Attorney Bi:rken read the Ordinance in by title. The Attnrnev
said this is really a housekeeping kind of an Ordinance. The Sec-tion
2-1 of the Code was written before the State Comprehensive Planning
Act. His suggestions were for the following changes: Section 2-1should read--"Th.e City shall adopt and maintain a Master Land Use
Plan to be used as a standard for land use within the city, Master
Land Use Plan so adopted and as amended from time to time shall be
deemed an absolute binding plan from which. the city may not vary".

concerning developers in conflict with the plan within the State
Comprehensive Planning Act. The Attorney recommended that the language
he read be adopted. C/W Massaro said she is concerned with running
into conflict with the plan.
C/W Massaro MOVED that this item be TABLED until November 12,

Mr. Mitch. Ceasar, Grants Consultant addressed the Council.
He said that upon the recommendation of the committee, a grant
application that the city had made concerning Veterans Park was
approved unanimously on 10/27/81 by the County Commission. The
grant is for $56,200.00 and th.e total program is $61,900.00. The
city adds $5,700 and the state adds $56,200. This is from the
Florida Boaters Improvement Program, which is derived from fees
on voting registration. Additionally, Tamarac took between 25 and
30% of th.e monies allocated, within two weeks a contract will be
sent from Tallahassee from the Department of Natural Resources.
The grant deals with, boating, greater use of the water facilities,
boat slips, boardwalk, paving, lighting, etc. C/W Massaro brought
out th-e importance and the need for paving to be included in this.
Mr. Ceasar will look into this. further. C/W Massaro asked the City
Manager if the city has bids so that they can do all the things
required by the grant; she said before th.e grant is accepted this
information should be there. The City Manager answered that estimates
were obtained in order to develop the application. When the city
gets to th.e point of signing a contract then the items become
biddable a$ public improvement jobs.
Mr. Ceasar said "there is a 10% leeway built into the grant
itself which would help if there is a slight movement in dollars.

2. Utility Payments - Report by Vice Mayor Disraelly. Dis-
cussion and Possible Action to modify Section 19 of Ord-
inance No. 0-80-35 delinquency payments.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION:City Attorney
•7as authorized to change Section 19
o.` this Ordinance.
V/M Disraelly brought to the attention of the Council the many complaints
which the city has had about receiving late notices concerning billing.
He introduced Linda Conrad who handles these complaints. She indicated
in a memo to Steve Wood about the problems in this area. The V/M said
the problem seems to have a simple solution: the present ordinance says
that service bills not paid within 14 calendar days after the date
rendered, the city will mail a notice to the party posting the deposit.
'hat notice will inform the customers not paid within 30 days from the
original due date of the payment,service will be disconnected. Part of
the problem is that the rendering date could be 5 days prior to the date
that it is received by the homeowner. This reduces the number of days
a person has to pay it. Linda Conrad said they are mailing approximately

