CITY COMMISSION AGENDA ITEM REPORT
DATE OF COMMISSION MEETING – May 26, 2015
AGENDA ITEM NO. - ________
PREPARED BY – Frank DiPaolo, Finance Director
SUBJECT:
1.
DIRECTOR APPROVAL - ________
ADMINISTRATOR APPROVAL - ________
Setting a date for the FY 2015-2016 Budget Workshop, setting dates and times for
September City Commission meetings and budget public hearings, and setting a date
and time for the Fire Protection Special Assessment public hearing and the Stormwater
Utility Special Assessment public hearing.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
A budget workshop has traditionally been held immediately preceding the first City Commission
meeting in June, and, if necessary, the workshop has reconvened at the conclusion of the City
Commission meeting. The first City Commission meeting in June is set for Tuesday, June 9th.
Florida Statute 200.065(e)2 requires that "hearing dates scheduled by the County Commission
and School Board shall not be utilized by any other Taxing Authority within the County for its
public hearings." We have been notified by the Broward County Property Appraiser's office that
the dates of September 10th and September 17th will be utilized by the Broward County
Commission. The School Board will hold their second public hearing on September 16th. The
Broward County Property Appraiser’s office advised that the earliest date for the special
assessment hearings would be September 11th. Pursuant to state law, the assessment rolls must be
certified by September 15th of each year. Further, budget hearings must occur after 5:00 pm.
It has been the practice of the City to change the regularly scheduled September City Commission
meeting dates to coincide with our budget hearings.
2.
FINDINGS/CURRENT ACTIVITY
Budget Workshop: Set a time and date for a budget workshop to be held in June. City
Administration recommends that the workshop be held prior to the regular Commission meeting
on June 9th and to begin the workshop at 5:30 p.m. The proposed budget will be distributed to
each Commissioner on June 5th following receipt of the property tax roll estimate on June 1st.
Budget and Millage Hearings: City Code Section 2-83 requires that when meeting dates are
changed, an ad announcing the change be published at least three days prior to such meeting. The
ad includes the purpose for the change of dates. Administration recommends that the first budget
public hearing be held on Monday, September 14th at 7:30 p.m. as part of a rescheduled regular
Commission meeting. The second budget public hearing must be advertised within 15 days of the
first hearing, to occur 2-5 days after the advertisement. Administration recommends that the
second hearing be held on Monday, September 28th at 7:30 p.m. as part of a rescheduled regular
Commission meeting that would normally have been held on Tuesday, September 22nd.
Agenda
Assessment Hearings: Due to the schedule for the “Truth in Millage” (TRIM) notice to be sent
by the Broward County Property Appraiser's office, Monday, September 14th is the logical date
that the Fire Protection Special Assessment and Stormwater Utility Special Assessment public
hearings can be held in conjunction with the rescheduled City Commission meeting date. A time
to conduct this meeting must be set by the City Commission. Administration recommends the
public hearings be held at 7:30 p.m. or soon thereafter.

SUBJECT:

Consider declaring a 2002 Ford F-150 as surplus property.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
The City Commission has discretion to classify as surplus any of its property, which property is
not otherwise lawfully disposed of, that is obsolete, or the continued use of which is
uneconomical or inefficient.
2.
FINDINGS/CURRENT ACTIVITY

that are not economically feasible to make. The vehicle currently has over 65,000 miles with a
current estimated NADA auction value of $3,400 (in operational condition). I am requesting
authorization to declare the 2002 Ford F-150 as surplus property.
