Shedffs Citizen's Advisory Committee (CAC) gave a brief overview of the functions of the CAC.
Chief Hardett explained the CAC was created in 1992 by Shedff Don Eslinger to facilitate the community
policing approach; members are appointed by the Shedff and serve at his pleasure to review and make
recommendation regarding a vadety of functions,
procedures, public relations and disciplinary matters.
including, but not limited to, citizen complaints, purchasing
For example, all bids are opened and reviewed by the CAC.
In addition, the CAC recommends appointees to a Civilian Review Board to review reported cases of excessive force
by Deputies.
Mr. Martinez reported that the CAC also conducts budget and contract review, emphasizing that they are
an advisor'/board only and do not interfere with department operations, conduct investigations, or set policy.
Meetings are called by the Shedff as needed, usually on a quarterly basis.
In response to Commissioner Eckstein's inquiries, Mr. Martinez reported that the Sheriff has followed the
CAC's recommendation upon occasion in cases of police discipline review, and explained that as a CAC member,
he was initially given literature and information about the department and has personally been to the Police
Academy.
Chief Harriett affirmed that the CAC operates "in the Sunshine" and accordingly, meetings are open to the
public; that the board. composition is diverse, including 2 females, I Hispanic, I African-American, and three others;
that both he and the Sheriff serve as liaison depending on the issue, with the Shedff attending most meetings. He
then submitted a copy of the CAC's Standard Operating Procedure to Mayor Dale. Chief Hardett further reported
that feedbeck is given for every recommendation, and there is an agenda at every meeting.
Following discussion, those members of Sanford's Citizen's Advisory Board who were present, including
Kevin Hipes, Bemard Brown, Dean Ray, and Dick Huber, expressed their appreciation to Chief Harriett and Mr.
Martinez for the presentation.
Kevin Hipes suggested a future meeting between the two boards to help better serve the Sanford community.
in response to Dick Huber's inquiry, Mr. Martinez explained that for such needs as increasing police patrols
downtown, citizens would go to the Sheriff or Under Shedff who have the knowledge and ability of how and where
to place their officers, rather than the CAC.
Dean Ray questioned the CAC's budget review, and Chief Hardett explained that before final submittal to the
Board of County Commissioners, the budget is presented to the CAC for review and feedback regarding

Discussion of applications for Economic Development Incentives.
Tracy Grygiel with the Economic Development Commission of Mid-Florida and Charles Rowe, Director of
Community Development, appeared to present information regarding applications from Manufacturing Technology,
Inc. (MTI) and Southeast Services, Inc.
Mr. Rowe referenced both a letter from MTI dated April 28, 1997 and his memo of April 25, 1997, and
requested that the City's previous offer of a $50,000.00 loan at 7%% interest for 3 years be adjusted to 0% interest
for 3 years. He explained that the money would be taken from reserves, therefore losing 5%% earned interest, but
acquiring principle on the loan.
Discussion ensued regarding the need to continue development of individual economic incentive packages
on a case by case basis to maintain fiscal responsibility while attracting businesses.
Ms. Grygiel stated that she felt MTI would be more amenable to the new proposal and she should have an
answer within several weeks.
Mr. Rowe reported that the second applicant, Southeast Services, Inc., is planning to construct a 100,000
square foot building, and add 65 jobs to its current base of 25 employees in the next five years, increasing its annual
ad valorem tax base. to $22,690.47. Mr. Rowe recommended that the City award an incentive package to Southeast
Services, Inc. not to exceed $25,000.00, to include waivers applicable to the building permit, Fire Department plans
review, license inspection and occupational licenses fees not to exceed $10,000.00, and a grant in the amount of
$15,000.00 after the first full year of ad valorera tax payment.
In response to questions from Commissioners Lyons and Eckstein regarding statistical financial information
available on SoUtheast Services, Inc., Bob Turk, Seminole County Toudsm Development Director, reported that
they have recently secured contracts with Harcourt Brace & Company, IBM, and Seagate.
City .Manager Bill Simmons referenced the City's current economic incentive program as being totally "jobs-
based" as opposed to the County program, which is "ad valorem tax generation-based," and explained that in the
case of Southeast Services, Inc., the proposed building is an immediate payback in ad valorera tax money, with
increased jobs being an additional benefit. He recommends reframing the program to look at both sides:, and
suggested that the requested $15,000.00 grant could be included in the FY 98-99 budget, to get economic irfcentive
on a budgeted program.
Following further discussion, the Commission requested additional financial data on Southeast Services, Inc.,
and the City Manager stated that staff could draft a revision of the economic incentive ordinance and bdng to work

