Tatiana Galliano (listed in the meeting as Tatiana Galliano), a Deerfield Beach resident, told the commission she received four camera violations between May 15 and May 29 and said she did not receive timely notice for the first two violations. She asked the city to review and consider dismissing the later notices or provide documentation supporting delayed notice if the city lacks administrative authority to dismiss them. Galliano said she received a prior warning but believed enforcement had not started because lights were not flashing and the timing of violations fell outside typical pickup hours.

Jeff Bradshaw, another resident, described multiple tickets he said were issued while he was traveling to a Veterans Affairs appointment; he said he accepted responsibility for speeding but asked whether enforcement and ticketing were applied consistently overnight.

Mayor Todd Drozky and commissioners clarified how enforcement works and what options recipients have. Commissioner Christopher Hudak recited the citation and hearing process: the camera violation is $100 and carries no points; the city’s administrative fee for upholding a citation at a hearing is $80, he said, so a hearing determination upholding a violation would total $180. Hudak said if a resident requests a local hearing and the hearing officer finds no infraction, the notice is dismissed with no costs. He also explained that the city’s ordinance sets the administrative fee at $80 (contrary to a figure one resident had cited).

The commission and staff clarified operating hours and enforcement details: the state statute permits automated camera enforcement only 30 minutes before and 30 minutes after school hours for an active school day; the city also said camera enforcement had a public outreach period before citations began, that BSO deputies remain able to enforce speed limits outside camera hours, and that the school‑zone cameras had been deactivated for the summer as of June 3. The mayor said the city used social media and other channels during a 30‑day warning period prior to citations beginning and that the city will deploy portable message boards before the fall school opening.

Commissioners and staff encouraged affected residents to request a hearing if they believe notice was untimely and to consult Sean Gladio, the director of public safety (staff on site at the meeting), for case‑specific follow‑up. The commission also committed to additional outreach before school resumes in August, including website notices, social posts, press releases, mobile message boards deployed by July 21, and informational postcards at community centers and school open houses.

No votes or ordinance changes were taken at the meeting; commissioners framed the matter as a public‑information and administrative‑process concern and instructed staff to improve outreach and to assist residents through the hearing process.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Regular City Commission Meeting 2025-06-18","oneSentenceSummary","Several Deerfield Beach residents told the commission they received multiple automated school‑zone tickets with little advance notice.

Eric Power, director of planning and development services, presented a rendering showing a circular feature divided into 10 \"pie\" segments, each representing a decade of the city’s history, with interpretive displays, landscaping and a central lawn area intended for future public art. \"The circular area . . . will be divided into 10 pieces of the pie, each representing 1 decade,\" Power said. He described plant selections tied to centennial colors, the use of existing sidewalk contracts to save costs and the intention to install pavers and interpretive panels in coming months.

Power said staff already fenced the site, installed new sod, and began sidewalk work under existing contracts; the decorative pavers and interpretive displays were pending. The presentation included a short resident survey posted on the city’s Centennial webpage; Power said about 30 responses had arrived in the first days and the city is also coordinating with the local historical society.

Commissioners offered suggestions during discussion. Commissioner Plaut asked about flag placement and suggested including a city flag with an American flag; Power said the location already has a flag nearby and staff would consult Parks for lighting and flag details. Commissioner Shanetzky recommended plantings that thrive in South Florida — hibiscus, lantana and beach sunflower — and suggested butterfly‑attracting species. Vice Mayor Preston praised the public survey and asked how residents could contribute; staff said the survey is available on the city’s Centennial web pages.

A member of the public online, former state representative Gwen Clark Reed, asked whether pathway lighting would be included for evening visits; Power said the design had not yet included ground lighting but staff would consider adding lights after landscaping work is completed.

