Settle Your Code Enforcement Fines at a DiscountBy Sandra King, Public Information Officer
The City of Pompano Beach is
offering residents an opportunity
to erase financial burdens on their
properties at significantly discount-
ed payoff amounts . The Amnesty
Program is an effort to bring more
properties in compliance which will
help the City continue to maintain
its neighborhoods, protect property
values and preserve quality of life
for its residents .
The Pompano Beach City
Commission passed a resolution on
January 26th offering a temporary
period of amnesty for code
enforcement fines . Owners of
properties that are in compliance
with their code cases may settle
their debt to the City by
paying the lesser of 25% of the face
value of the lien or a flat $500 . The
Code Enforcement Lien Amnesty
Program will be in effect from
February 18th until August 18th, 2010 .
Property owners will also be
provided an option to settle the
reduced amount under the Amnesty
Program via a payment plan with a
six month payment term . Owners
of non-compliant properties that
are brought into compliance during
this Amnesty Program are also
eligible to settle their accrued
code liens in accordance with
program guidelines, based upon
their compliance date, as issued
by the case code enforcement
inspector . Compliance will be
verified by the code enforcement
inspector, prior to the execution of
the order to reduce the code lien
amount .
Property owners who simultane-
ously have Code Enforcement Liens,
Nuisance Abatement and Unsafe
Structure Liens on their property
must settle the Nuisance Abatement
and/or Unsafe Structure Liens, in
full, prior to receiving a reduction in
the outstanding Code Enforcement
Lien amount .
Take advantage of this limited time
offer to settle your Code Enforce-
ment Lien for a significant discount!

the CRA was created, the value of
the property in the CRA district
was established as the “base year”
amount . Property taxes received in
subsequent years over the base year
amount (called the tax increment) go
to the City and County that then pay

WOW Award
The 2010 Pompano Proud WOW Award for Home Beautification has been presented to Timothy Wilson of 227 NE 16th Avenue . The house was built in 1950 by Tim’s father, Maxie Wright Wilson who was a carpenter and supervisor for a local company- Eustis Orr Construction .
When Tim inherited the family home, he decided to renovate the yard . He wanted hurricane resistant landscaping with low maintenance and little watering needs . He removed the grass and planted a variety of native trees and shrubs . Tim always had an interest in butterflies, so he planted specific plants to attract various species . Butterflies fill the yard . The Julia butterfly feed on Milkweed, Popcorn Cassia and Firebush . The established Wild Lime tree is the larval host for the Giant Swallow-tail . Backyard arbors support the unusual Dutchman Pipe Vine which attracts the Polydamus Swallow-tail and the native Purple Passion flower is food for the Zebra Longwing, our State Butterfly .
Hummingbirds are naturally attracted to the variety of nectar sources and birds feed on the seeds
of the Jamaican Caper trees .
The original mango and avocado trees that Tim’s mother and father planted over 50 years ago are still standing .
This Certified Wildlife Habitat yard naturally reseeds itself and Tim enjoys sharing native off springs
with his neighbors .
Pompano Proud, a beautification or-ganization, presents several WOW awards each year . The winner receives public recognition at a City Commission Meeting where Mayor Lamar Fisher presents the owner with a commendation . In addition, the winner is given a WOW award sign to display in front of their home, as well as a gift certificate to The Garden Gate to continue beautifying their landscape .
Thank you and congratulations to Tim for contributing to the
beautification of our City .

