Staff said item 5(d) is a resolution to appoint five members to the newly formed Senior Advisory Committee and item 5(e) is a resolution appointing one member to the RBG committee. The staff review described these as consent-agenda appointments; the transcripts did not record names of the appointees during the review.

The staff packet also lists an ordinance for second reading (item 8) — the city’s first budget amendment of 2025. Christine, a staff member, said nothing in the ordinance has changed since the first reading, which the transcript records was approved on May 14.

Commissioner Moore Wright submitted item 11(a), a request to reinstate commission workshops; staff said that will be discussed at the May 28 meeting. Item 11(b) is a ZIP code boundary review that the city manager’s office will present; staff said it will outline steps the city would pursue to establish a new ZIP code for Tamarac.

No formal votes or final actions were recorded during the staff review; staff repeatedly reminded the audience that public comment will be welcomed at the commission meeting.

\"Essentially, it's the city participating with the Community Foundation of Broward,\" said Maxine, describing the partnership and noting that two other cities — Lauderhill and Oakland Park — have joined the effort. She said the arrangement calls for $50,000 in seed funding, to be paid as $25,000 by December and $25,000 in 2026.

Maxine said the endowment funds would be invested and could grow over time; the foundation would allow the city to support community initiatives through the endowment and staff said up to 5% of the city’s donation would be available for those initiatives.

Jonathan Allen, identified in the staff review as the chairperson of the foundation, was scheduled to present a fuller briefing to the commission at the May 28 meeting.

\"This is the HOME agreement,\" Calloway said, describing the packet item as a routine formality. She said Tamarac is a consortium member with Broward County and that the county’s paperwork was delayed because the allocation covered COVID-era fiscal years.

Calloway said the total for the combined fiscal years 2021–2023 is $295,624.24 and that the funds will be used for the city’s owner-occupied minor home repair (hardening) program. She thanked the city attorney for resolving details needed to permit reimbursement under the agreement.

Staff presented the agreement as standard practice for the city’s participation in the HOME program and said the item will be before the commission at the May 28 meeting; no final vote was recorded during the staff review.

Mike Nisi, fire chief, said the request covers two service contracts and a device contract and that the combined contracts total $35,004.16. \"And also the additional purchase of 1 stretcher, 35,000, could bring us to a total of 70,000 here,\" Nisi said, explaining the city buys a replacement stretcher annually.

The item stems from recurring purchases and maintenance: Nisi said the two contracts include a power-load service contract and a LUCAS device contract and that the city routinely replaces at least one stretcher each year. He told staff the $65,000 threshold will be exceeded, meaning the commission must consider the higher amount at its meeting.

Nisi said the additional funds are requested as an authorization in case equipment breaks between now and October. \"No matter what, even if a wheel falls off, we're going to have to come back to commission to have it approved,\" he said, and added the department has no immediate plans to spend the contingency funds.

The staff presentation described the request as an extension/authorization so the department can replace critical equipment without returning to the commission for emergency approval; final action was not recorded during the staff review and will be before commissioners at the public meeting on May 28.

Details drawn from the staff review session: the two contracts were described as totaling $35,004.16, a replacement stretcher was quoted at $35,000, and staff asked the commission to authorize a contingency that would allow total spending of roughly $70,004.16 if needed.","City staff told commissioners a pair of emergency medical equipment contracts plus an annual stretcher purchase will exceed the $65,000 administrative threshold and staff will ask the commission to authorize up to roughly $70,004 to cover the costs if needed.","actionData","errors"]
