MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners of the City of Ocoee
FROM: Paul E. Rosenthal, Esq., City Attorney
DATE: March 10, 1998
RE: Extension of Certain Deadlines Related to Resolution No. 97-05
At the June 17, 1997 Commission meeting the City Commission approved (i) Resolution
No. 97-05 vacating and abandoning a portion of Palm Drive, and (ii) a Joint Participation
Agreement with the Orlando-Orange County Expressway Authority regarding Pine Street. The
Joint Participation Agreement was approved subject to the adoption of Resolution No. 97-05.
Additionally, Resolution No. 97-05 was approved subject to the Expressway Authority signing
the Joint Participation Agreement on or before September 17, 1997. On September 16, 1997
the City Commission extended this deadline to November 20, 1997, and subsequently again
extended the deadline to January 23, 1998, and then to March 23, 1998.
As of this date, the Expressway Authority has not signed the Joint Participation
Agreement due to the continued need to finalize certain agreements between the Expressway
Authority and Britt Farms. In order to avoid the automatic termination of the previous approvals
by the City Commission it is necessary for the City Commission to extend from March 23, 1998
to June 19, 1998, the contingency associated with Resolution No. 97-05 for Expressway
Authority approval of the Joint Participation Agreement.
RECOMMENDATION:
It respectfully is recommended that the approval on June 17, 1997 of Resolution No. 97-
05, as modified by action taken on September 16, 1997 under Agenda Item VI(C), and by action
taken on November 18, 1997 under Agenda Item 7H, and on January 20, 1998 under Agenda
Item IIIB, be further modified so that such approval is made subject to the Expressway Authority
signing the Joint Participation Agreement on or before June 19, 1998.
