Summary:
On December 6, 2016, the City Commission voted to create the Districting Commission in
accordance with the City of Ocoee Charter, Article XI, Section C-66. The Districting
Commission Board (hereafter "Board") began meeting in February 2017 and held five (5)
meetings, including a Public Hearing which was held on June 5, 2017. At their first meeting on
February 27, 2017, the Board examined population data from 2015, the half-way point between
the 2010 census and the 2020 census. After considerable discussion, it was subsequently decided
by consensus of the Board to leverage data that was updated by the City's GIS Analyst, Mike
O'Halloran, considering such factors as annexations, certificates of occupancy, and updated
information on residents per dwelling, as of March 2017. Using this data, the Board endeavored
to revise the district boundaries so as to achieve a balance of population within the legal
guidelines and requirements of the City Charter. The Board created three (3)plans of its own and
considered two (2) plans submitted by the public, after which it held a public hearing on Board
Plans 1 and 2. Prior to the public hearing, the Board unanimously voted to adopt a new, final
Board Plan 2, which incorporated a minor change from Board Plan 3, thereby revising a small
section of district boundary to better follow natural features. At the conclusion of the Public
Hearing, the motion adopted by the Board was to recommend the final Board Plan 2 to the City
Commission as the most preferred plan.
Process:
Ocoee City Charter Article XI, Section C-66(D)
Recommendations to the City Commission. All reports of the Districting Commission shall be
available to the public and submitted to the City Commission in accordance with such reasonable
deadlines as may be established by the City Commission or as may otherwise be required by law.
Within two (2) months of the receipt of any such reports, the City Commission shall accept or
reject the recommendations contained therein, or the City Commission may send such reports
back to the Districting Commission for further study and consideration. The establishment of the
initial geographic boundaries of the four (4) single-member districts and any subsequent
redistricting of such boundaries shall be done by ordinance by the City Commission; provided,
however, that the City Commission shall not establish or redistrict such boundaries until after
receipt of a report from the Districting Commission containing recommendations relating thereto,
unless the Districting Commission fails to deliver its report by the deadline established by the City
Commission.
Recommendation:
By unanimous vote, the Districting Commission recommends the City Commission adopt Board
Plan #2.

VI. Briefing on Current Status of Districts
Beverly Willis, Mapping Department Supervisor with the Orange County Supervisor of
Elections Office introduced herself. She presented a PowerPoint presentation, which
included Current Voter Statistics by District, Redistricting Guidelines and a Census
Update. She displayed maps of the four(4)districts along with their voter registration data
by race and party.
Ms.Willis displayed Redistricting Guidelines, which are as follows;
• Best practice is to use Census population and block lines for districts. Voter data is
only for reference and should not be used for district counts.
• City districts that do not follow census blocks will require more research and
documentation.
• Most current Census counts are large area estimates and do not go down to the block
level.
• Future growth can be hard to estimate for small area population counts.
Ms.Willis concluded with a Census Update,which is listed below:
• Census population counts for redistricting will be released in March 2022, per Public
Law 94-171.
• State Legislature, Orange County Commission, School Board and City of Orlando will
wait for that data release to begin their redistricting.
• The Elections Office is working with the State to suggest census block boundaries for
future precinct and/or district lines. The Ocoee district line in the Spring Lake area
has already been submitted.
• Future census lines can still be suggested.
Mike O'Halloran, GIS Analyst with the City of Ocoee introduced himself. He presented a
PowerPoint presentation, which included How the Redistricting Population Data was
Created and the Current Status of Commission Districts. He explained what census blocks
are and exhibited with maps which blocks were changed at the last Districting Commission
meeting, which was in 2011. He explained that the last census was effective in 2010, but
the data was not published until 2012, and the next census is scheduled for 2020. He
indicated he decided to use the date April 1, 2015, as his half-way point to calculate the
census data for this Districting Commission. He further indicated he updated the current
census data by adding in annexations and new development (Certificates of Occupancies).
He shared by his calculation as of April 1,2015,his population count for the City of Ocoee
stands at 39,060; whereas, the April 1,2010, Census population count stood at 35,579, and
the April 1,2015, Bureau of Economic and Business Research(BEBR)stands at 40,171.

