Concerned Hollywood residents are at odds with the City Commission over the legitimate des-ignation of Holly-wood as an official “Tree City.”

For the past 30 years, Hollywood has re-ceived a Tree City USA designa-tion from the Arbor Day Founda-tion for meeting tree planting and tree maintenance requirements.

The benefits from a Tree City designation include creating a framework for action, educa-tion, a positive public image,

citizen pride and possible federal funding, according to the Arbor Day Foundation Web site.

While the designation shows Hollywood’s commitment to becoming a “green” city, Hol-lywood’s Green Team Advisory Committee feels the City can do more.

Since its inception in fall 2006, the Green Team has recommended ways to conserve natural resources in an attempt to alleviate the effects of global warming and promote urban sustainability in Hollywood.

Lee Gottlieb, a two-year member of the Green Team, said the committee spent a lot of time reviewing the City’s tree ordi-nance and found that Hollywood has an antiquated ordinance it hasn’t updated in five years. He said this not only affects tree pro-tection but also shows the City does not deserve the Tree City designation.

Hollywood’s ‘Tree City USA’ designation under scrutiny

by Caron ConwayLead Correspondent

Plans for the opening of the first public school to be built in Hollywood in 40 years remain on course as the City and the Broward County School Board negotiate a crucial issue concern-ing the number of seats they will designate for students who live in Hollywood.

New School “C,” which is

under construction and sched-uled to open in the fall, will be a Montessori magnet school open to children in pre-kindergarten through eighth grade who live south of Interstate 595.

The opening of the school in the Lincoln Park neighborhood will be historic in another respect: it’s Broward’s first K-8 school that is neither a private facility nor a charter school, which is publicly funded and privately run.

The school’s Montessori approach, in which the unique-ness of each child is emphasized

Since April 2008, Hollywood Gazette and Dave & Buster’s have teamed up with local nonprofits in the community to raise funds and awareness for charities in a business-networking style envi-ronment.

Hollywood Gazette recently selected Marika Guyton to assist in coordinating the Gazette’s monthly Party with a Purpose networking events. Guy-ton, an active community member, is the owner of It’s All About You, a private and corporate event planning company based in Hollywood. She also serves on the board of the Liberia Economic and Social Development; Profes-sionals Educating and Advocating Respect in Relationships; and coordinates events for the Greater Hollywood Chamber of Com-merce.

Guyton will be responsible for promoting the Party with a Purpose events, as well as select-ing the charity the event will ben-efit. She will select charities based on the impact they have on Holly-wood and their ability to promote the event to their supporters.

In the past, nonprofits have raised an average of $500 during the two-hour event, which features food, half-price drinks, door prizes, billiards and shuffleboard compliments of Dave & Buster’s. And since April 2008, the events raised nearly $10,000 for local charities.

The next two events will be held Wednesday, Feb. 17, which will benefit Diamonds in the Rough, and Wednesday, March 17, which will benefit the Broward Outreach Center, at the Oakwood Plaza Dave & Buster’s from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. The cost to attend is a $10 donation, with 100 percent of the pro-ceeds donated directly to the selected charities.

Given the ever-escalating cost of insur-ance and health care benefits, Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are becoming one of the most effective methods for reducing health care costs for both individuals and small business own-ers. HSAs offer a tax-favorable way for eligible individuals to set aside funds, or have their employer do so, to meet future medical needs. Here are the key tax-related elements:

• Contributions you make to an HSA are deductible, with limits,

• Contributions your employer makes aren’t taxed to you,

• Earnings on the funds within the HSA are not taxed, and

• Distributions from the HSA to cover qualified medical expenses are not taxed.

Who is eligible? To be eligible for an HSA, you must be covered by a “high-deductible health plan,” as discussed below. Also, you must not be covered by a plan which (1) is not a high-deductible health plan, and (2) provides coverage for any benefit covered by your high- deductible plan. If an individual is enrolled in Medicare, he or she is no longer an eligible indi-vidual under the HSA rules. Therefore, contribu-tions to an HSA can no longer be made.

For 2009, a “high-deductible health plan” is a plan with an annual deductible of at least $1,150 for self-only coverage or at least $2,300 for family coverage. For self-only coverage, the 2009 limit on deductible contributions is $3,000. For family coverage, the 2009 limit on deduct-ible contributions is $5,950. Additionally, an-nual out-of-pocket expenses required to be paid (other than for premiums) for covered benefits cannot exceed $5,800 for self-only coverage or $11,600 for family coverage.

