BACKGROUND
At the October 7, 2013 City Commission Workshop meeting, Craig Goldstein, owner of the
Westway Towing and WreckAmended Collision Center located at 3685-81 West Oakland Park
Boulevard, made a presentation to the City Commission requesting that they consider permitting

Biodiesel is the name given to fuel for Diesel engines created by the chemical conversion of
animal fats or vegetable oils. Pure vegetable oil works well as a fuel for Diesel engine.
Conversion to Biodiesel fuel has the following advantages:
- Readily mixes with petroleum diesel fuel in any ratio
- Restores lubricity of low-sulfur diesel fuel by mixing as little as 1% biodiesel
- Is made from renewable sources
- Can be burned in modern diesel with little or no modification
- Reduction in emissions of
o Sulfur dioxide by 100%
o Soot emissions by 40-60%
o Carbon monoxide by 10-50%
o Hydrocarbons by 10-50%
o Nitrous oxide by 5-10%, depending on engine tuning and the age of the
engine. Nitrous oxide emissions may increase in some instances.
PROPOSED AMENDMENT
The amendment proposed to the City’s Land Development Regulations is as follows1:
704. Business Zoning Districts

wide range of goods and services to serve a market beyond the community itself.
Such commercial concentrations are expected to draw substantial patronage from
outside areas and are not expected to serve the convenience needs of local
residents. As such, these centers should be oriented towards, and have direct
access to arterial roadways, particularly major arterials

City Staff Recommendation – Craig Goldstein is requesting that the City Commission amend
its Land Development Regulations to permit bio-diesel processing facilities as a permitted use
within the General Business, B-3 zoning district. Staff has reviewed the subject request and
finds that the use is most suitable within the City’s Light Industrial, I-1, zoning district. Should
the City Commission desire to permit the use within the General Business, B-3 zoning district,
staff would recommend that the use be permitted as a conditional use. Staff would further
recommend the following additional conditions:
1) Tanks and equipment must be stored either within a completely enclosed building or
stored in an area surrounded by solid walls at least six feet high.
2) Facility may not serve as a bio-diesel fuel service station.
3) Property shall be located at least 200 feet from any “R” zoned lands.
Based upon the above concerns, staff recommends approval of the proposed text amendment to
permit bio-diesel processing facilities as a conditional use within the General Business, B-3
zoning district, contingent upon the aforementioned conditions.
Planning and Zoning Board Recommendation - At its November 14, 2013 meeting, the
Planning & Zoning Board voted to recommend approval of the proposed ordinance amending

part of the City’s comprehensive goal of providing more effective and efficient services.
The Alzheimer’s Care Fund expenditures will be allocated for the purpose of providing funds to
cover grant related costs for to the Alzheimer’s Care Center/Caregiver Resource Center. The
grant is to furnishings, equipment and programming for the Alzheimer’s Care Center. This is the
third year of the grant’s appropriation of which only $47,082.79 is remaining.

[PAGE 36]
Commission Meeting-January 14, 2014 Page 36 of 107
The Building Fund 405 and Alzheimer Care Fund 112 budgets shall be amended to reflect the re-
appropriation of Fund Balance revenues, the receipts of grant revenues and corresponding
expenditures. See the attached Budget Amendment Sheets for more information.
Upon final approval on second reading, staff will immediately and accurately update the City’s
financial system with the amended budget information. All budget amendments and the

Summary
This proposed ordinance would amend Chapter 50 of the Lauderdale Lakes Code of Ordinances

Staff Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Commission approve the proposed ordinance amending
Chapter 50 of the Lauderdale Lakes Code of Ordinances to reestablish the Rental
Housing Inspection Program.
Background:
The subject ordinance seeks to re-establish the Rental Housing Inspection Program.
The revised ordinance focuses on regulating those rental units within the City that are
not subject to inspection by other regulatory agencies. As with the initial ordinance, the
revised ordinance will enable the City to obtain current contact information for landlords
and enable an annual registration and inspection program for residential rental
properties located within the City. Pursuant to the ordinance a residential rental unit is
defined as any residential dwelling that is leased for residential purposes, including any
single-family home, multi-family dwelling (including condominium units), duplex, triplex,
and quadraplex, mobile home, or other similar unit. Residential rental units shall not
include any dwelling unit that is owned by a federal, state, or local housing program or
that is subsidized by the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development,
hotels, motels, public lodging establishments, as defined in Section 509.013, Florida
Statutes, or any community residential facility licensed and inspected by the State of
Florida. Under the new ordinance no person would be allowed to lease a residential
rental unit unless that person has previously obtained a Residential Certificate of Use
for that unit. After the enactment of the ordinance, each person that currently leases a
residential rental unit to another person shall apply for a Residential Certificate of Use
within 90 days, unless exempt from the provisions of the new regulations. The annual

