,lames Moore, Resident at 5608 NW 49 Avenue, had concerns
with the lights in the parking lot of the Municipal
Complex not being on for the residents during and after
the evening meetings.
Mayor Abramowitz said this matter has been noticed and
would be corrected.
Will Harmon, Resident at 5755 NW 88 Avenue, said he owned
two Shell Service Stations in the City and was also
speaking for other Service stations in Tamarac. He said
he wrote a letter to the City Council concerning the old
Public Works property. He said he heard that the
property could not be sold unless a gas station was
placed on the property.

REPORTS
9. City Council
Mayor Abramowitz reported that he received several letters of
complaints and compliments. He said there was an Article
in the newspaper which reported on the Tamarac Fire
Department Diving Program. He said there were several
residents concerned with the City having this type of
program because of the money required for the program.
Mayor Abramowitz said the Fire Department was a
participant in a Mutual Aide Program. He said the Mutual
Aide Program allowed Tamarac and the surrounding Cities
to assist each other in emergencies. He said the City
of Sunrise had a Hazard Material Team which assists the
surrounding Cities. He said Tamarac would have a Diving
Team for the same purpose. He said the program would
certify 30 Firefighters as divers and the complete
program would only cost the City $10,000.00.

Mayor Abramowitz said there have been four rescues within
the past two years by the Tamarac Fire Department. He
congratulated the Fire Department and thanked them for
their services. He thanked Ray Briant, Fire Chief, for
instigating the Mutual Aide and Diving Programs.
V/M Stelzer reported that a few months ago he proposed that
the City assume the Contract with Broward County for
signalization. He said the Chief of Police was concerned
with the City's liability in assuming this responsibility
because of the hazards involved.
V/M Stelzer said the Public Works Director quoted that
assuming the signalization program would cost the City
approximately $66,000.00; however, since talking with
Dick Rankowitz, Director of Traffic Engineering for
Broward County, he found that the Department of
Transportation and Traffic Engineers have never been sued
by anyone for a traffic sign or stop sign. He said he
was informed that the City could assume the sign and
striping provision from the County's Contract.
V/M Stelzer said the Public Works Director stated that
the City would need a striping truck and a sign making
machine; however, he found that attachments could be
purchased for any type of truck and signs could be
purchased through a sign making company.
V/M Stelzer said the City could cancel their
signalization contract with Broward County at any time.
He suggested that the City Council direct the Public
Works Director to investigate this matter again.
Mayor Abramowitz said everyone was anxious to make
signalization a City function; however, after discussing
the City's liability he was not sure this was a good
idea. He suggested the City Council hold a Workshop
meeting with the County regarding the liability.
V/M Stelzer said he was informed by the County that
liability was not a problem; however, a Workshop meeting
would be appropriate.
City Attorney Doody said he spent 5 years working at the
County and the County spent a great deal of time on
litigation for stop lights. He said anytime there is an
accident, the Counsel second guess the decision of
placing a stop sign or light. He said he would like to
investigate the County's traffic litigation experience
further.
Mayor Abramowitz said a Workshop on this matter was
needed because a service of this type being provided by
the City would be good.
C/M Bender reported that the Social Services Board was
welcoming residents on Medicare or Medicaid to visit the
Municipal Complex on the second and fourth Friday of each
Month to discuss any problems or questions they may have
with a Representative trained by the Area Agency on
Aging. He said a list of the services provided by the
Social Services Board has been sent to each Area
President. He said Flu shots would be given on October
10, 1988 from 9:00 A.M. to Noon at a cost of $6.00 **.
He said volunteer drivers were needed for Meals -on -Wheels
Page 6
and this request would be televised on Channel 19, Cable
T.V. He said anyone interested should contact Helen
Sobel, Chairwoman of the Social Services Board.
** EDITOR'S NOTE: Helen Sobel, Chairwoman of the Social Services
Board, announced at a Social Services Board
Meeting that the cost of the Flu shots would be
$7.00.
C/M Rohr reported that he spoke with the City of Oakland Park's
Assistant City Manager regarding their recycling program.
He said Oakland Park's Public Works Department would be
handling their recycling program. He said he was
informed that the Grant money available for recycling
would go to the large Cities only; however, the Broward
League of Cities would be Lobbying to see if Broward
County would assist in giving the smaller Cities monies
for a recycling program.
C/M Rohr said the Cities who were presently being
serviced by a Waste Company had to negotiate with them
before implementing a recycling program. He said Tamarac
would re --negotiate with Waste Management, Inc., before
deciding on a recycling program.
C/M Hoffman reported that he attended the Parks & Recreation
Board Meeting of September 27, 1988 and found that all of
the Plans for the several Projects were completed;
however, the School Board has not negotiated with the
City regarding the Multi -Purpose Complex because of a
change in personnel. He said the Public Works Director
indicated that negotiations for this Project should be
completed in two weeks.
At this time, Mayor Abramowitz asked that Item 24 be
heard. ;