24. Isles of Tamarac/Club Sho in Plaza - Discussion and
Possible Action on Water and Sewer Developer Agreements
for these &ojects (tabled from 10/14/81).
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: Action on Water
and Sewer Developer Agreements was
denied but the city does offer to
reimburse them for the monthly payments
to the extent of whatever it turns out
to be mathematically.
fir. Kenneth Rubin, the attorney for the Club Shopping
Plaza, read into the record the memo submitted to the City
Council two weeks earlier: "On August 31, 1977, Schmidt Industries,
Inc.,entered into an Agreement (Developer) with Tamarac Utilities,Inc.,
for the Isles of 'Tamarac (Westwood 7) for 292 Units (ERC's), a copy of
said Agreement is attached hereto as '',.nhibit "A". On January 22), 1979,
Club Shopping Plaza Assoc. entered into an Aareement (Developer) with
Tamarac Utilities, Inc. for Club Shopping (.;j ;:j
Plaza) for 11 Units (ERC's). A copy of said Agreement is attached hereto
as Exhibit B. On January 2, 1979, G.M.G. Investments Co.,Inc., notified
Richard B. Shapiro of Tamarac Utilities, Inc., by letter (a copy of
Tape which is annexed hereto as Exhibit C) that they were transferring to
3 Club Shopping Plaza Assoc., 11 ERC's that were presently reserved to
G.M.G. Investments Co.,Inc. On January 19, 1979, Meyer, Leben, Fixel
& Cantabi,P.A. attorneys for Schmidt Inds.,Inc. and Saul Schmidt
individually, notified Richard B. Shapiro of Tamarac Utilities that
G.M.G. Investments Co.,Inc. were not and have not been "the owners of
the 11 ERC's but belong to their client, Schmidt Industries, Inc." On
July 31, 1979, Tamarac Utilities, Inc. and the City of Tamarac entered
iaiLo an Agreer:ucnt of Purchase and Sale for t1ie Utility Co.lpany w'-icli
was authorized by the City of Tamarac, Florida Resolution #79-198, a
copy of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit E. Paragraph 19 ACCOUNTS
PAYABLE (Page 33 of the Agreement) and Exhibit C (l) of the Agreement
which are annexed hereto as Exhibit F are the Agreement provisions
pertaining- to the matter at issue. The City of Tamarac has now taken tr.e
position that G.M.G. Investments, Ines letter (Exhibit C) authorized
the transfer of 11 ERC's to CLUB SHOPPING PLAZA ASSOCIATES, thereby
reducing G.M.G.'s total ERC's-by-,11, which are presently -held -by -CLUB
SHOPPING PLAZA ASSOCIATES. It is the contention of SCHMIDT INDUSTRIES,
INC., and CLUB SHOPPING PLAZA ASSOC. that when their Developer's
Agreements were entered into, full fees were paid to TAMARAC UTILITIES
INC. for both Developer's Agreements. At no time was it intended that
the transfer, (if there act- _ly was a transfer) be permanent. Any
transfer was conditional uni . the moratorium was lifted which was in
effect at the time when CLU,. HOPPING PLAZA ASSOC. Developer's Agreement
was executed. It was under, od by all the parties that at the end of
the moratorium, CLUB SHOPPI. PLAZA ASSOC. would"immediately be
recognized as owning its owr,"' RC's since payment had been demanded and
made to TAMARAC UTILITIES, T , prior to the expiration of the moratorium
SCHMIDT INDUSTRIES, Inca at it time, would also own all 292 of its
own ERC's. That is why no r:-'.lnd was made to SCHMIDT INDUSTRIES, INC.
The legality of G.M.G. InveF--,�.nts, Inc., authorizing the conditional
transfer has to be questioned. IAr'IARAC UTILITIES, Inc., knew-
that--G.M.G. INVESTMENTS, INC., di-d n.nt tern the 11 ERC's.
- 6 - 10/28/81
/pm
Tamarac Utilities, Inc. accepted.
$3,498.00 from Club Shopping Plaza Associates upon the execution
of the developer's agreement. Tamarac Utilities Inc. never attempted
to revoke or did revoke the agreement when it received the attorneys'
letter (Exhibit D). After the purchase of the Utility Company by the
City of Tamarac, Schmidt Industries, Inc. continued to make it's
monthly payments for it's ERC's based on 292 units. To this date,
the City of Tamarac on a monthly basis had been receiving and
accepting the monthly payments based upon 292 and not upon 281 ERC's.
In summary, the City of Tamarac is obligated to recognize the.
developer's agreements by the terms and conditions of the agreement
of purchase and sale. The City of Tamarac has always accepted
payment for ERC's based upon 292 not 281. The City of Tamarac must
recognize that Club Shopping Plaza developer's agreement for 11 ERC's
and the Schmidt Industries, Inc. developer's agreement for 292 ERC's."
X
Mr. Kenneth Rubin said that this is lust a matt;Pr of
Both Club Shopping Plaza and Schmidt Industries have
developer's agreements. They have both paid the full price at the
time for the total ownership. Schmidt Industries has been paying for
approximately 2-1/2 years the full reservation fee for 292 ERC's.
Consultant City Attorney Alan Ruf said that in going through the files
of the utility that the attorneys for Schmidt Industries had a letter
stating that G.M.G. had no ERC's to transfer. A week later they sent
a second letter to the utility saying that there probably were lots
which Mr. Glusman could have.
Mr. Frank Glusman, President of G.M.G. Investment Co.,Inc.,
said that they loaned these 11 ERC's to Schmidt on a temporary
basis and Mr. Shapiro had said not to disturb the records. Since that
time they have been making payments every month.
Attorney Ruf said the problem with the argument is that the city did
not get paid, and the fault found in the memo
presented and read into the record is that the statement that all
parties knew what the transaction was is false since the City of
Tamarac did not know what the transaction was. The only thing that
the City of Tamarac knew was that at the time that it purchased the
utility, it assumed the obligation under several existing developer
agreements. Those existing developer agreements were set forth in
a schedule which was attached to the contract. The Club Shopping
Plaza developer agreement was not part of the City Attorney's
investigation. It did not appear on the schedule of developer's
agreements which was given to him by the utility because the project
had been completed. The City Attorney said he had no information that
would have led him to believe that Schmidt Industries developer's
agreement was any more than,-281 ERC's in total. The problem was that
the city did not have available to it that they should make a transfer
back to G.M.G. or to Schmidt Industries. There are still outstanding
developer's agreements with others. The City Attorney said that he
believes if there is any cause of action it is against Tamarac
Utilities, Inc. and not the City of Tamarac. However, Mr. Ruf
recommended to the City Council that they consider that the city has
received approximately $3,000 for guaranteed revenue payments, and
it would set a very dangerous precedent for this Council to take any
position other than that theJ: relief was against the former utility
for double payment.
Mr. Barry Eden, partner in Club Shopping Plaza, Associates,
said that since the city has been accepting these payments it does
have an obligation to recognize these 11 ERC's. There were the
obligations recorded at the time the City purchased the utility.
Mr. Eden said he feels that the City of Tamarac should take Tamarac
Utilities to task, not the innocent parties.

