroves (wetland communities) which require permitting through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Florida Department of Environmental Regulatien Protection and Broward County Department of Natural Resource Protection. H. Population Projections The City utilizes the population projections developed by the Broward County Office of Planning and University of Florida BEBR: 4985 49933 2000 2040 2005 199511, 1998 m Resident 4-"-5-I QLM 18,783 12;342 19,741 17,201 17,705 Seasenal ' M 'M ' (1)University of Florida BEBR M. ANALYSIS REQUIREMENTS-9J- 5.006(2) A. Available Facilities The following will provide an analysis of the availability of facilities and services to serve the existing land uses which were outlined in the Data Requirements section and land for which development orders have been issued. 1. Traffic Circulation As noted in the Traffic Circulation Element, the City of Dania Beach is transected by a variety of federal, state and county highways. This series of roadway systems handles the majority of total traffic demand within the City while only a small portion use collector and local streets. These collector and local streets are those which are administered and maintained by the City of Dania Beach. 3 There are no problems or deficiencies on the local roadway system at the present time. Accordingly, the existing land uses within the community including those with development permits are adequately served by a smooth and efficient traffic circulation system at the local level. 2. Sanitary Sewer The City subscribed to the Broward County 201 program and is now only responsible for the development, expansion and maintenance of a collection system and transmission of wastewater to the Hollywood 201 Plant. The City's wastewater flow is consistent with its agreement with the City of Hollywood and its 201 system. Broward County serves the area west of Ravenswood Road. The City maintains an adequate level of service for the existing and committed development within the City. 3. Solid Waste The City has franchised solid waste disposal with a private company. is pFesendy fin i ..a at the ,..,we,. BFewaFd Eeunty. The City is has enteFing-entered into a contract with Reuter, Inc. to provide feture solid waste disposal. � er„�--,,.,e . At the present time the City has an adequate collection and disposal system which provides the proper level of service for the existing community and committed development within the community. 4. Drainage The drainage system within the City of Dania Beach is composed of canals and lakes which discharge to the Dania Cut-off Canal and the C-10 Canal. These canals ultimately discharge into the Atlantic Ocean. The entire drainage system is managed by both the South Florida Water Management District, the Broward County Water Resources Management Division and the City Engineer. The drainage system has adequately protected the existing community. 5. Potable Water At the present time the water treatment plant has a design capacity of 3.0 mgd with present operating level 2-.2 2.8 mgd reflecting an adequate level of service. There are three areas of the City where distribution deficiencies have been identified. The City requires existing deficiencies to be addressed at the time of development. The existing and committed developments are adequately served with potable water. a 4 i J 6. Natural Groundwater Aquifer Recharge Broward County has embarked upon a wellfield Protection program which prohibits and/or regulates hazardous toxic substances within areas that may impact public utility water supply wellfields. The City of Dania Beach ' Dn. 1. .. he ene of theeitiesto has connected to the County's regional raw water system which is supplements the City wells for requirements above 2 mgd. The City also requires water conserving fixtures on new construction which will further protect the natural groundwater for the City of Dania Beach. The City also implements emergency plans when drought conditions warrant which are in conformance with the South Florida Water Management Districts plans and policies. B. Vacant Analysis This segment of the report analyzes the character and magnitude of the existing vacant or undeveloped land to determine suitability for use. 1. Vacant Inventory Table III provides an inventory of the vacant land within the community as of January, 49P 1997 by land use. As noted previously in the Comprehensive Plan the City contains approximately 4099 700 acres of vacant land or about 34% 20% of the City remains undeveloped and available for development. A vast majority of the vacant land is generally available for industrial/marine development. It may also be suitable for other commercial or light and clean industrial uses and comprises over 50% of the available land. The balance of the vacant land is represented by a mix of various residential categories, commercial, community facilities and utilities. As noted in Table III, flexibility zones 58, 79, 81, 83 and 84 contain virtually all the vacant land presently occurring within the City of Dania Beach. Flex zone 79 represents primarily the employment center base for the City of Dania Beach with many existing industrial and marine industry related facilities currently existing. plus a Flex zone 83 represents primarily the western portion of Dania Beach and the majority of the vacant land in this area is industrial in nature. This flexibility zone is split by Interstate 95. ,R s--;;ate dies Flexibility zone 84 in the southeastern portion of the City of Dania Beach contains primarily a mix of various levels of residential land generally ranging in planned densities of Estate Residential up to High Residential. Flexibility zone 58 contains a significant commercial/industrial base along S.R. 84 and west of the airport. 5 2. Physiography, Drainage and Minerals I Dania Beach is nearly level in topography. The soils are underlain by limestone which is porous allowing water to move through it laterally for long distances. The major drainage basins effecting Dania Beach are the C-10 Canal and the Dania Cut-off Canal. These canals are under the management and control of the South Florida Water Management District. Physiography, topography and drainage provide no impediments to development within any of the flex zones.-Physiography, topography and drainage provide no impediments to development within any of the flex zones. 3. Soils and Wetlands Soils are an important factor which affect development potential of land. Within the City of Dania Beach there are a variety of soil types occurring; however, for the undeveloped portions of the City there are only two soil types that require some modification prior to construction. These soils are the perrine and pennsucco series. The perrine series consists of nearly level, poorly drained soils on coastal lowlands. The pennsucco series consists of nearly level, and very poorly drained soils on coastal lowlands and swamps. Both of these soils typically contain wetland species which require permitting through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Florida Department of Environmental Regulation, rand Broward County Environmental Quality Board prior to an issuance of any development permit. Many of these wetland areas have been substantially impacted } over time and are experiencing a great deal of stress. The two (2) areas within the City which contain these soil types are portions of flexibility zones 79 and 84. The areas within flexibility zone 79 which contain a higher degree of wetland vegetation are north and east of Taylor Road. In flexibility 84 the areas containing a higher percentage of wetland vegetation are the areas east of S. E. 5th Avenue and S. Dania Beach Boulevard. Most of this property has been acquired by Broward County as the Dania Salt Marsh. Within these areas significant care must be taken to insure that any development proposal within these regions not only obtain the necessary wetland permitting, but is also sensitive to the need for mitigation off site and on site protective measures which would enhance the overall biological integrity of the site and area. This would enhance the ability of these areas to serve as wildlife habitat and thereby conserving natural resources occurring within the community. The soils within flexibility zones 81 and 83 have been altered over time and are primarily in an urban profile. There is no wetland vegetation within this area accept what may be occurring along the lake edges of the existing excavations within the flex zone. As noted above, the primary concerns for the development of vacant lands as it relates to soils are the two (2) areas within flex zone 79 and 84 which contain existing wetland vegetation which must be conserved and enhanced by the City. The City pee acre whir latitude to ensure prepef eenseFvatien efthis area. 1 � i 4. Wellfields The Broward County Water Resources Management Division is responsible for the development of a comprehensive future well field study. There are no future sites in the City. and existing wells have been aeaeti at 5. Lakes, Beaches and Shores All the beach front property within the City of Dania Beach is held in public ownership. There is a lease agreement for a restaurant/shopping facility on a portion of the City ownership; however, this does not impact the existing beaches or shores. Further, there is no contemplated development within the beaches or shores area. The estuarine system within the City is minimal and primarily related to some mangrove communities as previously pointed out in the soils and wetlands portion of this analysis. Many of these mangrove areas have been substantially impacted and are of mixed variety. There is however, a substantial healthy mangrove community within the City of Hollywood immediately east of Dania Beach. The vast majority of this area is in public ownership and is known as West Lake Park. It consists of approximately 2,000 acres. In addition, Broward County acquired the Dania Salt Marsh east of Southeast 5'hAvenue between Dania Beach Boulevard and Sheridan Street. All of the rivers, bays and lakes within the community are man-made. The rivers are primarily the drainage canal system and the lakes were excavated to meet fill requirements for development both in and outside the City of Dania Beach. There are no harbors within the City of Dania Beach other than marine yacht basins which are situated along Dania Cut-off Canal. 6. Historical Resources The historical resources have been identified in the Housing Element and on the existing Land Use Plan of the Comprehensive Plan. As the historic resources are existing structures, no vacant land development will impact these historic resources. C. Land Requirements This portion of the land use analysis relates to the amount of land needed to accommodate the projected population. Table III identifies by type the vacant land within the City. The following description of the land use categories and related density is provided. 1. Permitted Uses for the City of Dania Beach Land Use Plan i The Land Use Plan is attached as an atlas and is hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. The Land Use Plan indicates a land use classification for each area in the municipality. Within each classification, there are a variety of uses that J may be permitted. The community reserves the right to further restrict all uses through ll its zoning ordinances. The permitted uses outlined in this section enumerate the uses _„✓ that may be allowed by the City's Zoning Ordinances. _J 7 a. Residential Use The areas designated for residential use on the Future Land Use Map are intended primarily for dwellings, but other land uses related to a residential environment, including neighborhood shopping centers, neighborhood parks and schools may also be appropriate therein. Uses permitted in areas designated residential are as follows: o Dwelling units, subject to the density limits for a parcel as designated on the Future Land Use Plan Map and as explained in the following subsection entitled"Residential Density". • Home occupations and other uses accessory to a dwelling unit. o Hotels, motels and similar lodging on parcels of property designated Low Medium (10) or higher. The maximum number of hotel, motel or similar lodging units permitted on any parcel designated for residential use is double the maximum number of dwelling units permitted by the land use plan map designation. o Parks, golf courses and other outdoor recreational facilities, and recreational, civic, or other cultural buildings ancillary to primary outdoor recreational use of the site. o Community facilities designed to serve the City's residential area such as schools, day care centers, churches, elinies, nursing homes, rehabilitation een", governmental administration, police and fire protection facilities, libraries and civic centers. o I?ublie Utilities, excluding including water and wastewater treatment plants, pumping stations power plant substations and transmission facilities and solid waste disposal and transfer stations; hazardous (medical and similar uses) waste. • Communication facilities. i • Penal, correctional, and re-entry facilities are prohibited. • Agriculture. o Offices and/or retail sales of merchandise or services, subject to the following limitations and provisions: No more than a total of five (5%) percent of the area designated for residential use on the Future Broward County Land Use Plan Map (Series) within a flexibility zone may be used for offices and/or retail sales of merchandise or services. No contiguous area used for offices and/or retail sales of merchandise or services may exceed ten (10) acres. For the purpose of this provision, g i I contiguous is defined as: attached; located within 200 500 feet; or separated only by streets and highways, canals and rivers or easements. • On parcels of land designated by the City Land Use Plan at a residential density of at least ten (10) dwelling units per gross area, recreational vehicle sites at a maximum density of the maximum number of dwelling units designated for the parcel by the City Land Use Plan if location of recreational vehicles on the parcel of land for more than six months in any twelve month period is permitted, or double such number of dwelling units if such location for more than six months in any twelve month period is prohibited; and • Special Residential Facilities; subject to: meeting one of the Category definitions as contained in the Special Residential Facilities Permitted Uses subsection; meeting density provisions by Category type stated below; and the limitations as expressed by the land use plan map; and if applicable, the provisions regarding the use and allocation of reserve units, flexibility units or bonus sleeping rooms. Density Provisions: Special Residential Facility Category (1) development shall count as one (1) dwelling unit each. • Special Residential Facility Category (2) development shall count as two (2) dwelling units each. • Special Residential Facility Category (3) development shall count as one (1) dwelling unit per every two (2) sleeping rooms regardless of the number of kitchens or baths. 1. Residential Density a. Density Standards Residential areas are shown on the Future Land Use Map according to eight ranges of density: e The Estate (1) Residential category permits up to one (1) dwelling unit per gross acre(reserved). • The Low (2) Residential category permits up to two (2) dwelling units per gross acre(reserved). • The Low(3)Residential category permits up to three (3) dwelling units per gross acre. • The Low (5) Residential category permits up to five (5) dwelling units per gross acre. J 9 • The Low-Medium (10) Residential category permits up to ten (10) dwelling units per gross acre. The Medium (16) Residential category permits up to sixteen (16) dwelling units per gross acre. • The Medium-High (25) Residential category permits up to twenty-five (25) dwelling units per gross acre. Other land use categories and land uses are subject to density standards as follows: • Special Residential Facilities are subject to the density standards contained within applicable land use categories in the Permitted Uses subsection. • Recreational vehicle sites are subject to the density standards contained within applicable land use categories in the Permitted Uses subsection. • Hotels, motels and similar lodging are subject to the density standards contained within applicable land use categories in the Permitted Uses subsection. b. Density Calculation All references to density within the Future Land Use Plan means gross density. Gross density means the number of dwelling units constructed or proposed within an area, divided by the gross acreage of the area. Gross acreage means the total number of acres in an area, including acreage used or proposed for streets lakes, waterways, and other proposed land uses permitted in residential areas by the Future Land Use Plan.

Arrangement of Dwelling Units Any arrangement of dwelling units on a parcel of land designated for residential use is compatible with the Dania Beach Land Use Plan as long Ili ..I 10 as the maximum number of dwelling units permitted within the parcel is not exceeded. For example, the Dania Beach Land Use Plan does not regulate whether a developer uses 100 acres of land designated for Low (5) Residential density to build 500 single family homes or whether the same 100 acres are used to build a 500 unit high-rise structure, with the balance of the land maintained as permanent open space. The distribution of units will be determined by local zoning and land development regulations. d. Dashed-Line Areas Some areas have been marked on the Future Land Use Plan Map by dashed lines circumscribing their edges. For each of these areas, the maximum overall density in dwelling units per acre is the number which appears in the circle inside the dashed line. That number can be multiplied by the number of acres inside the dashed line, including areas not designated for residential use, to ascertain the maximum number of dwelling units allowable within the dashed line. The dwelling units that are permitted within areas circumscribed by a dashed line may only be applied within the boundaries of the circumscribed area and may not be transferred. e. Flexibility Units "Flexibility units" means the difference between the number of dwelling units permitted within a flexibility zone by the Broward County Future Land Use Plan Map (Series) and the number of dwelling units permitted within the flexibility zone by the City's certified future land use plan map. Since the Dania Beach local land use plan map may be more restrictive than the Future Broward County Land Use Plan Map (Series) available flexibility units may be utilized by the City to rearrange residential densities. The maximum number of dwelling units permitted in a flexibility zone by the Dania Beach land use plan map shall not exceed the number of dwelling units permitted in the flexibility zone by the Future Broward County Land Use Plan Map(Series). E Reserve Units "Reserve units" mean additional permitted dwelling units equal up to two percent (2%) of the total number of dwelling units permitted within a flexibility zone by the Future Broward County Land Use Plan Map (Series). The number of reserve units in a flexibility zone will be fixed at the adoption of the Future Broward County Land Use Plan Map (Series). The number of reserve units assigned to a parcel designated for residential use on the Dania Beach Land Use Plan Map may not exceed 100% of the maximum number of dwelling units indicated for the parcel by the local J land use plan map. However, the land use plan, the zoning, and the 11 applicable land development regulations shall not permit any density higher than fifty(50) dwelling units per gross acre. b.

