Mr. Ruf read the Resolution by title. C/M Disraelly said on Line 16
the "are" should be "is". C/M Disraelly said this Resolution came
about because he and the City Engineer had discussed that the fees had
not been adjusted in many years. He said when they reviewed the costs
that were involved for the hourly basis of individuals in the determin-
ation of these figures for work to be done by the Utility on private
property, these were the new rates that had been proposed.
C/M Disraelly said this is in keeping with what the costs are for labor
in the City -on regular and overtime basis:
Jet Rodder --.$55 per hour
Video -Sealer - $75 per hour
Backhoe machine and operator and servicemen based on 1, 2 and 3 men crews
V/M Massaro asked the City Manager if there was a certain amount of
money considered in there as overhead and she wondered if the adjustment
to salaries was taken into consideration when these rates were set up.
Laura Stuurmans said the salaries paid by the City for Utility workers
as of the present Cate, which would be effective through the balance of
this fiscal year,was taken into account in establishing the rates. The
rates reflected here are for laborers and there is provision for overhead
C/M Disraelly said the overhead that is combined cost is computed in here
at 20% and as far as the equipment is concerned, this was amortized over
a five year period. Fuel and oil costs were also included in this and
estimated price of insurance based on the hourly cost was also computed
into all of this.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED RESOLUTION NO. PASSED.
Temp. Reso. #2246.
Alan Ruf read the Resolution by title. Ken Lones, Landscape Architect
said they are now in the process of replacing dead shrubbery and upgradin
the landscaping at Woodmont. He said they found that in making the pool
area better landscaped, they would like to increase the pool deck. They
came for a site plan revision to add a little less than 1,000 square
feet of sitting space to the pool deck.
Mr. Lones said there will be Landscaping to the right of the walkway.

will be planting on both sides of the walk. The pool extension is to
the north area and the fence will be moved on the west and there will
be a landscaped area inside that fence.

of Human Relations, will present the
greetings of the City to Kiryat Tivon
and Jack Wiener will present the key to the

shall report to Council on their return.
Mayor Falck said many people from Tamarac, including Robert Shurr will
be visiting Kiryat Tivon during May. Alan Ruf read the Resolution by
title. Mayor Falck said it was his recommendation to adopt this
Resolution appointing Robert Shurr to represent the City.
C/M Krantz said there is only one group going, they are leaving on
May 5 and returning on June 2 and by mutual agreement Mr. Shurr is going
to present the Proclamation and Mr. Wiener is going to present the key
to the City.
C/M Kravitz asked whether or not Council is doing the right thing as
far as precedent is concerned. He asked if these representatives are
entitled to expenses when they visit these Sister cities, since nowhere
in the Resolution does it say anything about expenses. C/M Kravitz said
he would be more comfortable if they could state that there would be
no expenses involved.
Mayor Falck said the matter of expenses was discussed with Mr. Shurr
and he is accepting responsibility for his own expenses and neither he
nor Mr. Wiener are expecting anything from the City. The only thing
involved is that the City recognize that there is a group of people
going over there. Mayor Falck said he would hope for a Workshop meeting
when they return to discuss this further.
- 8 - 4/14/82

C/M Krantz said Messrs. Shurr and Wiener's expenses for the trap have
been prepaid months in advance. The designation of Commissioner of
Human Relations is only a temporary title and this is helpful when
appearing before the Mayor of Kiryat Tivon.
C/M Disraelly referred to an article which appeared in the Florida
Municipal Record of October,1981 on Sister Cities indicating that
1981 was the 25th Anniversary of the Sister City Program in the United
States. There are currently about 700 cities in the country which
have Sister City relationships throughout the world.

