Mayor Thurston explained the present regular City Commission meeting was being conducted in a new and challenging era. The City of Lauderhill, Broward County, the State of Florida, the United States of America and the world were experiencing a new challenge due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to those challenges, the City was permitted to hold virtual governmental meetings in accordance with COVID-19 Center of Disease Control (CDC) guidelines, and the State of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis Executive Orders #20-69 and #20-112, allowing virtual meetings to conduct official government business, waiving the requirement for a physically present quorum. He indicated he was present at City Hall, while the following Commission members and staff were appearing as follows: • Vice Mayor Berger, and Commissioners Bates, Campbell and Grant attended the meeting virtually or via conference call • Interim City Manager, Interim Deputy City Manager, City Attorneys, City Clerk and other staff members attended the meeting virtually, either within City Hall practicing socially distancing or from their homes • Due to the nature of the meeting and the constraints imposed by appearing virtually, he asked for everyone’s patience, and anyone experiencing issues should text IT Director Doug Downs II ROLL CALL Present: 5- Commissioner M.

City Attorney Hall explained the subject amendment pertained to the Maye Jenkins Park space, as the City wished to put a building in that particular zoning category to allow a building as an accessory use in the open space category. All the existing facilities with community rooms, such as Veterans Park, West Wind Park, etc. would continue as is. He stated Planning & Zoning (P&Z) staff noted there was an City of Lauderhill Page 3 City Commission Meeting Meeting Minutes - Final June 29, 2020 oversight within the open space category, so the proposed amendment would allow the City to have an accessory structure in its open space category. Vice Mayor Berger understood, adding sometimes amendments did not explain the specific purpose for the change. Mayor Thurston questioned the number of square feet the proposed building would be. Interim City Manager Giles-Smith stated it would 1,500 square feet. Commissioner Bates observed Maye Jenkins Park was not very large, asking about the parking, as there was space for about five or six cars. Interim City Manager Giles-Smith replied it would be built as a community facility, so staff hoped most people using it would walk to the park; though it was a small area, the building was something the community requested, as it would house a police substation and a facility to teach neighborhood children how to box. A motion was made by Commissioner Bates, seconded by Commissioner Grant, that this Ordinance be approved on first reading to the City Commission Meeting, due back on 7/13/2020.

SCHEDULE SEPTEMBER 2020 BUDGET HEARINGS AND CITY COMMISSION MEETINGS. Attachments: Special Assessment Public Hearings Budgets Date Timelines 2020 Mayor Thurston asked about the number of meetings that needed to be scheduled, and how much time should be allotted for each. Interim City Manager Giles-Smith explained these meetings were set for the City’s budget review; they already had set dates and times.

Mr. Hobbs added all revenues, expenses, tax rates, special assessments and fees that constituted the City Manager’s FY 2021 budget. XVIII COMMUNICATIONS FROM PUBLIC OFFICIALS AT 9:00 PM, OR IMMEDIATELY BEFORE ADJOURNMENT, WHICHEVER SHALL FIRST OCCUR. IF AN ITEM OF LEGISLATION IS BEING DISCUSSED AT 9:00 PM, THE CHAIR MAY DELAY THESE COMMUNICATIONS UNTIL AFTER THE ITEM OF LEGISLATION HAS BEEN RESOLVED. Commissioner Bates thanked City staff for all their hard work, thanking the IT Department for creating an excellent census chart for the presentation and for doing an awesome job setting up the devices in the City offices. Commissioner Campbell updated the Commission on his meeting with the City’s police union a few weeks prior. After the meeting, a letter was written to the rank and file members explaining or clarifying some of the issues in the resolution the Commission passed a few weeks ago. He wished to clearly state, during the current times, it was very crucial for everyone to understand and participate in the various issues, as there were numerous issues that did not pertain to Lauderhill, but there were issues that could be focused on to make Lauderhill a better city. The movement was not one that impacted only residents of the City, but everyone throughout the United States, so it was important for the City to seize the opportunity to play whatever role possible in making sure the required changes needed in society were made. He knew there were some issues everyone could not agree on, but there were many issues everyone could agree on, and those could be focused on to ensure the present moment was exploited to make those changes. Commissioner Grant congratulated all the honorees who received proclamations earlier in honor of Caribbean American Heritage Month. She thanked the Haitian American Nurses Association and the Jamaica Nurses’ Association for their service to the community, and Tricia Foster, one of the registered nurses (RN) honored earlier in the meeting sent a comment to thank the City for the acknowledgement and recognition. On June 30, 2020, there would be a town hall meeting that would deal with disparities in healthcare, economics and education in the black community; this was a continual conversation, and Lauderhill would be a part of that discussion. Mayor Thurston would be present, along with Lauderdale Lakes Mayor Hazelle Rogers, Willie Walker, former superintendent of the Adam Clayton Powell building in New York, who was part of the civil rights movement, MJ Green, a banker, Dr. Pepper Bonay, a pastor and educator, Dr. Rueben Warren, a professor City of Lauderhill Page 13 City Commission Meeting Meeting Minutes - Final June 29, 2020 and director over the medical division at Tuskegee University, Marc Morial, president of the National Urban League, and Ambassador Andrew Young, who attended a past Martin Luther King, Jr., event in Lauderhill. She was excited the City would be engaging in such a conversation that would be moderated by Rodney Baltimore, and she looked forward to learning and listening, and she hoped everyone in the City would join in, including her fellow Commissioners and staff. Commissioner Grant stated the prayer vigil held Thursday, June 25, 2020, was a great success, thanking Ms. Giles-Smith and her staff for working diligently, helping to put the event together. The pastors who attended prayed on different subject matters, and it was a wonderful event. Mayor Thurston updated the Commission on the activities of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act Task Force, which continued to meet, reminding the Commission the federal government awarded Broward County $340 million, and the County agreed to share $100 million of that sum with the 31 Broward cities. The Task Force was working on developing a formula to disburse the funds to the cities; he wished to see a per capita method of distribution, whereby, funds were awarded based on the number of residents in a city, but this was not the distribution method preferred by the County Commission. He said the matter was being debated and, hopefully, in the next month the City would know exactly how much of CARES funds would be given to Lauderhill. There were some caveats, as the County was concerned with how cities might utilize the dollars, since the County was responsible for their appropriate use according to federal guidelines. He said if a city failed to adhere to the guidelines, the County would be stuck with the responsibility of giving those funds back to the federal government, and going after the offending city for reimbursement. Commissioner Campbell wished to know why Mayor Thurston supported a per capita distribution. Mayor Thurston thought a per capita method was the fairest and simplest way for dividing the CARES dollars. Commissioner Campbell questioned how Lauderhill would be ranked under that method. Mayor Thurston stated the City would receive about $4 million. Commissioner Grant thought this was not a bad thing. Commissioner Campbell opined it was not bad until one considered the City could receive more via another method of distribution. Mayor Thurston said this was an example of why there should be as many voices as possible contributing to the conversation and serving on committees. He was appointed to the Task Force because he served on the Broward League of Cities Board of Directors, but he would love to have other members of the Commission attend the League’s meetings to voice their varied opinions and serve on other committees.
