1. Approval of the Minutes for the Regular City Commission Meeting held November 15,
2022. (City Clerk Sibbitt)
2. Approval of the Second Amendment to Agreement for Purchase and Sale between Wire
Development LLC and the City of Ocoee for the Purchase of City-Owned Property at
Crown Point. (City Attorney Cookson)
On September 21, 2021, the City Commission directed City Staff to proceed with contract negotiations following
Wire Development’s unsolicited offer to purchase the city-owned property. On February 17, 2022, the City and
Wire Development entered into an Agreement for Purchase and Sale. The Agreement was amended on August
16, 2022 to provide for an extension to the Inspection Period until December 15, 2022. The Buyer has requested
an additional ninety day extension to the Inspection Period so that certain outstanding issues may be addressed
including finalization of an Impact Fee Credit Agreement, obtaining emergency access to the property over
property owned by Orange County, Florida and to allow the Buyer time to enter into an agreement with the
School Board of Orange County, Florida related to certain roadway improvements on the property.
3. Approval of a Performance Surety Escrow Agreement and Letter Related to
Infrastructure Completion Requirements with Ocoee Village Developers Consortium.
(Development Services Director Rumer)
Ocoee Development LLC commenced construction of a mixed use project referred to as Ocoee Village Center
and, in connection therewith and with the approval of the City, has installed certain roads, streets, sewers, water
systems, drainage works, and/or other improvements under the provisions, conditions, and requirements of the
City’s Subdivision Regulations. A consortium composed of Kimaya Ocoee Village LLC, Ocoee Village
Residential LLC, and DKC Ocoee Village Center SE LLC obtained development rights to acquire certain parcels
to complete the development of Ocoee Village Center. Since platting has been requested prior to the issuance of
a Certificate of Completion and was approved at the October 18, 2022, City Commission meeting, a surety is
required to ensure the completion of certain infrastructure improvements.

4. Approval to Extend RFQ #1707 Continuing Contract for Transportation Planning
Consulting Services for One (1) Year. (Development Services Director Rumer)
The contracts for RFQ #1707 Continuing Contracts for Transportation Planning Services expire this month
(12/19/2022); however, there is an optional one-year renewal which would extend the contracts until 12/19/2023.
The City Commission can approve a one-year optional renewal. The continuing contracts are with Kimley-Horn
and Associates, Inc., and S&ME, Inc.
5. Approval of Motorcycle Lease Agreement with Teddy Morse’s Daytona Harley-
Davidson. (Police Chief Plasencia)
The Ocoee Police Department is requesting approval for a sole source procurement for the leasing of two (2)
Harley-Davidson Police Motorcycles which have already been budgeted for in this current fiscal year budget.
Recent increased enforcement efforts by the Ocoee traffic unit and patrol squads gives evidence that increased
enforcement slows down traffic fatalities and injuries, and the traffic fatalities in the City of Ocoee have remained
high for a three-year period with the highest rate recorded in 2021 when eight (8) fatalities occurred. In 2019
there were five (5) fatalities, and in 2020, which was a year of reduced traffic volume due to Covid-19, six (6)
traffic fatalities still occurred.
6. Approval to Purchase Motorola Radios. (Police Chief Plasencia)
The Police Department received budget approval to purchase four (4) new portable radios ($33,600) for new
positions in budget year 2022-2023 utilizing Police Impact Funds. The Police Department would like to move
forward with both radio purchases, not to exceed the budgeted amount.
7. Approval to Accept the Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) Grant Agreement. (Police Chief
Plasencia)
For the Fiscal Year 2022/2023, the Florida Attorney General’s Office, as the pass-through agency for the Victims
of Crime Act (“VOCA”), awarded the Police Department a grant to fund a victim witness advocate position.
Using previous funding from the VOCA Grant, the Police Department has established a Victim Witness
Advocate position. This grant-funded position was anticipated and included in the FY 2022/2023 budget with
additional costs being paid for with existing Police Department funding. The acceptance of the VOCA Grant
requires the execution of an Agreement between the State of Florida Department of Legal Affairs Office of the
Attorney General and Ocoee Police Department.
8. Approval of Disaster Debris Removal Services with CrowderGulf LLC Cost Proposal
RFP #18-002. (Public Works Director Krug)
The City Commission awarded RFP #18-002, Emergency-Disaster Debris Removal Services, to CrowderGulf
in 2018. Following hurricane Ian passing over Ocoee, the City activated CrowderGulf’s contract on October 3,
2022. The cost estimate of $626,221.17 to provide the removal services is based on the approved contract.
9. Approval of Contracted Sidewalk Repairs Utilizing Existing City of Kissimmee
Contract with APEC LLC. (Public Works Director Krug)
The City Commission approved funding in the current budget to perform contracted sidewalk repairs. In order
to expedite the project, Public Works is requesting Commission authorization to piggy-back on the existing
competitively bid City of Kissimmee contract IFB2022-002, Alternative Paving Methods, awarded to APEC
LLC, which also includes sidewalk replacement items. APEC is one of the City’s continuing contractors for
small construction services providers (RFQ 22-005). The cost estimate of $208,876.14 to provide the sidewalk
replacement is based on the competitively bid and awarded City of Kissimmee contract. This award does not
exhaust the budget for the sidewalk replacement and additional locations can be added to the work in accordance
with the Purchasing manual.
10. Approval of Florida Central Railroad License Agreement for Railroad Removal.
(Public Works Director Krug)
The City Commission approved the Downtown Master Plan in October 2016 and a key element of the Plan is
the proposed improvements to West Oakland Avenue between Taylor Street and Bluford Avenue. City Staff
have worked with Florida Central Railroad to develop an Agreement to remove their inactive railroad crossing
starting on West Oakland preceding south to Kissimmee Avenue. The Agreement with Florida Central Railroad
will permit FCEN to remove the rail and to coordinate improvements to the crossing surfaces and approaches
with the City. The agreed costs for these improvements total $166,374.00 and are adequately funded in the
Public Works Streets Division Capital Improvements budget. These improvements will be installed in
conjunction with the West Oakland Phase 2 construction.

11. Approval to Demolish Structures at 15 South Kissimmee Avenue and 214 West McKey
Street. (Public Works Director Krug)
In 2014, the City Commission authorized the purchase of adjacent properties at 15 S. Kissimmee Avenue and
214 W. McKey Street as a future stormwater component of the Taylor Street/Kissimmee Street project. The
proposed stormwater system does not require the utilization of the entire two parcels, and the City has been
approached by a buyer for the remaining portion. The sale of this land to the potential buyer is contingent upon
the three (3) existing vacant structures being demolished to make way for improved development. The Public
Works Department would like to piggyback off of the Seminole County’s Term Contract for Demolition
Services, Contract ID IFB-603795-20/CAR, utilizing Advanced Demolition as the contractor at a proposed cost
of $33,627.

(CIP) in accordance with the timeline and priorities set forth in that Policy as well as Policies 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3.
Pursuant to these Policies, the City has reviewed its existing public services and facilities and future needs over
