Kelly, City Manager Dina McDermott, Assistant City Manager Mitchell S. Kraft, City Attorney Kelly Carpenter, AICP, Director of Community Development Phyllis Polikoff, Secretary 1. PRESENTATION AND DISCUSSION on proposal for bus depot at Visual Graphics site. Finlay B. Matheson, representing Visual Graphics Corp., advised that the Broward County School Board was .interested in leasing he property as a storage area for 150 school buses. He said the roperty was originally purchased as Heavy -Industrial but was rezoned to Light -Industrial. Mr. Matheson said the buses would be stored on Tract A and personal autos would be parked on Tract B. He said a berm with landscaping would be put up along Northwest 94th Avenue so the buses would not be seen. He reiterated the property would be leased to the Broward County School Board and the Lease Agreement would assure that the curb cuts for the ingress and egress would be installed off Commercial Boulevard. Mr. Matheson said the parcel in question was to the north of the property where vehicles were already being stored. C/M Katz asked if concurrency would have anything to do with the traffic flow to the surrounding areas because the buses and cars would move in and out of the site daily and continuously. He asked if the storage facility would have any impact on the area to the west because the City was interested in developing that land in the future. Mr. Matheson said Concurrency Standards through Broward County were presently being met. He said trips were made to meet the Concurrency Standards and the storage of buses and the personal ehicles of the drivers was less intense than if the facility was used as an office. C/M Katz reiterated his concern about traffic impact on the property to the west and Mr. Matheson said he would obtain a copy of Broward County's Traffic Engineering Report. He said there were enough trips to develop the entire parcel and not just the 13 acres. Mayor Bender indicated that Council had no information and asked Mr. Matheson to obtain back-up and submit it to Council. Mr. Matheson said he did not have this data. City Council Workshop Meeting 6/23/92/PP Page 2 Mayor Bender asked exactly what was proposed and Mr. Matheson said he did not have a firm proposal from the School Board. He said a zeal -estate broker had indicated that the School Board was interested in the property for parking school buses and the property fit the School Board's criteria. Edward W. Easton, Co -General Partner in Visual Graphics Corp., said he wanted Council's comments and thoughts before proceeding. He said the School Board sent a letter indicating they were interested in the parcel if it was not a problem to the City. Mr. Easton said the School Board wished to relocate the buses to West Broward because of the many new schools and the traffic pattern from the east side of Broward County. C/M Abramowitz asked if the buses would leave from the storage area in the morning and make four trips daily and Mr. Matheson said, yes. C/M Abramowitz said this was 600 bus trips daily. C/M Katz said the number was higher because not taken into account were the private vehicles driven by the bus drivers and C/M Abramowitz said the minimum number of trips daily was 800. C/M Abramowitz said the area was primarily residential with single and multi -family homes occupied by senior citizens. He said he could not understand why the School Board was insistent about coming into the City because a bus storage area did not belong in Tamarac. Mr. Easton said the Lease Agreement would stipulate that buses could only use the ingress and egress on Commercial Boulevard and C/M Abramowitz said it would be difficult to enforce. Mr. Easton said the Lease Agreement would be subject to the number of daily trips and in his opinion, the number would be less than if the parcel was used as an office site. He agreed there would be a great number of trips. C/M Schreiber asked how the City would benefit if a bus storage was located there. He said the residents demonstrated that they did not want a school bus depot in the City. Mr. Easton said the School Board had that information but in his opinion, the bus depot was Light -Industrial, it would bring economic base and it would be kept on the tax -roll. C/M Schreiber said a great deal of traffic and pollution would be created by the buses and was not beneficial. Mr. Matheson said Concurrency limited the number of trips allowed to the property and it did not matter whether or not the property was used for school buses, trucks or passenger vehicles. He said he was not requesting a zone change and he only wanted to put in a Light -Industrial business which was permitted. C/M Schreiber asked if there was an option to buy the property and Mr. Easton advised proceedings had not gone that far. C/M Schreiber said in his opinion, a school bus storage area was not desirable and Mr. Easton disagreed and said it was desirable in accordance with the zoning code and someone needed to tell Visual Graphics what was agreeable. C/M Schreiber said City Manager