15. Potential Annexation Areas - Discussion and possible action con-
cerning future potential annexation reserve areas adjacent to the
City.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: Discussion only,
No action was taken, presentation by
Richard Rubin.
Richard Rubin said the County informed the City months ago that they
would like to have the cities more -knowledgeable of areas being platted
of unincorporated portions of the County that might be brought into
the City in the future. The reason is to assure that the City's future
rights are protected, that the roadways are coordinated, that they are
similar in intent to the characteristics the Council would like the
City to have in the future.
The City Planner said he submitted this information to Council several
months ago and it appeared that Council endorsed the concept but did
not want to go much further at that time. Fie, therefore, sent a general
map to the County stating the areas that Council was concerned with.
Mr. Rubin said there are several amendments being proposed to the Land
Use Plan. One of the amendments will be to incorporate potential
annexation and reserve areas, and ,'-,t if a piece of property is annexed
to the City, the Council will know what the Land Use is of that property.
- 9 - 4/14/82
/pm
The City Planner checked with Broward State Division of Department
of Veterans Community Affairs to see if this concept was acceptable
to the State and they endorsed it. They said they would like to see
more cities look to the future about annexation areas. This Land use
Plan will come before the Council in two months and the City Planner
asked Council for advice on areas that might have been left out.
C/M Disraelly referred to the Potential Annexation Reserve Areas Map
before Council and said there are some open spaces in white and because
of the layout of the City it is difficult to know whether those are in
or out of the City; they should be marked somehow. C/M Disraelly said
it should be shown, in the eastern part of the City, who owns these
areas. C/M Krantz recommended that the map be made larger to accommodate
reading it. Richard Rubin said the final draft will be full size.
ape Mayor Falck said he thinks Items 1 and 2 on the Potential Annexation
3 Reserve Area list are very desirable because these two parcels affect
the City of Tamarac's residents there. The area relating to the Gold
Coast School and the industrial development is a problem and anything
that could be done would be beneficial to the City.
V/M Massaro asked the City Planner if this was one of those contract
zoning items and he said he is not talking about the subject of zoning.
Mr. Rubin said the first step they are talking about is the perimeter
of the areas they want to annex. He said eventually he would like the
Council to identify what Land Use they want to see on this property
either agreeing with the one that is in the County now or recommending
any changes which can be done during the mammoth process.
Mr. Rubin said this will come to Council in dune for a public hearing,
and for the record, he said the only other city who could annex that
industrial area south of the Executive Airport is Fort Lauderdale.
Their staff is recommending to their City Commission that it be annexed
into Tamarac and not into Fort Lauderdale. The reason is that if this
area is in Fort Lauderdale all these units will want direct access to
the Airport and they want to limit the access of these industrial build-
ings to the Airport.
14. Cable TV Rates - Temp. Ord. #974 - Discussion and possible action
on a request for rate increase by American Video Corporation.
First Reading.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED on
first reading.
Alan Ruf read the Ordinance by title. Rick Scheller, Plant Manager of
American Video Corporation said they were requesting an increase in
rates of $1.50 per month for the first TV set, $1.00 for each additional
set, installation and other monthly rates will remain unchanged. About
three years have passed since the last rate increase and the rate increase
from $8.00 to $9.50 represents an 18.7 increase or about half the increase
of consumer price index.
Mr. Scheller said, unfortunately, the areas in the economy which have
experienced the greatest price rise happen to be those which are
significant to the Cable TV operation. The three largest expense items -,are
interest, employee wages and energy -related items such as gasoline and
electricity to power the cable system. Since the last rate increase,
the prime rate has increased 41%, the wage index has increased 34%, the
price per gallon of gasoline has risen 72%. On top of spiraling expenses,
the Cable TV industry and his company have experienced much more com-
petition from ON TV, various independent paid distributors, the increased
popularity of video cassette recorders, the introduction of video disc
players, the sale of satellite -receiving discs to condominium complexes.
Mr. Scheller said in the very near future satellite -to -home transmissions
for cable programming will be added to these competitive pressures. None
of the competitors pay franchise fees or have the expensive regulations
- 10 - 4/14/82
/pm
and they have had to respond to competitive pressures by offering
more and more programming. As a result, since March, 1979 the cost
for programming per subscriber has increased 94%. Both the investors
and bank lenders have been patient providing the funds for the con-
struction and operation of American Video's Cable TV system. They
now believe, however, that the time has come for this increase which
they believe is modest under the circumstances. They ask Council to
act favorably on this.
Mr. Scheller said the last time he appeared before Council there were
two problems on 70th St. and 70th Ave. area, Sections 14, 16 and 17.
For the record, this is clear and all problems have been addressed.
Mayor Falck suggested that Mr. Scheller tell Council the
additional services that are being provided at the old rate. Mayor
Falck said as an original subscriber he got basic coverage and that
was all but since then he has five or six additional channels at no
additional cost.
Mr. Scheller said since 1979 and without a rate increase they have
added CNN, CNN2, WOR, Consumer Shopping Guide, and ESPN. V/M Massaro
asked if the County has recently passed an Ordinance approving rate
increases for his company. Mr. Scheller said yes. V/M Massaro asked
how these rates correspond with the rates that they set? Mr. Scheller
said they are exactly the same.
Mr. Scheller said when.a complaint comes into the Repair Department,
there are eleven personnel with eight handling the phones. As a repair
call is received they automatically enter this into a computer terminal.
This is automatically passed to the Dispatch Department which has two
people on duty at all times.
C/M Disraelly said that last November Mr. Scheller indicated he was
going to actively poll certain sections that do not want this. Mr.
Scheller said they were Sections 23 and 24 that wanted a revote.
Carl Slatner, Sales Manager said they have talked to Section Presidents
and interested parties within any Section that is not presently wired.
They made another presentation to these areas and encouraged them to
take another vote that would beheld officially within their Homeowners
Association.
Mr. Slatner said on polling Springlake it was shown that 42 out of 93
said that they wanted to have Cable TV and a much larger number said
that they want it available. He said the other day he received mail
from Harold Newman in Section 23 and their vote is still taking place
but the favorable results are that 135 out of 200 have already said
that they want Cable TV. Mr. Slatner said 2
sections that have had another vote have had favorable results and are
going ahead with it. It will take approximately two months before they
can begin.
C/M Disraelly questioned the problems in the Isles of
Tamarac and Mr. Scheller said these have been resolved. C/M Krantz
asked what the mechanics are in starting this program, is a signed
contract involved? Mr. Slatner said for an individual where there is
the ability to route the cable through the easement and,therefore, make
cable available as in a single family home there is never any contract.
The only thing that an individual signs is the work order. When they are
dealing with property other than a single family home then Right -of -
Access is needed.
C/M Krantz asked what the procedure is if, at the end of a term, would
the cable be removed from the property? Mr. Slatner said there is no
minimum time, it can be cancelled at any time. Generally, they would
just disconnect the service from the signal and leave the cable. If it
were a worn out line or they request a relocation this may necessitate
11 - 4/14/82
/pm
a new line. Mr. Slatner said unless there is a specific request they
do not remove the drop line entering the house.