An individual (and the individual’s covered spouse) who has reached age 55 before the close of the tax year, and is an eligible HSA contribu-tor, may make additional “catch-up” contribu-tions for 2009 of up to $1,000.

Deduction limits. You can deduct contri-butions to an HSA for the year up to the total of your monthly limitations for the months you were eligible. For 2009, the monthly limitation on deductible contributions for a person with self-only coverage is 1/12 of $3,000. For an individual with family coverage, the monthly limitation on deductible contributions is 1/12 of $5,950.

Contributions may be made to an HSA by or on behalf of an eligible individual even if the individual has no compensation or if the contributions exceed the individual’s compensa-tion. Contributions made by a family member on behalf of an eligible individual to an HSA (which are subject to the limits described above) are deductible by the eligible individual in com-puting adjusted gross income.

Rollovers from IRAs, FSAs, and HRAs. For a limited period from Dec. 20, 2006, to Dec. 31, 2011, an eligible individual can make a one-time transfer of amounts from a health flexible spending arrangement (health FSA) or health reimbursement arrangement (HRA) to an HSA. The amount transferred is subject to statutory limits.

Similarly, on a once-only basis, taxpayers can withdraw funds from an IRA and transfer them tax-free to an HSA. The amount trans-ferred can be up to the maximum deductible HSA contribution for the type of coverage in effect at the time of the transfer. The amount so transferred is excluded from the taxpayer’s gross income and is not subject to the 10 percent early withdrawal penalty.

Employer contributions. If you are an eligible individual and your employer contrib-utes to your HSA, the employer’s contribution is treated as employer-provided coverage for medical expenses under an accident or health plan and is excludable from your gross income up to the deduction limitation, as described above. Further, the employer contributions are not subject to withholding from wages for income tax or subject to FICA or FUTA. The eligible individual cannot deduct employer contributions on his federal income tax return as HSA contributions or as medical expense deductions.

An employer that decides to make con-tributions on its employees’ behalf must make comparable contributions to the HSAs of all comparable participating employees for that calendar year. If the employer does not make comparable contributions, the employer is sub-ject to a 35 percent tax on the aggregate amount contributed by the employer to HSAs for that period.

Earnings. If the HSA is set up properly, it is generally exempt from taxation, and there is no tax on earnings. However, taxes may apply if contribution limitations are exceeded, required reports are not provided or prohibited transac-tions occur.

Distributions. Distributions from the HSA to cover an eligible individual’s qualified medi-cal expenses, or those of his spouse or depen-dents, are not taxed. Qualified medical expenses for these purposes generally mean those that would qualify for the medical expense itemized deduction. If funds are withdrawn from the HSA for other reasons, the withdrawal is taxable. Ad-ditionally, an extra 10 percent tax will apply to the withdrawal, unless it is made after reaching age 65 or in the event of death or disability.

And, finally, more good news about HSAs: any left-over money carries forward in your HSA account to future years and is not lost! It’s yours to spend on future health care costs.

Please be sure to consult with your tax professional and your health insurance provider prior to setting up an HSA account.

The Florida Agency for Workforce Innovation, in partnership with the Florida Department of Children and Families, Work-force Florida, Inc. and WorkForce One Em-ployment Solutions, are joining together to introduce the Florida Back to Work program designed to bolster businesses and bring jobs to Broward County.

Broward County employers looking to expand their businesses who hire employees through this program will receive a reim-bursement of up to 95 percent of employee wages and benefits.

general Program guidelines:

• Public, private, for-profit and nonprofit employers who are adding new positions are eligible.

• Employers pay the wage and benefit costs, and the program reimburses up to 95 percent of those payments according to an agreement negotiated in advance.

• The wage/salary level must be based on that paid by the employer for comparable posi-tions doing comparable work. The employer cannot have laid off employees in the same

or similar position.

• All job openings will be posted on Employ Florida Marketplace.

• Employers who wish to participate will need to complete a project application that details the number and type of subsidized positions requested, the job skill sets of the positions and the wage and benefit cost by position • Employers will provide a written commit-ment to provide a funding contribution equal to the project amount not reimbursed by the Florida Back to Work program.

All employers with at least one job available are encouraged to apply. Funding for this program is available through Sept. 30 with no subsidies available beyond this date. The expectation for private, for-profit employers is that the subsidized position is an anticipated permanent job and that the employer intends to retain employees whose job performance is satisfactory.

