6. CITY COMMISSION SPECIAL REPORTS AND REQUESTS:
Mayor Herzberg stated she has two items, one is to address the questions and
misinformation regarding recycling which will be done by Assistant City Manager Dr.
Cooper and the second is why recycling has been suspended which will be done by
Finance Director Ms. Hooper. She also would like to speak about The Center with regards
to the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding, and Environmental, Cultural,
Historical and Outdoor (ECHO) Grant funding.
Commissioner Bradford stated she would like to bring up assistance from Deltona Water to
those residents affected by the government shutdown and City Manager Shang replied that
is already in place, the resident just have to show federal identification. Michael Putkowski
will speak on behalf of the Community Life Center (CLC) who is also providing assistance
to federal employees. Vice Mayor Ramos stated the CLC is also working with Second
Harvest Food Bank for those needing assistance. Mayor Herzberg stated to make this one
discussion item regarding assistance to federal employees due to the government
shutdown.
Commissioner Bradford suggested to either have a meeting or address the allegations
tonight against City Manager Shang because the charges are with the State Attorney's
Office and FDLE (Florida Department of Law Enforcement) and have not been dropped as
previously thought.
Vice Mayor Ramos stated he will be making comments regarding Halifax Hospital.
Mayor Herzberg stated she will be bringing up the resolutions adopted by both Holly Hill and
DeBary in support of legislation that restores local zoning authority regarding short term
vacation rentals, single family and multi-family residential zoning districts and opposing all
state legislation that further erodes municipal authority to protect single family and
multi-family residential zoning and tourist activity. This is going to come back to the
legislative session and will be considered a priority. Commissioner Nabicht suggested
adding this to the workshop with the Lobbyist and Mayor Herzberg agreed and she will not
bring it up tonight.
City Manager Shang stated the county is going to have a meeting in February regarding the
City of Deltona Page 2 Printed on 4/15/2019
City Commission Minutes January 22, 2019
half-cent sales tax and they are asking for reaffirmation that the municipalities are on board.
This could generate about $45 million, the City's portion is about 11.35% or $5.1 million
and the City's cost for the election is about $57,000. Her understanding is the county will
advance the dollars for the election and then the City would need to reimburse them. She
has been asked to make sure there is a consensus of support by the Commission.
After discussion, the Commission concurred to have the City Manager gather all
the information regarding the half-cent sales tax, the project list the funds would
be used on and provide it to the Commission.
7. PUBLIC FORUM: Citizen comments are limited to issues and concerns not on the
agenda and comments on items listed on the agenda will take place after discussion
of each item. Please be courteous and respectful of the views of others. Personal
attacks on Commission members, City staff or members of the public are not allowed,
and will be ruled out of order by the Mayor.
CONSENT AGENDA: The consent agenda contains items that have been determined
to be routine and non-controversial. If anyone in the audience wishes to address a
particular item on the consent agenda, now is the opportunity for you to do so.
Additionally, if staff or members of the City Commission wish to speak on a consent
item, they have the same opportunity.
8. CONSENT AGENDA:
A. Request for approval of bid award to General Underground, LLC, for
Deltona Water Reclaimed Water Main Extension Project Parts A - D - Dave
Denny, Public Works/Deltona Water (386) 878-8973 & Camille Hooper,
Finance Director (386) 878-8552.
Strategic Goal: Infrastructure - Preserve and increase the City’s water
supply
Commissioner King asked how staff's estimate for the project ended up $500,000 under
the actual cost. Acting Public Works/Deltona Water Director Mr. Denny replied the estimate
was done in early 2017 and the project was not looked at prior to going to the budget this
past September which is the department's responsibility to do. He stated at the strategic
workshop that as a City the departments need to do a better job of reviewing the cost
estimates for projects every year. Construction costs have gone up about 7.5% a year over
the last two years. Finance Director Ms. Hooper stated the overall budget will not increase
because funds will be used from another project that will not be done to pay for the overage.
Vice Mayor Ramos suggested that Commissioner King pull the item so the discussion can
take place in the Regluar Commission Meeting.
