Flansbaum-Talabisco announced today is Professional Administrators Day, and
extended her thanks to those who work behind the scenes. Mayor Flansbaum-
Talabisco reported that on Monday Tamarac formed a collaboration with the Federation
of Broward County, and they asked the City of Tamarac to host a small luncheon for
dignitaries and the Mayor of a town in Israel. Tamarac was chosen because we are a.
wonderful City. Last evening was the first of the eight weekly sessions for Tamarac
University. Over 100 residents applied and only 25 were accepted for this first session.
Mayor Flansbaum-Talabisco said it warms her heart to see the way this Commission
reaches out to the community in ways never before done, and the community loves it.
This Commission welcomes public input and new and fresh faces getting involved in our
community.
Commissioner Portner had no report.
Commissioner Atkins -Grad said one week ago she attended the ArtServe show at the
Tamarac Community Center. Everyone was enchanted with the dancing and many
asked for more activities of this sort in the future. Commissioner Atkins -Grad attended
the grand opening of a Kosher Food Market on University Drive and a three day
seminar in Orlando for elected officials hosted by the National League of Cities, which
was very informative. Commissioner Atkins -Grad got to share ideas and meet other
elected officials. Tamarac is considered to be a very innovative and progressive City.
Vice Mayor Sultanof said he received a letter from a disabled gentleman, praising Bill
Franqui, who went to the gentleman's house to assist him with issues concerning water.
This Commission tries its best to tighten its belt with regard to water conservation. The
Mayor and City Commission do everything possible to bring the best to the residents
and surrounding cities try to follow our lead. No city can survive without development
and redevelopment. Vice Mayor Sultanof urged the residents to take advantage of what
this community has to offer, and thanked staff for a wonderful job.
Commissioner Dressler acknowledged community leaders in the audience from District
4; Ginger Abraham from Woodmont and Barbara McNeil from Heathgate/Sunflower.
Commissioner Dressler spoke of Temporary Resolution 11190 on this morning's
consent agenda, and said the COPS program is important as it puts another set of eyes
on the road to assist our police in keeping us safe.
3. City Attorne : City Attorney Goren spoke regarding defense of indigents
charged with County Code violations. City Attorney Goren said he met with the Chief
Judge and Public Defender Howard Finkelstein regarding a letter sent to them by the
City Attorneys. Ft. Lauderdale is considering legal action against the public defender.
While Tamarac has few defendants that would fall under this scenario, Tamarac will be
affected. It would only take one defendant to become plaintiff in a lawsuit who believes
his/her rights are not being properly cared for to cause problems for the City. City
Attorney Goren said he would come back to the Commission with further information.
City Attorney Goren said he is studying the issue regarding fishing in public rights of
ways and canals in Tamarac and has reviewed this with Community Development and
BSO. It may be necessary to amend our code to better address the issue.

The Veterans Affairs Assembly will be held at the Tamarac Community Center this
evening at 6:30. City Manager Miller thanked Vice Mayor Sultanof for his interest and
attention to this event. The next Twilight Concert will be held on May 11 th at the
Tamarac Sports Complex. The Hurricane Expo will take place on May 12th at the
Tamarac Community Center. Water restrictions are in effect and working well in
Tamarac. Our water use is down about 1 million gallons this year and Code

using the same amount of water we used in 1994, and congratulated the City of
Tamarac residents on their water conservation efforts.