Mr. O'Halloran continued to show Commission District Population graphs depicting
deviation percentage differences and comparing 2010 with 2015 (see below). He explained
to the Board that they should be looking at the"Percent Deviation." The percent deviation
for each district should be under five (5) percent with obtaining the goal of equivalent
districts.

Discussion ensued with the Board regarding dividing districts and what transpired at the
last districting review in 2011. Member Thomas clarified that the next election is in 2018,
but they will be using population data from 2015. Mr. O'Halloran indicated that is correct,
but he is able to update the data to a closer date, if they wish. Member Hopper inquired if
he is able to obtain the growth rate to present date. Mr. O'Halloran said he is able to
obtain current numbers. Member Hopper indicated to Mr. O'Halloran that he would like
to see the most current population numbers, and Mr. O'Halloran said he will bring the
updated numbers to the next meeting.
Mr. O'Halloran briefly described various maps that were displayed around the chambers
for the Members to view. He also discussed new developments within the city. He further
presented and explained the GIS application software, which will be used in future
meetings to move boundaries and view adjusted population.
VII. Schedule Meeting Dates
Discussion ensued regarding scheduling upcoming meetings. It was the consensus of the
Board to meet the fourth(4 ) Monday of every month beginning at 6:30 pm.

V. Update Since the Last Meeting
r
GIS Analyst O'Halloran described what he will be discussing tonight. He provided a
PowerPoint presentation and mentioned he will be reviewing the last meeting and how the i
population data was formulated for the districts. He advised he took the last census data, r
which was done in 2010, and updated the numbers using Certificates of Occupancies. He
informed the Board he will be discussing the work they requested of him since the last
meeting with the updated results. He concluded that he will show the Board the numbers 1
with the current status of the districts and whether they need to make any revisions; and
further, with his software he will be able to adjust the districts accordingly.
r
Chairman Keethler asked for clarification on what a census block is. GIS Analyst i
O'Halloran advised that the census block level is the lowest level derived from the Census
Bureau data. He described the census blocks and advised that each block contains a
population number. He further explained that the districts can be shifted with the census T
blocks, but the census blocks cannot be shifted apart or cut in half. Vice-Chairman
Thomas inquired if Mr. O'Halloran can come up with a percentage of census blocks that
are questionable. Mr. O'Halloran indicated he is able to do that.
GIS Analyst O'Halloran updated the Board on the work he has done since the last
meeting. He explained to the Board that at the first meeting he announced he was using the
population data from a halfway point between the last census of 2010 to the next census
date of 2020, which happens to be April 1, 2015. He updated the Board with a request that
f
was made by them to bring the numbers more up to date, from April 1, 2015 to March 1,
2017. He indicated that ten (10) more annexations and 625 more Certificates of Occupancy
(CO's) were added after April 1, 2015. He explained he came up with the Certificates of
Occupancy number by going from census block to census block and counting the CO's.
Discussion ensued regarding the added annexations and CO's. Mr. O'Halloran indicated
the average persons per household is 2.78 percent across the city. He presented
Commission District Population graphs entailing the differences of the population data is
from April 1, 2015 and March 1, 2017 (below).

GIS Analyst O'Halloran explained what the percentage of deviation means; and further,
indicated five (5) percent deviation.means the population can range from 9,662 to 10,679
for any district. Member Forges asked what population number they will be using, the
2015 or the most updated, 2017. Discussion was had on what number they will use, and it
was the Consensus of the Board to use the most updated numbers of 2017.
Mr. O'Halloran indicated that they can use the most updated numbers. He concluded and
qualified that persons per household are summarized by census blocks and applied to new
certificates of occupancy; and further, assuming occupancy rate has not changed from
2010. Discussion ensued regarding population data for the school board compared to the
commission district population and how both are obtained.
VI. Trials of Various District Boundaries 7:31 pm
s
GIS Analyst O'Halloran briefly demonstrated the Esri Districting ArcGIS software and
discussed how the districts can be manipulated with this software. He displayed the
districts along with the incumbents' residents, which are marked with an "x" on the map.
The Board had discussions with each other on manipulating the districts. Assistant City
Attorney Crosby-Collier reminded the Board that it should be their intent to preserve
communities and subdivisions and to not split them up. Discussions ensued regarding
moving all census blocks within District 3 that are located East of South Bluford Avenue,
South of Orlando Avenue and North of Maine Street into District 2 along with census
blocks located North of Old Winter Garden Road and East of Blackwood Avenue. It was
f I
the Consensus of the Board to save this map plan, as detailed above, as Board Plan 1.
Discussions further ensued regarding the deviation percentage of Board Plan 1; and further,
the Board concurred on moving more census blocks within District 3 over to District 2. The
Board asked Mr. O'Halloran to utilize Board Plan 1 and move more census blocks between
North and South Kissimmee Avenue and South Bluford Avenue over to District 2 along
with one census block located South of Old Winter Garden Road in between Citrus Medical
Court and Matador Drive. It was the Consensus of the Board to save this map plan, as
detailed above, as Board Plan 2. Further discussion and manipulations entailed regarding
moving census blocks from District 1 into District 2 to which no plans were saved.
Discussion ensued about Commissioner Grogan's residence being close to the border of
Districts 1 and 2, which is deterring them from moving census blocks from District 1 to
District 2 within that vicinity.

