Casa Feliz kicked off the festivities with its Christmas at the Casa Dec. 5. Winter Park families snacked on Christmas cookies, made arts and crafts, listened to music, and got photos with Santa Claus himself.

The fun continued the next night in Winter Park’s Central Park as the city of Winter Park and the Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art hosted the 40th annual Christmas in the Park. The Bach Festival Choir and Brass Ensemble gave an audience a magical Christmas concert while the Morse Museum’s impressive collection of Tiffany windows was on display.

Winter Park and the Winter Park Chamber of Commerce then hosted Winter on the Avenue Dec. 7. The annual event featured a tree-lighting ceremony and performances by the St. Margaret Mary Catholic School Choir, the Park Maitland Glee Club and the Central Florida Community Arts Choir.

The Bishop Moore Catholic School band’s drum major led the show at the Christmas Parade.

The next day, holiday hoopla arrived bright and early at the Jingle Run 5K at RDV Sportsplex in Maitland, which benefited the Boys & Girls Clubs’ Joe R. Lee branch in Eatonville.

The Christmas fun culminated with Winter Park’s 66th annual Christmas Parade. The Ye Olde Hometown festivity had paraders tossing candy and waving to crowds as local dance teams and marching bands put on musical performances.

Maitland looks to the future IN OTHER NEWS

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

n The council approved the Maitland Fire Rescue Department’s submission for the Department of Homeland Security’s Assistance to Firefighters Fire Prevention and Safety Grant. If approved, the grant would fund a digital fire simulator, as well as fire attack and fire extinguisher training equipment. The total submitted will amount to $21,340, with $1,067 being matched by the city.

multiple boards and committees and others have been working on for more than a year.

“We talked a lot about why this comp plan is so important, why we’re proposing changes, why not go with the status quo?”

Matthys said. “What we realized is Maitland is facing unprecedented adaptive opportunities … we needed to accept the inevitable. We needed to think different, because we can’t keep doing things the way we’ve been doing things.”

The new plan is heavily streamlined compared to the 2010 edition, one Matthys hopes will combat buildout and continue to promote growth. At 73 pages compared to last edition’s 216, the plan also consolidates 596 goals, objectives and policies to 328. Many of those, according to Matthys, were redundancies or duplicates that belonged in the LDC. Council generally was receptive to the new plan — although Councilwoman Bev Reponen was concerned about promoting change at the cost of sustainability — but a major point of contention was the issue of maximum density allowed for Main Street.

Ultimately, council members agreed that, despite preliminary concerns, action was needed and unanimously voted in favor of the plan, with a few modifications to protect Maitland neighborhoods from new developments. The plan will be reviewed by the state and be returned for final approval some time in March.

n The city executed a contract with Tyler Technologies to upgrade building and permitting software at a cost of $103,150. Maintenance for the technology will cost $46,935 for the following year, with a 5% increase. n The council approved a $36,073 from the city’s Law Enforcement Forfeiture Trust Fund for the 2019 fiscal budget. The funds will be used to purchase a Cisco Catalyst network switch with associated software and will update the police department’s network capacity. n The council moved to adopt a 10-year water supply work plan as part of the city’s CDP. The plan, which spans from 2018 to 2028, will be sent to the state for review and approval. n The Dec. 24 City Council meeting has been canceled.

The next meeting will be on Jan. 8, 2019.

AIRBNB REGULATIONS

After weeks of tweaking and modifying, council members approved a series of regulations on short-term dwelling rentals such as AirBnb.

The new regulations apply to one- to four-family dwellings and include requiring an annual STR certificate; establishing a maximum occupancy of eight people as well as parking requirements of one space per two occupants; and requiring the rentals to be owner-occupied or hoststay occupied. This will, in theory, prevent multiple locations being bought up and repurposed as makeshift hotels in Maitland neighborhoods.

The ordinance also has language prohibiting rentals to people convicted of sexual offenses.

The motion passed unanimously.

JEWISH CENTER EXPANSION APPROVED

Council approved an amendment to a proposed development for the Jewish Community Center.

