C/M Zemel said that all members of Council have received copies of memos
and backup material from him on this subject. For the record, he wanted
to indicate that the final report of the Broward County Grand Jury for the
fall term of 1980 was issued on March 5, 1981. Specifically, the Grand
Jury's inquiry was into organized crime. Their initial purpose was to take
testimony in an attempt to ascertain the extent to which Broward County has
an organized crime problem, to assess local law enforcement's ability to
appropriately deal with the problem, and to identify specific needs in ordez
to significantly improve the County's response to this problem. The Grand
Jury's findings indicated specifically that organized crime is perhaps the
- 4 - 12/9/81
/pm
most subversive movement in the history of the United States and virtually
being ignored by the Government. The Cities of Hallandale, Sunrise,
Plantation, Lauderhill and Coral Springs have admittedly organized crime
problems and this element is creeping into the surrounding cities. Of
approximately 160 organized crime family members and associates identified
by the Broward Sheriff's office as operating in this County, not one was
arrested.by that Department during 1980. The Grand Jury has recommended
and the Broward County Chiefs' of Police Association has established a
County -wide Organized Crime Task Force and cities are now participating
by committing one or more of their police officers to be part of this
Task Force.

9. Expense Reimbursement - Temp. Ord. #942 -- Discussion and possible
action to provide for the reimbursement of luncheon expenses to the
members of the Planning Commission. First reading.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED
on first reading.
Mr. Birken read the Ordinance by title. V/M Disraelly said that he is glad
to see that the ordinance, in Sec. 2, states that the members will have
to provide the City Manager with a receipt indicating the monies expended
by the individual Planning Commission members. Based on the input received
from the various members of the Council by memo, there is no one opposed to
this particular ordinance and the fact that they are reimbursed within the
provisions of the state statutes. On any day that they meet when it is an
all -day meeting, the City Attorney can handle this. C/W Massaro said that
there has been some discussion and this could turn out to be a problem.
She said the Council should enter into this with their eyes open and if it
does become a problem they may have to rescind.
V/M Disraelly said as far as he is concerned, this is the only committee
that meets both mornings and afternoons. This ordinance refers to payment
of the Planning Commission only. V/M Disraelly MOVED the adoption of
Temp. Ord. #942 provided Mr. Birken can put in something concerning meeting
"prior to 10:00 A.M.". C/W Massaro said she would SECOND this MOTION with
her comment. C/M Zemel said that volunteers are certainly entitled to
reimbursement of this kind, however, he is very much afraid that Pandora's
box is being opened. He said the only way he could go along with this is
if they reimburse all committees that meet from morning through afternoon.
V/M Disraelly said that in his memo to Council he indicated that his major
concern was the reaction of other committees and all non -paid volunteers.
- 5 - 12/9/81
/Pm
V/PZ Disraelly said that he remarked when he 140VED the ADOPTION of this
Ordinance that this is the only Committee that meets both morning and
afternoon of necessity.
Consumer Board meets trom 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 and it is one member only who
is involved on a daily basis. When they hold their monthly meeting it is a
short meeting, there is no reason for them to carry forward. The Public
Information Committee has no reason to extend their program beyond either a
morning or in an afternoon. The Board of Adjustment, under normal circurn-
stances, has only one item on i.ts, auenda at any given time and they meet
once a month, only when there is demand for their services. In the last
five years they have not met beyond the morning session. This Ordinance
addresses itself only to the Planning Commission. There should be no problem.
C/M Kravitz said he would. like t?) -point out that the P2iami Herald ran an
article with a cartoon that said, "The City isn't paying me but they'll pay
plenty for the lunch". Fie said he thinks the publicity on this is bad and
Council should take this into consideration before anything is done.
Mayor Falck said the Council is more excited about this than he is. He said
he thinks these things do not cost... they pay. He has personally seen
instancesnwhere this has been the case. Some of the Planning Commission will
turn in lunch receipts and others will not.
C/M Zemel said that not only should the Planning Commission be reimbursed
for lunch, but every other Committee that works through the lunch hour.
Everyone who gives their time is certainly entitled to lunch.
Melanie Reynolds said if the Council would read the interpretations of
112.061 this is not allowed under the State Statute. Attorney Birken.said
that 112.n6l specifically states that it only applies if there is not state,
law or local law (which an Ordinance is) in conflict with it. That is why
it is necessary to have an Ordinance and that is why the Ordinance spells it
out and the legality of the Ordinance is not a deterrent.
V/11 Disraelly mentioned that certain members of the Planning Commission hand
in mileage for reimbursement and others do not, yet they are entitled to this.
The total expense that is being talked about cannot exceed $1,000, if everyone
put in a receipt for every meeting they attended.

C/W Massaro said that conditions have not changed at all. V/M Disraelly
said there is one problem, when this was last renewed on May 27 the
expiration date had been passed. Originally this was renewed on
February 13, 1980, then on September 10, 1980 it was renewed from August
13, 1980. Then on May 27, 1931 they came in again. There are no

Attorney Birken suggested that this be treated as a new First Reading
since the title has changed; he read the ordinance by title.
V/M Disraelly said that on the original Ord. #921 there was talk about
spring -activated or mechanically, electrically activated doors. After
due consideration and discussion it was decided that this was an
impractical matter and this has, therefore, been rewritten to indicate
that in addition to the gates that are normally used for the dumpster,_
that a fire --rated door of 30" minimum width for accessibility by tenants
be incorporated. This is the same type of situation that prevails for
commercial dumpsters whereby no gates will have to be opened; they can
_just pull the door open and walk in with the trash.

13. University_ Community Hospital - Revised Site Plan -
Discussion and Possible Action on a Revised Site Plan
for an incinerator.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: TABLED
until Council is ready.
Frank Basile, Assistant Administrator of University Community Hospital
addressea the Council. He said they are basically asking for a Revised
Site Plan to put in a 8400 square foot incinerator with double tanks with
Propane to burn all the trash. At this time they are having very much
difficulty in getting rid of hospital waste and normal waste coming from
the hospital which is put in land -fill locally but the isolation bags,
the "red bags" that everyone has heard about, is being trucked to Georgia.
This is very costly and costs the hospital approximately $25,000 per year.
Whereas, 90% of the other waste is costing approximately $20,000 per year.
The incinerator asked for on the Revised Site Plan is by a Florida -based
company; they have a number of incinerators in the Plantation, Fort
Lauderdale area. It is licensed by the State, it meets all EPA guidelines
and will continue to meet the guidelines.
Mayor Falck asked if they had any discussions with the health people.
Mr. Basile said they went to the state and there is a state license and
you have to publish a public notice and the hospital has just received
the approval from the state. The County people said there will be no
problem because they are well aware of this incinerator and they feel it
is the best being built right now.
V/M Disraelly asked if there is any ash -output from this. Mr. Basile said
"no, there should be no odor either.They use a combination of steam and
a number of things and it should be absolutely clear".
C/W Massaro asked if there were incinerators like this close by so that
Council could observe for themselves. Mr. Basile said the Chief Building
Official has gone down to see the one in Plantation. C/W Massaro asked
if this incinerator in Plantation is in the same proximity to homes, etc.
Mr. Basile said it is probably closer to Plantation Hospital. There are
homes within 2001to 300' of the hospital. It is in a much more congested
area than we are in.
Ray Kaliski said he is a permanent resident of Concord Village, which is
at University Dr. and McNab Rd. He is speaking on behalf on himself and
over 400 unit owners. They first learned about this proposed incinerator
on Sunday (December 6) and the word "incinerator" is a red flag to him
and others. He said he moved to Tamarac because it is clean and, although
there are minor problems with the atmosphere --sewer gases and smoke from
the Everglades, why should the town add to this? It would be strictly
to save a.profit organization, not a voluntary hospital, money; namely,
$25,000 per year. What will this do to the citizens of Tamarac who live
within 1,000 feet or perhaps less of this incinerator? He said everyone
knows when you burn something there has to be a by-product. People who
live in the north know; there is no such thing as an odorless smokeless
incinerator. He said that Mr. Basile, by his own admission, stated that
they want to get rid of the so-called "red bags". This is infectious
material. What if there is a day the incinerator does not work properly
and the debris of this infectious material is coming over the homes. He
said he feels that as a resident of Tamarac he is entitled to a few things
such as the blue sky, the sunshine and the clear air; not to have more
pollution added; there is natural pollution that cannot be helped. HP said
he is entitled to have the City of Tamarac stay the beautiful town that
it is. The people want to protect their investments and live out their
lives here and feel to put in their back yards any kind of an incinerator
just to save a business is unfair.

