3. Approval of FDOT Resolution Relating to the Conveyance of FDOT Pond 2 to the
City of Ocoee and Revisions to the 2014 Florida Department of Transportation
(FDOT) Memorandum of Understanding. (Deputy Development Services
Director/CRA Administrator Corless)
On November 13,2014,the City entered into a Memorandum of Understanding(MOU)regarding State Road
50's Stormwater Pond 2 (FDOT project number 239535-3), which is located south of State Road 50, east of
South Bluford Avenue and east of Ocoee Commerce Parkway. The MOU provides that, upon completion of
the construction project, Pond 2 would be conveyed to the City by Quit Claim Deed. The Community
Redevelopment Agency (CRA) has prepared conceptual plans to design, develop, and maintain the area
defined in the MOU as a public park, currently referred to as Wellness Park. As the State Road 50
construction is now complete, the City requested FDOT convey Pond 2 to the City. Based on this request,
FDOT is requiring revisions of Paragraphs 6 and 7 of the MOU. In addition, FDOT requested the City
approve and execute a resolution pertaining to the Quit Claim Deed of the property to the City.
4. Approval to Prepare a Citywide Strategic Transportation Funding Program with
S&ME, Inc. (Deputy Development Services Director/CRA Administrator Corless)
The City is in the process of updating its long range transportation plan to include capital projects that support
the City's efforts in implementing the Downtown Master Plan as well as the 429 corridor development areas
and the CRA. Moving forward we need to identify the projects,prioritize them,and identify potential funding
for implementing each transportation project. Once this is complete, we then need to seek funding from such
sources as the State, MetroPlan and Orange County. S&ME, Inc., has prepared a scope of services to assist
the City and the CRA with this work. Tasks will include data collection, state and local coordination, and the
development of a Strategic Transportation Funding Program. S&ME, Inc., are currently under contract with
the City to provide Continuing Transportation Planning Consulting Services and all work will be conducted
in accordance with the terms and conditions included in their 2017 contract. S&ME's contract is for a lump
sum amount through the end of the fiscal year 2019. Based on the outcome of this work order, there may be
need to continue S&ME's services. If this is the case, an additional request will be brought back to the
Commission. This S&ME, Inc., proposal will be before the Ocoee CRA for review and approval on February
19,2019.
5. Approval of an Educational Affiliation Agreement with Lake Technical College. (Fire
Chief Miller)
The Ocoee Fire Department is seeking a formal Affiliation Agreement with Lake Technical College (Lake
Tech), which will allow personnel who are attending paramedic school the ability to complete their ride time
on the agency's rescue units and receive credit towards their education.
6. Approval of Second Amendment to Agreement for City Wide Towing Services with
Car Store of West Orange, Inc., and Sly's Towing & Recovery LLC. (Police Chief
Brown)
The City of Ocoee utilizes a tow rotation and has contracts with Car Store Towing and Sly's Towing. The
initial contract was a three-year contract beginning on March 1,2014, and ending on February 28,2017, with
two automatic one-year renewable extensions. The second automatic one-year renewable extension is set to
expire on February 28, 2019. The rates in the contract are based on Orange County tow rates. Since the rates
were renegotiated last year and to allow time to resolicit tow services,the Police Department is requesting the
current contract be extended six months until August 28, 2019. Both the Car Store of West Orange, Inc., and
Sly's Towing&Recovery LLC are in agreement with a six-month extension.
7. Approval to Expend Forfeiture Monies to Law Enforcement Related Equipment
Needed to Outfit Every Sworn Police Officer with a Ballistic Helmet and Riot Face
Shield. (Police Chief Brown)
The role of law enforcement in all cases, including an active shooter situation, is for the protection of lives
and property. In order to help accomplish this task it is paramount police officers have potential lifesaving
equipment to utilize. Over the past year every Ocoee Police Department Officer either has been or will be
assigned an active shooter vest. A common piece of equipment utilized in conjunction with an active shooter
vest is a ballistic helmet. Ballistic helmets have proven to save law enforcement officers' lives, as this was
evident in the Pulse nightclub incident in Orlando. The Police Department is requesting the use of up to
$40,000 of forfeiture funds(State)to equip every officer with a ballistic helmet and riot face shield.

PUBLIC HEARING - None
FIRST READING OF ORDINANCE
8. First Reading of Ordinance Adding Article V to Chapter 108 of the City of Ocoee
Code of Ordinances Relating to Fire Safety Inspections. (Second Reading and Public Hearing
Date scheduled for March 5, 2019, Regular Commission Meeting at 6:15 PM or soon thereafter.)
(Support Services Director Butler)
Chapter 108 of the City Code provides minimum standards for residential, commercial, and industrial
properties in the city. Fire safety inspections conducted by the Ocoee Fire Department are not explicitly
addressed, as the ordinance only speaks generally of including fire hazard review as part of the overall
minimum standards inspection for commercial and industrial properties. State law requires the City to
conduct specific fire safety inspections using certified persons employed by the Fire Department. These
inspections are more detailed than implied by the current statutory wording in City Code. City staff
recommends the City Commission adopt the proposed changes to Chapter 108, which will add a new Article
V to address the specific needs for fire safety inspections.
