She said her lawn man only comes to remove weeds.

From the audienceResident James Benefi eld

said he rips up his grass every four or fi ve years. “If I don’t like it, I take it out!” he said.

Marie Rose Solomon, a nurse, said she, too, is allergic to grass. She told of properties in her neighborhood that need

mowing, including one at SW 6 Avenue and SW 10 Court. Another house, one block away, needs to be demolished, she said. “It looks terrible. I have people from Paris coming to visit for a couple weeks, and it’s totally an embarrassment to me. I’ve been in Deerfi eld Beach since 1978. We built in 1981 and our house is gor-

“For” repealMax Kennedy, from Pet-

land, Tarpon Springs, said that the original ordinance: “protects neither pet owners nor consumers, helps puppy mills, hurts families by limit-ing their choice of pets, hurts consumers because rescues are exempt from the Lemon Law, hurts a small business owner [Deerfi eld Beach Petland – 75 percent of their business is puppies] and hurts employees [of Deerfi eld Petland] who will

lose their jobs.”“If the commission votes to

keep the ban, Petland will be forced to fi le a lawsuit against the city,” Kennedy began the public hearing.

Francisco Sorrentini urged creating tighter restrictions on breeders rather than instituting an ordinance that restricts pet stores. [There are reportedly two in Deerfi eld Beach that sell puppies]. “Only 2 to 4 percent of pet owners buy their pet from a pet store. 96 to 98 percent

buy their pet from a shelter, the internet, whatever,” he said.

“Against” repealBernie Parness said, “Deer-

fi eld Beach should shake in its boots for doing the right thing. Puppy mills produce a profi t and sell it [the puppy], no matter what. You’ve done something in the right direction. Stand by your vote!”

Don Anthony said, “It’s done. I’ve never seen any city or commission do this [revisit an ordinance]. There’s a perfectly legal ordinance on the books right now. Deerfi eld residents can still buy dogs from a breeder [or adopt them from a shelter].

Petland Deerfi eld Beach won’t go out of business. They can sell food, toys, beds, etc. You’ve already done the right thing. You need to stick with it.”

Special meetingA special commission meet-

ing has now been called for Monday, Dec. 7 at 7 p.m. in the Commission Chambers to discuss possible compensation for City Manager Burgess Han-son. Hanson – who has lived in Deerfi eld since 1999, worked for the city since 2001, and served as City Manager since 2010 – has applied for a job as Supervisor for Marion County, FL and is one of four fi nalists

for the position.During discussion on the

city manager’s performance evaluation process, the last agenda item of the evening, Commissioner Joe Miller and fellow commissioners said they wanted to do everything in their power to keep Hanson here, and take a look at his salary.

“I don’t know why this is on the agenda tonight. I thought we were going to wait until January. Marion County is going to do something on the 14th or 15th. Let’s do something after. I’d like to make a motion to table,” said Mayor Robb.

“I discussed this with the city manager. Since he’s applying

for other positions, I don’t want to do anything on this,” she continued.

Commissioner Miller said, “I distinctly wanted this to be on tonight! I’d like to do a special meeting A.S.A.P. Let’s make him an offer he can’t refuse.”

Vice Mayor Ganz said, “I met last night with representatives from our business community. I have 20 letters of support. I’m not looking to give away the Taj Mahal, but if he leaves this city, I want to make sure we fought hard to keep him.”

Several Deerfi eld residents spoke earlier in the meeting, commending Hanson on his leadership and professionalism.

geous. I love my community,” she added.

Solomon also asked about recycling water for watering purposes.

Assistant City Manager Brian Donovan said that the City of Pompano Beach has put in a Reclaimed Water Program. Pompano took out a $20 mil-lion Utility Bond around the year 2000 and used it to build a Reclaimed Water Treatment Plant, he said.

If Deerfi eld Beach wants to do this, they’d have to fi nd a

way to come up with the funds to pay for it fi rst in order to support it [the Treatment Plant], said Donovan.

Mayor Robb asked if Pita was also in charge of enforcing the Sign Ordinance.

“It used to be [that] you could only have a covering over 20 percent of the window,” Robb said.

Pita responded that it still is a [maximum] 20 percent. “There are a lot of signs violating the code. We’re working to rectify that,” he said.

The Indian Cork Tree, Millingtonia hortensis, is sometimes known as Tree Jasmine for its fragrant white fl owers that it shows off and on during the dry time of year. It is a very tall upright tree, reaching more than 80’, but having a relatively narrow crown of 25’ to 35’. This tree has very corky bark, hence its name. Because of its height and somewhat brittle wood, it requires some thought as to placement in your yard.

Jason is only 29 and already has ten years of experience, so how did he get started in the business so young? As a kid, Jason was an avid baseball

player, along with his love of freshwater or saltwater fi shing, freediving or surfi ng. He graduated from Pompano Beach High School with a

GPA of 4.2. But after high school he and a friend started detailing boats, and it grew into his full time profession.

“Every boat is different,” says Jason, with completely different needs. In his truck, he has six different compounds and four or fi ve different wax-

es, depending on the condition of each boat. And, of course, he uses a high speed buffer to polish the hull so you can see yourself in the refl ection. His “attention to detail” is even in the rust and spot removal from the hardware to the propellers on the engine.

He has a sense of accom-plishment, after bringing boats back through a complete restoration, which makes his many repeat customers happy. Jason doesn’t feel like it’s

work as he’s on boats all day and it always gives him a great “nautical view.”

Not all showy trees gain their attraction from fl owers. The Ceylon Ironwood, Mesua ferrea, is a slow-growing, densely foliated tree that puts on a spectacular display of deep red new leaves several times a year. It bears fragrant white fl owers and may grow 100’ tall, taking perhaps a hundred years to get there.