Morris frozen from Bermuda Club spoke next. lie said he had a call to
appear before Council particularly on this item. Ile said there are
1,000 apartment residents who are very much concerned about this.
He said if there are any members of Council who are in sympathy with
this idea to install an incinerator, there should be much more study
on it. He said the important thing is to note that this is a profit
organization and to save $25,000 a year they would impose upon the
City something from which they may never recover. He asked Council to
consider denying this request for t'As incinerator.
C/W Massaro said that this does need further study and the Council should
get in touch with other hospitals in close proximity like Holy Cross and
Plantation. She MOVED that this item be TABLED not to a date but to a
time when Council is ready f6r it. SECONDED by C/14 Zemel.
V/AZ Disraelly asked Mr. Basile what the height of the stack would be on
this incinerator. Mr. Basile answered he is unsure but thinks it is over
30'. Mr. Basile said that the $25,000 savings that he mentioned earlier
is a direct savings to the patient. Ile said the state and Federal governmen
is very stringent on incinerators and they are not like they used to be.
lie said the hospital qualifies as residents of Tamarac also and they are
concerned with the environmental conditions and would not put anything in
that would jeopardize the community, citizens or the patients. V/M
Disraelly asked the approximate cost of this. Mr. Basile answered $80,000.

Sidney Stein representing the Property Owners Association of Woodmont
said he would like to go on record as stating that they are completely

Rainey Rissman, the developer of Bonaire said they would like to go on

the legal ramifications but they would certainly fight this thing as
much as they could and he is certain it would cost them more than $25,000
a year to defend it.
11r. I:aliski asked that he and other people present be notified when this
will appear again. V/P1 Disraelly said if Mr. Kaliski would give him his
name and telephone number he would see to it that he is advised when it
appears on the agenda.
Mayor Falck questioned the City Attorney as to the procedure of putting
this back on the agenda at a future date and the City Attorney said that
whenever a member of Council wants to put it back on the agenda this can
be done. V/M Disraelly will set up a tour for the Council to observe
other local incinerators.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED
with conditions. or 6 months
from 12/10/81.
Joe D'Amore from Rissmont asked the Council about a renewal fee that is
based upon the total number of units in the development. That fee is
about $875.00. In addition to that, they have already posted with the
City a permanent Model Center fee of $875.00. That fee was to take
effect as of the CO date --a permanent center. In effect, they have two
model centers, a temporary trailer and the permanent center. He said they
only have a 3 to 4 week gap from their requesting the CO for their
permanent center. So that they presented the $875.00 for the renewal fee
on the trailer which, in effect, will no longer be operating within 3 to
4 weeks from today. Their second $875.00 (which was previously posted),
will then be in effect for the main center so there will be an overlap
- 10 - 12/9/81
/pm
with the effective date of the CO. They would,in effect, be paying a
fee for the operation of two model centers simultaneously while they
are really only occupying one at any one time. Mr. D'Amore questioned if
there is anv wav thev can get some relief on the overlap?
C/W Massaro said that, unfortunately, there is nothing in the provisions
which provides for any partial payments and it is their choice. They
can eliminate one or they have to pay the fee. The City Attorney agreed.
Mr. D'Amore asked if there is any way they can overlap the time period?
Perhaps start the consecutive fee for the permanent model center a few
months back? C/W Massaro said they could if they are not using it.

C/W Massaro read the Resolution by title. She said this work has been
completed satisfactorily and she MOVED that this bond be released as
approved by the City Engineer. This is a $6,000 cash bond.
V/M Disraelly SECONDED this Motion.
V/M Disraelly asked Mr. Birken in regard to Fairways, when the last
Site Plan was approved changing the parking to angle parking to provide
five spaces that were short, etc., on, that site plan and on prior site
plans it showed a sidewalk running from Bldg. D to 88th Terrace in order
that the dumpsters could be taken out to 88th Terrace. There have been
complaints from the President of the Association whereby the dumpster
noise disturbed the residents of the building.
The Vice Mayor asked how can the city get him to put this passage way in?
Attorney Birken asked if this referred to A & B or C & D? The Vice Mayor
said it concerned C & D. The City Attorney replied that the developer
will be in the Council Chambers at 3:00 p.m. so this could be addressed
at that time. Ile suggested not voting on 24 until he is addressed on
25 also.
C/W Massaro said that she would like to state for the record that the
understanding at that time was that in order to save the people from
having to have another Revised Site Plan that the people were supposed
to pay for that sidewalk. She said if you go back to the comments in the
Minutes it is perhaps in there too.
C/W Massaro said that she will withdraw her Motion. Mayor Falck said
that action will be held until the afternoon when Item 25 is heard.

