140 (B) It is hereby ascertained, determined, and declared that each parcel of
141 Assessed Property located within the City will be benefited by the City's provision of fire
142 rescue services, facilities, and programs in an amount not less than the Fire Rescue

145
146 SECTION 4. IMPOSITION AND COMPUTATION OF FIRE RESCUE
147 ASSESSMENTS.
148
100191103.1306-900 6
149 Fire Rescue Assessments shall be imposed against all Tax Parcels within the
150 Property Use Categories. Fire Rescue Assessments shall be computed in the manner set
151 forth in this Preliminary Rate Resolution.
152 SECTION 5. LEGISLATIVE DETERMINATIONS OF SPECIAL BENEFIT AND
153 FAIR APPORTIONMENT.
154
155 It is hereby ascertained and declared that the Fire Rescue Assessed Costs provide a
156 special benefit to the Assessed Property based upon the following legislative
157 determinations and based upon that certain report entitled "City of Boynton Beach Fire
158 Assessment Memorandum," May 2008, prepared by Government Services Group, Inc.,
159 which is hereby incorporated herein by reference. Each year since then, the City has
160 engaged Government Services Group to provide assistance to the City in implementing the
161 annual Fire Rescue Assessments, including review of rates and budgets, to maintain
162 consistency with the methodology used by the City and confirmed in Desiderio Corp. v.
163 City of Boynton Beach 39 So.3d 487 (Fla. 4"' DCA 2010). There has been no change in
164 law since the Desiderio decision affecting the City's methodology.
165 GENERAL
166 (A) Upon the adoption of this Preliminary Rate Resolution determining the Fire
167 Rescue Assessed Costs and identifying the Assessed Property to be included in the
168 Assessment Roll, the legislative determinations of special benefit ascertained and declared
169 in Section 1.04 of the Ordinance are hereby ratified and confirmed.
170 (B) It is fair and reasonable to use the Improvement Codes and the DOR Codes
171 of the Cost Apportionment and the Parcel Apportionment because: (1) the Tax Roll
172 database employing the use of such property use codes is the most comprehensive,
173 accurate, and reliable information readily available to determine the property use and
174 Building Area for improved property within the City, and (2) the Tax Roll database within
100191103_1 306 - 9001821} 7
175 such property use codes is maintained by the Property Appraiser and is thus consistent
176 with parcel designations on the Tax Roll which compatibility permits the development of
177 an Assessment Roll in conformity with the requirements of the Uniform Method of
178 Collection.
179 (C) The data available in the Improvement Codes is more useful and accurate to
180 determine Building Area than relying exclusively upon the data maintained in the DOR
181 Code alone because (1) the data maintained in the Improvement Codes reveals the
182 existence of a Building with a different use than the use described on the DOR Code, (2)
183 the Improvement Codes represent records maintained by the Property Appraiser with the
184 most information relative to Building Area regardless of property use and (3) the City
185 conducted field work to ascertain Building use when sufficient information was not
186 available.
187
COST APPORTIONMENT
188 (D) It is fair and reasonable and consistent with the decision from the Florida
189 Supreme Court in the case of City of North Lauderdale v. SMM Properties, Inc., 825 So.
190 2d 343 (Fla. 2002), to exclude from the Fire Rescue Assessed Cost amounts determined to
191 constitute the Emergency Medical Services Cost.
192 (E) Apportioning the Fire Rescue Assessed Cost among classifications of
193 improved property based upon historical demand for fire rescue services, but not
194 Emergency Medical Services, is fair and reasonable and proportional to the special benefit
195 received.
196 (F) The Fire Rescue Incident Reports are the most reliable data available to
197 determine the potential demand for fire rescue services from property use and to determine
198 the benefit to property use resulting from the availability of fire rescue services to protect
{0019:103.1 306 - 9001821) 8
199 and serve Buildings located within the Assessed Property and their intended occupants.
