Minutes of Regular Meeting 2
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday,June 24,2008—7:00 p.m.
Mayor Jones pulled Item #9.1 to be discussed at this time.
Mayor Jones resumed Item #6, Citizen Comments, at the completion of the Public Hearing on
Item #9.1.
Reverend Bob Sands, on behalf of Griffin Road Baptist Church, clarified that he had an issue
with the Code Compliance Unit this week. Although there was an unpleasant bureaucratic
process involved in the matter, he credited the City Manager for addressing his complaints.
Reverend Sands indicated that the Church was told several years ago that they did not need
permits for their yard sales, however, they were cited last Saturday for not having one. They also
received a code violation for not having an occupational license, although the Church has been at
that location since 1959. He pointed out that things were not handled appropriately in the City
and remarked he is concerned that no one seems to know the codes. Reverend Sands noted he is
not paranoid, but wants to make sure there is no target on his back. He further stated that he does
not want Code Enforcement to continue harassing or being rude to his Church. Reverend Sands
hoped that government and church would both work together to help the community during these
difficult times.
Commissioner Bertino noted it was never intended for non-profit organizations to be included in
the cost of permits for yard sales. He asked the City Attorney to review the ordinance to include
the language for non-profits.
Commissioner Anton would like the churches to get a permit because they are located in
residential areas and impact the adjacent neighbors. He said the fee should be waived, but we
need to have control of these events. Commissioner Anton thought the churches should be
restricted to only two yard sales per year.
It was the consensus of the Commission for the City Attorney to review the ordinance and survey
other cities for their ordinances.
George Jason, 4549 SW 371h Avenue, congratulated the City for the CRA Charettes held over the
weekend. He was disappointed to see there was a small turnout from the community, and
commented that people should get involved and support their municipal government. Mr. Jason
noted the CERT Workshop would be held on Monday, June 30, at 7:00 p.m. at Fire Station #1
and encouraged people to join the Program.
Kurt Ely, 245 SW ls` Avenue, distributed pictures to the Commission on the second item he will
discuss. He was happy to report that sidewalks on SW 3`d Street have now been installed,
however there is still one small section that has not been completed. The second item relates to
the pictures of the bus bench in front of Dania Elementary. Mr. Ely indicated that a handicap
person has to go into the swale because the bench has been turned sideways. He asked that the
position of the bench be corrected. Mr. Ely also noted there is no trash barrel at this location.
Commissioner Flury commented that the bench issue was discussed at the time of the renewal of
the contract with the current bus bench company. She thought the way the bench was set showed
lack of consideration to people who cannot fend for themselves. Commissioner Flury requested
Minutes of Regular Meeting 3
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday,June 24,2008—7:00 p.m.
the City Manager immediately send a letter to the company advising them to address the
situation and reminding them that the benches should be ADA compliant. She further said that
Public Services workers should pick up trash when they see it.
Vice-Mayor Castro commended Kurt Ely, Lisa Young, Joe Van Eron, Derrick Hankerson and
everyone involved in trying to have the sidewalks installed for the benefit of our community.
Betty Sokol, 609 NW 10`h Street, noted the Melaleuca Gardens area has a problem with
vandalism. She commented that there is a fence at 528 NW 8ch Street that is broken and children
are coming into the neighborhood through it. Ms. Sokol advised she has a petition signed by the
neighbors to have the fence fixed, and asked the Commission for their assistance.
Commissioner Anton clarified the fence belongs to Broward County Aviation.
Teddy Bohanan, 302 SW 15`h Street, commented the City has a problem with blight. There are
foreclosed homes in her area as well as drug dealers. She asked the City Attorney to look into
what the City of Coral Springs is doing to combat blight.

Mayor Jones opened the Public Hearing.
Bob Mikes, 835 NW 17th Avenue, admitted that he is responsible for the flyer that is circulating
in the community. He said the ordinance requires a five (5) feet setback from the sidewalk
which does not allow room for a boat. Mr. Mikes argued that the five (5) feet setback was never
in the code.
City Attorney Ansbro clarified the five (5) feet setback has been in the code for the 10 years that
he has been with the City, and was not changed in this ordinance.
Mr. Mikes said this ordinance should have been discussed at a Workshop before coming to the
City Commission.
Commissioner Flu questioned why Mr. Mikes did not initiate the change when he was on the
Flury q Y g
Commission.
Minutes of Regular Meeting 8
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday, June 24, 2008—7:00 p.m.
Commissioner Anton suggested the wording be changed for the setback. He was also concerned
with the restricted height of the boats. Commissioner Anton thought this was a good opportunity
to address these issues and make the necessary changes. Commissioner Anton also suggested we
increase the boat length to 29 feet for the mobile living units.
Mayor Jones advised the audience that if a Commissioner is speaking, they need to be respectful.
Vice-Mayor Castro acknowledged that she drove around the neighborhood with Mr. Mikes and
that she also drove around the neighborhood with Code Compliance. She said Code Compliance
staff noted vehicles or boats should not be parked on sidewalks because they damage the
sidewalk and then the property owners must pay for the repairs. She noted she is in agreement
with the suggestions made by Commissioner Anton. Vice-Mayor Castro remarked that she
supports the marine industry in our City, but also wants our community to look nice and clean.
Commissioner Bertino noted we need to move forward and take care of the business at hand. He
acknowledged there are problems with the ordinance that need to be reviewed. Commissioner
Bertino requested we address the other changes, and asked that Code Compliance not cite
anyone on these three issues until the Commission has adopted a new ordinance incorporating
the changes.
Commissioner Bertino motioned to adopt Ordinance #2008-015, on second reading, and for
the City Attorney to move forward with the remaining items; seconded by Commissioner
Flury.
Vice-Mayor Castro suggested waiting for the one Code before making any more changes to the
ordinance. She noted the Mellgren Planning Group is conducting public meetings and
workshops to get public input on the changes/additions to the one Code currently being created.
Mayor Jones re-opened the meeting to the public.
Gilly Miller, 136 SE 2nd Court, said he put his boat and trailer in front of his house to see if
anyone noticed. He said the bushes in front of his house are ten feet high, which is a violation of
code. Mr. Miller questioned why the City was not enforcing the "four feet bush height"
ordinance.
A resident at 711 NW 8th Avenue, Melaleuca Gardens, commented on the size of his boats and
the five feet setback.
Bruce Hannover, 617 NE 2"d Place, said he is aware of the five feet setback. He recommended
eliminating the perpendicular requirement which would help the residents of Melaleuca Gardens.
Mr. Hannover suggested that Code staff work in the evening hours because that is the time when
the people park on the sidewalks.
Sue A. Ross, 4406 SW 35`h Avenue, does not want any restrictions. She noted the perpendicular
requirement also affects her property.

Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday,June 24,2008—7:00 p.m.
Annette Hibbitts, 26 SW llth Street, noted that several years ago the ordinance only allowed
boats as long as 25 feet, and Commissioner Bertino suggested allowing boats up to 29 feet.
Dennis Delong, 326 NE 1" Court, noted the ordinance restricts his constitutional rights. He
asked the Commission to review and reconsider the wording of the ordinance.
Jim Hurst, 222 SE 1st Street, noted he was upset by the flyer he received, but the Commission
has clarified most of the items. He said people have the right to have boats in this City because
this is a maritime community. Mr. Hurst talked about the speed humps on SE I" Street and
indicated code enforcement is badly needed in that area. He complained about the dumpster at
Winn Dixie and asked the Commission to support the citizens with their requests.
Teddy Bohanan, 302 SW 15th Street, complimented the City on the CRA Visioning Session. She
noted the Commission promotes the marine industry and boating.
Wretch Finley, 118 NE 2"a Place, noted that forcing the people to put their boats in storage
would only add another financial burden on them.
Seeing as there was no one else to speak in favor or opposition, Mayor Jones closed the Public
Hearing.
Commissioner Anton made a substitute motion to table the ordinance until a workshop is held
and people decide what they want; seconded by Commissioner Bertino.
Commissioner Bertino and Commissioner Flury rescinded their first motion.

10.4 Vice-Mayor Castro
Vice-Mayor Castro thanked Teddy Bohanan for bringing the newspaper article about foreclosed
homes to the attention of the City Attorney. She thought we should put some pressure on the
banks to clean the properties.
Vice-Mayor Castro indicated the City should do a press release on the recent activity in the CRA
district. She suggested CRA Director Earle prepare the article and have it published through the
City Manager's office.
Vice-Mayor Castro said she received complaints regarding cars parking at the 109 Park parcel.
She noted people visiting Grandpa's Restaurant had their cars towed when they parked there.
City Attorney Ansbro noted that the Jean Cook property is under contract with Mac's Towing.
He indicated that Public Services would remove the old signs from the property.
Commissioner Anton suggested that the City approach Jean Cook to see if she would be
agreeable to let people park on the grass, which is next to her paved parking area. He also
thought the City should delineate the City's property to avoid future problems.
It was the consensus of the Commission to direct City Manager Pato to contact Jean Cook.
City Attorney Ansbro pointed out that the City would be responsible if anyone was injured on
the property. He suggested that if Grandpa's Bakery and Restaurant wants to use our lot for
parking, they should include the City as an additional insured to avoid any future liability issues.
Vice-Mayor Castro noted that Mayor Jones would be "arrested" after tonight's meting for the
American Cancer Society Jail and Bail.
Vice-Mayor Castro asked if anyone wanted to serve as the City's Alternate representative on the
Metropolitan Planning Organization(MPO).
It was the consensus of the Commission for Vice-Mayor Castro to continue serving as the
representative on the MPO.

confirmed that the sign is located on Jean Cook's property. Mr. McElyea noted that legally
vehicles are not allowed to park on grass. He indicated that Grandpa's needs to be checked for
the number of parking spaces for their business. Mr. McElyea commented that the City broke
the sidewalk next to his business when they installed the sewer. He commented on a pole sign
that he has been asked to remove, and a French drain that has not been repaired, in spite of
several calls. Mr. McElyea indicated the City is picking on him. He also complained about the
street closure on 13t° Street, where he has two businesses.
11. Discussion and Possible Action
11.1 City of Dania Beach Lease Agreement with Allegria Entertainment, Inc. d/b/a
Beachwatch—City Attorney Ansbro
City Attorney Ansbro introduced Rich Stone to the Commission.
Richard Stone, attorney for Beachwatch, noted that they run the Pier Restaurant and Bait Shop.
He said the pier admission fees have not been increased since 1985, and requested the
Commission consider increasing the fees. Attorney Stone also indicated the revenues for the
Bait Shop do not cover the cost of the salaries for the workers and requested an increase in the
split of the revenue from the Bait Shop to 1/3 for the City and 2/3 for the operator. He further
addressed the amount of property taxes paid by the tenants, which are more than they had
originally anticipated. He said the lease was signed with an understanding that the restaurant
would be two stories and would generate more income. The property taxes were $25,000 for the
first year, and the County will not adjust the value because they are based on actual construction
costs. Attorney Stone requested a reduction of $2,000 per month for the base rent and a
reduction of the percentage amount. He noted that his clients have worked diligently and have
received a lot of compliments. Attorney Stone asked the Commission for consideration of his
clients' requests.
Commissioner Flury commented the pier rates should be raised. She suggested $2.00 for
spectators who are mainly tourists, but opposed the fishing fee increase which would impact
residents and their families.
Minutes of Regular Meeting 13
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday,June 24,2008—7:00 p.m.
Commissioner Anton agreed to raise the fee for spectators, but not the fishing fee. He was
opposed to reducing the taxes to be paid on the property, because this was originally negotiated
in the lease agreement.
Attorney Stone indicated that they initially requested to not be responsible for the taxes, but his
clients did finally agree to pay them when they signed the agreement.
Commissioner Bertino noted fishing and visiting the pier was a cheap source of entertainment for
working class families. He was concerned with the cost to residents to fish on the pier.
Commissioner Bertino asked if an adult who was with children and not fishing could pay a
reduced rate.
Commissioner Flury is concerned with keeping the pier clean. She suggested increasing the fee
to $2.00 and work out a family pass for the parents with children.
Vice-Mayor Castro pointed out that kids under the age of six are admitted free of charge. She
suggested the City consider operating the pier and let the tenants operate the restaurant. Vice-
Mayor Castro indicated residents of the City should receive a discount.
Mayor Jones was not opposed to raising the cost for the spectators.
Commissioner Flury motioned to raise the spectator fee to $2.00, and ask them to consider
a family pass for children under the age of 12; seconded by Commissioner Bertino.
The Commission was generally against changing the 50/50 split of the pier revenue.
11.2 Discussion of the cities of Hollywood and Hallandale Beach applying for state and
federal grants to start a transit system—Vice-Mayor Castro
Vice-Mayor Castro would like the City Manager to reach out to the Cities of Hallandale Beach
and Hollywood to discuss working together to negotiate better agreements on issues of mutual
concern, which would be beneficial to all of us. She noted the Town of Davie could also be
included.
Mayor Jones noted the Commission will have a joint meeting with the City of Hollywood to
discuss some of these issues on Thursday, October 23, 2008 at Dania Beach City Hall. He
suggested the City Manager contact the City of Hallandale Beach to attend the meeting as well.
Commissioner Flury questioned if it would be better to have a separate meeting with the City of
Hallandale Beach.
Vice-Mayor Castro suggested staff meet first to create a plan to present to the Commission prior
to the meeting with Hollywood and Hallandale Beach.
It was the consensus of the Commission to direct City Manager Palo to talk to the referenced
cities and develop a plan.
Minutes of Regular Meeting 14
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday,June 24,2008—7:00 p.m.
City Manager Pato noted he would provide the Commission with a copy of the draft agenda with
the City of Hollywood.
11.3 Discussion of Enterprise Zone Expansion—Assistant City Manager Donnelly
Colin Donnelly, Assistant City Manager, noted the Enterprise Zone Advisory Board discussed
extending the boundaries of the Enterprise Zone. He clarified that this Board is composed by the
cities of Fort Lauderdale, Lauderhill, Dania Beach and Unincorporated Broward County. It was
suggested that land masses that will never be developed be removed, enabling other properties to
be included in the Zone. Assistant City Manager Donnelly noted the properties would need to
meet the criteria, and asked the Commission for their input.
Commissioner Bertino suggested expanding as much as possible.
Commissioner Anton suggested all commercial corridors should be included, such as Marina
Mile, Ravenswood Road, Bryan Road and Griffin Road.
It was the consensus of the Commission to move forward with the expansion of the Enterprise
Zone.
12. Appointments
Vice-Mayor Castro appointed Chris Aruti to the Marine Advisory Board.
Commissioner Anton motioned to approve the Board appointment; seconded by Vice-
Mayor Castro. The motion carried unanimously.

RE: Approval of Resolution to Fund Replacement of NW 71h Ave Water Main
Introduction and Background
There are several old water mains that still need to be replaced throughout the City. An existing 6-
inch water main located on NW 711, Avenue is in poor condition. Residents have been complaining of
rusty water for some time. The City's consultant has completed the design for replacement of the
water main with an 8-inch main. To reduce the funding approval process and expedite the
installation, the City Commission recommended using City funds instead of appling for SRF. To
expedite the project further the City determined that if the installation is done in-house, we can
eliminate the advertisement and bidding process and gain another 3 months. Since the work will be
done in-house we need to purchase the materials. To fund the purchase of the materials, Staff has
recommended the transfer of$90,000.00 to the Water Distribution Budget from Water Fund retained
earnings. The materials will be purchased through Co-op Contracts.
Recommendations
It is recommended that the City Commission approve a resolution to transfer funds, $90,000.00 from
Water Fund retained earnings to the Water Distribution Budget required to fund the purchase of the
materials and authorize the City Manager to execute the documents.

RE: Approval of 50/50 Sidewalk Funding
Introduction and Background
The City has a 50/50 sidewalk program available to residents. The City and residents
split the cost equally for the sidewalk repair/replacement. As a result of continued
increased Code Enforcement and the City of Dania Beach popular 50/50 sidewalk
program we currently have a backlog from Code Enforcement actions of $30,000 -
$40,000 with more in the works; extra funding in the amount of $70,000 is being
requested. Staff recommends using existing contract with Straightline Engineering
Services under Southeast Florida Government Cooperative Group Bid #05-06-012 to
provide these services.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Commission approve a resolution for the work in the
amount of$70,000.00, and authorize the City Manager to execute the documents.

RE: Harbour Towne Marina Plat No. 2,FPL Easement
Dear Mr. Ansbro,
As you know, our firm represents Harbour Towne Associates on matters related to the
' Site Plan and Plat approval for Harbour Towne Marina. Please recall that the Harbour Towne
Plat and Site Plan were approved by the Dania Beach City Commission in 2007. We have been
processing the Harbour Towne Marina Plat No. 2 over the past year, and realized that an existing
Florida Power and Light("FPL")easement interferes with proposed water and sewer lines and
the new boat storage building.
Thanks for speaking with me about the process for relocating the FPL easement and for
reviewing the proposed new easement. We also met with Dominic Orlando, and he has no
objection to the relocated easement. Accordingly, we request that the City of Dania Beach
j process a Resolution to authorize relocation of the FPL Easement. Please schedule this item for
an upcoming City Commission meeting and contact me with any questions or for additional
j information.
I
Thank you again for your attention and consideration in this regard.

RE: Proposed Amendment to Pier Restaurant Lease (Lease Between City and Beach
Watch, Inc.)
Attached is a proposed Lease amendment which will revise the definition of the term
"Lease Year". This will serve as the basis for the annual percentage rental calculations (i.e.,
the tenant is to pay eight (8) percent of the gross revenue derived from the premises or the
"Base Rent" of $96,000.00 per year, whichever is greater). The Amendment will reflect
actual conditions, since restaurant operations did not actually begin until the restaurant opened
in January, 2007. The Finance Department agrees that the Amendment is in both parties' best
interest.
Adoption of an Ordinance authorizing execution of the Lease Amendment is
recommended.

