PETITION CALLING FOR THE RESIGNATION OF MAYOR KEVIN McCANN

WHEREAS, Mayor Kevin McCann has a pattern of repeatedly abdicating his responsibility to lead on critical development decisions — from Seahawk Cove, where he took cash while doing nothing to mitigate the project’s impact, to the Tuscawilla public storage site, where he refused to act and left permanent scars on the city’s scenic gateways;

WHEREAS, state and county audits have documented millions in misspent funds, violations of purchasing policies, failure to complete required financial audits, and repeated noncompliance with state law under Mayor McCann’s leadership;

WHEREAS, during his tenure, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection has issued three Consent Orders against the city for serious water and wastewater violations, including contaminated groundwater, missing safety signage, and hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines — violations he failed to disclose while advocating for Veolia, the company responsible, to bid for continued service;

WHEREAS, Mayor McCann has misled and made flagrantly false statements to state oversight bodies, including the Joint Legislative Auditing Committee, about the city’s finances, compliance with audit recommendations and infrastructure repairs;

WHEREAS, his decisions have consistently damaged the city’s environment, squandered taxpayer resources, and undermined public trust;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that we, the undersigned residents of Winter Springs, call for the immediate resignation of Mayor Kevin McCann. His repeated abdicating of his responsibilities to lead on critical decisions, concealment of critical information, tolerance of environmental violations, and pattern of poor judgment have cost Winter Springs its credibility, damaged our environment, and wasted taxpayer resources.

We believe Winter Springs deserves leadership that will use every available tool to protect our community, negotiate in the best interest of residents and our environment, and uphold the highest standards of transparency and accountability.
