Smith, "The question regarding conducting landowner meetings where we would I guess Mr. Tomerlin's point was -one of the next steps is for us to sit down with the landowners -that is possibly a new process or maybe an on-going process but do you have any beginnings to envision of how we would go about doing that."

Continuing with his presentation and comments, Mr. Alexander noted, "We have already prepared a `[Preliminary] Cash Flow Analysis'. I have just given this to Michelle (Greco, Director, Finance Department) - when I walked in the building today. The `[Preliminary] Cash Flow Analysis' is a detailed analysis of all the Funds of the City." Mr. Alexander added, "This is an attempt to start to develop Investment strategies for short-term Funds versus long-term Funds, so that we kind of get away from the idea that we have all the Funds invested the exact same way. Okay? I want to get to the point where we can make use of your longer term assets and obtain a better rate of return while the short term assets are being invested to make sure all your obligations are being paid, so that's really kind of the end-game that we want to get to, in establishing these multi-strategies for your short-term assets. And, the `[Preliminary] Cash Flow Analysis' that has just been presented to Michelle (Greco) -she will need to get with Kevin (Smith) and we'll kind of go through it so that we can start fine-tuning it. This is just a preliminary draft of this. There are going to be Funds that we will need to eliminate from the Analysis because they are not part of the process." Furthermore, Mr. Alexander mentioned incorporating "Reporting mechanism to you so that we set up reports so that you're properly informed on a regular basis of the Investments." Commissioner Bonner asked Manager Smith, "Don't we have some short term investments that we are going to probably have to reinvest until Mr. Alexander's plan is ready to be executed?" Manager Smith said, "Yes Sir. We are up against a `CDARS' (Certificate Of Deposit Account Registry Services) maturity this Thursday and second maturity the following Thursday." Manager Smith then explained, "I spoke with Steven (Alexander) briefly and I will let him speak to this, but I think his recommendation is to roll that yet one (1) more time for a thirty (30) day period, both the maturities and that we move forward with this implementation strategy." Mr. Alexander agreed and stated, "Yes." CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING -FEBRUARY 9, 2009 PAGE 4 OF 28 Additionally, Mr. Alexander noted, "Our recommendation at this point would be to repeal the Resolution that limited it to just three (3) Investments. This was Resolution 2008-56." Furthermore, Mr. Alexander suggested, "We should repeal that; revert back to the original City Investment Policy so that we have multiple securities available to us." City Attorney Anthony A. Garganese noted, "That Resolution would be repealed at the same time that you are Adopting the modified -long term Investment Policy that Steven (Alexander) has put together." Continuing, Attorney Garganese suggested, "If you would just authorize one (1) additional rollover -until you adopt the new Investment Policy." "I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE THAT MOTION." MOTION BY DEPUTY MAYOR KREBS. SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER BROWN. DISCUSSION. MAYOR BUSH NOTED, "THE MOTION IS TO DO THE ONE (1) ROLL- OVER."

That has not been executed and delivered to the City. So, the City has acted on a previous Zoning Application. My understanding of reading Mr. Phillips' letter is that he wants a different Re-Zoning for the property and the Commission can certainly do that but there is an Application process and a Public Notice process that would have to be complied with; so the Commission can properly act on that request." Mr. Bart Phillips, 212 Morton Lane, Winter Springs, Florida: stated, "We did not sign that because only being able to use it for `C-1' plus the storage. And, basically, when we went through our negotiations, we were talking about `C-2' plus the storage. So, we are waiting for the `C-2' Zoning. That is why it hasn't been signed and executed." Furthermore, Mr. Phillips noted, "What we went through prior was supposed to be `C-2' with the special usage of the storage but it came through as `C-1' with the special usage. So, I did not execute that `C-1' usage and limitation on that property because that's not what I came in front of you before for." Attorney Garganese said, "I can go back and look at that." Mr. Phillips added, "We're agreeing to all the limitations on the property, but we would like to have the `C-2' usage on the property - on all the property there."

Mayor Bush suggested that "I think we should be looking at decentralization of some items that as I think Commissioner Brown was alluding to that we could take them over and they would reduce the tax burden on our citizens so that we are not being double taxed..." Deputy Mayor Krebs noted, "...That is a good idea..." Mayor Bush continued, "...For instance, Stormwater." Commissioner Brown suggested a Resolution be passed to not support County consolidation efforts. With further discussion, Commissioner McGinnis suggested "Start making your list Mayor."
