Mayor Partyka read a personal statement and mentioned several individuals he had been associated with regarding the proposed Respite Center project. Mayor Partyka stated, "I represented only one (1) person throughout this transaction which included contract offer agreement, due diligence, and close, and that person is Marie Chowanski over there, the former owner. I have stated this repeatedly and legally my fiduciary responsibility is to my client and that is what I did." Mayor Partyka asked Ms. Chowanski, "Were you my client - just nod your head." Mayor Partyka then stated, "Let the record show that Ms. Chowanski nodded yes to that fact."

Mayor Partyka responded, "No, I don't - I don't deny that." Further discussion.

Attorney Garganese introduced this Agenda Item and stated, "What's your pleasure, whether you want to request a - Formal Ethics Opinion regarding some question - the use of City business cards." Commissioner Martinez suggested to Attorney Garganese that "You were supposed to have done some further research and then come back to us with a final decision or Opinion which hasn't come forth. So, I don't know why this Item is still here because I am still interested in an Opinion as to an answer to the questions I put to you." Discussion. Deputy Mayor Gennell spo~ on what the mis-use of business cards involved, and also mentioned her concern with an Elected Official conducting personal business, and not escorting guests - at City Hall over the Easter weekend. Deputy Mayor Gennell then stated, "I would be in favor of asking for the Commission on Ethics to give us a Formal CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - APRIL 8. 2002 PAGE 6 OF 26 Opinion since the Commission asked the Mayor to cease doing that and he has insisted that he won't cease - I think we need to ask for the Formal Opinion." "I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE DIRECT THE CITY ATTORNEY TO REQUEST A FORMAL OPINION FROM THE STATE ATTORNEY'S OFFICE OR THE COMMISSION ON ETHICS ON THIS ISSUE WHICH WILL SET THE STANDARD, NOT FOR THE MAYOR BUT FOR ALL OF US HERE AND IT WILL CLEAR THE WAY FOR FUTURE REFERENCE IN CASE ONE OF US DECIDES TO BREAK THE RULES." MOTION BY COMMISSIONER MARTINEZ. SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER MILLER. DISCUSSION. COMMISSIONER McLEOD ASKED ATTORNEY GARGANESE, "MY QUESTION HERE WOULD BE - IF I AM CONDUCTING BUSINESS FOR SOMEBODY AND THEY ASK FOR MY CARD - WOULD IT BE IMPROPER TO GIVE MY CARD TO SOMEBODY I WAS DOING BUSINESS WITH, HERE IN THE AREA?" ATTORNEY GARGANESE REFERRED TO THE AGENDA ITEM AND COMMENTED THAT VARIOUS FACTORS WOULD HAVE TO BE CONSIDERED. VOTE: COMMISSIONER BLAKE: NAY DEPUTY MAYOR GENNELL: AYE COMMISSIONER MILLER: AYE COMMISSIONER MARTINEZ: AYE COMMISSIONER McLEOD: NAY MOTION CARRIED. With discussion, Deputy Mayor Gennell stated, "Question 2., the question that I asked, while engaged in the solicitation of customers for their personal business, may a City Commissioner or Mayor insert a City business card in personal business correspondences - put in the word 'use' for purposes of promoting themselves for personal profit or gain? That is my question that I would like answered by the Ethics Commission." Commissioner Martinez said, "3., 4., and 5." Attorney Garganese then stated, "3., 4., and 5. and Deputy Mayor Gennell and Commissioner Miller want question number 2." Commissioner Blake said, "Regarding question 2., "I would only ask that we change a part of the question, where it says 'Personal business correspondences for purposes of promoting themselves for personal profit or gain?' - for 'Purposes' - I would rather see 'With the intent' - I would like to see the word 'Intent' in there because I think that is one of the key issues that the.Ethics Commission looks at on any ruling." CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - APRIL 8, 2002 PAGE 7 OF 26 Mayor Partyka said, "Is that agreeable to this Commission?" Deputy Mayor Gennell said, "That's fine." There were no objections to Mayor Partyka's questions. Furthermore, Deputy Mayor Gennell said to Attorney Garganese, "If you think they can answer 3., 4., and 5., I would say go ahead." Commissioner Martinez added, "Yes." Next discussion followed on the use of City Hall on nights and weekends. Manager McLemore stated, "I think as a general rule that everyone would benefit if we had a clear understanding about the use of the building on nights and weekends for personal business. I think we need to follow that policy for everybody's protection." Commissioner Blake inquired of Manager McLemore, "Do we have a policy of who is allowed to use this building and who isn't?" Commissioner Blake added, "I think we need to really spell out just who ought to be here, and who should not." Commissioner Blake then suggested, "If we are going to talk about it like this, then we need to put it down on a policy, put it in a Resolution and we need to pass it through this Commission." Manager McLemore stated, "No problem." Commissioner Miller said, "I don't think anybody should be in this building during unnormal duty hours - I don't care who they are." Commissioner Miller added, "I don't think it's appropriate for any of us to have our families running around in this building when it is closed." Mayor Partyka stated, "Do we need to put this on an Agenda to come up with some rules - that make some sense and we just turn it over to the City Manager." Manager McLemore stated, "I'll write you a Resolution." Mayor Partyka stated, "Is that okay with everybody?" No objections were voiced. Deputy Mayor Gennell stated, "Now the problem that I have and I would continue to have is with unescorted people." Manager McLemore added, "If you are in this building, you need to be here for a public purpose." Further, Manager McLemore said, "We'll come up with something I think that is reasonable." Commissioner McLeod stated that he very much agreed with Commissioner Martinez in that only City business should be conducted at City Hall.

