Installation of acoustical treatments designed to reduce aircraft noise levels to a home’s interior. Individual upgrades
may include windows, doors and ventilation systems. In accordance with County Commission policy to provide
neighborhood cohesion, it is recommended that all 1,706 units be eligible for sound insulation without requiring an
avigation easement. There is no monetary cost to the individual property owners for sound insulation. Property owners
may incur fees to review the Homeowner Participation Agreement, replacement of window coverings or the cost
associated with the repair of code violations identified during the design process.

MARSHALLS EVERGLADE MOBILE HOME PARK (MHP)
Sound insulation of mobile home units is not feasible. Acquisition of Marshalls Everglade MHP and the mobile home units
with relocation of the residents is recommended. The County will request the City of Dania Beach to rezone the land to a
compatible use. Proceeds from the sale of the land will be returned to the Noise Mitigation Fund. There are 42 units
located within the 65 DNL contour and 56 units located outside the 65 DNL contour. In accordance with County Commission
policy to provide neighborhood cohesion, it is recommended that an offer be made to purchase the mobile home park
land and all 98 units.
Estimated Cost: $13 million1 – no change

relocation of the residents is recommended. The County will request the City of Dania Beach to rezone the land to a
compatible use. Proceeds from the sale of the land will be returned to the Noise Mitigation Fund. The site is located
primarily outside the 65 DNL and involves complex components of ownership. There are 47 units located within the 65 DNL
contour and 222 units located outside the 65 DNL contour. In accordance with County Commission policy to provide
neighborhood cohesion, it is recommended that an offer be made to purchase the mobile home park land and all 269 units.

If a homeowner located within the 65+ DNL contour wishes to sell their property and relocate, the County will assist them
with the sale of their property on the open real estate market for Fair Market Value (FMV). The FAA requires that an
avigation easement be given in exchange for participation in this program. BCAD is challenging the FAA regarding the
requirement of the easement.
A recent market absorption study for the noise impacted area shows a maximum of 22 properties per year could be sold
through this type of program to avoid market saturation. In accordance with County Commission policy to provide noise
mitigation in excess of the minimum federal standards, BCAD recommends implementation of this program.
Estimated Cost: $56 million2
Schedule: Implementation begins 2011; End date determined by market absorption rate
Maximum of 22 properties per year are eligible based on market absorption rate (March 2010)

1. Homeowner enters Sales Assistance Program by signing an agreement with Broward
County which includes: Requiring Homeowner to list property at FMV
The County will provide a differential to assist in the sale of the property if seller receives an
offer of less than FMV
Homeowner agrees to participate in Sound Insulation Program
2. The County orders appraisal of the property to determine FMV. The appraisal will be
conducted according to guidelines contained in the Uniform Relocation Assistance and
Real Property Acquisition Policies Act, as amended
3. Homeowner lists property for sale on the open real estate market at FMV
4. Homeowner receives an offer to purchase the property: The County will pay closing costs
The County will also provide a sales differential of the difference between the FMV and the
sales price, if the owner sells for less than FMV.
Homeowner conveys avigation easement to County
Advantages:
Allows Homeowners to relocate outside of Noise Impact Area
Maintains neighborhood stability

Sales Assistance Recommended Because…
Maintains the City of Dania Beach’s ad valorem tax base by keeping ownership
with individuals instead of County ownership
Stabilizes existing community by avoiding vacant properties
Maintains property values by not saturating the housing market
Maintains property values by seeking market value on the sale of the property
Allows homeowners to receive benefits of sound insulation until property can be sold
Avoids lengthy and costly property management and maintenance fees

Market Absorption Rate Study
A market absorption study was conducted of the
Noise Impact Area to determine the rate at which
noise impacted properties located in the 65+ DNL
noise contour can be expected to sell on the open
market. This study determined that a maximum of 22
properties per year could be sold and not affect
market conditions.
The Noise Impact Area is comprised of three distinct
neighborhoods which contain 571 single-family homes
and 286 duplex units.
