approved Ordinance No. 04-2023 at first reading.
• July 17, 2023 - City Commission approved Ordinance No. 04-
2023 at Final Reading, amending the ODP/MDP, amending the

In 2018 the first amendment for the Deltona Village BPUD was
approved, to modify the minimum lot size standards and changed the
414 multi-family units from Conditional Use to a Permitted Use. In 2021,
the second amendment was approved to add eight (8) parcels into the
BPUD and vacate certain rights-of-way. In 2023, the third amendment
was approved to update the overall Master Development Plan, amend
the DA to update the multi-family cap to 652 units, and rezone and
include + 0.61 acres of land into the BPUD.
To date, Deltona Village has developed the Epic movie theater, Race
Trac gas station, Burger King, and a Starbucks. Various Site Plans
have been approved, including a 52,800 square-foot Nutty Bavarian
light manufacturing facility (SP22-0007) and a 2,600 square-foot Panda

Store Space Self-Storage facility (SP23-0006).

add or request any additional trips from the original vested entitlements.
The additional land will result in a more integrated and efficient
development pattern, while unifying the former ICC PUD property. The
request is consistent with the Activity Center Future Land Use
designation, and provides a more complete package, able to support
larger, more unified development products.
On December 13, 2023, the Planning and Zoning Board voted to
recommend the City Commission approve Ordinance No. 02-2024,
with a 6 to 1 vote. The City Commission approved Ordinance No.
02-2024 at first reading with a 4 to 1 vote.

B. Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 03-2024- Amending the official Zoning Map to
Rezone an approximately 1.37 - acre parcel of land located at 3150 Howland
Boulevard from Professional Business Zoning District (PB) to the City of
Deltona Retail Commercial District (C-1). - Planning & Development Services
(386) 878-8600.
Strategic Goal: Economic Development
Background: The City received an application to rezone a ±1.37-acre parcel located
at 3150 Howland Boulevard, from PB to C-1. The Future Land Use
Designation is Commercial, which is consistent with the request. The
parcel is currently wooded, vacant parcel between two development
parcels, a House of Worship and Dunkin Donuts.
This application came before the City Commission on August 26,
2023. The Commission voted to send the rezone back to the Planning
and Zoning Board to allow the applicant to work through some issues
and supply sufficient information regarding an end user. On December
13, 2023, the Planning and Zoning Board unanimously recommended
approval. On January 16, 2024, the City Commission voted 2-3 for
approval, causing the Ordinance to fail. On January 29, 2024, the
applicant requested a rehearing, and on February 9, 2024, the
Commission voted to allow the applicant to bring the application back
with a 4 to 2 vote.
The applicant is requesting to build a + 5,000 square foot Take 5 Oil
Change and a + 5,000 square foot retail building. The applicant has
provided Exhibit B, prohibited uses to ensure certain uses cannot go
into this location. The preliminary Site Plan has been provided for
review. The Site Plan illustrates a cross access with the Dunkin Donuts
and internal circulation. It’s important to note that the application will
come back before the City Commission because an Oil Change
requires a Conditional Use application within the C-1 zoning. The
City of Deltona Page 5 Printed on 3/21/2024
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting March 25, 2024
applicant will be required to do a Traffic Study during the Conditional
Use process for approval.
Staff has reviewed the rezoning application using the Land
Development Code Section 110-1011 for consistency with the
Comprehensive Plan, environmental requirements, traffic concurrency,
and public health, safety, and welfare.

Strategic Goal: Effective Governance & Productive Government
City of Deltona Page 6 Printed on 3/21/2024
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting March 25, 2024
Background: In 2022, our IT department identified the imminent need to upgrade our
phone system, which is nearing its end-of-life and will soon no longer be
supported by the vendor. Our current system not only provides IP
phones for all city staff but also manages voicemail, facilitates our
contact center, and serves as the IVR (Interactive Voice Response)
system for our utility billing department, enabling water customers to
check balances and make payments.
Historically, the City Commission has entered into a 3-year pricing
agreement with Cisco for licenses, funded through our operating
budget. As this agreement approaches its renewal this August, we
have encountered a significant development. Our vendor has informed
us of a delay in the product development for the next on-premise
version. Given our imperative to upgrade this year, our most fiscally
responsible choice is to transition to their cloud IP phone platform,
Webex. Opting for an on-premise upgrade would necessitate
consecutive upgrades this year and the next, incurring higher costs
compared to a single migration to a cloud vendor.
The advantages of transitioning to a cloud-based provider for our IP
phone system and contact center are multifold. This includes substantial
infrastructure savings in the upcoming hardware refresh, annual savings
on software licenses with the elimination of on-premise servers, a more
stable platform resulting in less downtime, improved cost allocation of
licenses, and reduced dependency on physical locations, enhancing
disaster recovery recoverability and Emergency Operations Center
(EOC) operations. Our thorough research into various IP phone
providers, including Microsoft Teams and Spectrum, indicates that we
stand to benefit the most by avoiding the procurement of new handsets
and leveraging the expertise of our top-tier provider, Cisco.
We are currently leveraging the Florida NASPO ValuePoint Cisco
AR3227 FL# 43220000-NASPO-19-ACS agreement with our
authorized reseller, Presidio. Having been our trusted IP Phone reseller
for several years, Presidio possesses a deep understanding of the
intricacies of our contact center and holds the esteemed status of being
a Cisco Gold partner with offices in Orlando, Florida.
The IT department has allocated funds for this crucial project in the
capital budget for FY 2023/24 for City Hall and Deltona Water. While
sufficient funding is available for City Hall, we have identified a shortfall
of $70,000 for Deltona Water to cover the necessary expenses
associated with Year 1 of this project. We, therefore, request a budget
amendment and approval of this contract with Presidio to secure the
essential funding and ensure the seamless progression of this

C. Request approval of the Task Authorization between the City of Deltona &
Pegasus Engineering for preparation of the FEMA - Hazard Mitigation Grant
Program submittal for Hurricane Idalia related to the East Brooke Drainage
Improvements Project in the amount of $30,500.00 - Phyllis Wallace, Interim
Public Works Director 386/878-8965
Strategic Goal: Infrastructure
Background: The East Brooke drainage improvements imply lowering the flood
elevation by increasing the area of the existing East Brooke DRA and
adjusting the existing outfall. Currently, the DRA has an outfall that
discharges to Lake Catherine. The project proposes an increase in the
East Brooke DRA volume by purchase of a nearby parcel of land that
can be converted into additional pond storage.
The City is looking for funding from FEMA via the Hazard Mitigation
Grant Program and has secured a positive approval from the Local
Mitigation Selection committee. The next steps is the detailed &
technical application submittal process requiring assistance from
Pegasus Engineering to ensure the City’s submittal is complete and
results in an unquestionable approval from FEMA & the Hazard
Mitigation Grant Program.

Program submittal for Hurricane Idalia related to Property Acquisition &

City Commission Regular Commission Meeting March 25, 2024
Background: 3101 Riverhead Drive is located near Lake Elston and during extreme
events, Lake Elston floods Dwight Hawkins Park and eventually
overtops Riverhead Drive, which causes discharges into Windsor
Lake. This specific home has suffered flooding during extreme rain
events such as Hurricane Ian and the homeowners have asked for the
City to consider the acquisition and demolition of the property. If the
parcel is secured under the HMGP grant, and after the acquisition and
demolition tasks take place, the City can consider keeping the property
as undeveloped land, in perpetuity, the conversion of the parcel into a
stormwater pond site or excavate it for additional flood storage, which
could potentially lower the Base Flood Elevation.
