Administration’s Focus for 2021




As we embark on this new year, our First Priority will be re-affirming our Commitment to Keeping our Residents Safe.

Although in recent days there has been some progress on the COVID-19 fight, the reality is that we are still many months away from general population vaccination and the number of positive cases in Miami-Dade and Broward County are very daunting. Even with these challenging times, our staff will continue to focus on delivering the level of service and projects our Residents have come to expect of Golden Beach. Below are just a few of our 2021 Goals:


  1. The Town will continue to provide hand sanitizers and masks to our Residents, in response to the COVID-19 Pandemic

  2. The Town will continue to hold periodic on-site complimentary COVID-19 testing for residents and employees

  3. The Town will hold a Swearing-In Ceremony (following strict COVID-19 Protocols)

  4. The Town will begin the actual Construction of the New Civic Center

  5. The Town will begin the installation of the New Center Island Storm Water Pump station

  6. The Town will Install Two (2) Bus Stations on A-1-A

  7. The Town will Issue an RFP for Fiber to the Homes

  8. The Town will Issue an RFP for Enhanced Security Throughout Town

  9. The Town will Issue an RFP for Furniture and Equipment for the new Civic Center

  10. The Town will begin engaging our Residents on the Design and Programing Needs of our existing Town Hall

  11. The BRAB Changes will be considered by the Town Council, after workshopping with the BRAB Members

    TM 01-2021

    RE: Administrative Focus for 2021


  12. Our Residents Services Department has some exciting and innovative programing scheduled for our Residents (keep an eye out in the Magazine for more details)

  13. Our Police will undergo refresher training and team building exercises

  14. The Fountains at The Strand will finally undergo a face-lift

  15. Our Public Works team will have quarterly “deep cleaning” of our right-of-ways


    These are just a few of the many exciting projects that we will be working on this coming year.


    We have also been extremely successful in securing over $170k in COVID-

    19 related expense reimbursements, and $120k in Code Violation Collections.


    In March I will begin my 14th Year as your Town Manager and I hope that through these years the one thing that remains evident is My Commitment to evolving each year; I believe that we owe it to our Residents never to become complacent. This approach to Leading our Team is what has attributed to our joint-success. I look forward to the challenges 2021 will bring, and to solving them Together.

      Thanked residents for listening to us and not allowing children to go trick or treating. Hopefully next Halloween we will be back to normal and have our usual huge festival. COVID is still here. Cases are increasing. Urges everyone to wear masks, keep social distancing and be very careful on whom they speak to and where they go. Had over 150 people tested at the COVID testing held by the town last Saturday. Residents are very pleased that we are holding these testing events. Wished fellow council members, residents and staff a Happy Thanksgiving.


    8. CORONAVIRUS UPDATE


      Town Manager advised that this afternoon he participated with the new County Mayor on a zoom call concerning COVID. Stated out of 148 plus residents we tested this weekend six came back positive. Limit number of guests in your homes to immediate family whenever possible. There is a curfew still in effect, urged residents to abide by the curfew. Will have another testing the second week of December for our residents. It will be held on the weekend.


    9. COUNCIL COMMENTS Vice Mayor Einstein

      Wished everyone a happy and healthy Thanksgiving, believes the Town has a lot to be thankful for. Wanted to acknowledge the passing of the Town Manager’s family member and send his condolences. Echoed the Mayors comments in regards to the groundbreaking, it was magnificent. Great job by staff.


      Councilmember Mendal

      Only comment is that mosquitoes are out of control in this area. He receives this comment across the board. He knows that the Manager has upped the spraying.


      Town Manager stated we will take action this week to saturate the ground in areas where there is stagnant water.


      Councilmember Bernstein

      No comments


      Councilwoman Lusskin

      Wished everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. Thanked the police for everything they’ve done for the Town these last few months. Seems like whenever we get done trimming all the coconut trees the ones we started with are already growing. Been an unusual winter so far. Got a lot of good feedback concerning the COVID testing. Thanked all of the officers who helped with the Veteran’s Day parade. Gave her the opportunity to go over every nook and cranny in the Town and surprised at all of the new construction going on in Town. It’s very exciting to be in Golden Beach now, especially with the groundbreaking of the civic center. Stated that the beautiful picture of the beach that was on the cover of the Town’s magazine was taken by resident Lily Fishman. Next in- person council meeting, she is going to come and read what she wrote to go along with the picture.


      Mayor Singer asked Town Manager to provide an update on the pickle ball court.

    10. TOWN MANAGER REPORT

      Asked Council to provide Michael Glidden with an updated bio for the magazine’s end of the year edition. Also, it is election time for the Town. Two Council positions and the Mayor’s position are up. Elections packets are available through the Town Clerk if you do not want to come in person you can request them and we will deliver them to your home. Qualifying dates are December 28th through January 4th. The Election will be held February 16, 2021. As it relates to the pickle ball court the ground has been extremely saturated, we have had over six weeks of nonstop rain. Unfortunately because that asphalt can pop when it gets rolled if there is any water on the lever it doesn’t get rolled. We have already painted the pickle ball court, it is safe to use but it is a bit uneven. Thanked Councilmember Lusskin on her Veterans Day event.

From:

Alexander Diaz, Town Manager

Subject:

Resolution No. 2716.21 - Approving the decommission of Police K-9 “Tyson”


Recommendation:


It is recommended that the Town Council adopt the attached Resolution No. 2716.21 as presented.


Background:


In 2016 the Town of Golden Beach purchased a Dutch Shepard as a police K-9 dog, named “Tyson”. Thereafter, his handler, Officer Julio Soca, was shot on duty on February 4, 2017. Subsequently, due in part to his long recovery period and the lack of training K-9 “Tyson” received with his handler; Tyson’s certification expired on October 31, 2019. K-9 “Tyson” cannot be utilized as a police dog any longer, therefore the Town wishes to decommission “Tyson” as personal property of the Town, and provide for his disposition and transfer to his handler, Officer Julio Soca.


The Town Manager, in consultation with the Mayor, recommends the Town Council approve the new agreement.


Fiscal Impact:


There is no cost to the Town to participate.

Subsequently, due in part to his long recovery period and the lack of training K-9 “Tyson” received with Officer Soca, for safety reasons K-9 “Tyson” has not been utilized as an on- duty dog; therefore, his certification lapsed on October 31, 2019; and

WHEREAS, it is determined that due to the above described circumstances, it would be ineffective to utilize K-9 “Tyson” as a police K-9 for the Golden Beach Police Department, therefore the Town has determined that he has no intrinsic police related purpose nor monetary value; and

WHEREAS, the Town wishes to decommission “Tyson,” and as personal property of the Town, provide for his disposition and transfer to his handler, Officer Julio Soca; and

Their deep understanding of public transit and mastery of innovative form making, coupled with our expertise in the design and technology of outdoor site furnishings and lighting has resulted in the Connect 2.0 shelter, a refined member of the Metro 40 Collection of urban streetscape and transit elements for a world on the move.
