Clear Waters, Stronger Springs: Restoring and Protecting the Future of Lake Jesup and Winter Springs

Community Update from Victoria Bruce, Winter Springs City Commissioner

Dear Winter Springs Neighbors,

I recently had the opportunity to join environmental experts, regional leaders, and engaged citizens at the latest Basin Management Action Plan (BMAP) meeting focused on the restoration of Lake Jesup and surrounding watersheds. These meetings are an essential part of our collective effort to protect water quality, support smart and sustainable growth, and preserve our natural resources for future generations.

The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), the Division of Environmental Assessment & Restoration, and various technical experts shared progress on the Lake Jesup BMAP update, which is scheduled for completion by July 1, 2025. The goal is clear: ensure that we meet water quality standards by reducing nitrogen and phosphorus pollution in our watershed.

Celebrating the Visionary Girl Event and Empowering Future Leaders

Celebrating the Visionary Girl Event and Empowering Future Leaders

There are few things more powerful than young women discovering their voice, recognizing their value, and stepping confidently into their future. The recent Visionary Girl Event in Winter Springs was a beautiful reminder of just that—a celebration of strength, sisterhood, and purpose.

As a commissioner, mother, and lifelong advocate for our community, it was incredibly moving to witness these remarkable young women gather in one space to connect, be inspired, and learn that their voices matter. The energy in the room was electric, and the message was clear: when we uplift one girl, we uplift all.

Being a Visionary Girl means choosing confidence, optimism, and leadership. It’s about being smart, goal-driven, and having the courage to face life’s challenges head-on—all while knowing that a powerful sisterhood stands behind you. This program gives girls the opportunity to explore their potential in a safe, inspiring, and encouraging environment.

I’m honored to have been part of this event and to support a movement that’s shaping future leaders with confidence and compassion. These young women are our next generation of professionals, educators, public servants, and change-makers, and we owe it to them to create spaces where they can thrive.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to every sponsor, volunteer, and organizer who made this event possible. Your commitment to empowering girls is truly changing lives.

This is just the beginning. Together, we can grow this program—one school, one community, and one girl at a time. If you’d like to support or get involved in the Visionary Girl movement, please reach out to visionarygirlevent@gmail.com.

Let’s continue to build a future where every girl knows she is capable, equipped, and empowered!

With gratitude,

Victoria Bruce

Volunteer for “Living on My Own” at Indian Trails Middle School

Volunteer for “Living on My Own” at Indian Trails Middle School

Financial literacy is one of the most important life skills a student can learn, and you can be a part of that journey! Indian Trails Middle School in Winter Springs is hosting the “Living on My Own” event on April 23-24, 2025, and they are looking for community volunteers to help 8th-grade students navigate real-world financial decisions.

This interactive program, created by UF/IFAS Extension, provides students with a hands-on experience of budgeting, managing expenses, and making financial choices similar to those adults face every day.

What is “Living on My Own”?

During this real-life simulation, students take on the role of a 25-year-old with a career, income, and family responsibilities. Using checks and debit cards, they must make important decisions about housing, transportation, groceries, insurance, and more—all while staying within budget.

They will visit 10 stations representing essential life expenses:

  • Housing
  • Transportation
  • Banking Services
  • Groceries
  • Utilities
  • Entertainment
  • Insurance
  • Childcare
  • Clothing, electronics, health, and grooming
  • Charity & Retirement/Savings

To add a twist, some students will also draw “Life Happens” cards, which throw in unexpected financial challenges—like car repairs or medical bills—to teach them how to plan for the unexpected.

How You Can Help

As a volunteer, you will be assigned to a station to guide students through their decisions. Each station represents a real-life business, and having them staffed by community members makes the experience even more impactful.

No experience necessary!

All materials and instructions will be provided, along with a brief training session on the day of the event. (You must be a registered Seminole County School Board Dividend to participate.)

SIGN UP TO VOLUNTEER

This is a fantastic opportunity to mentor students, share real-world financial wisdom, and make a difference in their future decision-making. We hope to see you there!

