5. Bid Award - Cypress Creek Commons - Temp. Reso. #2894 --
Discussion and possible action to award a bid for the
installation of fixed pier boat slips, docks and gangway
(tabled from 12/l/83).
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: Bids received for
boat slips, docks and gangway rejected.
Authorization given to City Manager to
pursue right to use grant funds or any
portion thereof for beautification and
paving.
City Attorney Jon Henning read the Resolution by title. City
Manager Stuurmans explained that there are two points which
Council needs to consider today. One is the fact that upon
-5- 12/14/83
/rb
reviewing the information concerning Florida Power & Light
and their interest in purchasing City property at Southgate
Boulevard, it was learned that the area running from the
canal forty feet south into Cypress Creek Commons is owned
by the South Florida Water Management District. City Manager
Stuurmans said that since this is not City property, there is
a question of whether the City wants to continue to improve it as
this would result in major maintenance costs for the future.
Mrs. Stuurmans said Council had approved the continuation of
this park improvement almost two years ago. At that time,
it was thought there was an easement owned by the City
in that area and it has since been found the City does not
own that forty feet. She said South Florida Water Management
District would be happy to give the City permission to improve
it and take future responsibility for this. However, the question
at this time is whether Council wants to continue along the
course of development of Cypress Creek Commons for the docks,
slips and marina-. Under the terms of the Agreement, the City
is presently asking for an extension and it is necessary to
let the authorities know at the earliest possible date if
the City wishes to pursue this. if Council does determine
that the City should continue to develop this property as initially
planned several years ago, it would be staff's recommendation that
the initial bids received be rejected and that this come up for
rebid when formal confirmation of the extension is received.
V/M Massaro said she does not feel the City should add to the
type of facility being planned for that area as it is not
Tamarac property. However, if grant funds could be used for
improving the area as to landscaping, paving and things of
that type, she would be highly in favor of it. But since
the residents of Tamarac are not using those facilities, and
the City is maintaining it and the residents are paying taxes
for it, she feels it would be an improper use of money to continue.
The Vice Mayor commented that the residents of Tamarac
are not asking that this be extended, but if any portion of those
funds was intended for beautification or paving, she would be
interested,
V/M Massaro pointed out that if the City had to light up that
area, the cost would be tremendous.
V/M Massaro MOVED to reject the grant. SECONDED by C/P? Krantz.
C/M Stelzer inquired whether the City has a large investment
in the project at the present time.
City Manager Stuurmans said this is not actually the case.
There was some work done with respect to bolstering up the
banks in preparation for the second phase of the grant project.
She explained that the existing structures were covered by
prior grant and that grant has been closed out and the work has been
completed.
Mrs. Stuurmans said under the prior grant, the cost to the City
was approximately $75,000.00. V/M Massaro said the next grant
would probably cost the City the same amount of money.
C/M Stelzer said that area has not been paved yet and it should
be done. However, putting in the boat docks and fishing pier,
would not be necessary. He asked whether the City could pave
the area and receive a portion of the grant funding as then
the park would be completed as far as the City of Tamarac is
concerned.
City Manager Stuurmans said she would ask the maker of the Motion
to indicate that if the grant funding could be continued with the
elimination of the boating related facilities, then staff proceed
along those lines. Shc said staff has reluctance about putting
lights in because the adjacent properties create policing problems
at night. Staff would like to pursue an extension of the grant
for beautification and paving only.

Alternate Bid #1 from Jet Vac
Sanitary Services, Inc. for a
Model Vactor #810 for. $80,680.00,
with funds to be taken from Drainage

City Attorney Jon Henning read the Resolution by title.
City Manager. Laura Stuurmans stated that Council has received
a copy of the recommendation made by Gregory Turek, Director of
Public Works, that an award be made to Jet Vac Sanitary Services,Inc.
for a Vactor 810 at a price of $80,680.00. This particular quote
is for purchase.of a new piece of equipment with trade-in of the

Mrs. Stuurmans said she is recommending that the funding for
this procurement be taken from the Drainage Improvement Fund
since the machinery will be used as part of the Ci.ty's continuous
drainage efforts.
V/M Massaro said there is a Drainage Improvement Fund and a
Drainage Retention Fund and she would like to know whether
these monies would come from only the Drainage improvement Fund,
and the City Manager said they will as there are monies
in that fund for this purpose.
V/M Massaro said a Jet Vac is one of the most important pieces
of equipment in the City and she would MOVE to accept the bid from

