10. Discussion and Possible Action
10.1 RFP for City Attorney - Vice-Mayor Odman
Vice-Mayor Odman said we have not had an RFP put out since the current city attorney came on,
and it seemed to be time to do so in accordance with best practices. She asked City Manager
Garcia if it is in line with best practices to continue to review and make sure we have the best fit
for the City.
City Manager Garcia responded the three employees who report directly to the City Commission
are the City Attorney, CRA Executive Director and the City Manager; all three are at-will
employees. It is key that the Commission has the relationship they are looking for with all three.
She would always recommend that the Commission does what they feel is in the best interest of
the City.
Minutes of Regular Meeting 3
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday,March 26,2019—7:00 p.m.
Vice-Mayor Odman asked if there is something unusual in putting out this RFP and if this is
something other cities do. We need to ensure we are most effectively using the taxpayers'
money.
City Manager Garcia responded the Commission can make the decisions based on what they
want to do. Nothing prohibits them from making an assessment,putting out an RFP, and seeking
guidance from fellow commissioners from other cities; whether they do so or not is in
compliance with their role as elected officials.
Commissioner James spoke in support of putting out an RFP to see what we have out there to
make sure we are using our tax monies the best that we can.
Mayor Lewellen explained her view on putting out an RFP for city attorney. She noted this has
gone on for a while now; City Attorney Ansbro has offered to meet with individual
commissioners, but not everyone has done that. He deserves the respect to discuss this with him
before trying to replace him. Her recommendation is to go out for RFP for an assistant city
attorney, which would cut down on outsourcing, and each of the Commissioners should have a
meeting with City Attorney Ansbro. We should also talk about the internship program. If we do
an RFP for city attorney, we should require someone who has at least 15 years of experience as a
city attorney. She thinks this is unnecessary; if you want to review a person, sit down and speak
with them.
Vice-Mayor Odman noted this is nothing personal against City Attorney Ansbro; from her
perspective, this is purely a matter of fiscal responsibility.
Vice-Mayor Odman motioned to go out for RFP within 60 days for city attorney, company
or person; seconded by Commissioner James.
Commissioner James spoke of influences on Commissioners and noted she votes for all of our
residents. This is best practice; it is nothing personal against City Attorney Ansbro and is just
what is in the best interest of the City.
Commissioner Brandimarte commented we are the Commission and we make the decisions.
Lately, developers think they are part of our team; they are not. When developers send out
emails criticizing the Commission over an employee, a red flag goes up. She does not recall a
developer ever sending out an email to all of the Commission referring only to what was on the
agenda tonight. They have to learn there is a division and it is called the Dania Beach
Commission.
Commissioner Harris suggested the Commission look at what the best practices are, what our
vision is, how we can streamline some of the processes we do now, and come to a consensus
where we can establish an RFP for what we are looking for. He is willing to look at everything
that we can do to make sure what our best practices are and what we can be.
Vice-Mayor Odman noted this feels like the fiscal thing to do and it is a given that we would
only pick a city attorney who understands the specific issues of our City.
Minutes of Regular Meeting 4
Dania Beach City Commission
Tuesday,March 26,2019—7:00 p.m.
Mayor Lewellen explained her opinion on this has nothing to do with the email that was
referenced. She said regarding the reasoning for this RFP, what was brought up is that a review
on an employee is wanted. You do not do a review on an employee by seeking a replacement;
instead you sit down and talk to the employee about their work. Putting out an RFP seeking to
replace that employee is not the way you do it.
The motion carried on the following 4-1 Roll Call vote:
Commissioner Brandimarte Yes Vice-Mayor Odman Yes
Commissioner Harris Yes Mayor Lewellen No
Commissioner James Yes
Mayor Lewellen questioned if a committee would need to be formed that would make decisions
and recommendations.
City Attorney Ansbro responded there would need to be some parameters. He would want to
draft something based on other cities, send it out to each Commissioner within the next two
weeks to review and provide comments, and then determine where to publish it. The
Commission would probably want to appoint a committee that understands the qualifications in
order to review the applications.
10.2 Committee of the Whole workshops - Commissioner James
Commissioner James felt what the Commission did today could be avoided if we have
workshops outside of the Commission meetings at least once a month. She asked if there was a
consensus to do this in order to provide a smoother Commission meeting with less drama.
Discussion ensued.
Mayor Lewellen explained why she felt this is not necessary. When something major comes up,
we set workshops.
Commissioner Brandimarte agreed another meeting is not needed.
City Manager Garcia felt something in the future to look at would be if there is a very light
agenda, to have one Committee of the Whole and one Commission meeting. She added she
would be keeping the Commission busy with several workshops that she will be planning;
perhaps do it according to what is coming up.
Vice-Mayor Odman liked the idea of doing it quarterly in order to tackle a big group of things
that come up.
The Commission consensus was to have quarterly workshops.

second and fourth weeks of April and he will coordinate the workshop.

Cities on May 18'h at Margaritaville;the sponsorship of$2,500.00 is available to us.
The Commission consensus was to do the $2,500.00 sponsorship to the BLC.
11.3 Commissioner James
Commissioner James provided funeral arrangements for Veronica Larkins.
Commissioner James asked how the Commission felt about providing an extra benefit for
employees whose parent or child living in Dania Beach passes away. We would give them an
additional discount of$700.00 on the graveyard services. She would like to create a policy for
this for the future and would also like to give this discount now to Veronica Larkins' son, who
works in Public Services.
A brief discussion ensued.
The Commission consensus was to provide a $700.00 discount for graveyard services to City
employees for immediate family members who live in Dania Beach and pass away.
Commissioner James felt the entire Commission should be invited to events in the future.
Commissioner James referenced an email regarding the 2020 census event.

and represent the interests they voice to us. On the dais, the relationship with developers who
have become respected stakeholders comes with the responsibility to maintain strong boundaries
and a mutual appreciation for the ethical practices that have been put in place to make sure that
there is equity,transparency and fairness in all of our interactions. She is confident the team will
continue in a direction that serves the best interests of the City.
Vice-Mayor Odman also addressed the photos in City Hall; along with the digital images we will
be doing, she has ideas to display some of the physical photographs.
11.5 Mayor Lewellen
Mayor Lewellen expressed sympathy to the Larkins family; there is a collection being taken to
donate to the family.
Mayor Lewellen spoke of the Meet& Greet held for the City Manager prior to this meeting. She
would like to see something like this on a quarterly basis; perhaps we can talk about this at the
next meeting.
Mayor Lewellen noted she was contacted by a group called The Women's Breast and Heart
Initiative; they are coming to Dania Beach as we have a high incidence of late identification of
breast cancer. They will be here the first three Saturdays in April, will set up in the SW
Community Center, and are looking for volunteers. They will walk door to door educating
people on what is going on, and on April 27t', they will have a screening and wellness day for
