Manager McLemore said, "My question to you is to - both parties here, do they need to
come back for this review again or can they go ahead with this direction from you and go
to their final drawings?" Commissioner McGinnis stated, "Yes." Commissioner Krebs
remarked, "Yes, and a blessing from Victor Dover." Manager McLemore said, "Right."
No objections were voiced.
Mayor Bush pointed out, "So, you do not need to come back for Aesthetic Review - on
the Balcony issue."
Mr. Tullos commented that "We said we would do ten (10), I didn't think we had a
disparity in the elevation." Manager McLemore stated, "Okay - they're giving you the
option to bring it back if you want to, with those elevations." Mayor Bush remarked, "So
with that caveat, it has passed the Aesthetic Review. Commissioners, you would agree?"
No objections were noted.

Requests That The Commission Hold A Public Hearing For The Conceptual Review

This Agenda Item was presented for discussion by Mr. Baker.
Commissioner Gilmore remarked, "We have no Site Plans; nothing was handed to us. I
don't know how many times we have asked for a Site Plan of the entire Town Center."
Commissioner Gilmore added, "I don't even think we should be looking at this building
without all of the information available to us ahead of time, rather than sitting here and
doing this on a map that is up here on the wall or a drawing. It means nothing to me. I
look at this and I don't see where this is in relation to Tuskawilla Road, Lake Jesup,
[State Road] 434 or anything else." Commissioner Gilmore added, "We go through this
every time and it makes life difficult for us and we have talked about it, and we are back
doing the same thing again, tonight. We need this stuff to study it." Commissioner
Gilmore then noted, "Where is the parking? I didn't see anything in here." All I see is
that drawing and a floor plan - we should be getting more information."

Deputy Mayor Blake asked, "There is nothing above those planters?" Mr. Travis stated,
"There is nothing above the planters." Furthermore, Mr. Travis said, "To go back to talk
about variation of balconies - this is the balcony that will extend out so you have that on
the first floor. You will have an uncovered balcony area on the second floor and then as
you go up in the building, it becomes less in dimension. There is a large balcony on that
comer; there is a different variation of balcony on that comer; and as you will see on the
second floor of this balcony, it actually has an inset balcony and then the comer within
the same unit has that Juliette balcony. So you actually get two (2) balconies within that
one (1) unit."
Discussion.
Parking was discussed next, to which Mr. Brian Fields, P.E., City Engineer, Public
Works Department stated, "At this time, we still don't feel very confident that there is
adequate parking, even under the shared concept to serve both buildings 17 and 4, at least
in terms of residential components." Mayor Bush said, "If Staff doesn't think it is
enough, I guarantee you the Commission won't think it is enough. Staff, have you told
them that - there is no way it is going to fly?" Mr. Tullos stated, "They have not told us
there's no way it is going to fly."
Manager McLemore suggested to the City Commission, "Give them your comments so
that when they come back with a - final Conceptual review in this case, they can
incorporate those comments and move this thing along."
Commissioner Gilmore said, "When you come back, I have questions as to how this
residential unit fits in to the - concept of the Town Center; what it does in terms of
commercial space versus residential space."

Commissioner Miller suggested, "1 think the City Manager, if we can get a Consensus -
he needs to bring back this information that he has mentioned four (4) or five (5) times
now - Charette, Charette, Charette. 1 keep hearing it; and it is in the Town Plan and you
can go in and look at it. The criticism 1 have of that document right now is that it is
obsolete, and 1 would like to see an upgraded one and - developed maybe by Victor
Dover or somebody that actually shows the development on all four (4) comers of
Tuskawilla - [Road] and [State Road] 434." Commissioner Gilmore added, "The whole
Town Center should be on one (1) disc."
Mayor Bush asked the City Commission, "Commissioner Miller has asked for a
Consensus on this which is providing a more comprehensive view?" Commissioner
McGinnis said, "That is fine." Commissioner Krebs remarked, "Yes." With no
objections, Mayor Bush said to Manager McLemore, "Can we do that Mr. McLemore?"
Manager McLemore responded, "That is not a problem."
Commissioner McGinnis noted, "We call this our Town Center. We should always say
Phase 1. There should be a sign out there - Winter Springs Town Center Phase 1."
Commissioner McGinnis added, "Maybe we need to put a Phase 1 sign out there; or now
it is going to be Phase II." Manager McLemore stated, "As far as showing you the street
layout, and then what has been approved, how that should fit on that layout, we can do all
that, that is not the problem. That's easy. We can do all of that. We just can't tell you
what the buildings are going to look like, nor what the uses are going to be in them."
Commissioner Krebs remarked, "My comment - going by Staff recommendations and
wanting our comments, what 1 would be looking at would be the parking - and the shared
space and what - commercial properties we would be sharing space with. My concern is
parking."
