CONSENT AGENDA ALL MATTERS LISTED UNDER THE CONSENT AGENDA ARE CONSIDERED TO BE ROUTINE AND WILL BE ACTED UPON BY ONE MOTION.

Approval and Acceptance of the Regular City Commission Minutes of July 18, 2006. (City Clerk Eikenberry) 2. Approval of Budget Transfer for Upgrade to Ocoee TV's 360 System. (Community Relations Manager Wright) Ocoee TV's 360 System requires additional equipment to program the time of day shows will air. Currently, programs are broadcast on Channel 21 but cannot be scheduled to play at a specific time each day. The 360 System lacks the mechanism needed to schedule shows on the hour. The 360 System needs the Leightronix TCD-IP controller and PL-360IS control interface to automatically program shows at 1 :00 pm, 2:00 pm, 6:00 pm and so forth. The controller will allow staff to set the times City Commission and other board meetings are broadcast each day, and advertise those show times on promotional fliers, the City's Web site and West Orange Times. The cost for the Leightronix TCD-IP and accompanying PL-360IS control interface is $7,875.00. Funding for the system is available in the current Community Relations budget for FY 2005/06. City Commission Regular August 1, 2006 I F. PUBLIC HEARINGS - ORDINANCE FIRST READING I 3. Proposed Ordinance Chapter 136 - Sexual Offenders and Sexual Predators - Child Protection Recommendation Committee. (Deputy Police Chief Goclon) The Child Protection Recommendation Committee (CPRC - a citizen board authorized by the City Commission to make recommendations to help keep children in the community safe) is deeply concerned about recent occurrences in our state and elsewhere, whereby convicted sexual offenders and sexual predators who have been released from custody repeat the unlawful acts for which they had originally been convicted. The CPRC recommends City adoption of an ordinance that provides heightened protection of the lives and persons in the City of Ocoee and would prohibit sexual offenders and sexual predators from establishing a residence within two thousand five hundred (2,500) feet of certain locations within the City. The Child Protection Recommendation Committee recommends that the Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners adopt the proposed City Ordinance Chapter 136 - Sexual Offenders and Sexual Predators and that the City implement a background check application for people who volunteer for City boards and who help with City programs. The ordinance allows for a $1000.00 a day penalty for violations of the ordinance. As violations could result in imprisonment, the cases have to be heard by a criminal court judge. Nominal court fees may be assessed to the City if the violator is found "not guilty." I G. REGULAR AGENDA I 4. Discussion and Direction on Waivers for Meadow Ridge Commercial PUD Conceptual Plan. (Community Development Director Wagner) 5. Appointment to the Community Merit Award Board (CMA). (City Clerk Eikenberry) Members of the CMA shall serve two-year terms. Currently the CMA has two (2) members but their resolution allows up to five (5) members. The CMA Board would like to meet on August 2nd but due to lack of members they currently do not have a quorum to meet. There are currently no applications on file; therefore City staff had asked for the City Commission to seek volunteers and bring those names back for appointment. I H. STAFFREPORTS I 6. Update on Silver Star Road Landscaping. (Assistant Public Works Director Elliott) 7. Consideration of Recommendation of Ocoee School Advisory Board for Removal of Member.
