d) Update from Glickman referencingfuture solicitationfrom map company:
Glickman stated that two years ago a map company approached the mayor (Kulbes) about doing a
map of the city of Winter Springs. Ads are solicited to local merchants to pay for the cost of the
brochure. The city supplies the map and pictures. Last time, the map (brochure) was done in two
or three colors with the pictures in black ink, but is now in full color. The only cost to the city would
be the mailing expenses. Lup said he would send a cover letter along with the packet to John
Govoruhk.
This map could also go with the C.I.D. Board brochure to people inquiring about the city.

Lup said he received a letter from a man in New York asking for a Winter Springs business guide.
