Notice is hereby given that the City Commission of the City of Dania Beach will conduct
a public hearing to consider reimposing stormwater assessments for the provision of stormwater
management services within the City of Dania Beach for the Fiscal Year beginning October 1,
1999.
The stormwater assessments are based upon the estimated amount of stormwater
runoff generated by impervious surface on each parcel of property. Impervious surfaces include
the rooftop, patios, driveways, parking lots and similar areas. The City has determined that the
median single-family residence in the City includes 1,836 square feet of impervious surface,
which is defined as one "equivalent stormwater unit" or "ESU". The annual stormwater
assessment rate for the upcoming fiscal year will be $20.00 for each ESU.
Generally, the number of ESUs will be calculated individually for each parcel of property
by dividing the impervious surface area by 1,836. However, since verifying the impervious
surface for each single-family residence in the City is a practical impossibility, single-family
residences with impervious surface area between 918 square feet and 3,672 square feet,
inclusive, have been assigned one ESU. Smaller single-family residences have been assigned
one-half ESU and larger single-family residences have been calculated individually.
Copies of the Stormwater Utility Ordinance (Ordinance No. 13-96), the Initial Stormwater
Assessment Resolution (Resolution No. 73-96), the Final Stormwater Assessment Resolution
(Resolution No. 86-96, as amended by Resolution No. 103-96 and Resolution 116-96), the
Preliminary Rate Resolution initiating the annual process of updating the Assessment Roll and
reimposing the Stormwater Assessments, and the updated Stormwater Assessment Roll for the
upcoming fiscal year are available for inspection at the Acting City Clerk's office.
If you have any questions, please contact the City Utility Department at (954)921-8700,
extension 321.
The above special assessments will be collected on the ad valorem tax bill to be mailed
in November 1999, as authorized by section 197.3632, Florida Statutes. Failure to pay the
assessments will cause a tax certificate to be issued against the property, which may result in a
loss of title. These special assessment programs proved to be successful last year in fairly and
efficiently providing a much needed alternative funding and collection approach for these vital
and essential services.
A public hearing will be held at 7:30 p.m. on August 10, 1999, in the City Commission
Chambers of City Hall, 100 West Dania Beach Boulevard, Dania Beach, Florida, for the purpose

of receiving public comment on the proposed assessments. All affected property owners have a
right to appear at the hearing and to file written objections with the City Commission within 20
days of this notice. If a person decides to appeal any decision made by the City Commissioner
with respect to any matter considered at the hearing, such person will need a record of the
proceedings and may need to ensure that a verbatim record is made, including the testimony
and evidence upon which the appeal is to be made. In accordance with the Americans with
Disabilities Act, persons needing a special accommodation or an interpreter to participate in this
proceeding should contact Sheryl Chapman, Acting City Clerk at (954)921-8700, extension 203,
at least two days prior to the date of the hearing.