Phil Reeves, Building Official
FROM: Thomas J. Ansbro, City Attorney
DATE: July 14, 2008
RE: Proposed "Storm Shutters" Ordinance
Nick Lupo, Code Compliance Manager, has suggested that storm shutter regulations be
re-visited and brought to the City Commission for consideration.
The ordinance as presented varies from the version presented to the City Commission
some time ago, which was not enacted. The new ordinance is consistent with others adopted by
a number of other Broward County cities. The new ordinance:
1) prohibits keeping storm shutters in a closed position for a period of time exceeding
thirty (30) days, unless
a) at least two (2) means of ingress and egress are provided (e.g., doors,
windows); or
b) a hurricane watch or warning is issued and occurs during the thirty day
period (after the notice is lifted, the thirty (30) day "clock" starts again); or
c) hurricane conditions are expected within thirty-six (36) hours; or
d) the structure is residential but no one is in residence for a period exceeding
thirty (30) days (in such case, notice of the vacancy is to be provided to the Code Enforcement
Division).
2) From December 1 to May 31, storm shutters cannot be kept in a closed position
unless a storm occurs outside of the hurricane season.
As revised the ordinance addresses concerns made by several residents when the matter
was last brought to the City Commission, in that people were concerned with having to remove
and replace shutters if several storms occurred during the season but were more than thirty
(30) days apart.
This is ready for City Commission consideration (adoption on first reading).

TO: Ivan Pato, City Manager
THRU: Corinne Lajoie, AICP, Principal Planner Now
FROM: Leigh R. Kerr, AICP VU
RE: City of Dania Beach Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR)
Comprehensive Plan Amendments
Based upon the Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR), which was approved by
the Florida Department of Community Affairs (FDCA) in the Spring of 2007, the
City of Dania Beach is committed to provide amendments to its comprehensive
plan which were identified in the EAR process. The below and the attached
comprise the proposed EAR amendments for the City's comprehensive plan.
A. Future Land Use Element (FLUE)
1. Population projections were updated based upon the current
estimates provided by the Broward County Planning Services
Division. These are outlined on page 3 of the FLUE.
2. New Objective XXIV was added, which identifies the intensity
standards for non-residential uses and the Local Activity Center
(LAC) of the Dania Beach Comprehensive Plan. These are
identified in terms of building coverage for the traditional non-
residential uses and for the LAC in terms of specific permitted uses
allowed within that land use designation.
2806-M-P.Z.Boord

from the 2000 Census that was supplied within the EAR to provide
more current information as it regards this area of the
comprehensive plan.

more ownership opportunities at all income levels.
3. Various text and tables in the Housing Element were updated with
2000 census data which is the most recent data available.
C. Transportation Element
1 . Three objectives within the Transportation Element have been
modified to provide better measurable objectives.
D. Coastal Element
1. New policies 3.3 and 3.4 have been added at page 11 and speak
to the assessment of beaches and dunes within the City.
2. New policy 4.3 has been added at page 12.
Revisions made to the City's Comprehensive Plan elements are provided as
attachments identified below:
Attachment 1 — Future Land Use Element

Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
I. 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 6.25 square
miles (4,500 acres) and extends approximately 4 miles east to west
and 3 miles north to south. The City includes a portion of
oceanfront in the east disconnected from the balance of the City.
Dania Beach is one of 29 incorporated municipalities within Broward
County. Dania Beach is situated south of Fort Lauderdale, north of
Hollywood, and east of Unincorporated Broward County. 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, Griffin 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 80% of the City is in a built condition which leaves
about 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 1997 and Table II provides the existing land uses in
further detail by flexibility zone. The following existing land use key
identes each of the various uses on Tables I and II. The existing
land use map depicts the location of the land uses.

The following will further analyze the different characteristics of the
existing land uses within the community:
A. Residential Development
Residential uses represent approximately 1,312 acres or 35% of
the existing community. Of this amount there is 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 462 acres or
about 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
584 acres or about 15% of the City. Most of the industrial
activities occur in the western portions of the City along I-95 and
State Road 84, and in eastern portions of the City along the
Dania Cut-off canal and Port Everglades.
D. Recreation/Conservation
The City contains 422 acres of recreational facilities which
represent 12% of the City. Also, private clubhouses 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.
Page 2
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
E. Community Facilities
There are a substantial number of community facilities within the
community consisting of almost 114 acres or 3% of the City.
These include a variety of public school facilities including Collins
and Dania Beach Elementary 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.

Formatted:Font:8 pt
Page 3
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
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 streets administered and
maintained by the City of Dania Beach.
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. The City has entered into a contract with Reuter,
Inc. to provide solid waste disposal. 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
Page 4
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
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 drainage system is
managed by 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.
S. Potable Water
At the present time the water treatment plant has a design
capacity of 3.0 million gallons per day ("mgd") with present
operating level 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.
6. Natural Groundwater Aquifer Recharge
Broward County has embarked upon a wellfield Protection
program that prohibits and/or regulates hazardous toxic
substances within areas that may impact public utility water
supply wellfields. The City of Dania Beach has connected to
the County's regional raw water system which 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 District's plans and policies.
B. Vacant Analysis
This segment of the report analyzes the character and
magnitude of the existing vacant or undeveloped land to
Page 5
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
determine suitability for use.
1. Vacant Inventory
Table III provides an inventory of the vacant land within the
community as of January 1997 by land use. As noted
previously in the Comprehensive Plan, the City contains
approximately 700 acres of vacant land or about 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 residential,
commercial, community facility and utility categories.
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. 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. Interstate 95
splits this flexibility zone. 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 from Estate Residential up to
High Residential. Flexibility zone 58 contains a significant
commercial/industrial base along S.R. 84 and west of the
airport.
2. Physiography, Drainage and Minerals
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 affecting 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.
Page 6
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
3. Soils and Wetlands
Soils are an important factor which affects 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 that
require permitting through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,
Florida Department of Environmental Protection, and the
Broward County Department of Planning and Environmental
Protection prior to an issuance of any development permit.
Many of these wetlands have been substantially impacted
over time and are experiencing a great deal of stress.
The 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
Page 7
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
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.
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.
S. Lakes, Beaches and Shores
All the beachfront 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 5th
Avenue 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
Page 8
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
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
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 may be permitted. The community reserves the
right to further restrict all uses through its zoning ordinances.
The permitted uses outlined in this section enumerate the
uses that may be allowed by the City's Zoning Ordinances.
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:
• 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
Page 9
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
dwelling unit.
• 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.
• Parks, golf courses and other outdoor recreational
facilities, and recreational, civic, or other cultural
buildings ancillary to primary outdoor recreational use
of the site.
• Community facilities designed to serve the City's
residential area such as schools, day care centers,
churches, nursing homes, governmental administration,
police and fire protection facilities, libraries and civic
centers.
• Utilities, excluding the following uses: water and
wastewater treatment plants, pumping stations, power
plant substations and transmission facilities, solid waste
disposal and transfer stations, and hazardous waste
(medical and similar uses) processing, transfer, or
disposal facilities.
• Communication facilities, if deemed appropriate by the
local jurisdiction.
• Penal, correctional, and re-entry facilities are
prohibited.
• Agriculture.
• 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 neighborhood
retail sales of merchandise or services.
Page 10
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
No added contiguous area used for offices and/or
neighborhood retail sales of merchandise or services
may exceed ten (10) acres. For the purpose of this
provision, contiguous is defined as: attached; located
within 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
Page 11
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
a. Density Standards Residential areas are shown
on the Future Land Use Map according to eight
(8) ranges of density:
• 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.
• 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.
Page 12
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
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 mean 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.
Any existing live-aboard vessels which conformed to
the regulations in effect when such vessels were
included within the definition of "dwelling unit' that
become nonconforming by the enactment of Broward
County Land Use Plan Text Amendment PCT 98-5
shall be removed or discontinued as a dwelling unit
within five (5) years of the effective date of Broward
County Land Use Plan Text Amendment 98-5.
(Effective date: September 7, 1998).
Calculations of acreage covered by different land use
categories on the Future Broward County land Use
Plan Map (Series) will necessarily be approximate,
due to the scale of the map. Where edges of land
use categories are close to property lines, streets,
transmission lines or other existing lines, edges
should be construed to follow those lines. A lake or
canal should be construed as having been assigned
the same land use category as that assigned to
adjacent unsubmerged land. The Intracoastal
Waterway, and the rivers and canals of the primary
drainage system as identified within this plan shall
not, however, be construed as having credit towards
residential density.
c. Arrangement of Dwelling Units
Page 13
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
Any arrangement of dwelling units on a parcel of
land designated for residential use is compatible with
the Dania Beach Land Use Plan as is the maximum
number of dwelling units permitted within the parcel
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
Page 14
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
densities.
Rearrangement of residential densities utilizing
flexibility units shall be administered within
"flexibility zones."
The boundaries of and rules governing "flexibility
zones" and rearrangement of residential densities
therein will be subject to the provisions of Policy
1.02.01 and Policy 13.01.10 of the Broward County
Land Use Plan and "Administrative Rules Document:
Broward County Land Use Plan."
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).
f. 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).
Allocation of reserve units will be administered within
"flexibility zones" and not require amendment of the
land use plan. The boundaries of and rules governing
"flexibility zones" and allocation of reserve units
therein will be subject to the provisions of Policy
1.02.02 and Policy 13.01.10 of the Broward County
Land Use Plan and the "Administrative Rules
Document: Broward County Land Use Plan."
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
land use plan map. However, the land use plan, the
Page 15
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
zoning, and the applicable land development
regulations shall not permit any density higher than
fifty (50) dwelling units per gross acre.
g. Commercial Use
The areas designated for commercial use on the
Future Land Use Plan Map provide land area for
business, office, retail, service and other commercial
enterprises which support the resident and tourist
populations of Dania Beach.
Uses permitted in areas designated commercial are
as follows:
• Retail uses.
• Office and business uses.
• Wholesale, storage, light fabricating, and
warehouse uses, if deemed appropriate by the
local jurisdiction.
• Hotels, motels, and similar lodging. Hotels,
motels, and similar lodging in the Coastal High
Hazard Area are permitted at a density
limitation of fifty (50) units per acre.
• Recreation and open space, cemeteries, and
commercial recreation uses.
• Community facilities and utilities (excluding
landfills), if deemed appropriate by the local
jurisdiction.
• Penal, correctional, and re-entry facilities are
prohibited.
• Special Residential Facility Category (2)
development as defined in the Special
Residential Facilities Permitted Uses subsection
subject to the allocation of two (2) reserve or
flexibility units in accordance with the Special
Residential Facility provisions and policies for
Page 16
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
the application of these units.
• Special Residential Facility Category (3)
development as defined in the Special
Residential Facilities Permitted Uses subsection
subject to the allocation of reserve units or
flexibility units in accordance with the Special
Residential Facility provisions and policies for
the application of these units; each flexibility
or reserve unit shall permit two (2) sleeping

total gross acreage of the employment
center designated parcel, whichever is
greater, and that the entire mixed use
development be governed by specific zoning
regulations that establish criteria to ensure
proper integration and compatibility of land
uses with and surrounding the
development.

as the location of these uses do not preclude or
adversely affect the future use of surrounding
areas for employment center use. Said uses re
subject to the review and approval requirements
of Policy 13.01.10 of the Broward County Land
Use Plan.
m.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

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.
No principal building may be permitted, nor may
any land use which impedes the future
construction for an expressway be allowed.
Proposed expressways shall have an underlying
residential land use designation unless bordered
on both sides by non-residential land use
designations. 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 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
Page 30
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
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.
p. 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.
Uses permitted in areas designated utilities are as
follows:
• Utilities, excluding landfills.
• Other uses determined to be ancillary to the
primary uses described in above.
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.
q. Communication Facilities
Communication facilities such as television and radio
stations and relay structures and telephone facilities
are not specifically designated on the Future Land

Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
may be permitted in areas designated under the
following categories:
• Residential, if deemed appropriate by the local
jurisdiction.
• Commercial.
• Industrial.
• Office Park.
• Employment Center
r. 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, which 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:
Broward County does not encourage local
governments to locate special residential facilities in
commercial, office park or community facilities
areas. Special residential facilities should be
Page 32
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
integrated into residential neighborhoods. However,
due to the need to locate special residential 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.
Page 33
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
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;
• 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;
• 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.
s. Conservation Use:
Conservation areas are designated on the Future
Land Use Plan Map to protect natural reservations.
1. Structures such as dikes, berms, levees, canals,
ditches, locks, gates, pumping stations,
monitoring facilities used for flood control,
drainage, water quality preservation/
enhancement, environmental protection,
mosquito control, fire control and the storage and
conservation of water.
2. Active outdoor recreation uses such as fishing and
Page 34
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
boating, pursuant to State and Federal
regulations.
3. Boat ramps and docks.
4. Camping facilities, if determined to be appropriate
by the local jurisdiction.
5. Passive outdoor recreational uses such as wildlife
sanctuaries and feeding stations, nature centers
and trails, outdoor research stations and
walkways.
Natural Reservations
Natural Reservations are designated for conservation
use on the Future Land Use Plan Map (Series) and
include public lands which are conservation areas
operated by contractual agreement with or managed
by a federal, state, regional, local government or
non-profit agencies.
Secret Woods Nature Center is a Natural Reservation
designated for conservation use on the Future Land
Use Plan Map (Series).
Those uses permitted in Natural Reservation areas
designated conservation are as follows:
1. Passive outdoor recreational uses such as wildlife
sanctuaries and feeding stations, nature centers
and trails, outdoor research stations and
walkways.
2. Uses which do not impair the natural environment
or disturb the natural ecosystem of the area and
which are not in conflict with any applicable
contractual agreement or management policies of
the fede state, regional, county, municipal, or
non-profit agency which manages the Natural
Reservation.
While the City of Dania Beach historically was a
farming community, the expansion in
Page 35
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
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 parks 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.
t. Local Activity Center Use:
The intent of the Local Activity Center land use
designation is to support a balanced mix of land uses
characterized by compactness, pedestrian friendly
design, neighborhood-scale and framed by
architecture and landscape design appropriate to
local history and ecology.
Development patterns within Local Activity Centers
shall generally reflect planning and design principles
such as walkable neighborhoods oriented around the
five-minute walk, primary orientation toward public
transit systems, a centrally located community-
serving land use or land uses and greater integration
of housing, employment, shopping and recreation at
the neighborhood level.
For an area to qualify as a Local Activity Center, the
following criteria must be met:
1. A Local Activity Center shall be a specific
geographic area not exceeding 160 gross
contiguous acres, unless located within an
approved Chapter 163, Florida Statutes,
Redevelopment Area. At such time as 75% of the
Page 36
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
originally designated Local Activity Center is
developed/redeveloped an expansion to a subject
Local Activity Center up to 100% may be
proposed.
2. The density and intensity of land uses permitted
within a proposed Local Activity Center shall be
specified in the Dania Beach Land Use Element.
3. Uses proposed within a Local Activity Center shall
include residential uses and park land and/or
open space. One or more other uses such as
commercial, civic, institutional, or employment-
based activity shall also be included within a Local
Activity Center.
4. Park land must reflect no net loss of acreage of
existing and designated parks within the proposed
Local Activity Center. Park and open spaces land
may include squares, greenbelts, greenways and
playgrounds; ill-defined residual areas such as
buffers, and berms, for purposes of this criteria,
are not considered park land or open space.
5. To address proposed residential density above
what is yielded by the present land use
designations, the City shall first utilize at least
75% of available "flexibility units" and "reserve
units" from the flexibility zone where the Local
Activity Center is located, before an increase in
density is requested via the land use plan
amendment process. A proposed Local Activity
Center located within an approved Chapter 163,
Florida Statutes, Redevelopment Area is exempt
from this criteria.
6. A proposed Local Activity Center must have a
geographic configuration of appropriate depth end
frontage to support the location of uses in a
manner oriented around the five-minute (i.e.
quarter-mile) walk. Multiple nodes of activity
oriented around the five-minute (i.e. quarter-
mile) walk may be included within one Local
Activity Center.
Page 37
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
7. Seventy-five percent (75%) of the land within a
Local Activity Center must be located within a
quarter-mile of mass transit or multi-modal
facilities or are included within an adopted plan to
be located within a quarter-mile of mass transit or
multi-modal facilities upon buildout of the Local
Activity Center. Convenient access shall be
provided to mass transit, community shuttle or
multi-modal facilities where such facilities are in
place or planned to be in place at the time the
Local Activity Center is proposed. Where such
facilities are not in place or planned to be in place
at the time of proposal, the City shall provide
design standards in the Land Use Element for a
Local Activity Center that ensure that the primary
priority is a safe, comfortable and attractive
pedestrian environment that will allow for
convenient interconnection to transit, will reduce
the number of automobile trips internally and will
ultimately support an integrated multi-modal
transportation system.
8. A proposed Local Activity Center shall
demonstrate consistency with the goals,
objectives and policies and other requirements of
the Land Use Element.
9. An interlocal agreement between the City and
Broward County shall be executed no later than
six months from the effective date of the adoption
of a Local Activity Center which provides that
monitoring of development activity and
enforcement of permitted land use densities and
intensifies shall be the responsibility of the City.
The following area has been designated a Local
Activity Center within the Dania Beach Land Use
Plan:
Downtown Local Activity Center - Dania Beach
Page 38
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
Community Redevelopment Area
General That area generally bound by
Location: Northeast 2nd Street on the
north, the eastern City limits
on the east, Southeast 2nd
Street on the south and the
FEC railroad on the west.
Land Uses: Maximum Intensity
Residential: 2,165 high-rise dwelling units
200 garden apartments
100 town homes
Commercial 500,000 square feet
Hotel 640 rooms
Community 4.7 acres
Facilities
Conservation 0.6 acre
D. Land Needs
To support the Year 2005 projections of approximately 10,600
units and Year 2010 projections of approximately 11,600 units
within the community, the associated land need requirements
are anticipated to be approximately 36 and 145 acres,
respectively. This is established utilizing the average new starts
for housing within the community of about 90 per year and
recognizes the mix of housing from the period of 1988 to 1997
which reflects a substantial number of multi-family permits
(51%) against single family permit issuance of about 38%.
E. Redevelopment
The City of Dania Beach includes Community Development Block
Grant target areas as identified in the Broward County
Redevelopment Plan. The Chapter 163 (Florida Statutes)
Community 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
Page 39
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
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 has significant opportunities
for redevelopment within the other areas of the community.
Many of these have been identified in a recent study prepared by
the City of Dania Beach. These redevelopment activities are
consistent with the Urban Infill 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 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 cannot 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. Heavy industrial uses will also include tractor trailer
truck operations and other heavy traffic generator type uses.
Hotel. A Building or part thereof, in which rental sleeping rooms
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
Page 40
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
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. Two hotel rooms are equivalent to one
residential unit.
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 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, 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 recreational 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.
Page 41
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
Motel. A building, or series of buildings, being attached, semi-
detached, or detached, in which rental sleeping rooms 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 rooms, 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.
Two motel sleeping rooms are equivalent to one residential unit.
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 social 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.
Solid waste facilities. The term "solid waste facilities" means
structures or systems designed for the storage, 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
Page 42
Future Land Use Element City of Dania Beach
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.

