THE PROPER CITY OFFICIALS TO EXECUTE A LEASE WITH THE CITY OF
COOPER CITY FOR USE OF A CITY OF DANIA BEACH EMERGENCY
MEDICAL VEHICLE; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; FURTHER, PROVIDING

Vice-Mayor McElyea expressed his concern that the lease had already been
approved by Cooper City before the City Commission was even made aware of it.
Fire Chief Ken Land offered his apology to the Commission and stated that the
1991 rescue vehicle was presently being used as a back-up vehicle only. He felt
the City should be willing to cooperate with other municipalities in case Dania

1.5 "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF DANIA BEACH, FLORIDA, APPROVING
THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF HOLLYWOOD AND THE CITY OF
DANIA BEACH FOR PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR SERVICES
ON RESCUE VEHICLES FOR DANIA BEACH'S FIRE DEPARTMENT;
PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; FURTHER, PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE
DATE."
Commissioner Mikes asked who was currently maintaining and servicing the
vehicles. Chief Land explained that a single individual, certified in auto service
and repairs, had been maintaining the vehicles, but because he joined the Fort
Lauderdale Fire Department, he now has a limited amount of time to work on the
vehicles. He stated that his department had done research on the amount being
charged by this individual and discovered that his hourly rate was slightly higher
than others. He does not want to have an exclusive contract with a single vendor,
but would like to have other resources available for service and repairs.
Vice-Mayor McElyea mentioned that the City has a mechanic and he is not paid
anywhere near$45 per hour. Chief Land explained that the City's mechanic is
more comfortable with servicing the everyday vehicles such as the suburbans, the
cars and the pickups.
Commissioner Etling pointed out a scrivener's error on Page 7 under the
Indemnification Clause regarding the City's liability. He stated that the contract
reads zero dollars and it should read $100,000 in accordance with State Statutes.
He also pointed out that Page 4 refers to an OEM warranty, however there is no
definition of OEM in the contract. Chief Land explained that OEM stands for
Original Equipment Manufacturer. Commissioner Etling was concerned about the
wording, under warranty, which read "all repairs will be under warranty for 90
days"and later it reads "the same failure occurring within the 90 day period". He
was concerned about a claim being made for a repair that was not necessarily
caused by a failure, and if the equipment should fail subsequently during that
period, the manufacturer would not be obligated to honor the warranty. He felt that
some clarification should be made.
Commissioner Cali felt that the City should think about putting out its own bid.
Chief Land explained that Pembroke Pines just recently went to bid and the bids
that were received were no where near the amount that Broward County was
offering.
A motion was made by Commissioner Etling, seconded by Commissioner Mikes,
to adopt the resolution with further clarification by the City Attorney to Page 4,
Section 3.2, relating to warranty and Page 7, Section 7.1, relating to the
indemnification amount. The motion passed on the following 5/0 roll call vote:

1.9 "AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DANIA
BEACH, FLORIDA. REQUIRING THAT OCCUPATIONAL LICENSES BE
OBTAINED FOR RENTALS OF SINGLE FAMILY AND TWO FAMILY (DUPLEX)
RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY; AMENDING SECTION 15-7. ENTITLED

OF THE CITY OF DANIA BEACH CODE OF ORDINANCES; PROVIDING FOR
CONFLICTS; FURTHER, PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE." (FIRST
READING OF ORDINANCE)
Attorney Ansbro read the title of the ordinance.
Commissioner Mikes stated that he asked City Attorney Ansbro to draft this
ordinance because there are a lot of absentee landlords of properties within the
City and because there are a lot of properties within the City that cannot be
inspected for fire and code violations. He also stated that a lot of the criminal
activities are coming from the rental properties. This ordinance would require all
owners of rental properties to obtain an occupational license which would make
the property subject to a fire and code inspection, which would ultimately require
owners to bring their properties into compliance with City Codes.
Commissioner Etling agreed that the ordinance was admirable and well needed
but felt that including single-family dwellings would create an enforcement
nightmare and cost the City a tremendous amount of staff time and police time.
He felt it would be difficult to determine which single-family dwellings were being
rented.
Mayor Bertino state that when there is criminal activity discovered at a single-
family dwelling, it could then be determined whether the dwelling is occupied by
the owner or tenant, and then inspections could be made.
Commissioner Etling stated that the City could not enter any home without a
search warrant.
City Attorney Ansbro concurred that if the City were denied access to a property
for an inspection, an administrative search warrant would have to be obtained.
Vice-Mayor McElyea also felt that single-family dwellings should be excluded.

