Discussion ensued on the references to Fluoride.
Commissioner Michael S. Blake stated, "There seems to be, each year - a continual
difference in the overall quality between the East production and the West production, in
terms of contaminants, minerals, whatever it happens to be on the East Plant from what
we have on the West Plant. Are there steps that we can take or do we have anything in
the plans to do something to clean the water up a little bit more on the East side?"
Discussion ensued with Mr. Doug Taylor, Superintendent, Utility Department.
Commissioner Blake added, "The analysis from the water - the East Plant and the water
from the West Plant - typically has a higher quality in terms of lack of contaminants,
minerals, or solubles or whatever those things are called that are in the water - it always
has been. My question - is what, if any plans, do we have or have we put anything in
place here to start working on the quality of the water on the East side, because I
continually get complaints abut the mineral deposits, the spots, the pipes that continually
break because of the deposits that are in them." Mr. Taylor stated, "We just got a report
done by CPH, Inc, and maybe we ought to see about getting that." Manager McLemore
added, "We will come back to the City Commission with that." Commissioner Blake

Ms. Sahlstrom said, "There were a few things that have been changed since we brought it
to you for the First Reading last time, and the following are the things that were changed.
I noticed that under the 'Highway Commercial', we had neglected to include
'Convenience markets and stores and self-service gasoline sales'; that it's - very much a
'Highway Commercial' use, so we did add that in to the 'C-3' as a Permitted Use.

CITY COMMISSION
REGULAR MEETING - JUNE 28, 2004

The other thing that was changed are the setbacks - for side yards in both the 'Highway
Commercial C-3' and in the '1-1 Light Industrial'. What you had before you last time
showed a side yard setback of fifteen feet (15'), and thinking about that further, Staff
feels that that was excessive for an industrial or a highway commercial site, so we
changed that to a five foot (5') setback except for corner lots which would be a fifteen
foot (15') side yard setback."
Commissioner Blake said, "On setbacks Eloise [Sahlstrom], does that mean that you
couldn't have one warehouse building out to the lot line and have another warehouse
building right next door? There would have to be space between them?" Ms. Sahlstrom
responded, "The setback would require it to be five feet (5 ') from the property line..."
Commissioner Blake added, "... So it would be ten feet (10')..." Ms. Sahlstrom added,
"... So there would be a ten foot (10') space or more between two (2) buildings. Yes."
Deputy Mayor Robert S. Miller spoke next about item "(Qll - Radio and TV
broadcasting studios, excluding towers" and stated, "I know you have 'Excluding towers'
and stated, "You have said no towers, but they have radio dishes all over the place and
antennae and other things. I thought maybe that should be expanded to include satellite
dishes, antennae." Ms. Sahlstrom said, "So you want some expanded language on that?"
Deputy Mayor Miller answered, "I would feel a little bit better more comfortable I think
ifit said antennae, and dishes."
Commissioner McGinnis suggested, "You could just refer to any - transmitting devices,
external to the building." Commissioner Donald A. Gilmore said, "I think what you are
talking about are the big wide - dishes that maybe are ten foot (10') in diameter, but I
certainly would not want to limit anybody." Ms. Sahlstrom said, "We'll look into it."
Mayor Bush added, "I agree - I think he has drawn up a good point by the way - so that
needs some further work."
Mayor Bush stated, "I guess Staff just needs to look at it and maybe working with the
Attorney, see if we are covered in what Commissioner Miller has brought up."

Mr. Javier E. Omana, Vice President of Land Planning Operations, CPH Engineers, Inc.,
1117 East Robinson Street, Orlando, Florida: addressed the City Commission and stated
that regarding "A potential conflict of interest - is something that has been studied by our
firm by the Board of Directors of our firm and I believe has been adequately handled.
We wouldn't have taken on this, Commission - had that particular issue not been
clarified. As it stands right now, CPH Engineers, Inc. will not - be part of any review on
behalf of the City on this particular job, whatsoever."
Commissioner McGinnis inquired, "What is the price range of these townhouses?" Mr.
Omana stated, "My understanding from Morrison Homes is the townhouses will range
from one hundred and fifty (150) to two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000.00) - a unit,
not a building."
Deputy Mayor Miller stated, "You have very short driveways it looks like."
Furthermore, Deputy Mayor Miller added, "It appears from your - depiction of what the
places are going to look like, that some of them are going to be two (2) car garages, and
some are going to be one (1) car garages?" Mr. Oman a responded, "Correct." Deputy
Mayor Miller pointed out that "I am not happy with the number of units that are crammed
in here. If it is a twenty foot (20') driveway, we are going to have this debate again."
Furthermore, Deputy Mayor Miller added, "There is no parking for visitors and I think
your units are - too close to the road."

