Consent Agenda. She noted she supports the item.

10. Discussion and Possible Action
10.1 City/CRA initiative regarding wayfinding signs - Mayor James
Mayor James asked that the City and CRA work together on wayfinding signs and asked for
support for the City Manager to bring us back a wayfinding sign program. She believes this will
be a great joint venture that will stretch from the beach to 441.
Vice -Mayor Salvino asked how much this would cost.
Mayor James said we do not know yet and she is asking City Manager Garcia to come back with
different options. There are different infrastructure funding and different grants that we may be
able to apply for to get it funded.
Vice -Mayor Salvino commented if we start adding stuff in the middle of the Strategic Plan and if
they cannot find ways to do this regarding the funding, it could wait as he does not want to deter
from our budget.
City Manager Garcia noted we have a great grant administrator. Wayfinding signs are not in this
year's budget, but working with the CRA, we can explore any and all avenues to fund
wayfinding signs via grants, the penny tax, and/or other funding sources.
Vice -Mayor Salvino reiterated he does not want to deter from our budget, but he feels it is a
great idea.
Mayor James said the City Manager would start with the work now and it would take six months
to a year to get it done.
Commissioner Davis noted we give the City Manager so much to do; she wants to be sure that
we are giving the time for the checklist on their Strategic Plan. We should be mindful of the
things we prioritized; this was not included in the plan. We all love it but let us focus on the
things we had on our checklist.
Mayor James confirmed she had the City Manager's support before she put this item on the
agenda. She just wanted the Manager to be able to start the work.
Minutes of Virtual Regular Meeting 11
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday, November 9, 2021 — 7:00 p.m.
City Manager Garcia said this requires partnering with a consultant; we can have CIP and Grants
Administrator Donnelly look for a grant and then being able to align with the proper consultant
to help us. We can begin the legwork now, whether it is mid -year budget adjustment or next
year's budget.
Commissioner Lewellen questioned whether we really need a consultant and if we used one the
first time this was investigated with CDBG.
City Manager Garcia said we did not as we were just investigating the CDBG funding for it. She
is also looking to the penny tax for funding.
Commissioner Lewellen is in favor of this but would just like to see how much this would be;
however, if we need to wait to the next budget, she is okay with that.
10.2 Historic District - Mayor James
Mayor James asked if there is support to allow Community Development to go out and create a
historic district in the City.
Commissioner Odman noted this is something she intended to do when she came on the
Commission; however, she decided she was not in favor of it because it would restrict the City
from needed improvements such as climate resiliency and solar panels.
City Manager Garcia said that after discussion with Community Development, we should have a
consultant investigate it. She had never thought of a house not being able to change the windows
and resiliency. It is exciting in some way but challenging.
Commissioner Odman noted she does not have a problem with us moving forward and
investigating this but wants to ensure that we do it properly.
Corinne Lajoie, Assistant Director of Community Development, explained typically a historic
designation will create an additional level of review; it does not prohibit or stop changes, but it
will have an additional review process.
Commissioner Lewellen said she is familiar with historic districts and likes them, but it can be
complicated, expensive and a time-consuming process. Although it does not necessarily
preclude changes, it can be very difficult and complex, and she used the Nyberg -Swanson house
as an example. She has some trepidation with it because once you do it, it could impact people
living in the district and impact buildings. It is going to need a consultant and perhaps we should
have a workshop to discuss it in detail. There are pros to it but there are a lot of cons.
Commissioner Davis agreed to the sentiment to a degree. She believes if any city should have a
historic designation, it should be Broward's first city. We should do it the right way and she
would like to see it happen for our City. She said this is one more thing we are putting on our
plate and does not want to spread the staff too thin; however, in the long term she is in support of
it.
Minutes of Virtual Regular Meeting 12
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday, November 9, 2021 — 7:00 p.m.
Mayor James said she is aware of this and has had a conversation with Community Development
and the City Manager and everyone was comfortable with it. Community Development was
excited about it, and this is a project where we will learn a lot of new things. We want people to
understand where they are moving, the pros, the cons, and the history behind where they are
living. As the first city in Broward, it is important to have this historic designation.