Housing Element City of Dania Beach
I. 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 for all the City's
residents including moderate, low and very low income households
as well as those who require group homes, foster care and other
special housing needs. 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.
II.DATA REQUIREMENTS - 93-5.010(1)
The information developed in this section of the Housing Element is
primarily obtained from the United States Census - 1990, and
supplemented by data prepared by the City of Dania Beach and
Broward County.
A. Housing Inventory__ DeWed: -1990
Table I provides an outline of the Housing Inventory for the City
of Dania Beach as of 200a The information is Provided by type Deleted: 1995
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).
Page 3

4. Mobile Homes
Mobile housing for permanent residential habitation. The
housing inventory indicates as of 2000_ there were - Deleted: 1995
approximately 10,875_dwelling_units within the City_of Dania t Deleted:9,7so
Beach. -
Single family dwellings represent 3-ro or approximately 3,4U_ . Deleted:8
dwelling units, and multi-family 5$Po or ,6, 771 dwelling units. Deleted:690
There are also approximately 1,092. _mobile homes situated Deleted: i

within the community primarily located in the northern reaches Deleted:s,000
of the City. Deleted;60
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 Pine (9) separate_age_categories beginning Deleted:seve
from 1939 and running through NRO. Broward Coun_ty_totals_ Deleted:?
are also provided. As reflected on Table II 90% of the housing Deleted: 198
has been built since 1950 and approximately 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 45% of the housing was built by 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 9% of Dania Beach
housing was built before 1950 while only 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 1 OOO,000._,The 200.0 census indicates a Deieted:2
unit median value of $113,700 for Dania Beach and $128,600J Deleted'^
for. Broward_County. Table III indicates that over 3355% of the Deleted:is provided and also a
---- - -------- - - - - -- - -housing within the community is valued in the $40 -100,000 comparison with
rice range with the largest percentage 1% of the housin Deleted:56
P 9 9 P 9 (�---) 9 Deleted:4
Page 4
Housing Element City of Dania Beach
in the 100 - $,200,00.0 _ price range. This _ reflects a - Deeleted:6
moderately priced housing market which provides a full range Deleted: 1
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 Deleted:
areas of the County and being in the eastern 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,2000_census. It is provided by_city total Dekted: 199
and Broward County total. The figures are provided in nine
categories ranging from less than $�00 - $.1500 per month, Deleted:8
Table IV indicates that 60% of the rents are less than $750. Deleted:4
The county-wide average shows that 52% of the e_ rents m_ Deleted: ; median rent city-wide;
excess of $400 per month. Dania Beach has 39% over 750. and Broward County
The median rent in the City of Dania Beach is $679 per month Deleted°2
which is approximately $7a less than the County_average_ of Deleted: 3
757 per month for median gross rents. Deleted:83
- - Deleted:65
4. Monthly Mortgage Cost Deleted:40
Deleted:484
Table V outlines monthly mortgage cost city-wide and within I Deleted:91
Broward County. Monthly mortgage costs range from under Deleted:575
$200 to over $3 000 per month plus a median cost is also Deleted: 1
provided. Table V reflects that approximately 4550% of the Deleted:6
monthly mortgage cost is in the $200 - $900 _per month t Deleted:3
ran9e, The median cost for the City of Dania Beach is $1,039, Deleted;6
a month which is lower than the Broward County median of Deleted: with approximately
_ Z46 per month. _ _ _ 30%of the mortgage rates
ranging from $300-$600 per
month
S. Lacking Facilities Deleted:754
Table VI reflects the number of units within the City which Deleted:856
lack complete plumbing, kitchens or central heating. Table VI

an active program to eliminate substandard housing. Deleted:'
6. Rent to Income Ratio
Rent to income ratio is the relationship of the percentage of a
household's 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 familyts income. Deleted:'
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 1990 U.S. Census, approximately 943 of the
City�s 2,564 units which were renter occupied paid more than
35% of their income for rent. This represents approximately
37% of the rental families within the City. Within this
category 578 or approximately 23% have income less than
$10,000. The overall split of rental housing within the
community indicated 30% of the units were occupied with
families in the less than $10,000 income range. About 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.
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 26 substandard housing unit4 as of.2000. . Deleted:e
The City�s_Building Department implements a program to Deleted. 199
identify, and demolish substandard housing. Since 1990, the Deleted:'
Building Department has identified and was responsible for
demolition of at least 60 substandard units.,_ Deie<ed:Atthisbme, the
Building Department has
identified (6)six additional
C. Subsidized Renter Housing substandard units in the City
that are in need of demolition.
The City of Dania Beach has subsidized renter housing through
the Federal Government Section 8 program. 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 indicates there are ten
(10) mobile home parks representing 1,139 units within the City
(1998). Table XI identifies 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 (1980-1997)
Table XIII is an inventory of housing construction activities
within the City of Dania Beach from 1980 to 1997. The data
reflects a total increase of approximately 940 dwelling units
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.
III. ANALYSIS REQUIREMENTSz- 9.1-5.010(2) Deleted:-
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 households by type and size
which are needed to meet its future growth; special 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 DdeWd:'
Page 7
Housing Element City of Dania Beach
Comprehensive Plan. Table XIV provides the anticipated number
of dwelling units to be constructed in conformance with the
Cityts_ Land Use Element: _For_the_ period_ _1995 2000 an_ �iltld:'
anticipated additional 385 dwelling units is expected; end for the Deleted:-
period 2000,= 2005 an additional 450 dwelling units is expected; iweted:-
and for the period between 2005 and 2010 an additional 1,073
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
1997 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 90 units per year. The mix of those units are
anticipated to be weighted towards multi-family, as in a ten (10)
year period approximately 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 Census. The
projections of income range were prepared utilizing the Bureau
of Census 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 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 them is_no_ Deleted:ir
demand for same.
B. Land Requirements
The land requirements necessary for meeting the anticipated
additional dwelling units outlined previously is expected to be
approximate 26 acres single family and 10 acres multi-family for
the Year 2005. For the year 2010, an additional 105 acres of
single-family and 40 acres multi-family is anticipated. This blend
of densities will provide a variety of housing types available to
the future population of the community.
C. Private Sector Initiatives
The Private Sector is expected to continue to be the main
provider of housing for the future residents off 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 the 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
Page 9
Housing Element City of Dania Beach
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 community's 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.
An affordable housing needs analysis methodology to be used
for the Comprehensive Plan planning process statewide was
developed by the Shimberg Center. Attached as Table XVIII is
a projection based upon the Shimberg Study for very low, low
and moderate housing. It should be noted that the projected
population used in the Shimberg analysis exceeds the
projections developed by Broward County and used in other
sections of this document. The Shimberg analysis may
produce more accurate results when the population
projections are updated based on the 2000 Census. It is felt
that adequate supplies 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 are
available. The infrastructure in many cases is already in place
so the sites are readily available for development. In addition,
as stated in the Census, the City has in excess of 2,000 units
of subsidized renter housing. The City will continue to support
the creation of affordable housing in the City.
Housing data from the 2000 Census indicates that the total- Formatted:Indent:LeR: OJS"
number of dwelling units in the City is 10,847. Single Family
housing consists of 4,412 units in 2000 that represent
approximately 41 percent of the total housing stock. Multi-
family and mobile homes represent the balance of the units.

Housing Vacancy & Tenure. - For matted:Indent:Left: 0.25',
In 1990, approximately 75 percent of the total housing units First line: o.s"
are occupied and 25 percent are vacant. In 2000, 83 percent Formatted:indent:Herz: 0.75"
are occupied, meaning 17 percent are vacant. A trend of
lower vacancy rates is expected to continue. This is due to the
shrinking availability of new housing as the City becomes fully
developed and the conversion of seasonal housing units
occupied by older retirees to year-round residences affordable
for younger families. In 2000, of the 9,012 occupied housing
units in the City, 5,158 units, or 57 percent of the total, are
owner-occupied and 3,856 units, or 43 percent, are renter-
occupied.
Housing Value. - — Formatted:indent.Len: o.is-
Owner-occupied housing with values less than $100,000
represent 40 percent of owner-occupied housing. Housing
with a value of $100,000 to $199,999 represent 51 percent of
all housing, with 32 percent having values between $100,000
to $149,999. Less than 9 percent of all owner-occupied
housing has a value of $200,000 or more.
The median value of a home in the City is $14,900 lower than- Formatted:indent: Left: o.75°
the median value of a housing unit in the County, with the
City having a median value of $113,700 and the County
$128,600. The owner-occupied housing units in the Citv
valued between $30,000 and $99,999, account for 40 percent
of the total. For Broward County, 42.8 percent of all owner-
occupied housing units have values in the range $30,000 to
$99,999 and 53.1 percent owner-occupied housing units fall
in the range $60,000 to $149,999. Another 18.9 percent of
the units have values between 150,000 and $249,999. 35
percent of the owner occupied housing units in the City fall in
the $50,000 to $99,999 range, with 4 percent of the units in
the value range less than $50,000. The City has 25 percent of
housing units in the $150,000 to $299,999 value range as
compared to th' County's 18.9 percent. These data show
housing values in the City are relatively low as compared to
the County, with minimal opportunities for those with the
financial ability to purchase higher quality housing.
Housing Choice Vouchers 4 Formatted:Indent.Left: 0.75"
The Dania Beach Housing Authority has authorized
approximately 499 Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers to
Page 11
Housing Element City of Dania Beach
provide rent subsidies in the City of Dania Beach. The total
number of vouchers maintained by Broward County Housing
Authority is approximately 4,000, This level of voucher use
equates to 13 % of the total number of renter-occupied units
in the City in 2000. Most subsidized units are located in the
central section of the City. Many units are located in
apartment complexes, especially larger or multi-story
complexes; however, a significant number of subsidized units
are duplexes and triplexes and there are some single-family
homes. The housing voucher system was designed to
eliminate public housing complexes and disseminate voucher
holders throughout the community. The goal of public housing
is to locate safe, affordable, quality residences for recipients.

income on housing.
The City recognizes the costs of housing have risen Formatted:Ment Left 0.75"
dramatically throughout Broward County since the 2000
Census. Successful communities provide for a variety of
housing types and costs that allow an individual to remain in
the community throughout various life phases and
circumstances The City more than adeguately provides for
lower and moderate income rental opportunities but does not
provide for adequate ownership opportunities at all income
levels.
The City's housing strategy is to continue the provision of Formatted:Indent:Left: 0.75",
affordable housing within the City for those of lower and Tabs: 0.58",Left,Leader:_
moderate incomes, while at the same time increasing housing
opportunities for those with higher incomes However, it is 'he
City's intent to change the method through which affordable
housing is delivered through the transition of existing renter-
occupied housing into owner-occupied housing For example
the City supports the conversion of apartment complexes
into owner occupied condominiums
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 4 9.00 less than the Deleted:7,000
Broward County average. Based upon 2000 census as Deleted: 199
outlined in Table III, there is also a greater percentage of
Page 13
Housing Element City of Dania Beach
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 2000 Dania Beach contained Deleted: 199S
approximately 1,092. mobile homes which is representative of _ - ceieted:67
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.
Table XII of the Housing Element identifies the historical and
archaeological sites in the City of Dania Beach as identified on
the Florida Master Site File.
F. Economic Solutions to Affordable Housing Requirements
The City of Dania Beach is also committed to reducing the
demand for affordable housing through programs designed to
raise the income levels of low income wage earners. There are a
number of programs sponsored by a variety of public and private
entities throughout Broward County that are available to the
residents of the City of Dania Beach. The City has created a job
training and social services program that is referred to as the
"Institute for Community Empowerment" that will target the
residents of Dania Beach.

Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
I. INTRODUCTION - HISTORICAL SUMMARY OF COUNTY-WIDE
MODELING ANALYSIS
This Transportation Element is one portion of the Comprehensive
Plan for the City of Dania Beach. It includes the planning for all
forms of transportation with emphasis upon public transportation.
Dania Beach is located within the geographic boundaries of the
Broward County Metropolitan Planning Organization. Because of this
location, the Transportation Element includes planning and analysis
in the following areas: traffic circulation; mass transit; ports;
airports; bicycle facilities; provisions for pedestrian movement and
provisions for hurricane evacuation. This Element is comprised of a
Historical Analysis of County-Wide Transportation Modeling (Section
I), Data and Analysis (Sections II and III), and Goals, Objectives
and Policies (Section IV).
The final chapter (Section V) is a listing of definitions intended to
assist the reader in understanding the technical terminology used
within this Element.
There is also, within this Element, a series of maps that support the
data and analysis. These maps will aid the reader in further
understanding the location, inter-relationships and complexities of
the various modes of transportation utilized within Dania Beach.
Another important aspect of this Element is that it be consistent
with the rest of the City's Comprehensive Plan Elements. Within
the other Elements of the Comprehensive Plan are policies that
relate to transportation. These policies have been identified and
repeated within this Element to ensure that issues raised elsewhere
in the Comprehensive Plan are addressed in a consistent manner.
The minimum requirements of what is to be contained within the
Transportation Element are outlined in Rule 9J-5 of the Florida
Administrative Code. These standards are very broad, yet provide
for very complex analysis. Addressing these requirements would be
financially burdensome upon Dania Beach, if the City was required
to under-go the required transportation modeling on its own.
As such, several cities have joined with the County in cooperatively
modeling the transportation system. It is the results of this joint
effort that forms the basis of the data and analysis within this
Transportation Element. The following is a discussion of how that
process was conducted and the results that were produced.
Page 1
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
A. Intergovernmental Coordination
On March 24 and July 29, 1997, the Department of Community
Affairs ("DCA") met with the Broward County League of Cities
Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), of which Dania Beach is a
member. The TAC noted that it was not practical for each of
Broward County's 29 municipalities to independently model
changes to land use intensities and that a coordinated county
wide effort would be preferred, with Broward County taking the
lead. The TAC further noted that the Evaluation and Appraisal
Report amendment schedule did not promote a coordinated
approach. As a consequence, the DCA, Broward County, and the
TAC negotiated an agreement that would allow the municipalities
to adopt their Transportation Element subsequent to Broward
County's adoption of its Transportation Element, thereby
allowing each municipality to consider the impacts an increase in
land use intensities would have on public transportation.
The TAC also established a Transportation Element
subcommittee to assist it in implementing Subsection
163.3177(6)(j) 8., FS. The following TAC subcommittee consists
of representatives from the following cities:
• City of Deerfield Beach
• City of Hallandale Beach
• City of Hollywood
• City of Cooper City
• Town of Davie
• City of Plantation
• Broward County Planning Council
• South Florida Regional Planning Council
B. Selecting the Land Use Pattern
Monday, August 25, 1997, the Transportation Element
subcommittee ("TE subcommittee") met to consider the selection
of alternative future land use scenarios for modeling purposes.
Seven (7) future land use scenarios were provided for their
consideration and members were encouraged to develop
additional scenarios. The seven (7) initial scenarios provided for
discussion included:
• Scenario 1: The 2015 long-range
Page 2
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
This approach would apply the future land uses as shown
on the Broward County Land Use Plan to the 2015 roadway
network in order to determine the impacts to the roadway
and public transportation network. This scenario is
equivalent to the "do nothing" approach and could serve as
the baseline for comparison with other scenarios.
• Scenario 2: The Florida Department of Transportation's
(FDOT) designated public transportation corridors
The FDOT designated and proposed for designation various
corridors as public transportation corridors. This approach
would raise densities and intensities along those corridors
designated or proposed for designation by the FDOT. The
criteria for FDOT designation is primarily whether a public
transit route has a ridership of 5,000 persons daily along a
corridor.
• Scenario 3• Municipal designated public transportation
corridors
This approach would require every municipality to review
their future land use maps and determine which corridors
are appropriate for higher densities and intensities.
• Scenario 4: Modified municipal designated public
transportation corridors This approach would require
every municipality to review their future land use maps
and determine which corridors are appropriate for higher
densities and intensities. This map would then be modified
by vote of the TAC, or some other entity, to assure
continuity of corridors.
• Scenario 5: Exclusive public transportation corridor mixed
use nodes
The only exclusive public transportation corridor is Tri-Rail.
This approach would increase densities and intensities
within a quarter mile radius of a Tri-Rail terminal.
• Scenario 6: Regional Activity Center
This "node" approach would increase densities and
intensities within Broward County's Regional Activity
Centers (RACs).
• Scenario 7: Criteria based corridors
Page 3
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
This approach would require that criteria be established
that would be used in identifying a public transportation
corridor (similar to the FDOT), and then applying these
criteria to see which corridors would be affected. Densities
and intensities along these corridors would be increased.
At the meeting, the subcommittee members present proposed
five additional scenarios for consideration. These scenarios
included:
• Scenario 8: Scenario 2 plus or minus Scenario 3
This approach would raise densities and intensities along
those corridors designated by the FDOT as modified by the
municipalities. A municipality could either add corridors to
those already designated by the FDOT or delete portions of
the designated FDOT corridors.
• Scenario 9: Scenarios 5 plus 6
This approach would increase densities and intensities
within a 1/4 mile radius of a Tri-Rail terminal and increase
densities and intensities within Broward County's RACs.
• Scenario 10: Broward County Thoroughfare Plan Buildout
Model
This approach would apply the future land uses as shown
on the Broward County Land Use Plan to the buildout
roadway network as shown on the Thoroughfare Plan and
determine the impacts to the roadway and public
transportation network. This scenario also is equivalent to
a "do nothing" approach and could serve as an alternative
baseline to Scenario 1.
• Scenario 11• Scenario 6 plus the proposed Davie RAC plus
the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, and
Port Everglades
This approach would increase densities and intensities
within Broward County's RACs, the proposed Town of
Davie RAC, the Airport and Port Everglades.
• Scenario 12: Scenario 5 plus Scenario 11
This would add the Tri-Rail corridor to Scenario 11.
After a brief presentation of each scenario and discussion among
the subcommittee members of the merits of each scenario,
Page 4
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
members were asked to select four alternatives from the list of
12.
The preferred or first alternative would receive 4 points, the
second alternative 3 points, the third alternative 2 points, and
the final alternative 1-point. The top three scenarios would be
taken to the TAC as the subcommittee's recommendation. The
top three scenarios each received a total of 20 points. These
three scenarios were:
• Scenario 10: Broward County Thoroughfare Plan Buildout
Model
This approach would apply the future land uses as shown
on the Broward County Land Use Plan to the buildout
roadway network as shown on the Thoroughfare Plan and
determine the impacts to the roadway and public
transportation network. This scenario also is equivalent to
a "do nothing" approach and could serve as an alternative
baseline to Scenario 1.
• Scenario 8: Scenario 2 plus or minus Scenario 3
This approach would raise densities and intensities along
those corridors designated by the FOOT as modified by the
municipalities. The FDOT public transportation roadway
corridors include three (3) previously designated roadway
corridors (i.e., Hollywood Boulevard/SR 820, Broward
Boulevard/SR 842, and University Drive/SR 817), three (3)
proposed roadway corridors (US 441/SR 7, Oakland Park
Boulevard/SR 816, and Sample Road/SR 834), and the Tri-
Rail Commuter Corridor. The subcommittee did not
recommend modifying these corridors, with the
consequence that Scenario 8 was equivalent to Scenario 2.
• Scenario 12: Scenario 5 (Tri-Rail) plus Scenario 11
This approach would increase densities and intensities
within Broward County's RACs, the proposed Town of
Davie RAC, the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International
Airport, Port Everglades, and within 1/4 mile radius of a Tri-
Rail terminal.
The TAC at their September 8, 1997 meeting, with one
exception, ratified the TE subcommittee's three (3) preferred
scenarios
Page 5
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
The Fort Lauderdale Beach RAC was excluded from Scenario 8
because increased densities in this area are inconsistent with
state planning law.
Subsequently, the Broward County Transportation Planning
Division, which serves as staff to the Metropolitan Planning
Organization ("MPO"), notified the TAC that Scenario 10 (i.e.,
Buildout) could not be used as a baseline because the travel
demand-forecasting model does not provide buildout public
transit data. Consequently, Scenario 1, the 2015 Long-Range
Plan, was chosen as the baseline to replace Scenario 10.
C. Land Use Intensities
The Transportation Element subcommittee met to consider the
appropriate land use intensities to be used for Scenario 8, the
corridor approach, and Scenario 11, the "node" approach.
A literature search was conducted to find the minimum land use
intensities that would support public transit for the corridor and
node approach.
The literature revealed that average residential densities of at
least seven dwelling units per acre (7 du/ac) within the service
area of a route are considered the minimum level to justify the
use of local bus routes with 30 minute headways, whereas
densities of 15 dwelling units per acre are needed for 10 minute
headways (See E. Kadesh, Encouraging Public Transportation
Through Effective Land Use Actions, Municipality of Seattle, U.S.
Department of Transportation, 1987; and B.S. Pushkarev and J.
M. Zupan, Public Transportation and Land Use Policy, Indiana
University Press, Bloomington, 1977).
Broward County Transit (BCt) operates many routes on 30-
minute headways and, as a consequence, a density of eight (8)
dwelling units per acre was chosen as the land use intensity for
the corridor approach. To implement this land use intensity,
densities were increased in all those traffic analysis zones (TAZs)
with 1/4 mile of the identified transit corridor.
The literature was sparse for minimum land use intensities in
nodes needed to support public transportation. The sole source
found was Robert Cervero's Transit Villages in the Twenty First
Century. Mr. Cervero found that minimum densities of 12
Page 6
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
dwelling units per acre (as well as 40,000 square feet of
commercial space and a regional attraction) were necessary to
support a transit village. Consequently, a density of 12 dwelling
units per acre was chosen as the land use intensity for the node
approach. To implement this land use intensity, densities were
increased in all those TAZs located within a RAC and within 1/4
mile of a Tri-Rail station. For Port Everglades and Fort
Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, nodes that have no
populations, residential densities were assumed to be zero. In
these nodes, only non-residential intensities were increased.
To address non-residential land use intensities, the
subcommittee recommended a housing-jobs balance
methodology be used.
D. Travel Demand Forecasting Model
The Florida Standard Urban Transportation Model Structure
("FSUTMS"), maintained by the Broward County MPO, was the
travel demand forecast model used to model alternative land use
intensities. The FSUTMS model is a four-stage gravity model. At
the most basic level, the typical forecasting model is structured
around the following four sequential steps:
o Trip Generation - Estimation of number of trips produced
by and attracted to each "traffic analysis" zone.
o Trip Distribution - Determination of the origin and
destination zone for each trip.
o Modal Choice - Calculation of number of trips using the
different modes of transportation such as auto, transit,
pedestrian and other.
o Assignment - "Loading" of auto trips onto the highway
network or person trips onto the transit network.
1. Land Use Inputs
Land use inputs are addressed in the model by dividing the
County into a number of traffic analysis zones ("TAZs"). A
TAZ is a compact geographic area that coincides with census
track boundaries and usually bounded by roadways, and
physical barriers such as expressways, rivers, canals, or other
Page 7
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
physical structures that limits the crossing of motorized
vehicles. Broward County has 892 TAZs. Two databases are
associated with each TAZ. Database 1 includes population
and housing information, depicting the production side of the
trip generation step. Database 2 comprises employment and
school data, displaying the attraction side of the trip
generation step. In addition, the model includes information
on special generators (i.e., major ports, parks, and shopping
malls), internal-external trips for travel across the county
lines either south to Miami-Dade County or north to Palm
Beach County, and external-external trips for trips passing
through Broward County.
2. Transportation System Inputs
The transportation system inputs include information on
roadway geometry (such as number of lanes, facility type,
area type etc.). The transit network uses mainly the highway
network, and other transit system information such as
headway, bus travel speed, bus stops, and bus capacity.
The FSUTMS model generates trips at each traffic analysis
zone (TAZ) from land use variables (population and
employment). Trips are distributed between zones using
gravity concept and friction factors.
Trips are then split between highway, transit and other modes
using mode choice concept. Highway trips are converted to
auto trips using an appropriate auto occupancy rate. Auto
trips are assigned to the highway network according to
equilibrium concept based on speed and capacity of each
highway facility in the network.
Before using the model in traffic projection, it should be
validated for the most recent year in which travel and census
data are available. In Broward County, the model was
validated for the year 1990. Transit coefficients are developed
based on current transit market shares. Model runs are made
until simulated model output matches the ground count for
the year being validated. Then, the validated model
coefficients and parameters are applied to future years. In
this case, the year 1990 validated model coefficients and
parameters were applied. For the purpose of this analysis, the
Page 8
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
main variable that was modified in the year 2015 model was
the land use data and transit connectivity to affected TAZ's.
E. Preliminary Modeling Results
The preliminary results for the first model run using baseline,
node, and corridor scenarios are depicted in Table 1-1. Under
Broward County's adopted year 2015 Long Range Transportation
Plan, the total number of person trips was estimated at 5.2
million trips per day in the baseline scenario. The node
intensification scenario of 12 du/ac produced 261,752 additional
person trips per day over the baseline scenario, a 5 percent
increase. The corridor intensification scenario of 8 du/ac
produced 2,530,863 additional person trips per day over the
baseline scenario, a 48.6 percent increase.
It was observed by the MPO staff that the increase in land use
density (population and employment) in each zone was
accompanied by an increase in intrazonal trips. Intrazonal trips
are those trips that are attracted to developments within a TAZ
and are not loaded onto the highway network. Intrazonal trips
increased by 9,814 in the nodes scenario and by 120,574 in the
corridor scenario over the baseline scenario. This increase in
intrazonal trips reduces total trips loaded on the highway
network, meaning fewer trips for public transit.