questioned hours of operation for the stores on Sundays. Vice Mayor Sultanof asked if
Rotelli's Restaurant would dispense alcohol and what time they would open. Vice
Mayor Sultanof spoke of the Church's agreement to enlarge the median on Commercial
Boulevard separating Sunrise from Tamarac and said the applicant for this project was
to pay $6,000 per year for the next five years for landscaping. Community Development
Director Bramley recommended the contribution for medians and landscaping become
recorded as part of the site plan approval. Commissioner Portner asked Community
Development Director Bramley to check with Chick-Fil-A to see if they would change the
color of their building to conform with Starbucks and the retail shops. Commissioner
Portner questioned traffic impacts. Malcolm Butters, Applicant explained the traffic
study information is based on hard data. Anthony Quevedo, Civil Engineer spoke of the
I.T.E. manual for traffic counts which is used throughout the country and said there is no
room for interpretation when using these standards. Mr. Butters added this plaza was
put off until now because the stores needed sufficient traffic in the park to support the
businesses. Commissioner Dressler confirmed staff is satisfied with the traffic study
and added Chick-Fil-A's structural design is a branding issue and they will not change
their design; however, Commissioner Dressler encouraged Community Development
Director Bramley to follow through with Commissioner Portner's request. Mayor
Flansbaum-Talabisco questioned the hours of operation for the businesses and Mr.
Butters said with the exception of Chick-Fil-A, which closes on Sundays, the stores
would be open seven days a week. Mayor Flansbaum-Talabisco said she hoped all
residents in the City would avail themselves of the stores at Westpoint Plaza.
Commissioner Portner questioned whether McDonalds put up stores with arches in
Coral Springs and City Attorney Goren explained Coral Springs has a unique land
development code which McDonalds did not challenge. Mr. Butters said he, also, would
contact Chick-Fil-A to see if they would use a different tone of beige and the $5,000 per
year for the next five years will be incorporated into the file. Mayor Flansbaum-
Talabisco opened the public hearing and with no one wishing to speak, closed the
public hearing. On roll call Mayor Flansbaum-Talabisco voted "yes", Commissioner
Dressler "yes", Vice Mayor Sultanof "yes", Commissioner Partner "yes", and

Page 7 of 10
Expressway will be positively affected by the ATMS and asked when the system would
be put into place; Mr. Ali responded as soon as the developer goes through the process
and all paperwork is completed which should be about six months. Attorney Gerry
Knight, representing the applicant, introduced Bruce and Shawn Chait of Prestige
Homes and Jay Huebner, Project Engineer. Mr. Knight reviewed the process the
projects have gone through to date. Mayor Flansbaum-Talabisco opened the public
hearing for items 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14. The following people spoke in favor of the

Mayor Flansbaum-Talabisco questioned the water supply and the canals. Utilities
Director Gagnon said this was looked at and the City has a plan to use water from the
Florida Aquifer; funding for a reverse osmosis plant will come from impact fees.
Commissioner Portner asked who would maintain the canals and Assistant Public
Works Director/City Engineer Doherty said they would be maintained by the new
Homeowner Association for the development. Vice Mayor Sultanof said everyone will
benefit from the canals. Mr. Knight said this has been a long process and City staff and
the Commission worked with the developer addressing the public's concerns. Mr. Chait
thanked the Mayor and City Commission, City Manager, Deputy City Manager and staff
for working with Prestige Homes. Mayor Flansbaum-Talabisco said the developments
would bring in about $4.5 million in taxes; the rear elevations will be worked through and
the conditions of approval and deed restrictions will hold the developer to his
commitments. There will be neighborhood meetings regarding traffic calming and the
Mayor and Commissioners will be kept abreast of how things are moving forward.
Commissioner Portner said this is the first time in 30 years that a project of this size is
being built in Tamarac and he wishes Prestige Homes the best. Vice Mayor Sultanof
thanked Community Development Director Bramley for watching over things as they
moved forward and said we need the tax benefit from this redevelopment. Mayor
Flansbaum-Talabisco said this is a complex issue for the Mayor and City Commission,
staff, our new Community Development Director and the community. The Mayor and
City Commission must do what is best for the whole community and at the end of the
day if one can strike a balance in trying to come together with something like this
project, that is what counts.
On roll call Commissioner Atkins -Grad voted "yes", Commissioner Portner "yes", Mayor
Flansbaum-Talabisco "yes", Vice Mayor Sultanof "yes", and Commissioner Dressler