Districting Commission Meeting
March 27,2017
Orange County Mapping Department Supervisor Willis indicated population and voter
population are mirrored and are basically the same. Chairman Keethler asked whether
she would expect District 2 to improve with more census blocks, and Ms. Willis indicated
it will improve with District 2 obtaining more voters, but she emphasized this process is
about population, not voters.
Chairman Keethler inquired what the next step is and whether members of the board can
meet with city staff to devise more board plans on their own. Assistant City Attorney
Crosby-Collier stated the board cannot sit down together to discuss, but they are able to
individually. GIS Analyst O'Halloran indicated he can meet with them one-on-one to
devise different plans, and in the past those plans were named "Public Plans." Member
Forges indicated he is fine with that,but he prefers the meetings.
VII. Public Comments 8:35pm
Recording Clerk Heard opened the meeting for public comment; and further, closed
public comment as no one came forth to speak.
VIII.Direction to Staff 8:35pm
Chairman Keethler advised that the Board asked for staff to research the school numbers
and methodology. Assistant City Attorney Crosby-Collier agreed and indicated they will
look into how the School Board generates their population numbers.
Recording Clerk Heard advised the Board that the next meeting is scheduled for Monday,
April 24, 2017, at 6:30 p.m., which was an agreeable date with the board members.
IX. Adjournment

Assistant City Attorney Crosby-Collier presented a handout regarding The Cohort
Survival Ratio (CSR) Method, which is the method by which Orange County Public
Schools(OCPS) establishes their baseline and projected enrollments. She further explained
the Student Generation Rate (SGR), which is how OCPS assesses student numbers based
on land use and the type of unit they reside in. She explained the difference in that the City
uses the census blocks to estimate total population. Chairman Keethler asked how the
OCPS numbers compare to the City's numbers that they are currently using.Assistant City
Attorney Crosby-Collier explained that GIS Analyst Mike O'Halloran contacted the
University of Florida Bureau of Statistics whom informed him the most accurate estimate
in between censuses is the BEBR method to calculate estimated population. GIS Analyst

Chairman Keethler advised the Board that he met with GIS Analyst O'Halloran today and
he worked with the Esri Districting ArcGIS software by himself and came up with two
maps, which he entitled Public Plans 1 & 2 (attached hereto). Assistant City Attorney
Crosby-Collier advised the Board of the practical guidelines when considering new district
lines such as utilizing major roads and water features for boundary lines, utilizing the
census tract lines, avoiding lines that are not physical features, anticipate future growth and
encourage public input. She continued with emphasizing the legal principals to follow
when creating new boundaries such as equal population, districts to remain compact and
contiguous, preserve political boundaries, staying in compliance with the Voting Rights
Act, preserving communities of interests and observe partisan and incumbent interests.
Chairman Keethler thanked Assistant City Attorney Crosby-Collier, but indicated if all of
the restrictions were strictly followed, it may become over-constrained, and a little bit of
flexibility may be warranted. Assistant City Attorney Crosby-Collier indicated if they
were challenged, those are the questions that would be asked. Discussion ensued regarding
subdivision boundaries with regards to the guidelines that the Board should consider.
Member Hopper commented that the less impact to the boundaries and residents the
Wage
Districting Commission Meeting