7. Solid waste Collection - Temp. Reso. #2951 - Discussion and
possible action to approve a third Amendment to the contract
witii Browning --Ferris Industries concerning rates for garbage
collection.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: TABLED to first
meeting in January for further research
by City Attorney.
City Attorney ,Ion Henning read the Resolution by title.
City Manager Stuurmans stated Council received a copy of a
letter she received last week from Browning Ferris Industries
which sets forth the affect to them of the increase in the
tipping charges at the County. This increase is from
$12.00 to $16.00 per ton and they are asking the City for an
increase in the monthly price on single family units from the
present rate of $4.30 to $4.68 per month, and on multi -family
from $2.05 to $2.25 per month.
City Manager Stuurmans said the Finance Director has reviewed
these rates as they apply to the existing units the City is
being billed for and the money that has been allocated in the
budget. She said she would call to Council's attention that
based upon this schedule and an application of the new rates over
the next nine months, the cost in excess of what was budgeted
is $30,000.00.
V/M Massaro . asked whether the Finance Department has determined
whether the amount requested is in proportion to the tonnage
serviced to the City and the additional amount that Browning Ferris
will have to pay.
The City Manager said the Finance Department will have to review
the information from Browning Ferris to the City as well as the formula
they used to quote the additional price but she is doubtful
Finance has tried to evaluate anything other than the information
supplied to the City by Browning Ferris.
V/M Massaro said this will not take effect until the first of the
year and she feels Finance should check this more thoroughly
as the _ increase is rather substantial, particularly since
the money is not budgeted for this purpose. She stated the Finance
Department should determine whether the amount requested is proper.
Mr. Harold Carter, representing All Service Refuse Company of Fort
Lauderdale, stated that prior to the time this went to bid about
five years ago,All Service Refuse Company was picking up the garbage
in Tamarac. He said there was some confusion on the bids
The All -Service bid gave an escalating number every year and for
the first two years,their bid was lower than the Browning Ferris bid,
The Browning Ferris bid was consistent for five years, which gave
them a windfall of profits which they were able to invest for the
later years when their price was not as high as the All Service price.
Mr. Carter said he has reviewed the Browning Ferris contract and
bid specs and both documents state they have the right to request
an increase according to the disposal. He said he nas requested
the Council minutes of a 1979 rieeting as he recalls Browning Ferris
"had made the statement that they would .stay with the rates for
the full five years and nothing could happen that would make them
change their rates.
Mr. Carter stated the last time Browning Ferris requested a rate
increase, it went from $9.00 to $12.00 per ton ,which was. $3.00
per ton of increase and they requested and had approved 25 cents.
This would be 8--1/3 cents per dollar of increase. At this time,
the increase requested is from $12.00 to $16.00, which would be
33-1/3 cents.
Mr. Carter said as -soon as he has reviewed the minutes of June 1979,
he will provide that, information to Council.
V/M Massaro said she feels the increase does not seem to balance
with the prior increase. Not only is the percentage off, but
the business has increased and the percentage should
have dropped and not increased. She feels this needs careful
scrutiny.

Mayor Falck said he would suggest the City Attorney review
the minutes mentioned as his recollection of.that meeting is
a little different than Mr. Carter's recollection.
V/M Massaro MOVED to table this item to the first meeting in January.
City Manager Stuurmans said that regardless of the Council
action today, there will have to be some formal written commitment
between the parties to amend the existing contract. She said
she would not expect any effective price increase until March
as there is a three month holdback.
The Motion was SECONDED by C/M Krantz.
Mrs. Vickie Beech, resident, said she would like to know what
has happened concerning the collection of newspapers and why
it has not continued as it was years ago. She said this is
actually a large part of the garbage today.
City Manager Stuurmans explained.that the collecting services are
very small businesses; and getting a collector to stay with the
City is just impossible. She said several different groups
were tried but it did not work out. The newspapers would sit
at the curbside for a day or two and the people had to call
the City, after which the City had to send Public Works over to
pick up the papers, and that was very difficult. Mrs. Stuurmans
said the City does have"a couple of collectors that are somewhat
moderately successful. Those who collect at the condominiums
are succeeding but the curbside collection just never worked out,
probably because in Tamarac there would have been volume and the
number of private.collectors available to do it was very small.
She said C/M Stelzer has expressed an interest in developing a
City program and he and the Public Works Director are scheduled
to be talking about this within the next month, as Mr. Turek
needs the time to go into Public Works and get some of the major
concerns stabilized and under control, before an innovative program
is looked into. The City Manager said both C/M Stelzer and
Mr. Turek are anxious for the City to perhaps take this on in
the coming year.
Mrs. Beech said she remembers the first couple of years when
a gentleman came in with a truck and there was no problem
in picking up the newspapers. However, when the contractor was
changed to Browning Ferris, there was a problem with the collection.
Mrs. Beech said she feels this is a very expensive form of garbage
collection because newspapers and magazines that accumulate could
be used in recyoling,which would help the City make up some of
this money.
V/M Massaro said Browning -Ferris never had anything to do with
collecting newspapers.
City Manager Stuurmans said this was done by private individuals.
There was a marine group in here as well as MGM Recycling, which is
a father and son operation and they did it for about a year, but
they had equipment breakdowns and other problems.
C/M Krantz said the City just cannot find a contractor who wants
to do the job.
Mayor Falck said he is impressed with the method used
by Boca Raton. They have their own pickup service. He said as
recently as this Monday, there was a discussion at the Northwest
Broward Council on this entire matter. Tt had started last year with a
$3.00 increase by the County,another $3.00 increase this year and a
$3.00 increase planned for next year and it will not be too long
before the City is paying $25.00 per ton whereas when this contract
was originally executed it was somewhere around $8.00 or $9.00 per ton.
The Mayor said the Solid Waste Program will be discussed by the
Board of Directors of the Broward League prior to tomorrow evening's
general meeting. He said this is a serious problem from the
9- 12/14/83
/rb
standpoint of finances as well as the availability of manpower
to collect and properly handle this.He said there does not seem
to be a problem in the East section because there is one
individual who picks up in that area, but most of it reverts to
the Church off Prospect Road. There is a big deposit vehicle
there and the people gather their own newspapers and take them
over there. Mayor Falck said he would hope that during the
coming year, this will be a priority item and it might very
well be that the City will have to expend its force for that
purpose. , Fie said he is not as much concerned with the :.increased
rate as he is with the fact that next year the City will receive
another increase in rates, as well as the following year.: The
Mayor said he feels the City should plan in advance to handle
this matter before further increases are received.
City Manager Stuurmans said even with the small effort taken with
private individuals, the City has learned that the recycling
proceeds are minimal but the benefit in terms of a reduction in
tonnage in garbage collection costs is considerable.
C/M Stelzer said he will work with Greg Turek in an attempt
to work out a City collection program and expects to be able to
report to Council on this shortly.

