Mr. Gibson stated that he would check on it. Mr. Skat stated that Mr. Willard should not have opened his presentation the way he did by bashing staff. Mr. Gibson stated that there has been poor communication throughout this project and thanked Mr.. Skat for his support of the staff. Mr. Skat stated that he read in the Minutes that Seminole County received the letter regarding the issues along SR 46. Mr. Gibson reported that Kevin Grace acknowledged receipt of the City's letter and indicated that he forwarded it to Code Enforcement. Mr. Skat reported that he was advised that the vacant property next to Cattleman's where the vehicles are being parked/stored is located within Seminole County's jurisdiction. Mr. Gibson informed him that he spoke with Seminole County regarding the use of the vacant property. Mr, Volk reported several junk vehicles being parked at a storage facility south of SR46 on Airport Blvd. Mr. VonHerbuhs reported that he watched the Seminole County Planning & zoning Commission meeting on TV the other night and during the discussion of Celery Avenue, the county staff ran Sanford in the ground and they stated that they were surprised no one from Sanford was attendance at the meeting. Mr. Gibson informed the board that the City received a copy of the Joint Planning Agreement on Wednesday, which was the same day of the meeting. The County staff desired to have attendance by the City, however, in lieu of attendance they would accept written input. A letter was forwarded from the City acknowledging we were generally on the same page with their land use policies particularly along Celery Avenue. Part of the JPA did include transferring Celery Avenue to the City by 2008, but there was not sufficient information regarding the condition of the right -of -way to submit a recommendation to the City Commission. Mr. Gibson stated that he would call the county regarding this issue. Mr. Robert asked about the North White Cedar right -of -way acquisition. Mr_ Gibson reported that North White Cedar and Church Street are Seminole County rights -of -way and they are willing to defer to Sanford to improve North White Cedar Road. In speaking with Tom George, Public Works Director, he says it would be an additional burden on the City to maintain these roads, including Celery Avenue, because they do not meet the City's standards. There are opportunities for the City to work with developers in the area to contribute to the required improvements. ADJOURNMENT. There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 10:37 P.M.
