their recommendation to the City Commission. The City Commission would then

TO THE LOCAL PLANNING AGENCY. .:..:.
Vice Chairman Tom Brown made the recommendation to the Commission that on page 1-
2, Rural Residential, the last sentence "Gets changed." Board Member Carl Stephens, Jr.
stated the sentence should read, "The Rustic Residential land use category is considered a
holding land use until adequate public facilities become available for more intense
development. "
Board Member Rosanne Karr stated, "On page 1-4 where it talks about the types of uses
permitted within the Town Center - I understand what we are saying in the second
paragraph, but I'd like it to include as a permitted use, the schools that are already there.
So maybe it could say something about 'The Town Center is to include a variety of
existing' - I just want it to say that it includes what's already existing there; and then add
to that the mix of uses that we're allowing."
Ms. Crowe responded, "I think we were thinking that civic facilities was kind of taking
care of all of that. But it's no problem to add in, it's not a problem at all to add in -
schools and - the civic facilities really does take care of City Hall, but if Parks is not - in
that one sentence we can go ahead and make sure that that's in there." Board Member
Karr stated, "It's not in there." Ms. Crowe responded, "Okay, so Parks and Schools?"
Board Member Karr agreed.
The Local Planning Agency then discussed page 1-10 regarding Sanitary Sewer. Vice
Chairman Brown asked, "Is that standard procedure, when a developer comes in, that you
have to have adequate sewage? Is that written somewhere?" Ms. Crowe answered,
"We've written concurrency management into the Capital Improvements Element. It's a
requirement by Florida Statutes that something - I know the City Attorney has been
wanting to get in the Comp Plan for quite a while, so, that has been included. And what
concurrency means is that that facilities do have to be in place, concurrent with the
development. So before the development can happen, they have to have adequate
facilities to meet your' adopted Levels of Service, that we are writing right now. The
adopted Levels of Service that we are adopting right now, they have to have them in
place to meet that."

Stores with Ms. Crowe. Vice Chairman Brown asked the opinion of the Board Members.

Ordinances. So it's out of the Comp Plan - for now." Vice Chairman Brown asked, "Is
everyone in agreement?" No Board Members voiced any reservations to this.

Future Lalld Use
Discussion ensued on the Rustic Residential category. Deputy Mayor David W. McLeod
stated, "I think the residents there would want to make it much more difficult for the City
to move into those areas, or a Developer to move into those areas, rather than leave it
open." Deputy Mayor McLeod further said, "With this language, it makes it a lot easier
for them to get in there, So Mayor, my suggestion would be to make sure the language is
tight and it is understood that it is a Rustic Residential area. - And I do believe it falls
under the Land Use - that way." Discussion followed.
Deputy Mayor McLeod added, "So where we have Rural Residential, up to one (1) unit
per gross, that really should in this case then state that it is Rustic Residential up to one
(I)? Is that correct? In the - one that we have in front of us?" Deputy Mayor McLeod
added that this was his recommendation.
Mayor Partyka polled the Commission "In terms of removal of these two (2) lines."
Commissioner Robert S. Miller stated, "It's my understanding that the residents of the
Highlands - the Ranchlands would like to keep the current mix of property that they have.
So if we were to go to this Rural definition, one (1) per acre, then there's nothing to
prevent folks out there that have five (5) acres from selling their land to a Developer and
putting in five (5) residential homes on that piece of property. Then the people on both
sides of them have to deal with that issue." Ms. Crowe responded, "No, they can't
develop more than one (1) unit per gross acre, They still have that Land Use category.
They would have to go through a Land Use Amendment to develop anything higher than
that. But still if everybody would like it to go to Rustic, it's fine."
Commissioner Miller stated, "I am just trying to figure out what the intent is because I
think most of the folks there want to leave it the way it is. There already are many lots in
there that are about one (1) acre in size."
Tape I/Side 8
Mayor Partyka summarized, "So point one (1) is to eliminate those last two (2) lines
similar to what the P and Z Board has suggested." Commissioner Michael S. Blake
stated, "I support that." Commissioner Edward Martinez, Jr. agreed. Deputy Mayor
McLeod stated, "I would definitely support that." Commissioner Miller said, "Yes."
Mayor Partyka summarized, "Okay, that gets eliminated."
Mayor Partyka also stated, "The next question is whether we maintain Rural Residential
as a name or we call it Rustic Residential." Commissioner Blake stated, "I would support
Rustic." Commissioner Miller said, "Yes, I think if that is what it has been all along, it
probably should just be left alone." Deputy Mayor McLeod stated, "Definitely Rustic."
Mayor Partyka summarized, "So, we handled that issue. Okay."

