SWORN STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 287.133(3)(a)
FLORIDA STATUTES, ON PUBLIC ENTITY CRIMES
THIS FORM MUST BE SIGNED AND SWORN TO IN THE PRESENCE OF A NOTARY PUBLIC OR OTHER
OFFICIAL AUTHORIZED TO ADMINISTER OATHS.
1. This sworn statement issubmitted to 'The. c.,tfy o{ A"e..n+ur~ by

Employer Identification Number (FEIN) is5'/-I'I~IF the entity had no FEIN, include the Social Security
Number of the individual signing this sworn statement:
2. I understand that a "public entity crime" as defmed in Paragraph 287.133(l)(g), Florida Statutes, means a
violation of any state or federal law by a person with respect to and directly related to the transaction of
business with any public entity or with an agency or political subdivision of any other state or with the United
States, including, but not limited to, any Bid or Contract for goods or services to be provided to any public
entity or an agency or political subdivision of any other state of the United States and involving antitrust, fraud,
theft, bribery, collusion, racketeering, conspiracy, or material misrepresentation.
3. I understand that "convicted" or "conviction" as defmed in Para. 287.133(1)(b), Florida Statutes, means a
fmding of guilt or a conviction of a public entity crime, with or without an adjudication of guilt, in any federal
or state trail court of record relating to charges brought by indictment or information after July 1, 1989, as a
result of a jury verdict, non-jury trial, or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere.
4. I understand that an "affiliate" as defmed in Para. 287.133(1)(a), Florida Statutes, means:
1. A predecessor or successor of a person convicted of a public entity crime; or
2. Any entity under the control of any natural person who is active in the management of the entity and
who has been convicted of a public entity crime. The term "affiliate" includes those officers,
directors, executors, partners, shareholders, employees, members, and agents who are active in the
management of an affiliate. The ownership by one person of shares constituting a controlling interest
in another person, or a pooling of equipment or income among persons when not for fair market value
under an ann's length agreement, shall be a prime facie case that one person controls another person.
A person who knowingly enters into a joint venture with a person who has been convicted of a public
entity crime in Florida during the preceding 36 months shall be considered an affiliate.
5. I understtmd that a "person" as defmed in Para. 287.133(1)(e), Florida Statutes, means any natural person or
entity organized under the laws of any state or of the United States with the legal power to enter into a binding
Contract and which Bids or applies to Bid on Contracts for the provision of goods or services let by a public
entity, or which otherwise transacts or applies to transact business with a public entity. The term "personstl
includes those officers, directors, executives, parttlers, shareholders, employees, members, and agents who are
active in management of any entity.
6. Based on information and belief, the statement which I have marked below is true in relation to the entity
submitting this sworn statement. (Indicate which statement applies.)
/
Neither the entity submitting this sworn statement, nor any of it's officers, directors, executives,
partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the management of the entity, nor any
affiliate of the entity has been charged with and convicted ofa public entity crime subsequent to July I, 1989.
00456 - 2
The entity submitting this sworn statement, or one or more of its officers, directors, executives,
partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the management of the entity, or an
affiliate of the entity has been charged with and convicted of a public entity crime subsequent to July I, 1989.
The entity submitting this sworn statement, or one or more of its officers, directors, executives,
partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the management of the entity, or an
affiliate of the entity has been charged with and convicted of a public entity crime subsequent to July I, 1989.
However, there has been a subsequent proceeding before a Hearing Officer of the State of Florida, Division
of Administrative Hearings and the Final Order entered by the Hearing Officer of the State of Florida, Division
of Administrative Hearings and the Final Order entered by the Hearing Officer determined that it was not in
the public interest to place the entity submitting this sworn statement on the convicted vendor list. (Attach a
copy of the final order.)
I UNDERSTAND THAT THE SUBMISSION OF THIS FORM TO THE CONTRACTING OFFICER FOR THE
PUBLIC ENTITY IDENTIFIED IN PARAGRAPH 1 (ONE) ABOVE IS FOR THAT PUBLIC ENTITY ONLY AND,
THAT TIllS FORM IS VALID THROUGH DECEMBER 31 OF THE CALENDAR YEAR IN WHICH IT IS FILED.