For more information, contact Work-Force One Employment at 954-677-JOBS (5627), [email protected] or www.wf1broward.com.

95 Express bus service connects Hollywood with the heart of Miami

Launched Jan. 25, the new 95 Express Bus service has helped thousands who commute between Broward and Miami-Dade counties reduce travel time and save money.

The fleet of 95 Express buses takes riders from key points in south and west Broward – including several Hollywood locations – directly to Downtown Miami and back during peak driving times.

The new hybrid buses use the 95 Express lanes that allow vehicles to travel an average of 16 mph faster than the conventional I-95 lanes based on current northbound conditions. The additional bus riders also mean fewer cars on the road to relieve overall highway congestion.

“There’s been a need for direct bus routes to the heart of Miami for many years and now we have the much-needed funding to do it right,” said Jim Udvardy, project manager of South Florida Commuter Services, an arm of Florida’s Department of Transportation. “It’s a wonderful, time-saving and money-saving option for commuters.”

The Federal Transit Administration and the Florida Department of Transportation fund the new express routes. Bus fares cost $2.35 for a one-way fare, with monthly passes available. For more information, visit 95Express.com or call 1-877-95X-FDOT.

With the mailing of Census 2010 forms next month, Broward County officials are urging residents to fill out the new streamlined forms that will take 10 minutes to complete. Neglecting to do so could result in the loss of millions of dollars for Broward County.

According to the 2000 Census Monitoring Board, the undercount for the 2000 Census in Broward County was about 20,000 people. For just one uncounted person, the board estimated a loss in funding of $1,300 per year, which meant a loss in funding for Broward County of $26 million per year and more than $260 million over ten years.

Governments use Census data to allocate billions of dollars in funding for education, public safety, housing, roads and bridges, human services and community services. Community organizations use Census data to develop social service programs for seniors and children, and businesses use it to identify where to locate factories, shopping centers, movie theaters, banks and offices – activities that lead to new jobs. Census data is also used to determine representation in the federal and state legislatures.

So, undercounting results in underrepresentation.

Since August 2008, the Broward County 2010 Complete Count Committee has worked on educating the public about the importance of all residents completing and mailing their Census form. Comprised of nine subcommittees and drawing from community organizations, media partners, municipalities, businesses and other parts of the community, the 200-plus members of the Complete Count Committee are collectively spreading the word about the importance of the Census and getting an accurate count.

The U.S. Constitution requires a national Census count and Census forms are mailed to every household in March of the year that it’s conducted. In Broward County, more than 800,000 housing units will receive the Census forms, which ask

for the name, gender, age, race, ethnicity and relationship to the householder, and whether the householder owns or rents his or her home.

“U.S. Census Day is April 1, 2010, and I must urge you to please fill out your Census form that will arrive in the mail,” said Broward County Commissioner Sue Gunzburger. “By filling out the Census form, you’re helping your country and your community.”

Any Broward County organization, civic group, business or homeowners association wishing to learn more about the 2010 Census should contact the Complete Count Committee and request a speaker. Visit www.broward.org/census, call Scott Medvin at 954-357-8550, or e-mail [email protected] for more information.

2010 Census vital to fund community projects, enhance social services

for just one uncounted person in Broward, there is an estimated loss in funding of $1,300 per year.

Broward county commissioner and chair of the Broward county complete count committee ilene lieberman spoke on the importance of completing census forms at a partners expo last month that promoted this year’s census in Broward county.

Imagine a simple ingredient that is found in nature, does not require a prescription, costs very little, and affects many aspects of human health. This miraculous panacea is Omega-3 fatty acids such as EPA and DHA, which are naturally-occurring substances found in coldwater fish, wild game, flax, hemp and chia seeds, and walnuts. Scientists report that Omega-3 fatty acids significantly diminish the production and effectiveness of various prostaglandins, hormone-like substances produced by the body, which can increase inflammation. Omega-3s

prevent and relieve painful conditions like arthritis, prostatitis, cystitis and anything else ending in “-itis”. Other studies have shown that Omega-3s help protect from heart attacks and strokes, lower cholesterol, better brain and immune function, alleviate the symptoms of depression and ADHD, decrease the incidence of brain, colon and prostate cancers, aid weight loss and assist in a variety of other health conditions . Three grams of total EPA/DHA daily are considered safe and many studies used substantially higher doses without major side

effects. Due to the blood-thinning properties of the oil, very large doses can lead to hemorrhagic stroke and increased bleeding in patients also taking aspirin and warfarin, and are not recommended in congestive heart failure. If you do not get at least 1 gram of DHA/EPA through your diet, consider supplementing with Omega-3 capsules, which are widely available with many companies now offering them in chewable form. Look for molecularly distilled fish oil or organic flax oils to avoid contamination with mercury and pesticides.