Vehicle miles traveled ("VMT") is used as a performance tool to
measure the overall use of a road segment. VMT is a
measurement derived by multiplying the traffic volume on a
roadway segment times the length of that segment in miles.
The node intensification scenario produced 1,266,260 VMT per
day over the baseline scenario, a 3.5 percent increase. The
corridor intensification scenario produced 11,194,204 VMT per
day over the baseline scenario, a 30.7 percent increase.
The two most significant characteristics for public transit on
Table 1-1 are mode split and daily transit ridership. Mode split is
the term used to describe the percent of total trips attributed to
public transit that, for this analysis, would include regular buses,
express buses and Tri-Rail.
The initial FSUTMS model runs showed a decline in mode split for
both the node intensification and corridor intensification
scenarios as compared with the baseline scenario. Under the
node intensification scenario, daily transit ridership declined by
528 trips as compared with the baseline scenario. The corridor
intensification scenario, however, produced 18,729 additional
person trips in daily transit ridership, a 23.8 percent increase
over the baseline scenario.
The preliminary FSUTMS model results were distributed to the
TAC, the FDOT District 4, and the DCA. The model results were
presented to the TAC and discussed at their January 16, 1998
meeting. The TAC agreed with MPO staff that mode split and
daily transit ridership should be reexamined because the results,
which represented only local bus ridership, were inconsistent
Page 10
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
with the increased intensities that should have improved mode
split and increased daily transit ridership. The MPO staff noted
that the preliminary model run for the node and corridor
intensification scenarios did not include any attempts to check
zonal connections to transit and availability of existing routes to
absorb additional transit riders. Further, data adjustments were
not made where a TAZ had existing intensity that was greater
than the intensity proposed under the node and corridor
scenarios. Finally, total populations under the node and corridor
intensification scenarios were not reviewed for consistency with
the projected 2015 high range population estimates. The MPO
staff noted that land use intensity increase in one area should be
accompanied by a decrease in other area to maintain a realistic
population control total. The MPO staff requested the TAC to
provide direction on these issues before making additional
FSUTMS runs.
The TAC requested the MPO staff to make the following
modifications to the model before a second run:
• Check zonal connections to transit routes,
• Check the availability of adequate transit vehicles to
absorb additional ridership,
• Make any appropriate changes in land use density to
maintain consistency and stay within the high-range
population control total for year 2015,
• Zonal connections should be formulated such that they
are within 1/4 mile of a bus stop. The 1/4 mile distance is
equivalent to a 5-minute walk, the generally accepted
maximum walking time for public transit,
• Public transit headway should be decreased where
appropriate to accommodate potential increase in
ridership,
• Use existing intensities in a TAZ where such exceeded
the intensities under the node and corridor
intensification scenarios, and
• Make necessary correction to zonal data.
With this direction, the MPO staff agreed to make additional
model runs. The MPO staff made corrections/adjustments to the
data and zonal connections as recommended by the TAC, and
ran the model a second time for both the corridor and nodes
scenarios. The second model run produced higher mode split
than observed in the first run. Mode split for the corridor
Page 11
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
scenario was estimated at 1.37, which was still lower than the
base year. Therefore, no further adjustments were made to the
node scenario.
Further adjustments were made to the corridor scenario
including zonal adjustments (additional walk connectors) were
made to those TAZs projected to experience a huge growth in
both population and employment densities. A third model run
was made for the corridor scenario. In this run, mode split
increased from 1.37 to 1.43 but was still lower than the baseline.
A fourth run was made after correcting zonal data associated
with TAZ 830. The fourth run model split for the corridor
scenario was estimated at 1.4, still lower that base year.
Since daily transit ridership was not increasing proportional to
that of population density, existing transit on routes servicing
targeted corridors (Route 2, 7, 18, 22, 72, and 83) were
enhanced to attract additional riders. The model was using hard
coded headway based on existing condition ranging from 30 to
60 minutes. Further, the model that recommended headway
was usually lower than the hard coded headway, therefore a fifth
model run was made with transit headway adjusted between the
model recommended headway and the hard coded headway for
the heavily used transit routes. Mode split after the fifth run was
1.70 higher than the baseline scenario.
At this point no further runs were anticipated for the corridor
scenario. However, total population estimated by the model was
higher than the higher range as reported in the Florida Statistical
Abstract. Therefore, a sixth and final run was made after
decreasing the population density from 8 units/per acres to
6/units per acre. The purpose for modifying acres/units was to
reduce the permanent population projections for Year 2015 from
2,514,130 to below the population control total of 2,232,300.
The sixth run mode split for the corridor scenario after adjusting
population total was 1.62, which is still higher than the baseline
scenario.
F. Final Modeling Results
The final modeling results using the FSUTMS are depicted in
Table 1-2. The baseline characteristics are the same for the
preliminary and final model runs. The node intensification
Page 12
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
scenario produced 353,632 person trips per day over the
baseline scenario, a 6.8 percent increase over baseline. The
corridor intensification scenario produced 1,926,219 total person
trips per day over the baseline scenario, a 37 percent increase
over baseline.

For intrazonal person trips, trips occurring between different land
uses inside a TAZ, the node intensification scenario produced
13,364 person trips and the corridor intensification scenario
produced 95,790 person trips per day over the baseline scenario.
This increase in intrazonal person trip making is attributed to the
increase in both productions and attractions within the modified
TAZs.
The increase in land use density, after the sixth model run,
showed an increase in mode spilt under both node and corridor
scenarios. Mode split increased from 1.51 under the baseline
scenario to 1.61 under the node intensification scenario and to
Page 13
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
1.63 under the corridor intensification scenario. Daily transit
ridership also improved under both scenarios. The node
intensification scenario produced 89,655 daily transit riders per
day and the corridor intensification scenario produced 116,040
daily transit riders per day.
The node intensification scenario produced 1,658,672 VMT per
day over baseline, while the corridor intensification scenario
produced 8,171,280 VMT per day over the baseline. The
increase in VMT is always accompanied by an increase in
congestion and air pollution. This impact should be weighed
against the increase in transit ridership and the improvement in
modal split demonstrated by both the node and corridor
scenarios.
G. Future Land Use Implications and Recommendations
The modeling results are consistent with the weight of data that
shows that intensifying land uses along public transit corridors
can improve transit ridership. The modeling results also indicate
that land use intensification must include some form of transit
enhancements as needed in order to attract and absorb
additional riders generated by lard use intensification such as
headway reduction. The modeling exercise, however, has several
important constraints that militate against wholesale future land
use map amendments along the identified corridors:
• Inadequacy of FSUTMS: The FSUTMS model was not
intended to be used for land use analysis although it is
used for this purpose throughout Florida. The existing
problem with using FSUTMS for this purpose is not the land
use data but the connectivity to the highway network and
the relationship between the land uses within a TAZ.
Existing connections are sometimes not representative of
existing conditions and the same connector used by
residential development connects commercial
development.
Commercial development occurs primarily along the
perimeter of a TAZ while residential development occurs
primarily within a TAZ. These factors must be weighted
before accepting the results of this analysis.
Page 14
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
• Macro not microanalysis: The model runs assumed the TAZ
at densities higher than those existing. Higher densities
are practical when a TAZ is primarily undeveloped, but are
unlikely when they are more fully developed.
• Political constraints: The governing bodies for Broward
County and its municipalities are not likely to accept future
land use map amendments based upon the results of a
modeling exercise.
Based on the model results, and consistent with an incremental
approach, the following two (2) recommendations are offered
and have been incorporated into the TE:
• Broward County, in conjunction with the affected
municipalities, the MPO, the FDOT, and the DCA, should
select at least one of the six (6) identified roadway
corridors for a demonstration project on transit oriented
design and development. The corridor selection should be
based upon such factors as:
o The degree of municipal interest in the corridor.
o The amount of undeveloped land and the
potential for redevelopment of existing land.
o The potential for implementation.
• The demonstration project should include the following
components:
o Preparation of an overlay transit oriented corridor
(TOC) zoning district that would be adopted by
each municipality along the corridor. There
already is some precedent for identical zoning
provisions among adjoining municipalities. For
example, although Port Everglades is owned and
operated by Broward County, it is located within
the Cities of Dania Beach, Hollywood and Fort
Lauderdale.
These municipalities have a zoning district within
their land development regulations that is
Page 15
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
identical, thereby facilitating development within
Port Everglades.
o Development of incentives for transit-oriented
development (TOD) located within a TOC zoning
district. These incentives could include such things
as: reduced parking requirements; waiver or
partial waiver of impact fees and other
development related costs; public funding of
transit-oriented development improvements (such
as bus bays, bus benches and shelters, pedestrian
facilities and connections to bus stop, etc.),
o Development of a long-term roadway and public
transit monitoring system. The monitoring
system should measure, at least on an annual
basis, the roadway and transit impacts along the
corridor, the roadway and transit impacts of TODs
versus auto-oriented developments along the
corridor.
o Grant funding for the demonstration project,
including the hiring of a full time transit corridor
coordinator by Broward County.
o Improving public transit access along the corridor.
II.DATA REQUIREMENTS
The Transportation Element is based upon identification of the
following information:
• General location of the transportation networks;
• Functional classification of roadways;
• Maintenance Responsibilities;
• Transit trip generators and attractors;
• Designated transportation facilities for hurricane evacuation;
• Peak direction of level of service for roads, public transit
facilities, and corridors or routes; and,

The information required to be included in the Transportation
Element is spelled out in Rule 93-5 of the Florida Administrative
Code.
A. The Transportation System
The transportation system encompasses the following networks:
roadways, public transit, bikeways, pedestrian ways, waterways,
airports, railways, recreational traffic, and intermodal facilities.
1. Roadway Network
The roadway network includes the following features:
roadway segments or links, road intersections, bridges,
rights-of-way, signalization, signage, roadway amenities, and
significant parking facilities. This subsection also presents
safety-related roadway network data.
a. Segments
A roadway segment or link is a portion of a roadway
defined for the purpose of traffic analysis. The segment
origination and termination points are typically signalized
intersections or the point where the number of lanes on a
roadway changes. Segments can be classified by lanes
and functions.
Number of lanes. Rule 91-5.019(2)(a) 9., FAC, requires
the number of through lanes for each roadway be
identified on an existing transportation map or map series.
A map depicting the roadways within the City that are
utilized to achieve the mobility goals for the community
and the number of lanes on each facility is provided as
Map 2-1.
Functional classification and maintenance responsibilities.
Rule 93-5.019(2)(a) 8, FAC, also requires the existing
functional classification and maintenance responsibilities
for all roads be shown on the existing transportation map
series. Functional classification was developed for
transportation planning purposes and is the grouping of
roadways by the character of service they provide. Table
2-1 depicts the federal functional classification system for
Page 17
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
urban roadways. These classifications are defined in
Section V of this Element.
Table 2-1
Federal Functional Classification System

Minor Arterial
Collector
Local
Source: Hiahwav Functional Classification Concepts Criteria and
Procedures, Federal Highway Administration.
The designation of federal functional classification is made
following the publication of the decennial U.S. Census or
whenever required by federal regulation. When evaluating
the function of a road, the U.S. Department of
Transportation (US DOT) considers a road's trip purposes
in relation to the total public roadway network. A road is
classified based upon its most significant trip purpose;
however, a road may serve more than one significant trip
purpose.
The federal functional classification system recognizes
twelve (12) significant trip purposes. Table 2-2 lists the
significant trip purposes related to each functional
classification. Arterial roadways are classified as either
principal or minor.
A roadway serving only one of the arterial road defined
purposes is classified as a minor arterial, while one serving
more than a single defined purpose is classified as a
principal arterial road. All limited access highways and
roads that connect urbanized areas are considered to serve
several trip purposes, and thus are classified as principal
arterial roads. A collector road's purpose is to provide
access to minor public facilities, cross-connection between
roads, access to concentrated land use areas, and access
to diffuse land use areas.

