Approval of Termination of Temporary Drainage Easement for Ocoee Crown
4.
Point Parkway. (City Engineer Wheeler)
With the development of the initial phases of the Westyn Bay subdivision in 2002/2003, the portion of
Ocoee Crown Point Parkway from Ocoee-Apopka Road to West Bay Boulevard was included in the
construction of the residential development. The overall design was for Ocoee Crown Point Parkway
from Ocoee-Apopka Road to Staten Branch to drain into the stormwater management system for the
Westyn Bay development. However, the portion of Ocoee Crown Point Parkway from the Westyn Bay
Boulevard to Staten Branch was to be constructed with the development of Ocoee Crown Point PUD.
Until this portion of road was constructed, a temporary stormwater pond was required for the portion
of road constructed with the Westyn Bay development. The temporary pond was located on the
Westyn Bay commercial tract. In 2004, the City constructed the extension of Ocoee Crown Point
Parkway as part of the Phase 1 infrastructure for the Ocoee Crown Point PUD development. The road
drainage was directed to the Westyn Bay stormwater system as planned, and the pond was not needed
any longer. The easement was to be terminated upon completion of the stormwater improvements.

Award of RFQ #1503 Continuing Contracts for Engineering Services.

(Purchasing Agent Tolbert)
The City’s continuing contracts for engineering services have expired. In compliance with the
Consultants’ Competitive Negotiations Act (CCNA), Florida Statutes Section 287.055 and Chapter 21
of the City’s Code of Ordinances, the City solicited statements of qualifications from qualified
professional engineering firms or individuals that are interested in providing general engineering
services for public works and utilities projects for studies, design, plans production, construction
management, traffic impact analysis, development plan review, and other miscellaneous engineering
projects. The firms selected by the City will provide professional engineering services to the City on an
as-needed basis based upon task orders to be issued by the City under the continuing contract.
The City intends to award continuing contracts to at least three (3) firms deemed to be the most highly
qualified to perform the required services. The continuing contracts shall automatically be renewed
annually, unless terminated by the City in writing, for a total of five (5) years from the date of
execution, plus a one (1) year optional renewal at the City’s discretion. Staff recommends that the City

Agreement and Resolution. (Public Works Director Krug)
This agreement provides for funding from FDOT to the City to help defray the costs of streetlight
operation and maintenance on several State highways within Ocoee’s corporate limits. The work order
under this Agreement will provide Ocoee with an annual payment of $32,383.00 for the 2015-2016
fiscal years. This figure reflects a 5% decrease per unit cost from the previous year. Public Works
recommends approving the new work order under the State Highway Lighting, Maintenance and

Approval of the Revised Railroad Reimbursement Agreement for Municipal
9.
Grade Crossing Traffic Control Devices and Resolution as Amended – Sawmill
Boulevard. (Public Works Director Krug)
The Commission approved an agreement for the subject crossing in August of this year. The FDOT

This corrected agreement clarifies the City’s responsibilities while providing funding from the Federal
Highway Administration to the FDOT to install new railroad grade crossing signals on Sawmill
Boulevard at the Florida Central Railroad crossing. The actual maintenance costs are anticipated and
adequately covered in the City budget. The purpose of this agreement is to allocate the Federal funds to

Approval of Winshire Boulevard (Windermere Groves Subdivision) Pavement
10.
Repairs. (Public Works Director Krug)
The City accepted the maintenance of the general access roads in the Windermere Groves subdivision
in August of 2012. Since the acceptance, the structural roadway base under the pavers at the entrance
on Winshire Boulevard has failed in several spots, because of their structural capacity. Public Works is
recommending all pavers be replaced with new base and concrete pavers at a cost of $22,000 as
utilizing concrete pavers will maintain the existing look of the subdivision entrance and is in keeping
with the Maguire Road Corridor.

J.REGULAR AGENDA
Potential Code Enforcement Special Magistrate. (Assistant Director of Support
19.
Services Gaines)
At the request of the City Commission, staff was tasked with looking at the pros and cons of using a
Special Magistrate to replace the current Code Enforcement Board.The City Commission directive led
staff to review several examples of cities with a Special Magistrate program in place. These cities have
programs that run exactly like a Code Enforcement Board except that the Special Magistrate hears the
cases, issues the Findings of Fact and Conclusion of Law. Liens and lien reduction requests are also
handled by the Special Magistrate.
Ashton Park Ocoee of Ocoee Assumption of Maintenance and Deed.
20.
(City Attorney Cookson)
The Ocoee Commons PUD, including Ashton Park, was platted in 2005. At the time of platting,
several tracts, specifically L4, L5, H2, and J (“Property”), were dedicated to the City of Ocoee or
conveyed to the City along the Montgomery Avenue right-of-way. To date, the Ashton Park of Ocoee
Homeowner’s Association (“HOA”) has maintained the Property for the benefit of the residents;
however, because it abuts the public right-of-way, the City desires to assume the obligations and
responsibilities of the HOA as to the maintenance of the Property. Additionally, in researching this
issue, the City and HOA discovered that two tracts along the right-of-way (Tracks H2 and J) were
never deeded to the City. The HOA has provided to the City an executed Assumption of Maintenance
Agreement for the Property and executed a deed to the two tracts (H2 and J) that were never deeded to
the City.
