CITY ATTORNEY. THIS IS LET ME READ THE TITLE JUST FOR PURPOSE OF THE AUDIENCE NOT HERE.

RESOLUTION OF CITY COMMISSION OF CITY OF TAMARAC ESTABLISHING THE CITY AS AN ANTI-BULLYING ANTI-HATE COMMUNITY, AND DIRECT THE CITY MANAGER OR DESIGNEE TO ESTABLISH INITIATIVES AND POLICIES CONSISTENT WITH THIS RESOLUTION.

THIS IS A RESOLUTION SPONSORED BY COMMISSIONER PATTERSON.

I BELIEVE SHE WILL SPEAK AT ON THIS RESOLUTION ON WEDNESDAY, AND IT'S APPROPRIATE FOR HER TO SPEAK VERSUS STAFF BECAUSE SHE SPONSORED DURING THE COMMISSION MEETING. CORRECT. OKAY. THANK YOU.

AND THEN AND THEN WE HAVE ITEM 4 B THAT'S THE THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE CONTRACT FOR SALE AND PURCHASE OF PROPERTY.

[4.b TR14251 - A Resolution of the City Commission of the City of Tamarac, Florida, approving the First Amendment to the Contract for Sale and Purchase of Real Property between Matt Rosenbaum, Co-Trustee of the Tamarac Land Trust dated July 10, 2013, and EU International, LLC, to permanently remove folio number 4941-08-27-0040 from the contract and replace it with property bearing folio number 4941-08-27-0060 for a reduced purchase price of five million nine hundred sixty-six thousand seven hundred fourteen dollars and seventy cents ($5,966,714.70); authorizing the City Manager and City Attorney to take all necessary action to effectuate the disposition; providing for conflicts; providing for severability; and providing for an effective date.]

AND THAT'S THERE'S A PRESENTATION THAT THAT WE WILL WE WILL DO BUT WE CAN RUN THROUGH THAT PRESENTATION QUICKLY, JIM, IF YOU CAN. THIS IS ESSENTIALLY WELL, YOU'LL SEE IN THE PRESENTATION MUCH BETTER ACTUALLY.

CAN WE HAVE THAT? WE HAVE THE DEVELOPER HERE.

BUT I'M I'M GOING TO TRY TO DO THIS AKRAM AND THEN YOU KNOW, IF I MISS SOMETHING, YOU CAN, YOU CAN JUMP IN, BUT YOU WILL BE DOING THIS PRESENTATION AT THE COMMISSION MEETING ON WEDNESDAY EVENING.

SO THESE ARE THE PROPERTIES THAT ARE CURRENTLY UNDER CONTRACT, THOSE THAT ARE SHADED BLUE.

AND WE HAVE OUR AMPHITHEATER ON THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF THAT LARGE PIECE OF PROPERTY.

SO THIS PROPOSAL IS ESSENTIALLY SWAPPING THE THE CORNER PIECE WITH THE WITH THE PROPERTY THAT'S JUST OUTSIDE OF THE SPLASH PAD ON THE, ON THE WEST SIDE OF THAT.

AND SO THE ESSENCE OR THE PURPOSE OF THIS IS TO PROVIDE A MORE UNIFIED, PROPERTY FOR DEVELOPMENT PURPOSES AND THEN PROVIDE MORE GREEN SPACE ON THE ON THE ADJACENT

[00:05:04]

LOT TO THE EXISTING RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY. SO THIS IS A SITE PLAN.

I'M SURE THE DEVELOPER IS GOING TO DO A MUCH BETTER JOB THAN I DO, BUT THIS IS ESSENTIALLY THE THE OLD PLAN, THE OLD, OLD, OLD PLAN FOR TAMARAC VILLAGE THAT CALLED FOR PARKING LOT AND COMMERCIAL BUILDING AND SOME YOU KNOW, GARBAGE CONTAINERS RIGHT NEXT TO THE DEVELOPMENT.

SO THIS WAS THE ORIGINAL TAMARAC VILLAGE PLAN.

SO IT TAKES IT FROM HERE TO ALL THIS GREEN SPACE RIGHT NEXT TO THE EXISTING TAMARAC VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT, WHICH IS AN INCREDIBLE IMPROVEMENT, ACTUALLY, TO TO THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR FOR THE EXISTING RESIDENTIAL AREAS AND FOR THE ENTIRE TAMARAC VILLAGE PROPERTY.

SO THIS IS A THESE ARE A COUPLE RENDERINGS OF WHAT THE NEW PLACE WOULD LOOK LIKE.

