7. Approval of Change Order No.3 with R.A. Scott Construction Company for
Blackwood Avenue 16-Inch Reclaimed Water Main Project. (City Engineer
Wheeler)
The project consisted of the installation of 16-inch (16") ductile iron reclaimed water main from north
of Old Winter Garden Road and across S.R.50 connecting to an existing 16" reclaimed water main that
was constructed as part of Ocoee Commons PUD. The S.R.50 right-of-way crossing included 16"
reclaimed pipe installation within a 30" steel casing pipe. Change Order (CO) No.1 resulted in the
addition of an amount of $22,800.00 to the contract value and included the installation of 2-12" potable
water valves on an existing 12" potable water main located in an easement on Health Central property.
CO No. 1 was needed to satisfy easement negotiations with Health Central relating to installation of
the 16" reclaimed water main and was approved by Commission on 7-21-09. Health Central has
agreed to pay 1f2 of the $22,800.00. CO No.2 resulted in the addition of an amount of $40,616.00 to
the contract value and included the addition of an Air Release Valve (ARV) on the new 16" reclaimed
main and forcemain work in the S.R.50 right-of-way at two locations. The forcemain connections
were needed to completely abandon the 12" SR50 forcemain which is subject to frequent line breaks.
CO No.2 was approved by Commission on 10-6-09. Change Order (CO) No.3, if approved by
Commission, will result in a reduction in the contract value by $15,350.23. CO No. 3 includes a
reconciliation of quantities and an addition of a riser on an existing fire hydrant that was requested by
Utilities.
8. Reassignment of Performance Efficiency Evaluation for Pioneer Key (Palm
Park) Pond. (public Works Director Krug)
The EP A grant which funded the construction of the Pioneer Key Regional Storm water Pond required
the City to monitor the pond performance in reducing pollutant loadings discharging through the
Northwest Ditch into Lake Apopka. The Commission approved issuing the performance efficiency
evaluation work to PEC, the City's continuing services Storrnwater Engineering consultant in February
2009. PEC has recently notified the City that they will not be able to perform the remainder of the
work on this project. A sub consultant, Environmental Research & Design, Inc. (ERDI) was
performing the majority of this specialized efficiency evaluation for PEC.
Public Works recommends canceling the remainder of the purchase order with PEC for the subject
work and reassigning the completion of the work directly with ERDI. $57,974.31 remains on the PEC
purchase order, and ERDI only requires $49,572.06 to complete the work. Any reporting previously
done by PEC would be completed by the Public Works Team.
9. Approval to Purchase Police Pursuit Tires through Florida Sheriffs Program for
FY 2009-2010. (Public Works Director Krug)

through the Goodyear Florida Sheriffs Association and Florida Association of Counties, Bid No.
09/10-04-0120. The pricing is valid through February 28, 2011.
10. Approval to Award New Police Car Equipment Up-fit to Equiptec Corporation
for a Not to Exceed Amount of $33,500. (Public Works Director Krug)
The Commission approved the purchase of nine (9) new Ford Crown Victoria cars for the Police
Department in the 2009-2010 budget. Part of the budgeted expense is the lighting and interior
equipment required for the vehicles to be utilized as Police vehicles. The Florida Sheriffs Bid lists
police car equipment packages, but does not guarantee a delivery date. Due to the cars being in-stock
with a quick delivery time frame, the Police Department and Public Works solicited quotes from
vendors that would meet the procurement schedule of the Department. These quotes also provided a
savings for the specified equipment.
Public Works recommends awarding the police car equipment up-fit to Equiptec Corporation of
Apopka, for the quoted price of $3,463.74 per vehicle for a total of $31,173.66. Public Works is
requesting approval of a not to exceed amount of $33,500.00 be awarded to cover any unanticipated
equipment model changes from the manufacturer.
11. Approval of Purchase of a Trench Box with Professional Shoring & Supply in
the Amount of $6,792. (Public Works Director Krug)
The Public Works Team utilizes safe excavation procedures in accordance with OSHA requirements
for Excavations and Trenches. Part of these procedures is the use of a "shield system" or trench box to
keep the sides of an excavation from caving in on Team Members. The City has rented trench boxes in
the past for deep repairs, however in emergency situations a box cannot be obtained in a timely
manner. The Public Works Stormwater Division solicited pricing to purchase an adjustable trench box
in order to avoid further rental costs and have immediate availability should an emergency need arise
for an excavation requiring trench protection.
Public Works recommends approving the purchase of an 8'xlO' adjustable trench shield with
Professional Shoring & Supply per their attached quote for $6,792.00, which includes trench safety
training.
12. Approval of New HV AC Unit for Police Station with Apple Air Conditioning
and Heating, Inc. in the Amount of $6,058. (Public Works Director Krug)
A sixteen (16) year old HV AC unit at the Police Station has failed and requires replacement. Public
Works solicited a price to replace the unit from the City's continuing services HV AC contractor, Apple
Air Conditioning and Heating, Inc. Public Works has verified that the proposed cost of $6,058.00 is
fair and reasonable for a five (5) ton unit.
Public Works recommends awarding the HV AC unit replacement to Apple Air Conditioning and
Heating, Inc., for the amount of $6,058.00.
13. Approval of Change Order No.1 to Kruger SCADA Project. (Utilities Director
Smith)
On October 20, 2009, City Commission approved the technology upgrade to the Ocoee Wastewater
Plant. I. KrUger, Inc., the patent hold for the plant's bioprocess, was hired to replace both the PLC
(Programmable Logic Controller) and SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) operator's
station computer, which also included all programming and implementation. During KrUger's work, it
was noted that the existing alarm notification system was based on an outdated dial-up modem (Hayes
28,800 bps) and could be replaced during the work using a web-type system that will send notices by
way of emails and/or audio (computer generated) voicemails or text messages. If the work was
completed during KrUger's current mobilization, the City would save the cost of remobilization and
reprogramming. KrUger was directed to and has completed the alarm notification upgrade. Staff is
recommending approval to execute a change order to KrUger, Inc. for the Programmable Logic
Controller/Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition Computers and associated progranuning
upgrades to include the upgrade of the plant's emergency notification system in the amount of $2,276
which increases the original contract amount from $243,600 to $245,876.

14. Approval of Exchange of Exclusive Utilities Easement for Water Service.
(Utilities Director Smith)
The Utilities Department is proposing a future water system improvement consisting of an internal
looping project. The loop will begin at the end of Roberts Rise Road and extend to West Road near
Rewis A venue. The project will provide system interconnection south of the Florida Railroad which
should lead to greater system reliability and improved pressure. To accomplish the looping project, the
City will need to procure fifteen foot easements covering three properties. Currently, two parcels, 240
& 272 E. Silver Star Rd, have agreed to grant easements to the City in exchange for the City to provide
water service at no cost to the property owners. The property owners understand the initial service
may be temporary until the line is built and must be in an acceptable format to both staff and City
Attorney. The actual timing of the main construction will be subject to receipt of all easements and
funding resources, and initial water service may be by 2" service line from West Road.
