Staff Report
Date: August 28, 2000
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
From: Janet G. Shira, Community Relations/Projects Directo
Subject: City Calendar for 2001
Issue
This will be the third year for producing an Ocoee community calendar. Staff is seeking direction on
what the Commission would like to see as the subject for the photographs on the calendar.
Background and Discussion
In order to follow a production schedule that allows for distribution of the calendar during the latter
part of December 2000 and the early part of January 2001, the text and photographs for the calendar
need to be provided to the printing company by mid to late October.
Although we cannot award the project to a printing company and a photographer until October 1, staff
will be acquiring the necessary quotes in September. Once the new budget is approved and the
Finance Department is ready to process purchase orders for the new fiscal year, we will be ready to
award the project and immediately begin providing the text and photographs to the printer.
For discussion purposes, staff suggests one of the following subjects for the photography:
(1) Recreation in Ocoee
(Examples of photographs would be people playing basketball at the Beech Center,
people on the West Orange Trail, playing golf at Forest Lake Golf Club, boaters on
Starke Lake, the Founder's Day 5K, children in our parks, and maybe some organized
children's sports if they are playing in October.)
(2) Founders' Day
(Examples of photographs would be people in the parade, a car in the classic car
show, children enjoying the rides, a child enjoying cotton candy, a shot of the crowd
watching the entertainment, fireworks, people touring the Maguire House, etc.)
(3) Ocoee families and their pets
We could have a contest where people write why they should be in the calendar with their pet.
For any of these ideas or something the Commission comes up with, staff recommends using a
professional photographer due to time constraints.
Recommendation
Staff respectfully recommends that the Mayor and Commissioners provide guidance for the
photographs for the calendar, as well as any additional textual information you would like to see
incorporated.