Procedures Manual is pretty much up to date; however, considerable update of the Police Manual is necessary
before adoption.
Commissioner Eckstein emphasized that he wants the Commission's police liaison, Mayor Dale, to be able
to directly address the issue if adopted policy is not adhered
Commissioner Lyons expressed concern over adopting the policy before the consultant arrives, that he
doesn't want to double the work effort.
Mayor Dale explained that the Request for Proposal (RFP) has gone out with response due by May ~15, to
be followed by a Special Session of the City Commission at the end of May to select the consultant, and
recommended that the Commission adopt the policy, but not implement at this time.
Commissioner Wi!!iams suggested that the new Police Chief get the opportunity to make suggestions before
the consulting firm an'ires.
Chief Diilard reported that the Police Depar*~nent had been working on a separate policy manual, which they
put on hold when they heard about the consultant firm coming in, stating that he thinks State accreditation is the
best way to go and will make the Department policy driven.
Commissioner Lessard stressed the importance of getting the consultant's evaluation process underway as
soon as possible.
The City Manager explained that information requested on the RFP includes length of time for the study, cost,
and starting date.
Following further discussion and the recommendation of the City Manager, the Commission directed staff
to proceed with the preparation of an ordinance to adopt the Fire Department Operating Procedures Manual.
Discussion of request to reClassify an existin~J vacant "Maintenance Worker I!" position to
"Groundskeeper."
Mike Kirby, Director of Recreation and Parks, briefly explained the difficulty experienced in trying to fill the
Maintenance Worker !1 position, and requested that the position be r~classified to Groundskeeper at a pay increase
of $5,000.00. Emphasizing the need to fill the position now, Mr. Kirby stated that the position is responsible for eight
ball fields and three employees.
In response to Commissioner Lyons' inquiry, Mr. Kirby reported that they have looked into contracting out
for this service; however, it's not feasible for the daily work associated with the job.
Discussion re: residency requirements for city employees.
The City Manager referenced the Personnel Director's memo of April 21 , ~1997, and explained that he has
concerns with mandating residency, particularly beyond public safety~
Tim McCauley, Personnel Director, referencing the same memo, explained that residency requirements
cannot be imposed on the Police Department under the current union contract, which is in effect until September
~1998, and the State of Florida prohibits state residency requirements. He then cited the City of Casseiberry as an
example of ~esidency requirements not working, with two employees having to maintain dual residency to keep their
jobs.
Commissioner Lyons suggested that the City give extra points for residency, offer home loans as mentioned
previously by Commissioner Lessard.

Mayor Dale explained that he favors giving extra points to potential employees living in the City, but wouldn't
want to favor a resident over a better qualified applicant, and doesn't want to lower standards.
The City Manager suggested that the Personnel Department collect a year of dam on qualified applicants,
regarding their response to whether they would be willing to relocate to the City if the job was offered.
Discussion of lease. amendment for APT tower site on Oregon Avenue.
The City Manager explained that the proposed amendment to the Lease Agreement between the City of
Sanford and APT Tampa/Orlando removes the City's indemnification to APT, involves only minor language changes,
has met with the City Attomey's approval, and recommended that the City Commission approve at tonighr. s Regular
Meeting.
Discussion of Stormwater Utility rate increase.
The City Manager referenced the 1993 Stormwater Utility Master Plan and explained the need for the $1.00
rate increase, with expenditure of those dollars to begin Winter 1997/98, and that figures on the Public Works
Director's Memo of April 16, 1997 are estimates; only Mill Creek Phase 2 has been bid and is funded.
In response to Commissioner Lyons' suggestion that other funding options be investigated, such as using
50% of the Mall CRA tax revenue, Mayor Dale explained that such a step would negate the intended tax relief to
residential taxpayers, as shortfall of the general fund is made up by taxpayers. He then cited the County's current
stormwater problems as a result of delaying implementation, and referenced both the City's Stormwater
Management Master Plan which anticipated the $1.00 increase, and poor drainage downtown.
Commissioner Lyons questioned whether the stormwater utility fee would be rescinded once the program is
completed in 1999; however, the City Manager explained that they can't rescind, that it will probably go into 20-year
bond debt service.
Following additional discussion, the Commission concurred to have a Resolution to increase the stormwater
utility fee prepared for adoption at the next regular meeting, and Mayor Dale requested copies of the Stormwater
Utility Master Plan for the Commission.
Discussion of FY96197 street resurfacing.
The City Manager referenced the April 14, 1997 memo from the Public Works Director which recommends
that a contract be issued under the Seminole County paving contract, and explained that the Local Option Gas Tax
will be utilized for funding of this project.
Following discussion, the Commission concurred to proceed with the work plan as proposed.
Discussion of a Metal Halide Liqht Pilot Project.
The City Manager referenced the additional lighting needs downtown, e.g. First Street and Magnolia Square,
and described this pilot project as an ~xperiment to be applied to light fixtures at the south end of Magnolia Square
in an attempt to increase the amount of light emanating from the existing fixture. He then requested the
Commission's conditional approval of the project at tonighrs Regular Meeting to facilitate subsequent approval by
the Community Redevelopment Agency. In addition, the City Manager reported that Florida Power & Light fixtures
along the 200 block of Magnolia, between 2nd and 3rd Street, can't handle the halide lights; therefore, FPL has been
asked to retrofit a number of those cobraheads to handle the maximum 200 wattage.