at the park for a number of years and it was not realized the trailer
would be needed for this long a period of time. However, until the
new building is completed, the City will have a problem if this
trailer is removed. The Vice Mayor said Mr. Petrozella has talked
about this over the past year as he felt it was unfair for him to
pay occupational license fees of $202.50 a year when he is permitting
the City to use the trailer and not compensate him for it. She said she
would MOVE at this time to approve the payment of $202.50 per year

year, that the money be credited toward the money he owes for occu-

LEGAL AFFAIRS
12. Candidate for Office of Mayor and Councilmembers - Temp.
Ord. #1079 - Discussion and possible action to amend Ordinance
76-33 by removing the requirement for filing of nominating
petitions by candidates. First Reading.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED as
Amended on First Reading, to become
effective upon passage at Second
Reading.
City Attorney Jon Henning read the Ordinance by title and explained
that one of the proposed Charter amendments is in connection with
the adoption of the Florida State election laws. He said at the
hearing Council recently held to discuss those proposed amendments,
it was brought out that the primary purpose for addressing that
Charter amendment was the concern for the petition requirements
for Mayor and City Councilmembers. This was established by
Ordinance, and there was a question about the Ordinance.
Mr. Henning stated that at the Council's direction, he prepared
this Ordinance, which he believes is satisfactory to.the. Charter
Board. He said this Ordinance repeals the old Ordinance #76-33,
and it eliminates the petition requirements for Mayor and Council -
members. It also reaffirms without change, the filing fee of $25.00
for Mayor and $10.00 for all other elected officials, which would
be Council and Charter Board members.
- „
The City Attorney said that if the
Charter Amendment is adopted, the fee would be increased
for some of the elected officials. However,under this Ordinance,it will
remain at $25.00 and $10.00. In addition, it will be codified
and one of the ways in which it is codified is by creating
a new section in the Code in Chapter 2-3.1 with the under-
lined language. He said he has made a note on the second
page for Council, which is not a typographical error. There
are two of the Section 6 and Council needs to determine the
effective date of this Ordinance and strike one Section 6.
If the Charter Amendment goes through, it would not take effect
on this election but would take effect after the election by
means of the referendum, in which case the effect would be as
indicated in the second Section 6. He said he selected February 1
as a somewhat reasonable or arbitrary date.
The first Section 6 would make this effective
immediately after the Second Reading, which would be some time
Very early in January and would have an effect upon this election
and there would be no petitions required for the Council.
Mr. Henning said this is a choice Council needs tomake.
C/M Stelzer stated that when this Amendment was brought before
Council by the Charter Board, he was very much against it being
on the ballot. He said if an individual who wants to be a
candidate could not get one hundred names on a petitition,,
he is not worthy of getting the job,
because if one hundred citizens would not sign the petition,
the.. individual might not get even that many votes.
C/M Stelzer said he is still against this as he feels just
because an individual pays a nominal fee, they should not have
the right to become a candidate and degrade other candidates
to the newspapers. C/M Stelzer said Council should insist upon
the candidates obtaining the one hundred, signatures as he believes
that was the intent when this Ordinance was originally put through.
He feels the Ordinance should stay the same as it was.
Tape
3 V/M Massaro said Council indicated to the Charter Board at the
meeting that the Ordinance would be codified and it would
include this provision. She said it is her feeling that anyone
could obtain one hundred signatures and she feels this is
unnecessary and is just a nuisance.
V/M Massaro said she feels the second Section 6 should be used,
which reads, "This Ordinance shall become effective February 1,1984"
if this meets with the Chairman of the Charter Board. She said
she does not think this should affect the coming election.
Mr. Sydney Stein, Chairman of the Charter Board, stated that
the Charter Board discussed this with the City Attorney and
the feeling was that since the provision is going to be revoked,
it should be done now, so it will be effective for this election.
He said the Charter Board feels that if the provision is unfair,
it should be removed. He said it is a little demeaning for
an individual to go around for one hundred signatures. If it
were for one thousand signatures, it would be different.
Mr. Stein said the Charter Board feels this should include the
coming election.
V/M Massaro said she feels C/M Stelzer is concerned because
some individuals have already been exposed to the, requirement
of obtaining the one hundred signatures and he feels that
future candidates should also meet thst requirement.
C/M Stelzer said the original Charter Amendment as presented
by the Charter Board, would not affect this election;
and he is wondering why this should now be changed. He said
he would like to see the people obtain petitions, even if it is
only one hundred names.
-12- 12/14/83

