Tape 1 Tape 2 CITY OF TAMARAC, FLORIDA CITY COUNCIL WORKSHOP MEETING January 21, 1983 DISCUSSION ON THE PROPOSED CIVIC CENTER AND PROPOSED POLICE FACILITY CALL TO ORDER: Mayor Falck called the meeting to order at 1:00 P.M. Friday, January 21, 1983, in the West Conference Room at City Hall. ROLL CALL: PRESENT: Mayor Walter W. Falck Vice Mayor Helen Massaro Councilman Irving M. Disraelly Councilman David E. Krantz ABSENT AND EXCUSED: Councilman Philip B. Kravitz ALSO'PRESENT: Laura Z. Stuurmans, City Manager Jon M. Henning, City Attorney Joseph McIntosh, Police Chief Mayor Falck read the official notice of the workshop meeting which was called for the purpose of discussing the proposed civic center and proposed Police facility. Mayor Falck asked the Police Chief to give a presentation as to the needs of a proposed Police Facility. Police Chief McIntosh said there is property available next to the Fire Station on 88th Ave., a total of 14 acres. He said they have drawn up a tentative sketch of plans they feel would be most needed now as well as several years into the future. (See Attachmentsil, 2 and 3). The Police Chief said they have anticipated, in these plans, the estimated increase of the population of the City to 75,000 people as well as the increase in staff of approximately 50 members. He said the majority would be certified Police officers. He said the parking facilities would be approximately 52,500 square feet and they would need about 100 spaces for Police and employee vehicles. He said the front of the building would face 88 Ave. and the estimated price, at this time, is for $65 to $75 per square foot for a total of approximately $1,000,000. He said this price included paving of the parking area but not landscaping. C/M Disraelly said they have discussed location before and have decided the building should be west of the Fire Station. He said a proposed City Hall should be adjacent to the canal and the Police facility should not be the focal point. The Police Department would be open 24 hours a day and there would be a receptionist that would handle the alarms. Chief McIntosh said since the Police Department must be readily accessible to the public and emergency situations must be considered, it would be best for the facility to be located at a site where it would not be necessary to go around another facility. V/M Massaro asked if the Chief had any idea how much more would be needed as far as furniture, etc. Chief McIntosh said the only item he could think of was a place for all of the alarms but this should not be an expense since it would just mean a transfer of what the department has now. V/M Massaro asked about the Communications such as aerials on the roof and whether or not they are inclusive in the quote of one million dollars and if this would allow the residents to call the Department directly rather than call 911. The Chief said this is correct. - 1 - 1/21/83 /pm Chief McIntosh said the only thing he can think of that might be of a special nature would be the polygraph room which would have to be soundproof. V/M Massaro requested that the Police Chief consider anything else that might be necessary in order to get a more accurate idea of cost. C/M Disraelly asked if there would be a room designated for an off -duty administrator and the Chief said there are some rooms on the plan that have not been designated and he would use one of these. C/M Krantz asked if the Chief had planned on shower facilities in the locker areas and the Chief said yes. C/M Krantz asked if the gymnasium equipment was considered in the over --all cost and the Chief said that is not included. The City Manager said this tentative plan of the Chief's was taking the concepts by her as initial and secondary product of Mike Shiff's plan from 22,000 square feet to 15,000 square feet. Jon Henning asked if it were possible to have a plan with the building situated where it would be conducive to expansion if necessary. V/M Massaro said an architect could better address that. Arthur Gottesman, resident, asked if the cost included the air conditioning and auxiliary power and the City Manager said this has been allowed for. Mayor Falck said consideration must also be given to this building when a new Police facility is built. He said he would suggest remodeling this building to accommodate the City's needs. He said he would not anticipate much more expansion when the Police facility is removed. V/M Massaro said she would like to see the Building Depart- ment and the Utilities housed in this building. V/M Massaro said the next priority should be the Community Center and Mayor Falck said they will have to go for bonding for this. C/M Krantz asked for an estimate of how long this project would take and V/M Massaro estimated approximately 12 to 14 months. Community Facility - Mayor Falck referred to his memorandum to Council of 1/3/83 in which he stated a Community building should be erected