Mayor Falck said he brought this to the attention of Council and the
City Attorney based on a complaint that had been registered in the
eastern sections of the City. The City Manager said perhaps this
conforms with Broward County hours but each municipality can institute
its own hours. There are a few cities that have earlier hours:
Plantation and Sunrise open at 8:00 a.m. on Sunday.
Mayor Falck said there are mixed emotions: the City should not constantly
try to be restrictive on some things but on the other hand when there
are problems something must be done.

42. Cypress Creek Commons - Discussion and possible action regarding
plans for terraced area.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION:
by Richard .Rubin.
ape
presentation
Richard Rubin said the location for this is on Southgate Blvd. just
east of 88th Ave. North of this is the Coral Springs High School and
to the west and east is Cypress Creek Commons, to the south is a golf
course and Tamarac Town Square. At a previous meeting, the City Planner
was authorized to prepare some conceptual plans to see whether
there were funds available to Grant this project. Mr. Rubin said he
had initial discussions with one agency who is looking to fund water -
oriented activities and they thought this concept would be acceptable.
Mr. Rubin said after talking to members of Council two innovative ideas
have come up related to the design of this entertainment area. Mr.
Rubin referred to the two drawings he presented as alternate ideas and
he said he would like to see from Council if either one of these will
receive their endorsement and, if so, he will prepare the plans accept-
able for construction and Grant purposes without any expenditure up
front hoping that the Grant is received. If the Grant is received he
would ask to be compensated for his services. If the Grant is not
received he would consider this just part of his services to the City.
Mr. Rubin said the major difference between the two drawings is that
one shows the platform placed in an excavated area adjacent to the C14
canal on a fixed wood platform with lawned terraces going up a slope
approximately 7 or 8 rows in depth. This was the one the agency that
was mentioned before thought was an innovative use of the waterway.
The other concept is easier to build, is safer and would require
building the platform on the high ground with benched seating that
would require a minimum of maintenance. This second concept is of a more
permanent nature. C/M Disraelly said that bench seating was mentioned
but this concept could be used whether there was bench seating or just
grass.
C/M Disraelly said that he would like to see this concept expanded to
accommodate at least 400 people. Richard Rubin said this could be done
with no problem. Mayor Falck asked if it could not be possible in either
concept to have people bring their own chairs. Richard Rubin said this
would be a fine idea of just a few fixed seats and the rest grassed area.
Mr. Rubin said that the application would have to be in by June 1 with
facts and figures. Mr. Rubin said they might have to lose a year because
they were hoping to have this in by now but they will do their best to
meet the deadline.
Carl Alper, resident of Section 23 said a development such as this should
- 14 - 4/14/82
/pm
have some public input. Mr. Alper said there is now a shopping center,
a new high school and now there is a planned amphitheatre in this area.
He said he wonders if it might be more appropriate that this should be
connected with the Veterans Memorial Park which is already on that strip
of land where there is already parking facilities.
C/M Disraelly suggested that the City Planner go ahead with the plan
of the project as to whether it is located at the exact location
adjacent to 88th Avenue or wherever will be discussed later. If there
are no Grant funds this would be a moot point. C/M Disraelly said the
original plan, indicated in a memo of January 27, said that they hoped
to have a cost estimate in by April 15.