Kelly should advise what the City considered desirable for that location. C/M Schreiber said in his opinion, there were other businesses which were more desirable and beneficial. C/M Abramowitz asked if a bus broke down in the depot, where would it be repaired and Mr. Easton said the School Board had various repair shops where a bus could be towed and it would depend on what the breakdown was. City Council Workshop Meeting 6/23/92/PP Page 3 C/M Abramowitz asked if any repairs would be performed at the storage area and Mr. Easton said, no, because there were no maintenance facilities. C/M Abramowitz asked if the buses would be fueled at the storage area and Mr. Easton said, no, and the buses would only be stored at the facility but if a flat tire was found, it would be repaired on the site. 1[/M Abramowitz said he was very concerned about substances raining into the ground and Mr. Easton said he was sensitive to the environment and he did not want problems. Mayor Bender said he was concerned about the pollution generated from starting the buses continually during the day. Mr. Easton said the project would not proceed if there were more buses than was permitted. Mr. Easton asked if there was a difference between starting one bus 800 times a day or 800 buses being started once a day. He said he would comply with the State, Broward County and the City's rules and regulations with regard to traffic and pollution. Mayor Bender OPENED the Workshop to the Public. Gil Narins, resident, expressed his concerns and said his community opposed a bus storage facility in the City for use by the Broward County School Board. He said the facility would not bring in any additional revenue and it would negate any further development. Mr. Easton said there was no maintenance facility, the buses ould be stored there and the property would be leased and not sold. Irving Polk, resident, expressed his concerns and said at the moment, the School Board was not the issue. He said the area would be polluted by the fumes and this was hazardous to the great many senior citizens who lived in the area. He said a bus facility did not belong in Tamarac. Anthony Silvestri, resident, expressed his concerns and said several years ago, Mr. Matheson had asked to rezone the property to Commercial. He said Mr. Matheson agreed in writing that the property would not be used as a gas station and as of September, 1992, the property would not be leased to people who stored buses, trucks and vans there. Mr. Silvestri said every 24 hours, 54,000 vehicles crossed University Drive and Commercial Boulevard and 53,900 vehicles crossed McNab Road and University Drive. He said an investor would be reluctant to consider any future development on Land Section 7 if there was a bus depot across from their location. Mr. Silvestri said approval was granted for two curb cuts on Northwest 94th Avenue which was the shortcut from McNab Road to Commercial Boulevard. He said the bus depot did not belong in the City of Tamarac. &U.-LM Mr. Matheson agreed with Mr. Silvestri's statements that a gas station would not be constructed, that the property would not be leased to anyone using it to store vehicles of any type and the property was screened by the use of a fence and landscaping. He said the plat required the installation of curb cuts for the ingress and egress on Commercial Boulevard and Northwest 94th Avenue. Bruce Hoffman, resident, expressed his concerns and asked why the i City Council Workshop Meeting 6/23/92/PP Page 4 School Board was insistent about putting a bus depot in the City when they did not want to consider the construction of a new school. He suggested that the bus depot should be put where the new school was and Mr. Matheson and Mr. Easton should request a letter from the School Board with clarification of the School Board's plans and intentions if the proposal was approved. C/M Katz said it was his opinion that a real-estate broker and not the School Board asked for the bus depot to be relocated in the City. He said a real-estate broker went to the School Board and solicited the use of the property and Mr. Matheson had indicated that the School Board did not want to become involved because the City adamantly opposed the bus depot in the past. C/M Katz said he hoped Mr. Kelly communicated with Mr. Matheson about inquiries he received from people who were interested in locating to the City. Mr. Kelly agreed to make the information available to Mr. Matheson. Mr. Matheson thanked Council for permitting him to make his presentation. He said he wanted to use the property as it was zoned and not to create any more impact in terms of concurrency and to comply with local and State regulations. He said a tenant was wanted because the property had been vacant for approximately eight years. Mr. Easton thanked Council for permitting him to make his presentation. Mayor Bender said Council could not take any action today because the meeting was a Workshop meeting. City Attorney Kraft agreed and said Council had not received any proposal to act upon. 