Discussion ensued regarding Density levels, and Commissioner Blake asked, "I am
curious to know where the twenty-one (21) units number came from." Discussion
followed with Staff.
"MR. MAYOR, ON THIS PARTICULAR ITEM, ON THE HIGH DENSITY
RESIDENTIAL CATEGORY FOR LAND USE, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE
NUMBER SIXTEEN (16) BE THE MAXIMUM UNITS PER GROSS ACRE IN
THE TOWN CENTER, WHEN WE GET TO THAT. I AM COMFORTABLE
WITH THIRTY-SIX (36) UNITS THERE AS HAS BEEN RECOMMENDED.
BUT IN OTHER AREAS OF THE CITY, I DON'T THINK I'D LIKE TO SEE
THAT LEVEL OF DENSITY. I THINK WE WANT TO ENCOURAGE THE
HIGHEST DENSITY TO BE IN THE TOWN CENTER AND DISCOURAGE THE
HIGHEST DENSITY FROM BEING AWAY FROM THERE." MOTION BY
COMMISSIONER BLAKE. SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER MARTINEZ.
DISCUSSION.
DEPUTY MAYOR McLEOD ASKED, "WHAT HAPPENS WITH A LOT THAT'S
SITTING OUT THERE AT SAY TUSCAWILLA, THAT'S IN THE HIGH
DENSITY RESIDENTIAL. WILL THIS NOW ALLOW THEM TO DEVELOP
THAT UP TO SIXTEEN (16)?" COMMISSIONER BLAKE STATED, "THAT'S
CONTROLLED BY THE PUD DOCUMENT AND WE'D HAVE TO LOOK AT
THE PUD DOCUMENT TO SEE."
DEPUTY MAYOR McLEOD STATED, "MY PROBLEM HERE AS THE
COMMISSION, I THINK WE JUST HEARD - ONCE IT'S IN HERE IT THEN
GIVES STAFF THE REASON TO REWRITE, RECHANGE ZONING TO COME
BACK TO US. I REALLY WOULD RATHER JUST SEE THESE
RECOMMENDATIONS BROUGHT STRAIGHT FORWARD TO US, AND SAY,
HERE IS WHAT STAFF'S LOOKING TO DO, IS TO CHANGE THIS FROM
HERE TO HERE. THIS IS THE PROBLEM I HAVE WITH THIS DOCUMENT
WHEN WE APPROVE IT. THINGS ARE DROPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS
THAT HAD NOT BEEN BEFORE US, TO LAY IT OUT AND SAY WE DID
THIS. OKAY? WE DID THIS, WE CHANGED THIS FROM TEN (10) TO
TWENTY-ONE (21), OR SIXTEEN (16) OR TWELVE (12). SO MY PROBLEM
IS MAYOR, I HAVE A REAL PROBLEM CHANGING IT AT ALL, AT THIS
TIME.
WE'RE OPENING THE CITY UP. WE'RE OPENING THE COMMUNITIES
UP. WE'RE TAKING COMMUNITIES THAT UNDERSTOOD THERE WOULD
NEVER BE A DENSITY HIGHER THAN A NUMBER, WHICH I.GUESS WAS
TEN (10), AND NOW WE'RE GOING TO GO TO SIXTEEN (16) AND WE'RE
ALMOST ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY PERCENT (150%) GREATER

