Beamer, Director�y� r3� Administrative Services SUBJECT: Transfer of Whitehill Subdivision Fifty-Five Water Customers from Orange County to the City of Ocoee At the minimum conforming the water territorial boundaries with the wastewater territorial boundaries resulted in: (1) allowing the City to provide the entire three hundred twenty-two residential units in Cross Creek with both water and sewer service; (2) revoking the Lake Whitney, LTD and Orange County Sewer permit, thereby, returning Belmere service to Orange County; and, (3) creating the opportunity for the City to include as water customers fifty-five Whitehill homes which have City sewer service. The first was agreed to prior to the actual execution of the agreements and produced Cross Creek utility agreements approved at the October 19, 1993 City Commission meeting. The second has been included as a separate item on this agenda. The third - assignment of Whitehill customers and the existing service related property - was transferred by the Orange County Commission in January 25, 1994 through the attached Resolution. The connection to the City's system will be accomplished as efficiently as possible so that the actions should be transparent to these fifty-five customers. Coordination with the County Utility Department has already been initiated to ensure a smooth transition.