AND I THINK IT WOULD BRING A LITTLE BIT MORE COHESIVELY TO THAT GREEN SPACE WITH THE SPLASH PAD AND THE AMPHITHEATER AND OPEN SPACE. AND I THINK IT PROVIDES A LOT MORE GREEN SPACE.

RIGHT. OKAY. SO THAT'S A SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT OVER THE DIVIDED DEVELOPMENT. SO ONE OF THESE IS ANIMATED. I GUESS IT'S THIS ONE.

JIM, CAN YOU HIT THE ENTER? SO THIS ONE IS.

NO, I UPLOADED IT TO THE COMMISSION MEETING FOLDER.

IT WAS THE VERSION TWO. YEAH, ONE SAYS VERSION TWO.

THAT ONE, THAT ONE HAS THE THE ANIMATIONS. YEAH.

SO. YEAH. THAT ONE. YEP.

THIS IS TAMARAC, Y'ALL. [VIDEO] SO WE MAY EXPECT ALL THOSE LIGHTS. MR. MANAGER, I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS WE WANT TO ALERT THE PUBLIC IS FROM A BUSINESS TERM PERSPECTIVE, THAT THE DEVELOPER AGREED TO BUILD THE AMPHITHEATER BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH HIS DEVELOPMENT PROJECT.

I BELIEVE RIGHT WHEN THEY RECEIVED THE PERMIT WITH A PROJECT, THEY HAVE TO FINISH THE AMPHITHEATER IN THE PARK, THAT'S ONE OF THE CONDITIONS. AND IN TERMS OF THE PRICE THERE WAS A SLIGHT REDUCTION IN THE PRICE BASED ON THE ACREAGE REDUCTION BETWEEN THE SITE. AND I BELIEVE IT'S AROUND $76,000 I'M GOING OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD.

SO THAT'S SOMETHING THAT THE BUSINESS TERM WILL WE WILL DISCUSS MORE AT THE THE COMMISSION MEETING.

THAT'S CORRECT. THE THE RELOCATION IS COMPLETELY FUNDED BY THE BY THE DEVELOPER OR DEVELOPER.

AND I THINK IT ALSO PROVIDES SOME, SOME CONSOLIDATION OF THE RESTROOMS FROM WHERE THEY ARE TO THE TO THE BACK OF THE AMPHITHEATER, WHICH OPENS UP A WHOLE LOT MORE SPACE, GREEN SPACE FOR THE AREA.

SO. THANK YOU. SALE OF PROPERTY IS ALSO CONDITIONED ON SITE PLAN APPROVAL.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE RECORD. OKAY.

YEAH. ALL THOSE TERMS. YOU KNOW, THERE'S THING, BUT YOU'RE RIGHT.

THE THE RELOCATION OF THE AMPHITHEATER FOR PUBLICS PERSPECTIVE IS, IS TO BE DONE IN THE 180 DAYS WITHIN 180 DAYS OF THE PERMIT ISSUANCE.

ALL RIGHT. SO THAT'S THAT. AND THEN WE HAVE THE FIRST READING ON THE BUDGET AMENDMENT.

[5.a TO2585 - An Ordinance of the City Commission of the City of Tamarac, Florida, adopting the First (1st) Budget Amendment to the City of Tamarac operating budget, revenues and expenditures, the capital budget, and the financial policies for the Fiscal Year 2025, by increasing the total revenues and expenditures by a total of $2,895,924 as detailed in Attachment “A” attached hereto and summarized in Attachment “B” attached hereto and incorporated herein; providing that the 1st Amendment is being adopted in the same manner as the original budget and serves as the new adopted budget: providing for conflicts; providing for severability; and providing for an effective date.]

THAT'S THE FIRST AMENDMENT OF THE FISCAL YEAR 2025.

PRISCILLA, CAN YOU GIVE US JUST THE HIGHLIGHTS IN TERMS OF WHAT'S YOU KNOW WHAT'S IN THAT? OKAY. SO THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE FY 25 BUDGET IS FOR APPROXIMATELY $2.8

[00:10:01]

MILLION OR $2.9. IT'S INCREASING THE BUDGET FROM $237,000 OR $4,300 TO MILLIONS. SORRY. THE AMENDMENT WILL BE PRESENTED FOR THE FIRST READING ON APRIL 9TH AND THE SECOND READING AND ADOPTION ON APRIL 23RD 2025. IT'S BASICALLY THE ITEMS THAT ARE BEING APPROVED IS PROJECT DOCS E PLAN RESOLUTION. IT'S A SOFTWARE UPGRADE FOR $200,318.37. GENERAL FUND INCREASE OF $151,119.