B. Request for approval of the Vineland Reserve Forcemain Upsizing
Agreement, Assignment of Rights to Right-of-Way Utility Easement and
City of Deltona Page 3 Printed on 4/15/2019
City Commission Minutes January 22, 2019
Right-of-Way Utility Easement Agreement - Dave Denny, Public
Works/Deltona Water (386) 878-8973.
Strategic Goal: Infrastructure
Commissioner King stated a six inch force main was approved, but then the City asked the
developer to provide an eight inch force main which was an additional cost of $66,508 and
almost doubles the cost of the project.
Commissioner Bradford stated the question is why did staff not originally request the eight
inch force main and Mr. Denny replied there were requests for other subdivisions and the
capacity of an eight inch force main will support that.
Commissioner King asked how this was being budgeted and Mr. Denny replied the City is
paying the $66,508 and the developer is paying everything else. Commissioner King asked
if the City's cost was budgeted in this year's budget and the answer was no. Mr. Denny
stated the City is not overspending what was approved in the budget.
C. Request for approval Resolution 2019-03, FY 2018-19 Budget Amendment
#1 - Camille Hooper, Finance Department, 386 878-8552.
Strategic Goal: Fiscal Issues - Maintain a Balanced Budget
There were no comments on this item.

9. ORDINANCES AND PUBLIC HEARINGS:
10. OLD BUSINESS:
A. Public Hearing - Resolution 2019-01, vacating a portion of the Mangoe
Street and an unnamed alley rights of way within the Davis Park 3rd
Addition plat as recorded in map book 18, page 117 of the public records of
Volusia County, FL as per City Land Development Code Chapter 106, Sec.
106-32 - Ron A. Paradise, Assistant Director, Planning and Development
Services (386) 878-8610.

City Commission Minutes January 22, 2019
There were no comments on this item.
B. Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 18-2018, Repealing Chapter 22,
“BUSINESSES”, at first reading and to schedule second and final
reading for February 18, 2019. - Joyce Raftery, City Clerk (386) 878-8502.
Strategic Goal: Public Safety
There were no comments on this item.
C. Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 01-2019 and protocol for returning
security deposits - Dave Denny, Deltona Water/Public Works, (386)
878-8973.
Strategic Goal: Fiscal Issues
City Manager Shang stated the recommendation from staff is once the security deposits
are returned the balance of approximately $200,000 would be placed in a non-interest
bearing account. Mr. Denny stated he is confused by that, he thought it was deposits
collected after the date that the Commission approves this item, going forward for new
deposits and not deposits already collected in the past. Also, he thought it was going into
an interest bearing account.
Commissioner Nabicht suggested pulling the item so the staff can go over the details
because there are two different opinions on how this should work. City Attorney
Segal-George stated she has written the ordinance both ways.
Commissioner King stated he was in favor of the language that it "may" be placed in an
"interest bearing account" and his question was how is the money used and whatever it is it
needs to be transparent. Commissioner Nabicht replied it is pennies and it is going to cost
the City money to track the interest.
After discussion, the Commission concurred to continue the discussion at the
Regular Commission Meeting.
D. Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 05-2018, rezoning request (RZ18-001) for
a +113.4 acre site from R1-AA to Residential Planned Unit Development,
at second and final reading - Ron A. Paradise, Assistant Director,
Planning and Development Services, (386) 878-8610.
Strategic Goal: Economic Development - Create more diversified &
high-quality housing opportunities to provide for all market demands.
Planning & Development Assistant Director Ron Paradise stated there is an addition of a
northernly access on Beechdale Court which will result in changes to the Master
City of Deltona Page 5 Printed on 4/15/2019
City Commission Minutes January 22, 2019
Development Plan and some additional language. He stated he will go through all the
changes and make a recommendation to the Commission at the meeting.
City Attorney Segal-George explained the quasi-judicial proceedings.

Strategic Goal: Infrastructure
Background: The City recently approved the Preliminary Plat and Engineering
Construction Plans for the development of a single-family residential

9. ORDINANCES AND PUBLIC HEARINGS:
10. OLD BUSINESS:
A. Public Hearing - Resolution 2019-01, vacating a portion of the Mangoe Street
and an unnamed alley rights of way within the Davis Park 3rd Addition plat as
recorded in map book 18, page 117 of the public records of Volusia County, FL
as per City Land Development Code Chapter 106, Sec. 106-32 - Ron A.