died for want of a second.
Vice Mayor Disraelly commented that the repayment of the amount

11 ERC's. SECONDED by Vice Mayor Disraelly.

23. Isles of Tamarac - Model Sales Facility - Discussion and
Possible Action on:
a) Request for permit for model sales facility.
b) report by City Engineer on corrective work to be done
in this area. (Tabled from 9/23/81 Meeting).
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: a)_ Aot)roved
with stipulations. b) City
Engineer reported that only 4
items remain to be completed
on the punch list.
Mr. Gary Glusman, Secretary of G.M.G. Investment Co.
said the Model Sales complex of the Isles of Tamarac
involves 3 new models to be built on Nob Hill Rd. on their perimeter
lots. fie said he has met with the city staff and Council and has
complied with all the necessary requirements to conform to city
codes.
C/W Massaro said she has a rather extensive list and the City
Engineer said all but 4 items on this list have been corrected.
The Vice Mayor said he has 2 lists, one dated September 2, 1981
with 32 items on it and one dated September 23, 1981 with 14 items
on it. He questioned whether the 32 has been reduced to 14 or if
they are new items added. Larry Keating said these are a combination
of 2 punch lists: one which regards paving and drainage and the
second regards water and sewer.
C/W Massaro said she would like to bring to Council and the
City Attorney's attention the fact that the median on McNab Rd. was
either to be curbed on the north side or the trees were to be removed.
It was anticipated that the construction of the shopping center would
move forward much sooner than it has so that the city was reluctant
to take any sort of action. It is very indefinite, at this point,
when this shopping center will be completed.
Mr. Birken said it is his opinion that, provided Isles of
Tamarac are willing to do whatever the city asks, the city should
move forward subject to their taking prompt action on the recommend-
ations of the City Engineer and the City Attorney.
Vice Mayor Disraelly brought up the complaints most members
of Council have had from residents df this area pertaining to
drainage. He said that in the streets the drainage is poor, it ponds
and does not go to the right of way. Between 70th Street and 70th
Court the drainage is poor, at 10418 70th Court there is a problem.
At 10418 NW Court there is also a problem, at 104th Avenue on the
SE corner of 70th Street the runoff does not go in the_proper_direction
CMF*,=
10/28/81
/pm
The SW corner of 103rd Avenue and 70th Street also has
drainage problems. On 71st Place the driveway in front of
10418 is low and there is a catch basin within 30' of it
and it is impossible for the water to get to that catch
basin, because the grading goes up instead of down. These
things have been observed by him personally he said.
C/W Massaro said that in other areas where this is a problem
the developers were required to go back in and regrade these
areas to an extent to allow the water to flow out to a catch
basin. She said these corrections should be made.
Vice Mayor Disraelly MOVED that the City should change Item
23 (a) to read "request for permit for model sales facility"
rather than "extension of this permit". SECONDED by C/W
Massaro.

