CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING -SEPTEMBER 8, 2008 PAGE 9 OF 27 Mr. Lacy then explained, "None of our events are actually going to be on Tuskawilla [Road] so, it would be possible to leave Tuskawilla [Road] open; we'd just have to pay close attention to the pedestrian traffic that might be crossing Tuskawilla [Road] to get over to the stage and the music events. And, we're very sensitive about the grass and the quality of the shrubbery that is going to be down the center of Blumberg Boulevard, and we've gone to great pains to try to find an aesthetically pleasing way to address that concern." Continuing, Mr. Lacey explained, "So, we've allocated quite a bit of manpower to patrol that area. I think we're going to place the tents in a way that discourages people from going back in to the nice shrubbery and we're going to have people there from Police Officers to Police Explorers to other volunteers, taking special care to make sure that the pedestrian traffic is first of all, diverted away from that." Discussion followed on parking, volunteers, Police assistance, and deposits. Commissioner Brown asked Manager McLemore, "Have you met with Event Planner - who wanted to work with the City, whose information I have sent you?" Manager McLemore said, "I have not heard back from that person yet." Commissioner Brown added, "She may be here tonight. I think she is going to introduce herself during Public Input. This might be great opportunity to partner with her and see what she might be able to bring to the table over the next month." With further comments, Manager McLemore noted, "I'll be happy to talk with her if you will just give me that discretion and this is not that issue of finding that person. I can have a scope of services for her or anyone else, just for this event, but it will be different from the RFP (Request For Proposal) we're going to put out." Discussion. Mr. Lacey stated, "We are asking for a Waiver of the fees that are on this that are six thousand four hundred and seventy dollars ($6,470.00) and the refundable deposit and per your suggestion Mayor, any additional funds that come in through Brighthouse, we would apply that to this dollar first. If it came in excess of that, we would take it, but if we got another six thousand dollars, we would apply that to this and compensate the City for that." Tape 2/Side A b Mr. Paul Partyka, 292 Solaris Wharf Street, Winter Springs, Florida: addressed the City Commission on this Event. CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING -SEPTEMBER 8, 2008 PAGE 10 OF 27 Commissioner McGinnis commented, "As we sit down and look at our Final Budget, we may decide to in fact take something else out..." Commissioner Krebs noted, "...We might..." Commissioner McGinnis continued, "...In place of this." Continuing, Commissioner McGinnis noted, "Now we are going to talk about another Event, so I would suggest to the Commission that when we sit down, we might substitute this for another Event. But, I agree, it is the visibility, the name recognition, your numbers sound great, I don't know -first year, it doesn't matter. It is a goal, and maybe °~''~ next year it will be even better. So, that is the way I am looking at this. I do support it." Commissioner Krebs, "I agree with some of what you say Commissioner, but if we are lucky, and I think we will be, this Event may cost us absolutely nothing." Deputy Mayor Gilmore noted, "I can support this, but would ask the Police Chief to go back, since his is thirty-six percent (36%) of this Budget, to go back and see if there are alternative ways of providing what you want." Further discussion. ~~I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT SPONSORSHIP DOLLARS WILL BE APPLIED TO THE CITY'S BUDGET OF SIXTY FOUR HUNDRED AND SEVENTY DOLLARS ($6,470.00) FIRST, AND THAT IF WE ARE UNSUCCESSFUL IN RAISING THAT AMOUNT, THAT WE WILL LOOK THROUGH THE BUDGET PROCESS AND POST-BUDGET PROCESS TO REPLACE AN EXISTING EVENT OR EXPENDITURE TO COVER THE LOSS THAT WE SHOULD INCUR ON THIS, IF WE SHOULD IN FACT INCUR ONE."

With discussion, Attorney Garganese explained, "It recognizes that the Owner will install the six foot (6') tall decorative wrought iron or decorative fence along the boundary of Parcel 7, along Winter Springs Boulevard and that is depicted on the Final Engineering Plans that you have just approved; and of course they would have to comply with Aesthetic Review and the decorative fence requirement would become effective at such time they pull the Building Permits for this project. Paragraph 2 acknowledges -the City will acknowledge and agree that the existing golf course maintenance building which is currently located on parcel 7 which is the - condominium development property will be relocated to that parcel 8 remainder property prior to final completion of the condo project. The parcel 8 remainder property is defined in the 3rd Amended Settlement Agreement just to refresh everybody's recollection; that's the property that's way out back along the power easement -there are currently maintenance buildings on that property. They would move the maintenance building that is right next to the tennis courts to the parcel 8 remainder property.

And -paragraph 4 recognizes that there is an emergency ingress and egress easement „~,~ that's required, that was depicted on the plans; and it incorporates the legal description as Exhibit `A' to the 4`I' Amendment, again that was depicted on the Plans. So, I would ask E that if the Commission is ready to approve the Development Agreement, that the !~ Commission also approve the 4`I' Amendment to Settlement Agreement in conjunction ' with that."

CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING -SEPTEMBER 8, 2008 PAGE 9 OF 27 Mr. Lacy then explained, "None of our events are actually going to be on Tuskawilla [Road] so, it would be possible to leave Tuskawilla [Road] open; we'd just have to pay close attention to the pedestrian traffic that might be crossing Tuskawilla [Road] to get over to the stage and the music events. And, we're very sensitive about the grass and the quality of the shrubbery that is going to be down the center of Blumberg Boulevard, and we've gone to great pains to try to find an aesthetically pleasing way to address that concern." Continuing, Mr. Lacey explained, "So, we've allocated quite a bit of manpower to patrol that area. I think we're going to place the tents in a way that discourages people from going back in to the nice shrubbery and we're going to have people there from Police Officers to Police Explorers to other volunteers, taking special care to make sure that the pedestrian traffic is first of all, diverted away from that." Discussion followed on parking, volunteers, Police assistance, and deposits. Commissioner Brown asked Manager McLemore, "Have you met with Event Planner - who wanted to work with the City, whose information I have sent you?" Manager McLemore said, "I have not heard back from that person yet." Commissioner Brown added, "She may be here tonight. I think she is going to introduce herself during Public Input. This might be great opportunity to partner with her and see what she might be able to bring to the table over the next month." With further comments, Manager McLemore noted, "I'll be happy to talk with her if you will just give me that discretion and this is not that issue of finding that person. I can have a scope of services for her or anyone else, just for this event, but it will be different from the RFP (Request For Proposal) we're going to put out." Discussion. Mr. Lacey stated, "We are asking for a Waiver of the fees that are on this that are six thousand four hundred and seventy dollars ($6,470.00) and the refundable deposit and per your suggestion Mayor, any additional funds that come in through Brighthouse, we would apply that to this dollar first. If it came in excess of that, we would take it, but if we got another six thousand dollars, we would apply that to this and compensate the City for that."

Commissioner Krebs noted, "... We might..." Commissioner McGinnis continued, "...In place of this." Continuing, Commissioner McGinnis noted, "Now we are going to talk about another Event, so I would suggest to the Commission that when we sit down, we might substitute this for another Event. But, I agree, it is the visibility, the name recognition, your numbers sound great, I don't know -first year, it doesn't matter. It is a goal, and maybe next year it will be even better. So, that is the way I am looking at this. I do support it." Commissioner Krebs, "I agree with some of what you say Commissioner, but if we are lucky, and I think we will be, this Event may cost us absolutely nothing." Deputy Mayor Gilmore noted, "I can support this, but would ask the Police Chief to go back, since his is thirty-six percent (36%) of this Budget, to go back and see if there are alternative ways of providing what you want." Further discussion. "I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT SPONSORSHIP DOLLARS WILL BE APPLIED TO THE CITY'S BUDGET OF SIXTY FOUR HUNDRED AND SEVENTY DOLLARS ($6,470.00) FIRST, AND THAT IF WE ARE UNSUCCESSFUL IN RAISING THAT AMOUNT, THAT WE WILL LOOK THROUGH THE BUDGET PROCESS AND POST-BUDGET PROCESS TO REPLACE AN EXISTING EVENT OR EXPENDITURE TO COVER THE LOSS THAT WE SHOULD INCUR ON THIS, IF WE SHOULD IN FACT INCUR ONE."

Paragraph 2 acknowledges -the City will acknowledge and agree that the existing golf course maintenance building which is currently located on parcel 7 which is the - condominium development property will be relocated to that parcel 8 remainder property prior to final completion of the condo project. The parcel 8 remainder property is defined in the 3`a Amended Settlement Agreement just to refresh everybody's recollection; that's the property that's way out back along the power easement -there are currently maintenance buildings on that property. They would move the maintenance building that is right next to the tennis courts to the parcel 8 remainder property.

That will be excavated, and that soil will be brought to the condominium property site and this requires that those excavation areas on the 4~' and 10~ fairway, once permitted bey the City and other government agencies, will be incorporated as water features on the 4 and 10 fairways, so they're not going to just be a borrow pit. There will be water features. And -paragraph 4 recognizes that there is an emergency ingress and egress easement that's required, that was depicted on the plans; and it incorporates the legal description as Exhibit `A' to the 4~` Amendment, again that was depicted on the Plans. So, I would ask that if the Commission is ready to approve the Development Agreement, that the Commission also approve the 4~' Amendment to Settlement Agreement in conjunction with that." Mr. Tom Corkery, 759 Bear Creek Circle, Winter Springs, Florida: commented on this project. With discussion, Mayor Bush asked about the water feature and inquired, "About the water feature along Northern Way, is that in here?"