unreasonably, its own manpower, equipment, facilities, and other
resources and services in rendering such assistance.

degree, manner, and extent while engaged in the performance
of their functions and duties extraterritorial under the provisions
of this Mutual Aid Agreement. The provision of this Agreement
shall apply with equal effect to paid and auxiliary employees.
6. Indemnification: The political subdivision having financial responsibility
for the law enforcement agency providing aid pursuant to this Agreement

Declaration of Water Shortage Emergency
Aventura, Florida ... On Wednesday, January 17, the South Florida Water
Management District declared a Severe Water Shortage Emergency for all areas south
of Lake Okeechobee. Phase II Water Restrictions were enacted to decrease water
consumption from Lake Okeechobee to the Everglades. These restrictions are more
stringent than the Phase I Water Restrictions that were enacted in December.
The Emergency Order was enacted in response to below average water levels in
lake Okeechobee and other water conservation areas. This year's "wet season" (June -
September) was up to 50% below average, with October, November and December
also reporting below average rainfall. This decline is expected to continue until at least
March. In addition to below average rainfall, water consumption in South Florida has
increased up to 10%.
The Phase I Water Restriction goal was a 15% reduction in consumption. Since
that goal was not met, the more stringent restrictions were enacted. These restrictions
apply to domestic, commercial, utility and agricultural uses. The following fact sheet
lists a brief description of the restrictions that are currently in effect. The fact sheet can
city of Aventura, Florida - Water Rewictlon Advisory.doc _ Page 2 _ 1/24/01
be downloaded from the South Florida Water Management District website at
www.sfwmd.aov/currelwatshortiindex2.html.
The Phase II Restrictions will be in effect until further notice, and will be enforced
by the City of Aventura Code Compliance Division. Violators will first receive a written
warning, and then a violation, which may carry a fine of up to $500. To report a
violation, please call (305) 466-8941.
The City of Aventura is complying with the Water Shortage Restrictions in our
landscaping irrigation and other activities. We urge all residents and business owners
to comply with the Phase II Water Restrictions in order to preserve our valuable water
supply. For more information, call the South Florida Water Management District at
(800) 662-8876 or visit their website at www.sfwmd.aov.

is a regional, governmental
agency that oversees the
water resoun:es in the
southern half of the state. It

of the region by balancing
and improving water
quality. fiood control,
natul'lll systems, and water
supply.
Water Shortages
Water shortages and water conservation fall
under the Distrlct.s mission for water supply.
South Florida depends upon rainfall for Its
water supply. While South Flortda gets 55-60
inches of rain a year, the rainfall Is seasonal,
failing mostly In the summer and fall. The
rainfall is also cyclical, meaning there are typi-
cally 10-year cydes of drought and llood.
To manage water shortages in an organized
and effldent manner, the District has adopted
a Plan and a Rule to restrict water use when
supplies fan short. (Sec. 373.246, F.S.; CII.
40E-21, F.A.C). The goal Is to protect the
remaining supply IJy conserving water, pre-
venting saltwater Intrusion and assuring a fair
dIstribution of available supplies. Before

Water-Use Restrictions
The Olstrlct has established spedflc water-use
restrictions according to the severity of the
water shortage - Phase t, moderate; Phase
II, severe; Phase Ill, extreme; and, Phase
IV, critical - each requiring an Il1CJI!aslngly
larger reduction In water use. The Distrtct c0rre-
lates each phase of the restrlctlons to the 0"""
all percentage of reductions needed. Phase II
alms for a 30 percent reduction in water use.
General Guidelines
" All wasleful and unnecessary water use Is
prohibited.
" Essential services InvoMng public health and
safety, such as fire-lighting, are not restrlcted.
. Water-use restrictions 00 NOT apply to the
use of treated wastewater (reuse waler),

devices that apply water directly to the root
area of a plant
"Waler-use restrictions generally DO apply to
water from prlvate wells and all sunace waters
such as canals, lakes, ponds and rivers.
o Any exemptions from the restrictions must