V/M Massaro said she does not go along with that and would MOVE
that the first Section 6 be eliminated and the Ordinance become
effective in February, which would affect the next election.
SECONDED by C/M Krantz.
Mrs. Melanie Reynolds of the Charter Board said this was originally
proposed as in 1976 the Charter was changed without referendum. In
1978 or 1979, in order to make it legal, the word "municipal" was
added to the Charter. When this matter was recently discussed
by the Charter Board and the Council, the intent was to remove the
word "muncipal" and by doing that, the requirement for the
signatures would also be removed. Mrs. Reynolds said that since
Ordinance #76-88 which is part of Ordinance #76-33 has never been
codified, the important thing is to codify them.
The City Attorney stated this subject was discussed between the
Charter Board and the City Council, at which time the word
"municipal" was not made a part of the ballot question. However,
that word was part of the Ordinance which placed the question on
the ballot. It was also a part of the proposed language in the
backup and the proposal that went with the ballot question.
Mr. Henning said he assumes Mrs. Reynolds felt the word "municipal"
was illegally added to the Charter since the actual ballot question
did not contain that word.
Mrs. Reynolds said she would add that Ordinance #76-33 changed
the Charter without referendum.
Mr. Sydney Stein said because of the objection raised by Mrs. Reynolds
as well as the consensus of the. Charter Board, he would ask that
Council adopt this Ordinance immediately since there is a question
of legality. The Ordinance should also be codified to make it
effective immediately.
Mayor Falck said he would agree with Mr. Stein.
V/M Massaro said she would withdraw her MOTION and reverse it to
APPROVE the Ordinance as Amended on First Reading, deleting the
second Section 6 which states, "That this Ordinance shall become
effective February 1, 1984". This would approve Temp. Ord. #1079.

14. Canal Banks - Temp. Ord. #1080 - Discussion and possible action
to amend Section 24-34 of the Code pertaining to canal bank
sodding bonds and inspections. First Reading.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED as
Amended on First Reading.
City Attorney Jon Henning read the Ordinance by title. Ile explained
that V/M Massaro had requested a few changes be made to this Ordinance
and he distributed copies of the changes to Council.
Mr. Henning said Mr. Sam Stevens, the Building Official, brought to
Council's attention that canal banks, slopes and seawalls must be
graded,as the Code indicates the requirement for sod to be placed
on banks before homes are built or before certain roofs are put on
commercial establishments. There is an exception in connection
with model sales of five units or less.
The City Attorney said what happens is that sod is put on and
then the trucks continue the construction of the building which
kills the grass and it must be put on again. Sometimes the grade
is also destroyed and the City might not have to make an inspection
after the sod is down, and the end result is not what the City
wants to establish. Ile said this involves an extra expense to the
builders as well. Therefore, it had been suggested that this
-13-- 12/14/83
/rb
provision be removed, as indicated in Mr. Stevens' memorandum.
After Council discussed the matter, Mr. Henning said he was
directed to provide an exception to this with a cash bond to
allow the construction to be completed and the canal slope and
hank to be inspected. The sod should be on the premises and
ready to be installed at the time of inspection.. Immediately
after the inspection, the sod is to be put down so there is
no additional truck traffic or rainfall to erode or detract
from the slope.
Mr. Henning said he has proposed this Ordinance for First Reading
today and the new language states there is to be an inspection
and that the sod is to be installed without delay.
V/M Massaro said there is to be a record in writing and
Mr. Henning said there must be a written approval and an
installation of sod within twenty-four hours or there will
have to be a reinspection. The Ordinance provides for a.
letter of credit or cash as may be..approved by the City Council
or its designee. Mr. Henning explained that if the Council
would decide to establish some guidelines by Resolution and
designate the City Manager,, Building Official, or someone else,
to approve these bonds, this could be done at a future date.
Otherwise, it would come to Council until otherwise directed.
V/M Massaro said the language was changed to require a written
approval of the inspection. She said she recently went to
see several projects and found in one instance that the sod
was down but when she stepped off the sidewalk her foot sank
in about eight inches since the grading was not done properly.
The Vice Mayor said in another instance, she was at a project
the day after a heavy rain and she was checking to find out
how the drainage was functioning and was shocked to find that the
rain had created crevices as much as one foot deep in the
area that was already graded and ready for sod.
V/M Massaro said she has requested the Ordinance state that if
sod is not installed within twenty-four hours, a reinspection
will be required. She said if such reinspection is necessary,
a reinspection fee would have to be paid. Therefore, as
"_r. Henning has indicated, the sod must be on the premises
when an inspection is called for by the City. This is a similar
situation to the one where a concrete inspection is called for.
At that time, the truck is on the premises and ready to do the work.
She said she would point out that if the sod is permitted to
stand and the work is not done right away, there could be a
serious problem if it rains that night.
C/M Stelzer said a good example of the situation described by
V/M Massaro is that when the City started to clean the canals
a beautiful job was done at Sabal Palm where the banks are
symmetrical and nicely packed. However, sod was, never put down
and the heavy rains washed in and badly pitted the area.
and all the work put into it was just wasted.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: TABLED to

City Manager regarding guaranteed
revenues due.
City Attorney Jon Henning read the Resolution by title.
C/M Kravitz said the guaranteed revenues were never billed
and in addition, the Agreement was never signed by the City.
He said payment was due on January 6, 1983 for six meters.
V/M Massaro stated this should be brought to the attention of
the City Manager to determine whether these items should be
billed as if they were not, she would like to know why.
The Vice Mayor said the Agreement was probably signed by Woodmont
and the City could sign it now, but it is a bona fide Agreement
and the City does not want to do anything that might jeopardize it.
V/M Massaro said she has spoken to Mr. Epple this morning regarding
the performance bond and he stated that he was informed by

