Commissioner Mikes was concerned about the wording, "very disproportionate",
used in Item 3.2 of the Firefighters' contract.
A motion was made by Commissioner Mikes, seconded by Vice-Mayor Etling to
continue Item 1.1 to January 26, 1999, so that a verbatim transcript of Item 3.2 could

City Attorney Ansbro read the title of the Ordinance. He explained that the purpose
of the ordinance was a housekeeping measure showing that Section 3.30(0 in
Chapter 3 of the Code was redundant with State law. He stated that State law was
absolutely controlling with regard to zoning regulations when properties are annexed
into a city.
A motion was made by Vice-Mayor Hyde, seconded by Vice-Mayor Etling, to adopt
the ordinance repealing Section 3.30(f) on first reading. The motion passed on the

HEARING)
Growth Management Director, Terry Virta, stated that the proposed ordinance would
set the standard for off-street parking requirements for gambling boats. Mr. Virta felt
that one parking space per every two occupants was an adequate standard to set.
He also reported that the Planning & Zoning Board recommended approval of one
parking space per every two occupants.
Commissioner Hyde was concerned about the definition of"maximum occupancy".
He requested that language from a "Certificate of Inspection of a Vessel' be used,
which would include the passenger capacity plus the crew.
Commissioner Bertino felt it would be more appropriate to require one parking space
per employee and one parking space per every two passengers.
Mayor Cali opened the public hearing. Hearing no one speak in favor or opposition,
the Mayor closed the public hearing.
A motion was made by Commissioner Mikes, seconded by Commissioner Bertino, to
adopt the Ordinance amending Sec. 6.21 on first reading and to send it back to the

City Attorney Ansbro read the title of the ordinance. He summarized for the
Commission that a moratorium had been imposed on the area north of Griffin Road,
west of 1-95, which was intended to protect the area from heavy duty industrial uses
pending the rezoning applications for a new IROM (Industrial, Research, Office,
Marine) zoning district. He explained that the extension was necessary to allow time
for the proposed Comprehensive Land Use Plan amendments to be reviewed by
state and regional agencies and then to be adopted by ordinance by the City
Commission.
Mayor Cali opened the public hearing.
Dave Reich, SW 42 Street, asked if the rezoning process would proceed and asked
for an estimated time of completion.
City Attorney Ansbro explained that the process for rezoning the area was already
underway.
Mayor Cali closed the public hearing.
A motion was made by Vice-Mayor Etling, seconded by Commissioner Hyde, to
adopt the ordinance, on first reading, extending the moratorium to July 27, 1999,

City Manager Smith requested that Item 3.3 be continued to the next meeting. He
stated that Utilities Director Robert "Bud" Palm was in the process of reviewing the
plans and had concerns about the water and sEiwc, !fines needing easements and
the possibility that the proposed development might overlay some of the utility lines.

ITEM 3.6 WAS HEARD NEXT.
3.4 VA-58-98 — "A RESOLUTION APPROVING VARIANCE REQUEST BY MICHAEL
MOGERIo1AN, REPRESENTING FESTIVAL FUN PARKS, OWNER OF PROPERTY
COMMONLY KNOWN AS (GRAND PRIX RACE-O-RAMA), FROM CHAPTER 28
ZONING, ARTICLE 16.60 RELATING TO HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS FOR
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1500-1800 NW 1ST STREET, DANIA BEACH;
PROVIDING THAT ALL RESOLUTIONS OR PARTS OF RESOLUTIONS IN
CONFLICT HEREWITH BE REPEALED TO THE EXTENT OF SUCH CONFLICT;
AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE."
City Attorney Ansbro read the title of the resolutions for Items 3.4 and Item 3.5. He
again advised that this was a quasi-judicial hearing.
Mayor Cali advised that Items 3.4, 3.5 and 4.2 would all be heard together.
Vice-Mayor Etling disclosed that he spoke with Mr. Mogerman about the general
concept of the project.
Terry Virta, Growth Management Director, explained that the first part of the three-
part request was for a height variance. The site currently has a 200-foot tall
structure that was approved by variance, however, the variance requires the
applicant to come back and obtain variances for structures that are not as high as
the 200-foot structure. As part of the new water park, one proposed structure would
be 160-feet tall and would look like part of a ferris wheel.
Mr. Virta explained that the special exception part of the request would be to expand
the facilities onto the area that had been previously occupied by the paintball
operation and the Magical Village. The operation would be a family-orientated water
theme park with various kinds of rides including a 100-foot roller coaster.
Mr. Virta explained that the site plan includes an area under the power lines that is
located to the immediate north of the site, which is zoned agricultural, and that the
zoning code does allow the property to be used for parking purposes for
development immediately adjacent to it.
In response to Commissioner Mikes' question about hours of operation, Mr. Virta
reported that the hours had not been addressed at the Planning & Zoning Board