FROM:
BY: port Services Director
DATE: December 27,2000
SUBJECT: End of Year Budget Amending Ordinance
1st Reading January 2, 2001 City Commission Meeting Agenda Item~
2nd Reading February 6, 2001 City Commission Meeting Agenda Item~
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Commission approve the attached ordinance amending
the 1999/2000 budget.
Background
As you are aware, we are in the process of closing the books for the 1999/00 fiscal year.
We are now to the point where we can formally amend the budget so that the adopted
budget contains appropriations sufficient to cover all actual expenditures. The process is
called the end of year "clean up" amendment and is done as a matter of course each year.
I will briefly discuss those areas requiring amendment. In general, we need to adjust the
salary budget in most departments in order to record the current portion of compensated
absences. Compensated absences involves calculating the dollar value of accrued
vacation and sick leave at September 30th of each year. The portion which is estimated to
be paid within one year is considered a current expenditure of each department. This
need to amend the budget was discussed last March when we presented the 1998/99
CAFR and auditor's management letter comments. This is the reason for increases in the
salary line item for the City Manager, Police, Community Development and Community
Services departments.
For the City Manager's Office, newsletter costs were higher than projected due to updates
to the web page and increased promotional activity.
For the Police Department, gas & oil was higher than projected due to significant increases
in cost per gallon of gasoline. Repair & Maintenance of vehicles accounted for the balance
of the budget amendment.
Page (2)
End of Year Budget Amending Ordinance
The Community Development Department required amendments for Building Inspection
Services and Other Professional Services as a result of higher building activity than was
projected. The increase in expenditures is more than offset by increased revenues from
Building Permits and Development Review Fees.
Community Services requires the largest budget amendment. A portion is to cover the
Cultural Center Feasibility Study which was not contemplated when the budget was
adopted. A large portion of the increase is due to the costs of repairs resulting from
Hurricane Irene (October '99). We received $106,000 reimbursement from FEMA and the
State. However, they cover only 82.5% of eligible expenses. We incurred significantly
more costs in non-eligible areas. For example, FEMA does not cover replacement of
damaged plant material and groundcover. This resulted in the majority of the over
expenditures in account numbers 3450, 3460, 4672 and 4691. Utilities - Street Lights was
the result of new areas being added to the City's account. Special Events and
CulturelRecreational Programs experienced greater than anticipated demand. A portion of
the increased cost is offset by additional revenues.
The amendment to the Police Off Duty Service Fund is due to higher demand for off-duty
services than was anticipated when the budget was prepared. Since we bill out services to
the entities which request these services, the increased expenditure is directly offset by
off- duty billing revenue.
Although the increase in expenditure appropriations per this Ordinance is significant, it is
more than offset by revenues being greater than projected. Therefore, fund balance
carried over for the 2000/01 Fiscal year will be greater than projected. I recommend
adoption of the Ordinance.
If you have any questions please feel free to call or stop by my office.

DATE: January 29,2001
SUBJECT: Revision to 1999/00 Budget Cleanup Ordinance
Since the date that the 1999/00 end of year cleanup Ordinance was heard on first
reading, we have completed the vast majority of our audit by Keefe McCullough & Co.
As part of the audit process, a significant number of accruals and changes in estimates
were agreed upon by the Auditors and City staff. The net effect of these various
changes to actual expenditures and revenues will be positive (i.e. net additional
revenues added exceed net increase in expenditures). However, two departments
require budget adjustments beyond the amounts which were originally included in the
budget cleanup Ordinance.
The two departments requiring additional appropriations are the City Manager's Office
and Community Services. After reviewing payroll related transactions, the decision was
made to accrue approximately half of the payroll for the period September 25 to October
8, 2000. In addition, the charges to departments for workers compensation made
through the payroll systems were greater than actual rates requiring a decrease in
expenditures. The net effect of these changes were to reduce expenditures in most
departments. However, for the City Manager's Office, it resulted in a net increase of
$5,400.
Review of accounts payable also disclosed that some invoices for contractual
landscape maintenance had been charged to the 2000/01 year which should have been
charged to the 1999/00 year. This required an adjustment of $40,000 in the Community
Services Department.
In order to reflect these changes, I have revised Exhibit A to the budget amending
Ordinance which was heard on first reading at the January Commission meeting. A
summary of the changes are as follows:

CITY OF A VENTURA
FINANCE SUPPORT SERVICES DEPARTMENT
MEMORANDUM
TO:
City Commission fr
Eric M. Soroka, City a ge
~~ .
Harry M. Kilgore, Financ Su port Services Director
FROM:
BY:
DATE: December 27,2000
SUBJECT: Budget Amending Ordinance
1st Reading January 2, 2001 City Commission Meeting Agenda Item '1 r
2nd Reading February 6, 2001 City Commission Meeting Agenda Item q 8
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Commission approve the attached ordinance amending
the 2000/2001 budget.
Background
The attached Ordinance serves two purposes. First, it re-appropriates money for Capital
Projects which were budgeted in 1999/00 but not complete at September 30,2000 to the
2000101 fiscal year budget allowing the projects to be completed. Secondly, the
Ordinance establishes the budget for the debt service costs and debt proceeds relating to
the Bank Qualified Loan which was approved in October and November, 2000.
I will briefly discuss the major portions of the amendment. Community Services Capital re-
appropriations includes $250,000 in the Beautification Projects account to move the
Aventura Boulevard South Entrance Feature forward so that the North (budgeted in
2000101) and South can be completed as one project.
The balance in the Aventura Founders Park line item ($131,000) is also moved forward to
the next year. This amount, plus the $184,000 appropriated in the Park Development
Fund, will cover the contract ward for the bandstand at the Park. Similarly, the balance in
the Waterways Park Improvements is carried forward in order to allow contract award in
2000101.
The Government Center appropriation in the General Fund was not expended and is
carried forward to fund the final portion of that project. In addition, the interest earnings in
the Capital Construction Fund in 1999/00 are $250,000 more than projected. That amount
is appropriated to be expended on the project pursuant to bond covenant.