MAYOR PARTYKA STATED, "I BELIEVE THE MOST DENSE IN TERMS OF
DENSITY UNITS PER ACRE IS TWELVE (12) AT THIS POINT IN TIME."
CITY ATTORNEY GARGANESE RESPONDED, "THAT IS CORRECT.
THAT'S YOUR HIGHER DENSITY RESIDENTIAL CATEGORY."
COMMISSIONER BLAKE STATED, "I THOUGHT WE WERE GOING, I
HEARD SOMETHING ABOUT GOING TO SIXTEEN (16), I KNOW THERE
WAS A QUESTION ABOUT THAT. BUT I ASKED STAFF MOMENTS AGO,
RIGHT IN THIS MEETING AND THEY SAID IT WAS TEN (10). BUT THAT
MIGHT HAVE BEEN IN ERROR, AT LEAST TWELVE (12). DO WE KNOW?"
CITY ATTORNEY GARGANESE STATED, "I AM LOOKING RIGHT AT THE
COMP PLAN IT SAYS HIGHER DENSITY RESIDENTIAL'S DEFINED AS 9.1
TO TWELVE (12)."
MAYOR PARTYKA STATED, "SO WE'RE CLEAR ON THAT. CURRENTLY,
IT'S TWELVE (12). OKAY. ANOTHER PIECE ON THIS I JUST WANT TO
CLARIFY FOR EVERYBODY, NOTHING HERE IS FIRM. EVERYTHING IS
SUBJECT TO CHANGE. SO THE PROCESS IS THE P AND Z HAD IT, NOW
IT'S UP TO US. SO EVERYTHING HERE IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND
FINAL APPROVAL BY THIS COMMISSION. SO THIS IS THE FINAL STEP IN
THAT AREA."
COMMISSIONER BLAKE STATED, "MR. MAYOR, UPON FURTHER
ENLIGHTENMENT I AGREE WITH COMMISSIONER McLEOD. I WOULD
NOT SUPPORT EVEN MY OWN MOTION ON THIS. I THINK WE NEED TO
TAKE A LOOK BACK AT TWELVE (12).

Commissioner Blake then said, "Mr. Mayor, I don't think this would require a vote, I
think just consensus. I would like to see the number set, is the maximum - to twelve (12)
units per gross acre." Mayor Partyka asked the Commission for a consensus and stated,
"Let the record show that they've agreed on twelve (12) units per acre on High Density."

Deputy Mayor McLeod stated, "As we move through these Elements, I would appreciate
Staff on things - of changes of this nature, changes that would affect possibly Zonings,
that those things be pointed out to us. You know where they're at. I don't want to sit
here and try to feel that we have to read line by line to find them, or we have to take the
old one and set it next to it. And I don't mean that you're trying to slide something past
us. We may very well agree with what you've done - what the Staff has done. But I
would just not want to have to sit here and try to figure out what happened on any given
Element or any page that is different than what we've had. So something that is a major
change, and I consider this a major change, I would appreciate Staff informing us as we
move through this. Thank you."
In regards to Parks, Schools, and Trails, Commissioner Martinez stated, "If you go to 1-
36, Policy 1.11.1, it is very clear - it says that 'By 2002, Public Schools shall be listed in
the Zoning chapter as uses allowed in all Zoning districts with the exception of
Conservation, Mobile Home Parks, and Heavy Industrial Zoning districts'. If we have a
Chapter here that says all Zoning districts, I don't know why we have to insert it here."
Manager McLemore agreed with this.
Commissioner Blake added, "I agree upon looking at this further and - we even
implemented here just last year, the Public Schools Element that - being embodied within
this here, and it does say Civic Facilities. . One of the keys to this is you want it to be as
general and as broad as possible so that it takes in those things that you don't ordinarily
think of today, five (5) years from now. So I think I would be in favor of leaving it just
how it us." Deputy Mayor McLeod stated, "I also would be in agreement to leave it as
written." Mayor Partyka stated, "Let the record show that the Commission agrees to
leave it the way it is."
Commissioner Blake said, "I don't see the Town Center Land Use. Is there no longer
going to be a Town Center ..." Ms. Crowe stated, "It's Mixed Use. It's there, it's the
Mixed Use category, it's Town Center and Employment Center, and then there is the
Town Center Zoning Code which we are not recommending a single change to, is the
Zoning Code and that's the only Zoning district." Commissioner Blake stated, ''No, I am
not talking Zoning districts, I am talking Land Use districts. And we have currently have
a Town Center Land Use." Ms. Crowe stated, "The 891 acres is in there."
Commissioner Blake stated, ''No, but I don't see it up there. What I see are other Land
Use categories. But I don't see a category up there that says Town Center. Now I
understand what your saying is that Town Center is a Mixed Use type category. But
we've had some difference between the Town Center district, or Town Center Land Use
category, which is Mixed Use in character, and other Mixed Use parcels in the City. And
they are not the same, and I don't see that up there and that concerns me greatly, because
I don't want to have some of the densities that we are allowing in the Town Center Land-
Use category for instance, next to a neighborhood like Tuscawilla for instance, which has
some Mixed Use land next to it, next to Residential uses." Discussion followed.