Vice Mayor Disraelly questioned the guardrail locations.
Mr. Bryan answered that in Stipulation 49 the City would
relocate the guardrail if necessary and F & R Builders would
build the sidewalks across. Mr. Bryan said the guardrails
should be located on the north side of the sidewalk.
TAPE Mr. Bryan said for the record that where canals abut existing
4 roadways, F & R Builders will provide from the edge of right -Of
-sway (a distance of 30' to the designed edge of water).
C/W Massaro said that the sidewalk should be extended to the
center of the existing canal.
Richard Rubin said these changes are being included in the
Developer's Review Sheet. He referred to the approved memo
from the City Engineering Department regarding the fees and
bond schedule.
C/W Massaro asked the City Planner if the parking islands are
curbed on this plan. He said all parking and drive areas not
protected by wheel stops are to have continuous concrete curbing.
C/W Massaro said concerning the guardrails --if relocation is
necessary they will be subject to the City Engineer's approval.
Mr. Rubin said that beautification plans are also submitted
with this application and required to be approved by the City
Planner for further stipulation. In general review the plans
seem to be in compliance but the City Planner made one request
to the applicant:t]"a plan shows a line of umbrella trees
along the waterway. Mr. Rubin asked that these be exchanged
with a more substantial shade tree, such as gumbo limbo. He
said on verbal communication with the architect there was no
problem with this suggestion. Mr. Bryant said that F & R
Builders will agree to change those. Mr. Rubin said the
applicant has also agreed to place, at the Planning Commission's
request, battery operated smoke detectors in each unit.
Vice Mayor Disraelly said that the dumpster for the two --story
buildings are at the far end of one building. He expressed
the concern for those who have to walk this great distance
perhaps several times a day to discard garbage. He suggested
the -minimum should be one at each end of these buildings.
The Site Plan was redlined with the addition of dumpsters
at either end and initialled by the owners. They are located
north of Building ##2, on Building #k1 it will be on the west
side, for Building #8 there is one in the center of the parking
area and it is across the parking area from the end unit.
These are the only two-story buildings, the rest have enclosed
dumpsters in the center of the building.
C1W Massaro MOVED that the Site Plan Temn. Reso. 42085,
which is the Site Plan for the Ashmont Project, be APPROVED,
subject to the following conditions: that the excavation of
all canals not be closer than 30' from the property line;
property line and water line being one. That the additional
excavations for which they will be given credit toward the 50--
retention, will be excavated in a manner that will be in
compliance with the city's code and that no excavation can be
made any closer than 30 feet from the property line. Any
guardrails that may need to be relocated by the city will be
subject to the City Engineer'stapparoval and any notes on the
engineering plans which relate to the guardrails will be dis-
regarded. All other notes on the engineering plans (as have
- 10 -

been redlined) as of now will be a part of this motion.
Extend the sidewalk to the center line of the canal at the
SW corner and the NE corner of this project. Substitute the
gumbo limbos for the shefflera along the rear of the buildings,
(as redlined on the site plan). Provide second dumpsters for
all two-story buildings (as redlined on the site plan).
Provide battery operated smoke detectors in each unit as has
been voluntarily offered. All of this will be subject to
the appropriate fees being paid and bonds being posted at
the appropriate time. SECONDED by Vice Mayor Disraelly.
Mr. Bryan said, for the record, that there are four checks.
One for the drainage improvement fee at $130 per acre,(a portion
of which has already,been paid --this one is for the balance),
a check for the park fee at the rate of $95.00 a unit times
299 units, there is the first interest payment due under the
Water and Sewer Developers Agreement at the rate of 14% per
year divided by 12 months and the remaining check is the
engineering review fee under the Water and Sewer Agreement
requirements which is a $500.00 check.
C/W Massaro said, for the record,that the check for the upgrading
of the drainage system, which is $130 per acre, is for Tract 17
and Tract 13 was paid according to the applicant by the previous
owner of the property subject to review.

RESOLUTION 11O.R--PASSED.
Attorney Birken read the Resolution by title.
Barbara Sherpin represented the petitioner on this item. There
are presently 69 parking spaces awarded to this shopping center.
They need 84, L'Hostaria Restaurant will need 20 spaces also.
In order to allow this expansion, they will need 87 spaces;
18 more :than now provided.
On October 7 the Planning Commission approved the waiver of 12
spaces for the Plaza. In order for there to be full capacity
and full tenancy in the Plaza, there will need to be an additional
15 spaces for parking.
C/W Massaro said that this particular shopping center has not
been too successful in renting probably due to the condition
of the shopping center itself.` The one exception is the
L'Hostaria Restaurant, which is a credit to the city.