patterned after the one built for Lauderdale Lakes. He said this building has an outdoor area that can be used for game playing, concerts, etc. and this type of arrangement minimizes the need for air condition- ing and does not require the installation of expensive showers, lockers, etc. C/M Krantz asked if this would be part of the Parks Department and Mayor Falck said they could supervise some of the affairs that might be held there. V/M Massaro said the City Planner has some good sketches that could be used as well as any plans from an architect. V/M Massaro said Council has been trying to maintain the plans within the amount of money that the City is permitted to spend without a referendum. The amount that the City can spend without a referendum is $215,000. Mr. Gottesman asked if this building amount would permit the construction of a small auditorium and Mayor Falck said there will be a small auditorium inside that could be divided into a couple of sections which would accommodate approximately 300 people. C/M Krantz asked if this facility would be used for outside organizations too or just the City use and Mayor Falck said Council has indicated that this would not be a rental project available to outside organizations but designed specifically for activities in which the City was either involved or sponsoring. Muriel Davis said she has worked with Sharon Ellis in the Recreation Program and she would be happy to see this move ahead. C/M Krantz asked if the Police Facility would be considered before this and V/M Massaro said that might be delayed a little because of the bond issue but the City has the money for the Community Facility and as soon as the plans are ready this facility could be under construction. C/M Disraelly said the full plan must be considered with location of the four buildings. - 2 - 1/21/83 /pm urd/ £8/TZ/T _ 8 _ •opapuPJ, 90 A-4TD agR 90 TTounoZ) A4TD ago Aq suaT-4pxapTsuoo pup suoTUTdo quaoaa '4n0gp saaAoTcua pun saaoTJo oTTgnd pun ;D-rTqnd Tpxauab auP =0_;uT oq 'Adoo aad $ ao --e-h 30 gsoo p 4P pa4nbTnumd spM quaumoop oTTgnd sTgy ,�4TD 4uP4sTssV supn$ - V TOJUD -W-d Se:Z qn pouanoCpp spm SuTgaaw auj -sTuq uo sbuTTaag aau pa4vgs AppaaTn saq aus pTps oapsspW W/A Pup TTounoD o-4 uznpunaouraut t�q pagapgs aq sTLIg gnuq pa4sa5bns ATTanasTQ W/D -asodand sTuq aog papaau aq 4gBTuz saaop OT ATa4vluTxoaddP sTaaj ags PTps oapsspW W/A - upqaoduiT gsaui sT sTu4 4pu4 aapsspW W/A 144TM paaa5p �fOTn3 ao,,�pW •papaau sT PUP T uonui Mog pup soo TTTM ? gonuz Mou auTWaagap 04 snaap 0gPTadoaddp uT pupT uMo Oqm aTdoad asouq ggTM agnTqabau oq uTbaq oq aau azTaoggnu TTounoD pagsabbns agS -puPT aTgpTTPAP go �,(onT jo asnpoaq ppog gpNoW uo paapTd buTaq buTPTTnq sNIOM oTTgnd auq gnogp pauaaouoo sT ags pTps oapssnW W/A •goaCoad gpuq gap4s 04 arLaasag TpgTduo uT 8 000'OOZ'T$ spu ATD aqq qvqq papoTpuT aq PTnogs? pips ATTapasTQ W/D adpy qunouzn gpum aoj pup ouoP aq TTTM 4T Mog paaapTsuao aq PTnogs 4T 'os ;T pun ATTnbaT aanquan sTgq UT saoTnaas s,uTgng •aW aanaas uno TTounOD aGg4OuM buTgPOTPuT buTuuag • aW uzaa uaT�nivaa uT anpu PTnogs TTounoo ' auiTq qugq �q ' pTns ag •SApp uaq qxau auq uTggTM auop aq PTnogs sTg4.puu 43aCO3d sTgq uo TpTa84pur autos azTupbao 04 uTgnH 'aW pazTaOggnp ,�ppaaTP sng TTounoD pTns NoTn3 aoArW •quauiuSTssp sTuq aNv aapun uno aq gons sn pun aogopaquoo quapuadapuT un sT au 'GGA0Tduia up qou pup AgTD auq 109 -4un-4TnsuoD p sT aq GOUTS tuTq ubnoaqq auop aq pTnoo 4T sunTd agq saop agpTooSsp sTu ao au aaggOqm pTps aH •NaaM aad sanoq OZ ATuo sT uoTgM gquour aad sanou 08 aoJ AgTD auq oq paggTunuoo sT uTgnH •aW pTps ATTapasTQ W/O •dTau 3o aq _4ubTui aaugapd sTu 'aaAaM04 'ssauTsnq TpangD0gTuoan up Spu osTV ag GOUTS saTgnp aauuvld A4T3 aaggo sTu sn TTaM sp sTg4 op 40uuno aq pTps oapsspW W/A •supTd buTPTTnq auq Mpap 04 ao buTgwnTd unTd 'suoT4T4ad 'sTTum Mpap oq uzTq buTxsp 4ou sT TTounoD qnq sanou TpuaT4TPpp aaTnboa Apui qT pTns 04S •aauunTd �4TD sp AgTD aq4 04 saoTnaas sTu ;o adoos aqq uTggTM TTnJ PTnoM goTgm buTpTTnq ags. ;o -4nOAPT pup uoT oaTas 04Ts auk UT pTp off. aauunTd A4TD ago buTNSP sT TTounOD pTns aaFpunW AgTD ags •buTpuaq 04 05 04 anpu TTTM goTgm A4TTTop3 aoTTod au4 aq PTnoM uoT4naapTsuoo gxau agq pTns ag • A4TTxop3 e qTununuoD auq g4TM anour uno ;L9g4 ATXoTnb Mou auTu1194ap upo TTounOD OWT4 gDTgm 4p unTd Tpngdaouoo p uo suoT-4 -nnaasgo sTu TTounoD 0AT5 upo aq SAnp U04 uTg4TM 4vg4 os uTgng pangoTH ggTM supTd AJPUTuzTTaad aqq u4TM poaooad TTounOD pagsabbns xoTPA JOAPW •sxaoM oTTgna aq pTnoM aaagq 05 40u PTnoM 4ng4 buTu4 ATuo au4 pTps oapssnW W/A •TTOM Sr;? uaATb aq 7.snui TTpH �4TD 90 azTs ago 04 sp u0T4pa0pTsu0o PTps ATTapasTa W/D -oT3jpa4 gonui pup -4uaonCpn 4uauzlandaa aaTa auq pup quauzgapd@G aoTTod aq4 g4TM SuTpTTng u0T4n0aoag agq aoJ uoTqoagaad aaPTsuoo osTn PTnogs iagq pTns oapsspW W/A Workshop Meeting 1/21/83 ATTACHMENT 1 r ATTp,GHMFNT 2 7 y h 3 �'e x P ; �• zo Workshop Meeting w 1 isms ATTACHMENT 3 Workshop'Meeting 1/21/83 i•i 5, •
