F 1 CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - JANUARY 23, 2012 PAGE 14 OF 23 Related to the Scottish Highland Games, Commissioner Brown remarked, "Thank you Chris (Caldwell). Outstanding job!" Commissioner Brown added, "Chief (Brunelle), 30,000 people in two (2) days. Not an c .c.% incident that bubbled up — that made it to our awareness. And I have got to say, every one of your Officers I saw out there, had a big smile on their face and they were interacting with the crowd and it was just a beautiful thing. e — So, very, very nice. Thank you so much!" Next, Commissioner Brown mentioned that a Public Records Request had been made for his Expense Reports and '; addressed the Public Records Request. Commissioner Brown added that he rarely submits for reimbursements, and on the couple of occasions that he did, if anyone would like to see those few documents, they could certainly ask him or the City Clerk. Lawitmi Commissioner Brown then addressed issues related to the school situations and how the City has no control of the schools or their finances and that there is a lot of misinformation out in the public. Commissioner Brown mentioned how schools are a big part of the community and commented on recent concerns about some area schools. Continuing, Commissioner Brown remarked, "If any of you are Keeth (Elementary School) parents or know Keeth parents, I think there are questions you should be asking — the first one is that Keeth is on the list right now because of a small population. A small population that doesn't meet their minimum requirements. Back in August, I was asked to go to a PTA (Parent- Teachers Association) meeting at Lawton Elementary School in Oviedo which consisted of a large number of parents who have children who should be attending Keeth and actually live in Winter Springs, in the Keeth zone, that are being bused out of Winter Springs into Lawton Elementary to satisfy some social, economic, and academic reasons - balancing test scores, balancing free lunch contributions and those kind of things. And, so far the School Board, actually Dede Schaffner has said that they would not be considering bringing those children back into Winter Springs and making the population of Keeth Elementary whole before they executed their decision. So, if I was a parent at Keeth (Elementary School), I would certainly be asking those questions and lining up those telephones at the School Board. The second one is that during the commentary on Thursday, the Superintendent (Bill) Vogel made the comment that he hoped that any suspension of operations would be a short term experience for the school, but yet one of the criteria that they had put in place was the amount of money they anticipated having to spend on school upgrades, modifications, and maintenance over the next ten (10) years." Commissioner Brown continued with his concern about the criteria and spoke on the high ratings associated with Keeth Elementary School, and suggested that Tuscawilla residents make some telephone calls. Commissioner Hovey suggested telephone calls to the Seminole County Public Schools School Board and to their Tallahassee Legislators and noted, "They need to hear from everyone!" Discussion followed on new rooftops coming in the area of Keeth Elementary School; that Seminole County Public Schools needs to consider more information and due diligence; moving targets and changes; and that the criteria Seminole County Public Schools referred to was arbitrary and that the parents posed some good questions to the School Board. Commissioner Brown also mentioned, "At some point, we will have to hear from the Chief and our Police force as to what they think is going to happen with that vacant property as far as crime and vandalism and things we are going to have to be aware about. And what happens to that building? Are they going to shut the utilities off? Are we going to have mold issues? Is it going to have to end up being gutted at some point, if they keep it closed for a long period of time ?" Further discussion followed on the proposed One Cent Sales Tax Vote and new homes in various stages of being built coming into the City.

Mr. Finley then asked about the land on which the school was built. Further comments followed. Commissioner Hovey mentioned a petition drive that Geneva Elementary School had started. Mayor Lacey noted that "I really hope that this does not degrade into a community versus community versus community fight to figure out who is going to close the other school. I think there are better approaches that hopefully the enlightened School Board will come to a better solution than that." Commissioner Krebs asked Mr. Finley if he was working in the Oak Forest community to try to assist this effort. Mr. Finley mentioned some of his efforts and how they are trying to create a presence. Commissioner Resnick mentioned attending tomorrow night's School Board meeting, that people should also write to their Legislators about their concerns; and Pension issues.

Mayor Lacy closed "Public Input ". Commissioner Brown mentioned that furlough days may be able to solve some of the School Board's financial issues and should possibly be investigated.

In addition, we made amendments regarding commercial activities that can occur within the •••" park." Attorney Garganese added, "Nothing in this Ordinance aggregates or modifies the Police Departments ability to issue trespassing warnings for certain matters that may occur in the park.