The Jewish Federation of Greater Orlando, which owns the property, plans to install a number of additions including a reconfigured parking lot, 20-foot-tall light poles, a retaining wall, five tennis courts with connecting sidewalks, a new artificial turf soccer field to replace the existing tennis courts, and more.

Council agreed to the expansion with the inclusion of three precautionary modifications — the parking lot construction must be done before being issued a certificate of completion, a 20-foot-tall ball-stopper net must be finished before the

soccer field can be completed, and that the permit doesn’t give the federation the right to obtain a state or federal permit.

DECISIONS

The council also approved a number of other decisions in the second half of the meeting. Following the approval of the consent agenda and the public period, council members approved a planned development proposal on the west side of Keller Road and south of Fennell Street. The 4.74-acre location is intended to become a gated community that includes 50 condo units that are six stories tall that will come with a 102-space parking area along with a clubhouse, pool and lanai.

The council approved the request with five conditions: The applicant will dedicate both a 12-foot-wide boardwalk easement to the city along Lake Shadow for pedestrian use as well as a 20-foot right-of-way along Keller Road for future use; a 10-foot-wide sidewalk and parkway along Keller Road; the creation of an HOA; and will amend the existing MOU with the city of Altamonte Springs before the site permit is issued.

The city also accepted a 3.38acre parcel of wetlands from the city of Winter Park as part of an earlier de-annexation agreement. The land will be used for open space and an outdoor recreational area for the public.

Parking options CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

options at their Dec. 10 meeting to install parking along Comstock Avenue within city right-of-way, which would correspond to the existing parking lot on the north side of the street next to the Rollins College softball stadium.

The first option is to position the parking spaces perpendicular to the curb, yielding 65 spaces. A second option would place the spaces at a 60-degree angle, creating 59 spaces.

It’s slower and a little more difficult to park in the perpendicular parking versus the angled parking, but it provides the most spaces, according to city staff.

Either option would cost the city about $150,000 and would involve forming an agreement with the incoming Verax medical site currently under development to the south. The project would encroach on that property by two or three feet.

“Before we went to final design, I wanted to just lay it out and see if there’s interest in exploring it further to get to a more final design,” Public Works Director Troy Attaway said.

City Commissioner Pete Weldon said it may make more sense for the item to go before the city’s

Community Redevelopment Agency Board, because that pulls from funds that are more readily available.

“I wanted to bring up the possibility of considering this at a CRA meeting, where it can be funded from more flexible dollars, if you will,” Weldon said. “I’d like to keep as much as we have in the general fund, because those dollars are not as generously available as are the CRA monies going forward.”

City Commissioner Carolyn Cooper supported that idea as well and said she would like to see how added parking along Comstock could affect the need for parking at the proposed library and events center set for the northwest corner of Martin Luther King Jr. Park.

“I would like to look at this versus the parking garage to support the library and event center and perhaps the rooftop venue,” she said.

The City Commission ultimately decided to pass the matter to the CRA Board, with a meeting set for early next year.

just south of the Hillstone restaurant along U.S. 17-92.

The Henderson Hotel project would involve numerous variances and encroachment on city roads, and City Manager Randy Knight said the applicant has requested a workshop in the hopes of gauging the city’s appetite for such a project.

The location of the hotel is the block south of Beachview Avenue, west of Killarney Drive, east of U.S. 17-92 and north of Fairview Avenue.

“Before they get into the high cost of design — their plans call for some use of city right-ofway — they have requested a work session with the City Commission just to see if there’s any interest at all in the city participating,” Knight said.

The new hotel on Lake Killarney could include a parking garage and retail space. City Commissioners agreed to have a workshop before one of their January meetings.

Trinity Key Club to propose little free library in MLK Park Trinity Prep students’ project would add a little free library to Martin Luther King Jr. Park.

TIM FREED ASSOCIATE EDITOR

A group of Trinity Preparatory School students hope to help local residents curl up with a good book — on the green open spaces of Winter Park’s Martin Luther King Jr. Park.

Trinity Prep students from the Key Club are working on installing a little free library at the local park as part of their Keys to Educate project — an initiative to encourage literacy, assist immigrants picking up English as a second language and get books into the hands of children and their families.

