on Friday February 2 1990 at 9 45 A M in the Council Chambers ROLL CALL PRESENT Mayor Norman Abramowitz Vice Mayor H Larry Bender Councilman Jack Stelzer Councilman Bruce Hoffman Councilman Henry Rohr ALSO PRESENT John P Kelly City Manager Alan F Ruf, Interim City Attorney Patricia Marcurio Office Manager, City Clerks Office Susan Mulligan Secretary Special Services PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE Mayor Abramowitz called for the Pledge of Allegiance 1 DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION on proposal to extend City of Tamarac s consumption use permit to cover homeowner and condominium associations for purposes of compliance with the South Florida Water Management District s mandatory water restrictions SYNOPSIS OF ACTION APPROVAL was given for the extension to Tamarac homeowner associations and condominium associations giving them the opportunity to participate under the City s umbrella consumption use permit City Manager Kelly said when the water restrictions became imminent and variances were applied for by many of the associations in the City Councilman Stelzer noted that many of the associations do not have consumptive use permits He said the City of Tamarac, as a public entity, has a consumptive use permit He said over the past several years it has been the City s policy to provide follow-up permits to the individual homeowner associations He said when the associations went to the South Florida Water Management District to get the permits for the variances, it was determined that the associations did not have the individual consumptive use permits He said Jim Jackson of the South Florida Water Management District has been extremely helpful in working with the City of Tamarac and he has advised the City that there are approximately 60 homeowner and condominium associations in Tamarac that would need consumptive use permits to be issued by the South Florida Water Management District at a cost of $100 00 each plus the variance permits requests and processing fee would Total $6400 00 Special Meeting City Council of Tamarac, Florida February 2, 1990 Page 2/SCM City Manager Kelly said they would have to pay for these permits He said the alternate approach would be for the City to extend its consumptive use permit as an umbrella to cover all those homeowner associations He said there would not be any additional costs to the City and it would save the associations the costs but the paperwork and follow-up He said this is a good solution for the City and for the South Florida Water Management District Jim Jackson of the South Florida Water Management District, said as the City Manager has explained in the process of going through the first major water shortage of this magnitude for Southeast Florida, as might be expected, having approximately a million people under mandatory water restrictions, certain problems occur along the way He said one problem is finding out certain permits were not obtained a long time ago He said in fairness to the City and the Developers prior to 1977 permits were not required for corsumptive use He said as of June 1989 the South Florida Water Management District began charging a fee for the permits at lower costs He said there is an additional component for having to go back and getting a permit which is a coat which was not there previously Mr Jackson said for a homeowners association or any resident who Gses more than 100,000 gallons a day, the permit fee is $800 00 He said for the District, the cooperation of the City has been great He said to work as a umbrella would require the City filing an application for permit with the District He said he wanted to make one technical distinction from what th City Manager indicated He said the South Florida Water Management District would request a separate permit for irrigation use not a modification of the current permit for consumptive use Mr Jackson said there are certain components in the application, the easiest one is the basic generic information and he can work with the City Manager a Office to take care of this He said this would get the permit on file with the South Florida Water Management District and the variances and permits can be processed in a much easier and expeditious fashion He said what will be needed is information about each individual homeowners association s irrigation system, i e homeowners association name contact pcint and phone number where there pump is located, how many homes it serves and fow much consumption is being used He said there should be an understandirg or agreement with the City that if there was a need for additional restrictions by the District in the future, the District would direct Tamarac, as the permit holder, to do so and request each homeowner associations to comply Mr Jackson said it is not required to have the homeowner a or concominium associations approach with the umbrella of the City He said each association is free to do their own He said there are several developments Within the City that have their own including Woodmont being the largest cf those tnd there are a couple of others that have their individual permit He said the District s intent is to work with Tamarac to make the overall process a lit e less painful and more organized Special Meeting City Council of Tamarac Florida February 2, 1990 Page 3/SCM Mayor Abramowitz said to clarify for the public, he cannot begin to thank Mr Jackson because most of the people do not understand what he personally has done He said Mr Jackson had 500 committments He said two years ago there w a s a p r o b 1 e m a n d t h a South Florida Water Management District has cured Tamaxac I§ floods problem to the best Of their ability He said when he a n d J i m Jackson m e t a f e w weeks ago it came to their attention that these permits were needed and it was mentioned that the legal staff of