SYNOPSIS: The purpose of this agenda item is to present a recommendation from the Districting Commission to the City Commission for an adjustment of the commission district boundaries, as required by Section 4.02 of the City Charter. An evaluation and an adjustment, if necessary, are required by the City Charter every three (3) years. The Districting Commission has reviewed staff s proposal for district boundary adjustments and is forwarding a recommendation of approval of those adjustments to the City Commission. CONSIDERATIONS: APPLICABLE LAW AND PUBLIC POLICY: City of Winter Springs Charter Article 4, Sec. 4 -02. Commission districts; adjustment of districts. Section 4.02. - Commission districts; adjustment of districts. (a) Number of districts. The city commission of the City of Winter Springs, Florida, shall by separate ordinance divide the city into five (5) geographical commission districts. (b) Districting commission. By the first day of February, 1991, the first day of February, 1992, and every three (3) years thereafter, the city commission shall appoint seven (7) city electors determined from the registration of the last regular election, one (1) to be appointed by each commissioner from their respective district, and two (2) appointed Public Hearings 401 PAGE 1 OF 12 - June 13, 2016 by the mayor from the city at large, who shall comprise the districting commission. Electors chosen shall not be employed by the city in any other capacity. The initial districting commission, creating and establishing the first commission districts, shall be appointed by each commissioner and the mayor from the city at large. (c) Report; specifications. The districting commission shall file with the official designated by the city commission a report containing a recommended plan for establishment or adjustment of the commission district boundaries. The initial districting commission, creating and establishing the first commission districts, shall file such report within ninety (90) days of appointment. Thereafter, such reports shall be filed within one hundred twenty (120) days of appointment to the districting commission. The commission district boundaries shall comply with the following specifications: (1) Each district shall be formed of compact, contiguous territory, and its boundary lines shall follow the center lines of streets insofar as practical or possible, or other boundaries available. (2) The districts shall be based upon the principle of equal and effective representation as required by the United States Constitution and as represented in the mathematical preciseness reached in the legislative apportionment of the state. (3) The report shall include a map and description of the districts recommended and shall be drafted as a proposed ordinance. Once filed with the designated official, the report shall be treated as an ordinance introduced by a commissioner. (d) Support. It shall be the responsibility of the city manager to provide staff assistance and technical data to the districting commission. (e) Procedure. The procedure for the city commission's consideration of the report shall be the same as for other ordinances, provided that if a summary of the ordinances is published pursuant to this Charter and general law, it must include both the map and a description of the recommended districts. (f) Failure to enact ordinance. The city commission shall adopt the redistricting ordinance at least one hundred twenty (120) days before the next city election. If the city commission fails to either accept or reject the redistricting ordinance, the report of the districting commission shall go into effect and have the same effect of an ordinance. The proposed redistricting ordinance may not be rejected for any reason except for failure to comply with the specifications listed in section 4.02(c) of this Charter or failure to comply with other local, state or federal law. (g) Effect of enactment. The new commission districts and boundaries as of the date of enactment shall supersede previous commission districts and boundaries for all purposes; provided all incumbent commissioners shall continue to hold office for the entire term to which elected notwithstanding any change in commission district and boundaries. DISCUSSION: At the October 16, 2013 meeting, the 2013 Districting Commission voted 6 -0 to recommend that the district map boundaries be adjusted to accommodate the 2010 Census Population and certain extrapolated data. The City Commission accepted the Districting Commission's recommendation and approved Ordinance 2013-14 on November 18, 2013. The adopted district boundaries were reflective of the 2010 Census and certain extrapolated Public Hearings 401 PAGE 2 OF 12 - June 13, 2016 data shown on Map 1 — 2013 District Boundaries and within Table 1 - 2013 Commission District Data. 1Vld p 1 — G V 1J 1J1s l.l"lc t 1. ummisslull IM Ulludl'les CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS • COMMISSION DISTRICT MAP November 2413 r��A / s: • 1 I �•� ,fib ��, � � :,'�.� - � ? • 017 • • � ��1 . i � /� \.. .•'�� � X11 � _, ��% � . • r�' x �' 1 1 •_� <-` , ' _• • is 4. ._ ` f L . � V v r..unuw. mass r Table 1 - 2013 Commission District Data 2013 District Commission Data Total Population Voting Age Population District 1 6,911 5,438 District 2 7,216 5,618 District 3 6,875 5,446 District 4 6,866 5,114 District 5 6,987 5,307 Total 34,855 29,923 2016 Districting Commission Data The seven (7) member Districting Commission appointments for 2016 occurred at various City Commission meetings dating from October 26, 2015 until January 25, 2016. Upon appointment, staff began collecting relevant population data for the upcoming 2016 Commission District Boundaries. There are seven (7) distinct census tracts that are "intermingled" among the City's five (5) commission districts within the City. Since the last redistricting effort in 2013, Staff has continued to utilize the 2010 Census data coupled with development and building permit activity to calculate the total and voting age populations for each current commission district. Staff used the figures from the 2010 Public Hearings 401 PAGE 3 OF 12 - June 13, 2016 Census, the updated 2013 Districting extrapolated data, and the new development data to calculate a deviation from the overall "target" population for each district. The "new development" data included those projects that were projected to create additional population by November 2016, the date of the next election. Pursuant to language in the City's Charter, the districts shall be based upon the principle of equal and effective representation as required by the United States Constitution. The equalization of the total population (TP) as well as the voting age population (VAP) will give each resident of the City who is of legal voting age an equal opportunity to run for a commission seat and, correspondingly, give each commissioner relatively the same number of voters to represent from a district perspective. In essence, it is imperative that, when creating districts, the maximum deviation between the most heavily populated district and the least populated district (Maximum Deviation) is no more than ten (10 %) percent. With this in mind, if the maximum deviation does not exceed 10 %, a city is entitled to a presumption that the districting plan was the result of an "honest and good faith effort to construct districts as nearly of equal population as is practicable". In the attempt to further refine the population numbers to account for development activity since the 2010 Census, staff utilized data from the 2013 districting report and development data for recent projects such as Seven Oaks, the Rile and Tuscany Place, Phase 2. The data identified District Two (2) as the district having the highest total residential unit count and total population. In addition, District Three (3) was identified as the district having the lowest total population. The 2013 districting data coupled with the updated development activity produced certain challenges to the goal of achieving a TP and VAP deviation of no more than 10% between the most heavily populated district and the least populated district (Maximum Deviation). During staff s efforts to adjust district boundaries for the year 2016, the following baseline data was used: 2016 Districting Commission Data Source The census tracts and commission district boundaries from 2013 are depicted in Map 2.