Commercial and retail business uses may also be permitted as long as the total area of these uses does not consume more than twenty (20%) percent of the employment center land designated on the Future Broward County Land Use Plan Map within a flexibility zone, and as long as the location of these uses do not preclude or adversely affect the future use of surrounding areas for employment center use. i i. Recreation and Open Space Use The primary intent of the recreation and open space category is to accommodate recreation and open space uses to serve public recreation needs. In general, land uses within this category are low intensity in character with a minimum of impervious surface coverage and retain as much natural vegetation and landscape as possible. Areas designated as recreation and open space on the Future Land Use Plan Map include existing public and private park sites and existing cemetery sites intended to remain as permanent open space. Those uses permitted in areas designated recreation and open space are as follows: • Passive recreational uses, including, but not limited to nature centers and trails, scenic areas, wildlife sanctuaries and feeding stations, aquatic preserves, and picnic areas. • Golf courses which are intended to remain as permanent open space. • Camping ground and facilities. I ) 20 • Cemeteries • Active recreational uses, including, but not limited to tennis courts, playgrounds, swimming pools, athletic fields and courts, beaches and bikeways. • Outdoor cultural, educational and civic facilities, including, but not limited to animal exhibits, habitats and bandshells and outdoor classrooms. • Concessions only when accessory to the above uses. j. Community Facilities Use Community Facilities areas are designated on the Future Land Use Plan Map to provide a full range of regional and community uses such as educational, medical, governmental, religious, civic, cultural, judicial, and correctional facilities. Community facilities may be permitted at the discretion of Dania Beach in areas designated residential, commercial, office park, agricultural, industrial, and employment center. Civic and cultural buildings may also be permitted in areas designated for recreation and open space use if they are ancillary to the primary recreation use of the site. Uses permitted in areas designated community facilities are as follows: • Community facilities uses such as schools, churches, hospitals, governmental administration, police and fire stations, libraries, civic centers,-pfiseas and courts, nursing homes, cemeteries, and parks and recreation facilities. • Special Residential Facility Category(2)developments as defined in the "Definitions" subsection subject to the allocation of two (2) reserve or flexibility units in accordance with the Special Residential Facilities provisions. • Special Residential Facility Category (3) developments as defined in the "Definitions subsection; subject to the allocation of reserve units or flexibility units in accordance with the Special Residential Facilities Provisions each flexibility or reserve unit shall permit two (2) sleeping rooms regardless of the number of kitchens or baths. • Penal, correctional, and re-entry facilities are prohibited. i 21 A k. Transportation Use Existing airports, Port Everglades, and existing and proposed expressways are designated transportation on the Future Land Use Plan Map. Those uses permitted in areas designated transportation are as follows. 1. Port Everglades Transportation Area Shipping, warehousing, and, with the exception of residential uses, all other uses which may be permitted by the Pert E. eFgla es Autherity City of Dania Beach which are consistent with tourism, international trade, and marine commerce. 2. Air Transportation Areas Airports and related facilities, which are compatible with existing residential areas and Dania Beach land uses, and designed primarily to serve the needs of airport users and airport employees, airport and aircraft operation and maintenance facilities, cargo distribution terminals, transit warehousing, other compatible uses, and those land uses, except permanent residences, permitted in the recreation and open space, commercial recreation and agricultural land use categories. 3. Expressways Uses of an impermanent nature such as agriculture, nurseries, grazing, non-required parking, open storage and parks are permitted in proposed expressways. Such provisions are intended to provide owners of property within proposed expressways with limited uses that do not interfere with the long term pubic goal of acquiring rights-of-way for expressway purposes. ressway be 811AWPO Proposed expres1­1sways shall have an underlying residential land use designations., Onless . ...W Woe._"'qp botla.sldes by . tesii..... l iattd'', rise'des�gnakons The underlying density credited to the expressway shall be equal to the density of the adjacent residential land use designation. In cases where the proposed expressway is bordered by residential land use designations of different densities, the adjacent density shall be residential land use designations of different densities, the adjacent density shall apply up to the mid-point of the right-of-way. Residential units may not be constructed within the proposed 22 J expressway. However, the densities accruing to the proposed expressway may be transferred to adjacent parcels if the owner dedicates the right-of-way to a governmental agency for expressway uses. If a formal determination has been made by the Broward County Board of County Commissioners that the proposed expressway will not be constructed, the land uses permitted within the expressway corridor shall be those permitted by the adjacent Land use designation as determined by the appropriate local government entity through the Broward Planning Council (re)certification process. I. Utilities Use Utilities are designated on the Future Land Use Plan Map to ensure the availability of land necessary to provide an adequate level of utility service to meet the current and future needs of Dania Beach. Utilities are also allowed in areas designated residential, commercial, office park, industrial, and employment center,-regienel Uses permitted in areas designated utilities are as follows: • Utilities stations,elee and tfaffif t-statiens. • Other uses determined to be ancillary to the primary uses described in above(1* The following uses may also be permitted in the areas designated utilities as long as the location of these uses does not preclude or adversely affect the future use of the surrounding areas for utility facilities: • Recreation and open space uses • Non-residential agricultural uses • Communication facilities m. Communication Facilities Communication facilities such as television and radio stations and relay structures and telephone facilities are not specifically designated on the 1 23 i 1 Future Land Use Plan Map as a separate category. Such facilities may be permitted in areas designated under the following categories: • Residential • Commercial • Industrial • Office Park • Employment Center n. Special Residential Facilities The Broward County Land Use Plan defines categories of Special Residential Facilities, in accordance with Broward County Ordinance 85- 92, for the purpose of determining permitted locations and density standards. Special Residential Facilities development such as group homes and foster care facilities are defined by category type below and are subject when applicable, to the Special Residential Facilities provisions and allocation of reserve, flexibility, or bonus sleeping rooms. Dania Beach may permit a maximum of one hundred (100) "bonus" sleeping rooms consistent with Broward County Ordinance 85-92, that are permanently dedicated to Special Residential use without allocating density. Special residential facilities are not specifically designated on the Future Land Use Plan Map as a separate land use category. Special residential facilities are permitted within limitations as stated in the Permitted Uses section of this plan in the following land use categories: • Residential • Commercial • Office Park • Community Facilities Broward County does not encourage local governments to locate special residential facilities in commercial, office park or community facilities areas. Special residential facilities s hould be integrated into residential neighborhoods. However, due to the need to locate special residential I J 24 facilities, the Broward County Land Use Plan recognizes that, in some instances, local governments may have need to allocate special residential facilities in these areas. Definitions of Special Residential Facilities Categories: Category (1) means: a housing facility which is licensed by the State of Florida for no more than eight (8) individuals who require treatment, care, rehabilitation or education. The facility is usually referred to as a group home. This includes individuals who are elderly, dependent children, physically disabled, developmentally disabled or individuals not overtly of harm to themselves or others. The facility provides a family living environment including supervision and care necessary to meet the physical, emotional and social needs of the individuals. It may or may not provide education or training. There may be more than one kitchen within the housing facility. There may be more than one Special Residential Facility Category (1) development on a parcel. Category (2) means: a housing facility which is licensed by the State of Florida for nine (9) to sixteen (16) non-elderly individuals who require treatment, care, rehabilitation or education. This includes individuals who are dependent children, physically disabled, developmentally disabled or individuals not overtly of harm to themselves or others. The facility provides a family living environment including supervision and care necessary to meet the physical, emotional and social needs of the individuals. It may or may not provide education or training. There may be more than one kitchen within the housing facility. There may be more than one Special Facility Category (2) development on a parcel. Category (3) means: • Any housing facility licensed by the State of Florida for more than sixteen (16) non-elderly individuals who require treatment, care, rehabilitation or education. This includes individuals who are dependent children, physically disabled, developmentally disabled or individuals not overtly of harm to themselves or others; o Any housing facility licensed by the State of Florida for more than eight (8)unrelated elderly individuals; • Governmentally subsidized housing facilities entirely devoted to care of the elderly, dependent children, the physically handicapped, developmentally disabled or individuals not overtly of harm to themselves or others; • Any non-for-profit housing facility for unrelated elderly individuals; .J 2$ J Any housing facility which provides a life-care environment. A life— care environment shall include, but is not limited to, creation of a life estate in the facility itself and provision of off-site or on-site medical care. o. Conservation Use: Conservation areas are designated on the Future Land Use Plan Map to protect natural reservations. While the City of Dania Beach historically was a farming community, the expansion in development of Broward County and the intrusion of salt water has rendered the property to be unsuitable for future farming activities. Accordingly no agricultural uses have been indicated on the Land Use Plan. Also, while there are a significant number of park and recreational lands identified on the Plan there are no public ownerships which are being considered for conservation designation and accordingly no conservation designation is indicated on the Future Land Use Map. Education, public buildings and grounds and other public facilities have already been designated as Community Facilities on the Land Use Map. While there are designated historical properties within the City of Dania Beach there is no designated historical district within the City of Dania Beach. D. Land Needs To support the Year 4-99 2000 projections of approximately -7-,300 10,000 units within the community, the associated land need requirements are anticipated to be approximately -0 40 acres. This is established utilizing the average new starts for housing within the community of about 90 per year and recognizes the prederninete mix of housing from the period of 4380 1988 to 49,P 1997 which reflects a substantial number of multi-family permits (91%51%)against single family permit issuance of about 9%38%. E. Redevelopment The City of Dania Beach is a ene-e€-sirr-(6) target areas as identified in the Broward County Redevelopment Plan -Florida Statues 163. The Redevelopment Plan identifies the existing physical, social-economic and development conditions within the target area. The boundaries of the target area generally lie west of U.S. 1, south of Old Griffin Road, east of the C-10 Canal and north of the Sheridan Street. The 163 plan addresses the need for redevelopment within this area including renewal of blighted areas and the elimination or reduction of uses inconsistent with the community's character. In addition, the City of Dania Beach is fortunate to have significant opportunities for redevelopment within the community. Many of these have been identified in a recent study prepared by the City of Dania Beach. These types of redevelopment activities would be consistent with the Urban Infrll amendments and Eastward Ho movements currently ongoing in Southern Florida, and particularly Broward } County. The City will develop land development regulations that will be consistent I .J 26 with the permitted uses of the land use plan as it speaks to redevelopment and encouraging redevelopment in the City. F. Flood Prone Areas The City of Dania Beach has limited areas which are flood prone and any development or redevelopment within these areas would have to conform to the flood insurance rate maps. The City fully subscribes with the FEMA maps and all development must conform with those standards. G. Definitions Heavy Industrial. Business whose activities are predominantly connected with manufacturing, assembling, processing, or storage, which business is not included within the definition of Light Industrial or Marine Industrial. If a particular operation or use can be classified as a Light Industrial or Heavy Industrial, it shall be classified as Heavy Industrial. Heavy Industrial Uses can have outdoor operations or storage, and are not limited to the small machine parts, communications, and electronic businesses. Hotel. A building or part thereof, in which rental sleeping units are offered to the public where all charges for staying at the hotel (e.g. for food, lodging, and accessory services) are paid for by the room renter. Hotels maintain an inner lobby through which all occupants must pass to gain access. Hotel sleeping rooms are accessed solely through interior hallways, even when such units are on ground floors. Frequently guests stay more than one (1) night and typically hotels have amenities that cater to longer staying guests such as exercise rooms, spas, restaurants, meeting rooms, ballrooms, convention facilities, reading areas, and limited shopping areas. Hotels cater to transient occupancy, and may have limited kitchenette facilities (i.e., microwave, coffee maker, small sink, miniature refrigerator) for use by the occupants in rooms. Light Industrial Use. Business activity which is predominantly connected with assembling or storage of small machine parts, electronics, and communications equipment where all activities are carried on within an enclosed building, and deliveries and pickups are made from enclosed trucks or vans. Light industrial operations are typically of a size, scale and character which are virtually indistinguishable from operations conducted in office buildings, commercial buildings and commercial-office parks and complexes. The equipment used in the light industrial manufacturing process does not typically involve the use of large machines, generate significant emissions of toxic or regulated gases, or the use of bulk chemical combinations (i.e. light industrial buildings typically do not have smokestacks and on-site bulk chemical mixing is not contemplated). Light Industrial business operations are not objectionable because of noise, heavy 27 J truck traffic, fumes, vibration, glare, or other criteria which would be incompatible with residential or upscale commercial. Emphasis is primarily related to an activity other than manufacturing. Marine Industrial. Marine industrial uses are designed to accommodate marine and marine-related industries which, when necessary ( for example, as a result of the size of the boat or yacht) and allowed, may take place outside of a building. Included are light industrial and research uses that are conducted within completely enclosed buildings and which have limited impact outside of buildings. Marine Industrial uses include: marinas; boat and yacht dealers and showrooms; boat and yacht brokers; repair and building of boats, yachts, and marine engines and equipment; sail making and repair; storage, repair, and building of marine parts and accessories; boat and yacht cleaning, maintenance, and painting; and, transportation and ticketing facilities. Motel. A building, or series of buildings, being attached, semi-detached, or detached, in which rental sleeping units are offered to the public where all charges for staying at the motel (e.g. for food, lodging, and accessory services) are paid for by the room renter, and where each unit has convenient exterior access to a parking space for the use of the unit's occupants. Access to sleeping rooms is from the exterior of the building as opposed to through the interior. The rental sleeping units, with the exception of a dwelling unit for the manager or caretaker, are devoted predominantly to the use of motor vehicle traveling transients who typically stay one night. These units may have limited kitchenette facilities (i.e., microwave, coffee maker, small sink, miniature refrigerator) for use by the occupants in rooms. Penal Correctional and Re-Entry Facilities. The following are not considered a "hotel" or "motel, or a "police protective facility," or a "Community Facility", and instead, are hereby defined as being "Penal, Correctional, and Re-Entry Facilities, regardless of whether the uses are publicly, privately or charitably owned, operated, or subsidized: jails, correctional facilities, detention facilities, prison release facilities, convict or prisoner rehabilitation or societal re-introduction facilities (e.g. "halfway houses", supervised or structured living, working, or educational facilities), or facilities where residents are not confined or restrained but are free to leave the facility for work or personal needs subject to operative rules controlling residency on the premises and that provide community- based treatment to persons referred by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, a State Department of Corrections, or like federal or state agency,who need re-entry into the community, including drug and alcohol counseling and job placement assistance. 28 Solid waste facilities. The term "Solid waste facilities" means structures or systems designed for the collection, processing, recycling or disposal of solid waste, including hazardous waste, industrial waste, construction and demolition waste and biomedical waste. The term includes processing plants, recycling plants, disposal yards, landfills (of any class), compost areas (excluding residential backyard composting), composting facilities, construction and demolition debris recycling areas, construction and demolition debris recycling facilities, materials recovery facilities, monofills,solid waste combustors, solid waste disposal facilities, solid waste management facilities, tire recycling areas or facilities, volume reduction plants, waste tire collection centers, waste tire collectors, waste tire processing facilities, and waste tire sites. See F.A. C. s. 62-701 for the definitions of the foregoing terms. " Utilities. The term "Utilities" means those facilities needed to serve or which constitute a public or private utility, limited to the following: lines, valves, wells, water treatment plants, and injection wells which comprise a water service utility needed to serve Dania Beach citizens; gravity mains, force mains, manholes, lift stations, monitoring stations, needed to serve Dania Beach residents; electrical lines, poles, substations and transmission facilities which comprise an electric power utility needed to service Dania Beach residents; lines, valves, and equipment which comprise a liquid gas utility infrastructure needed to serve Dania Beach residents; lines, switching facilities, poles, communications towers, antennas and other appurtenances for telephone utility infrastructure to service Dania Beach residents; and lines, hub facilities, and satellite earth station receiving facilities, and other appurtenances necessary to comprise a cable television utility to service Dania Beach residents. Unless expressly indicated within a Future Land Use Element, the word "utilities" will not include plants for electric, gas, or telephone service, or solid waste facilities. IV.