26. W_oodview Tract 38 - Model Sales Facility - Discussion and
possible action to renew a model sales permit.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: TABLED to
1/11/84 meeting because of
arrears relating to Water and
Sewer Agreement.
V/M Massaro said Mr. Grossman is out of the State and could not
be reached. She said she feels Council should take no action
on this item until the next regular meeting and perhaps Mr.
Grossman will return by then. He was at City Hall at one time
and spoke to Mr. Henning, who had suggested phasing the
project. Mr. Grossman said he would not care to do that, but
he did not pay the fees.
C/M Kravitz said as of August 8, 1983, there was $122,782.50 due.
The interest on that is $936.52. There is also guaranteed revenue due
up to December 8, 1983, in the amount of $1,074.15.
V/M Massaro stated that the amounts C/M Kravitz mentioned for
the interest and the guaranteed revenues, are not significant;
and this indicates they have been paying on those portions. The con-
tributions -in -aid -of- construction have not been paid as no
doubt he has -not made any sales and is unable to make the payments.
V/M Massaro said those developers who have phased their projects
do not pay contributions -in -aid -of -construction until such time
as they take their permits; and this has afforded some relief
to those who had problems.
V/M Massaro said she sees no alternative but to table this item
and as soon as Mr. Grossman returns, he should be spoken to.
City Attorney Henning said the permit expires on January 11, 1984
and it would be appropriate to table the item to the next meeting.
Mayor Falck commented that phasing was set up as an opportunity
for the developers to work out a serious problem. Therefore,
if Mr. Grossman is not willing to phase the project, the City
would have no other recourse but to inform him that he must
make the payments when they are due.
V/M Massaro said Mr. Grossman had stated he wanted to stay with the
Agreement, and he hoped to be able to make the payments. Possibly
he is trying to refinance the project but the City will not know
until he returns. At the time Mr. Grossman started his project,
there was a moratorium because of a problem with the utilities
and he wanted to be sure nothing like that could possibly happen
to him. He was assured that this would not happen, but certainly
Mr. Henning was not in a position to give him a written guarantee..
_1r,_ 12/14/83
V/M Massaro said after Mr. Grossman discussed this matter
with the individuals of his choice, he returned to City
Hall and stated he wanted to try to live with the Agreement.
Mayor Falck said it would be appropriate for Council to table
this item to the January 11, 1984 meeting and by that time
the City can accomplish whatever needs to be done so that
action can be taken.

C/M Stelzer said that the amount of $319.20 has been paid.
V/M Massaro explained that the check for $319.20 was in Finance
and somehow was not accounted for. As for the $64.05, they thought
it has been paid and will recheck their records to determine
whether or not payment was made. She said she feels the 'City
should not be concerned with this and would recommend the renewal of th
model sales permit in connection with Site Plans 1 and 3.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: Agendized by Consent
on Page 1.Action rescinded relating
to bacxfilling lot #10 prior to
obtaining building permit,and building
permit is to be released for lot #10.
Certificate of Occupancy not to be issued
until completion of all work and no permit
is to be issued for lot #11 until that work
is completed. An endorsement and a hold
harmless will be provided.
V/M Massaro stated that on November 9, 1983, Council took action
to the effect that Green Kroll will not be required to excavate
lots 12 through 20 of their project and that they pay the retention
fees in lieu of this due to the hardship imposed upon them. They
were not aware of this problem as the excavation had been done by
the Montwood Corporation and work had already been started in that
area.
V/M Massaro further explained that Green Kroll was directed
to backfill lots 9, 10 and 11 to the property line and create
a slope on the property itself. There is a house already under
construction on lot #9. Meanwhile, Montwood Corporation had
hired Keith & Schnars to determine who is responsible for
the overexcavation. Their studies have now been completed,
and Montwood Corporation is: going to do the backfilling of
lots #9, #10 and #11. Mr. Krasne has a customer for lot #10 and
he is afraid that unless Council takes action today, he will
lose the customer.
V/M Massaro said she would suggest that Council alter the
requirements imposed upon Green Kroll. It had been required
that no Certificate of Occupancy will be issued for lot #9,
which is the house under construction, until the required backfilling
is completed. The Vice Mayor said she would recommend this require-
ment be in effect. There was also a requirement that building
permits will not be issued for any of the remaining lots under
discussion, until canals are properly constructed for lots #10
and #11 as well. She suggested that Council release lot #10

from that requirement but no Certificate of Occupancy is to be
issued on this, lot until the work is completed and no permit be
issued under any condition for lot #11 until that work has
been completed. An endorsement has been requested to specifically
include this backfilling and Green Kroll has agreed to do so.
They are further required to furnish the City with a hold harmless
agreement because a shelf cannot be provided. Most of the back -
filling will be done with large coral rock boulders so the dirt
will not vanish into the canal. Green Kroll has agreed to the
requirement for the hold harmless.
V/M Massaro said Green Kroll is willing to meet all the require-
ments and will furnish the City with the endorsement, as part of
the $400,000.00 bond. The bond will not be released until this
work has been completed. The City will also be provided with
the hold harmless agreement, which will be subject to the approval
of the City Attorney. Green Kroll is asking for the release of
the permit for lot #10. No Certificate of Occupancy is to be
issued until all the work has been completed, and V/M Massaro
said she would so MOVE. SECONDED by C/M Kravitz.