hearing, but advised that the existing facility is open 24 hours. He also advised that
the temporary amusement park closed at 12:00 midnight.
Commissioner Mikes mentioned a letter from DCOTA requesting that an 8 foot fence
be constructed due to several occurrences of trespassing and vandalism from the
paintball facility. He was also concerned about the number of police and rescue
calls to the facility.
Mr. Mogerman advised that the fun zone operation would replace the paintball
operation; he explained that the water park and roller coaster would be constructed
on the entire front parcel of the property; the first phase would be a kiddy park
geared towards families, day camps and summer camps; the FP&L portion of the
property would be used for overflow parking and the parking lot would be built as the
park progresses and the need arises. Mr. Mogerman stated that he met with
DCOTA and advised them that the FP&L property was fenced, however, the fence
was taken down by the previous owners of the property. Mr. Mogerman stated that
a dirt barrier had been put up to deter vehicles from driving between his project and
the DCOTA property. Mr. Mogerman assumed that an agreement had been
reached with DCOTA because Grand-Prix had made plans to lease some of the
DCOTA property at the south end of the lake for better access. Mr. Mogerman
advised that only the arcades are open 24 hours and the other facilities are open
until 1:00 a.m. or 2:00 a.m. depending on the crowd.
Mayor Cali asked if Mr. Mogerman's company would agree to remove the two
billboards on the property as a condition of the approval. Mr. Mogerman advised
that the corporate office was located in California and that he was not in a position,
at this time, to agree to remove the billboards. He also advised that approximately
20 years were left on the lease.
Commissioner Bertino questioned the hours of the water park. Mr. Mogerman felt
that the roller coaster would probably remain open later than the water park,
depending on the season and the crowd.
In response to Commissioner Mikes' concern about security, Mr. Mogerman advised
that in-house security was provided as well as private security by the Florida
Highway Patrol. He stated that there is a minimum of five FHP officers on the
property on Friday and Saturday nights as well as in-house security and during the
week there is a minimum of one security officer at the facility.
Commissioner Mikes requested that this item be continued until a report could be
provided by the Fire Chief and BSO on the number of fire service calls and police
calls and whether any of the clientele are contributing to the drug problem in the
surrounding areas.
Commissioner Hyde asked for assurance that the paintball facility would no longer
exist. Mr. Mogerman assured him that it would no longer exist on the outside, but
may be housed inside the facility.
City Manager Smith stated that FHP being on site does not alleviate any law
enforcement response from BSO. He suggested the possibility of having BSO