Paradise, Assistant Director, Planning and Development Services (386)
878-8610.
Strategic Goal: Economic Development - Focus on Howland Blvd. as the
gateway for commercial growth.
Background: A joint application has been made by two private landowners,
consistent with Section 106-32 of the Land Development Code to
vacate a portion of a certain right of way and alleyway within the Davis
Park 3rd addition subdivision. The applicants each own assemblages
of small lots. The two owners, Deltona Retail Holdings and Frank A.
Ford own abutting or adjacent land and are apparently partnering to
create a more unified ownership condition within the area.
The vacation request involves the transfer of approximately ½ acre of
public land to private interests. The requested rights of way vacation will
better position the property for commercial development planned for the
area and will serve as an economic incentive to bring more commercial
development to the City of Deltona. However, the owners have not
divulged any definitive land use proposals.
For more information see the attached staff report and map of the rights
of way being requested for vacation.

B. Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 18-2018, Repealing Chapter 22,
“BUSINESSES”, at first reading and to schedule second and final reading for
February 18, 2019. - Joyce Raftery, City Clerk (386) 878-8502.
Strategic Goal: Public Safety
Background: At the Commission Workshop of October 13, 2014, the City
Commission decided that the City should repeal the recently enacted
Rental Regulatory Ordinance which was done by the adoption of
Ordinance No. 28-2014. However, in the attempt to repeal all of the
regulations a portion was in Chapter 22 which was forgotten,
scrivener’s error, and this ordinance will take care of that. Upon
approval of this item authorizes the necessary budget transfers to
facilitate Commission approval and further authorized the City Manager
to sign any documents necessary to further Commission approval of
this item.
Attachments: Ordinance No. 18-2018
C. Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 01-2019 and protocol for returning security
deposits - Dave Denny, Deltona Water/Public Works, (386) 878-8973.
Strategic Goal: Fiscal Issues
Background: The current policy on deposits is that the deposits remain with the
account until the account is closed out. A deposit will then be applied to
the outstanding bill and any difference forwarded to the account holder.
By ordinance deposits are held in a non-interest bearing account.
Staff is recommending a change to the current protocol. Refund of
customer’s utility deposit may occur as follows:
a) Customer has not had any disconnects for non-payment for
twenty-four (24) consecutive months.
b) Customer has not had more than two (2) late payments for
twenty-four (24) consecutive months.
c) Refunded deposits will only be processed during the billing
cycles for that group of customers. Accounts will be monitored
City of Deltona Page 6 Printed on 4/15/2019
City Commission Agenda January 22, 2019
on an individual basis to determine if criteria have been met for
a deposit refund.
A new security deposit will be required if a disconnect fee is issued or
the customer has more than 2 (two) late payments in a consecutive
twenty-four (24) month period. See attached draft ordinance.
Staff also recommend that the ordinance continue to require utility
deposits be held in a non-interest bearing account. Prevailing interest
rates are less than 1% annually so the amount of earnings would be
nominal. Staff estimate that, if this ordinance is approved, the City will
maintain an average balance of $200,000 in utility deposits on hand.
At the current interest rate of 0.6%, interest earnings on this amount
would total only $1,200 annually.
Upon approval of this item authorizes, as applicable, the necessary
budget transfers and further authorizes the City Manager to sign any
documents necessary to implement Commission approval of this item.

D. Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 05-2018, rezoning request (RZ18-001) for a
+113.4 acre site from R1-AA to Residential Planned Unit Development, at
second and final reading - Ron A. Paradise, Assistant Director, Planning and
Development Services, (386) 878-8610.
Strategic Goal: Economic Development - Create more diversified & high-quality
housing opportunities to provide for all market demands.
Background: The City of Deltona received an application for a rezoning to change
the zoning on a ±113.4 acre parcel from R1-AA to Residential Planned
Unit Development (RPUD). The project is planned to feature 259
detached residential units on individual lots. The lot sizes vary in size
from approximately 19,000 square feet to 6,875 square feet. The
project, known as Hampton Oaks, is located north of Spirit Elementary
school and Lake Baton Estates and east of the Sterling Silver
neighborhood. The property, as designed, has three access points:
Meadowlark Drive, Alabaster Way and Pearl Tree Road. The project
features community amenities including ample perimeter buffers and a
28 acre nature preserve. For more information relating to the project
see the attached staff report and related graphics.
