November and April, the budget office asks City departments to submit information pertaining to their ten year capital replacement plans, internal service charges, financial information such as audit fees, debt service payments, interest earnings, fund balance, general employees and police and firefighter’s retirement contributions, and other revenue and expenditure forecasts. A budget kickoff meeting scheduled in February provides general guidelines for all departments on how to analyze and submit their budgets and any new enhancement requests for the next fiscal year. Major departments in the General Fund are also required to propose percentage reductions in their respective budgets, but in doing so must outline how such reductions might impact their operations, inclusive of whether it would require a reduction in services and/or programs that they administer. The Budget Office analyzes this information in conjunction with the City Manager’s Office and determinations are made

ity to continue to provide vital and uninterrupted services to its residents. Based on the Truth in Millage Rate (TRIM) Manual, a document published by the Florida Department of Revenue, staff advises the City Commission on how the City of Pompano Beach, as one of the Broward County Taxing Authorities, should calculate its millage rate under Chapter 200.065(1), F.S. To accommodate any Commission requests received during public budget hearings or as a result of the individual meetings with each member of the City Commission, staff also prepares different millage rate scenarios and the required voting mechanisms to adopt a particular proposed millage rate. The preliminary fire assessment fee, that covers fire service costs, is presented to the City Commission for approval at the last City Commission meeting in July. September,

hearings are held. The first hearing adopts the tentative millage rates and budgets as well as the final fire assessment fee, while the second hearing adopts the final millage rates and budgets (inclusive of the separate millage and budget adopted for the Emergency Medical Services District) for the upcoming fiscal year. Again, this is another opportunity for the Commission, residents and businesses to express their concerns, ask additional questions or educate themselves on all the stages of the budget process: from the preparation to the final adoption of the budget and millage rates, an eleven month process. After the final Public Budget Hearing, the Budget Office submits the TRIM compliance package to the Department of Revenue, as part of the TRIM compliance process. During the first Commission meeting in October, the City Commission is requested
The public is encouraged to educate themselves and be part of the annual budget process. Residents and businesses have the opportunity to serve in approximately 28 different advisory boards and/or attend all monthly or quarterly advisory board meetings. Each year, residents, non-profit agencies and businesses have the opportunity to participate in the June and July Budget Workshops, Special City Commission meetings, as well as in two Public Budget Hearings in September. Throughout the year, residents may also voice themselves at any of the 20 public City Commissions meetings or may contact the City Manager’s Office and the Budget Office, the Mayor or their District Commissioners with any questions or comments. The Budget Office can provide a copy of the operating and line item budget books upon request. The operating and line item books are published online www.pompanobeachfl.gov/index.php/ pages/budget/budget. Both Operating and Line Item adopted books are published online within 30 days after the final adoption www.pompanobeachfl. gov/index.php/pages/budget/budget. Additionally, residents, businesses and visitors can access the budget through OpenGov Financial Transparency that allows you to visualize the City’s annual budgets from FY 2010 to present at

The Visitor Center is a direct result of the Mayors Stimulus Task Force established almost ten years ago, recognizing the importance of tourism to beach communities. As a result of this task force’s recommendation, the Economic Development Council established a Tourism Committee, who determined the need for a Visitor Center and brought it to the City Commission who ultimately approved it.

Zones to Spur
ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT By Sandra King, Public Communications and Marketing Director
O
n April 19, 2018, Governor Rick Scott announced his recommendation to designate 427 communities across the state of Florida as Opportunity
Zones, including two major tracts in the northwest section of Pompano Beach. Established by the Federal Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, Opportunity Zones encourage long-term private investment in distressed communities by providing federal tax incentives for persons to

attract businesses, developers, and financial and educational institutions due to the federal tax incentive the designation as an Opportunity Zone provides. Additionally, included within the two designated tracts is the Innovation District, Pompano Beach’s proposed downtown. “I am very excited about further economic development in Pompano Beach’s northwest community,” said Mayor Lamar Fisher. “The proposed Innovation District has the potential of generating almost a $1 billion in economic impact for the City of Pompano Beach.” The evaluation process included statistical analysis of poverty rates, population, unemployment rates and other economic indicators, along with assessing recommendations from more than 1,200 requests. These specific requests came from municipal and county governments, regional planning councils, nonprofits, developers, investors and more. The U.S. Department of the Treasury has 30 days to certify each state’s recommendations. After the Zones are approved, the federal government will begin the rulemaking process to designate how Opportunity Zone funds are created and how businesses, developers and financial institutions can invest in qualified Zones.