the District was requesting Mr Jackson to put out a Cease and Decist Order which meant that everyone would have to stop immediately He said he unplored Mr Jackson to not get the public excited He said he was not only kind to the City of Tamarac but was very understanding Mayor Abramowitz said he has called upon the Presidents of Associations to be here to work in conjuntion with the City He said he was very pleased to see an individual that cares He said he would like to write a letter on behalf of the City regarding Jim Jackson expressing the City s gratitude for his concern for the public I Councilman Rohr said he would like to know why is the reverse osmosis being considered in Florida Mr Jackson said reverse osmosis is being considered and is being used quite a bit He said a number of Cities are using reverse osmosis He said Wellington is using reverse Osmosla on a smeller scale which is less pressure He said the Cities of Plantation and Hollywood are exploring the idea He said it is more expensive to use Councilman Hoffman asked what about the individual users who have well water or draw water from the canals behind their homes He asked if they normally require a permit Mr Jackson said if the use is less then 100,000 gallons a day, a permit is not required He said if there is an ancillary use on thq property such as the back four acres used as a nursery that would require a permit He said the distinction which occurred in Tamarac is when the different homeowners associations took over the responsibility for watering not Just the common property but 220 homes with individual vidual sub -divisions Mayor Abramowitz asked City Manager Kelly to propose the appropriate language City Manager Kelly said a MOTION to APPROVE the proposal to extend to the City of Tamarac s Homeowner Condominium Associations ar opportunity to participate under the City of Tamarac umbrella permit Mr Jackson asked if the City Manager will be authorized to sign the applications �pecial Meeting, City Council of Tamarac, Florida February 2 1990 Page 4/SCM Mayor Abramowitz said if this is an administrative matter that is under his purview, otherwise, it will have to be brought to Council City Attorney Ruf said language should be added to the Motion that the City Manager is authorized to execute whatever permit and applications are required Vice Mayor Bender said there should be an extension regarding residents who have large acreage i Councilman Hoffman MOVED to APPROVE the proposal to extend to the City of Tamarac s Homeowner and Condominium Associations an opportunity to participate under the City of Tamarac a umbrella permit and to have the City Manager authorized to execute permits and applications that are required SECONDED by Councilman Stelzer Councilman Stelzer thanked Jim Jackson for all his help He asked if the City will provide individual permits to the associations so there will not be a problem with the Sheriff s Office Mr Jackson said he would like to develop a one page form that provides necessary information that the District would need on individual ho-%downers associations and a statement on which they would agree to comply with the C concerning restrictions that would be applied in the future Councilman Stelzer asked if all homeowners association and condominiums will they have to send in their applications again because they do not have variances on them Jim Jackson said the associations should contact him directly City Manager Kelly said this approval will give the associations the opportunity to participate and the City is not forcing their participation OTE ALL VOTED AYE City

City Council of Tamarac, Florida February 2, 1990 Page 5/ SCM City Manager Kelly said at the last meeting in preparation of the Agreement the City went over the individual items with Mr Gold and returned the document to him for his review and approval He said in the process there have been some concerns and minor modifications of the Agreement City Manager Kelly said on Page 3 of the Agreement under Section 3, Seventh Line, "The decision as to whether a bus shelter is needed shall rest within the CITY and not with the COMPANY He said this was redundant and should be deleted because the previous sentence states Bus shelters shall be placed maintained and relocated as required by the CITY ' City Manager Kelly said at the bottom of Page 3 under Section 3, the last line says "If electricity is unavailable at a particular location, the CITY nonetheless reserves the right to require that COMPANY place a bus shelter at such locations without electrical hookup' should be deleted He said it was expressed by the attorney s for the COMPANY that there is a liability on providing a shelter without lighting and having a resident have some harm come to them He said he felt this was reasonable City Manager Kelly said on Page 4 under Section 4, the Third Line the cost that will be paid was raised from $350 00 to $500 00 for each shelter that has been in place with the CITY and thereafter on the first working day of Janaury of each year COMPANY shall pay to the CITY a sum of $500 00 for each bus shelter installed and in place City Manager Kelly said on the Bottom of Page 4 under Section 4 the word "prorated should be included City Manager Kelly said on Page 9 just before Section 12 Accordingly, any majority transfer of shares of stock of COMPANY or a transfer of the interest of any person or operator so as to cause a change in the officers or stockholders of more than twenty (20) percent of the shares of the COMPANY shall be deemed a transfer or assignment for purposes of this section should be deleted City Manager Kelly said on Page 14 under Section 15 the last sentence has been deleted, "In the event this contract is notrenewed at the end of its term and COMPANY has not removed shelters COMPANY and CITY expressly agree that CITY shall have the option