10. MOTIQH TO ADOPT TempRegg- #6041 approving a Declaration
of Restrictions relating to food and on -premises consumption
of alcoholic beverages at MAINLANDS CENTER (tabled on
10/23/91). (located at the northeast corner of University
Drive and NW 58 Street)
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION, RESOLUTION R-92--6-PASSED
APPROVED
City Attorney Ruf read Tamp. Reso. #6041 by title.
V/M Bender MOVED to APPROVE Temp. Reso. #6041, SECONDED by
C/M Katz.
Kelly Carpenter, Director of Community Development, said on August
28, 1991, the City Council acted on a request by Nick Cassas, to
remove the deed restrictions on his parcel at 5800 N. University
Drive. She said during the discussion of that item, Council
clearly reflected their desire to have no on -site preparation of
foods but when the Motion was made on the changes to the deed
restriction, the Motion simply stated, "Prohibiting on -site
consumption of alcohol" and did not reflect the tenor of the
discussion regarding no on -site preparation of food.
Ms. Carpenter said when the Staff went back to work with Mr.
Cassas on formulating the final deed restriction, the Staff
included the language, "No on -site preparation of food". She said
Mr. Cassas objected to this because the Motion did not include
that language. She said the minutes clearly reflected that this
was Council's intention.
Ms. Carpenter said this item has been reagendized after being
discussed with Mr. Cassas, who has agreed to include this in his
deed restriction. She said the Staff is currently satisfied that
the deed restriction reflects the conversation of Council, as
reflected in the minutes, and the actual Motion. She recommended
approval.
C/M Schumann requested that this be restated for clarification.
Ms. Carpenter said Mr. Cassas wants to be able to put a grocery
store or a drug store which is permitted to sell gum, Slimfast,
beans or any other form of nonprepared food. She said Mr. Cassas
had requested that the entire deed restriction be lifted and when
Council heard the item on August 28, 1991, the minutes reflect two
items of discussion.
Ms. Carpenter said the first one was no on -premises consumption of
alcohol and the other was no on -site preparation of food. She said
the Council moved that his deed restriction would allow no on -
premises consumption of alcohol and told Staff to come back with a
deed restriction that reflected this. She said Staff drafted the
deed restriction and Mr. Cassas objected to no on -site preparation
of food because it was not reflected in the Motion.
Ms. Carpenter said Mr. Cassas had agreed that the Council's
direction was no on -site preparation of food and is included in
the deed restriction.
C/M Schumann asked what would stop Mr. Cassas from coming before
the Board of Adjustment and requesting a variance if this is
passed and Ms. Carpenter said this is a "use" discussion and the
Board of Adjustment is precluded under Florida Law from looking at
"use" issues. She said this is reserved for the governing body.
C/M Schumann asked if the removal of this restriction will allow
him to sell packaged liquors in there and Ms. Carpenter said, yes.
City Council Regular Meeting
01/22/92/KJ
Page 6
Mayor Abramowitz said one of Mr. Cassas' objections was that the
drug store does not have the right to sell a package of gum. He
said Council had made the decision that they would allow this as
long as there was no on -premises consumption of food or liquor.
C/M Schumann asked if this will extend to Mr. Cassas and his heirs
if this deed restriction is lifted and City Attorney Ruf said this
restriction runs with the land and will be recorded in the public
records of Broward County. City Attorney Ruf said Mr. Cassas
signed a Declaration of Restrictions and if Council approves this,
he requested that it be subject to the delivery of the executed
original for recording purposes.
C/M Schumann questioned the qualifications that would determine an
item as being prepared on the premises and Ms. Carpenter said a
business that prepares food on the premises must have double sinks
in order to meet the Health Department standards which the City
interprets as on -site preparation of food. She said Mr. Cassas
would be permitted to put in a Dunkin Donuts that prepares the
donuts elsewhere and ships them in for selling.
Mayor Abramowitz said the original intent was that Mr. Cassas
could not market his property due to the deed restriction as it
was.
C/W Glasser asked if a hot dog grill would be considered as food
preparation and Ms. Carpenter said a hot dog grill or coffee pot
are not considered preparation, but if a tub of lettuce and other
items are utilized to make sandwiches, and they have a double
sink, this then is considered to be on -site preparation.
Ms. Carpenter said Mr. Cassas has agreed to the restriction as
presented.
TAPE 2
C/M Katz said Arthur's Drugs is a part of a chain of drug stores
and this location is the only one that has a restriction on the
bottom of their advertisements stating, "Certain items are not
included for sale". He said he does not feel that someone should
be prohibited from conducting their business. He said Council has
limited them to no on -site consumption of alcoholic beverages or
preparation of food.