The Vision of
DOWNTOWN
T
he City of Pompano Beach and the Community Redevelopment Agency’s (CRA) vision is to create a vibrant and pedestrian friendly, mixed-use environment throughout the entire Downtown. The redevelopment is inspired by
the global rise of the “Innovation District” concept that emphasizes a combination of business, technical, corporate, government, hospitality, education and cultural uses. Innovation districts embody the notion of “live, work, play” environments by integrating a variety of daytime (office, commercial, retail, technical, etc.) and nighttime (restaurants, breweries, cultural arts, hospitality, etc.) economic uses with a dense residential component. New developments in the Downtown will consist of active uses on the ground floor and residential and commercial uses on the upper floors. Creating economic opportunities for residents is a goal of the CRA; proposed uses in the Innovation District should therefore promote job growth, preferably with high wage job opportunities.
SIZE & LOCATION: The Innovation District in Downtown Pompano Beach is comprised of 65 parcels, many of which are assembled. The parcels range from .2 acres and the assemblages range up to 7.7 acres. The western-most portion of the site (located along I-95) is one of the only assemblages left in south Florida that is undeveloped along the busy I-95 corridor with a major exit to an urban area and to the Atlantic Ocean. From top left to bottom right: GreenMarket, Community Garden, Old Town Untapped and local Breweries.
The Downtown, a 400+ acre area, features four distinct sections: The Innovation District, Old Town, the Civic Commons and surrounding neighborhoods. It’s a framework that orders the elements into an inviting network of streets, squares and blocks that blend architecture, landscaping and City planning to make urban areas both functional and attractive.
It promotes connections between people and
places, between movement and urban form, and between the pedestrian experience and building fabric. This urban design vision draws together all aspects of the physical environment and the community it surrounds to create a place of distinct beauty and identity. The
INNOVATION DISTRICT is the high density, core commercial
area where the majority of the CRA and City owned parcels are ready for development. The development of these parcels is a top priority for the City and CRA. Continued on next page

The multi-media project will be interactive and include components of public art, performance art, “drop-in” activities, literary events and digital projections with built-in “augmented reality”. Art residencies highlight the importance of meaningful and multi-layered exchange and immersion into another culture. The City is in the middle of completing two artist in residency programs. Artist Ya La’ford is working with residents of Collier City holding community engagement events and giving lectures. These engagements will be used as inspiration for the artist to create a final, permanent artwork that will be installed in Collier City. The City’s second artist in residency program features lead artist Sonata Kazimieraitiene who has been working with apprentices to complete mosaics throughout the City.

roadways and they are not stopping there! The City’s Public Art Program has already taken the art world by storm receiving the Florida Planning and Zoning Association Community Placemaking Award for the Public Art Master Plan and Guidelines in 2016. The Ten Year Pubic Art Master Plan guides the Committee in projects to be implemented. In addition, the City is one of 89 organizations nationwide to be awarded the 2017 National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) Our Town grant and will receive $100,000 in project funding from the NEA. The grant will fund activities through September of 2019. The NEA project, entitled Pompano Beach Crossroads, aspires to create and connect public art and performance art along a one-mile “trail” from the new Pompano Beach Cultural Center and Broward County Library, through historic commercial “Old Town” and along Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard to the Interstate-95 overpass.

Contemporary and ending at City Hall. The trail will create a unique sequence of the bees and their pollination patterns that will trigger spectators’ curiosity and send visitors looking for the next artwork along the trail. Kazimieraitiene is working on another mosaic mural centered around community and will be featured on the Charlotte Burrie Community Center currently under construction. The Public Art Committee unveiled the second round of the Painted Pompano Fish sculptures entitled Schools of Art at the Pompano Beach Cultural Center Courtyard. Sculptures from round one can
still be seen throughout the City. The twelve new sculptures, in the shape of pompano fish, have been placed throughout the City. Their locations can be found on the City’s Public Art Website’s interactive map. Each sculpture is individualized by artists in a variety of styles and finishes themed around different periods of art history. Also recently unveiled is the City’s newest artwork, a mural entitled Daydream by Florida resident Fabio Onrack. The mural combines photorealistic portraiture with three-dimensional effects. It is the forth mural in the area located behind the Bailey Contemporary which has become quite the artistic alley. Other projects planned for this year include the 9/11 Memorial, Cultural Center Project, Underwater Reef Sculpture, Utility Wrap Phase Two and Oasis Sculpture.

