PUBLIC INPUT A. Public Participation. Michael Rice, 122 Fairway Drive, Sanford. He spoke about his mother's home at 345 East Palmetto Avenue, Longwood. He thanked the city for addressing his concerns at a previous commission meeting and noted that his mother was impressed. He addressed the speeding issue that is still taking place. He requested speed tables be put on the road, one at Oak Street and another at the western intersection, of which he was not sure what the street name was. He invited Mayor McMillan to join him at Santa Claus classes this Friday and Saturday in Winter Springs. He commented on the Pledge of Allegiance and said there is no comma after one nation under God and that there is not a pause moment. Mark Rice, 345 East Palmetto Avenue, Longwood. He stated that he was Michael's brother and spoke about the speeding on Palmetto Avenue. He noted he requested the log related to the monitoring system and talked to several individuals at the Police Department. Now that the road CC 07-22-2024/2 has been paved, the speeding is worse. He spoke about the monitoring system report and said it was difficult to understand. He noted that state law allows five (5) miles over the speed limit, and Longwood allows ten (10) miles over the speed limit before they decide to pull somebody over or write a ticket. He said this is a residential street and explained that an individual at the police department told him they compared East Palmetto to Ronald Reagan Boulevard (County Road 427). He said that a direct comment was made to him that if he was traveling down Ronald Reagan Boulevard and doing ten (10) miles over the speed limit, and a police officer saw him, and nobody was on the road, he would mostly likely let him go. He stated that their street is not a four(4) lane highway but a residential road. He expressed a concern that Longwood is getting the attitude that ten (10) miles over the speed limit in a residential area is okay and that they have no concern for the children in the area and the welfare of residents. He commented that it is not the same situation as being on U.S. Highway 17-92, State Road 434, or County Road 427. He also commented about the grass issue with the sewer system and why rocks were put in everyone's yard. 8. MAYOR AND COMMISSIONERS' REPORT District#2. Commissioner Boni thanked Mr. Rice for the "atta boy" comments and was confident that the speeding issues would be investigated and addressed. He attended the budget work session and complimented everyone for being well-prepared to present the budget. He attended the Rock, Freedom, and Fireworks and noted they were amazing. He attended the Mercy Road ribbon-cutting event and noted that almost 300 people were there at Northland Church for the ribbon- cutting. He is proud to be a part of Mercy Road and help them with senior initiatives. He also mentioned that his oldest daughter just got engaged. District#3. Mayor McMillan attended Juneteenth and the Rock, Freedom, and Fireworks events. He complimented the staff for a well- organized event. He attended the budget work session on July 10th and appreciated the staff for their hard work. Mayor McMillan reported on the true, good, and beautiful. For the "true," he spoke about the budget and anticipated revenue of $46,135,338 from all sources, adding the transfers and fund balances of $47,596,290, stating those are significant revenues, and the budget process shows how we anticipate those coming in and how we allocate those for resident needs. For the "good," he spoke about unity. He traveled after the budget work session and went to St. Louis, and that was when there was the assassination attempt on President Trump in Pennsylvania, which shocked many people. The next day, he was a CC 07-22-2024/3 delegate at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, and in an admittedly partisan environment, he could see unity coming together there from both sides, watching the press and seeing that such horrific violence is not acceptable. He was in the audience as the President described the events on that Saturday honoring life for Cory Comperatore, who was killed and recognized David Dutch and James Copenhaver, both injured. He stopped in Indianapolis, where the Catholic Church,for the first time in eighty-four (84) years, had a National Eucharistic Congress, which was basically a revival. He attended for one day, and they had different themes on different days. The theme on that Saturday was, in fact, unity for our country and the world, and it was