AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
Date: August 9, 2004 Meeting Date: August 17, 2004
Subject: Intent to Annex for Water Service
Issue:
The City has been approached by four property owners for water service. Because the properties
are not contiguous to properties already annexed into the City,these agreements are Intents to
Annex for Water Service.
Recommendation:
The Public Works-Engineering Staff recommends that the Mayor and City Commission approve
the Intent to Annex request by the four property owners and direct the Mayor and City Clerk to
execute the Annexation Agreements and direct staff to proceed with the process to provide these
properties with City water service.
Background Summary:
Those four properties and their respective owners are: 1)Arild and Susan Johansen at 122 11th
Street; 2)Manuel Novoa at 1527 Clarcona-Ocoee Road; 3)Jeffery and Jessica Cockcroft at 1451
Clarcona-Ocoee Road; and 4) Christopher and Donna Metherall at 420 First Street. With the
exception of the Johansen property all of the other properties are served by wells. Each of these
owners has agreed to annex into the City when their property is annexable.
Fiscal Impacts:
Each property owner is paying the City's capital charge for water service and the costs
associated with each connection.

STAFF REPORT
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
FROM: David A. Wheeler,P.E. Al
Director of Public Works
DATE: August 9, 2004
RE: Christopher and Donna Metherall
420 First Street
Intent to Annex for Water Service
ISSUE
Staff requests that the Mayor and City Commission approve and execute the Intent to Annex
Agreement with Christopher and Donna Metherall to provide water service to their property.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Metheralls, who resides at 420 First Street, approached the City for utility service. The
property currently has a well for water service. Attached please find a copy of the Intent to
Annex agreement for the Metheralls. The property is currently within unincorporated Orange
County and is not contiguous to the City Limits. However the property is inside the City's WA
boundary, Water & Sewer Territorial Boundary, and City Limits. See attached map from City's
GIS Department. Therefore, this is just an Intent to Annex for Water Service at this time.
There is a 6" water main along the west side of First Street that could be tapped for water
service. There are no sewer facilities in the area to even consider sanitary sewer service. There
is available capacity in the potable water system for this one additional residential customer.
The City's requirement about annexation/intent to annex to be able to provide service and the
differences between resident service and non-resident service were discussed with the
Metheralls. The City's fee requirements for an Intent to Annex application approval are
provided below:
• Application Processing and Recording Fee of$100
• Water Impact Fee of$1,139.88 ($966 plus an 18% surcharge for non-residents)
• Connection fee of$500
• Water deposit of$60 (refundable after two years of prompt payments)
• Utility rates for water and/or sewer per the attached rate sheet (cost of service base rate plus
consumption charge times 18% surcharge for non-residents)
• The stormwater drainage and solid waste rates would not apply until the annexation process
is complete
Upon annexation, the utility rates would reduce to city resident charges. Also, should the
property become contiguous to the City Limits and the Metheralls decide to not proceed with the
annexation of their property, the City has the right to discontinue service until such time as
annexation is completed.
The procedure for obtaining water service was discussed with the Metheralls:
Staff review the intent to annex application
Submission to the DRC Committee for action
If approved by DRC the application would be presented to the City Commission for action
With approval of the City Commission, the Metheralls would fill out a customer application and
pay the aforementioned fees
City would issue a work order for the service line and meter installation, which would take
approximately two weeks to schedule the work
The Metheralls were advised that the City only provides service to the edge of the road right-of-
way, the property line at the street. They will need to hire a plumber to do all necessary work
from the house out to the street, which will require a permit from the Orange County Building
Department. They will need to disconnect their well from the house connection; however they
are encouraged to use their well for irrigation purposes. They will also be required to purchase
and install a backflow prevention device to be installed on their side of the water meter, which
will be inspected by Ocoee's backflow technician. The yearly inspection and maintenance of
that backflow preventer is the Metherall's responsibility and must be documented to the City
every year.
The Development Review Committee approved the Intent to Annex for the property at 420 First
Street at a meeting held on August 4, 2004.
RECOMMENDATION
The Public Works-Engineering Staff recommends that the Mayor and City Commission approve
this Intent to Annex request for the Metheralls at 420 First Street and direct the Mayor and City
Clerk to execute the Annexation Agreement and direct staff to proceed with the process to
provide the Metheralls with City water service.

