MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR

DAVIE Update

By Mayor Judy Paul

At the town’s council meeting on December 2, 2020, the Town made a decision to reopen a limited number of playgrounds. This was based on existing staffing levels to ensure we could conduct both routine maintenance and meet the pandemic sanitation requirements. I requested that Mr. Lemack monitor the situation through the holidays. I was advised by the Town Administrator that our employees and contractual cleaning services staffing levels have improved and additional facility openings have been considered with the following protocols: • Each playground and restroom will be sanitized once per day with an electrostatic sprayer. • Park restrooms will be cleaned by the contracted cleaning company once per day and periodically checked by Town staff. • Sanitation scheduling may result in temporary closures of facilities while electrostatic spraying is completed. • Organized sports activities and spectators will be monitored at Bamford fields.

At the January 6th meeting council supported this initiative and gave direction to Mr. Lemack to reopen all playgrounds, park restrooms and restart our sports programs effective Friday, January 8th, 2021, with the aforementioned direction.

Being able to reopen facilities and start programs even while the pandemic rages will require the public’s assistance to maintain the cleanliness and sanitation of facilities, wear facial coverings as required and socially distance. Should staffing become an issue again, the pandemic orders dictate otherwise, or violations of the required protocols be observed, we will have to close the facilities and programs again.

The Town of Davie has been awarded the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for its Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) by the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA). The award is for the preparation of the Town’s CAFR for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019.

This is the highest form of recognition in the area of governmental accounting and financial reporting, and its attainment represents a significant accomplishment by a government. This marks the seventh consecutive year the Town has received this award.

The CAFR has been judged by an impartial panel that ensures the highest standards of the program are met and the certificate standards include the demonstration of a “spirit of full disclosure” to clearly communicate the Town’s financial story. The complete financial report can be viewed at www.davie-fl.gov.

“This award demonstrates the Town’s assurance to the highest level of budget practices, financial transparency, and commitment to those we serve,” said Town Administrator Richard J. Lemack. “I am proud of our team for achieving the CAFR award for the seventh consecutive year, which is a continued testament to public service professionalism.” A formal presentation will be arranged at a future Town Council meeting.