a very powerful presentation. For the "beautiful," he commented on the historic Longwood logos now next to the signs on the overpass at Interstate 4 (1-4). District#4. Deputy Mayor Morgan received a call from two (2) Seminole County Commissioners about the opportunity as a City to opt out of the Florida Live Local Act exception. Mr. Gioielli commented on the topic, stating there is some change to the law that allows certain areas to opt out of the ad valorem portion or the tax exemption portion of the law. He understood that Longwood and Seminole County are eligible for that exemption. He said staff, unless the Commission objects, would bring something forward for the Commission's review and consideration. Deputy Mayor Morgan attended the 4th of July event. On July 9, he attended, along with Attorney General Ashley Moody and Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) Commissioner Mark Glass, an event in Tampa to announce the latest findings in the interim drugs and deceased persons report. He will be attending future events with her. He commended staff on the preparation for the budget work session. He spoke at the Seminole County 0-Pod, which is a long-term rehabilitation facility for inmates who are arrested for drug-related crimes and an area specifically designated for inmates addicted to or involved with opioids. He commended Longwood Summer Camp, Camp Director Corey, and all camp counselors for raising the bar. His son Jackson, who is neurodiverse, attends, and this is the first neurotypical camp he has been to. On July 17, Cascade Heights, a senior living community, had a hero appreciation luncheon for both Longwood police and fire departments. He attended the Mercy Road Grand opening ribbon cutting event and commended them for all they do for the community for seniors and the neurodiverse. CC 07-22-2024/4 Deputy Mayor Morgan stated his thoughts and prayers are with those who they saw on the day of the assassination attempt of our former President and the family of the firefighter who lost his life protecting his family. District#5. Commissioner Sackett was in Minnesota to visit his family and his newest grandchild and celebrate his fifty (50) years with his wife. He is now spending time at the beach with his family. He said it was a great time to celebrate family and believes that is what the 4th of July is all about. He was able to see the July 4th event at Reiter Park and the Juneteenth event from people who were filming it. He commented on the budget work session, noted it was well organized, and commended the finance department. District#1. Commissioner Shoemaker commented and agreed that all the events were spectacular. She commented that the budget worksheets answer all the questions. She mentioned that now that Grant Street had been paved, she wanted the share-the-road bike lane symbols back on the road. 9. A. ADDITIONAL ITEMS RAISED DURING MAYOR'S AND COMMISSIONERS' REPORTS Mayor McMillan wanted to bring up one item to demonstrate the purpose of this section. He noted that Deputy Mayor Morgan recommended during his report that staff be directed to prepare an item for the exemption for the Live Local Act. This will be discussed in this section and found as a separate item in the minutes. Mayor McMillan asked for a consensus from the Commission for staff to bring back an item addressing the exemption for the Live Local Act. It was the consensus of the Commission to have staff bring back an item related to the exemption for the Live Local Act. Mayor McMillan forgot to mention the patches he requested related to the Push-In Ceremony for the new Ladder Truck at Fire Station 15 during his report. He believed there would be enough for everybody in the fire department to get one, and he was not sure if there would be any extra ones. He wanted to give one to the Historic Society to be preserved for that particular event. CC 07-22-2024/5 B. ANY ADDITIONS OR DELETIONS TO THE AGENDA Commissioner Sackett wished to comment on Item 10D related to debris removal. He questioned why some companies were outside the State of Florida and how they would manage them if needed. Mr. Gioielli responded that they select a company that is eligible to come when emergency operations are needed and intentionally pick those out of the state so that they are not victims of hurricane damage. 10. CONSENT AGENDA A. Approve the Minutes of the June 17, 2024, Regular Meeting. B. Approve the Monthly Expenditures for June 2024. C. Approve Monthly Financial Report for May 2024. D.

