Ctty Manager
Dear Mr. McLemore:
The State Statute establishing the Seminole County Expressway Authority provides that the five (5)
County Commissioners and two (2) elected municipal officials within the County serve as Authority
members. The Statute also provides that the Board of County Commissioners select the municipal
members unless two-thirds of the municipalities jointly recommend in writing to the County
Commissioners_ their selection of a member for appointment within thirty days of a vacancy occurring.
The completion of the term of the municipal position held by Commissioner Whitey Eckstein of
Sanford is now upon us.
Historically, the Council of Local Governments (CALNO) has served as a forum for recommending
municipal representatives to serve on the Expressway Authority. Continuing in that role, CALNO at
its meeting of October 7, 1998, unanimously recommended that Sanford Commissioner Whitey
Eckstein be reappointed as a member of the Seminole County Expressway Authority.
CALNO asks that each City endorse CALNO's recommendation by placing this matter before their
respective Councilor Commission for official action and advise the County Commission Chairman
Randy Morris in writing of the action taken by November 1, 1998.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter. If you have any questions, please call me at 665-