Manager McLemore asked, "Under your Mixed Use categories you have Employment
Center as a Mixed Use and you have Town Center as Mixed Use? And there are no
others?" Ms. Crowe stated, "That is correct."
Attorney Garganese stated, "One practical concern, and it may not be a major concern but
it is a concern, by doing it this way you give a property owner, in the current Town
Center, the ability to apply for a Zoning change to the other Zoning category
Employment Center. I just wanted to bring that up. I mean that's potentially a concern
because you may sometime in the future have to fight a Zoning battle with somebody
applying for that change."
Commissioner Blake asked, "Why would we be advised not to have a Land Use category
named Town Center, or to not have a Land Use category named, now apparently, the
Employment Center as opposed to the Greeneway Interchange District? Why would we
not want to have Land Use categories under those names?"
Attorney Garganese responded, "I think you can do it either way. We went through a
tremendous effort to create a Town Center Land Use designation, Given the amount of
effort that the Commission has endeavored and went forward in creating the Town
Center, I think it's a paramount public interest for this Commission to protect the Town
Center and policies and objectives that were created about a year ago. It's been a four (4)
year process but it culminated about a year ago. Again, I would just bring up the point
that somebody could apply for a Zoning change and make an argument, and present a
case to this Commission for a different Zoning designation, Employment Zoning
designation in the Town Center. And we'd have to fight a Zoning battle if this
Commission denied it. And if we lost that battle you would have an Employment
designation - right in the middle of our Town Center."
Commissioner Blake asked, "Mr. Attorney, would we also not have to go through and
actual Land Use change if we change the name, and ultimately perhaps the definition of
the land the currently falls under a Land Use category that is being eliminated? Wouldn't
we have to go through process to reassign that as some other?" Attorney Garganese
responded, "This would be the process. Your EAR Amendments as a Comprehensive
Plan Amendment process." Commissioner Blake stated, "Someplace it would say under
- current format that if property, all property currently falls under the Land Use category
of Town Center Land Use is now being redefined as land in the Mixed Use." Attorney
Garganese stated, "It wouldn't be that specific. It wouldn't need to be."
Commissioner Blake stated, "Mr. Mayor, my opinion is that I wish to retain the Town
Center District Land Use category. I also wish to retain that area formally known as
Greeneway Interchange District Land Use area. I don't have a problem with changing
the name to Employment Center, in fact I think that's probably an advisable move. But
each of those individual Land Use areas I would like to retain as individual areas. Also
specifically so that in the future if we come to a time when we need to alter one (1), I

