401. Office Of The City Manager — Kevin L. Smith
Manager Smith commented on expenses, the Budget process, Workshops and possible Town Hall Meetings.
Regarding holding Town Hall Meetings, Commissioner Sally McGinnis suggested, "I support it - do them all in
City Hall."
Commissioner Joanne M. Krebs asked what was done to get all the attendees to last year's Visioning Meetings -
to which Manager Smith referenced some of what was done last year in terms of marketing the Meetings. In
agreement with Commissioner Krebs, Manager Smith referenced a detailed list which he said included
"Advertising in the Water Bills - we can also utilize our new sign, so on and so forth. So I think we could simply
mirror that marketing campaign." Commissioner Krebs asked, "Can we follow that plan perhaps?" Manager
Smith responded by saying, "Absolutely."
Mayor Bush suggested, "In light of what has just been said, maybe the Manager could - put together a plan that
you can bring back to the Commission for Approval."
Commissioner Bonner noted, "I would really like to hear your Staff read-out and ideas about closing Budget gaps
and so on and whether that is in regular session or in Workshop or Special Meeting session and then offer the
public the opportunity to come in after your Staff work is Public Record. I would love to hear the public's
feedback on your presentation, your ideas, your thoughts, prior to us getting into the sleeve rolling, debating
process."
CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - APRIL 26, 2010 PAGE 8 OF 22

Kevin (Smith) individually, let him know and then come back." With further comments, Mayor Bush said,
"Commissioners, I encourage you to speak with Kevin (Smith) individually about any idea you might have" and
noted that the intent is to have as many residents attend as possible.
Lastly, Mayor Bush noted, "I always like to remind all of you all sitting out there as well as the Commission, that
Kevin (Smith) and the Staff did a great job cutting $1.7 million [dollars] out of our Budget, and without reducing
City services - what a job that he (Kevin Smith) did, and the Department Heads, as well as the rest of the
employees."
REPORTS

from a timeline standpoint". No objections were heard. Commissioner Bonner added, "With our expanded
communications capability, do we have some new ways to alert the public to the possibility of vacancies and/or
the opportunity for some Appointments that they might want to come forth and present themselves as
candidates?"
City Clerk Lorenzo-Luaces said it could be added to the City's Website. Commissioner Bonner suggested
information be included in the next Insider and sent out via eAlerts, etc. Manager Smith noted, "The next Insider
just to answer that, is to be consistent with the 4t' of July Event, but all those other mechanisms are surely at our

Behavioral Health Care Agency and invited anyone interested in more information about this Agency to attend a
meeting this Friday, April 30`h, 2010, at three o'clock at the Sanford Civic Center.
Mayor Bush remarked about the costs related to running for Election, including local government and said, "I
would like to see the Commission consider that in the "Insider" before the Primary Election, and maybe for the
General Election that we run, "Who's Running in - Winter Springs", not a campaign ad, but this is who they are,
this is where they live - the general things; and this is something Anthony (Garganese) would have to research."
Furthermore, Mayor Bush noted, "I just want you to think about it. Talk to Kevin (Smith) about it. I know Kevin
(Smith) will talk to the Attorney about it and see if it is something we can legally do."
Next, Mayor Bush commented on a Commissioner's Text Messaging Company and suggested the Commissioner
"Reconsider his decision not to let the Commission consider this". Mayor Bush also thought the City
Commission should consider this service.
In other City business, Commissioner McGinnis suggested that the City host a Candidate Night. Mayor Bush said
to Manager Smith, "Why don't you put that on your `To think about' list. That is not a bad idea either. I like that
too."
Discussion followed on a "Thank You" Event related to the Nadia Bloom Search and Rescue Effort planned for
Trotwood Park. Mayor Bush mentioned that he would have liked to have attended this Event. Mayor Bush
added, "We don't like to miss things like that." Mayor Bush suggested that for similar events, "I think that is
something that I would like to see brought before the Commission - so dates can be agreed upon by the Mayor
and City Commission."
Further comments followed on the kind efforts of the company hosting the "Thank You" Event related to the
Nadia Bloom Search and Rescue Effort; that all Agencies involved were invited; and how the City Manager can
best get information to the City Commission in between City Commission Meetings. Discussion.
Deputy Mayor Brown stated, "I thought we had established a Policy back then which governed when and how the
City brand was used and that it was only to be used with the express Approval of the Commission as a whole.
And so, if we haven't done that then maybe there is a Policy that needs to be put in place and the City Manager
has it firmly in his control of when the City Logo, the City Seal, `The City of Winter Springs cordially invites
you...' can be used officially." Commissioner McGinnis said, "I agree."
CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - APRIL 26, 2010 PAGE I 1 OF 22
Furthermore, comments followed on whether the City Commission could be contacted individually. Attorney
Garganese noted, "He can contact you just to get your view, but the Commission can't vote unless you are in a
Public Meeting." Mayor Bush then said to Manager Smith, "Why don't you talk to Anthony (Garganese) about
that..." Manager Smith stated, "...Sure..." Mayor Bush added, "...Bring it back at another Meeting and bring us
up-to-date."
Next, Mayor Bush noted that Winter Springs has been asked to Approve representation on the Seminole County
Expressway Authority (SCEA) and suggested that the Council of Local Governments in Seminole County
(CALNO) is recommending that Lake Mary Deputy Mayor Gary L. Brender be Reappointed. Mayor Bush added,
