Staff Report
Date: September 8, 1998
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
From: Janet G. Shira, Community Relations/Projects Director3S
Subject: Founders Day- Special Events Permit
Attached is the Special Events Permit Application for Founders Day. The reason staff and the
Founders Day Committee is submitting this for approval to the City Commission is that the Committee
plans to close two roads: (1) Lakeshore Drive from the boat ramp to Oakland Avenue and (2) McKey
Street from Bluford Avenue to Kissimmee Avenue (railroad tracks).
Lakeshore is planned to be closed because of its proximity to all the festivities. The Founders Day
Committee would like to use that part of the roadway possibly for food vendors or other booths.
Lakeshore Drive is already closed from the boat ramp to Silver Star Road so we are not including this
in our request.
The Founders Day Committee is planning to have a car show in downtown Ocoee this year. It
involves closing McKey Street to traffic so that we can have pedestrian traffic and plenty of room for
all the cars in the show. We have contacted the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) since
McKey Street is a state road. They have given us a verbal approval to close the road and are in the
process of sending us written verification to close McKey Street. Detective Ken Fisher is a member of
the Founders Day Committee. He is helping to organize the car show and will be our liaison with the
Police Department to ensure we have traffic appropriately rerouted on that day. Traffic should not be a
problem since Bluford Avenue and Kissimmee/Taylor will still be open to through traffic. Detective
Fisher is also trying to stop by each business in downtown Ocoee to let them know about the car show.
The Founders Day Committee is urging them to have sidewalk sales and have their businesses open to
show people what is available in the downtown area.