would like to alter one (1) and not the other, I think we would retain that flexibility as
well." Discussion followed.
Deputy Mayor McLeod stated, "Mayor, I agree with you on keeping that as the
Interchange - the way that we've had it - all of our records if you go back through all
that we've had, we have records talking about it all the way through there; and I also
agree with Commissioner Blake that we definitely need to keep the Town Center, and I
think the one other thing that needs - to be changed, is we change the Rural to Rustic, on
this chart also." Deputy Mayor McLeod further said, "The ones in the book do need to
be changed." Ms. Crowe agreed.
Mixed Use and the Town Center Zoning district were further discussed. Attorney
Garganese stated, "This Commission shouldn't be put in a position to have to fight a
battle over a ZOIting Application in the Town Center. The Town Center has been
specifically defined. If we want to beef up the language and keep it as is, we need to
make sure that the Town Center stays where it is currently, that we don't have to fight a
battle in the future. My job is to locate potential battles and advise the Commission and I
have. The way it is set up right now, there could be a battle sometime in the future on the
Zoning Change application. The language in here specifically says two (2) Zoning
districts have been established to allow Mixed Uses, a mix of uses, Town Center and
Employment Center. Therefore a consistency argument could very easily be made that
either Zoning district is appropriate for a Mixed Use category."
Ms. Crowe asked, "If it's defined geographically, is that acceptable though - if it's
defined geographically right there when as soon as you flip to the Town Center it says
that's the only use that's appropriate in a specific, in that area and within that Master
Plan. And the Master Plan is in here, it's going to be attached to the Comp Plan. Would
that be acceptable?" Attorney Garganese responded, "Depending on the language. I
mean the language has to be extremely tight, but you could put a legal description in and
limit the Town Center." Attorney Garganese further stated, "It's not as tight as having
it's own Future Land Use designation, and I specifically stated at the beginning of this
project to get a copy of the Ordinance and insure that the Town Center Future Land Use
designation be put into the Comprehensive Plan. So I thought I made myself pretty clear
on that point."
Commissioner Blake stated, "Mr. Mayor, my position is as I've already stated, I wish to
have each of those categories reserved." Commissioner McLeod stated, "I also echo the
same thing." Commissioner Martinez stated, "The explanation by the Attorney and what
the Commissioners have said, I agree." Commissioner Miller stated, "I'll go along with
the Attorney's guidance." Mayor Partyka stated, "We have a consensus of this, so it will
be separated out."

Manager McLemore spoke of the Leerdam Property Land Use Designation and stated,
"We need to retain the Mixed Use underlying land use for that piece of property."
Discussion ensued. Ms. Crowe asked, "Do you want it to just be Mixed Use, or do you
want it to say Neighborhood Mixed Use or something that implies a little bit if a lesser
density, than the Town Center,"
Manager McLemore responded, "We could have a residential type Mixed Use and then a
general type of Mixed Use - would allow some Multi-Family and Commercial together.
We could have a type of - I personally think we could work with it as one Mixed Use
category. In this case we are talking about a combination of Residential and Commercial.
There may be other cases where we want a combination of Single-Family and Multi-
Family, I think we could handle it, to be honest with you." Ms. Crowe clarified, "Just
Mixed Use then?" Manager McLemore said, "I think so." Commissioner Blake agreed
and said, "I think so too."
Further discussion ensued on Mixed Use and Commercial property.
Tape 2/Side A
Deputy Mayor McLeod said "Staff has had to look at these maps, 1 hope, and 1 hope Staff
had input. Now 1 have a question of why Staff would take that Mixed Use piece that had
homes and the commercial on it and get rid of the Mixed Use off there and put it as
Commercial?" Discussion.
Mayor Partyka said, "Now what do we want to do about this specific area?" Deputy
Mayor McLeod said, "Mayor, my point is - we're having changes going on that has - 1
believe - much deeper facts here than what we're trying to just approve tonight."
Brief discussion ensued on the approval process. . Deputy Mayor McLeod added, "So
there is nothing else from then on Staff would ever have to do on notifications, any
changes or anything else to that piece of property?" Attorney Garganese said, "Your
notification would be an advertisement in the newspaper to agenda this for city council
approval." Deputy Mayor McLeod stated, "I think it is an oversight on our part. 1 look at
it that way because 1 think it needs to stay right where it is - Mixed Use."
Commissioner Blake said, "Mayor, 1 would like to see the third category of just standard
Mixed Use. I don't think it needs an identifier other than just Mixed Use." Mayor
Partyka said, "Everybody agree on that?" All right. Let the record show that."
Commissioner Blake asked, "Do we have a category of Conservation or is it simply an
Overlay over other categories?" Ms. Crowe stated, "We're recommending you have
both. You have a Conservation Land Use designation and you would have a
Conservation Overlay."