b) Barry Eden, applicant, said the site plan shows the intended use of
the property. He said the building is basically a mansard front wood
facia building with a glass store front. He
said he feels the City needs a type of building that would provide
service -type businesses with bulk storage space and yet be aesthetically
acceptable. He said the building is 70' deep and the front 20' of this
would be office/retail use. He said Greg Darby prepared the site plan
and it was indicated that if the project was approved, there would be
a median cut in front of this property available from the County.
V/M Massaro asked Mr. Eden why any other zoning is needed other than
what he already has and Mr. Eden said B-5 and B-6 are good zones for
office -type use; however, he needs a minimum of a B-2 to accomplish
the objective he has planned with this building.
- 21 - 12/14/83
/pm
V/M Massaro said the B-5 was given with this thought in mind so that
it would blend with this area and she feels the B-5 zoning is too
much and this should be zoned residential. Mr. Eden said there is
a canal on two sides of the property with buffer zones and Greg
Darby provided a major landscaped area and this building is far
away from Paradise Estates. He said with the B-5 zoning, a building
can be 2 or 3 stories but with B-3 it would be restricted to a 1
story building. C/M Krantz said Pine Island is surrounded with
residential communities and this seems inappropriate. Mr. Eden
said this property has always been zoned commercial. V/M Massaro
asked Mr. Eden if he owns this property and he said no, he has an
option to purchase it. C/M Stelzer said the Planning Commission
was unanimously opposed to this.
Mayor Falck opened the public hearing. Herman Weiss, property owner
in Paradise Estates, said he has a business in Tamarac and proposes
to erect a commercial building in Tamarac; however, the residents
of this area are opposed to the change of zoning. He said Pine
Island Road is basically a residential street and by changing this
zoning, the impact on this road would become a liberal commercial
district and a catch-all for unwanted businesses. He said B--3 is
inconsistent with the Land Use Plan and the property in question
is in the middle of the block and not at a main intersection.
Kim Jones, resident of Paradise Estates said he is opposed as well.
Mayor Falck closed the public hearing. V/M Massaro MOVED that

46. Presentation by Miller_& Meier - Status report - Discussion
and possible action.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: Agendized by Consent.
See Page 3 . Presentation was given
and Council APPROVED using a model instead
of a second drawing for public relations
purposes at an additional cost of $5,000.
The Mayor, City Manager and City Attorney
are to meet, discuss potential problems
and report to Council.
Craig Kenyon, representing Miller & Meier, said in previous meetings
with Council there was discussion concerning the concept of providing a
rendering or a model to present to the public for the bond issue
referendum. He said there is provision in the contract to do one
rendering as part of the schematic design service and they feel a
model would be a better choice. He said this could be done in a
small scale to be transported around to all the civic groups as a
public relations effort to get the referendum passed. He said it
would be approximately 30" by 40" and show the two buildings, the
allocation of space for the future community center, parking, access,
etc. He said this would not be final but they would take one of the
proposed site plans and create the artists model from that.
Mr. Henning said because of the location of the buildings it is not
the type of drawing where they can be illustrated together. He said
the contract has a credit for a drawing for about $5,000, however,
two drawings would be needed to do this properly which would be an
additional $5,000. He said the model will be approximately $10,000
and the City will get a credit for the $5,000 that would have been
paid for the drawing. He said they plan to video tape either the
model or the rendering to get a presentation together. Mr. Kenyon
ape said with their experience with these presentations, they have found
6 that models tend to be more easily understood.
Mr. Kenyon said it will take approximately 3 weeks to prepare the
renderings or the model and the City Manager needs this as soon as
possible to start the public relations effort. Mayor Falck said
he would prefer a model and C/M Krantz concurred. C/M Krantz MOVED
that a model be used instead of a second drawing at an additional
cost of $5,000. SECONDED by C/M Stelzer

Laura Stuurmans said there are several points to be discussed relating
to the City facilities and preparations towards the election process.
She said from discussions with participants in the administrative
level, they feel very strongly that Council should retain the services
of financial advisors for the issuance of this bond issue. In order
to do that, she said, the Competitive Negotiations Act should be
followed. In recognizing th,e entanglements that occur with that,
she requested permission to solicit for those immediately.
- 23 - 12/14/83
/pm
Laura Stuurmans said the other aspect is questions of approaches to
presenting the question to the public. V/M Massaro questioned
whether the first bond issue was handled without cost and then bond
counsel was hired and Mayor Falck said it was. Laura Stuurmans
said they are now talking about retaining the services of a financial
advisor who would have a fee associated for his services but the
fee in case of a loss of the issue at referendum would be structured
differently than a successful endeavor.
V/M Massaro said she would like to review what was done when there
was bond counsel and financial advisors for the utility because no
one was hired until such time as the City was ready to move forward
on the bond issue itself. Mayor Falck said he sent the City Manager
and Council a brief summary of comments made to him as a result of
an individual who had contacted him. One was the former General
Counsel for the Florida League of Cities who operates out of Jackson-
ville and has offered to come down at no expense to the City to
discuss this. He said another individual who has worked on bond
issues for surrounding cities has said there are no fees connected
with this at this stage. He suggested these people or others be
contacted to learn what they have to offer.
The City Manager said staff is suggesting the services of both,a
financial advisor and bond counsel. V/M Massaro said the financial
advisor came along later and if it were not that the law required it,
the City would have been better off without them. Mr. Henning said
there is an election in March at which time a referendum will be
prepared for the electorate for this bond issue. There is another
question regarding the County 201 Program and the Tamarac Utility
Plant expansion and that is whether these should go on separate
referendums or be considered all at once. Council expressed concern
with discussing this at this time since it is not on the agenda and
the City Manager said at the time Council concurred that there
should be both a City Hall complex and a Police facility presented
to the electorate for bond issue, staff was asked to review certain
things and bring the information to Council. She said with dead-
lines forthcoming soon, they felt consideration should be given
as soon as possible.
Mayor Falck said he would suggest Council look at what the City
Manager has available for presentation to Council and discuss with
the City Attorney the matter of 201 plus related items. V/M
Massaro suggested the Mayor, City Manager and City Attorney outline
the problems and bring a memo back to Council for review.