200 There exist sufficient Fire Rescue Incident Reports that document the historical demand for
201 fire rescue services from Assessed Property within the Property Use Categories. The
202 Demand Percentage that has been determined for each Property Use Category by an
203 examination of such Fire Rescue Incident Reports is consistent with the experience of the
204 City. Therefore, the use of Demand Percentages that were determined by an examination
205 of Fire Rescue Incident Reports is a fair and reasonable method to apportion the Fire
206 Rescue Assessed Costs among the Property Use Categories.
207 (G) The historical demand for fire rescue service availability for multi - family
208 and single - family Residential Property is substantially similar and any difference in the
209 percentage of documented fire rescue calls to such specific property uses is statistically
210 insignificant.
211 (H) As a result of the urbanized character of the City, the suppression of fire on
212 vacant property primarily benefits the Buildings within the adjacent improved property by
213 the containment of the spread of fire rather than the preservation of the vacant property.
214 Therefore, it is fair and reasonable not to apportion any of the Fire Rescue Assessed Costs
215 to vacant property and the Fire Rescue Incident Reports documenting historical fire
216 services provided to vacant property were thus omitted from the Demand Percentage
217 calculation.
218 (I) The level of services required to meet anticipated demand for the rescue
219 services and the corresponding annual fire rescue budget required to fund fire rescue
220 services provided to non - specific property uses would be required notwithstanding the
221 occurrence of any incidents from such non - specific property uses. Therefore, it is fair and
{00191103.1 306- 9001821} 9
222 reasonable to omit from the Demand Percentage calculation the Fire Rescue Incident
223 Reports documenting fire rescue services provided to non - specific property uses.
224 RESIDENTIAL PARCEL APPORTIONMENT
225 (J) Neither the size nor the value of Residential Property determines the scope
226 of the required fire rescue response. The potential demand for fire rescue services is driven
227 by the existence of a Dwelling Unit and the anticipated average occupant population.
228 (K) Apportioning the Fire Rescue Assessed Cost for fire rescue services
229 attributable to Residential Property on a per Dwelling Unit basis is required to avoid cost
230 inefficiency and unnecessary administration and is a fair and reasonable method of Parcel
231 Apportionment based upon historical call data.
232 (L) The City Commission hereby finds that as a consequence of the transient
233 use and potential extraordinary vacancies within Mobile Home Park Property, which
234 vacancies result in the absence of structures on unoccupied spaces, as compared to other
235 Residential Property, and within Recreational Vehicle Park Property as compared to other
236 Commercial Property, as well as the lack of demand for fire rescue services for unoccupied
237 spaces which lack structures, it is fair and reasonable to provide for an extraordinary
238 vacancy adjustment procedure for Mobile Home Park Property and Recreational Vehicle
239 Park Property, using the procedures established in Resolution R11 -089.
240 NON- RESIDENTIAL PARCEL APPORTIONMENT
241 (M) The separation of improved Non- Residential Property by actual square
242 footage is fair and reasonable for the purpose of Parcel Apportionment because the demand
243 for fire rescue service is determined and measured by the actual square footage of
244 structures and improvements within benefited parcels.
{00191103.1 306 - 9001821} 10
245 (N) The demand for the availability of fire rescue services diminishes at the
246 outer limit of Building size because a fire occurring in a structure greater than a certain size
247 is not capable of being suppressed under expected conditions and given the availability of
248 fire control combat personnel, equipment and apparatus within the City. In such
249 circumstances, the fire control activities of the City are directed to avoid the spread of the
250 fire event to adjacent Buildings. Therefore, it is fair and reasonable to place a cap on the
251 Building Area classification of benefited parcels within Non - Residential Property based on
252 the fire control personnel, equipment, and apparatus available within the City.
