Deputy Mayor Brown closed the "Public Input" portion of the Agenda Item. Commissioner Bonner inquired about forthcoming reviews and what will come back before the City Commission. Mr. Stevenson remarked, "Normally, that would come back to you as a package. We would have Final Engineering which would be a Regular Agenda Item; Aesthetic Review which would be a Public Hearing; and a Development Agreement which would be another Regular Agenda Item, at this point in time." With further comments, Commissioner Bonner asked if any remaining aspects of this project would go before the Planning and Zoning Board/Local Planning Agency. Mr. Stevenson explained, "I believe at this point, since this is in the Town Center, it would be before the Commission." Commissioner Hovey asked about the Traffic Study. Mr. Stevenson responded, "They are working on the Traffic Study now. It would be part of the Final Engineering submittal." Attorney Garganese asked Mr. Stevenson when the Development Agreement will be presented to the City Commission. Mr. Stevenson stated, "I would imagine that might come before — we're shooting for the 26`h, if we're finished, but I would imagine it would come before the Final Engineering." Continuing, Attorney Garganese noted, "I just wanted to make sure we were still on target for bringing the Development Agreement to the Commission next, to address all of the issues that have been raised to date, because this Agenda Item cannot be considered without considering the context of all the previous Meetings and those other issues that the Commission brought up that need to be addressed in the Development Agreement in support of this Application for a Special Exception." Commissioner Hovey inquired, "Those things in the Development Agreement, will those include the questions that we have asked the Applicant before?" Mr. Stevenson responded, "It may be part of their Traffic Study but it would not be included as an item to be bound up in a Development Agreement as I understand it." Manager Smith said to Mr. Stevenson, "I don't see any reason why we couldn't have that information available next time we consider that." Mr. Stevenson said, "That's true." With further comments on the "Neighborhood School" representation and traffic issues, Mr. Stevenson pointed out, "I know the amount of drop-off traffic if you will, is going to be part of the Traffic Study. What I will talk with them about is very succinctly getting those numbers out before you, so you don't have to go through the study to pick all those numbers out." CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - JULY 12, 2010 PAGE 12 OF 16 Attorney Garganese then explained, "This Special Exception is related to the building size only and this Approval is like the previous Approvals, is subject to a Development Agreement being negotiated and agreed to by the parties. So, if the Commission Approves this Special Exception tonight, the Commission still needs to approve the Development Agreement in order for this Approval to be effective. The same type of decision was made for the Civic Site designation. In addition, there was a Conceptual Approval granted by the Commission with the full understanding that all of this is going to be subject to a Development Agreement that still needs to be negotiated and agreed to by the Commission." Further, Attorney Garganese noted, "This Approval has to be in context with all the other previous discussions that the Commission has had with the Applicant, and all of that is part of this Record for this specific item."