request for: --- - —

b) Refund of a portion of retention fees.
c) Operation of certain maintenance equipment prior to 8:00 a.m.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: a) TABLED
to next regular meeting, b)
WITHDRAWN at request of petitioner,
c) TABLED until first meeting in May.
b) Syd Workman, Consultant to the Colony West Country Club requested
that Item b) be withdrawn from the Agenda until such time as they will
reapply. V/M Massaro MOVED that this Item be removed entirely from
Council's Agenda, SECONDED by C/M Krantz.
VOTE: ALL VOTED AYE
a) V/M Massaro said she would be inclined to allow them the extension of
time since they are asking to construct the entire sidewalk at the same
time. However, she would ask to TABLE this for further consideration
because she wants to see what effect it has on other people in that area.
Mr. Workman said there is one contractor doing the entire project and
they would like it all completed at the same time. Mr. Workman said he
would like to include the guardrail and the sidewalks together.
V/M Massaro said this should not be allowed since the guardrail is
necessary to avoid an accident. Mr. Workman said they have one con-
tractor and for them to go out and get another for this portion of the
project could create an administrative problem for the members of the
Club. V/M Massaro said they are long beyond the time they were given
originally and this should not be tied in with anything else. Mr.
Workman said he would like time to talk to the contractor and return
with a specific proposal.
V/M Massaro suggested that consideration of a) be TABLED to the next
regular meeting because at that time the guardrails will also be
discussed, and she so MOVED, SECONDED by C/M Krantz.