Read by title only, set August 5, 2024, as the second public hearing date, and approve the first reading of Ordinance No. 24- 2254, a Longwood Development Code Amendment intended to CC 07-22-2024/6 implement new provisions of the Live Local Act and update other code elements including amending standards for temporary signs, massage therapy establishments,fences,tree removal, and other general updates of the LDC. Mr. Langley read Ordinance No. 24-2254 by title only. Mr. Kintner presented the Item and went over the scope of the general update ordinances which included new provisions of the Live Local Act, amending standards for temporary signs, massage therapy establishments, fences, tree removal, and other general updates of the Longwood Development Code. Mayor McMillan opened the public hearing. No one spoke in favor or opposition to Ordinance No. 24-2254. Deputy Mayor Morgan moved to close the public hearing. Seconded by Commissioner Boni and carried by a unanimous voice vote. Deputy Mayor Morgan moved to approve Ordinance No. 24-2254 and set August 5, 2024 as the second public hearing date. Seconded by Commissioner Shoemaker and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. B. Read by title only, set August 5, 2024, as the second public hearing date, and approve the first reading of Ordinance No. 24- 2255, a Small-Scale Comprehensive Plan and Longwood Development Code Amendment intended to change the Future Land Use and Zoning at 1777 North Ronald Reagan Boulevard and amend standards related to vehicle sales. Mr. Langley read Ordinance No. 24-2255 by title only. Mr. Kintner presented the Item, explained it was the result of a request from the property owner, and addressed the following: • At its June 3, 2024 meeting, the Longwood City Commission requested that staff facilitate a property owner request to have vehicle sales at 1777 North Ronald Reagan Boulevard, with the Parcel ID 29-20-30-300-0100-0000. • The property's current zoning of Neighborhood Commercial does not support the use of vehicle sales with outdoor display. CC 07-22-2024/7 o The property's Future Land Use designation was changed in 2022 as part of a large city-wide change to the City's land use and zoning structure. The previous designation was Infill and Mixed-Use (IMU). Many properties facing the Ronald Reagan corridor and near residential subdivisions were assigned the Neighborhood Commercial designation. o The change to Neighborhood Commercial did remove vehicle repair as an allowable use and that vehicle repair had been a historic use at the property, though vehicle repair uses have remained as legally non-conforming uses. o While the previous land use (IMU) did allow vehicle repair facilities, vehicle sales has not been an allowable at the location since at least 2011. Ordinance 11-1976 (2011) prohibited vehicle sales in multi-tenant centers such as this one, Ordinance 16-2088 (2016) prohibited vehicle sales along Ronald Reagan Boulevard where this property is located. So, it is not correct to say that the 2022 land use change took away the use of vehicle sales from the property. o The property has had legally non-conforming uses, including vehicle repair, for some time. Legally non- conforming uses are allowed to continue so long as they are not interrupted by either an allowable use, or by a period of a vacancy of—in most cases—365 days. o Certain uses have a shorter period (90 days)for defining discontinuance — pawn shops, tattoo parlors, massage therapy establishments, vehicle sales facilities, marijuana dispensaries, smoke shops, smoking lounges, and CBD establishments. o The property owner has indicated that a vehicle sales establishment left some time ago and, as such, no longer has the ability to have vehicle sales with outdoor display as a legally non-conforming use. The owner has expressed concern about not only that component, but the potential for the existing legally non-conforming vehicle repair uses to potentially lapse in the future. CC 07-22-2024/8 • To facilitate City Commission direction, staff has proposed a land use change from Commercial to Industrial and a zoning change from Neighborhood Commercial to Light Industrial. o The LI zoning category is present in the Baywood Industrial Park immediately across Ronald Reagan Boulevard from the subject property, behind parcels with the Neighborhood Commercial zoning. o Assigning the LI zoning restores a number of auto- oriented uses by right including vehicle rental facilities, indoor vehicle sales, vehicle service and repair, and accessory body shops. • Even with the change to Light Industrial, the new zoning category does not presently allow vehicle sales with outdoor display. o Staff has proposed additional standards to the auto- oriented uses section to create a narrow vehicle sales exemption for properties include garages and bays that have historically been in auto-oriented use. o This exemption also removes the need for vehicle sales facilities meeting these criteria to complete a site development plan. o Following the LPA meeting, staff has narrowed the exemption criteria even further to limit the exemption to only those properties adjacent and/or addressed to Ronald Reagan Boulevard. The only properties that appear to be eligible for this exception are the subject property, 1777 North Ronald Reagan Boulevard,and the Mohawk Centre (953 North Ronald Reagan Blvd), which presently has numerous vehicle sale and vehicle repair operations. While