II. PUBLIC INPUT
Mr. Gene Lein, 1173 Winged Foot Circle, Winter Springs, Florida: spoke on the matter
of Board Members serving on two (2) City boards; and the regulations regarding sign
violations.
Commissioner Martinez said, "I'd like to state for the record that I have been one that has
been pursuing this sign business for a long time and it is not only a Homeowner
Associations' signs out there, there are also political signs on the right-of-way all over the
City in Winter Springs and I have complained many times about them, including right
down - the next door from here - City Hall including right smack out on the edge of the
curb - by the curb. And I think that the law should apply equally to everyone and if signs
are going to be removed, they are to be removed for all, and not just for one."
Mr. Greg Roero, 602 Silvercreek Drive, Winter Springs, Florida: asked about the trees
on Hayes road, and inquired if there would be more. Manager McLemore spoke of what
had been done.
Commissioner Martinez stated, "Some of the folks are concerned about, not only the
trees there, but the extension of the sidewalk - they say the sidewalk was to reach a
certain point and then it stopped, and they are trying to find out if you're going to extend
the sidewalk beyond the point that which has ended presently?"
Manager McLemore replied, "Not in this year's budget. It's something we can look at
next year."
Mr. Paul Leckinger, 1304 Winter Springs Boulevard, Winter Springs, Florida: asked
why he was not receiving Commission Meeting Agenda packets, now that he has
qualified for the upcoming election. Discussion.
Deputy Mayor Gennell stated, "If someone will look back in the minutes, that it was
determined to be policy that we're not going to furnish anything more than the public got,
and that is all available out in the lobby." Deputy Mayor Gennell then stated, now if
somebody - we can defer this until the next meeting and they can look up in the
minutes."

Mayor Partyka stated, "From my position, if I have to have several extra copies made for
me, to use as I wish - I mean that is just better for good government."
Deputy Mayor Gennell added, "I will say for the record, that I did not receive packets
prior to going into office - when I ran. Actually, I didn't run the first time, I was
unopposed so for nine or ten or twelve weeks I was a candidate elect and did not receive
the packets even when I asked for them, so - and at that time they were not available out
in the lobby either. When I got on this Commission I made it my business to make sure
that every piece of infonnation in our agendas is at least available to the public out in the
lobby, the same as it is to us. Thank you."
Mayor Partyka stated, "Mr. Leckinger, we'll handle this."
Mr. Leckinger also asked, "Why that the monies from the beautification project, when
they are put in a trust fund or the escrow accounts, why they're non-interest bearing
accounts?" Manager McLemore and Finance Director Louise Frangoul addressed these
concerns. Mr. Leckinger also inquired about the City Manager's severance package, in
relation to Section 5.02. of the Charter.
City Attorney Anthony Garganese stated, "I will look into it."
Ms. Nancy Dzamba, 305 Twelve Oaks Drive, Winter Springs, Florida: spoke about the
nature trail issue; and stated that as a current member of the Homeowner's Association,
"There is no formal position, from the Winding Hollow Board on this issue."
Ms. Pamela Abdulaziz, 1603 Grizzley Court, Winter Springs, Florida: wanted to speak
on her water bill problem. With brief discussion by the Commission, the following
Motion was made.
"I'LL MOVE TO ADVANCE IT ON THE AGENDA, AT THE END OF THE
PUBLIC INPUT." MOTION BY DEPUTY MAYOR GENNELL. SECONDED.

Deputy Mayor Gennell stated, "I would be interested in knowing if any of the Central
Florida municipalities grant any kind of waiver to Homeowner Associations?" Deputy
Mayor Gennell stated, "From my standpoint, that's something I would appreciate
knowing." Deputy Mayor Gennell and Code Enforcement Manager Jimette Cook
discussed permitting procedures, and Deputy Mayor Gennell stated, "Regarding nominal
fees for the permitting of signs, if an Association has monthly meetings - in other words,
the procedure that you just described would involve a certain amount of time, so if they
did it on a regular basis each time, would it involve the same amount of time, if it was the
same sign?" Ms. Cook stated, "I can't answer that definitively. I don't know ifthere is a
provision in the Planning and Building Division to accomplish that goal, but I could find
out for you?" Deputy Mayor Gennell stated, "I would appreciate it."
Mr. James Meade, 5361 Young Pine Road, Orlando, Florida: spoke of property
involved in the reclaiming of an old borrow pit, and related Code Enforcement fines that
have been accruing. Discussion. Mr. Meade asked that this matter be brought before the
City Commission. Regarding putting this on a future Agenda, Mayor Partyka stated,
"We're going to do that."
Mayor Partyka again stated, "Let's do this - we'll have it on the next Agenda - the next
Commission Meeting's Agenda."
Attorney Garganese stated, "May I recommend that before this item gets brought to the
Commission, you ensure that it still is not under the jurisdiction of the Code Enforcement
Board, so this matter may be appropriate to go to the Code Enforcement Board for
resolution before this Commission handles it." Mayor Partyka stated, "We'll double
check the technicalities on that - and we'll notify Mr. Meade. Okay."
Ms. Terry Scarlata, 1006 Nancy Circle, Winter Springs, Florida: spoke on the Parkstone
PUD, and noted some comments for the record.
