APPROVED on First Reading. Staff was directed to undertake a study to incorporate in the legislation a fee for undeveloped land. Second reading and Public Hearing scheduled for September 8, 1993, at or after 7:30 P.M. City Attorney Kraft read Temp. Ord. #1660 by Title. V/M Katz MOVED to APPROVE Temp. Ord. #1660, SECONDED by C/M Schreiber. Mr. Couzzo said the Stormwater Management Utility Program identified monthly fees for all single-family and multi -family residential units and an administrative appeal process. He said Staff recommended a monthly $2 charge for all single-family and multi -family residential units averaging 1,830 square feet and a $4 per month charge for commercial property over 3,630 square feet. Discussion followed on a study to determine the amount of impervious surface areas on all commercial property. Mr. Couzzo said the Stormwater Management Utility Program was an Enterprise Fund and Mr. Kelly confirmed that monies could only be used for this Program and nothing else. Discussion continued on maintenance of the waterways and repairs to the streets but the first priority was cleaning up the waterways. Mr. Couzzo advised bids would go out and canals could be chemically or biologically treated, or mechanically harvested and it was a continuous process. He suggested that a Special meeting or Workshop be scheduled when bids were received. Mayor Bender said the Program should be implemented by October 1. Mr. Couzzo agreed and said mechanically harvesting was the most expedient method. C/M Abramowitz said the Program could not be implemented if the funds were not in place and he asked if funds could be transferred from elsewhere. City Attorney Kraft said the Finance Department would be made aware of the situation and discussion followed. C/M Schreiber asked why drainage was not identified in the Ordinance. Mr. Couzzo disagreed and discussion followed regarding the cost of the operation and maintenance of the Stormwater Management System. C/M Schreiber suggested that drainage should be defined and Mr. Kelly said canals were not specifically identified. C/M Schreiber asked why there was no monthly fee for undeveloped land. Mr. Couzzo said the land allowed percolation into the soil and discussion followed. C/M Schreiber suggested charging the developers an impact fee for waterway maintenance. Discussed followed on developed and undeveloped property, pervious and impervious surfaces, and the City and property owners' responsibilities regarding vacant property adjacent to a waterway. V/M Katz said a property owner should pay for a problem they caused and for making the City clean it up. Mr. Couzzo said he would incorporate pervious surfaces and charging a different monthly fee for impacting and maintaining the canals in the City Council Regular Meeting 08/25/93/PP Page 11 TAPE Ordinance. C/M Abramowitz said the City mandated that developers deeded waterways to the City and he disagreed. He said there are waterways in unincorporated Fort Lauderdale which still belong to Broward County and in other municipalities, property owners paid to maintain the canals. 4 Mr. Kelly said the City, not the property owner, should properly maintain the canals and discussion continued regarding the property owner and impervious surfaces. He agreed with V/M Katz and suggested proceeding as soon as possible with regard to exploring undeveloped land. He added currently there was no funding available and nothing in the Contingency Fund for the Program. He said he would speak with Mary Blasi, Finance Director, and he suggested obtaining a short-term loan. Mr. Couzzo confirmed that Staff would assess undeveloped parcels and amend the Ordinance to include a monthly fee for said parcels. Mayor Bender agreed. City Attorney Kraft stated the Ordinance had to be passed before the Resolution.

C/M Abramowitz said Broward County was authorized to impose an additional gas tax. Discussion was held on the percentage splits to Broward County and each municipality and what each penny of tax brought to the City of Tamarac. It was noted that Broward County could impose a $.01 tax and nothing would be shared and an additional $.01 tax could be imposed and shared. C/M Abramowitz discussed an Interlocal Agreement between each municipality and Broward County and said 51% of the population of each municipality and the Interlocal Agreement had to be identical. He said if a municipality defaulted, Broward County had the right to request a higher percentage split. C/M Abramowitz discussed a meeting with the Broward League of Cities, Florida League of Cities and Broward County. He said discussion was held on the formula used to calculate the percentage splits with further discussion on the Interlocal Agreement between Broward County and the City of Tamarac. He said discussion concerned the money which would come back to the City of Tamarac, the $.03 per gallon increase and the quarterly percentage split. C/M Schreiber asked C/M Abramowitz and Broward County to find out why gasoline prices were higher in Broward County than other Counties in Florida. Discussion followed and Mayor Bender referred to Temp. Reso. #6523 City Council Regular Meeting 08/25/93/PP Page 12 which would APPROVE the $.01 per gallon increase and the revised Resolution was devoid of any amount. City Attorney Kraft said Temp.
