25 CITY OF TAMARAC INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE TO: MICHAEL CERNECH, CITY MANAGER DATE: JANUARY 28, 2013 FROM: DIANE PHILLIPS, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER RE: TR THE FERGUSON GROUP AMENDMENT #4 Recommendation: Place the above referenced item on the February 13, 2013 City Commission Meeting agenda for Commission consideration. Issue: Approval of an amendment to the agreement between the City of Tamarac and The Ferguson Group, LLC providing for Federal Lobbying Services for an additional one year period. Background: In February 2008 the City entered into an agreement for Federal lobbying services with The Ferguson Group, LLC. The original two year agreement provided that upon expiration, the parties could choose to extend the agreement annually. The Ferguson Group specializes in representing local governments and public agencies and provides assistance and counsel on appropriations, federal grants and legislative policy matters. During the course of the agreement, the City has worked with The Ferguson Group to affect and/or support key legislative issue and to identify sources of funding for key City projects, primarily thorough the appropriation process During the initial four years of contract, the City received and/or was awarded the following Federal Appropriations: $610,000 towards construction of an overpass at 57 th Street and Pine Island Road $147,000 in funding towards construction of the Tamarac Recreation Center. $800,000 in Energy Funds for installation of solar panels. $300,000 for replacement of the City s radio system. In recent years, as the funding process at the National level has veered from legislative appropriations towards agency grant awards, the Ferguson Group has focused on identifying grant sources of funding for specific City projects. Over the course of the past year, while we continued to monitor appropriations, the City and Ferguson staff focused on identifying federal grant opportunities for key projects. During the past year, a number of applications were submitted on the federal level. As of this writing, the following two have been awarded;

26 Bus Livability Grant from the US Department of Transportation in the amount of $401,440 for installation of Bus Shelters Department of Homeland Security Grant in the amount of $8,164 for supplemental support to the City s SERT Program We continue to seek congressional support for major projects. The following requests remain at the forefront for congressional consideration. Tamarac Village Center (Mainstreet) Park n Ride Lot - $500,000 Tamarac Village Center (Mainstreet) Streetscape Improvements - $1.5 million Pine Island Road Overpass - $500,000 City-wide Bike Path Construction - $4 million / $16 million multiphase The existing agreement provides that the Ferguson Group will plan and implement all legislative strategies designed to accomplish the City s initiatives, assist in the preparation of supporting materials for the initiatives, develop meetings with members of Congress and staff to advance the initiatives, and serve as a liaison to federal agencies relevant to the initiatives. The proposed fourth amendment to the agreement provides for continuation of services at the current rate of $85,500 per year through February 12, 2014, under the terms and conditions of the existing agreement. The agreement provides for no additional fees or expenses other than those related to out of town travel and travel between Washington and Florida. All travel expenses are subject to prior approval by the City. Fiscal Impact: Approval of the Resolution and Amendment #4 provides for continuation of Federal lobbyist services through February 12, 2014, at a rate of $85,500 per year. Funds for lobbyist services are included in the FY13 adopted budget.

