Votes at a glance:
• Resolution 2025-005 — Public Storage Pembroke plat (agenda item 8.2): Approved. The commission approved a plat to allow demolition of existing self-storage buildings and construction of a new five-story self-storage facility at the southeast corner of Pembroke Road and Southwest 301st Avenue. The plat will include a restrictive note limiting development to 210,775 square feet of self-storage and will incorporate Broward County comments and corner dedication to FDOT. Vote: Mosvika Kashem — yes; Eric Morissette — yes; William Hodgkins — yes; Jeffrey Jacobs — yes.
• Ordinance 2025-001 — Procurement code amendment (second reading, agenda item 9.1): Adopted. The ordinance amends chapter 2, article 5 of the town code to change the process for waiving certain competitive bidding requirements (allowing a motion on the record instead of a resolution). Vote: all present commissioners voted yes; Mayor absent.
• Police RMS licensing (agenda item 10.1): Approved. The commission approved purchase of additional licensing for the police department’s records-management system to meet server compliance needs; no purchase amount was specified on the record. Vote: Mosvika Kashem — yes; Eric Morissette — yes; William Hodgkins — yes; Jeffrey Jacobs — yes.
• Item 11.1 — Minimum town salary proposal (moved from consent): Tabled. A proposal to set the town minimum salary at $52,000 was tabled so staff can prepare an in-house fiscal impact (PACE) study before further action. Motion to table carried by roll call.
• Item 12.1 — Competitive bid award recommendation (auditing services, RFP 24-06): Approved to authorize the town manager to award contract to James Moore, the lowest responsible, responsive bidder, for a total procurement amount stated at approximately $158,000 (three-year audit services). The evaluation committee recommended James Moore based on price and experience; the contract will return to the commission for formal ratification. Vote: Mosvika Kashem — yes; Eric Morissette — yes; William Hodgkins — yes; Jeffrey Jacobs — yes.
Procedural notes: Several items approved by the commission require follow-up steps: plats must be finalized and recorded; the procurement award requires a formal contract vote when presented; and the tabling of the minimum-salary item directs finance and HR to complete an impact study prior to any motion to adopt.
Roll-call summary for recorded motions above: Kashem — yes; Morissette — yes; Hodgkins — yes; Jacobs — yes; Mayor Shera Mohammed — absent.