Mayor Falck opened the public hearing. Mr. Morris Landsman said
that whatever waiver of parking is made, the handicapped spaces
should be retained. Mayor Falck assured him this would stay in-
tact. The public hearing was closed after there was no further
response.
Vice Mayor Disraelly MOVED the limited waiver of 18 parkinq
spaces (based on computations by the City Planner spaces`.
for the shopping center, whereby there will be 85 spaces provided
and 2 handicapped spaces. Provided that:
the dumpster enclosure on 57th St. be enlarged to handle all
dumpsters for the shopping center, that the dumpster enclosure
on Commercial Blvd. be removed thereby creating 2 more parkinq
spaces,therefore, the waiver should be reduced to 16 spaces, that
all dumpsters shall be enclosed in the dumpster enclosure on
57th St., that hedges will be installed along the west wall
between the Deli Warehouse and the new dumpster as was required by
the Revised Site Plan approved last February 11 (which has not
been done), that hedges be installed along 57th St., 66th Terr.,
and Commercial Blvd.in conformance with the City's beautification
ordinance and that be done within the next 90 days, that they
present to the City a Revised Site Plan for the expanded size
of the new dumpster. That no future rentals for any business
will be permitted or granted an occupational license other than
those requiring not more than one (1) space per 200 square feet.
That the area between the building and the wall erected by the
funeral home shall be cleaned and kept in a neat and orderly
condition, which is horrendous today; that the Deli Warehouse
be advised they are not to permit flats for .the receipt of
merchandise or other pallets to be placed along side the sidewalk
adjacent to their building. That the outstanding invoice for
Tamarac Utilities shall be paid within thirty (30) days.
C/W Massaro said she did not like the time limit on any of the
aforementioned conditions.
C/M Zemel asked if there was a condition stating that it was all
subject to the L'Hostaria Restaurant expanding it's business
activity to adjoining rental bays. He said it must be tied down
as to why the City is giving them additional spaces.
The City Attorney said that this should be made clear that
a certain number of spaces are for this purpose.
Vice Mayor Disraelly continued his MOTION; that conditional on
L'Hostaria Restaurant renting and using the adjoining bay of 797
square feet in addition to their own present location of 1,594
square feet
Attorney Birken said his questions concerning this involve time.
Concerning the L'Hostaria Restaurant, Mr. Shapiro said that
construction will begin the coming week, with a permit to be
pulled within 30 days.

C/W Massaro said that 90 days is too much time for the hedges
to be installed along 57th St., 66th Terr., and Commercial Blvd.
Mr. Shapiro said that 60 days would be a realistic time allotment
for this. He said there might be a problem in enlarging the
dumpsters. There is difficulty in getting the right sub -contractor.
C/W Massaro said she heard "shrubs" but nothing concerning "trees".
V/M Disraelly Amended his MOTION to state "hedges and trees
according to the Citv Ordinance".
C/W Massaro said that the unpaid bill should be paid within one
week.
V/M Disraelly Amended his Motion that the thirty (30) days originally
given for the payment of the outstanding invoice to Tamarac Utilities
should be chanaed to one (1) week.
Mayor Falck suggested referring to the Resolution. Vice Mayor
Disraelly;,MOVDD the ADOPTION of Temp. Reso. #2074 grantinq
a limited waiver.
C/M Zemel SECONDED.
Attorney Birken said in order to tie this down further, since
there will not be sufficient parking until the waiver is in
effect, the approval of the waiver should be effective upon the
completion of all the items required in this MOTION. This would
mean that they would not be able to occupy and use the expanded
area of L'Hostaria or any additional bays until all the work is
done; so that, instead of the Resolution being effective upon
adoption, it would be effective upon completion of all of the
conditions set forth in the Resolution, as determined by the
City Manager.
C/W Massaro said that she would love to see them rent their place
but she would also like to see them do the work. She said if they
move forward in a positive manner, at the next regular meeting
of Council, if the deadlines set here cannot be met, the Council
would reconsider it at that time. She said although it was not
included in the MOTION, she would like to see the building painted.
Vice Mayor Disraelly added to the MOTION that these other 3 bays
will not be granted occupational license until the work has been
completed, other than the one for L'Hostaria.
Vice Playor Disraelly read Section 2 of the Resolution: "This
Resolution shall become effective upon completion of all the
conditions set forth by the POTION". Attorney Birken added that
they can obtain Building Permits for L'Hostaria. Vice 21ayor
Disraelly suggested to Mr. Shapiro that he get in touch with
Richard Rubin who will outline the specifications

to Admiral Insurance Agency,
Inc. at premium of $15,702.00
Judy Deutsch said the coverage of insurance expires Novemher 1,
1981. She said the City Attorney had raised the question con-
cerning the attorney's fees for the claimant. She said she has
not seen a policy where this is spelled out and coverage should
not be contingent on this item alone. As far as sovereign immunity;
this clause was in the policy last year and was in the policy
with National Sheriff's. This coverage is written through the
International Association of Police Chiefs.