t�
f
deputies on site. Mr. Mogerman agreed to meet with BSO to work out an
arrangement.
Commissioner Mikes was concerned about the need to properly police the facility
and that it not create a tax burden on the citizens.
Chief Anton agreed that there would be a benefit of using BSO deputies to handle
each incident on site, but in defense of FHP, he stated that a communications
system is established for FHP to communicate with BSO. He also stated that BSO
has a much better working relationship with FHP than in the past; that FHP is
handling a lot of calls such as minor assaults and fights, thereby not draining BSO's
resources; but explained that BSO does have to be called out on car burglaries and
auto thefts which are a drain on his department. Chief Anton stated that he had met
with Lt. Edwards from FHP who indicated that he was almost maxed out with
providing officers for Grand Prix and would not be opposed to BSO filling some of
the positions.
Deputy Chief Brown reported that there have been between 150 to 200 EMS calls
per year at the site.
Commissioner Mikes stated that 150 to 200 calls per year is a major expense to the
City and again suggested continuance of this item until Mr. Mogerman could meet
with the Fire Chief and the BSO Chief and work out a detail plan to take the burden
off the taxpayer.
Vice-Mayor Etling asked if a two-week delay would be a hinderance on the project.
Mr. Mogerman advised that his company is a large acquistion company and
investors are involved, he also stated that there are seasonal values involved. He
explained that the skyscraper ride is a very expensive ride that takes quite a while to
obtain and that it would hurt the company, financially, to miss the summer season.
In order to not hold up the project, Vice-Mayor Etling recommended that a condition
be placed on the variance that no Certificate of Occupancy be issued for the facility
until agreements could be reached to the satisfaction of the Fire Chief and BSO
Chief.
Mr. Mogerman felt that this would leave things wide open and he could not commit
to his people to spending millions of dollars. He urged the City Commission to settle
the matter now.
Commissioner Bertino asked if there were any specific standards for safety that
could be abided by so that Mr. Mogerman could give his corporate office in
California something concrete.
Deputy Chief Brown explained that the standards differ from place to place. He
stated that preliminary discussions had been held with Mr. Mogerman and Chief
Brown felt that an EMS detail would be necessary on Friday, Saturday and Sunday
nights for starters.

It was the general consensus of the City Commission that the whole facility should
be covered by security and an EMS detail required on Friday, Saturday and Sunday
nights.
City Attorney Ansbro asked Mr. Mogerman to have Attorney Gustafson provide him
with copies of the billboard leases. He also asked that Mr. Mogerman agree to not
exercise any option to renew the billboard leases, and that the billboards be
removed when the base term was over. Mr. Ansbro stated that he would review the
leases and advise Mr. Mogerman's corporate office in California when the billboards
must be removed.
Mayor Cali opened the public hearing. Hearing no one speak in favor or opposition,
Mayor Cali closed the public hearing.
A motion was made by Vice-Mayor Etling, seconded by Commissioner Hyde, to
adopt the resolution approving the variance with the following stipulations: Mr.
Mogerman must provide copies of the billboard leases to City Attorney Ansbro; that
the billboard leases shall not be renewed and the two existing billboards shall be
removed at the earliest possible date, based upon legal review of the leases by City
Attorney Ansbro; that no certificate of occupancy be issued until written agreements
are reached with BSO Chief Anton for police protection and with Deputy Chief Brown
for an EMS detail on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. The motion passed on the
following roll call vote:

ITEM 3.6 AND ITEM 4.1 WERE HEARD TOGETHER AFTER ITEM 3.3.
3.6 VA-48-98 — "A RESOLUTION APPROVING VARIANCE REQUEST BY HERB
GREEN, PROJECT ENGINEER FOR AVID ENGINEERING, INC., REPRESENTING
MARK SHELDON OF REGAL VENTURES, INC./PUBLIX, FROM CHAPTER 26,
SECTION 26.50 (B) AND CHAPTER 28, ZONING 6.64 IN RELATION TO
CONSTRUCTION OF A PUBLIX SHOPPING CENTER AT THE SOUTHWEST
CORNER OF GRIFFIN ROAD AND SW 31ST AVENUE. PROVIDING THAT ALL
RESOLUTIONS OR PARTS OF RESOLUTIONS IN CONFLICT HEREWITH BE
REPEALED TO THE EXTENT OF SUCH CONFLICT; AND PROVIDING FOR AN
EFFECTIVE DATE."
Variance Descriptions:
a) Chapter 26, Vegetation, Section 26.50 (b) requires a six-foot masonry wall or
solid wooden fence five (5) feet off the residential zoned or used property.
The petitioner is requesting approval of a variance to allow the existing six-
foot high masonry wall to satisfy the requirement.
b) Chapter 28, Zoning 6.64, Principal Arterial Commercial Design Standards
Overlay, (4d) requires roofs to be pitched with generous overhangs and
incombustible material such as shingle, clay tile, cement tile, or metal. The
petitioner is requesting approval of a variance to construct a "Parapet Roof' in
lieu of a peak roof on the proposed Publix building.
City Attorney Ansbro advised that this was a quasi-judicial hearing. Persons
requesting to speak on Items 3.6 and 4.1 were asked to stand and City Attorney
Ansbro administered the oath to all those standing.
Terry Virta, Growth Management Director, advised that the variance and site plan for
the Publix Shopping Center at Oakbridge, was continued from December 8,1998, to
allow the petitioner to reconfigure the building from the southwest corner to the
southeast corner on the site. Mr. Virta explained that a meeting was held with the
developers, residents and himself, which resulted in three sets of opinions as to the
new location of the building. Mr. Virta advised that the petitioners have requested a
variance from the design guidelines and requirements to construct a masonry fence
or solid wood fence as part of the landscaping buffer.
Mayor Cali asked for disclosures from the City Commission.
Vice-Mayor Etling advised that he was contacted by a representative of the
Oakbridge Homeowners'Association and one other resident.
Commissioner Bertino advised that he was contacted by the president of the
Oakbridge Homeowners'Association.

