Quasi-Judicial Hearings
Please be advised that the following items on the Council agenda are quasi-judicial in nature. All witnesses who will testify on any item
in this portion of the Agenda will be sworn. Participants who are members of the general public need not be sworn and will not be
subject to cross-examination if they are not sworn. However, the Council shall not assign un-sworn testimony the same weight or
credibility as sworn testimony in its deliberations.
The applicant has the burden of proof. After the applicant’s concluding remarks, the hearing will be closed and no additional testimony,
material or argument will be allowed unless the Council chooses to request additional testimony. The members of the Town Council
will then deliberate.
All evidence relied upon by reasonably prudent persons in the conduct of their affairs may be considered in these proceedings, regardless
of whether such evidence would be admissible in a court. Hearsay evidence may supplement or explain other evidence, but shall not
alone support a conclusion unless it would be admissible over objection in court. The material in the Town Council agenda will be
considered as evidence without authentication.
Anyone representing an organization must present written evidence of his or her authority to speak on behalf of the organization in
regard to the matter under consideration. Each person who appears during a public hearing shall identify himself or herself and give
their address, and if appearing on behalf of an organization state the name and mailing address of the organization. The Council may,
on its own motion or at the request of any person, continue the hearing to a fixed date, time and place.
No notice shall be required if a hearing is continued to a fixed date, time and place. Any Applicant shall have the right to request and
be granted one continuance; however, all subsequent continuance shall be granted at the discretion of the Council and only upon good
cause shown.

COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
TO:
Honorable Mayor Nelson and Town Council
THRU:
Andy Berns, Town Administrator
FROM:
The Mellgren Planning Group
DATE:
November 5, 2013
SUBJECT:
BELLA ACRE ESTATES PLAT DELEGATION REQUEST
APPLICATION NO. DE-018-13
Recommendation
1. The Council could choose to deny this application finding that the applicant has
failed to show by competent substantial evidence that they have met the
requirements of the ULDC.
2. The Council could choose to approve this item finding that the applicant has shown
by competent substantial evidence that they have met the requirements of the
ULDC.
3. The Council could table this item to seek additional information.
4. The Council could choose to approve this item with conditions, such as the
conditions recommended in the staff report.
Issue
The applicant is seeking approval to make the following modifications to the approved
Bella Acre Estates Plat and associated conditions of approval:
1. Approval to eliminate the requirement for a left turn lane on SW 172nd Avenue.
The Town’s speed limit reduction on SW 172nd no longer mandates construction
of a turn lane.
2. Approval for a temporary opening in the Non Vehicular Access Line along SW
172nd Avenue to allow for a temporary driveway to provide initial access to the
construction/sales office trailer. This request is associated with accompanying
site plan modification requests (SP-54-13) for a construction/sales office trailer,
1
and a temporary driveway onto SW 172nd Avenue until the internal subdivision
street is completed and a new access to the trailer is provided from same.
Background
The Bella Acre Estates Plat was approved by Town Council in December, 2005 for eight
(8) homes on 8.7 acres. The original developer encountered financial difficulty and
essentially abandoned the project before constructing the internal street, drainage
infrastructure and other improvements. A single residence was built to approximately
90 percent completion, but cannot be issued a Certificate of Occupancy without the
improvements first being completed. The Town placed several liens on the property for
unpaid code enforcement fines that accrued under previous owners, all of which the
new owner has paid.

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
The Town Council approved the Bella Ranch Estates Plat on December 8, 2005, via
Resolution No. 2006-020. The plat consists of eight (8) single-family residential lots
fronting a private cul-de-sac street situated on 8.72 acres. The plat is located along the
east side of SW 172nd Avenue, approximately 300 feet south of SW 49th Street.
Site Plan Amendment Application No. SP-54-13 accompanies this request.
PLAT MODIFICATION REQUESTS
The petitioner is requesting a modifications to the recorded plat and a modification to a
condition of plat approval, as follows.
Request 1. The first request is to eliminate the requirement for constructing a left
turn lane into the development. The turn lane was a requirement of Broward County as
a condition of plat approval because the speed limit at that time was 35 miles per hour
1
or greater. Subsequent to plat approval, the Town reduced the speed limit on SW
172nd Avenue to 30 miles per hour and added traffic calming devices. The Broward
County Land Development Code does not require left turn lane on a Trafficways with a
speed limit of less than 35 mile per hour. The applicant is requesting that the Town
Council pass a resolution stating that it has no objection to the removal of the left turn
lane. The Broward County Commission must ultimately authorize the elimination of the
turn lane requirement.
Request 2. The second request is to modify the Non-Vehicular Access Line
(NVAL) along SW 172nd Avenue on a temporary basis to allow for a driveway that
serves a construction and sales trailer that is the subject of site plan modification
request Application No. SP-54-13. Once the internal subdivision street is constructed,
the developer will be required to remove this temporary driveway, pursuant to the staff
recommendation for approval of Application No. SP-54-13. Staff has no objection to
this request.
RECOMMENDATION
1. The Council could choose to deny this application finding that the applicant has failed
to show by competent substantial evidence that they have met the requirements of
the ULDC.
2. The Council could choose to approve this item finding that the applicant has shown
by competent substantial evidence that they have met the requirements of the
ULDC.
3. The Council could table this item to seek additional information.
4. The Council could choose to approve this item with conditions such as:
a) The temporary NVAL opening shall expire March 31, 2015.
b) Applicant shall pay to the Town of Southwest Ranches an amount equal to the
total expenses incurred by the Town in the processing and finalizing of this site
plan, including, but may not be limited to, expenses for engineering, planning,
legal, advertising, five (5) percent administrative fee, and any related expenses
that the Town has or will incur as a direct cost of this application.

COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
TO:
Honorable Mayor Nelson and Town Council
THRU:
Andy Berns, Town Administrator
FROM:
The Mellgren Planning Group
DATE:
November 5, 2013
SUBJECT:
RESERVE AT THE RANCHES, A.K.A. BELLA ACRE ESTATES SITE
PLAN MODIFICATION APPLICATION SP-054-13
Recommendation
1. The Council could choose to deny this application finding that the applicant has
failed to show by competent substantial evidence that they have met the
requirements of the ULDC.
2. The Council could choose to approve this item finding that the applicant has shown
by competent substantial evidence that they have met the requirements of the
ULDC.
3. The Council could table this item to seek additional information.
4. The Council could choose to approve this item with conditions, such as the
conditions recommended in the staff report.
Issue
The applicant is seeking approval to make the following minor modifications to the
approved Bella Acre Estates site plan:
1. Approval of a temporary construction and sales office trailer on Lot 1.
2. Approval to shift the perimeter fence and landscaping along SW 172nd Avenue
approximately 12 feet to the west (i.e. closer to SW 172nd Avenue), instead of
the current 17-foot setback.
3. Slightly enlarge the entrance feature by increasing the overall height from five
(5) feet to six (6) feet.
1
4. Change the name of the street within the subdivision from “Bella Drive” to
“Reserve Court” to reflect the new name of the community, “The Reserve at the
Ranches.”
Background
The Bella Acre Estates site plan was approved by Town Council in December, 2007 for
eight (8) homes on 8.7 acres. The original developer encountered financial difficulty
and essentially abandoned the project before constructing the internal street, drainage
infrastructure and other improvements. A single residence was built to approximately
90 percent completion, but cannot be issued a Certificate of Occupancy without the
improvements first being completed. The Town placed several liens on the property for
unpaid code enforcement fines that accrued under previous owners, all of which the
current owners have paid.

east side of SW 172nd Avenue, approximately 300 feet south of SW 49th Street.
Construction of one (1) home on Lot 6 commenced in 2008 under the original developer.
Although the home is substantially complete, the Town has withheld issuing a Certificate of
Occupancy because the original developer abandoned the project and did not undertake
construction of Bella Drive and other improvements that are required pursuant to the site
plan and plat approvals. The lender foreclosed on the mortgage in January, 2009, and
the property changed hands twice before being acquired by the current owner.
SITE PLAN MODIFICATION REQUESTS
The petitioner is requesting four (4) modifications to the approved site plan.
1
Request 1. The first request is to place a temporary construction office/sales trailer
with parking facility and landscaping on Lot 1 (see attached temporary trailer location and
landscaping plan).
Section 045-030 of the Unified Land Development Code (ULDC)
permits a temporary trailer during the construction of residential subdivisions of two (2) or
more lots. The prerequisites for placement of the trailer and timeframe for removal of the
trailer are also governed by this section, and are listed as conditions of approval at the end
of this report. The proposed trailer location has a 114-foot setback from SW 172nd Avenue
and 91 feet from the adjacent property to the north. Both setbacks exceed the minimum
requirements of 50 feet and 25 feet, respectively. Landscaping for the trailer area will
include 15 Cuban Royal Palms, 5 Live Oaks, and 2 Date Palms. The trailer will be
screened from SW 172nd Avenue by three rows of trees and a hedge that will be part of the
permanent landscaping for the development.
The applicant has also filed an accompanying application to amend the Non-Vehicular
Access Line (NVAL) on the plat to allow the temporary driveway opening onto SW 172 nd
Avenue. Upon construction of the internal street for the subdivision, the developer will
remove the driveway from SW 172nd Avenue and open a new, temporary driveway onto
the internal street. Sales center signage for the trailer is regulated by ULDC Section 070110, which allows one (1) sign not more than seven (7) feet in height and 32 square feet in
area. The proposed sales center signage is attached.
Request 2. The second request is to relocate the future five (5)-foot perimeter
fence closer to the property line along SW 172nd Avenue. The approved site plan shows
the portion of the fence north of the subdivision entrance encroaching into the side yard of
Lot 1, which although a corner lot, is a standard-sized lot that is not wider than the interior
lots. The approved fence location is seventeen (17) feet from the SW 172nd Avenue rightof-way, to the rear of a perimeter hedge and Live Oak Trees. The proposed modification
would relocate the fence, hedge and ten (10) Live Oak Trees approximately ten to twelve
(10-12) feet to the west. The fence and landscaping relocation plan is attached.
It is noted that the fence was originally set back seventeen (17) feet from the 172nd Avenue
right-of-way in order to line up with the fence and landscaping on the south side of the
entrance drive, where the property line is twelve (12) feet further east to accommodate a
possible right turn lane. The right turn lane is no longer being required by Broward
County. The relocated fence and landscaping will not in any way interfere with the SW
172nd Avenue multi-use trail and associated landscaping within the right-of-way, and the
Live Oaks will maintain close to thirty (30) feet of separation from power lines in the rightof-way, part of which the developer will move underground.
Request 3. The third request is to slightly enlarge the portion of the entrance
feature that can be used for signage, from three (3) feet in height to four (4) feet in height
in order to better accommodate the new name of the development in two (2) lines of copy.
The proposed modification will still result in a smaller sign area than permitted by the
Town’s ULDC. The proposed entrance feature elevation is attached.
2
Request 4. The final request is to change the name of the internal street from Bella
Drive to Reserve Court.

