Authorization
REQUEST: City Manager requests the City Commission provide direction
relative to the conditions to be imposed regarding the deannexation of the
property at 2020 Winter Springs Boulevard (Classic Properties; Alan Davis,
Owner) from the City of Oviedo and the annexation of said property into the
City of Winter Springs.
PURPOSE: To clarify issues raised by Mr. Davis in a meeting with the City
Manager and discussions with Commissioner Blake.
Applicable Law, Public Policy or Agreements:
The Davis property was addressed in the Amended Settlement
Agreement relating to the Oviedo Mall, at paragraph 9(b). An
agreement between the City and Mr. Davis followed. This agreement
is attached.
CONSIDERATION:
Correspondence between Mr. Davis and the City has reduced the number
of issues to two (2) major issues: water seNice issue and application costs (for
deannexation payable to the City of Oviedo by Mr. Davis). Application fee to the
City of Winter Springs for annexation; recommended this be waived).
The only unresolved issue is the water seNice connection charge. The
issue(s) are:
1. Who will provide water? Oviedo currently seNes this property. This is
fine with Mr. Davis. The City of Winter Springs typically provides water
to annexed properties. Should Winter Springs require that the property
be connected to our water supply?
.
.
.
2. What if Oviedo cuts the Davis property off from water service? The
City of Winter Springs is ready to service property, within 72 hours of
an Oviedo disconnect.
3. If the City of Winter Sprinos provides water service. who pays
connection charoes? Bond covenants and our ordinance prohibits free
service. Someone must pay those sums estimated not to exceed
$2,500 at present. Mr. Davis objected to paying anything and
apparently is backing off this position by proposing to pay over time (as
yet undefined), interest free, with the $2,500 or fixed fee cap on
charges.
FUNDING:
RECOMMENDATION:
Waive annexation application fee. Require property to be served by the
City of Winter Springs water. Require payment of cost of connection and water
meter installation at the then applicable rate but allow for the payment of said
sums over a three year period at an interest rate reflecting our cost of money
plus 1 %. A lien will be placed against the property for the unpaid balance.
ATTACHMENTS:
City Attorney letter of August 20, 1998 letter to Mr. Davis.
Davis letter of September 3, 1998 to City Attorney.
City Attorney letter of March 17, 1999 to Mr. Davis
Davis letter of March 30, 1999 to City Attorney.

Dear Mr. Guthrie:
Thank you for yOllr recent response to my letter dated September 3, 1998 regarding the
annexation of our property into the City of Winter Springs. Unfortunately, it appears that we may
have some misunderstandings regarding the ~penses resulting from this transaction and the
preparations necessary to effect a. tranSparent transition.
First, I want to assure you that we would be pleased to be a part of Winter Springs-a city that
seems to have unlimited potential and an excellent reputation. Conversely, we are not unhappy
with our association with Oviedo. We are simply moving forward to honor our annexation
commitment dated May 1, 1997.
.
Second, we have done everything possible to make it clear that we were assured by the City of
Winter Springs that we would not incur any out-of-pocketex:pense, that we would not be charged
for taxes and fees for which payment had been made to another municipal govemment, and that
the annexation would be totally tranSparent to Classic Properties. Your comment that "extending
water service... should not exceed a cost to you of $2500.00" is totally contral)' to our
understanding and is not reflected in the Agreement. This is the type of charge thavwe' were
concerned about when we discussed the financial ramifications of the transaction and agreed that
no charge would be made for any water connection necessitated by actions of the City of Oviedo.
Third, your letter states that we would be required to pay the cost of application for deaonexation
to the City of Oviedo. We have not been previously advised of any fee relating to deannexation.
While this certainly falls under our agreement regarding transparency and out-of-pocket expense
being borne by the City of Winter Springs, we recognize the political aspects of Winter Springs
paying this fee. Therefore, we are willing pay this fee if it is a reasonably moderate amount. If
a substantial amount is involved, we will still make payment but would expect an offsetting credit
to our account after the transaction has been completed.

Fourth, I am concerned that your response omitted a specific reference to preventing a ..service
gap" if Oviedo elects to discontinue water service. An intenuption of water service would
adversely affect our tenants very quickly. Additionally, our lease agreements contain a provision
whereby tenants are not required to pay rent during extended water service disruptions ( part of a
hurricane related provision). Since this could have serious financial repercussions for Classic
Properties. we would like to have a specific plan in place to minimize a possible service gap.
And fmally, we appreciate your willingness to schedule a meeting of all key parties to discuss
issues affecting this transaction. Some of the agenda items would include fire and police
protection, extending the existing irrigation system on Winter Springs Boulevard, and relocating
the city limits sign.. I will contact the City Manager's secretary within the next few days to
schedule this very important meeting.
.
Thanks for your assistance. I look forward to seeing you soon.
Sincerely,
C

Re: Annexation to City of Winter Springs
Your letter of September 3, 1998.
Dear Mr. Davis:
Thank you for your letter of September 3, 1998. In a subsequent telephone conversation, we agreed
that this matter would be held in abeyance until the conclusion of a dispute between the Cities of Winter
Springs and Oviedo. The latter issue is now resolved.
So it is appropriate that we resolve the issue of the status of the annexation of your property into
the City of Winter Springs immediately following deannexation from the City of Oviedo in accordance with
the relevant agreements between you and the City of Winter Springs.
We appreciate your cooperation to date and your re-statement of your commitment to honor the
provisions of your agreement with the City of Winter Springs.
Let me respond to the questions in your letter of September 3, 1998 utilizing the section titles set
forth in your letter, as follows.
1. Water Service. The City is committed to serving your property promptly if there is an
interruption of water service by the City of Oviedo. Adequate water and sewer capacity is
available to your property. Pursuant to paragraph 3 of our agreement, the rate for water
and sewer service will be the same rate charged other customers of the Winter Springs
Utility System. Extending water service to your property, including the installation of a
water meter, should not exceed a cost to you of $2,500.00
2. Taxes and Fees. There will be no duplication of previously paid building permit or
inspections fees; sewer hook up or other fees. There will be a water meter and connection