All PUD zoning actions are associated with a written Development
Agreement (DA). The Hampton Oaks DA is attached. The DA
illustrates how the property will be developed by articulating
requirements such as a minimum lot sizes, setbacks, etc. However,
City of Deltona Page 7 Printed on 4/15/2019
City Commission Agenda January 22, 2019
after the agenda for the Planning and Zoning Board was prepared, City
staff and the applicant continued to work on Section 6.m. of the
attached DA. Section 6.m. addresses the development of model
homes. After conducting further research, including how other
municipalities manage model home development, staff is proposing
Section 6.m. of the DA be changed. Proposed Section 6.m language is
attached as a stand-alone document. The Planning and Zoning Board
did review the Section 6.m language.
On October 17, 2018, the Planning and Zoning Board heard the
Hampton Oaks RPUD rezoning request. After weighing information and
input from staff, the applicant and concerned citizens, the Planning and
Zoning Board with one member absent voted unanimously to forward
this ordinance to the City Commission with a recommendation to deny
the RPUD rezoning request. The concerns expressed, which led to the
aforementioned recommendation, were as follows:
1) Traffic
2) Drainage
3) Too many lots proposed
In light of the recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Board, on
October 18, 2018, the applicant requested the City Commission grant
a continuance to the December 17, 2018 City Commission meeting to
allow for further public outreach. In the interim the applicant has
furthered studied traffic impacts and explored mitigation alternatives.
Also, the master development plan has been updated and clarified with
the intent of highlighting project amenities such as buffers, recreational
facilities and utility reservations.
In addition, further refinement of the project has resulted in two changes
to the RPUD written Development Agreement (DA). The first change is
to increase the minimum dwelling unit living area from 1,200 square
feet to 1,400 square feet. The 1,400 square foot minimum dwelling unit
living area threshold is consistent with the existing R1-AA zoning
classification. The perimeter buffers associated with this rezoning
request as depicted on the Master Development Plan (MDP) range
from 5’ to over 25’ in width. The majority of the buffer widths are in the
15’ to 25’ range. To ensure the buffers depicted on the MDP will be
recognized the text of the DA has been updated. The intent of the
language change is to ensure greater consistency between the written
DA and accompanying MDP graphic. The applicant in an effort to
achieve better land use compatibility has agreed to increase yard
setbacks. The front yard setback is proposed to be increased from 20’
to 25’. The 25’ front yard setback distance is identical to the majority of
the existing single family dwelling unit development pattern within the
City. The applicant has proposed to change the side yard setbacks
City of Deltona Page 8 Printed on 4/15/2019
City Commission Agenda January 22, 2019
from 6’ to 7.5’ (With a provision to allow some encroachment for HVAC
and related mechanicals. The goal is to provide more dwelling unit
separation and open space retention. Finally, the applicant will improve
the Beechdale Dr. right of way to afford a northerly access route. The
DA has been updated to address the Beechdale Dr. improvements.
The Beechdale Dr. improvement is described elsewhere in this
memorandum.
To fully compare and contrast the RPUD rezoning request and the
existing development entitlements allowed under the R1-AA zoning the
applicant prepared a subdivision plan as if the property were to be
developed under the R1-AA zoning. The conceptual R1-AA
development featured 228 units compared to the 259 units proposed
under the RPUD. However, the R1-AA proposal resulted in significantly
less open space preservation, limited amenities, and less perimeter
buffering. The access options under the R1-AA project include the use
of all available access points including Steeplechase Ln. and Sterling
Silver Blvd. For more information regarding the R-1AA and proposed
RPUD development proposals see the attached zoning comparison
table.
A public scoping meeting regarding the Hampton Oaks project
occurred on January 15, 2019. The applicant discussed the project with
nearby residents and other interested citizens. Many topics were
broached ranging from school capacity (As per a Volusia County
School District representative present at the meeting there is
capacity.), access, traffic control and drainage. The meeting did
provide a venue for concerned citizens and the applicant to voice
various positions relating to the project. However, there will be no major
material alterations to the Hampton Oaks plan as a result of the public