INTRODUCTION The purpose of the Housing Element for the City of Dania Beach is to provide guidance to the City in developing appropriate plans and policies which will demonstrate its commitment to meet, identify, and project deficits in the supply of housing. This would include both the plans and policies of the government, including the City, as well as any direction or assistance which could be provided for the private sector. The Housing Element is prepared in three major sections: Data Requirements; Analysis; and Goals, Objectives, and Policies. H. DATA REQUIREMENTS - 9d-5.010(1) The information developed in this section of the Housing Element is primarily obtained from the United States Census -4-9W 1990, and supplemented by data prepared by the City of Dania Beach and Broward County. A. Housing Inventory -4980 1990 Table I provides an outline of the Housing Inventory for the City of Dania Beach as of 3-980 1995. The information is Provided by type of units including single family, two family, multi-family and mobile homes. 1. Single Family This includes detached housing units which provide a residence for one family. 2. Two Family Attached duplex housing which provide a residence for two families. 3. Multi-Family Housing All housing types except single family and duplex; examples of this would be: town houses, rental apartments, and condominiums(both multi story and single story). 4. Mobile Homes Mobile housing for permanent residential habitation. The housing inventory indicates as of 49N 1995 there were approximately 600 9,750 dwelling units within the City of Dania Beach. Single family dwellings represent 3"0 38% or approximately ^, 3,690 dwelling units, and multi-family 66% 51% or 3;40 5,000 dwelling units. There are also 1 approximately 400 1,060 mobile homes situated within the community primarily located in the northern reaches of the City. B. Characteristics of the 1980 Housing Stock 1. Unit Age Table II outlines the unit age of dwelling units within the City of Dania Beach by seven (7) separate age categories beginning from 1939 and running through 1980. Broward County totals are also provided. As reflected on Table II 85% 90% of the housing has been built since 1950 and approximately 6G% 76% of the housing has been built since 1960. As noted earlier in the Comprehensive Plan, the City of Dania Beach is one of the pioneer cities within Broward County and unit age is reflective of that as about 405%45% of the housing was built by 4W 1970. In comparison with Broward County, Dania Beach is very similar to much of the County-wide trend in development and this would be reflective of the eastern portion of the county developing first. However, during the period 1940 to 1950 Dania Beach far exceeded housing development in comparison with Broward County where 46% 9% of Dania Beach housing was built before 1950 while only 4-.51e 3% of the County's was built in that same period. 2. Unit Value Table III outlines the unit values within the City of Dania Beach by nine categories ranging in value from less than $10,000 to over $200,000. A median value is provided and also a comparison with Broward County. Table III indicates that over 65% 56% of the housing within the community is valued in the $40 -100,000 price range with the largest percentage (231% 41%) of the housing in the $60 - 80.000 $100,000 price range. This reflects a moderately priced housing market which provides a full range of opportunities for current and future residents of the community. Considering the age of the housing stock within the community it also indicates the City has been able to maintain good value in the properties for the residents. This is due in part to the City's proximity to the major employment areas of the County and being in the eastem portion of the County which is the more desirable location for living within the County. The percentages of the price range within the City of Dania Beach are also compatible with the percentages of Broward County with the exception that Dania Beach has slightly higher number of housing values lower than $40,000 and also a slightly lower percentage of housing available in the over$100,000 price range. 3. Gross Rent Table IV outlines the gross rent occurring within the City of Dania Beach as of the 48804990 census. It is provided by city total and Broward County total. The figures ranging from $80 - per month; median erent cty-wideed n mand Browardne catriesCoun s County. Table IV indicates that 2 _J I eVeF 80% 20% of the rents are less than $350. The county-wide average shows that approximately 5094 ef!he Fents afe in t $209 $350 Fange,-wAh 29% 83% of the County rents in excess of$400 per month. Dania Beach has enly 9% 65% over $400. The median in the City of Dania Beach is $248 $484 per month which is approximately $64 $91 less than the County average of S3Q $575 per month for median gross rents. Vie. 4. Monthly Mortgage Cost Table V outlines monthly mortgage cost city-wide and within Broward County. Monthly mortgage costs range from under $100 to over $600 per month plus a median cost is also provided. Table V reflects that approximately 74% 33% of the monthly mortgage cost is in the $200 - $600 per month range with approximately 6"1 30% of the mortgage rates ranging from $300-$600 per month. The median for the City of Dania Beach is $3" $754 a month which is lower than the Broward County median of 5399 $856 per month. This is beeause many ef the units are on eldeF FneFtgages when the h wing was first eenstmeted. S. Lacking Facilities Table VI reflects the number of units within the City which lack complete plumbing, kitchens or central heating. Table VI reflects 400 41 units City-wide lack complete plumbing, 44-7 88 units lack complete kitchens. and `- 563 tinit 6. Rent to Income Ratio Rent to income ratio is the relationship of the percentage of a households income that is utilized to provide shelter which is reflected on Table VII. Owner occupied housing has a self imposed ratio that is typically related to the ability to obtain a mortgage which cannot exceed 30% of the family's income. Rental housing does not have this type of self imposed regulator and therefore this data provides the relationship of rent to income ratio for the City of Dania Beach. According to the 49W1990 U.S. Census, approximately 839 943 of the City's 1,207 2,564 units which were renter occupied paid more than 35% of their income for rent. This represents approximately 49%37% of the rental families within the City. Within this category 735 578 or approximately 34%23% have income less than $1Q000. `'' ' ' ' """ ""''" ` '' �ad The overall split of rental housing within the community indicated mern,� than 509,; 30 % of the units were occupied with families in the less than $10,000 income range. About 33% 40% of the City paid less than 25% of their income towards rent. Table VII outlines the Rent to Income Ratio within the City of Dania Beach. J 3 ''�611s 7. Standard/Sub-Standard Housing Conditions The purpose of developing definitions for sub-standard housing is to determine whether there are components of the City which could be available for rehabilitation or should be considered as dilapidated and potentially be demolished. Table VIII reflects this information. C. Subsidized Renter Housing The City of Dania Beach has subsidized renter housing through the Federal Government Section 8 program. ">�°T Table IX identifies by Census Tract the number of units within the City. D. Group Homes Table X identifies the group home facilities situated within the City of Dania Beach. They include the following types: foster/shelter homes; residential facilities; adult foster homes. E. Mobile Homes The inventory of mobile homes provided by Fled&44R--9 indicates there are fear (4) ten (10) mobile home parks representing 66-3 1,139—units within the City (1998). Table XI identifies each facility. F. Historical Housing Table XII identifies historical housing occurring within the City of Dania Beach. Because Dania Beach is one of the older communities within Broward County there are several significant structures remaining within the community. G. Housing Activity (1980498--71997) Table XIII is an inventory of housing construction activities within the City of Dania Beach from 1980 to 49P 1997. The data reflects a total increase of approximately 940 dwelling units sine between 1980 - 1997 and 1,513 units since 1987. The new construction reflects a substantial increase in new multi- family housing which represents over 80%of the increase. 111. ANALYSIS REQUIREMENTS-9J-5.010(2) The Housing Analysis segment of the Housing Element for the City of Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan is intended to provide a projection of the anticipated number of j households by type and size which are needed to meet its future growth; special _1 4 housing needs; land requirements to meet the anticipated housing; private sector delivery and meeting the needs of the low income and group home requirements. A. Household Projections To develop future housing needs it is first important to examine the projected number of dwelling units and population which will be regulated by the Land Use Element of the City's Comprehensive Plan. Table XIV provides the anticipated number of dwelling units to be constructed in conformance with the City's Land Use Element: For the period 1188 —1993 1995 - 2000 an anticipated additional 430 385 dwelling units is expected and for the period '°n,T93 2010 2000 - 2005 an additional 320- 450 dwelling units is expected. Table XV provides a projection of anticipated households by size to support these projections. Table XV indicates a continuing trend of the community mix that is presently in place with some increase in the two person households. The one and two person households are representative of a large segment of the population which is elderly. These projections were prepared by a combination of the Bureau of Census Information, Broward County Office of Planning Projections, and City of Dania Beach Growth Management Department Dwelling Unit Compilations for the period of 1980 to 1987 as reflected on Table XIII of the Data Requirements of this element. The projections were based upon a straight line projection of the trends for the last several years which predict approximately 400 90 units per year. The mix of those units are anticipated to be heavily weighted towards multi-family as in a seven ten (10)year period approximately 93% 70% of the housing construction was multi-family oriented. This trend is expected to continue which will result in a gradual lowering of the household size over time which is reflected in the household projections. Table XVI provides the income range of anticipated households both renter and owner occupied based upon the 4980-Census. The projections of income range were prepared utilizing the Bureau of Census 4980 data and projecting that forward. An increase in income was anticipated with the maturing of the households and the general economic outlook for the area. Also, the improvements occurring within the redevelopment area indicates the opportunities for advanced employment are increasing. Table XVII provides a breakdown of the housing needs for the anticipated population. The data was derived from the 4980-U.S. Census and by studies of current and past trends within the City of Dania Beach and Broward County. The information is provided by owner and renter occupied. The City of Dania Beach has not been a farming community for several decades and is not a rural community as it is on the eastern edge of highly urbanized Broward County. Accordingly rural and farm worker households are not needed as their is no demand for same. 1 i 5 I B. Land Requirements The land requirements necessary for meeting the anticipated additional dwelling units outlined previously is expected to be approximate 4-5 12 acres single and twe family and 90 28 acres multi-family for the Year 4993 2000. For the year 2OW 2005, an additional 48 15 acres of single-family and 2-5 30 acres multi-family is anticipated. This blend of densities will provide a variety of housing types available to the future population of the community. I C. Private Sector Initiatives I I The Private Sector is expected to continue to be the main provider of housing for the future residents of the City of Dania Beach. There is an effective process in place within the community for review and approval of housing proposals. In addition, Broward County through its platting laws has a role in reviewing new development which ultimately must be approved in plat form by the Broward County Commission. The Broward County function is more of a regional review as it affects major transportation corridors within the City and also addresses needs for schools, regional parks, and other county-wide services. The City on the other hand has the more finite review of the site plan, provision of local services such as police, fire, water/sewer, and general quality of life attributes which are inherent and important in any site plan review and development process. It is anticipated that approximately 70% - 80% of the projected housing needs will be met by private sector within reasonable market conditions which are anticipated in the future. The type of housing will be a full range of dwelling opportunities and they are anticipated to be consistent with the cost, rent and income ranges previously outlined in this report. D. Special Needs 1. Low and Moderate Income households The private sector housing delivery process within Dania Beach and Broward County as a whole has proven to be a relatively effective interaction between the private sector and the public sector. The City of Dania Beach has established a growth management department which essentially provides one stop permitting for many projects within the community. These would be projects with the proper zoning and land use in place. As noted in other parts of the Comprehensive Plan, services are readily available for all developments because of the communities long established history. Vacant land is readily available close to all infrastructure requirements and a mix and variety of not only housing, but non-residential properties are available. As noted previously the City of Dania Beach contains one of the six target areas within Broward County. Accordingly, a Chapter 163 Redevelopment Plan has been developed for the City of Dania Beach and is in the implementation phase. 6 Attached as Table XVIH is a projection based upon the Shimberg Study for very low; low and moderate housing. It is felt that an adequate supply of very low, low and moderate income housing sites are presently available on vacant land still remaining within the community. These sites have a varying range of densities and therefore varying housing types available. The infra- structure in many cases is already in place so the sites are readily available for development. In addition, as stated in the 4-989 Census, the City has in excess of 200 2,000 units of subsidized renter housing. 2. Substandard Housing Conditions The elimination of substandard housing conditions and the structural and aesthetic improvements of housing within the community is an issue which is reviewed and addressed by the City and its staff. The Target area receives CDBG funding on an annual basis to help address the problem within that portion of the City. 3. Low/Moderate Income and Mobile Home Sites As is indicated on Table III the median unit value within the City of Dania Beach is approximately $7,000 less than the Broward County average. Based upon�980 census as outlined in Table III there is also a greater percentage of units which are in the lower priced bracket. Accordingly, the City of Dania Beach provides a good percentage of housing and sites to provide for low and moderate income families. In addition, the development of the 163 Redevelopment Area contains approximately 30 acres of vacant land which can provide for a mix of residential housing types. As is outlined on Table I, in 4NO 1995 Dania Beach contained approximately 400 1,067 mobile homes which is representative of 54% 11% of the housing within the community which exceeds the county-wide average of approximately 4.8%. Accordingly, Dania Beach presently provides adequate sites to support this segment of the housing needs of its residents. 4. Group Homes and Foster Care Facilities As noted in the Data Section, group homes and or foster care facilities which are licensed by the Florida Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services are situated within residential communities in the City of Dania Beach. . E. Conservation, Rehabilitation or Demolition Activities and Historically - Significant Housing As noted in the Redevelopment Plan for the target area, there is a continuing identification of housing for rehabilitation and demolition activities. �J 7 _J IV.

