To: The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
From: Marian Green, Acting City Clerk cl)
Date: September 29, 1999
Re: Preemption of November 15, 1999 City Commission Workshop
for Code Enforcement Workshop
Issue
Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners consider preempting the City Commission
Workshop normally scheduled for Monday, November 15, 1999 at 6:00 p.m. to allow a Code
Enforcement Workshop to be scheduled in the Commission Chambers from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00
p.m. on that night?
Background
The purpose of the workshop is to explain changes to Florida Statute Chapter 162, pertaining to
code enforcement, which will become effective October 1, 1999. Robert L. Hamilton, Esquire,
has agreed to hold a workshop, at no charge to the City, for Ocoee's Code Enforcement Board
members, City staff, and City Commissioners, should you wish to attend. You may recall that
Mr. Hamilton has retired from a long and distinguished career as the City Attorney for the City
of Orlando. He now serves as General Counsel for the Florida Association of Code
Enforcement. He has been instrumental in obtaining changes to legislation that directly impact
code enforcement throughout the state and he is much in demand for workshops. He will be
available on November 15th and that is a time most of the board members will be able to attend.
Recommendation
It is respectfully recommended that the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners permit the
Code Enforcement Workshop to be held on Monday, November 15, 1999 at 5:00 p.m. in lieu of
the regularly scheduled City Commission Workshop.