better; and further, he indicated he likes Board Plan 2, because it is not a large impact, and
it does a lot of good without impacting a lot of people. Discussion ensued regarding
boundary line changes with the effects of current future growth within districts.
Chairman Keethler concluded with advising the Board that they currently have Board
Plans 1 & 2 and Public Plans I & 2 and inquired of the Board what else there is to explore.
Member Forges indicated their task is to stay within the five percent deviation. Member
Hopper commented on Chairman Keethler's Public Plans I & 2 indicating he would not
even take his plans to the City Commission, because it is too much change; and further, he
indicated he is in favor of both Board Plans I & 2, but more so with Board Plan 2. Further
discussion ensued regarding chairman Keethler's Public Plans 1 & 2 with regards to
district changes. Discussion ensued regarding districting deviation percentages in regards
to attempting to keep Districts I &3 at a lower deviation percentage and Districts 2& 4 at
a higher deviation percentage, because of where they currently stand with anticipated
future growth.
IV. New Business-Trials of Various District Boundaries 7:20 pm
1. Creation of Additional Board Plans Including Assessment of Legal Principals
GIS Analyst O'Halloran briefly updated the Board about the last meeting indicating at the
first meeting he brought forth 2015 data, which were estimates of population based on a
method and not an actual population counts from the 2010 census. He informed the Board
that the Supervisor of Elections has advised him that the City of Ocoee is the only
municipality that redistricts every five (5) years; and further, surrounding municipalities
conduct redistricting every ten (10) years, which correlates with the national census. He
further discussed ten (10) census blocks within the city which he believes to be incorrect
and hopes this can be fixed before the next census in 2020. He further states there are
currently 161 people who have been incorrectly assigned outside of the city whom should
be inside of the city, and 60 people who are incorrectly assigned inside of the city whom
should be outside of the city.

Mr. O'Halloran explained it was the consensus of the board last meeting to use the most
updated numbers from March 1, 2017. Chairman Keethler interjected asking if the Board
wished to make an official motion to use the most updated numbers from March 1, 2017.
Due to no response from the Board, no motion was made. Assistant City Attorney

GIS Analyst O'Halloran explained Board Plans 1 & 2 indicating the solid blue lines are
the current district lines, and the dotted blue lines are the requested changes from the
Board. He indicated the two plans are alike in that the existing line from Orlando Avenue is
brought down along South Bluford Avenue and then following east along Main Street. This
change would move Prima Vista subdivision from District 3 into District 2. Another
change on both plans is moving the census blocks located North of Old Winter Garden
Road and East of Blackwood Avenue from District 3 into District 2.
GIS Analyst O'Halloran explained Board Plan 2. which was derived from Board Plan 1,
but moving the blue dotted line further to the West from South Bluford Avenue to
Kissimmee Avenue including Bay Street. Mr. O'Halloran asked the Board if they have
any questions about Board Plans I & 2. Member Forges indicated he likes Board Plan 2,
and asked the Board if they would like to spend more time on that; and further, he
suggested at the next meeting they define the lines on Board Plan 2 to make sure no
subdivisions are split in half. Mr. O'Halloran advised the Board that it was his
understanding the Board was going to make more draft plans. Mr. Forges indicated that
he believes Board Plan 2 is on the right track; and if they have the numbers for Public
Plans I & 2,they could incorporate those into Board Plan 2 to create a Board Plan 3.
GIS Analyst O'Halloran turned on the Esri Districting ArcGIS software and explained it
to the Board. Discussion ensued regarding new and upcoming developments within the
city. Discussion entailed the following new developments: District 1, Arbors at Crown
Wage
Districting Commission Meeting
April 24,2017
Point and Forest Lake Estates; District 3. Oasis at Lake Bennet and City Center; District
4, Arden Park.

