If the City Commission is in agreement with what the City Clerk provides in these Minutes,
then the City Commission would be asked to Approve the Minutes, as submitted. Should

Mr. Denny Robinson, 639 Nighthawk Circle, Winter Springs, Florida: speaking on behalf of the

Boulevard at Moree Loop, and explained that this area always floods and as there are no sidewalks,
when it rains, people walk out into the street to get around the flooded area. Mr. Robinson also

with any interested individuals.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Commission review and provide input on an Arbor Master Plan and
potential Arbor Code update.
Mr. Fields opened this Agenda Item with a brief overview on the process regarding arbor mitigation
funds for a horneowner or a new development project.
Comments followed on the City's tree canopy, proposed City owned parcels which could potentially be
enhanced with more trees, working with the City's Parks Master Plan, taking funds from arbor
mitigation so that more trees can be added, improving the City's tree canopy especially where there are
gaps, assisting with Homeowner's Associations and residents who may want more trees, as well as arbor
outreach efforts.
Mr. Fields next referenced the Arbor Code and improvements such as streamlining permitting, reducing
fees when possible, and flexibility.
Commissioner Cannon said he had contacted the Audubon Society and hoped we could work with them
so that we select the right trees for local species, and also suggested having at least a srmail/green buffer
on new developments rather than a Developer clearcutting right to sidewalks.
Mr. Fields commented on buffers they have implemented thus far and what else could be done.
Commissioner Cannon further mentioned he had received calls regarding tagged trees on the Hawthorne
property.
Deputy Mayor Geoff Kendrick addressed large medians in the City, car versus tree law, inquired what
was the largest tree that could be planted in medians in order to work towards improving tree canopy,
what the threshold was, and how do we get there. Mr. Fields spoke of "clear space" and thought they
could see what could be done to maximize efforts. Deputy Mayor Kendrick hoped we could go with
trees that could grow to a "reasonable" size.
Mayor Lacey remarked that it seemed best to incentivize people when clearing property to "leave trees
in place" rather than planting replacement trees and whether the Code encouraged this. Mr. Fields
addressed potential changes.
CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - OCTOBER 8. 2U l8 PAGE 10 OF 15
Comments followed on what size trees can be planted and replanted, "right tree, right place", and the
legality to use Arbor funds to plant trees on private land, to which. Mr. Fields said a public purpose was
needed. Further discussion ensued on incentivizing, and whenever possible, replanting more desirable
tree species.
Deputy Mayor Kendrick inquired as to what arbor mitigation funds were paid by the RiZE at Winter
Springs, Catalyst, and Integra 360 projects and the collected funds. Mr. Fields noted that the Catalyst
project paid one hundred thirty-three thousand dollars ($133,000.00) and Integra 360 paid eighty-eight
thousand dollars ($88,000.00) for arbor mitigation.
Mr. Fields mentioned he would get back to Deputy Mayor Kendrick regarding arbor mitigation funds
paid by the RiZE at Winter Springs' project.
Commissioner Hovey asked if a citizen could call and ask for a tree to be planted in their yard, to which
Mr. Fields said that was possible. Commissioner Hovey then inquired whether a commercial project
could also request trees. In either case, it was explained that any such plantings would need to be on a
right-of-way, not on private property. Furthermore, Commissioner Jack Hays hoped that we could keep
the visual barriers that Commissioner Cannon referenced.
City Manager Kevin L. Smith summarized, "If the Commission generally is agreeable to where we're
headed which is again to memorialize what we're already doing in a Master Plan, to do one of my
favorite things which is to streamline Code and make it easy and more efficient to understand, and so
on, and so forth - and as well, to provide some incentives to maintain or to preserve tree canopy,
specifically on the commercial projects; and perhaps even maybe one thing we haven't discussed, I'm
always looking for an opportunity to make it easier and better for our residents, our citizens, for the
residential community."
Continuing, Manager Smith added, "If that's the case, we'll bring this back at some future meeting,
maybe as a draft Ordinance for you all to take a look at it and see if we can't move this thing forward."
Further remarks.
Mayor Lacey stated, "I would like to ask the Commission for a Consensus approval of the Manager's
recommendation for it to come back." Commissioner Cannon said, "Absolutely." Commissioners Ken
Greenberg and Commissioner Hays nodded in support. Deputy Mayor Kendrick said, "Agreed."
No objections were voiced.
REG€'1._kR
50 l . Office of the City Manager
REQUEST:
The City Commission has requested to continue its review and discussion of the current City
Commission meeting start time. If the City Commission desires to modify the meeting start time,
the City Attorney will have to prepare an Ordinance for the City Commission's final
consideration at a subsequent meeting.
CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS. FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - OCTOBER 8, 2018 PAGE I I OF 15
FISCAL IMPACT:
Any cost increase resulting from an appreciable change in the City Commission meeting times
will depend upon the following relevant factors: 1) the selected start and end times of the
Commission meeting; 2) the quantity of non -salaried employees required to attend the particular
Commission meeting; 3) the associated compensation of those employees, and 4) a supervisor's
ability (or inability) to flex the participating employee's time of attendance (due to individual and
overall work-toad/need). Every effort will be made to flex the time of attendance for those
employees. Thus, it is anticipated that in most cases, these efforts will cause any additional costs
to be nominal or nil.
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

(6) different locations around the City. Furthermore, this information is also available to any
individual requesters. City Staff is always willing to discuss this Agenda Item or any Agenda Item
with any interested individuals.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Cite Commission establishes its own meeting times at its discretion. The City Commission
has requested to review and discuss the current City Commission meeting times which currently
commence at 5:15 p.m. pursuant to Ordinance 2016-09. If the City Commission desires to modify
the meeting time(s), the City Commission should direct the City Attorney to prepare an
Ordinance for the City Commission's final consideration at a subsequent meeting.
Discussion ensued on a flexed/split schedule, perhaps 5:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m., however, if this was
chosen, then whenever Land Use issues were to be discussed by the City Commission, advertising and a
later meeting time would need to be considered. Additionally, if this was what the City Commission
agreed on, then, Manager Smith asked that flexibility be given to him to schedule such issues
accordingly.
Commissioner Cannon noted his preference that City Commission meetings start at 6:30 p.m.
Deputy Mayor Kendrick commented on different kinds of City Commission meetings and when
different types of meetings could be held. Commissioner Greenberg spoke of being intrigued by the
suggested split/flexed start time, the times when other Seminole County cities hold their meetings, how
6:00 p.m. seemed to be a reasonable time for people to get off of work and then attend a meeting, that
Members of the City Commission have their personal contact information on the City's website and
answer inquiries usually by email or telephone, and that a 6:00 p.m. commencement time seems like it
would work for families also.
CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - OCTOBER 8, 2018 PAGE 12 0E 15
Commissioner Hays added that he agreed with a 6:00 p.m. start time which seemed to be the most
flexible time, and also noted that he was also fine with a split/flexed time.
Further comments.
The current meeting stop time was addressed next, as well as transparency, and how previous City
Commission Meetings ran very long. Mayor Lacey suggested, "We keep the stop times the same but up
it to a super majority to go past 8:30 and a unanimous Vote to go past 10:00." Commissioner Hovey
spoke in agreement of this. Commissioner Cannon thought the end time could be kept the same and
noted that he was not a fan of super majority votes, unless there seemed to be issues. r0
