Commissioner Johnson remarked as to what a great job Manager Smith had done since becoming City
Manager and stated, "The citizens of Winter Springs have certainly benefited from your efforts and your
expertise. That said, I am big on having a dinner to recognize people in your category; and I think it
would be highly appropriate for this City to have a dinner. I think that would do justice in recognizing
you and thanking you for all of your years of service; and I know we typically have functions at the
Tuscawilla Country Club. I would throw that out there — I am adamant that I think we ought to have an
evening to do you justice in thanking you for all of your help."
Discussion followed on the logistics of trying to have something put together before Manager Smith left
Winter Springs. Manager Smith mentioned his great appreciation and the assistance he has received,

Deputy Mayor Cannon said that lie also agreed with the previous comments and added, "I feel that a ZPO
banquet is definitely in order and I also feel that some other additional recognition like a 'Key to the
City' is also very much in order." Deputy Mayor Carnion further spoke of how much he appreciated
Manager Smith.
Mayor Lacey remarked, "It sounds like we are narrowing in on a banquet which I am supportive of The
last time we did this was in honor of Commissioner [Joanne] Krebs when she retired, so we have a
ternplate that is not very old for how to do it; so, I would suggest that at this point we tell Andrea
(Lorenzo -Luaces, City Clerk) that we want to have something similar to what we did two (2) years ago
for Commissioner Krebs. Is there agreement on that instruction?" Deputy Mayor Cannon stated, "Yes."
No objections were noted.
Mayor Lacey added, "The 'Key to the City' is a great idea. I would endorse that."
City Clerk Lorenzo-Luaces referenced the event for fon-ner Commissioner Krebs and noted that it was
done with a fifty/fifty (50150) type payment; and asked if the City Commission would like to do that, or
perhaps have the City cover the entire costs of such an event,
Commissioner Kendrick said he was not against this; however, he was wondering if perhaps the City
should pay for the entire event. Mayor Lacey remarked, "I think some kind of cost sharing is
appropriate because otherwise you don't know if you have serious people who want to come — you get a
lot of reservations and no-shows; I think you really need to put some nominal price tag on it,"
Deputy Mayor Cannon commented, "I agree with the cost sharing for the very reasons you stated
Mayor. It gives you a firmer head count for food planning," Deputy Mayor Cannon then suggested City
Clerk Lorenzo-Luaces report back to the Mayor and City Commission on the event date. City Clerk
Lorenzo-Luaces added, "Are you all leaning towards a dinner or a lunch." Commissioner Kendrick
stated, "Dinner." No disagreements were voiced.
Comments followed on a possible date and Mayor Lacey pointed out, "I don't think Fridays/Saturdays
are a requirement — does anyone disagree with that?" Commissioner Kendrick suggested, "We could do
it during the week." No objections were noted. Mayor Lacey then said to City Clerk Lorenzo-Luaces,
"Whatever you can work out at the country club." City Clerk Lorenzo-Luaces stated, "Okay, And I will
just get back in touch with you all." Mayor Lacey and Commissioner Kendrick commented, "Yes.
Deputy Mayor Cannon added, "Yes, that will work."

NEED TO MOVE FORWARD QUICKLY WITH ESTABLISHING THAT FORMAL SEARCH
PROCEDURE.
AND FOR MV TWO (2) CENTS, THE CHARTER DOES PROVIDE THAT THE CITY
MANAGER DOES ALL THE HIRING AND FIRING, BUT I THINK THAT WE AS, A
COMMISSION CAN EXPRESS THE WILL OF THE COMMISSION THAT THE FOCUS mm
NEEDS TO BE MAINTAINING FULL CONTINUITY OF GOVERNMENT HERE IN THE
CITY; AND THE INTERIM APPOINTEE, PROBABLY WOULD BE BEST SUITED DOING
THAT AND NOT DRAMATICALLY MAKING DECISIONS WITH DEPARTMENTHEADS

INTERIM CITY MANAGER TO BE RUNNING THE CITY FIRST AND FOREMOST, AND
NOT ENGAGING IN WHOLESALE SHUFFLING AROUND OF DEPARTMENT HEADS. I

DURING THIS INTERIM PERIOD."

