on a Commission district basis.

Manager and copying the Commission on his concerns about potholes
and things that residents want the City to fix. At a recent meeting the City

amount.
Vacation

42. Commissioner Sherwood, District 6
Properties

4th of July
Commissioner Hernandez wished everyone a happy July 4th.
Associations Funding
Commissioner Hernandez stated regarding the $13K there are 4
Homeowner Associations in his district. The associations would be
happy to have the signs that flash the speed. Commissioner Hernandez
suggested to purchase them in bulk which could allow sending
information to the police department on who is speeding. Vice Mayor
Callari supported the suggestion.
Sidewalks
Commissioner Blattner stated he thought the City decided to discontinue
the 50/50 sidewalk program, but it is in the budget. Commissioner
Blattner stated the program is very discriminatory, as people who cannot
afford the 50% are not going to get fixed sidewalks. He suggested to roll
that money into the funds to fix more sidewalks in totality.
Dr. Wazir Ishmael, City Manager, stated staff will come back with a plan,
but he does not recall the Commission voting the 50/50 out of the budget,
as this is a way to stretch our dollars. But staff would look into it.
45. Mayor Levy
Pending Issues
Mayor Levy stated potholes and sidewalks are issues which affect the
quality of life if they are not corrected. In addition, there are leaning street
signs all over the City, these things need to be taken care of, he wants
staff to take inventory of the signs and provide the information to Broward
County. Also, the signs around school properties, especially around
Hollywood Hills Elementary School. Mayor Levy stated staff should
inventory the streets to identify potholes and to work on a plan to get them
corrected. City staff should be proactive about identifying issues and
having a plan to get them fixed.