Hal Lewis, Fund Raising Director for the American Cancer Society spoke

organization.
C/W Massaro said they understand and realize the important work that the
American Cancer Society does, but the City does have a problem with the
carnivals and there are certain organizations within the City that will
have to be restricted from carnivals also. The Police Chief is very much
against the carnivals because of problems that have resulted from them,

they already have. She MOVED that this petition for the carnival at this

mayor Falck said there are items to be discussed and he referred to
the meeting that is scheduled for Thursday, December 10 at 2:00 p.m.
Council did receive information relating to a previous meeting, that
was very brief but it was on this subject and covered some of the
questions that were raised as a part of that discussion. At that
particular time, the Mayor felt that they could not accomplish anything
in a session that was being conducted with the Mayor, mainly because
of the fact that there are too many conflicting observations and
statements.
C/M Zemel said that when the city did the drainage in the western section,
Section 24 specifically, the area no longer floods and is a great success.
There is an outstanding payment of $2,000 to the contractor Triple R and
he asked the City Engineer to agendize this for the next meeting or perhaps
later today. This final payment was subject to the final approval of
C/M Zemel and the City Engineer as stipulated by the Council.
C/W Massaro asked the City Manager if the city has gone to bid on Section

recommendation will be coming to Council for the December 28 meeting.
What remains to be done is a 'verification of the licensing of this

we include in their package the minutes of Council Meetings. The V/M
asked the City Clerk to handle this matter administratively. There were
two matters of beautification that concern everyone: On November 20 the
City Planner and the Vice Mayor took a trip around Family Mart reviewing
the problems that exist over there of trees missing and the irrigation
system, etc. The V/M said he hopes some action will be taken on this
because this area is filthy. The City Ordinances require that dead or
missing trees be replaced anj he requested the City Manager handle this
matter further. The same applied to McNab Plaza which has been deterior-
ating and the fact that their sprinkler system is no longer working, the
grass is all dead and should be replaced and this should be taken care of.
Tamarac Plaza, where the Deli Warehouse is, is another problem area.
They have not been collecting the garbage and trash there on a daily
basis (which is required) and the city will have to take measures to be
sure that this is done. The Revised Site Plan requires a larger dumpster
and some plantings have been replaced but the most important thing is to
get the dumpster enclosure enlarged. The Code Enforcement Officer must
go there practically daily and this is a health hazard, especially since
there are residents directly across the street from this area. V/M said
the city got a letter from their attorney talking about the sidewalk. He
wants to wait for an assessment district, which was discussed at the
Council meeting as to the possibility of an assessment district.
V/M Disraelly said he did not think the owner of Tamarac Plaza was given
the option. In the Resolution, he was to either post a bond or do the
work and that was his option and not wait for an assessment district.
Otherwise, we could establish an assessment district tomorrow and get
the same work done in that manner. There was a timetable on the
sidewalk but there should be no timetable whatsoever to get that place
cleaned up in a sanitary condition.
P4a or Falck -- Said he would like to make several observations: First,
he is very happy to be able to announce that they received a special
achievement award this year from the United Way of Broward County. Our
contribution from City Hall this year was 1580 over last year so our
people did a very outstanding job and the Mayor will send a commendation
to each member who worked on this program. Iie said it is only right to
mention that the program was coordinated internally by Robin Carpenter,
Personnel Officer. On December 17, 1981, there will be a very important
meeting of the County Planning Council. There is an item on the agenda
that relates to changing the zoning at the Gold Coast School to permit
the parking of trailers at that particular area. This has been before
several agencies of the County and has not gotten very far, in fact,
Mayor Falck serves on the Planning Council and he does not understand
how it ever qot on the agenda without some prior approval but it is up
f_� the second and .final readinct.. The__peQ.t)le who are most affected, the
residents of the Boulevard section in Tamarac and the north section in
Tamarac have been notified and asked to have delegations down there.
It is strange that this project would be moved ahead this far without any
contact being made with the City of Tamarac. For years Tamarac has been
supplying the water and sewer service to that particular project over
there and he does not believe that Tamarac is in a position to expand
that service and they will be in full force at this meeting. He will
be speaking as the Mayor first being opposed to it because of the fact
that they have not cleared anything with the City of Tamarac on expanding
the utility services and he is a resident over there and he will take
a position on that and also he is a member of the Planning Council. The
Mayor said he felt. Council should know that this is up for concern and it
relates to the relationship of our people with the changes in zoning and
- 14 - 12/9/81

Mayor Falck - Continued
there have been enough problems over there without any more added.
C/W Massaro asked if the Mayor was looking for additional support at
this meeting and the Mayor said he did not know but would know by the
first part of next week.
V/M Disraelly asked if there has been any action on this up ',to this
point. Mayor Falck said the Planning Council heard this the first
time around and the procedure is that it is heard and no comments are
made, there is no discussion about it. There was a brief presentation
by Mr. Gustafson who represents the school in this area. It has been
heard once and the people over there have been properly notified.
Next Friday, December 18, 1981, there will be a meeting at the Courthouse
also. The Assistant City Attorney, Mr. Ruf, and the Mayor will attend
with the County officials in connection with the matter of the city's
waste water system, the tie-in that the Council is aware of.
Playor Falck said that at a previous meeting Commissioner Craft had
indicated that he would be getting a report and information from the
people specifically at the staff level in the County and it would be
discussed with us. The time of the meeting is 10:30 and the place is
Commissioner Craft's office. Attorney Birken mentioned that only one
member of Council can be at this meeting. Mayor Falck said that on
January 9, 1982 at 7:00 p.m. the League of Cities is sponsoring a meeting
with the Broward delegation and this will be held at Justin's on
University Dr. There has never been a Saturday night meeting and this
was the only time that the League could arrange it with the delegation.
They would like to have a good turn out. Hopefully, as many of our
people as possible can attend to visit.with and discuss matters in which
we are interested.
34. City Manager Report
Laura Stuurmans said she had a brief announcement as a report. They
will be closing the drive-in window at Tamarac Utilities next Wednesday
and Thursday for renovations on the drive -through and on the window.
Notices will be sent to the sections that will be receiving billings
at that time so as not to inconvenience too many customers.
C/W Massaro made an announcement for all the residents of Tamarac:
On Sunday, December 20, 1981, at 5:30 P.M. at the Tamarac Park, which
is on University Dr. next door to Tamarac Elementary School, there will
be a Iianukah/Christmas Festival of Lights Program. There will be clergy-
men there as well as choral and childrens' groups from the Temple and
Christian Churches and Santa will come there too. Children will receive
candy and gifts at the end of the Program. C/W Massaro extended the
invitation that everyone is welcome and for everyone to please come!
19. Colony West Country Club - Revised Site Plan - Dis-
cussion and Possible Action on a Revised Site Plan
for relocation of the clubhouse.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED
with conditions.
Syd Workman representing the owners of Colony West Country Club spoke and
he said in late July they received approval for construction of a new club-
house site. During the course of the site work, which started about
thirty days ago, they encountered some very severe soil conditions under
the proposed building. As .a result of that, they made a revised site
plan request to pivot the building slightly to avoid this. He had the
architect prepare a sketch that shows the old and the new and it is sealed
so that the Council can use this as a basis of reference. The red is the
old clubhouse layout, the shaded area represents the new proposed layout.
It essentially represents pivoting the clubhous-e..-This-.-change does not
affect any of the parking,it merely represents a shifting of a building
path.
- 15 - 12/9/81
/Pm
C/W Massaro said that at no time have they addressed the demolition of
the present clubhouse and she would like to address that now for the
record. Mr. Workman said that right now they are opening bids for the
construction of the new Country Club. As part of the overall plan, the
area where the existing clubhouse is today which is not shown on this
sketch but is on the original site plan, will be demolished and represent
a parking area. It is the intent to remove that as soon as possible
so that the new Country Club can open and complete thc- site xanrk.
A water and sewer line runs under or very close to that particular old
building. There is no intention of keeping that building for any reason
once the new clubhouse is open. As part of the bid package, it is the
contractor's responsibility to remove that as part of the overall cost
of this program -he does thessite work, removes the old building, as
well as constructs the new clubhouse.
C/W Massaro reauested Mr. Workman to state for the
record that.before final inspection on the new clubhouse, that building
will be demolished and removed completely. Mr. Workman asked if 'final
inspection Trer.pdes a CO? C/W Massaro answered 'yes'. He said that
this creates an awkward situation, they could not physically open a new
structure for business if they did not have a CO. This is required by
the city. Ile would need some lead time to close the old and move into
the new and he would say certainly from a period of thirty days from the
issuance of a CO the old building would be gone. C/W PZassaro stressed
that they do not have parking for two buildings.
C/W Massaro asked Mr. Birken if the city can attach this to the CO.
She said the transition should be immediate from the old building to the
new. Mr. Birken said this does not have to be included in the Motion.
The Building Dept. cannot issue a CO since there is insufficient parking
as long as both buildings are open at the same time. In order to get a
CO the old building will have to be closed. C/W Massaro asked about the
Australian Pines that affect the people in Sands Point. They are asking
that the trees be cut down to some height so that their view of the golf course
is not impaired. Mr. Workman said he has not had an opportunity to discuss
this with his client and they have to be on the agenda again in two weeks
so he asked that this item be put on the agenda also.
V/17 Disraelly asked how far the new clubhouse will be in relation to the
present clubhouse. Mr. Workman explained via the si.ketch he had distributed
earlier.
C/W Massaro MOVED the APPROVAL of the relocation of the clubhouse subject
with the followixnct provisions: 1) Provide one 36 inch culvert beneath 1-hP
golf cart crossing southeast of the clubhouse, 2) Provide fire lanes with
signs on the south and east side of the building, 3) Minimum height of
wall around pool to be 4 feet, 4) Final location of driveways to adjacent
residential parcels shall be determined by Council upon approval of
proposed residential developments, 5) that the clubhouse, which is in
existence now will absolutely be closed to any further business the day
of the CO being issued on the new building and that the demolition of
that building be completed within thirty days from the date of the CO.