APPROVED with a one year warranty bond.
City Attorney Ruf read Temp. Reso. #6204 by title. it
C/M Katz MOVED to APPROVE Temp. Reso. #6204, SECONDED by
C/W Glasser.
Mike Couzzo, Director of Public Services, said this was a planned
project by the Department of Public Services, which is the
Rehabilitation of Water Filter #3 and is a filter that is used for
settling out solids and water in treating the water so that the
City can provide potable water to the residents of the community.
He said the project was budgeted for $65,000 and the City received
11
City Council Regular Meeting
01/22/92/KJ
Page 7
a number of bids. He said the low bid is being recommended at the
amount of $39,952.
C/M Katz requested that a warranty bond with terms and duration be
included with this.
City Attorney Ruf said a warranty bond is part of the bid
specifications as long as the City Attorney's office receives
those prior to the initiation of any activity by the bidder.
Mr. Couzzo said the performance bond is provided after the award
of the bid is made and the actual contract is executed, based upon
the satisfactory receipt of the bond.
C/M Katz said a performance bond is different than a warranty
bond. He said a performance bond is going to cover the fact that
if the work does not get done, the City will get paid and the work
can be done by someone else. He said a warranty bond is to
warranty the work they are going to do for the City.
Assistant City Manager McDermott said the warranty bond comes
after the performance bond.
C/M Katz said he wants it mentioned that the City will get a one
year warranty bond.
Mayor Abramowitz asked if this follows the normal procedures and
Assistant City Manager McDermott said, yes. Further discussion was
held regarding the receipt of a warranty bond.
Assistant City Manager McDermott explained the bidding process.
Mr. Couzzo said the warranty may exceed the period of one year. He
said this project is required by the covenants of the bonds for
the utilities.

APPROVED
City Attorney Ruf read Temp. Reso. #6205 by title.
C/M Katz MOVED to APPROVE Temp. Reso. #6205, SECONDED by
V/M Bender.
Mr. Couzzo said this is a requirement of the bond covenants to
provide an annual utility analysis which is due prior to August.
He said the normal procedure is to utilize the services of the
City's consulting engineer. He said it was decided during the
budget process that the City would do a complete utility rate
analysis this year, and in doing so, the City would be able to
utilize this report as opposed to going out for another consulting
report which would cost the City approximately $9,000.
Mr. Couzzo said this should give the City a five year perspective
as to the state of the utilities and look at revenue projections
for the next three years. He said this utility indexing would
annually adjust the utility rates to a percentage to keep up with
a cost of the maintenance as opposed to annually reviewing it and
going through the additional expense.
Mayor Abramowitz asked if this would save the City a substantial
amount of money over a period of years and Mr. Couzzo agreed.
City Council Regular Meeting
01/22/92/KJ

Mr. Couzzo said this project was handled under the Competitive
Negotiations Act with the Selection Committee, who analyzed a
number of firms and approved the,selection of this firm. He said
the price was negotiated and this is within the budget the City
has available for this project.
C/M Schumann asked if there is an in-house employee that can
review these records and Mr. Couzzo explained the procedure that
will be done for these reports.
Mr. Couzzo said it is a requirement of the bond covenant to hire
an outside firm to handle this.
C/M Schumann asked if the City Attorney recommends approval of
this and City Attorney Ruf said, yes.
Assistant City Manager McDermott said copies were made of this
prior to circulation but have been approved by all.

to amend Ordinance 0-82-43 (previous zoning Petition

commercial flexibility for the southeast corner of Nob Hill
Road and Kings Point private Clubhouse Drive to conform to
the Broward County hand Use Plan. Petition #68-Z-91
ORDINANCE 0-92-10-PASSED
Public Hearing was held.
APPROVED on second and final reading.
City Attorney Ruf read Temp. Ord. #1582 by title.
C/M Katz MOVED to APPROVE Temp. Ord. #1582, SECONDED by
V/M Bender.
Ms. Carpenter said this is zoning case #68-Z-91 and the applicant
is the City of Tamarac. She said when the City submitted its Land
Use Plan to Broward County for certification, Broward County found
several discrepancies in the maps. She said the County does not
recognize the zoning on the Kings Point Model Sales Office because
the language rezoning it in 1982 does not include the language,
"using commercial flexibility".
Ms. Carpenter said in 1981, the City agreed to a stipulation with
F & R Builders concerning the rezoning of this property from R-4A
to B-5 to accommodate the model sales office. She said when the
City passed that ordinance in 1982, it should have included the
language, "using commercial flexibility", since it is a
residentially designated parcel being used legally as a commercial
use. She said this language needs to be included in the original
ordinance.
Mayor Abramowitz said there are many small errors which need to be
corrected and Broward County finds them.
Ms. Carpenter said this is a housekeeping matter.

$76,765,00 for West Point Water Main Extension Project.
SXXOPSiS OF ACTIQN_i RESOLUTION R-92-9-PASSED
Agendized by Consent.
APPROVED
City Attorney Ruf said the Engineering Department has determined
that a performance bond in the amount of $76,765.00 guaranteeing
public improvements associated with West Point Water Main
Extension Project, will expire on January 31, 1992. He said the
work has not been completed to the satisfaction of the Engineering
Department but is substantially completed.
City Attorney Ruf said the Engineering Department has requested
that the City prepare a resolution that either gives them
authority to call the Letter of Credit prior to January 31, 1992,
or if they find that the work is finalized, allowing them to
accept a one year warranty bond of $27,199.88. He said Susan
Motley of Ruden, Barnett is present to represent the developer.
Susan Motley, attorney for Ruden, Barnett on behalf of the West
Point DRI Project, said the construction work has been done and
was completed in November, 1991, but there is some additional
paperwork, some easements and getting this warranty bond to the
City. She said she will be receiving the actual warranty Letter of
Credit today and she has the executed easements. She said this is
mainly a question of getting all of the paperwork delivered to the
Engineering Department. She said the Engineering Department is
doing this in the abundance of caution, which is understandable.