Vickie Beech, Resident, asked what this contract was for
and how much the services would cost.
Mayor Abramowitz said Mitch Ceasar's function would be to
help the City receive grants available from the Federal,
State and County Governments. He said Mr. Ceasar would
be receiving last year's cost of $1,500.00 per month this
year. He said the City could negate the contract at any
time. He said the City was presently closing a Grant in
the amount of $30,000.00 for Park facilities. He said

bring the same amount of money for his services in the
City each month, the contract would cease.
V/M Stelzer said Page 2 of the Contract stated that
$15,000.00 a year would not be exceeded. He asked if
this was correct.
Mitch Ceasar said the previous Contract amount was
carried over into the new contract; therefore, this
matter was incorrect.
V/M Stelzer said the Contract should be amended to read
"not to exceed $18,000.00 per year", and Mr. Ceasar
agreed.

City Manager Kelly said Items 30 through 35 are Public
Hearings for non-exclusive franchise agreements with
refuse companies. He said these companies collect from
commercial properties within the City and the City did
not govern the service decision made between the two
parties. He said the City was only providing the
companies the right to do business in the City; however,
the companies pay the City a 10% franchise tax from their
gross revenues.
City Manager Kelly said during the first reading, he
indicated that the companies had their Bonds increased
and the additional Bonds were needed before the second
reading. He said all of the additional Bonds were
received and he recommended approval. of Items 30 through

Mayor Abramowitz said the City was only involved with
these companies by allowing them to do business within
the City and 10% of their gross revenues would be

year from 10/6/88.

City Attorney Doody read Temp. Reso. #5173 by title.
* V/M Stelzer MOVED to APPROVE Temp. Reso. #5173,
* SECONDED by C/M Bender.
City Attorney Doody said that staff was recommending that
this Item be denied.
Thelma Brown -Porter, City Planner, read into the record
the reasons why staff was recommending denial (SEE
ATTACHMENT).
Mayor Abramowitz asked if the Petitioner was present and
no one was present.
C/M Hoffman suggested that a Workshop meeting be called
to resolve some of the problems being caused by the Sign
Ordinance. He said he was not in favor of mandating
compliance to the Sign Ordinance when it may be changed
in a few months. He said when a person paid to comply
with the Ordinance it should be for a reasonable amount
of time. He suggested that all sign waivers be denied
until the Ordinance was revised.
Mayor Abramowitz said he met with the City Manager and
City Attorney regarding this matter and it was agreed
that a Workshop meeting would be held to correct these
problems. He said these problems should have been
resolved before this; however, he would never over -ride
staff's decision unless there was a good reason. He said
the Workshop should involve the City Council, staff,
Planning Commission, Community Leaders and the Chamber of
Commerce so that the problems could be corrected
properly. He asked if the City Attorney felt it was
improper for the City Council to deny this Item.
City Attorney Doody replied no. He said it was a policy
decision that the City Council would be making.
V/M Stelzer said when the Sign Ordinance was originally
written, the residents were given 5 years to comply. He
said if these residents complied with the Ordinance it
would not be fair to ask them to change; however, if the
residents did not comply, they should be denied a waiver.
Mayor Abramowitz said the City Attorney prepared a new
Sign Ordinance; however, he did not feel that the City
Attorney should be the one to compose the Ordinance
without input from the parties involved.
Page 12
9/28/88
C/M Bender suggested that this Item be Tabled until a new
Ordinance was available.
C/M Hoffman said this sign was in violation and should be
denied. He said if this Item was Tabled, it would be
permitting the sign to exist.
City Attorney Doody said regardless of whether this Item
was Tabled or Denied, the existing waiver would expire.
Bob Jahn, Chief Building Official, said he agreed that a
Workshop meeting should be held if the Ordinance was to
be changed; however, this Item did not pertain to the
existing Ordinance only. He said there were several
other problems with this sign. He said the Petitioner
could not conform to this Ordinance by October 24, 1988.
Mr. Jahn said this sign was given a waiver for 1 year in
1979 and the City Council continued granting the waivers.
He said the sign did not conform with the Ordinance in
1979 and could not meet the present Ordinance. He
recommended this Item be denied.

Mrs. Brown -Porter said the zoning on the property is B-6

Description is Lots 1 and 2 of Block 4, Lyon's Commercial
Park. She said the type of use being requested is a Final
Site Plan and the number of acres is 1.43. She said the
total square footage is 11,171 and the Building would be
one story. She said the Planning Commission and staff
were recommending approval.
Larry Kramer, Architect and Owner of the property,
exhibited the Site Plan and said the occupants would be
surveyors, civil engineers and himself. He said the
Building would be one story developed around the concept.
He said the access of the Building would be through a
courtyard which was landscaped at the corner. He said
the entrances of the offices would be off the courtyard.
Mr. Kramer said the interior courtyard would be glass and
there would be a silver standing seam metal roof. He
said the perimeter of the Building would be glass. He
said the trusses would be blue, the roof would be silver

