Legally advertised Sun-Sentinel - March 25, 2000
Mayor Capellini opened the hearing to the public.
Susan Motley, attorney with Ruden, McCloskey, et al, representing Check Cashing Stores' president, Paul Hauser, spoke. Mr. Hauser had a Check Cashing Store just east of the FEC railroad and wants to move it one block west to a new plaza. In October, he sent a letter asking the city if he could place the business in the new plaza. He received a letter stating that someone would be in touch with him. After a time, Mr. Hauser heard nothing and decided it would be safe to buy the property for his store. At the time of the purchase, the property was zoned B1. If the ordinance passes, Mr. Hauser will not be able to build his store on this property, because check cashing stores will be prohibited in B1 zoning districts. Ms. Motley asked the Commission if a vested rights determination could be made for this particular site. Mr. Hauser knows that the City expects the building to look attractive and he will work with staff to accomplish that.
Mr. Paul Hauser reiterated his comments from the March 21st meeting by stating that he wanted the Commission to do what was fair.
Vice Mayor Shaddow asked what the legalities were regarding vested rights.
Assistant City Attorney Charles Seamen advised that the City Commission could limit its motion to just this business and the uniqueness of the situation.
Commissioner Clarke-Reed stated that it was an unfortunate situation because another check cashing store would be just a block away from Mr. Hauser's. Commissioner Clarke-Reed asked if he had been told there was zoning in progress.
Mr. Ferguson responded that Mr. Hauser made an inquiry prior to this change in the code. Zoning was in progress, but at that time, this particular change had not been made.
Commissioner Trinchitella added that if there are two stores close together, one will have to go due to lack of business.
Commissioner Noland made a motion to close the public hearing on the check cashing store matter only. The motion was seconded by Vice Mayor Shaddow Roll call showed: YEAS: Commissioner Clarke-Reed, Commissioner Noland Commissioner Trinchitella, Vice Mayor Shaddow, and Mayor Capellini. NAYS: None.
Mayor Capellini abstained from the final vote because he had done some work for Mr. Hauser.
Motion to approve the vested rights determination made by Commissioner Trinchitella was seconded by Commissioner Noland. Roll call showed: YEAS: Commissioner Noland Commissioner Trinchitella, Vice Mayor Shaddow. NAYS: Commissioner Clarke-Reed.

Roll call showed: YEAS: Commissioner Clarke-Reed, Commissioner Noland Commissioner Trinchitella, Vice Mayor Shaddow, and Mayor Capellini. NAYS: None.
Greg Rogers, Chairman, Planning and Zoning Board, said that the board reviewed the changes and had a number of amendments that they would like to have considered. Mr. Rogers referred the Commission to a memo in their back up pertaining to the proposed amendments.
After a brief review of a few of the proposed amendments, Mayor Capellini suggested that the City Commission review all of the amendments on their own and revisit the proposed amendments at a later date.
Maureen Kenny approached the dais to concur with Mr. Rogers statement about the importance of reviewing the Planning and Zoning Board's recommendations.

QUASI-JUDICIAL HEARINGS
APPLICATION 99-B3-80 AND CASE NO. 1681 BY JASON BIBI BY LAWRENCE KRAMER
Mayor Capellini advised this was the time and place scheduled for a public hearing on the following:
Application 99-B3-80 and Case No. 1681 by Jason Bibi by Lawrence Kramer.
To construct an automotive repair/service and general business facility consisting of two buildings totaling 14,046 square feet; AND seeking conditional use approval per Section 98-55(c)(1) of the Deerfield Beach Land Development Code in order to continue the existing automobile repair shop in a new building; AND seeking a variance from Section 98-55(c) of the Deerfield Beach Land Development Code for said conditional use to be on property which is less than 100 feet from residentially-zoned property. The proposed location abuts residentially-zoned property (RM-15) at 2573 West Hillsboro Boulevard.
