Dear Mr. Steven T. Richart,
I am writing to you concerning the wooden and concrete fence along Tuskawilla Road
near the intersection of Tuskawilla Road and Trotwood Boulevard. We moved to Tuscawilla in
May 2000. We have been pleased with the many renovations so far! Hurricane Charley last
August finally demolished the wooden part of the fence along Tuskawilla Road. It looks bad. I
realize not everything can be fixed at once but I certainly hope this eye sore will not be ignored
for long. I realize that the residents in my part of Tuscawilla are not a private homeowners
association and we are not heard from often but my husband and I have been voluntary members
of the THOA. We care about the appearance of our neighborhood. We vote. Thank you for your
time.
Sincerely,
Mrs. David Ward

Subject: Tuscawilla Fence @ Trotwood
Dear Sirs:
As a long time resident of Tuscawilla, I am writing to express my continued concern about the
appearance of the wooden and concrete fence by the southeastern part of our entrance at Trotwood
Blvd. I have called several time, and was told it was under discussion. Well, I just received a letter that
said there was a projected estimate of EIGHT YEARS to get this eyesore fixed! It is a blight on our
community. Oakforest, right across the street, has a beautiful wall, making ours stand out more in its
state of deterioration! Clearly, we want the respect our community deserves. I am not against the
lighting project, I just think its like wearing a beautiful dress under an ugly wore dirty coat! What people
see as they drive down Tuscawilla, is how they view the entire community.
Thank you for your efforts,
Dave & Karen Tibbets

Subject: RE: TLBD Resolution/ length of proposed wall
Dear Mr. Richart,
As you can see, Peter & Patty Condon forwarded on to me your correspondence regarding extending the wall along
Tuskawilla Road from the end of my property to the Florida Power easement at the end of theirs.
Please help me understand why the wall would be outside the scope of the TLBD assessment district. The purpose of the
wall is to make the area along Tuskawilla Road approaching the Trotwood Blvd. entrance to Tuscawilla more beautiful,
upscale, and at least as attractive as the opposite side of the road and the entrance to Oak Forest. The Oak Forest wall
and landscaping make it look like the more upscale community than Tuscawilla. It seems to me that this is EXACTLY the
purpose of the TLBD. In fact, when we presented this proposal to the TLBD just prior to construction of Phase 1, we
were told it would have been done in the first phase if the lawsuit had not eaten up the reserve money built into that
project.
I don't really care that much about whether the wall is done through the TLBD or the City itself--I just want to see it
done. It just seems to me, as I have stated, that the TLBD is an appropriate entity. Now, if the second phase is totally
funded and the projects there do not leave room for it at this time, then certainly I want to see the City consider it so that
the project is accomplished as quickly as possible, preferably within the next 6 months.
I appreciate your help in this matter and will look forvvard to receiving your reply.
Sincerely,
Thomas E. (Ted) Doss III

Subject: brick wall at Trotwood entrance
As a resident of the Tuscawilla Country Club area I have been embarrassed and appalled by the horrible
appearance at the entrance to our particular area. It seems that we were completely forgotten when this brick
wall was being erected. I was delighted as I watched long stretches of the new wall being erected along
Tuscawilla, and could never have imagined that the short stretch of wall at our entrance wouldn't be part of this
project.
I recall finally seeing a load of bricks and supplies at the entranceway and was certain that this meant it would
finally look great like all of the rest of this area. Instead, it was meant only for the immediate entrance and not the
extension of the wall. What a disappointment! This certainly detracts from the overall impression of our beautiful
area and now that the old fence is literally falling apart it looks like a poor and depressed area. To say that we are
in the middle of a beautification project is quite laughable especially to those of us who live in the immediate area
behind this wall and to those many families who take advantage of our park and those who go to the parking lot at
the park to await their children after school. Many people use this entrance as I am sure you know.
I implore you to give this situation serious positive consideration as it is such an eyesore, ablack-eye for our
community, and also constitutes a security danger especially for those residents whose homes back up to
Tuscawilla. Surely, this could be accomplished in a relatively short time period without an inordinate time period
going by while it is being studied, anticipated, voted on, objected to, rehashed, etc. It is such an obvious need and
should no longer be overlooked.
Sincerely yours,

