Mr. Stanley Stewart, 537 Woodview Drive, Longwood, Florida: addressed the City Commission on the proposed sketches and stated, "The owner asked me to give him something more first class, and this is far better, 1 believe far more first class, more upscale than the metal awnings. Ms. Sahlstrom stated, "It is my understanding that this area here, that the doorway is set back five feet (5') from the front of these columns, so there is a little bit of a gap between the front of the building that you can pass through from front door to front door." Mr. Stewart then explained, "That is a floor plan of the building. It doesn't show the overhang on that sheet, but the overhang is five feet (5'), projects five feet (5') out from the building line." Deputy Mayor Blake noted, "The problem that 1 have is, nowhere in my packet with all the photos and drawings that we have, is there anything that depicts that and since this is the Record that we would be approving this design on."

Mr. Brian Reece, 721 Virginia Drive, Winter Park, Florida: addressed the City Commission. Commissioner Miller said to Mr. Reece, "He did see the plans?" Mr. Reece remarked, "No he did not see the plans. We just talked about it." With further discussion, Deputy Mayor Blake said to Mr. Reece, "With the new type of Zoning classification that the County and 1 guess the - cities that are part of the CRA (Community Redevelopment Agency), are trying to put in place, would actually allow even higher intensity development, three (3) to five (5) and in same places up to even ten (10) story buildings, along [US Highway] 17-92 as part of the redevelopment effort and 1 didn't know if you folks have any exposure to that or have even given it any consideration." Mr. Reece noted, "I have not given any consideration to that." Continuing, Mr. Reece remarked, "Well we can consider it, but we kind of already set our standards in the back of what we want to build and what we want as tenants. Commissioner Miller added, "You ought to go and talk to Kevin [Fall] and show him what you have got." Mr. Reece then said, "I think 1 will investigate that, definitely." Deputy Mayor Blake then remarked, "Well if we approve this tonight, 1 wouldn't want that to be the end of it..." Mr. Reece replied, "Oh it won't be the end, 1 will still investigate it."

Tape 1/Side B CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - AUGUST 14, 2006 PAGE 6 OF 19 REGULAR AGENDA REGULAR 300. Community Development Department Requests The City Commission Consider And Approve The Final Engineering Plans For The West End Center, Phase I. Mr, Brian Fields, P.E., City Engineer, Public Works Department presented his opening remarks. Much discussion. Mr. Tim Schutz, P.E., Klima-Weeks Engineering, 401 West Colonial Drive, Suite 2, Orlando, Florida: Commissioner Donald A. Gilmore asked, "How are you going to keep this bottom from plugging?" Mr. Schutz asked, "The bottom of the pond?" Commissioner Gilmore noted, "The bottom of your detention pond. How are you going to keep this bottom from plugging?" Commissioner Gilmore explained, "It clogs up. You have got water, you have got silt, you have got - paper falling in there, you have got all kinds that is going to fall into that pond. You have got - one of three ways of getting rid of the water, You evaporate it, you perc it, or you let it flow out onto that property in the back - who owns that property back there?" Mr, Schutz responded, "I believe that's part of Tuskawilla Trails." Commissioner Gilmore added, "So you are dumping the water on Tuskawilla Trails." Mr. Schutz remarked, "Yes, we are maintaining and assisting historical drainage patterns which is common. " Further discussion. Commissioner Miller stated, "I think as the Town Center begins to build out, one point was brought up which I have never thought about, and that is that the retention pond that we have out here behind City Hall, has a ramp in it, and I noticed there is a ramp on this one also. So, over the years as foliage grows in these things and it eventually settles to the bottom, it would be possible I could see where you get a layer of muck down there, so whatever the percolation rate is today, gallons per water that is going into the aquifer, would all of a sudden stop and you would have a rising level of water, so the next storm comes along - do we have something in our City Ordinances or City government plans that requires people to look at this issue; maybe to dredge these things out once every five (5) years, or, I don't know how often; and if we don't maybe we ought to?" CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - AUGUST 14,2006 PAGE 7 OF 19 With further brief discussion on this, Commissioner Miller added, "It does occur to me that this is something that maybe we should look into." Deputy Mayor Blake asked, "What size are the parking spaces?" Mr. Fields responded, "Nine by eighteen (9 x 18)." Deputy Mayor Blake added, "Why can't they change it to ten by twenty (10 x 20)?" With further comments, Deputy Mayor Blake remarked, "We should change that." Discussion. Deputy Mayor Blake said "Point of Order " and spoke of the discussion. Deputy Mayor Blake asked, "Has this plan been reviewed, designed by, and approved by a Registered, Professional Engineer, and signed off on?" Mr. Schutz responded, "That's myself, yes." With further discussion, Commissioner Gilmore asked Mr. Schutz, "As the Professional Engineer, will you say that in the future the water flowing out of here will be no more than the water that is flowing from here to here today?" Mr. Schutz remarked, 'Yes, I believe that." Discussion. "I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION WE APPROVE THE ITEM." MOTION BY DEPUTY MAYOR BLAKE. SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER KREBS. DISCUSSION.