Census Tract Outlines and 2013 District Commission Boundaries DATA CALCULATIONS: Staff utilized the existing 2010 Census data, the 2013 extrapolated data, and the new development data noted above to calculate the 2016 Total Population. The additional units created by the new development are shown in Table 2 Increased Population 2013 -2016. Table 2.

The VAP was calculated by using the Census tract and block data for the new developments. Each Census block has a different conversion percentage for calculating the VAP as a portion of the TP. Staff identified the percentage for each new development and calculated the VAP as found in Table 3.2016 Increase in Voting Age Population. Table 3. 2016 Increase in Voting Age Population Staff then compiled all population increases between 2013 and 2016 as shown in Table 4 Increased Population from 2013 -2016 Total Population. i a oie 4. lncreaseu r up ula tiun arum Lv 1J -Lv 1 o -total r up ula tiun.

Population Totals. i s pie 3. r up uia iiun i u tail To calculate the standard deviation, Staff began by identifying the target number of both TP and VAP. These target numbers were derived simply by dividing the TP and the VAP by five, the number of commission districts. Target number for the TP (total population divided by 5 districts): 7,173 Target number for the VAP (total voting age population divided by 5 districts): 5,556 The standard deviation is the difference of the highest and lowest populations minus the target population. That difference is then divided by the target population. Table 6 Standard Deviation for the Revised 2016 Commission Districts, below, indicates the deviation of the TP and VAP before any boundary adjustments. As can be seen from the data presented below, the deviations for both the TP (14 %) and the VAP (16 %) exceed the allowable total deviation of 10 %, thereby requiring the adjustment of some district boundaries.