Chairman Keethler asked the Board what else they want to do. He advised the Board that
the plans have not been adopted and asked if anyone would like to adopt the plans at this
time.
Motion: Move to Adopt Board Plans 1 & 2 as ficial Plans of the Board: Moved by
Member Hopper, seconded by Member Forges; Motion carried unanimously.
Chairman Keethler asked the Board what direction they would like to go in. He reminded
the Board that Board Plan 2 is an evolution of Board Plan 1. He suggested to the Board to
create a Board Plan 3 in an attempt to decrease the numbers for Districts I & 3 in
anticipation for future growth. Member Forges indicated he liked the idea of increasing
the numbers for Districts 2 & 4. Discussion ensued regarding creating a new board plan to
attempt to move more census blocks from Districts I & 3 into Districts 2 & 4. It was the
consensus of the Board to create a Draft Board Plan 3 from Board Plan 2.
Discussion was had between the Board and GIS Analyst O'Halloran about making a
modification to the census block area from Burnt Tree Court running south to Mack Street,
which contains single-family homes on Burnt Tree Court and a mobile home park on
Mobile Lane, Security Circle and Mack Street. GIS Analyst O'Halloran advised the
Board that in the past modifications or splitting census blocks have been done, but it is not
recommended. Member Hopper requested GIS Analyst O'Halloran if he could work with
this specific area during the next month and bring back some numbers to the Board. GIS
Analyst O'Halloran indicated he does not wish to come up with his own plans outside of
the presence of the Board. Chairman Keethler advised the Board they may meet with
Wage
Districting Commission Meeting
April 24,2017
Mr. O'Halloran at City Hall and work with the software to create new plans. GIS Analyst
O'Halloran advised the Board that if he were to make that change, it would be a change
similar to that of an annexation from 2010 to 2017 or to modify the census data to reflect
the existing districts that the census data did not already have; and further, he told the
Board he will be taking the current census data in that area and splitting it and making
assumptions on the population by counting houses instead of counting population, which he
' emphasized to the Board a good reason needs to be in place in order to split a census block.
Chairman Keethler suggested to Mr. O'Halloran that it will be more efficient for him to
work with the numbers to find out what the dynamics are in terms of moving census blocks
around instead of the Board doing it during the meetings. GIS Analyst O'Halloran
indicated he can bring the updated numbers to the next meeting to which the Board can
move the census blocks from there. He inquired of the Board where they would like him to
split the census block. Chairman Keethler asked for him to split it at Burnt Tree
Subdivision; and further,asked him not to limit himself to just that area.
City Clerk Sibbitt suggested to the Board to consider holding a public hearing on the
plans they intend to go before the City Commission; and further, she advised them this
public hearing is not on their timeline, but the deadline for the public hearing would be the
middle of August. Assistant City Attorney Crosby-Collier advised the Board that the
City Commission should hear their recommended plans by September 5, 2017, and no
later. Discussion ensued regarding the timeline.
City Clerk Sibbitt advised the Board that the next regularly scheduled meeting is on
Memorial Day. She asked the Board if they are able to meet on Monday, May 15th,
Tuesday, May 30th or Wednesday, May 31st. It was the consensus of the Board to meet on
Monday, May 15th at 6:30 pm.
V. Public Comments 8:11 pm
Chairman Keethler opened the meeting for public comment. As no one came forward to
speak, public comment was closed.
VI. Direction to Staff 8:12 pm
Discussion ensued on the timeline for the public hearing.
VII. Adjournment
The meeting adjourned at 8:13 pm.

Districting Commission Meeting
May 15,2017
Chairman Keethler characterized Board Plans 1 & 2 by stating their percentage of
deviation compared to the ideal deviation of each district. Discussion ensued regarding the
number of plans that should be presented to the City Commission. Member Hopper
announced that Board Plans 1 & 2 should be presented to the City Commission; and
further, he feels no more plans need to be created at this point. Chairman Keethler
inquired of Member Forges about how he feels regarding the current board plans. Member
Forges indicated he is fine with the current plans; and further, explained Board Plan 2 has
the lower percentile deviation, which he believes the City Commission will understand that
is anticipating future growth. Discussion ensued regarding anticipated future growth within
all districts. Member Hopper shared that he believes Board Plans 1 & 2 are within the
plus or minus five (5) percent deviation, which puts them in a good position even with
considering growth. Discussion ensued regarding future growth and maintaining the five
(5)percent deviation differential.
Chairman Keethler summarized the two strategies of Board Plans 1 & 2, which he
emphasized are the same approach, but different variations. He brought up a third strategy,
which would put Districts 1 & 3 about four (4) to four-and-a-half(4.5) percent lower and
would make Districts 2 & 4 higher; which would make all districts more equal the next
time the districting commission meets, because it would be adjusted for future growth.
Member Hopper indicated he feels this Board is in real good shape right now with Board
Plan 2. He advised that five years from now a census report will be conducted before the
next Districting Commission meets, which will give that Board accurate data to go by. He
indicated he believes this Board should do the best that they can do, but he believes Board
Plan 2 is sufficient. Chairman Keethler queried it is his understanding that they believe
Board Plans 1 & 2 are good enough and asked if they wish to present them to the City
Commission. Member Forges agreed with Chairman Keethler. Discussion further ensued
regarding future anticipated growth within Districts 3 and 4.
Discussion ensued regarding making a motion for Board Plans 1 & 2 to be heard at a
public hearing within the next month.
Chairman Keethler announced he is not hearing an interest from the other board members
that they wish to create any further board plans for the City Commission to consider. He
asked if they wish to make a motion, but advised them he personally does not wish to do
that. He stated he wishes to create more board plans, but stated he is out numbered.
(6.•53 pm)
Motion: Move to present Board Plan 1 and Board Plan 2 at the upcoming Public
Hearing: Moved by Member Hopper, seconded by Member Forges; Motion passed 2-1
with Chairman Keethler opposing.

