CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS,FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING-MARCH 10,2014 PAGE 9 OF 18
FISCAL IMPACT:
While there is no direct fiscal impact to the City, staff is of the opinion that the proposed new code
language will facilitate more diversified and aesthetically pleasing advertising options in the US 17-92
corridor. These options may increase the advertising potential of local businesses and possible the City.
The signs also represent increased visibility for public service and emergency announcements.
COMMUNICATION EFFORTS:
This Agenda Item has been electronically forwarded to the Mayor and City Commission, City Manager,
City Attorney/Staff, and is available on the City's Website, LaserFiche, and the City's Server.

RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Commission approve second and final reading of Ordinance 2013-11, which
proposes to amend the City's regulations regarding off-premises signs located in the US 17-92 corridor,
commonly referred to as billboards. Staff would also recommend that the two signs referenced in the
Planning and Zoning Minutes of September 4, 2013 be addressed as a separate text amendment proposal
as these signs are contextually different than those along the US 17-92 Corridor and are also tied to the
Greeneway Interchange District and the proposed "Icon" signage along SR 417.
Ordinance 2013-11 was read by Attorney Garganese by"Title"only.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
503. Office of the City Manager
REQUEST:
The City Manager and City Attorney request that the City Commission consider adopting Ordinance No.
2014-07 granting a new franchise to Duke Energy Florida, Inc. for a term of 10 years to provide electric
utility service within the City of Winter Springs.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Ordinance maintains a franchise fee of six percent (6%) on "base revenue" which Duke Energy
receives from certain customers within the jurisdictional limits of the City. Duke Energy then spreads the
franchise fee paid to the City across their entire customer base within the jurisdictional limits of the City in
accordance with Public Service Commission regulations. Under the proposed Ordinance, the definition of
"base revenue" is modified to include industrial customers and City sponsored street lighting. Further, ad
valorem taxes paid to the City by Duke Energy will no longer be deducted from the franchise fee amount
owned the City. Based on historical customer data, this modification results in an increase of base
revenues as defined in the Ordinance. When the six percent franchise fee is calculated on the increased
base revenue amount and the ad valorem tax off-set is eliminated, the City anticipates that the gross
franchise fee paid to the City by Duke Energy will increase by approximately $6,000 per month/$72,000
per year. However,the gross franchise fees collected by the City are off-set by the amount of franchise fees
that the City actually pays on its electric utility invoice due to the collection method utilized by the electric
utility to proportionately spread the franchise fee required to be paid to the City over the entire electric
utility customer base within the City including the City. Further, the actual franchise fee amount paid is
subject to actual energy usage by customers within the City which has been on a significant downward
trend for several years.

This Agenda Item has been electronically forwarded to the Mayor and City Commission, City Manager,
City Attorney/Staff, and is available on the City's Website, LaserFiche, and the City's Server.

RECOMMENDATION:

REQUEST:
The Community Development Department—Planning Division requests that the City Commission hold a
Public Hearing for First Reading of both the Small-Scale Future Land Use Map Amendment and Rezoning
for approximately 5.22 acres, generally located north of State Road 434,west of Deleon Street as described
within Ordinances 2014-01 and 2014-02.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The proposed Small-Scale future land use amendment, which re-designates the property from Seminole
County "Rural-3" to City of Winter Springs "Low Density Residential"with a Conservation Overlay,will
provide additional taxable value to the City because this parcel serves as both open space and retention for
the proposed Southern Oaks development. The subject parcels are conducive to existing low density
residential development. The proposed stormwater retention pond and recreational uses designated for
this site are consistent with the Tri-Party Agreement between the City of Winter Springs, Seminole
County, and the property owner, and it has been determined to be the highest and best use of the subject
property and represents a redevelopment of the property.

DISCUSSION.
DEPUTY MAYOR RICK BROWN NOTED HIS OPPOSITION TO THIS TAX IN GENERAL AND DID
NOT THINK EVERYONE UNDERSTOOD THAT IT WAS NOT A WINTER SPRINGS TAX.
DEPUTY MAYOR RESNICK SPOKE FOR THE RECORD THAT HE HOPED TO HEAR FROM THE
SCHOOL BOARD AS TO WHETHER THEY WOULD DROP THE MILLAGE; TO WHICH
MANAGER SMITH MENTIONED THAT HE HAD ASKED ABOUT THIS A NUMBER OF TIMES.
DEPUTY MAYOR RESNICK THEN ADDED THAT THIS WAS A COUNTY ISSUE.
COMMISSIONER KREBS COMMENTED THAT SHE AGREED WITH HER FELLOW
COMMISSIONERS' COMMENTS,AND THAT IT WAS UP TO THE TAXPAYERS AS TO WHETHER
THEY PASS THIS PROPOSED TAX.
COMMISSIONER PAM CARROLL SAID SHE HAD RECENTLY HAD A CONVERSATION WITH
SEMINOLE COUNTY'S CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS ROBERT
DALLARI, AND SUGGESTED THE INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT BE ADJUSTED AS THE SCHOOL
BOARD GETS TWENTY-FIVE PERCENT (25%) OF THE PROPOSED TAX, IN ADDITION TO
THEIR MILLAGE RATE.
MAYOR LACEY REMARKED, "WHEN I FIRST HEARD OF THIS TAX COMING TOGETHER, I
WAS AT A MEETING WHERE THE SUPERINTENDENT OF THE SCHOOLS SAID, OR WHAT I
BELIEVE I HEARD HIM TO SAY, WAS THAT IF THIS PASSED, THEY CONSIDERED IT A FAIR
EXCHANGE TO REDUCE THEIR MILLAGE THAT IS APPROVED FOR THREE (3) MORE YEARS
DOWN TO ZERO (0), BECAUSE THAT WOULD ONLY BE THREE (3) YEARS WORTH OF
REVENUE VERSUS IF THE SALES TAX PASSES,THERE WOULD BE TEN(10)YEARS WORTH OF
REVENUE."
COMMISSIONER KREBS THOUGHT THAT THE SCHOOL BOARD SHOULD LIVE UP TO WHAT
THEY SAY AND AGREED WITH WHAT MAYOR LACEY JUST SAID.

DID NOT HAVE A BOOTH AT A RECENTLY HELD LOCAL EVENT WITH MARKETING
INFORMATION/COSTS ON THE REFERENDUM, TO WHICH CHAIRMAN DALLARI SAID THEY
DID NOT HAVE ANY INFORMATIONAL BROCHURES YET. COMMISSIONER CARROLL THEN
SAID THAT SHE WAS NOT IN SUPPORT OF HOW THE PROPOSED SALES TAX HAD BEEN
HANDLED THUS FAR.