83 CITY OF TAMARAC INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM PARKS AND RECREATION TO: Michael C. Cernech, City Manager DATE: January 15, 2013 FROM: Gregory Warner, Director of Parks and Recreation RE: Temp. Reso. #12305 First Amendment to Reciprocal Use Agreement with the School Board of Broward County, Florida Recommendation: I recommend the execution of the First Amendment to Reciprocal Use Agreement between the City of Tamarac and the School Board of Broward County, Florida. Issue: Approval and execution of First Amendment to Reciprocal Use Agreement between the City of Tamarac and the School Board of Broward County, Florida. Background: On April 14, 2004, the City Commission of the City of Tamarac approved Resolution R , authorizing execution of a Reciprocal Use Agreement between the City and the School Board of Broward County, providing for the shared use of City of Tamarac and Broward County School Board facilities. City and School Board staff determined that entering into numerous agreements for the use of each other s facilities on a case by case basis would result in the expense of additional administrative time and resources, and, therefore, entered into a formal agreement providing reciprocal use of each other s facilities. Upon the expiration of the April 14, 2004 Agreement and subsequent Amendments, the City of Tamarac and the School Board of Broward County entered into a Reciprocal Use Agreement, dated June 2, 2009, wherein the City of Tamarac and the School Board may share resources to support each other s goals and objectives. The term of the June 2009 Agreement was for a period of five years. The 2009 Reciprocal Use Agreement provided for the City s use of the facilities at Challenger Elementary School, Tamarac Elementary School and Millennium Middle School, and the School Board s use of Tamarac Park, including the fields, Recreation Center, and Multi-Purpose Center, as well as, the Tamarac Sports Complex, Tamarac Community Center, and Caporella Aquatic Center. All scheduling was to be done as to not interfere with each agency s own programming, and no fees were charged for the use of the facilities. The staff of the Parks and Recreation Department, as well as the Broward County School Board, have found many benefits to having a Reciprocal Use Agreement. The City of Tamarac has been able to maintain its recreation programming at Tamarac school facilities and the School Board has been able to use City parks and facilities for their programs which in all instances has benefitted the community. Temp. Reso provides for the execution of the First Amendment to Reciprocal Use Agreement between the City and School Board of Broward County.

84 Temp. Reso. #12305 Memo First Amendment to Reciprocal Use Agreement Page 2 A summary of the changes reflected in the First Amendment to the Reciprocal Use Agreement include: Section 3 - Authorized Use of City Facilities by SBBC (School Board of Broward County) Section A specific Notice of Facility Use form rather submitting request via memo. Increasing the number of days notice for usage from ten (10) days to fifteen (15) days. Providing for revision of the Notice of Facility Use Form by mutual agreement of the Superintendent of Schools or his/her designee and the City Manager or his/her designee without formal amendment of the Agreement. Section Changing to the Director of Parks and Recreation or his/her designee from the City Manager as party to determine if the requested use conflicts or interferes with any other usage of the City Licensed Facility. If there is a conflict and the request is not approved, the SBBC may appeal the denial to the City Manager. The City Manager will determine whether to uphold the denial within fifteen (15) calendar days of filing of the appeal, and the decision of the City Manager upon such appeal shall be final. Section 4 Authorized Use of SBBC Facilities by City Section 4.2 Providing that the City will reimburse SBBC for any costs that SBBC incurs only as a result of the use of the School Board Licensed Facilities by the City (costs include custodial costs to address the operation impact of the event, energy assessment costs, and personnel costs for providing access to the facility during non-operational hours). Providing that no personnel costs will be assessed for providing access to the facility during nonoperational hours when an authorized SBBC employee volunteers to provide such access. All costs will be reimbursed by the City in accordance with those rates established in the Fee Schedule of School Board Policy 1341, Use of Broward County School Board Facilities for Non-School Purposes. However, each energy bill charged to the City as a result of its use of a School Board Licensed Facility during non-operational hours shall be reduced by 20%. Section 4.3 A specific Notice of Facility Use form rather submitting request via memo. Increasing the number of days notice for usage from ten (10) days to fifteen (15) days. Providing for revision of the Notice of Facility Use Form by mutual agreement of the Superintendent of Schools or his/her designee and the City Manager or his/her designee without formal amendment of the Agreement.

85 Temp. Reso. #12305 Memo First Amendment to Reciprocal Use Agreement Page 3 If there is a conflict and the request is not approved, the City may appeal the denial to the SBBC s Chief Service Quality Officer or his/her designee. The Chief Service Quality Officer or his/her designee will determine whether to uphold the denial within fifteen (15) calendar days of filing of the appeal, and the decision of the Chief Service Quality Officer or his/her designee upon such appeal shall be final. Section 5 Accessibility to SBBC Facilities The Superintendent or his/her designee will individually review each Notice of Facility Use to address any concerns not covered under the Reciprocal Use Agreement or School Board Policy Fiscal Impact: By executing the First Amendment to Reciprocal Use Agreement the City will continue to be able to use School Board facilities to expand its programs with no additional rental fees. Traditionally, the City has not charged the School Board for use of its facilities, other than a portion of the utility charges as provided as part of a separate Agreement for their use of Tamarac s Multi-Purpose Center.