Power said the next steps are to purchase additional landscaping, set pavers and install interpretive displays; installation of public art in the center would follow public‑art committee review at a later date. The commission directed staff to continue outreach and to return with updates as the project moves to construction milestones.","City staff showed a design for a Centennial Garden at the Obita McKeithen Park entrance that includes a circular 'centennial circle' divided into 10 decades, landscaping and future public art; commissioners and staff invited public suggestions via an online survey.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6194076,"Commission approves Quiet Waters Business Park plat amendment to reflect as‑built square footage",447,2011000,2458000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3864953-d34c9e68570b87c05810fd4e450e899f&start=2011&end=2458","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3864953-d34c9e68570b87c05810fd4e450e899f/thumbnail_2011000.jpg","/articles/6194076/Deerfield-Beach-City/Broward-County/Florida/Commission-approves-Quiet-Waters-Business-Park-plat-amendment-to-reflect-asbuilt-square-footage","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6194076-8baa82e1919e23a26211b218c1b8ea2a/orig.mp4?Expires=1770955624&Signature=gh4e0lGueizio41tCQOOGWVJJdWEYgYnFRO0ygGyZ5ugHgjjv~l0xSC7PpjjyBvgVXCrbZt75wrpgDvwiJ7LgaHRllEUu0V1j0ccvuaEpGw4uEqWT380EZD-kyWYtE1~U~LP7WfUDJPXoT1pFMtBTTB7vUiwIzoVr5kNCXZ2jU8bo1Ij980qbPVMTYYBQiqn-yg9mUlN56TxJkr6extN9t3tspymyIywbJl3xV8UuqyjQ0Aiqm~l2X42~~LfYx~BPBC4iWZjSMLMx~PN1zLUGwWV7Fk~8tM76yC6WxOudERkuzOj5vc~VnKSgHghl92EeuVgWwbyrCAgIBCF4Mn1nA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Deerfield Beach City Commission voted unanimously to approve a plat note amendment for Quiet Waters Business Park that adjusts the recorded square footages to match as‑built conditions and permits industrial office uses on a portion of the property.

Armando Hassoun, representing B10 Quiet Waters owner A LLC and B10 Quiet Waters owner B LLC, told the commission the owners purchased the 45.61‑acre site in 2023 and discovered minor discrepancies between the plat note and existing surveys. Hassoun said the application seeks to \"conform the plat note to the as built conditions\" and that \"there's no new construction being proposed.\" He provided figures showing differences between the plat note and as‑built conditions: Parcel A (buildings 2–5) showed a 15,641‑square‑foot discrepancy; Parcel A1 (building 1) showed an 836‑square‑foot discrepancy; Parcel B (buildings 6–7) showed a 1,627‑square‑foot discrepancy.

David Coviello, also representing the owners, explained the county’s nomenclature requires listing the use as \"industrial\" on the plat note even though the approved site plan limits uses to light industrial. \"The use actually under the site plan is light industrial under the site plan that you approved,\" Coviello said.

Commissioner Alan Plaut, whose district includes the property, said he had reviewed the application with staff and had no concerns. Commissioner Christopher Hudak asked about the difference in wording between \"light industrial\" on the presenter’s slide and \"industrial\" in the county plat language; the presenters explained the discrepancy was a county nomenclature issue and did not change the approved site plan.

After a brief public hearing with no public speakers, Commissioner Plaut moved to approve the item; Commissioner Hudak seconded. The clerk recorded a unanimous roll‑call vote in favor.