POTABLE WATER 18 i J I. SANITARY SEWER SUB-ELEMENT A. Introduction The City of Dania Beach Charter establishes Departments of Public Works and Utilities whose responsibility is to oversee the operation, maintenance and construction of the City wastewater system. The area west of Ravenswood Road is served by Broward County Utilities. Dania Beach originally operated its own treatment facility but it was abandoned in 1974 and the City entered into a large user agreement with the City of Hollywood to provide for wastewater treatment. The City presently operates and maintains its own sanitary sewage collection system and appurtent sewage lift station. B. Existing Conditions The City sewage collection and transmission system consists of approximately thirty-three (33) miles of gravity sewer lines ranging from eight (8) inches in diameter to twenty-four (24) inches in diameter. There are eleven (11) sewage pump stations and approximately six(6) miles of sewage force mains with diameters of up to eighteen (18) inches. Approximately ninety (90) percent of the City is served by the sanitary sewer system with an area of single family homes located north and east of the Dania Cut-Off Canal and west of U.S. 1 presently being served by septic tank. The area west of Ravenswood Road is served by Broward County. Broward County is currently preparing a master plan for their entire system. When available in early 1999, the data section will be updated. The remainder of the City's commercial, industrial, multi family and single family areas are served by sanitary sewer facilities. The area served by septic tank is of a relatively high elevation and has soils consisting of the Lauderdale-Dania Association. The septic tank area is essentially built out but any future septic tanks would be permitted on a case by case basis by the Broward County Public Health Unit. Septic tanks are permitted if existing sewers are more than 100 feet from a single family residence. The level of service for a septic tank maximum discharge as established by the Broward County Public Health Unit is as follows: Residential 2,500 gallons/acre/day Commercial 1,500 gallons/acre/day with the following utilized as a design criteria for septic tank: Residential .0574 gallons/day/sq. ft. served by potable water Commercial .0034 gallons/day/sq. ft. J 1 i The entire area served by septic tank has potable water service to the vicinity. - The Broward County 201 facilities plan, as approved by the State, provided for the wastewater from the City of Dania Beach to be treated by the City of Hollywood Wastewater Treatment Facility. The Hollywood plant is located on a 32 acre site in the eastern portion of that City. The plant has a design capacity of thirty-eight (38) million gallons per day and currently treats approximately thirty-three (33)million gallons per day on an average day. The treatment is secondary and the disposal is via an ocean outfall. The City of Dania Beach utilizes the design flows established by the Broward County Environmental Quality Control Board for determining the adequacy of wastewater service during the development review process. These flow items have been adopted in Dania Beach Ordinance 4 1-86 with the following flows being used to establish a level of service and an equivalent residential connection (ERC) being defined as the flow generated by a standard single family dwelling which shall represent three hundred (300) gallons per day of wastewater generated. The City has also adopted an individual person level of service standard of one hundred (100)gallons per day. 1) Dwellings: Each Single Family Unit = 1 ERC 2) Condominium: 3 bedroom 300 gpd 1 ERC I & 2 bedroom 250 gpd 0.71 ERC 3) Motel/Hotel: 150 gpd per room 200 gpd per pool 350 gpd per mgr. apt. 4) Mobile Home: 100 gpd per space 5) Office i 0.2 gpd per square feet 6) Retail: 0.1 gpd per square foot 7) Laundries: i 2 400 gpd per machine 8) Bar(no food service): 20 gpd per seat 9) Restaurants: 24 hour- 50 gpd per seat (Including bar) Less than 24 hours-30 gpd per seat (Including bar) 10) Theaters: 5 gpd per seat 11) Assembly Hall: 2 gpd per seat 12)Park: 10 gpd per person 13)Factories: 15 gpd per person per shift 14) Institutions: 100 gpd per person 15) Church: 7 gpd per seat 16) Service Station: Full Service Station First Two Bays-750 gpd Each Additional Bay-300 gpd Per Fuel Pump - 100 gpd Self Service Station J Per Fuel Pump 50 gpd J 3 4 I 17)Elementary School: i 10 gpd per pupil 5 gpd per shower per pupil 5 gpd per cafeteria per pupil 18) High School: 15 gpd per pupil 5 gpd per shower per pupil 5 gpd per cafeteria per pupil 19)Hospital and Nursing Home: 200 gpd per bed 100 gpd per staff 20) Warehouse: 1 0.1 gpd per square foot C. Analysis Of Existing System I � I The present wastewater and future flows generated by the City of Dania Beach are tabulated as follows: Average Peak Present 2.7 MFHB 3.78 MGD 49W 2.9 MGB 3.nr92 MGB 1995 3-.8-2.6 MGD 332 3.6 MGD 2000 4.7 3.0 MGD &M 4.2 MGD 2005 3.5 MGD 4.9 MGD The City of Dania Beach presently contracts with the City of Hollywood for wastewater treatment. The contract, known as a "Large User Agreement", is being updated to the following flows for the City of Dania Beach: j 4 Average Peak Present 4.2 N4GD 4-9W 3.00 MG 4.2 MGD 1995 3.80 MGD 5.32 MGD 2000 4.68 MGD 6.58 MGD The City of Hollywood has prepared design reports for the expansion of the treatment facility from 38 million gallons per day to 58 million gallons per day which includes the anticipated flows from Dania Beach. The sewage lift stations and force main systems were analyzed in 1986 for the ultimate flow projections. Certain deficiencies were identified, such as undersized stretches of force main, undersized master meters and upgrading of pumps. These deficiencies were addressed by the City and the improvements have been completed. The remaining improvements to the system that would need to be addressed is the installation of a pump station and force main to service the unsewered area north of the Dania Cut-Off Canal should the septic tank system fail. The gravity sewer collection system was installed by the City in the early 1960s and the earlier installations are of vitrified clay pipe in organic soil areas. Some settlement has occurred, particularly in the eastern area of the City and infiltration is occurring. Inflow is also occurring due to flooding of streets in extremely low areas. The City performed an Inflow and Infiltration Study in 1984 with repairs being made in 1985 that accomplished a reduction in sewer flow of approximately 500,000 gallons per day. The City has undertaken a program whereby the gravity sewage collection system will be divided into three geographic sections, with each section being examined yearly for leaks and therefore the necessary repairs accomplished. This will result in the entire sewer system being examined every three years. It is estimated that this program will result in a savings of 500,000 gallons per day or approximately$250/day. The level of service standard for the City's sanitary sewer facilities shall be 300 gallons per day per residence which shall equal one ERC. The level of service standards as approved by the Broward County Environmental Quality Control Board and the City Ordinance establishing design sewer flows shall continue to be utilized. D. Economic Assumptions The City of Dania Beach has two primary sources of income for wastewater expenditures. The first is rates for use which can be adjusted as needed and the second is unit and acreage charges or connection charges. Connection charges are established in Ordinance 4 1-86 and are based on the estimated flow as determined in the level of service charts based on the estimated flow as determined in the level of service charts. They are collected from all new construction and are utilized only for capital expenditures and not operating. Any new wastewater infrastructure will be funded from the connection charges as will the ongoing Inflow and Infiltration Study. The inflow and infiltration examination is estimated Jto cost$35,000 per year. i 5 E. Goal, Objectives And Policies The goal of the Sanitary Sewer Element will be to provide wastewater customers, both new and existing, within the City of Dania Beach adequate sewerage facilities meeting all local, state and federal criteria. Objective I Continue to contract with the City of Hollywood to provide wastewater treatment.

Policy 4.2 The City will discourage urban sprawl by requiring single family residences to hook up to sanitary sewer facilities if they are within 100 feet of a sewer line. F. Plan Implementation And Monitoring Procedures The City of Dania Beach Growth Management Department shall prepare a list of goals, objectives and policies and distribute these to all affected City departments for their implementation. The Growth Management Department shall be responsible for monitoring these goals, objectives and policies and determining their compliance with the plan. The Growth Management Department will review yearly status reports from the Public Works and Utilities Department as to the achievements of the goals, objectives and policies and shall ensure that adequate funding is budgeted to meet the same. The Growth Management Department shall immediately notify the City Manager and the City Commission of any unaddressed deficiencies so that they may be addressed. i II. SOLID WASTE ELEMENT A. Introduction The City Charter of the City of Dania Beach establishes a Department of Public Works which has the responsibility of providing for lawn trash and brush pick up and administering the private contractor that picks up garbage. B. Existing Conditions The City of Dania Beach Public Works crews pick up lawn trash and brush on a continuous basis and haul the refuse to the National Resource Recovery site located at the Turnpike and S.R. 84 in Davie. The solid waste generated by other sources is hauled to the Reuter Recycling facility in Western Pembroke Pines. The facility has a design capacity of 660 tons/day. The current demand is 550 tons/day. The City of Dania Beach's portion of the demand is 10,000 tons/year or 27 tons/day. Central Dispes extendtipping fee and that Dania Beaeh pays the hau ef.

C. Analysis The City of Dania Beach entered into a disposal contract with Reuter Recycling of Florida Inc. for disposal of its processable waste. The contract, which was executed in 1988, provides for disposal of waste from the Cities of Pompano Beach, Hallandale, Pembroke Pines and Dania Beach. The amounts of each City contract for are as follows: AVERAGE CITY ANNUAL TONNAGE Dania each 10,000 tons Hallandale 30,000 tons Pembroke Pines 48,000 tons Pompano Beach 65,000 tons 153,000 tons The contract calls for an increase in each cities tonnage of 10 % per year. The plan is scheduled to go into production in July 1990 and will have a capacity of 200,000 tons per year. The contract allows that when a capacity of 175,000 tons per year is reached then the plant capacity will be increased by 100,000 tons per year to 300,000 tons per year. When a capacity of 275,000 tons per year is reached then the plant will be expanded to 400,000 tons per year. If a plant breakdown should occur then Reuter is responsible for providing an alternate means of disposal. The agreement is valid for 20 years after completion of the plant or until the year 2010. The plant is being designed to handle processable waste and to compost the product for ultimate sale. The contract calls for the following minimum waste stream for the City of Dania Beach. 10 1 AVERAGE YEAR ANNUAL TONNAGE 1990 10,000 1995 10,77212,910 2000 11,605 14,201 2005 12,502 15,621 2010 13,46817,183 The City of Dania Beach now contracts with Southern Sanitation, a private contractor, to collect the solid waste within the City and deliver the waste to the Reuter Recycling facility in western Pembroke Pines. This facility has a design capacity of 660 tons per day. The current demand at the facility is 550 tons per day. The City of Dania Beach's portion of this demand is established at 29.5 tons per day. The City no longer hauls to the Central Disposal Land Fill facility.

Introduction The City of Dania Beach Growth Management Department is responsible for assuring proper drainage is installed on all new projects as per Section 4605 of the South Florida Building Code and the Public Works Division is responsible for existing systems and their extensions. This process is as per the City Charter and the Code of ordinances. Dania Beach also requires that projects obtain approval from the Broward County Water Management Division which follows the criteria as set forth in the "Grading and Drainage Regulations and Standards' Manual. The City also requires adherence to the South Florida asis of Review" and the rules and regulations of the Water Management District B Broward County Environmental Quality Control Board. Any dredge and fill projects within the City require prior review of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the State of Florida Department of Environmental Regulation. and its atterns it was comb combine the drainage to the nature e elehe m ent and the natural of the City roundwater recharge into one element. to 13 _1 i B. Existing Conditions I The primary drainage system of the City of Dania Beach as well as Broward County is controlled by the canal and pump system of the South Florida Water Management District (S.F.W.M.D.). The S.F.W.M.D. maintains a canal and pump systems and controls discharge based on the capacity of the system to remove storm water. Drainage systems primarily consist of storm sewers, exfiltration trench system and onsite retention/detention systems. Retention/detention systems consists of Wet which retains or detains storm water in lakes and Dry which retains or detains storm water in areas that are normally dry. Both of these methods provide for storm water storage and aquifer recharge, however, dry retention systems provide for the added benefit of improving water quality due to the filtration action of the sods. The area is underlain by two aquifers, the Floridian and the Biscayne. The Floridian is confined and approximately 1,000 feet below the surface and is quite high in chlorides. The Biscayne Aquifer is essentially on the surface as is approximately 300 feet in depth. The Biscayne Aquifer is the primary source of drinking water. The western portion of Broward County through the 790 square mile conservation area is the primary aquifer recharge area. These areas are maintained by the South Florida Water Management District. Other aquifer recharge occurs through the Dania Cut Off Canal, exfiltration trench systems and onsite retention/detention areas. The southeast area of the City is quite low in elevation, having an average elevation of+ 4.0 to + 5.0 N.G.V.D. This area is drained by a series of storm sewers connecting to a 3 acre lake with a 15,000 gallon per minute pump system that discharges through a series of ditches to the Dania Cut Off Canal. The pump system is automatically operated and regularly maintained by the Public Works Department. The antecedent stage of the lake can be regulated to prevent flooding. Other areas of the City are provided drainage either through natural percolation or exfiltration trench systems. The City adheres to the minimum standards of Broward County and the South Florida Water Management District and establishes the following levels of service. Road Protection - Residential and primary streets crown elevation meet the minimum elevations as published on the Broward County 10 year Flood Criteria Map. Buildings - The lowest floor elevation shall not be lower than the elevation published on of Broad afo County and flood elevation above or 18 the inches adj cent above crownadofc road for crown commercial/industrial. Storm Sewers - Shall be designed using the Florida Department of Transportation Zone 10 rainfall curves. Flood Plain Routine - Modified SCS routing method as established by the S.F.W.M.D. "Basis of Review 14 �s I 1 Best Management Practice - Efforts shall be utilized to use best management practice to reduce pollutants entering the groundwater. j C. Analysis Of Existing System The drainage system of the City functions adequately and is able to meet the area wide level of service standards. The review process of new, developments ensure that S.F.W.M.D., Broward County and City drainage and recharge criteria are met. The following level of service standards are utilized by the City: Road Protection - Residential and primary streets crown elevation meet the minimum elevations as published on the Broward County 10 year Flood Criteria Map. Buildin - The lowest floor elevation shall not be lower than the elevation published on the of road aBrowrdfo Coresident alyeand o 6 einchelevatis n above r 18 thenches adjacent above the c own adjacent a nt ofroad�for commercial/industrial. Storm Sewers- Shall be designed using the Florida Department of Transportation Zone 10 rainfall curves. Flood Plain Routine - Modified SCS routing method as established by the S.F.W.M.D. "Basis of Review". Best Management Practice - Efforts shall be utilized to use best management practice to reduce pollutants entering the groundwater. The southeast area of the City located east of U.S. 1 and south of Dania Beach Boulevard perhaps has the most severe drainage problems. The area is quite low with elevations as low as +3.0 N.G.V.D. and the soils have poor percolation. The existing system consists of storm sewers and swale drainage being collected and discharged into a three acre lake. When the stage of the lake reaches elevation +4.0, the 151,000 gallon per minute pump is started that discharges through a series of ditches to the Dania Cut Off Canal. mar P% s , 0 years The es wtpd Agm of these rcljuilt-irr1�1 iapFevements are: ptunp Station $ 60,00 The City has installed $200,000 worth of drainage improvements to the southeastern portion of the City. This included upgrading the pump system. These imp ef-the City.- The southwest and northwest area of the City is of a higher elevation and soil permeability is greater. This area has utilized natural ground percolation and exfiltration trenches and the system functions to meet the level of service. The northeast area of the City is essentially undeveloped and any new development will meet the criteria of S.F.W.M.D., Broward County and the City as far as attaining the j specified level of service. 15 jAquifer recharge occurs through the recently adopted Broward County Wellfield protection ordinance and Broward County Environmental Quality Standards as well as S.F.W.M.D standards. rrs hewever, {1te westem The western portion of Broward County through the 790 square mile conservation area is the primary aquifer recharge area for the City of Dania Beach and Broward County and these areas are maintained by the South Florida Water Management District. Other aquifer recharge occurs within the City limits through the Dania Cut-Off canal, exfiltration systems and on-site retention/detention areas. However, it is important to note that most of the entire limits of the City of Dania Beach are impacted by salt water intrusion due to its close proximity to the coastal areas of eastern Florida. Water quality is improved in the City through the encouragement of the use of swales and water detention/retention systems. The ratio of pervious area to impervious area is also utilized to encourage water quality. D. Economic Assumptions The indicated drainage improvements and system maintenance will be financed through general fund revenues, special assessments and developer contributions. E. Goal, Objectives And Policies Provide for storm water protection for the residents of the City of Dania Beach that assures flooding protection while encouraging water quality and aquifer recharge. Objective I Ensure for flood protection. Policy 1. 1 Adopt the level of service standards as established by Broward County and the South Florida Water Management District as follows: Road Protection - Residential and primary streets crown elevation meet the minimum elevations as published on the Broward County 10 year Flood Criteria Map.