One Hollywood restaurateur is on a mission to nourish spirits as well as bodies.

Oscar de Cardenas, owner of Sub City on Hollywood Boulevard, has delivered hope along with warm clothing to the homeless in Hollywood and Miami since temperatures started dropping in December.

De Cardenas has personally distributed hundreds of basic necessities – including jackets, sweaters, blankets and shoes – over the course of about a half-dozen trips to Hollywood, Downtown Miami and the Broward Outreach Center in Hollywood.

Caring Sub City customers, responding to de Cardenas’ simple plea to help those living on the street during a time of uncharacteristically cold weather, donated the items.

“I put a sign on the door, and it’s worked,” de Cardenas said.

The Hialeah resident’s philanthropic efforts began about four years ago following a large Thanksgiving dinner with family. De Cardenas said he was inspired to help feed the local homeless population “when I saw so much food was going to get thrown away.” Instead, he put the potential waste to good use, distributing his family’s Thanksgiving leftovers to people living on the streets of Miami.

On another occasion, de Cardenas and his brother Jorge purchased close to 100 cheeseburgers from a fast-food restaurant and several cases of water, which they handed out among the homeless. Jorge de Cardenas also is conducting a separate clothing drive at his own business, a convenience store in Miami Springs.

During a run to Miami last month, Oscar de Cardenas sweetened his clothing distribution with batches of cookies and cups of coffee.

“The people were so, so grateful,” he said. “I do it to help others that are in need. God touched my heart.”

De Cardenas got the idea for the clothing drive during South Florida’s first cold spell in December. It was after 9 p.m. and he and his wife, Mariela, had just finished dinner at a restaurant. It suddenly hit him that they would be returning to the warmth and comfort of their home while so many people were suffering with neither shelter nor adequate clothing to brave the elements.

And so, de Cardenas gathered up some warm items and “we drove up as a family,” he recalled.

Since being exposed to the homeless problem, de Cardenas’ daughters Victoria, 15, and Cristina, 10, “ask questions, and I try to answer them the best I can,” he said. “They realize that, yeah, we’ve got what we need and much more, and we’ve got to share.”

De Cardenas said the homeless population in Hollywood is sometimes difficult to find because they tend to be scattered and move around frequently, as opposed to congregating in established camps. And now, whenever he notices someone walking around with a backpack, it gives him pause to wonder about that person’s circumstances.

“You just don’t know whose backpack has their whole life in there,” he said.

De Cardenas said the people that he’s come in contact with on the streets of Hollywood and Miami have been very thankful for the concern he shows them.

“Some of them have told me a little about their story, and I stop and pray with them,” he said.

De Cardenas is hoping that generous donations from the public will enable him to continue his deliveries to the homeless members of the South Florida community throughout the winter season and beyond.

“As long as it’s coming in, I’ll do it,” he said.

De Cardenas also hopes that, through his efforts, others will realize there’s a need out there and be inspired to take action.

“Maybe God will touch their heart to do something,” he said.

Wee-words, a company that strives to introduce art to children, hosted a “We Love Kid’s Art” event last month to help Hollywood children create Valentine’s cards and cultivate their creativity.

The event, held at Jump & Gym in the Oakwood Plaza, attracted kids ranging in age from 1 to 12 years old and inspired them to use their imagination.

“We encourage and invite children of all ages to explore their creativity by using different art materials appropriate to the child’s age,” said Caren Horvitz, co-owner of wee-words.

The company has held art parties since 2009 and

displays some of the children’s designs on their Web site at www.wee-words.com. For more information, contact co-owner Gloria Mallardi at [email protected] or 954-328-0332.

Canadians recently came to Hollywood Beach to celebrate their culture during the 2010 CanadaFest. Extending more than a mile from

Charnow Park to New York Street, the event attracted around 150,000 people and featured 100 merchant kiosks and live musical performances.

CanadaFest is a nonprofit organization that aims to entertain Florida

residents and tourists in the hopes of providing cultural diversity to Floridians through exposure to the French Canadian culture. It also aims to advertise the multitude of products offered to the French Canadians in the region.

