9.4 ORDINANCE #2013-014
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DANIA BEACH, FLORIDA,
AUTHORIZING THE PROPER CITY OFFICIALS TO EXECUTE A SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT IN
COMPLIANCE WITH CITY CHARTER REQUIREMENTS, WITH BROWARD COUNTY, FLORIDA,
RELATED TO LITIGATION EXISTING BETWEEN THE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH
CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW SOUTH RUNWAY AT FORT LAUDERDALE-HOLLYWOOD
INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS;
FURTHER,PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. (FIRST READING)
City Attorney Ansbro read the title of Ordinance#2013-014.
Neal McAliley, Airport Special Counsel, provided an overview of the settlement agreement,
which was included in the agenda packet. He noted that a unanimous vote of the Commission is
required to adopt the ordinance, and explained the reasons the settlement team recommends
approval. He further provided details of the benefits to the residents and to the City itself under
this agreement.
Mayor Duke opened the Public Hearing.
Troy Thomassen, 4711 SW 34d' Drive, commented that ocean access property values have
already gone down and questioned how long the voluntary night closings would last. He urged
the County not to approve this settlement and asked the Commission to consider not approving it
also.
Rae Sandler, Melaleuca Gardens, felt this was a pretty good proposal and suggested that
everyone take the soundproofing offered by the County.
Randy Wright, NW 34 h Lane, asked what quality of life is worth, and noted that planes will be
325 feet above his head and will destroy his quality of life. He expressed safety and health
concerns, and urged the Commission to reject the settlement. He asked what would happen to
the residents' mortgages if they take the payout.
Clive Taylor, 642 NE 3ra Street, said this matter has been going on too long and we should
follow the advice of our counsel.
Christine Douglas, Davis Isles, said her neighborhood is hoping they will be included in the next
soundproofing.
Minutes of Regular Meeting 2
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday,October 22,2013—7:00 p.m.
David Hoyt, President of Oaks of Hidden Harbor HOA, noted they feel a fair settlement has been
reached and urged the Commission to approve it.
Dawn Reed, 2724 SW 45d` Street, encouraged the Commission to approve the settlement.
Attorney McAliley addressed some of the questions and comments posed by the residents. He
noted the settlement provides more options for the residents and nothing in the agreement
prevents them from suing the County to seek compensation for the loss of property value. He
elaborated on the issues raised about the voluntary night closure and residential mortgages.
Vice-Mayor Jones questioned what happens if the agreement is violated once the south runway is
opened.
Attorney McAliley responded the City would go back to court to enforce the agreement.
Bruce Hannover, 617 NE 2nd Place, urged the Commission to vote for the settlement.
Seeing as there was no one else to speak in favor or opposition, Mayor Duke closed the Public
Hearing.
Vice-Mayor Jones motioned to adopt Ordinance #2013-014, on first reading; seconded by
Commissioner Brandimarte.
Vice-Mayor Jones noted the runway will open and there will be people who will suffer; his
concern is for the people who will receive no benefit. At this time, he feels it would be the right
decision to go forward.
Commissioner Grace said she does not think this is the best deal for Dania Beach and would like
to see everyone get something out of this deal. While she appreciates the phone calls from
residents, both for and against this agreement, she presently does not support it.
Commissioner Brandimarte commented she supports this agreement because it puts control in
the hands of the residents.
Mayor Duke felt, on balance, this is a good agreement, but he understands the quality of life
issues for the affected residents. He noted the County is behind schedule on the sound insulation
program, which causes concern about how far behind they might be with the other issues
involved. He supports the agreement, but would like a better plan to address the health risks.
Anne Castro stated there would be no going back to the table for negotiation; if the Commission
does not approve this agreement, then the only choice is court.
Attorney McAliley noted the health issues have been raised and were brought out by the
concerns of the residents. He reviewed the provisions in the agreement that address health issues
and reiterated we are not going to get anything substantially better in court. He stressed that if
all four Commissioners do not vote yes tonight, this is over and we go back to court. He
Minutes of Regular Meeting 3
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday,October 22,2013—7:00 p.m.
clarified this settlement is a result from the lawsuit; the Commission can vote yes tonight and
some of these issues could be deliberated prior to the second reading. He encouraged the
Commission to take this deal as there are no guarantees of doing better in court.
Mayor Duke said the health issue is the most important issue. The second issue raised is legal
fees; he would like an explanation in writing of how feasible it is to hit the hurdles for the CRA
loan benefit. The third issue is the lack of representation on the Commission, and he questioned
the legality of the Commission vote. He noted he has a problem with approving this without a
five-member commission as it would leave us vulnerable to a lawsuit.
Commissioner Grace said the City Attorney assured her that the Commission could vote as a
body of four on the agreement, and it would be legal and binding. City Attorney Ansbro
confirmed that the four seated Commissioners could vote on the agreement. Commissioner
Grace noted she does not support the decision that the Commission will make tonight, but we
will do the best we can for the residents.
Vice-Mayor Jones rescinded his motion.
City Attorney Ansbro urged the Commission to approve the ordinance on first reading.
Vice-Mayor Jones said the Mayor is holding the City hostage until the fifth commissioner is
seated, and he addressed the health and litigation fees issues raised.
Commissioner Grace commented there is no reason for anyone to come back to the podium
because the best possible thing to do is motion to approve the ordinance.
Commissioner Brandimarte questioned how much money has been spent on this issue, how
many more millions must be spent before we settle, and why we are not listening to our
attorneys.
Commissioner Grace motioned to adopt Ordinance #2013-014, on first reading; seconded
by Vice-Mayor Jones.
Mayor Duke addressed the board vacancies on the agenda tonight and also addressed the
Commission vacancy. He felt the Commission is not fully representative on the issues coming
before it, and he is not for the appointment to any of the board vacancies until a fifth
commissioner is seated. He asked for a motion to settle this issue tonight and come back in two
weeks.
The motion carried on the following 4-0 Roll Call vote:
Commissioner Brandimarte Yes Vice-Mayor Jones Yes
Commissioner Grace Yes Mayor Duke Yes