Steven:
I have read the several a-mails on this subject and let me offer this.
Several years ago when I was chairman of the TLBD someone came before us and asked
about whether the TLBD could replace the wall and as I remember it, we told them that
the TLBD could really do anything within Tuscawilla that the residents wanted and were
willing to pay for, but that it would take a vote of the people and the agreement from the
city commission. We said appropriate charging would need to be set up etc. This has
been done in the case of the Oak Forest wall. The difficult problem here, as with the Oak
Forrest wall is that it is on private property and trying to get the residents within the PUD
to buy into replacing a wall on private property may be a challenge.
For a little feed back as to why we replaced the wall on the south east corner, as I
remember it, we wanted to put the entry feature there, and needed and easement from the
property owners and wanted the wall to blend in with the entry feature, so made the
agreement to do the wall on that property for the easement.
This is all from memory so is subject to error

Subject: TLBD Resolution/ length of proposed wall
Dear Steven,
At the September TLBD meeting there was a
question about the length of the proposed brick wall
extention at the Trotwood entrance to Tuscawilla. My
husband and I measured 510 ft from the end of the
current wall to the beginning of the Florida Power
Easement.
As to the resolution that was passed by the TLBD
Advisory Board regarding the construction of a wall,
when do you expect to hear back from the City Manager?

Subject: Trotwood Entrance
Mr. Richart,
I wanted to attend the meeting last night but was not notified before I had scheduled a prior
commitment that prevented my attendance.
My name is Annette Pursley. We bought our home at 735 Sybilwood Circle in August of 1987. We
plan to live there for a lot longer also. We love the neighborhood and the city and have an 8th
grader who wants to attend Winter Spings High School.
I am very interested in improving the wall along Tuscawilla Road at our entrance. We have
supported all efforts of the Tuscawilla Lighting and Beautification District.
I just feel that our entrance has been left out of the upgrades to our community. All subdivisions
along the road have been afforded beautiful brick walls. I realize that most of Tuscawilla has also
along with a grand front entrance.
I would just like to see our part of Tuscawilla afforded the same great look. Nothing particularly
fancy, but a continuation of the wall that is already there would be wonderful.
Thank you for your consideration,
Annette Pursley

Steven Richart,
I understand you are the Urban Beautification Manager of Winter Springs and perhaps my request should be addressed to
you. I have been a Tuscawilla resident for over 20 years now and take pride in my community. I am a supporter of the
Tuscawilla Lighting and Beautification Project, but am very concerned that Tuscawilla has not erected a new fence or a
wall along Tuscawilla Road near the intersection of Trotwood and Tuscawilla. I would appreciate your assistance in
getting this accomplished in the very near future.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Hi Steven:
There are four houses on Sybilwood that would be enhanced.
The current fences are 15/18 feet set back from their back property line (judging by the brick fence that the TLBD put up
The proposed 6 foot brick fence would be approximately 580 feet in length.

We live at 725 Sybilwood Circle, my name is Carol Ferguson. When phase I of the Tuscawilla lighting &
Beautification was complete, I was appalled to see that nothing had been done to the "eyesore" of a fence along
Tuscawilla Rd. just south of the Trotwood entrance. It was the one thing in Tuscawilla that truely needed
beautification. As residents living on Sybilwood Circle, we feel that to date we've had no beautification of our area
except some brick at the Trotwood entrance. With phase II there is no mention of any Sybilwood Circle work to
be done yet you you certainly are using our money. Please please pleaseif you take our hard earned
money at least use it in a way that benefits us. Fix that attrocity or what remains of it after last years storms.
To bypass it again will prove what we've felt all along which is that the Tuscawilla Lighting & Beautification is only
in existence to benefit a few but lay the cost on everyone. It's shameful.

Steve and Gary,
I have spoken to Lisa Jewell, Outdoor Lighting Perspectives. She would be happy to meet with you and I and
Gary on Tuesday morning, October 25 at 9:00 at the front entry to discuss holiday lighting. She needs to know
what we have in the way of power supply and also what lights we presently have. I told her I did not think we
would be interested in figures or props, just lighting/ wreathes, etc. If this time and date is not going to work with
you and Gary, we need to let her know Thursday morning of another date. Her cell phone is 1-321-266-8705.
I called several companies. Others only sell the material or are booked up
See you tomorrow evening. I trust we have a quorum.

