Mr. Stevenson presented this Agenda Item, referenced the "Wayfinding Signage" booklet and stated, "We wanted to give you an update, and as of today we're still working this thing through DOT (Department of Transportation), trying to speed up our Consultant, the National Sign Plazas -certainly before our next meeting, but hopefully within the next thirty (30) days, to get this thing finalized and bring us back something, and I will probably send you the update in an email on that, because we're to the point where we want to go ahead and get some of these things in the ground, especially the 'Tier l' signage and the 'Tier 2' signage and work with some of the businesses in the Town Center; and working to get some of the 'Tier 3' signage that we've talked about in the ground as well." Further brief remarks. Chairperson Mah asked about the "Tier 3" signage and whether it would be funded by the Town Center tenants or by the City of Winter Springs. Mr. Stevenson responded, "The maintenance management company has indicated they have some funds to do this; and we'd certainly be looking -at the very least, partnering with them on this 'Tier 3' signage. It is primarily to benefit the business owners or their tenants. We haven't worked out all the details." Furthermore, Chairperson Mah inquired, "At this point, do you have an estimate on the cost to manufacture and install this signage?" Mr. Stevenson noted that there were some design changes that had brought the costs down and pointed out, "We were funding this and had funded in the budget twenty-five thousand to thirty thousand dollars ($25,000.00 -$30,000.00) a year, which would give us a start."

Mr. Stevenson explained that the Trail would continue north, and there could be a small extension close to the Town Center. Furthermore, Chairperson Mah inquired if the location was close to the site of proposed Town Center overflow parking on Tuskawilla Road.

Mr. Stevenson responded, "What we can provide is our macro level, Conservation Overlay from the Comp[rehensive] Plan and from the FLUM (Future Land Use Map), and that's really just areas of greater concern that involves a little more study to determine whether they really are hydric or not."