not a specific LPA condition of approval, staff believes this helps address a concern about proliferation. o Staff removed a requirement for a landscape buffer associated with this exception.While the 1777 property can meet that as-is, it would require significant expenditure by the 963 property. Staff also removed a requirement that the properties be 50 feet or more from residential, as both 1777 and 963 meet that CC 07-22-2024/9 restriction—the latter solely due to the SunRail right-of- way. • There are some additional updates to the auto-oriented uses section to help separate operational standards from locational ones. • In providing the required notice of this action, staff received an e-mail and a letter from property owners near the subject property objecting to the proposal. o In responding to these concerns, staff noted that the building in question is located immediately adjacent to the Baywood Industrial Park, which carries the same Light Industrial zoning that the proposed subject property has. As such, this limited change, and the narrow vehicle sales carve-out, does not create a reasonable expectation of a dramatic change in the environment surrounding the commercial property at 1712 Ronald Reagan Boulevard. o While vehicle sales with outdoor display is not allowed in the Baywood Industrial Park, there are at least 3 vehicle repair businesses there currently which are similar in visual and environmental impact. o While staff understands their concerns about the proliferation of vehicle sales, by focusing on the specific situation the 1777 property exhibits, this ordinance has been crafted to limit impacts on surrounding areas including the significant expansion of vehicle sales operations beyond what currently exists. • This item appeared before the LPA at its July 10, 2024 meeting. This item generated significant discussion with LPA members regarding the potential of vehicle sales at this location to negatively impact the visual appeal of the corridor and the potential for this exemption to lead to an increase in the number of vehicle sales facilities. The LPA did ultimately approve the item with the following conditions: o That there be a limitation on the total number of cars for sale o That the vehicle sales facilities be "boutique" in nature (defined, in part, as a small number of sales perIl business) CC 07-22-2024/10 III o That temporary signage not be allowed on the property o That the property not have had any code enforcement violations prior to application for the exemption • Staff suggested that these conditions might create more certainty for the City Commission against the "worst case" scenarios, while providing the property owner with the allowances he is seeking. • The property owner indicated a willingness, even prior to the LPA motion, to put a cap on the number of cars. In the property owner's testimony at the meeting, Mr. Hattaway indicated that he already restricts temporary signage on the property and, as such, this restriction would be in general agreement with his current management of the property. o Staff would note that, as a multi-tenant center, the impact of even a small cap of 5 vehicles per property could become significant to the property at 4 or 5 units. o Further, there is to some degree a natural cap in that cars cannot be legally be stored in the right-of-way, unpaved areas, landscape buffers, dry retention areas, etc. • Should the City Commission wish for staff to integrate some or all of these recommendations into the ordinance, staff requests that the direction be presented as a motion. Mayor McMillan opened the public hearing. Mr.Jim Hattaway, 840 Waterway Place, Longwood spoke in favor of the Item. He provided background and location of the property and explained that when he first purchased it, the property was in unincorporated Seminole County and had an industrial land use designation; he explained the zoning, and when he annexed into the City, he was told he would keep the same zoning. He explained why the specific uses were important to him and his business. He also mentioned that he attempted to contact the two individuals who had sent in an objection to the change to discuss it but was only able to speak with one of them. He mentioned that he has always been a good neighbor and corporate citizen. They have had no code enforcement actions, and the building is clean and attractive, and the landscaping has been well maintained with nice plants. He noted there had not been flags, banners, balloons, temporary signs, or any of that kind of stuff, which never has been and never will be, and his lease CC 07-22-2024/11 with all of his tenants prohibits that kind of stuff. He mentioned a few new restrictions being imposed and some things that the Land Planning Agency wanted. They were to limit to around five (5) or so cars per tenant that they could sell at any one time and restrictions on signs. He said he could live with that and is a big believer in the idea that a good compromise pleases nobody, and we are all getting a little something we want, which is fair, and that's fine. He stated nothing was new; he only asked to return the uses to what they had when they first annexed into the City. He also said that his business would fail without the uses and was built for those uses. Discussion ensued on vehicle sales at the property, the history of the zoning change, and questions were asked and answered by both Mr. Kintner and