Attorney Garganese further clarified that "With respect to your Motion, I would just simply add that if you are going to award the bid, it's subject to certain contract contingencies being put into the contract for the contractor to agree to and sign." Commissioner Blake inquired, "Do we have some sort of an agreement that holds land owners in that area, and of course the main one we are talking about is Commissioner McLeod, that holds them 'Harmless' in the event of some sort of litigation that comes up because of this City project." Attorney Garganese stated, "Yes sir. In the - Easement documents we agree to defend the property owners that have granted the Easements to the City for this City project."

Mayor Partyka stated, "Tuskawilla Trail - I have had a listing on Tuskawilla Trail as an agent for almost two (2) years. The owner of the property is Larry Beasley and Mary Anne Beasley - that's been there for like I said, a couple of years and we are actively marketing that property so I .iJ..lst wanted to put that on the record."

Mr. Charles Carrington, AICP, Community Development Department Director addressed the Commission and stated that "Staff would recommend one thing that happened and that is that neither of these actions take effect until the property is surveyed by the property owners and the record plat is prepared for recordation eliminating those lot lines from the old street and the lot lines from this residual parcel so that the lots that they own are shown as one parcel of iand. And I believe that the "PUD" classification should be the number one PUD in the Zoning Ordinance - and when it comes back to you we will have all of this clarified." CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - APRIL 8, 2002 PAGE 14 OF 26 Commissioner Blake stated, "It may not make a difference today, it's just that the language has to stipulate which "PUD" it is, that's probably a fine tuning effort that we can go through between now and the Second Reading." Attorney Garganese responded, "Yes. I would agree -let's take a look at it and we'll come back with further explanation at the Second Reading."