ALSO THERE IS ADVANCED METERING INFRASTRUCTURE SYSTEM, IT'S A CITYWIDE PROGRAM FOR $9.2 MILLION AND IT WILL BE TO THE UTILITIES FUND. THERE ARE A FEW RECOMMENDED ADJUSTMENTS TO THE GENERAL FUND, A TRANSFER OF $486,187 FOR ENCUMBRANCES THAT ROLL FROM THE PRIOR YEAR.

SO THERE'S A REVENUE AND EXPENSE ADJUSTMENT RELATED TO THE CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE WOODLAND DEVELOPMENT AND WASTE MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS.

THERE'S ALSO NEW POSITIONS AND INITIATIVES THAT WOULD INCREASE BY $170,848 FOR TWO NEW COMMISSION AIDES POSITION AND $30,000 FOR COMMISSIONER BOLTON'S FIT ZONE PROPOSAL.

RIGHT. OKAY. OKAY. AND THERE'S ANOTHER FUND ADJUSTMENT, AN INCREASE TO APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE LAW ENFORCEMENT TRUST. THERE'S ALSO STORMWATER MANAGEMENT FUNDS AND COLONY WEST FUNDS THAT HAS A CARRYFORWARD ENCUMBRANCE, THAT'S A PART OF THE OVERALL ADJUSTMENT. AND THERE ARE FOR NEW FULL TIME EVENT SPECIALISTS IN PARKS AND RECS, BUT THAT HAS NO FISCAL IMPACT FOR FY 25.

AND THERE'S SOME RECLASSIFICATION OF POSITIONS TO HUMAN RESOURCES AND IT, IT ALSO HAS NO FINANCIAL IMPACT.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. WE MAY HAVE TO DO THIS AGAIN AT THE COMMISSION MEETING.

AND THEN WE HAVE SECOND READING OF THE THE ORDINANCE THAT'S CHANGING THE COMMISSION MEETING FORMAT.

AND AND THEN WE HAVE THE, THE PUBLIC HEARINGS ON THE [INAUDIBLE] PROGRAM.

[7.a TR14248 - A Resolution of the City Commission of the City of Tamarac, Florida approving the local housing assistance plan (LHAP) as required by the State Housing Initiatives Partnership Program Act, Subsections 420.907-420.9079, Florida Statutes; and rule Chapter 67-37, Florida Administrative Code; authorizing and directing the Mayor to execute any necessary documents and certifications needed by the state; authorizing the submission of the Local Housing Assistance Plan for review and approval by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation (FHFC); authorizing the appropriate City Officials to accept the State of Florida’s State Housing Initiatives Partnership (ship) program budget by accepting the Fiscal Year 2025, 2026, and 2027 allocations of the program funds to be utilized according to the city’s Local Housing Assistance Plan and housing delivery goals chart; that the appropriate City Officials are hereby authorized to appropriate said funds including any and all subsequent budgetary transfers to be in accordance with proper accounting standards; providing for conflict; providing for severability; and providing an effective date.]

AND VERY, MINOR CHANGES, BUT [INAUDIBLE] YOU WANT TO SAY A FEW WORDS ABOUT THOSE CHANGES COMING UP.

I JUST PUT A SHORT PRESENTATION. GOOD MORNING [INAUDIBLE] ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT.

THE PURPOSE OF THE OF THIS ITEM IS TO OUTLINE THE STRATEGY AND BUDGET FOR UTILIZING SHIP FUNDS TO SUPPORT AFFORDABLE HOUSING INITIATIVE TARGETING VERY LOW, LOW AND MODERATE INCOME MARKET CONDITIONS. THE PRIOR [INAUDIBLE], ADOPTED IN 2022 AND AMENDED IN 2023, IS SET TO EXPIRE IN JUNE 2025. IT'S A THREE YEAR PROGRAM.

THE NEW PLAN CONTINUES SIMILAR STRATEGIES WITH UPDATES BASED ON CURRENT MARKET CONDITIONS.

THE PROPOSED HOUSING STRATEGIES IS PURCHASE ASSISTANCE WITH OR WITHOUT REHABILITATION, OWNER OCCUPIED REHABILITATION, EMERGENCY REPAIR, DISASTER REPAIR, MITIGATION TRIGGERED BY GUBERNATORIAL DECLARATION AND RENTAL ASSISTANCE AND RAPID REHOUSING.

THE NOTABLE CHANGES FROM LAST TIME, INCREASE IN MAXIMUM PURCHASE PRICE FROM $382,000 TO $450,000, TO REFLECT THE MARKET REALITIES. ASSET CAP ADJUSTMENT.

PREVIOUSLY, IT WAS A FLAT $25,000 AND NOW A TIERED RANGE FROM $25 TO $100,000, WITH ONE THIRD OF THE AMOUNT TO BE CONTRIBUTED BY THE APPLICANT.