Mayor Cali advised that he spoke with a number of residents, the president and
representatives of the homeowner's association.
Mayor Cali opened the public hearing at this time.
Herb Green, Avid Engineering, explained the change in location of the building and
the additional improvements as requested at the last meeting for the Publix site. Mr.
Green reported that most of the homeowners agreed with the change in the project
and that the site plan had been modified three times in an effort to work with the City
and the residential community.
Vice-Mayor Etling questioned the safety of people backing out of parking spaces on
the northwest section facing Griffin Road and suggested that the spaces be angled
with one-way going west. Mr. Green advised that the width in the aisle is sufficient
to support two cars and that the cross access provides traffic control with a STOP
sign at the entry with a right turn-in. He also advised that a deceleration lane was
required by the Department of Transportation because a minimum throat depth was
required at that connection.
Commissioner Mikes asked that taller palm trees be planted that would be more
appropriate to the 62-foot height of the building. Mr. Green mentioned that the
building height is closer to 30 foot and that the figure on the site plan is a relative
elevation figure. Mr. Green was of the understanding that City Code only permits a
maximum building height of 35 feet.
Cheryl A. Virgo, President, Oakbridge Homeowners'Association, 3124 SW 50
Street, commended Publix for working with the residents and advised that the
majority of the residents felt that Publix would be an asset to the community;
however, on behalf of the Association, she expressed concerns about trucks exiting
onto 32nd Avenue; directional signage for the site and truck delivery times as it
relates to the safety of children. Ms. Virgo agreed that higher foliage is needed for
the building and mentioned that she received concerns from residents of Avon Isles
about traffic backup into the complex.
Conrad H. Taylor, Vice-President, Oakbridge Homeowners'Association, 3135 SW
35 Street, mentioned that residents support Publix but were concerned about the
trucks exiting on SW 32nd Avenue due to the safety of children and residents.
Blanca Garcia, 4927 SW 31 Terrace, expressed the same concern about delivery
trucks exiting onto SW 32nd Avenue and presented a petition from residents
requesting a "NO TRUCK TRAFFIC PERMITTED" sign at SW 32nd Avenue and
Griffin Road (the only main road into the Oakbridge Community). The petition was
marked "Exhibit A".
Bill Garcia, 4927 SW 31 Terrace, expressed the same concern for truck traffic
exiting onto SW 32nd Avenue and advised the City Commission that other Publix
stores have made concessions with other cities by agreeing to make deliveries
between 4:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. (a 6-hour period) in an effort to work with other
communities.