.
charge as would be applicable to any new water service customer served by the City of
Winter Springs. The Agreement between Classic Properties of Central Florida, Inc. with
the City otherwise addresses this issue.
3. Street/City Address. The U.S. Postal Service controls the decision regarding post office and
address reassignment following. This question has been raised a number of times before
by others annexed into our City. Some want new addresses indicating that they are in the
City while others want to maintain prior addresses, at least for awhile. The post office
controls this decision and the City has no say in this determination. The City will not urge
a change in your address designation.
4.
Out-of-Pocket Expenses. The City's position is that the Winter Springs City Attorney
would assist you with the petitions to de-annex from the City of Oviedo and annex into the
City of Winter Springs but not represent you, in any such proceedings. I will appear in
support of your de-annexation request before the City of Oviedo per my client's (the City
Commission of the City of Winter Springs) instructions. If the City of Oviedo denies the
petition for de-annexation of your property, the City of Winter Springs is committed to
enforcing its rights to this action under our agreement between the ci.ties. The City will
cover the costs of any such legal action. You will be required to pay the cost of application
to the City of Oviedo for de-annexation of your property. City ofWmter Springs will waive
its application fees for annexation into the City.
.
5. Other Issues. The City Manager and his staff, and I, will be glad to meet with you on these
issues. Please schedule that with the City Manager's secretary at 327-5957.
I attach the following:
(a) a copy of your September 3, 1998 lett{:r to me.
(b) a copy of the May 27, 1997 agreement'between Classic Homes and the City;
(c) a copy of my letter to you dated August 20, 1998.
The City Commission recently discussed this matter and urged that I require you file your
application with the City of Oviedo to deannex your property by April 12, 1999. Thank you.

Dear Mr. Guthrie:
I
This letter is in response to your correspondence dated August 20, 1998, regar~ing annexation into
Winter Springs, I have taken this opportunity to respond in writing in order to minimize the
possibility ofmisunderstanrungs and to facilitate any subsequent dissemination o[these comments to
I
your colleagues. !
i
I would like to begin by advising you that Classic Properties will honor all co~tments to the City
of Winter Springs. As you are probably aware, we took the first step wh~n we advised Ron
McLemore of our ,viUingness to move forward with annexation upon receipt in February of our
I
Certificate of Completion from the City of Oviedo. We will continue to abide Py the provisions of
our written and oral agreements. I
Before we petition the City of Oviedo for deannexation, we feel that specific contingency plans
should be developed for several issues that could adversely affect Classic P~operties and/or our
tenants, The following issues were discussed with Winter Springs officials whq assured us that the
I
annexation would be totally transparent and that all out-of-pocket expense would be borne by the
City of Winter Springs: i
1. Water Se~ic~ - We were advised that potable water lines ~e(e
available to service our building if Oviedo elected to discontinue
service and that no charge would be made for tbe conne~tion,
However, we need assurance that Winter Springs will move ql~ick1y
to prevent a "service gap" if Oviedo takes punitive action. Obvidusly,
Winter Springs needs to develop an installation plan to get wa~er to
the south side of the building, I

i
Taxes and Fees - We were advised that Winter Springs would not
impose any duplicate taxes and/or fees for permits or service~ for
which payment had already been made to other munifipal
governments. Written assurance would be appreciated. !
I
I
Street/City Address - After learning that. d~aJ:?n~xation w~s a
possibility and before the current street/city addresses were assigned
by the Post Office, I personally contacted the Post Offices in wfnter
Springs and Oviedo and explained that our building could be annexed
into Winter Springs. The Winter Springs Post Office advised th~ the
decision would be made by the Oviedo Post Office. The Oviedo !post
Office advised that our building would continue to be served by the
Oviedo Post Office and would have an Oviedo address, even if it }vere
to be annexed by Winter Springs. Obviously, the annexation would
not be transparent if the "City Addresslt changed to Winter Springs.
A significant amount of out-of-pocket expense would be necessab to
replace letterhead, business cards, etc. and to advise supplier~ and
clients. We would appreciate your assistance in confirming the
statements of the Oviedo Post Office. I
Out-Of-Pocket Expenses - Although this is a reiteration of a pre~ious
comment, I think it bears repeating. We were advised that qb.ssic
Properties would not be required to fund any expenses related tJ this
action. We were also advised that the Winter Springs attorney ~'OUld
provide all necessary legal representation, if any, without charge. We
would like to be certain there is no misunderstanding regardin this
I
n:.latter. i
Other Concerns - Since the Winter Springs officials are much ~nore
experienced than we are with respect to annexation issues, we would
like to schedule a meeting to identify any other possible situation~ that
could adversely affect Classic Properties and/or our tenants. Beqause
we have a good relationship with City of Oviedo officials, we ~ould
prefer to avoid a costly, prolonged battle like those that have occurred
recently involving contested annexations. I

In summary, we are honored that Winter Springs is interested in annexing our pi operty and we look
forward to a close working relationship with YOU' and your colleagues. Ho ever, an uneventful
transition from Oviedo to Winter Springs seems far more important than one that is fraught with'
unnecessary effort and expense. Unless there is some compelling reason for w "ch I am unaware, I ~
recommend that we thoroughly address all issues (including politics) and devel p a well-considered'
strategy for effecting a successful annexation.