2. DISCUSSION on Board of Rules and appeals policy regarding fire inspections. Mr. Kelly said he received correspondence from Broward County's Board of Rules and Appeals (BCBRA) which indicated the BCBRA would not accept one fire inspection per year. He said the BCBRA's Attorney now was requiring a Building Inspector and a Fire Inspector to do the inspections. He said the City of Coral Springs appealed the BCBRA's decision and Walter W. Falck, Executive Director of the Broward League of Cities (the "League"), asked for a response from the municipalities involved. C/M Abramowitz said he opposed the BCBRA's actions and that Fire inspections were mandated by the State. He said at the time of the inspection, the Fire Inspector would advise the Building Department if he saw something which needed correction. C/M Abramowitz said he was a member of the League and they opposed the actions of the BCBRA who wanted every building, other than a single-family home, inspected by a Fire Inspector and two Electrical, Building, Mechanical or Plumbing Inspectors. He said the residents would have to pay for all the Inspectors. C/M Abramowitz said the BCBRA made a presentation to the League and in his opinion, it would provide work to Broward County's Inspectors. He said the City of Coral Springs had previously filed an appeal and BCBRA was asked to postpone the hearing and the request was denied. He said the League asked the City of Coral Springs if the other 28 Broward County municipalities could join in the appeal and the City of Coral Springs agreed. C/M Abramowitz said the hearing was postponed because the League did not have the information and was not advised in a timely manner to appeal the action properly. C/M Abramowitz reiterated what the Fire Inspector did if he saw something incorrect and that the Building Department sent out their Inspectors. City Council workshop Meeting 6/23/92/PP Page 5 C/M Abramowitz asked that the City join the League in opposing BCBRA's request for co -inspections by Fire, Building Plumbing, Electrical or Mechanical Inspectors. He said there could be two Inspectors at a time doing the inspections and the City could not absorb those costs. V/M Schumann said he did not have any back --up and knew nothing about the matter. /M Abramowitz said the League requested the postponement on the earing because they also did not have the information but were getting the information now. Mr. Kelly apologized for Council not getting the back-up in a timely fashion. He said he and Mayor Bender received a letter from Mr. Falck (copy attached) regarding the appeal by the City of Coral Springs on behalf of the League. He said C/M Abramowitz knew about the appeal because he was on the Board of the League and the League needed feedback on what the City wanted to do. Mr. Kelly said he spoke with Dan Wood, Chief Building Official, and Kelly Carpenter, AICP and Director of Community Development. He said they were of the opinion it would be very difficult to implement the guidelines. He said Staff concurred with the League to join the City of Coral Springs and wait for an answer to their appeal. V/M Schumann said he wanted a copy of BCBRA's Policy regarding Fire Inspections, if the City had one. C/M Katz said today he went to the League office and asked Mr. Falck for some information and Mr. Falck said he knew nothing ,about the Fire Inspections and the appeal. C/M Katz said he could not understand why Mr. Falck sent out directives and denied knowing anything about the matter. C/M Katz said there was a minimum $25 charge for a fire inspection and he saw nothing wrong .in charging a resident if an Inspector had to check out a violation if it was determined there was a violation. He said there had to be a way for the City to recover the cost. C/M Katz agreed with the statements made by C/M Abramowitz but he was angry that Mr. Falck denied knowledge of the matter. He said the City should not absorb the cost for an additional .inspection made by a Building Electrical, Mechanical or Plumbing Inspector if they were requested to check a violation at the time of a Fire Inspection. He said the person having the violation should pay the fee. C/M Schreiber said Council did not have any information from the League and the City was asked to support a position taken by the City of Coral Springs that the League wanted them to support. He said he needed the information to make a determination and asked if there was a timeframe. C/M Abramowitz agreed with C/M Schreiber and BCBRA had a history of springing requests of this nature with a few days notice. He said the League wanted to delay the implementation of BCBRA's request and within a short period of time, all elected officials in Broward County would be getting all the information. He said the Directors of the League unanimously voted to support the City of Coral Springs and the other municipalities were too late to do this individually and they joined with the City of Coral Springs in their appeal. C/M Abramowitz said Mr. Falck and the League would be waiting for the cities to respond after they reviewed all the information. 