IV. New Business-Trials of Various District Boundaries
1. Creation of Additional Board Plans Including Assessment of Legal Principals
Chairman Keethler asked Mr. O'Halloran to perform a zone analysis on Board Plans 1 &
2 to determine if any subdivisions were split up. GIS Analyst O'Halloran announced he
has PowerPoint slides regarding these board plans from a previous meeting that he can
show. Chairman Keethler asked him to proceed. Further discussion ensued regarding
existing boundary lines and proposed boundary lines on Board Plans 1 &2.
Chairman Keethler inquired of Assistant City Attorney Crosby-Collier what they need to
look for while considering boundary lines on Board Plans 1 & 2. Assistant City Attorney
Crosby-Collier summarized the practical considerations when considering district lines,
which are as follows:
• Equal population among districts
• Each district is compact and contiguous
• Preserve political boundaries
• Recommendations comply with the Voting Rights Act
• To the extent possible,preserve communities of interest
• Each incumbent should still be residing in his/her district
Member Hopper suggested a public hearing date be set. Discussion ensued regarding a
public hearing date.

by Member Forges;Motion carried unanimously.
Chairman Keethler discussed Member Strickland's absences; and further, advised the
Board that if he shows up to a future meeting, he has a vote, which he states it will be
difficult to explain everything to him. He suggests to the Board that they ask the City
Commission to have him removed. Member Hopper stated he agrees with that. Member
Forges also stated he agrees, and shared that the City Clerk had a conversation with the
commissioner. City Clerk Sibbitt indicated she did reach out to Commissioner Firstner,
District 3, and she explained to him that the representative that he appointed should try to
attend, because it is his district that is being affected to which Commissioner Firstner
responded that he had spoken to Mr. Strickland; and Mr. Strickland indicated to
Commissioner Firstner that he was going to meet with City staff to get caught up, and he
would be at this meeting.

PowerPoint presentation. He stated the new dividing line, which divides District 2 and
District 3 on Board Plan 2, is zig-zagged and one home is separated from the rest of the
homes on the same street. He wants to revise this line to have it run concurrent with the
railroad tracks, which will create a straight line and also keep a single-family home in
the same district as the other homes that are located in between Franklin Street, Taylor
Street and Kissimmee Avenue. This modification of Board Plan 2 is Proposed Board
Plan 3.

this process.
GIS Analyst Mike O'Halloran presented a PowerPoint presentation reviewing the
geographic information system (GIS) methodology and maps. His presentation covered
how the board plans were created with using the 2010 census data and the splitting of
census blocks among more than one district (i.e. a district boundary line going through
a census block would require that census block to be split), annexations from 2010 to

district maps. He described what happened in the previous meetings leading up to this
public hearing, which entailed Board members instructing him to move census blocks
to an adjoining district; and further, if the Board liked the numbers and the look of the
map,they would make that a Board Plan.