2025 Florida Economic Forecast

2025 Florida Economic Forecast

Florida’s Economy is Thriving in 2025 – What It Means for Winter Springs

Florida’s economy is evolving rapidly, and 2025 is shaping up to be another year of growth and opportunity for businesses, residents, and local communities like Winter Springs. With a steadying housing market, nation-leading business relocations, and record-breaking tourism, Florida’s strong economic foundation presents both exciting prospects and important considerations for our city and Seminole County as a whole.

Florida’s Housing Market – A Transition to Stability

One of the biggest headlines in Florida’s economy this year is the transition of the housing market. As shown in the Florida Chamber Foundation’s latest report, single-family home listings have increased by over 31% year-over-year—a strong sign that supply is catching up with demand. While housing affordability remains a key issue, this increase in inventory could help stabilize prices and create more opportunities for residents looking to purchase homes.

Winter Springs, like many areas in Seminole County, has experienced a surge in home values over the past few years. The additional inventory statewide could help slow these rapid price increases, making homeownership more attainable for families and first-time buyers in our community. At the same time, we must continue working on responsible, smart growth policies to ensure development aligns with our city’s character and infrastructure capacity.

Florida is #1 for Business Relocations – What This Means for Our Local Economy

Florida continues to be a national leader in attracting businesses. With 503 net new firms relocating to the state in 2024, Florida is outpacing the rest of the country in business migration. This is fantastic news for Seminole County, where our business-friendly climate, skilled workforce, and strategic location make us an attractive destination for companies looking to establish or expand their operations.

For Winter Springs, this means new job opportunities, economic growth, and the potential for more commercial development that aligns with our city’s long-term vision. We must continue to support policies that encourage small businesses and entrepreneurs while ensuring we maintain the quality of life that makes our city so desirable.

Florida’s Population Growth & Workforce – Opportunities and Challenges

While Florida’s population growth is expected to slow slightly in 2025, Seminole County remains a highly desirable area for new residents due to our top-rated schools, low crime rates, and high quality of life. However, as more people move in, our city must remain proactive in planning for infrastructure needs, workforce development, and environmental conservation.

With more retirees moving to Florida and a decreasing percentage of working-age residents, we need to focus on attracting and retaining young professionals in Winter Springs. This includes investing in education, workforce training programs, and high-quality job opportunities that encourage graduates to stay and build their futures here.

Tourism Boom Benefits All of Florida

Florida’s tourism industry shattered records in 2024, with 142.9 million visitors contributing to local economies across the state. While Winter Springs may not be a traditional tourist hotspot, Seminole County benefits from increased tourism dollars through restaurants, local businesses, and nearby attractions.

As we look ahead, we should explore ways to enhance our own local attractions, parks, and events to draw more visitors and encourage economic activity within our community. Expanding recreational opportunities and hosting more family-friendly events can further position Winter Springs as a vibrant place to live, work, and play.

Final Thoughts – Keeping Winter Springs Thriving

Florida’s economy is poised for continued growth in 2025, and Winter Springs has an opportunity to build upon this momentum. By focusing on smart growth, responsible budgeting, and economic development, we can ensure our city remains a thriving, prosperous place for businesses and families alike.

As your City Commissioner, I remain committed to transparency, fiscal responsibility, and advocating for policies that benefit our residents. Let’s work together to make the most of Florida’s economic success and secure a bright future for Winter Springs.

Understanding SB 1118: Rural Boundary Bill Could Accelerate Development and Weaken Local Growth Management

Understanding SB 1118: Rural Boundary Bill Could Accelerate Development and Weaken Local Growth Management

Florida’s communities thrive when growth is balanced with thoughtful planning, environmental protection, and local input. But a newly proposed bill—Senate Bill 1118 (SB 1118), known as the Rural Boundary Bill—could significantly shift that balance.

This legislation introduces sweeping changes to how land use and development are regulated across the state, especially in rural and agricultural areas. If passed, SB 1118 would limit local control, accelerate suburban sprawl, and place additional strain on infrastructure that’s already stretched thin.