Regarding Policy 1,2.6, Floodplains., Commissioner Blake asked "Does this say that you
can develop in the floodplain or does it not say that? Is that addressed elsewhere?
Because I think this Commission specifically said, we do not want to allow development
in the floodplain." Ms. Crowe said that "Per your current Code of Ordinances and it does
say that you could develop if you met this criteria." Attorney Garganese asked if the
current Ordinance had been reviewed.
Ms Crowe reiterated. her previous comments and said, "If you don't want any
development in the floodplains, period, even if they meet certain criteria that's at your
discretion, I'll be glad to take that out."
Deputy Mayor McLeod then said, "Mayor, that Ordinance is 2001-04, and it's the Flood
Zone Ordinance. It does at the very end of it, it speaks to the eighteen (18) inches. I
would just suggest that - if that Ordinance definitely does spell out that there is not to be
any building there, then I would say take it out. Ifit doesn't say that, then I think it needs
to come back and we need to be aware of that."
Commissioner Blake added, "There is a difference between a floodplain and a floodway,
and I think what we in that Ordinance prohibited was encroachment into the floodway."
Deputy Mayor McLeod agreed with this statement. Mayor Partyka stated, "So,
floodplains at this point in time is okay? Right? Is everybody in agreement on that?
Okay. Good."
Attorney Garganese asked about page 1-5, Industrial. Currently, you permit Adult
Entertainment establishments in Industrial - I think it is wise that you put a provision
under this Industrial category that would specifically allow Adult Entertainment
establishments if you want to keep the policy of having establishments in that area. This
way, any Adult Entertainment codes you may adopt in the future are consistent with your
Comprehensive Plan. So we would need to just add a paragraph, and I will be happy to
give some language, because I have done them before."
Attorney Garganese added, "We'll put a provision in there that says something like this,
'That Adult Entertainment establishments and other types of establishments that create
adverse secondary effects on the community such as deprivation of property, values in
surrounding areas that may increase crimes, those types of establishments - can be
permitted in the industrial area pursuant to land development regulations that get adopted
in the future.'" Furthermore, Attorney Garganese said, "If you want to continue to allow
them in industrial areas, then your Comprehensive Plan should say that."
Mayor Partyka asked, "The question is by our City Attorney is - to allow him to put
some kind of statement on Adult Entertainment. Okay? Are we all in agreement on
this?" Commissioner Martinez stated, "It's important." Deputy Mayor McLeod said,
"Fine. If the City Attorney says it has to be in, it has to be in." With further consultation,
Mayor Partyka stated, "This Commission by consensus has agreed."

Ms, Crowe then said, "The first part of it, you're just concerned about the clause at the
end, correct? The first part of it you want it to say that you don't want to allow

Regarding the latter part of the statement, Ms. Crowe said, "Maybe I can at a later date,

Commissioner Blake added, "As long as you understand." Ms. Crow then suggested, "I
would say for now at least, let's take out the clause at the end," Commissioner Blake

of the required Elements. This is background information for all the Elements. We have
put it as an Appendix to the Land Use Element, since it is the most closely related
Element to this background data." Ms. Tyjeski further explained that "We are going with
the linear historic project and that would bring the population to 37,000 by the year
2010."
Vice Chairman Brown suggested this information be added to the Table of Contents, and .
possibly at the end. Ms. Tyjeski added, "It would nice to put it in the Table of Contents.
We'll find a place."
Discussion ensued on annexations. Vice' Chairman Brown stated, "If we are going to
annex other areas - as Ms. Karr said, there was an emphasis put on that. We were
presented a chart that showed annexations, anticipations of going in - directions. We'll
leave that open to the Commission to review. Mr. Mayor, you can make a little note of
that. "
Employment and growth was next briefly discussed.

