ASSUMPTIONS & SUPPOSITIONS FOR FORECASTS
In order to have a basis for planning capital improvements necessary
and/or desirable for City operations, it is necessary that certain criteria
be established.
I have therefore planned for capital improvements utilizing the following
assumptions and suppositions:
1. Population growth need be at rate of approximately 3500 dwelling units
x 2.0 residents per unit, or about 7,000 population increase per year.
2. By Fiscal 1977-1978 growth will have reached a point to require a
second fire station to adequately serve the increased developed areas
in the western part of the City.
3. Major roads lying within the corporate limits, (Prospect Road, Com-
mercial Boulevard, State Road #7, and University Drive) all are a part
of either the County or State Road systems, and will therefore be main-
tained by the County or State. The City will be responsible only for
maintenance of the median strips and swale areas. Residential streets
will, require patching and resurfacing at City expense.
4. Acquisition of a site for construction of a"City Facilities Complex"
has been funded from surplus and current revenues, and the purchase
has been consumated during Fiscal '73-'74.
5. Costs of operation and maintenance of streets, canals drainage City
Hall, etc., are routine items included in our yearly operating budgets.
I include in this report, estimates requiring advance planning for
major facilities such as fire stations, parks, etc.
6. While we have made no plans for City owned and operated parks and re-
creation facilities, we have an ordinance relating to such facilities.
To date, the City has received approximately $60,000 per year from
developers for these purposes. I am forecasting the same revenue for
succeeding years, and forecasting expenditure of five years revenue plus
matching federal grant funds for parks and recreation facilities.
7. Equipment of relatively short life (5-10 years) used for routine operations
is not included in the capital improvements budgets, but rather as a yearly
item in the operating funds budget. Such items would be police vehicles,
public works vehicles and equipment, canal cleaning equipment, etc.

SUPPORTING INFORMATION. BY PROJECT . BY YEAR
107/1-1075
1. Acquired at no cost
a) Streets completed during resent and past years.
It is anticipated that, prior to October 1, 1975, engineering
inspections will have been completed, any sub -standard conditions may
be corrected, and City will accept improvements of all existing ded-
icated streets. It is also anticipated that, due to our present pro-
cedure of approval of engineering , and inspection of improvements
as built, we will accept future streets and improvements as they are
completed.
1. Necessity of ac uisition is obvious.
As streets have been either deeded or dedicated by plat, and as the
developer will in time relinquish all responsibility for maintenance,
the City must, after proper assurance that improvements meet speci-
fications, accept them as City facilities.
2. Cost of facilities is no factor as they are designed, constructed
and costs born by developers, then transferred to City.
3. Method of financing - not applicable
4. Estimated annual cost of maintenance
As the oldest streets in the City are now approaching eleven years
of age, we are faced with the necessity of planning for a contin-
uing resurfacing requirement. We are therefore faced with four
r�etitive maintenance functions which will increase as additional
streets are constructed and turned over to the City. The four functions
are: -
a) repaving (residential streets only)
b) patching
c) median maintenance
d) swale maintenance (commercial streets)
Present development has resulted in the following completed
improvements:
Residential streets 80 miles
Commercial streets 12 miles
Medians 15 miles
"Revised and adopted 29th September, 1974 by Resolution #74-75"
7-
The largest maintenance item, repaving, costs approximately $10,000
per mile, for forecast purposes, I am proposing budgeting for four
miles of repaving in fiscal 1974-1975, increasing by one mile per
year for subsequent years.
Street patching, median maintenance, and swale maintenance is pro-
perly a routine function of the Public Works Department, and included
in their yearly budget.It is anticipated three three-man crews will be re-
quested for these functions and be included in the GLneral Fund operating
budget.
As this is a repetitive item, it will be recognized but not detailed for
subsequent years.
b) Canals & drainage facilities completed during present and prior fiscal
years.
As with streets, it is anticipated that existing and completed canals and
drainage facilities will be accepted by the City.
(1) Necessity of acquisition
The same obvious requirements for acceptance as prevails for completed
streets.
(2) Cost again is no factor
(3) Method of financing is not applicable.
(4) Estimated annual cost of maintenance
There presently are approximately 45 miles of canals within the City. For
this fiscal year, we have budgeted approximately $65,000 for canal
maintenance. Of this, $16,500 was received from the State as a grant.
It is anticipated this program will continue.
It is planned that personnel responsible for canal cleaning will also
perform necessary routine work on drainage systems. It is planned that
budget for two three-man crews plus supplies will be included in the
General Fund budget.
As this is a repetitive item, it will not be detailed for subsequent
years.
