OF WINTER SPRINGS OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK Commissioner Steve Wolfram Chairman, CALNO Altamonte Springs City Commission 225 Newburyport Avenue Altamonte Springs, FL 32701 -3697 Re: Seminole County Expressway Authority (SCEA) Municipal Appointment - Sanford City Commissioner Patty Mahany Dear Commissioner Wolfram: It is our understanding that the Council of Local Governments in Seminole County (CALNO), at their January 5, 2011 Meeting, recommended Sanford City Commissioner Patty Mahany to succeed retiring Sanford City Commissioner Art Woodruff as a Municipal Representative on the SCEA Board. Said municipal term would be for two years (January 2011 -January 2013). Historically, CALNO has served as a forum for recommending municipal representatives to serve as Authority members. Each of the seven (7) cities within Seminole County will need to endorse CALNO's recommendation by placing the matter before their respective City Commission for official action, and advising Seminole County of the action taken. Because of the requirements of Chapter 348, Florida Statutes, CALNO's recommendation needs to be affirmed by a majority of the municipalities and approved by the Seminole County Board of County Commissioners (BCC). We anticipate placing this matter on the February 8, 2011 BCC agenda. In order to meet BCC agenda submittal requirements, we respectfully request receipt of CALNO's recommendation in writing and each City's letter endorsing CALNO's recommendation by February 2, 2011. By copy of this letter, we are advising each City Manager of this schedule. We look forward to receiving CALNO's recommendation and the municipal endorsements. Thereafter, we plan on forwarding same to the County Commission for action at their February 8, 2011 meeting. Sincerely, 1, 17 Je cCollum, P.E.