Staff began the effort to balance the TP and the VAP by evaluating six different scenarios for adjusting the commission district boundaries. The scenarios included: • Incorporating Tuscawilla Units 14 A and 14 B along Seneca Boulevard, from District Two to District Three. • Adjusting the Wedgewood Tennis Villas and Bear Creek Estates from District Two to District Three. • Adjusting Bear Creek Estates from District Two to District Three. • Moving Wedgewood Tennis Villas from District two to District Three • Removing the southern portion of the Town Center from District Two and placing it into District Five. • Removing Tuscawilla Unit 8 and Georgetown Units 1 and 2 from District Two and placing them into District Three. (Trotwood to Tuscora Scenario). Staff targeted adjusting the population from the largest populated district, District 2, to the least populated district, District 3. After consideration of the resultant numbers generated by these scenarios and the required boundary changes of each, staff was able to identify the "Trotwood to Tuscora" scenario as the one that best achieved the goals of meeting the maximum allowable deviation and promoting contiguity and compactness while allowing the boundary adjustments to be placed along identifiable boundaries, such as roadways. The "Trotwood to Tuscora" scenario is detailed below. 2016 Proposed Boundary Adjustment After evaluating the aforementioned scenarios, Staff found that the proposed boundary adjustment noted below was the most consistent with the City Charter. The proposed adjustment if located just east of Tuskawilla Road, south of Trotwood Boulevard; south of Northern Way to Tuscora drive; and west of Tuscora Drive. The specifics of this adjustment area as detailed above (Removing Tuscawilla Unit 8 and Georgetown Units I and 2 from District Two and placing them into District Three. (Trotwood to Tuscora Scenario). Specific changes are highlighted in yellow on Map 3. Proposed 2016 District Amendment — Trotwood to Tuscora. The area highlighted includes Georgetowne Unit 1 and Unit 2, as well as, Tuscawilla Unit 8. The map depicts a population of 532, identified Public Hearings 401 PAGE 8 OF 12 - June 13, 2016 through the Census Tracts and Blocks, shifting from District Two (2) to District Three (3).

An adjustment of 447 was made in the Voting Age Population, also from District 2 to District 3 to accommodate for Tuscawilla Unit 8, Georgetowne Unit 1 and Unit 2. This scenario not only met the Public Hearings 401 PAGE 10 OF 12 - June 13, 2016 standard deviation allowance of no more than 10% as shown in Table 8 Standard Deviation for Proposed Boundary Change, but it also followed the boundaries of Trotwood Blvd and Tuscora Drive. Table 8. Standard Deviation for Proposed Boundary Findings: 1. The seven (7) member Districting Commission appointments for 2016 occurred between October 6, 2015 until January 25, 2016. 2. The City Commission approved Resolution 2016 -02 on January 25, 2016 providing for appointments to the 2016 Winter Springs Districting Commission; providing a due date for a report containing a recommended plan for adjustment of commission district boundaries; and providing a due date for the City Commission to adopt or reject a redistricting ordinance. 3. The districting commission has filed a report containing a recommendation for the establishment or adjustment of commission district boundaries for consideration by the City Commission at their May 9, 2016 regular meeting. The District Commission's recommendation presented to the City Commission achieves a Total Population Deviation of 7% and a Voting Age Population Deviation of 10% between the highest and lowest populated districts. Therefore, the City is entitled to a presumption that the districting plan, as presented, results in an "honest and good faith effort to construct districts as nearly of equal population as is practicable". 4. The only portion of Florida State Statutes which approximates the "mathematical preciseness reached in the legislative apportionment of the state" is that found in Section 124.01, Florida Statutes, which reads "shall be as nearly equal in proportion to population as possible". This section is applicable to Counties but has been used by staff to arrive at the total deviation number of 10 % that has been used in past redistricting efforts for the City. 5.

