PUBLIC HEARINGS AGENDA- PART I OF II
PUBLIC HEARINGS
500. Finance and Administrative Services Department
REQUEST:
The City Manager is requesting that the City Commission hold a Public Hearing relative to the approval of
Resolution No. 2014-18,which establishes the Tentative Operating Millage Rate for Fiscal Year 2014-2015
for the City of Winter Springs at 2.4300 mills which is 4.82% more than the rolled-back rate of 2.3183
mills and the Tentative Voted Debt Service Millage Rate for Fiscal Year 2014-2015 for the City of Winter
Springs at 0.1100 mills.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The decision to levy an operating millage rate of 2.4300 mills as opposed to the rolled-back rate of 2.3183
mills will result in additional ad valorem General Fund revenues of approximately $188,000 (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$13,000 the need
for which would have been greater had the Central Winds General Obligation Bond not been refinanced in
2012.

No Report.
REPORTS
401. Office Of The City Manager—Kevin L. Smith
Manager Smith spoke of upcoming Appointments related to the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee and
the Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee's Terms of Office which are expiring in November of 2014 and
January 2015 respectively; and then noted that currently both Committees do not have staggered terms, thus all
five(5) Seats on the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee expire in November 2014, and all nine (9) Seats
on the Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee expire in January 2015.
Further comments followed on staggering the Terms, and if the City Commission wished to make any changes to
theses Advisory Committees,whether an Ordinance was needed to make such changes.
Mayor Lacey thought that getting fourteen (14) citizens to volunteer during approximately the same time period
might be difficult and mentioned that staggered Terms would be his preference. Commissioner Carroll agreed
and referenced the original Ordinance which referenced a "Cross-section of things related to the topic of Parks
and Recreation and I wanted to request that we not stray from that,when we all are considering a vacant spot."
Discussion followed on specific slots for some Boards and Committees. Commissioner Carroll added, "If a
summary of the paragraph that stated the goals from the original Ordinance was shared with all of us by Andrea
(Lorenzo-Luaces, City Clerk),then we could just refresh our memories as to what kind of people we might like to
seek." Manager Smith stated, "Happy to do so."
Commissioner Carroll commented on the City Commission being provided with any Advisory Board and
Committee Applications that are on file; and those that come in to the City when new Advisory Board and
Committee Applications are received; and that the City Commission could receive any Advisory Board and
Committee Applications with all applicable categories marked. Related to the Parks and Recreation Advisory
Committee, Commissioner Krebs suggested that the City Clerk give the Advisory Board and Committee
Applications to the Mayor and Commissioners and they can consider the categories and the Applicants for
available positions.
Discussion followed on staggering terms with City Attorney Anthony A. Garganese, and Commissioner Cade
Resnick asked if there was enough time to do staggering of Terms via an Ordinance.
Mayor Lacey asked the City Commission, "Would you like to see the Manager bring back a recommendation for
discussion at a later meeting?" Mayor Lacey added, "To change the Terms" for the Bicycle and Pedestrian
Advisory Committee and the Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee. Commissioner Krebs stated, "No."
Commissioner Krebs added, "I am fine with the way that it is."
Furthermore, asking for Consensus from the City Commission, Mayor Lacey stated, "Is everyone fine with the
way that it is?" Deputy Mayor Brown voiced his agreement. No objections were stated.
Mayor Lacey summarized that we will be looking at five (5) Appointments in November for the Bicycle and
Pedestrian Advisory Committee)and nine(9) in January for the Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee.

Advisory Committee and then the Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee Members and bring the information
back to the City Commission including what Commissioner Carroll suggested for possible Appointments.
REPORTS
403. Office of Commissioner Seat Two/Deputy Mayor—The Honorable Rick Brown
Deputy Mayor Brown asked what it would take to light the Dog Park for increased usage and summarized, "What
it would cost or what the appropriate time frames would look like as we continue Orange Avenue down into that
area and when it would be appropriate to do so but with Consensus I would like to ask that we look a little bit
further into that and come back with some concrete ideas on when that might be able to be accomplished,
budgetary and timing."
Commissioner Hovey said she had had some similar inquiries and noted, "I am in agreement. I think we should
look into the cost and see and see what it would cost..." Deputy Mayor Brown added, "...At least get it in the
planning." Commissioner Hovey agreed with this.
Commissioner Krebs brought up Parks and Recreation Department Staff locking up the parks and what costs
would be involved. Manager Smith agreed with this. Commissioner Hovey thought that someone from Staff
would probably be already there with baseball games.
Mayor Lacey then remarked, "I think we would get that back in a recommendation from the Manager when he has
done a more comprehensive review of it—so the question is, is there any objection to asking the Manager to take
a look at this issue?" Commissioner Krebs and Commissioner Carroll stated, "No objection." No one voiced any
objection and Deputy Mayor Brown stated, "Thank you."
Next, Deputy Mayor Brown spoke of a previous city-wide Wi-Fi discussions and with further comments on our
franchise service provider here locally and Deputy Mayor Brown asked, "What it would cost if anything, to
partner with them on providing especially in our larger common areas,the Wi-Fi capabilities, Central Winds Park,
the Town Center, Trotwood, anyplace where people gather."
Mayor Lacey mentioned bright house NETWORKSTM has a map of public hot spots for their clients, to which
Deputy Mayor Brown said he would like to see such a plan. Commissioner Hovey mentioned not everyone is a
bright house NETWORKSTM customer.
Commissioner Krebs spoke of previous interest in this matter and previous discussion and asked, "Would that be
something that would attract some businesses that we are a city that has Wi-Fi available in large areas? I mean
could we look into that? That would be great."
Deputy Mayor Brown spoke of his request and suggested, "Consensus to have Staff look into that and come back
at the appropriate time with a recommendation on it—a go forward, no go forward, further study." Commissioner
Resnick added, "Since we asked for something to come back to us when Staff was able to put something together,
two (2) weeks ago, could we just add that to the list?" Deputy Mayor Brown stated, "Fine with me." No
objections were voiced.
Mayor Lacey then remarked, "Mr. Smith, you I think were preparing a general technology update anyway, so can
you add in the status of municipal Wi-Fi nationwide, and in Winter Springs?" Manager Smith said he would.
Mayor Lacey asked if there were any objections and none were voiced.
CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS,FLORIDA MINUTES CITY COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING-SEPTEMBER 8,2014 PAGE 12 OF 20

and Domestic Abuse awareness and he would get more details to the City Commission as the dates gets closer,
but tentatively is planned for October 4`", 2014 from 5:00—9:00 p.m.
Commissioner Krebs asked how Veterans can find out about Honor Flight and Deputy Mayor Brown said he
would get the information to the City Clerk to share with the City Commission. Commissioner Krebs thought it
would be great to have a car in the parade with Winter Springs Veterans. With further comments, Commissioner
Carroll mentioned a "Tuscawilla Today" July article she worked on and would send it to Deputy Mayor Brown,
which might help get information out.

Amendment which proposes to change the Future Land Use Map designation on one parcel totaling
approximately 1.16 acres in size, located at 1244 Orange Avenue from Seminole County "Low Density
Residential"to City of Winter Springs"Town Center",and 2) second reading of Ordinance 2014-20,which

County "Low Density" to City of Winter Springs "Town Center" and rezoning from Seminole County R-1
(Single-family dwelling district) to City of Winter Springs Town Center T3 (Suburban Zone),will provide
additional taxable value to the City, and lessen an existing enclave that is located in the Town Center. The