[PAGE 43]

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Commission approve the proposed ordinance amending Chapter
50 of the Lauderdale Lakes Code of Ordinances to reestablish the Rental Housing Inspection
Program.
THE REQUEST
City Staff is requesting that Chapter 50 of the Lauderdale Lakes Code of Ordinances be amended
to reestablish the City’s Rental Housing Inspection Program.
BACKGROUND
In 2000, pursuant to Ordinance No. 00-31, the City Commission voted to enact a Rental Housing
Inspection Program. The purpose of the Rental Housing Inspection Program was to establish
minimum housing standards that would m aintain property values, improve the overall
appearance of the City, and provide for the health, safety and welfare of the occupants of the
property inspected. After many years of having the scope of the rental housing inspection
program challenged by the Department of Business and Professional Regulation, the City
repealed the ordinance in its entirety in earlier this year with the intent of redrafting the
ordinance.
The subject ordinance seeks to re-establish the rental housing inspection program. The revised
ordinance focuses on regulating those rental units within the City that are not subject to
inspection by other regulatory agencies. As with the initial ordinance, the revised ordinance will
enable the City to obtain current contact information for landlords and enable an annual
registration and inspection program for residential rental properties located within the City.
Pursuant to the ordinance a residential rental unit is defined as any residential dwelling that is
leased for residential purposes, including any single-family home, multi-family dwelling
(including condominium units), duplex, triplex, and quadraplex, mobile home, or other similar

or local housing program or that is subsidized by the federal Department of Housing and Urban
Development, hotels, motels, public lodging establishments, as defined in Section 509.013,

Florida. Under the new ordinance no person would be allowed to lease a residential rental unit
unless that person has previously obtained a Residential Certificate of Use for that unit. After
the enactment of the ordinance, each person that currently leases a residential rental unit to
another person shall apply for a Residential Certificate of Use within 90 days, unless exempt
from the provisions of the new regulations. The annual application fee under the ordinance
would be $75.00. The standards that have been established for residential units are as set forth
below:
Each property inspected pursuant to the application requested and each building or unit
offered for rent or lease or which is rented or leased and not otherwise exempt shall meet the
following standards established by the city in addition to and supplemented by other

EXHIBIT A
CITY OF LAUDERDALE LAKES
2014 STATE LEGISLATIVE AGENDA
PROPOSED/PENDING LEGISLATION (opposition)
 Oppose legislation proposing the elimination of economic development related
initiatives, such as Enterprise Zone Programs which have served as a catalyst to
promote economic growth and job creation opportunities
 Oppose legislation proposing the elimination of Chapter 205 of the Florida Statutes
which has been imposed for the cost of doing business in a municipality. Additionally,
such funds have been utilized to identify and address the needs of local businesses.
Currently, a municipality may impose a local business tax for the privilege of engaging in or
managing a business, profession or occupation within its jurisdiction. The amount of the tax, as
well as the occupations and businesses on which the tax is imposed, is determined by the local
government. Local business tax revenues collected by local governments are used to assist in
funding services critical to businesses, such as zoning, permitting, code enforcement, and police
and fire services. Local governments may also use business tax revenues to help fund economic
development programs, presenting a direct benefit to businesses through the marketing of local
areas
 Oppose legislation that would mandate the use of a uniform chart of accounts for
all governmental entities without requiring uniformity in other areas. The
establishment of a uniform chart of accounts, without requiring uniformity in other
areas, such as in the basis of accounting and the accounting treatment of various
transactions, in and of itself, will not provide users with any meaningful
comparisons between organizations. Transparency and accountability of the use
of public funds to citizens and other stakeholders is paramount, but it must be
achieved while simultaneously limiting the burden to the reporting entities and
preserving the autonomy of each affected entity.
 Oppose legislation aimed at limiting, dismantling or reducing funding for
Community Redevelopment Agencies
PROPOSED/PENDING LEGISLATION (support)
Community Development Block Grant Programs