Pompano Beach residents will soon
enjoy their very own off leash dog
park! The City Commission recently
passed a change to the ordinance
providing for an area where dogs
can run, play and socialize with
other dogs off leash . The park will be
located at the NW corner of Federal
Highway and NE 10th Street .
Construction is underway and the
park should open in March .
The park will consist of an entry
area where dogs can be leashed and
unleashed prior to entering the main
areas . There will be two main areas
for off leash activity . One for large
dogs and the other for smaller dogs
(under 25 pounds) .
There are no plans to charge an
admission, so for the most part, this
will be a self policing park . That
means the patrons will need to be ex-
ceptionally courteous by immediate-
ly picking up after their dog, keeping
aggressive dogs at home and paying
close attention to their dog while in
the park . Many residents have hoped
and waited for their own Pompano
Beach dog park . Responsible dog
owners make an off leash park a fun
place to let their dogs run and play
with other dogs . It’s very important,
however, to keep a close eye on your
dog . Even the friendliest dogs can
become a nuisance to other patrons by
jumping on them . Personality clashes
between pets can result in injuries .
Park rules will be clearly posted
and the Animal Control Division will
patrol and respond to complaints .
Animal Control is pleased to have
a place to send those who want to
let their dogs run off leash . We will
aim to help keep the park a safe and
enjoyable place for responsible dog
owners . In anticipation of the
opening of the new dog park, The
Parks and Recreation Department
in cooperation with the Dog
Pack of Pompano Beach, Inc . will
offer a free 90 minute presentation
on dog park etiquette . It is offered
the first Monday of each month
at the Emma Lou Olson Civic
Center at 7:00 pm . Please call to
reserve your seat .
In addition, other dog training
classes will be offered including:
Puppy Kindergarten for dogs under
six months old, Beginner Obedience
for dogs over six months old and the
Canine Good Citizen Evaluation, an
American Kennel Club program for
dogs who know basic obedience .
For information about these
opportunities, visit our website at

Parks and Recreation at 954-786-4111 .

The Road with Many NamesBy Dan Hobby, Pompano Beach
Historical Society
It has, and still does, go by many names . East of Dixie Highway, it is just NE 3rd Street, but to the west it might be called Martin Luther King, Jr . Boulevard or Hammondville Road . Some old timers remember it as the Hammon Road, and to some it was simply the “Rock Road .”
During Pompano’s early years, the Dixie Highway was its north-south roadway to other cities, but to move east or west, local residents were forced to travel over what were little better than dirt footpaths . As long as the community remained small, and farmlands were nearby, this was adequate . However, as the town grew and farming became more lucrative, more and better roadways had to be built .
As early as 1900, local farmers were lobbying the Dade County government for improvements to the local roads . In 1907, Captain George Baker, the county commissioner representing the northern portion of Dade County, was able to convince his colleagues

Hiram Hammon
to fund a rock road for five miles west from Pompano .
The road was an extension of what at least one old map refers to as Statler Avenue . How the road got that name is anyone’s guess, since there does not appear to be any evidence of a Pompano resident by that name . In any case, it must not have been that significant to the locals, since the name was lost to history without any protest .
Hiram F . Hammon, had come to what is today Palm Beach around 1870, and is acknowledged to be one of its first settlers . For many years he was involved in agriculture and tourist-related activities around Palm Beach, but in 1919 he began growing beans, tomatoes, and eggplant at Canal Point, near Lake Okeechobee . Soon thereafter he acquired land west of Pompano .
The area that Hammon chose was so far out of town that it was impractical to transport farm workers from town to the fields every day, so he built quarters for his workers and a house for his supervisor . The small settlement soon was known as Hammonville, and would later contain a store and a school . Following his death in 1922, Hammon’s nephews, Pompano residents Horace P . and Wallace Robinson, directed the Hammon Development Company’s operations in Broward County .
The road from the Hammon farm to Pompano became known as the Hammon Road, or Hammonville Road . At some point (but certainly by the mid-1930’s), the name was corrupted with the insertion of a “d”; thus the current name, Hammondville Road .
Because of modern housing pat-terns, many current Pompano Beach
residents believe that the FEC Rail-road tracks constituted a dividing line between blacks and whites . Histori-cally, this was not always the case . Whites resided in several neighbor-hoods west of Dixie Highway, most notably in Monticello Park, and some black families lived east of the tracks, albeit for the most part in farm labor quarters . Likewise, Hammondville Road was a mixture of white and black businesses -- restaurants, bars, retail stores and grocery stores -- patronized by members of both races .
In the 1950s, as the Civil Rights movement began to gather steam, Pompano Beach’s black population was not unaware of its implications . Although segregation remained firmly in place, its petty humiliations were viewed as increasingly onerous, and with the economic hold of the farmers waning, Pompano Beach’s black residents, felt more free to protest the “old ways .”
Many festering issues came into public view when, in June 1966, the white owner of a Hammondville Road store slapped a black 10 year old . That night several hundred black youths staged protest, bottles and rocks were thrown and twenty- five arrested . The following evening over 100 law enforcement officers -- Pompano Beach Police and Broward County Sheriff Deputies marched four abreast down Hammondville Road brandishing nightsticks and dogs .
The show of force and arrests ended that demonstration, but did not solve the underlying problems . Other disturbances flared up, including a more serious riot in 1970 that followed the shooting of a black resident by a Pompano Beach police officer .
Protests, both peaceful and violent, by members of Pompano Beach’s