to purchase from COMPANY any or all of the bus shelters for a sum of One Hundred Fifty ($150 00) per bus shelters," because the price was unacceptable to the Company and the City had sufficient protection He said in the previous sentence it states, "In the event this contract is not renewed at the end of its term COMPANY shall have ninety (90) days within which to either remove the existing bus shelters or make other arrangements for their disposition, which other arrangements must meet with the approval of CITY ' Special Meeting, City Council of Tamarac Florida February 2 1990 page 6/ SCM I pity Manager Kelly said that Mr Gold has an executed copy for Page 16 with the Company s Corporate Seal City Manager Kelly said there are new concerns that have been raised this fiorning He said at this time Mr Gold s company will merge with Shelter Advertising of America He said Shelter Advertising is a larger Company operating in Dade County and also operating in 13 Cities in the South Florida rea He said two of the representatives are here i ayor Abramowitz asked Council to express their concerns on each item i City Manager Kelly said in the review of the proposed Company the City did a Corporate status check on the Company with Tallahasee which was checked out atisfactorily He said the Company also has been checked with the Better usiness Bureau and, from 1983 to date, is satisfactory, also with the heriff s Department Oayor Abramowitz asked if the Council approves and exeutes a Contract and the proposed new addition to the Company does not pass the qualifications, then the approval today is null and void The Council concurred �ity Manager Kelly said on the Page 3 in the Third Sentence one of the concerns raised is that it now states that the City and the Company agree that the company shall erect and maintain bus shelters to place on certain designated locations more particularly shown on Exhibit A attached to this �greement He said in Exhibit A there are some inaccuracies He said there �re a couple of shelters that are not properly located on the Exhibit and in �ddition Exhibit A designates approximately 118 existing bus stops within the City Mr Kelly said the concern was that this could be construed to mean that bus shelters shall be placed on all of those locations He said logistically it would not make sense to have bus stops at all 118 locations in the City He said mass transit would not allow that many bus stops and it would not make sense to have that many He said periodically in the past ear the Company has been asked by mass transit or DOT to remove certain stops He said there are also areas where electricity is not available and there easements are not available He said the client or the applicant is � sked in lieu of this sentence, we add thewar'd 'possible'before locations councilmen Hoffman asked if the agreement could state that the City and ompany agree that the Company may" erect shelters Mayor Abramowitz said no, he would argue against that City Manager Kelly said that language deletes the strength the City may require He said this way the locations are the question not theiCity s auttiority I Special Meeting City Council of Tamarac, Flordda February 2, 1990 Page 7/SCM Mayor Abramowitz asked if Council objected to the addition of the word "Possible" being added before locations City Manager Kelly said it should read, "The CITY and COMPANY agree that the COMPANY shall erect and maintain bus shelters to be placed at certain designated possible locations " City Mangaer Kelly said the next sentence, "Bus shelters shall be placed, maintained and relocated as required by the CITY He said the applicant is asking that the City include the words, "at mutually agreeable sites" Mayor Abramowitz objected to this language He said he does not want to have a situation where there is a contract whereby the City would have to go to court He said if DOT precludes the (City from having a shelter in a certain area or if lack of electricity prohibits the City in a certain location legally or the Company cannot do what the contract states be questioned what objection the proposed Company would have Stephen Nuellj Attorney and Vice President of Shelter Advertising of America, said he understood Mayor Abramowitz s sensitivity as a partner in this contract He said their concerns were at some point the City may have some idea to have the shelters put in everywhere He said he would like to make an alternative suggestion to the Mayor and Council which he felt would satisfy both partiesito put up a maximum of 15 for the coming year and 15 for the following year and for the third year, 5 He said the total would be approximately 50 shelters which gives the City and Council members flexibility to respond to the constituents or to the members of the community and still protects the company from a difficult position Attorney Neull said the difficult position for the company is there is no protection logistically He said if the City came to the Company and requested all 30 shelters in 3 months, physically he was not sure it could be done because permits were needed as well as surveys and location sites He said permits are not only from the City but are from the Florida Department of Transportation and the Broward County Mass Transit He said what he is suggesting would protect the Council and the company Councilman Hoffman said he understood the Company s concern He said he looks at the bus shelters as not for only a means for the Company to make a profit, but as a public service to the citizens of Tamarac He said if this did not serve the public he felt he would not personally permit the shelters He said he understood that the shelters should be put in the most traveled areas because that w-uld give the Company a great return but it is conceivable that there are arear that are not heavily travelled which Council may feel