City Manager explained that "The recommendation was to keep them on the table for
discussion - is what really the recommendation was from the Commission."
Commissioner Michael S. Blake suggested, "As far as this overall Item goes, Item 'G,' I
would recommend we place this back - exactly where it was on tonight's Agenda; and
when we get to the end of the Meeting, if there is time to go over and have these
discussions, let's have it then; otherwise let's use that time to set a Workshop." Manager
McLemore then stated, "Just a point of clarification, that doing that, we would
acknowledge it will have no impact on any decisions relative to tentative millage or
tentative budget tonight."
Commissioner Blake added, "That's the tentative Millage rate and it's the tentative
Budget, it will be finalized, and both can be changed anytime between now and the 2nd
Adoption Hearing, or even at the 2nd Adoption Hearing." Manager McLemore said,
"Correct." Commissioner Blake then said, "All we are doing - if we approve the tentative
Budget and if we adopt the Resolution for the tentative Millage rate, all we are doing is
retaining all of our options that we currently have before us, until that time frame."
Manager McLemore added, "Correct." Further discussion.
Deputy Mayor McLeod inquired if there were additional funds available for a "Better
communication system" between builders and contractors and the City's Building
Department." Deputy Mayor McLeod suggested this funding be "Put in the original
Budget."
Discussion followed on tonight's Budget Items. City Attorney Anthony A. Garganese
explained, "The City received a letter from the Department of Revenue stating that it
should hold its Budget Hearings first on the Agenda tonight at 6:30. I don't read that into
the law. The law says that the Budget Hearings just have to occur after 5:00, after being
publicly announced by the City or advertised by the City. So, in an abundance of caution
given the letter from D.O.R., we are proceeding first with the Budget Items."
A MOTION WAS STATED BY COMMISSIONER MILLER, AND WAS LATER
STATED AS: "I WOULD LIKE TO RETURN ITEM 'G' TO ITS NORMAL
PLACE ON TONIGHT'S AGENDA. WE'LL DISCUSS IT WHEN WE GET TO
IT." MOTION BY COMMISSIONER MILLER. SECONDED BY
COMMISSIONER GENNELL. DISCUSSION.
MAYOR PARTYKA STATED THAT COMMISSIONER MILLER MEANT,
"AGENDA 'G' STAYS WHERE IT IS, FOR DISCUSSION."

* Update On The Development Of The Orlando-Sanford International Airport
Presented by Ms. Lena Juarez
Ms Lena Juarez spoke on the growth of the Orlando-Sanford International Airport. Ms.
Juarez explained that "In the past five years - they have managed to develop the main
runway as well as expand it."
Commissioner Blake stated, "I am quite concerned about some of the expansion at the
airport, especially in terms of discussion of the North-South runway." Ms. Juarez stated,
"The North-South runway? Well recently, they received about approximately eight
million dollars to acquire further land to expand the runway and they are currently in the
process of acquiring that land," Commissioner Blake then said, "Somebody from the
Airport was here about two (2) years ago, and told us that the North-South runway would
absolutely not be extended. They discussed with us that there would be conflicts between
those flight patterns, OAl, and the Executive Airport in Orlando. Did something
change?" Ms. Juarez responded, "Not that I am aware of. I was more aware of the
environmental impact in the area, not the flight patterns. I could certainly follow up for
you." Commissioner Blake then said, "Is it the intention at this point in time to fully
build out the North-South runway?" Ms. Juarez replied, "That is my understanding with
the master plan that they have currently."
Commissioner Blake stated, "I just think the Commission ought to be aware that if that
does occur, that means that we happen to be at the southern end of the North-South
runway directly, and we will be negatively impacted." Manager McLemore added that
he recalled the same comments were made to the City Commission, in that "There was no
intention of expanding that runway." Commissioner Blake added, "The comment that
was made to us was there was an assurance given to us that there would not be an
expansion of it because of the conflicts created by OIA and the Executive Airport."
Manager McLemore stated, "I think we need to have their Executive Director here or the
Chairman of their board." Commissioner Blake added, "I certainly think we need to have
a discussion about this. And I would also like to ask the Clerk to perhaps search through
and find out when that presentation was made and we can take a look at exactly what was
said. "
Mayor Partyka advised Ms. Juarez, "I think that we need to get a little bit of clarification
on this - North-South expansion, and what the impact is on Winter Springs, okay?" Ms.
Juarez stated, "Okay." Mayor Partyka then stated, "Once we get the facts on this from
our records, perhaps we could set up a time for someone to come, either the President or
some other executive of their board."

