10. 1 Request by Kathy Kelly to address the Commission regarding the
lake owned by Michael L. Thomas.
Kathy Kelly commented on problems pertaining to the truck
movement on the Thomas parcel at the lake on Bryan Road. She
described the situation of up to twenty trucks moving fast along
dirt roads spilling debris and reported that several residents
of the mobile home park had to go to the hospital because of the
dust created . Mrs . Kelly asked the Commission to do what is
best for the health and welfare of the Dania residents within
the area of the lake.
Commissioner Hirsch suggested enforcement of state law regarding
proper truck covers . Commissioner Stevens said the sweeper
should also be curbed. Mayor McElyea said he has already called
the D.O.T. and had an inspector sent out there . Vice Mayor Cook
expressed gratitude to Captain Hernandez for dispatching
motorcycle policemen to the area in response to her call about
the speeding trucks.
Captain Hernandez reported on what is being done to protect the
citizens and pledged the full cooperation of the B.S.O.
Ron Coddington, a representative of one of the trucking firms
supplying the fill for the Thomas lake, stepped forward to
respond to the complaints. He estimated it would take
approximately fifty days to complete the 30, 000 trips necessary
and said they are working very closely with B.S.O. and Port
Everglades security and with D.O.T. in Port Everglades . He said
he now understood the residents ' concerns and promised to do
everything possible to alleviate their problems.

regarding the airport noise.
q Dr. Preacher reported the approval of the airport plans to

Commission and Airport Authority to get a guaranteed curfew from
ii Regular Commission Meeting 8 February 14, 1989
8
11: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 a.m. to be in effect by May loth, when they �
start to use 1331 continuously for an estimated 75 days . He
also asked for a birm or sound deflector in the southeast corner
of the airport.
Commissioner Bertino asked the City Manager to agenda the curfew
for the next meeting and have the City Attorney work out all the
strategies to set down the city 's posturing and steps necessary
to force an imposed curfew.
Jim Reynolds, of the Broward Aviation Department, apologized for
any inconveniences that will be caused in those 75 days, but
explained that they are unavoidable and described the steps
taken to keep them at a minimum. Mr. Reynolds said, due to the
fact that this is one of the key airports in the country, having
interconnect flights with 22 other airports and is also the only
airport in Broward County that has air carrier operations, they
need to operate on a 24 hour basis.
I �
Asked by Commissioner Hirsch if they would be willing to
cooperate with the citizens and grant some shutdown time, Mr.
j Reynolds said he would pass that request along to the Aviation
Department Director, Mr. Godfrey. Commissioner Hirsch suggested
that the City Manager and City Attorney compose a letter
requesting consideration of a curfew to be directed to Mr.
Godfrey. Commissioner Stevens suggested that the City Manager
research other major airports and include a list of those that
enforce a curfew in the letter. Commissioner Bertino agreed
that such a letter should be sent, but said he still wants the
City Attorney to present a definitive outline of the City 's
legal position on the issue at the next meeting.
11. ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS
w-
11. 1 City Manager Flatley asked for Commission direction regarding
appearing before the County Commission on Monday, February 27th,
on behalf of the City as the owner of the 10 acres in West Lake
subject to the new ordinance for environmentally sensitive
lands.
Growth Management Director Leeds described the tracts of land
that will be considered by the County Commission. He explained
n.r.a. (natural resource areas ) and e.s. l . (environmentally
sensitive lands ) or l .a.p.c. ( local areas of particular concern)
categories.
With regard to the e .s . l . category, Mr. Leeds described the
county environmental review process and how it will affect
unplatted e.s . l . areas, expressing particular concern about the
areas east of the airport designated employment center because
that is the most tax base intensive property in the city. Mr.
{ Leeds said all the affected property owners have been notified
1 by the County, but he still plans to call them, inform them of
the County Commission meeting, and give them an opportunity to
come to the meetingand explain why the have a P y y problem with
9) this if they have a problem with it .
1 Growth Management Director Leeds , explaining the third category
which is the purchase of property through the County bond issue,
reported that the area south of Dania Beach and east of 5th
Ave. , which includes the city park site, might be on that list I
and the Commission will want to consider its position on that if
the bond issue passes .
Mr. Leeds reported Staff 's intention to document the City 's
concerns about the degradation of the tax base with the County
Commission, having already done so with the Planning Council .
�{ 1
Commission concerns about the potential loss of tax base through
purchase or negative impact on tax base through review were
discussed. Commissioner Hirsch expressed concern about the time
factor. It was noted that the Planning Council felt the whole i

I
concept needed more study and Vice Mayor Cook said she had
appointed a study committee, but it 's now in the hands of the
County.
A motion was made by Vice Mayor Cook , seconded by Commissioner
Hirsch to allow City Manager Flatley to attend the County
ICommission meeting and state the position of the City of Dania.
It was agreed that a message to balance the economic concerns
against the environmental concerns would be conveyed to the
County Commission. Commissioner Bertino spelled out the City 's
position as "not against the County buying endangered lands , but
against the County degradating those dollars that could come in
to the City if that land were allowed to develop to its highest
and best use under the present zoning classification. And if
the County does remove that from the City ' s tax rolls or
downzone it through review of what can be built on that
1 particular parcel of property, then those differences in dollars
which are the City 's tax property rights shall be made up by the
j County and shall be paid to the City ad infinitum into the
future. " Commissioner Hirsch added the point that "the tax base
isn 't just for one year, it 's reoccurring; a sale is one thing,
but a tax base is forever. "
City Manager Flatley agreed to convey that message to the County
Commission.