Public Works /Utility Departments — Urban Beautification Division The Community Development Department, Planning Division, Is Presenting The Districting Commission With A Recommendation For The 2016 City Commission District Boundaries, Reflecting the 2010 Census Population And Updated Development Data Since The 2010 Census Was Completed. The Districting Commission Must Forward A Recommendation To The City Commission For Its Consideration At The Regular City Commission Meeting On May 9, 2016. Ms. Amanda Webb, Planner, Community Development Department presented the Agenda Item and provided some historical background related to the redistricting process. Ms. Webb discussed new developments that would have a Certificate of Occupancy by the November 2016 Election and commented on 2010 Census. Referencing a PowerPoint presentation, Ms. Webb reviewed calculations of standard deviations for total and voting age populations within the City and commented, "The maximum deviation is actually — it's really important and this requirement basically allows us to keep each of the districts from the lowest population to the highest population as near equal as possible. So, the equalization of the total population and voting age population — it's essential because then it provides each resident within the City, who is of legal age to vote, an equal opportunity, in a sense, to run for a Commission Seat." After additional discussion, Ms. Webb indicated a desired maximum standard deviation would be ten percent (10 %) or less and mentioned further calculations. Chairperson Bob Henderson inquired if the Southern Oaks development was included in the calculations. Ms. Webb indicated that the Southern Oaks development was not included in the calculations because a Certificate of Occupancy would not be given prior to the November 2016 Election. Mr. Randy Stevenson, ASLA, AICP, Director, Community Development Department explained, "There are a lot of developments that we've heard about, and that we're working on that aren't here, only those that will generate population as of November of this year were taken into account." Mr. Stevenson confirmed that construction for the Southern Oaks development has only occurred on the portion located in the City of Oviedo. Further comments. Next, Ms. Webb discussed varying adjusted Commission District boundaries and the process of balancing the total and voting age populations. While reviewing several redistricting scenarios, Ms. Webb emphasized, "It's important that we have contiguous boundaries, keep neighborhoods in the same District." Referring to the scenario of Trotwood Boulevard to Tuscora Drive, Ms. Webb stated, "This scenario really it's outlined in yellow on the screen — it allowed us to keep with the compact boundaries and it also allowed us to be within our targeted deviations, I believe, seven percent (7 %) and ten percent (10 %)." Ms. Webb commented further on the calculations of the total and voting age populations regarding the proposed Commission District Boundary adjustment. CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA DRAFT MINUTES DISTRICTING COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING -APRIL 27, 2016 PAGE 5 OF 7 Vice - Chairperson Nancy Shear asked about any impact to the residents. Ms. Webb answered, "Basically the only the impact would be that they would move from District Two boundary to District Three." Discussion ensued on the effects of the redistricting on the November 2016 Election. Mr. Stevenson noted that the locations of each sitting Commissioner and each current Candidate were taken into consideration when reviewing the different scenarios. Further, Mr. Stevenson added, "The Districts also prevent all of the Commissioners from coming from one little segment of the community." Additional comments. Discussion followed on a possible sixth district, projected growth, the proposed Commission District Boundary adjustment from Trotwood Boulevard to Tuscora Drive, alternative scenarios, and the importance of compact boundaries. Board Member Phyllis Kent inquired about the City's choice to use 2010 census data and wondered if it was a requirement. Mr. Stevenson explained, "In 2013, we went to the [2010] census because it was fairly recent and we actually go the census block level for several reasons. First of all, it's the most accurate at projecting the population because some of these blocks are very, very small. But, as you understand, we are not only projecting total population, we're also projecting voting age population and, believe it or not, voting age population as a percentage of total population varies by census block." Further discussion followed on census data. Additional comments followed on taxes and distributions and Mr. Stevenson added, "You want to make sure the opportunity to run for Commissioner is distributed evenly as we can among your voting age population and that the Commissioners represent roughly the same number of people in their District, even though they represent the entire city — since we have at -large elections." Continuing, Board Member Jane Pope inquired, "So, we're feeling comfortable that the population in Winter Springs is 35,867 as of November 20167 Mr. Stevenson confirmed, "As close as we can get it, yes." Further comments. Ms. Webb indicated that Staffs preferred recommendation was the Trotwood Boulevard to Tuscora Drive scenario for the proposed 2016 Commission District Boundary adjustment. "THEN I WOULD MOVE THAT THE — WE APPROVE THE RECOMMENDATIONS AS PRESENTED AND FORWARD THIS TO THE CITY COMMISSION RECOMMENDING APPROVAL." MOTION BY CHAIRPERSON HENDERSON.

CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - MAY 9, 2016 PAGE 12 OF 21 Commissioner Cannon mentioned he would like to move forward with both and asked if this could this be done. kpo f Mayor Lacey said to Mr. Fields, "Assuming this goes forward and we spend this forty -eight thousand dollars ($48,000,00), what would happen in the normal course of events next for us to get to Central Winds Drive. Mr. Fields explained, "This is final design for the City Hall turn lane. This will take us to a shovel ready construction Permit. Central Winds, I would say step one would be to look at feasibility, have our Consultant come out and look at the right -of -way and the volume and the signal and give us a very preliminary `This is doable' or not, and maybe ask some questions of DOT (Department of Transportation). If it's doable and we know the constraints, then they would give us a design proposal and we would bring that back, similar to this one. So, we would be glad to explore that feasibility step, that's usually at no cost to us with one of our Consultants, just a meeting on site and a few phone calls. We'd be glad to do that and then if the Commission desires, to bring that back as well." Deputy Mayor Hovey inquired, "Can we do that and do it in a quick amount of time so we can look at it for Budget purposes for next year?" Comments followed on funding to possibly buy needed property.

The next issue for us to address after I recognize Commissioner Cannon, is this item, in and of itself, and then expecting to see some further information on the Central Winds option quickly down the road."