The rain couldn’t stop around 200 people from trickling in and making donations during a relief rally held last month for the victims of the earthquake in Haiti.

The City of Hollywood and Hollywood Cares, Inc., an organization created by Temple Beth El and the First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood that supports orphanages and a school in Haiti, organized the rally at the ArtsPark at Young Circle and collected approximately $2,000 for the American Red Cross and a

truck and a half of food for Food for the Poor.

“The purpose of this rally (was) to show that people in the tri-county area are united in their effort to assist the victims of this tragedy, and the need to raise funds is greater than ever,” said Mayor Peter Bober in an e-mail.

With donations drop-offs still scattered around the City, all residents are encouraged to donate what they can to help the people affected by this tragedy.

Following the recent demise of the Ocean Properties project, the City of Hollywood is once again (and it is hoped for the last time) facing the challenge of choosing a project for the City- owned, 6-acre site on Johnson Street from a new pool of four proposers.

While no specific uses were mandated by the City for this prime development site except for the replacement of 500 to 600 public parking spaces, the RFP (Request for Proposal) did identify a preference for “a mix of uses that will serve as a catalyst for the continued vitality and evolution of the central beach area.” Included in the preference was the addition of some kind of public benefit. Examples of such public use offerings include the renovation and programming of the Bandshell theater and the provision of public rest rooms along the Broadwalk.

In consideration of leasing the Johnson Street site on a long-term basis, the City’s major criteria for selection will include: a) disposition revenues and revenue from real estate taxes directly generated by the

project, b) the character of the proposed development and c) the developer’s capacity to implement the project.

To facilitate the selection process, the

following scoring system was implemented:

1. Experience and track record of developer: 30 points

2. Demonstration of financial strength: 30 points

3. Project Proposal/Extent in which proposal program meets the City planning objective: 40 points.

The Hollywood Beach Business

Association looks forward with much anticipation to the unfolding of the selection process. And we wish to acknowledge the commendable and transparent manner in which the City, under the entrusted auspices of our Assistant City Manager Cathy Swanson-Rivenbark, has navigated this very challenging process. We hope and trust that this process will culminate in the highest and best service to and interest of The city of Hollywood.

Hollywood’s longest-serving Commissioner Dick Blattner has influenced both the City’s municipal government and community outreach programs through his hands-on-approach to community leadership since the early 1990s.

Blattner, who was first elected to the City Commission in 1994, took a seven-year hiatus from the Commission beginning in 2000, during which time he still influenced the City and county through several advisory board positions.

But when Blattner had an opportunity to return to the City Commission in early 2007 by running for the seat vacated by suspended Commissioner Keith Wasserstrom, “I didn’t hesitate at all,” he said.

It’s a decision that Blattner hasn’t regretted.

“I’ve enjoyed the last two years more than all the other years I was on the Commission,” he said.

Blattner praised the leadership of Mayor Peter Bober for largely contributing to a Commission Chambers environment that is characterized by more congeniality

and a spirit of fairness, equality and sharing.

Simply put, “It’s not contentious,” Blattner said. “The last couple of meetings have been almost intellectual in terms of the depth of the discussions. I walk out of the meetings and I’m smiling and I’m happy.”

He said while the City does still face certain challenges, the Commission’s

Hollywood’s District 4

The City of Hollywood is inviting residents to share their budget ideas for fiscal year 2011 during a Citizen’s Budget Workshop to be held on Tuesday, Feb. 23 at the Hollywood Central Performing Arts Center (1770 Monroe St.).

In the current fiscal year (2010), the operating budget for the City is $344.7 million, an increase of 3.3 percent from last year’s operating

budget. The operating budget includes funding for a total of 1,383 full-time employees and for various operations throughout the City, which include water/sewer services, streets and public facility maintenance, parks and recreation, parking services, and public safety operations.

Residents will have the opportunity to present their ideas to the City Commission and staff during this workshop, which takes place from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Interested individuals should

submit ideas to the Office of Budget and Procurement Services by Feb. 9 to allow all suggestions to be incorporated into a presentation. A member of the City’s Financial Intervention and Resource Strategy Team (F.I.R.S.T.) will contact the individuals who submit suggestions.

For more information on the City’s operating budget, contact the Office of Budget and Procurement Services at 954-921-3206 or visit the City’s Web site at www.HollywoodFL.org.