POTABLE WATER SUB-ELEMENT A. Introduction The Charter of the City of Dania Beach provides for a Department of Public Works and Utilities which is responsible for the potable water treatment system and distribution system. The departments task is to assure the residents of the City with a safe, quality drinking water. The areas west of Ravenswood Road are served by Broward County. Withdrawal of raw water from the aquifer is governed by the South Florida Water Management District. The Broward County Public Health Unit is charged with the responsibility of approving distribution systems and overseeing the operation of treatment facilities. The Broward County Water Resource Management Division is responsible for ensuring wellfield protection. B. Existing Conditions The City of Dania Beach's water distribution system consists of approximately thirty (30) miles of pipe with diameters varying from six (6) inches in diameter to twelve (12) inches in diameter. The City has a lime softing treatment plant with a nominal capacity of three (3) million gallons per day. The City has approximately four hundred (400) gallons of storage, two hundred thousand of which is elevated. Raw water is provided by two - twenty (20) inch diameter wells with a nominal capacity of three (3) million gallons per day. The wells are located approximately 1/4 mile west of the western city limits and feed the plant with a sixteen (16) inch diameter raw water line. The entire City is served by potable water with the exception of a warehouse complex in the southwest comer of the City. The City also has in place five(5) interconnect with adjacent utilities as follows: City of Fort Lauderdale 1 - 12 inches City of Hollywood 2- 6 inches 1 - 8 inches Broward County I - 12 inches 18 i The City of Dania Beach follows the standards established by the Broward County Public Health Unit and the City to determine the adequacy of potable water services. 1) Dwellings: Each Single Family Unit = 1 ERC 2) Condominium: 3 bedroom 300 gpd 1 ERC 1 &2 bedroom 250 gpd 0.71 ERC 3) Motel/Hotel: 150 gpd per room 200 gpd per pool 350 gpd per mgr. apt. 4) Mobile Home: 100 gpd per space 5) Office 0.2 gpd per square feet 6) Retail: 0.1 gpd per square foot 7) Laundries: 400 gpd per machine 8) Bar(no food service): 20 gpd per seat 9) Restaurants: 24 hour- 50 gpd per seat (Including bar) Less than 24 hours -30 gpd per seat (Including bar) 10)Theaters: 5 gpd per seat 11) Assembly Hall: 2 gpd per seat 12)Park: 10 gpd per person �I 19 13) Factories: 15 gpd per person per shift 14) Institutions: 100 gpd per person 15) Church: 7 gpd per seat 16) Service Station: Full Service Station First Two Bays- 750 gpd Each Additional Bay- 300 gpd Per Fuel Pump- 100 gpd Self Service Station Per Fuel Pump 50 gpd 17)Elementary School: 10 gpd per pupil 5 gpd per shower per pupil 5 gpd per cafeteria per pupil 18)High School: 15 gpd per pupil 5 gpd per shower per pupil 5 gpd per cafeteria per pupil 19)Hospital and Nursing Home: 200 gpd per bed 100 gpd per staff 20)Warehouse: 0.1 gpd per square foot The City of Dania Beach Water Treatment Plant has the following characteristics (1995): Average Daily Flow 2-4 2.8 million gallons/day Peak Flow 3.0 million gallons/day Design Flow(ADF) 3.0 million/gallons/day Estimated Remaining Life -20 years J 20 I The plant operates twenty-four hours per day. C. Analysis Of Existing Conditions The following chart gives the demands for the City of Dania Beach: Average Peak 4-999 2.1 MG 3.2 MG 1995 2.8 MGD 4.2 MGD 2000 94 2.8 MGD 1-53 4.2 MGD The distribution system of the City has been analyzed by hydraulic analysis and three areas of the City were determined to have weakness, the extreme southeast area, the area north of the Dania Cut-Off Canal known as Melalucca Isles and the area north and south of the Dania Cut-Off Canal in the extreme eastern part of the City. This analysis was performed both for present demands and build out demands utilizing an average per capita consumption of 100 gallons per day; a maximum day factor of 1.6 and a peak hour factor of 3.2 . Fire flow was established at 1,500 gallons per minute. The distribution system weaknesses in the extreme southeast area of the City have already been corrected. The necessary corrections in the other two areas of the City have been identified and are scheduled to be addressed. These improvements would involve an additional subaqueous crossing of the Dania Cut-Off Canal to strengthen the system in the Melalucca Isles area and replacement of mains in the extreme eastern area. The estimated cost of these improvements are$200, 000. The treatment plant was renovated in 1991. The plant operates adequately and is in reasonably good shape. It is expected that the plant will operate satisfactorily for approximately €►ve4e4en twenty years without major replacements. The storage capabilities of the City are intended to be improved as 400,000 gallons of storage is available with 200,000 gallons being elevated. Planning is underway for an additional ground storage facility m the northeast area of the City with a volume of 500,000 gallons to 1,000,000 gallons considered, with high service pumps. The estimated cost of this facility is $200'000 to $400,000. The City of Dania Beach, being a coastal community, has historically had difficulties with its raw water wells. The wells in the eastern portion of the City have been discontinued in use due to high levels of chlorides in the water. In the early 1980s, two new wells were installed west of the city limits and these wells are currently in use. The County commissioned a study for the implementation of a regional wellfreld facility and this report indicated that the Dania Beach wells may become contaminated with salt during a major drought. The City has been testing for salt water intrusion for the past five years on a monthly basis in both the production wells and adjacent monitoring wells. The City also 21 has been performing frequent tests for volatile organic contaminants in both the raw water and finish water with some traces occurring in the raw water. The following table gives the anticipated daily flow demand for the City. 1989 1995 1989 1995 Average Average Peak Peak 1995 2.8 MGD 2.8 MGD 4.2 MGD 4.2 MGD 2000 3.5 MGD 2.8 MGD 5.3 MGD 4.2 MGD The difference in the year 2000 projection is a reflection of the airport expansion into the area east of Federal Highway and the loss of development anticipated to take place. The water treatment plant went through a complete renovation in 1991 and now is considered to be in excellent condition and is expected to operate for an additional 20 years without major improvements. The City has studied various options as to the future potable water sources for the City of Dania Beach. The options studied are listed below: 1. Bulk purchase of finished water from the City of Fort Lauderdale. 2. Bulk purchase of finished water from the City of Hollywood. 3. Bulk purchase of finished water from Broward County. 4. Bulk purchase of finished water from a combination of the above municipalities. 5. Bulk purchase of raw water from Broward County and expansion of the existing water treatment plant. 6. Abandonment of existing wells, install new onsite wells, and expansion of the treatment with desalinization. The various alternatives were studied and necessary capital expenditures for distribution and treatment were examined for each option. The options were also examined as to operational and maintenance costs as well as bulk purchase costs. The various analysis are as follows: 1. Bulk Purchase of Finished Water from the City of Fort Lauderdale A 24 inch interconnect exists at Eller Drive and U.S. 1, which may provide up to approximately 2 MGD. The price of bulk water purchase is $1.27/1000 gallons. The City has demands of more than 2 MGD thus, additional mains will be needed to supply the City, making this a viable option. 2. Bulk Purchase of Finished Water from the City of Hollywood I 22 Hollywood provides three interconnects with the City; an 8 inch at Sheridan and S.W 2nd Aye, a 6 inch at the water plant, and an 8 inch at Stirling Road and 29th Ave. i These three interconnects in conjunction may yield approximately 3.5 MGD at a decent pressure. This may serve the City's needs to approximately 1991 with the existing transmission system. To fulfill the ultimate demand, consideration of a large interconnect at S.W. 2nd Ave. off of Hollywood's 24 inch line would be mandatory. This connection, in conjunction with the existing interconnect at Stirling Road and N. 29th Ave., could fulfill the City's supply. Additions of larger diameter transmission mains to create a backbone system will be required in this scenario. Additions of 20 inch main along S.W. 2nd Ave. and Stirling Road, additions of 12 inch main along Gulfstream Road and Bryan Road would be required. The facilities and their approximate capital costs in 1989 dollars are: ITEM UNITS COST EXTENDED 20" Interconnect with Hollywood (SW 2"d) Lump Sum $50,000 20" Water main (SW 2"d, Stirling Road) 9,000 LF $60.00/L.F. $540,000 12" Water Main (Bryan Rd, Gulfstream Rd) 10,000 LF $40.00/LF $400,000 $990,000. In this scenario, the water plant is assumed to be shut down, and bulk water purchased. The current purchase price of water from Hollywood is $0.87 per 1,000 gallons. 3. Bulk Purchase of Finished Water from Broward County An interconnect to the County's 16 inch line is proposed at the northeast corner of I-95 and Griffin Road in front of the Hilton Hotel. Due to the distance to the County 3A plant, however, the interconnect may supply only approximately 3.0 MGD at a decent pressure. This is again less then the City's existing maximum demand, therefore bulk purchase only from the County is not viable. 4 Bulk Purchase of Finished Water from a Combination of Fort Lauderdale. Hollywood and Broward County. Given the above interconnects, the City's ultimate demand may be met. i I 23 i i The transmission system would require some upgrades in the form of a large Hollywood interconnect, new mains and new mains paralleling existing mains. A larger interconnect with Hollywood at S.W. 2"' Ave. to provide more flow, and 8 inch main paralleling the existing 8 inch main form Fort Lauderdale and looping of the system along Old Griffin Road and Bryan Road would be required. The facilities and their approximate capital costs in 1989 dollars are: ITEM UNITS COST EXTENDED Interconnect with Hollywood Lump Sum $50,000 (SW 2"' Ave) 12 inch Water Main (Bryan Rd., Old Griffin and Gulfstream Rd) 10,000 LF $40.00/LF $400,000. 8 inch Water Main (from Ft. Lauderdale) 5,300 LF $30.00/LF $159,000 TOTAL: $609,000 In this scenario, the water plant is assumed to be shut down and bulk water purchased. The average purchase price of the water from the three municipalities is approximately $0.93 per 1,000 gallons. 5. Bulk Purchase of Raw Water from Broward County and Expansion of the Water Plant The County will continue to attempt to include the City in its regional wellfield program. A 24 inch transmission main from the County's 3A plant to the water plant would be required to transmit ultimate flows. The water plant would then have to be upgraded to a treatment capacity of 7.5 MGD from its existing 3.0 MGD capacity. The 3.0 plant, as it is, would require rehabilitation. The 4.5 MGD addition may be made in one or two phases as required. The type of treatment anticipated is as existing , which includes lime softening (Accelerator) treatment, filtration and disinfection which lends to phasing additions. Additions to the transmission system would also be needed along Stirling Road, Bryan Road and Gulfstream Road. The facilities and their approximate capital costs in 1989 dollars are: 24 i ITEM UNITS COST EXTENDED 24" Raw Water Transmission (from County) 23,000 LF $75.00/LF $1,725,000 2-2.5 MGD Water Plat Upgrades 2 ea. $3,000,000 $6,000,000 20" Water Main $3,200/LF $60.00/LF $192,000 12" Water Main $10,00011,17 $40.001LF $400,000 TOTAL $8,317,000 The purchase price of raw water from the County is assumed to be 0.50/1,000 gallons, while the 0 & M cost of the plant is currently$0.56 per 1,000 gallons. � 6. Abandonment of Existing Wells, New On-Site Wells and Expansion of Treatment with l Desalinization J All Of the of the L'it 's wells are intFuded upen by set .ate- .egulated by ..t.....7...nts A Il wells a -latftk-e-� . When drilling new wells on the plant site, it is expected that brackish water will ultimately be produced from each well given the extent of salt water intrusion. Brackish water has been desalinated by membrane processes, specifically reverse osmosis (RO). Side benefits of RO may possibly be reduction of THM precursors which may lower THM forming potentials. membrane pfeeess may be aired- In short, RO would need to be field verified to determine accurate design parameters. For the sake or discussion, an assumption made is that RO would be used to simultaneously remove chlorides and hardness to acceptable levels. Additions of RO treating units may be made similar to softening unit additions. It is anticipated that chloride levels in the new wells would increase with usage, starting low (approximately 500 ppm) and increasing to approximately 5,000 ppm. I In the early stages, RO waters my be blended with lime softened waters. As demand increases and as the salinity of the ground water increases, additional RO capacity would be required. Ultimately, the lime softening process would be shut down and treatment would be with RO only. The facilities and their approximate capital costs in 1989 dollars are: 25 I ITEM UNITS COST EXTENDED 7.5 MGD Wellfield Lump Sum $350,000 2.0 MGD RO Plants 4 phases $3,000,000 $12,000,000 20" Water Main $3,200/LF $60.00/LF $192,000 I 12" Water Main $10,000/LF $40.00/LF $400,000 TOTAL $12,942,000 The assumed 0&M costs for this facility is $1.00/$1,000 gallons. i i i II it J 26 I TABLE I CITY OF DANIA BEACH WATER SUPPLY ALTERNATE FACILITIES ULTIMTE BULK TRANSMISSION TREATMENT WATER USE Finished Water + Additional 8" - 20" +None +4.7 MGD ADF Fort Lauderdale Transmission Mains Finished Water + 12 and 20 inch +None +4.7 MGD ADF Hollywood Transmission Mains + Abandon Plant +7.5 MGD max.