* Update On The Town Center
Mr. Chip Carrington, Counsel to the James Doran Company: asked the Commission for
consideration on the design and/or selection of a logo which would "Create a sense of
identity or sense of place and if we have a logo that appears everywhere through the
Town Center as a theme - it will strengthen the project."
Mr. David Tomlin: as the Landscape Architect and Land Planner for the project he
presented some conceptual plans for the proposed Town Center. Mr. Tomlin added, "As
we talked about, we want to move away from the idea of monumental signs, for
something of much more greater detail. Mr. Tomlin then explained that "Publix as the
main anchor, is requesting some signage within the development and they have requested
a spot on 434 and Main Street." Regarding one of the conceptual drawings, Deputy
Mayor McLeod asked, "Why would we have a wall that's on Main Street?" Discussion.
Tape IISide B
Mr. Shane Doran, James Doran Company: advised the Commission, "I want to make a
clarification. I think David, you're talking about it being on both sides and only having
signage on one side right?" Mr. Tomlin responded, "Right." Mr. Doran then said, "And
it would match the exact design of the necessary walls." Mr. Doran further stated, "It
would be signage on one side, matching wall on the other."
Discussion ensued on the various concepts that were presented to the Commission. Mr.
Doran then said, "Can we take that as a sign that you're not real thrilled with concept
"C?" Deputy Mayor McLeod stated, "Not where it was depicted to be. No."
Commissioner Robert S. Miller stated, "You made a comment about four (4) foot, so I
assume you're talking about walls that might even be like two (2), three (3), or four (4)
feet." Mr. Tomlin agreed with Commissioner Miller's comments.
Commissioner Blake added, "I think what you're really talking about here is utilizing
walls." Mr. Tomlin stated, "Correct. And one of the ideas that we talked about was that
maybe this option becomes some signage on the building itself. What we want to do is
make whatever we do and present it to you guys. We would develop more concept
sketches - it blends into the language of this Town Center; it's not the monumental type
sign that we're all aware that we can't bring to this."
Discussion. Mr. Doran advised the Commission, "As far as a building being a substitute
for a sign that's not mounted on a building, that won't be possible with the timing - not
CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS
MINUTES
CITY COMMISSION
REGULAR MEETING - SEPTEMBER 10.2001
PAGE 7 OF 27
to bring the whole timing thing up, but there won't be a building on Main Street in time
to have building signage to function for Publix. The second clarification that I would like
to make is it isn't just a request of Publix that they have signage there, but as I've said
before, it is a requirement."
Commissioner Blake asked, "Is it still a requirement during the time that there are no out
buildings or liner buildings up?" Mr. Doran replied, "Yes." Commissioner Blake then
stated, "1 might suggest we look for short-term alternatives during the build-out phase.
That will get us to where we need to be, but, ultimately I think that these two (2) or three
(3) ideas are probably more in line with what I would be looking towards. And I would
like to be flexible. I would like to find a way to get us there, without violating that
monument sign issue. "
Commissioner Cindy Gennell then stated, "1 would not be opposed to a Variance if it was
done tastefully, but by the same token I find it very attractive the use of the entrance wall,
and I don't object to something looking like you're pulling into a subdivision, because
actually, a lot of those subdivisions entrances are actually quite attractive."
Commissioner Miller stated that he was interested in seeing additional sketches, when
available.
Regarding the suggested logo, Commissioner Gennell said that she was not sure that the
City's new logo would be available any time soon to be incorporated; and was not sure if
it was even necessary to be part of this signage.
Discussion followed on where the proposed signs would be. Mr. Doran stated that three
(3) locations were suggested for signage, but "I am open to reducing it to two (2)."
Discussion followed on what would happen next; a previous Commission subcommittee;
this last issue of signage; and getting further sketches back to Staff and the City
Commission. Deputy Mayor McLeod suggested that regarding the illustrations, "Give
them to Staff, and Staff should be the ones to send it to us." Deputy Mayor McLeod then
stated, "I would really direct you Mayor to continue to work with Staff and continue to
get your paperwork to Staff - let Staff give it to us." Mayor Partyka added, "I think what
Mr. Doran is saying - if we are going to do the work anyway for Staff, there is nothing
wrong with giving a copy to the Commissioners so they could look at it the same time,
and we've asked for those kind of things."
Mr. Doran then added, "There are some "Special Exceptions" being processed in
conjunction with the last elevation, that should meet the deadline for the next Meeting."
Commissioner Blake inquired about the "Special Exceptions" that Mr. Doran had spoken
of and was advised that it was "Nothing new."

promised her a response long before today and I know that she as been in touch with the
Mayor and she has telephoned me." Commissioner Martinez added, "I don't know if we
can go $5,000.00, but I think we should make a commitment to give Winter Springs High
School as much as we can for this endeavor.
Much discussion. Commissioner Gennell stated, "I would support a donation up to
$5,000.00 for them in this endeavor." Additionally, Commissioner Blake inquired as to