Vice -Mayor Salvino noted we have already started developing our City and part of our historical
downtown is US-1 where we have the antique shops. A lot of that has already been torn down,
windows and doors have already been changed, losing the historic value. Behind Dania
shopping center, there are a bunch of homes and people are going to sell the property because the
values are high. In the area of CW Thomas and Byrd Pointe, there are some old houses there.
He is not opposed to a historic district, but we have a challenge in front of us especially in
today's world.
Commissioner Lewellen suggested we get an estimate for the cost of a consultant. It is not in the
budget and approved and she is not sure it is aligned with our Strategic Plan. It might make
more sense to get an estimate as to how much it would cost to bring in a consultant and do the
initial work on it.
Mayor James said she would first like to see if we have consensus on the item brought forth and
questioned Finance Director DiPaolo on how much we have in our Commission contingency.
Finance Director DiPaolo responded $200,000.00 for the collective contingency and $25,000.00
per elected official.
Mayor James asked City Manager Garcia if there is an issue with the Strategic Plan with this
proj ect.
City Manager Garcia said she would recommend for Assistant Director of Community
Development Lajoie to seek costs for a consultant, and we would come back to the Commission
with a cost in either December or January. She wants to make sure we do not drop the ball; we
do not want to be a victim of our own success. She recommends Assistant Director of
Community Development Lajoie investigate how much a consultant would cost and then we
could come back.
The Commission consensus was to move forward with this process.
10.3 Options for in -person Commission meetings - Commissioner Odman
Commissioner Odman said when we come back to in -person meetings at the second meeting in
January, she would like options for being away for a meeting. As long as there are three in
person for a quorum, you would still be able to vote. That is not anything new, we already have
that.
Minutes of Virtual Regular Meeting 13
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday, November 9, 2021— 7:00 p.m.
Assistant City Attorney Boutsis said the State of Florida is very conservative and does not allow
other exceptions. For the state legislature and some of the other organizations that they control,
they have lots of way for them to hold meetings virtually. They do not allow city or county
commissions to do the same. The only exception that the State has recognized is if there is an
illness and then if there is a quorum, the person is able to participate and vote but there are no
other exceptions recognized under the State.
Vice -Mayor Salvino recalled issues in the past regarding sickness and missing meetings. He
stated we are elected officials and it is our job to be there. If we cannot be there, he would hope
this would not be a consistent thing. If we are coming back, it is our job to be at City Hall; there
should be no exception unless it is something very vital.
Commissioner Odman said this is not intended for those with a chronic illness. This is for those
of you with a cold. If you have a cold, please do not come to a Commission meeting right now.
We should utilize the technology we have available and is working well. She reiterated this is
not meant for chronic illnesses.
Vice -Mayor Salvino noted he has not seen this come up before and he has seen issues with
microphones breaking down and freezing up. If we were to vote, he would vote no on it. He
does not want to deal with one person at home and the rest at City Hall unless it is necessary.
We should judge it by each case and if it becomes a habit, then we should take a different
approach.
Mayor James said the pandemic has changed so much for so many of us. None of us were
elected to abuse power. There needs to be some placeholders; if we see someone abusing it, we
bring it back and make the necessary adjustments.
Commissioner Odman clarified we already have this in place with the law that allows us to
telephonically phone in. There is no new language that we need to put in and nothing to vote on.
Mayor James asked if there was Commission consensus to move this forward.
Assistant City Attorney Boutsis explained she does not think we need to take action. The
Attorney General has implied that the Commission can do this. The Commissioner brought it on
the agenda for discussion and possible action because she was looking to do something broader,
but the law prohibits anything broader.
10.4 City Attorney request to seek Court authorized inspection warrant for 225 SW 15th
Street
Assistant City Attorney Boutsis reviewed the memo included in the agenda packet and noted the
City Attorney's office is seeking authorization from the Commission to proceed with an
inspection warrant for 225 SW 15ffi Street.
Mayor James, Commissioner Davis, and Commissioner Lewellen had no objection.
Minutes of Virtual Regular Meeting 14
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday, November 9, 2021— 7:00 p.m.
Vice -Mayor Salvino said he thought we had a nuisance abatement process that would have taken
them to the Special Magistrate and then taken the property.
Assistant City Attorney Boutsis explained we cannot take away a homesteaded property and
addressed all the violations listed in the memo included in the agenda packet.
Vice -Mayor Salvino asked what good it is to cite them if we do nothing about it.