Here’s why this matters and what residents of Winter Springs should know:

1. More Development in Rural and Agricultural Areas

SB 1118 allows certain agricultural lands to be classified as “agricultural enclaves,” enabling developers to bypass traditional zoning and land use controls. This could lead to more high-density residential development in areas once designated for conservation or low-impact use, increasing pressure on sensitive lands and disrupting the character of neighboring communities.

2. Weakened Local Authority on Growth Decisions

The bill would require a supermajority vote to adopt restrictive land-use changes, making it more difficult for local governments to limit overdevelopment. Additionally, some projects could receive administrative approval, skipping the public process altogether and reducing opportunities for community feedback.

3. Greater Demand on Roads, Schools, and Utilities

Residential projects could move forward without requiring amendments to local comprehensive plans—raising concerns about population density increasing without infrastructure readiness. This includes added strain on roads, water systems, wastewater facilities, and school capacity. As many Winter Springs residents know, we’re already focused on improving critical infrastructure, and these changes could present new challenges if not properly managed.

4. Impact on HOAs and Recreational Fees

SB 1118 also proposes that HOAs can no longer be required to collect fees for private recreational amenities. This could affect how gated communities and other private developments fund and maintain shared spaces. Homeowners should closely review any recreational covenants tied to their properties.

5. Environmental Areas Exempt—for Now

While areas like the Wekiva Study Area and Everglades Protection Area are currently exempt from this bill, the broader implications are clear: SB 1118 opens the door to fast-tracked development, with less oversight and fewer checks and balances to protect sensitive lands.

What It Means for Winter Springs

This bill is not just a technical land-use issue—it’s a community issue. It has the potential to affect everything from green space preservation to traffic congestion to the long-term sustainability of our infrastructure.

As a strong advocate for smart growth and community-focused planning, I believe we must keep a close eye on how legislation like this could impact our city. I’ll continue to push for transparency, responsible development, and policies that serve both our residents and our environment.

If you have questions or concerns about SB 1118, now is the time to get involved. Reach out to your state legislators, stay informed, and let your voice be heard. Let’s work together to ensure Winter Springs remains a community that grows with intention—not just expansion.

Addressing Critical Water Quality Issues in Winter Springs

Addressing Critical Water Quality Issues in Winter Springs

Why Residents Should Be Concerned About Wastewater Violations

As your Commissioner, I believe transparency is key when it comes to issues that directly impact public health and environmental safety. Recently, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) issued a warning letter to the City of Winter Springs, highlighting serious violations at our wastewater treatment facility.

The facility, which is currently managed by Veolia, a private utility company contracted by the City, has been found in noncompliance with state regulations on multiple counts. These violations include excessive levels of suspended solids, fecal coliform, and nitrate—posing potential risks to our waterways, reclaimed water systems, and overall water quality.

This is an issue that affects all of us. Residents deserve to know what’s happening, why it matters, and what steps need to be taken to ensure our water is safe.

What’s in the FDEP Warning Letter?

The letter, dated January 24, 2025, outlines major compliance issues discovered during an inspection and file review:

  • Total Suspended Solids (TSS) Exceedances
    • Reported above the allowable limits in multiple months across 2023 and 2024
    • Reached a peak of 95 mg/L in March 2024, nearly 20 times the limit
  • Fecal Coliform Contamination
    • Exceeded safe levels in November 2023 and multiple months throughout 2024
    • In March 2024, reached 20,000 fcc/100 mL, a level that poses serious public health risks
    • Continued violations in April, May, and October 2024
  • Nitrate Violations
    • Exceeded limits from October 2023 to February 2024
    • Some months recorded levels over 45 percent above the maximum allowable threshold
  • Equipment Maintenance Failures
    • The facility’s flow meter has not been calibrated since 2022, despite annual calibration being required
    • This is a repeat violation that was flagged as a compliance issue in 2021

Why This Matters to Residents

Health and Environmental Risks

When a wastewater facility fails to meet safety standards, the risks extend beyond the plant itself. High fecal coliform levels can contaminate reclaimed water used for irrigation, while excessive nitrates can seep into groundwater and impact drinking water quality.

