Preference may be given to vendors submitting a certification with their bid/proposal
certifying they have a drug-free workplace in accordance with Section 287.087, Florida
Statutes. This requirement affects all public entities of the State and becomes effective
January 1, 1991. The special condition is as follows:
IDENTICAL TIE PROPOSALS - Preference may be given to businesses with drug-free
workplace programs. Whenever two or more proposals that are equal with respect to
price, quality, and service are received by the State or by any political subdivision for the
procurement of commodities or contractual services, a bid received from a business that
certifies that it has implemented a drug-free workplace program shall be given
preference in the award process. Established procedures for processing tie proposals
will be followed if none of the tied vendors have a drug-free workplace program. In order
to have a drug-free workplace program, a business shall:
Publish a statement notifying employees that the unlawful manufacture, distribution,
dispensing, possession, or use of a controlled substance is prohibited in the workplace
and specifying the actions that will be taken against employees for violations of such
prohibition.
Inform employees about the dangers of drug abuse in the workplace, the business’s
policy of maintaining a drug-free workplace, any available drug counseling,
rehabilitation, and employee assistance programs, and the penalties that may be
imposed upon employees for drug abuse violations.
Give each employee engaged in providing the commodities or contractual services that
are under bid a copy of the statement specified in subsection (1).
In the statement specified in subsection (1), notify the employees that, as a condition of
working on the commodities or contractual services that are under bid, the employee
will abide by the terms of the statement and will notify the employer of any conviction of,
or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, any violation of chapter 893 or of any controlled
substance law of the United States or any state, for a violation occurring in the
workplace no later that five (5) days after each conviction.
Impose a section on, or require the satisfactory participation in a drug abuse assistance
or rehabilitation program if such is available in the employee's community, by any
employee who is so convicted.
Make a good faith effort to continue to maintain a drug-free workplace through
implementation of this section. As the person authorized to sign the statement, I certify
that this form complies fully with the above requirements.

responsibility to indemnify.
City reserves the right to select its own legal counsel to conduct any defense in any such

any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, sex, religion, age,

payments, Federal Insurance Contribution Act, the Social Security Act, the Federal
Unemployment Tax Act, the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the State
Worker's Compensation Act, and the State Unemployment Insurance law. The

means of carrying out Consultant’s activities and responsibilities hereunder provided,
further that administrative procedures applicable to services rendered under this
Agreement shall be those of Consultant, which policies of Consultant shall not conflict
with City, State, or United States policies, rules or regulations relating to the use of
Consultant’s funds provided for herein. The Consultant agrees that it is a separate and
independent enterprise from the City, that it had full opportunity to find other business,
that it has made its own investment in its business, and that it will utilize a high level of
skill necessary to perform the work. This Agreement shall not be construed as creating
any joint employment relationship between the Consultant and the City and the City will
not be liable for any obligation incurred by Consultant, including but not limited to unpaid
minimum wages and/or overtime premiums.

Consultant shall not transfer or assign the performance required by this Agreement
without the prior consent of the City. This Agreement, or any portion thereof, shall not

delays in or failure of performance shall be due to Uncontrollable Forces, the effect of

The term "Uncontrollable Forces" shall mean any event which results in the prevention or
delay of performance by a party of its obligations under this Agreement and which is
beyond the reasonable control of the nonperforming party. It includes, but is not limited to

and governmental actions.
Neither party shall, however, be excused from performance if nonperformance is due to
forces, which are preventable, removable, or remediable, and which the nonperforming
party could have, with the exercise of reasonable diligence, prevented, removed, or
remedied with reasonable dispatch. The nonperforming party shall, within a reasonable
time of being prevented or delayed from performance by an uncontrollable force, give
written notice to the other party describing the circumstances and uncontrollable forces
preventing continued performance of the obligations of this Agreement.

shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the
validity or enforceability of such provisions in any other jurisdiction. The nonenforcement of any provision by either party shall not constitute a waiver of that
provision nor shall it affect the enforceability of that provision or of the remainder of this
Agreement.