Commissioner Cali asked that language be added to make new property owners
aware that when they apply for water service that they also must apply for an
i
occupational license.
Commissioner Etling pointed out that Dania Beach does not serve the whole city
with water.
Mayor Betino suggested that a mandatory inspection be done of every property
before it is sold and the inspection fee could be an automatic lien until it is paid.
City Attorney Ansbro advised that the City's Minimum Housing Code allows for
inspections on an annual basis.
A motion was made by Commissioner Cali, seconded by Vice-Mayor McElyea, to
adopt the ordinance, on first reading, with the understanding that City Attorney
Ansbro research the inclusion of language forcing inspections at closings, for the

ITEM 6.6 WAS HEARD NEXT
2. BIDS:
i
2.1 Recommendation on awarding RFP for Solid Waste Disposal and
Collection Contract.
"A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF DANIA BEACH, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING
THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO AN AGREEMENT WITH
FOR SOLID WASTE AND RECYCLING SERVICES;
PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; FURTHER, PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE
DATE."
City Manager Smith explained that the solid waste agreements have expired and
RFPs were advertised and received for this service. The top two proposals
received would result in a savings to the residents by reducing the fee and
improving the level of service. Mr. Smith advised that Waste Management
submitted the lowest proposal and Browning-Ferris Industries (BFI) submitted the
next lowest proposal. He also advised that Waste Management was recently
acquired by US Waste and he questioned the financial stability of the company; he
was concerned about transition issues due to recycling and using the roll out
containers; and he was also concerned about the generation factors that different
proposers had used. He would like to continue providing the citizens with an
appropriate level of service at the best price and with the highest quality. The City
reserves the right and option to accept or reject any proposal. He felt that the
lowest, best and most responsive proposal was received from BFI and
recommended the contract be awarded to BFI. He explained that Waste
Management was not willing to cooperate with additional trash removal during the
time of an approaching hurricane and the City had to turn to BFI who was willing to
assist the City. He also stated that Waste Management decided to start charging
the City for the dumpsters located within the public works compound, which were
provided free of charge at the beginning of the contract. BFI was willing to provide
three dumpsters for the City at no charge. Mr. Smith did not feel that Waste
Management had been responsive to the City's needs over the years.
Commissioner Mikes expressed his concern about debris not being picked up prior
to the hurricane. He explained that the debris in his neighborhood is usually
picked up by noon and by late afternoon it was still not picked up.
Tony Spadacia, Waste Management, stated that he could not imagine that his
company declined or refused to pick up debris prior to a hurricane. He stated that
Waste Management had the usual one truck in the City, however he concurred
that the job was not finished and they were not able to provide any additional
trucks. He was advised by public works that they had obtained another firm to
help pick up trash and asked if Waste Management would authorize delivery of
debris to the Reuter facility, which they were willing to do. He knew nothing about
his firm refusing to cooperate. He stated that his company has done a very good

f

/
and responsible job around the County and was well able to provide service to this
community.
Mayor Bertino asked if Waste Management was willing to include a statement in
the contract, which would assure that additional service would be provided in the
case of a hurricane or natural disaster. Mr. Spadacia stated that his firm was
prepared to provide a written commitment, which would be guaranteed under a
performance bond.
Commissioner Cali stated that the financial stability of Waste Management had
been in question and would not support a contract with Waste Management.
Mr. Spadacia stated that the financial stability of his company, as it relates to
Florida and to the proposed agreement with the City of Dania Beach, is not
affected, nor has it affected the company's ability to obtain a performance bond
that would protect the City of Dania Beach 100%.
In response to Mayor Bertino, City Manager Smith stated that the cost difference
between Waste Management and BFI would be an additional cost of$1.40 per
month to the resident. The total contract cost would be approximately $90,000.00
more, annually.
Bill Laystrom, Attorney for Waste Management, urged the City Commission to do
what is right for the City residents by choosing the most responsive as well as the
lowest bidder. He also stated that the additional cost to the City over the first five
years of the contract would be $450,000.00.
Bob Haley, District Manager for BFI, stated that his company has been providing
services to the City of Dania Beach for quite a while and their actions speak for
themselves. He felt that the difference of$1.43 was well justified by the quality
and level of service that the City has been provided by BFI.
Mayor Bertino was not concerned that Waste Management would be going out of
business. He felt that a savings Of$90,000 to $100,000 was a tremendous
amount of money. He suggested that language be included in the contract that if
emergency pick-ups are not done, then another firm would be hired and be paid by
the company holding the contract.
Commissioner Etling and Commissioner Mikes were more concerned about
reliable service rather than the lowest bid.
A motion was made by Commissioner Etling, seconded by Commissioner Cali, to
adopt the resolution entering into an agreement with Browning-Ferris Industries
(BFI) for solid waste and recycling services, and should an agreement not be
reached with BFI, staff was directed to negotiate with All Service Refuse. The
motion passed on the following 4/1 roll call vote:

AND EQUIPMENT IN THE AMOUNT OF $10,128.00 FROM ANYTHING IN
FENCE, INC., WITHOUT COMPETITIVE BIDDING AND WITHOUT

INSTALLATION OF FENCING AT CHESTER BYRD PARK; PROVIDING THAT
ALL RESOLUTIONS IN CONFLICT HEREWITH BE REPEALED TO THE
EXTENT OF SUCH CONFLICT; FURTHER, PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE
DATE."
City Manager Smith stated that staffs recommendation was to award the bid to
Anything in Fence for 2.0 oz zinc-coated fencing for Chester Byrd Park. He also
stated that the vinyl-coated fence, as recommended by Commissioner Etling,
would cost an additional $3,800.00.
Commissioner Etling strongly recommended the vinyl-coated fence.
Vice-Mayor McElyea was concerned that the fence would be torn down as soon as
it was put up due to vandalism. He felt that the fence should be repaired, not
replaced by new fencing.
A motion was made by Commissioner Etling, seconded by Commissioner
Mikes, to award the bid to Crawford Fence for the vinyl-coated fence. The
motion failed on the following 213 roll call vote:
Commissioner Cali— no Vice-Mayor McElyea — no
Commissioner Etling —yes Mayor Bertino— no
Commissioner Mikes - yes
Staff was directed to obtain costs to repair the fence at Chester Byrd Park.

In response to Commissioner Mikes, City Manager Smith stated that staff
recommended the continuance of the Turn-Around Dania Beach Program. He
explained that a new proposal was received by Dr. Herman Wrice, which
incorporates six marches during the year for a fee of$20,000. In addition to the
marches, neighborhood training would be done along with helping the City
coordinate the All American Cities Program and some other community based
organization training for an additional $15,000 per year. He also stated that there
was an additional component for training police officers at a fee of$15,000.00, but
he did not feel it was the City's responsibility to train police officers and did not
recommend that portion of the proposal.

Commissioner Mikes expressed the concern of neighbors over the proposed site
of the new fire station. He suggested that the City stop putting any more money
into the site and look for other options.
Chief Land agreed that the proposed site would not be viable to the surrounding
neighbors. He asked for direction from the City Commission.
City Manager Smith stated that staff and the consultants did the best they could to
come up with a site plan and a building that would blend in with the neighborhood.
He felt that the architectural quality of the building was superb and stated that the
majority of the site would have been left in a natural state with a beautiful oak
hammock. Staff had already made concessions in terms of operation to minimize
the noise impact to the homes. He stated that many fire stations around the
County are located in residential neighborhoods, but agreed that the City
encountered a very emotional group of citizens and he sympathized with their
concerns.
Commissioner Cali suggested that the current location for Fire Station 93 be
abandoned and that an official offer be made to the residents to purchase the land.
He felt that the City should be very cautious on proceeding with any location
selection due to the annexation vote in a year. He suggested that a meeting be
set up with Broward County to discuss various options to provide fire services to
the area.
The City Commission generally agreed that the Alandco property location for Fire
Station #93 would be abandoned. Fire Chief Land was directed to pursue other
location sites. The City Manager was directed to schedule a Workshop Meeting
with State Representative Tim Ryan and fire service representatives from Broward
County and Hollywood, to discuss alternative options for providing fire services in
the western portion of the City.
