Dear Mr. Tullos,
Please find enclosed the City's second proposed implementation agreement as provided
for in the Winter Springs Town Center Phase II Development Agreement dated
December 15, 2005 inclusive of discussions occurring at the November 8, 2006 City
Commission Workshop regarding Town Center parking issues.
The purpose of this agreement is to effect a permanent solution to the parking issues in
the Town Center through the accomplishment of the following objectives.
1. Restoration of City owned on-street spaces and developer owned on-site spaces
that have been lost over the life of the Town Center to date, and
2. Replacement of spaces eliminated by the widening of Main Street sidewalks
which are needed to make Main Street a more pedestrian friendly and customer
active place, and
3. Facilitation of an active and on-going program of special events which adds
dramatically to the economic success of Town Center merchants.
To accomplish these objectives, the City proposes the following:
1. Consistent with the development agreement and first implementation agreement
proposed by the City and the final engineering plans adopted by the City
Commission, to add not less than 62 parking spaces in the North Garage as
provided for in the final engineering plans approved by the City Commission.
The City proposes to amend the initial proposal for the City to pay cash upon the
issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy and final completion of the construction of
the garage in an amount equal to $15,000 per space.
2. To the extent feasible, the City desires to add up to 108 general use public spaces
over and beyond those currently shown in the approved South Garage final
J
engineering plans for which the City will pay cash upon the issuance of a
Certificate of Occupancy and final completion of construction in an amount equal
to $15,000 per space.
3. Consistent with the City's original proposal, if it is not feasible to add the
additional 108 spaces to the South Garage, the City desires to have the option to
add all or that portion of the 108 spaces which could not be built in Phase II-A to
the first parking facility constructed in Phase II-B which would be in addition to
the minimum requirements of parking spaces needed to meet the development
program for Phase II-B. In recognition of the fact that construction of a Phase lI-
B parking facility could take place months or years after the construction of Phase
II-A parking facilities, the City agrees to pay cash for these spaces in an amount
equal to $15,000 per space plus an increase in cost mutually acceptable to the
parties resulting from increased constructions costs.
As a reminder, in Section 3.9 of the Winter Springs Phase II Development Agreement,
J.D.C. agrees that it will construct sufficient parking within the two parking structures
planned for Phase II-A to provide the parking requirement of Phase II-A, and in addition
to provide to the extent feasible for additional public parking spaces upon the City's
request. Nothing in this agreement says anything about these parking facilities being
utilized for Phase II-B parking.
In the City's first proposed implementation agreement provided to you in August 2006,
the City requested 62 additional public spaces in the North Garage. This number was
arrived at according to your representations as to the number of additional spaces you felt
you could provide. The initial proposal also requested an additional 100 public spaces to
be built in Phase II - B.
In the final engineering plans approved by the City Commission, the North Parking
Garage contains the 62 additional spaces requested by the City. The City proposes now
to pay for these additional spaces in cash payable upon delivery at $15,000 per space.
Subsequent to approval of the final engineering plans, J.D.C.'s position changed. J.D.C.
now desires to utilize the extra 62 spaces in the North Garage for Phase II-B parking due
to the fact that a Phase II-B tenant is on the horizon.
This appears to be an obvious contravention to the spirit if not the letter of the
development agreement.
We do not have any issues with the South Garage being utilized to accommodate Phase
II-B parking provided that the 62 spaces in the North Garage are retained for the City and
the Phase II-B tenant spaces are in addition to the other 693 spaces required for the Phase
II-A development program.
In order to simplify the complications raised by the Phase II-B parking requirements my
question is this; is it out of the question to consider construction of an extension of the
South Garage or a Third Garage on the hotel site to provide the additional parking similar
to the following:
PHASE II-A
PHASE II-B
Developer Paid
City Paid
693
62
755
Developer Paid - Estimated Hotel
City Paid - Estimated Office Building
City Paid
100
100
108