Mayor Lacey remarked, '"So, that does pass by the required four (4) Vote margin. Mr. Boyle we took
forward in four (4) weeks time to you joining us."
In terms of a process to procure a permanent City Manager, Deputy Mayor Cannon noted, "In the
interest of expediting the next and the really critical stage of this, that we should give direction to our
staff with guidance from Kevin Smith before his departure, to begin the process of opening Lip a search
for candidates, invitations for candidates to submit applications, and to fornialize perhaps and bring
back to us at the next meeting - perhaps Kevin Smith could bring us back some targeted timelines in the
process that the realistic timelines and process for us to follow.
I don't want toJust leave it wide open I think that if we come Lip with timelines just like we did tonight
with the preparation of the budget; if we build in some timelines with some deliverable dates, that's
going to keep this process moving and bring in quality candidates for our consideration."
Mayor Lacey said to Deputy Mayor Cannon, '*When you say, staff, I would suggest that that include
prominently Anthony (Garganese) as part of that process..." Deputy Mayor Cannon responded,
"...Absolutely. Yes, I feel that this would need to be Anthony (Garganese) as well as our HR
department and as well as Kevin Smith's assistance before he leaves; so, that we can come up with a
timeline for deliverable dates and targets and then also obviously after Kevin leaves if we need to
bring in a Consultant or someone to help get through the applications, we can do that.",
Commissioner Hale suggested that perhaps some Interns from the University of Central Florida (UCF)
could assist the City with this process.

Mayor Lacey added, "I like the way the Deputy Mayor phrased it because it's beginning the process
now without walking us into a specific way of doing it. I really this that we will benefit from a little
bit of time passing to let Shawn (Boyle) get in place and begin that transition. Focus on the transition
f1-om Kevin Smith to the Interim and then begin in earnest looking at how we fill it long ten -n; so, I
would like us to not get too tied Lip in the process now but in a few weeks, what you are saying, is very
appropriate."
Further discussion.

Deputy Mayor Cannon added, -We are not just looking internally for the permanent City Manager, we
are looking for the best and brightest candidates that we feel will be the best match fore the City; and to
utilize the services of both Anthony (Garganesc) and our HR department to do those advertisements, to
assemble the applications, and so forth; and that is what I envisioned. Have them kind of report back to
us on some kind of a tirnefi-ame of what they think realistically that will entail."
"I MAKE A MOTION THAT' WE GIVE DIRECTION TO THE CITY ATTORNEY AND TO
THE CITY HR DEPARTMENT TO BEGIN A PROCESS AND REPORT BACK TO US — IN AN
EXPEDITED WAY, NEXT MEETING OR TWO (2), SETTING FORTH THE
ADVERTISEMENT FOR THE POSITIONS AND THE PROCESS BY WHICH WE WILL BE

Mayor Lacey had no Report.
Related to other City business, Manager Smith stated, "At the last Workshop, we all discussed processes
for moving forward and I asked everybody to give me an opportunity to do a little more research, and
report back to you all at this meeting. That being said, there's a couple paths that we're seeking to take
with your approval.
Number one, is we are reaching out to a Consultant or through the League of Cities, or whatnot for
purposes of comprising and putting forward a Visioning Session - similar to what we did about ten (10)
years ago, to involve obviously the dais and the citizens to come in and go through a fon-nalized process
that I think would be beneficial to you all, for getting that input that you sought as we continue Our
Workshops."
Manager Smith added that they are also working on a survey that would go on the City's website and
through other means, would obtain citizen feedback, to which Manager Smith remarked, "So, those two
(2) things right now are simultaneously being constructed. I don't know an exact date for the .--
Visioning Session yet, but I anticipate probably somewhere in the neighborhood of late April but we'd
certainly bring that back to you all for approval and we would move forward also on the survey
immediately as soon as we have that constructed.
Relative to the Workshop, the next one as you know is scheduled for next Monday the 18". Because
we're moving forward with the Visioning Session and the surveys, I still think that you all have some
desire to move forward on Workshops relative to the items that you had discussed before and so my
thought is that we would move forward with that; however next week - as you all know, is spring break,
CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES (ATYCOMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - MARCH 11, 2019 PAGE IS OF 19
I know that citizen input is important to the dais and I think you may be a little bit hampered by travel
plans next week from our citizens; so, my recommendation is that perhaps we skip next Monday night in
deference to the spring break holiday and then we pick back up with our next scheduled Workshop on —
April the I", which will afford staff the opportunity to get a little more information on the items that I've
discussed tonight." Manager Smith then said, "I'd be seeking Consensus or approval on that timeline
and process, Mayor."
Commissioner Kendrick stated, "Agreed." Commissioner Hale added, "Yes." Deputy Mayor Cannon
