Commissioner Blake then said, "My recommendation would be to get the document to
us, and let's schedule it as a Regular Agenda Item, and let's try to get everybody to read
it, I00k over it, understand it, and get with the Manager if they have any questions; and if
we are unable to handle it at that Regular Meeting, then we can schedule a Workshop at
that time," Deputy Mayor David W. McLeod said, "I would say that if it looks like we
are going to spend more than an hour on it during the Regular Meeting, then we should
get into a Workshop."
Further discussion suggested that a Workshop be held on Monday, November 12, 2001 at
5:00 p.m. on this matter. Manager McLemore added, "Workshop it, and then keep it on
the Agenda for action."
The final consensus of the Commission was to hold a Workshop on this issue on
Monday, November 12, 2001 at 5:00 p.m. Mayor Partyka clarified, "We'll put it on the

F. City Manager
Requesting The Commission To Review Plans And Costs Related To Magnolia
Park, Streetscapes In The Town Center And Fencing Of The Town Center
Retention Pond Located Behind City Hall.
Mr. Terry Zaudtke, P.E., Vice President, CPH Engineers, Inc.: addressed the
Commission on this Agenda Item.
Mr. Kipton D. Lockcuff, P.E., Public WorkslUtility Department Director handed out a
document to the City Commission and also addressed the concerns of the City
Commission.
Mr. Zaudtke spoke of pricing and paving alternatives and specifically stated, "We found
that current pricing on concrete pavers was much less expensive than previously had been
thought." Mr. Zaudtke added, "What we are looking at on Tuskawilla Road would be to
do the crosswalks up front on 434, leaving this area in the beginning here, to be able to
put the signalization coils and so forth - you need the magnetic loops; and then another
area of paving, and then the crosswalk here; and then making this kind of an intersection
with two (2) different styles of paving; and then - what I call the 'eyebrow' here, would
also be paved. And then up by the school again, we would do the - I am not showing it

on here - but we would again do crosswalks to highlight the school entrance. And then
when you get on Hickory, there are the two (2) crossing that we would highlight and then
pa'{ers whcre the sidewalk crosses the roadway entrances to the area. And, likewise that
would occur with anything that gets developed on the Northern side of the road."
Dis<.:U3sion followed on maintenance and pricing.
Commissioner Robert S. Miller said, "I would like to see us use as much brick as we can
get down." Furthermore, Commissioner Miller stated, "If we cut comers now, it will
always be reflected I think in the overall appearance of the Town Center."
Commissioner Martinez asked Mr. Zaudtke, "Do you have a leaning towards standard
asphalt with concrete pavers?" Mr. Zaudtke said, "Yes."
Discussion followed on the budgeted funds for this project. Commissioner Blake then
said, "On Spine Road, I wouldn't mind seeing a few crosswalk type of enhancements or
things of that nature, but on Main Street I think it is key - my desire would be to totally
brick Main Street and to leave Hickory Grove Park Road - as it is drawn." Discussion
followed on possible costs.
Deputy Mayor McLeod suggested that "If you are talking about the pavers - it's the same
paver then that we would want used throughout the project, including with the developer
of their projects so you have a consistency of the color of the pavers." Mr. Zaudtke
agreed and said, "I believe that that would be a wise choice." Deputy Mayor McLeod
then asked, "Would this be picked - between Doran and our Staff as the first bricks going
through?" Manager McLemore suggested, "If you wanted to leave a portion of it asphalt,
we could do a nice full brick pattern right there at the intersection of Hickory and
Tuskawilla, in that entire section there."
"I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE ACCEPT THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE
CONSUL T ANT AND USE STANDARD ASPHALT AND CONCRETE P AVERS.
I AM NOT GOING TO MENTION THE COST BECAUSE THE MANAGER
MENTIONED THAT THERE IS A POSSIBILITY YOU MIGHT EXTEND AND
USE MORE PAVERS THAN WHAT YOU HAVE SHOWN HERE, SO - MY
MOTION ONLY DEALS WITH THE TYPE OF PAVING THAT WE ARE
GOING TO USE AND THEN THE EXTENT OF IT CAN BE DECIDED BY
ST AFF LATER ON, OR BY THIS COMMISSION IF IT IS BROUGHT BACK."

