CITY OF TAMARAC, FLORIDA
RESOLUTION NO. R-98- 9 %
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF TAMARAC, FLORIDA OPPOSING ANY LOCAL OR
GENERAL BILL WHICH WOULD REQUIRE A CITY
ANNEXING UNINCORPORATED PROPERTY TO RETAIN
COUNTY EMPLOYEES WHICH MIGHT BE DISPLACED AS A
RESULT OF SUCH ANNEXATION; PROVIDING FOR
CONFLICTS; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; AND
PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the City of Tamarac believes that its home rule powers give Broward
cities full authority to determine the nature and extent of its labor force, levels of service,
and hiring policies; and
WHEREAS, a proposal has been made to the Broward County Legislative
Delegation which would require any cities which annex property (whether through a
voluntary annexation or a local bill) to retain County employees which might be displaced
as a result of said annexation; and
WHEREAS, such a bill would violate the home rule powers of Broward cities, be
extremely difficult to implement given the differing employment policies of the various cities
in the County, and would unfairly burden cities in determining proper policies, levels of
service and service issues; and
WHEREAS, the City Commission of the City of Tamarac, Florida deems it to be in
the best interests of the citizens and residents of the City of Tamarac to oppose such a
local or general bill.