"Revised and adopted 29th September, 1974 by Resolution #74-75"
2. To be urchased
c) Park sites
(1) Necessity
To repeat .form the assumptions and forecasts, we have no plans
for parks, but have an obligation due to enactment of legislation
requireing developers under certain conditions to donate funds
to a Parks & Recreation Fund. We must expend funds received for
those purposes. It is planned site purchase and development will
occur every other year.
(2 & 3) Cost & Method of Financing
We have received approximately $60,000 per year since the
adoption of the ordinance providing funds for the Park &
Recreation Fund.__ It is anticipated a similiar amount will be
received during each of the next five years.
As a part of our program, Federal Grants acquisition should be
attempted , which,if successful, could match City funds on a
50-50 basis.
As there is a lag between receipt of funds, application for
matching money, and the actual expenditure, I am forecasting for
only five years of receipts and matching funds, to be spread over
the 5 year program.
(4 Maintenance & Operation_
This will be included in our yearly operational budget, as
development is accomplished.
3. To be constructed
a) City Hall
(1) Necessity
We are presently occupying a grossly inadequate , inefficient
facility, leased until April of 1976. It is an absolute must
that we acquire larger facilities at as early a date as possible.
(2) Cost estimate
Present plans call for construction of a City Hall to be com-
pleted approximately 18 months after. As it will be impossible
to even closely estimate costs until an architect is selected
and preliminary analysis and design work is complete, I am in-
cluding a "ball -park" estimate of $1,000,000, based on 25,000
square feet at a cost of $40.00 per square foot.
"Revised and adopted 29th September, 1974 by Resolution #74-75"
sea
(3) Method of financing
As we are anticipating purchase of the site from available funds,
I believe there will be no alternative but to finance planned im-
provements through the issue and sale of General Obligation Bonds.
(4) Operation and Maintenance
Costs of operation and maintenance will be included in our General
Fund operating budget.
b) Court & Meeting Hall Facilities
(1) Necessity
In order that the County can hold court in Tamarac after the
Municipal Court is phased out, and to provide required room
for Council meetings , etc., at the new City Hall site, it will
be necessary to construct a Court/Meeting Hall building.
(2) Estimated Cost of a 5184 square footbuilding (72' x 72 - ) at $35.00
per square foot would be $180,000.
(3) Method of Financing
As with the City Hall, the recommendation for financing is through
sale of General Obligation Bonds.
(4) Cost of Q eration and Maintenance
To be included in the General Fund operating budget.
c) Library
(1) Necessity
Although there has been no formal discussion and decision, members
Of Council and residents have indicated a need for a library. I am
therefore including it in the forecast and recommendation.
(2) Cast Estimate
For estimate purposes, I have taken a figure of 3,000 square feet,
at $35.00 per square foot, for a total of $105,000.
(3) Method of Financin
To be included in the previously recommended General Obligation
Bond program.
"Revised and adopted 29th September, 1974 by Resolution #74-75"
-10-
(4) Cost of Operation and Maintenance
We have been informed that if a facility is provided, the
County, will pay the costs of stocking, manning, and operation.
If there are costs such as utilities, janitorial or others, they
will be included in our operation budget.
d) Fire Stati.onw(Main)
(1) Necessity
While there is no mandatory requirement for establishment of
a Municipal Fire Department, extensive development and habitation
in the western area of the City, several miles from the location
of the contracted service, makes it highly desireable to construct
and operate a City Fire Department. I am therefore recommending
this to be included in the planned City Hall complex.
(2) Cost Estimate
Again, "ball -park" estimates must be used until the facility is
designed. For the Fire Department, I estimate 4,800 square feet,
at $35.00, or $170,000.
"Revised and adopted 29th September, 1974 by Resolution #74-75"
11-
(3) Method of Financing
To be included in the General Obligation Bond program.
(4) Maintenance & Operation
With the formation of a Fire Department will come the re-
quirement for staffing and operational. costs. Provision for
24 hour, 7 day operation is necessary. Cost of operation will
depend to a large extent on whether the operation is to be
totally paid, or on a partial volunteer basis. As completion
of the station, and beginning operation will be scheduled for
FX 75-76, 1 am at this time only estimating an operational budget
of from $100,000 to $300,000 per year.
e) Public Works Compound
(1) Necessity
Our present vehicle park is at the extreme eastern border of the
City. Additionally, it has no facilities for storage nor for the
performance of maintenance.
As our fleet of vehicles grows, it is economically desireable that
we establish, a City garage and maintenance capability and provide
a central location for our operations. This could be done in con-
junction with the present plan for a City Hall complex.
