Audit Presentation - Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for

Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller, Joel Knopp, CPA, Audit

Partner, and Jenny Spencer, CPA, MAcc, CGFO, CFE, Director of

Comptroller’s Office.

2026-0366

Ms. Spencer, CPA, MAcc, CGFO, CFE, and Mr. Knopp, CPA, addressed the Board

and provided the ACFR presentation as included in the agenda backup.

Commissioner Zembower asked Mr. Knopp if during the course of his review he found

any waste that he had a concern with. Mr. Knopp answered the focus of his audit is

not on fraud waste; but if it came to his attention, he would point it out. There was

nothing he came across that was significant. Commissioner Zembower asked, in his

full review, if it appears the County is adhering to accepted government accounting

practices; and Mr. Knopp answered that is correct. Mr. Knopp added he failed to

mention there was a new accounting pronouncement that was implemented by the

County this year. It was a pretty significant lift for compensated absences, but at the

end of the day, the calculation was basically a net-zero impact on the financials and no

restatement was required.

Motion by Commissioner Constantine, seconded by Commissioner Zembower, to

accept the County’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the fiscal year

VI. REGULAR AGENDA

12. Seminole Forever Update (Rick Durr, Parks and Recreation Director)

Chairman Herr advised this is an informational item only, and no action will be taken.

2026-0370

Mr. Durr addressed the Board and presented the item as included in the agenda

backup. Chairman Herr stated she supports all of staff's recommendations. She

pointed out the proposed bird blinds on the Buchholz property are simply blinds to

observe from and not to do anything else from. The Commissioners shared their

supportive comments on the presentation. Commissioner Zembower requested to see

the capital improvement cost for the Buchholz property. He would also like an

understanding whether or not any of the species on the property preempt any

development on the property as it currently stands with the entitlements in place. Vice

Chairman Lockhart advised she doesn't need an answer right now, but she would like

more information regarding the ordinance the Board adopted. In Section 190.213,

there's a post-acquisition management and property improvement plan that is

described, but the way it's worded states that the plan must be completed not only

pre-acquisition but also post-acquisition. She's curious as to what the timeline is and

how far in advance that plan has to be presented before the Board decides what

they're going to do; how far pre and how far post. She wants to get a feel for what

they're supposed to be looking for with that.

With regard to public participation, no one spoke and public input was closed.

A Written Public Comment Form from Victoria Myers was received and filed.

X. DISTRICT COMMISSIONER REPORTS

District 4 - Commissioner Lockhart

Vice Chairman Lockhart briefly discussed the Lake Mary State of the City event. She

requested Ms. Olore help her provide an update regarding the Lynx board meeting discussion

pertaining to the removal of bus shelters and how that was going to be funded. Lynx said that

they are going to be using their 5307 fund to remove those structures. They are talking about

redoing the calculation for cost-share, and they're definitely going to be bringing back a

conversation about including the paratransit administrative overhead to be distributed among

all of the counties for that calculation. It increases the County's overall cost to Lynx. Ms.

Olore provided some additional context to the Vice Chairman's report as requested.

Discussion ensued. Vice Chairman Lockhart stated in preparation for the County's upcoming

budget discussions, she wanted to make sure that the Board is kept up-to-date on how things

are moving and which buckets they are moving to and from. Ms. Olore advised she will keep

the Board updated as well.

District 1 - Commissioner Dallari

Commissioner Dallari discussed the City of Oviedo's recent meeting regarding gas tax. His

impression is that they're not moving forward. They asked a bunch of questions, but they did

not instruct their City Manager to move forward at this time. Vice Chairman Lockhart stated

her impression was that they weren't sure what to do. They're not wanting to put the item on

their agenda, but there were some members who still had questions and wanted to better

understand. A letter was sent to four Cities (received and filed in this meeting's Submissions)

saying, "We think this is a great project for you. You should want to partner with us." She

stated the gas tax was implemented by the County on behalf of the seven Cities and

suggested a better way to engage and invite the Cities to partner with the County may be to

ask them if there are any County projects they think would be impactful and valuable to them

that they would want to partner on. Chairman Herr pointed out the letter wasn't sent as the

first piece of communication. It was sent after conversations had taken place, and there was

collaboration that had taken place in advance of the letter. Discussion ensued.

Commissioner Dallari advised it would be advantageous to regroup and go back and figure

out how to educate the Cities. There is more work to do. Discussion briefly ensued and

Chairman Herr suggested the County Manager needs to be present for this discussion.

Commissioner Dallari congratulated Commissioner Constantine on his Earth Day speech at

Wekiva Island.