3. DISCUSSION on possible County/City purchase of land in City Council Workshop Meeting 6/23/92/PP Page 6 Tamarac as a natural resource protection area. Mr. Kelly said the City and Broward County were given an opportunity to purchase a Natural Resource Protection Area in the City. Kelly Carpenter, AICP and Director of Community Development, said in 1981 she became Plan Implementation Director of the Broward County Planning Department. She said her Division: a) implemented the Local Areas of Particular Concern Program (LAPCP). b) wrote the original Ordinance. c) did the original identification work. d) wrote the implementation requirements. Ms. Carpenter said there was a special resource site (#51) on Tracts 74 and 75 in Woodmont which was designated as a LAPCP site in 1981. She said the designation was based on the Cypress and Pine trees which grew there. She said the site consisted of 21.06 acres. Ms. Carpenter said LAPCP was changed to Natural Resource Protection Areas (NRPA). She said Site #51 was shown on Broward County's Land Use Plan and the City's Comprehensive Plan. She said Site #51 was platted in 1979 which predated Broward County's requirements for preservation and mitigation under the LAPCP. Ms. Carpenter said in 1989 she came to the City of Tamarac and a site plan was presented which proposed to cut down most of the trees on Site #51. She said the project fell through and the trees were not cut down. She said a State agency sent a survey asking if there were any sites in the City which were under the Communities Trust Act and she responded, yes. She said the City did not pursue the funding because they could not get an option on the land and have it last long enough for the State Department of Environmental Regulations (DER) to make a decision before the option was lost. Ms. Carpenter said Broward County wanted to purchase the land and in 1989, a Bond issue of $75,000,000 was adopted to purchase all environmentally sensitive lands but Site #51 was not considered at that time. She said Broward County was now considering the purchase of Site #51. Ms. Carpenter said she spoke with a representative of the Office of Natural Resource Protection (ONRP) and the ONRP spoke with the Broward County Attorney. Ms. Carpenter said this Item will be on tomorrow's agenda and requested that Council consider giving Staff approval to negotiate with Broward County and participate in the purchase of Site #51. She said the City would only participate to a maximum of 50% but she hoped it would be less. She said she would use Park and Recreation Impact Fee funds in negotiating and when the City went to contract with Broward County. Ms. Carpenter said Site #51 was the only natural resource area in northwest Broward County to preserve. C/M Katz said he had no problem if the City negotiated with Broward County on the purchase of Site #51 and the City should get credit for being on the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. He said if development started again, the City would be in a better position to collect Impact Fees. Mr. Kelly said Impact Fee monies and not property tax monies would be used. Mayor Bender asked how many acres the City would get credit for and Ms. Carpenter said this was negotiable and perhaps the City would get credit for 10.5 acres because this represented half of City Council Workshop Meeting 6/23/92/PP Page 7 the funding. Mr. Kelly agreed the credit was negotiable but credit was also based on the covenants in the Environmentally Sensitive Land Bonds. C/M Schreiber said Broward County was asking the City to participate with 50% of the fundings but Broward County would have control of Site #51 and the City would not have control. He asked what control the City could have and Mr. Kelly answered that covenants in the Environmentally Sensitive Land Bonds would ever change and Site #51 would always be a Natural Resource rotected area. C/M Abramowitz said in his opinion, it was a good time to negotiate with Broward County on this land. Tape 3 Mayor Bender said at a prior Workshop, he gave authorization to Mr. Kelly to send a letter with regard to auditing Continental Cable. He said Ms. Filipiak telephoned him and advised the audit could commence the week of July 20. Mayor Bender asked for an EXPRESSION OF INTEREST to move forward and negotiate a contract with the lowest bidder to do the audit. Mr. Kelly said there were two candidates being considered for the Risk Manager position. He said one of the two candidates was the Chief Financial Officer for Selkirk Television and could do the auditing. He said the candidate interviewed very well and made an excellent impression and Council should meet him. He added that the position of Internal Auditor was still open. ,Mayor Bender said the entire Council showed an EXPRESSION of INTEREST to move forward with regard to going out to bid for someone to do the audit. Mayor Bender said he received correspondence (see attachment) from Mr. Falck regarding Broward County's Solid Waste