INTRODUCTION The purpose of the Coastal Management Element is to provide a plan for the protection of human life and coastal resources and to limit public expenditures in areas that are subject to natural disaster. 11. DATA AND ANALYSIS REQUIREMENTS The coastal zone within the City of Dania Beach (see Natural Resources Map) is considered to be that area east of U.S. 1 area consisting of approximately 4,500 1,300 acres. This includes the small portion of the City on the beach approximately two (2) miles from the main portion of the City. Me. The high hazard area is located east of Southeast Vh Avenue and includes Dania Beach. A. Coastal Zone Inventory Table I identifies the existing land uses within the coastal zone utilizing the same land use hierarchy identified in the Land Use Data Section of the Land Use Element. As noted, the land uses occurring within the coastal zone provide for a mix of uses including various intensities of residential, commercial, industrial, park and recreationaol and community facilities types. In addition, there is approximately 62-5 136 acres that-are presently vacant. Table II identifies the vacant land within the coastal high hazard zone by future land use type utilizing the same hierarchy identified in the Land Use Element. This inventory reflects approximately 44 fifty (50) acres as industrial uses, employment center and transportation and this-would ' tative--ef represent the area east of the Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport while with approximately identified in various """ge'ie twenty-four (24) commercial and twelve (12) acres for residential uses. However, eight (8) acres of the residential is deed restricted for conservation. At the present time there are no conflicts with shoreline uses as the beach front is public and maintained as a recreational facility for the residents of the community. It is also utilized by residents of the Broward County area. The Florida Atlantic University's Sea Tech Oceanographic Institute is being developed on a component of the City of Dania Beach beach front under a lease agreement with the City of Dania Beach. This will provide a water related independent research facility for students and faculty studying oceanographic matters. t With the GiJ f DaniaB e Jsituated m the beach site and There are other water related independent activities I ' 1 tow occurring with the Dania Cut-Off Canal particularly marine industry orientated facilities. Because of the growing marine industry within the general Broward County area and the lack of facilities with ready access to the intracoastal and Atlantic Ocean, Dania Beach finds itself as a desirable location for this type of development. The Natural Resources Map identifies the existing facilities within the town and also potential sites for expansion of these facilities. The economic base of the coastal portion of Dania Beach as reflected in existing land use provides for a diverse array of both residential and commercial activities. Industrial activities within Port Everglades plus commercial activities along Dania Beach Boulevard, including Dania Jai-Alai, provide employment opportunities and tax revenue for the community. The natural resources occurring within the coastal zone have been identified on the Coastal Resource Map. This map indicates generalized wetlands with vegetative cover and areas subject to coastal flooding and wildlife and marine habitats. As previously noted in other portions of the Comprehensive Plan there are mangrove communities occurring within portions of the eastern segment of the community. Many of these mangrove area are stressed but all will require dredge and fill Permitting by the Florida Department of Environmental Regulations, Army Corps of Engineers and Broward County Environmental Quality Control Board. The portions of the coastal zone which contain natural resources include generally the area East of 5th Avenue and south of Dania Boulevard which is a mangrove habitat. This area has been acquired by Broward County as the Dania Salt Marsh. and the »area E— � an sigei�ea . 11 differetwe—v4 tax base.��,��ide substantial Pee i eeeneFrAA b The proposed future land uses have no effect on coastal flooding within the area as that primarily is related to the beachfront which is a public beach facility and will continue to i be maintained as such by the City of Dania Beach. 2 J ti The historic resources have been identified on the coastal resources map and there are no redevelopment efforts through this Land Use Plan which would have an impact on historic resources (there are no archeological sites) in the coastal area. The historic resources are on the western limits of the coastal zone boundary within the downtown . urban core of the City of Dania Beach and no impacts to these facilities will occur. None of these resources are within the high hazard boundaries. The City of Dania Beach beach eeastal h,sh-nazW area is non-contiguous to the remainder of the City as indicated on the future land use maps. There is a relic dune system with sparse vegetative cover of sea oats and sea oxeye. Coastal flooding may occur in this area and is designated as high-hazard V-13 on the FEMA maps. B. Estuarine Conditions The Dania Beach area is essentially developed with recreational uses. Traffic circulation is L not intended to change and the area is serviced by sanitary sewer and potable water. All stormwater drainage receives pre-treatment via swales and detention. The New River Sound which is located in the Dania Beach area and depicted on the Estuarine Map is located in an area which due to its proximity to the Port Everglades Inlet receives a substantial tidal flow and related flushing. Accordingly, the pollution within this area is very limited and the water quality which is designated as a Class III by the Florida Department of Environmental Regelatien Protection is good. There are no t source pollution problems within the estuarine area. The Eastern area point or non-poin of the estuary is bulkheaded and a part of a small boat marina docking facility. No development will be permitted within the estuary and accordingly no new pollution factors will be introduced. The regulatory programs which are in place to help protect this estuary are: those of the Florida Department of Environmental Regulatien Protection; ' '�riiia�""' "O Nater �_ —s; the goals and policies and objectives of the South Florida Regional Planning Council Regional Policy Plan; the South Florida Water Management Districts criteria as it relates to stormwater runoff; and locally the Broward County Water Resources Management Division; the Broward County E Beard Department of Natural Resource Protection and the City of Dania Beach maintain programs including stormwater runoff, wetlands protection among others which will maintain or improve the estuarine and environmental quality. In addition, as noted earlier, the City of Dania Beach will not permit any additional development which will have a negative impact to the water quality of this estuary. The new marina facilities which are being expanded or added within the City of Dania Beach are sited approximately 1.5 miles west of this estuary and are situated along the Dania Cut-off Canal. In the permitting processes for these new facilities the City of Dania Beach requires stormwater management plans which will eliminate any non-Doint source epartment pollution. Also, the Broward County of Natural Resource Protection regulates any storage tank requirements locally and the Florida Department of RegelaEiien Protection has this responsibility on a regional level. Those agencies will require that all storage tank construction be in accordance with their 3 I 1 standards and monitored in accordance with their regulations thereby eliminating any threat of contamination from these facilities. The beach area of the City of Dania Beach has existing infrastructure in place which will suffice for both existing and proposed land uses. The area is accessed by Dania Beach Boulevard (four lane divided) from the west and AIA (two lanes) from the south, both of which are part of the State primary road system. The intracoastal waterway is spanned by a four lane bascule type bridge. Both of these facilities operate at level of service D and are functioning adequately. Sanitary sewer and potable water systems are in place and are adequate to meet any existing or future demands. Drainage in this area is provided by natural percolation and there are no man made drainage facilities. The existing percolation areas will service both the existing and future needs of the area. The area of the City east of U.S. 1 is essentially developed. The major east-west traffic facility is Dania Beach Boulevard which is six lane divided. The major north-south facility is S.E. Fifth Avenue which is two lane with intersection improvements. Both facilities are adequate to address build-out conditions. Sanitary sewer and potable water in the area is adequate for existing needs. The sanitary sewer is adequate for future build out and the potable water has recently been upgraded to handle build out flows. The area north of the Dania Cut-Off Canal and east of U.S. 1 is essentiaNy andeveleped substantially developed. The area north of Northeast 10th Street has been acquired by Broward County for an airport runway and de-annexed from the City. N4ejer as Fee lane fheility, is planned feF4*A--year-- divided e&Vmte-serviee fer Ijui Water and sewer have been provided to the area that will adequately handle the intended future land uses. Drainage will be provided by on-site percolation as development occurs. C. Natural Disaster Planning The following will provide an overview of the natural disaster planning concerns for the City of Dania Beach: 1. Hurricane Evacuation The emergency preparation office of the Broward County government is responsible for the preparation and implementation of a hurricane evacuation plan for Broward County. The plan includes twe (a) three (3) categories: Plan A which calls for the evacuation of all residents east of the i Southeast 5'h Avenue B the event hurricane winds are in the 74 mph to 110 mph rate (Category 1 - 2). Plan B extends the evacuation line from Southeast 5'h Avenue to everything east-e€U.S. 1 and this is for a hurricane with winds in excess of I I I to 130 mph. The hurricane vulnerability zones within the City of Dania Beach include Between the area :Atla the tree areas:cean sold 1East ef the lntfaeeastaks--�� 4 l _i Southeast 5'h Avenue (Broward County's Plan A); (2) between the Intraeeastel Southeast 51h Avenue and US I is-a-paW4 the (Broward County Evacuation Plan `B'); and (3) Between I-95 and US 1 (Broward County's Plan Q. The evacuees are afforded opportunities to move inland with relatives or friends, leave the area, move to interior hoteWmotels or go to a Red Cross Emergency Shelter. There are two (2) primary areas of pick-up within the City of Dania Beach and these are the Dania Jai Alai and the intersection of Dania Beach Boulevard and U.S. 1. The closest emergency centers are the Attucks Middle School and Hollywood High School. In addition there is a special care center at Broward Community College south and central campuses. At these facilities nurses, doctors and EMS personnel are available. Finally, the Coast Guard implements a flotilla plan which guides small craft up stream to safe harbor. Also, as noted previously, the Broward County Evacuation Plan addresses special needs of the elderly and handicapped. The population affected by Plan A is 0 approximately 1,500 residents as are no , feside . .:..n� , ..,th=:rthe-Qintmeeastall waterway. Plan B would affect approximately 4,000 residents of the City. It is estimated based upon the Lower Southeast Florida Hurricane Evacuation Study, June 1983 that approximately 20% of the residents within the evacuation area would seek shelter. This would relate to approximately 800 people within the Plans "A" and "B" evacuation areas for the City of Dania Beach. As pfevieusly noted, the Plan A zene bag ne-residents. There are no residents east of the Intracoastal. Also noted previously, there are two (2) emergency centers convenient to the City of Dania Beach plus Special Care Centers at the South and Central Campuses of Broward Community College. The primary centers Attucks Middle School and Hollywood High School have capacity for approximately 7,500 people. In the event of evacuation the Coastal Resources Map identifies evacuation routes available for the residents. There are no known transportation or hazard constraints on the evacuation routes which are primarily the I-95 and Florida Turnpike. The police (Broward County Sheriff) and fire department for the City of Dania Beach will assist in the evacuation activity to assure that the evacuation routes are maintained in a free-flowing and unobstructed condition. The proposed land use plan as it relates to coastal zone and high hazard area is not anticipated to have any particular impact as it relates to hurricane evacuation. 2. Existing/Proposed Land Uses The existing land uses within the coastal high hazard area consist primarily of the Dania Beach; Dania Salt Marsh; Harourtowne marina; and limited residential and commercail uses. small feed establishment whieh sen,es as a t Ee ew business fef beach usefs. Thes 3. Beach and Dune Systems I i 5 I 1 _; The beach and dune system located on the Dania beach area is in good condition. There has not been any programmed rehabilitation of this particular beach however John Lloyd State Park immediately north of the City and the City of Hollywood Beaches immediately south have both had restoration projects. John Lloyd Park had a c� .w� original restoration occur in 1976 and a new second restoration is-ple+=�-= summ of in 1989. The primary impact of the restoration will occur about a mile north of Dania Beach, but the Broward County Environmental Quality Control Board whose responsible for the project indicates that Dania Beach will benefit from this work. The Hollywood Beach restoration occurred in 1979 .e" spil a I a c - the c;::::...er e€ in 1990 and again Dania Beach will benefit from this restoration over time. The Broward County £wa+reuniental-Quality-t eRtrel-Beard Department of Natural Resource Protection does not feel that Dania Beach is experiencing deterioration and the beach ecosystem has been maintained in reasonably good condition. 4. Public Access Beach public access within the City of Dania Beach is excellent as there is a 26.5 acre beach front park available to all residents. There is a substantial parking facility also available and all facilities are open to the general public. These areas also provide suitable scenic overlooks of the beach area and public boat ramps/docks are available at Houston Park for launching of small crafts. Houston Park Manna is approximately 1 mile west of the Intracoastal Waterway and situated on the Dania Cut-off Canal. Dania Beach also enjoys the fishing pier which has been in existence for many years and is a popular spot for residents and tourist alike. All the beach front facilities are of adequate capacity to serve the residents of the City of Dania Beach. The City is not experiencing any problems with over utilization of any of these facilities. 5. Structures with a History of Repeated Damage There are no structures with a history of repeated damaged in coastal storms. Ffem time to time the The Dania Beach fishing pier was recently rebuilt by the City. 6. Coastal or Shore Protection Structures There are no coastal or shore protection structures currently in place in the City of Dania Beach. 7. Infrastructure The existing infrastructure within the coastal area of the City of Dania Beach consists of the following items: J a. U.S. 1 Federal Highway 6 This is an existing facility varying from four(4) to five(5) lanes and has an existing right-of-way of 106 feet which may expand to a requirement of 200 feet north of new Griffin Road. The facility is part of the Broward County Trafficways Plan. b. Dania Beach Boulevard East of U.S. 1 This is an existing facility varying from four (4) to five (5) lanes that is located in an existing 110 foot right-of-way. The facility is part of the Broward County Trafficways Plan. c. S.E. Fifth Avenue This is an existing two (2) te three (.) lane facility that presently exists from Sheridan Street on the south to Dania Beach Boulevard on the north. The facility is-leeated was previously on the Broward County Trafficways Plan and requires a 80 foot right-of-way. Accordingly, this facility has expanded right-of-way with the unique ability to enhance the drainage in this portion of the City. d. U.S. #1/Danin Cut-Off Canal Bridge This facility is located at Old Griffin Road and U.S. I and consists of four (4) lanes and is constructed of reinforced concrete. This is a fixed bridge. e. Intracoastal/Dania Beach Boulevard Bridge This is a bascule type bridge that is not within the city limits of Dania Beach. f. Intracoastal/New River Sound Bridge This is a fixed bridge adjacent to Dania Beach, but is not within the city limits of Dania Beach. g. Dania Cut-Off Canal This is a one hundred (100) foot wide fifteen (15) foot deep canal that travels the City from east to west. It is utilized for boat traffic and drainage. 1 8. Beach and Dune Conditions 7 i The City of Dania Beach's beaches and dunes are not experiencing any significant erosion or deterioration problems. 9. Hazard Reduction Because of the minimal development existing within the high hazard area, there is no need to consider the relocation or structural modification of the limited number of structures within the high hazard area. Also, 100% of the area is already under public ownership. III.