c) Syd Workman said the request is to ask for some adjustment in the
City Ordinances that govern when golf course equipment can start in
the morning. Presently the Ordinance provides an 8:00 a.m. starting
time which creates a hardship on behalf of his clients as relates to
their ability to run a golf course that has an 8:00 starting time for
its players. The request is to ask the City to modify the Ordinance
to allow for a 7:00 a.m. starting time so that the greens equipment
could be used prior to the starting time for the players. There are
other golf courses in the community that have the ability to start
earlier.
V/M Massaro said on this request she would ask Council to consider the
extension of the time that has been set by the Police Chief until
another subject has been determined. The next Board of Directors
meeting for the Colony West Country Club is scheduled for April 29.
V/M Massaro said she would ask that they be permitted to continue the
starting time that has been given to them by the Police Chief until the
first meeting of May,and she so MOVED. SECONDED by C/M Krantz.
Leo Ratner, member of the Coordinating Committee of Sands Point said
they object to this because they are directly on the line of the golf
course and the starting time has been a hardship for everyone there.
Harold Slade, resident, said these people start at 6:30 or 6:45 since
they were given the time of 7:00. Morris Goldberg, a member of the
Executive Council of Sands Point Condominium said he represents them
when he questions why the time was changed when he was told it was an
8:00 a.m. limit. V/M Massaro said when she told Mr. Goldberg this time,
it was 8:00 a.m.,but they do have a right to come in and ask for a
special privilege and that privilege has been granted to them. She
said they did allow those trees to be cut and she has been endeavoring
to assist the people to get the trees cut lower.
V/M Massaro said that there are many thousands living around golf
courses in the City and Sands Point is the only one that has filed a
complaint about the time that they start. She said she lives 7-1/2 feet
from a golf course so she has personal experience with this. She said
that Sands Point and Colony West Country Club are neighbors and should
work at being good neighbors.
Mr. Workman said V/M Massaro's presentation was fair and they have yet
to finalize an agreement between the various sides. Mayor Falck said
the only matter before Council today is whether or not they will table
this item until the first meeting in May.
VOTE: ALL VOTED AYE
A resident questioned how and why the time was changed and by whom. The
City Manager said there is a provision in the law that restricts the
operating hour to 8:00 a.m. that does permit the Chief of Police, upon
application of the party that is affected, to extend that time to an
earlier or later hour than normally would be until Council
consideration can be given to a change of the hour on a more permanent
basis.
Charles Morris on the Council of Sands Point, said he would like to
ask the gentleman representing Colony West Golf Course how he could
equate a few people playing golf and getting out early with 1,000 people
living on the golf course. Mayor Falck said Council has already closed
the matter and any questions should be directed at the first meeting in
May.
Mayor Falck called a short recess.

C/M Disraelly asked Greg Darby why there is water that settles on the
west side of Brookwood on McNab Rd. Mr. Darby said there is a con-
struction fault in the paving and the curbing on McNab Rd. They
have retained certain fees from the contractor and this was put in
in accordance with the County construction of McNab Rd.; they over-
looked the grading problem between the curbing. This was removed once
and replaced but is still not satisfactory.
Mr. Darby said they have not supplied release of the final payment on

action concerning clarification of a parking waiver approval
granted on January 13, 1982.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED RESOLUTION NO. R-- - p PASSED.
Temp. Reso. #2247 with conditions.
Item reconsidered (See Pages 20 & 21).
Alan Ruf read the Resolution by title. C/M Disraelly said he asked
that this be reagendized because the report that was sent to Mr. Fatizzi
of Council Action was not what the intent of the discussions on that
day were. C/M Disraelly said he did say in two instances to amend
his Motion, it was his intent that those amendments were to be added
to the original motion which stated, "The petition be denied until
such time as they bring the parking lot lights up to standard, that
handicapped spaces are provided, the hedge,as required by Code,is
planted on McNab and Brookwood Blvd'!.
C/M Disraelly said that Mr. Fatizzi said that lights had been installed
but they were not as required by City standards. He, therefore, amended
the Motion, and this should have been added, that the petition be
denied until such time as they bring the parking lot lights up to standard
or provide the City with a cash bond of $5,000 to guarantee the
completion of the work. When the Motion was made, again amended,
because of the parking that is involved it was agreed to with the
proviso that the parking lot lights be brought up to standard and
that the $5,000 be posted to be done within 90 days. .
C/M Disraelly said since that time there have been at least two
communications from Al Miller to Mr. Fatizzi advising him that the
lights are still in violation and (here is communication dated the
end of March from the Vice President of American Electric indicating
that they have been contacted by the owner regarding the increased
parking lot lighting and nothing has taken place yet. C/M Disraelly
said the lighting there is very poor and he is asking Council to re-
consider, based on the Resolution that has been prepared; that the
handicapped parking spaces be provided, that the hedge as required
by Code be planted on McNab and Brookwood Blvd. and that the parking
lot lights be brought up to standard with a cash bond of $5,000 to be
posted with the Council to guarantee completion.
C/M Disraelly said under those conditions Council would waive the
- 19 - 4/14/82
/pm
parking spaces subject to future parking in the bays at no greater
than 1 to 200.
Peter Fatizzi said at the time, it was his recollection, that the
parking lot lights were involved and attempts were being made to have
this corrected. He said the owner was told when he appeared at City
Hall that all he had to do was put up two signs that say "No Parking
At Night" he would not have to be concerned about the lights. Mr.
Fatizzi said he knew this was not so.
Mr. Fatizzi said when work was done it was more than a year before
anyone said this was inadequate. This should have been inspected.
He said the gentleman that owns the property is just looking for some
guidance and is aware the corrections must be made. C/M Disraelly
said there is an Ordinance that stipulates how much illumination is
needed and, evidently, when a permit was pulled to install lights on
the building the lighting inspector did not check what the illumination
would do to the parking lot. This is what must be corrected.
Mr. Fatizzi said American Electric will not do anything there because
of the restrictions of the City of Tamarac. They said they will only
do something if they have an Engineer's plan showing them exactly what
they have to do. C/M Disraelly said he has a memo dated April 2 from
Al Miller advising Pat Kiley that the owner of Tamarac Professional
Plaza was to meet with Mr. Fatizzi and an electrical contractor. Mr.
Fatizzi said he has never seen this contractor but has talked to him
on the phone and he said at this point they want a letter of intent to
show what must be done.
Mr. Fatizzi said the owner should get another electrician. C/M Disraelly
said the City needs a $5,000 bond and will allow 90 days to do this;
if this is not done then the City will find a contractor who will do
this. C/M Disraelly provided Mr. Fatizzi with a copy of the Resolution
to show the owner exactly what is required there. C/M Disraelly MOVED
the ADOPTION of Temp,Reso. #2247, SECONDED by C/M Krantz.

