Gentlemen:
At the request of your City Manager, Mr. John Vignetti, I have conducted
a visit to the Pioneer Key I Mobile Home Park and the Pioneer Key II Mobile
Home Park, Ocoee. The purpose for my visit to these sites was to review
the projece in general for engineering acceptance by the City of Ocoee.
Both of tlwse projects were developed some years ago without the benefit
of present rules and regulations for the subdivision of land in the City
of Ocoee. It is understood that there have been no complaints whatsoever
regarding the storm drainage or water service that presently se'rvus both
these p rojects.
In view of the above, I would recommend that the City of Oc()(.e
accepting t lie existing paving, drainage and water distribut i.c; i faci 1 c 1
for both c,,nmiunities. Final :acceptance should be subject tct a one
guarantee . -qainst 'faulty workmanship and/or materials. In -,hort, a 1-final

developer to maintain these facilities at his expense. Further, at the close
of the warranty period, to would be his responsibility to take whatever

acceptance.