Tenth-grade class representative Thomas Lightsey proposed the idea in August, Key Club President and Trinity Prep senior Akua Appah-Sampong said.

“We felt that with the park being such a central location in Winter

Park with families and teenagers constantly going to the park, we felt that the free library would be easily accessible to a range of people,” Appah-Sampong said.

The little free library has a simple system: take a book, leave a book. The small collection of different books will change and diversify over time to give locals more books to read, similar to the library that exists at Lake Baldwin Park.

Appah-Sampong said the library would hold at least 20 books and ideally be placed somewhere in the center of the park, she said.

“No matter what, we felt that just by having the free library available to people of various ages, it would help promote reading and education within our community,” Appah-Sampong said.

The Key Club at Trinity Prep is part of the Florida District of Key Club International — an organization that focuses on community service and building character in high school students around the world. Trinity Prep’s club was founded in 1970 with about 20 members. Today the club is com-

prised of more than 130 highschoolers passionate about helping others.

In the past, the club has visited Ronald McDonald House Charities and Coalition for the Homeless, and hosted fundraisers for various causes such as UNICEF’s Eliminate Project, which looks to eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus worldwide.

The library is just the latest effort to lend a helping hand and make Winter Park a better place, Appah-Sampong said.

“I’m extremely hopeful that the free library will leave an impact

in the Winter Park community,” she said. “I think that just by having an area where people can go to maybe find new books that maybe they haven’t read before — or even donate books that they were planning on donating to Goodwill — I think people are really going to enjoy having this resource at Martin Luther King Jr. Park.”

Appah-Sampong said the club hopes to present the project to the city of Winter Park in January. The library would hopefully be installed within a month of that approval, she said.

“I’m extremely hopeful that the free library will leave an impact in the Winter Park community.”

The amendment, which would allow duplex homes to be split into two residences, will be sent to City Council.

HARRY SAYER BLACK TIE REPORTER

The Maitland Planning and Zoning Board spent quite a bit of time reaching an agreement on an amendment to the zoning code splitting duplexes within the city during a lengthy meeting Thursday, Dec. 6.

In October, a representative for the Meridian Homes contractor approached the City Council to request staff draft an amendment to the land development code allowing property owners the chance to split duplex lots for fee simple ownership — a more complete form of ownership.

City staff drafted an amendment allowing fee-simple ownership of two-family dwellings. It also included a process where the property owners may exercise the ability to divide the two-family residence into two single-family units to be sold on individual lots or to be sold as individual units.

Externally, the buildings would look the same. It’s a practice already done in parts of unincorporated Orange and Seminole counties, according to city staff.

These specific “optional conjoined dwellings” would be approved by the city’s development review committee through a lot-split process. There would be a declaration of covenants and

a number of restrictions for this process, though, including the requirement of provision governing insurance, maintenance and repair of party walls and the exterior of the residence.

City staff felt this was the right move at the right time. Community development director Dan Matthys spoke to a growth in smaller residences among Millennials, a demographic the city is hoping to attract to promote growth.

Staff presented the board with three options: Recommend approval of the amendment; recommend it with changes; or recommend denial. It urged the board to move the amendment to the City Council.

But the amendment became a topic of debate between the board and city staff, beginning with board member Barry Kalmanson expressing his philosophical disagreement with the concept.

“Think of all the neighborhoods you live in … there’s some undesirable houses on that street,” Kalmanson said. “Think if that was connected to your house, and the neighbor is not willing to pay for anything, and then all it does is promote lawsuits.”

Kalmanson believed that, compared to larger residences such as condos or neighborhoods with HOAs, a duplex would have the

issue of having only two votes where each would negate the other and lead to lawsuits against other residents and the city. His suggestion was to have property owners either own triplexes or two duplexes to break that possible tie.

Matthys responded with the belief the ordinance was written in a way to protect residents and the city as much as possible and that lawsuits are always going to be a possibility in any social setting.

One conflict resolution example he said staff examined was a mediation process similar to an HOA, where residents contribute monthly funds to repair damage as well as another situation where a property owner may have the right to do repairs after 10 days.