SO ANYTHING ABOVE $25,000 ONE THIRD WILL BE CONTRIBUTED BY THE APPLICANT AND THE REST BY THE PROGRAM.

APPLICANTS WITH ASSETS OVER $100,000 REMAIN INELIGIBLE.

THESE CHANGES REFLECT RISING HOME PRICES, CONSTRUCTION COSTS AND AFFORDABILITY NEEDS.

FISCAL DETAILS 2025 [INAUDIBLE]. 2025 -2026 SHIP ALLOCATION ESTIMATED AT $560,256, UP FROM $553 ,424 IN FISCAL YEAR 24-25. THE FUNDS WILL BE INCORPORATED IN THE CITY ANNUAL BUDGET AND ARE AWARDED AS THE FIRST SUBORDINATE LOANS,

[00:15:01]

WITH A 15 YEAR RECAPTURE PERIOD. PROCESS AND APPROVAL.

OKAY SHIP REVIEW COMMITTEE CONDITIONALLY APPROVED THE DRAFT ON MARCH 5TH, 2025.

ADOPTION BY THE CITY COMMISSION FOLLOWING A PUBLIC HEARING IS REQUIRED BEFORE SUBMISSION TO THE FLORIDA HOUSING FINANCE CORPORATION.

THE INITIATIVE DIRECTLY SUPPORTS GOAL NUMBER FOUR OF THE CITY 2040 STRATEGIC PLAN.

TAMARAC IS VIBRANT BY PROMOTING HOUSING STABILITY AND ENHANCING THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR RESIDENTS.

THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR RECOMMENDS APPROVAL.

OKAY. THANK YOU. SO THAT'S THAT'S THE END OF THE THE REGULAR AGENDA.

AND THEN WE HAVE OTHER CONVERSATIONS. ONE IS GOING TO BE ABOUT THE TAMARAC MUNICIPAL COMPLEX DEVELOPMENT,

[9.a Tamarac Park Renovation and Design Discussion Presented by Parks & Recreation Director, Rudolph Galindo]

AND THE CONSULTANT FROM COLLIERS IS GOING TO COME IN AND DO A PRESENTATION ON THAT ONE.

I BELIEVE. NO, NO, THIS IS FOR THE MUNICIPAL DEVELOPMENT MUNICIPAL COMPLEX DEVELOPMENT.

SO THAT'S THE THE COLLIER THAT WILL BE BRINGING THEIR PLAN.

AND THEN AND THEN WE'LL TALK ABOUT THE TAMARAC PARK RENOVATION AND DESIGN DISCUSSION BASED ON THE THE FEEDBACK FROM THE COMMISSION THE LAST TIME.

SO, RUDY, YOU WANT TO RUN THROUGH YOUR PRESENTATION.

GOOD MORNING. RUDOLPH GALINDO, DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION.

SO WE'RE BRINGING THIS ITEM BACK FOR DISCUSSION. THIS IS TAMARAC PARK IMPROVEMENTS, WHICH WAS DISCUSSED AT THE LAST COMMISSION MEETING.

SO A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND ON THE PROJECT. WE HAVE SOME GRANT FUNDING.

THAT'S PART OF IT. THERE WAS SOME THERE WAS DIRECTION FROM THE COMMISSION AT LAST YEAR'S STRATEGIC PLANNING TO LOOK AT A TRACK.

AND BASED OFF THE DISCUSSION FROM THE LAST MEETING THERE WAS ONE OPTION THAT THE COMMISSION SHOWED INTEREST IN.

WITH A SMALLER TRACK, BUT ALSO A DESIRE FOR A LARGER TRACK, WHICH WAS THE 400 METER TRACK.

SO WE NOW HAVE THOSE THOSE TWO OPTIONS FOR DISCUSSION.

AND THE 200 METER TRACK AND LIGHTING, ALL OF THE SAFETY FEATURES IS $3.1 MILLION.

THE 400 METER TRACK IS A COST OF $5 MILLION. AND THE SURVEY WE WENT OVER AT THE LAST MEETING.

SO THIS WAS 130 PARTICIPANTS THAT UTILIZED THE PARK TO SEE WHAT THEIR INTERESTS WERE IN FIELD USAGE.

AND THE UPDATED DESIGNS WE HAVE THIS IS THE CURRENT CONDITIONS OF TAMARAC PARK.