was a septic tank turned out to be the grease trap for the old Rum
Runner Restaurant. He said the building is on City sewer and water
so that there is no longer a need for a Water and Sewer Developers
Agreement, this would delete Item d� from this agenda. He said Item

to move the fire hydrant to the other side of the driveway.

there is a problem with the location of the dumpster and she suggested
on the left side where the handicapped space is shown, the dumpster
could be located there allowing easy access as well as a nicer area
for beautification. She said the parking area would have to be re-

Code requirements for handicapped parking require that a handicapped
person not have to cross a drive to enter the building. Mr. Lira

a) Mr. Henning read Temp. Reso. #2970 by title and V/M Massaro MOVED
the ADOPTION of Temp. Reso. #2970 as read, SECONDED by C/M Krantz.
Mr. Henning said the platisin the process of being approved by
the County and this will not be a permanent waiver but merely a means
of allowing them to move forward. Mr. Henning said the Broward
County Environmental Quality Control Board must be satisfied and
they have joined the City to avoid droblems in this area.
He said if Council wants them, with Broward County approval, to
receive a certificate of occupancy, he recommended they strike
(a) in Section 3.
V/M Massaro asked Mr. Henning if this were not one of the areas
where they are seeking additional dedication and Mr. Henning said
yes. Mr. Rubin said Council would be protected in this regard
since they have for approval a license to go on the property and
a bond in an amount of $5,000 to tear down this building if the
property is not platted by December, 1984. He said the County
might not allow this plat because they are not allowing a 40'
additional right-of-way for University Drive. He said if this is
the case, the City has the control of the license and the bond to
go on the property and remove the structure with his permission.
However, Mr. Rubin said, the applicant does want to have a cer-
tificate of occupancy and operate this by February to make this
season to sell his homes.
City Manager Stuurmans said this follows a similar case reviewed a
year ago when there was a problem with the cart before the horse
situation with E.Q.C.B. Mr. Henning suggested striking Section
3 (a) and changing it to "requirements of Broward County Environ-
mental Control Board shall be satisfied". Mr. Rubin submitted for
the City's records a copy of a letter from Mike Cavelli of Keith
& Schnars which shows that the County Engineering Department is
comfortable with the plat as proposed.
V/M Massaro said this is the entrance to Woodmont and they are
willing to dedicate 17' of University Drive. Mr. Henning said
there should also be a new Section "E" stating "this waiver shall
expire on 12/15/84". V/M Massaro AMENDED her MOTION for APPROVAL
of Temp. Reso. #2970 as amended and the.SECOND concurred.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: APPROVED

Mr. Henning said originally there were 75 ERCs or units paid for
by Lennar under the name of F & R Builders. Recently they requested
phasing this Agreement for the Ashmont project and it was discussed
a few weeks ago, granting them approval to pull water meters for
Phase I, for the guardhouse and the pool and cabana. He said they
have paid all the contribution charges for their first phase. He
said they have developed an Agreement accounting for all the units
and meters, and they will continue to pay interest on those 168 ERCs
or units that have not been purchased.
Mr. Henning said, in light of the payments they have made already
which total $60,274 and the Agreement to continue to pay the interest
on 168 outstanding ERCs,he recommended approval. C/M Kravitz said
he has a notation of guaranteed revenues due amounting to $1,778.40

SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: RESOLUTION NO. R-83- 7 PASSED.
a) APPROVED as submitted for Site Plan 1 only.
b) APPROVED
c) See minutes.
a) Mr. Henning read the Resolution by title and Richard Rubin said
the applicant has found that the present units are not selling and
they are revising their product; therefore, they are revising the
site plan for all those buildings that have not been built. He said
it has been broken into two phases and they are asking for approval
for Phase I today and they will seek approval for Phase II at some
future date. He said staff has reviewed this and the City Engineer
has determined that there are more fees required for the changes to
the site plan which will be required to be paid when they seek their
first building permit.
Mr. Rubin said staff recommends approving the project subject to pay-
ment of $215.48 Landscape Fee for the tennis court. He said the
applicant has advised him that the post office is no longer delivering
mail to individual mailboxes but they are delivering it in gang mail-
boxes. He said the applicant has requested Council approve the
location of those mailboxes in an acceptable location to the City
Engineer.

