CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - APRIL 23, 2412 PAGE 4 OF 21 P= 7 ;3 FISCAL IMPACT: Upon approval of the refinancing of the City's outstanding Limited General obligation Bonds, Series 2002, by BB &T, the City will realize a savings of $392,079 (10.5 %) over the remaining 20 years until final rook maturity of the BB &T note on 71112031. This equates to an annual savings (nominal) of $20,074 to the Central Winds Debt Service Fund. It should be noted that in recent years, due to declining property values and in an effort to keep the voted debt millage rate flat, it has been necessary for the General Fund to partially subsidize, via an Inter -Fund Transfer, the Central Winds General obligation Debt Service Fund. Consequently, this refinancing will ultimately serve to reduce the General Fund subsidy. Note: This refinancing brings the total accumulated savings of all bonds refinanced over the past two years to approximately $2.5 million.

Deputy Mayor Gary Bonner stated, "I just wanted to extend my compliments to Staff, Manager, and Finance Department on this terrific idea for negotiating or re-- negotiating our Bond and saving our citizens hundreds of thousands of dollars. It really shows how deep you all are digging into our debt and the opportunity to save money so well done!" City Manager Kevin L. Smith noted, "Two and half million [dollars] ($2,500,000.00) so far." Mayor Lacey said, "It is in the Agenda Item but it references the fact that we are saving money through the General Fund on this because the General Fund has been augmenting the Voted Debt Revenues coming through. I think it is worth noting that Winter Springs is completely unique in that regard and that we would be legally thoroughly entitled to raise that Voted Debt Millage every year like other cities do, and not say there is a tax increase." Commissioner Rick Brown added, "Through Kevin (Smith) and his team's efforts, we have yet have to see a reduction in service and even more successful again in lowering taxes this year, which I just think is a huge accomplishment for us to happen and I know that we are all very proud of them and their efforts."

But 7- Eleveng in their Franchise Agreement — the Franchise Agreement is specific to twenty -four (24) hours of daily operation and maintain a consistent level of expectations found company -wide on a local and national basis - if we don't get the twenty -four (24) hours, we potentially lose the 7- Eleveng. That has a substantial economic detriment to this project and to the viability of the project; also to tenants who want to locate there because of the high quality of the 7- Eleveng. So, it's of great importance to us that we get that. We have agreed to put a - block wall behind the 7-- Eleven(K or behind the shopping center that all deliveries would be to the front so there would be no noise in the evening time behind the 7- Eleveng or behind the convenience store."

Mr. Gowni responded, "Yes..." Deputy Mayor Bonner added, "...That is seven (7) days a week..." Mr. Gowni then said, "...Yes, the whole week, seven (7) days.

CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS,FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING-APRIL 23,2012 PAGE 4 OF 21 FISCAL IMPACT: Upon approval of the refinancing of the City's outstanding Limited General Obligation Bonds, Series 2002, by BB&T, the City will realize a savings of $392,079 (10.5%) over the remaining 20 years until final maturity of the BB&T note on 7/1/2031. This equates to an annual savings (nominal) of$20,074 to the Central Winds Debt Service Fund. It should be noted that in recent years, due to declining property values and in an effort to keep the voted debt millage rate flat,it has been necessary for the General Fund to partially subsidize, via an Inter-Fund Transfer,the Central Winds General Obligation Debt Service Fund.Consequently, this refinancing will ultimately serve to reduce the General Fund subsidy.

Mayor Lacey said, "It is in the Agenda Item but it references the fact that we are saving money through the General Fund on this because the General Fund has been augmenting the Voted Debt Revenues coming through. I think it is worth noting that Winter Springs is completely unique in that regard and that we would be legally thoroughly entitled to raise that Voted Debt Millage every year like other cities do, and not say there is a tax increase." Commissioner Rick Brown added, "Through Kevin (Smith) and his team's efforts, we have yet have to see a reduction in service and even more successful again in lowering taxes this year, which I just think is a huge accomplishment for us to happen and I know that we are all very proud of them and their efforts."

The potential tax revenue of the proposed project is estimated as follows: 17,128 Square Foot Shopping Plaza assessed at$1,712,800$1,712,800/1000= 1,712.8 1,712.8(2.5600)=$4,384.77 $4,384.77(less the 4% statutory discount)=$4,209.38 tax revenue City of Winter Springs taxes paid on vacant land now (data obtained from Seminole County Property Appraiser): $862.31 Total Potential Ad Valorem Tax Revenue: $5,071.69 COMMUNICATION EFFORTS: This Agenda Item has been electronically forwarded to the Mayor and City Commission, City Manager, City Attorney/Staff,and is available on the City's Website,LaserFiche,and the City's Server.Additionally, portions of this Agenda Item are typed verbatim on the respective Meeting Agenda which has also been electronically forwarded to the individuals noted above, and which is also available on the City's Website, LaserFiche,and the City's Server; has been sent to applicable City Staff,Media/Press Representatives who have requested Agendas/Agenda Item information,Homeowner's Associations/Representatives on file with the City, and all individuals who have requested such information.

CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS,FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING—APRIL 23,2012 PAGE 13 OF 21 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Commission approve the Conditional Use for Hayes Road Plaza to permit a convenience store without fuel pumps in the C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial) zoning district.This recommendation includes the condition that all deliveries to the convenience store and any other 24-hour operation in the plaza be made to the front and not the back of the building. This condition was part of the original approval in 2009. Mr. Randy Woodruff, AICP, Senior Planner, Community Development Department introduced the Agenda Item for discussion. Tape 1/Side B Continuing, Mr. Woodruff explained, "The Applicant was unable to acquire necessary funding back at that time, so the Conditional Use expired. He's since then has resubmitted an Application after gaining the financing necessary. The plan is for the same project." Mr. Brian Fields,P.E., City Engineer, Public Works Department provided an update on traffic issues. With further comments, Mr. Fields added, "At build-out of the project, there are a number of options for ingress/egress into the site. We felt like those options in total really maximized the ability for vehicles to go where they want, while minimizing impacts on Hayes Road." Mr. Fields added, "We also looked very specifically at the north bound left queue, it tends to back up here, especially in the a.m. hours. A specific analysis was done on that— we did an independent field count with our Staff and we feel comfortable that the project as proposed will not require any additional improvements for that turning movement." Mr. Woodruff spoke of the hours of operation on other area similar businesses. Mayor Lacey opened the "Public Input"portion of the Agenda Item. Mr. Joe Inns, 647 Sailfish Road, Winter Springs, Florida: spoke in opposition to this proposed convenience store with the hours being proposed; noted his concern with traffic and said that driving by the Sunoco is very tight; thought that if one business forced out another, there could be a negative impact to the City; and was also concerned with additional noise in his subdivision. Ms. Gosia Gauza, 617 Pearl Road, Winter Springs, Florida: mentioned her concern with this store especially if alcohol is sold; did not feel another twenty-four (24) hour convenience store was needed; and felt that her neighborhood already has other noisy businesses nearby and another is not needed. Mr. Bruce Myrick, Post Office Box 616278, Orlando, Florida:: mentioned he represents the Developer Kamil Gowney and said this business would improve tax revenues; mentioned the proposed businesses that will be part of this project. Continuing, Mr. Myrick noted, "I do have a letter from 7-Eleven®here—I have a copy of it I can give to each of you. But 7-Eleven® in their Franchise Agreement — the Franchise Agreement is specific to twenty-four (24) hours of daily operation and maintain a consistent level of expectations found company-wide on a local and national basis - if we don't get the twenty-four (24) hours, we potentially lose the 7-Eleven®. That has a substantial economic detriment to this project and to the viability of the project; also to tenants who want to locate there because of the high quality of the 7-Eleven®. So, it's of great importance to us that we get that. We have agreed to put a-block wall behind the 7-Eleven®or behind the shopping center that all deliveries would be to the front so there would be no noise in the evening time behind the 7-Eleven® or behind the convenience store." CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS,FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING-APRIL 23,2012 PAGE 14 OF 21 Commissioner Krebs inquired of Mr. Myrick, "What does 7-Eleven® stand for?" Mr. Myrick responded, "It stands for 7[:00] in the morning until 11[:00] at night, but you'll find most of the arrangements - franchise arrangements are made on a twenty-four(24)hour basis." Ms. Dianne Kessluk, 202 Holiday Lane, Winter Springs, Florida: asked about the access from the Plaza onto Hayes Road. Mr. Fields stated,"Hayes Road will be right or left, it's a full access driveway onto Hayes Road. Further brief comments followed. Mayor Lacey closed the "Public Input"portion of the Agenda Item. Mr. Kamil Gowni, 1348 Valley Pine Circle, Apopka, Florida: spoke of this proposed 7-Eleven'I and stated that, "Between two o'clock and six o'clock,no beer at night." Mr. Gowni further spoke of deliveries, cleanliness of 7- Eleven®stores,no noise,and fresh coffee all night. Deputy Mayor Bonner said to Mr. Gowni, "Did I understand correctly that the 7-Eleven®will suspend the sale of alcohol from 2[:00] in the morning until 6[:00] in the morning?" Mr. Gowni responded, "Yes..." Deputy Mayor Bonner added, "...That is seven (7) days a week..." Mr. Gowni then said, "...Yes, the whole week, seven (7) days. Yes,matter of fact,the Sunday is shut down from 10[:00] at night until 6[:00] in the morning." Discussion followed with Chief of Police Kevin Brunelle about a twenty-four(24) hour facility and could that be a resource for his Staff for that part of town, and if he anticipated any problems or increase of calls. Chief Brunelle then was asked if this business was open and if there might be any impact to his Department serving the community during evening hours. Chief Brunelle did not think there would be any major issues. With further comments, Chief Brunelle stated,"I don't think we'll see a big, major impact." Discussion followed on the cross access and the tight fit related to the Sunoco station. Commissioner Resnick asked about signage and would the color scheme match City standards. Mr. Randy Stevenson, ASLA, AICP, Director, Community Development Department remarked, "We haven't looked at the sign proposals yet Commissioners, but they will go through Aesthetic Review and they will be required to match the architecture and the size."