this condition with the prescribed period shall render the approval of SP-054-13
null and void.
a. The Town may issue a building permit for the completion of the existing
dwelling on Lot 6, provided that the Town will not issue a Certificate of
Occupancy until the aforementioned improvements have been completed
and approved by the Town. If the Florida Building Code has changed since

compliance with today’s standards..;
Trailer and temporary driveways
2. Obtain a building permit for completion of the existing single-family dwelling
prior to issuance of the building permit for the construction/sales trailer.
3. Remove the existing asphalt driveway at north end of the property prior to
issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the trailer.
4. Install all required perimeter and street landscaping shown on the approved site
plan along SW 172nd Avenue within 120 calendar days of the date the building
permit is issued for the trailer. Prior to issuance of a building permit for the

Driveway shall be removed the earlier of March 31, 2015, or within thirty (30)
calendar days after the trailer site has approved driveway access from the
completed internal street, whichever is sooner.

7. Developer shall provide final HOA documents to the Town Attorney for review
and approval prior to recordation.
8. Pursuant to an unfulfilled condition of the original site plan approval, owner shall

COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
TO:
Honorable Mayor Nelson and Town Council
THRU:
Andy Berns, Town Administrator
FROM:
Martin D. Sherwood, CPA, CGMA, CGFO
Town Financial Administrator
DATE:
November 14, 2013
SUBJECT:
FY 2012 / 2013 Year-end Budget Adjustment
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Town Council adopt the attached resolution adjusting the FY
12/13 Town Budget as presented to prevent Departmental expenditures from exceeding
budgeted approved Departmental appropriations.
Background/Issue
Each municipality within the State of Florida is required by State Statute to adopt a
balanced budget through a formal public process and to not exceed the appropriations
adopted through that process. For the Town of Southwest Ranches, the level for
assessing expenditures and appropriations is at the Fund and Departmental levels.
None of the Towns five funds (General, Transportation, Capital Projects, Debt Service
or Solid Waste) had expenditures that exceeded their adopted budget which would
result in a violation of State Statute. Additionally, during this first full fiscal year that a
formal budget was ratified, the Southwest Ranches Volunteer Fire Rescue, Inc. (a
financial reporting component unit) also did not exceed its adopted budget.
However, while none of the funds exceeded budget, a couple of the individual
Departments did exceed their approved budgets. For each of those Departments the
Town, in accordance with its charter, needs to adjust the impacted departmental
budgets. Adoption of the attached resolution and exhibit A “cleans up” the FY 12/13
budget for Town charter compliance.
Fiscal Impact/Analysis
Four of the five Town funds need no revision as no allocation centers (Departments)
exceeded budget. The only fund which needs to be addressed is the General Fund. In
that fund, two departments exceeded their appropriations. Those departments are: 1)
Town Attorney, 2) Building - Permitting Services. The Town Attorney’s expenditures
were exceeded due to unusual, extraordinary and unanticipated litigation on behalf of
the Town ($53,400). The Building - Permitting Services Department expenditures were
primarily exceeded due to regulatory and contractual costs associated with additional
permitting ($29,350). These expenses are offset by increased revenues received.
Fortunately, most revenue collected and accounts receivables pertaining to revenues
also exceeded budgetary expectations. By adjusting for these unexpected increases or
decreases in advalorum taxes ($14,869), utility taxes ($23,389), franchise fees
($78,001), communication services taxes ($13,221), building – permitting fees
($89,674), In-house engineering fees ($19,033), and code enforcement recoveries
($9,852), tree inventory ($138,848), the above mentioned departmental expenditures
are balanced and the General Fund unassigned Fund Balance (reserves) are left intact.
Therefore, this resolution increases the current total budget of the General Fund
for Fiscal Year 2012 / 2013 by $82,750 without the need to use any General Fund
unassigned Fund Balance (reserves).
On a final note, unrelated to the budgeting resolution presented above, the unaudited
General Fund net change in fund balance (a/k/a: surplus/excess of revenues over
expenditures/increase to reserves) is in excess of $450,000 as of agenda date.