ORDINANCE NO. 2001-
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF A VENTURA,
FLORIDA, AMENDING THE CITY CODE OF THE CITY
OF AVENTURA BY CREATING SECTION 48-20
"PROHIBITION OF RIGHT-OF-WAY VENDORS AND
SOLICITORS ON CERTAIN ROADS" OF ARTICLE II
"USE OF RIGHT-OF-WAY; PARKING; OTHER
REGULATIONS" OF CHAPTER 48 "VEHICLES; USE
OF RIGHT-OF-WAY; PARKING; AND OTHER
REGULATIONS;" PROHIBITING RIGHT-OF-WAY
VENDORS AND SOLICITORS ON CERTAIN STREETS
IN THE CITY; CREATING A DEFINITION FOR THE
TERM "RIGHT-OF-WAY VENDOR AND SOLICITOR;"
PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR
INCLUSION IN CODE; PROVIDING FOR PENALTY;
PROVIDING FOR EFFECTIVE DATE.
IT IS HEREBY ORDAINED BY THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
A VENTURA, FLORIDA, AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. That the City Code of the City of A ventura is hereby amended by creating
Section 48-20 "Prohibition of Right-of-Way Vendors and Solicitors On Certain Roads" of
Article II "Use of Right-of-Way; Parking; Other Regulations" of Chapter 48 "Vehicles; Use of
Right-of- Way; Parking; and Other Regulations" to read as follows:
Section 48-20. Prohibition of Right-of-Way Vendors and Solicitors On
Certain Roads.
A. Findings; Purpose; Intent.
(l) The City Commission of the City of A ventura desires to adopt an
ordinance prohibiting right-of-way vendors and solicitors on
certain streets located in the City because such vendors and
solicitors pose a danger to themselves and the public at large by
interfering with the safe movement of normal vehicular traffic; and
(2) Based upon statistics collected by the Surface Transportation
Policy Project, on average, 565 pedestrians are killed every year in
Florida (of which 99 are in Miami-Dade County), and the Miami-
Fort Lauderdale area is one of the most dangerous areas in the
United States for pedestrians; and
Ordinance No. 2001-
Page 2
(3) Numerous types of right-of-way vendors and solicitors operate or
may seek to operate within the City of Aventura, including, but not
limited to, children, adolescents and adults who seek to collect
money for school and community activities; vendors who sell
flowers, newspapers and other products and people who seek
donations or to distribute information; and
(4) Right-of-way vendors and solicitors approach motorists and
passengers in motor vehicles engaged in travel on roads, and are
particularly susceptible and vulnerable to serious injury or death
due to the speed and number of motorists who operate vehicles on
busy roads within the City; and
(5) Roads are primarily designed for vehicular traffic and are not
suited to safely accommodate right-of-way vendors and solicitors;
and
(6) Over the past ten years, at least ten right-of-way vendors have been
killed by motor vehicles in the South Florida area, and many more
have been seriously injured (including a Sun Sentinel newspaper
vendor who was struck by a car while carrying papers on U.S. I
and Broward Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale on July 30, 2000); and
(7) The presence of right-of-way vendors and solicitors interferes with
the safe movement of normal vehicular traffic; and
(8) The road network in the City is substantially burdened by a high
volume of traffic; and
(9) It is the intention of the City Commission to use the least
restrictive means to advance the significant governmental interests
of traffic safety and public safety and, consequently, the City Staff
has analyzed each of the major roads within the City and has
determined that the roads listed in subsection C below, pose the
greatest threat to traffic and public safety in reference to activities
and use by right-of-way vendors and solicitors, and therefore the
City Commission has determined that the prohibition on right-of-
way vendors and solicitors shall be limited to those listed roads;
and
2
Ordinance No. 2001-
Page 3
(10) It is the finding of the City Commission that many other alternative
channels of communication (other than right-of-way vending and
solicitation) exist for persons who seek to exercise their First
Amendment freedoms, such as, but by no means limited to,
solicitation of funds or distribution ofliterature through the mail or
at alternate locations (such as houses of worship, shopping areas
and special events); the sale andlor distribution of newspapers
through home delivery, vending machines and retail stores; and the
sale of items of all kinds at retail stores, through the internet and
from vending machines; and
(11) The City Commission desires to preserve and protect the personal
safety and quality of life of its residents and of those who use City
streets, both pedestrians and motorists alike; and
(12) The City Commission has reviewed the proposed regulations
provided by this Section and finds that such regulations
accomplish the purposes intended while utilizing the least
restrictive method possible; and
(13) The City Commission finds that it is in the best interests of the
residents of the City to adopt this Section.
B. Definitions.
As used in this Section, the following term( s) have the meaning set forth herein,
except as otherwise indicated by the context.
Right-of-Way Vendor or Solicitor. Any person who sells or offers for sale any
thing or service of any kind, or who seeks any donation of any kind, or who
personally hands to or seeks to transmit by hand or receive by hand any thing or
service of any kind, whether or not payment in exchange is required or requested,
to any person who operates or occupies a motor vehicle of any kind, which
vehicle is engaged in travel on or within any portion of any of the roads
designated in subsection C, whether or not such vehicle is temporarily stopped in
the travel lanes of the road. The term shall not apply to any person who merely
holds or displays a sign lawfully permitted to be displayed by a person, as long as
there is no entry by such person or sign into any portion of the roadway or its
median. Further, this term shall not apply to official citations or notices provided
