XI. DISTRICT COMMISSIONER REPORTS

District 2 - Commissioner Zembower

Commissioner Zembower announced recent and upcoming meetings and events. He

discussed a situation where the Fire Department helped children out of a locked car parked at

a dance studio. The Commissioner stated he has a request for the Commissioners to write

some letters on behalf of Honor Flight Central Florida. He'll circulate that to the

Commissioners' offices so they'll have all the details on that. Regarding the 2026 property

and casualty insurance renewal detail, he thanked staff for saving the taxpayers almost

$400,000 on the renewal.

District 3 - Commissioner Constantine

Commissioner Constantine announced recent and upcoming events and meetings.

District 4 - Commissioner Lockhart

Vice Chairman Lockhart discussed the recent Rosenwald Community Project and Moleaer

meetings. She suggested there is potential of some type of pilot project to better manage

water-quality issues with Moleaer. She noted the upcoming Florida Association of Counties

Legislative Days. The Vice Chairman advised they received a resignation letter from Tyler

Winnick on the Historic Commission, and she will be looking for a replacement on that board.

District 1 - Commissioner Dallari

Commissioner Dallari announced the MLK Day parade in Oviedo will have a different route

this year and thanked staff for all of their hard work during the ECNL games.

District 5 - Chairman Herr

Chairman Herr discussed recent events and meetings. Regarding the Airport, she reported

OEP hired Burns and McDonald to do a mock review of a perspective economic development

selection process for the Airport. The outcome will be a site readiness report, and it will better

able the Airport to prep for future opportunities. She thought it was remarkably interesting and

something they may want to consider in the future.

XII. CHAIRMAN'S REPORT

Chairman Herr advised her office is picking up the mail. It gets picked up everyday. Mail that

is labeled for an individual Commissioner is delivered to the individual Commissioner

unopened. Mail that comes in to the Board is handled accordingly. She noted occasionally

somebody will grab all of it, and then her office misses the Submissions process. So that is

her update on mail.

The Chairman stated she had a preliminary prep for the upcoming budget sessions with Mr.

Gray. She would like to send a letter to the Constitutional Officers prepping for what the

Board expects in terms of the budget this year. That draft will be shared with the Commission

Offices. The concept behind it is that instead of being disappointed that the information didn't

come in the way the Board expected it, they can set the expectations up front so they can

maybe shorten the process and make it a little less painful. Creating a new order of operation

may be beneficial.

She gave a shout-out to Animal Services who helped her recently with an adoption.

Lastly, she noted a large document sent out by Property Appraiser David Johnson. They will

be seeing a handout that will be timed with the State of the County.

Communications and/or Reports as Received from the Chairman's Office

2. 12/12/2025 Rezone letter from J.R. Kroll

XIII. PUBLIC COMMENT (Items not Related to the Agenda)

Chris Petersen, Fortify, addressed the Board and updated the Board on the Supreme Court

decision regarding the FPFA (Florida PACE Funding Agency) and several of the Counties and

Tax Collectors around the state. Document was received and filed.

Vice Chairman Lockhart asked Ms. Latorre if she had any feedback to Mr. Petersen's

comments. Ms. Latorre stated she is familiar with the court case he just covered and takes no

issue with his summary of it. Her only comment and response would be that her office is not

representing the Tax Collector in those cases; he has retained outside counsel for anything

PACE related. It doesn't involve this Board making a decision at this point.