expand current police presence in the Mall, and possible redesign of the facility for greater effectiveness, the
Commission concurred to pursue joint use with the Shedff's Office and attempt to increase present use of the facility.
Review of Police Benevolent Association leases.
The Commission discussed both the lease of the Police Benevolent Association (PBA) building to the
AMVETS Post #17 at a monthly rent of $800.00, and the sublease of the PBA building between the AMVETS
Post~17 and Bishop David Grant, Word for Right Now Ministries, inc., at a monthly rent of $150.00.
Mike Kirby reported that both parties have reviewed the leases, and Bishop David Grant has no problem with
the proposed sublease.

paying $150.00 of the total $800.00.
Commissioner Willjams reiterated Mr. Mobley's comments, referenced Bishop Granrs use of the facility on

Commissioner Lessard noted that publicly owned facilities am not paying taxes and the City should not be
in the rental business.
Discussion of proposed Noise Ordinance.
City Manager Simmons explained that the draft ordinance, which was pattemed after the City of Orlando,
combines the technology of establishing a maximum decibel level measured at the boundary of receiving property
with outside performance requirements.
[Commissioner Lessard briefly left the meeting, then retumed.]
Commissioner Lyons stated that he thinks the City's existing ordinance is enforceable, referenced Austin,
Texas' noise ordinance which measures dedbel level from the originating property rather than the receiving property,
and explained that with either ordinance, we must have the necessary equipment to enforce it. Further, Austin has
a teem with a decibel meter which deals with noise emanating from within houses, not just from outdoor bands.
The City Manager explained that equipment would cost $5,000.00 - $10,000.00, with a sound engineer who
could either be trained or brought in for special events.
Commissioner Eckstein noted that hiring an outside sound engineer for special outdoor events won't solve
noise problems in neighborhoods.
Following more discussion, the Commission concurred that the City Manager should proceed with the
preparation of a smooth draR, combining elements of both Odando and Austin, Texas' noise ordinances, and obtain
an equipment cost.
Discussion of proposed AlcohOlic Beverage Code chanq,es.
City Clerk Janet Doughedy noted that the second paragraph of (b) on page three (3) of proposed Ordinance
No. 3341 should be deleted.
Mayor Dale briefly explained that the proposed changes apply distance restrictions to all alcoholic beverage
vendors, not just those who sell hard liquor, establish distance restrictions between vendors, reduce distance
restrictions between alcoholic beverage establishments and churches/schools, broaden the definition of restaurant,
and exempt SC-3 zoned property (the downtown district) from distance restrictions.
Director of Planning and Development Jay Martier distributed a memo regarding local governments' regulation
of liquor consumption on premise.
Following discussion in which Commissioners Williams, Lessard and Eckstein favored reducing the distance
requirement between vendors and churches and/or schools to 1000 feet, Commissioner Lyons favored either no
reduction or 1,500 feet, Mayor Dale suggested a compromise of 1250 feet, and the Commission concurred to set
the distance between vendors at 500 feet, between vendors and churches and/or schools as 1,250 feet, and take
action on the proposed ordinance at tonighrs Regular Meeting.
Discussion of requeSt from Florida Leaque of Cities to advertise in the convention booklet.

Presentation regarding requirement for new employees to live in Sanford.
Commissioner Lessard gave a presentation regarding the feasibility of initiating a Sanford residency requirement for
new employees. He reported that approximately 17% of Seminole Towne Center employees live in the City compared to
approximately 50% of City employees, with only 25% of the employees in several key departments residing inside the City
limits. !n response to valid concems of adequate available housing and possible adverse effect on recruitment, Commissioner
Lessard explained that Sanford is a fast growth corddor with housing available now and additional housing, such as Steding
Woods, to come. Further, to counteract any negative recruitment effect, he recommended such solutions as a grace pedod
of six months, delaying effective date of the related ordinance until October 1, 1998, only applying the requirement to 45
positions per year, and permitting the City Commission to overTide the ordinance in emergency situations. The positive yield
of such a residency requirement includes having employees with a greater knowledge of the City and with a personal stake
in the betterment of Sanford, as well as a reduction in absenteeism and tardiness, availability of staff in emergency situations,
and a monumental effect on local economy. Commissioner Lessard then requested a consensus to draft an ordinance
regarding same, explaining that the people in Sanford desperately need jobs.
Discussion ensued regarding implementing residency requirements, with Commissioner Lyons noting the recruitment
difficulties experienced by Seminole Towne Center and other new businesses, Mayor Dale explaining that City employees who
live here don't necessarily shop here, and both Commissioners Wiiliams and Eckstein voicing their preference for incentives
rather than mandates regarding City residency. No action was taken.