Mayor Abramowitz asked if Mr. Kramer discussed this

Stan Bernard, Resident, had concerns with this project

resided in the area and his Association and the
surrounding Associations were not aware of this
Development.
Mayor Abramowitz said the City Council and staff were
very aware of the problems at Visual Graphics and they
were working very hard to see that this did not occur in
the City again.
Herb Hayes, Resident, said he was pleased to see this
development going into the area instead of something
industrial.
C/M Hoffman asked if this site had been cited by Code
Enforcement and Mrs. Brown -Porter said this site was
cited because of a transformer and the soil and ground
had been torn up. She said this matter was discussed and
would be corrected.
Vickie Beech, Resident, had concerns with the roof

City Manager Kelly recommended that the contract with
Medics Ambulance Service continue. He said the original
contract indicated the cost of the service to be
$105,840.00; however, Mr. Cohen agreed to reduce the cost
to $105,000.00 providing his cap be increased by
$1,000.00. He said the City was pursuing emergency
responses without charging the residents at the time of
transport. He said Medics Ambulance would have the right
to go to the patient's insurance company for payment. He
said the hospitals to which the residents would be
transported are University Community Hospital, Florida
Medical Center, Northwest Regional Hospital, Holy Cross
Hospital and North Ridge Hospital. He said the patients
would be transported to the closest hospital not the
hospital of their choice.
City Manager Kelly said the fee structure was consistent
with the original contract and the City had the allowance
to increase the contract by 5%. He said Broward County
increased their costs and are now charging the people
$150.00 per transport. He said all residents and
employees were covered by this contract.
C/M Hoffman asked if the paramedics would transfer the
residents to the hospital which best fit their needs and
Ray Briant, Fire Chief, said the residents would be
transported to the hospital best equipped for the trauma.
City Manager Kelly said the cap has been placed on Medics
Ambulance as to the money they earn. He said the City
would be receiving 50% of anything over $141,000.00. He
said the City could not solicit this service because
Medics Ambulance was the only ambulance service in the
District.
Mayor Abramowitz said there had been concern regarding
Medics Ambulance's response time; however, their response
time has improved. He said every trip made by Medics was
recorded in Broward County and the Fire Chief had someone
monitoring the response time and cost incurred.
Chief Briant said a monthly report would be submitted to
the City regarding Medics transports. He said Medics
Ambulance responded to 2,400 calls in Tamarac last year
and 1,572 were transported. He said the residents would
be charged $87.45 if they had Medicaid or supplemental
insurance.
V/M Stelzer said the original draft of the contract
provided that the contract would pertain to non-residents
visiting the City; however, it was not in the signed
contract. He asked why this provision was not being
implemented.
Chief Briant said Mr. Cohen said this contract would not
pertain to non-residents because it may be abused;
however, he would discuss this matter with Mr. Cohen.
Jill Medford, Representative of Medics Ambulance Service,
said there have been several people that could not be
located for payment or information; therefore, Medics
Ambulance Service opted not to provide the services under
the contract to non-residents.
Page 17
Mayor Abramowitz asked if the services would be provided
to non-residents for different costs and Ms. Medford
replied, yes.
C/M Hoffman said when the ambulance was called to a home
in Tamarac, it should not make a difference if the person
being transferred was a non-resident. He said everybody
in the City should have the service under the contract.
Mayor Abramowitz asked the City Attorney if the City
Council could pass this Resolution contingent upon this
provision being included or Table the Item.
City Attorney Doody said the provision being discussed
was not in last year's contract and the existing contract
expired on September 30, 1988. He suggested the City
Council approve this contract and, if an amendment was
needed, it could be brought back to the City Council.
Mayor Abramowitz asked what would happen if Mr. Cohen did
not agree to the provision and City Attorney Doody said
the agreement could be rescinded; however, Medics
Ambulance Service was the only ambulance company
available.
Mayor Abramowitz suggested that this Item be detained
until later in the meeting so that Ms. Medford could call
and discuss this matter with Mr. Cohen.
C/M Hoffman said the City Council did not receive this
Amendment until 2 days before the meeting. He said this
was not sufficient time for the City Council to review
it.
V/M Stelzer said this provision was not in the original
contract; therefore, the City Council should approve the
contract until this matter is discussed with Mr. Cohen to
see if it could be added.
Mayor Abramowitz said this Item could be approved or
Tabled until a Workshop was held and City Attorney Doody
said the Workshop would have to held no later than
September 30, 1988 because the contract expired on that
date.
City Manager Kelly said this contract was the same
contract as last year and all of the City's concerns have
been addressed. He said the contract was stricter than
last year's because of the monitoring and reporting
procedures. He said the contract was in the best
interest of the City and would save the City money. He
said Mr. Cohen has been very receptive to the City's
concerns and there have been no problems with the service
for 3 years. He suggested the contract be approved. He
said he would meet with Mr. Cohen and discuss this
provision.
Mayor Abramowitz said he would like the City Manager and
Eire Chief to meet with Mr. Cohen regarding this
provision.
City Manager Kelly suggested that C/M Hoffman be involved
in the meeting because he was Liaison for the Ambulance
Service.