Assistant City Attorney Boutsis said the point of the inspection warrant is to allow us to go in to
find out what other violations there are and perhaps have the Court order telling him he must do
certain things; in addition, if it is a life safety issue, we can go in and do the repair.
Vice -Mayor Salvino noted his question was still not answered and wanted to know if they have
these violations, if they will have to go in front of the magistrate to settle the fine and if they do
not settle the fine, what happens.
Assistant City Attorney Boutsis stated a lot of them have turned into liens against the property
and we even have a judgment against the property. If he ever goes to sell the property that is
homesteaded, then we can collect. Additionally, we are trying again to have the homestead
exemption removed since we know he is not living there.
The Commission consensus was to authorize the City Attorney's office to file for an inspection
warrant, and for any other remedies in Court against 225 SW 15th Street.
10.5 Review and approve City Commission meeting dates for 2022 - City Clerk
City Clerk Schneider reviewed the information included in the agenda packet.
The Commission consensus was to approve the City Commission meeting dates for 2022, as
amended, to re -schedule the November 8, 2022 meeting to Wednesday, November 9, 2022, to re-
schedule the November 22, 2022 to Monday, November 21, 2022 following the Organization
Meeting, and to cancel the December 27, 2022 meeting.
City Clerk Schneider noted the CRA Board meeting dates for 2022 would mirror the dates of the
first Commission meeting of every month.
11. Commission Comments
11.1 Commissioner Davis
Commissioner Davis said she attended the Dania Elementary Read for the Record Day, and it
was a wonderful day. We need to take as many opportunities as possible to visit our elementary
and middle schools. She also attended WMODA and noted it was featured on Deco Drive and it
is brining great media attention to our City. She thanked Public Services for being proactive

to be part of the City and want to wear our logo. She would like to see that brought back up.

quite a few kids present and BSO Fire & Rescue did a great job entertaining the kids as well. It
was nice to see the C.O.P. program running again. She thanked our veterans and wished
everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.
11.3 Commissioner Odman
Commissioner Odman wished everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. She noted for those who are
considering getting flu shots for their younger ones, CVS did a great job. There are lots of places
doing clinics and they are getting us back to normal.
11.4 Vice -Mayor Salvino
Vice -Mayor Salvino said it has been a year back on the dais and he has really enjoyed himself.
He cannot think of any disagreements at length; we shine, we have had a good year and great
times. He thanked the City Manager and Assistant City Manager and all our City administration.
He wished everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and hopes they stay healthy and safe.
11.5 Mayor James
Mayor James felt the Commission's arguments are healthy and bring out the best in us. With
differences and different strengths, we are putting each other in the best position to win. She
thanked the residents for being so active in this community regardless of the section of the City
that they live in. We are only as good as our residents. We have raised the bar on what it is to be
a public servant and elected official.
Mayor James spoke of attending a pep rally at Dania Elementary today with Embrace Girls
Foundation.
Mayor James noted she attended the fall festival and initially was concerned we would not have
a good turnout, but we did. She thanked the lst, 2"d, and 3rd place winners for decorating their
trunks, and gave kudos to the Parks and Recreation staff.
Mayor James gave dates for Thanksgiving food giveaways: November 18th at Olsen Middle
School, Tamara James Foundation has the Thanksgiving drive on November 23rd, and on

13.1 City Manager
City Manager Garcia wished everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. Regarding Commissioner Davis
bringing up the City merchandise, she is going to revisit a conversation she had with the CRA
Director. Either the CRA or Chamber of Commerce shall have a storefront, and she has not
forgotten about this:
City Manager Garcia noted the letter she attached to her report was sent to the MPO; the bridge
project will be history. We wanted to make sure the $4 million will be allocated back to our
City; there needs to be equity among municipalities.
City Manager Garcia said she had spoken to the Mayor and Commissioner Lewellen to continue
the proactive efforts with our testing sight at City Hall. We were able to extend the program
with Broward Health through December 30t' and she reiterated that this does not cost the City a
penny.
City Manager Garcia reported we started a dialogue with Dania Pointe with upcoming special
events. Additionally, we now have a report Captain Marks produces which will also be sent to
Dania Pointe because we are working on adding to our law enforcement team and we want them
to be aware of our proactive efforts regarding security and public safety.
