Present:
The City Commission of the City of Sanfo'rd, Florida met in Regular Meeting on
September 9, 1991 at 7:00 o'clock P.M. in the City Commission Room, City Hall,
Mayor-Commissioner Bettye D. Smith
Commissioner Whitey Eckstein
Commissioner Robert B. Thomas
Commissioner A. A. McClanahan
Commissioner Lon Howell
Assistant City Attorney Donna L. McIntosh
City Manager William A. Simmons
City Clerk Janet R. Donahoe
Absent: City Attorney William L. Colbert
The Chairman called the meeting to order.
Public hearing to consider tentative Budget and gro~osedMillage for FY 91/92, as advertised
via Notice of ProDosed Property Taxes {TRIM) Notice), mailed b~ Property Appraiser.
Mayor Smith announced that the proposed millage rate of 6.8759 mills exceeds the
rolled-back rate by 12.3054%, which is necessary for the City to provide continuing level of
City Services in the face of inflation, and to meet the new demands associated with new
development.
The Chairman announced that the Commission would hear from those persons present
to speak in favor of, or in opposition to, said tentative Budget and proposed millage for FY
91/92.
Bill Suber, Seminole County Property Appraiser, appeared and reported that he is
responsible for determining the just value of property in Seminole County, that the law does
not provide any means for him to consider an owner's name, age, income level, etc., as part
of the appraisal process. Also, property must be reviewed on an annual basis to determine,
within specific guidelines, whether just value has been achieved by property class, that if
changes are deemed necessary then changes are made, even though said changes may appear to
be unfair and excessive. Further, he is very upset over events which have occurred the past
few days and weeks, that he accepts responsibility for increased valuations, and as a result
of some of those increased valuations, anincrease in some peoples' taxes. However, he will
not accept the responsibility or irresponsibility by the actions of a taxing authority, who
alone has the power to budget, and the power of taxation to fund that budget. Further,
fiscally responsible taxing authorities who are faced with the possibility of windfall tax
revenues should consider that and compensate by rolling back tax rates to a lower level.
Further, Seminole County has a large population of senior citizens who live on fixed income,
when property values are affected as drastically as some have been this year, senior citizens
are severely impacted. The City has the authority to reduce the budget to a level which is
fiscally responsible, which will reduce taxes on the City's citizens.
Commissioner McClanahan reported that the City realized an increase of 12.3054% in
real dollars over last year's ad valorem taxes, including new construction, that a lot of
properties went up, some went down, and some stayed the same, and that there had to be an
adjustment down as well as up, to end up with 6% to 10% variation across the board. Further,
'the City does not have the capacity or the capability to solve the problem of increased
property taxes, and that the City did not raise the millage or give a COLA.

City Commission, Sanford, Florida
7:00 PM September 9 19 91
Mr. Suber reported that the majority of properties in Sanford that experienced an
increase in value, increased between 20% and 70%. Further, the City of Sanford is no
different from any other City or jurisdiction in a small rural County in Florida where they
go through year after year with no sales, and no data which gives any indication that values
have ever changed. Also, 90% of all new properties in Seminole County, which are improved,
particularly residential, were built after 1970. Now, that actual sales are done on a day-
to-day basis, we have been able to determine the value of these older homes.
Mayor Smith reported that Sanford's millage rate has not increased over the last
three years. Mr. Suber concurred.
Bobbie Barrineau, 711 South Palmetto Avenue, appeared and reported that she
submitted 400 signatures prior to this evenings meeting, that she is able to pay her fair
share of taxes because she is still able to work, and that commercial properties should be
valued justly.
Bill Balzer, 222 Bradshaw Drive, appeared and reported that the homes in Country
Club Estates have been appraised 300% higher than last year, that his property was assessed
$13,000 more than last year, and that he has filed an appeal.
Dick Barnett, 2070 Grandview Avenue, appeared and reported that the focus of this
government should be on the ability of the people to pay for the kind of government they
should be receiving, and on the amount of money it would take to operate on that basis.
Mayor Smith reported that the General Fund is 13 million dollars, and that the ad
valorem taxes are a part of same.
Commissioner McClanahan reported that the information the City had in June, which
is the same information we have now, told what revenue the City could expect from ad valorem
taxes for the year 1991, it did not indicate where said taxes were coming from.
Harold Christensen, 1718 Magnolia Avenue, appeared and reported that he does not
like the services the City provides, and asked how many people in the audience received a 10%
or more tax increase; approximately 90 - 100 people raised their hands.
George Curry, 4030 Lake Harney Circle, Geneva, appeared and reported that he owns
properties in Sanford, and that a small percentage of the people are having to pay a large
amount of the taxes.
Mayor Smith asked for a show of hands from those individuals in the audience who
were opposed to the property assessments; approximately 10 people raised their hands, and how
many people in the audience were opposed to the 6.85 millage rate; approximately 5 people
raised their hands.
Vallie Cox, 609 East Second Street, appeared and reported that she did not believe
"people are the government" anymore.
Alfred DeLattibeaudiere, 807 Sanford Avenue, appeared and reported that he is very
dissatisfied with the inconsistencies of the City because some properties are exempt while
others are forced to pay.
Jane Davis, Upsala Road, appeared and reported that nothing can be done about high
tax appraisals, but something can be done about taxes. Also, she is opposed to the swimming
pool referendum.
Jane Chase, 3565 South Mellonville Avenue, appeared and reported that the
Commission knew there was going to be a 12% tax increase, and asked where the Commission
thought the money was coming from. Also, someone has to give the citizens some tax relief.

7mmm~.ss[oner McClanahan reported that several multi-family and single-family
properties came on line in 1990, that the 12% increase will maintain the present level of
services, and that inflation is City-wide.
Toni Jones, 105 West 21st Street, appeared and thanked the City for fixing the
stormwater drains around her house, and asked if City services include tree trimming and
building inspections.
Mayor Smith asked for a show of hands from those individuals in the audience who
were present to protest the millage; approximately eight to fifteen people raised their
hands.
Carem Gager, 1209 West 19th Court, appeared and asked if there was any way the
people could be given some tax relief, and if there was anything in the budget that could be
cut.
Mayor Smith stated that the budget is bare bones.
Viola Williams appeared and reported that she is being taxed out of her property,
that Sanford property has gone down in value, and that she wants the taxes lowered.
Jordan Beckner, 434 Scott Avenue, appeared and reported that overall taxes went
down by $500.00, and that the Commission is doing a good job.