943 below the ideal deviation, and District 3 is currently in the positive at+9.62 percent
(%), which is 978 above the ideal deviation. He stated that the Board determined to
focus on Districts 2 and 3, because of their percent deviation differential from the ideal
deviation. He presented Board Plans 1 &2 and advised that a negative or a positive five
percent deviation is legally sufficient and what they should aim for, which he informed
the public that both Board Plans 1 & 2 fell under the five percent threshold. He stated
they left Districts 1 & 4 alone on these plans, because they were already within the five
percent deviation. He presented the maps, graphs and bar charts to the public with more

in-depth details about each district. He further announced that Board Plan 2 has the
lowest population out of all the districts.
Member Hopper interjected indicating that if they compare Board Plans 1 & 2, it is
clearly evident that the percentage deviations on Board Plan 2 are lower, which brings
the actual population closer to the ideal population.
Chairman Keethler continued his presentation pointing out the areas in which they
focused on moving census blocks. He further emphasized the Board determined to
move census blocks from District 3 into District 2 to balance out the numbers.
Chairman Keether presented Board Plan 1 and explained that the Board moved all
census blocks within District 3 that are located East of South Bluford Avenue, South of
Orlando Avenue and North of Maine Street into District 2 along with census blocks
located North of Old Winter Garden Road and East of Blackwood Avenue (map
attached). He continued on and presented Board Plan 2 and explained this plan utilizes
Board Plan 1, but moves more census blocks in between North and South Kissimmee
Avenue and South Bluford Avenue over to District 2 along with one census block
located South of Old Winter Garden Road in between Citrus Medical Court and
Matador Drive (map attached). He explained Board Plan 3 to be basically the same as
Board Plan 2, but a minor change to the District 2 & 3 dividing line located in between
Franklin Street, Taylor Street and Kissimmee Avenue. This revision is to realign the
dividing line to run concurrent with the railroad tracks, which will create a straight line
and keep a single-family home in the same district as the other homes on that street
(map attached).

Districting Commission Meeting
June 5,2017
Chairman Keethler explained an approach that the Board discussed, but did not
follow through with, pertaining to new developments and future growth within
District 3, which was to move more census blocks from District 3 to District 2 in an
attempt to lower the population of District 3 in anticipation for the future growth of new
developments such as the Oasis Apartments and City Center. He further explained other
proposed board plans that were brought before this board involving changing the
shapes of the districts. He further stated he believes Board Plan 2 makes the minimal
possible changes to adjust the populations without disrupting many people and
neighborhoods. He inquired if any other board members would like to comment.
Member Hopper clarified for the public that the positive and negative five percent
were key factors to this Board; and further, clarified that is why he is favoring Board
Plan 2, because it is the plan that places the districts closest to the negative percentile.
He emphasized that the majority of the Board feels that once the districts get close to
the negative percentile,then they have accomplished what this Board was set out to do.
Member Forges advised the public that from a legal standpoint they had to use
available data; and further, they are unable to look into the future to distinguish what
the areas are going to look like. They had to use the current Certificate of Occupancies,
which he states may be minimal, but these figures are what they had to work with.
Chairman Keethler followed up and stated to Member Forges that as long as the
Board stayed within the five percent,they can do anything they want.

Districting Commission Meeting
June 5,2017
Chairman Keethler inquired if the Board intends to present two board plans. Member
Hopper explained that he thought it was prudent to present Board Plan 1 to show the City
Commission how Board Plan 2 was evolved. And further, he stated he can revise his
motion, if they wish. Chairman Keethler shared that in his opinion Board Plan 2 is
superior to Board Plan 1, which will inevitably take more time to present to the City
Commission. Assistant City Attorney Crosby-Collier reminded this Board that the City
Commission may send the board plan back with recommendations and/or comments for
further action from this Board. Member Hopper advised he will rescind the motion to only
state Board Plan 2.
Amended Motion (7:15 pm)
Motion: Move to present to the Ocoee City Commission a Recommendation Report with
the minutes, preferred map(s). and the Board's recommendation of Board Plan 2: Moved
by Member Hopper, seconded by Member Forges;Motion carried unanimously.
Discussion ensued regarding the next meeting date. Chairman Keether shared it is his
preference to have the next meeting on July 10, 2017. City Clerk Sibbitt explained the
next City Commission meeting is July 18, 2017. Member Hopper inquired why they
would need to meet on July 10th, which he does not believe they need to meet. Discussion
ensued regarding presenting the recommendation report. Chairman Keethler concluded
they will have a brief meeting on July 10, 2017,to approve the recommendation report; and
therefore, when presented to the City Commission, it would have already been voted on by
this Board to which the Board members concurred.
Member Hopper thanked City staff and especially GIS Analyst Mike O'Halloran for all of
their work to which Chairman Keethler agreed. Member Forbes also thanked City staff
and indicated he has learned a lot from this process.
V. Adjournment—7:25 pm
The meeting adjourned at 7:25 p.m.