35. Cit Attorne Re art -
Attorney Birken said there are two things he wants to mention: First,
there is a public hearing this evening at Fort Lauderdale City Hall at
7:30 P.M. on the runway extension requests and the City Attorney plans
to go there; not to oppose the re�3uest, but to point out to the FAA that
there may be some errors in the noise computations and the problem there
is that the city spent a considerable amount of money last year to engage
experts to review the material that the City of Fort Lauderdale experts
- 16 - 12/9/81
/pm
35. Cit Attorney Re ort - Continued
had prepared and we found some questions, or our experts found some
questions concerning noise which was not addressed in the final report.
Mr. Birken suggested bringing this to the attention of the FAA and they
can take whatever action they deem appropriate. Second,
as Council knows, 64th Ave. divides the City of Lauderhill and the City
of Tamarac. The property in Lauderhill is owned by Mr. Sadkin, who is
a fairly large developer in Broward County. Ile has advised us that he
desires to put the road in, that he has a buyer for the property and that
the County is insisting that the road be put in. A lot of research was
done last year on the ownership of 64th Ave. It appears, from the
information that the City Attorney has, that 64th Ave. is not a County
road. They did not have a right to just get a permit from the County
and go in and pave. There are on -going discussions which the City Attorney
wants Council to be aware of and any further developments will be
brought to the Council's attention.
V/M Disraelly asked if the Attorney was referring to the full width
of the road or half the width of the road. Mr. Birken said that there
are two lanes in now and they want to put in another twc lanes for
about 3001. C/W Massaro said this Council should go on record, for
Mr. Birken's information, that they will oppose that road being opened
up. If necessary, C/W Massaro said, Mr. Birken should defend this
decision even if he has to go to court. This is why Council should go
on record on this, so Mr. Birken will be free to go to court and move
along on this. C/W Plassaro said that if this were an item on the agenda,
the Chambers would be full of people.
The City Attorney said he did not think any action should be taken today,
if things get worse he will notify the Council. Mayor Falck said he
had a call yesterday from a representative of Mr. Sadkin and he was
told by the County that the County owned the right-of-way. V/M Disraelly
asked who owns -the piece of land atjthe east half of the right-of-way.
Mr. Birken said the property from Commercial Blvd. south for approximately
300' is dedicated on plat to the public. South of that point, the
City has a warranty deed made out to the City of Tamarac." Broward County
is not involved in any way, shape or form for at least 35' and there
is no way in the world that the County can issue a permit for that. They
are only talking now about the 300' from Commercial Blvd. to the south.
It will be necessary for discussion from the City and County staff.
As Council recalls, last year Mr. Birken sent out a number of memos
stating that one option that existed was a possible vacation. At that
time, one member of Council was desirous of taking that step and that
option still exists and it is something that may need to be explored.
Mayor Falck said these points are well taken and if a special meeting
is needed, the City Attorney should advise the Council and it will be
done.

a) Attorney Birken read Resolution 42119 by title.
Mr, Ray Baade, Chairman of the Beautification Committee addressed
Council,. Ile said there are requests for three different waivers:
the first waiver is requesting authorization to erect signs on the
facia of the University Drive side of the 5800 complex which will
he known as Mainland Center, He showed a Polaroid picture of the front.
of the building, which is a bit unusual, the facia being only 8"
in height. The sign ordinance does not allow a sign to extend
beyond the top of the 'facia but in this case, there is no other
place to display a box sign and the waiver request is a bit un»siia,l.
in that they request the authority to erect box signs for 175' across
the entire front of the University Dr. section. These will be blank
faces with the applications to be submitted at a later date and he
suggested this be made a condition of the Council approval of the
waivers that individual tenants will subt-tit individual applications
for the sign copy to be placed on each one of these panels. V/M
Disraelly M.OV7D the APPROVAL of Temp. Reso. #2119 permitting the sign
waiver for the wall sign on the facia of the building with the
condition that each individual tenant will have to make application
for his own verbiage to be placed on the sign which will extend across
the entire front of the building, with the approval of the Bldg. Dept.
for structural design, SECONDED by C/M Zemel.
b) Attorney Birken read Resolution #2118 by title.

