RE: Removal of Member from Citizen Advisory Council for Ocoee Police
Department(CACOPD)
ISSUE
Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners remove Member Tony Kissoon from the
Citizen Advisory Council for Ocoee Police Department (CACOPD)?
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The term of Member Tony Kissoon ended April 1, 2004, and he wishes to be considered for
reappointment. Mr. Kissoon has served since April of 2001, and has attended 8 out of 24
meetings during his current term. Two (2) of the meetings that he was unable to attend were
excused absences and the other 14 were unexcused absences.
The board is requesting removal of Mr. Kissoon for lack of attendance and non-compliance of
the CACOPD by-laws, which state all members are required to attend the Ocoee Police
Department Citizen Police Academy within the first full year. A motion was made at the April
29, 2004, CACOPD meeting to not reappoint Member Tony Kissoon due to lack of attendance
and non-compliance of the CACOPD by-laws and the motion carried unanimously.