THIS ITEM WAS THIS DESIGN WAS PRESENTED AT THE LAST COMMISSION MEETING, WHICH INCLUDES A WALKING PATH, A 200 METER TRACK, MULTI-PURPOSE FIELDS, UPGRADED LIGHTING, UPGRADED FENCING AND A BLUE LIGHT SECURITY SYSTEM AND THE OPTION THAT WAS ADDED THIS IS FOR THE 400 METER TRACK. SO THIS INCLUDES ALL OF THE SAFETY FEATURES, THE FENCING UPGRADED LIGHTING AND AS WELL AS THE, THE TRACK AND THE BLUE LIGHT SECURITY SYSTEM.

SO WE LOOKED AT SORT OF AN EXPANSION OF THE PROPERTY LINE, HAVING ALL THE BLEACHERS ON ONE SIDE TO BE ABLE TO FIT THIS WITHIN, WITHIN THE PARK. THERE'S SOME USE FOR MULTI-PURPOSE FIELD THAT'S IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TRACK.

SO THIS PROJECT COST IS $5 MILLION. AGAIN, INCLUDES ALL THE SAFETY FEATURES AS WELL AS THE 400 METER TRACK.

AND THESE TWO OPTIONS WILL BE BROUGHT FOR THE COMMISSION'S DISCUSSION ON WEDNESDAY.

SO, RUDY ON THAT. SO THERE'S STILL A BASEBALL DIAMOND INSIDE THE TRACK.

THERE'S NO BASEBALL DIAMOND, ONLY A MULTI-PURPOSE FIELD THAT'S IN THE MIDDLE.

IT COULD BE USED FOR FOOTBALL OR FOR SOCCER. FOR SOCCER.

AND WHAT'S THE PROXIMITY TO THE EXISTING FACILITIES? THE CELL FACILITIES AND THE BUILDING ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE TRACK? FROM THE BUILDING TO THE TRACK? I MEAN, IT SEEMS PRETTY CLOSE TO THE FACILITIES THAT WE HAVE THERE.

YOU KNOW, WITH THE CELL TOWERS. OKAY. SO IT'S RIGHT ON THE.

YEAH. RIGHT THERE.

SO IT DOESN'T EXCEED THAT FENCE LINE, BUT IT IS CLOSE TO THE CENTER ITSELF, BUT IT FALLS WITHIN THE CURRENT PARK OUTLINE THAT'S THERE.

[00:20:09]

THE SEATING IS A SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION IN NORMAL OR TYPICAL 400 METER TRACK, USUALLY THEY'LL PROVIDE 3,000 SEATS HERE, OR JUST ABOUT 1,500 SEATS, BECAUSE WE COULDN'T FIT ANY MORE IN THERE.

SO THERE'S SOME LIMITATIONS TO THIS SITE. OBVIOUSLY, THE PARKING LOT IS ALSO A LIMITATION HERE.

WITH HAVING 3,000 SEATS, YOU CAN'T REALLY WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH PARKING TO TO PROVIDE.

SO MAYBE IN THE FUTURE, IF WE WANT TO CONSIDER PARKING GARAGE THERE, SOMETHING CAN BE CAN BE THOUGHT THROUGH.

SAME AS THE RESTAURANT FACILITIES IN THE CURRENT BUILDING WILL NOT HANDLE 1,500.

RESIDENTS OR VISITORS PER SE. SO THERE'S, YOU KNOW, ALTHOUGH THE LAYOUT MAY FIT, BE CRUNCHED IN THERE, BUT FACILITY WISE WE'RE LIMITED THERE. SO NONE OF THOSE AMENITIES HAVE BEEN INCLUDED OR INCORPORATED INTO THE EXISTING PROPERTY.

YOU JUST PLACE THE 400 METER TRACK TO SHOW WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE IN THAT EXISTING.

CORRECT. ALL THE WAY TO THE EDGE OF THE BUILDINGS OR THE PROPERTY LINES? CORRECT. OKAY. AND WHAT'S THE TYPICAL IN TERMS OF THE BLEACHERS, YOU SAID.

FOR THIS SIZE OF TRACK, ABOUT 3,000. CORRECT.

AND AND THEY'RE SPLIT 1,500 ON EACH SIDE TO, TO HAVE A COMPETITION BETWEEN TWO DIFFERENT TEAMS. BUT IN THIS PARTICULAR SCENARIO, WE COULDN'T PUT IT ON THE EAST SIDE.

WE HAVE LIMITATIONS THERE. WE COULD PROBABLY PICK A COUPLE IN THERE, BUT IT WILL BE SKEWED DOWN FROM BEING IN THE CENTER OF THE, OF THE OF THE FIELD ITSELF. SO RATHER THAN THE CENTER OF THE FIELD.

CORRECT. OKAY. BUT THIS OPTION DOES YOU KNOW, WE'RE SHOWING A FULL FOOTBALL AND FULL SOCCER FIELD.

