REQUEST:
The City Manager is requesting that the City Commission hold a Public Hearing relative to the approval of
Resolution No. 2013-17, which establishes the Final Operating Millage Rate and the Final Voted Debt
Service Millage Rate for Fiscal Year 2013-2014 for the City of Winter Springs.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The decision to levy an operating millage rate of 2.4300 mills as opposed to the rolled-back rate of 2.3665
mills results in additional ad valorem General Fund revenues of approximately $100,000 (net of statutory
discount). The decision to maintain the voted debt service millage rate at 0.1100 mills requires a subsidy
from the General Fund to the Central Winds Debt Service Fund in the amount of $10,000 which would
have been greater had the Central Winds General Obligation Bond not been refinanced.

Secondly, Commissioner Joanne M. Krebs remarked that at the next Tri-County League of Cities meeting, they
are most likely creating an associate membership and suggested we make sure we have a member in attendance to
cast a Vote. Commissioner Krebs noted she was planning to attend.
Attorney Garganese suggested that at the October 14th, 2013 City Commission Regular Meeting, the City
Commission review the actual proposed amendment to the articles of incorporation of the Tri-County League of
Cities and that the Commission could offer direction to the individual who will represent Winter Springs.
Commissioner Krebs thought this was a good idea.
Mayor Lacey suggested we have an alternate attendee. With further comments, Commissioner Jean Hovey said
she would forward the City Clerk an email she had received on this same matter and would also try to attend the
October 17th, 2013 Tri-County League of Cities meeting. Commissioner Rick Brown asked that if Commissioner
Krebs or Commissioner Hovey cannot attend, to advise him and he would try to attend and represent Winter
Springs.
Next, Commissioner Krebs referenced the last City Commission Regular Meeting, and that she was surprised to
hear the Mayor make a Motion, and said to Attorney Garganese, "Can you put together an Opinion on that. As
far as I know, all the power is vested in the Commission." Attorney Garganese stated, "I would be happy to put
together an Opinion or complete the one that I am writing."
Much discussion ensued on the City Commission,the role of the Mayor, the City's Charter, Motions, and whether
this could be defined in the Commission's Rules of Procedures. Attorney Garganese noted, "You could clarify in
the Resolution that's presented tonight."
Quorum status, power of the Commission, Charter stipulated rules of authority, how the Mayor represents the
City, the Mayor and City Clerk affixing their signatures on Resolutions and Ordinances, and ministerial duties
were addressed next.
Mayor Lacey noted some disagreements he had; and discussion followed on Appointing Charter Officials, a
previous action related to a former Mayor, whether the Mayor was part of the Commission and/or governing
body, Charter excerpt 4.1.3, quorums, Commission voting, the Mayor's ability to break a tie and common law
considerations.

RECOMMENDATION:
The City Attorney and City Manager recommend approval of Resolution 2013-29, effective October 1,
2013.
Attorney Garganese introduced this Agenda Item, recent changes in the Law, and remarked, "It's important for
the Commission to recognize the new law,make the necessary adjustments that need to be made to implement the
new law and to keep your meetings efficient."
Further comments.
Tape 1/Side B
Attorney Garganese then addressed the second round of Public Input and recommended that it not be mandatory,
to provide for flexibility.
Additionally, Attorney Garganese noted that "One major impact that you are going to see from the law, from
Winter Springs' perspective, is when you bring things up ad hoc for final official action, like under `Reports' —
the Mayor as the Presiding Officer would, if you've got a Motion and a Second, before final action was taken,the
Mayor is going to have to open it up for `Public Input'. Anywhere on the Agenda, where you bring something up
ad hoc for an official action, unless it meets one (1) of the exceptions." Attorney Garganese gave an example of
an Appointment being made during "Reports"; and if a Motion and Second were offered, then the Mayor would
need to then open"Public Input"up and once this was done, an official Vote could be taken."
With further comments, Manager Smith suggested the Agenda format be modified as in the following order:
100—AWARDS AND PRESENTATIONS
200—INFORMATIONAL AGENDA
PUBLIC INPUT
300-CONSENT AGENDA
400-REPORTS
500-PUBLIC HEARINGS AGENDA
600-REGULAR AGENDA
CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS,FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING-SEPTEMBER 23,2013 PAGE 16 OF 21
Manager Smith added, "If the Commission is agreeable to that, per your previous direction, we'd also like to
make that applicable to all your Boards and Committees." No objections were voiced.
Next, Commissioner Krebs referenced the earlier discussion on the Commission clarifying the voting and
Attorney Garganese noted, "You could clarify that in `I. E.' where Motions belong to the Commission, if the
Commission wanted to clarify that members of the City Commission can make the Motions. Once they're made,
they belong to the Commission as a body. I could add some language in there if you desire."
Continuing, Commissioner Krebs said to Manager Smith, "I think that is a great plan for how you recommended.
Furthermore, Commissioner Krebs thought that the second `Public Input' should probably remain on the
Agenda."
Discussion followed on Informational Agenda Items and also related to the second"Public Input", Commissioner
Carroll thought it was helpful and added, "I would be against eliminating it."
Mayor Lacey asked the City Commission, "Is there a Consensus that anyone would voice on whether to keep or
dispose the last `Public Input'?" Commissioner Hovey agreed to this as did Deputy Mayor Cade Resnick who
said,"Keep it." Mayor Lacey summarized,"I hear Consensus."
Attorney Garganese pointed out, "The way the Resolution is drafted, that second `Public Input' would be — the
way I wrote it, it's discretionary. Now, you still can mandate it through practice, but it's written as discretionary.
Now that's what I am recommending that you do."
Continuing, Attorney Garganese spoke further about the differences in the "Public Input" forums and noted, "The
first delegation of open forum would allow anybody to come in and speak on items that are on the Commission
Agenda; and then there are some others where citizens and taxpayers can come in and speak on matters of general
concern, employees can come and speak on employment issues. That second delegation/open forum—you don't
have that provision about speaking on items that are on the Agenda because they've already been dispensed
with."
Mayor Lacey noted, "So, the Resolution leaves the second `Public Input' as optional but the City Manager
prepares the Agenda and he knows the will of the Commission. If the will of the Commission ever changes, he
has the freedom to drop that off, without changing the Resolution; so, I think we're comfortable with that —
everyone?" No objections were voiced.
Attorney Garganese noted a minor typographical error on page 5 of the proposed Resolution in this Agenda Item,
the first line, there is language — "`a decision' - that language `a decision' is superfluous, that needs to just be
stricken. So, it should read, ...at which the City Commission shall take final official action on any
proposition,'..."
Mayor Lacey stated, "Is there a Motion to approve Resolution 2013-29 with the change in paragraph H?"
"SO MOVED." MOTION BY COMMISSIONER HOVEY. SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER

Manager Smith noted, "Although it is alluded to in the Resolution, although not specifically stated, I just want to
confirm that the Commission is good by Consensus with the new format order for the Agenda Items?"
Thus, with no objections voiced, the latest complete Agenda format as reviewed earlier by Manager Smith as just
modified and agreed to by the City Commission, going forward and using the typical wording would be as noted
below:
CALL TO ORDER
100 - AWARDS AND PRESENTATIONS
200 -INFORMATIONAL AGENDA

300 - CONSENT AGENDA
400 - REPORTS
500 - PUBLIC HEARINGS AGENDA
600 - REGULAR AGENDA

Commissioner Krebs then asked about the previous Motion and Attorney Garganese noted, "The way I heard it,
the typographical error was included in the Motion but not your suggestion that you brought up regarding
Motions.
"I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO INCLUDE CLARIFICATION ON VOTING AS WE
DISCUSSED EARLIER IN THIS DOCUMENT THAT WE JUST PASSED — THE RESOLUTION."
MOTION BY COMMISSIONER KREBS.
ATTORNEY GARGANESE NOTED, "LOOKING FOR LANGUAGE THAT STATES THAT
MEMBERS OF THE CITY COMMISSION MAY MAKE MOTIONS OR SHALL BE THE ONLY ONES
TO BE ABLE TO MAKE MOTIONS DURING THE MEETINGS..." COMMISSIONER KREBS
ADDED,"...AS YOU OPINED."
MAYOR LACEY SAID TO COMMISSIONER KREBS, "IS YOUR MOTION ASKING THE CITY
ATTORNEY TO COME BACK WITH LANGUAGE TO THAT EFFECT OR TO MODIFY
RESOLUTION 2013-29..." COMMISSIONER KREBS CONTINUED, "...RIGHT —AND INCLUDE IT
IN THAT."
ATTORNEY GARGANESE REFERENCED SECTION I. E.—"`Motions Belong to Commission.'. THAT
COULD BE MODIFIED TO STATE `MOTIONS SHALL ONLY BE PERMITTED BY MEMBERS OF
THE CITY COMMISSION.' AND THEN IT WILL CONTINUE ON WITH THE EXISTING
LANGUAGE—MOTIONS ONCE MADE AND SECONDED BELONG TO THE COMMISSION."
THE CITY CLERK WAS AKED TO RESTATE THE MOTION WHICH WAS DONE.
SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER BROWN. DISCUSSION.
MAYOR LACEY ASKED ATTORNEY GARGANESE IF HE UNDERSTOOD "THE MODIFICATIONS
THAT HAVE BEEN REQUESTED?"
CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS,FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING-SEPTEMBER 23,2013 PAGE 18 OF 21

PERMITTED BY MEMBERS OF THE CITY COMMISSION'."
FURTHER DISCUSSION ENSUED ON THE CHARTER, THE ROLE OF THE CITY ATTORNEY,
AND DIFFERING VIEWS.
ATTORNEY GARGANESE REMARKED, "NOTHING THAT I AM SAYING TONIGHT SUGGESTS
THAT THE MAYOR DOESN'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO SUGGEST AND/OR RECOMMEND THAT
A MOTION BE MADE." COMMISSIONER KREBS ADDED,"AGREED."
