City Commission Meeting 11.5.2026

The City of Hollywood City Commission’s regular meeting on November 5, 2026, included several procurement and capital-project decisions. Commissioners unanimously approved an amendment to the Orange Brook Golf and Country Club development agreement with PPG Orangebrook Owner LLC, extending the entitlement deadline to September 10, 2027, revising the plan to retain 36 holes and add a lighted 18-hole par-three course, and establishing updated review milestones. The developer will pay the $6,125 CBRE commission in two installments. The Commission also approved a purchase order to Andritz Separation Inc. for rehabilitation of six belt filter presses for up to approximately $1.1 million, plus a one-year service and maintenance agreement with two optional renewals totaling up to $150,000. It approved up to $2.3 million for State Contracting and Engineering Corp. to provide construction-management-at-risk services for Rotary Park ballfield improvements, and $22,600 for Craven and Thompson Associates’ construction-phase services. A separate purchase order to Matheny Fire and Emergency for a tractor-drawn aerial apparatus was approved for up to approximately $2.2 million through the Florida Sheriffs Association cooperative purchasing program.

The Commission unanimously established the Hollywood Beach Public Benefit and Resilience Trust Fund, funded by developers using optional beach-overlay bonuses, with contributions set at $17,500 per hotel room and $20,000 per residential unit. An amendment passed 4–3 to prioritize projects in the precinct generating the funds when a qualifying project exists there; the amended resolution then passed unanimously. Commissioners also approved on first reading, 6–1, an ordinance updating the city’s red-light enforcement rules to align with state law and authorize specified camera locations; a road-safety workshop and additional information were requested before further consideration, and no camera vendor contract was approved at this meeting. Other actions included unanimous approval of an ordinance correcting employee-retirement-fund drafting errors and appointment of three members to the Emerald Hills Safety Enhancement Board. A proposed review of food-truck regulations was referred to staff, and commissioners discussed future budget pressures following passage of Amendment 3.