RIGHT. IT WILL BE SYNTHETIC TURF. NOW, IN TERMS OF YOU KNOW, NORMAL PLANNING FOR THESE KINDS OF FACILITIES, WHAT WOULD BE THE THE BATHROOM REQUIREMENTS OR OTHER ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS TO GO WITH THIS? IT WILL BE SUBSTANTIAL, MUCH MORE THAN WHAT WE HAVE.

THERE IS CALCULATION IN THE BUILDING CODE, AND TONY KNOWS MORE ABOUT THIS THAN ME, BUT THERE IS CALCULATIONS FOR X AMOUNT OF PEOPLE.

YOU HAVE TO HAVE TO HAVE ENOUGH X AMOUNT OF STALLS IN THERE.

SO THIS PARTICULAR PARKING AND PARKING PARKING THAT'S COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CODE FALLS UNDER THE BUILDING CODE, BUT RESTROOM FACILITIES. YOU KNOW, WE'RE WAY, WAY UNDER THAN WHAT WE HAVE, OR WE TYPICALLY WOULD PROVIDE.

SO, I MEAN, WE DIDN'T PLACE THEM ON THE ON THE EXISTING LAYOUT BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T HAVE SPACE OR BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE SPACE TO THAT LEVEL OF DETAIL. WELL, IT'S IT'S BOTH REALLY.

I MEAN, WE DON'T HAVE SPACE. I MEAN, THE THE ULTIMATE BEST SOLUTION IS TO BUILD A NEW BUILDING.

AND THAT'S AGAIN, WE'RE LIMITED ON THE SPACE HERE.

AND THE PARKING SPACES OBVIOUSLY COULD SEE THERE'S THERE IS NO OTHER PARKING SPACES THAT COULD BE EXPANDED TO. SO THAT'S WHY I WAS, YOU KNOW, THINKING ABOUT THE OPTION IN THE FUTURE PARKING GARAGE.

THAT WOULD BE THE ONLY VIABLE OPTION, BUT THAT'S ANOTHER COUPLE MILLION DOLLARS AS YOU KNOW, PARKING SPACES ARE VERY COSTLY. IS THE FENCE LAYOUT PART OF THE ORIGINAL GRANT PROGRAM OR IS THAT A REQUIREMENT OF THIS? SO THE GRANT DOES ALLOW US OR DOES HAVE FENCE REPLACEMENT IN THERE. IT DIDN'T REALLY DEPICT HOW MUCH FENCE TO BE REPLACED, BUT BECAUSE OF THIS NEW LAYOUT, WE DO HAVE TO REPLACE THE MAJORITY OF THE FENCE.

BECAUSE WE'RE WIDENING OR EXPANDING THE THE LIMITATION OF THE EXISTING SITE.

SO LIKE I SAID, THE, THE, THE GRANT WAS FENCE REPLACEMENT, BUT HERE IT'S NOT A REPLACEMENT.

IT'S CONSTRUCTION OR INSTALLING A NEW FENCE LINE.

YOU FENCE IT IN THE PARKING LOT AND ALL THAT NPC AS WELL.

NO. IT DOESN'T INCLUDE THE PARKING LOT. IT'S JUST THE THE PARK AREA, THE LINE THAT'S AROUND IT IS JUST SHOWING THE PROPERTY LINE THAT WE HAVE.

THAT'S THE PROPERTY LINE? CORRECT. OKAY. [INAUDIBLE] I JUST WANT TO ADD SOFT BORDER ZONING ISSUES.

THE CITY CONTROL THAT PARKING. YOU KNOW, WE CONTROL THAT.

SETBACKS. WE CONTROL THAT. THE ONLY ISSUE AND THAT COMES WITH BUILDINGS AND ADA ISSUES IN TERMS OF THE BATHROOM.

BUT WHEN IT COMES TO ANY ZONING SETBACK AND AND PROBABLY SOME ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES THAT WE MAY HAVE TO GET THE COUNTY TO IF VEGETATION.

BUT OVERALL WE CONTROL MOST OF THE SETBACK ISSUES AND ZONING ISSUES PARKING.

OKAY. IT'S CONTROLLABLE. YES. I DO WANT TO PUT A DISCLAIMER OUT THERE THAT TRACK MEETS USUALLY DONE BY COMMITTEES.

THE COMMITTEE DECIDES WHERE TRACK MEET USUALLY HAPPENS, AND THERE'S A CHECKLIST ON WHERE TRACKS OR WHICH TRACK IS QUALIFIED.

