Bush, Mayor City of Winter Springs 1126 E. State Road 434 Winter Springs, FL 32708-2799 Dear Mayor Bush: Thank you for your inquiry expressing your desire to explore expediting the annexation of the remaining unincorporated enclaves located within the City of Winter Springs through a new or amended interlocal agreement with the County. The Board of County Commissioners discussed your proposal at its April 14, 2009 meeting. In the past, the Board of County Commissioners has taken the position that we would not require any resident, business, etc. to involuntarily annex into a municipality. At the April 14 meeting, this position was reaffirmed. An alternate would be to model an interlocal agreement consistent with that of the City of Longwood in which, under specific conditions, annexation occurs upon change of ownership. If you wish to pursue this option, please have your staff contact our County Manager, Cindy Coto, to discuss and evaluate the associated benefits and/or implications. Once this process is complete I am confident our respective staffs will advise us as to any viable options identified. Thank you for contacting me in reference to this matter. Since Bob Dallari, Chairman Board of County Commissioners c: Board of Gounty Commissioners Cynthia A. Coto, County Manager Bob McMillan, Gounty Attorney Dori DeBord, Planning and Development Director BD:he 1101 EAST FIRST STREET SANFORD FL 32771-1468 TELEPHONE (407) 665-7219 FAX (407) 665-7958