Temp. Ord. #976 on first reading
subject to receipt of the audit
prior to the second reading.
Alan Ruf read the Ordinance by title. C/M Disraelly said the word
"Non" appearing before the word'"Severability" in the title should be
struck. C/M Disraelly said he spoke with BPI yesterday because the
City has received their fees but had not received their renewal fee
for $150 which they said would be mailed out express from Houston.
It was received and the City has their bond in the amount of $2,500
but does not have an update of their insurance certificate nor of their
policy.
Carol Evans had a copy of the Certificate of Self -Insurance certified
by the State Department; the only thing missing is the annual audit.
C/M Disraelly said Council could pass this .subject to receipt
of the audit prior to the second reading, and strike the word "Non" in
the title on Line 7, so MOVED. SECONDED by V/M Massaro. V/M Massaro

Franchise - Temp. Ord. #977 - Discussion and possible action to
renew this franchise for one year. First Reading.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: TABLED
until the City Manager receives
more information.
Alan Ruf said it was pointed out to him that the word "Non-Severability"
belongs. Section 3 of the Ordinance says that if anything is invalid
then there should be a repeal of the Ordinance which is exactly the
opposite of what he normally reads.
Alan Ruf read the Ordinance by title. The City Manager said it would
be staff's recommendation that although contact was made advising them
of the requirements in order for renewal, that a second communication
be made to the company inquiring as to whether or not they wish to
continue holding the franchise with the City. There has .been no
activity in the past year and the City has not received a renewal fee,
an audit report or a record of the fees paid. Their insurance expires
January 1, 1983 so it would not be for a full year. C/M Disraelly MOVED
that this item be TABLED until the City Manager has contacted Industrial
Waste Services to determine if, in fact, they want a renewal of this
franchise.
The City Manager said it appears that if they were interested in
terminating any possible collection services for commercial establish-
ments in the City they would be requesting a refund of the cash bond
that the City is holding. They have not done either, applied for
renewal or applied to have the cash bond returned.

C/M Disraelly said that the Assistant City Clerk called to his attention
that in the discussion of Mr. Fatizzi's problem there is a publication
cost of $112.80 which is still due. They did receive a check in the
amount of $59.96 from American Drywall, they assume this is partial
payment of the above publication cost of $112.80. The Finance Depart-
ment is holding that check until they determine whether the publication
costs have been paid.
C/M Disraelly said it should be called to Mr. Fatizzi's attention that
in addition to the Resolution that there is an additional cost of