Commissioner Krebs asked about radio controlled devices including radio controlled airplanes and helicopters. Mr. Caldwell noted, "It's not that they can't do that. What we're going to do is we're going to have specific areas designated for that activity and we will permit our current club members of the Central Winds Flyer's Club to do that at specific times because there are multiple uses at the park for other activities. So, they are going to be allowed to engage in those types of activities, at all of our parks. We want people to be able to use our parks. And we want them to use them for the intended purposes in an organized and safe manner." Commissioner Krebs then asked about flying kites. Mr. Caldwell added, "All those types of unique recreational activities would fall under that, provided that it's a good mix for the time and the location that that person wants to come out and enjoy flying a kite.

Outstanding job!" Commissioner Brown added, "Chief (Brunelle), 30,000 people in two (2) days. Not an incident that bubbled up — that made it to our awareness. And I have got to say, every one of your Officers I saw out there, had a big smile on their face and they were interacting with the crowd and it was just a beautiful thing. So, very, very nice. Thank you so much!" Next, Commissioner Brown mentioned that a Public Records Request had been made for his Expense Reports and addressed the Public Records Request. Commissioner Brown added that he rarely submits for reimbursements, and on the couple of occasions that he did, if anyone would like to see those few documents, they could certainly ask him or the City Clerk. Commissioner Brown then addressed issues related to the school situations and how the City has no control of the schools or their finances and that there is a lot of misinformation out in the public. Commissioner Brown mentioned how schools are a big part of the community and commented on recent concerns about some area schools. Continuing, Commissioner Brown remarked, "If any of you are Keeth (Elementary School) parents or know Keeth parents, I think there are questions you should be asking — the first one is that Keeth is on the list right now because of a small population. A small population that doesn't meet their minimum requirements. Back in August, I was asked to go to a PTA (Parent- Teachers Association) meeting at Lawton Elementary School in Oviedo which consisted of a large number of parents who have children who should be attending Keeth and actually live in Winter Springs, in the Keeth zone, that are being bused out of Winter Springs into Lawton Elementary to satisfy some social, economic, and academic reasons - balancing test scores, balancing free lunch contributions and those kind of things. And, so far the School Board, actually Dede Schaffner has said that they would not be considering bringing those children back into Winter Springs and making the population of Keeth Elementary whole before they executed their decision. So, if I was a parent at Keeth (Elementary School), I would certainly be asking those questions and lining up those telephones at the School Board. The second one is that during the commentary on Thursday, the Superintendent (Bill) Vogel made the comment that he hoped that any suspension of operations would be a short term experience for the school, but yet one of the criteria that they had put in place was the amount of money they anticipated having to spend on school upgrades, modifications, and maintenance over the next ten (10) years." Commissioner Brown continued with his concern about the criteria and spoke on the high ratings associated with Keeth Elementary School, and suggested that Tuscawilla residents make some telephone calls. Commissioner Hovey suggested telephone calls to the Seminole County Public Schools School Board and to their Tallahassee Legislators and noted, "They need to hear from everyone!" Discussion followed on new rooftops coming in the area of Keeth Elementary School; that Seminole County Public Schools needs to consider more information and due diligence; moving targets and changes; and that the criteria Seminole County Public Schools referred to was arbitrary and that the parents posed some good questions to the School Board. Commissioner Brown also mentioned, "At some point, we will have to hear from the Chief and our Police force as to what they think is going to happen with that vacant property as far as crime and vandalism and things we are going to have to be aware about. And what happens to that building? Are they going to shut the utilities off? Are we going to have mold issues? Is it going to have to end up being gutted at some point, if they keep it closed for a long period of time ?" Further discussion followed on the proposed One Cent Sales Tax Vote and new homes in various stages of being built coming into the City. CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING — JANUARY 23, 2012 PAGE 15 OF 23 Tape 1 /Side B Deputy Mayor Bonner thanked the PTA (Parent- Teachers Association) for their hospitality at last week's meeting and noted that he appreciated Commissioner Brown's comments related to bussing concerns.

Mr. Finley then asked about the land on which the school was built. Further comments followed. Commissioner Hovey mentioned a petition drive that Geneva Elementary School had started. Mayor Lacey noted that "I really hope that this does not degrade into a community versus community versus community fight to figure out who is going to close the other school. I think there are better approaches that hopefully the enlightened School Board will come to a better solution than that." Commissioner Krebs asked Mr. Finley if he was working in the Oak Forest community to try to assist this effort. Mr. Finley mentioned some of his efforts and how they are trying to create a presence. Commissioner Resnick mentioned attending tomorrow night's School Board meeting, that people should also write to their Legislators about their concerns; and Pension issues. Commissioner Hovey suggested that if anyone needed help in finding out who their Legislators were, to contact either the President of the Seminole County PTA (Parent- Teachers Association) or Commissioner Hovey. Mayor Lacy closed "Public Input". Commissioner Brown mentioned that furlough days may be able to solve some of the School Board's financial issues and should possibly be investigated. Further comments. CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - JANUARY 23, 2012 PAGE 16 OF 23 Deputy Mayor Bonner suggested that both the Seminole County Public Schools School Board meeting scheduled for tomorrow, January 24, 2012 and the PTA (Parent- Teachers Association) sponsored meeting at Oviedo High School scheduled for Thursday, January 26, 2012 be posted.

CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - JANUARY 23, 2012 PAGE 18 OF 23 RECOMMENDATION: The City Attorney, City Manager, Police Department, and Parks and Recreation Department recommend that the City Commission adopt Ordinance 2012 -02 on Second and Final Reading. Attorney Garganese read Ordinance 2012 -02 by "Title" only and stated, "After First Reading, we went ahead and made several amendments to the draft Ordinance that the City Commission requested. Some of the wordsmithing; the more important amendments that we made were adding a new section regarding the suspension of park privileges. In addition, we made amendments regarding commercial activities that can occur within the park." Attorney Garganese added, "Nothing in this Ordinance aggregates or modifies the Police Departments ability to issue trespassing warnings for certain matters that may occur in the park. This Ordinance would dovetail I think with respect to applying the criminal trespass laws as well." It was also mentioned that the "Possess clause relative to tobacco use" was removed; and Manager Smith mentioned that "We fully intend to bring this forward in front of your Parks and Rec[reation] Advisory Board for their vetting, and will bring back any changes that need to be addressed in the future." Commissioner Krebs asked about radio controlled devices including radio controlled airplanes and helicopters. Mr. Caldwell noted, "It's not that they can't do that. What we're going to do is we're going to have specific areas designated for that activity and we will permit our current club members of the Central Winds Flyer's Club to do that at specific times because there are multiple uses at the park for other activities. So, they are going to be allowed to engage in those types of activities, at all of our parks. We want people to be able to use our parks. And we want them to use them for the intended purposes in an organized and safe manner." Commissioner Krebs then asked about flying kites. Mr. Caldwell added, "All those types of unique recreational activities would fall under that, provided that it's a good mix for the time and the location that that person wants to come out and enjoy flying a kite. We absolutely want to give them an opportunity to do that." Continuing, Commissioner Krebs inquired, "How will people know the rules ?" Mr. Caldwell remarked, "The rules will be posted and most of the groups that come out there have been given the guidelines." Related to general users, Mr. Caldwell noted there are Park Rangers out and about in the parks most of the week. Commissioner Krebs then asked, "Is it going to be posted? Mr. Caldwell stated, "Yes." Commissioner Krebs suggested using some kind of kiosk to post information and rules. Manager Smith commented, "That's a great idea Chris (Caldwell). Mr. Caldwell responded also and said, "Yes." Furthermore, Commissioner Krebs said, "Then I would ask that — now you have teeth, that you at least have a period of time..." Manager Smith stated, "...Commissioner, absolutely..." Commissioner Krebs continued, "...To give that period of time." Discussion continued on education and enforcement. Commissioner Krebs added, "If you are receptive to some type of pamphlet..." Manager Smith remarked, "...Absolutely..." Commissioner Krebs continued, "...Something like what is expected of you and what you expect from us." Manager Smith added, "Consider it done." Additionally, Deputy Mayor Bonner suggested, "I would add to that, that if we are going to go through the signage exercise — it is a great opportunity to add `QR' code and the Parks and Rec[reation Department] URL out there." Manager Smith said to Deputy Mayor Bonner, "We're all over it." CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - JANUARY 23, 2012 PAGE 19 OF 23 Deputy Mayor Bonner then complimented the Finance Department and said, "The 'OR' code payment system is just awesome! It is easy, simple to use. I get lots of compliments on that."

Mayor Lacey concluded, "Thank you again!" Commissioner Brown said to Chief Brunelle, "I have gotten more compliments on Captain Deisler from some very typically just generally irate Winter Springs citizens that we hear from a lot — just the compliments and I think the way that he is approaching people and the way that he is resolving some of these issues before they bubble up; I think it is a real tribute to kind of job that Chris (Deisler) has always done for us, but especially in this role - he has just been outstanding, and the people seem to respect him, they respect his opinion, he is knowledgeable, he educates and to get phone calls specifically that praise somebody in that very, very tough role, I think is a testament to the job he is doing; so thank you and thank him for it."