Transportation
Ms. Tyjeski introduced this Element and explained that the Traffic Study had been
updated in 1999 by CPR Engineers, Inc., and stated, "What we did, instead of re-doing
all those numbers, we just took their study, put it into our format and copied their maps,
their tables, and tried to incorporate that into the rest of the Transportation modes that we
had to address."
Furthermore, Ms. Tyjeski stated that "This may go to the State and they may send it back
saying that - it needs to be updated. So we have added a policy saying that we are aware
of the discrepancy in the population projection and that the City will take care of
updating the traffic study, by such and such a date."
Regarding bicycle facilities, Ms. Tyjeski said, "In terms of local bicycle facilities, we are
saying that the City should look into doing into doing a master plan for bicycle facilities
that would come off from the Seminole Trail and maybe serve some of the
neighborhoods. "
Mass transit, rail lines, and pedestrian mobility were next briefly covered.

On page II-42, Vice Chairman Brown stated, "If you'll notice on the right hand side,
you'll see Shetland Avenue going all the way to Red Bug on this map and many other
maps. That is not true, Shetland A venue goes to Citrus. Citrus goes from Red Bug up so
far and then turns and goes over to Tuskawilla. I don't know who controls Citrus, I
imagine the County does. But the County and I am sure the City, they have closed off
Morgan and put a cul-de-sac there, and there is a development back in there, and that
road should not be closed." Further, Chairman Brown said, "I think the City of Winter
Springs should take an effort to open up Citrus - from Tuskawilla to Citrus."
Also of concern to Vice Chairman Brown was noted on page II-27. "If you'll look at the
count date you'll see that it's 1996. These papers go to the State and I think we've got
another year; so that would be five (5) years, if that date is right that these counts were
taken. Five (5) years from the date we submit this. Because right now, if you'll look at-
and III go right back to Shetland and these other roads again. Shetland is now becoming
a tremendous traffic road." Vice Chairman Brown added, "That information again will
go to the Commission and they can handle that." Additionally, Vice Chairman Brown
stated, "Closing off Citrus is wrong" and suggested that this be taken care of.
Tape 2/Side B
Board Member Stephens spoke of Fischer Road. Mr. Kipton D. Lockcuff, P.E., Public
W orksfUtility Department Director addressed Board Member Stephens' concerns.
Mr. Lockcuff suggested the following changes: "On Map II-2, we need to add the signals
on Tuskawilla." Further, Mr. Lockcuff suggested, "On Map II-8, we've got Bahama
Road connecting to Winding Hollow. That's okay with me, but I think we took that out
before though." Mr. Lockcuff then said, "On that same map, we will be adding Hickory
as a collector road, north of the west quadrant of the Town Center there. Just a couple
comments on - Policy 1.3.3 on II-47, requiring subdivisions greater than thirty (30) units
having more than two (2) access points. I support that." Mr. Lockcuff added, "That's
probably going to be a policy that should come back to you repeatedly that people don't
want to meet."
Regarding Policy 1.9.7 on page II-53, Mr. Lockcuff said, "I think we should strike that. I
believe that is talking about Tuskawilla from basically south of 434. North of 434 is not
an arterial, so I think that is already done. I would recommend going and striking that
completely. "
"I WOULD MAKE A MOTION THAT WE RECOMMEND IT WITH THE

Commissioner Miller spoke of Shepard Road and stated that it "Shows a very large
amount of traffic and there are several intersection - enhancements going to be made, and
Shepard Road shows - it being converted to, I think it's a four (4) lane road which will
probably require - some intersection work where it meets Sheoah Boulevard, and that's
not shown as one of the ones on 2-42." Furthermore, Commissioner Miller suggested "I
would like that connection from Winding Hollow to Bahama taken out, because we
agreed a year ago I think, that that road would never be connected."
Commissioner Martinez stated, "As far as Citrus being closed off is concerned, the
developer of the 200 homes that he mentioned, at the bequest of the people there, the
residents, the people who bought those properties, asked the County to close that street
off, because they were happier without through traffic. I spoke to a couple of
Commissioners at the time when this thing was going on and that's what they informed
me was happening."
Mayor Partyka stated, "In terms of a specific here - fix Bahama Road on the map; and
also add Hickory." Mayor Partyka stated, "Let the record show that the Commission
agrees with those changes on that map."
On Map II-3, Commissioner Blake stated, "We don't have a circle around the Town
Center area." Commissioner Blake further said, "It's interesting to me that the part that's
going to be developed first, is not yellow." Ms. Tyjeski responded by saying, "Yes, we
need to show that."
Commissioner Blake added, "It says future, future traffic generated; and currently there is
not something to generate traffic." Mayor Partyka stated, "I think this Commission
would agree with that in terms of it being a busy future area - so yes, you could fix that."
On page II-44, Policy 1.1.2, Commissioner Blake questioned the word "State" and said,
"The problem is that we are greatly limiting ourselves to something that is out of our
control." Discussion. Commissioner Blake added, "I am concerned about whether this
Element will prohibit a citizen from developing property that otherwise might be
developed." As a possible solution, Commissioner Blake suggested, "The City shall not
permit development within the municipal limits if it will cause the Level of Service of