The maintenance responsibility of the roadway system is
shared by Federal, State, County, and municipal
governments.
In general, Broward County is responsible for the
maintenance of all County roads and the State is responsible
for maintaining principal arterial roads. Map 2-1, Existing
Roads, shows the existing maintenance responsibility for
roadways located within Dania Beach.
Florida Intrastate Highway System. Section 334.03, FS,
defines the "Florida Intrastate Highway System" (FINS) as a
system of limited access and controlled access facilities on the
State Highway System, which have the capacity to provide
high-speed and high-volume traffic movements in an efficient
and safe manner. State legislation enacted in 2004 has
created a Strategic Intermodal System (SIS) that is a regional
network of transportation facilities including the FIHS
roadway component. SIS/FIRS requires the establishment of
strategies to facilitate local traffic use of alternatives to the
FIHS. Table 2-4 lists those roadway segments on the Florida
Intrastate Highway System (FINS) that are located within
Dania Beach.

b. Intersections and Interchanges
An intersection is defined as the general area where two or
more roadways join or cross at grade, including the
roadway and roadside facilities for traffic movements
within the intersection. An intersection is an important
Page 21
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
part of the roadway network because its design influences
the efficiency, safety, speed, cost of operation, and
capacity of roadways. Interchanges are designed to
permit traffic to move freely from one road to another
without crossing another line of traffic. The north half of
the Stirling Road/I-95 Interchange, all of the Griffin
Road/I-95 Interchange and a portion of the I-595/1-95
Interchange are located within Dania Beach.
c. Right-of-way
Right-of-way often is the major cost for transportation
improvement projects; therefore, the acquisition of the
needed land should be planned far in advance of the
scheduled construction time. The Broward County
Trafficways Plan, administered by the Broward County
Planning Council, is a roadway right-of-way preservation
plan. To accommodate the impacts of new development,
right-of-way is dedicated by developing parcels to provide
for an adequate regional roadway network.
A dedication for at least half of the roadway width that the
Trafficways Plan calls for is normally required to be
dedicated to the public at the platting stage. This
dedication can also be obtained during site plan other
development permit processes. Objective VIII and related
implementing policies address right-of-way protection and
preservation.
Currently there are four main classifications designated in
the Trafficways Plan: limited access/controlled freeways;
arterial; collector; and one-way pair. The right-of-way
width for the limited access and controlled freeways is 325
feet; for arterial roadways, it varies from 100 to 200 feet;
for collector roads, it ranges from 70 to 94 feet; and for
one-way pairs, the range is from 42 to 54 feet.
d. Signalization
Signalization is an important part of the roadway system.
It controls the flow of traffic; therefore, it affects the traffic
volume passing through a particular intersection. For
isolated (that is, non-system or uncoordinated) operation,
the signal type indicates the degree to which a traffic
Page 22
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
signal's cycle length, phase plan, and phase times are
preset or actuated. There are currently two types of
signals in use: actuated signals and semi-actuated signals.
Intersections that have actuated signals will have vehicle
detectors for all approaches. Each phase is subject to a
minimum and maximum green time and some phases may
be "skipped" if no vehicle demand is detected.
Intersections installed with semi-actuated signals only
have detectors located on the minor street. The signal is
set such that the green is always on the major street
unless a vehicle is detected on the minor street. The pre-
timed signal has a preset sequence of phases in repetitive
order. Each phase has a fixed green time and change
interval that is repeated in each cycle. The Broward County
Traffic Engineering Division is responsible for installing and
maintaining all signal systems in the County. The purpose
of traffic signal computerization is to optimize signal
operation, thereby, providing a more efficient
transportation system. Coordination of traffic signals
through computerization has been recognized as one of
most effective ways to improve the traffic flows.
e. Signage
Signing and markings are features of traffic control and
operation that must be considered in the geometric layout
of each facility. The FDOT, Broward County, and the
municipalities create and maintain signage on their
functionally assigned roadways.
f. Amenities
Landscaping is the primary highway amenity. Landscape
design of completed highways serves functional, as well as
aesthetic purposes. Plants can aid with glare reduction P P 9 ,
acoustical control, erosion control, and traffic control, if
they are well chosen and judiciously placed. Plants also
can create and define spaces, by complementing and
improving the attractiveness of certain sites, while
masking undesirable views. Landscape design can
influence speed through control of road focal points.
Page 23
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
g. Significant parking facilities and durational limits
Significant public parking facilities in Broward Count are
9 P P 9 Y
defined as greater than 500 parking spaces. Long-term
parking facilities are defined as more than a day parking
duration. Parking facilities that meet these definitions are
depicted on Map 2-1. The closest facility to Dania Beach
that meets these definitions is Fort Lauderdale Hollywood
International Airport which has over 8,000 spaces for long
and short term parking. The Sportsman Park Tri-Rail
station also provides long and short term parking for
approximately 180 vehicles. The Dania Jai Alai fronton on
Dania Beach Boulevard is another significant parking
facility in close proximity to the downtown area. Parking
policies at these facilities are determined by the respective
owners. Two centrally located city-owned facilities with
significant parking include city hall (100 spaces) and Frost
Park (130 spaces). In addition, approximately 100 on-
street parking spaces exist in the downtown area. The City
maintains and implements land development regulations
that require new development and redevelopment to
provide adequate on-site parking for all uses.
h. Safety
A safe roadway network enhances the protection of life and
property. Safety concerns are monitored by tracking
measures such as crash indicators, access management
standards, and hurricane evacuation.
Crash Indicators
The City Police Department (Broward Sheriff's Office)
supplies the Florida Department of Highway Safety (FDHS)
with accident data collected in the City. Accident data is
also compiled by the State Highway Patrol and other
municipal police departments. The City supports legislation
which establishes a consistent statewide road safety
database that would be readily available to municipalities
and the public so that the appropriate agencies could be
better prepared to correct safety problems.
The City continues to support efforts by FOOT and Broward
County to identify, fund and construct improvements to
reduce the number of accidents.

Access management
Transportation Element Policy 3.4 provides for Dania Beach
to prepare land development regulations to control the
connection of access points of driveways and roads to
roadways.
Hurricane evacuation
No residential development is located on the barrier island.
That portion of the City that is located on the barrier island
is limited to the Florida Atlantic University Sea Tech
Research Facility, a public park, and the public beach.
Persons east of Federal Highway that are to be evacuated
during a Hurricane need not cross bridges to the mainland.
The designated roadway facilities utilized to evacuate the
coastal populations are shown on Map 2-1. Table 2-5
shows the two east-west evacuation routes leading from
and into the Coastal High Hazard Area. All bridges crossing
the Intracoastal Waterway are moveable bascule bridges
as identified on Table 2-6.

2. Public Transit Network
Map 2-2.1, the 2007 Broward County Public Transit Network,
shows Broward County Transit public transit routes, terminals
and transfer stations.
a. Public transit facilities
Public transit facilities include bus terminals, transfer
stations, rights-of-way, motorized vehicles (buses and
vans), transit bus stops, transit amenities, and other
facilities. There are no terminals or transfer stations in the
City of Dania Beach,
Rights-Of-Way and Exclusive Public Transit Corridors.
Additional right-of-way is acquired along major arterial
roadways during the roadway widening process for bus
pullout bays, also called bus bays. Bus pullout bays are
specialized bus stop auxiliary lanes, independent of the
through traffic travel lane. The bus bays are designed to
minimize traffic obstruction and maximize passenger
safety. Right of way for bus bays is also obtained through
the platting process.
Exclusive public transit corridors are roadways or railways
exclusively designated by the FDOT or a local government
for public transit, which are physically separated from
general use corridors and to which access is highly
restricted. The South Florida Rail Corridor, previously
known as the CSX Transportation railway corridor, is the
currently the only exclusive public transportation corridor
Page 26
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
in Dania Beach and all of Broward County. The City of
Dania Beach, in conjunction with the SFRPC and other
eastern cities, are studying the feasibility of introducing
passenger/commuter rail traffic on the Florida East Coast
railway.
Public Transit Vehicles. Broward County Transit's ("BCt")
2005 vehicle inventory consists of 275 full-size transit
coaches, each with seating capacities of 40-42persons. All
vehicles are air-conditioned and have kneeling
mechanisms, which lower the steps of a bus to
accommodate persons who have mobility impairments. All
buses are equipped with wheelchair lifts for facilitating
boarding and disembarking, which extend from the bus to
the at-grade level of the bus stop (either sidewalk or
roadway). The average age of the BCt fleet is 5 years.
Public Transit Bus Stoos BCt maintains, monitors, and
updates its' Bus Stoo Inventory. Each stop has a unique
code for the bus route and a unique location code that that
shows that there are shared bus stops. A non-accessible
bus stop is one that does not have a 5-foot by 8-foot
concrete pad, connected to a sidewalk with a curb cut.
Public Transit Amenities. The Bus Stop Inventory reports
data regarding amenities, including bus benches, shelters,
pull-out bays, right turn lanes, and trashcans. Shelters
located in municipalities are coordinated with the
municipalities in accordance with BCt standards. The City
of Dania Beach has contracts with private advertising
companies to provide bus benches and bus shelters where
the City and the respective company mutually agree to
their placement.

Other facilities. A bus maintenance facility is located on
Angler's Avenue south of Griffin Road within Dania Beach.
Page 27
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
This site has the capacity to park and maintain up to 150
buses.
b. Public transit services.
Public transit services are passenger services provided by
public, private or non-profit entities. They include the
following surface transit modes: fixed route bus service,
express route bus service, feeder bus service, demand
responsive service, municipal transit service, intercounty
service, and other services. Map 2-2.1, Broward County
Transit Routes, shows the existing fixed public transit
routes.
Fixed-Route Bus Service. The Broward County Mass Transit
Division operates Broward County Transit (BCt), a
fixed-route bus system servicing nearly all of Broward
County's developable area. It provides service on a
repetitive, fixed-schedule basis. Each fixed-route trip
serves the same origins and designations. Currently, BCt
operates 40 transit routes, 35 as regular open-door service
and one as a park-and-ride service.
Fixed-route transit service is provided seven days a week,
although at reduced levels on Sundays and certain
holidays. Regular routes operate from as early as 5:00
a.m. until 10:30 p.m. on weekdays and Saturday, and
from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Sundays. Park-and-ride
routes operate at the beginning and end of each weekday.
Regular routes primarily operate on 30-minute headways
during the week and Saturday, 60 minutes on Sundays.
The City of Dania Beach is currently served by several BCt
fixed routes including Routes 1, 3, 4, 6, 12, 15, and 17.
These routes, in conjunction with the Community Shuttle,
provide transit coverage to over 80% of the area in the
City as reflected in Map 2-2.2, Transit Route Coverage
Map. The transit route load factor is a capacity
performance measure used in the Congestion Management
System (CMS). A bus route with a load factor of one (1) is
operating at capacity, meaning all seats are occupied.
Table 2-8 shows there is one transit route that achieves
the load factor of one (1) during peak hours within Dania
Beach. With only one of many transit routes that serve
Page 28
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
operating at capacity, there is generally adequate capacity
in the current BCt system to accommodate additional
riders who live and work in Dania Beach. With respect to
Route No. 1 (US 1), the City supports BCt efforts to
expand capacity, increase operating hours, and reduce
headways.

Express Bus Services. There is not any express bus service
currently serving the City of Dania Beach.
Feeder Bus Services. Feeder bus service routes are
defined as local transit service that picks up and delivers
passengers to a rail transit terminal, express bus stop,
transfer point, or terminal. Feeder bus service is currently
provided to Tri-Rail stations under a private contract.
Broward County, through a contract with the Tri-County
Commuter Rail Authority, supplies feeder services to the
Tri-Rail terminal located in Dania Beach and identified in
Table 2-9.

Community Bus Service. Community Bus Service, operated
by the City under a contract with Broward County,
provides intracity (local) bus service from neighborhoods
to local destinations, including shopping centers, medical
facilities, community centers, parks, the municipal beach,
Page 29
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
and Broward County Transit transfer locations. Under this
contract, the City leases ADA accessible minibuses from
BCt for $10 per year. BCt pays an annual stipend to assist
in the maintenance and operation of the vehicles. The mini
buses have a capacity of 16 passenger vehicles and all are
wheel chair accessible. The City staff work closely with BCt
and citizens to design route alignments and operating
characteristics. The Community Bus Service, while a fixed
route facility, can be modified by the City based on citizen
user demand and capacity. The City periodically evaluates
the Community Bus System in conjunction with BCt to
assess ridership rates and identify system improvements.
The City currently operates three community bus service
routes. These routes are identified on Map 2-2.3,
Community Bus route Map. While the service is designed
to provide local bus service, another function is to provide
access to the regional transit system including Tri-Rail.
The routes are designed to provide links with BCt Routes.
These links provide those who live and work in the City
who are not served by BCt fixed route service with access
to the regional transit system. Hours of operation are
Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. The
community bus service operates on 40 minute headways.
Page 30
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
Total transit coverage area in the City is over 80%
including the BCt and the Community Bus service. See
Map 2-2.2.

Demand Responsive Service. Broward County funds and
administers the Transportation Options Program (TOPS),
which provides door-to-door service, upon request, to
residents who are transportation or economically
disadvantaged, for several specific trip purposes. The Mass
Transit Division reports that in 1997 there were
approximately 164 privately operated taxi and limousine
companies registered in Broward County. These
companies have licensed vehicles with capacities of eight
(8) passengers or less.
Intercounty Services. BCt fixed routes provide intercounty
service to Miami Dade and Palm Beach Counties. Route 1
which runs from the Broward Downtown terminal to the
Aventura Mall travels through the City of Dania Beach
along US1. BCt routes also connect with Palm Beach
County's transit system at the Boca Town Center and
Mizner Park Developments in the City of Boca Raton.
Page 31
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
Other Transportation Services. Other transportation
providers within Broward County that provide service to
Dania Beach include the Broward County School Board and
various private companies, as well as over 30 social
service agencies.
c. FDOT designated public transportation corridors
The purpose of corridor designation and subsequent
planning is to relieve congestion by increasing people
carrying capacity through the use of high occupancy
vehicles. FOOT has identified seven designated public
transportation corridors in Broward County. The Tri-Rail
corridor is the only currently designated public
transportation corridor in the City of Dania Beach. Details
about the corridor, including justifications are provided in
the public transportation corridor reports prepared by
FOOT. The City of Dania Beach, in conjunction with the
SFRPC and other eastern cities, are studying the feasibility
of introducing passenger rail traffic on the Florida East
Coast railway.
The Tri-Rail corridor travels through the City of Dania
Beach along the west side of I-95. The current and future
land use plan designations along the corridor are generally
compatible with the transit corridor and include
nonresidential uses such as commercial, industrial and FLL.
The Dania Beach Tri-Rail station is located on Griffin Road
and is an integral part of the Sportsman Park retail and
entertainment center. In order to further enhance the
attractiveness of the Tri-Rail system and improve the
linkage between land uses and transit service, residential
uses should be developed at and around the Tri-Rail
stations, where appropriate, to create an urban village
development pattern.
In order to promote and protect this public transportation
corridor, the City will continue to coordinate with Broward
County Planning Council, MOT and the MPO along with
other municipalities to establish a transit oriented corridor
overlay zoning district as a means of promoting public
transit use and reducing the impact on the Florida
Interstate Highway System.
Page 32
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
d. Major public transit trip generators and attractors
Major public transit generators and attractors are
concentrated areas of intense land use or activity that
produce or attract a significant number of local trip ends.
Public transit generators are typified by residential land
uses.
Public transit attractors include commercial, industrial,
office, commercial recreation, educational, institutional,
and transportation land uses. Ideally, public transit should
connect major transit generators to major transit
attractors.
Broward County defines a major public transit generator as
one of the 40 Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs) with the
highest population density. A major public transit attractor
is one of the 40 TAZs with the highest employment
density. The number 40 was chosen because it
approximately represents five (5) percent of all TAZs
within Broward County. The major public transit generator
and attractor TAZs are displayed in Map 2-3.
Other activity centers in and adjacent to the City are
provided below:
ActivityCenter Activi T e
Cit Hall Em to ment
Dania Jai Alai Fronton Recreation
Dania Beach Recreation
John U Lloyd State Park Recreation
Outdoor World/ Sportsman Shopping, Museum
Park
All of these activity centers are served by BCt or
Community Bus routes.
e. Safety
(Broward County Transit: BCt) Public transit safety
addresses such issues as the safety certification process,
transit fatalities and injuries, security surveillance at
terminals and on buses, and hurricane evacuation.
Page 33
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
Safety certification. BCt is in full compliance with the
safety requirements mandated by the System Safety
Program Plan (SSPP), Chapter 14-90, "Equipment and
Operational Safety Standards Governing Public Sector Bus
Transit Systems".
Security detail and surveillance. BCt has a security detail
composed of Broward County Sheriff deputies.
Additionally, all new buses purchased are equipped with
security cameras.
Hurricane evacuation. BCt provides bus service to the
Coastal High Hazard Area.
3. Bicycle Network
The bicycle network includes bicycle facilities and services
designed to enable and encourage the use of bicycles for
recreational and utilitarian purposes. Recreational trips
include travel for leisure, enjoyment, or pleasure and
utilitarian trips include travel for work or errands.
a. Bicycle facilities
Bicycle facilities include bikeways, bicycle parking racks
and bicycle transport racks.
Bikeways. A bikeway is any road, path or way that is open
to bicycle travel and from which motor vehicles are
excluded. Bikeways may be located within a roadway
right-of-way, but are usually within an independent right-
of-way. Broward County bikeways include paths, lanes,
and wide curb lanes, which total almost 299 miles. The
locations of bikeways are displayed on Map 2-4,
"Significant Bikeways". Bikeways predominantly follow
state roads, although scattered segments follow local
roads.
A bike path is a bikeway that is physically separated by an
open space or barrier. The bike path follows the east side
of S.E. 5th Avenue, between Sheridan Street and East
Dania Beach Boulevard. There is a substandard bike lane
in Dania Beach Boulevard from S.E. 5th Avenue to the
Page 34
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
public beach across the Intracoastal Waterway. Upgrading
this facility is addressed in Objective 1, Policy 1-16.
Bicycle transport racks. Bicycle transport racks are
facilities provided on public transit vehicles and allow a
passenger to carry a bike from a point of origin to a
destination. Public transport racks enable the public transit
user to reach destinations not served by the public transit
system, thereby increasing the service area. Currently
transport racks are provided on several BCt bus routes and
are planned for all routes. Tri-Rail provides bicycle
transport racks on each car.
b. Bicycle services
Bicycle services include bicycle repair services and
educational programs.
Repair. Bike repair and maintenance are integral to bike
ownership. The private sector provides bicycle repair
services. There are numerous bicycle repair shops located
throughout the county.
4. Airports and Related Facility Services
Civil aviation activities can be subdivided into passenger air
carrier, air cargo, and general aviation facilities. Broward
County owns, operates and maintains the Fort
Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport (FLL) which is
located immediately adjacent to the corporate limits of the
City of Dania Beach. FLL is a regional facility that serves
international and domestic air carriers. It occupies a site of
1,718 acres located south of I-595 and north of Griffin Road.
The airport is accessible by roadway (from I-95, I-595, Griffin
Road and US-1), by Tri-Rail shuttle service and by a BCt bus
route.
The airfield consists of three active runways and supporting
taxi ways and taxi lanes. The southern runway is a utility
runway, designed for use by general aviation and commuter
aircrafts. The other runways are designed to accommodate air
carrier aircraft.
Page 35
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
The existing terminal complex includes three terminal building
units with five concourses. The terminals provide facilities to
accommodate passengers and their baggage including ticket
counter, passenger waiting areas, baggage claim, baggage
handling, concessions, customs and immigration, as well as
airline operations base. The terminals combined exceed
900,000 square feet. Parking structure and surface parking
lots accommodate short and long term parking for over
10,000 vehicles.
FLL has experienced significant growth in recent years and
future growth is projected. Due to the scale and activity at
FLL, one of the City's biggest challenges regarding
transportation and land use planning is to ensure that future
expansion on the airport is consistent and compatible with
established 30+ year old residential neighborhoods adjacent
to the airport. To assure that airport and airfield development
is compatible with established residential development
abutting the airport, city staff and elected officials participate
in the planning processes related to FLL.
5. Intermodal Terminals and Access to Intermodal
Facilities
An intermodal facility is a facility designed to relate to two or
more modes of transportation using single or closely related
transportation facility and service.
FDOT's Corridor Management Procedure defines it as the
provision of connections between different transportation
modes, such as adequate highways to ports or bus feeder
services to rail transit, individual modes working together to
provide the user with the best choices of services. For
purposes of this Transportation Element only passenger
intermodal facilities are addressed.
Intermodal facilities include terminals, high-occupancy vehicle
(HOV) lanes and park-and-ride facilities. Intermodal facilities
that serve Dania Beach include the Sportsman Park Tri-Rail
station and the Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International
Airport (FLL). FLL is served by roadways, rail and transit
service which makes it a primary intermodal facility in the
region. The Sportsman Park Tri-Rail station is the closest to
FLL and shuttle service is provided to connect Tri-Rail to FLL.
Page 36
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
Plans are currently being developed by Broward County to
expand the intermodal connections at FLL with a rail facility
that will link FLL with Port Everglades.
B. Transportation Level of Service Standard
Florida law requires transportation level of service standards be
adopted for roads and public transit facilities within the local
government's jurisdiction.
1. Roadway LOS Standards
The roadway level of service (LOS) standard is a qualitative
assessment of the road user's perception of the quality of flow
of traffic. The LOS standard is represented by a letter scale
"A" through "F," with "A" being the most favorable conditions
and "F" being the least favorable. The LOS is measured by
dividing the number of vehicle trips (i.e., volume) on the
facility by the capacity of that facility. While this is the most
prevalent LOS standard, other standards could be employed.
This includes LOS standards based on the number of person
trips, vehicle miles traveled, vehicle hours traveled, or
average speed can be used.
a. Strategic Intermodal System (SIS) / Florida
Intrastate Highway System.
Rule 91-5.0055(2)(c), FAC, requires local governments to
adopt the LOS standards established by the Florida
Department of Transportation by rule for facilities on the
SIS / FIHS. The only SIS/FINS roadways in Dania Beach
are I-95 and I-595.
ROADWAY LINK TWO-WAY LANES
PEAK HOUR
VOLUMES
I-95 Miami Dade 14,300 10
Count to I-595

