Home My WebLink About01-17-2008 Winter Springs (Kate Latorre)Page Andrea Lorenzo-luaces From: Kate Latorre [klatorre@oriandolaw.net] Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2008 5:23 PM To: Danielle Harker Cc: Andrea Lorenzo-luaces Subject: RE: Winter Springs Attachments: Kate Latorre.vcf Danielle: 1. DRAFT ADVERTISEMENT: The title of the Resolution in the advertisement should reflect exactly the title of the resolution. I don't think your draft advertisement reflects the title precisely as proposed. Also, please see the answer to question #3 below for further information regarding the ad. 2. NUMBER OF PUBLIC HEARINGS: This issue is a little confusing because normally, Resolutions are only read once, not twice. However, since section 376.80, F.S., requires that this Resolution be adopted pursuant to section 166.041(c)(3)2, F.S., the proper route seems to be two (2) advertised public hearings. 3. DISPLAY AD: Yes, a map is required for the display ad pursuant to section 376.80(1). You should follow the advertisement procedure set forth in section 166.041(c)(3)2 which provides as follows (again, this references "ordinance" even though it's applying to "resolution" in this instance): a. The local governing body shall hold two advertised public hearings on the proposed ordinance. At least one hearing shall be held after 5 p.m. on a weekday, unless the local governing body, by a majority plus one vote, elects to conduct that hearing at another time of day. The first public hearing shall be held at least 7 days after the day that the first advertisement is published. The second hearing shall be held at least 10 days after the first hearing and shall be advertised at least 5 days prior to the public hearing. b. The required advertisements shall be no less than 2 columns wide by 10 inches long in a standard size or a tabloid size newspaper, and the headline in the advertisement shall be in a type no smaller than 18 point. The advertisement shall not be placed in that portion of the newspaper where legal notices and classified advertisements appear. The advertisement shall be placed in a newspaper of general paid circulation in the municipality and of general interest and readership in the municipality, not one of limited subject matter, pursuant to chapter 50. It is the legislative intent that, whenever possible, the advertisement appear in a newspaper that is published at least 5 days a week unless the only newspaper in the municipality is published less than 5 days a week. 4. WHERE ADVERTISED: The statute only specifies that it NOT be advertised in the legal notice or classified section of the paper. 5. DAYS NOTICE: Ad to run at least seven days prior to first hearing; at least 5 days prior to second hearing. I trust this answers all of your questions at this juncture. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you require clarification or further information. Kate Latorre, Esq. 225 East Robinson Street, Suite 66 5/8/2008 Page 2 of 4 P.O.

From: Danielle Harker(mailto:dharker@winterspringsfl.org] Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2008 8:48 AM To: Anthony Garganese; Kate Latorre Cc: Jennette Farris; Andrea Lorenzo-luaces Subject: FW: Winter Springs Importance: High Good Morning, Attached is a Resolution that needs to be advertised regarding the Brownfield/S.E.E.D Area. Could you please answer the following questions that I have regarding advertising this Resolution: 1.) Can you review the advertisement wording that I have come up with (file is called `Advertisement Wording')? 2.) I was under the impression that this Resolution would have (2) readings instead of the normal (1) reading. Can you confirm this? 3.) Because there is a map to include with the wording (file is called `1792CRAfirEconWinterSpringsColor'), does this Resolution need to run as a display ad? 4.) What section in the newspaper does this advertisement need to run? 5.) How many days before the Public Hearing does this advertisement need to run? If you could please answer the above questions at your earliest convenience, so that I can contact Orlando Sentinel to run the ad, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help!