Regulatory and Financial Consequences

The FDEP’s warning letter signals potential enforcement actions, including fines, mandated facility upgrades, and increased oversight. These costs would ultimately be shouldered by the city and its residents.

Operational Concerns

The continued failure to calibrate essential monitoring equipment raises concerns about management oversight. The facility has had repeated violations, which suggests a need for improved processes and accountability.

How Residents Can Stay Informed

  • Attend City Commission meetings and voice concerns about water quality and environmental stewardship.
  • Stay updated through official reports and updates from city leadership.
  • Hold city officials accountable to ensure that Winter Springs remains a safe and responsible community.

This is an issue that affects all of us. We must take action now to protect our water resources and ensure that Winter Springs remains a place where clean water and responsible governance are top priorities.

Enhancing SR 434: Roundabout Project to Improve Safety & Traffic Flow

Enhancing SR 434: Roundabout Project to Improve Safety & Traffic Flow

Transforming SR 434: A Safer, More Efficient Roadway for Winter Springs

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), in partnership with Seminole County, is advancing the design of major improvements along State Road 434 from Jetta Point, just west of SR 417 in Winter Springs, to Artesia Street in Oviedo. This project will enhance traffic operations, improve safety, and provide better access for motorists, pedestrians, and cyclists along this critical corridor.

What’s Changing?

The project will introduce three new roundabouts at key intersections—McTavandash Drive, Hammock Lane, and Artesia Street—to ease congestion and improve traffic efficiency. It also includes:

  • Safer pedestrian and bicycle pathways with continuous shared-use paths on both sides of SR 434, linking to the Cross Seminole Trail.
  • A raised median to manage traffic flow and reduce high-risk movements.
  • Improved stormwater drainage to mitigate flooding in key areas.
  • Speed management adjustments, lowering the target speed to 40 mph for enhanced roadway safety.

Why Roundabouts?

Many residents have questions about the shift to roundabouts, but the data speaks for itself. Studies show roundabouts:

  • Reduce serious crashes by up to 78% compared to traditional intersections.
  • Keep traffic moving, cutting down on congestion and delays.
  • Enhance pedestrian safety by reducing crossing distances and vehicle speeds.
  • Require less maintenance and signalization costs over time.

Project Timeline & Next Steps

  • Current Phase: The project is currently in the 60% design phase, with modifications requested by FDOT to reduce right-of-way impacts. Adjustments are expected to be finalized in 2024.
  • Final Design Completion: September 2026, including all permitting and property acquisition.
  • Construction Start Date: Early 2027.

Community Input Matters

Winter Springs residents have played a key role in shaping this project, with input gathered from the 2019 Corridor Planning Study and ongoing collaboration between Seminole County, FDOT, MetroPlan Orlando, and local officials. As the project advances, public engagement remains critical to ensuring these improvements align with community needs.

Protecting Winter Springs: How You Can Help Prevent Stormwater Pollution

Protecting Winter Springs: How You Can Help Prevent Stormwater Pollution

As residents of Winter Springs, we take pride in our beautiful lakes, rivers, and green spaces. But did you know that stormwater pollution is one of the biggest threats to our environment? Every time it rains, stormwater runoff carries pollutants like oil, fertilizers, pesticides, and yard waste into our waterways—harming wildlife and contaminating our drinking water sources.

That’s why I’m excited to share an important initiative from Seminole County’s Watershed Management Division to protect our community. The county has placed over 5,000 stormwater markers throughout the area with a clear message: “NO DUMPING, DRAINS TO LAKE OR RIVER.” These markers remind us that everything that enters our storm drains flows directly into our water systems—without being treated.

Protecting Our Waterways: Winter Springs Stormwater Cleanup & Drain Marking Effort

Why This Matters

Stormwater inlets play a crucial role in preventing flooding, while retention ponds help store and filter water. But when pollutants enter these drains, they cause serious problems, including:

  • ✅ Water Contamination – Chemicals and waste can harm fish, plants, and drinking water sources.
  • ✅ Flooding – Clogged drains increase the risk of localized flooding.
  • ✅ Environmental Damage – Debris and pollutants destroy natural habitats.