He also spoke to the firewalls that can be put in place between the residences to keep damage from one side affecting the other.

The board ultimately approved the amendment with a few changes in wording, including a footnote expressing concerns with possible one-to-one conflict. Kalmanson was the only dissenting vote.

Winter Park Mayor Steve Leary was elected to the Board of Directors of the Florida League of Mayors for a term ending August 2018. The Florida League of Mayors is an organization for mayors and governed by a Board of Directors of mayors from around the state representing geographical districts.

Winter Park City Commission ers are pondering their approach to medical marijuana dispensaries in the wake of Gov. Rick Scott signing the medical marijuana bill into law last week.

City Attorney Kurt Ardaman gave the City Commission an idea of what’s next for the city of Winter Park during their meeting on Monday. The state legislation on medical marijuana preempts any local regulations in place, but

does give cities the opportunity to ban dispensaries if they choose to do so, he said.

Unless the facilities are banned outright though, the city has no control over where the dispensaries go or how many of them

Will Winter Park ban medical marijuana dispensaries?

Some City Commissioners think it’s for the best for now.

The general purpose of the League of Mayors is to provide a forum for Florida mayors to: • Jointly study and assist each other in solutions to problems faced by Florida’s municipalities.

• Work cooperatively for the general improvement and efficient administration of Florida’s municipalities.

• Promote the exchange of ideas and experiences in successful methods of administration of Florida’s municipalities.

Strength training at any age can help improve muscle mass and bone density of retirement a few years ago to join Elite because, he said, he saw the value in what they offered their clients.

“The equipment here is top of the line and the techniques produce results like no other,” Rinehart said.

At Elite, education is as important as the equipment. Before clients spend anytime working out, they share their medical history, goals and concerns with trainers who develop a plan that covers time inside and outside of the gym.

“Clients’ needs are evaluated and we give them a detailed analysis of what they need to do, especially at home, to accomplish their goals,” said owner Monte Mitchell.

Homework might include keeping food and exercise journals to learn more about their habits, especially if weight loss is a goal.

The gym also offers a 12-week group nutrition workshop to their members, guaranteeing results for their clients, provided they follow all the recommendations made during their consultation.

70-year-old physician Dr. Maria Bors has been a client of Elite for seven years and finds that training there fits quite nicely into her busy lifestyle.

“The 20-minute workouts are easy for me to fit in and I find them easy to commit to,” Bors said.

Rather than working out with sweaty, bulked-up gym rats, Elite’s clients find an almost Zen-like atmosphere, with trainers attentive to their every motion.

Speaking in tones of calm assurance, trainers offer equal parts encouragement and challenge, pushing clients to new levels.

The workouts are physically demanding, but not in the way one might expect.

Motions are slow and intensely controlled, demanding maximum effort from muscles while barely breaking a sweat.

“Many clients don’t even change out of office clothes,” Rinehart said. “They simply don’t need to.”

Before beginning with Elite, Bors suffered from daily back pain, but after just a few months in the gym, she experienced a noticeable change in pain levels and now rarely suffers at all.

“It’s been remarkable for me,” she said. “I can feel how strong I am, especially when I am traveling carrying luggage. I have a strength I never had before.”

“The strength training is very good for preventing bone loss,” said Bors, “which is something we all need as we age.”

Allison Olcsvay Three years ago, the client was facing the same prognosis that she has watched her mother suffer with for de-cades. The progressive osteopenia would someday develop into osteoporosis, bringing on devastating broken bones and pain.

“My mother is 93 now, and I’ve watched her suffer so much; I just don’t want that to happen to me,” she said.

Medication to strengthen her bones never produced significant results, and after years of taking them, she decided to try a new course of action.

Following the recommendation of a friend she signed on with Elite Strength and Fitness of Winter Park and began following a twice-weekly strengthtraining regimen designed to increase her muscle mass and bone density.

At her next DEXA scan to measure density, the client's doctor noticed a big change and she was able to stop taking her medication.