Mayor Cali mentioned that Mr. Garcia came up with the idea to relocate the Publix
building and that many of his concerns had been taken into consideration.
Susan Casalatti, Treasurer, Oakbridge Homeowners' Association, agreed with the
previous concerns that had been presented. She mentioned that she had suggested
the trucks be routed through the Publix parking lot, but appeared that the suggestion
would be unacceptable to Publix.
John Hickey, 4943 SW 31 Terrace, advised that many homes would still be affected
by trucks moving in and out of the community even though the building had been
moved. Mr. Hickey mentioned that several residents would like the delivery times to
be firmed up and would like the height of the wall to be raised to nine or ten feet. He
urged the City Commission to deny the variance request.
Doyle Rowan, resident of Oakbridge, suggested that Griffin Road be renamed to
Dania Beach Boulevard and urged the City Commission to come up with another
alternative besides 32nd Avenue, for the trucks to exit the project.
In response to some of the concerns, Mr. Green advised that trucks would only be
exiting on 32nd Avenue because it would be physically impossible for the trucks to
turn around if they entered on 32nd Avenue. Mr. Green mentioned that many of the
concerns about the wall, noise abatement and security were brought up at the
homeowners' meetings. He felt that a denser landscaping would provide better
security and noise abatement than a block wall. As requested by the City
Commission, he explained that a wall would be constructed on the dock area; an
additional 6-foot buffering would be added at the dock that would essentially be 8
feet higher at the dock connection since the trucks would be down two-feet below
the finished floor. He agreed that the residents should add a sign at the entrance to
their development designating "Private for Oakbridge Residents". He also pointed
out that one of the requirements for the project was to construct a U-turn on Griffin
Road at 32nd Avenue to eliminate having to make an illegal U-turn heading
westbound. Mr. Green explained that delivery times conflict with the school buses
and in an effort to resolve this issue, he advised that Publix was willing to build a bus
bay on SW 32nd Avenue for children to be picked up.
Mayor Cali confirmed with Mr. Green that the Broward County School Board has not
been contacted about picking up children on SW 32nd Avenue and that the children
are currently being picked up on Griffin Road.
Tom Adams, Real Estate Manager, stated that Publix had set aside an area for the
bus bay to be built, but did not feel it was Publix's responsibility to address the issue
about relocating the bus stop with the Broward County School Board. He felt that
the homeowners should make the request to the School Board themselves. Mr.
Adams requested that delivery times be allowed from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. in return
for the additional things that Publix had agreed to do to accommodate the residents.
Mr. Adams stated that Publix would need some use of both 315t and 32nd Avenues
and explained that the site plan was redesigned because the residents asked that
the trucks exit onto 32nd Avenue instead of 315t Avenue. Mr. Adams mentioned that

there is a vested right on the commercial property to use the access and Publix
would try to use it on a minimal basis.
Vice-Mayor Etling agreed that the responsibility for directing concerns about
relocating the school bus stop should come from the residents and he advised them
to contact the Transportation Office of the Broward County School Board.
In response to Vice-Mayor Etling's question about adding the U-turn at 33`d Avenue,
Mr. Green advised that there was no median break at 32nd Avenue and that the
Department of Transportation would not allow one at 32nd Avenue nor 3151 Avenue.
Mr. Green explained that the median had to be modified to allow a deceleration lane
for a U-turn to occur on 33`d Avenue.
Vice-Mayor Etling felt that the entrance to Publix on 315'Avenue would eventually
cut-down on the number of U-turns on Griffin Road once g of used to entering
at 315'Avenue. people
Mayor Cali asked whether Publix could request most of the service trucks to use 31"
Avenue for entering and exiting the store. Mr. Adams was not sure that he could
enforce this request.
Commissioner Mikes commended Publix for their efforts in accommodating the
residents in the area and for the landscaping on the western side of the building,
however, he asked Mr. Adams if the LJ3 Wax Myrtle trees noted on the landscaping
plan could be replaced with clusters of Royal Palms.
Mr. Adams stated that 22 trees would have to be replaced with the Royal Palms and
the cost would be estimated at $10,000 to $15,000 more.
Commissioner Mikes stated that Royal Palms usually cost $150.00 and should not
cost Publix more than $3,000.00 for 14-foot Royal Palm trees. Mr. Adams agreed to
commit to the$3,000.00.
Commissioner Hyde also commended Publix and agreed that the Royal Palms
would look better. He also agreed that signs are needed to ensure that trucks would
not turn into the Oakbridge complex.
Robin Ellercon, 3120 SW 50 Street, mentioned that standing water remains in her
parking lot after it rains and requested that Mr. Green explain the drainage
connection into the lakes. Mr. Green advised that he reviewed the existing permit
with South Florida Water Management District and reported that the Oakridge
system is tied into the Oakbridge development in terms of drainage. He stated that
the systems are interconnected, that they share pond storage and have outfall to the
Dania Cut-off Canal. He also explained that the outfall crosses 315`Avenue
underneath the canal and into the Dania Cut-off Canal. Mr. Green advised that the
five acres of land that Publix will sit on was accounted for in the Oakbridge drainage
system.
Ms. Ellercon inquired as to whom is responsible for the paving of SW 32nd Avenue.