Commi~sioner Miller said, "Just do it in one part and come back with some numbers at
the next Meeting that would indicate what the overall cost would be." Additionally
Commissioner Miller stated, "I would like to see much more use of brick on that, at least
on M:tin Street."
Furthennore, Commissioner Miller said, "I would like to see some consensus of the
Commission to extensively use brick on Main Street, and what we would have to
sacrifice on the alternate streets." Mayor Partyka started to poll the Commission.
Commissioner Blake's suggestion was "All of Tuskawilla Road."
Tape I/Side B
Commissioner Martinez stated, "Just as it is there."
Commissioner Blake added to his previous comment, "We've got to name these roads.
Just as it is drawn on there, perhaps - a few other accoutrements, if it is possible."
Manager McLemore advised the Commission, "Don't compromise Magnolia Park with
this road, because Magnolia Park has to be magnificent! And we have a very good
starting point on Magnolia Park that will be magnificent - and all I am saying is when we
start thinking about the length of the road and all the other stuff, I think you need to make
these decisions together, rather than separate. That's my recommendation. So, I think
discussion is good tonight, but I think we need to see Magnolia Park rolled into this entire
discussion before you make any final decisions."
Commissioner Gennell stated, "I would agree with that and also to have actually what we
have budgeted for this." Manager McLemore said, "We can bring you back some much
better numbers."
Regarding the poll in progress, Mayor Partyka asked Commissioner Gennell, "To what
degree would you like to have - the concrete pavers in this?" Commissioner Gennell
responded, "As much as possible." .
As for Deputy Mayor McLeod's opinion, Deputy Mayor McLeod stated, "I would like to
have you come back - with this as an alternative, that we have in front of us, but then on
Main Street would be the difference to close in those open areas on Main Street with
brick pavers; and that would also be to include the parking spaces." Deputy Mayor
McLeod further said, "I would suggest that we look at putting that thing into the second
cost, being to fill in those spots with pavers; and I guess really the third would be - if you
left it out of the parking spaces, what would that cost be?"
Deputy Mayor McLeod inquired about the future repair of the product and the related
costs. Deputy Mayor McLeod then said, "I would like to know how it does definitely
affect the budget that we have, as we go with it." Mr. Lockcuff suggested, "We are out to
Bid now, and the second we have our Bid, we could issue an Addendum showing this

CITY COMMISSION
SPECIAL MEETING - OCTOBER 29,2001
PAGE 7 OF 19
with an alternative to give unit costs for brick pavers that we could bring back at the time
of award - the alternatives, how that unit costs relates to parking places, the whole road
and all that." Deputy Mayor McLeod added, "You could really put out Addendum one
(I), two (2), and three (3). That would give you the three (3) different breakdowns of the
costs - as alternatives, as each one being an Addendum to the cost and therefore when
they came back, then the Commission could pick it at that point."
Mr. Zaudtke said, "We need to also discuss though with DOT and the signal people how
we would go about taking care of the magnetic loops here. They have been negative in
the past about putting the loops in where pavers are." Deputy Mayor McLeod asked
"Couldn't you put that under a concrete strip right there?" Discussion followed on
potential repairs and whether a "Sleeve" could be used. Mr. Lockcuff suggested, "We
could talk to Winter Park." Deputy Mayor McLeod then said, "Why don't you figure
that out and come back and tell us, but I would think you could put a sleeve into the
concrete as it is poured there." Deputy Mayor McLeod then suggested, "Make it a
pattern, a design pattern out of concrete."
Mayor Partyka stated, "I think the consensus is to do as much as possible in terms of this,
especially the entire Main Street if it is possible, but there is a cost issue that we need to
determine."
Commissioner Gennell stated, "When you all come back to us with the figures, is it
possible that we can get some drawings that we can have up here to look at, because
those are not that easy to - pick up the detail on."
Deputy Mayor McLeod asked Mr. Zaudtke, "Wouldn't it be just as wise for them to bring
the three (3) alternatives back to us in an Addendum - put an Addendum out in the Bid.
When the Bids come back, then to have what budget information we do have and be able
to look at it as the Bids." Mayor Partyka asked Members of the City Commission if they
were in agreement and then said, "I think this Commission agrees with that suggestion,
and that is to get everything back, bring it back here." Mr. Zaudtke then said, "We
thought that could be brought back as part of the Bid Award; you know, what do you
want to award and that whole package which comes back to the Commission anyway;
come back with the diagrams, and all the different alternates."
DE.PUTY MAYOR McLEOD STATED, "I WILL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO
MAKE THAT AS A MOTION." MOTION BY DEPUTY MAYOR McLEOD.
SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER BLAKE. DISCUSSION.
MANAGER McLEMORE ASKED, "ARE WE GOING ALL THE WAY TO THE