How You Can Help Protect Our Water

Protecting Winter Springs starts with small changes in our daily habits. Here’s what we can all do to help:

  • 🌱 Keep yard waste and grass clippings out of storm drains – Compost or bag them instead.
  • 🚗 Properly dispose of motor oil and chemicals – Never pour them down drains or onto the ground.
  • 🐶 Pick up pet waste – It contains bacteria that can contaminate our waterways.
  • 🌿 Limit fertilizer and pesticide use – Choose environmentally friendly options and apply them responsibly.
  • ♻️ Reduce, Reuse, Recycle – Did you know that glass bottles can take over 500 years to decompose? Recycling helps keep plastics and metals out of landfills and waterways.

Learn More & Take Action

Want to learn more about our local waterways and how you can make a difference? Visit the Seminole County Watershed Atlas at www.seminole.wateratlas.org for in-depth information on our lakes, rivers, and streams.

If you see illegal dumping in storm drains, please report it by calling (407) 665-2424.

Together, we can keep Winter Springs beautiful and environmentally safe for generations to come. Thank you for doing your part!

Revitalizing the Veterans Advisory Committees

Revitalizing the Veterans Advisory Committees

Revitalizing the Veterans Advisory Committee

Winter Springs has always taken pride in its strong ties to the veteran community, with over 2,700 male and 110 female veterans residing in the city. The Veterans and Veteran Family Advisory Committee was established to support these residents and provide a platform for addressing their unique needs. However, recent discussions have highlighted challenges with the committee’s organization, attendance, and alignment with its purpose.

While I understand the City’s concerns about investing resources in a committee that isn’t meeting its full potential, I firmly believe the Veteran and Veteran Family Advisory Committee can be revitalized to become a vital and impactful part of our community once again.

The Case for Revitalization

As a city, we owe it to our veterans to provide opportunities for their voices to be heard. The Veteran and Veteran Family Advisory Committee has the potential to play a key role in advocating for veterans, but it requires restructuring and renewed commitment to thrive. Here’s how we can move forward:

  1. Refocusing Goals: By clearly defining the committee’s mission and aligning its objectives with the needs of veterans, we can ensure its purpose is meaningful and impactful.
  2. Improving Organization: Establishing clear guidelines, meeting schedules, and accountability measures will help create a structure that encourages active participation and results-driven discussions.
  3. Encouraging Veteran Leadership: Our veteran community must take greater responsibility in driving the success of this committee. Increased engagement and leadership from veterans will be crucial in leveraging the VVFAC to its maximum potential.

Community Voices of Support

As Laurel Ross, a US Army veteran and Winter Springs resident, expressed:

“Winter Springs has always been known as a veteran-friendly community. The Veteran and Veteran Family Advisory Committee is a vital part of that reputation. Disbanding the committee sends a message that the City no longer wants or values input from its veteran residents on these matters.”

Her sentiment is echoed by BG (Ret) David C. Godwin, US Army:

“The City of Winter Springs has always been known as a veteran-friendly community, and I believe that the Committee is a vital part of that reputation. I would highly encourage you to keep the Veteran and Veteran Family Advisory Committee active and support it as they continue to recognize and assist veterans in our city and beyond.”

These voices highlight the importance of preserving the committee and ensuring it continues to serve as a valuable resource for our veteran community.

A Balanced Approach

As a commissioner, I support regrouping and reorganizing the Veteran and Veteran Family Advisory Committee, but I also call on the veteran community to step up and take ownership of its success. By working together, we can ensure the committee becomes an effective resource that justifies the time and resources invested.

A Call to Action

Now is the time for the City and its veterans to come together and breathe new life into the Veteran and Veteran Family Advisory Committee With renewed focus and leadership, the committee can fulfill its mission to serve our veteran community and uphold Winter Springs’ reputation as a veteran-friendly city.

If you’re a veteran or community member passionate about this issue, I encourage you to get involved and share your ideas for how we can make the Veteran and Veteran Family Advisory Committee a cornerstone of support for veterans in Winter Springs. Together, we can create a brighter future for our city’s veterans.