b. Roadway LOS standard exemptions.
The Florida Statues allow local and county governments to
adopt a number of exceptions to the traffic concurrency
Page 37
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
requirements. The exceptions apply to geographic areas
(e.g., transportation concurrency exception areas), to
specific roadway segments (e.g., constrained roadways),
and to specific developments (e.g., de minimis impacts).
The entire City was located within the Broward County
Urban Infill Transportation Concurrency Exception Area
which allowed development to proceed in infill areas
without meeting the concurrency standards. The TCEA
(adopted in 1995) extends from the Atlantic Ocean to
Florida's Turnpike in the southern half of Broward County.
Broward County has replaced the TCEA with Transit
Oriented Concurrency (TOC). The City of Dania Beach is
incorporating TOC into its Comprehensive Plan.
c. Other non-local and non-municipal roadways.
Rule 93-5.0055(2) (c), FAC, requires local governments to
adopt LOS standards for county and state roads. While the
City of Dania Beach has adopted the generalized two-way
peak hour volumes for Florida's Urbanized Areas at the
LOS "D" standard as shown in Table 2-11, the City of
Dania Beach addresses and establishes the LOS within
Transit Oriented Concurrency.

2. Concurrency Management System
The Community Development Department implements the
Concurrency Management System (CMS) as it relates to
municipal roadways. The Broward County Department of
Environmental Protection implements the CMS for County and
State roadways. The CMS provides a development order or
permit shall be issued when a roadway exceeds the applicable
adopted LOS standard provided one or more of the following
mitigation measures apply:
1).The proposed development does not place any trips on, or
create any, overcapacity links within the impact area. The
impact area consists of all property within the impact
distance of the boundary of the proposed development
site, where the impact distance is defined below:
Proposed Use: Impact Distance
miles :
Church 1
Commercial, less than 200,000 1
square feet GFA
Commercial, between 200,000 & 1 2
million sq ft GFA
Commercial, greater than 1 million 3
square feet GFA
Commercial recreation 1
Community Facility 1
Day Care 1
Hotel 1
Industrial / Warehouse 2
Office 2
Park local 1
Park (regional) 2
Regional Cultural/Tourism Facility 3
Residential 1.5
School 1
Proposed developments with mixed use will be assigned
the impact distance from the above table that is closest to
the weighted average of impact distances of the individual
uses in the proposed development, with the weights based
on trips generated. Traffic studies submitted by an
Page 39
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
applicant shall be considered in reaching this
determination.
2).The proposed development places trips on, or creates
overcapacity links within the impact area but one of the
following conditions applies:
a. There is an approved action plan to accommodate
the traffic impact of the development; or
b. The necessary improvements to provide the
applicable level of service are either under
construction or are the subject of a executed
contract for the immediate implementation of the
improvements at the time the permit is issued; or
c. The necessary improvements to provide the
applicable level of service have been included in the
first two (2) years of the adopted municipal, state or
county schedule of transportation improvements and
the applicable government entity makes a
determination that a binding contract for the
implementation of said improvements will be
executed no later than the final day of the second
fiscal year of the original schedule; provided,
however, that for an improvement to a FIHS facility,
inclusion in the third year of the adopted state
program may also be acceptable; or
d. The necessary improvements for the applicable LOS
are provided for in an enforceable development
agreement and will be available prior to certificates
of occupancy that require those facilities. An enforce-
able development agreement may include, but is not
limited to, development agreements pursuant to
section 163.3220, Florida Statutes; or
e. The development permit will be issued in accordance
with, and as authorized by, an approved Florida
Quality Development (FQD) or Development of
Regional Impact (DR]) development order which
development order was either issued prior to the
adoption of the 1989 Broward County
Page 40
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
Comprehensive Plan or was issued after being
reviewed for concurrency; or
f. The proposed development is found to have vested
rights with regard to any affected road segment in
accordance with the provisions of Chapter 163, Part
II, Florida Statutes, or a common law vested rights
determination made as to that road segment in
accordance with Section 5-181(I) of this Article. The
proposed development must meet concurrency for
any road segment for which a vested rights
determination has not been made; or
g. The proposed development meets the de minimis
criteria.
h. The proposed development is within an area
designated on the Broward County Land Use Plan for
urban infill, urban redevelopment or downtown
revitalization transportation concurrency area.
i. The proposed development would promote public
transportation. Specifically, the proposed
development is either:
(ii)a public transit capital facility, including
transit terminals, lines, shelters and
stations; or
(iii) an office building or office project that
includes fixed-rail or transit terminals as
part of the building
This CMS was modified from the one that was
adopted in the City's previous Traffic Circulation
Element. The revisions will be incorporated in the
City's Land Development Code as stated in Policy
1.29. Policy 1.25 addresses coordination with
Broward County concerning overcapacity roadways
segments and roadway segments approaching
capacity.

III. DATA ANALYSIS REQUIREMENTS
The Transportation Element is based upon the following series of
analysis: land use and transportation system interaction; existing
and projected transportation level of service and system needs,
including existing and projected intermodal needs; maintaining the
adopted transportation level of service standards; consistency
between future land use and transportation elements, and
consistency with other transportation plans; and promotion and
support of public transportation system in designated public
transportation corridors. The minimum requirements for this
analysis are spelled out in Rule 93-5.0199(3) of the Florida
Administrative Code (FAC.).
A. Land Use and Transportation System Interaction
This section is broken down into four parts: Subsection 1
addresses growth trends and travel patterns associated with the
transportation system, i.e., the roadway and public transit
networks (91-5.019(3)(d), FAC). Subsection 2 focuses on the
adequacy of the transportation system for evacuation (91-
5.019(3)(c), FAC). Subsection 3 looks at the availability of the
transportation system to serve existing land uses (93-
5.019(3)(b), FAC). Subsection 4 addresses land use
compatibility around airports (93-5.019(3)(d), FAC).
1. Growth Trends and Travel Patterns
No single force has had a greater impact on the pattern of
land development in American cities in this century than the
construction of roadways (See, The Transportation/Land Use
Connection, Moore and Thorsnes, 1994). Initially, better
roadways decreased the cost (both time and money) of
transportation within and between urban areas. In recent
years, roadway construction has gone hand in hand with what
has become known as urban sprawl.
Broward County's historic growth and development were
primarily linked to the construction of the Atlantic Intracoastal
Waterway and Flagler's railroad. These improvements
allowed the movement of freight and passengers to and from
Broward County. It was the development of the railroad that
specifically led to the development of Dania Beach as an
agricultural center. It became a City in 1904 not only making
Page 42
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
it the oldest municipality in Broward County; it was a legal
entity prior to the creation of Broward County. Construction
of US 1 and then I-95 through Broward County provided
Dania Beach with greatly enhanced roadway access. More
recent growth in Broward County has been westward
following the opening of lands for development through
drainage projects and subsequent building of high volume
roadways. Broward County is now attempting to re-direct
part of this growth that has been going to the west through
its participation in the Eastward Ho! Initiative. This initiative
has seen significant interest in development and
redevelopment within the City of Dania Beach.
2. Establishment of Community Redevelopment Area and
Local Activity Center Land Use Designation
In April 2004, the Broward County Commission approved the
City of Dania Beach Community Redevelopment Area ("CRA")
Plan for a 500 acre CRA to include commercial properties
along the US 1 corridor, the Dania Beach Boulevard Corridor,
as well as the central business district surrounding city hall.
Also in 2004, both Broward County and DCA approved the
City's 150 acre "Local Activity Center" land use plan
amendment designation within the urban core of the CRA
(See Map 2-5). Both the CRA and LAC land use designations
are intended to foster redevelopment of Dania Beach's 100
year old business district as a mixed-use pedestrian friendly
urban village incorporating Transit-Oriented-Design (TOD) to
increase transit usage and reduce reliance on single
occupancy vehicle usage.
3. Availability of Transportation Facilities and Modes to
Serve Existing Land Use
Availability, as used here, refers to the extent to which the
transportation system provides access to serve existing land
uses. Roadways, public transit, bikeways, and pedestrian
ways are transportation modes that require an extensive
network of connections in order to serve existing uses.
Consequently, this section addresses availability of the
roadway, public transit, bikeways, and pedestrian way
networks to serve existing land use.
Page 43
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
a. Roadway network
Availability of the roadway network to serve existing land
uses is primarily a function of the existing local roadway
system. New development in the City is assured adequate
access to local roadways by the Dania Beach City Code.
Collector and arterial roadways, as a secondary or tertiary
function, often provided direct access to existing land uses.
This occurred more often prior to the implementation of
current access management standards.
b. Public transit network
Availability of public transit to service existing land uses is
based on the functional area coverage of the existing
fixed-route bus network. Functional area coverage is
defined as a 1/2 mile corridor surrounding a bus route, 1/4
mile in each direction. The 1/4 mile radius is based upon
studies showing a person would walk up to 1/4 mile to
access the public transit network. The level of service
standard adopted by Broward County for public transit is to
maintain a 70 percent peak hour functional coverage for
residential and employment areas. Data provided in
Section C below indicates that these standards are met
and there are no transit concurrency deficiencies in the
County-wide transit system. Route coverage maps
provided as Map 2-2.2 indicate that over 80 percent of the
City is currently served by the Broward County transit
system and the Community Bus Service. The City
continues to coordinate with the MPO and BCt to expand
and enhance transit service in the City. The City is
committed to providing the Community Bus Service in
conjunction with Broward County to serve these areas of
the City that are not within the BCt fixed route service
coverage area.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that
BCt, as an operator of a fixed-route bus system, offer
complementary service to persons with disabilities who are
unable to use the fixed-route system. A complementary
paratransit service should operate at the level of service
comparable to what is provided to persons without
disabilities who use the fixed-route system. Since 1996,
Page 44
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
Broward County Transit has been in full compliance with
the service criteria established by the ADA.
c. Bikeways Network
As previously described, the bikeway system in Dania
Beach is limited and deficient, especially along state roads.
The City continues to work with FDOT (who has sole
jurisdiction over state roads) to obtain funding for bike
lane improvements, particularly along Dania Beach
Boulevard between Downtown and the Beach. The City
also requires the addition of bike paths and bike lanes
along all state roads scheduled for resurfacing or
reconstruction.
This link between the bicycle and public transit is possible
because BCt and Tri-Rail are making provision to carry
bicycles on their vehicles. Lack of appropriate bicycle
facilities at terminals, however, limits the effectiveness of
the connection between the bicycle and public transit.
Placing bicycle lockers at Tri-Rail stations and BCt transfer
points would increase security for parked bicycles, but
requires administration over the locker rentals. Providing
this service would eliminate two (2) major disincentives to
riding a bicycle to a transit location: lack of parking and
bicycle theft.
Allowing bicycles access on board commuter trains and
buses has been successful in many areas around the
country. In 1995, Tri-Rail developed a policy that would
allow bicycles to be brought onto trains. Initially, this
policy restricted the hours a bicycle could be brought on
board. In 1997, however, Tri-Rail changed its policy
regarding bicycles and now allows bicycles on all of its
trains. Also, in 1997, BCt began receiving Congestion
Mitigation and Air Quality funds to equip the entire fleet of
buses with bicycle racks.
d. Pedestrian ways/Sidewalks
Availability of pedestrian ways to service existing land uses
is primarily a product of the functional area coverage of
the existing pedestrian way. As noted in the public transit
availability discussion, the distance a person would be
Page 45
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
willing to walk for transit is approximately 1/4 mile or 1,320
feet. While this distance is the industry standard, 95% of
the Local Activity Center and 75% of the CRA is located
within 500 feet of a transit stop. The City of Dania Beach
requires construction of sidewalks along local, collector,
and arterial roadways as part of the City's site plan review
process of new residential and non-residential
construction. The City requests the addition of bike paths
and bike lanes along all state roads scheduled for
resurfacing or reconstruction.
4. Adequacy of Transportation System for Evacuation
a. Evacuation Routes
No residential development is located on the barrier island.
That portion of the City that is located on the barrier island
is limited to the Florida Atlantic University Sea Tech
Research Facility, a public park, and the public beach.
Those persons of east of Federal Highway that are to be
evacuated during a Hurricane need not cross bridges to the
mainland. Thus, evacuation for a Hurricane event is
significantly less difficult for Dania Beach than it is for most
coastal communities.
b. Transportation and Hazard Constraints on Routes
Again, due to the fact that Dania Beach residents are not
required to cross bridges to the mainland in order to
evacuate there are not the constraints faced by other
communities.
c. Evacuation Time
The Hurricane Evacuation Study conducted by the South
Florida Regional Planning Council estimates that residents
having to evacuate from the barrier islands using Dania
Beach Boulevard could do so in about 3.5 hours. Dania
Beach residents will be able to evacuate in significantly
less time. Again, the Dania Beach hurricane evacuation
time is significantly less as a result of not having to deal
with the bridge constraint issue.
Page 46

5. Compatibility of Fort Lauderdale / Hollywood
International Airport with Adjacent Development in the
City of Dania Beach
Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport is a 1,718-
acre facility that abuts the City of Dania Beach to the west,
south, and east. Properties to the east of the airport are
made up of petroleum tank farms; vacant industrial land, car
rental facilities, manufacturing and warehouses. Properties to
the south and west of the airport are made up of established
single-family, residential neighborhoods. In the case of Dania
Beach:
1) Airport development has been relatively recent in the
City's history,
2) Airport development has occurred subsequent to
development of nearby residential properties, and
3) Airport development is often is incompatible with adjacent
uses.
While acknowledging the airports presence as a major
transportation facility, the City's first concern is too assure
that airport expansion and development does not adversely
affect existing residential development or the city's fiscal
ability to provide municipal services.
Accessibility. Residents of the City and the Tri-County area
can access the airport through a number of modes of
transportation.
Local access to the airport is primarily by road from U.S.
Route 1, which has east west connections via I-595 and
Griffin Road. These two roads in turn provide connections to
Interstate 95 and the Florida Turnpike. Broward County
Transit Route 1 serves the airport. A Tri-Rail connection at
Sportsman's Park in Dania Beach was recently completed. A
shuttle bus will be able to bring passengers to the airport
terminals from the Tri-Rail Depot at Sportsman's Park. With
the convergence of these modes of transportation, the airport
is a primary multi-modal transportation facility.
Page 47
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
B. Existing Transportation System Level of Service and
System Needs
Analysis of the existing transportation levels of service (LOS)
and system needs are based on the following data (91-
5.019(3)(a), FAC): existing design and operating capacities;
most recently available estimates for average daily and peak
hour vehicle trips; existing modal split and vehicle occupancy
rates; existing public transit facilities; population characteristics;
and the existing characteristics of the major trip generators and
attractors within the community.
1. Roadways Network
Table 3-1 depicts the existing roadway network segments
that are approaching capacity, that is, those roads with a V/C
ratio between 0.90 and 0.99, and those segments that are
overcapacity. The figures, including committed trips, are
derived from the Traffic Review and Impact Planning System
(TRIPS) model, which is operated and maintained by Broward
County. Information developed through the model is provided
to the City. Table 3-1 depicts the existing levels of service
based on p.m. peak hour traffic counts derived from the
TRIPS model.