Attorney Garganese read Ordinance 2002-08 by 'Title' only. Ms. Jimette Cook, Manager, Code Enforcement Division, Community Development Department informed the Commission of an email from Beautification of Winter Springs Board Member Alice Bard. Mayor Partyka opened the "Public Input" portion of this Agenda Item. Ms. Vicki Smith, 206 Heatherwood Court, Winter Springs, Florida: spoke of thousands of trees being destroyed on pearby County property; the merits of trees; and asked that any Arbor Ordinance enacted should in fact protect trees in our community. CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - APRIL 8, 2002 PAGE ISOF26 Ms. Carol Fouler, 208 Heatherwood Court, Winter Springs, Florida: as the Vice President of the Reserve at Tuscawilla and representing the subdivision addressed their concerns with the proposed new Arbor Ordinance and "the liberal use of the word 'may;'" loopholes; and Section 5-9. (Q) a) size of replacement trees and how developers are using these loopholes. Ms. Sharon Ta cka berry, 634 Cheoy Lee Circle, Winter Springs, Florida: said that she was in support of the previous two (2) speakers, and stated that she was challenging the Commission to communicate with Homeowner's Association representatives to help in similar processes. Mr. Brian Oliver, 630 Cheoy Lee Circle, Winter Springs, Florida: regarding the Arbor Ordinance, Mr. Oliver stated that he felt the Code was more lenient with developers; remarked about "Low Impact Residential;" and commented that a water truck on the Tuskawilla Park development project has not moved. Ms. Helga Schwarz, 720 Galloway Court, Winter Springs, Florida: suggested that equity for Homeowner's be considered in terms of tree replacement criteria. Ms. Schwarz also complimented Mr. Mingea on his service and assistance and suggested that the City Commission give him direction. Mr. Michael Tackaberry, 634 Cheoy Lee Circle, Winter Springs, Florida: commented that he hoped that trees were being added per the plan, and that Inspectors check on this by referencing plans, prior to certifying the work. The "Public Input" portion of this Agenda Item was closed. Discussion ensued on preserving trees and urban development. Commissioner Blake pointed out that, "The Ordinance as I read it does not mention a single Zoning district." Attorney Garganese explained, "Looking back at some of the Town Center development projects that have been approved, we have used the Development Agreement vehicle and the preferred Plant List vehicle for purposes of addressing the tree issue. Those mechanisms are inserted into this Ordinance." Discussion followed on property rights; notification to residents; and replacement ratios. Commissioner Blake stated, "I think the one-to-one is overly burdensome and doesn't get us to where we ultimately want to be." Commissioner Miller stated, "My concern there is that we treat all the citizens of Winter Springs the same, so some of the concerns that the residents have about us allowing developers to clear-cut the piece of property that if they're taking down trees that they are being subject to the same terms and conditions that everyone else is - I think was made clear this evening." Tape 3/Side A CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - APRIL 8. 2002 PAGE 16 OF 26 Regarding Appendix "C" of the proposed Arbor Ordinance, Commissioner McLeod asked Ms. Cook, "I would advise us that on the average cost, we ought to put a date on this thing." Ms. Cook stated, "Good point." Discussion continued on the replacement ratio and Mr. Mingea pointed out "I believe those were plants not inches - as for the number of tree removals to the number of plant replacements." Commissioner McLeod suggested that a legend be added to Appendix "c" which would further explain the concept. Mr. Mingea stated, "That can be approved." Commissioner McLeod added, "I would appreciate that being done" and further stated, "Let's explain the ratio - what it means on the Appendix." Mr. Mingea added, "Certainly" and also suggested that some "Parameters" be established. Next, Commissioner McLeod inquired, "How do you get the same credit for a twenty inch (20") tree as you do for a five inch (5") tree, because our Code basically says anything over four inches (4") in caliper has to be counted?" Mr. Mingea stated, "I still believe it needs a little more tweaking than what 5-8. (f!) has." Discussion ensued next on "Specimen" trees. Ms. Cook stated, "So, if it's a "really big tree, over twenty inches (20") it's really special and it's going to come to you before you can take it out, so that way we can address how are you going to replace it. Are you going to replace it with more than just the five (5) to one (1), or the one (1) to one (1), or the three (3) to one (1)." Commissioner McLeod said, "Shouldn't that be a footnote also down at the bottom of this Appendix that this Appendix would be adjusted by the City Commission based on any trees being removed larger than twenty inches (20")?" Commissioner McLeod added, "It also allows them when they come back to look at it - it would tell the Commission in the future that they would change the ratio requirements." Ms. Cook stated, "Sure, we can do that - put a footnote on there, if you would like." Deputy Mayor Gennell said, "How do we resolve this perception of a discrepancy between the requirements on an individual homeowner as opposed to the requirements on a developer?" Ms. Cook addressed this issue and said that she felt that this was a tree protection Ordinance. Furthermore, Deputy Mayor Gennell asked, "Did we delete in its entirety that was giving them so many trees in the place that they weren't going to remove them anyway, or they couldn't have used that plan?" Ms. Cook responded, "It was changed on page 2 of your Agenda Item." On page 13, Section 5-10., (f!) and (g) were referenced. Deputy Mayor Gennell said, Regarding (f!) - "It has to do with temporary placement of materials, machinery or soil - it says it shall be unlawful to place material, machinery, or temporary soil deposits within five feet (5') of any trunk stand having a diameter of - and yet we have gone to the trouble of establishing Tree.Protection Zones - and lay them out quite carefully. Why does this not refer to the Tree Protection Zone?" Ms. Cook stated, "You're right, we should make that consistent." Deputy Mayor Gennell further pointed out that "If you see on (g), you did do that - you used Tree Protection Zones. Well, either you are going to have a Tree Protection Zone and protect the tree or you are going to just arbitrarily let , CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - APRIL 8, 2002 PAGE 17 OF 26 them pile their machinery within five feet (5') of the trunk." Ms. Cook then said, "Why don't we just omit the words within five feet (5') and just say it shall be unlawful to place material, machinery, or temporary soil deposits within the Tree Protection Zone." Commissioner Blake left the Commission chambers at 10:22 p.m. On page I of Appendix "B," Deputy Mayor Gennell stated there was a typographical error regarding the reference noted as "Devils Waliking Stick." Others were on page 2, noted as "Rusty Lyonia" and also "Shiny Ly90nia." "Gabbage Palm" was suggested by Ms. Cook as another typographical error. Lastly, Deputy Mayor Gennell pointed out an additional typographical error on page 1 of2 on Appendix "C," Tabecuia." With further discussion on the Tree Lists and why they weren't alphabetized, Deputy Mayor Gennell said, "I would suggest that you do." Ms. Cook and Mr. Mingea agreed that the Lists could be alphabetized. Commissioner Martinez suggested that on page 13, Section 5-l O. (~), the statement "Upon written request, the City Forester, on a case by case basis, may allow material or temporary soil deposits to be stored within the Protective Barrier if no other storage is available" - should be deleted from this Section.