Judy Deutsch said this is a standard Police Professional Policy.
The company reserves the right to adhere to Sovereign Immunity
or to waive that right. If the city requests in writing that
they would like them to adhere to the Sovereign Immunity doctrine,
fhpy will take it into abeyance, they have the final word.
Ms. Deutsch said as far as punitive damage goes, the city
explored this last year. The city decided against this coverage
last year. This has $25,000 coverage for a $3,000 premium.
Ms. neutsch said the last area is the retroactive coverage.
When you get this coverage, three years is the maximum coverage.
She said she is trying now to get all the policies to renew
on the new fiscal year. So, the specifications read "for a
minimum term of November 1, 1981 to October 1, 1982", which is
11 months, and then to continue for 2 more years unless either
party gives the other notice of cancellation. The reason this
was done is because the market is very "soft" now but the city
only received 2 bids. To protect the city, she feels the city
should reserve the option to renew if the premium stays fixed
or reasonable and not have to go through this again next ,year.

The City Manager said they are changing the proposal that
Council approved last year for Phase II of Tamarac Park to
embrace new criteria they have established for next year and
include work at both the Tamarac Ball Park and the Tract 27
Park. They are very interested this year in botanical and
ecological type of plantings and landscaping. It would be
very advantagous to take an improved area like the Tamarac
Ball Park and an area that they will be working on and utilize
the landscaping potentials of the Grant for both sites.

10/28/81
/pm
The first portion of the Element (which is the ecological
botanical planting), they give $2.00 to every $1.00 that the
City contributes. Our projection there is for $23,800.00 for
the botanical work on 'tract 27 and for the Tamarac Park. area.
The City would put in $8,000 and F.R.D.A.P. would put in
$16,000 . This would include clearing, grubbing of indigenous
plants and trees, ground cover, benches, tables, lighting,etc.
In the area of Tamarac Park they are projecting that the City's
share for the botanical planting work would be $5,000 and the
State of Florida for that area would contribute $10,000. In
each instance, that is what is called Element I of the work.
It is geared toward the features they are most interested in
for this next funding year. However, in addition to that,
Council had approved last November, 1980 a park funding
application for what was called Phase II. The new Grant
application will embrace an additional handball court for
the existing park area, and lights for the new and existing
handball court and lights for the existing ball field and soccer
field. That amount of money that would be necessary would be
an additional $51,450 of which the State of Florida would
contribute $17,150 and the City would have to contribute $34,300
which has been funded previously.
The Grant that was approved and sent to the State last year
was for $128,000 of which the City would have been responsible
for 2/3.
Richard Rubin said what could possibly be done, if the City
Attorney agrees, would be to have the Council pass a Resolution
pending more information coming to the Council and the City
Planner would get it before the Council for review the next
day. This Grant does not require construction to be completed
for 2-1/2 years. There are 2 applications that the City Planner
and the City Manager are suggesting be applied for: one is to
complete the existing park with the handball court and lighting
for the baseball field and the ecology area: upgrading this into
a nice picnic area (the highest priority on the State level).
This information came to the City Manager in late September
that returned the application that was submitted last February.
It was not until the last week or so that it was established
from them the type of criteria they were gearing for the
next funding year.
Vice Mayor Disraelly said it would seem logical to him that
the potential grant for Tract 27 be accepted. The City rianager
said that the city must reflect both the botanical aspect and
active recreation facility improvements on the site. There are
2 elements to each application.
C1W Massaro asked if this Grant could help to pay for Engineering.
fir. Rubin replied that this could be put into the application;
he has a list with items and their potential cost:
1) 2 handball courts $18,000
2) soccer field -grading &
irrigation 15,000
3) lighting or engineering,
architectural costs 36,700
$69,4700
fir. Rubin said they specify "indigenous" trees and shrubbery
because they are looking for a ;gar)-, that is dedicates' to this

The City's share of this amount ($69,700) would be $32,400
and the State's share would be $28,000. This is not a 2 for 1
Grant. There are 2 different formulas based upon the state's
priority: on the $23,300 the State gives the City $2 for every
$1 the City puts up; on the active recreation the State gives
the City $1 for every $2 the City puts up.
Of the active areas from last year's program for Tamarac Park,
there was 1 handball court (which was $10,250), lighting for
new and the existing handball court ($3,700) and lights for
existing ball fields ($37,500), this totals $51,450 of that
the State gives the City $l for every $2 the City puts in.