26. Durbin Paper Corp. -- Temp. Ord. #981 - Discussion and possible
action to grant a non-exclusive newspaper collection franchise.
First Reading.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED
Temp. Ord. # 981 on first reading.
Alan Ruf read the Ordinance by title. C/M Disraelly said they have
had a collector that has not been collecting for four to six weeks,
they have not heard from him. The City Manager has sent him a letter
notifying him that he is in violation of his contract and the City
has since come to an agreement with Durbin Paper Corp.who will be the
acceptor of the paper and will provide the collector. C/M Disraelly
said that there has been some newspaper publicity about this and the
President's Council is aware of this.
V/M Massaro asked if they picked up in the City previously. C/M Dis-
really said 'no'. V/M Massaro said the papers are still standing in
her section. C/M Disraelly said he advised Durbin Paper about this
yesterday. The City Manager indicated that this is only the second
Wednesday that they have attempted to pick up in the City and it is
a new route. She said she suspects the problem in V/M Massaro's area
is that that area will be subject to a future split. There is a
collector through one of the armed services organizations who will be
doing a portion of Mainlands 6 and it is possible that they confused
this area which is on the borderline. This will have to be clarified
with him.
Laura Stuurmans said this individual has been a collector in the City
and has been negotiating with the City about a month longer than Durbin.
They have been collecting in the adjacent unincorporated area and the
City began negotiations with them as a result of finding them scavenging
from the City's program. They have very limited capabilities and they
are happy to participate in the City franchise. They will only be able
to collect a portion of Mainlands 6 that is immediately adjacent to
Rock Island Rd., Mainlands. 8, 9, 10 and Vanguard and Woodlands.
V/M Massaro said she personally is not happy with this and other people
from her area are upset. C/M Disraelly said the garbagemen have been
advised to pick these papers up. C/M Disraelly urged that this program
be given a try since there is ecology and non=tipping fees involved as
well as landfill and the saving of trees.
C/M Disraelly MOVED that the proper City officials be authorized to
sign the contract with Durbin, SECONDED by C/M Krantz.
Morton Student said he is having a problem in Lime Bay concerning papers
and C/M Disraelly said there are containers for paper to be placed in

granted on March 10, 1982, regarding a ground sign in the median
of Sago Palm Boulevard.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED RESOLUTION NO. PASSED.
Temp. Reso. #2248 subject to 45
days notification of cancellation
of policy.
Alan Ruf read the Resolution by title. Harold Blank, Chairman of the
Beautification Committee of the Woodlands Homeowners Association said
they applied for a sign waiver that was granted on March 10 with certain
provisions.
- 23 ` 4/14/82
/pm
Mr. Blank said the City is to be named in Section 2(.b) of the Reso-
lution 82-62. The City is to be named as the additional insured on the
liability insurance policy covering bodily injuries on property damage
arising out of the location and construction of the sign and associated
beautification; With coverage for the a,«ount of not less than
$100,000 per person, $200,000 per accident and $100,000 property damage
for at least five years. This is to remain in effect for as long as
the sign remains in the median. The insurance policy or binder is to
be approved by the City Attorney prior to the issuance of any permit
for the sign.
Mr. Blank said the policy is to provide that the City shall be given
written notice by the insurance carrier for at least 45 days prior to
cancellation. Mr. Blank said he signed a Hold -Harmless Agreement with
the City Attorney at the time, Arthur Birken, to keep the City harm
free. Mr. Blank said he has an insurance policy covering the City of
Tamarac not for $100,000 or $200,000 but up to $1,000,000 covering both
the City and the Woodlands Homeowners Association. The only question
that came about, Mr. Blank said, is the five years pre -payment which he
discussed with Arthur Birken and he sent a memo to City Council granting
approval of a one year payment in advance.
V/M Massaro said this insurance for any specific date has been a
problem with the City and they would like to see all bonds from now on
not have an expiration date but that it read that before any policy can
be cancelled that the insurance company notify the City 30 or 60 days
beforehand. V/M Massaro asked Mayor Falck if it is possible for them
to write a policy whereby coverage will continue and that it cannot be
cancelled. Mayor Falck said 'yes' and this policy is in order.
C/M Disraelly MOVED APPROVAL of Temp. Reso. #2248, Section 1 to read,
"That the waiver for the sign Ordinance #80-34 as granted by Resolution
#82-62 is hereby confirmed; however, the term of the insurance policy
required to be (inaudible) of the City in Section 2 b) of this Resolution
shall require forty-five (45) days notice of cancellation or expiration
of the policy by the carrier". SECONDED by C/M Krantz.