2. Public Transit Network
The City's Plan shall establish the following transportation
level of service (LOS) standards:
Within transit oriented concurrency districts, the
transportation LOS standards, for the purpose of issuing
development orders and permits, are to achieve and
maintain the following by FY 2009:
Southeast District - Achieve headways of 30 minutes
or less on 80% of routes. Establish at least one
neighborhood transit center. Establish at least one
additional bus route. Establish at least one additional
community bus route.
Overall - Increase number of bus stop shelters by
30%.
Page 49
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
Map 2-2.2 displays the coverage currently provided
to the City by BCt and the Community Bus Service.
It is estimated that the City actually enjoys
Functional Coverage rate of greater than 80 percent,
which means that more than 13,500 residents are
served by BCt pursuant to this standard.
C. Projected Transportation System Levels of Service and
System Needs
Rule 9)-5.019(3)(f), FAC, requires an analysis on the projected
transportation LOS and system needs based on the future land
uses shown on the future land use map. Rule 9-3-5.019 (3)(e),
FAC, requires an analysis of projected intermodal needs. This
section addresses the above requirements.
1. Roadways Network
The data and analysis included herein is based on the MPO's
Year 2015 and 203D Long Range Plan Needs Assessment.
Table 3-2 below documents the projected peak hour level of
service for 2015. The volumes in Table 3-2 are based on the
Broward County Land Use Plan which establishes a future land
use map designation for all properties within Broward County.
Because of this land use coordination process, the data in
Table 3-2 also reflects the current City Dania Land Use Plan.

Planning Organization.
Even with these improvements, portions of Griffin, Stirling, and
US 1 will operate at an unacceptable LOS in the year 2030 due
to the following reasons:
1).Griffin and Stirling Road, due to their proximity to I-95, I-
595, and Fort Lauderdale International Airport, serve
primarily east/west commuter traffic in south and central
Broward that neither originates nor terminates in Dania
Beach. U.S. 1, due to it proximity to I-595, Fort
Page 52
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
Lauderdale International Airport, and the cities of Fort
Lauderdale and Hollywood, serves primarily north/south
traffic that neither originates nor terminates in Dania
Beach. Because most of the traffic using U.S. 1, Griffin,
and Stirling are external to Dania Beach, the city has
limited control over the projected increases in traffic on
these facilities.
2).Griffin, Stirling and U.S. 1 are constrained facilities. As
such, additional right-of-way can only be acquired though
condemnation of commercial properties abutting these
roads. Neither FOOT nor the MPO has identified any
funding for this purpose in the current Long Range (20
year) Transportation Plan. Even if funded, the acquisition
of commercial land for roadway expansion along U.S. 1
would result in an substantial loss of tax base, render
many properties unusable, and significantly reduce
redevelopment potential.
3).A previous FOOT proposal to create an alternate U.S. 1 by
extending Dixie Highway from Sheridan Street north to Old
Griffin Road was rejected by the City Commission in the
mid-1990's due to neighborhood impact concerns.
Due to these circumstances, the City is implementing Transit
Oriented Concurrency and works closely with the Broward
County MPO and FDOT to identify alternative transportation
solutions to improve the efficiency of the existing roadway
network and focus on transit improvements to alleviate
existing and potential congestion. The City cannot implement
traffic or transit related improvements without the support
and funding assistance of these agencies.
Policy 4.1 provides for the City to support Broward County's
programs to study constrained roadways so as to provide for
an adequate level of service and to improve mobility.
1. Public Transit Network
Map 2.2 reflects the BCt transit service coverage area in the
City of Dania Beach. Data provided in Table 3-5 demonstrate
that 80% of the total area of the City is served by BCt transit.
Page 53
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach

Population Square # of Bus # of Bus % Area
Mileage Routes Stops Served
27,000 7.8 7 141 80
Source: Broward County Transit Development Plan, 2005-2009
The TOC LOS standards adopted with this Element will further
enhance these facilities.
Another important area of public transit service is to
accommodate the special needs of the transportation
disadvantaged. These needs are documented in the Broward
County Transportation Disadvantaged Service Plan, 2004. The
City of Dania Beach continues to work closely with the MPO
and BCt to maintain and improve the transit level of service in
the City in order to improve overall mobility.
3. Bikeways Network
The summary of projected needs included in this subsection is
based upon the Broward County Bicycle Facilities Network
Plan. The primary need is to develop a bicycle facility network
that will provide access to the majority of trip generators.
In recent years the consideration of bikeways as part of the
roadway design, like landscaping, has gradually become part
of the roadway's design process. However, because bicycle
lanes were rare in all of Brcward County and immediate
connectivity between the few existing facilities was not
financially feasible, a construction by opportunity approach
was utilized to begin development of the county's on-road
bicycle facility network.
As new roads are being constructed, on-road bicycle facilities
are included. Because most bikeway deficiencies are located
within FDOT right-of-way (ie, Dania Beach Boulevard to
Beach), the City cannot implement bikeway system
improvements without the support and financial assistance of
the Florida Department of Transportation.
Page 54
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
Policies 1-11 through 1.16 further the above initiatives as it
relates to improved bikeways.
4. Pedestrian Network
The City requires all new development to include provisions
for sidewalks. As new construction takes place sidewalks are
installed.
S. Railways Network
Projected railway network needs is based on the Tri-County
Rail Master Plan, the Transit Development Plan, Fiscal Year
2004 update, and the Florida Rail System Plan. Planning for
the railway network is different than other transportation
modes as the most of the network is owned and operated by
the private sector. As such, the City has limited input
regarding railroad decisions. FDOT's role is limited to the
"proper maintenance, safety, revitalization, and expansion of
the rail system to assure its continued and increased
availability to respond to statewide mobility needs."
Tri-Rail has completed the Airport Station located at I-95 and
Griffin Road. This facility is linked to the airport, Tri-Rail
shuttle services, and the City Community Bus.
6. Intermodal Facilities
The summary of projected needs included in this subsection is
based on the Transit Needs Assessment (1996), prepared by
Carr Smith Corradino for the Broward County Mass Transit
Division, and the Transit Development Plan (TDP), Fiscal Year
2004 Update, prepared by the Tri-County Commuter Rail
Authority. The following analysis of the projected deficiencies
and needs are focused on terminals, connections, high
occupancy vehicle lanes, and park-and-ride lots.
a. Intermodal facilities of state.
Port Everglades and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood
International Airport needs are respectively addressed in
waterway network and airport network needs. With regard
to heavy rail, there is a continuing need for federal
Page 55
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
subsidies to keep CSX, the FEC, and other rail related
facilities operational.
b. Terminals.
Tri-Rail has completed construction of a train depot in the
Sportsman's Park Development in Dania Beach. This
facility serves the City as well as the airport and the port.
The City will encourage redevelopment in the area to
incorporate mixed uses which will enhance ridership.
c. Connections.
A Major Investment Study (MIS) funded by the FDOT is
currently underway to develop alternatives for an
intermodal connection between the Port and the Airport.
Additionally, the Major Investment Study should identify
the most appropriate technology, anticipating that
potential technologies range from fixed-guideway systems
to "special" public transit buses operating primarily in
mixed traffic with some priority treatment.
D. Maintaining the Adopted Level of Service Standards
Prior to discussing how Dania Beach can maintain the adopted
transportation LOS standards, several caveats are in order. The
transportation system is a function of the previously made land
use decisions. Most of the historical land use decisions impacting
transportation LOS standards in Dania Beach t were made by
other cities, Broward County, and the State of Florida.
These previously made land use decisions include: the location
and intensity of built development and constructed roadways;
the location and intensity of approved but unbuilt (i.e., vested)
development; and public transit investments. Dania Beach and
surrounding cities are infill communities with constrained
roadways. As such, with the exception of public transit
investment, these historical decisions cannot be retracted.
The availability of transportation funding, especially at the
federal level, can greatly influence local government's ability to
maintain the adopted LOS standard. The City works closely
through the Broward County Transportation Planning Technical
Page 56
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
Coordinating Committee and the Broward County toward
supporting level of service Standards.
1. Concurrency Management System (CMS)
Due to the amount of development that occurred in the City
prior to the adoption of CMS requirements and the lack of
available right-of-way for roadway improvements,
constructing roadway improvements to meet the adopted
level of service on all roadways is cost prohibitive.
In order to balance mobility goals with the need for
development and redevelopment in the community, the entire
City was previously included in a Transportation Concurrency
Exception Area that allows infill development even when the
road network does not currently maintain LOS. Broward
County adopted Transit Oriented Concurrency in 2005 and
Dania Beach is incorporating that program into the
Transportation Element.
The City also supports FDOT and MPO efforts to improve Tri-
Rail service to create an attractive alternative for commuters
in the region. The City supports continued improvements in
the system as well as shuttle service to the stations to
improve intermodal connections.
The Broward County MPO Long Range (20 year)
Transportation Plan recommends that Sheridan Street from
U.S. 1 to Dixie Highway should be expanded from four lane to
six lanes. However, no funding for right-of-way or
construction has been identified, and none is expected to be
available (if at all) prior to 2010.
Policies 1.20 and 1.21 incorporate the City's LOS standards.
2. Transportation System Management (TSM)
TSM means improving roads, intersections, and other related
facilities to make the existing transportation system operate
more efficiently. TSM techniques include demand
management strategies, incident management strategies, and
other actions that increase the operating efficiency of the
existing system.
Page 57
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
In lieu of traditional widening and construction, the City
cooperates with the Broward County MPO and FDOT to
identify alternative solutions to eliminate traffic problems. The
City also supports requiring new development to construct
turn lanes at intersection and driveways during the platting
process. Although these improvements do not add through
lanes, they do improve the operating conditions on roadways.
Access management is the control and regulation of spacing
and design of driveways, ramps, medians, median openings,
traffic signals and intersections on arterial and collector roads
to improve safe and efficient traffic flow on the road system.
Access management is implemented through the platting and
site plan process for new developments. While desirable in
most locations, application of access management regulations
can adversely impact redevelopment in the CRA, particularly
along Dania Beach Boulevard.
Computerization of signals on roadways has been recognized
as one of the most effective ways to improve traffic flows.
Broward County Traffic Engineering is responsible for
managing all the traffic signals in the County. Through
participation in the TCC and MPO meetings, the City supports
all efforts by the County to computerize traffic signals.
3. Transportation Demand Management (TDM)
TDM means strategies and techniques that can be used to
increase the efficiency of the transportation system. Demand
management focuses on ways of influencing the amount and
demand for transportation by encouraging alternatives to the
single-occupant automobile and by altering peak hour travel
demand. These strategies and techniques include: ridesharing
programs, flexible work hours, telecommuting, shuttle
services, and parking management.
The report entitled Proposed Transportation Demand
Management Options prepared by the Broward County
Transportation Planning Division in cooperation with the FDOT
addresses TDM programs. A summary of its findings is
addressed below.
Page 58
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
a. Ridesharing programs.
Ridesharing is a form of transportation, other then public
transit, in which more than one person shares the use of
the vehicle, such as a car or van, to make a trip.
Ridesharing requires only moderate densities at the home-
end of trips and a common work destination; long
commutes are actually conducive to ridesharing since time
lost in picking up other passengers is balanced by real cost
savings on the commute itself.
The ridesharing program Broward County is managed by
Gold Coast Commuter Services (GCCS), a FDOT regional
commuter assistance program. The GCCS provides
computerized rideshare matching service free of charge to
area residents and employers.
Transportation Element Policies 2.6 and 2.7 addresses
ridesharing and other TDM strategies as a means of
increasing the vehicle occupancy rate.
b. Flexible work hours
Broward County still needs to establish more viable TDM
programs to modify peak hour travel demand and reduce
the number of vehicle miles traveled per capita within the
community and region. Flexible working hours' policy
needs to be promoted more widely.
b. Telecommuting
It is used in many offices, but is still needed to be more
widely publicized to encourage greater use.
c. Shuttle services
This strategy needs to be implemented not only to the
airports but also to daily commuting demands.
d. Congestion Management Plan (CMP)
Broward County has completed a Congestion Management
Plan (CMP). The strategies developed within the
Congestion Management Plan give priority to corridors
Page 59
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
serving the urban infill area. The CMP includes the
following:
• Establishment of measures and standards to assess
mobility patterns and the performance of roadways and
transit systems;
• Identification of congested corridors and areas;
• Identification of short and long range transportation
strategies;
• Establishment of a monitoring process to assess the
effectiveness of the congestion management strategies.
4. The Strategic Intermodal System (SIS) / Florida
Intrastate Highway System (FIHS)
The SIS/FINS is designed for interregional and intrastate
functions. Even though most of the traffic on the SIS/FINS
today is local traffic making trips less than 25 miles in length,
it is still vital for the City, FDOT and Broward County to
establish methods of monitoring the impacts on the system
and strategies to facilitate local traffic to use alternatives to
the system to protect its interregional function.
a. SIS/FIHS impacts monitoring report.
The average annual daily traffic and volume to capacity
ratios for the two SIS/FINS segments within Dania Beach
for 1991 had a volume to capacity ratio of less than 1.0.
B 1997, this had changed and the volume to capacity
Y 9
ratios were 1.69 for I-95 and 1.27 for I-595.
b. Strategies to relieve traffic from the SIS/FIHS.
Transportation Element Policies 1.6 and 1.28 identifies
strategies to help relieve SIS/FINS traffic. These strategies
are premised on the assumption that improving roads
parallel to SIS/FINS roads will make those roads more
attractive as a means of travel. These strategies include
improving roadway and public transit LOS, double tracking
of the South Florida Rail Corridor, implementation of the
Page 60
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
congestion management plan, and use of transit-oriented
design
Additional strategies relate to public transit. These include
enhancing feeder bus service to Tri-Rail, expanding
community/municipal bus service, improving access to
transit, and public education.
Another strategy addresses implementation of an
intelligent transportation system (ITS). ITS is the use of
technology, in whatever form, to assist motorists in the
safe and efficient use of the transportation system. It
includes the computerized traffic signal system, a new ITS
control center for Broward County, the recently completed
I-595 Changeable Message Sign System, variable
messages signs for the bridge crossings of the intracoastal
waterway, cameras for surveillance and vehicle detection,
incident management, emergency management, motorist
information system via the use of radio on the Florida
Turnpike, and transit vehicle locator system, Tri-Rail
information system, and so on.
S. Transportation Concurrency Exception Areas ("TCEAs")
The purpose of a TCEA is to reduce the adverse impact
transportation concurrency may have on urban infill
development and redevelopment as well as the achievement
of other goals and policies of the state comprehensive plan,
such as promoting the development of public transportation
and encouraging appropriate infill development and
redevelopment to reduce reliance on single occupancy
passenger vehicles. Under limited circumstances, it allows
exceptions to the transportation concurrency requirement in
specifically defined urban areas of a jurisdiction.
Dania Beach was previously included within the Broward
County TCEA. Broward County has adopted Transit Oriented
Concurrency and Dania Beach is incorporating that program
into the Transportation Element.
6. Transit Oriented Concurrency
The City is including the Transit Oriented Concurrency
program to replace what previously was the Transportation
Page 61
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
Concurrency Exception Area to address traffic concurrency
issues within the community. Transit Oriented Concurrency is
a compact geographic area which includes the entire City and
its existing network of roads and other means of
transportation. A level of service standard has been
established for the district affecting the City of Dania Beach.
The program is incorporating a previously adopted program
by Broward County and includes the Southeast District and
the Port/Airport District as it relates to the City of Dania
Beach.
E. Consistency between the Future Land Use Element and
Transportation Systems and with Other Plans
This section addresses Rule 93-5.019(3)(d), FAC, which requires
an analysis of the compatibility/consistency of the future land
use and transportation elements; Rule 93-5.019(3)(g), FAC,
which requires an analysis that considers the
compatibility/consistency of the Transportation Element with the
policies and guidelines of other transportation plans; and Rule
93-5.019(3)(h) and (I), FAC, which requires an analysis of
compatibility/consistency with other elements of the
Comprehensive Plan.
1. The Future Land Use Element
Internal consistency between the Future Land Use Element
(FLUE) and the Transportation Element is maintained through
objectives and policies in both the FLUE and the
Transportation Element. The FLUE includes a number of
policies regarding transportation issues that are consistent
with those in the Transportation Element such as:
• The location of land uses in relation to transportation
facilities.
• Analyzing the impacts of land use amendments on
transportation facilities.
• Requiring dedication of right-of-way during the
development approval process
The Transportation Element also included policies regarding
land use issues that are consistent with those in the FLUE
such as;
Page 62
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
• Impact analysis of transportation improvements on
existing/proposed land uses.
• Provision of adequate on site parking for all land uses.
2. Broward County Land Use Plan
The Broward County Charter established the Broward County
Planning Council. The Planning Council is responsible for
preparing a countywide land use plan, known as the Broward
County Land Use Plan (BCLUP), for adoption by the Board of
County Commissioners. The City future land use element and
map as well as any amendments must be consistent with the
BCLU P.
Through certification of future land use elements subsequent
to a determination of compliance by the Florida Department
of Community Affairs, consistency between future land use
elements and the transportation system are assured.
The Broward County Planning Council, has exclusive
jurisdiction over the Broward County Trafficways Plan, a right-
of-way identification map. To accommodate the impacts of
new development, right-of-way is required from developing
parcels to provide for an adequate regional roadway network.
A dedication for at least half of the roadway width that the
Trafficways Plan calls for is normally required at the platting
stage. No plat of lands lying within Broward County, either in
the incorporated or unincorporated areas, may be recorded in
the Official Records prior to approval by the County
Commission.
3. Long Range Transportation Plan
The Long Range Transportation Plan ("LRTP") is the primary
source for identifying priority projects for inclusion in the
countywide Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and
guides the expenditure of federal, state, and local
transportation funds. It provides a coordinated planning
effort to mitigate traffic congestion, minimize reconstruction
of existing facilities, and allow for adjustment of growth
management policies and transportation strategies. The LRTP
consists of five major sections: Goals, Objectives, and
Evaluation Criteria; Financial Resources; Needs Assessment;
Cost Feasible Plan; and Public Involvement. The Broward
Page 63
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
Urban Area Transportation Study Year 2030 Transportation
Plan ("TV) represents the currently adopted LRTP. The Year
2030 TP's objectives and policies are consistent with the
provisions of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency
Act of 1991 (ISTEA), under which 15 specific factors were
identified.
One of its goals is to provide a balanced multi-modal
transportation system with a mixture of roadways and transit
services that provides for the local and regional movement of
P
people and goods, which is consistent with the purpose of the
TE.
The Year 2030 TP as well as the Year 2030 TP served as the
basis for some of the data and analysis used in the
development of this Element. Further, the Year 2030 TP was
reviewed for consistency with this Transportation Element.
4. Year 2030 Cost Feasible Plan (' CFP").
The Year 2030 UP is a transportation plan that identifies
major capacity-enhancing improvements recommended for
implementation based on projected fund availability. The CFP
serves as the basis for funding of the county's roadway and
transit programs, bicycle plan, pedestrian plan, and seaport
and airport master plans.
S. Florida Department of Transportation's Adopted Work
Program
Dania Beach is in the jurisdiction of the FDOT's District 4;
therefore, the FOOT District 4's Work Program for Fiscal Year
2007 through 2011 contains Dania Beach's projects.
Priorities in the 5-year Adopted Work Program are determined
by the MPO and are the direct result of the long range
planning process. Projects on a priority list submitted to FOOT
for inclusion in the Work Program must appear in the Long
Range Plan. The Long Range Plan, in turn, is formulated with
the goals and objectives consistent with the Transportation
Element and ISTEA's 15 suggested planning factors. The
Work Program, once adopted, forms the basis of the new TIP.
Page 64
Transportation Element City of Dania Beach
6. Transportation Improvement Program (TIP)
The TIP is a comprehensive listing of transportation projects
in Broward County scheduled for funding in the next five
years. It represents the cooperative integration of plans by
municipalities, the FDOT, the MPO and implementing
agencies. Projects are initially identified as part of the Long
Range Planning Process. This is a prerequisite for inclusion on
an MPO priority list. Priority Lists are then submitted to FDO.
Each year in the Annual Work Program, FDOT funds these
priorities identified by the MPO to the extent possible. The
Annual Work Program in turn forms the state and federal
component of the TIP. The priority list is then updated to
reflect these funding actions and a new list is submitted each
year to FDOT.