Manager McLemore stated, "I think the comment is fair to put you on notice - I think
you are on notice that this is an issue." Mr. Omana said, "Very much so." Mr. Romano
added, "These issues that you have intimated were clearly pronounced by Staff and we
have taken notes; we know the Code very well, we need to accommodate those things to
Staffs satisfaction and also to your satisfaction, before the Site Plan is approved."
Discussion.
Attorney Garganese suggested to the City Commission, "If you are going to approve
Multi-Family, you should set a density that you are comfortable with; that you think is
compatible and in harmony with the area."
Mr. Omana stated, "The ninety-nine (99) units may not be reachable because we still
have to go through the Water Management District permitting and the Army Corps of
Engineers." Commissioner David W. McLeod said, "Looking at this elevation, it appears
that - [State Road] 434, you really are not showing us an elevation of what it may look
like from [State Road] 434. You really are showing us an interior elevation."
Commissioner McLeod suggested, "I think the limitations that perhaps this Commission
should put on this is that the maximum would be the 6.6 units per acre, based on what
you presented to us this evening, as your layout and with regards to the Wetlands."
Discussion ensued on elevations, wetlands, and Gateway standards.
Commissioner McGinnis said, "I am comfortable with the density as it is right now." Mr.
Omana stated, "The entire Board and Staff will have, when we come through - and the
Site Plan approval process will have architectural elevations, full landscape plans - for
your review."
Deputy Mayor Miller noted, "I am not comfortable with the number of units."
Furthermore, Deputy Mayor Miller stated, "I would be willing to approve this
Conditional Use for this type of development if it were one-third less than that."
Commissioner McLeod said, "I think the acreage - 6.6 units per acre that you have
requested is reasonable." Discussion.

Attorney Garganese read Ordinance 2004-31 by "Title" only.
Mayor Bush opened the "Public Input" portion o/the Agenda Item.
No one spoke.
Mayor Bush closed the "Public Input" portion o/the Agenda Item.
Attorney Garganese said, "If you go to page 2 of 3 of the Ordinance, I was speaking with
Mr. Baker this evening and he has conducted an analysis of all of the Deed Restrictions
that have come through on PUD's [Planned Unit Developments]; so he is recommending
that front yard minimum setback requirements be fifteen feet (15'), not twenty-five feet
(25'), and also the corner yards - also be fifteen feet (15') minimum setbacks not twenty-
five (25). In addition, the City of Winter Springs - Zero lot line developments which
have Deed Restrictions that are set up accordingly as Zero lot lines.
Tape 2/Side B
Attorney Garganese continued, "We would also propose putting in here that Zero lot line
developments approved by the City Commission shall have minimum setbacks as set
forth in the initial approved documents."
Mayor Bush pointed out that "On page 2 of 3, for front yards and corner yards it would
be fifteen (15), instead of twenty-five feet (25')." Attorney Garganese stated, "Right."
Discussion.
Attorney Garganese said, "We would have a legislative exception for Zero lot lines."
Commissioner Blake said, "Are you suggesting add some additional language in here?"
Attorney Garganese responded, "Yes - probably go right at the end that the minimum
setback requirements for Zero lot lines will be those that are approved by the
Commission during the PUD [Planned Unit Development] approval process, whether
they are in Deed Restrictions or not." Commissioner Blake then inquired, "How would
that be recorded?" Attorney Garganese said, "It is going to be in the Code."
Commissioner Blake then asked, "Would it be required to be on the Plat?"
With discussion, Commissioner Blake said, "If we are going to fix it, let's fix it all the
way." Attorney Garganese said to Mr. Baker, "Is there any way to establish a separate
section here - what the minimum would be on a Zero lot line Development?" Mr. Baker
responded, "I can do further research on that." Attorney Garganese added, "Then we can
just put it right into the Code like we have here, for regular lots. That is what we should
do."

Discussion.
Commissioner McLeod stated, "If a Commission prior to this Commission sat up here
with a Developer's Agreement, then this Commission in my opinion should honor that
Developer's Agreement." Attorney Garganese said, "We could add another exception."
Furthermore, Attorney Garganese added, "In the event there is a Development
Agreement - the Development Agreement will apply in a PUD [Planned Unit
Development] Zoning District, and then we need to go and add some language for Zero
lot lines."
Deputy Mayor Miller then asked, "Are we going to leave this then at twenty-five (25),
ten (10) and five (5), because I think we ought to." Commissioner McGinnis said, "I do
too." Commissioner McLeod added, "I don't disagree with the new. I just think a
Developer's Agreement is a Developer's Agreement, and that should be honored."
Commissioner Blake said, "Send it back to Staff and bring it back for another Reading in
two (2) weeks, with taking into consideration the changes that we have proposed."
Commissioner Blake added, "It would be another First Reading."
