FROM: RE: Agenda Item, Additional Engineering Design for S.R. 434 Entry into Central Winds Park ,- Due to additional requirements established by the Department of Transportation in regards to the proposed entryway to the park at Wagner's Curve, additional engineering will have to be done. Enclosed is the proposed contract. Also enclosed is a proposed alternate to the existing entryway and a memo from Jim Van Ostran. This proposed alternate has been posted to D.O.T. for their review. If, the City can work out all the details satisfactorily, this could result in a savings of approximately $40,000. Mr. Van Ostran will be present for the meeting to answer your questions. jfg enc. cc: Mayor Commission City Attorney City Clerk / ,/ :./ ~. ..L ...- /91 TUE 9:0e;. P.02 ,/" .' / / ~OItH 11.

After a meetil1CJ with City staff, Don lBBlanc suggested that we totally relQ('~te the curve south of the existirq curve and maintain traffic on the existing roadWay until it could be shifted over to the new road (we have anclOSE.'d ~ preliminary drawing of same). We examined that idea. 'lhts concept eliminates the need for wilding a temporary roadwaY for ma:i.ntenance of traffic (a requirement of Florida Department of Tt"an..~portation) ard then tearing the roadway out after the new road is constructed. '!his reduces construction cost $ 40,000 - $ 50,000 (not inclUding right--.of-way costs) . 'Ih is concepts' success deperds on three i tams: 1. '!he Florida Depart:l'nent of Transportation agreeing to the design (we feel that this is likely). 2. Mr. Keen working out an agreement with the city of winter Sprirqs for the road right-of~y. 3. 'It\e Florida Depart:l'nent of Transportation being willirq to revert the right-Of-way back to Mr. Keen at the time the New Florida Department of Transportation Bypass Project is constructed (1995- 1996). Page Two Winter Springs city Conunission Members June 3, 1991 other i terns which may still be deba.ted on which could lower costs somewhat are as follows: 1. Reduce the asphalt from 3 1/4" down to 2" saving approximately $ 7500 +/-. The Florida Department of TransPJrtation's design, a 10 year road design on a projected 8 year traffic count is an over design for the life of this roadway. since the road will be used only as a park entrance after 1996. A 1999 traffic count and a 2001 road design is beyond. what is needed. If the Florida Department of Transportation would allow the 2" pavement and we found that before 1996 the pavement was not holding up, the City could resurface with an additional 1" at that time. 2. Reduce the roadway speed limit to 35 mph thereby reducing the taper length by 200 feet. This produces a savings of $ 7000 +/-. A reduced speed limit 1000 feet before and after the curve is a very inexpensive way to make the curve safer and to save around $ 7000. 3. since the new design maintains traffic on the old road this eliminates the requirement for a maintenance of traffic plan- savings $ 1300. - Should you have any questions on the above, please do not hesitate to call. ~ johlt Ii.

ISO-unit Guest Cottaae Proposal City Attorney Frank Kruppenbacher addressed the Board. Kruppenbacher stated he had received a request from the City Manager to render a legal opinion on the proposed development. He performed a comprehensive background check into all related matters, including the Imara decision, to ensure the City acts consistently with previous actions. Kruppenbacher stated he had a conversation with James Mikes of Florida Country Clubs Inc. (the owner of Tuscawilla Country Club) at 5:15 today in which Kruppenbacher noted he had concerns regarding a vested right to develop this project. He believed it would be prudent to meet with the City Manager and City staff to clarify his various concerns. Kruppenbacher said he was immediately advised by Mikes to give an opinion so Mikes could sue the City tomorrow. Kruppenbacher advised the Board to take no action at this time until he can consult with his client, the formal City Commission, and consult with experts within his firm to make sure everyone is handling this issue properly. Kruppenbacher recommended to the Board to defer this discussion. Ferring requested Kruppenbacher to forward copies of the Imara decision to the members of the Board. McLeod requested Kruppenbacher verbally highlight the decision so the Board has some base to work from. Kruppenbacher stated there was an original final judgement which resulted from the case being heard on November 21 and 22, 1985. The court found in Paragraph 1 that a preliminary development plan was approved by the City in 1971 and was currently in effect for the property. The second finding was under that PUD plan, the court found that the parcels of real ,property owned by Imara planned for development were designated for condominium use development.