Pompano Beach’s eclectic art community brings something to everyone. These diverse artworks will help establish our City as a cultural destination as well as enhancing and beautifying our surroundings.

Our agency’s lifeguard certification is provided through the United States Lifesaving Association. Ocean Rescue lifeguards receive additional training with Pompano Beach Fire Rescue.

Flood Damage The Flood Hazard Everyone should know their flood zone! Call the City Building Division at (954) 786-4670 to find out: • If a building is located in a Special Flood Hazard Area or not. • If a property is subject to erosion. • If the site area has local drainage problems, especially during heavy rain storms. • If the property is in an area that has had flood insurance claims filed repeatedly. • If there is an elevation certificate on file for a building. • To access the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) for the City. Property Protection • Elevate furniture and other household valuables and electrical appliances, or move them to higher floors. • Place sandbags in strategic places around your property. Sandbags can slow down and divert flood waters. • Regrading your property to provide for better storage of stormwater runoff, in stalling an earthen berm along the perimeter, and elevating the existing structure are good flood damage protection practices. Some flood protection methods require a construction permit so always call the Building Division before making any alterations to your property at 954.786.4670. Staff can offer suggestions and visit your site to offer property protection advice. If you see a project that does not have a permit sign, please contact the Building Division to report the possible violation. Flood Safety • Obey evacuation orders from officials. Evacuation orders are issued for imminent storm surge, not wind. • Know your evacuation zone and route, and shelter locations. Find your evacuation zone at Broward.org/ Emergency or go to the City’s disaster preparedness web page at www.pomanobeachfl.gov/getready

{Protect Your Home and Property}
• Stay away from power lines and electrical wires. Electrical current can travel through water. • Do not drive through flooded roadways. Roads may not be distinguishable from canals or ponds. • Do not walk through flowing waters. Flood Insurance • Everyone in Florida should purchase a flood insurance policy to protect their building and/or its contents, whether in a SFHA or not! • Most homeowners’ or renters’ insurance policies do not cover property losses due to flood waters. • Please note that there is usually a 30 day waiting period after purchase before coverage takes effect. • The City of Pompano Beach participates in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and the Community Rating System program (CRS), which provides a dis count on all flood insurance policies. • Call your insurance agent today to purchase flood insurance. If you don’t have an agent, go to the FloodSmart.gov website, or call 1-800 427-4661 for help. The City is available to assist. Call 954.545.7780. Stormwater Management Water from rain storms is managed through a system of pipes and drainage canals. Constant water flow through canals, especially during heavy storms, is essential to flood damage protection in the City. City and State laws prohibit dumping trash in waterways. Please report violators to the Public Works Department at 954.786.4028. Only Storm Water Down the Drain • Please keep in mind that it is everyone’s responsibility to insure that our water ways are kept clean. • Oils, lawn clippings and other substances should never be put down a storm drain. • If you see someone improperly
p om p a n obea c h fl .g ov
disposing of waste into the storm drain system or waterways, or any other illicit discharge, please call the Public Works Department at 954.786.4028.
Benefits of Natural Floodplains Natural areas of the City typically collect and retain stormwater runoff during rainfall events 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 filtering through the ground. Sand dunes on the beach are nature’s protection against inland flooding from waves and high tides accompanying major storms. It is everyone’s responsibility to protect these natural areas and keep them clean! Sea Level Rise The consequences of sea level rise in Pompano Beach may include the following impacts: • Increased frequency of flooding in coastal and inland areas, • socio-economic impacts such as displacement, • decreases in property values and tax base, and • increases in insurance costs. • Visit the Broward County Environmental Planning website at www.Broward.org for more information about sea level rise. For More Information • Go to the City’s Emergency Management webpage at pompanobeachfl.gov/ getready or call 954.545.7799. • Broward County Emergency Management Department website at www.Broward.org/Emergency or call 954.545.4670. • Go to the Pompano Beach website at www.PompanoBeachFL.gov and go to the Development Services Division page for flood info, or call 954.786.4600. • Twitter: @mypompanobeach • Facebook: Pompano Beach City Hall. • The Broward County Public Library has many flood-related documents. Search the catalog for “flood” and “FEMA”.
