or an alternative rate the Commission deems appropriate and adoption of same, and
relative to the adoption of the s~cond reading of Ordinance No. 705 establishing the Final
Budget for Fiscal Year 1998-1999.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this agenda item is to have the Commission approve Resolution
No. 866 establishing the Final Millage Rate at 3.600 mils or an alternative rate the Commission
deems appropriate.
CONSIDERATIONS:
The actions requested in this agenda item are necessary to comply with the Truth in
Millage Act and to approve desired changes to the budget subsequent to the Budget Workshops.
The Commission can reduce the millage further at the final budget hearing scheduled for
September 28, 1998.
On July 6, 1998 the Commission established the proposed millage rate at 3.6000 mils.

Following are three reasons for giving careful considerations to leaving the millage at
3.6000 mils.
1. Attached are tables demonstrating that Winter Springs receives less General Fund
Revenues per-capita than any other City in Seminole County, has the lowest per-capita
rate of expenditures of any Seminole County City and has the lowest millage of any City
in Seminole County.
2. We need to begin establishing revenue to offset the cost we have for the additional
eight police officers the City has employed,
3. The Commission noted a desire to set aside some additional funds for making
improvements to our comprehensive plan. The revenue from property taxes shown in
your budget is based upon the millage rate being set at 3.5495 mils. Ifwe leave the
millage rate at the current 3.600 mils an additional $45,648 will be generated that we
could budget for improvements to the comprehensive plan.
