Commissioners: Bob Anton
Walter Duke
Albert C. Jones
City Manager: Bob Baldwin
City Attorney: Tom Ansbro

Commissioner Duke arrived at 7:01 p.m.
Nicki Satterfield, Acting Finance Director, presented a PowerPoint overview of the final
proposed budget, which is attached to and incorporated into these minutes.
Commissioner Jones arrived at 7:06 p.m.
3. Public Hearings
Mayor Castro stated in accordance with Florida Statutes, Section 200.065 (2)(e)1, the first
substantive issue to be discussed shall be the millage rate prior to the City adopting its final
budget. For fiscal year 2010, the City of Dania Beach tentatively adopted, on September 15,
2009, a millage rate of 5.8579 which represents an increase of 0% over the rolled-back rate of
5.8579, in order to fund the General Fund budget. Further in March 2005, the voters approved
the issuance of General Obligation Bonds. The debt service millage rate for FY 2010 is 0.1514.
The Commission will discuss the millage rate first, and then open the hearing to the public for
comments on that matter.
Mayor Castro opened the Public Hearing.
Janice Reed, 205 NE I" Court, requested that Frost Park remain open on Monday evenings. She
provided a list of people who want the facility to remain open.
Kristen Jones, Director of Parks and Recreation, noted the instructor of Jazzercise agreed to
change the class from Monday evening to Wednesday evening. She also noted that the Boy
Scouts agreed to move to Wednesday evening.
Scott Budd, 235 SE 8`h Street, questioned who would certify that the lifeguard towers are stable
once they are retrofitted.
Dean Moss, Beach Supervisor, noted the towers came from California, but they are used
throughout the country. The company that works on the towers will certify them.
Commissioner Duke and Vice-Mayor McElyea noted they are good towers.
Mr. Budd indicated they are probably not safe and asked that the manufacturer approve them
after they are repaired. He questioned the purchase of a 4x4 truck for the beach.
Mr. Moss responded that the truck eliminates the need to be in an office all day, and provides
him the opportunity to spend more time on the beach. Also, if someone is injured it is difficult to
transport them with the present ATV vehicle. He noted the towers are not grounded, so during a
lightning storm the lifeguards can remain on the beach in the truck, as opposed to going inside
the office.
Mr. Budd indicated that beach revenues have disintegrated over the years. He said that having 3
guards on the beach is unacceptable. Mr. Budd said he sees the demise of the beach, and there
are other priorities that can be cut other than the lifeguards.
Christine Budd, 235 SE 8`h Street, noted there are 4 places on the beach with riptides, and our
lifeguards made 8 saves in one day. She said tourists come here for the beach and they need to
be safe. Ms. Budd noted that in her opinion, we need 4 lifeguards during peak season and 3 on
weekdays.
Seeing as there was no one else to speak, Mayor Castro closed the Public Hearing.

Duke.

firefighters and keep the parks open, but this is a bad economy and some people are having a
hard time making ends meet.
Commissioner Jones noted that during his campaign he said that he would not increase taxes, so
he will vote against the budget. He said that the increased cost is high for property owners.

what raise the cost to taxpayers. These fees must be increased in order to recover costs to the
