WHEREAS, the City Commission of the City of Winter Springs, Florida, finds that it would be in the best interest of the City of Winter Springs, Florida, to require that measures put to the Planning and Zoning Board of the City of Winter Springs, Florida, be passed by an absolute majority in number of members of the Board in order to avoid an instance where a measure could be approved by the Planning and Zoning Board of the City of Winter Springs, Florida, without an affirmative vote of the majority of the total membership of the Board and WHEREAS, the present manner of removal of members of the Planning and Zoning Board for absences from meetings is deemed unsatisfactory. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA, HEREBY ORDAINS: Section I.

Seats one (1), three (3), and five (5) shall serve a one-year term ending July 10, 1981. Vacancies on the board may be filled by the Commission member whose seat number corresponds with the vacant Planning and Zoning Board seat subject to Commission ratification. If any Commissioner fails to appoint a member within two (2) regularly scheduled Commission meetings after a vacancy occurs or a term expires, that seat will be filled by the Mayor, subject to the ratification by City Commission. Members shall be subject to removal from office by the Commission for failure to perform their duties or other misconduct in office or automatically for failure to attend three (3) meetings within any twelve month period of time. For purposes of removal, an absence from a specially called meeting of the Board shall count the same as an absence from a regularly scheduled meeting. Section II. Section 44.09 of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Winter Springs, Florida, is hereby amended to read as follows: The Planning and Zoning Board shall meet at least once each calendar month at a time set by its members.
