Our county has a most marvelous opportunity presented to it. This is a county where growth will certainly occur but it can be guided and planned in such a way as to maintain the lovely and gracious way of living that Seminole County has known and can still continue to know. I believe that definitive guidelines prior to annexing property should be considered and adopted by your city. I believe that certain goals must be set and that prior to annexation of any property those goals must be adopted. To this end I ask you and the Winter Springs City Council to decline any annexation petition or zoning changes execpt those of a non-substantial degree until reasonable, adequate and proper guidelines can be set forth. I would like to have the opportunity of presenting myself and those guidelines to your Council . I would appre- ciate being placed upon your agenda at your earliest convenience. Thank you very much for this opportunity. 5'I[•erely, 'e ...0 Bens n SB:hk August 24 , 1972 Apt. 104 H 300 Oxford Road Fern Park, Florida Honorable Granville Brown Winter Springs City Hall 1 N. Fairfax Road Winter Springs, Florida 32707 Dear Mayor Brown: As owners of Lot 23, Block M, North Orlando Ranches, on Williams Road, my husband and I would like to make a request for the grading of this road due to the fact that construction on our new home is scheduled to begin very shortly. The road's present condition will create difficulties for trucks carrying building materials to gain access to our lot. As an employee of the City of Casselberry, I am well aware that more heavily traveled roads receive top priority, but I would certainly appreciate any assistance possible as we are most anxious to get our new home built and become citizens of Winter Springs . Very truly yours , Mrs . Reid T. Thomas l ci Apt. 104 H 300 Oxford Road Fern Park, Florida September 12 , 1972 Councilman Charles Rowell City of Winter Springs 1 N. Fairfax Road Winter Springs , Florida 32707 Dear Councilman Rowell: My name is Reid Thomas, and as you may recall, I was present at your September 11th meeting regarding the request for grading of Williams Road. It was my feeling that there was a misunderstanding regarding this request which perhaps I did not clarify to the best of my ability. In hearing your attorney, Tom Freeman, speak, it sounded as if we had made a request for paving or some other drastic measure . Please let me try to present my case to you by explaining the sequence of events in this matter. Approximately one year ago, my wife and I purchased Lot 23, Block M, North Orlando Ranchlands , on Williams Road, from realtor Cliff Jordan. Before we purchased the land, though, we received a letter through the realtor from Mayor Brown stating that a building permit for a home would be issued on this lot providing the conditions of the Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances were complied with. For several years we had been saving to build a nice home in an area where we would have plenty of room, and in the last couple of months we reached a point where we were able to begin. On August 25th my wife sent a letter to Mayor Brown requesting this grading because construction was scheduled to begin, and we were aware that the trucks would probably have difficulty in the heavy sand. In fact, my wife talked to the City Clerk the very day the building permit was being prepared. Apparently no action was taken at this time, and we simply hoped for the best. Unfortunately, it took only a week or so before trucks started to become stuck. On the 8th and 9th of September we were at the site when a truck became stuck both times and the men spent more time digging Page 2 September 12, 1972 out of the sand than they did working on the house. This prompted us to pursue the matter further, and my wife talked to Mayor Brown the morning of the 11th, thus leading up to the meeting . From her talks with the Mayor and the September 11th meeting, it is beginning to look as if the City does not feel any responsibility for the maintenance of this road. I realize we were told it would be looked into, and we can only hope the results will be more promising than the forecast. You may say that we knew it was a dirt road when we bought the lot, and this is true. We didnt expect it to be paved anytime soon. But in the year that we owned the lot, we drove out there many times and were able to travel on the road by avoiding the sandy areas . We never expected it to be maintained at this time because there was no one living on it, and it was not necessary for the City to expend the funds. But if you have been out there , you will note that the road just before ours , Morton Lane, which has two houses on it, and most of the other roads in the Ranchlands , have been stabilized to some extent making them completely accessible , and it never occured to us that there would be any problem in having Williams Road treated in the same manner once people started building on it. If this was not to be the case , the City should never have issued a building permit, for if the road is not to be maintained, we will be unable to receive any other services such as garbage, delivery, emergency vehicles , etc. We are not asking for special treatment, or as your attorney implied, better service than existing residents , and neither do we believe we should be penalized for building "out in the middle of the woods" as Mr. Freeman calls it (which is not a true picture) . All we are asking is access to our home. You can see what a position this puts us in as young people building a home because all you gentlemen are aware of the high cost of construction. To expect us to haul in clay and hire contractors to stabilize a dedicated city road is out of the question, and since we have already begun construction, we must have a solution to this pressing problem. Please be good enough to consider this letter when you have your other facts and figures together in order to have a complete picture of this situation so you may render a fair decision. We would also appreciate notification if it is to be discussed further at a meeting. Thank you for your cooperation. xc: Councilmen Sinc rely, Fox, Piland, Sasser, y / and MillerR/ Mayor Brown eid T.