Legally advertised Sun-Sentinel - March 26, 2000
Mr. Ferguson explained that this application was originally before the City Commission on January 25, 2000 and the application was remanded back to Planning and Zoning Board for their review and consideration. On March 2, 2000 the Planning and Zoning Board by a vote of 4 to 3 recommended denial. The applicant wants to remove the existing building and build two new ones.
Dick Coker, representing the applicant along with Larry Kramer the architect, passed out photographs of the site as it is now. The applicant wants to put in new facility and construct a new showroom. Mr. Coker stated the issue was not if this type of business was allowed to operate in this zoning district, but whether the business would be in a new building or the existing building. He continued that the other issue is that a conditional use must be at least 100 feet from the residential property line. He said the business is, but the code looks at the property line of the parcel on which the conditional use is housed, not where the business itself is located. He said the second building would be a buffer between the business and the residential area.
Harold Stein, president of the Master Association of Deer Creek, said that the City Commission should not place businesses of this nature on Hillsboro Boulevard.
A motion to close the public hearing was made by Commissioner Noland was seconded by Vice Mayor Shaddow. Roll call showed: YEAS: Commissioner Clarke-Reed, Commissioner Noland Commissioner Trinchitella, Vice Mayor Shaddow, and Mayor Capellini. NAYS: None.
Larry Kramer, architect, said the building was designed for use as a showroom/retail commercial use. It is a high-end design structure. The building did not have one square foot more than the existing use.
Mayor Capellini said that car repair shops were not warranted on Hillsboro Boulevard.
Vice Mayor Shaddow agreed.
Mayor Capellini said that garages that abut a residential area would be unpleasant.
A motion to deny all three items was made by Commissioner Trinchitella and seconded by Commissioner Noland. Roll call showed: YEAS: Commissioner Clarke-Reed, Commissioner Noland Commissioner Trinchitella, Vice Mayor Shaddow, and Mayor Capellini. NAYS: None.
CASE NO. 1708 AND CHANGE OF USE, ARVIDA REAL ESTATE SERVICES BY DAVID SIEGEL
Mayor Capellini advised this was the time and place scheduled for a public hearing on the following:

Resolution 2000/061
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DEERFIELD BEACH AUTHORIZING THE PROPER CITY OFFICIALS TO ENTER INTO A CONTRACT WITH GIANNETTI CONTRACTING CORPORATION, FOR PROJECT NO. 10972-P, FOR THE COVE RIGHT-OF-WAY IMPROVEMENTS FOR THE CONTRACT PRICE OF $671,499.00, AND SPECIFYING THE FUNDS THEREFORE
The money would be taken from the 1993 bond issue for payment of this work.
Commissioner Clarke-Reed asked if this was the only item not covered yet by the 1993 bond issue.
City Manager Deetjen said these were ongoing improvements. There is still a balance in the account and the city is upgrading sewer and water services in neighborhoods.
Commissioner Clarke-Reed restated her question by asking if this was on the 1993 bond issue for the Cove area.
City Manager Deetjen replied that it was an all encompassing bond issue to make improvements throughout the community.
Vice Mayor Shaddow added that at the time, the Commission decided to make it all encompassing because they were unsure of the exact needs within the community and wanted the flexibility to respond as needed.
City Manager Deetjen referred to a map in the agenda packets which highlighted the areas to be repaired by Gianetti Contracting Corporation. He added that in these areas there never was drainage, but it is now necessary.
Commissioner Clarke-Reed asked why the money from the CRA would not be used in the Cove neighborhood.
City Manager Deetjen advised that the Cove neighborhood was outside the CRA, but within the CRA, the city would use tax increment financing.
Vice Mayor Shaddow stated that the northwest section of District 2 was improved at the same time Deer Run was improved. She recommended that Commissioners Trinchitella and Clarke-Reed meet with the city manager to discuss their district's outstanding needs.