253 (0) Institutional Property whose use is exempt from the valorem taxation under
254 Florida law provides facilities and uses to the ownership, occupants, membership as well
255 as the public in general that otherwise might be requested or required to be provided by the
256 City and such property uses serve a legitimate public purpose and provide a public benefit.
257 Therefore, it is fair and reasonable not to impose Fire Rescue Assessments upon such
258 parcels of Institutional Property whose building use is wholly exempt from ad valorem
259 taxation under Florida law. Accordingly, pursuant to Section 2.14 of the Ordinance, no
260 Fire Rescue Assessment shall be imposed upon a parcel of Institutional Property whose use
261 is wholly exempt from the ad valorem taxation under Florida law.
262 (P) Except as provided in subsection (Q) below, Government Property provides
263 facilities and uses to the community, local constituents and the public in general that serves
264 a legitimate public purpose and provides a public benefit. Therefore, it is fair and
265 reasonable not to impose Fire Rescue Assessments upon such parcels of Government
266 Property pursuant to Section 2.14 of the Ordinance.
267 (Q) Government Property that is owned by federal government mortgage
268 entities, such as the Fannie Mae, Freddie Mae, VA and HUD, due to foreclosures are
(00191103.1 306 - 9001821) 11
269 neither serving a governmental purpose nor providing a public benefit but are instead being
270 held by these federal government mortgage entities in a proprietary capacity. Accordingly,
271 these properties shall not be exempted from the Fire Rescue Assessment.
272 (R) Nursing Home Property provides facilities for the care of elderly and
273 disabled residents of the City. Such facilities provide a benefit to the public by offering
274 care and assistance to vulnerable members of the community. Therefore, it is fair and
275 reasonable to impose a Fire Rescue Assessment against Nursing Home Property based on
276 the Fire Rescue Assessment rate established for Institutional Property notwithstanding the
277 Demand Percentage determined for Nursing Home Property to avoid increasing the cost of
278 care for the elderly and disabled.
279 SECTION 6. COST APPORTIONMENT METHODOLOGY.
280 (A) Utilizing data from the Fire Rescue Incident Reports related to the type of
281 calls and physical location of each call, the City assigned fire rescue incidents located
282 within the City to Property Use Categories.
283 (B) Based upon such assignment of Fire Rescue Incident Reports to Property
284 Use Categories, the number of Fire Rescue Incident Reports filed within a sampling period
285 was determined for each Property Use Category. A Demand Percentage was then
286 determined for each Property Use Category by calculating the percentage that Fire Rescue
287 Incident Reports allocated to each Property Use Category bear to the total number of Fire
288 Rescue Incident Reports documented for all Property Use Categories within the sampling
289 period.
290 (C) Appendix C contains a designation of Code Descriptions by Property Use
291 Category with the Improvement Codes. Such correlation between Code Descriptions by
292 Property Use Category on the Fire Rescue Incident Reports and the Improvement Codes is
100191103.1 306 - 90018211 12
293 necessary to allocate the historical demand for fire rescue services, as reflected by the Fire
294 Rescue Incident Reports for Tax Parcels, to the Tax Roll within the Property Use
295 Categories.
296 (D) The Demand Percentage for each Property Use Category was then applied
297 to the Fire Rescue Assessed Costs and the resulting product as the cost allocation of that
298 portion of the Fire Rescue Assessed Costs allocated to each individual Property Use
299 Category.
300 SECTION 7. PARCEL APPORTIONMENT METHODOLOGY.
301 (A) The apportionment among Tax Parcels of that portion of the Fire Rescue
302 Assessed Costs allocated to each Property Use Category under the Cost Apportionment
303 shall be consistent with the Parcel Apportionment methodology described and determined
304 in Appendix F, which Parcel Apportionment methodology is hereby approved, adopted,
305 and incorporated into this Preliminary Rate Resolution by reference.
