CITY ATTORNEY'S REPORT:
Attorney Kruppenbacher introduced Attorney Pete Winder, Senior Litigation Council of Carlton
Fields in the Tampa Office and Attorney Charlie Cassavivi, Manager Partner of the Orlando Office
of Carlton Fields Law Firm. Attorney Kruppenbacher said as discussed earlier (and review this with
the City Manager) the standard rates for these lawyers are upwards of $245 and higher and said they
have negotiated the top rate for their lead lawyers to be no more than $200 per hour and for any
lawyer who normally bills below $200, whatever that regular rate is. The anticipated budget that they
have come up with right now based upon handling the declaratory judgement action that we want to
file in Seminole County, the water action that we want to deal with in Seminole County and the
matter pending in Tampa regarding the motion to remove and bring the matter back over to Seminole
County; to be somewhere in the 70 to 90 thousand dollar figure for all of that litigation. That is based
upon what is readily available right now, that would be to do all discovery, all legal filings, the briefs,
etc. Each of you (with the exclusion of one Commissioner) have received, been served with or are
notice now that you will be served with notices of depositions. You would be meeting with the
Attorneys from Carlton to prepare yourself for those depositions, additionally, if you decide to
continue forward with them, they have asked if the Commission could schedule a litigation meeting,
a closed meeting, where they would talk with the Commission. The people at that meeting, (at this
Regular Meeting City Commission

point) would be: City Manager McLemore, Mayor Partyka, Commissioners: Conniff, Blake,
Langellotti, Gennell, McLeod, a Court Reporter, Mr. Cassivivi, Mr. Winders and Mr. Graves who
is a land use expert Attorney in their office.
Attorney Wmders stated there, as the Commission knows, has been a cross claim filed in Hillsborough
County, and we feel and are prepared to file a motion tomorrow to dismiss that action, that cross
claim on the grounds that the City has a privilege to be sued in Seminole County. It is a very strong
and long standing policy in Florida, public policy, that a City should not be spread all over the State
defending itself and you have a privilege here. The idea here that there a allegation in that foreclosure
action where the cross claim originates, that the City may claim an interest in the property by virtue
of the Settlement Agreement that exists as a matter of record over here (Seminole County) the City
answered and simply left it up to the Court. The idea that that would be a waiver of a sub stant right
to transfer, to have the major piece oflitigation that would interfere with the business of the City, if
held over there, is very remote and that is not what that policy is for; the policy protects the City and
the taxpayers and the interest of the City with having it here and we feel very strongly that is what
will happen. Attorney Winders stated that he can't guarantee, but feels it is a very strong and well
established public policy and they want to file that immediately.
Attorney Wmders also stated that Judge Benson in the settlement agreement, retained jurisdiction to
decide questions about the settlement agreement in his order approving it and we would like
tomorrow to also file something in his court asking that he take jurisdiction and handle that over here.
Attorney Winders gave an overview of his firm and stated that they would feel honored to accept the
City employment.
Discussion. Attorney Kruppenbacher said that the Commission needs to make a motion to retain the
law firm of Carlton Fields pursuant to the representations made to the Commission tonight and to
schedule a litigation meeting for a time certain and said he would anticipate that meeting would run
no longer than three hours.

1. City Manager - Ronald W. McLemore:
Manager McLemore said he received a complaint (at the last meeting) regarding Moss Road,
Flamingo Road, Hacienda Village area, drainage. Manager McLemore stated he has talked about this
with the Public WorkslUtility Director Kip Lockcuff and it involves some work that was in the City's
plan two years from now for construction. Manager McLemore said he has asked Mr. Lockcuffto
start the design and permitting on that project to be brought up in the budget to next fiscal year.
Manager McLemore said prior Commissions had stated that they did not want us to respond to
Legislative Alerts relative to legislation being offered to let the larger entities and organizations such
as the League of Cities, take care of those issues for us; as a rule he does not respond to those nor
bring them in front of the Commission. The dilemma that we had is that we get those either a day or
even an hour before the committee votes and they want you to move right then to make your
legislative delegate or committee aware of your position. Manager McLemore said that as the
Commission meets every other week, it is impossible for him to get the Commissions approval,
however there is one issue going through the Legislature right now and as a Manager he would like
to join with other City Managers in the State to make a statement about a bill that is going to the
legislature on Police and Fire Retirement Plans, which would continue to escalate the cost beyond
anyone's means to be able to afford; this is not a statement against Police and Fire, as we are working
