(Assistant City Manager Shadrix) In 2017 the City Commission decided to hire Central Florida Strategies(Angel de la Portilla)to fulfill the role of Economic Development and Legislative affairs liaison on a contract basis. Staff has worked closely with Mr.de la Portilla during this time and has experienced great success in several project areas,such as the City's Community Redevelopment Area (CRA), the West Oaks Mall, and multiple other projects, most recently including his efforts to resolve issues with Lennar homes with Arden Park and Clarke Road improvements. City staff recommends that the City Commission waive the purchasing code requirements and authorize the City Manager to execute the scope of services with Central Florida Strategies for a three-year contract at $60,000/year with two(2)additional renewal years. 4. Approval of Code Enforcement Agreements with Town of Windermere with 3% Adjustment to Cover the City of Ocoee's Costs.

It is anticipated that the Code Enforcement Officer will perform the services over two(2)4-hour segments on non-consecutive days; however, the schedule may change depending upon circumstances. If the Town of Windermere would like to use more than the weekly eight(8)hours per week,the Town will pay an overtime rate of$52.68/hour.This is dependent upon the workload of the Code Enforcement Officer. 5. Approval of Agreement for Code Enforcement Board Attorney. (Support Services Director Butler) Under Section 7-5 of the City Code,the City Commission appoints a Board Attorney to act as legal counsel for the Code Enforcement Board("CEB Attorney").The previously appointed CEB Attorney is no longer available to serve the Code Enforcement Board and suggests the use of another attorney within the same firm to continue representing the Board. As attorneys from the previous CEB attorney's law firm have served as the Code Enforcement Board Attorney for the City for several years,the City Attorney recommends that B.Scott George, Esq., serve as CEB Attorney to allow for an efficient transition of those duties. The City Attorney has determined that Mr. George has the requisite experience, availability and desire to perform such services. FIRST READING OF ORDINANCE 6.