V/M Disraelly said in this particular case, the roof design is not
there, it will be on the flat side of the building. Although there
is no street front, because it faces the canals, the only method of
identification would be a waiver to permit a sign where there is no
street front but there is entry through the parking lot.
V/M Disraelly MOVED that Temp. Reso. #2117 be APPROVED permitting a
wall sign on the north side of the building although there is no

2. Welcoming Committee - Discussion and Possible Action on:
a) Re-establishing this committee by Temp.Ord. ##'939. First
Reading.
b) Announcement of twelve (12) regular ,terms to expire 12/10/81.
c) Acknowledgment of donation of $250.00 received from Summit
Bank for the.activities of this committee.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION:. Items a) b) and
c) tabled to second January Meeting.
Committee appointed to analyze input
and come back with recommendations
to Council by 1/27/82.
C/M Kravitz felt this committee should continue and was an asset
to the City. He praised the work the committee has done and
hoped Council would not try to run on any political basis and
therefore on that basis stop this committee. It is Council's
prerogative to decide whether it should or should not be continued.
C/M Kravitz said that at .the last Council meeting the Vice Mayor
requested the,minutes of previous committee meetings which he was
only too happy to submit to Council to fill that request. He also
said he was ready to answer any questions as to,what the committee
is doing, what it has accomplished, what the purposes are and what
progress has been made. He has heard nothing but plaudits on this
committee and MOVED to re-establish the Welcoming Committee at
this time and C/M Zemel SECONDED the Motion.
Mayor Falck asked C/M Kravitz what he meant by political or non-
political. C/M Kravitz replied that since he has been on Council
during the past 8 months at no time has he ever seen that members
who have not asked any questions, that have not known what is
going on, and all of a sudden there is a group that says: "We
don't want this or we don't want that" without any reason. His
personal conclusion is that it can only be political and if he
is wrong he will know after this meeting.
Mayor Falck asked C/M Kravitz that what he was saying then is
if Council does not approve then it is oneway politically and
if they should it is another way. C/M Kravitz clarified further
by saying that if Council has a question'or if Council feels there
is something wrong and brings it up and is of the opinion that is
the way they want to go then that is their prerogative. But if
there are no questions and there are no problems and just vote
for the idea one way, then that is his opinion.
V/M Disraelly said he was taken back at the political implication
and does not understand what is political. There has been nothing
political done by any of this Council so far -as any committees
are concerned that he knows of. If it is wrong, he said, to ask
for what proceedings have taken place at the committee meetings,
then he was notaware that this becomes political.. It was just
an interest of what is happening and how the committee conducts
itself and that was the pure purpose in asking for the minutes.
C/M Kravitz stated -that he concurred with the Vice Mayor whole-
heartedly when any member of Council wants any information, but,
if there are no items that they feel is being done incorrectly
or not according to their wishes or their understandings and
nothing is said,,then he has a different' idea. He said he was
not saying that Council doesn't have the right to ask
for any information so they can make up their own mind.
C/W Massaro said that after hearing a statement like that could
cause her to take on a negative attitude and felt it was insulting
to even suggest it and beyond any further discussion.

Lee Rappaport, Chairman of Welcoming Committee, stated the
committee has worked ardently to fulfill their obligation
and to create a situation of warmth and welcome to the
community. He said there is much work to be done and will
continue to serve the community in the sense that the inte-
gration of the community itself, the citizens, with the
governing body is a unique and outstanding venture. He asked
Council to consider to continue the committee.
Sidney Bass, Chairman of the Public Information Committee,
said the City has 60 welcoming committees where the function
of the leaders of the various subdivisionsin the City make
it their business to welcome newcomers to the community.
Brochures, maps of Tamarac and all the City services that
are available are given*to the newcomers, which is the major
function of the Public Information Committee and felt there
is no reason why there has to be an official Welcoming Committee.
The Public Information Committee is well equipped and competent to
serve the purpose of welcoming people to the City of Tamarac and
to our City Hall.
C/M zemel praised the Public Information Committee for the
tremendous work they are doing. He said the Welcomina Committee
is the crowning touch, the final glory to what has been done and
the opportunity of the citizens to touch and shake the hand of
the Mayor and Council and ask particular personal questions of
their legislators at that time.
Muriel Davis, member of Charter Board, said there could be a more
productive way to welcome new residents to the City and initiate
them to the operation of the government than through a Welcoming
Committee. In her opinion this was the function of the Public
Information Committee. She said that it was her. understanding
that only 20 people are invited to these monthly meetings,which
at the end of the year comes to 250 people for the entire City
who receive this crowning welcome. She felt this was a waste
of money and did not feel the budget should continue to expend
the taxpayers money towards these monthly lunches. Ms. Davis
suggested that there be less frequent meetings but make them
with a larger number of people in attendance, show them the
workings of the government, have less disruption of the admin-
istrative staff and less crowding in the halls. She strongly
opposed the Welcoming Committee. C/M Kravitz indicated to
Ms. Davis that the budget for the Welcoming Committee for the
entire year was $200.00 and is not a large expenditure of the
citizens' money.
Morton Student, resident of Tamarac, said as a member of the
Public Information Committee a few years ago he can appreciate
the good work that is being done by this committee, but once
the initial welcoming is done the people end up destroying the
pamphlets and never come down to City Hall to see what is actually
going on; 60 - 70% of the people do not know what the City of
Tamarac is all about and how it is run.. He praised the Chamber
of Commerce for all their good works but indicated that the
Welcoming Committee personally invites.the new residents and
this idea is starting to spread to other municipalities. Mayor
Falck asked Mr. Student who were the other municipalities he
mentioned, to which he replied, Coral Springs, Lauderhill and
Sunrise.
Pat Grillo, Chamber of Commerce, urged the consideration of
the City to continue this program. She said the response by
the residents has been overwhelming. This should be a City
project and the Chamber would still be interested in partici-
pating in it. Ms. Grillo stated that it is the first time
that she knows of people that have had the opportunity (new
residents) to come into the City and see how it operates and
thought it an excellent idea.
C/W Massaro said she thought it
to take over because that is who
mittee in other cities. Some of
an excellent idea for the Chamber
does handle the Welcoming Com-
the new people who attended

today's welcoming felt it was not a City function but was a
Chambers function. Pat Grillo said the Chamber mould not be
as effective at taking this on and the purpose is to introduce
the new residents to the City of Tamarac..
Irving Epstein, Charter Board Member, urged the Mayor and the
Council to put an end to the animosity which was present at
today's meeting. TAPE INAUDIBLE
Mitchell Katzman, member on Welcoming Committee, said he contacted
100 residents and have had 55 resident's actually attend the last
three sessions. In calling these residents he was able to get
first hand reaction and said these residents were overwhelmed,
surprised flattered and thankful of the opportunity they
had to meet Council and see the various other activities going
on in City Hall:. The good will that was created was unimaginable.
Vice Mayor Disraelly inquired of Mr. Katzman how a citizen who
lived here over.a year gets invited. Mr. Katzman explained the
committee gets.their list from Tamarac Utilities; some have phone
numbers others don't. He said when he calls a new resident they
ask if they could bring another person along. It is quite possible
among this group you might have had.somebody'who is an old resident.
He explained the list he receives is only of new residents.
Various people have called in, he said, and he has received lists
of residents to be invited from C/M Kravitz and various secretaries.
Vice Mayor Disraelly asked Mr. Katzman how he would get a list of
someone living in a condominium, to which he replied, he could not and
that is one of the problems. Mr. Katzman stated he has contacted
Concord Condominiums and received names of 60 new residents and
was difficult to approach everybody.
C/M Kravitz said the committee is not adverse to making changes
and if Council has a recommendation in the way of securing
residents, they are not adverse to that. He said he had a
signed letter by the new residents of what they thought of today's
meeting and was nothing but praise for the City.
Marge Kelch, resident of Tamarac, indicated that there has been
tremendous turn over in Mainlands #1 and 42 such as resales plus
all the new comers coming in and could not imagine that the City
would limit the invitations to 240 people. She suggested having
2 or 3 large receptions and invite everyone who has moved into
the City within a certain designated period to come to see our
facility and meet the people that are here, but especially not on a
Council day .
TAPE Harold Newman, President of Westwood #23 Association, said there
#6 were 5 new homeowners in the last 6 months, none of whom have
been invited by the Welcoming Committee. Mr. Katzman stated
that any resident that has come into the City within the last
6 months has been contacted or called.
Herman Marini resident of Lime Bay, said .we should take the new
people by the hand to come to City Hall, welcome them and encourage
them to grow with,the City.
Mayor.Falck suggested a motion to cover the various
possibilities that have been advanced here to include relationships
with the Public Information Committee, expansion by open house, etc.,
Vice Mayor Disraelly suggested
this item be tabled or another type of motion be made because based
on the input it is a good function to welcome these people but.the
method in which it is being done is improper. He thought the
suggestion of inviting everybody on anon -council day and arranging
for Council and members. of the various committees including all
the Department Heads for 100 people at a time,also in conjunction.
with the Chambers,as well as with the Public information Committee,
was a good idea. He recommended to table this motion and create
before the next council meeting a new motion and new procedure
for the handling of it, based on the.input that has been given.