Groundbreaking at the Sample-McDougald House
A groundbreaking ceremony was held for the final phase of the Sam-ple-McDougald House restoration: site development and landscaping of the grounds for Centennial Park on February 18th .
Commissioner Barry Dockswell, Commissioner Rex Hardin, Vice Mayor George Brummer, County Commissioner Kristin Jacobs, Mayor Lamar Fisher, County School Board Member Dr. Bob Parks, County Commissioner Albert Jones, Commissioner Woodrow Poitier
African-American community had the ironic result of decreasing the diversity of businesses on Hammondville Road . Many white business owners closed or sold their businesses there . This, in turn, increasingly led to the perception that Hammondville Road was primarily a black business area .
At the western end of the road, the Hammondville settlement came to an end in the early 1950’s, when developer Victor Semet purchased 1,900 acres, much of it from the Hammon Development Company, and began building a subdivision called Hammon Heights . In 1955, he sold his holdings to Jack Mar-qusee who built and incorporated the City of Margate . Although Ham-mondville was gone, Hammonville Road was the new municipality’s only road to Pompano Beach .
In the 1960’s, Pompano Beach businessman Robert Bateman purchased land between Margate and Pompano Beach and began development of Coconut Creek . In order to better market the new residential neighborhood and disassociate it from what was perceived to be an outdated reference
to the old farming community, the developers petitioned Broward County and had the road’s name changed to Coconut Creek Parkway, from the Turnpike west to State Rd . 7 .
As the decades passed, many members of Pompano Beach’s African-American community began to question the relevance of the road’s name -- “Hammondville” had little meaning for many residents and for those who remembered what it meant, it conjured up images of a less than happy past .
In February, 1990, a contingent of black citizens began formally lobbying the Pompano Beach City Commission to change the road’s name from Hammondville to Dr . Martin Luther King, Jr . This proposal exposed a still-simmering racial divide; many white residents objected to the name change, asserting that it would come at the expense of the area’s agricultural heritage . There were counter proposals that the civil rights leader be honored by naming some other municipal facility in his honor, but the black leadership rejected the renaming of a park or building .
At a contentious meeting in October, 1990, the commissioners finally ad-dressed the issue . Advocates for and against renaming Hammondville Road spoke with passion, following which the commissioners voted . Cheers erupted when the renaming proposal appeared to win by a 3 - 2 vote, but within 20 minutes they turned to jeers when Mayor Nat Braverman announced he had cast his vote in error and changed it, thus defeating the measure .
The resulting furor led the City Commission to form an advisory committee to find a “fitting memorial” to the slain civil rights leader . The committee’s recommendation was to establish dual names for Hammond-ville Road, from Dixie Highway to the Florida Turnpike, designating the thoroughfare Dr . Martin Luther King, Jr . Blvd ., while retaining the name Hammondville Road in smaller let-ters below the new name . The City Commission approved the compromise on December 11th, 1990 .
For the past two decades the old road’s name(s) have remained unchanged, and it appears that almost everyone is satisfied with the status quo .

