PUBLIC HEARING AGENDA ITEM B
Page 3
FINDINGS:
The proposed future land use change from AMixed Use" , "Commercial", "Rustic
Residential", "Conservation", "Recreational" and "Public Buildings", to ATown Center
District" in the subject area is compatible with surrounding land use designations, since the
land on the south side of S.R. 434 opposite the subject land is F~UM designated
ACommercial". On the north side of Orange Ave. are areas designated in the county
enclave as "Suburban Estates" and "Conservation". The Town Center will be compatible
with these designations since the City's Central Winds Park, the Winter Springs High
School, and the single family subdivisions, Tuskawilla Trace and St. Johns Landing
provide an appropriate separation from the higher density/intensity development of the
Town Center to the south.
The comprehensive plan amendment is compatible with the other elements of the City=s
Comprehensive Plan
The comprehensive plan amendment is compatible with and furthers elements of the State
Comprehensive Plan, in Chapter 187 F.S.
The comprehensive plan amendment is compatible with and furthers elements of the East
Central Florida Comprehensive Regional Policy Plan.
The Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA) has issued its ORC Report (see
attached) and has complimented the City noting: "The effort put into the proposed Town
Center is evident, and once developed should provide the City with an attractive focal
point." Only two (2) technical issues with the proposed Town Center land use designation
were raised by DCA.

Ordinance 2000-10 to adopt the large scale comprehensive plan amendment
(LG-CP A-I-99)

Attorney Garganese read Ordinance Number 2000-10 by "Title" only. Attorney
Garganese stated, "Mayor, just one point, we just discussed the Town Center boundary.
That would have to be amended to exclude that half acre or so, of the Schrimsher
property, along the Eastern boundary."
Mayor Partyka stated, "Mr. Grimms, what do you have to do to make that correction?"
Mr. Tom Grimms, AICP, Comprehensive Planing Coordinator stated, "I would re-draw
the map."
Attorney Garganese stated, "Point of Order. I would feel more comfortable, if by
Motion, the City Commission would adopt into the record, (I don't believe you have) a
couple of documents - it was in your package; it's the 'Commercial Planning Study' that
was prepared by Gibbs Planning Group, Inc.; and the 'Town Center Master Plan' that
was prepared by Dover Kohl and Partners." Attorney Garganese added, "I would just
like the record to reflect that they've been included as part of this Ordinance, in justifying
this Ordinance." Shortly thereafter, Attorney Garganese added, "There will be some
changes to the Town Center Master Plan. The purpose of adopting it is the findings and
conclusions about the Town Center, and the need for the Town Center, and justifying the
Town Center. Keep in mind - some of the maps will change, but it's the findings and
conclusions that are important - the purposes of the record."
Mayor Partyka opened the "Public Input" portion of this Agenda Item.
Mr. Micky Grindstaff, 20 North Orange Avenue, Suite 1001, Orlando, Florida: stated,
"Just as a matter of the record, and being consistent with every comment we've ever had
on any of these Ordinances, whether it's the Comp Plan Amendment, or the Town Center
Ordinance 707, the Schrimsher Group respectfully opposes the passage of this Ordinance,
or that Town Center Ordinance, unless, and until such time as an agreement - a
companion agreement addressing the Schrimsher concerns is adopted at the same time.
And in keeping with that, as far as the record, I have and would like to submit to each of
you guys - this is the last submittal that I think will happen. I'd like to submit Volume V
of the record, the keeping of the record that we've been able to maintain. This will be
also inteIjected into the next hearing, but, Volume V is a copy of the recorded transcript
from the City Commission Workshop and Regular Meeting, dated March 27, 2000, and
the City Commission Regular Meeting, dated April 10, 2000, which should probably be -
should be referred to as April lOth and April 11th, 2000."
