REQUEST: The Community Development Department — Planning Division and the City
Attorney request that the City Commission hold a First Reading and Public Hearing for Ordinance
2010 -09, which abolishes the Board of Adjustment and provides for its responsibilities to be
reallocated to the Planning and Zoning Board.
SYNOPSIS: This agenda item furthers the City Commission's directive resulting from the City
Commission workshop held on February 1, 2010, to abolish the Board of Adjustment and provide for
its responsibilities to be reallocated to the Planning and Zoning Board.
CONSIDERATIONS:
APPLICABLE LAW, PUBLIC POLICY, AND EVENTS
Section 2(b), Article VIII, of the State Constitution regarding Home RulePowers
Winter Springs Charter Section 4.15 Ordinances in General.
Winter Springs Code of Ordinances
FINDINGS
The City recognizes that the Board of Adjustment has taken their responsibility in the review of
waivers, variances, special exceptions, and administrative appeals very seriously and that the Board's
recommendations to the City Commission have been derived only after a thorough review of the
facts as they relate to the review criteria stipulated in the Code. As a result, the City Commission is
indebted to the Board of Adjustment for years of faithful service to the City.
However, with the advent of the development agreement, there are increasingly fewer applications
for waivers, variances, special exceptions, and administrative appeals. As a result, there are fewer
meetings of the Board of Adjustment and the demand for these services could be absorbed into and
provided by the Planning and Zoning Board.
Therefore, after considering these factors at a recent workshop reviewing the responsibilities of each
of the City's boards and committees, the City Commission determined and directed the consolidation
of the Board of Adjustment duties in with the duties of the Planning and Zoning Board resulting in
greater governmental efficiency and a more streamlined process. It was also determined that the
duties performed by the Board of Adjustment would not be compromised by the consolidation of

their duties into the Planning and Zoning Board.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Elimination of the Board of Adjustment will reduce City expenses particularly related to the City
