WORK SESSION JUNE 14 19 99 The City Commission of the City of Sanford, Florida met in Work Session on Monday, June 14, 1999, at 3:30 o'clock P.M. in the City Manager's Conference Room, Sanford City Hall, 300 North Park Avenue, Sanford, Florida. Present: Mayor-Commissioner Larry A. Dale Commissioner Whitey Eckstein Commissioner Velma H. Williams Commissioner Brady Lessard Commissioner A. A. McClanahan City Manager Tony VanDerworp City Clerk Janet R. Dougherty Absent: City Attorney William L. Colbert The Chairman called the meeting to order. Employee of the Month Award for June, 1999. Mayor Dale presented Robert Beall with the Employee of the Month Award for June, 1999. Mill Creek Phase 3B Project - Pond Agreement with Bishop & Buttrey. City Manager VanDerworp reported there had been discussion regarding building a retention pond for Mill Creek. Bishop & Buttrey, Inc., an excavation company, approached the City regarding having a joint project for a sixty-five acre borrow pit/retention pond. At the last City Commission Work Session, Bishop & Buttrey proposed that they acquire Sandefur Trust's property, and permit and construct the pit/pond along with associated City designed pipes and structures for a sum of $1,024,000., which included a $200,000. allotment for grassing, fencing, and City required drainage structures. Bishop & Buttrey proposed to sell the fill material to one of the contractors for the "missing link" of the beltway. The ,Commission indicated the price was too high and requested Bishop & Buttrey reconsider their price. Jerry Herman, Director of public Works, distributed a proposal from Bishop & Buttrey to construct a sixty-five (65) acre retention pond/borrow pit, with on-site drainage structures, grassing, and fencing, at the cost of $949,000.00. Mr. Herman reported that Paul Porter, Conklin, Porter & Holmes Engineers, prepared cost comparisons between the original plan for 10 acres, the borrow pit system on the full 65 acres, and the use of only the eastern pit, which:is about 20 acres. The original plan involved a minimal purchase of property and would require digging a pond of about 8 acres in size. The pond area would involve the excavation of 4.61 acres ofwetland area, and therefore, mitigation is required. The ,total cost for the original plan (10 acres) is $1,175, 104.96 and includes construction, land cost, tuff maintenance, and wetland maintenance. : ~ The total cost for the 65 acre borrow pit plan is $1,169,200..45 and includes construction, land cost, and turf maintenance. The total cost for the 20 acre borrow pit plan is $1,061,509.40 and includes construction, land cost, and turf maintenance. While the 65 acre site increases long term maintenance costs, there are substantial savings in mitigation/permitting, contract development, and administration time/expenses. Also, the larger pond has approximately three times the retention capacity, which will greatly reduce potential flooding. After discussion, the Commission concurred that an agreement be submitted for approval at the next :Commission Meeting. Police Department 1998 Annual Summary. City Manager VanDerworp reported the Police Department 1998 Annual Summary includes a S.C.O:P.E. report (Sanford Community Oriented Policing Effort), and that community service areas have been set up in the geographical area of Goldsboro, the Georgetown community, and the downtown business district. The Uniform Crime Report Statistics Zshow a 50% decrease in violent crimes reported over the period covering the first quarter of 1997 to the first quarter of 1998, and !the arrest E718672 MINUTES City Commission, Sanford, Florida 3:30 P.M. WORK SESSION JUNE 14 19 99 rate was up 8%. All violent crimes experienced an overall decrease with the exception of homicides which went from one to four; armed robberies increased by 6%; sexual battery decreased 20%; burglary decreased 24%; auto thefts decreased 2%; and robberies decreased 44%. Index crimes had an overall dearante rate of 45.2% for 1998. Community Oriented Policing should further reduce crime rates. In response to Mayor Dale' s question regarding tracking drug activity, Acting Police Chief Larry Monti reported the QUAD Unit made 958 arrests during 1998 which include 293 for possession of a coreroiled substance, 71 for sale and delivery/purchase of a controlled substance, 6 for Vice, 160 for felony, and 428 for misdemeanor. From 1997 to 1998, there was an increase of 13% in the number of arrests by the QUAD Unit. Commissioner Williams requested a breakdown of the types of crimes committed in Goldsboro proper; Mayor Dale requested a breakdown for all areas. City Manager VanDerworp said that implementation of the CSA Program will provide tracking of trends and sub-trends and geographical information and that a different type of report will be provided the next time. American Heritaee Riven Initiative Draft Partnership