requires a shelter to serve the people in that area He said he feels that the City should be able to say where the shelters should go He said 7f the Company wishes it to be limited to not more than a stipulated amount of shelters per year, he cannot quarrel about that He said he feels that the 9 Special Meeting, City Council of Tamarac, Florida February 2, 1990 Page 8/SCM 'City should have the right to determine that He said he feels that the City should have the right to determine shelters will be placed Mayor Abramowitz said the passible locations were discussed previously He said he shared the concerns He said the limitations being addressed have nothing to do with where the shelters are placed Attorney Neull said where the Waters wnet would be the decision of the City He said what is being changed is the number of the shelters added per year Attorney Neull said if the language was changed it would be, "Bus Shelters shall be placed maintained and relocated as required by the CITY aith the COMPANY not being required to put any more that 15 shelters the first year 15 shelters the second year and five the third year ' He said these are new structures in addition to those already up City Manager Kelly said there are 21 shelters currently in operation He said there are a total of 118 stops in the City He said there will never be 118 1bus shelters in Tamarac City Attorney Ruf said the language the Council may want to consider, "Bus 'Shelters shall be placed maintained and relocated as required by the City the COMPANY s obligation toplace shelters at the request of the CITY is limited to 15 new locations in 1990 an additional 15 new locations in 1991 and an additional 5 new locations each year thereafter during the term of the contract' Attorney Neull said he had no problem with the language except if the City would multiply the total numbers it would be 125 for the last five years and 15 and 15 for the first two He said there would be approximately 75 structures I Mayor Abramowitz asked if it was impossible because it is not econcrnically feasible or because the company cannot get permits I Attorney Neull said not being able to get permits would answer the question Mayor Abramowitz said the contract states if the Company cannot get a permit from DOT or the County the Company is not obligated to install the shelters Attorney Neull agreed Vice Mayor Bender said his concerns were figures that were concerning additional structures as if the City had a fixed parameter He said the City does not have a fixed parameter He said the City has the oppert4nity to take in unincorporated areas He said these areas may require additional bus stops so the City cannot lock themselves in but has to give some thought as o expanding for the future Special Meeting City Counc 1 of Tamarac, Florida February 2 1990 Page 9/SCM Attorney Neull said he agreed but there was another factor that was not considered which was the transit authority over the years changes He said they change stops, routes or add and delta routes He said from the Company s point of view they are a business and a profit making venture He said he understood Vice Mayor Bender s point that it was service he was thinking of and not revenues He said what is suggested needs to be addressed at the time the contract goes through regarding the different areas Councilman Hoffman said he did not think it was necessary to have any requirement that the Company puts shelters in during the last two years of the contract He said the Company needs a certain number of years to get their investment back He said it was conceivable that at the end of the contract they may not get a renewal He said why should the City force the Company to put a specific number in the last two years when the Company may not be able to amortize it He said if the City extends this for seven years he thought the obligation of the Company should be a certain amount of shelters for a five year period and after that it could be a matter of negotiation Councilman Rohr said he had comment on the future of the unincorporated land which is a considerable factor that may happen He asked Attorney Neull if he had a certain figure He said he wanted to state that this should not include any additional unincorporated areas that may be annexed into the City and, at that point this should be negotiated for further discussion Attorney Neull said these figures are figures which the City would provide to the Company Mayor Abramowitz said he would like to see some figures because he would not like to see an ambiguous contract because at any given time the Company may decide they do not want to put in any more bus shelters right now He said he does not want to go to the Company and complain they have not done their work He said the faster the shelters go in would benefit the Company but he does not like to have an incomplete contract TAPE 2 Mayor Abramowitz said he would like to see a contractual obligation for the Company to install a certain amount of shelters every year Mayor Abramowitz asked if Council will accept the suggestion of Attorney Neull of 15, 15 and 5 Councilman Hoffman siad he would sugger having 15, 15, 15, 5, and 5 over five years without forcing a figure for the sixth or seventh year Mayor Abramowitz said he wanted a consensus on the figures Councilman Rohr said the figures should be 15, 15 and 5 as proposed Special Meeting, City Council of Tamarac Florida February 2, 1990 Page 10/SCM City Manager Kelly said Attorney Neull offered 15, 15 and 5 three years with no coverage for the last two years He said Attorney Ruf countered at 15, 15, 5, 5 and 5 Mayor Abramowitz said this was a seven year contract Councilman Hoffman said let the City be covered for five years Mayor Abramowitz said the language that Attorney Ruf gave is the differential for the last couple of years the City may require the Company