c) Mr. Henning said the site plan has been approved and this is an
Exhibit to the Water and Sewer Agreement and this is a reason for
the Agreement's revision. He said the new site plan will not have a
different number of units; however, the footprint of the building is
different and from an engineering standpoint, the meter configuration
is different. He said they originally planned individual meters for
196 units and they are changing to a multi -family configuration now.
This has no bearing on the contribution charges since these were
already purchased. He said the essence of the second amendment to
the Water and Sewer Developers Agreement is to correct the site plan
and the property description, this gives an amended Exhibit A, an
amended Exhibit C and an amended Exhibit D which is the configuration
of meters. He recommended approval of these with the proviso that
the amended Exhibit D be approved by the City Engineer.
Mr. Henning referred to Page 2, Paragraph 4 which should read "amended
Exhibit A, amended Exhibit C, site plan, and amended Exhibit D, ERC
summation". He said there will be no effect on dollars or units but
there may be an effect on the meter sizes and the number of meters.
V/M Massaro said the City Manager emphasized that she wanted the
size and number of meters to reflect what the applicant's engineers
had submitted in the beginning and this was agreed upon yesterday.
She said this is what Exhibit D is to reflect. V/M Massaro said the
only change that City staff should make would be if they were not
sufficient but if they are more than what staff feels is needed,
they should take the information furnished by the applicant.
V/M Massaro MOVED that Exhibit D be corrected to reflect the number
and size of meters as'indicated on the schedule submitted by their
engineers previously and required by the City Manager. This change
was initialled by Mr. Riefs. SECONDED by C/M Kravitz.

C/M Stelzer said he had received complaints from people purchasing
homes in Tamarac Gardens and he discussed these with Marty Riefs.
The complaints mainly concern the size of the pool and clubhouse and
he went to the location and the size of the pool is adequate and the
clubhouse was never intended as an assembly hall but only for card
and billiard playing. Mr. Henning said he viewed the premises with
the City Planner after having heard many complaints and suggested
the residents get on the mailing list to receive the Council agendas
and attend the meetings. He said he determined:
1. that there is a minimum square footage required in the City and
this was met.
2. the number of units has not changed, only the configuration of the
apartments has changed.
3. the recreation clubhouse was never intended as an assembly room
and unless there has been a change adverse to the condominium
documents, it does not affect this plan.
V/M Massaro requested Lennar consider the recommendation as made by
these residents for future projects but the City can do nothing at
this point.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTION:
The"City Engineer was authorized to proceed with the
necessary design work and bring to Council for final approval in
accordance with his memo of 12/5/83.
V/M Massaro said 70 Avenue and 58 Street are top priority and should
be considered immediately for drainage improvements. She said the
City Engineer will meet with the Public Works Director concerning
this location. C/M Kravitz said he has received several complaints
from residents of Section 5. The City Manager referred Council to
a memo from the City Engineer to her dated 12/5/83 in which some of
the obvious priorities of drainage and road surfacing work is outlined.
She said once the City has received the new jet vac equipment, this
work can be completed.
Mr. Keating, City Engineer, said he and the Public Works Director
cannot make a determination as to whether capital improvements are
required until they get this equipment and those lines are dry and
inspected. The City Manager said the City Engineer's list does
indicate the four priority areas which would cost approximately
$300,000. Mayor Falck suggested authorizing the City Engineer to

and possible action to amend Section 28-27.2 of the Code by
revising the Table of Miscellaneous Residential Zoning Require-
ments to provide a new portion titled "Maximum Plot Coverage"
(for all impervious areas) and providing for maximum percentage
of coverage on all lots. First Reading.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: Public Hearing was
held and this was APPROVED on first
reading. The City Planner will explore
percentages within surrounding cities.
Mr. Henning read the Ordinance by title and Mayor Falck openea the
public hearing. Walter Rekuc, resident, said he thinks the percent-
ages are much too. large. He said Broward County has 60% and they
are reducing this to 50%, Coral Springs is reducing theirs to 55%,
and he recommended reducing Tamarac's to 55% in all areas up to
RM5 and from R-3U down, 45% should be considered.
Vickie Beech asked for a clarification of this Ordinance and Mr.
Henning said this basically states that in all residential areas,
whether a single family or multi -family lot, you cannot cover the
lot with non -pervious material such as a building, pavement or
parking lot more than 2/3 of the lot coverage. This would allow
1/3 of the lot to be available for percolation, drainage and flood
control. V/M Massaro MOVED APPROVAL on first reading of Temp. Ord.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: Public Hearing was
held and this was APPROVED on first
reading with the old language to be
stricken by the City Attorney.
Mr. Henning read the Ordinance by title and Richard Rubin said the
way the Ordinance is written presently, if you have a commercial
shopping center, the restaurant being placed in there cannot be any
closer than 100' from the adjacent residential property. He said
they believe that the purpose of this Ordinance originally was to
state that the restaurant property, the establishment itself, should
be 100' away; therefore, the clarification of the Ordinance states
that the bay of the restaurant cannot be closer than 100'. Mayor
Falck opened and closed the public hearing with no response. V/M
Massaro MOVED this Item be TABLED to the next regular meeting so

Director - Discussion and possible action.
SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: Agendized by Consent.
APPROVED permanent status of employment
for Chief Building Official and Public
Works Director as requested by the City
Manager.
City Manager Stuurmans said every employee is reviewed after a period
of 6 months and if they are satisfactory, they are given permanent
status. She said she has recently had the opportunity to review Sam
Stevens, who has been with the City for 8 months and Greg Turek, who
has been with the City for 7 months and she feels they have made a
significant contribution to the City. She said she would like to
lift the requirement of one year's probation that she placed at the
time of their hiring. She said the basis of her request at that time
was predicated on past treatment of Chief McIntosh when he came to
the City. She said he came in June, 1980 but was reviewed in December,
1980 and at that time he was given permanent status.
V/M Massaro MOVED to Agendize this matter by Consent, SECONDED by