Success stories like hers don’t come easy though; it took months of intense workouts with the guidance of personal trainers to get there.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 14, 2018

Night, Pinel join Premier Sotheby’s Mick Night and John Pinel specialize in the luxury market in Winter Park.

ASSOCIATE EDITOR

Winter Park real-estate duo Mick Night and John Pinel recently made the decision to join the Winter Park office of Premier Sotheby’s International Realty, bringing with them more than 40 years of combined experience and more than $1.5 billion in career sales volume.

The two previously were with Coldwell Banker Real Estate.

That company rated them the No. 1 small team in North America in 2017 — a year where Night and Pinel saw $181 million in sales volume.

Night said the decision stemmed from discussions with Premier Sotheby’s about three years ago. At that time, Night’s son, John Michael, had just suffered a brain-stem stroke and that commanded every bit of his attention.

Later, talks resumed and even-

“I just felt like if I was going to make a move, now is the time to do it.”

— Mick Night

tually Night and Pinel agreed that the transition was the right move to make.

“We tabled the whole thing, and I hadn’t been open to doing anything until really the last three months or so,” Night said.

“For whatever reason, it kind of heated back up. We had to get to a place where I was comfortable and felt stable enough past John Michael’s stroke and where we were headed, which is a continual journey, of course.”

Close connections with the staff at the Premier Sotheby’s Winter Park office played a major role in the decision, Night said.

“Danny Williams is the manager of the company, and Danny’s been a friend of mine for over 20 years, maybe 25,” Night said.

“He and I were actually business partners for two or three years when the market was really tough. We have that connection — that friendship connection.

“The CEO of the Premier Sotheby’s franchise is Judy Green, and she is like a second mom to me,” he said. “She’s been great friends with my mom for many, many years, and she got into the business. The president is Budge Huskey, who’s also a family friend, so I have a personal connection with the CEO, the president and the office manager.”

407.645.4321

The Premier Sotheby’s reputation and the small, boutiquestyle office of about 30 employees also were incentives to move, Night said.

“The draw was certainly the Sotheby’s name and the Sotheby’s brand — not to take anything away from Coldwell Banker,” Night said. “Obviously, it’s a topnotch international company, as well. The Sotheby’s brand I just felt like was more boutique and had more of a luxury element to it, if you will, and culture all the way back to the auction house. …

The Sotheby’s company has been and still is the oldest company on the New York Stock Exchange. It

goes back to 1744.”

Pinel agreed.

“The brand aligns well with our business model, because Mick has focused on the Winter Park market for 31 years,” he said. “It’s morphed into, overtime, mainly the higher-end market, the lakefronts and the big estates.”

Night said he and Pinel are thrilled about their new company.

“I was at a point in my career where I just felt like I needed a change,” he said. “I needed something to energize me and excite me. I’ve been through a lot obviously in the last three years — not near as much as my son, not even

close — but our family as a whole has been through a tremendous amount of stress and pressure along with the typical day-today routine that everybody goes through. I was just at a point where I felt like there’s a reason Danny was being patient with me over the last three years. Three years is a long time to be talking on and off about this move. He left it up to me, and for whatever reason something just clicked in the last few months. … I just felt like if I was going to make a move, now is the time to do it.”

come from members of the Cowboy Artist’s Association of Florida, Cowboy “craftsmen” from around the state, private collections and the Seminole Tribe.

ART NOUVEAU FROM EUROPE AND AMERICA At The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art, 445 N. Park Ave., Winter Park. Art Nouveau arose almost simultaneously in Paris, London, Vienna, Munich, Milan and Barcelona.

Horrified by the cheap, mass-produced goods typical of industrial production in the 19th century, artists set out not only to improve design but to make it modern.

Stylistically, Art Nouveau varied by region. Although the objects could include strong straightline geometry, Art Nouveau was dominated by elegant curves and counter-curves, asymmetrical composition, and sinuous, sensuous line. For more information about the exhibit and museum hours, call (407) 645-5311.

ART CLASSES AT THE MAITLAND SENIOR CENTER 1 to 3 p.m. Wednesdays at the Maitland Senior Center, 345 S. Maitland Ave., Maitland. Get help with techniques in this art class.