[00:25:04]

AND THE AMENITIES IS A BIG FACTOR IN THERE THAT THE PARKING SPACES, ACCESSIBILITY ABILITIES, FOOD, BEVERAGES AND THINGS LIKE THAT THAT ARE BEING SOLD ON THE FACILITY, THAT'S ALL PART OF THE CHECKLIST. SO USUALLY THE COMMITTEE THAT THAT DECIDES WHERE THE TRACK MEETS HAPPENS OR COMPETITION GAMES HAPPENS THEY GO THROUGH A LIST AND THEY WANT TO MAKE SURE WHATEVER FIELD OR TRACK OR LOCATION THEY CHOOSE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE PROVIDE THE UTMOST FACILITIES TO THE TO PEOPLE WHO VISIT THE PARK.

IF I, IF I HAVE TO INNER CHANNEL THE THE THE MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION AND SO.

NO, I'M ASKING IF IF YOU KNOW, HOW MUCH OF THE EXISTING FACILITIES WE CAN USE TO INCORPORATE INTO THIS NEW DESIGN FOR SOME OF THOSE AMENITIES? WE'LL WE'LL HAVE TO LOOK AT IT MORE IN DETAIL CITY MANAGER.

IF I REMEMBER THE CURRENT BUILDING, I DON'T THINK IT'S MORE THAN 150 OR SO PEOPLE.

SO IF WE'RE PROPOSING 1,500 SEATS. SO WE'RE CURRENT FACILITIES PROBABLY ONLY PROVIDE 10 TO 20% MAXIMUM OF THE PEOPLE THAT WILL BE VISITING THE PARK. SO WE'RE SUBSTANTIALLY UNDER WHAT WOULD BE REQUIRED FROM FACILITIES.

OKAY. SAME THING WITH PARKING. I THINK THE FOR BLEACHERS, IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN, I IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I, SINCE I DESIGNED A A TRACK. I BELIEVE EVERY THREE BLEACHER SEATS EQUATES TO ONE PARKING SPACE.

SO WE'RE, YOU KNOW, WE'RE PROBABLY NEED TRIPLE THE AMOUNT OF PARKING SPACE THAN WHAT WE HAVE, IF NOT, NOT QUADRUPLE. ALSO, I THINK THE SCHOOL IS NEARBY.

I THINK THEY COULD HAVE SHARED PARKING ARRANGEMENT WITH THE SCHOOL SO.

YEAH. YEAH, WE DO DROP OFF AND PICK UP I GUESS THROUGH THAT PARKING LOT FOR SCHOOL AS WELL.

BUT BUT WE SHOULD ALSO NOTE THAT THIS IS A VERY, VERY PRELIMINARY LAYOUT.

CORRECT. CORRECT. THIS IS IN THE CONVERSATION.

RIGHT? THIS IS A SKY LEVEL LAYOUT THAT WE JUST WANT TO SEE IF IT'S THE LAYOUT CAN FIT IN THERE.

IF IT'S PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE.

SO BUT THE DETAIL OF PARKING SPACES AND OBVIOUSLY THE AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC BEING GENERATED TO THIS SITE, IF WE DO DECIDE TO THIS HAS TO BE APPROVED BY DOT AS WELL, BECAUSE UNIVERSITY DRIVE IS A DOT RIGHT OF WAY.

SO THERE'S A LOT OF PLANNING FACTORS. IT HAS TO GO THROUGH THE APPROVAL PROCESS TO BE ALLOWED TO HAVE SUCH A LARGE FACILITY THERE.

OKAY. SO WE'LL WE'LL HAVE THIS CONVERSATION AT THE.

SURE. AND IF I COULD JUST ADD YEAH. SO AS, AS A REQUEST OR QUESTION THAT CAME UP AT THE LAST COMMISSION MEETING WAS JUST ABOUT THE FIELD USAGE AND THE IMPACT ON, ON PARTICIPANTS. SO A FEW OF THE WE DO HAVE QUITE A FEW RENTALS, SOCCER RENTALS CRICKET RENTALS THAT THAT UTILIZE THE SPACE AS WELL AS WE HOST SPECIAL EVENTS THERE. THE SUMMER CAMP UTILIZES THE BASEBALL FIELDS DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS AND SO IMPACTS OPTION A, WHICH IS THE SMALLER TRACK. WE HAVE THE OPTION TO MOVE SPECIAL EVENTS OVER TO THE SPORTS COMPLEX AS WELL AS WELL THE THE FIELD RENTALS COULD STILL UTILIZE THE FIELDS THERE AT TAMARAC PARK, AND THEN WE'D HAVE ONE FIELD, ONE BASEBALL FIELD INSTEAD OF TWO.

ALTHOUGH THE MULTI-PURPOSE IS THE MAJORITY OF WHERE THE PARK IS UTILIZED.

AND UNDER OPTION B WITH THE 400 METER TRACK, AGAIN SPECIAL EVENTS MOVED TO THE SPORTS COMPLEX.