Aereement. Jay Marder, Director of Engineering & Planning, reported the draft American Heritage Rivers Initiative Partnership Agreement between The St. Johns River Community, State, Regional and Federal Agencies is dated May 10, 1999, with comments due June 10, 1999. He said there will be an opportunity to become a participant in the program and he would like to send a letter to the River Navigator stating that the draft partnership agreement appears satisfactory and that the City of Sanford looks forward to the oppommity to participate in the American Heritage Rivers Program. The Commission concurred that Mr. Marder send a letter acknowledging receipt of the draft and stating that the City is looking forward to the final draft. Mayor Dale said the City should be proactive in having a representative on the Executive Committee, since Sanford is one of the major cities on the St. Johns River. The Commission concurred that Mayor Dale send a letter requesting representation on the Executive Committee. [Mayor Dale left the meeting.] Zoning Permitted Uses for SC-3, Special Commercial District. Jay Marder, Director of Engineering & Planning, reported that in March, 1999, the Commission requested review of the City's Zoning Code relating to permitted uses within the various zoning districts. The review is iraended to be city-wide and would begin with the downtown area, specifically the SC-3, Special Commercial Zone. He said the main change would be the establishment of a public benefit social service facility as a land use which would require permitting by a conditional use permit, and approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Commission. The public benefit social service facilities include soup kitchens, homeless shelters, food distribution activities, and community residential homes and residemial care facilities involving persons who have been involved in criminal activity, alcohol/substance abuse rehabilitation and the like, and excludes community residential homes and residential care facilities. A new category of temporary/day labor services has been defined that excludes typical employment offices. Such use is proposed to be a conditional use. Because temporary/day labor services are defined as a new land use category, such sewices are thereby excluded from the term business and professional office wherein such uses are presently classified as employment offices. The following categories are proposed to change from permitted to a conditional use: day care facilities for six or more individuals, residential care facility with fifteen or more residents, outdoor non-commercial amusement facility, ~hUrch, and retail sales and service regarding outdoor display. [ Mayor Dale returned.] In order to provide some standards and criteria for social service facilities, it is proposed that there be compatibility standards for public benefit soci01 seryice facilities, one of which is that there be a separation of at least 1,500 feet E718672 MINUTES City Commission, Sanford, Florida 3:30 P.M. WORK SESSION JUNE 14 1999 from any other activity that the Administrative Official determines to be another public benefit social service facility. Commissioner Eckstein requested that City Attorney Colbert review the proposed changes to the SC-3 Zoning District to be sure there are no violations of Florida Statutes. City Manager VanDerworp said that once the changes are reviewed by City Attorney Colben, an ordinance will be drafted for review by the Planning and Zoning Commission, which will make recommendation to the City Commission. Consideration of an ordinance re: Loitering to Engage in Prostitution Activity. City Manager VanDerworp said there is an ordinance in California which deals with loitering to engage in prostitution, and it was thought that a similar ordinance could be considered for Sanford. However, from the time the Agenda was published and today's meeting, the Supreme Court struck down an ordinance in Chicago which mimics the California ordinance regarding loitering to engage in prostitution activity. The City Manager recommended the removal of this item from the Agenda, and that it be tabled for future consideration. Excessive calls for public safety. City Manager VanDerworp reported that at the August 10, 1998 Work Session, the Commission directed Staff to identify options for properties which have an excessive number of calls for police service. The Police Department budget uses over 90% of the ad valorem taxes received by the City. Since 1995, the cost of police services has increased by 3.7%. Thirteen properties were sampled which ranged from 9 calls per year to 224 calls per year, indicating certain properties have an excessive number of calls for service. The City Attomey researched ordinances in other jurisdictions experiencing similar demand for repeat services to individual properties. The drat~ ordinance was patterned after