PUBLIC COMMENTS At this time, any person will be allowed to speak on any matter that pertains to City business for a length of time not to exceed four minutes per person. Gordon McNichols, 1499 NE 36th Street, distributed copies of a petition from the Corals neighborhood residents, noting that residents had not been consulted regarding the sidewalk project. They suggested installing sidewalks on 15th Avenue, consulting with properties experiencing drainage issues and addressing them before breaking ground, and installing four- way stops and speed bumps in the neighborhood. Tim Smith, 1015 NE 39th Street, congratulated the City on the Sky Building. In his capacity as Dixie West Association president, Mr. Smith discussed the El Sol condo building, which was swamped with trash, but Code Enforcement was having difficulty addressing it because it was a condominium and included rentals. He thought the City may need to amend the ordinance to address this type of problem. Alquavia Brown, 2360 West Oakland Park Boulevard, Director of Community Affairs at Sapphire High School, thanked Commissioner Newbold, Commissioner Gordon, and Commissioner Budhoo for visiting her school. She also thanked organizations that had contributed to the school. Jamal Thompson, representing Sapphire High School, acknowledged the Kiwanis Club, Broward Sheriff’s Office, Home Depot, Children’s Service Council, Jewish Family Services, LifeNet for Families, J. Dewey Lodge, Einstein Bagels, Walmart, Krispy Kreme, Dunkin Donuts, Winn Dixie, and the United States Coast Guard and Navy for their contributions and support. Eick Stone, 1568 NE 37th Street, recalled a 2021 neighborhood meeting in which residents unanimously opposed installing sidewalks. He urged the City to listen to residents and use the funds to install sidewalks on 15th Street or on another street where they would have a greater positive impact. Scott Bitner, 1500 NE 37th Street, discussed his concerns regarding the sidewalk project. He said the current plan would introduce significant disruptions without identifying a real need.

City of Oakland Park City Commission Meeting MINUTES November 5, 2025 Page 6 Nick Sotos, 1560 NE 35th Street, objected to the proposed sidewalk/swales project. He said a large tree, his parking area, sprinkler system, and meter would be damaged. He remarked on the lack of foot traffic on NE 35th Street. Katie Small, 1288 NE 39th Street, said there was a protected Sea Grape tree on her property, and she was concerned it would be removed for the sidewalks. She noted that some driveways were also too short, and cars would be parked on the sidewalks if they were added. Steven Smith, 1383 NE 39th Street, noted the lack of foot traffic on NE 39th Street. He thought the project seemed like overkill. Jacqueline McNichols, 1499 NE 36th Street, referred to a petition from a coalition of homeowners who would be affected by the sidewalk/swale project and said 50% of homeowners had signed it. She noted the negative effects the project would have on properties. She stated that if the City went forward with the project, affected homeowners were prepared to explore legal and procedural remedies to ensure a fair process was upheld. PRESENTATIONS * Walk Oakland Park: Creating a Connected and Safe Pedestrian Network Presentation Ms. Sierra Marrero, Engineering and Community Development Director, provided the presentation. Commissioner Budhoo thanked the public for attending the meeting and sharing their concerns. Vice Mayor Arnst remarked that sidewalks were not appropriate for every neighborhood, acknowledging they could impact a neighborhood's charm. City Manager Hebert pointed out that this grant had been approved many years ago, and he was unsure what would happen if they tried to change the application now. He agreed to research the possible consequences of altering the project scope and report back at the next meeting. He reminded Commissioner Gordon that a previous City Commission had approved this grant application, and backing out would have implications for future grant applications. Mayor Lonergan thought it was important for the City to work around some of these issues. City Attorney Doody noted that this item was not on the agenda for a Commission vote and that the vote had already been taken, the grant had been received, and the contract had been executed. The only question for staff was how to mitigate the project. He stated there were liabilities associated with not moving forward.