Commissioner won’t shy from issuesattitude is one of “let’s fix it intelligently.”

“We’re going to face issues of budgets for the next couple of years. What it’s causing us to do is really establish priorities,” he said.

Blattner said these priorities include infrastructure needs, economic development and the best use of revenues from the City’s economic engine, Hollywood Beach.

Commissioner Blattner said he’s very proud of his role in changing the way the Community Redevelopment Agency is structured in the wake of the recent shakeup that resulted in the firing of the former Beach CRA director, commission-approved extensive audits of both the Beach and Downtown CRA districts, and strict accountability to the City Manager’s office.

Although the vast majority of CRAs in Florida directly report to their municipality’s city manager or strong mayor, Blattner took heat from some residents over his attempts during the past two years to make changes to the CRA, which previously was only overseen by City Commissioners sitting as the CRA Board at monthly meetings.

“They were afraid that we would micromanage it,” Blattner said. “I didn’t want to micromanage the CRA. I wanted

the CRA director to report to somebody on a daily basis. (Now) on a day-to-day basis, the City Manager and his staff will know what’s going on.”

Blattner is also pleased with his role in implementing professional, outsourced ethics training for Commissioners and all city employees.

“I stimulated a lot of discussion on ethics. The reason I’m here is because of an ethical issue,” he said, referring to the special election held after Wasserstrom was suspended from office on official misconduct charges for not fully disclosing his relationship with a sludge-processing firm that he helped win a city contract.

When Blattner was first elected to the City Commission in 1994 and again in 1998, Hollywood did not have a district form of government. And although he has officially represented District 4 since his re-election in 2007 and 2008, Blattner said he has always considered himself a citywide Commissioner.

In fact, since October, Blattner has extended a monthly invitation to any interested residents who’d like to meet with him over lunch, and Blattner even foots the bill. Since November 2007, he has also written a monthly blog, sent out in an e-mail, in which he updates residents on recent Commission actions and other

local developments, spotlights Hollywood events and businesses, and even recommends good books that he’s read.

Blattner’s involvement in his community extends far beyond the Commission platform to include serving as a member of a handful of organizations in Broward County. He is also the vice chair of the Broward County YMCA and past chairman of the Greater Hollywood Family YMCA.

Because of his commitment to the community, Blattner has also been honored with the United Way’s “Volunteer of the Year” and the American Jewish Congress’ “Man of the Year” award.

Blattner’s most visible role, however, is that of City Commissioner, a four-year term he won without opposition in 2008 and to which he is committed to “looking for ways of doing things efficiently with more common sense and more accountability.”

And when people ask how the City of Hollywood is doing, Blattner says Hollywood is on the right track to accomplishing its goals.

“We’re not shying away from our issues. We know what we have to do.”

He said Hollywood lacks a tree committee capable of making informed decisions about tree management and maintenance– the first requirement for Tree City USA eligibility.

A review board comprised of ar-borists, botanists and environmentalists, he said, is the best way to make edu-cated decisions about tree planting and removal, and, in turn, rightfully earn the Tree City designation.

“Hollywood doesn’t deserve the award. The Green Team wants to bring the ordinance up to date to bring protec-tion to Florida trees,” he said. “Without a board made up of people who know the right trees and right places to plant them, you get uninformed decisions. ”

Samuel Uccello, chair of the Green Team, said the City needs to revise its tree code and create a tree committee, but that the City isn’t taking the neces-sary measures to ensure it happens in a timely manner.

“Our ultimate goal is not Tree City USA,” Uccello said. “Our ultimate goal is protecting our trees and planting more trees. We don’t think the City is doing enough to make that happen.”

The City, however, doesn’t think creating another committee is the right action to take.

City spokeswoman Raelin Storey said city governments often get criti-cized for being too bureaucratic. She said adding another level to the organi-zational structure could slow the process of addressing the Green Team’s concerns and taking action. She said the City is actively looking into how Hollywood should handle their appeals.

And since the City has four certified arborists on its Public Works staff, she said that Hollywood meets the Tree City USA committee requirements, quali-fying Hollywood for the designation and helping Hollywood protect its tree canopy as well.

“We think we have a good system in place, and we feel that we have the staff-ing that’s addressing their concerns,” Storey said.

She also said Mayor Bober stated he wanted to plant 5,000 trees while in office, and the City has already planted half.