to put to 5 bus shelters each year Attorney Neull said to put a shelter up the last thirty days before the omtract expires and have other companies bidding is not fair Mayor Abramowitz asked Attorney Neull if he felt Councilman Hoffman s suggestion was the way to proceed and Attorney Neull said yes 15, 15, 5, 5, 5 and 5 except for the last year Mayor Abramowitz said he approved and Council concurred ttorney Ruf said on Page 5 the language has been changed He said the anguage should reflect an additional five new locations each year thereafter for four years ayor Abramowitz said with the exception of the last year and Attorney Neul aid that was fine t ty Manager Kelly said on Page 5 Section 5, All bus shelters shall be built in accordance with specifications attached hereto as Exhibit "B" Any variation from the specifications contained in Exhibit B' must be approved by both CITY and COMPANY because of the propsed merger which should be consummated within the next 60 to 90 days He said this Company has a slight difference on the specifications He said he felt the difference is slight He said they could be brought back at the time of the merger or C01=11 can becept them now Mayor Abramowitz asked if he saw the specifications and City Manager Kelly isaid he has and they were sent to the Building Department Mayor Abramowitz oei d he hoped it was more stringent for the City Attorney Neull said the Company had over 650 and this Company man4fsctureres them and sells them across the country He said they meet every $ouch Florida Building Code and every State Code City Manager Kelly said when they are in Council could add this to an agenda for review The Council concurred Councilman Stelzer asked what benches this company puts in thtit shelters and Attorney Neull said the four foot bench is preferable because it seats more people looks better and lasts longer Special Meeting, City Council of Tamarac, Flordia February 2, 1990 Page 11/SCM City Manager Kelly said on Page 6, Section 7, the third sentence states, "Additionally, CITY may require the COMPANY place trash receptacles in any or all bus shelters ' Attorney Neull said they have a serious concern regarding this He said the sentence prior to this one, "The CITY s decision as to the need for trash and debris removal shall be conclusive He said the City has very strong language in which to require the Company to keep it clean He said the Company has over 650 structures and arrangements with 13 municipalities in South Florida He said no where have they been asked to put in a trash receptical He said in North Dade County there is one shelter which has a trash receptical by the private property owner right next to the bus shelter and for a period of eight months the Company would receive a memo from the County to remove the trash receptical because it was causing problems He said the Company would write back and tell the County 7t was not the Company s receptical He said the problems it causes is that it encourages people to dump trash, it is not just the cleanup, but the structure needed to be deflead because the bugs were drawn by the trash He said he would strongly recommend Council delete this language Mayor Abramowitz said the sentence before the one in question "The CITY s decision as to the need for trash and debris removal shall be conclusive He asked if the City was to contract the Company and tell them there is a problem around the shelter and wanted them to clean it up and the Company did not respond or was in continuous violation, would that indicate or be a breach of contract City Attorney Ruf said that would be a cause to cancel the contract Mayor Abramowitz said he had concerns and there were competative companies that do, in fact place trash receptacles He said he was interested in not having to pick up the phone and receive constant complaints about trash being around a bus shelter He said this City is made up of wide awake people who do daily patrols in their cars and the City does not need the hassle He said he just wants it clean Attorney Neull said the Company wnat to keep it clean also to keep the public happy Councilman Rohr asked Attorney Ruf if there were not the requirement for trash bins and if the City found the response of the Company to let the bus shelters not being kept in sanitary condition, would that be used for breach of contract Attorney Ruf said yes that would be just caus- Mayor Abramowitz asked if the City could clean it and charge the Company and Attorney Ruf said there is language concerning removal of the shelters and charging the Company Special Meeting City Council of Tamarac, Florida February 2, 1990 Page 12/SCM i Mayor Abramowitz said everyones concern is cleanliness which is very important in this City The Council concurred not to require trash recepticals City Manager Kelly said the Insurance Coverage is what the City requires He said those changes addressed all the concerns the Company had He said the last concern was raised by Councilman Stelzer on his review of Pace 14, Section 15 which proposed the term of the agreement from the data of execution to 9/30/97 to bring it through the fiscal year Councilman Stelzer said he would like to bring it to the calendar year He said he did not know how the fees would be collected for the lest year He said the fees should be collected as of December 15th payable January 13t pity Manager Kelly suggested making it through December 31st and Councilman Stelzer said he would recommend December 31, 1997 Mayor Abramowitz asked if this was alright with Attorney Neull and Attorney Neull said he was going to suggest this also i Mayor Abramowitz said notations have been made regarding the compromises and the acquiescence of Council and this is on record to be incorporated into a Contract City Manager Kelly and City Attorney Ruf said they would see that the contr t 15 prepared I Mayor