Commissioner Miller, Commissioner Gennell and Deputy Mayor McLeod all agreed.
Tape 2/Side B
Manager McLemore stated, "We're all on the same team and all trying to accomplish the
same thing, but I have a chartered responsibility for the administration, and this is
administration." Commissioner Blake suggested other wording such as, "With due
notification to the Commission." Manager McLemore said, "I have no problem with
that. "
Mayor Partyka suggested "Instead of 'Approval of the City Commission,' how about
'With timely notification to the City Commission. ", Manager McLemore said that this
was agreeable to him. Commissioner Miller was in favor of the wording, "With the
approval." Commissioner Blake stated, "For me, notification is sufficient."
Commissioner Gennell favored, "Approval." Deputy Mayor McLeod asked "What is
timely." Commissioner Blake suggested, "Prior to implementation would be timely."
Mayor Partyka then stated, "Do we have to say with notification, prior to implementation
to the City Commission." Mayor Partyka clarified, "Right now, this Commission already
has approved the language of' Approval.' I mean that's already on the table. Now, what
we're saying is in light of this recent discussion, does this Commission want to change
that?"
Mayor Partyka then stated, "There was some clarification by Commissioner McLeod to
say, "Okay, notification prior to implementation to the City Commission."
Commissioner Miller stated he was in favor of "Approval." Commissioner Blake stated,
"Yes, I'm fine with that." Mayor Partyka further inquired of Commissioner Blake, "Fine
with the notification?" Commissioner Blake responded, "With the timely notification."
Commissioner Gennell said, "Approval." Deputy Mayor McLeod stated, "Prior
notification." Mayor Partyka stated, "I would go with 'Prior to implementation to the
City Commission.' That's 'Notification. ",
Discussion.
Regarding "Derivatives," Commissioner Blake spoke of the risks associated with
"Derivatives" and stated, "My recommendation would be that we simply do not allow
the holding of 'Derivatives.'" Members of the Commission and Manager McLemore all
agreed with this. Mayor Partyka summarized, "Eliminate that." Mr. Alexander then
stated, "I think what I would - we would have a paragraph that says, 'Derivatives would
be prohibited.'" Mayor Partyka stated, "Exactly." Commissioner Blake added,
"Expressly prohibited. Yes."
The "Annual Investment Report" was next discussed and whether it had to be a separate
report or could it be part ofthe 'CAFR?'" With discussion, Mr. Alexander explained that
CITY OF WINTER SPRlNGS

it needed to be a separate report. Commissioner Blake added, "You can have it in the
'CAFR' - there is not a prohibition against it being in the 'CAFR,' but what he is saying
is - you have to have a separate broken out individual document, that stands out on its
own. "
Regarding adoption, Mr. Alexander and Attorney Garganese spoke of striking the word
"Resolution." Attorney Garganese suggested, "I would recommend that the first sentence
that says, 'The investment policy shall be adopted in writing,' and strike, 'By City

Providing The City Commission Additional Information On The Mosquito Control
Program.
Commissioner Gennell spoke of previous spraying twice a week, whether it was needed,
and stated, "I'm not sure what we shouldn't look at as a Commission, whether we don't
want to put a little more muscle into the mosquito spraying here." Discussion followed
on the difference in previous spraying techniques and criteria standards. Commissioner
Gennell asked for an explanation on the "Intricacies of the other testing" - "Threshold."
Discussion followed on spraying zones and related overtime. Commissioner Miller
stated, "I would like to see that brought back, if that's what we have do, and if it has to be
funded, then I think we need to look at that. But, I would like to see us go to a proactive
system." Commissioner Miller added, "I would like to see us go to - in the wetlands, and
I will leave it up to you to come back with the criteria that we would have to meet, and
maybe it would have to be a solid week of rain, or so many inches, or something like
that. "
Tape 3/Side A
Different types of applications and thresholds was next discussed. In terms of providing
better application and coverage, Manager McLemore stated, "If you really want to do it
and knock them down, you've got to go to - an aerial type spraying." Commissioner
Gennell then commented on not being able to rely on Seminole County and overtime.
Furthermore, regarding overtime, Commissioner Gennell stated, "If we don't hire extra
people to do mosquito spraying and put them on regular pay, then that overtime pay