Mr. Hattaway. Mr. Kintner provided clarification for the Commission regarding the restrictions from the Land Planning Agency that they were not part of the ordinance. If the ordinance passes on August 5, Mr. Hattaway can get a business tax receipt and exactly what he wants. He referenced page six of the ordinance under the exception, which says a new vehicle, sales or rental office may have an outdoor display of vehicles without the need for a Site Development Plan, where the proposed location meets all the following requirements: (A)The property or development carries the light industrial zoning which it would and is addressed to North Ronald Reagan Boulevard, which it does. (B)The proposed vehicle sales or rentals facility will be located in an existing auto- oriented building defined here as a multi-tenant building which he has, that includes interior garages or automobile service bays as commonly defined as the building existed on August 5, 2024, which is when the Commission would potentially vote on it. Has had a valid business access sheet associated with the address of the building for a vehicle, sales, facility, vehicle, repair, vehicle, rental, or body shop issued within a five-year period prior to the application for business access for the new vehicle sales use which he has. Mr. Kintner also noted those are the only two (2) conditions that are there. He would follow that direction if the Commission wants to add any Land Planning Agency conditions. He reiterated that those are the two (2) conditions. He also pointed out that the ninety (90) days referenced are ninety (90) days for vehicle sales only. They had this discussion at the Land Planning Agency Meeting as well. It is 365 days for vehicle repair and body shop. CC 07-22-2024/12 No one else spoke in favor or opposition to Ordinance No. 24- 2255. Commissioner Boni moved to close the public hearing. Seconded by Commissioner Shoemaker and carried by a unanimous voice vote. Deputy Mayor Morgan moved to approve Ordinance No. 24-2255 and set August 5, 2024 as the second public hearing date. Seconded by Commissioner Boni and carried by a four-to-one (4-1) roll call vote with Commissioner Sackett voting nay. 12. REGULAR BUSINESS A.

Ms. Rosado presented the Item. Commissioner Boni moved to approve the tentative millage rate of$5.500, which is 5.97% higher than the roll- back rate of$5.1900 for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2024 and ending September 30, 2025.

Read by title only, set August 5, 2024, as the public hearing date and approve the first reading of Ordinance No. 24-2256, which adopts a Mobility Plan for the City of Longwood. Mr. Langley read Ordinance No. 24-2256 by title only. CC 07-22-2024/13 Mr. Smith introduced the speakers in attendance to present on both Item 12C and Item 12D, which are connected. Lauren Rushing, Transportation Planner with NUE Urban Concepts, presented the Mobility Plan. She reviewed what a mobility plan is, why Longwood needs a plan, guiding elements, overarching goals, Longwood's 2045 Mobility Plan, multimodal infrastructure typologies, improving mobility for people, planning for a complete network—complete streets, proposed projects, enhancing placemaking and spur redevelopment, multimodal accessibility, Vision Zero, and safe streets for all (Road Level-of- Service and Quality-of-Service), and next steps. Discussion ensued on the plan, and noted that it is the general framework. Also pointed out was that the legislature requires a five (5) year update of this plan every five (5) years, and the Commission will be reassessing the projects. Commissioner Sackett moved to approve Ordinance No. 24-2256 and set August 5, 2024 as the public hearing date. Seconded by Commissioner Boni and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. D. Read by title only, set August 5, 2024, as the public hearing date and approve the first reading of Ordinance No. 24-2257, which adopts a Mobility Fee schedule for the City of Longwood.

He reviewed what a mobility fee is, how to implement a mobility fee, existing mobility fees and similar programs in Florida, how the fees are calculated, Longwood draft mobility fee schedule, mobility fee assessment examples, county comparison, summary of House Bill 479, dual rational nexus and rough proportionality, assessment area, benefit districts, and next steps. He also indicated that a letter would need to be sent to Seminole County to indicate the City is moving forward with the adoption of a mobility fee ordinance, and an interlocal agreement with Seminole County would need to be prepared if the City wished to adopt a plan and collect mobility these fees. CC 07-22-2024/14 Discussion ensued on the fee, and the study would typically be reviewed every five (5) years. It was also noted that extraordinary circumstances would be needed to justify a change to increase the rate. Deputy Mayor Morgan moved to approve Ordinance No. 24-2257 and set August 5, 2024 as the public hearing date. Seconded by Commissioner Sackett and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. 13. CITY MANAGER'S REPORT Mr. Gioielli reported that work continues on the proposed budget, and there was an issue with the calculation under the Commissioner's budget related to the benefits, which has been corrected. The percentage of that change is 4%, not 23%. Additionally, they have backed out of the 37,000 double line that was inadvertently put in for the Tasers in the Police Department.