[PAGE 69]
Commission Meeting-January 14, 2014 Page 69 of 107
The City of Lauderdale Lakes supports continued program funding of Community
Development Block Grants (CDBG) and HOME which are essential to protecting the
City’s housing stock, encouraging local economic development and stimulating growth.
Finance and Taxation
The City of Lauderdale Lakes supports legislation would allow for the collection of taxes from
sales made by remote means (e.g., internet and catalog). However, the City of Lauderdale Lakes,
in line with the GFOA opposes any efforts to include provisions in legislation that would limit
the amount of tax that local governments can collect on remote sales.
Economic Development
The City of Lauderdale Lakes supports funding to promote private sector job growth with
programs and activities that directly relate to economic development that are vital resources for
infrastructure and business development to alleviate conditions of unemployment and
underemployment in the City of Lauderdale Lakes. Also, the City of Lauderdale Lakes supports
continued funding of initiatives facilitated by Foreign Trade Zone, Enterprise Zone and
Brownfields Programs.
The City of Lauderdale Lakes supports state incentives and policies that promote business
growth and expansion and result in the creation of new jobs and capital investment. The City of
Lauderdale Lakes supports state investment in transportation infrastructure, such as roadways,
that improve our competitive position to attract business growth and investment.
Public Works and Infrastructure
The City of Lauderdale Lakes supports funding to meet critical infrastructure needs. Our
transportation systems, which are so critical to economic growth, continue to face major
challenges.
Parks and Recreational Initiatives
The City of Lauderdale Lakes supports art accessible to benefit the social, economic and cultural well-
being of our community. The City joins many cultural arts organizations in supporting funding for
municipal cultural arts programs.
In line with the FRPA, the City of Lauderdale Lakes supports measures that fund programs that
increase healthy lifestyles and physical activity.

RESOLUTION NO. 2014 - 01 APPROVING VARIANCE NO. 05-VA-13 ON BEHALF OF
MERRELL UNITED METHODIST CHURCH, INC., REQUESTING A VARIANCE FROM
SECTION 909.2 OF THE CITY’S LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS TO ALLOW A
MONUMENT IDENTIFICATION SIGN TO VARY FROM THE HEIGHT, SETBACK,
MAXIMUM SQUARE FOOTAGE AND ILLUMINATION STANDARDS OF THE CODE
Summary
The proposed resolution would approve a proposed variance request from Merrell United
Methodist church to allow a proposed monument identification sign to vary from Section 909.2
of the Land Development Regulations.
Staff Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Commission approve the proposed variance request to allow a
proposed monument identification sign to vary from Section 909.2 of the Land Development
Regulations
Background:
On November 22, 2013, Merrell United Methodist Church submitted a request for a sign
variance to permit the construction of a 96 square-foot, 12-foot tall electronic monument
identification sign. Due to a difference in the elevation of the property and the adjacent State
Road 7 corridor, the proposed sign would be difficult to see. The variance is being requested to
allow better visibility of the proposed sign. The elevation difference may be the result of past
improvements by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) that included a grade
elevation change for North State Road 7. The difference in elevation runs the length of the
subject property which not only hampers visibility to the church and its tenants from N SR7, but
also affects the traffic patterns into and out of the site.

