BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: Currently the City's Public Works complex at 370 Enterprise St. has a total land area of 2.9 acres. This property contains 0.8 acres of utility and drainage easements, and are therefore unusable. This leaves a useable land area of 2.1 acres. As Public Works has continued to grow, particularly in vehicles and equipment, the small size of this site has become a major operational and safety problem for the department. As the department continues to grow, particularly in the Sanitation division, this space problem will only be compounded. Currently Public Works has a total of 10 sanitation vehicles to service a population of approximately 23,000. When the City reaches its planned built out population of approximately 70,000, this will require over 30 sanitation vehicles. This number of sanitation vehicles will require over 4 acres solely for parking purposes. Staff has become aware that the C & W Trucking property, located on Maguire Rd. is available (please see attached letter from Palm Tree Properties and appraisal conducted by George E. Flyth for the property owner). This property encompasses a total land area of 12.2 acres. The property contains 0.3 acres of utility easements and 0.4 acres of designated wet lands, resulting in a total useable land area of 11.5 acres. It is staff's opinion that this property will meet the needs of the Public Works Department for the foreseeable future. Pant Oa"' THE PRIDE OF WEST ORANGE !6 Page 2. Staff Report C & W Property There remains several issues requiring resolution prior to the proposed purchase of this property, such as, environmental and wetland assessment. Please see Jim Shira's review of the C & W Trucking Phase I Environmental Assessment Report attached. Staff has conducted a thorough search of all available property in the City, and to date we have located no other property of like size, zoning, availability, and price. A map of locations of equal size will be available at the City Commission meeting for your review. RECOMMENDATION: Staff respectfully requests authorization to proceed with negotiations for the purchase of the subject property by having an appraisal performed, and proceed with negotiations for a purchase contract to be returned to the City Commission for further review and action.

Shira, P.E., City Engineer/Utilities Director,// SUBJECT: C & W Trucking Phase I Environmental Assessment Report Based on a quick reading of the report prepared by Andreyev Engineering, Inc. for SunTntst Bank, Central Florida, N.A., and dated June 24, 1998, I have the following recommendations and observations. The report specifically states on page 26, that it may be relied upon only by SunTrust bank. This may limit the effectiveness of this report if we intend to use its information as grounds for negotiation for the value of the property. We also are probably not covered by any Errors and Omissions type insurance held by Andreyev Engineering, Inc. This would be significant if we purchased the property and then found conditions which were not disclosed in the report. 1 recommend that if we decide to pursue purchasing the property, we require a new Phase I report, or require that Andreyev list the City of Ocoee as an additional party who can rely on this report. The report lists several Recognized Environmental Conditions on both the C&W site, and the adjacent vacant site. A Recognized Environmental Condition refers to the presence or likely presence, or conditions that indicate an existing release, past release, or material threat of release of a hazardous substance or petroleum product onto or into the ground or groundwater. The C&W site had some leaking tanks that were removed in February 1995. On page 11 of the report, Andreyev notes that excessively contaminated soil was found and that in May 1995, nearly 400 tons of contaminated soil were removed for thermal treatment. The report notes that there is no record of any further assessment or remedial activities, and that further cleanup using FDEP funding may be several years away. It also notes that a required $10,000 deductible payable by the owner of the site may not have been paid. I recommend that we require sufficient information be provided to the City to determine whether additional assessment or remedial ion POWt rr ect r.,Iec 5 N•1N.r 1/FO .r,. • work is required, whether that work is eligible for finding by FDEP, and whether the $10,000 deductible has been paid On Page 12 of the report, it is noted that a January 1998 inspection of the site by Orange County Environmental Protection Department determined that the required annual testing of the leak detection system for the new underground tanks had not been performed. I recommend that we require evidence that the leak detection system has been tested, that all tests are current, and that OCEPD has no outstanding issues on this site. On page 18, the report notes that the existing truck wash facility does not have an Industrial Waste Permit as required by FDEP. The report also states that the sediment basin is unlined on the bottom. 1 recommend that we require that an assessment be made of the sediment in the basin, and of the soil beneath the basin to determine whether this area is contaminated Further, we should require that an Industrial Waste Permit be obtained prior to purchasing the property. On page 25, Andreyev recommends that a Limited Phase II Environmental Site Assessment be performed on both the C&W site, and the adjacent vacant parcel. The report recommends that"...additional assessment activities are not recommended..." at the site of the former underground storage tanks, or the current underground storage tanks. I am not clear why this recommendation is made, and I recommend that we require Andreyev to explain this recommendation to us in detail. The report recommends additional assessment activities in the area of the truck wash, and I recommend that we require an explanation of what this additional assessment is designed to do, and then require the additional assessment. The report makes several references to potential problems on the adjacent vacant parcel. I have not made any recommendations regarding this parcel, as it is my understanding that we are not proposing to purchase it. I recommend that prior to entering into negotiations for the purchase of this property, we require the information described above, and additional information as may he determined upon consultation with Andreyev or another geotechnical firm, to provide us with complete and up to date information regarding the extent and nature of any contamination of the site, and the condition of the existing underground tanks.