Krebs Requesting The City Commission Consider Information Related To Board Of Trustees (Pension Board) Issues, Including "Fiduciary Responsibility". Commissioner Joanne M. Krebs introduced this Agenda Item for discussion. Tape 2/Side A CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - AUGUST 14,2006 PAGE 8 OF 19 Discussion ensued with City Attorney, Anthony A. Garganese, Manager McLemore and Members of the City Commission. Regarding Training for Fiduciaries; Manager McLemore said, "I think we'll wind up with a plan that has two (2) maybe three (3) tiers of training, based on what the actual fiduciary responsibilities are." Furthermore, Manager McLemore remarked, "It's a great question. It is one that is current; it is upon us. The Commigsioner is correct, we need to be concerned about this. Weare driving toward that answer based upon your previous direction. There is a free course out there that doesn't cost anybody anything, that is provided by the State Retirement system, and maybe that is what we should do." With further discussion, Commissioner Krebs said, "When you ask the question on who has a fiduciary responsibility, shouldn't we know that - shouldn't we already know that?" Manager McLemore noted, "You have a Plan document that's not consistent with the way we're actually working and that document has got to be cleaned up; and was one of the reasons that we need to rewrite the entire Plan and we need to do a very, very good job of nailing these roles and responsibilities so we can very much clarify who needs what training, at what level." Manager McLemore added, "I am with you. We don't want to leave it out there any longer than we have to and I'd like to say to you that we're going to be back to you within sixty (60) days." Discussion. Commissioner Krebs stated, "That is my whole purpose is to educate::- if I am the only one and nobody else wants to know about it, that is fine, but I do want to know about it!" Manager McLemore then pointed out, "If it's ruled that the City Commission are Fiduciaries and have got to have a certain level of training related to that, then that's going to become a Policy that this Commission is going to establish and the Commission is going to have to abide by it." Continuing, Commissioner Krebs said to Manager McLemore, "I just have an obligation, and I want to fulfill that obligation." Manager McLemore commented, "We are on the same page with you one hundred percent (100 %)." Commissioner Krebs added, "So I want you to commit then that you'all have it cleaned up in sixty (60) days?" Manager McLemore responded, "That's certainly my goal; absolutely." Commissioner Gilmore stated, "There is probably a lot of different responsibilities in this Plan; and for example, which one does the Trustees have? What is their responsibility in this Plan?" Manager McLemore responded, "All of that will be lined out and you will make those decisions when you update your Plan." Commissioner Gilmore then spoke about the Police and Fire personnel and asked, "Are we going to be reviewing that issue too?" Manager McLemore said, "If you want to review that issue, it is going to substantially delay getting this project done." CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - AUGUST 14,2006 PAGE 9 OF 19 Discussion. Commissioner Gilmore said, "So this will all be covered, when we sit in the future on this?" Manager McLemore said, "If you want to go down this road, you need to say we want to go down this road, and then we will prepare a study methodology for you to get there. It could be quite expensive, and it could incur a fair amount of time. And - what I am trying to say to you is that's a process in my opinion that's second after we get this settled down, and allow yourself time to think through that one." Discussion. Deputy Mayor Blake stated, "There is merit in talking about the restatement of the Plan - talking about defining the Plan, who has which responsibilities. I think that is important to point out; and to have listed and to make sure that we develop a Plan, adopt a Plan, and follow a Plan." Deputy Mayor Blake added, "The issue of Fiduciary responsibility and liability remains the same. And, we do have an obligation to provide training for those people who are involved with the management of the Plan; and that includes the Pension Board, that includes this Commission, and it also includes the City Manager, probably the Finance Director and possibly even the City Attorney at some level - and General Services." Deputy Mayor Blake added, "Is it prudent to wait until we get the Plan restated or determine what it says, to determine who should have training? No, I don't think so. I think we are way behind the curve. I have spoken on this issue many times before and we haven't quite gotten it there yet." Furthermore, Deputy Mayor Blake remarked, "The Department of Labor has spent many of your - Federal government tax dollars providing guidelines for training, exactly what should be included, and what should not be and I think that we need to make sure that the - training plan encompasses all of those separate issues as they pertain to our Plan." Continuing, Deputy Mayor Blake noted, "I think we should - go forward and get the information on the different training programs that are available, bring it back to the Commission; get some professional advice on what the standards should be and whether or not each of the potential programs meet those standards, and I think it is best to do it here on site or at least do it in the City." Deputy Mayor Blake added, "I don't think there is any reason to wait on putting together the training for the Plan restatement to be completed. " Commissioner Krebs remarked, "I would like to learn more about 175/185." With further discussion, Commissioner Krebs added, "I would really want to understand it." Commissioner Krebs added, "Yes, I want to know all about that one too." CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - AUGUST 14,2006 PAGE 10 OF 19 Mayor Bush said, "If the Commission has no objection, I would like to bring this issue up at the Mayors and Managers Meeting which is this Thursday morning. Other cities surely have the same issue and maybe we could partner with them to share the cost of bringing Consultants here, after we decide what we are going to do. So, if you have no objection, the Manager and I will bring this up to the other cities, this Thursday morning and see what kind of reason we get." There were no objections noted. Deputy Mayor Blake said, "It is a great idea." Commissioner Krebs stated, "Yes it is. I think we should do that with a lot of different issues." "I WOULD MAKE A MOTION - TO DIRECT STAFF WITHIN THE NEXT THIRTY (30) DAYS TO COME BACK TO US WITH A LIST OF TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES THAT WOULD MEET THE CRITERIA NECESSARY TO FULFILL THE FIDUCIARY REQUIREMENTS OF RUNNING THE PENSION FUND."

Our hope was that the State Legislature would reinstate the proviso language in the Budget that would take us back to our previous match requirement, unfortunately, that did not happen. So, we are coming before you again this year asking for a contribution for the local dollars that we need to generate match funds." ; ~ Ms. Willis added, "We're asking you for seventy-five hundred dollars ($7,500.00)."