STREET, RIGHT WHERE WE ARE THERE, AT MAGNOLIA PARK." MR.
ZAUDTKE SAID, "AND DO THE ACCENTS UP AT THE HIGH SCHOOL,
WHICH ARE NOT SHOWN HERE, BUT THAT IS WHAT WE WERE
PLANNING ON DOING, CROSSWALK ACCENTS AT THE SCHOOL."
DEPUTY MAYOR McLEOD ADDED, "I THINK I WOULD DO THE
CROSSWALK ACCENTS. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WOULD GO ALL THE
WAY TO THE SCHOOL."
MAYOR PARTYKA ASKED IF THE COMMISSION UNDERSTOOD THIS AS
THE MOTION. COMMISSIONER BLAKE ADDED, "I THINK WE NEED TO
KNOW HOW MUCH IT IS GOING TO COST TO DO IT THE RIGHT WAY,
THE WAY WE WOULD LIKE TO DO IT, ALL THE WAY UP TO THAT
POINT." DEPUTY MAYOR McLEOD SAID, "COMMISSIONER BLAKE IS

Mr. Zaudtke then handed out a rendering of the retention pond fencing system and stated,
"Generally you are looking at a requirement of a minimum height of forty-two (42)
inches and you would have to have some sort of support and post systems, roughly every
eight (8) feet. So, what I did was I put together a concept plan here of putting in columns
every twenty-four (24) feet, and then having the secondary posts every eight (8) feet.
Also, what we did was we added instead of bringing the sheet piling all the way up to the
top, we ended the sheet piling top at the water level, put a concrete base there and then
put keystone blocks which would have a split-face appearance and we can get a very
similar color to what City Hall is now; and so there would be some kind of matching look
as we went from the one to the other. The other thing that would occur is you would
have ;l walkway around with landscaping around the pond for use - as part of the Trail
system, meandering on both sides of the pond."
Regarding the fencing, Mr. Zaudtke said, ""I would recommend aluminum that looks like
wrought iron." Commissioner Blake asked, "Is that strong enough?" Mr. Zaudtke
responded, "Yes. It can be designed, the ASCE 797 requires a fifty (50) pound per lineal
foot load on the fence." Discussion.

G. City Manager
Requesting The Commission To Adopt Resolution #2001-44 Creating The Central
W~nds Park Advisory Committee To Appoint Members Thereto, And To Change
The Proposed Swimming Pool Workshop From January 2002 To March 2002.
Much di~cussion.
Deputy Mayor McLeod said, "I think this Advisory Board would come back to this
Commission and say - the number one (I) item is not soccer fields; the number one (1)
item is three (3) tennis courts - by the use that we have going on in our park, it would be
practice fields. But, by the general public's overall use of what they may want to be able
to do in - that park could be more adult activity and not totally all tied up into the activity
of kids or Leagues and I think that is the important key question to find out."
Manager McLemore asked Deputy Mayor McLeod, "So you want this Committee to
actually do public Workshops?" Deputy Mayor McLeod said, "With our Parks Director,
yes." Deputy Mayor McLeod then said to Manager McLemore, "The Workshops need to
be set up on the park overall with the general public as to what that design entails."
Mayor Partyka then read from the Resolution for clarification.
Commissioner Martinez stated, "Point of Order" and spoke of the current discussion.
Commissioner Blake stated, "I do agree with Commissioner McLeod that part of this
planning process ought to be some exercise to determine what ought to be there and what
should not be there. I don't remember this Commission deciding that a football field
would be there or that a swimming pool would be there, or that softball fields would be
there. "

Furthermore, Commissioner Blake said, "It is an 'Ad Hoc' Committee by the way, and it
should say that in here. It's not one of continuing existence. Their job is to take the
property that is there, work with the designers, work with the public, the citizens, and
determine what would be the best plan. Then they would come back and recommend to
us in terms of building it. Once that is done then I think, yes, ultimately we will be
having Workshops to go over their recommendations: '.'
Tape 2/Sidc A
Commissioner Miller said, "The difficulty that I want to avoid at this time is the
perception going out, and all these people that show up, that this land was purchased for
football fields and soccer fields. We have other people that have expressed an interest in
other types of athletic activities and I think we seriously need to address those."
Commissioner Miller added, "I don't see any problem at all with making space there for a
swimming pool."
Commissioner Martinez pointed out that "On Item 'G' in recommendation, where it says
adopt 'Resolution 21001.' It's not '21001,' it's '2001.'"
Commissioner Gennell said, "We need to do a comprehensive study of it with a
Committee that is assigned to do that; to come back and bring us recommendations just
like any other Board does; and encompassing all aspects of things that the public brings
to them that they wish to be considered."
Discussion followed on the suggested number of nine (9) individuals to be affiliated with
this Committee. Commissioner Gennell stated, "One of my concerns would be to fill all
the spaces on this Board with special interest people, as opposed to people from the
community who could hear from the special interest people, and let - all of the special
interests make their presentations to people without a special interest."
"I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE ASK THEM TO COME
BACK - MY MOTION IS TO GO FORWARD SO THAT WE CAN GET THIS
BOARD ESTABLISHED. I WOULD RECOMMEND LIMITING IT TO SEVEN
(7) PEOPLE, AS OPPOSED TO NINE (9). SO THAT'S MY MOTION FOR
SEVEl'i (7) PEOPLE, AND TO PASS THE RESOLUTION TO HAVE THAT
COMMITTEE AND TO - TASK THEM WITH THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE
DISCUSSED HERE TONIGHT, WITH A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY OF THAT
ISSUE AND COME BACK TO US; HOLD PUBLIC HEARINGS AND COME