41. Waiver of Seawalls - Discussion and possible action on a request
to waive the requirement for seawalls on Lot 51 in Woodlands
Section 4 (located at the corner of Woodlands Boulevard and
Umbrella Tree Lane).
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED
with conditions.
Seymour Sadkin, a resident, said he is going to build his own house
on Woodlands Blvd. and Umbrella Tree Lane and he is requesting the
waiver of the seawall at the rear of the property. C/M Disraelly
asked Mr. Sadkin if Council waives the seawall would he widen the
canal to the survey line of his property? Mr. Sadkin said he does
not know if he can do this since he does not want problems with his
neighbor.
V/M Massaro said this property has been filled in and this should be
removed to the property line. She said she has no objection to waiving
the seawall because it does abut a culvert crossing and on the other
side is a piece of property that will be about the same depth as this
one when it is excavated to the property line; the slope will have to
be on Mr. Sadkin's property. The edge of water must be the edge of the
property line.
Mr. Sadkin said he has no objection but the only problem is if he
excavates there will be about an eleven foot differential between the
property to the north of him. V/M Massaro said that is their problem
if they are beyond the property line and they will have to excavate at

some point in time. C/M Disraelly said the reason for the canals is
water retention and when they are narrowed the water retention is
reduced. He said there was a problem April 29, 1979 in the Woodlands
area and they are trying to prevent this from happening again.
V/M Massaro said the City Engineer will have to determine how much
work will have to be done in the canal itself. Mr. Sadkin pointed out
that this is the last house that will be built in Woodlands on this
canal and according to his surveyor no other house has the property
line as the water's edge, and he feels this is unfair. V/M Massaro
said they are having problems in Woodlands with drainage and anyone
coming in is being required to do this. She said any developers in the
City who develop a piece of property must pay $35,000 an acre for the
percentage that they are not giving for retention. The City requires
5% retention on each property. The City Engineer will determine how
much excavation must be done in the canal itself to get the slope ac
required by Ordinance. V/M Massaro MOVED that this property be granted
the waiver of the seawall subject to them excavating to the property line
and to conform to the sketch as required in our Ordinance and that the
slope be on his property, SECONDED by C/M Disraelly.

and possible action to regulate the possession of teflon-coated
bullets known as "KTW bullets".
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED
Temp. Ord. #973 on first reading.
Alan Ruf read the Ordinance by title. C/M Disraelly said he requested
this Ordinance based on some that had been passed in surrounding cities.
He said, although there are no known gun shops in this City, this
Ordinance would protect residents from gun users who purchase these
bullets in other cities.
'ape
7 V/M Massaro said she does not understand how this Ordinance will control
what type of bullets someone will use. Mayor Falck said he
reels one or the advantages to this would be if someone is carrying
these and they are stopped for any reason there is more of an oppor-
tunity to make the charges stand. C/M Disraelly said the language is
to "possess or use" these bullets and it is the "possession" that he
is trying to avoid. It is just more protection.
C/M Disraelly MOVED the APPROVAL of Tem . Ord. #973 on first reading,

by Consent. APPROVED Temp. Reso.

the media is supporting this jail annex. Mayor Falck said there are
homes there with senior citizens and this would be the worse type of
facility to put there.

45. City Council Reports
C/M Krantz said on April 1 he attended a meeting of the Fire
Committee of the Bureau of Rules and Appeals. He is the Council
Liaison to the Fire Department and one of the items discussed was
the introduction of fee schedules for annual fire inspections.
The cities of Davie, Cooper City and Pembroke Pines have an
Ordinance which will give the City added income which could be
used to increase the personnel of the Fire Department and give
the City more inspections to comply with the Code.
C/M Krantz said Tamarac has a mutual agreement with Lauderhill
and Lauderdale Lakes and the Chief has received a copy of a
contract from North Lauderdale. This is helpful in an emergency
situation. Neighboring cities can help.
C/M Disraelly said several people have written to the Chief of
Police commending the police on their efforts especially in
emergency situations.
- He attended a meeting for a Block Home Program to protect the
children. A program using puppets for Grades K-5 as a Crime
Watch was suggested and this seems very useful. Dave Harris
will be working with the Tamarac Elementary School on this.
- The City Manager advised him that the paper was not picked up
today; however, they will be back this afternoon to Mainlands 7
and 20. The last billing was approximately 20 tons of paper