You Can Make aDifference -Get a Plan Today!By Kimberly Spill, Emergency Manager
Recent events have painfully reignited our awareness to the devastating impact that natural disasters can have on our lives . It has also demonstrated how true compassion from the many hearts of our community, the nation and the
world can make a difference .
As much as we might wish otherwise, disasters and emergencies happen . Hurricanes or other disasters such as tornadoes, fires, hazardous materials incidents and acts of terrorism have proven that the initial hours following a disaster may overwhelm emergency and rescue personnel . And while emergency preparation may not be possible for every individual, or for every type of emergency or disaster, the importance of preparedness
planning cannot be overstated .
Planning ahead and knowing the risks within your community will help you make sound decisions during a
crisis and keep your family safe .
Consider the following questions when preparing your family for
emergencies:
1. Have you prepared a Disaster
Supply Kit with emergency supplies
like water, food and medicine that
is kept in a designated place in your
home?
2. Have you made a specific plan
for how you and your family would
communicate in an emergency
situation if you were separated?
3. Have you established a specific
meeting place to reunite in the event
you and your family cannot return
home or are evacuated?
4. Have you practiced or drilled
on what to do in an emergency at
home?
5. Have you volunteered to help
prepare for or respond to a major
disaster?
6. Do you know your neighbor?
You may be able to help them in the
event of an emergency .
And . . .
7. Have you taken the Citizen Corps
CERT training administered by your
Pompano Beach Fire Department?
The Community Emergency Response Team (C .E .R .T .) Program educates citizens about disaster preparedness for hazards that may impact their area and trains them in basic disaster response skills, such as fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization, and disaster medical operations . Volunteers are a valuable resource within our community and can assist others in their neighborhood or workplace following a disaster .
The City of Pompano Beach
encourages you to take advantage
of this free training and prepare
your family to the fullest extent
you can . Classes begin on May
6th and are held Thursday
evenings from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm
for eight consecutive weeks .
To register, call Pompano Beach
Fire-Rescue at 954-786-4510 .
AtteNtiON:CodeRED Phone Number Change
The City of Pompano Beach has
recently updated its emergency
notification system, CodeRED .
Message recipient’s Caller ID will now
read Emergency Communications
Network or 866-419-5000, depending
on local telephone providers .
Residents can now dial the
number displayed on their Caller
ID to hear the last emergency
notification delivered . All businesses
should register, as well as those who
have unlisted phone numbers, who
have changed their phone number
or those who use a cellular phone
or VoIP phone as their primary
number . For more information log

Benndale, Mississippi, located
approximately 50 miles northwest
of Mobile, Alabama, was ground
zero for Hurricane Katrina in 2005 .
Like other communities in this
region the damage was extensive
and crippling . Benndale was espe-
cially in dire need of a fire truck . At
a meeting on November 24, 2009,
the City Commission of Pompano
Beach voted to allow Fire Chief
Harry Small to donate a 1996 Emer-
gency One Pumper to the Town of
Benndale . This particular fire truck
had been previously replaced with
a new unit and was slated to be
put up for bid at the City auction .
The donated truck, driven by
volunteers, was delivered to an
enthusiastic Benndale fire depart-
ment and community in January .
Mr . Pat Dillon (retired FDNY) and
his organization, Squad 363, worked
behind the scenes to transfer the
fire truck to Benndale and facilitate
the arrangements . There is little
doubt that the donation of this fire
truck to the Benndale community
will have a significant impact on
public safety and will ultimately
save lives . This donation was done
in the spirit that in these times it is
more important than ever for
communities to help each other .
$10,000 FireStation MakeoverBy Sandra King, Public Information Officer
The City of Pompano Beach, Hon-
eywell and Rebuilding Together
Broward County teamed up to
complete a renovation project for
Pompano Beach Fire Rescue Station
61 located at 2121 NW 3rd Avenue .
Honeywell Hometown Solutions
donated more than $10,000 in
materials and more than 60
employees volunteered their time .
The Honeywell employees, who
were visiting Broward County for an
annual business kick off, helped
restore the fire station by painting
the fire rescue station’s interior and
exterior, including fire engine red
on the front pillar, refinishing the
station’s deck and assembling newly
donated patio furniture, installing a
handmade firehouse-shaped mailbox
and installing new carpeting .
“Our emergency responders greatly
appreciate the efforts by Honeywell
and Rebuilding Together to help
restore our fire rescue station which
serves as both a work place and a
home away from home during the
long hours our firefighters are on call
for emergency response,” said Chief
Harry Small of Pompano Beach Fire-
Rescue .

