Then, add trees gradually. Discussion. Commissioner Jacobs said the Board should have a budget. He said we need to identify the projects we want to do, the time it will take to do them, the cost of doing them, and when they will be done. Then turn this information in to the City Manager, and he will recommend the department that will do it. The Commission will have to approve the budget. He said if the Board gets a budget, and a one, two and three year plan, he will present it to the City Manager. The budget sessions will be in August and September, so the City Manager will have to see it before that. Discussion. There was discussion about the welcome to the cities signs on 434 which are too close together and are confusing. Commissioner Jacobs said he would ask Mayor Grove to contact the Mayor of Casselberry to see if they can work something out. Discussion of Winter Springs Elementary School property: Mrs. Brown said she spoke with Mrs. MacNamara, who said there is no money available. Commissioner Jacobs offered to call Superintendent Hughes to ask him what we should do. Mrs. Brown said they now have a beautification committee at the School. She said the new Principal is already working on the sprinklers. He now knows that the property between the fence and the sidewalk is his property, and he will keep it mowed and keep the trash picked up. Update on Casselberry property: Commissioner Jacobs said he believes that the property under the power line easement belongs to the golf course. Commissioner Partyka suggested getting planners, developers, etc. involved, and have everybody come up with a plan everyone would agree on, then get a professional planner and plan it out, and make any needed changes.