essentially should be part of the budget, and I hope it is." Commissioner Gennell added,
"I don't think mosquito control should be considered as over and above your normal
operating expenses. I think the mosquito spray pay should be considered as part of your
normal, ordinary operating expenses." Commissioner Gennell then stated, "I don't like
having the public have the impression that we're having to go to extraordinary lengths
and pay excessive overtime fees for something that they are entitled to expect on a
monthly basis, as needed, as a normal routine maintenance in the City."
Commissioner Gennell then remarked that "You have in effect - established a mosquito
spray policy by your budget?" Mr. Kipton D. Lockcuff, P.E., Public Works/Utility
Department Director stated, "Absolutely." Commissioner Gennell added, "I think it's
something we need to look seriously at." Mr. Lockcuff suggested, "I would look to
double it - I think it's $7,000.00, so you may want to look at $14,000.00 or $15,000,00-
and probably $3,000.00 overtime for Public Works and $3,000.00 in Stormwater."
Manager McLemore said to Commissioner Gennell, "You're telling us that you don't
think the current level of spraying is sufficient." Commissioner Gennell responded, "I
think you could say that." Manager McLemore then said, "Staff has got to go back and
within the framework that we have to work with, with the State Agencies, we need to
develop or amend the criteria in such a way that we can build a bigger program."
Commissioner Gennell added, "I would be in favor of Ron, of having Kip [Lockcuff]
come back with something that is a little more intensive within the limits that they can
operate. "
Manager McLemore asked Mr. Lockcuff, "Are we doing any kind of education with
people about mosquito control?" Mr. Lockcuff explained that "In response to complaints
- we will go out and talk to the individuals." Manager McLemore then suggested that
this should be incorporated into the program. Commissioner Gennell added to Manager
McLemore, "You write the newsletter."
"I THINK WE SHOULD LOOK TOWARD THE AERIEAL SPRAYING."
MOTION BY COMMISSIONER BLAKE. COMMISSIONER BLAKE THEN
STATED, "THAT WE LOOK TOWARDS THE AERIAL PROGRAM IF THE
COUNTY DOES THAT." MANAGER McLEMORE SAID, "IN ADDITION TO
THESE OTHER THINGS?" COMMISSIONER BLAKE RESPONDED, "YES."
COMMISSIONER MILLER STATED, "POINT OF CLARIFICATION.
COMMISSIONER BLAKE'S - MOTION WAS THAT WE LOOK TO DO THIS,

Mr. McDonald gave a brief presentation to the Commission.
Much discussion.
Commissioner Miller spoke on a petition with 89 signatures that the City had received,
and suggested that "We ought to really push Lynx now in concert with our good neighbor
policy, maybe of providing them with $13,050.00 as a rider just to say, by the way, we
have a large number of people in our City who are asking for this service."
Commissioner Miller added, "I would like to take a poll of the Commission, and maybe
we would get the Mayor to draft a letter to Lynx to accompany this, just saying, by the
way, it would be nice if you could take a serious look at providing us with bus
transportation along the lines that this petition has requested."
Mr. McDonald advised Mayor Partyka, "You will be invited to participate in a discussion
of this transportation issue to bring forth the Commission's opinions about public transit
in terms of what the policy direction is or how you would like to explore this issue."
Commissioner Martinez returned to the Meeting at 10:27 p,m.
Mayor Partyka stated, "Let the record show Commissioner Martinez is here."
Regarding this proposal, Deputy Mayor McLeod suggested that before we proceed, "I
think we should find out what the cost of that would be, to bring a bus in here. One
would be that particular loop as those folks had asked for and - the other would be to
come up out of - Red Bug, up around through the City. I think Mr. Carrington and you
may need to figure out what - those routes need to be."

Commissioner Blake spoke of his concerns; problems that the City of Oviedo has
experienced; and suggested that "From a Lynx standpoint, I just think we need to be very,
very careful how we implement something like that, what the real costs are, and what is
our exit strategy if we get into it and we're paying money to have empty buses drive
around. "
Commissioner Miller stated, "I would still like to see us go forward with a request for the
Mayor to send in a letter to Lynx. I think we need to take the first step." Commissioner
Miller further stated, "We need to find out what the cost is, and if it is a large number, I
wouldn't support it." Furthermore, Commissioner Miller stated, "People have expressed
an interest in it. I think we should know what it would cost if we wanted to address this
issue seriously, and the only way we are going to do that is by asking Lynx to give us a
proposal. "
Deputy Mayor McLeod spoke about neighboring communities numbers and Pro Rata
share and stated, "I think it is something we definitely need to have them take a strong
look at, and come back to us - I think Ron you just need to bring that back as a separate
item and let us know exactly where we stand on that one,"
Manager McLemore spoke on "The real need of public transportation and who will use
it," and stated that he needs additional information "To get comfortable with what the
need is, what the cost is, and will people even use it." Manager McLemore also
commented on whether we are "Getting what we deserve from gas taxes that should be
supporting this program," and what other communities were doing. Manager McLemore
then stated, "I think I would rather table this ADA matter until the next Meeting. I want
to talk to the other Managers and see what they are doing."
"MOTION TO TABLE THIS UNTIL THE NEXT COMMISSION MEETING."