Councilman Kravitz pointed out the committee expires as of
tomorrow, therefore, if the committee is not voted on today
there is no Welcoming Committee. Mr. Birken said legally
that is correct. C/M Kravitz said if there is no committee
he could not see how this committee can continue to function.
If it is the will of Council to.make certain changes within
the committee then he could see that we should have the
committee and then make recommendations to the committee,
but without a committee we cannot discuss changes or any
other way of doing things.
C/W Massaro asked the Mayor if he. wanted Council to come in
with new thoughts for the next regular meeting and make a
decision as to what way the Council wants to go,whether it
be to expand this committee, new procedures, etc.
V/M Disraelly explained that Council has an ordinance that is
up for first reading. If Council denies this ordinance and
then passes a resolution or motion asking for the.Committee members to
give Council the input that has been generated from the meeting,
whether or not Council accepts it, Council can then create whatever
ordinance or resolution is needed at that time. If Council votes
to deny this ordinance then Council could ask by motion some
additional action.
C/M Zemel said he is asking that an amendment to the motion be made to
remove the approval of Temp.Ord.#939 on first reading with instructions
to the present committee to come back with recommendations following
the information that they gathered today and bring it back to
Council at the second January meeting.
V/M Disraelly said he objected to the amendment because this
ordinance specifies four (4) functions and responsibilities
and those four (4) functions and responsibilities may be totally
different.
C/M Zemel said part of the amendment he is suggesting would also
include excluding the duties of the committee and stopping at
Section 2 at the word "living" leaving it wide open so that can
be filled in at a future date. Mayor Falck stated he would like
to see the present committee be expanded to include some other
people who have been here and who have made some observations.
Vice Mayor Disraelly explained the motion right now is to adopt
Temp. Ord. #939 as it stood with no compromises. C/M Zemel said
he offered an amendment . The amendment, if the maker would
accept it, would be to approve Temp. Ord. #939 on first reading
with instructions. V/M Disraelly said an amendment does not become
part of this motion. An amendment is voted on before the motion
itself is voted on and the amendment cannot be part of the original
motion.
Mr. Birken stated that the seconder of the MOTION is asking the
maker of the MOTION to revise the entire thing. C/M Zemel asked
the maker of the MOTION whether he would accept the amendment to
a0urove Temnorary ordinance #939 on first reading with
instructions to the committee to come back to Council at the time
of second reading with information encompassing the various facets
of information that was heard here today, for approval or dis-
approval of the Council, and further, to exclude from the proposed
ordinance sentences 1, 2, 3 and 4 of Section 2 which are the
duties of the committee and to leave that open until such time
at second reading and bring back recommendations for enlarging
the committee.
Mayor Falck indicated that he would like to see the committee
working on it now have an opportunity for input from the people
who have been here and said something about it and help frame
the ultimate recommendation that will come back. C/W Massaro

asked Mayor Falck if he was specifically referring to people
other than the committee. Mayor Falck said to take ,the present
committee and expand it to include some of the other people
that have been heard and made points that are pertinent to this.
C/W Massaro asked why couldn't this be done without this first
reading of this ordinance and questioned first reading on
something that'is completely wrong. She asked Council why
couldn't this committee meet as an Ad Hoc Committee with these
people and come back with some kind of a recommendation.
V/M Disraelly said that was his suggestion that by motion Council
create a new committee to review it and bring it back. Mayor Falck
requested Mr. Birken's recommendations. Mr. Birken said if Council
is asking whether you shoiiid have a study group to make recommenda-
tion.s,than Council would probably want to table the ordinance
until the committee comes back. He said Council could appoint
an Ad Hoc or Advisory Committee for a short duration asking for
input or Council could ask individual people to provide them with
input and then be brought back to Council.
V/M Disraelly said this is what he was trying to get done. If
this is denied then Council can create this other committee by
motion or could .table this and create the new committee and then
decide what will be done, but should not include this. C/M Kravitz
asked how could people be appointed to a committee when you don't
have a committee. V/M Disraelly said by motion Council can create
any committee; specifically,an Ad Hoc Committee just for the purpose
of bringing back recommendations on how the Welcoming Committee
should operate.
C/M Zeme1 MOVED to table Temp. Ordinance #939 until second regular
January meeting and C/W Massaro SECONDED the Motion.
VOTE: ALL VOTED AYE.
V/M Disraelly MOVED that the present members of the Welcoming
Committee plus Marjorie Kelch, Muriel Davis, Sidney Bass and
Irving Epstein be appointed to an Ad Hoc Committee for the purpose
of digesting the input that has been presented to the Council
at this particular meeting and come back with recommendations
to the Council by the second January meeting with suggestions
as to how this should be handled for the residents of the City.
C/W Massaro SECONDED the Motion.