This article is required by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (F .E .M .A .) to satisfy provisions in the Community Rating System (C .R .S .) for reduced costs for flood insurance . The following is offered to Pompano Beach residents to help prevent and minimize the impact on lives and property caused by floodwaters .
Flood Hazard MapThe City’s Engineering Department has prepared a Flood Criteria Map identifying flood zones for all properties in the city; it determines the flood hazard associated with any parcel in the City . The map is located in the Building Department at City Hall .
Flood RiskAlthough we have been fortunate for the past 30 years, Hurricane Andrew and the 17 inches of rain that fell from Hurri-cane Irene reminds us of the possibility of flooding with every major storm .
Flood warning systemThe City of Pompano Beach, in coor-dination with Broward County, has a warning system to notify residents of impending flood danger . Warnings will be transmitted on public address systems, television, radio, telephone and on a door-to-door basis . Listen for instructions during times of flood risk .
Flood safetyThese are precautionary steps to consider before possible flooding:• Listen to radio or television for warnings .• Obey warning & evacuation instructions from disaster officials .• Know your evacuation zone & route.• Take your own essentials (food, toiletries, clothes, blankets, etc .)• Turn off the electricity and gas before leaving your home .• Bring a battery-operated flashlight.• Be careful at all times, particularly at night, & try to remain calm .
Flood insuranceMost homeowners’ insurance policies do not cover property losses due to flood waters . To insure your property for flood damage, you need a flood in-surance policy . If you do not have valid flood insurance, contact an agent imme-diately . Property owners can insure prop-erty; renters can insure possessions . The City of Pompano Beach participates in the National Flood Insurance Program (N .F .I .P .) to provide city residents with the initial qualification to purchase flood insurance . We applied to F .E .M .A . for participation in the C .R .S . program to enable our residents to qualify for lower flood insurance premiums .
Property ProtectionThere are ways to minimize property losses from flood damage, including:• Move furniture and other household valuables to rooms or spaces in the upper story of a two-story dwelling or a location higher than the regular floor elevation in a single story home .• Place sandbags in strategic places around your property prior to flood status . When sandbags are placed correctly at proper locations, they can slow up and divert flood waters .• Upgrading your property can include building flood walls or elevating a structure .
Development PermitsAll development (new construction, additions, renovations, alterations to properties, etc .) in the City of Pompano Beach require a construction permit . Major Improvements: The N .F .I .P . and the South Florida Building Code require the entire building to conform to the requirements for a new building when building repairs or alterations exceed 50 percent of the building’s market value . All applicable building permit applica-tions must conform to this requirement when submitted to the Building Depart-ment . The requirement may also apply if a building is substantially damaged due to flooding .
stormwater ManagementStormwater is managed through a system of drainage canals maintained
regularly by our Public Works Depart-ment and the Broward County Office of Environmental Services . Constant water flow through these canals, especially during heavy storms, is essential to flood prevention in the City . City and state laws prohibit dumping trash in water-ways . Report violators to Public Works Department at 954-786-4060 .
Natural HabitatState regulations protect those natural areas that help to reduce the risks associated with flooding . Along the beach, no new structures are permitted seaward of the Coastal Construction Line without permission . Other restric-tions prevent some wetland areas from development .
Additional informationWe urge city residents to contact or visit the Building Department to determine the flood zone and flood elevation for their property . The library at the Building Department is available for your reference . Pompano Beach City Hall is at 100 West Atlantic Boulevard, Pompano Beach, Florida . The Pompano Beach Branch of the Broward County Library, located at 1213 East Atlantic Boulevard, has information on flood insurance, flood protection and flood plan management .
Rate ReductionsOn June 11th, 1993, the City received a letter from F .E .M .A . commending our efforts to exceed minimum standards of the National Flood Insurance Program to meet the requirements for a Class 9 rating in the C .R .S . . These actions earned Pompano Beach residents a five percent discount for N .F .I .P . policies issued or renewed on or after October 1st, 1993 . In September 1994, the city received official notification that Pompano Beach residents are eligible for an additional five percent discount, or 10 percent total, on flood insurance based on the City complying with the requirements for a Class 8 rating in the C .R .S . .
For More information:Call Larry Schuster, City of Pompano Beach Planner, at 954-786-4654 .
