Elections in November

S

everal years ago, the State of Florida adopted a law allowing Broward County cities to change their elec4 tions from the second Tuesday in March to November, 1 which would cut city costs and perhaps increase voter turnout.

3 Traditionally, voters have come to the polls in larger numbers 5 when they vote in November for State and national elections.

Similarly, when the City of Pompano Beach conducts its standalone elections in March, voter turnout has historically been lackluster, and at a significantly higher cost.

2

As a result of the outcome of November 2008 municipal election, a cost-saving referendum was approved to transition the City’s elections from March to the first Tuesday in November of even-numbered years to be concurrent with State and National elections; extending and shortening elected officials’ terms to accomplish the transition and increasing the term of the office of Mayor from three to four years.

The next City of Pompano Beach General Election will be held on November 4th, 2014 for the following seats, and every two years thereafter:

District 1 } Barry Dockswell District 2 } Charlotte Burrie District 3 } Rex Hardin

District 4 } Woodrow Poitier District 5 } George Brummer

Subsequently, on November 1st, 2016, the next municipal General Election will be held for the Commissioners of Districts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and the mayor-at-large whose term will expire. All candidates for city commissioner will be elected for a two year term; and the candidate for the office of mayor will be elected for a four year term.

Any person wishing to become a candidate, must be a qualified elector who has been a resident of the city for one year prior to qualifying, is registered to vote in the City, and who will have reached the age of twenty-one at the time of taking office, may be a candidate for the City Commission from the district in which he/she resides. In addition, each candidate seeking the office of city commissioner must file all the required forms as may be required by law with the City Clerk’s Office within the filing period starting at 12:00 pm, June 16th, 2014 and ending at 12:00 pm, June 20st, 2014.

Please contact the City Clerk’s Office at 954.786.4611 for additional information regarding the upcoming November 4 th, 2014 election.

Pompano Beach Cultural Center Coming Soon

Hotel Bailey to open as Bailey Contemporary Arts (BaCA) In February, the Pompano Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) approved a contract with Creative City Collaborative, the organization that manages the Arts Garage in Delray Beach, to operate two renovated cultural venues in Downtown Pompano — the Hotel Bailey in Old Pompano and the Ali Building on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard/Hammondville Road.

Alyona Ushe, Creative City Collaborative Executive Director, has presented more than 300 concerts by international talent and emerging artists in Delray Beach and launched an array of signature series, including musical concerts, visual art exhibitions, theater programs, and educational and outreach initiatives.

The team has already begun plans for phase one of the project --- opening the Hotel Bailey as Bailey Contemporary Arts (BaCA). In 2012, the CRA purchased the pigeon-filled building, and it is now poised to become the center of artistic energy in Downtown Pompano Beach. The renovation is breathtaking, and will feature a dozen sunny studios for

Opening in 2015, in conjunction with a new Broward County Public Library, the new Pompano Beach Cultural Center will feature a cutting-edge performance and event space, Digital Arts and Media Center and visual arts exhibition space. The Cultural Center will inspire artists to experiment and will draw new audiences to Downtown Pompano’s Creative Arts District. Innovative programming will celebrate the City’s diverse history and nurture budding cultural organizations. Cultural, literary and civic activities will be juxtaposed at a vibrant, walk-able hub and spill out onto a new Arts Plaza, across Atlantic Boulevard into historic Old Pompano and along Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard/Hammondville Road.

The City requested “iconic” architecture, and project architects responded with a bold “inverted L” design for the new center, creating massing and structure that intertwines a central courtyard and breezeways to encourage cultural center and library patrons to intermingle and relax in the public Arts Plaza. At night, a translucent “glowing crown” will highlight the drama of activities at the Cultural Center and serve as a beacon of light for the Cultural Arts in the City of Pompano Beach.

The City plans to professionally staff the new Center in conjunction with exciting new programming at the Pompano Beach Amphitheater and to work with the Sample-McDougald House Preservation Society to integrate programming at the historic house and at other Cultural Arts venues throughout the City.

n the news every day, you can almost count on reports describing disasters somewhere in the United States or the world…whether it be hur-

describe the injuries. A basic description of what you actually see is very helpful.

Basic treatment for burns includes stopping the burning process as the first goal. From this perspective, you would remove any jewelry that might retain heat and continue to cause injury.

When a disaster is imminent or has already occurred, all City departments and agencies must work closely together to save lives and protect property. This disaster preparedness team works together at the City’s Emergency Operations Center (EOC). The EOC becomes the central nerve

Third degree burns or burns that involve a large portion of the body should result in an immediate call to 9-1-1 for an emergency response. While you are waiting for an ambulance, you can still help the person. Avoid removing burned clothing. Look

Recently, the City’s Emergency Manager, Kimberly Spill-Cristiano, was able to facilitate the upgrading of the City’s EOC with new computers, displays and other needed tools through a grant provided by the US Department of Homeland Security.

is awake and alert, you can assist by gently covering the burns with gauze that has been moistened with tepid water. If you are unsure if the burn is serious or not, the best approach is to be cautious and call 9-1-1.