Purpose I The Conservation Element of the City of Dania Beach is prepared to provide a guide for the conservation, use, and protection of natural resources within the City and immediately adjacent property. The Element first identifies the significant resources occurring within the community and the impacts occurring on those resources. The element then provides goals, objectives, and policies which will help to insure commitment to long term programs. This will help conserve the natural resources of the community and hereby provide a high quality of life for current and future residents of the City of Dania Beach. B. Physiography i to in southeastern Broward Count which is the The City of Dania Beach s situated y second largest county based upon population within the State of Florida. The County consists of approximately 1,200 square miles; however, only the eastern third (414 square miles) is considered within the planning or development area. Of the 414 square miles, the City of Dania Beach comprises approximately S 7 square miles. The eastern part of the county where Dania Beach is situated is made up of low, sandy ridges, which are commonly referred to as flat woods. The vegetation where remaining is mostly Pine, Palmetto and native grasses. These flat wood areas were made up of deep poorly drained nearly level sandy soils. Many of these soils were original used for truck crops, but most of the areas have been developed into urban uses. Agriculture is virtually non-existent within the City of Dania Beach. hewever-, there afe small peFtiens ef the City east ef U.S. 1 WhiSh ftFe still fimned-fer-tmek . Some eastern portions of Dania Beach consist of sem mangrove vegetation. H. DATA AND ANALYSIS REQUIREMENTS A. Water Resources 1. Surface Water The Dania Beach area is generally drained by the Dania Cut-Off(C-11) canal which divides the City north and south. This canal also serves the western parts of Broward County. In addition, the C-10 Canal provides the major drainage conveyance primarily serving the southern and western portions of the i � 1 t i 1 community. C-10 ultimately discharges into the Dania Cut-Off Canal which in turn discharges into the Intracoastal and ultimately through Port Everglades inlet into the Atlantic Ocean. Existing drainage in the City is adequate and as development occurs each development is to meet drainage improvement requirements in accordance with the standards of the South Florida Water Management District, Broward County Water Resources Management Division, as well as the City requirements. The New River Sound and estuarine system is located in the most easterly portion of the City of Dania Beach as noted on the Estuarine Map. Because of its proximity to the Port Everglades Inlet (approximately 2 miles to the North), this system receives a high level of flushing activity which enhances the quality of water within the estuary. All water bodies are designated as a Class III water body by the Florida Department of Environmental Regulation. As noted earlier, Dania Beach lies within the jurisdiction of the South Florida Water Management District as does most of Southern Florida. The District is responsible for water conservation, flood control and drainage requirements for all developments within its jurisdiction. Additionally, the Broward County Water Resources Management Division reviews plats as they are processed through Broward County to insure that the drainage meets the immediate guidelines and requirements of the county-wide concern. This will insure that during wet periods there will be adequate drainage not to over burden the master drainage system of the county wide system and still protect public and private property. 2. Flood Plains The Flood Plains Map for Dania Beach, which is prepared pursuant to the National Flood Insurance Program, identifies areas within the City that are subject to flooding for the 100 year period. There are two types of flood zones within the City of Dania Beach these being (A) AE; two types of X and V zones. -W AE zones are areas expected to flood in a 100 year storm event. These areas represent approximately 2/3 of the City of Dania Beach. The V zone is restricted to the immediate ocean front portion of Dania Beach. There are no structures within this public beach area accept for the existing Dania Pier. The Broward County Water Management Division has County wide review of permit authority as it relates to water management activities. That agency requires flood elevations to meet a 3-day, 100 year design storm criteria. That agency also requires all road crown elevations to meet 1-day storm, 10 year event design criteria for local roads. The City of Dania Beach has managed Jflooding in a successful manner through the development and maintenance of 2 the existing network of canals and water bodies designed to handle drainage within the City. Dania Beach participates in the National Flood Insurance Program of the U.S. Department of Housing Urban Development. Also, Dania Beach's emergency preparedness plan establishes a procedure for evacuation and rescue in the event of an emergency such as a hurricane. Also, it is required that all new development meet the guidelines of the National Flood Insurance Program to insure that both they are able to gain insurance for the residents of the development plus protect property from potential hazardous flooding conditions. 3. Ground Water The sub-surface strata below the City can be grouped into three general categories (1) Biscayne Aquifer, (2) The Floridian Aquiclude, and (3) The Floridian Aquifer. The Biscayne Aquifer is the unit closest to the surface and is composed Primarily of Palmico Sands, Miami Oolite, Anastasia Formation and Fort Thompson Formation. The Floridian Aquiclude primarily consists of impermeable strata which prohibits the intermingling of water between the Biscayne Aquifer and the Floridian Aquifer which is beneath the aquiclude. The upper zone of the Floridian Aquifer extends about 900 ft. to 1,900 ft. below sea level and consists of a series of limestone strata including Tampa (Miocene), Suwanne (Oligocene), Ocala (Eocene), Avon Park and Lake City Limestones. The lower zone of the Floridian Aquifer extends for 1,900 ft. to what is known as the"Boulder Zone". The Biscayne Aquifer is one of the most productive water producing aquifers in the world. It has been designated the only reliable source of drinking water for all of Broward County and since 1979 has been designated as the sole source of drinking water by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Despite its high productivity and continuous ability to supply water for drinking, growth in the water use areas has placed the aquifer under stress in recent years. The aquifers are highly permeably and recharge depends on local rainfall and water released from Lake Okeechobee through the network of canals. When water demands are increased so is the threat from saltwater intrusion from the Atlantic Ocean during drought conditions. Dania Beach is impacted by salt water intrusion. Broward County has embarked upon a program to develop future wellfield sites to ensure an adequate supply of quality drinking water for the current and future residents of Broward County. A study has been completed and is now in the implementation phase. The County Commission has authorized development of well sites throughout the County. I 3 w � �1 I } B. Flora and Fauna a As noted earlier, the City of Dania Beach has an extremely flat topography with very little native flora occurring within the community. If mangroves are involved the SFWMD, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection as well as the _ United States Army Corps of Engineers would have review responsibilities for this type of plant community. Also, as part of the site design native plants are encouraged to the greatest extent possible to help develop a canopy as the City grows and matures. Table I will provide a generalized list of the flora and fauna which generally occurs within Dania Beach. Table II will provide a generalized fist of the wildlife; however, there are no endangered animals or plants within the community. C. Wetland Communities The remaining wetland communities within the City of Dania Beach consist of mangrove communities in the eastern fringes of the City. While many of these mangrove areas are highly stressed they are still protected through the permitting process of the Florida Department of Environmental Itegalatien Protection and the United States Army Corps of Engineers. In addition, the Broward County Envifenmental Qualityr Gentfel Beard Department of Natural Resource Protection h issues dredge and fill permits for wetland communities within Broward County. Since 1989, the Dania Saitmarsh has been acquired by the public. This represents the majority of the vacant land east of Southeast Fifth Avenue between Sheridan Street and Dania Beach Boulevard. The area consists of approximately 130 acres. This is an area that was previously designated for residential utilization at a maximum density of one (1) unit per acre. D. Air Quality i Due to the prevailing breezes occurring in southeastern Florida, the air quality is generally good for the Dania Beach area. The major impact to the community would be ozone emission from automobiles as very little industry is presently occurring within the community. While the Comprehensive Plan provides for expansion of industrial opportunities for the community, these will be light industrial/office park type developments which will have minimal impacts on the air quality. Additionally, the Broward Beard Department of Natural Resource Protection, which is an agency of j Broward County government is responsible to insure to the United States 4 Environmental Protection Agency that air quality standards are maintained. Broward County has received certification from the E.P.A. that the air quality is at an adequate standard for the residents of the community. E. Lakes and Minerals All of the lakes occurring within the City are man made and have been developed for providing fill for development or for providing commercially valuable minerals. Adequate areas have been reserved and secured to provide for provision of sand and rock material for the future growth and development of the City. F. Soil Erosion At the present time the City of Dania Beach is not experiencing any soil erosion problems. However, an office of the United States Soil Conservation Service is located in the Town of Davie, Florida which is approximately 5 miles from City Hall. Whenever soil erosion problems occur or a situation arises which may indicate that soil erosion could potentially occur, the Soil Conservation Service office is contacted to provide proper planning to minimize any negative impact. Also, the City in its review of site plans particularly for new lake excavations insures that all sites are properly sloped and vegetated as soon as possible after construction. This applies to the slopes of all lakes both residential and non- residential developments. G. Fisheries, Wildlife, Marine Habitat,and Vegetated Communities The existing mangrove communities East of S. E. 5th Avenue and East of the airport do contain wildlife habitat. Through proper site planning controls and mitigation of any impacts to wetlands areas these habitats can be enhanced and provide for a more suitable habitat for the propagation of a greater variety of flora and fauna. i Manatees are generally found in the New River Sound estuary and to a limited extent along Dania Cut-off Canal. The principal threats to manatees are encounters with boats or other marine navigational activities as they have no natural predators. Manatees are protected under the Endangered Species Act and the Marine Mammal Protection Act but because of these impacts by navigational uses a general decrease in the population is expected. The authority of posting of navigational aids which will help prevent accidents with manatees is administered by the Florida Marine Patrol. It is felt that through the existing controls that the wildlife habitats can be enhanced and protected through mitigation and site design practices. I J I 5 H. Pollution Problems There are no known pollution problems affecting existing natural resources within the City of Dania Beach. Hazardous waste are controlled through the Broward Geunt Department of Natural Resource Protection adopted hazardous material regulations avid storage tank regulations. These regulations are applicable County wide and they are also designed to help safeguard the overall Broward County water supply. Urban storm runoff is regulated by the criteria of the South Florida Water Management District, Broward County Water Resources Management Division and the City of Dania Beach before discharge into the major drainage conveyances serving the City. The existing habitats outlined will be protected from any discharges by these sources. The South Florida Water Management District also encourages the discharge of storm water runoff through mangrove systems as a form of cleansing the runoff prior to discharge into the drainage system. While this is an approved program of the Water Management District to date no developments have incorporated this type of water management plan into any existing activities. I. Current and Projected Water Needs As noted in the Potable Water Element, there exists adequate capacity of both present and projected water needs for the build-out of the community. These projections incorporate the anticipated land uses within the City including the industrial expansion. In addition, the City endorses the Broward County Raw Water Regional System which is presently being implemented and this will continue to ensure an adequate quality and quantity of this resource. The City of Dania Beach also complies and endorses all programs of the South Florida Water Management District as it regards Water Conservation and Protection. Additionally, the City endorses and complies with the Broward County Wellfield Protection Ordinance which further ensures continuance of the existing quality of water. i The current and projected water needs and sources for the next ten-year period based upon residential, commercial, industrial and other uses is outlined below. The breakdown of the residential/nonresidential and other uses was obtained utilizing the Study of Water Supply and the Selection of Future Wellfield Sites prepared by Broward County in 1986. it I ) 6 I AVERAGE DAILY WATER DEMAND (1,000,000 gallons per day) City of Dania Beach 1989- 1999 1995 -2000 Residential Non-residential Other Uses Total +9991995 4-4 1.8 :4.6 3.4 2-4 2.8 4999 2000 272 1.8 -8.6 3.4 342.8 Based upon the existing capacity of the City of Dania Beach treatment facility the City will be able to supply all needs for the next ten years.

These activities are typically located within recreational buildings. 3 J it A. Neighborhood Parks 1 A neighborhood park is typically a park which is convenient to a neighborhood and is located along i streets where people can walk or bicycle without encountering heavy traffic. Generally a neighborhood park serves the population of a neighborhood with a radius of.5 mile and it should have at least two (2) acres for each 1,000 population. Park size is typically 5 - 10 acres serving i typical population size of 5,000 people. In designing neighborhood parks they should be responsible to the character of the neighborhood and incorporate elements of both passive and j active type recreation. Typical facilities located in a neighborhood park include recreation buildings,multi-purpose courts, sports fields,picnic areas and free-play areas. B. Community Parks A community park is a park which is generally located on major streets. It is designed to serve the needs of 4 -6 neighborhoods with a radius of up to 3 miles and a service population of up to 25,000 people: A minimum of 20 acres is recommended for a community park. Where a community park can be located adjacent to a junior or senior high school a minimum of 5 acres is recommended. This is because many times the City can join into agreements with the Broward County School Board to utilize the school ball fields and open areas for recreational needs during non-school hours. The community park offers a wide range of program facilities for all individuals and families. Typical facilities at a community park will include ball fields, tennis courts, play areas, picnic areas and multi-purpose courts. The City of Dania Beach is responsible to ensure that adequate amounts of local and community parks are available for the residents of the City. Broward County is responsible for the provision of adequate regional parks. Typically Broward County and the City are able to obtain necessary park and recreational requirements through the platting process. The platting of the land within Broward County is mandated by the Broward County Land Use Plan and the Broward County Charter and is a means by which all new development is reviewed in terms of its impacts on required services before being approved. Meeting park and recreational requirements is one of the service requirements which must be reviewed and approved by the City and the County before issuance of building permits. Broward County requires 3 acres/1,000 population of regional parks to comply with its standards. The City of Dania Beach also requires 3 acres/1,000 for neighborhood and community parks to insure an adequate supply of recreational facilities for the residents of the community. Based upon the 44U 1995 and 2019 2005 population estimates of approximately 12,009 17,201 and 19,741 residents respectively,the City is responsible for the provision of approximately 36 52 and 60 acres of neighborhood and community parks. As noted on Table III there are presently in excess of 60 acres of neighborhood and 88 acres of community parks with a grand total of approximately 150 acres. Accordingly,the City is in an excellent position regarding land requirements for neighborhood and community parks for the present and the Year 2010. Sub-regional and Regional Park opportunities are available at J. Lloyd Beach State Park immediately north of Dania Beach; the 2,000 acre West Lake Preserve which includes an active park of approximately 160 acres in size (West Lake is immediately east of Dania Beach and extends from the Dania Cut-Off Canal south to below Sheridan Street); North Beach immediately 4 I south of Dania Beach; and TY Park (situated at the northwest comer of 1-95 and Sheridan Street) is in excess of 150 acres and provides a variety of activities. It is apparent Dania Beach enjoys substantial regional open space opportunities. Guidelines for Recreational Activities: Tables IV, V and VI provides a breakdown of the number and type of recreational facilities typically needed to serve a population like Dania Beach's. Utilizing these tables a computation of the total number of recreational facilities which the community should currently have plus what is projected can be determined. These guidelines are intended to be general criteria for determining specific types and amounts of park lands necessary to accommodate the recreational needs of community. These guidelines were obtained from Outdoor Recreation in Florida 49P 1994 Guidebook developed by the State of Florida Department of-Natml-RESAwees Environmental Protection. Tables I &II identify the existing facilities available at the City's parks. Based upon the previous guidelines identified by the Florida Department of Natural Resourees Environmental Protection, the City exceeds those standards. Table VII provides a comparison of the City facilities with the State Guidelines. It is apparent from Table VII that the City exceeds State standards in virtually every respect. IV.