S.R. 434 Winter Springs, FL 32701 Re: Development 01' a portion 01' the 244 acres owned by Florida Country Clubs, Inc. in the Tuscawilla PU D Dear Mayor Kulbes: - Historically, land use in the Tuscawilla PU 0 haS been the subject of much misunderstanding and contl'oversy. The pl'Oposed use by Florida Country Clubs, Inc. ("FCC") is no exception. This letter is inlended to clarify lhe si tuation. In 1971, the Tuscawilla development was annexed into the City and a PU D plan adopted as part ot' the annexation. With the exception 01' changes to portions ot' the plan tor specific parcels now developed, the 1971 plan stands in lact today since no subsequent plan was ever adopted. FCC owns 244 acres which includes 190 acres tor 1I1e Tuscawilla Country Club. The 54 remaining acres are vacant and not used. FCC acquiI'ed the land in September, 1987. Prior to closing, I did my due diligence at the City concerning the land use and zoning applicable to the entir'e 244 acr'es. 1 was intormed of the 1971 annexation and the plan. I was not advised of any SUbsequent I legally adopted amendment of the plan which aft'ected the uses on FCC's properly. At that time, I confirmed that the 1971 plan as applied to FCC's property included eight acres 01' condominiums at twelve units per acre on our 8th tee on Winter Spl'ings Boulevard and the 14th green on Northern Way and ten acres 01' guest cottages at fifteen units LO the acre near [tie clubhouse al'ea. In 1985, two years pl'ior to FCC's acquisition of IIle l44 acres, a local court confirmed the validity of the L~71 plan. In panicular', it found that the condominium designations on the plan are valid and such parcels are developable at twelve units per acre (or 48 units on each of FCC's lour acre condominium pJrcels). No specific mention was made by the coun concerning FCC's clubhouse area. In 1989 and 1990, the issue ot' land use was again debated in the CilY'S litig'ation with Gultstl'eam. As the court records retlect, the City confirmed the right to ten acres of guest cottages al fifteen units per acre. - Since early 1988, I tlave been meeting with the r'epl'esentatives or Tuscawilla homeowners association to arl'ive al a plan for the use of our extra land which can 1500 Winter Springs Boulevard. Winter Springs. Florida 32708. 407-366-1851 - Mayor Phil Kulbes May 16, 1991 Page 2 accommodate FCC's economic interests and not adversely affect the surrounding homeowners. Many proposals have been made by FCC to the homeowners, but there has been no "official" confirmation fl'Om the HOA of their desir'es. During the same period of discussion with the homeowners, I have continually keep the City'S staff advised of our "progress" (or lack of it) and have developed a better undel'standing of the staff's posi tion. In order to make certain we develop consistent wi Lt1 the original 1971 PU D plan, we retained the same planning firm which did the 1971 plan and which participated in the Gulfstream settlement. They have pl'epared plans which are consistent with both the 1971 plan and the confirmed zoning in the GuUstream set llement. Several months ago, we submitted to staff a plan for the 150 guest cottages as permitted by the 1971 plan. We did not at that time submit a plan for the 96 condo units on our other parcels, however, the plans for those parcels will be submitted next week tor final plan approval. Our interest in developing the 96 units is not as keen as tile 150 units, and the 96 units are negotiable. The staft' has met with us several times (and the City attoI'ney has been involved in several of the meetings) on the guest cottage land plan. They have now deferred to the P&Z and City Council 1'01' guidance. We have had recent conver'sations with Mr. Khemlani as the representative of' a large group of the Tuscawilla homeowners. He has expressed opinions of a number of' the homeowners. Based on discussions with MI'. Khemlani, we Cll'e willing to incorporate into our plan if approved by the City Council, the f'ollowing conditions: o We will use the 150 units (with an average size of 1100 to 1200 square f'eet) as luxury apartments. The units will be designed tor potential f'uture convel'sation to condominium. o We will not pUl'sue any other residential uses on OUI' land over the 150 units, specifically releasing any l'igllts to the 96 conclominium units on Holes 8 and 14. We will eventually seek permits to build anOUlel' 9 golf holes for a total of 27 holes, but that will not be addressed at this time. o The units will be luxury in natur'e and consistent with the look of our clubhouse. o We will build the new pool/tennis before dbmdntling the old facilities. o We will commit to intense landscaping and a beautiful roadway and entrance treatment, including a brick and wruugllt il'On perimeter fence on Winter Springs Boulevard. We will also re-landscape the islands in the l'Oadway. - Although some homeownel's may 110pe we will go away i:lndnot press our legalr'ight to develop our property, we will not. We al'e prepared wi I II financing to immediately develop the guest cottage pal'cel. Should we be delayed by the Ci ty or homeowner's, we - Mayor Phil Kulbes May 16, 1991 Page 3 will incur signiticant damages for which we will seek appropriate compensation from the party at fault. The issue must be addressed immediately and the City must take its position to either assist in or prevent OUI' development so that we can proceed in the appropria te manner. I will be pleased to meet with the City'S designated representatives to work out a compromise consistent with what I stated above.