Cooperative Programs and Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) which needed an immediate response today. C/M Abramowitz said the City and the League had a meeting with regard to the Resource Recovery Program and that the League needed to know the City's position. C/M Abramowitz said in his opinion, recycling was not income producing but income costing. He said he would vote NO on the first two Items and YES for Item three. C/M Katz said he understood that Trash Transfer Stations served a purpose but some non -participating cities utilized these facilities without any contributions to the cost and their hours of operation were not convenient to many cities. He said in his opinion, Trash Transfer Stations should be a negotiable item. C/M Katz said he heard the Trash Transfer Stations would close if $2.70 was not paid and C/M Abramowitz disagreed and said $2.70 was not being paid now. He said if Council indicated NO, the Trash Transfer Stations would remain open because this was a Broward County program. C/M Katz said he did not want the City of Tamarac to absorb the cost if cities did not participate in the Trash Transfer Station Program. Mayor Bender said Council EXPRESSED a NEGATIVE response to the Tipping Fee Surcharge of $.10 regarding County Household Hazardous Waste. C/M Abramowitz said some cities had contracts and shared profits with recycling companies and the cities advised Broward County City Council Workshop Meeting 6/23/92/PP Page 8 they would be sued by the haulers if the profit sharing ceased. He said it would cost $.10 to have a MRF and $.97 a month for a resident to share in the profits and if he was allowed to vote, he would vote NO on the $.97. C/M Abramowitz said the majority of the population was from the three largest cities in Broward County and if the other cities did not vote NO on the $.97, every resident would pay $.97 per month. He suggested if Council was allowed to vote, they should vote YES for the $.10 and NO for the $.97. Mayor Bender said Council EXPRESSED a NEGATIVE response to the $.97 and a POSITIVE response on the $.10. Mayor Bender said he opposed the $1.14 County -Wide Recycling Tipping Fee Surcharge. C/M Abramowitz asked if this affected Broward County's Five -City Recycling Program and Mr. Kelly said the City of Tamarac was not exempt. C/M Abramowitz asked what the $1.14 would buy and Mayor Bender said it would do nothing. C/M Katz said a presentation was made regarding County -Wide recycling and Mr. Henderson was made aware that Tamarac had a Five -City Recycling agreement. C/M Katz said he understood the Five -City Recycling Program would be incorporated into the County -Wide Program. He asked why the City would want to participate in a County -Wide program if it was satisfied with a Five City Program. Mayor Bender said if he was allowed to vote, he would vote NO on the $.97 issue and C/M Abramowitz agreed. Mr. Silvestri expressed his concerns about the residents who paid and those who did not pay the garbage taxes. He said almost 19,000 residents in the City did not pay taxes because they did not meet the $25,000 Homestead Exemption and he asked that everyone should pay their share. Mr. Kelly disagreed and said almost 1,400 residents did not pay their share. Mr. Kelly said Attorney Harry Stewart represented an association which owned and leased to an excavation company located next to the municipal parking lot on the east side of the City. He said Attorney Stewart advised a representative from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) did a study of the site, looking for pollution and contamination. He said the EPA report revealed that very heavy equipment was occasionally brought in for repairs, that large amounts of oils, lubricants, paints, mineral spirits and other liquids were utilized during its operation. Mr. Kelly said the report continued that surface water drained into the ground but it was possible that contaminated surface water run-off could pose a threat to ground water in the area. He said there were elevated levels of organic compounds in the subsurface soil and ground water near the entrance to the facility but not near the area where the heavy equipment was maintained. He said similar contamination was not found anywhere else on the site and that the contamination might have come from another source. Mr. Kelly said employees of the excavation company advised that the Municipal Parking Lot north of this site was formerly used as a motor pool and may have contained underground petroleum storage tanks which could now be leaking. Mr. Kelly said the City had a motor pool type operation which was cleaned out over 11 years ago and presently there were no underground petroleum storage tanks. Mr. Kelly said he was expecting a copy of the EPA report and the i`1 City Council Workshop Meeting 6/23/92/PP Page 9 site in question might qualify for the Abandoned Tank Restoration Program which had a cut-off date of June 30. He said it was doubtful the tanks were leaking and he reiterated the tanks were removed over 11 years