any state arterial road to decrease below the level." Ms. Tyjeski stated, "We will just
check 9J5 and see what we have."
Mr. Lockcuff suggested a couple of other considerations: "On Map II-8, we are going to
extend Vistawilla and Tuscora obviously to 434 as Collectors, and not stopping at the
Trail." The consensus of the Commission was agreement.
Commissioner Blake spoke of 1.3.1, and said "I am concerned about 1.3.1 for a couple of
reasons, because we do have provision for people to have narrower roadways and
currently it has to be in a private community, it takes the burden off the taxpayers. If a
community decides they want to have those narrower roadways - we don't allow that
anymore; but we now have a policy though or we are going to have a policy that states
that we're going to encourage it." Mayor Partyka suggested the following to be included
in this paragraph: "Consistent with Neo-traditional Town Center neighborhood
development. "
Regarding comments by Commissioner Blake, Attorney Garganese stated, "I think it was
a great catch by Commissioner Blake - is that the policy says the City shall not permit
development. It's not a question of adopting a Level of Service. There is a provision in
Chapter 163 which says in order to limit the liability of local governments, a local
government may allow a landowner to proceed with development of a specific parcel of
land, not withstanding a failure of the development to satisfy transportation concurrency,
providing it meets certain factors under the Statute. It was a great catch. I would
recommend that you - delete at least a portion of that policy that would flat out prohibit
development, because there appears to be some flexibility in the Florida Statutes to limit
municipalities liability on this issue." Attorney Garganese added that, "You have to
adopt the Level of Service." Mayor Partyka asked Attorney Garganese for his
recommendation regarding Policy 1.1.2. on page II-44. Attorney Garganese stated, "I
would at least delete the first sentence of that policy.
Mayor Partyka asked the Commission for their input, and summarized, "This
Commission agrees to go along with what you have suggested."
NOTE: Technical problems arose with the remainder of Tape 2. so a new tape was used from this point on,
Tape 3/Side A
The Commission discussed the size of subdivisions and access points. Regarding setting
a specific size, Mayor Partyka asked, "Is there a number that we need to have, or do we
eliminate it?" Mr. Lockcuff spoke of past practice. Attorney Garganese said that it
should be a Policy decision. Deputy Mayor McLeod stated, "Eliminate it, Mayor."

Ms. Tyjeski spoke about Shepard Road and said, "Widened to three (3) lanes, so that may
not require that intersection improvement?" Commissioner Miller responded, "Right
now, the traffic on - that segment between Sheoah Boulevard and 17-92 is 5,000 cars a
day; and all the rest of the roads in - the Highlands are 2,000 or 1,000; and the map that I
gave Kip clearly shows that the road is going to be enlarged to three (3) lanes, and the
three (3) lanes will go right down to Sheoah Boulevard, so I don't know how you are
going to do that without making some intersection changes on Sheaoh Boulevard." Ms.
Tyjeski said, "Okay, that's fine."
Commissioner Martinez asked, " I have seen some reference here to BattIeridge. Is it
possible that we could correct that?" Ms. Tyjeski said, "We can just put the new name

the building that is Springs Wharf or not. But Springs Wharf is in the County, I had
mentioned this to the Mayor about a year ago; and it would be good if we could get it
annexed into the City. It's the only historical site that is even near this City, as far as
history goes."