There are also things that you should NOT do when caring for a burn. Don’t use ice in an attempt to relieve pain. The ice can cause additional damage because the skin has been injured. Do not apply egg whites, butter, or ointment to the burned area because they increase the risk for infection. Also, don’t break any blisters that form on the skin. The unbroken skin on a blister forms a barrier to infection, which is lost if you break the skin open.

While the City of Pompano Beach has been fortunate over the last few years, history reveals that disasters can and do strike our area. It is important to be prepared. Do you have a disaster preparedness plan for your family?

Broward

Sheriff’s Office (BSO) District is the very first BSO district to have a Community Action Team (CAT).

The unit was formed three years ago with the vision of working closely with all City of Pompano Beach departments and staff to detour crime BEFORE it happens.

The CAT unit consists of three deputies and one sergeant. There is a wide range of functions that the CAT unit addresses including Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED), community forums, workshops, Community on Patrol (COP), fingerprint

program, mobile home park program, festival events, church events, partnership with local businesses, and community outreach events.

One of the most popular CAT programs is CPTED. The goal of CPTED is to make Pompano Beach a safe and secure city utilizing crime prevention techniques. Collaborating with the Development Services Department, the CAT team applies the latest innovative security environmental design techniques. An example of this is removing or relocating landscaping that is up against home or business that may provide a hiding space, allowing an individual to conceal themselves in order to break into a house or commit a criminal act when the home owner arrives home.

To reach one of the CAT members you can email them at PompanoCAT@sheriff.org or call 954-786-4289.

Dig for change at a parking meter? Stand in line at a parking kiosk? Not anymore! The City of Pompano Beach has implemented a mobile payment parking service throughout the metered spaces at Pompano’s beach.

The new PassportParking service provides you the ability to pay for parking from your mobile phone.

“Paying by mobile phone provides our residents and visitors with an easy-to-use and convenient option to pay for parking,” said Lamar Fisher, Mayor for the City of Pompano Beach. “With mobile payment parking, we’re able to enhance the Pompano Beach experience by allowing customers to pay on the go as well as extend their session while they are enjoying the beach, activities, or local restaurants.”

Statement Utility Billing If you receive your water from the City of Pompano Beach you should have received your new statement utility bill. The City has finally done away with the old postcard bill. The new bill has more room to include detailed information about your water usage, including a comparison to your usage the previous month and the same month last year. There is also more room to keep you informed about upcoming events and happenings within the City. Perhaps best of all, there is a return envelope for those of you who like to mail your payment. Of course if your account is set up for automatic bank drafting, no envelope is included. We hope this new forTo utilize the new parking service, you must first register for free via the PassportParking’s app or website, or by calling the local free number: 954.204.3844.

You can also register with the push of a button using Facebook.

mat is easier to understand and we welcome your feedback. Call: 954.786.4637

Once registration is complete, you can pay for parking by using a mobile app, calling the toll free number or texting your zone and space information. Mobile payment parking also provides customers the option to receive text message alerts and reminders five minutes prior to their time expiring. Customers will not have to display any proof of payment as enforcement agents can view payments through a wireless device or through the pay stations currently in place.

You don’t even have to leave your beach blanket to extend your stay on Pompano’s beach. Use your smart phone to pay for parking and prolong your fun in the sun!

Flood Damage This article is required by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (F.E.M.A.) to satisfy provisions in the Community Rating System (C.R.S.) for reduced costs for flood in- surance.

The following is offered to Pompano Beach residents to help prevent and minimize the impact on lives and property caused by floodwaters.

Flood Hazard Map

The City’s Engineering Department has enhanced FEMA’s Flood Criteria Map identifying flood zones for all properties in the city.

The FEMA Flood Hazard Areas found within the City limits include Zone X, Zone AE, Zone AH, and Zone VE. The map depicts the flood hazard associated with any parcel in the City.

A Summarized flood zones map is located in the Building Inspec- tions Division at City Hall and is available in electronic GIS format.

Flood Risk

Although we have been relatively fortunate for many years, the recent flooding on Halloween 2011 reminds us of the possibility of a flooding event without a major storm or hurricane. The risk of flooding within the City of Pompano Beach can increase by the presence of higher water levels within the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway due to storm surge In general, property located east of State Road A1A within the City has been designated as a coastal zone which encounters greater flooding risk due to waves and storm surge during a significant storm event.

