Commissioner Houston advised the commissioners that he had
been informed that the owners of the golf course on Stirling
Road were negotiating for the purchase of ten acres adjacent
to the golf course for the expansion of the course. This ten
acres is within the city limits. Sometime ago the commission
passed an ordinance establishing the right-of-way for the ex-
tension of 12th Avenue, from Stirling Road to Broward Road,
this right-of-wayto be 35 feet. This is a section line road
as well as the west city limits. If the golf course is extend-
ed as planned it will take in the right-of-way for this street.
I feel that the owners of the golf course should be made aware
of the fact as we are going to have to do something right away
about this street as the 'new Collins school is going to be
ready to open soon. The County Commission will have to obtain
the right of way for the west side of .this street as it is not
in the city limits.
Mayor Eby suggested that Attorney Walden be authorized to con-
tact the owners of the golf course and make them aware of the
fact and to negotiate with them for the right-of-way, ss we
have to get it, even if we have to go through condemnation
proceedings.
Attorney Walden advised that Ordinance No. 372 passed on final
reading the 18th of March, 1957 established the right-of-way
for the extension of 12th Avenue, from Stirling Road to Broward
Road. It was a part of the street widening program for the
City of Denis.
It was agreed by all commissioners preset t to authorize Attorney
Walden to negotiate with the owners of the golf' course for the
right of way for the extension of 12th Avenue, and if no agree-
ment can be reached, to start oondemnation proceedings.
Commissioner Houston advised the commission that Mr. George '
Polera, a member of the County Planning and Zoning Board had
advised him that a request for industrial zoning for property .
between the west city limits of Dania and the Seaboard Railway
was on the agenda at their meeting tonight for a public hear-
ing. Inasmuch as we have been considering annexing this area
he thought the commission would like to have a voice in the
proposed change. The people that own homes in this area do not
want industrial zoning.
Commissioner Houston .wss authorized to attend this hearing and
advise the board that the City Commission wishes the zoning to
remain as it is.
There being no further business, on motion and vote, the meeting
adjourned.