City of Tamarac
BUILDING DEPARTMENT PROFILE:
While there has been an aggressive amount of new development over the past five to ten years, the City
is currently approximately 99% built out at this time. It is anticipated that the number of new
construction/development permits will significantly decline over the next few years, and construction
activity will mainly be focused on re-development of existing sites, land-use changes, or remodeling,
repair and maintenance of existing structures.
In Fiscal Year 2014, the annual budget of the City of Tamarac Building Department is approximately $2.5
million annually. Current Building Department Permit Fees account for approximately $2.6 million in
annual revenues on average. Currently, permit fees are used to fund Building Division salaries and
operating expenses.
In 1997, the Building Permit Fee Schedule underwent a comprehensive review and update. Since that
time there have been two (2) minor revisions to address specific items which were previously not included
in the fee schedule or to adjust single issues requiring reassessment.
In late 2005, a new fee schedule was adopted, with fees based on an assessment by Building Division
staff. This assessment attempted to match the time and effort (cost) associated with the various types of
services provided with the corresponding fee to be charged for the utilization of the service. The new
schedule was also intended to account for the changing need for services anticipated as the City nears
build out, in order to help ensure that the fees charged for the various types of services provided are
funding an equitable share of the associated cost of service well into the foreseeable future.
As the City approaches build out, it becomes increasingly more important to ensure that the services
provided to the community, through the building permitting and inspection process, generate fees
proportional to the cost of service provision in order to minimize the dependence on the City’s General
Revenue Fund. To validate and ensure the integrity of the current fee schedule, the City Commission has
directed staff to obtain a professional external review of the existing schedule, as well as existing cost
data.
BUILDING DEPARTMENT SCHEDULE OF PERMIT FEES:
SECTION I: As set forth in Section 105 of the Broward County Amendments to the 2010 Florida Building
Code, it is unlawful for any person, firm, or corporation to fail to acquire a proper permit prior to the
commencement of any construction, alteration, or repair on or within private property, and such act is
punishable as provided in Section 1 - 13 of the Tamarac City Code.
SECTION II: In the event of an emergency requiring immediate repairs a person or firm may proceed
with such repairs; provided however, an application for the permit and the payment of appropriate fees
are made during the first succeeding business day of the City Building Department. Failure to do so may
be subject to a penalty for commencing work without a permit as provided in Section B #18 of this fee
schedule.
SECTION III: All permits for new construction, including permits for building, alterations, miscellaneous,
signs, swimming pools, plumbing, electric and mechanical, shall include a fee for training and education
of Building Department personnel of $0.30 per thousand dollars of estimated cost.
SECTION IV: No permit shall be required for general maintenance or repairs which do not change the
occupancy and the value of which does not exceed one thousand five hundred ($1,500.00) dollars in
labor and material as determined by the Building Official.
SECTION V: As per City of Tamarac Ordinance No. 0-2004-15 Addition Article XI, entitled "Public Art
Program", a Public Art Fee will be assessed based on construction value of improvements to real
41
City of Tamarac
property in the City of Tamarac as provided for in Section 5-304. Public Art Fees shall be collected at the
time of permit issuance.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT PROFILE:
Community Development Code Compliance Profile
The Code Compliance Division is charged with ensuring compliance with the City of Tamarac's Code of
Ordinances. Compliance is achieved through communication with and the education of our residents and
business owners, utilization of approved inspection techniques; investigation of complaints; and if
required, the imposition of fines and liens through a quasi-judicial hearing process and the issuing of
uniform citations. These processes act to provide an equitable, expeditious, and effective method of
enforcing the Code of Ordinances.
Much of the due process and compliance related fees assessed have not been increased since 2008.
With Code Compliance being a dominant issue in the Community with a significant emphasis placed on
enforcement and the ability to achieve instantaneous compliance, it will be necessary to determine
whether the current fees assessed are compatible and reasonable for the associated application type. In
addition, the existing fees are not based on a true comparative of fees from neighborhood jurisdictions to
support or justify its structure.
As the City’s population increases and the building stock ages, it becomes increasingly important to
ensure that the services provided to the community, through the enforcement and compliance process,
generate fees proportional to the cost of service provision in order to minimize the dependence on the
City’s General Revenue Fund. To validate and ensure the integrity of the current fee schedule, the City
Commission has directed staff to obtain a professional external review of the existing schedule below, as
well as existing cost data.

