RES-24R-03-40-BRD-Youth Council -Jabbow.pdf AR 24R-03-40 Youth Council List Attachments: This item was considered before agenda item four. Vice Mayor L. Martin noted the City was involved in numerous activities, and the help of the members of the Lauderhill Youth Council was greatly needed to help City administration and elected officials bridge the gap of getting the City ’s youth involved. Karma Gibson stated she attended Rhema World Christian Academy as a freshman, and she wished to serve on the subject board to learn more about civic responsibilities, and how to function in a leadership role. Commissioner Dunn thanked Ms. Gibson for answering the call to leadership and service. Part of serving on the Youth Council meant paying attention to community issues, and for the young members to determine how they could be a part of the solution. She said the expectation of serving on the Youth Council was for members to attend meetings, and do the work; she could tell Ms . Gibson was willing to do that. Mayor Thurston thanked Ms. Gibson for volunteering to serve. Ms. Gibson thanked the Commission for giving her the opportunity to serve Lauderhill. A motion was made by Vice Mayor L. Martin, seconded by Commissioner M. Dunn, that this Resolution be approved. The motion carried by the following vote: Yes: Commissioner M. Dunn, Vice Mayor L. Martin, and Mayor K.

March 25, 2024City Commission Meeting Meeting Minutes - Final Abstain: 0 9. RESOLUTION NO. 24R-03-41: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LAUDERHILL APPROVING THE EIGHTH AMENDED ANNUAL CALENDAR OF CITY HOSTED SPECIAL EVENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2024; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE (REQUESTED BY CITY MANAGER, DESORAE GILES-SMITH). RES-24R-03-41-Calendar-City Hosted Events 8th Amended 2024.pdf AR 24R-03-41 Updated Commissioner Events (Eighth) Attachments: Assistant City Attorney Davis-Walker mentioned Commissioner S. Martin had to leave the meeting suddenly to deal with a family matter, but he asked that the Commission bring the item to the floor, so other members of the Commission could indicate their position on the item. Commissioner S. Martin wished the City to incorporate in its events calendar an event for Ramadan; no time or date was set, but he anticipated a two-hour event on a date between April 10 and 14, 2024, location to be determined. Vice Mayor L. Martin questioned the City’s existing procedure for holding new events. City Manager Giles-Smith replied it was 30 days prior to the intended date of the event. Vice Mayor L. Martin noted he willingly supported events that celebrated the holidays of every religion and background, but it could become frustrating on the City’s end trying to coordinate events at short notice with those already on the calendar. Mayor Thurston said he could not support passing the item, as the request was not being made within the proper timeframe. Commissioner Dunn remarked, despite the short notice being well outside the 30-day required timeframe, the City did not, necessarily, do much for the Muslim community, so for that reason she would be open to considering approving an event. She thought the City’s policy also required before an event item was placed on the agenda, there needed to be a set date and time for the event. City Manager Giles-Smith affirmed, normally, a date and time for a requested event must be provided before placing it on a Commission agenda for consideration. Vice Mayor L. Martin observed the Commission’s present denial of the subject resolution did not prevent Commissioner S. Martin from holding an event in honor of Ramadan; it was the City’s involvement portion that was at issue due to the short notice. He asked if any information was supplied with regard to the involvement of police, fire, and other City staff. Page 8City of Lauderhill

March 25, 2024City Commission Meeting Meeting Minutes - Final City Manager Giles-Smith indicated she was not aware of those specifics. Mayor Thurston received no vote to amend the City’s events calendar to include an event to celebrate Ramadan between April 10 to 14, 2024; he said the lack of a motion meant Commissioner S. Martin’s request to add a Ramadan event, due to the reasons discussed above, failed. He went on to request a motion on agenda item nine as presented, after which he opened the discussion to the public and received no input. A motion was made by Commissioner M. Dunn, seconded by Vice Mayor L. Martin, that this Resolution be approved. The motion carried by the following vote: Yes: Commissioner M. Dunn, Vice Mayor L. Martin, and Mayor K. Thurston3 - Absent: Commissioner D. Grant, and Commissioner S. Martin2 - Abstain: 0 10.

RESOLUTION NO: 24R-03-44: A RESOLUTION APPROVING AND ACCEPTING THE FISCAL YEAR 2023-2024 VICTIMS OF CRIME ACT (VOCA) GRANT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE STATE OF FLORIDA OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL AND THE CITY OF LAUDERHILL; PROVIDING FOR THE CITY TO RECEIVE GRANT FUNDING IN THE AMOUNT OF UP TO $166,488.00; PROVIDING THAT THERE IS NO MATCHING REQUIREMENT AS IT HAS BEEN WAIVED; PROVIDING TERMS AND CONDITIONS; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE (REQUESTED BY CITY MANAGER, DESORAE GILES-SMITH). RES-24R-03-44-Agrmt-VOCA Grant 2023-24.pdf AR 24R-03-44 VOCA Agreement Attachments: Commissioner Dunn noted the City of Lauderhill was taking a strategic approach to crime prevention; the only way for this to be done was with funding support from city partners. She asked Police Chief Constance Stanley to state what the subject grant would allow the City to do, and how it would help the Lauderhill Police Department (PD) continue to reduce crime, and support victims of crime. Police Chief Constance Stanley indicated Major Hennessy would provide the details, as he oversaw the PD’s grant activities. Major David Hennessy explained the subject grant was an ongoing grant the PD received from the Attorney General’s Office (AGO) in Tallahassee. A portion of the grant funded the hiring of civilian employees through victims’ services, and victims’ advocates; the PD reached out to the victim of every violent crime, specifically domestic violence, and the majority of victims of property crimes . They were offered victims’ services, both through the PD, and the State Attorney’s Office. He stated the majority of the subject grant funding was used for victim advocates’ salary, though a small portion of the funding was used for supplies, equipment, etc.; it was an ongoing grant the City received over the last several years, and the PD anticipated continuing to receive the grant in the years to come. Commissioner Dunn wished to know what a victim’s advocate did, and how did it support the City’s commitment to violence prevention. Major Hennessy responded the funding allowed the PD to take a holistic approach to addressing the victims of crime; it was not just about arresting perpetrators, though this was a priority of law enforcement, but the PD wished Page 10City of Lauderhill