306 (B) It is hereby acknowledged that the Parcel Apportionment methodology
307 described and determined in Appendix F is to be applied in the calculation of the estimated
308 Fire Rescue Assessment rates established in Section 8 of this Preliminary Rate Resolution.
309 SECTION 8. DETERMINATION OF FIRE RESCUE ASSESSED COSTS;
310 ESTABLISHMENT OF PRELIMINARY FIRE RESCUE
311 ASSESSMENTS.
312
313 (A) The Fire Rescue Assessed Costs to be assessed and apportioned among
314 benefited parcels pursuant to the Cost Apportionment and the Parcel Apportionment for
315 the Fiscal Year commencing October 1, 2017, is the amount determined in the Estimated
316 Fire Rescue Assessment Rate Schedule, which is attached hereto as Appendix E and
317 incorporated herein by reference. The approval of the Estimated Fire Rescue Assessment
318 Rate Schedule by the adoption of this Preliminary Rate Resolution determines the amount
100191103.1 306 - 9001821} 13
319 of the Fire Rescue Assessed Cost. The remainder of such Fiscal Year budget for fire
320 rescue services, facilities, and programs shall be funded from legally available City
321 revenue other than Fire Rescue Assessment proceeds.
322 (B) The estimated Fire Rescue Assessments specified in the Estimated Fire
323 Rescue Assessment Rate Schedule are hereby established to fund the specified Fire Rescue
324 Assessed Costs determined to be assessed in the Fiscal Year commencing October 1, 2017.
325 No portion of such Fire Rescue Assessed Cost is attributable to impact fee revenue that
326 funds capital improvements necessitated by new growth or development. Further, no
327 portion of such Fire Rescue Assessed Costs is attributable to the Emergency Medical
328 Services Cost.
329 (C) The estimated Fire Rescue Assessments established in this Preliminary Rate
330 Resolution shall be the estimated assessment rates applied by the City Manager in the
331 preparation of the preliminary Assessment roll for the Fiscal Year commencing October 1,
332 2017, as provided in Section 9 of this Preliminary Rate Resolution.
333 SECTION 9. ASSESSMENT ROLL.
334 (A) The City Manager is hereby directed to prepare, or cause to be prepared, a
335 preliminary Assessment Roll for the Fiscal Year commencing October 1, 2017, in the
336 manner provided in the Ordinance. The Assessment Roll shall include all Tax Parcels
337 within the Property Use Categories. The City Manager shall apportion the estimated Fire
338 Rescue Assessed Cost to be recovered through Fire Rescue Assessments in the manner set
339 forth in this Preliminary Rate Resolution.
340 (B) A copy of this Preliminary Rate Resolution, documentation related to the
341 estimated amount of the Fire Rescue Assessed Cost to be recovered through the imposition
342 of Fire Rescue Assessments, and the preliminary Assessment Roll shall be maintained on
100191103.1 306 - 90018211 14
343 file in the office of the City Clerk and open to public inspection. The foregoing shall not
344 be construed to require that the preliminary Assessment Roll be in printed form if the
345 amount of the Fire Rescue Assessment for each parcel of property can be determined by
346 the use of a computer terminal available to the public.
347 (C) It is hereby ascertained, determined, and declared that the method of
348 determining the Fire Rescue Assessments for fire rescue services as set forth in this
349 Preliminary Rate Resolution is a fair and reasonable method of apportioning the Fire
350 Rescue Assessed Cost among parcels of Assessed Property located within the City.
351 SECTION 10. METHOD OF COLLECTION.
352 It is hereby declared that pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Ordinance that the Fire
353 Rescue Assessments shall be collected and enforced pursuant to the Uniform Assessment
354 Collection Act for Fiscal Year 2017 -2018.
355 SECTION 11. AUTHORIZATION OF PUBLIC HEARING.
356 There is hereby established a public hearing to be held at 6:30 p.m. on September
357 7, 2017 in the Commission Chambers of City Hall, 100 East Boynton Beach Boulevard,

SECTION E2. ESTIMATED FIRE RESCUE ASSESSMENTS.