Business Tax Receipt Profile:
In October, 1995, the City adopted and implemented an Equity Tax Study to support an increase to the
Business Revenue Receipt Fees. Pursuant to Florida Statutes 205.0535(4), the City has the ability to
increase Business Tax Receipt Fees (“Fees”) by up to five (5%) percent every other year. Since the
adoption of the Equity Study, the City has opted to increase its Fees by five (5%) percent every two
years, with the last increase occurring in July, 2008. Since July, 2008, the City has not processed an
increase in the fees, largely based on the downturn in the Economy.
Since 2009, the City has experienced an upward trend in the issuance of Business Tax Receipts. Based
on Florida Statutes, the business tax rate structure and classifications in the City of Tamarac’ s adopted
ordinance must be reasonable and based upon the rate structure and classifications prescribed in
ordinances adopted by adjacent local governments that have implemented s. 205.0535. Should the City
59
City of Tamarac
find that the rate structures or classifications of adjacent local governments are unreasonable, the rate
structure or classifications prescribed in our ordinance may be based upon those prescribed in
ordinances adopted by local governments that have implemented s. 205.0535 that have a comparable
population.
A true comparison or Fee Study has not been commissioned to determine the reasonability of the City’s
Fees in comparison to adjacent local governments. In addition, several adjacent local governments
assess an administrative fee at Business Tax Receipt application and again at the renewal stage. The
administrative fee is generally designed to supplement staff time and cost for the processing of
applications. The City is interested in determining the viability of assessing such a fee and obtaining a
recommendation on what such a fee might be.
The Consultant will verify that the amount of any proposed increase is consistent with Florida Statutes in
that the increase, if proposed, does not exceed the maximum of five (5) percent for every other year.

FIRE / RESCUE DEPARTMENT PROFILE
Tamarac Fire Rescue responds to over 13,000 calls for service annually and
provides EMS, Fire Watch Standby and Crowd Manager Details with off duty
staffing. While total annual calls has not changed much since the last study
(approximately less than 10%) other factors have adjusted or been added i.e.
CPI, local recovery for service costs etc. Redevelopment and new development
projects around the City continue (such as Walmart, Unipharma, Planet Fitness
etc...). Although the City is currently over 90% built out redevelopment is a
challenge because of new Local, State and National Codes are more stringent
requiring constant change.
104
City of Tamarac
Fire Standby detail and fire apparatus (min of 3 hours for each Firefighter)
Fire Prevention: (Minimum of 3 hours per Fire Inspector/Crowd Manager)
services include required Annual Fire & Life Safety inspections of every building
beyond single and two family dwellings, places of indoor/outdoor assembly and
development common areas including streets and egress. Additionally all special
events, conceptual site plans and construction plan reviews of all permits except
the single family and two family are required to be conducted by a Fire Plans
Examiner with the potential for re-review of most plans submitted.
Personnel provide, target and high hazard training to staff, fire drills for
businesses and all schools private/public in the City, fire extinguisher training,
Disaster Preparedness talks and deliver many other educational programs
throughout the community.
Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT) and our Fire Cadet/Explorer
programs are managed through Fire Prevention as well.
In Fiscal Year 2004, the currently used fee schedule was adopted by resolution
(attached) and has been used since. Currently the Building Department collects
all permit/plan review fees for construction documents; Community Development
collects Site Plan, Special Event and residential home business inspection fees
for fire prevention. Fire prevention staff performs the construction and annual fire
and life safety inspections then creates an invoice that is reviewed by the finance
department returned to fire prevention and finally mailed to the customer. The
finance department receives all payments. Currently, all fire department fees are
used to fund fire rescue or general fund expenses.
The existing fee schedule needs review for economic adjustment and an update
of service recovery needs. Some specific items which were previously not
included in the fee schedule require assessment. Some of these items include:
Code required Crowd Manager Fees, Expedited Plan Review Fees, Food Truck
inspections, Fire Cause and Determination Fee, Complaint Investigation Fee,
Flow Test Performed, Flow Test Inspection Fee, False Alarm Fees, Test and
Balance, Pyro techniques, after hours expedited inspection fees, special
equipment inspections such as generators, fire pumps, propane tanks, special
agent extinguishing systems, hood systems, special HVAC, voice evacuation
systems, fueling stations, AED inspections and demolition inspection fees. We
also need a double fee for work started or completed without a permit.
Florida State Statute allows for the recovery of services provided. Fire
Prevention typically uses a City Staff member and vehicle to go into every
construction site, business and multifamily residence (approximately 2700) at
least once annually and some high hazard at least twice annually. This activity
accounts for the majority of the fire inspectors typical daily activities.
105
City of Tamarac
The Fire Rescue Department strives to be good stewards of the public funds by
reviewing these important areas to ensure that the services provided to the
community, such as permitting, firefighting, EMS response, disaster emergency
management, delivery of public education and life safety programs and
inspection services generate fees proportional to the cost of service in order to
minimize the dependence on the City’s General Revenue Fund.