[PAGE 73]
Commission Meeting-January 14, 2014 Page 73 of 107
The Project – On November 22, 2013, Merrell United Methodist Church submitted a request for
a sign variance to permit the construction of a 96 square-foot, 12-foot tall electronic monument
identification sign. Due to a difference in the elevation of the property and the adjacent State
Road 7 corridor, the proposed sign would be difficult to see. The variance is being requested to
allow better visibility of the proposed sign. The elevation difference may be the result of past
improvements by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) that included a grade
elevation change for North State Road 7. The difference in elevation runs the length of the
subject property which not only hampers visibility to the church and its tenants from N SR7, but
also affects the traffic patterns into and out of the site.
Citizen Comments – The Public Works & Development Services Department has received no
written citizen comments to date.
Planning & Zoning Board Recommendation – At its December 5, 2013 meeting, the Planning
and Zoning Board voted to approve the proposed variance request by a vote of 3 - 0.
ANALYSIS OF THE REQUEST
Criteria
The criteria for approval of variances set out in Section 506.7 of the City of Lauderdale Lakes
Land Development Regulations is as follows:
Standards of review. A variance shall be granted only where competent and substantial evidence
presented in the particular case shows that all of the following are met:
(a) The particular physical surroundings, shape, topographical condition, or other
physical o r environmental condition of the specific property involved would result
in a particular hardship upon the owner, as distinguished from a mere
inconvenience, if the regulations were carried out literally.
As noted previously, the subject property is located adjacent to the elevated
North State Road 7. The parking lot sits approximately 4 feet below the
crown level of adjacent North State Road 7. This roadway condition has
created circumstances which are particular to the property and do not apply
generally to other adjacent buildings to the north within the B-2 Zoning
District. Strict application of LDRs 909.2 related to the maximum sign face
and maximum sign height, given the existing conditions on the property,
would deny the applicant a reasonable use of the property and to
communicate by sign.

[PAGE 74]
Commission Meeting-January 14, 2014 Page 74 of 107
(b) The conditions upon which the request for a variance is based are unique to the
parcel and would not be generally applicable to other property within the vicinity.
Staff finds that the conditions which the request for a variance relies upon
are unique to the parcel and would not be generally applicable to other
property within the vicinity.
(c) The alleged difficulty or hardship is not economic and has not been
deliberately created to establish a use or structure which is not otherwise
consistent with the LDR, and the applicant has not come to the condition, but
it has been cast upon the applicant.
The conditions of the site are unique and have been cast upon the applicant. The
variance is not necessary for reasonable use of the land.
(d) The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or
injurious to other property or improvements in the vicinity.
The granting of the variance from Subsection 909.2 to allow a 96 square-foot sign
face area, 12-foot tall monument electronic s ign with a reduced setback would not
be injurious to other property or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare.
(e) The proposed variance will not substantially increase the congestion in the
public streets, or increase the danger of fire, or endanger the public safety, or
substantially diminish or impair property values within the vicinity.
At 96 square feet (8 feet wide by 12 feet tall), the sign proposed for the North
State Road 7 entrance is similar in size to other monument signs in the
immediate area. This review criterion is met.
Community Development Department Analysis – Staff has reviewed the subject variance
request and finds it to be generally consistent with the City’s variance criteria. Specifically, staff
finds that the difference in elevation between the subject parcel and the adjacent State Road 7/US
441 corridor constitutes a h ardship that has not been self created. Based upon the above, staff
recommends approval of the subject variance request.

RESOLUTION 2014-03 APPROVING THE USE OF LAW ENFORCEMENT TRUST FUNDS
IN THE AMOUNT OF TEN THOUSAND ($10,000) DOLLARS, TO FUND THE BROWARD
SHERIFF’S OFFICE PURCHASE OF CERTAIN EQUIPMENT
Summary
This resolution would authorize use of Law Enforcement Trust Funds in an amount not to exceed
$10,000 to fund the purchase of additional equipment and to purchase workstation furniture for
the emergency operations center to enhance law enforcement's investigative ability and physical
fitness for our deputies.
Staff Recommendation
The requested equipment will enhance the deputies’ ability to deliver superior law enforcement
service to the residents of Lauderdale Lakes. Recommend approval of the Resolution.
The equipment to be purchased will be additional exercise equipment and workstation furniture
to be located at the emergency operations center.
Background:
Previously, the Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO) has a strong and continuous presence at the City
Hall. At the present time the Broward Sheriff’s Office presence is limited to a Community
Service Aide.
In an effort to enhance BSO Deputy presence at the City Hall; to establish a permanent outreach
site and to enhance Community Policing initiatives and crime prevention; the City purchased a
four position workstation specifically dedicated for BSO Command Staff and BSO Deputies.
The BSO workstation will be a location where BSO Deputies could perform essential BSO
policing duties and investigative work as well as law enforcement and City residents can meet
frequently to bond and work on policing matters affecting the Lauderdale Lakes community.
Funding Source: Law Enforcement Trust Fund