Staff noted the amendment is intended to allow the owners to proceed to the county process; Hassoun said the county planning council had provided a letter of accord on the proposed changes and the matter is tentatively scheduled for the county commission in August. The commission emphasized that the approval did not authorize new construction and that the change is administrative to reflect as‑built conditions.","The Deerfield Beach City Commission unanimously approved a plat note amendment for Quiet Waters Business Park to correct building square footages and permit industrial office uses on one parcel; staff said no new construction was proposed.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6194081,"Deerfield Beach joins Coconut Creek in legal challenge to Monarch Hill expansion; commission names representative for county meeting",879,4323000,5202000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3864953-d34c9e68570b87c05810fd4e450e899f&start=4323&end=5202","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3864953-d34c9e68570b87c05810fd4e450e899f/thumbnail_4323000.jpg","/articles/6194081/Deerfield-Beach-City/Broward-County/Florida/Deerfield-Beach-joins-Coconut-Creek-in-legal-challenge-to-Monarch-Hill-expansion-commission-names-representative-for-county-meeting","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6194081-d6f34343c3e5fff3f4dec9054cf8c03e/orig.mp4?Expires=1770955624&Signature=YWhKcCcBGq1zmVTZWZyOo6KION84~us1J~acepWlePu3gBE8vZ9TSOSbYhI0Cq3vvXinwaxY1YTGVLQlaj576Esg41pZtCnuj1GPzBuazcYnj-eQfUgUkD5cDMF-7n3ERRIbYUY9iwFBYsWRq0wGkjpadgcL1yHGa1Y-cxkE1zpYI75Qp1gGK0JQzAM5GPzvO4VLkUusGvPQy0AbC32KjhKYl3sSJbCjmag-D5PfbuT9sDffjIwFOk-X0Zh0DAEdmxf2N0F1Q5J~WugurSkkcbQO1cKaHn6DcDg8vMSs0F8IV8GbX0vYqN5bP765QEJyahlQHQJSvUNk~FchYXfKGQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Mayor Todd Drozky and commission members discussed recent legal and intergovernmental steps after the city and Coconut Creek filed a Chapter 164 challenge to Broward County’s approval of Waste Management’s permit changes at the Monarch Hill landfill.

The city’s planning staff reported that the challenge seeks review of the county approval and that elected officials from the cities and the county are scheduled for a joint meeting on Aug. 28. Eric Bauer, director of plant development services, told the commission, “the city along with the city Coconut Creek, have filed what's called a chapter 164 process challenging Broward County's approval of the waste management, landfill height increase and expansion.”

The issue drew sustained comment from commissioners, who urged that Deerfield Beach attend the upcoming meetings and press for protections for local water and neighborhoods. Commissioner Shanetzky said the county’s recent actions undercut Broward County’s own zero‑waste policy and warned against being persuaded by financial concessions offered by Waste Management. “We need to stand firm when we go to this meeting,” he said.

Vice Mayor Preston moved and Commissioner Shanetzky seconded a motion to send Commissioner Alan Plaut to represent Deerfield Beach at the county meeting with Coconut Creek. The commission voted unanimously in favor. Mayor Drozky described attendance as a demonstration of good faith and an opportunity to hear county and company positions.

Commissioners and staff highlighted related local actions and programs in the discussion. Shanetzky noted the city’s expanding composting program and the potential to divert significant tonnage from landfills if widely adopted. Commissioners also pressed staff to coordinate with Coconut Creek and to continue pursuing data and technical analysis supporting the city’s challenge.

Broward County Mayor Beam Furr and Waste Management were discussed in remarks by staff and commissioners; the county’s letter to city leaders and proposals offered to Coconut Creek were referenced in the public discussion but no county or company official spoke at the meeting.

The commission did not approve additional binding legal steps at the meeting beyond confirming attendance at the joint meeting and designating Commissioner Plaut as the city’s representative. Staff said elected officials and staff from the three jurisdictions will meet on Aug. 28 and that earlier staff‑level meetings have already taken place. The commission asked staff to keep members informed about future meetings and legal developments.

For now, the legal challenge remains active and the city’s next formal step is participation in the joint county–city meeting and further coordination with Coconut Creek.","The Deerfield Beach City Commission confirmed the city has joined Coconut Creek in a Chapter 164 challenge to Broward County’s approval of Waste Management’s proposed height increase and expansion at the Monarch Hill landfill and voted to send Commissioner Alan Plaut to a county meeting to represent the city.","actionData","errors"]