Emergency Medical Services (EMS) The fire department is responsible for provision of EMS services city-wide. f. Broward County Planning Council(BCPC) The Broward County Planning Council, as noted earlier was created by charter and is responsible for land use planning County-wide. The agency interacts primarily with the City's Growth Management Department to insure that the Certified Land Use Plan for the City of Dania Beach is in conformance with the Broward County Land Use Plan. Coordination with this agency has been effective. g. Broward County Favirenme Department or Natural Resource Protection(DNRP) i i 12 This agency's primary interaction is with private developments within the community and is responsible for issuance of wastewater permits for new developments. They also have responsibilities as they relate to wetland permitting on a County-wide basis. The Growth Management Department for the City of Dania Beach insures that any projects proposed within areas within this Agency `s jurisdiction are closely coordinated with that office to insure proper protection of the natural resources. 4. Special Districts a. Broward County League of Cities The League of Cities serves as an effective lobbying group for all cities within the community. They meet on a monthly basis and coordination and communication It as been very good. It is administered by an executive director whose office is located in the Broward County Governmental Center in downtown Fort Lauderdale. � I b. Broward County School Board (BCSB) The Broward County School Board is responsible for public schools within the community and is also responsible for provision of public education grades K-12. The City of Dania Beach has an agreement with the Broward County School Board as it relates to leasing Collins School Park, Dania Beach School Park, and Olsen School Park. These properties are held on a Forty year (40) $1 per year lease. Theses leases permit the City to use the recreational facilities of the School as long as arrangements are made with the school principal in advance. This allows the City to use the School's cafetorium athletic fields and other facilities particularly for their Summer programs run by the Parks and Recreation Department. The effectiveness of this agreement in coordination with the School Board has been satisfactory to date and there are no problems occurring. c. South Broward Hospital District South Broward Hospital District provides public hospital facilities for the City of Dania Beach area. Coordination and interaction with the South Broward Hospital District has been extremely effective and is expected to continue. d—Se th,"""geement 10.4h thA RFSIAFRFdaies Geunty $ivisien. nd- J 13 t �r1 5. Cities a. Unincorporated Broward The primary interaction with unincorporated Broward has been general planning issues and airport related issues. The TAC has served as an effective means to coordinate planning issues. b. Hollywood The City of Hollywood (201 Program) through an agreement with the City Commission provides for the treatment and disposal of all waste water for the City. The City provides a distribution system and transfers the sewage to the City of Hollywood Plant. This interaction has worked very effectively and is expected to continue for the life of the agreement. The balance of the agencies described in the data section of the analysis have interacted on a infrequent basis. Coordination or need thereof has been minimal and there have not been any serious problems with those agencies. During the preparation of the Comprehensive Plan no specific problems or needs were identified between the individual elements. The City has been successful in coordinating the services that are needed within the community at an acceptable level of service. There are no designated Areas of Critical State Concern within the jurisdiction of the City of Dania Beach. B. Opportunities for Improvement This segment will identify specific opportunities which would benefit and improve intergovernmental coordination. It will also outline approaches for implementing these opportunities. 1. Florida Department of Community Affairs(DCA) The Department of Community Affairs is responsible for the review and approval of Comprehensive Plans and amendments thereto. There is a need for closer interaction between the Tallahassee Office and the local governments. The difficulty lies in the inability of the State staff to have a good understanding of the local situation including unique geographic and sociological concerns of the local areas. The following suggests two ways to approach the problem and they are as follows: a. Establish a regional office and staff it with State personnel. This would possibly create an office for each major metropolitan area thereby allowing the State staff to interact more closely with all local governments. Also, the State staff would be able to become part of the Technical Advisory Committee which is very active Jwithin Broward County. 14 b. Inasmuch as the Regional Planning Councils are already established throughout the State of Florida, it may be more appropriate to assign the appropriate Regional Planning Council with the duty of serving as the State's liaison. The advantage of the Regional Planning Council staff, and in Broward County's case, the South Florida Regional Planning Council staff, they are much more familiar with the planning issues and many of the sociological problems and opportunities within Broward County. This would be a logical and immediate means to improve coordination with the State. 2. South Florida Regional Planning Council (SFRPQ The South Florida Regional Planning Council has become very active with local governments as it relates not only to Developments of Regional Impact, but also the Comprehensive Planning issue. In the past couple of years, substantial improvements have occurred in the efficiency of the Development of Regional Impact review process including the monitoring of development orders and insuring that conditions of approval are adhered to in accordance with development orders. The Regional Planning Council has also become very involved in the Comprehensive Planning review and approval process and has made an extra effort to interact with local governments in advance of comprehensive plan development. The SFRPC is following this course to minimize the possibility of problems occurring. This should help to eliminate possible inconsistencies between the local plans and the Regional Policy Plan. It is for these reasons that the previous suggestion was offered that the Florida Department of Community Affairs assign greater responsibility to the South Regional Planning Council staff to serve as the State's liaison. The SFRPC would continue to work closely with local governments to provide advice and assistance as it relates to the Local Government Comprehensive Planning Act. The area of concern for the City of Dania Beach includes the City of Hollywood to the East and South, Unincorporated Broward to the West and to the North both Unincorporated Broward and the City of Fort Lauderdale. The primary growth and development occurring within the area of concern occurs primarily to the North and to the West. To the North the Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport was recently expanded including the relocation of US 1 in its present configuration. This improvement has provided better access both for the citizens of the City of Dania Beach and also residents of Broward County. To the East of the Airport is Port Everglades. The Southern portion of the Port and that area immediately East of the Dania Beach City limits is the site for the new turning basin which is presently under construction. This area will house a major container cargo facility which will expand job opportunities both for the City of Dania Beach and residents of Broward County. To the West of Dania Beach, industrial development has been expanding with the construction of Interstate-595. en te Again, this area will expand the employment based activities which will be available for residents of Dania Beach and County-wide. An examination of the growth and development posed within the area 15 concerned does not identify any areas that need additional planning coordination beyond which is already outlined within the Comprehensive Plan in the Intergovernmental Coordination Element. Also, a comparison has been made with the South Florida Regional Policy Plan and this does not reveal areas which require additional planning coordination to properly implement the Comprehensive Plan beyond that which is already incorporated into the City of Dania Beach's Comprehensive Plan. Coordination standards are already in place which will insure the furtherance of the goals and objectives of not only the City of Dania Beach's Comprehensive Plan but that of the South Florida Regional Policy Plan. C. Area of Concern/Regional Policy Plan The area of concern for the City of Dania Beach includes the City of Hollywood to the east and south, Unincorporated Broward County and the City of Fort Lauderdale. The primary growth and development occurring within the area of concern occurs primarily to the north and to the west. To the north, the Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport elesaHen continues to expand. To the east�of�thenairport is Port Everglades. The southern portion of the port and that area immediately east of the Dania Beach City limits is the site for the new turning basin which is presently under construction. This area will house a major container cargo facility which will expand fob opportunities both for the City of Dania Beach and residents of Broward County. To the west of Dania Beach, industrial development has been expanding with the construction of Interstate-595. this area will ex and the Again, p employment nnt based activities which will be available for residents of Dania Beach and County-wide. An examination of the growth and development posed within the area concerned does not identify any areas that need additional planning coordination beyond which is already outlined within the Comprehensive Plan in the Intergovernmental Coordination Element. Also, a comparison has been made with the South Florida Regional Policy Plan and this does not reveal areas which require additional planning coordination to property implement the Comprehensive Plan beyond that which is already incorporated into the City of Dania Beach's Comprehensive Plan. Coordination standards area already in place which will ensure the furtherance of the goals and objectives of not only the City of Dania Beach's Comprehensive Plan, but that of the South Florida Regional Policy Plan.

INTRODUCTION The Capital Improvements Element for the City of Dania Beach is developed to evaluate public facilities which are identified as needed in other comprehensive plan elements. This element also estimates the cost of improvements for which the City has responsibility; analyzes the City's ability to finance and construct those improvements; adopts financial policies to guide the funding of those improvements; and schedules the funding and construction of improvements in an manner necessary to insure that capital improvements are provided when required based upon the needs identified in the balance of the Comprehensive Plan. H. DATA REQUIREMENTS The data requirements segment of the capital improvements element outlines the needs as identified in the other comprehensive plan elements for public facility needs to support the future land use element of the comprehensive plan including the existing and projected needs of the traffic circulation element. The second component of the data section will address the location of major Public education and public health systems within the City of Dania Beach jurisdiction and also their respective geographic service areas. The final segment of the data requirements will address revenue sources that are presently in place and those funding mechanisms that would be available for capital improvement financing. A. Public Facilities Needs 1. Traffic Circulation As noted on the traffic circulation map, the primary roads interfacing with the City of Dania Beach are as follows: a. East/West Streets Sheridan Street Stirling Road Dania Beach Boulevard Griffin Road I-595 (under eenstmetien) State Road 84 b. North/South Streets Ravenswood Road I-95 U.S. #1 J 1 The above streets are either county, state or federal highways and accordingly those agencies have the primary responsibility for maintaining and upgrading those highways. As noted in the Intergovernmental Coordination Element, the City of Dania Beach works closely through the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) to insure proper coordination with those agencies. This participation helps to insure the deliverance of the improvements to roadways in a time frame to insure adequacy of highways to serve the future growth and development of the community. The balance of the roads within the City of Dania Beach are of local nature and are the responsibility of the City. The Traffic Circulation Element indicates there are no local roads which exceed an acceptable level of service at the present time or anticipated to exceed an acceptable level of service within the next five(5) year period and the Year 2010. 2. Parks and Recreational The City of Dania Beach maintains a standard of 3 acres/1,000 population for local park needs coupled with the Broward County requirement of 3 acres/1,000 population for regional park needs. The City of Dania Beach far exceeds this standard for park and recreational areas throughout the community. There are no identified needs which must be addressed at the present time or for the next five (5) year period and the Year 2010. However, the following identifies improvements completed between 1989 and 1993: New Fishing Pier/Dania Beach Park $1,850,000.00 New Swimming Pool/Modello Park $103,055.00 New Baseball Field/Modello Park $45,709.00 Boat Dock/Houston Park $42,721.00 Playground Equipment $100,902.00 Hard Surface Courts Resurfacing $48,535.00 Fishing Deck/Sun Garden Isles Park $10,300.00 Total Capital Expenditure $2,201,222.00 3. Sanitary Sewer, Solid Waste, Drainage, Potable Water and Natural Groundwater Aquifer Recharge As noted in this element, the City of Dania Beach has made substantial improvements for these basic infrastructural needs. The limited areas of line upgrading which have been identified are planned to occur with development of those areas. The City contracted with a private company fora i disposal facility vAish v.411 d en "" aeres sitt,ated in the southwestern part of Broward County. This facility is antteipeted-tabe constructed ' `ie nva there yeaF and will-sewe serves the solid waste needs of the community well beyond the Year 2010. In the i 2 ifiteri .� r. the City'z selid waste—is disposed at a land fill awned by—Waste Managemet+t-Iae Natural ground water aquifer recharge does not inherently require any capital improvements per se. However, the City of Dania Beach complies with all Broward County regulations regarding wellfield protection and the uses occurring within those areas. In the event of an occurrence which damages the groundwater the cause of the problem will be determined and the financial responsibility of correcting the problem will be borne by the responsible party. The Comprehensive Plan for the City of Dania Beach identifies certain capital improvement needs within the Sanitary Sewer, Potable Water and Drainage Elements of the Comprehensive Plan. The following table will identify the type of facility, the anticipated cost and the timing for the improvement. TABLE I CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT NEEDS Type of Facility Cost* Timing A. Sanitary Sewer Infiltration/Ex- $35,000/year Timing Ongoing t" infiltration Study B. Potable Water Distribution Storage $200,000 4990-Ongoing m Tank $200,000-400,000 4994 2001 C. Drainage Storm Sewers $100,000 4994-2000 Pump Station $ 60,000 4994 2000 * The above noted cost estimates were based upon a registered Civil Engineer's estimates for the improvements. t" The City has allocated and spent $800,000 for the studies and associated line repairs. czr 30,000 linear feet of line has been replaced at a cost of$300,000.

The balance of the Comprehensive Plan has identified no other deficiencies which need to be addressed through the Capital Improvements element of the City of Dania Beach. However, the Intergovernmental Coordination element does identify in several areas the responsibilities of the Broward County School Board and Broward County government. The Broward County School Board as it relates to schools. Broward County government particularly as it relates to road improvements which need to be monitored and maintained at an appropriate level of service. The State of Florida and the United States government also have responsibilities as it regards roadways impacting the City of Dania Beach. III. ANALYSIS REQUIREMENTS A. Local Practices The City of Dania Beach which guides the time and location for capital improvements required t growth and development within the community. The following will outline current practices: 1. Growth trends and demands for services are with input from the Growth Management Departmentned by each department 2. Departments submit recommendations for capital improvements. i 5 1 1 3. City Manager/Finance Director consider impacts related to supplemental funding and responsibilities outside the City's purview such as state funding, federal funding and their related mandates and requirements. 4. City Manager makes recommendation to City Commission for enactment and budgeting per the City Charter. B. Needed Improvements - Fiscal Implications C. Public Education/Health Care Infrastructure All the pubic education and health care infrastructure requirements for any facilities that have been identified in this element have already been provided. D. Timing and Location The entire premise of the City of Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan has been and continues to be the provision of public facilities to support efficient land development is estimated to increase on a 5-10% per annum bases due to the expansion of the tax base with new non-residential construction within the community. The millage rate which is based upon a 100% assessment is only predicted to increase at a-2% 1% per annum rate because of the expansion of the present tax base. Table V outlines non-ad valorem tax and other revenue source projections through 1994. Table VI projects operating costs of the City. It is based upon a generalized average of the individual revenues projected forward and based upon historic trends. The City of Dania Beach maintains a very low debt/service ratio in comparison with total expenditures. At the present time the City does not plan to increase this ratio measurably in the foreseeable future. However, there is adequate capacity for a general increase in this ratio if deemed appropriate by the City. E. Capital Improvement Financing The Capital Improvement's Element is based upon the anticipated population and projected revenues to occur for the City of Dania Beach. As noted in the Capital Improvement's Element and throughout the Comprehensive Plan, the City is experiencing a substantial increase in the development of non-residential properties which are reflective of a higher tax base and lower service demands thereby providing increased projected revenues for the City of Dania Beach. A continuation of this development profile will enable the City to adequately address the capital improvements identified in the Comprehensive Plan and it will permit the City to implement the goals, objectives and policies of its Comprehensive Plan to further provide a projection of revenues and obligations which demonstrate the City's ability to address the present and immediate future capital improvement's needs for the City of Dania Beach. 6 J I. A five year forecast of revenue and expenditure has been included as Table II. The revenues are based on a 4 - 8% per annum increase and the expenditures are based upon a 2 - 4°0/0 6% per annum increase. Several new major ad valorem property tax sources have been added to the tax base which will assist the City in controlling the relationship of revenues and expenditures to a greater extent in the future. The following lists some of these major sources of ad valorem tax: 1) Airview Hilton 2) Dania Jai-Alai 3) Design Center of the America's 4) Design Center of the America's II 5) Bass Pro Shops 2. Table III identifies the debt service obligations for current outstanding bond issues. 3. Table IV identifies ad valorem and millage rate projections for the next five years. The tax base is estimated to increase on a 5 - 10% per annum basis due to the expansion of the tax base with new non-residential construction within the community. The millage rate which is based upon a 100% assessment is only predicted to increase at a 2% 1% per annum rate because of the expansion of the present tax base. 4.