GENNELL.

WORKSHOPS?" COMMISSIONER GENNELL STATED, "ISN'T THAT WHAT

COMMITTEE SHOULD BE COMPRISED OF NINE (9) MEMBERS.
COMMISSIONER BLAKE AGREED WITH COMMISSIONER MARTINEZ
REGARDING MEMBERS OF THE BOARD BE OPEN TO ALL CITY
RESIDENTS. ADDITIONALLY, COMMISSIONER BLAKE STATED, "WHAT I
WOULD LIKE TO SEE IS, WHILE I WOULD RATHER HAVE A BOARD THE
SIZE OF SEVEN (7), I THINK THIS PARTICULAR ONE REALLY DOES
NECESSITATE A BOARD OF NINE (9) AND TO THAT END, I THINK THERE
OUGHT TO BE SIX (6) APPOINTMENTS MADE BY THE MAYOR AND THE
COMMISSION INDIVIDUALLY, OR AS A GROUP, WE CAN WORK THAT
OUT; AND THEN ALLOW STAFF TO APPOINT THREE (3) PEOPLE TO THE

Commissioner Blake asked about question 2a. on page one (1) - 'Are you a resident of
Winter Springs?' and said, "Is there some way we could word that more effectively
because a lot of people think they live in Winter Springs, but they don't." Attorney
Garganese suggested the wording of "Do you live within the city limits of Winter
Springs?" Commissioner Blake said, "That's clear enough."
Next, Commissioner Blake asked about 3a., which references being convicted of a
felony. Attorney Garganese said "You don't have to ask 3b. - if you want to eliminate
thE't question." Manager McLemore suggested "It would be better - if you do it as a
declaration, and tell them up front." Commissioner Blake added, "That's fine too."
Commisswner Miller stated, "'Point of Order.' I distinctly remember all of us agreeing
that this was only going to apply to new people coming on board, would not apply to
anybody who was already serving on a City Board. They didn't have to do it even if they
were re-elected and re-elected for normal terms, but the minute that seat becomes vacant
and a new person comes in, that person has to fill out the form. "
Mayor Partyka stated, "That's a Point of Order and that's correct." Attorney Garganese
added, "I just believe it would be good to get the information on file, especially the
reporting requirements."
Tape 2/Side B
Under C. 3., Commissioner Blake suggested, "There should be a line in there that says
'Other. '" Mayor Partyka added, "It would be 3., then it goes a., b., c. for each of the
Committees, then you add a 'j.' for 'Other. '"
Deputy Mayor McLeod said, "Under Reappointment, they should fall under the same
criteria as the ones we are now bringing on because it is a whole new appointment."
Deputy Mayor McLeod then suggested, "If they know they have the form to fill out and
they feel there are any problems with that form, they have also have a thing that we send
out that says your term is up, 'Are you wanting to be Reappointed?' All they have to say
at that time is 'No.' And at that same time, if they want to, I believe the form should be
sent to get the record straight - is the same as a new Appointment, and should come under
the same scrutiny as we would anybody else coming on board.".
"I MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE ITEM 'B' - AS CORRECTED." MOTION
BY COMMISSIONER MARTINEZ. SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER
MILLER. DISCUSSION.

