Commissioner McGinnis said, "I agree," Manager McLemore added, "What goes on that "Directives list is something that either by Consensus of this group- or by a 'Vote' formally. You say, this is important enough that it's an action of this 'Body'. not an action of this 'Individual'." Manager McLemore added, "Now a lot of times, the things that you talk about, are things we're already authorized to do anyhow, so we would go ahead and address those as a matter of course." Then, Manager McLemore noted, "Act as a collective 'Body' on these things and at least let's get the "Directive' very clear and understood." With further discussion, Manager McLemore said, "What I'm asking is that the Mayor, or someone repeat or acknowledge it on Record that the Commission by Consensus is requesting the Staff to do thus and so; and, put it in the Record that way." Mayor Bush noted, "One Commissioner should not direct Staff without the entire Commission giving Staff the okay on this, and I will try to do that - and maybe then just state it a little more directly, into the Record after I see the nodding of the heads." Mayor Bush added, "1 can take care of that and of course if ~ a Commissioner wants to makc a Motion, obviously one can do that." Discussion. Then, Mayor Bush remarked, "What I will try to do in the future, is even on those issues like Commissioner Krebs is mentioning, when one Commissioner makes a statement such as that, 1 will then stop it and say, 'Do all the Commissioners agree with what Commissioner Krebs in this case might be asking for', and then we will get that into the Record." Commissioner Krebs said, "Okay." Mayor Bush then said, "Then we will have to rely on Staffto say, wait a minute, we don't know exactly what you are saying." In summary, Mayor Bush said, "My interpretation of our discussion that we just had is that 1 will make sure that when one Commissioner makes a comment about bringing something back that we get Consensus from the Commission - all Commissioners - at least the majority that that is the desire of the entire Commission and then make sure it gets recorded in the Minutes so that it can be referred to by Staff. And then the other issue is when we are developing more complex issues of where we might have multiple items, that we take our time and go through them one by one in terms of making sure we have Consensus and - Staff knows what the Commission wants back," CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING APRIL 25, 2005 PAGE 17 OF 22 Commissioner Krebs said, "If the Clerk is having trouble understanding everything that we want that she should also question US." Mayor Bush "Yes, definitely..." Commissioner Krebs said, "...For a summary or more explanation if she needs it." Manager McLemore added, "And I think she will if you make it known that - you're not offended by that." Commissioner Krebs added, "I'm not offended and I want her to." Commissioner McGinnis said, "I do too. T agree." Mayor Bush added, "No apologies- just say, 'I don't Wlderstand this - it needs to be more clear" to get it into the Record." Deputy Mayor Blake added, "That is right." Mayor Bush asked, "Do we have Consensus on that Commissioners?" Commissioner McGinnis, said, "Yes, we do." Commissioner Krebs noted, "Ves."

McLemore Manager McLemore said, "You are aware that I had sent a letter to the school [Winter Springs High School] regarding student parking in the 'Town Center' and that it was becoming an issue. [Chief of Police] Dan Kerr and T did go and meet with the Principal. After that meeting, based on what we understood was they're going to have even more students next year or in another two (2) years. Maybe then, the level will start dropping off of students - they are maxed out on the number of parking units." Then, Manager McLemore stated, "One thing we understand is, we are going to have to pass an Ordinance --limiting the amount of parking time in the Town Center, to deal with this issue." Manager McLcmore suggested, "We have ~ one hundred Slxty (160) spaces in Central Winds Park which is along the new paved area behind the school- north ofthc 'Trail'. It's not used in the morning, nor early into the afternoon; so what r would propose is we offer those spaces on the same basis that they would be made available for a sticker, however, that the revenue would come to the City for that space; which would mean somewhere between twelve - fifteen thousand dollars ($12,000.00 - $15,000,00) based on the pricing of the sticker." Manager McLemore added, "I think that we should charge for the use of our space." Discussion. Deputy Mayor Blake noted, "T absolutely agree. The first expenditure we should make with the revenues should be to develop an easier walking access point for the students. We should work this out with the school, from that lat." Manager McLemore remarked, "We will have that discussion with the school also." Deputy Mayor Blake noted, "Okay."