(2) Cost estimate
Estimated costs to provide a small maintenance garage with hydraulic
hoist , necessary tools and equipment , gasoline tank and pump, and
screened vehicle storage yard is $64,000.
(3) Method of Financing
To be included in the General Obligation Bond program.
(4) Maintenance & 0 eration
Operation and maintenance will be routine costs included in the
General Fund operating budget.
f) Park & Recreation Facilities
(1) Necessity
As previously stated, having required developers to donate to the
Park and Recreation fund, we have an obligation to expend the funds
collected for that purpose.
(2 & 3) Cost & Method of Financing
See 1974-75 2-0 (2 & 3)
'Revised and adopted 29th September, 1974 by Resolution -#74-75"___
_Y --
.. - __1 - - - -- - ---.. _ -
(4) Costs of Operation & Maintenance
To be included in General Fund operational budget for the
appropriate years.
h) Drainage Im rovements
(1) Necessity
It is anticipated that there will be a need for drainage im-
provements not recognized during initial plarning and construc-
tion phases.
(2) Costs
As specific items cannot be anticipated, a figure of $50,000 is
included for FY75-76. It can either be carried over to subsequent
years, increased, decreased, or deleted as circumstances dictate.
(3) Method of financing
To be financed from current revenues
(4) Maintenance & Operation
As with other drainage facilities, costs of maintenance will be
included in yearly Public Works operational budgets.
i) Sidewalks & bike paths
(1) Necessity
Due to the nature of the City of Tamarac, with large numbers of
residents who walk or ride bicycles from area to area, it would
be very desireable to have a network of sidewalks and bicycle paths
throughout the City.
(2) Costs
Costs will of course be determined by the type, construction, and
extent of the program. For recognition purposes, I am recommending
provision of $25,000 per year to be allocated for the purpose.
(3) Method of Financing
To be financed from current revenues
(4) Maintenance & Operation
Maintenance & operational costs would be nominal, and included in
the general operating budget.

1Q7S-7Q7F
I. Acquired at no cost
a) Streets completed during year
(See FY 1974-75 1-a Page 9)
b) Canals and Drainage facilities
(See FY 1974-75 1-b Page 10)
2. To be Purchased
a) E ui ment & furniture for Library, City Hall etc.
(1) Nec� essitY
As a part of the program of construction of a new City Hall,
Library , and Court/Meeting Hall, it will be necessary to
Provide the required furniture and equipment to make these
.facilities functional.
(2) Cost
For estimating purposes, I have used a figure of 8% of estimated
construction costs, or $102,000. This figure will be refined as
plans are developed for the facilities.
(3) Method of Financing
To be included in the General Obligation Bond program.
(4) Maintenance & Operation
Not applicable
b) Fire Department E ui ment for Main Station
- (l) Necessity
Equipment will be made necessary by the plan to construct and operate
the City Fire Department.
(2) Cost
An aproximation of costs, based on todays figures, is for one
pumper at $65,000, one brush truck at $20,000 , one Chief's car
at $4,000, and $15,000 of supporting equipment, for a total of
$104,000.
(3) Financing
To be provided as part of the General Obligation Bond program.
"Revised and adopted 29th September, 1974 by Resolution #74-75"
14-
(4) Maintenance & 0 eration
Included in the narrative regarding__ construction of the station.
Page 13.
d) Water & Sewer System
(1) Necessity
A part of the basic philosophy of City Government is to provide
services, including utilities. Theoretically, costs would be lower,
profits would accrue to the City, and therefore the residents, and
control would be in the hands of elected officials. 1 feel we should
acquire Tamarac Utilities as a part of our overall City function.
(2) Cost
Cost of acquisition is impossible to compute at this time, being
a direct result of numbers of connections and future expansion of
the system at the time of acquisition.
(3) Method of Financin
Universally, acquisition of utility systems by Cities is by revenue
bonds, and has no effect on general City revenues.
(4) Maintenance and Operation
Again, these costs are a part of the utility fund, provided
through utility revenues, and do not effect general City
revenues.

(2) To be purchased
b) Fire De artment Equipment for Sub Station
(1) Necessity
By 1977-78, it is anticipated that due to growth, there will be
required and justified an additional Fire Station to be located
in the far western area of the City.
(2) Cost Estimates
It is anticipated this will be a duplicate of those requirements
outlined in FY 75-76 2-b Page 16, amounting to $104,000.
(3) Method of Financing
At present, it is recommended that this be planned to finance
from current revenues.
(4) Maintenance & aeration
Again, this is a duplicate of the main station, detailed for 1974-75
