3. Presentation of Proposed Millage and Budget for FY 2010/2011
City Manager Baldwin noted this is our 3Td Budget meeting. He explained that when staff
presented the proposed Budget on July 26, 2010, he recommended no property tax increase for
FY 2010/2011. The Commission agreed to set a proposed millage rate of 6.4820. City Manager
Baldwin stated that on August 28, 2010 a second Budget Workshop was held, at which time the
Commission decided to lower property taxes and make modifications to the proposed Budget in
line with reducing taxes and the Ad Valorem millage to 5.9998 mills. The Commission directed
administration to find further cuts in the proposed Budget to reduce taxes. Subsequently,
modifications were made in order to reduce the City's millage. He indicated that once the
Commission sets the millage rate tonight, it can be lowered but not increased.
Mark Bates, Director of Finance, reviewed the General Fund Budget revisions discussed at the
August 28t" Commission Workshop. He noted that additional savings have been identified to
further reduce the millage rate below the 5.9998 rate, as requested by the Commission. Director
Bates indicated that further reductions have also been made to the Water Fund, Sewer Fund,
Stormwater Fund, CRA Fund and the Marina Fund. He advised that a $50,000.00 savings could
be made to the Building Fund if we contract with another agency, as opposed to Broward
County.
Finance Director Bates confirmed for Vice-Mayor Castro that the requests received tonight from
the Chamber of Commerce and the Grant Advisory Board are already included in the budget.
Finance Director Bates reminded the Commission that the Water and Sewer rates would increase
on October 1, 2010. He noted that the increase would not be enough to cover our costs and the
rates would need to be increased to a higher rate later in the year.
Vice-Mayor Castro indicated that the County may be asking for $17,000.00-$25,000.00 to fund
the community bus routes.
Vice-Mayor Castro motioned to approve Resolution #2010-155; seconded by Commissioner
Duke.
Vice-Mayor Castro motioned to approve Resolution #2010-156; seconded by Commissioner
Duke.
Mayor McElyea opened the Public Hearing.
Leslie Brown, 153 NW 14th Way, #3, suggested the City have the new garbage hauler pick up
the garbage just one day per week. She also noted that the City has been flooding for years, and
we should not spend money to fix the problem during this tough economic time.
Bob Mikes, 601 NW 7th Street, Melaleuca Gardens, said we need to start looking years out at our
pensions and benefits. We need to plan for what the people can afford. He noted that structural
changes need to be made to our benefits plan. Lastly, Mr. Mikes suggested bringing employee
pensions and benefits to the same level as the private sector.
John Cruise, 120 SE 3rd Avenue,noted the appraisals run a year behind and the assessments were
much lower this year. He echoed Mr. Mikes' comments and added that next year will be worse.
Mr. Cruise noted that the pensions will not receive an 8%return in the future.
Seeing as there was no one else to speak in favor or opposition, Mayor McElyea closed the
Public Hearing.
Vice-Mayor Castro motioned to adopt the Ad Valorem tax rate at 5.9998 mills, and .2452 for the
Debt Service tax rate; seconded by Commissioner Grace.
Vice-Mayor Castro motioned to adopt the adjusted Annual Budget as presented by staff.

Teddy Bohanan, 312 SW 15th Street, noted South Florida residents are low on recycling. She
supported Waste Management.
Commissioner Grace noted that she might change her vote.
City Attorney Ansbro noted this is the final vote to start negotiations with Waste Management.
City Manager Baldwin advised that this would be a not to exceed Solid Waste Assessment rate
and if there are any savings the City would have that money available.
Grant Smith, Counsel, Choice Environmental, noted their bid is one percent lower than the rest
of the proposals. He stated that they have the experience to transition from Waste Management.
Mr. Smith indicated that he is not sure where these numbers are coming from, unless Waste
Management has been negotiating with City staff after the proposals were received. He said that
they came prepared to lower their rates significantly and save the residents money, but they were
not given the opportunity.
Vice-Mayor Castro noted that Choice Environmental did not make her top three ranking;
primarily for their equity in the company. She stated that she does not want people to think that
the Commission arbitrarily and unconscionably voted against them.
Mr. Smith noted there were no presentations through the process.
Mark LaRocca, 4511 SW 34ffi Avenue, questioned the ranking of the companies, and applauded
Vice-Mayor Castro for calling for the audit. He indicated the City should know what they spend
their money on.
Commissioner Grace noted her rankings were based on the bid, the bond process and how long
the company was in business. She remarked there was a lot of misinformation.
Seeing as there was no one else to speak in favor or opposition, Mayor McElyea closed the
Public Hearing.

Copy: Robert Baldwin, City Manager
From: Dania Beach Grant Advisory Board
Date: September 10, 2010
The Grant Advisory Board is recommending a grant writer retained, either contractual, or
full-time. We would also like to see a more coordinated and dedicated effort towards the
support of grants administration, supervision and assistance, through the re-purposing of
existing staff, on an as needed basis.
We understand this would be an additional expenditure for the city, however,the benefits
that would be achieved in funded community programs, and city projects, will far
outweigh this expenditure.
The Grant Advisory Board has identified close to 50 Community based organizations that
have limited programs in place today, which benefit Dania Beach's residents. Currently
we do not have the resources to pull this all together. Dania has volunteer organizations
that we feel we can build on, as a foundation. Our vision is to bring a better quality of life
to our citizens,through funded grant programs. This would become a direct benefit to our
citizens, where they can see and feel a direct impact to their lives, through the City grant
program. We are recommending funding assistance to further the goals and missions of
the city grant program.
The Grant Advisory Board can make recommendations, guide, direct, perform outreach;
follow up on functions, etc. The Grant Advisory Board doesn't have the time or resources
to bring out ideas and recommendations to fruition. Funding this effort will bring much
needed funds into our city for the benefit of our citizens. With the current economic
conditions and government funding trends, grants are becoming a more important source
of funding.
The Grant Advisory Board has researched and found private organizations which provide
funding to community based organizations, as well as Grants for municipal projects. Our
goal is to seek private funding for Dania Beach's community based organizations as well
as grants for municipal projects.

Grant Advisory Board Memo to City Commission
September 7, 2010
The Grant Advisory Board would like to contract or hire a grant writer that can assist
community organizations in their pursuit to fund their programs, as well as work with us
in an advisory function.
As part of our mission, we have applied for a grant to supplement our administrative
costs.
Our next action items include:
1) Soliciting Community Based Organizations to identify Community Based
needs
2) Identify grants to meet those Community Based Organization's needs
3) Complete Grant applications for these Projects