FIELD RENTALS. WE CAN RELOCATE TO THE SPORT COMPLEX AS WELL DURING THE SEASON WHEN THEY'RE NOT BEING UTILIZED BY CITY PROGRAMS. SUMMER CAMP CAN NOW USE TRACK AND FIELD TO PLAY INSTEAD OF THE BASEBALL DIAMONDS.

AND THE SOCCER ACADEMY, WE HAVE TO HAVE SOME MORE DISCUSSIONS WITH THEM.

THERE'D BE LIMITED SPACE WITH THE LARGER FIELD.

SO WE'D HAVE TO SEE WHAT THEY'RE OPEN TO AND WHAT KINDS OF INTEREST THEY WOULD HAVE FOR LIMITED SPACE AND MAYBE CHANGING THEIR SEASONS.

THAT'S ABOUT 300 PARTICIPANTS IN THE PROGRAM.

AND SO WE WILL DISCUSS THESE AS, AS MUSTAFA MENTIONED, THERE'S THERE'S A LITTLE BIT MORE DETAILED FEATURES THAT WE CAN LOOK AT.

BUT, BASED ON THE DISCUSSION OF THE COMMISSION, IF OPTION B IS THE SELECTION, THEN WE CAN FURTHER DRILL DOWN INTO THOSE ITEMS AND COME UP WITH THAT LIST. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. AND THEN WE HAVE ALSO ON THE AGENDA THE DISCUSSION FOLLOW UP CONVERSATION ON THE

[9.b Questions, Discussion and Consensus on the Speed Detection Systems for Enforcement of School Zone Speed Limits Presented by Tanya Sterling, Assistant to the City Manager & BSO Captain Christopher Palamara]

SCHOOL ZONE SPEED, SPEED DETECTION SYSTEMS. AND SO TANYA YOU WANT THE THING? THANK YOU. THANK YOU. TANYA STERLING, ASSISTANT TO THE CITY MANAGER.

[00:30:02]

WE'LL START WITH THE BACKGROUND OF THE ITEM. HB 657 WAS FIRST APPROVED IN APRIL OF 23, AND IT ALLOWS FOR SPEED DETECTION SYSTEM IN SCHOOL ZONES.

THE PROGRAM MUST BE ADOPTED BY AN ORDINANCE, AND THE GOAL IS BASICALLY TO IMPROVE TRAFFIC SAFETY.

SO THE INITIAL DISCUSSION CAME IN JUNE OF 28, 2023, AND THE COMMISSION GAVE CONSENSUS TO IDENTIFY A COMPANY TO CONDUCT A FREE TRAFFIC STUDY. THE VENDOR THAT WAS SELECTED WAS REDS PEED AND THE ITEM WAS PRESENTED IN OCTOBER OF 23.

THE STUDY SHOWED OVER 100 VIOLATIONS FOR FOUR LOCATIONS IN SEPTEMBER OF 23, AND THE CONSENSUS HERE WAS TO GO BACK AND GATHER AN ACCIDENT REPORT, AS WELL AS TO GET COMMUNITY FEEDBACK.

SINCE THEN, THE DATA COLLECTION EFFORTS FROM STAFF INCLUDED A FOLLOW UP TRAFFIC STUDY BSO ACCIDENT REPORT WAS REQUESTED, AND WE ALSO CONDUCTED A COMMUNITY SURVEY. SO BEFORE WE GET INTO THE DATA, IT'S FIRST IMPORTANT TO LOOK AT THE STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS AS IT RELATES TO SPEED ENFORCEMENT OPTIONS. AND THE BILL ALLOWS FOR A MORNING ENFORCEMENT, WHICH IS ABOUT AN HOUR IN THE MORNING OR AN ALL DAY ENFORCEMENT, WHICH IS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE SCHOOL DAY. OR YOU CAN DO AN AFTERNOON ENFORCEMENT, WHICH IS AN HOUR AT THE END OF THE SCHOOL SESSION.

OTHER REQUIREMENTS INCLUDE VIOLATIONS OCCUR AT TEN MILES OVER THE SPEED LIMIT.

THE PROGRAM MUST FOLLOW DOT GUIDELINES. THERE HAS TO BE A 30 DAY AWARENESS CAMPAIGN.

THE PROGRAM REQUIRES REPORTS, CONTRACTS AND RENEWALS TO BE HELD AS A CITY COUNCIL MEETING ANNUALLY.

AND ALL FOOTAGE MUST BE DELETED WITHIN 90 DAYS.

AND THE SYSTEM REQUIRES AN INDEPENDENT PERFORMANCE VERIFICATION TO TEST FOR ACCURACY.