March 25, 2024City Commission Meeting Meeting Minutes - Final to do all it could to make the victims whole, and support them through the prosecution process if, for example, they needed to testify, and /or go to court. The civilian employees were specially trained to make that contact with victims to offer more services through other partnerships through the City and Broward County. Commissioner Dunn sought confirmation that, along with help with preparing to testify, the specially trained civilian employees offered trauma response care, counseling, help with filing a restraining order, accessing resources, such as housing, transportation, etc.; thus, they provided support to families in need of help to navigate a very challenging circumstance. Major Hennessy answered absolutely; a lot of what the subject civilian employees did was work with such organizations as Women in Distress, help them find temporary, and, then later, permanent housing for women trying to get away from domestic violence. They helped with accessing funding for victim assistance from the State, should they, for example, need to relocate. Commissioner Dunn commented the subject item really demonstrated that in the City of Lauderhill, the City was not only committed to strict policing, but that the PD took an approach of wraparound support for families who were victims of crime. She thought the Lauderhill PD did a very good job of finding outside resources, as the City lacked the budget to fund all the needed initiatives to help victims. She commended Chief Stanley and her staff for their efforts. A motion was made by Vice Mayor L. Martin, seconded by Commissioner M. Dunn, that this Resolution be approved. The motion carried by the following vote: Yes: Commissioner M. Dunn, Vice Mayor L. Martin, and Mayor K. Thurston3 - Absent: Commissioner D. Grant, and Commissioner S. Martin2 - Abstain: 0 13. RESOLUTION NO. 24R-03-45: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LAUDERHILL APPROVING THE PROPOSAL FROM THE SOLE SOURCE PROVIDER, MOSS KELLEY, INC/MKI SERVICES, INC.

RES-24R-03-46-BRD-Young Professional Advisory 2024 Board itself & Comm as Whole.pdf AR 24R-03-46 Young Professional Advisory Board List Prince, Neasha - YPAB Application Roache, Ashley - YPAB Application Attachments: Commissioner Dunn recommended that future appointees to the Lauderhill Youth Council, and the Lauderhill Young Professional Advisory Board attend the meeting at which their appointment would be approved. Deputy City Clerk Nadia Chin indicated city staff did notify the potential appointees, but it was their decision whether or not to attend the Commission meeting. Commissioner Dunn remarked if they failed to show up for the meeting, then she would not vote for them, as part of their training was in leadership and ethics, preparing them to serve in future leadership roles. Vice Mayor L. Martin pointed out in some cases the names were being read into the record, and, had there been no added appointee, the item would have been approved on the Consent Agenda. Mayor Thurston understood Commissioner Dunn’s position, but he thought it unfair to ask a young person to attend a Commission meeting at 6:00 p.m., but the item specific to them was not considered until 9:00 p.m. Thus, the rules of operation needed to be tighter, whereby, if an item was specifically related to young persons, it should be dealt with earlier in the agenda. He said this was a matter that could be put to a workshop, and it should not affect the subject item being voted on. Page 12City of Lauderhill

March 25, 2024City Commission Meeting Meeting Minutes - Final Vice Mayor L. Martin concurred, adding the Commission previously approved the appointment of advisory board members despite them being absent at the time of their appointment, and giving appointees present in the Chambers a chance to speak if they wished, but, across the board, most appointees did not attend. If the City wished to take a position that future advisory board appointees had to attend the Commission meeting at which their appointment was being approved, it should be a practice implemented across the board, with proper noticing to appointees. He doubted Ashley Roache was told she had to attend the present Commission meeting. Commissioner Dunn agreed the wisest course of action was to workshop the matter. A motion was made by Vice Mayor L. Martin, seconded by Mayor K. Thurston, that this Resolution be approved. The motion carried by the following vote: Yes: Commissioner M. Dunn, Vice Mayor L. Martin, and Mayor K. Thurston3 - Absent: Commissioner D. Grant, and Commissioner S. Martin2 - Abstain: 0 Commissioner Dunn requested the matter be added to the next workshop agenda, specifically with regard to the Lauderhill Youth Council, and the Lauderhill Young Professional Advisory Board, both of whom were being trained in leadership skills, proper professional etiquette when serving on a board, etc. 15.
