Re: 2013 Trustee Membership
Dear Cory:
As you know, last evening the Winter Springs City Commission agreed to renew its annual chamber
trustee membership for 2013. As such, enclosed please find the City's check made payable to the
Chamber in the amount of $5,000 for the 2013 trustee membership fee which will allow the City to
enjoy all of the benefits and privileges of being a trustee.
In addition, as has been customary during the City's membership with the Chamber, the City's
membership fee is being paid under the condition that the Chamber shall not take any formal or
informal position regarding City of Winter Springs' elections including, but not limited to, taking any
position to promote, support, endorse, oppose, or criticize, either verbally or in writing, any candidate
running for the Winter Springs' City Commission or any Winter Springs' referendum issue. Furthermore,
the Chamber agrees that the membership fee paid by the City shall not be used for any election
advocacy including, but not limited to, campaign contributions, election advertisements, and donations
to political action committees. I presume that these conditions are agreeable to the Chamber.
However, if for some reason the Chamber can no longer abide by these conditions, please return the
City's check to my attention because the City will not be allowed to participate as Chamber trustee.
Lastly, the City Commission modified the City's seal last year to include the state and federal motto, "In
God We Trust." I noticed that the Chamber's website is depicting the City's old seal. Please up -date the
Chamber's website and other promotional materials to include the City's new seal. If you need an
electronic copy of the City's seal, please contact my assistant Danielle and the City will be happy to
provide you with an electronic copy.
The City looks forward to another year as trustee of the Oviedo- Winter Springs Regional Chamber of
Commerce.