the Daytona Beach Shores ordinance which set up a user charge primarily aimed at the property owner. City Manager VanDerworp said the proposed ordinance language in Section 3 should be changed to exclude calls that are initiated by the property owner since they are actually working with law enforcement to solve the problems with their business/residence. He also recommended that once a police officer has found a business or resident that is in violation of this ordinance, that a complaint be filed with the Citizen's Advisory Board which will make a recommendation as to whether or not the property owner is actually in violation of the ordinance. Having a separate entity such as the Citizen' s Advisory Board will provide a safeguard for citizens so they will not feel that law enforcement is specifically targeting them as a nuisance. The City Manager said the domestic violence issue has not been addressed as it relates to calls for service. He said he did not want to thwart the process of people calling for police service, especially in a domestic violence case. Commissioner Lessard said the statistics of consumption of police services by a tiny percentage of the City's residents is shameful. The survey provided in the Police report discussed earlier indicated that 51% of the respondents to their survey did not need police service all year, however, 7% have used police service over twelve times. In response to Commissioner Eckstein's question as to who will keep track of the number of calls to a property, Acting Police Chief Monti said there is a computer data base which tracks the number and type of police calls for service to a particular property. Commissioner Willjams said the main goal and obligation of the Police Department is to protect and serve, and shouldn't be based on the number of calls made for police service. A wrong message is sent to people, some who are not responsible for their conditions in life or where they live or who they are. While it was not the intent to discriminate against any particular group, most of the kinds of calls discussed occur in low income and depressed areas, and it is a given that those E718672 MINUTES City Commission, Sanford, Florida 3:30 P.M. WORK SESSION JUNE 14 1999 individuals will have the greatest negative impact, so it can be perceived that way. She said that no citizen should be subjected to having to be cognizant about the number of calls placed for police service, nor be subjected to possessing fears as a result of the calls. Commissioner Lessard said the ordinance causes the property owner to be responsible for their property. Oscar Redden, resident of and property owner in Sanford, said he wants a partnership between the police and the citizens. He said the theory of the ordinance is good, however, he feels it would be counter productive and would not serve the City where the overall objective is concerned. Commissioner Eckstein said his big concern with the ordinance is that people will not call for police service, and one call not made could result in someone being killed. A citizen should feel flee to call the police for any reason without the concern of being charged. Commissioner Lessard said his concern is for the number of citizens left unprotected because countless resources are being spent on a handful of properties. He said that irresponsible property owners who play host to crime should reimburse the City. Commissioner Williams said she understands what Commissioner Lessard is trying to accomplish and the intentions are good, and that the City should be proactive and be a role model, but not at the expense of someone getting hurt. Commissioner MeClanahan said if he thought the ordinance would solve the problem he would vote for it, but he doesn't think the ordinance would make one iota of difference. Commissioner Eckstein said the purpose of community policing is to target the areas which need policing and to eliminate the problems. Mayor Dale said he doesn't want someone to not call the police, and encourages people to call, however, there should be a proactive way to deal with a property owner who continually has nuisance complaints which the property owner can control. Oscar Redden said the police asked property owners to install lighting on their buildings that have a blind side which criminals use to engage in illegal activities, in order to make the area more accessible and safer for the police. For the property owners who responded, there was an immediate decrease in the crime in that area. He said if property owners are asked by the police to cooperate, and the owner refuses, then the City should have recourse. [Commissioner McClanahan briefly lei~ the meeting and returned.] Corporal Mike Taylor said the Community Policing Officers and Community Service Officers are being proactive in their areas by working with property owners to solve problems and decrease the number of calls for police service. After discussion, the Commission concurred to be proactive in preventing the need for excessive calls, utilizing Community Oriented Policing and other means. [The Commission took a twenty-five minute break.] 