MEMORANDUM
To: The Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners
From: Jean Grafton, City Clerk
Date: October 15, 1992
Re: Traffic Signal Service Agreement Replacement
In June the customary two year renewal of the Traffic Signal Service Agreement
was submitted to be placed on the agenda. In reviewing the document I found
several places that appeared to need some cleaning up:
1. Page 1, paragraph 2 refers to Kissimmee Road instead of Kissimmee
Avenue. I searched through many old maps and papers and found that
the City has consistently used avenue. This correction was made.
2. Page 2, paragraph 5 deletes paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Agreement
dated April 17, 1984. The renewals of 1986, 1988 and 1990 say the
same thing. Paragraph 1 states "The existing agreement is
incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth, and shall
continue in full force. . .". The Agreement dated 1990 is the
existing agreement. That would appear on the surface to mean that
the deletion is really deleted and that continuing to delete it in
this document should be unnecessary. I consulted with Assistant
City Attorney David Barker and he sent an opinion (attached to this
memo) recommending removal of the statement. This change was made.
3. The form approval paragraph to be signed by the City Attorney
included the names of Van Den Burg, Gay, Burke, Wilson and
Arkin. . .no longer appropriate, so I removed them.
The Agreement you approved previously included these three changes. When it was
sent to Orange County, their Assistant County Attorney Carol Reiss objected to
the change to paragraph 5 and insisted that it be changed back to the original
wording. The Agreement has been rewritten to include the deletion of paragraph
3 and 4 and the Agreement is presented to you now for your approval and
authorization to execute.

TRAFFIC SIGNAL SERVICE AGREEMENT
This Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into between ORANGE COUNTY,
FLORIDA, a political subdivision of the State of Florida (hereinafter the
"COUNTY"), and the CITY OF OCOEE, a municipal corporation (hereinafter the
"CITY").
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the COUNTY and CITY entered into a Traffic Signal Service
Agreement dated April 17, 1984, approved by the Board of County Commissioners on
May 7, 1984, as amended in June 1986, October 1988 and August 1990; and
WHEREAS, the CITY and COUNTY desire to extend the term of the existing
Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the following
terms and conditions, the COUNTY and CITY agree as follows:
1. The existing Agreement is incorporated herein by reference as if
fully set forth, and shall continue in full force and effect except to the extent
that it may conflict with the provisions contained herein.
2. The CITY shall pay to COUNTY the sum of Six Thousand Nine Hundred
Dollars ($6,900.00) to cover the cost of maintaining seven (7) traffic signals
and one (1) flashing school signal for a period of two (2) years at the following
locations:
Bluford Avenue and McKey Street
Bluford Avenue and McGee Highway
Bluford Avenue and Silver Star Road
Maguire Road and McGee Highway
Kissimmee Avenue and Story Road
(Kissimmee Avenue was inadvertently referred to
as Kissimmee Road in previous documents.)
Silver Star Road and Ocoee-Apopka Road
Bluford Avenue and Ohio Street (school signal)
Ocoee-Apopka Road and Franklin Street
This amount shall be used toward the cost of all parts, labor and equipment
necessary to respond to reported malfunctions in a timely manner, as well as the
performance of preventive maintenance. The COUNTY shall perform preventive
maintenance of each of the eight (8) signal locations once every six (6) months.
3. The CITY shall pay to COUNTY an additional sum of One Thousand Five
Hundred Dollars ($1,500.00) over and above the aforementioned sum of Six Thousand
Nine Hundred Dollars ($6,900.00) for the installation of new loops at the
intersection of Kissimmee Avenue (which was inadvertently referred to as
Kissimmee Road in previous document) and Story Road. However, the COUNTY shall
not be obligated to begin the installation of the loops until such time as the
CITY, at its own expense, has repaired, to the satisfaction of COUNTY, the
pavement on the approaches to that intersection.
4. The CITY shall be responsible for the setting of signal timing
parameters at all locations and any costs associated therewith. However, the
COUNTY may provide recommendations to the CITY.
5. Paragraphs 3 and 4 of that certain Agreement between the City of
Ocoee and Orange County dated April 17, 1984, are hereby deleted. The COUNTY
shall respond to all reported malfunctions of the traffic signals included in
this Agreement unless it has previously determined that the malfunctioning
traffic signal is no longer capable of repair. Response time will depend on the
relative urgency of the malfunction, workload, and travel time. The COUNTY shall
notify the CITY when a malfunction is reported and shall give the CITY an
estimate of the response time. If any temporary traffic control is required due
to the malfunction, such as police control or stop signs, the CITY shall provide
such control until the COUNTY completes the repairs. If a traffic signal
installation is damaged by accident, construction work, storm or act of God,
etc., and Major Repairs must be made, the repairs required shall not be covered
by this Agreement. "Major Repairs" shall be defined as any malfunction or
damage, the overall and cumulative cost to repair of which would exceed Five
Hundred Dollars ($500.00). The COUNTY may perform any repairs requested by the
CITY or the CITY may hire a private contractor to perform the repairs. If the
CITY elects for the COUNTY to make the repairs, an estimate of the cost will be
prepared and agreed upon prior to the commencement of any work. The CITY shall
be responsible for the cost of such Major Repairs, including any materials
furnished and installed.
6. The CITY shall be responsible for payment of electrical service for
the signal installation directly to the electrical power company. Said payment
•shall in no way be construed to be included within $6,900.00 payment referenced
in paragraph 2 of this Agreement.

7. Duration of Agreement - This Agreement shall become effective on the
date upon which the last of the parties hereto execute this Agreement (the
"Effective Date") and shall terminate two (2) years from the Effective Date,