Flood Warning System

The City of Pompano Beach, in coordination with Broward County, has a warning system to notify residents of impending flood danger. Warnings will be transmitted on public address systems such as the City’s website, CODE RED, television channel 78, telephone, and on a door-to-door basis. Listen for instructions during times of flood risk.

Flood Safety

These are precautionary steps to consider before possible flooding: • Listen to radio or television for warnings.

• Obey warning and evacuation instructions from disaster officials.

• Know your evacuation zone and route.

• Take your own essentials (food, toiletries, clothes, blankets, etc.).

• Turn off the electricity and gas before leaving your home.

• Bring a battery-operated flashlight.

• Be careful at all times, particularly at night, and try to remain calm.

• Do not drive through flooded roadways • Do not walk through flowing waters • Stay away from electrical wires

Flood Insurance

Most homeowners’ insurance policies do not cover property losses due to flood waters. To

{Protect Your Home and Property}

insure your property for flood damage, you need a flood insurance policy. If you do not have valid flood insurance, contact an agent immediately. Property owners can insure property; renters can insure possessions. The City of Pompano Beach participates in the National Flood Insurance Program (N.F.I.P.) to provide city residents with the initial qualification to purchase flood insurance. Flood insurance typically covers the building structure but not the contents so verify your coverage for contents under your homeowner’s insurance. Please note that there is a 30-day waiting period after purchase before NFIP flood insurance coverage takes effect. We applied to F.E.M.A. for participation in the C.R.S. program to enable our residents to qualify for lower flood insurance premiums.

Property Protection

There are ways to minimize property losses from flood damage, including: • Move furniture and other household valu ables to rooms or spaces in the upper story of a two-story dwelling or a location higher than the regular floor elevation in a single story home.

• Place sandbags in strategic places around your property prior to flood status. When sand- bags are placed correctly at proper locations, they can slow up and divert flood waters.

• Upgrading your property can include regarding your property to provide for on site storage of stormwater runoff, installing an earthen berm along the perimeter, ret rofitting the existing structure to be flood proofed, or elevating the existing structure to raise the finish floor elevation.

Development Permits

All development (new construction, additions, renovations, alterations to properties, etc.) in the City of Pompano Beach require a construction permit. The N.F.I.P. and the Florida Building Code require the entire building to conform to the requirements for a new building when building repairs or alterations exceed 50 percent of the building’s market value. All applicable building permit applications must conform to this requirement when submitted to the Building Inspections Division.

The requirement may also apply if a building is substantially damaged. Before building on, altering, regarding, or replacing fill on your property, always check with the Building Division on any permit requirements. A permit may be required to ensure that the construction does not negatively impact adjacent properties. If an ongoing construction project within a City does not have a posted permit sign, please contact the City’s Building Division to report the possible violation.

Stormwater Management

Stormwater is managed through a system of pipes and drainage canals maintained regularly by our Public Works and Utilities Departments. The Broward County Office of Environmental Services and South Florida Water Management District. Constant water flow through these canals, especially during heavy storms, is essential to flood prevention in the City. City and state laws prohibit dumping trash in waterways. Report violators to Public Works Department at 954.786.4060.

Natural Habitat

Natural areas of the City provide a beneficial function by the reducing the potential severity of flooding. These natural areas typically the collect and retain stormwater runoff during rainfall events and allow for the infiltration of stormwater into the natural ground surface, which can reduce the flooding levels within the developed areas of the City. These natural areas also enhance the water quality of stormwater runoff by allowing suspended sediments and nutrients to settle during the retention period.

State regulations protect those natural areas that help to reduce the risks associated with flooding. Along the beach, no new structures are permitted seaward of the Coastal Construction Line without permission. Other restrictions protect some wetland areas from development.

Rate Reductions

On June 11th, 1993, F.E.M.A. awarded the City with a Class 9 rating in the C.R.S. This rating earned Pompano Beach residents a five percent discount on flood insurance premiums.

In September 1994, the City received official notification that Pompano Beach residents are eligible for an additional five percent discount, or ten percent total, on flood insurance based on the City complying with the requirements for a Class 8 rating in the C.R.S. In July 2012, F.E.M.A. awarded the City a class 7 rating so flood insurance policy holders in special flood hazard areas in the City will now receive a 15% discount on their insurance premiums.

Additional Information

We urge City residents to contact or visit the Building Inspections Division to determine the flood zone and flood elevation for their property. Pompano Beach City Hall is at 100 West At- lantic Boulevard, Pompano Beach, Florida. The Pompano Beach Branch of the Broward County Library, located at 1213 East Atlantic Boulevard, has information on flood insurance, flood protection and flood plain management. For More Information: Call Paola West, City of Pompano Beach Principal Planner at 954.545.7780 or email floodzoneinfo@copbfl.com.