City Manager Smith advised that SW 32"d Avenue was a private road and that the
paving would have to be worked eui between the homeowners and Publix.
Mr. Green advised that the plans and specifications stipulate that the contractor
repair any damage to existing facilities.
Cheryl A. Virgo asked for written confirmation from Publix regarding the issues that
have been discussed as well as confirmation that they will repair any damage that
may be created by the trucks using SW 32"d Avenue.
Vice-Mayor Etling advised Ms. Virgo that the meeting was being recorded on tape.
Dan Bennett, 4968 SW 32"d Terrace, mentioned that most residents are looking
forward to Publix coming into the neighborhood and that everyone knew when they
purchased their properties that the front parcel on the site was zoned commercial.
He didn't feel that any of the concerns would be difficult to resolve.
Tom Murphy, 4963 SW 32"d Avenue, mentioned that the Planning & Zoning Board
had recommended delivery times for the trucks and felt that the City Commission
should approve their recommendation. Mr. Murphy was concerned that the tot lot
area for children would be located at the far end of the truck turn-around area at 32"d
Avenue and that there was no signage on 32"d Avenue saying "NO TRUCK
ENTRANCE". Mr. Murphy was also concerned that the plans did not account for the
reduction of over 1,000 square feet of green space that would be removed on SW
32"d Avenue.
Hearing no further comments, Mayor Cali closed the public hearing.
In order to show that they do not intend to use the space for a truck turn-around
area, Mr. Green stated that Publix would commit to constructing a bus bay only if the
homeowners obtain the necessary approvals from the Broward County School
Board. Mr. Green advised that the impervious areas are outside of the project area
and boundary limits, and the reduction of the impervious area was caused by
eliminating the out parcel, which created more green space for the overall site.
Commissioner Bertino felt that it would be more logical to set the morning delivery
times at 8:00 or 9:00 a.m. and recommended that Publix schedule deliveries
throughout the day and into the early evening to alleviate the trucks infringing upon
the car traffic.
Mr. Adams disagreed with truck delivery any later than 7:00 a.m. since the store
would open at 7:00 a.m. and there would be a need to get merchandise into the
store in the early hours of the day. He also pointed out that it takes time to unload
the merchandise from the trucks and get the product onto the shelves.
Commissioner Hyde felt that the delivery times could be worked out as long as there
are no trucks stacked up in the early hours of the day and he felt that it would be
better to get the deliveries over with earlier in the day and not linger into the evening
hours.

7.2 Request for abatement by James Lavin for/and Village Club LLP, 500 NE 2
Avenue, regarding CEB98-0119.
Mindy Feltson, property manager for Village Club Apartments, stated that a fine
totaling $6,000 had accrued on the property from September 1, 1998, through
October 29, 1998. She explained that when the property owner was cited for doing
renovations without a permit, a permit application was submitted by the contractor
and Ms. Feltson was under the assumption that once the permit application was
submitted, they would be in the process of complying and would not be fined.
Ken Koch, Building Official explained that a Code Enforcement complaint was
received on May 1, 1998, for work being performed at 500 NE 2 Avenue without a
permit and that a Notice of Violation was mailed on June 26, 1998; from that date
until the date of compliance of October 29, 1998, 164 days had lapsed. He stated
that a permit application had been submitted 4 times and rejected, and was not
approved until the 5th submittal. The property owner was notified on October 22,
1998, that the permit application had been approved and could be picked up. The
permit was not obtained by the contractor until October 27, 1998. Mr. Koch reported
that the Planning &Zoning Board recommended denial of the abatement. Mr. Koch
also reported that the property owner was cited again for installing water heaters
without a permit and asked the Commission to keep that in mind when making their
decision.
Ms. Feltson explained that several old water heaters had been in their storage room
and that they were trying to dispose of them. However, only one water heater was
changed by Sam Jolley Plumbing who obtained a permit.
In response to Mayor Cali, Mr. Koch stated that submitting a permit application does
not meet compliance, the permit must be issued in order to meet compliance.
Rick Bennett, contractor, stated that he was in the hospital when the notification was
sent to the property owner and was not made aware of the violation until some 20
days later. Mr. Bennett contacted Frank Osorio, Code Enforcement Officer, and
advised him that an architect had been hired to draw up blueprints to be submitted
for a building permit. He stated that Mr. Osorio advised him that he would bring the
Code Enforcement Board up to date at the August 3, 1998, meeting, and that Mr.
Bennett would not need to attend the meeting. Mr. Bennett also stated that the work
stopped until after the permit was issued but admitted that the job was 95%
complete.
Mr. Koch advised the Commission that the Code Enforcement Board gave the
property owner an additional 30 days to comply.
A motion was made by Commissioner Mikes, seconded by Vice-Mayor Etling, to
deny the abatement request. The motion passed on the following 4/1 roll call vote:
Commissioner Bertino—yes Vice-Mayor Etling —yes

