West 13th Street Recreation complex.
Howard Jeffries, Landscape Maintenance Coordinator, introduced Steve Harriett, Chief Deputy Sheriff for
Seminole County and Seminole County Deputy Sheriff Steve Algin.
Mr. Harriett reported that the City of Sanford and the Seminole County Sheriffs office have worked
together to enhance law enforcement services, especially in the Goldsboro neighborhood. As a result of his service in the
Goldsboro neighborhood, Deputy Steve Algin identified a need to create a park/recreation area for members of the
community. He developed the concept for a park and identified property in the 800 block of West 13th SWeet as a possible
site. He contacted the owners/heirs of the property and learned they were willing to donate the property, provided that it is
used for a community or civic minded purpose.
Deputy Algin said before the property can be developed, an environmental assessment will have to be done
because a gas station used to be located on the property.
City Manager VanDerworp said the estimated construction cost of the proposed project is $282,512.00, and
maintenance costs would be approximately $25,000.00 a year.
City Manager VanDerworp said an option for the use of the property would be a training incubator for the
development and training for small businesses, partnered with Seminole Community College to run the administration
offices.
City Manager VanDerworp said this year's budget does not include funds for this project, however, it could
be considered in next year' s budget.

Assessment.

Comprehensive Plan, and chan~inl~ the designation of property lying between 4th Street and 5th Street and between
Poplar Avenue and Pecan Avenue (401 Pecan Avenue) from Industrial to High Density Residential-20. Randall and
Deborah Grant, owners; The Grove Counseling Center, Inc./Larry Visser, Applicant/Agent
Larry Visser, President of The Grove Counseling Center, reported The Grove is an organization which serves
the community by leading the charge against substance abuse and undertaking prevention and rehabilitation programs for
youth and adults. The Grove is a business entity in the community which generates approximately $3,000,000.00 of revenue
per year, is a member of the Chamber of Commerce, and generates approximately $700,000.00 to $800,000.00 of grant funds
per year from State and Federal sources, most of which is spent in the City of Sanford and surrounding areas to promote
prevention activities.
Mr. Visser said that last year Representative Tom Feeney obtained over a million dollars through the Legislature
for the purpose of building an additional facility to provide for education and rehabilitation programs for youth who are in
trouble with the law. Mr. Feeney was also able to obtain a broad base of support from the construction community. Mr. Visser
said that after searching for a possible site for the facility, it was decided that 401 Pecan Avenue was most suitable. The

property, which has been vacant for several years, will be significantly improved with lighting, will be upgraded inside and
outside, and landscaped. There is a plan to have extra space in the building available for development of a police sub-station
and an area to be used for vocational programs.
Fred Leonhardt and Dean Cannon of Gray, Harris and Robinson were present to discuss the proposed plan for
The Grove Counseling Center facility. Mr. Cannon reported the requests are for a comprehensive plan amendment and a
fezone. At present, the property is zoned industrial and is surrounded on three sides by multi-family residential zoning. The
zoning request is to decrease the intensity of the land use from industrial to residential.
Mr. Visser said The Grove is tax exempt, however, contributions to the tax base are made through payroll and
the lease of property. Economic development will be achieved through the creation of jobs, improvement of the site, and
availability of the facilities for other uses such as employment training and educational services.
Commissioner Lessard said that the impact on public safety will be lessened because of the renovation. Acting
Police ChiefBronson said policing should be the same and the sub-station will increase visibility and be staffed by Community
Service officers.
Commissioner Willjams said she supports the project 100% because of the building improvements, job
opportunities, sub-station, and vocational training.
Mayor Dale said requirements will have to be met regarding the site plan, parking, retention pond, landscaping,
and aesthetic treatments and be reviewed by the appropriate process.
Tyrone Alexander, 16th Street, stated he opposes the development and that Goldsboro appears to be a dumping
ground. He said that Goldsboro has a mission, The Bridge, and a halfway house located on Eleventh and Mangoustine.
C. B. Franklin said he owns property across from the proposed facility and is concerned about the number of
policing stations which will be located in close proximity, however, he thinks The Grove has a good program.
Doreen Freeman, 705 Mellonville Avenue, said she has served as a volunteer hearing officer for the Prosecution
Alternatives for Youth Program for the past twenty years and can attest to the fact that~ agencies such as The Grove are very
necessary for troubled children. She said she supports the project.
Evelyn Davis, Chairperson for the Sanford Housing Authority Resident Patrol, said the Patrol has teamed with
the neighborhood to protect it against crime and related problems and sees The Grove Counseling Center as an asset to the
community and the neighborhood..
Rose Davis, 806 Orange Avenue, said she volunteers eighty hours per week with youth in the Goldsboro area
and said The Grove has been very successful in reaching out to the community. She said the residential treatment unit will
be a great asset to the community.
Mayor Dale said taxes in Sanford are the highest in Florida and the tax base is the lowest. In order to bring
economic prosperity and opporUmities, the tax rate must be lowered. He said it is necessary to be careful when planning the
master plan for the Goldsboro area, and to view budget constraints, the economic modeling program, and the master plan for
citizens in Sanford's disadvantaged areas. He said that every project that comes along is a going to be a good project, but it
is going to be a drain because of lack of taxes and cost of services. Mayor Dale said he doesn't mind taking care of Sanford's
citizens, however, we have to look at all of the social services in Sanford. There are many properties in Sanford that are not
taxed and are a burden.