COMMISSIONER GENNELL ASKED, "HAVE WE DELETED 3b.?"
ATTORNEY GARGANESE SAID, "YES." ATTORNEY GARGANESE THEN
SAID, "I AM ALSO GOING TO ADD AS THE CITY MANAGER SUGGESTED,
A LITTLE FOREWARNING - 'THAT THE CITY CODE ALSO PROHIBITS A
PERSON FROM SERVING ON A CITY - COMMITTEE, IF THAT PERSON
HAS BEEN CONVICTED OF A FELONY,' SO IT IS UP FRONT, IF THAT'S
APPROPRIATE. ALSO CHANGE 2a. TO 'DO YOU LIVE WITHIN THE CITY
LIMITS OF WINTER SPRINGS?' AND ADD A 3. j 'OTHER.'"
DF,PUTY MAYOR McLEOD ASKED, "I WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT IF THE
COMMISSION FEELS THAT IS APPROPRIATE, TO WHAT WE ARE
TALKING ABOUT HERE IS THAT THE REAPPOINTMENT - FORM SHOULD
BE S.ENT." COMMISSIONER MILLER ADDED, "I WOULD LIKE TO ASK
THAT THE CITY ATTORNEY OR THE CITY MANAGER BRING US BACK
AN INFO ITEM ON THIS NEXT TIME. LET'S FIND OUT WHAT WE
AGREED TO THE FIRST TIME."
Commissioner Blake stated, "Point of Order" which dealt with the related Ordinance,
which has already been passed.
DEPUTY MAYOR McLEOD SAID, "I WOULD LIKE THE CITY ATTORNEY
TO LOOK AT THAT AND BRING US BACK THE ANSWER TO THAT ONE
PLEASE."

C. Community Development Department
Presents To The City Commission A Revised Phasing Plan For The 15.08 Acre JDC
Calhoun, Inc. Property.
Mr. Charles Carrington, AICP, Community Development Department Director
introduced this Agenda Item.

CITY COMMISSION
SPECIAL MEETING - OCTOBER 29,2001
PAGE 17 OF 19
Commissioner Blake stated, "Point of Order" and pointed out that "I believe this is not
the Phasing Plan that was approved on the Meeting dated October 22/1{'. As a matter of
fact, I believe the large sheet of paper which had different color inks on it was supposed
to be made part of the record and showed something different." Commissioner Blake
further asked, "Did we add a 'Key' or a 'Legend' to those colors there like it was
instructed? "
Brief discussion ensued on the plans and Phases. Mr. Carrington explained that "The
first Phase is shown in yellow, and you will see that this building, I, 2, and 3 now is
included in Phase 1. The change here is that Buildings 8, 10, and 15 under the old Phase
-. which ~/ere in Phase I before - 8, 10, and 15 have moved into Phase II under this
propcsed plan that is before you tonight. I feel it is much better. The reason 1 feel it's
better is because this major building on the corner of Tuskawilla and State Road 434
whil:h is a two (2) story structure is now included in the 1 sl Phase as is the second
building along Main Street or Tuskawilla Road and the third building along Main Street.
All of these buildings are two (2) story buildings."
Mr. Carrington further said that "We still have the Publix building in on the 1 sl Phase; we
have building nine (9) in on the 1 sl phase. And it is quite easy to see the development of
the 2nd Phase picking up here; building 4, 5 on Hickory Grove; 6, 7, 8 at the corner of the
EastlWest connector and State Road 434; and finally this building here, 10 which is
leased out, as I understand it to a bank building. They are not going to sell the land, they
are going to lease and the bank builder is going to build its own structure there - and
that's why they moved it into the 2nd Phase. All of these internal buildings will be in the
2nd Phase. The three (3) buildings, plus the liner building that was shown in the 3rd Phase
when Mr. McLemore presented it on the 22nd, are still shown in the 3rd Phase."
CornC!lissioner Blake asked, "Can we trade building 8 for 4 or something like that so we
can get building 4 in the 1 sl Phase?" Manager McLemore said, "We can try."
Further discussion.

Commissioner Gennell asked, "Is this going to come back to us in some kind of a
concrete thing or do I have to ask you right now to color code these maps for me so that 1
have it to refer to, in the future." Attorney Garganese stated, "I believe that is coming
back with a second Modification to the Development Agreement."
.:. .:. AGENDA NOTE: THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION TOOK PLACE
NEXT. .:. .:.
Attorney Garganese stated, "It's on the Respite Center, the 'Due Diligence' period. - we
are currently going through 'Due Diligence' and 'Due Diligence' is set to expire at the
end of this month; and we are asking for an additional thirty (30) days to complete 'Due
Diligence.' The HCCH folks have already agreed to the thirty (30) day extension,
actually it's a little bit more than thirty (30) days - it brings us to December 1 S\ and they
have executed a 1 sl Amendment to the contract; and I am looking for authorization for the
City Manager to sign to extend 'Due Diligence' to December I."