15th Street Community Service Center. City Manager VanDerworp reported the Center is open and operational from 8:30 - 4:30 on Monday through Friday, and is staffed by Community Service Officer Tracy Jackson. There is a tentative grand opening date of June 25, 1999. Y2K Status of City. Donna WaR, Finance Director, reported all computers have been tested for compliance and all hardware systems are determined to be Y2K compliant. There may be a few computers that would require physically changing the date. The voice E718672 MINUTES City Commission, Sanford, Florida 3:30 P.M. WORK SESSION JUNE 14 5 1999 mail system is not compliant, however, the software will be replaced in October. The utility system has been evaluated and systems that may not be Y2K compliant are being replaced and should be completed by October or November. All software through HTE is compliant with the exception of utility billing, however, the compliant version is in the test stage and will be implemented in July. The eonfmgency plan for the Finance Department will be to back up all system data as well as application software backup, and will run a hard copy of financial information needed in an emergency should there be failure. The departments will be asked to write a contingency plan for their department. Goldsboro street lights. Charles Rowe, Director of Community Development, reported the Commission authorized the Community Development Department to submit a CDBG application to Seminole County for additional street lights and street light upgrades in the Goldsboro neighborhood. Florida Power & Light is currently calculating the cost for the additional lights and wattage increases. Information received from F P & L indicates that if the wattage is increased to 400 watts, the 400 watt lights can not be protected with vandalism guards, and if the lights are damaged as a result of vandalism, the cost for replacement (approximately $300.) will be the responsibility of the City. Lights that are 200 watt or less can be fitted with the vandalism guards. After discussion, the Commission concurred with Staff's recommendation to install the 400 watt lights. Regular Agenda items, Add-on items, and other items. A. The City Manager reviewed Item C-10 regarding the donation of, insurance for, and maintenance of a 1991 Ford Aerostar van to be used for the Sanford Police Explorer Program. B. The City Manager reported additional information regarding Item PH-7, the First Comprehensive Plan Amendment for 1999, which daftties that there will be specific sites designated for resource protection areas. Board appointments. The Mayor reported there are board appointments for the Code Enforcement Board, the Scenic Improvement Board, and the Waterfront Master Plan Steering Committee. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned. Attest: ep 6 E718672 MINUTES City Commission, Sanford, Florida 7:00 P.M.

Mayor Dale presented Senator Buddy Dyer with a plaque of appreciation for his outstanding responsiveness and proven commitment to the City of Sanford and Seminole County during the State of Florida 1998-1999 Legislative Session. Senator Dyer thanked the Commission for the plaque and said he will hang it in his Tallahassee office. He gave the Commission an ovendew of the 1998-1999 Legislative Session. Citizen participation. A. Leon Brooks, 1405 Valencia Court East, Sanford, Florida, showed his utility bill to the Commission and complained about the cost of utilities, especially the sewer flow. He said that his area should have the availability of reclaimed water and that a program should be made available for him to have it, whatever the cost. Commissioner Eckstein said that every neighborhood was given the opportunity to sign up for reclaimed water. He requested that Staff provide information to the Commission regarding how many people signed up for reclaimed water in Mr. Brooks' neighborhood. Mayor Dale told Mr. Brooks that a program will be offered to him in the next few days. Commissioner Williams suggested that all people be made aware that reclaimed water is available and let them decide if they are willing to pay the cost. B. Linda Kuhn, Executive Director of Sanford Main Street, invited the Commission and the audience to Sanford Main Street's Street Fest this Saturday at 6:00. The event will feature classic cars, music, and an old fashioned fish fry. C. Bemard Mitchell, 1327 Douglas Street, reported he had previously surveyed the Washington Oaks area, Mellonville Avenue and Do, .uglas Street, and learned that about fifty people signed up for reclaimed water and were refused during the time when it was being installed in other areas.