Motion to approve made by Vice Mayor Shaddow was seconded by Commissioner Noland. Roll call showed: YEAS: Commissioner Clarke-Reed, Commissioner Noland Commissioner Trinchitella, Vice Mayor Shaddow, and Mayor Capellini. NAYS: None.
CONTRACT WITH SCHLUMBERGER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SERVICES.

Resolution 2000/062
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DEERFIELD BEACH AUTHORIZING THE PROPER CITY OFFICIALS TO ENTER INTO A CONTRACT WITH SCHLUMBERGER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SERVICES, INC. FOR THE PURCHASE OF NEPTUNE WATER METERS, PURSUANT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE CITY OF POMPANO BEACH BID #H-14-00, FOR A TOTAL COST OF $123,500.00, AND SPECIFYING THE FUNDS THEREFORE
City Manager Deetjen explained that this was also an annual, ongoing project based on need.
Motion to approve made by Commissioner Noland was seconded by Vice Mayor Shaddow. Roll call showed: YEAS: Commissioner Clarke-Reed, Commissioner Noland Commissioner Trinchitella, Vice Mayor Shaddow, and Mayor Capellini. NAYS: None.
REORGANIZATION OF RISK MANAGEMENT, FACILITIES MAINTENANCE, HAZARD MITIGATION, AND BUILDING SERVICES
City Manager Deetjen described the national search for a prospective candidate for Risk Manager. The individual selected was Philip Hagen, from Georgetown University. He has a master's degree from George Washington University. City Manager Deetjen recommended that Facilities Maintenance, Risk Management, Hazard Mitigation and the Building and Inspection Services be combined into one department because of the commonality of risk and prevention.
Mayor Capellini said he did not feel there was a need to do national searches for candidates. He did not support the Building and Inspection Services (BIS) to be combined with the other departments as the BIS is one of the best in South Florida. Mayor Capellini continued that he did not think anyone from outside South Florida would be able to take over the complex responsibilities and regulations of BIS.
Vice Mayor Shaddow countered that it was not a question of the BIS being a good division or not, but that we have a candidate who is quite capable. It is a question of management and location.
Commissioner Trinchitella asked when the BIS switched to Fire/Rescue.
City Manager Deetjen replied two years ago.
Commissioner Trinchitella said by his own admission, the City Manager agreed that the BIS was a good division. Commissioner Trinchitella continued that it would hurt the morale, accountability and continuity of the division to move them again so quickly.
Vice Mayor Shaddow said the problem now is accountability and who they need to be accountable to. At the time of the change of BIS to Fire/Rescue, the city thought that the building in the city was waning. With the CRA and building boom, they need to be accountable to someone closer.
Commissioner Clarke-Reed asked if Fire/Rescue had too much to do.
City Manager Deetjen said that he wanted Fire/Rescue to concentrate on their core competencies. He is charged with bringing in the best people for the organization, and sometimes those people happen to come from different geographical areas.
Mayor Capellini commented that the building department should not go to a new director at this time. Things are working well and should not be changed.
Vice Mayor Shaddow replied that they are professionals and would be able to handle the change. Prepare the budget with this change as a consideration.
Motion to approve the reorganization less the Division of Building and Inspection Services made by Vice Mayor Shaddow was seconded by Commissioner Trinchitella. Roll call showed: YEAS: Commissioner Clarke-Reed, Commissioner Noland Commissioner Trinchitella, Vice Mayor Shaddow, and Mayor Capellini. NAYS: None.
Vice Mayor Shaddow left the chamber at 9:08 P.M.
REORGANIZATION OF HUMAN RESOURCES AND CITY CLERK'S OFFICE
City Manager Deetjen discussed the need to have a Division of Information Services under the Department of Human Resources. With the new cable station and growing needs of the internet, it would be better to have an individual dedicated to this. The person would be taken from the staff of the City Clerk's Office.
The City Commission made an informal decision not to discuss the matter at this time.
