Background Summary: As currently enacted, Chapter 54 of the City Code designates the Building Official as the person with the responsibility to assign address numbers to principle structures (buildings) within the city limits. With the creation of the Support Services Department and other personnel changes, the city needs flexibility in assigning the responsibility for this duty. Accordingly, staff has developed a set of minor modifications to the current chapter to allow the City Manager to designate the person or organizational unit most suitable for the task, making appropriate changes in such designation as the situation warrants. In addition to providing flexibility in the assignment of the addressing responsibility, the proposed amendments clarify the ordinance to indicate that addresses may be assigned to separately identifiable parts of a single structure, such as in the case of a shopping center with multiple tenant spaces separated by fire walls, and to individual subdivision lots so as to better manage the development review and building permit processes. The first reading was conducted on August 20, 2013. Issue: Should the City Commission amend Chapter 54 of the Code of provide flexibility in the designation of the person or organizationa authorize the assignment of addresses to designated portions of a within a subdivision? Recommendations Ordinances of the City of Ocoee to I unit responsible for addressing and large structure and to individual lots The Support Services and Development Services departments recommend that the City Commission adopt the proposed amendments to Chapter 54, and that these changes become effective 10 days after passage and adoption of the related ordinance. Attachments: Ordinance amending Chapter 54, Section 54 -2, of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Ocoee.