We hope you find this revised agreement acceptable. We are certainly open to all other
suggestions that would allow us to resolve parking and all other issues so that we can
move ahead as rapidly as possible.
Sincerely,
~d./t/.~~

spaces under the same terms and conditions set forth in Paragraph 4.3.
4.5 Phase II-B - Option to Purchase Public Parking by the City. To the extent
that the City has not acquired the full number of the one hundred eight parking spaces identified
in Paragraph 4.4, the City shall have the option, but not the obligation, to purchase additional
public parking spaces in the first parking facility constructed in Phase II-B. The number of
parking spaces available under this option shall be equal to whatever number of spaces that were
not purchased by the City in the South Garage. The purchase of the parking spaces shall be
under the same terms and conditions set forth in Paragraph 4.3. However, the purchase price
shall be subject to an annual inflation adjustment commencing on the first anniversary of this
Phase II Implementation Agreement. The adjustment shall be based on the Consumer Price
Index, Southeast Region.
4.6 Phase II-A Temporary Parking. IDC and the City acknowledge and agree
that there will be a need for temporary unpaved, stabilized parking during the construction of
Phase II-A. In order to accommodate this need, the parties agree as follows:

(60) spaces, located at a vacant area of Phase I on the south side of Blumberg Boulevard until
such time as the North and South Garages have been completed.
(B) The City shall make available not less than thirty (30) temporary parking spaces
on the real property known as Magnolia Park until such time as the North and South Garages
have been completed.
(C) While existing on-street parking located on the east side of Main Street is
unavailable due to scheduled Phase II-A underground utility work and construction activities,
IDC shall make available not less than thirty (30) temporary parking spaces on vacant real
property adjacent to the east side of Main Street. The temporary spaces may be removed at such
time the on-street parking on the east side of Main Street is fully restored.
4.7 Special Conditions for Garage Parking Spaces. The
conditions shall apply to the garage spaces:
(A) The one hundred ten (110) unassigned general use garaged spaces provided for in

(C) IDC may petition the City to reclassify a portion of the four hundred ninety-eight
assigned residential spaces to unassigned residential spaces or unassigned general use public
spaces. However, under no circumstances will IDC be pennitted to increase the number of
assigned residential parking spaces by reclassifying unassigned general use public parking
spaces or City purchased public parking spaces.
5.0 South Garal!e Buffer BuUdin!!. Relative to the Buffer Building defined below,
the parties agree as follows:
5.1 Liner Buildings Required for Garages. The City requires parking garages to be
encompassed with useable liner buildings in order to prevent the unsightly effect of exposed
parking decks to the public, and that such exposure must be prevented to accomplish the quality
of design and amenities the city desires for the Town Center.
5.2 Limited Exception. Notwithstanding the fact that the south side of the South
Garage in Phase II-A does not temporarily meet liner building requirements, the parties agree
that the south side of the South Garage in Phase II-A faces a service alley and that it is IDC's
intent to buffer the exposed south side with a building or buildings of sufficient height and width
to fully block the view of the exposed south side of the garage from State road 434 ("Buffer
Building"). However, the parties acknowledge and agree that since the Project is a very large
development that will span the course of several years, conditions outside the control of JDC
may impede JDC's ability to construct the Buffer Buildings within the time frame intended. As
such, the parties desire to agree on the following contingency plan for the construction of the
Buffer Building:
(A) As a temporary buffering measure until the Buffer Building is constructed, JOC shall
install and maintain in good condition a line of trees and other plant material acceptable
to the City that shall serve to buffer the view ofthe South Garage from S.R. 434.
(B) JOC shall make a sincere and good faith effort to commence construction 0 the
Buffer Building not more than two years from the effective date of this Agreement.
(C) In consideration of the reality that the south elevation of the building located behind
McDonald's may be exposed for many years to the public, JOC and the City agree to
hold discussion for the purpose of exploring mutually acceptable conditions under which
decorative enhancements could be added to the exterior of the structure which do not
impact the internal design and/or function of the building as designed.
6.0 Phase II-A and I1-B Infrastructure Improvements. The following conditions
shall apply to certain Phase II-A and II-B public infrastructure improvements:
6.1 Compliance with Applicable Laws. All Phase II-A and II-B public infrastructures
will be built in accordance with all applicable laws, codes, regulations, and special conditions
established by the City.