While Uccello has found some will-ingness from the City to address these

issues, he said he would love to work more closely with the City Commission-ers to further reduce Hollywood’s carbon footprint.

Gottlieb said that in order to make these improvements, City departments need better communication and less fragmentation. He thinks listening to the recommendations of the Green Team can make Hollywood a greener city.

While the Green Team continues to do its part in helping Hollywood “go green,” Uccello said every Hollywood resident can do his or her part to help the City through conserving and recycling.

“We’re all trying to help reduce our carbon footprints, but we can all do bet-ter,” he said.

and students learn at their own pace in a prepared environment also makes it unique.

The district has only two existing Montessori schools: Sunrise Middle and Virginia Shuman Young Elementary in Fort Lauderdale, which cur-rently has more than 100 Hollywood residents and a waiting list of nearly 900 students. It is hoped that the K-8 Montessori model in Hollywood will attract students from private and charter schools at a critical time of declining public school enroll-ment.

The composition of the new school’s enroll-ment has been at the heart of a debate between City Commissioners and School Board members. In December, the School Board voted to set aside 150 of the 750 seats at School “C” for students living in the South Broward High School feeder pattern. But Hollywood Commissioners want 50 percent of the school’s enrollment designated for their residents.

In addition, the Broward County School District needs a lease from Hollywood for the school property, which includes a city park. The City Commission’s Dec. 16 vote on the second amendment to the 50-year lease agreement was characterized as a “counter-offer” by Commis-sioner Heidi O’Sheehan, the City Commission liaison to the School Board.

She urged parents – many of whom feared that the school’s opening would be jeopardized if Commissioners refused to “approve what the School Board wants” – not to fall for any “fear tactic.”

“I think it’s a bluff,” O’Sheehan told parents who attended the Commission meeting. “I think they’re trying to manipulate you into opposing the people that are trying to help you ensure that your children actually win the lottery and get into the school.”

O’Sheehan stressed that the lease agreement between the City and the School Board strengthens Hollywood’s position.

“Our only leverage to ask for any protections for our residents is the fact that part of this building and facilities of the school are City property that we have leased to them at no cost,” she said. “What we are trying to do is make sure that our residents are getting a value for our contribution of land to the School Board and some recognition that we are partners in this.”

The new state-of-the-art school, which is located just west of Dixie High-

way and south of Johnson Street at 2230 Lincoln St., was originally intended to be a traditional neighborhood school. And some Lincoln Park residents have expressed concerns about traffic that will be generated by the new school, particu-larly with regard to school buses.

Another key issue is the hours that the site’s 4.7-acre park, a shared-use facility, will be avail-able to the public on school days.

“Even though it’s going to be a Montessori school, it’s still a park for the neighborhood,” said Vice Mayor Beam Furr.

Furr and Commissioner Dick Blattner also echoed the concerns of some residents that demanding 50 percent of the seats for Hollywood students could adversely affect enrollment at local elementary schools such as Oakridge and Hol-lywood Central.

“You’re putting those schools at risk. We don’t want to do that,” Furr said.

O’Sheehan said that in the absence of data showing that a 50 percent designation for Holly-wood students would drain other school enroll-ments, Commissioners owed it to their residents to “explore the option of a further negotiation” with the School Board.

“We have no way – absolutely no way – of knowing where the students who apply to this school will come from,” O’Sheehan said.

The application process for New School “C” began Dec. 2 and will run through Feb. 17. In the meantime, School Board Chair Jennifer Gottlieb promised to address the City Commissioners’ concerns. The district’s attendance-zone bound-ary hearings were scheduled to start at the end of January.

“I look forward to your staff working with my staff and resolving whatever the outstanding issues are,” Gottlieb told Commissioners. “I know that when this is all said and done, the residents, the parents, everybody will be pleased.”

Buyer Bewarean advertisement reading “teacup Puppies for adoption” appeared in the January 2010 issue volume iX No. 5 on page 19. one of our readers responded to the ad and brought to our attention the illegitimacy of this advertisement. We have reported the advertiser to the internet Crime Complaint Center (in partnership with the fbi) and apologize for any one who may have been mislead.

Erroran advertorial appeared in the January 2010 issue volume iX No. 5 on page 9 which erroneously referred to simvastatin as a ‘blood pressure medication.’ simvastatin is, in fact, prescribed as a cholesterol-lowering drug and not blood pressure medication.

We thank readers Judith Glassman and Mark Kmetzko for bringing these issues to our attention.