Hello Richard..
It has been some time, but I hope this note finds you well.
I am pretty sure you are the one to talk to, if not if you would be kind enough to
send
me in the right direction I would appreciate it!!
The median strip landscaping outside the entrances to Chestnut Estates subdivision
has grown
so much because of all the rain, that it is becoming very difficult to see oncoming
traffic when pulling out.
We fear it may cause an accident.
We would be most appreciative if it could be trimmed down a bit to keep the area
safer.
It looks great, just a little dangerous!!
Thank you in advance, we appreciate it

Tuscawilla Pioneer Garden Club
The purpose of Luminaria is to "Light-Up Tuscawilla in a Path of Friendship".
Tuscawilla Pioneer Garden Club introduced this wonderful community tradition to
Tuscawilla on Christmas Eve of 1976.
As time went by, the Garden Club assisted other communities in establishing
their own tradition. Many of these communities, such as Heathrow, choose to
light their Luminaria prior to Christmas Eve. They established the Sunday
evening the week before Christmas as their community's night to display.
These communities turned the selected evening into a Neighborhood
Appreciation Night beginning at dusk. They set up fire pits in driveways with
chairs about, serve cider, coffee, or hot chocolate, and other specialties. One
resident will make funnel cakes, another serves popcorn, etc. As years have
gone by, this has grown to where tables line the neighborhood's driveways.
These Appreciation Nights celebrations then became known in other of the
area's communities.
Several areas within Tuscawilla already display Luminaria, as a neighborhood,
prior to Christmas Eve. Some unite to light up their neighborhood with
Luminaria, then band together in a neighborhood holiday party another area
sings carols house-to-house with their neighbors ending with a cookies and hot
chocolate get-together.
Last year, the Garden Club was approached by a community near Tuscawilla.
They had suffered considerable storm damage which had necessitated added
assessments to their homeowner fees. Stress had set in, tempers had flared and
individual's feelings had been hurt. The resident that contacted us had
witnessed the display of Luminaria while visiting a friend in Heathrow. She
thought that Luminaria could be something that could bring her neighborhood
together for the holidays.
One of our members set out to help her succeed. Come the Sunday before
Christmas last year, at dusk it was a sight to be seen. The majority of their 200+
residents had participated. Friendliness was abounding! People were about,
walking their dogs, strolling their children, warming by the fire pits and getting
reacquainted with their neighbors. One neighbor even invited her church choir
group to tour their neighborhood singing carols.
For years, residents have voiced request that we in Tuscawilla display Luminaria
on a night other than Christmas Eve. They had found it difficult to participate in
Christmas Eve Luminaria for various reasons. Their reasons varied from: "I have
26 people come every Christmas Eve for dinner", to "we go out of town", to "we
have church and I am in bell choir", "my grandchildren across town are in a
program", etc, etc.
Each year, the Garden Club donates and our Club members and their spouses
devote several hours of their Christmas Eve setting up the Tuscawilla Main Entry
Fountains with 500 Luminaria displayed for our entire community's enjoyment.
After considerable consideration of all the factors involved, Tuscawilla Pioneer
Garden Club has made the decision to change the date of displaying Luminaria
from Christmas Eve to the Sunday before Christmas. As a result of this decision,
this year's Luminaria display date will be December 18tH.
We ask your consideration in also changing the date that you display Luminaria
and to encourage the homeowners of your area to participate in this wonderful
"Path of Friendship" on Sunday, December 18th We will also need your HELP in
getting the word out to all of Tuscawilla on the change in the display date.
Please assist us in extending this "Path of Friendship" to all our Tuscawilla
neighbors.

The assessments have been proposed to fund capital and maintenance costs
for the removal of existing street signage and streetlights and installation of new
decorative street lampposts and signage along the collector roads within the
Tuscawilla (Phase II) Assessment Area. The project to remove existing street
signage and streetlights and install new decorative street lampposts and signage is
referred to as the Tuscawilla (Phase II) Improvement Project. The assessment for
each parcel of property within the Tuscawilla (Phase II) Assessment Area will be
based upon the number of residential dwelling units per parcel of property
measured in Equivalent Residential Units "ERUs." The assignment of ERU's is
based on the level of benefit each lot receives from aesthetic beauty and enhanced
safety as a result of the Tuscawilla (Phase II) Improvement Project. Amore
specific description is set forth in the Initial Assessment Resolution
Number 2005-40 adopted by the City Commission on October 10, 2005. Copies
of the Initial Assessment Resolution, the plans and specifications for the project,
and the preliminary assessment rolls are available for inspection at the office of
the City Clerk, located at 1126 East State Road 434, Winter Springs, Florida
32708.
Annual capital assessments, for up to 30 years, and maintenance
assessments, for the life of the project, to fund the Tuscawilla (Phase II)
Improvement Project will be collected on the ad valorem tax bill as authorized by
Florida Statutes 197.3632, commencing with the tax bill to be mailed in November
2006. Failure to pay the assessments will cause a tax certificate to be issued
against the property which may result in a loss of title. Future annual capital
assessments may be prepaid at the option of the property owner. However, future
annual maintenance assessments may not be prepaid.