cussion and Possible Action on a request to amend the Land Use
Element of the Tamarac Comprehensive Plan, in order to increase
the density from 100 units to a maximum of 200 units, by trans-
ferring 100 existing reserve units allocated to Flexibility
Zone 60 and changing the land use from Low Density (0-5 dwelling
units per acre) Residential. The subject lands are described
as Parcel A of Mainlands 15, and are bounded on the east by the
eastern boundary of the City, on the west and south by Vanguard
Village Section 15. North property line lies approximately
270 feet south of McNab Rd. First Rea(ling.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: a) Accepted
b) Tabled to 1/13/82.
City Attorney read Temp. Ordinance 4930 by title.
Julian Bryan, representing.the petitioner, reviewed the items
the petitioner is'intending.to do. The first being the deed would
be restricted to adults only, the minimum age being 18. A waterway
would be provided along the west property line in addition to Vanguard
-23- 12/9/81
cb/
Village. The entire property would be restricted to no more
than 2 stories in height and an area delineated on the surveyor's
exhibit adjacent to waterway, some 80' in depth, would be
restricted to no more than 1 story in height. On the south
property line the developer will provide.a 60' buffer that will
not allow the construction of any buildings along the entire
south property line. In the southwest corner recreational
facilities will he provided for the residents. Mr. Bryan said
the developer has agreed to provide a maintenance agreement and
maintenance easement along the north property line and west
property line adjacent to the waterway such that the maintenance
responsibility of that grass -sloped area would be borne by the
Homeowner's Association. An additional request that must be
added to this reserve unit agreement by Mr. Birken's office,
is that Shell Oil Company or its assigns will cause these
Australian Pines to be removed from behind these 6 homes,
Mr. Bryan said. He suggested to Mr. Birken that he draft
language for a one -page release document that will allow Shell
or whomever they designate to come on the property to do this.
C/W Massaro inquired of Mr. Bryan if in the removal of the
Australian Pines.whether Shell will resod the banks and if
any sprinkler systems are broken they would be repaired at
the same time. Mr. Bryan said that was not a part of the
original agreement and there is no way of knowing what kind
of sprinkler system might be under ground. C/W Massaro asked
Mr. Bryan who would be replacing broken sprinkler lines, to
which he replied, that would be the responsibility of the homeowner.
Mr. Bryan said that area where the tree root'is pulled out will
be back filled and graded down to the waters edge and resodded.
Mr. Birken suggested that Shell Oil draft a release that will be
acceptable to them and might be quicker for them to prepare
their awn release. Mr. Bryan said it would take less time, to.
send a document there and back, if the City Attorney and he composed
this together.
V/M llisraelly asked Mr. Bryan when he addressed the open area,
,-"ecreation area, aid he indicate any fee. Mr. Bryan said since
this will remain as a private open space and recreation area it
will require the payment of the appropriate fee to the City and
that amount is approximately $99,000.00.
Julian Eryan said he was advised there is a remaining question about
the amount of fee to be paid for the reserve units. The $100,000 that
has been recited in the ordinance, a check which he had, is in the
minds of a number of people on Council, adequate and they have used
the example other parcels that are desireous of transferring units
within the Citv that ara navi.ncr larapr
figures. The others, he said, are subject to different regulations,
locations and different questions of access and believes that as
the City ordinance was prepared it contemplated that there is the
flexibility of charging a .fee as is appropriate for a particular
piece of property and should not be a set number. He respectfully
requested that this be considered at the figure that Council has
before them. He said if there is some additional fee, it would
be very proper and appropriate that that could be paid with
Certificate of Occupancy,, when a developer actually had unit
sales and in a position to know how his sales would go.
Mayor Falck opened the hearing to the public. .
TAPE Saul Mesinger resident of Vanguard Village, pointed out this
#7 parcel is zoned for 100 units and economically speaking these
100 units,arean arbitrary value of $22,000 each for homesites,
has a market value of $2,200,000; 200 units will be worth $4,400,000.
Mr. Mesinger said this was not a wild figure but an immediate net
profit of over $2,000,000. He wanted Council to be aware of the
ramifications of what it does when awarding additional units. There
is a tremendous economic factor involved. Mr. Mesinger said he
didn't think the developer would object to replacing a 3" line
across the back of that property and thought that as far as the
homeowner is concerned to repair a 3" main could be taken out of
the $2,200,000 profit.

Harold Newman, President of Westwood #5 Association, asked if
this development will be known as a subdivision or condominium
rule because of being 2-story. Mr. Bryan indicated that it
will be a condominium and not be subdivided into 'fee simple lot.
Mr. Newman inquired about restricting the age limit to 18 years
especially when various laws in some of the communities are
eliminating the discrimination of children. He asked if the
City could put a restriction on today. Mr. Birken said there
was a decision last year called "White Egret" and the Court
upheld age limitations and as far as he knew there has been
nothing since.
Pearl Scharf, resident of Vanguard Village, praised V/M Disraelly
and Saul Mesinger for all the diligent work they have done.
She said she was in agreement with C/W Massaro in regard to the
inconveniences and pipes ?which the 6 families would primarily
be faced with and certainly the builder should take care of it.
Mayor Falck closed the hearing to the public since there were
no further comments.
Julian. Bryan explained that this is an improved lot where you
have to build streets, and water and sewer and a 7500 sq. ft.
lot now with all your .applicable fees and permits, actually
is worth $12,000 per unit. He further asked that regarding
the sprinkler line if some language could be put in the agreement
that within a certain amount of feet the homeowners would get
reimbursed for replacement. V/M Disraelly requested Mr. Bryan
to make it 6 feet, which he in turn agreed to.
Saul Mesinqer commented that there may be utility easements
and if there is any damage, the homeowner would be held responsible.
V/M Disraelly said American Video is there and .based on the survey
which he has seen,.part of the American Video boxes are already
on the Shell property and is already encroaching. Mr. Bryan said
the developer would have to send a letter to the various utilities
asking for location of their facilities.
C/W Massaro said she has discussed with Mr. Bryan and Mr. McKav
the question about the amount of money and felt another conference
is needed and. therefore MOVED this item be tabled to first meeting
in January. V/M Disraelly asked whether the deferred payment will
be incorporated into the revised reserve unit agreement. Mr: Bryan
explained that the developer would consider.language from the City
that would allow the payment of additional monies and have certainly
not reached an agreement of what that amount is. But whatever that
amount be,that it be paid at time of Certificate of Occupancy and
be divided by the total 200 units, .Mr. Bryan said. Mr. Bryan further
stated that if that can be included in the agreement and the language
regarding the tree removal be included, then everything has been
encompassed.
V/M Disraelly MOVED.the acceptance of Affidavit of Publication,
Affidavit of Posting and Affidavit of Mailing and C/W Massaro
SECONDED the Motion.

Council released the $6,000 Cash Bond he would be able to come
up with the Warranty Bond. Mr. Holtel asked how the $3,521.75

there is no problem with parking at that location." V/M Disraelly
said he wanted to clarify once and for all that this was not
something that was being done on behalf of the association
because there is nothing in the minutes that reflect it. He
indicated that a provision has to be made by the developer
before the City releases this bond.

