HomeMy WebLinkAbout04-18-89 WS . . . MINUTES OF THE OCOEE CITY COMMISSIONERS WORKSHOP HELD APRIL 18, 1989 The workshop was called to order by Mayor Ison at 7:07 p.m. in the commission chambers. PRESENT: Mayor Ison, Commissioners Combs, Hager and Johnson, City Manager Shapiro, Planning Director Behrens, Senior Planner Harper, Associate Planner Claman, Public Works Director Brenner, Assistant City Attorney Woodson, City Engineers Kelley and Merkle, City Clerk Grafton ABSENT: Commissioner Dabbs (ill) THE HAMMOCKS City Manager Shapiro explained that this meeting was requested by the developer in order to clarify the present status, as he had felt that it was brought to DRC agenda before it was ready. Issue #1 There was discussion regarding a certain meeting wherein it was stated that if in 60 days the developer could receive the adjacent property owners' approval to vacate B.C. Terry Road a certain set of circumstances would occur. The hearing to vacate B.C.Terry Road resulted in the vacating being denied. Developer's position is that the stipulations were not based upon whether or not the road was vacated. After thorough investigation, Senior Planner Harper feels that the records show otherwise. This is a policy issue staff cannot resolve. Issue #2 Developer feels that the 24" vs 18" miami curb is an option for them; staff feels 24" is to be preferred and that 18" is a minimum and not recommended in this plan. Issue #3 Developer has 2.3 acres of private park, which they will, under protest, retract and pay $31,500 if they cannot have the private park land. Issue #4 Geotechnical data regarding the retention-detention areas, particularly the sink hole depression, and whether or not the material is available for staff to make a recommendation as to whether it would deal with the stormwater runoff at the appropriate level. City Manager Shapiro said the rest of the items can be dealt with by staff. City Engineers Kelley and Merkle stated that there are at least 15 unresolved engineering problems besides the sink hole, including the wetlands jurisdictional lines. _~J . . .