ago. V/M Schumann asked if EPA requirements were met 11 years ago and Mr. Kelly said EPA requirements were not in place at that time. Mr. Kelly asked if it would mean the City was admitting it had a roblem if it filed the application by June 30. V/M Schumann -aid he did not believe the City was admitting anything if an pplication was filed. C/M Abramowitz asked if any professionals double-checked the area to confirm the EPA report. C/M Schreiber said if the City filed the application, it might imply there might be a problem and Mr. Kelly said the City was covering all the bases. Mayor Bender said a question was asked whether there was contamination surrounding the City's property and Mr. Kelly said he did not know. He said the report indicated the contamination did not come from their site. C/M Abramowitz asked if there was any contact with the EPA representative who wrote the report and Mr. Kelly said, no. Mr. Kelly said Attorney Stewart was waiting for the City's response. Mayor Bender reiterated that the City should file and indicate that the City was doubtful the contamination came from City property. He said the problem could be resolved at a later time. l/M Katz asked if someone had observed a plume on the ground and r. Kelly said, no, and reiterated the contamination was not oming from their site but it could be coming from a City site. C/M Abramowitz reiterated that Mr. Kelly should speak with the representative of the EPA who wrote the report and to confirm that the contamination did or did not come from the City. Mr. Kelly reiterated the report indicated this determination had not yet been made. C/M Abramowitz said along with the application should be a statement which denied the contamination was caused by leakage from an underground storage tank because the tanks were removed over 11 years ago. He said the statement should also indicate this matter was discussed with the City Attorney. Mayor Bender agreed. C/M Katz said he was absent when a Workshop was held and discussion was held relating to the towing franchise. He said he spoke with Mr. Kelly who indicated the lowest bidder had the equipment, facilities, and was bondable. He asked if Discussion and Possible Action on the Towing Franchise could again be ag�ndized. C/M Patz said if the City did not contract with the towing company, it would lose revenue. He expressed his concerns about the company being the low bidder and whether said company could perform atter everything was checked out. C/M Abramowitz said in his opinion, the City did everything in a hurry to spend money but it took its time to earn revenue. He mentioned the golf driving range, the towing franchise and the person who sold non -explosive fireworks. He said he wanted to act rapidly on things that would bring in revenue as fast as the City acted to spend money. Mr. Kelly said the concerns mentioned by C/M Abramowitz were to be agendized but the meeting was so long and the towing franchise City Council Workshop Meeting 6/23/92/PP Page 10 was Item V . George Maffei, representing Sal's Towing, said he attended the Workshop, hoping the towing franchise would be discussed. He distributed a packet to each member of the Council and said Westway, the low bidder, charged $16 and Sal's Towing charged $60 and that $70 was the fee charged for all Florida Highway Patrol towing. Mr. Maffei expressed his concerns about the franchise fee and said Sal's Towing would pay $25,000 per year. He added Sal's had towed in the City for the past three years and they did almost $1,000 in free towing each month. Mr. Maffei said the packet contained a breakdown of what it cost to run a call with a tow truck. C/M Abramowitz said the revenue from towing was not as important as the service the residents would get. He said Westway had facilities in the City of Tamarac and offered free transportation to their facility. He said in his opinion, either Westway did not know what they were doing or Sal's Towing was charging an exorbitant amount of money for towing and Westway had all the equipment. C/M Schreiber asked why Council had not acted sooner on the towing franchise and Mayor Bender advised the matter was discussed at a Workshop and action could not be taken. C/M Katz suggested that Council should move on the towing franchise as soon as possible. Mayor Bender asked if the towing franchise could be agendized for the next meeting and Mr. Kelly said, yes. Tape 4 V/M Schumann said he did not remember why some new Planning Commission appointments were for three years, for two years and for one year and Mr. Kelly said this matter should also be agendized for the next Council Meeting. C/M Abramowitz asked if a Special Meeting could be scheduled to discuss the Planning Commission appointments. Mayor Bender said a Special meeting was to be scheduled for Monday, June 30, at 9:30 a.m. Mayor Bender asked why the new Planning Commission appointments were for three years, two years and one year and V/M Schumann said he remembered that in 1991, the appointments were for specific years and terms of office.