Mr. Rowe said he received an updated title report which shows that Mr. Nobles is the owner of the property. Sam Nobles was present and reported he made title transfer of the property, that he met with Dan Florian, and that his engineer made an assessment of the property and prepared plans. He said he is trying to obtain financing to make the repairs. The property is feasible to be fixed, and wouldn't have been as much to repair if it could have remained a duplex instead of having to be remodeled to single family. He said he still doesn't understand why there are duplexes and a triplex that surround his property yet he isn't allowed to have a duplex. After discussion, Commissioner Williams recommended that Mr. Nobles be given an opportunity to make the repairs since the property is now in his name. Commissioner Williams moved to authorize thirty days for Mr. Nobles to provide a plan, certified by an engineer, to the Building Division of the Community Development Department.

Keller, Secretary for Monterey Oaks, Inc., as General Partner, is located at 744 Highland Avenue, Orlando, Florida, 32803. Mr. Keller's phone number is 407-648-8541. 2. Site is located on the west side of Upsala Road, south ofthe existing Country Club Park subdivision. Site is approximately 14.883 acres and vacant at present. 3. The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously approved the Final Plat on May 6, 1999 subject to the following conditions and stipulations: · Addition of a note on the plat prohibiting future access to Upsala Road near Dogwood Drive from the proposed Spanish Bay Drive right-of-way. · Six foot concrete/masonry wall along entire eastern property line. A note has been added to the plat prohibiting future access to Upsala Road near Dogwood Drive. As for the stipulation of a subdivision wall along the entire eastern property line, this requirement is not within the general purview of a final plat review and was not a requirement on the approved Subdivision Improvement Plan nor on the Preliminary Subdivision Plan except for that portion of the property that fronts directly onto the Upsala Road right-of-way. It is recommended that the wall requirement not be considered part of the plat approval since the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation for a wall along the entire eastern property line save for that portion ffonting Upsala Road is inconsistent with the approved Prelinfinary Subdivision Plan and the subdivision requirements as set forth in the City' s Land Development Regulations. 4. Prior to the recording of the Final Plat, the installation, completion and maintenance of all required subdivision improvements shall be guaranteed in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Official and in conformity with all applicable provisions of the City' s Land Development Regulations.

Mayor Dale passed the gavel to Vice-Mayor Eckstein and seconded the motion. A man said he had a problem with the ordinance because homeowners shouldn't be charged for calling for police service. A woman said there are a lot of problems with the proposed ordinance, that citizens provide jobs for the local police agency, and that it is ridiculous to pay for assistance already being paid for by the citizens. Secondly, the majority of emergency calls come from the west side of town, and that shows bias. She suggested that the ordinance be further reviewed, because the only thing that fits into the ordinance regards loud music. She said that an article in yesterday's paper said that the City is trying to lure businesses, but if businesses were to see the proposed ordinance, they would turn away. She said that citizens already pay taxes which provide jobs for the Police Department whose responsibility is to serve and protect. Commissioner Lessard said he wants people in the community to understand why he proposed the ordinance. He said there is a property in Sanford that had 224 police responses in one .year, and that the property owner should share the burden with the rest of the tax payers. He said there are seven to ten properties in Sanford that consume hundreds of police calls per year. Joan Campbell, 229 Yale Drive, Sanford, Florida, said if the Police Department was patrolling the areas that have excessive calls for sendee, there would not be constant problems in those areas. She said the ordinance should be nixed. Commissioner W'~liams said that she doesn't support the ordinance but understands the purpose, and there should be other means to solve the problems, such as Community Policing. She said the purpose of the Police Department is to serve and protect, and that all citizens should feel they are valued and should not have to worry about maintaining a log of how many calls they make for police service, thereby resuking in fear and possibly refraining from calling for police service. Linda Kuhn said there was a case in California regarding absentee land owners who were allowing public 14 E718672 MINUTES City Commission, Sanford, Florida 7:00 P.M. REGULAR MEETING JUNE 14 19 99 nuisances to take place on their property. The purpose of the ordinance is to make absentee land owners accountable for criminal or inappropriate behavior on their property. She didn't think the intention was for property owners not to call law enforcement She said the attempt of the ordinance is to target landlords, specifically in the historic district, who are not being responsible for their tenants.