a) C/w Massaro made the inquiry about recreation fees. Mr. Birken
stated there is a requirement in the City ordinance requiring
dedication of land or cash payment in lieu of dedication; the
choice rests with the City. He said discussions were held with
Council and the developer to try to find some acceptable route
which everybody can live with. One obvious suggestion that
had been made was that payment of cash be made or dedication
of an acceptable piece of property. Another idea which was
discussed and has promise, he said, is for there to be payment
in part today for the money and the delivery by the developer
of an option agreement to the City. This would essentially
provide that for the piece of property that is located on
Rock Island Road, approximately la acres, that the City be
given an option to purchase that property,if an application
which would be exercised if an application for rezoning to a
business district was not granted either by the City or by the
County, which would probably have to take action on the amendment
,to the Land Use Plan which would also be needed.
Mr. Birken indicated that if the application was granted, rather
than exercising the option, the developer would promptly pay
the amount in question which would be an amount equivalent to
the 1k acres according to .the conversion language in the city's
ordinance which would be $112,000 plus interest. He thought
the option agreement is something that is achievable under the
terms of the City's ordinance and the attorneys for the
applicant have been working on language for an option agreement
which has been submitted to him. The only problem he couldsee
was the property having a mortgage on it.
City Planner , Richard Rubin, said at last week's Planning
Commission meeting the staff prepared the amount of fee that
is necessary. The amount of land required on the overall
project is 3.63 acres times $75,000/acre equals $272,250.00
Glern Smith, representing the applicant, said the developer
is the owner of an S-1 zoned parcel 13� acres and faced with
paying the City Parks & Recreation fee and at the same time
be stuck with an S-1 piece of property which cannot be made
part of theirresidential development at this stage. Because
of zoning, he said, the developer cannot use it and at the
same time have to pay full price for the Parks & Recreation
fee. Mr. Smith asked Council to enter into an agreement
which basically provides the developer the opportunity of
rezoning the S-1 piece to commercial zoning. If the rezoning
is allowed, the developer will pay the $l12,500 plus interest
at 13% from today's date. Mr. Smith stated that if it is not
rezoned, the developer will give the City the property or pay
$112,500 plus interest. He further stated that as far as the
question of encumbrance, in 10 days the developer will buy
the property free and clear or subordinate the mortgage to
-28- 12/9/81
cb/
the option with an agreement that when the developer
relays the property to the City it will be free and clear.
Mr. Birken said if Council wants to move forward today
there has been pregedence where Council has made this
type of approval;, the approval will be contingent upon
certain things happening. He indicated the developer
has great incentive to meet whatever timetable that
Council sets to make the approval become alive. C/W Massaro
asked Mr. Smith would the developer have any problems with
this and he replied he wouldn't.C/W Massaro said if the
developer didn't want to exercise this option and didn't take
it and pay the City, Council would be very hapov to have thafi.
land for a public park in that area. She said the City
certainly could use a public park.
Mr. Smith expressed an interest in doing some work for the
City, referring to $159,000, whereby fill was needed on
certain projects, which a refund of part of our fee could
be applied.
Richard Rubin 'asked the City Attorney if the 1� acres is
accepted by the City and based upon the option is transferred
to the City, the parcel is placed,as their portion of the
recreational requirements pursuant to .Chapter 20,is that
tract limited to open space purposes.
Mr. Birken stated that could be provided for in the option
and indicated the City has to'provide local parks within a
reasonable distance of the property for which payment is made.
`!.'he City would like the flexibility of selling that land
and moving the local park that would serve that site to
another location within a reasonable distance. Mr. Birken
hoped that if in fact that question comes up, the developer
would not have any objection to the City doing that, in
which Mr. Smith replied certainly not.
Richard Rubin stated the site plan consists of 40.335 acres,
534 multiple family units. The plat consists of 26.945,
therefore, there is an existing plat called the Old Sabal
Palm plat, where this developer will be placing approximately
one hundred odd homes on 13.39 acres of existing platted land.
On November 18, 1981 the Planning Commission recommended
approving this application with conditions. The Beautification
Committee has also reviewed and recommended approval with some
conditions. Mr. Rubin said the applicant has complied with
the City's and Coun.ty's development review requirements and
read the various conditions staff would like Council to include
in its motion (see attachment 1). V/M Disraelly indicated
on page 2, item e to strike the word "water" and change amount
from $1,000 to $650.
TAPE C/W Massaro inquired about the additional dedication for a
#9 right-of-way and asked if that -has been deducted from the
1k acres. Mr. Rubin said the survey did not reflect that.
C/W Massaro asked Mr. Smith about the continuous' sidewalk that
would connect with the Vanbot's Recreation Center, in which
he replied this would be done. C/W Massaro asked about the
green area on the north end of Vanbot's 'Clubhouse which is
low in grade. Mr. Smith said the arrangement by his client
is to furnish to the association $200.00, which in turn, the
association will hire their general contractor to bring fill
to proper grade and replace the sod. He said the association
will incur. the expense of the extension of the sprinkler to
cover this area. C/W Massaro asked if the developer is going
to curb all the medians. Mr. Smith said this would be done.
-29-- 12/9/81
c b/
Emil Beutner, Chairman Planning Commission, said he was
opposed to the concept plan and the site plan because
there is absolutely no unimpaired flow of vehicular traffic
both public and private throughout the roadway system and
along the ingress and egress and throughout the whole system,
not only the entrance. He also felt it was difficult to
park a car in a 25' two-way aisle. C/W Massaro asked City
Planner if he had considered Mr. Beutner's item. Mr. Rubin
said the ordinance states that every building must have
direct access to a public road. Mr. Oyler's plans certainly
show that there are driveways from the public road to every
building. Mr. Rubin stated they are not roadways, they are
just parking aisles.
Mr. Beutner said it was impossible when you go to any parking
place and want to leave the parking area and somebody is
entering you cannot get out. You will have the same condition
here. Mr. Birken said it appears that the code section is
complied with.
V/M Disraelly clarified with the developer the location of
medians, Swale area and landscaping which will be maintained.
C/W Massaro requested of the developer the exact size and
location of the meeting area in the recreation building be
shown on the final site plan. She also requested of the developer
that all headwalls at culvert crossing to be reinforced poured
concrete and shall be long enough to conform to slope require -
ments of the City code. Dan Oyler said he was in agreement
with whatever the City Engineer requirements are. C/W Massaro
pointed out that with regard to the bridges, the developer will
be required to submit bridge details for engineer's approval
and specifications to comply with South Florida Building Code
and sealed by a professional engineer.
C/W Massaro stated to the developer that all retention areas
and system are to be completed with the first phase. Council
asked the City Engineer what his thoughts were concerning
the drainage system. Larry Keating stated that originally
the developer wanted to construct approximately one-half of
the one lake. He said after considerable evaluation, in order
to obtain drainage for Phase I, the developer would need to
construct all of that lake that would be sufficient to store
a 10-year storm without flooding the roadways. C/W Massaro
reminded Council of the condition in Woodlands. Mr. Keating
said Gary Bloom suggested some sort of construction which is in
between connecting all of the lake systems and having a stagnant
pond which could be a viable solution to the problem. C/W Massaro
stated if the developer wants to create a ditch temporarily so
that there is a positive flow, they dedicate this whole area
for retention and bond it so that at some point in time even
though the developer abandons it, the money will be there to
dig it.
V/M Disraelly asked the City Engineer how much would it cost
to dig a 1� acre.lake as a retention area. Mr. Keating said
it may be around $40,000. Mr. Glem Smith said he was agreeing
TAPE to the positive outfall but did not quite understand why the
#10. entire lake has to be dug. C/W Massaro indicated it doesn't
ifthey want to bond it. Mr. Smith then agreed to provide a
bond.

REPORTS
33. City Council
Councilman Kravitz stated he would like to feel that there
is only one standard among.councii and he was referring now to
the Festival of Lights. At no time has he received any minutes
or seen where a meeting was being held. No monies have been
accepted that came into that Committee through Council and all
the gifts are not in City Hall. Up until two weeks ago he
thought he was Master of Ceremonies of that meeting. He stated
he hasn't heard anything either pro or con from the Chairman of
that Committee and felt that is not the proper way for the City
to handle any Committee where members of Council don't know
what is going on. In the future, he felt, Council should have
more input on any City Committee as to what is going on and what
is good for one Committee should be,good.for all Committees.
MEETING WAS ADJOURNED AT 6:30 P.M.