Coastal Management Element City of Dania Beach
I. 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.
II.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 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. The high hazard area is located east of
Southeast 5th 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 recreational, and community facilities types.
In addition, approximately 136 acres are 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 Future Land Use Element. This inventory reflects
approximately fifty (50) acres as industrial uses, employment
center and transportation and would represent the area east of
the Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport with
approximately 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
Page 2
Coastal Management Element City of Dania Beach
Dania Beach. This will provide a water related independent
research facility for students and faculty studying oceanographic
matters.
There are other water related independent activities 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 areas are
stressed but all will require dredge and fill Permitting by the
Florida Department of Environmental Regulations, Army Corps of
Engineers and Broward County Department of Planning and
Environmental Protection.
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.
The proposed future land uses have no effect on coastal flooding
within the area as that primarily is related to the beach front
which is a public beach facility and will continue to be maintained
as such by the City of Dania Beach.
The historic resources have been identified on the coastal
Page 3
Coastal Management Element City of Dania Beach
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 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 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 Development of
Environmental Protection is good. There are no point or
non-point source pollution problems within the estuarine area.
The eastern area 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
Protection, the goals and policies and objectives of the South
Florida Regional Planning Council Regional Policy Plan, the South
Florida Water Management District's criteria as it relates to
stormwater runoff, and locally the Broward County Water
Resources Management Division, the Broward County
Department of Planning and Environmental Protection, and the
City of Dania Beach maintain programs including stormwater
runoff, wetlands protection among others which will maintain or
Page 4
Coastal Management Element City of Dania Beach
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-point source pollution. Also, the
Broward County Department of Planning and Environmental
Protection regulates any storage tank requirements locally and
the Florida Department of Protection has this responsibility on a
regional level. Those agencies will require that all storage tank
construction be in accordance with their 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 AlA (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 up to handle build out flows.
The area north of the Dania Cut-Off Canal and east of U.S.1 is
substantially developed. The area north of Northeast 10`" Street
Page 5
Coastal Management Element City of Dania Beach
has been acquired by Broward County for an airport runway and
de-annexed from the City. 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 three (3) categories: Plan A, which
calls for the evacuation of all residents east of the Southeast
5th Avenue in the event hurricane winds are in the 74 mph to
110 mph rate (Category 1 - 2). Plan B extends the evacuation
line from Southeast 5th Avenue to US1 and this is for a
hurricane with winds in excess of 111 to 130 mph. The
hurricane vulnerability zones within the City of Dania Beach
include three areas: (1) Between the Atlantic Ocean and
Southeast 5th Avenue (Broward County's Plan A); (2) between
Southeast 51h Avenue and US1, (Broward County Evacuation
Plan B); and (3) Between 1-95 and USS (Broward County's
Plan C). The evacuees are afforded opportunities to move
inland with relatives or friends, leave the area, move to
interior hotels/motels, 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 US1. 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 approximately 1,500
Page 6
Coastal Management Element City of Dania Beach
residents. 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. 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
heeled constraints on the evacuation routes, which are
primarily the 1-95 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;
Harbourtowne marina; and limited residential and commercial
uses.
3. Beach and Dune Systems
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 original restoration
occur in 1976 and a second restoration 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, who is responsible for the project, indicates
Page 7
Coastal Management Element City of Dania Beach
that Dania Beach will benefit from this work. The Hollywood
Beach restoration occurred in 1979 and 1990 and Dania
Beach will benefit from this restoration over time. The
Broward County Department of Planning and Environmental
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 the launching of small crafts. Houston Park
Marina 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
tourists 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.
S. Structures with a History of Repeated Damage
There are no structures with a history of repeated damage in
coastal storms. 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:
Page 8
Coastal Management Element City of Dania Beach
a. U.S. 1 Federal Highway
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) lane facility that presently exists
from Sheridan Street on the south to Dania Beach
Boulevard on the north. The facility was previously on the
Broward County Trafficways Plan and requires an 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/Dania Cut-Off Canal Bridge
This facility is located at Old Griffin Road and US1 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 with 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
Page 9
Coastal Management Element City of Dania Beach
deep canal that travels the City from east to west. It is
utilized for boat traffic and drainage.
S. Beach and Dune Conditions
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. REQUIREMENTS
QU REMENTS FOR COASTAL MANAGEMENT GOALS,
OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Coastal Management Element of the Comprehensive Plan is
intended to regulate development activities that might damage or
destroy coastal resources.
Objective I

SUBJECT: VC-18-08: The City of Dania Beach is requesting to vacate SW Park
Street right-of-way, which is located south of City Hall, 100 West
Dania Beach Boulevard.
VACATION
To vacate SW Park Street right-of-way.
The City recently purchased the 109 Park Street property located south of City Hall. The
vacation of SW Park Street will create a continuous property allowing for greater design
flexibility.
The City has contacted all public utilities and have received the following comments:
• Comcast — has existing/active cable attached to the utility poles within the limits of
this project. No objection to vacation provided a utility easement is established for
the existing lines, or the City pays for the cost of relocating lines. Such cost will be
$13,803,23.
• BellSouth/AT&T — No objection to the vacation or right-of-way, however the cost of
removal of the existing facilities must be paid by before vacation can begin. Such
cost will be $2,182.99.
• Teco Peoples Gas — has facilities within the referenced area to be vacated. No
objection to this vacation providing a utility easement is incorporated in the replat, or
the applicant will pay for the relocation or replacement of these facilities. Such cost
will be S2,200.00.
• Florida Power & Light — FLIP cannot abandon the existing easements until such time
as arrangements have been made to remove its facilities at the Customer's expense
and adequate easement is provided necessary to relocate any existing customer's
services. Such cost will be $3,824.08.
• Broward Sheriff's Office — No objections.
• Dania Beach Fire Marshal — No objections. Do not anticipate any negative effects on
Fire Department access or responses.
• Public Services — No objection to vacating the road. Cost to relocate the utilities will
be included in the library budget.
Based on the projected cost identified above, the total cost for relocation of existing utilities
will be $22,010.30.

011 �P
REQUEST: VA-44-08: The applicant, Geraldine Hughes, is requesting a
variance for the placement of a generator located at 4910 SW
32nd Avenue.
PROPERTY INFORMATION
ZONING: RM — Residential Multi-family, Broward County
LAND USE DESIGNATION: Low-Medium (10) Residential
VARIANCE
To allow a generator to be located approximately 6 inches from the side lot line;
code requires a minimum 10 foot side setback.
The applicant is requesting the above variance to install a 2 foot wide generator in
the side yard of her townhouse. The distance between the residence and the side
lot line is 3.1 feet and therefore the applicant cannot meet the 10 foot side setback
requirement. The applicant's lot, where the generator is proposed, abuts an area of
common open space. Due to site restraints, the applicant would be unable to meet
the required rear setback if the generator were to be relocated to the rear yard. The
proposed location for the generator, in the north side yard, is the farthest possible
location from any other residential unit. Further, the location for the generator is
approximately 30 feet from the closest point of the pool deck in the common area.
The generator's noise level is 60 decibels at 23 feet which is less than the maximum
code allows of 70 decibels at 23 feet. Other than the reduced setback, the proposed
generator meets all other code requirements.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD RECOMMENDATION
On June 18, 2008 the Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval of the
variance.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
At the discretion of the City Commission.

industrial and research uses which are conducted within completely enclosed buildings and which have
limited impact outside of a building.
2. Permitting Uses (18.20)
These office/warehouse condos are intended for small marine related office, research, product
development and testing, engineering development and marketing development as outlined in Section
18.20 of the Zoning Code.
3. Prohibited Uses (18.30)
No prohibited uses are intended to be located in this facility.

Green Oak, LLC
November 14, 2007
5. Required Conditions (18.50)

back from or onto a public street.
(d) No user shall produce smoke, harsh glare, or visual hazards, nor shall any use produce electronic
interference with navigation signals or radio communication between aircraft and the Fort
Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
(e) Written notice from the Broward County Aviation Department shall be provided stating the
proposed site plan and height of the structure present no problems to that department.
(f) This application will require site plan review by the Planning and Zoning Advisory Board and
approval by the City Commission prior to issuance of a building permit.
6. Area Requirements (18.60)
(a) The proposed building does not exceed 62 feet or 5 stores in height.
(b) Buildings, structures and impervious surfaces do not exceed 70% of the total lot area pursuant to

This development shall be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Advisory Board and approved by the
City Commission prior to the issuance of any building permits.

TO: Ivan Pato, City Manager
FROM: Corinne Lajoie, AICP, Principal Planner��5
REQUEST: SP-74-07: The applicant, Green Oak, LLC., is requesting site
plan approval for the construction of an office/warehouse
building located at 2960 SW 23 Terrace.
SITE PLAN
To allow the construction of a 33,000 square foot office/warehouse.
PROPERTY INFORMATION
ZONING: Industrial, Research, Office, Marine ([ROM)
LAND USE DESIGNATION: Industrial
The subject property is south of State Road 84 and west of Ravenswood Road. It is
currently vacant and has significant vegetation on site. The proposed site plan
shows 2 points of ingress/egress on SW 23 Terrace with an additional point of
egress at the south east corner of the properly, through private property via a 24 foot
access easement which will provide access to Ravenswood Road.
The property owner to the east, where the access easement exists, has submitted
an application to vacate this easement. Vacation of the access easement by the
neighboring property owner will require additional staff review of the Green Oak site
plan and will necessitate changes to the site plan.
At the Planning and Zoning Board meeting on June 18, 2008 the applicant (Mr.
Oberholtzer) and neighboring property owner (Mr. Kunzig) submitted a notarized,
joint letter of agreement stating many conditions, including the following related to
this site plan:
1. The west side of the above mentioned easement will be used for emergency
vehicles only.
2. There will be a sliding gate installed, that will be closed at all times, with a
knox box.
The applicant has not provided signage detail as part of the site plan; therefore
signage will be reviewed separately as building permits are applied for. The
applicant is able to meet all zoning requirements regarding the project in question.
The site plan was reviewed by the Fire Marshal, Public Services, the City's
landscape consultant and the Planning Division. The following items must be
addressed by the applicant:
1. Provide a sliding gate and knox box at the south east corner of property on site
plan, per agreement with neighboring property owner prior to issuance of a
building permit (Planning Division).
2. Applicant must pay $17,878 for Tree Mitigation fees prior to issuance of a
building permit (Landscape Consultant).

Subject: Green Oak Warehouse review of latest revisions
George,
Just a few items, we are mostly there:
1. Per our previous discussion, canopy removal needs to be accounted for in specimen tree removals. Please
indicate the canopy removed of specimen trees and include this additional canopy in your calculations.
2. It appears that with the trees you added to the plans to accommodate canopy replacement for the non-
specimen trees, that there is no additional room on the site for additional trees. The shortfall can be made
up by paying into the tree preservation fund for an equivalent amount.
3. Please submit a revised set of landscape plans to the City that shows the list of trees of existing trees (that
you provided to me via fax). The list needs to include both specimen and non-specimen trees, square feet
of canopy for all trees and indicate which trees are being removed. Based on the faxes and CAD drawings
you sent to me last week, no changes will need to be made to plant quantities and locations.
4. When the plans are received by the City, I can approve them likely on the same day.
5. Please note that the following payments will be required prior to issuance of a tree removal license:
a) Tree canopy replacement payment:
Calculate the amount by taking the canopy shortfall (the canopy of the specimen trees you are
removing in square feet), and divide this total by 300 (the credit given for a replacement tree), this
will give you the number of replacement trees you need to compensate for.
To determine the value of these trees, take the average plant finder cost for a representative tree
and multiply by 2.7. 1 would recommend using live oak for this calculation (economical) and I
would value it at$100 for a suitable replacement-sized tree. Thus, you would need to pay $270
for every 300 square feet of the canopy shortfall.
b) Specimen tree payment:
Your appraised value of$17,878 is accepted. This amount may be reduced by the amount
calculated in item a) above, since that payment to replace the canopy also replaces some of the
dollar-value of the specimen trees.
c) Relocation bond:
Three royal palms are proposed for relocation. Per City Code, a bond is required for the
replacement of these trees, should the relocations fail. To calculate this fee, use the PlanFinder
cost for a replacement palm x 2.7. For your site, a replacement sabal palm (economical) is $100.
Therefore the bond for relocation for this project will be set at$810.
Any questions, just give me a call!

Subject: RE: kunzig plat access easement { kIAR 70�8
Jodi and Connie, I p)o' rming
This email is in reply to your request for information about details related to the easements
recorded on the KUNZI6 PARK Plat (005-UP-90).
The KUNZI6 PARK Plat was approved by the Broward County County Commission on 7/3/1990.
County approval was subject to certain conditions. Ravenswood Road was (and remains) a collector on
the Broward County Trafficways Plan. Accordingly, the developer of the KUNZI6 PARK Plat was
required to restrict access to a 50-foot opening at the south property line and to dedicate additional
right-of-way and easements as conditions of approval.
Staff Recommendation 4) required the developer to:
4) Provide the following access easements on Parcel "A":
a. A 50 foot wide x 50 foot deep ingress/egress easement on Ravenswood Road at the
50 foot opening. Dimensions may be modified to more closely approximate the actual
driveway dimensions. The design to be approved by the Traffic Engineering and
Engineering Divisions.
b. A 24 foot wide access easement cnnecting the above access easement to the west
plat limits.: Design to be approved by the Engineering and Traffic Engineering
Divisions.
These easements were specifically required to proved a shared driveway access onto Ravenswood
Road for the property to the south and west.
The easements were delineated and labeled properly on the plat, and the plat was recorded in Plat
Book 145, Page 29. The drawing portion of the recorded plat is pasted below:

The dedication language included the following statement: "THE EASEMENTS SHOWN HEREON ARE
HEREBY DEDICATED TO THE PERPETUAL USE OF THE PUBLIC FOR THE PURPOSES
INDICATED
As a result, the easements along the south property line of the KUNZIG PARK Plat is available to
provide legal access to the properties adjoining on the south (RAVENSWOOD ROAD BUSINESS
PARK PB 174-116 - FOLIO: 504220560010) and on the west (FOLIO: 504220020430).
However,the property to the south has been platted as the RAVENSWOOD ROAD BUSINESS
PARK (PB 174-116). County approval of this plat also included requirements to restrict access and
dedicate right-of-way for Ravenswood Road. The RAVENSWOOD ROAD BUSINESS PARK was not
allowed any direct access to Ravenswood Road because the abutting access easements recorded on
the KUNZIG PARK Plat provide this access.
HOWEVER it should be noted that the driveway connection into the easement also has a restriction
over the first 100 feet west of Ravenswood Road. The NVAL that extends along the north plat
boundary for 100 feet. The driveway connection into the easement must be west of the NVAL (a
marked copy of the plat is pasted below):

Corinne, Department
I have gotten several calls & email messages about the access easements dedicated by
the Kunzig Park Plat. I tried to send you the attached email message, but I messed up
your email address and it was returned. As you will read in my email, I was confirming
that the purpose of this easement was to share access with the property to the south
and west.
I thought the question was really about access for the property to the south,
RAVENSWOOD ROAD BUSINESS PARK (PB 174-116).
But 2 weeks ago, I was sent a copy of a site plan for the project to the west (Office
Warehouse Condos For Green Oak, LLC). I have attached a copy for your reference.
The design of the Green Oak Office site plan is not really under the jurisdiction of the
County. However, I believe that the proposed one-way connection to the access
easement will cause unintended traffic circulation problems within the access easement.
I noticed on the 2008 aerial that the property to the south, RAVENSWOOD ROAD
BUSINESS PARK (PB 174-116), is now under construction. This project is supposed to
use the access easement on the Kunzig Park Plat for access onto Ravenswood Road.
The Kunzig Park Plat access onto Ravenswood Rood is a 2-way driveway. I believe that
vehicles will attempt to enter the Green Oak Office project from the Kunzig Park Plot via
the Kunzig Park Plat access and will get trapped, or will drive against the flow of the one-
way driveway shown on the site plan.
To avoid this problem, I think that the east end of the parking lot on the Green Oak
Office site plan should be changed to provide a 2-way connection.
I hope this information will assist you.