(A) The estimated Fire Rescue Assessments to be assessed and apportioned among

(00191103. 306 - 9001821)
APPENDIX F
PARCEL APPORTIONMENT METHODOLOGY
The Cost Apportionment to each Property Use Category and to Mixed Use
Property shall be apportioned among the Tax Parcels within each Property Use Category
and to Mixed Use Property Tax Parcels as follows:
SECTION F -1 RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY. The Fire Rescue
Assessment for each Tax Parcel of Residential Property shall be computed by multiplying
the Demand Percentage attributable to the Residential Property Use Category by the Fire
Rescue Assessed Costs, dividing such product by the total number of Dwelling Units
shown on the Tax Roll within the City for the Residential Property Use Category, and then
multiplying such quotient by the number of Dwelling Units located on such Tax Parcel.
SECTION F -2. NON - RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY. The Fire Rescue
Assessments for each Building of Non - Residential Property (except Nursing Home
Property) shall be computed as follows:
(A) Respectively, multiply the Fire Rescue Assessed Cost by the Demand
Percentage attributable to each of the Non - Residential Property Use Categories. The
resulting dollar amounts reflect the portions of the City's fire rescue budget to be
respectively funded from Fire Rescue Assessment revenue derived from each of the Non-
Residential Property Use Categories.
(B) Separate each building in each of the Non - Residential Property Use
Categories into the appropriate Non- Residential Property Use Category for that Building.
(C) For each Non- Residential Property Use Category, add the Building square
F -1
100191103.1306-9001821)
footage of all the Buildings in each Non - Residential Property Use Category. All Buildings
with a number of square feet exceeding 77,001 will be included in the calculation at 77,001
square feet. This sum reflects an aggregate square footage area for each Non - Residential
Property Use Category to be used by the City in the computation of Fire Rescue
Assessments.
(D) Divide the product of subsection (A) of this Section relative to each of the
Non-Residential Property Use Categories by the sum of the square foot allocations for each
Non - Residential Property Use Category described in subsection (C) of this Section. The
resulting quotient expresses a dollar amount per square foot of improved area ( "the square
foot rate ") to be used in computing Fire Rescue Assessments on each of the respective
Non - Residential Property Use Categories.
(E) For each of the Non - Residential Property Use Categories, other than
Nursing Home Property, multiply the applicable square foot rate calculated under
subsection (D) of this Section by the number of square feet, up to 77,001 square feet, for
each Building in the Non - Residential Property Use Categories. The resulting product for
each Building expresses the amount of Fire Rescue Assessments to be imposed on each
Building of Non - Residential Property.
SECTION F -3. NURSING HOME PROPERTY. Notwithstanding the
procedure in Section F -2 for Non- Residential Property, the Fire Rescue Assessment for
each Building of Nursing Home Property shall be computed as follows:
(A) For Nursing Home Property, multiply the square foot rate determined in
subsection F -2 of this Section for Institutional Property by the number of square feet, up to
F -2
{00191103.1 306 - 90018211
77,001 square feet, for each Building of Nursing Home Property. Such amount shall be
the amount of the Fire Rescue Assessments imposed upon each Building of Nursing Home
Property.
(B) Multiply the amount directed to be imposed as Fire Rescue Assessments on
Nursing Home Property in subsection (A) of this Section by the total square footage of
Buildings related to Nursing Home Property as provided in subsection F -2(C). The
resulting product represents the aggregate revenue to be derived from Fire Rescue
Assessments imposed upon Nursing Home Property.
(C) The remaining portion of the City's fire rescue budget otherwise
attributable to Nursing Home Property, and not funded through Fire Rescue Assessments
imposed upon Nursing Home Property, shall be funded from legally available City revenue
other than Fire Rescue Assessment proceeds.
SECTION F -4. MIXED USE PROPERTY. The Fire Rescue
Assessments for each Tax Parcel classified in two or more Property Use Categories shall
be the sum of the Fire Rescue Assessments computed for each Property Use Category.