Stern, claiming that the property had gone into foreclosure before the City's lien was
recorded and asked that the item be deferred pending receipt and review of
documentation from David Stern's office.
A motion was made by Commissioner Bertino, seconded by Vice-Mayor Etling, to
defer Item 7.3 until the legal documents can be reviewed by the City Attorney. The
motion passed unanimously.

but had to leave due to illness and asked for a two week continuance.
A motion was made by Commissioner Bertino, seconded by Commissioner Hyde, to
continue Item 7.4 until January 26, 1999. The motion passed unanimously.
7.5 Discussion of Dania Beach Grill Lease.
City Manager Smith explained that the Beach Grille Lease was due to expire in
February and advised that the current lease holder was interested in extending his
lease. He asked for direction as to whether to enter into negotiations with the
current lease holder or advertise for Requests for Proposals (RFP).
Commissioner Mikes thought that an RFP would be appropriate but thought that the
hours of operation should be set by the Commission. He also felt that the
concession rights should not be included in the lease for the beach grill.
Mayor Cali thought that the City should negotiate with the current lease holder, first
and if not successful, then proceed with the RFP process.
Mr. Demas, current lease holder, advised the City Commission that he had
submitted a ten-year lease proposal to the City Manager.
City Attorney Ansbro explained that the proposal had not been reviewed, pending
direction from the City Commission first.
A motion was made by Vice-Mayor Etling, seconded by Commissioner Hyde,
directing the City Manager and City Attorney to review the proposal submitted by Mr.
Demas and to bring back a recommendation to the City Commission at the January
26, 1999, regular meeting. The motion passed on the following 4/1 roll call vote:

OFFICE OF THE MAYOR
CITY OF DANIA BEACH
PROCLAMATION
WHEREAS, Tropical Acres opened as a steak house in 1949 and soon became
a favorite eating place for area residents; and
WHEREAS, subsequent to being gutted by fire in the early 1960's, Jack Studiale,
cousin of the original owner, encouraged him to rebuild and later purchased the popular
eatery which has remained in his family ever since; and
WHEREAS, the name "Tropical Acres" has become synonymous with excellence
in fine dining and has stood the test of time, being a member of a dying breed of
successful independently owned and operated restaurants; and
WHEREAS, the success of this establishment can be attributed not only to the
high quality and reasonably priced food served but to the people employed by the
Studiales, most of whom have amassed many years of service and who strive to make
each and every customer feel like they are a member of a large friendly family; and
WHEREAS, the City Commission of the City of Danja Beach Florida, wishes to
recognize its importance to our community, its owners and its many long-time
employees, all of whom have made certain over the years that each and every person
entering its portals will receive not only a delicious meal but a unique dining experience
as well.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Jim Cali, as Mayor of the City of Dania, Florida, do
hereby proclaim January 14, 1999,
"TROPICAL ACRES DAY"
in the City of Dania Beach and urge all of my fellow citizens to join me in recognizing the
contributions this restaurant, its owners and staff, have made to our community.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused this seal to
be affixed this 12T"day of January, 1999.