Resolution of purchase of lot from C. B. Franklin.
City Manager VanDerworp recommended the partial release of $7,972. in liens applied to Mr. C. B. Franklin's
lot on the southeast corner of 13th Street and Oleander Avenue, parcel identification number 35-19-30-503-0000-0570. The
partial release of liens will allow the City to proceed with purchase of the property to rectify a long standing intrusion onto
the property by the City' s ditch and road paving.
On recommendation of the City Manager, Commissioner Eckstein moved to authorize the partial release of
$7,972.00 in liens applied to Mr. C. B. Franklin's lot on the southeast corner of 13th Street and Oleander Avenue, parcel
identification number 35-19-30-503-0000-0570. Seconded by Commissioner Williams.
Mayor Dale asked Mr. Franklin if he understood that the liens applied to other properties he owns will remain.
Mr. Franklin said he should be given consideration by the City and be compensated for the years he has been
cleaning the ditch and for the City encroaching upon his property.
Commissioner Eckstein withdrew his motion.
City Attorney Colbert said the purchase of the property would render moot any claim that Mr. Franklin could
have for prior acts, because the City would be paying fair market value for the property. He said that Mr. Franklin's
maintaining City property would be considered as lan act of a volunteer, not a compensable act. Further, he could not
recommend that the City forgive any indebtedness that is owed because of the precedent that would be set.
Commissioner Willjams moved to authorize the purchase of Mr. C. B. Franklin's property located on 13th
Street and Oleander for $7,000.00, to authorize the partial release of $7,972.00 in liens on the same, with liens to remain on

Approval and execution of Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) A~reement.
Commissioner Eckstein said he was concerned about the City administering the LIHEAP program for Seminole
County, about the program not being cost effective, and that the City was exposed to liability because the City administered
the program.
Charles Rowe, Director of Community Development, said the LIHEAP program is county wide and it does pay
for itself. The grant provides administration dollars that totally supports the salary for the Outreach Specialist and partially
supports the salary of the Contracts Coordinator. The grant provides $158, 951.00 for L1HEAP activities. The U.S.
Department of Energy funds this program to assist clients with income at or below 125% of the poverty threshold as set by the
federal government. Preference is given to households with elderly or handicapped individuals. Clients may receive home
energy assistance for their electric bill once every twelve months and crisis assistance once per season (winter and summer),
provided there are funds available and that they do indeed have a crisis situation. The Community Development Department-
assisted 1,174 households with weather related assistance, 1,004 households with home energy assistance, and 344 households
with crisis assistance. The majority of clients assisted with this program are residents of the City of Sanford.
Mayor Dale said he is opposed to the City administering a County grant and to harassment he receives from
residents outside of Sunford.
Mr. Rowe said the majority of the people the LIHEAP program serves live inside the Sanford city limits,
although the availability of the grant is published in the Seminole Herald and the Orlando Sentinel and notices are sent to
churches throughout Seminole County.
After discussion, Commissioner McClanahan moved to approve and execute the Low Income Home Energy
Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Agreement for fiscal year 1999-2000, and that a statistical report be provided with the next
request. Seconded by Commissioner Eckstein and carried by vote of the Commission as follows:

The Oasis, Phase HI open space, faces Brisson Avenue and The Hamlet plan shows attached housing with double frontage
lots that front on Brisson Avenue. The Land Development Code requires a specific setback on Brisson Avenue, therefore, a
dedication of additional tight-of-way for Brisson Avenue would be necessary. The Oasis plan shows a very large retention area
between the commercial tract and the multi-family area and a screen wall is required to provide a buffer, which is not shown
on The Hamlet plan. The Oasis plan shows a two-way access road on Celery Avenue and The Hamlet plan shows one way

shows 15 feet in some areas. The Hamlet plan deviates from the Land Development Regulations requirement of two off street
parking spaces per unit. Land Development Regulations require landscape buffers, an entrance feature, handicap requirements,
open space of thirty percent, and a paved recreational vehicle storage area in the multi-family area.
After discussion, Commissioner Eckstein stated The Hamlet Preliminary Master Plan is a substantial deviation
from the approved Oasis Master Plan and moved to require that the Preliminary Master Plan of The Hamlet meet the Land
Development Regulations and substantially comply with the approved Oasis Master Plan. Seconded by Commissioner
McClanahan.
Candace Birle, Chief Executive Officer of the Wyman Fields Foundation, reported the preliminary plan
submitted to Engineering and Planning in August 1998 was very preliminary and a site plan for the apartments and another
subdivision plan are yet to be submitted. She said the approved Oasis Master Plan did not have a developer's agreement.
Mayor Dale said the purpose of approving a preliminary subdivision plan is that it can be relied upon for the
approval of a final plat if it is presented in substantial conformity.