STAFF REPORT
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
FROM: David A. Wheeler,P.E.04(4
Director of Public Works
DATE: August 9, 2004
RE: Arild and Susan Johansen
122 11th Street
Intent to Annex for Water Service
ISSUE
Staff requests that the Mayor and City Commission approve and execute the Intent to Annex
Agreement with Arild and Susan Johansen to provide water service to their property.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Johansens, who own property at 122 11th Avenue, approached the City for utility service.
The property currently is undeveloped and has no water service. Attached please find a copy of
the Intent to Annex agreement for the Johansens. The property is currently within
unincorporated Orange County and is not contiguous to the City Limits. However the property is
inside the City's JPA boundary, Water & Sewer Territorial Boundary, and City Limits. See
attached map from City's GIS Department. Therefore, this is just an Intent to Annex for Water
Service at this time.
There is a 12" water main along the north side of 11th Avenue that could be tapped for water
service. There are no service lines extended under the road in the area of their residence;
therefore a service line will be required for service. There are no sewer facilities in the area to
even consider sanitary sewer service. There is available capacity in the potable water system for
this one additional residential customer.
The City's requirement about annexation/intent to annex to be able to provide service and the
differences between resident service and non-resident service were discussed with the Johansens.
The City's fee requirements for an Intent to Annex application approval are provided below:
• Application Processing and Recording Fee of$100
• Water Impact Fee of$1,139.88 ($966 plus an 18%surcharge for non-residents)
• Connection fee of $500 plus the cost for directional drill install of service line under 11th
Street(cost to be determined after City Commission action)
• Water deposit of$60 (refundable after two years of prompt payments)
• Utility rates for water and/or sewer per the attached rate sheet (cost of service base rate plus
consumption charge times 18%surcharge for non-residents)
• The stormwater drainage and solid waste rates would not apply until the annexation process
is complete
Upon annexation, the utility rates would reduce to city resident charges. Also, should the
property become contiguous to the City Limits and the Johansens decide to not proceed with the
annexation of their property, the City has the right to discontinue service until such time as
annexation is completed.
The procedure for obtaining water service was discussed with the Johansens:
Staff review the intent to annex application
Submission to the DRC Committee for action
If approved by DRC the application would be presented to the City Commission for action
With approval of the City Commission the Johansens would fill out a customer application and
pay the aforementioned fees
City would issue a work order for the service line and meter installation,which would take
approximately two weeks to schedule the work
The Johansens were advised that the City only provides service to the edge of the road right-of-
way, the property line at the street. They will need to hire a plumber to do all necessary work
from the house out to the street, which will require a permit from the Orange County Building
Department. They will need to disconnect their well from the house connection; however they
are encouraged to use their well for irrigation purposes. They will also be required to purchase
and install a backflow prevention device to be installed on their side of the water meter, which
will be inspected by Ocoee's backflow technician. The yearly inspection and maintenance of
that backflow preventer is the Johansen's responsibility and must be documented to the City
every year.
The Development Review Committee approved the Intent to Annex for the property at 11th
Street at a meeting held on August 4, 2004.
RECOMMENDATION
The Public Works-Engineering Staff recommends that the Mayor and City Commission approve
of this Intent to Annex request for Mr. And Mrs. Johansen at 122 11 Street and direct the
Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Annexation Agreement and direct staff to proceed with the
process to provide the Johansens with City water service.

A. The Owner and the City acknowledge and agree that this Agreement constitutes
a petition for the voluntary annexation of the Property pursuant to Section 171.044, Florida

STAFF REPORT
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
FROM: David A. Wheeler,P.E. /Q
Director of Public Works
DATE: August 9, 2004
RE: Jeffery and Jessica Cockcroft
1451 Clarcona-Ocoee Road
Intent to Annex for Water Service
ISSUE
Staff requests that the Mayor and City Commission approve and execute the Intent to Annex
Agreement with Jeffery and Jessica Cockcroft to provide water service to their property.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Cockcrofts, who reside at 1451 Clarcona-Ocoee Road, approached the City for utility
service. The property currently has a well for water service. Attached please find a copy of the
Intent to Annex agreement for the Cockcrofts. The property is currently within unincorporated
Orange County and is not contiguous to the City Limits. However the property is inside the
City's JPA boundary, Water & Sewer Territorial Boundary, and City Limits. See attached map
from City's GIS Department. Therefore, this is just an Intent to Annex for Water Service at this
time.
There is a 12" water main along the west side of Clarcona-Ocoee Road that could be tapped for
water service. There are no service lines extended under the road in the area of their residence;
therefore a service line will be required for service. There are no sewer facilities in the area to
even consider sanitary sewer service. There is available capacity in the potable water system for
this one additional residential customer.
The City's requirement about annexation/intent to annex to be able to provide service and the
differences between resident service and non-resident service were discussed with the
Cockcrofts. The City's fee requirements for an Intent to Annex application approval are
provided below:
• Application Processing and Recording Fee of$100
• Water Impact Fee of$1,139.88 ($966 plus an 18% surcharge for non-residents)
• Connection fee of $500 plus the cost for directional drill install of service line under
Clarcona-Ocoee Road(cost to be determined after City Commission action)
• Water deposit of$60 (refundable after two years of prompt payments)
• Utility rates for water and/or sewer per the attached rate sheet (cost of service base rate plus
consumption charge times 18%surcharge for non-residents)
• The stormwater drainage and solid waste rates would not apply until the annexation process
is complete
Upon annexation, the utility rates would reduce to city resident charges. Also, should the
property become contiguous to the City Limits and the Cockcrofts decide to not proceed with the
annexation of their property, the City has the right to discontinue service until such time as
annexation is completed.
The procedure for obtaining water service was discussed with the Cockcrofts:
Staff review the intent to annex application
Submission to the DRC Committee for action
If approved by DRC the application would be presented to the City Commission for action
With approval of the City Commission, the Cockcrofts would fill out a customer application and
pay the aforementioned fees
City would issue a work order for the service line and meter installation, which would take
approximately two weeks to schedule the work
The Cockcrofts was advised that the City only provides service to the edge of the road right-of-
way, the property line at the street. They will need to hire a plumber to do all necessary work
from the house out to the street, which will require a permit from the Orange County Building
Department. They will need to disconnect their well from the house connection; however they
are encouraged to use their well for irrigation purposes. They will also be required to purchase
and install a backflow prevention device to be installed on their side of the water meter, which
will be inspected by Ocoee's backflow technician. The yearly inspection and maintenance of
that backflow preventer is the Cockcrofts's responsibility and must be documented to the City
every year.
The Development Review Committee approved the Intent to Annex for the property at 1451
Clarcona-Ocoee Road at a meeting held on August 4, 2004.
RECOMMENDATION
The Public Works-Engineering Staff recommends that the Mayor and City Commission approve
of this Intent to Annex request for the Cockcrofts at 1451 Clarcona-Ocoee Road and direct the
Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Annexation Agreement and direct staff to proceed with the
process to provide the Cockcrofts with City water service.

a petition for the voluntary annexation of the Property pursuant to Section 171.044, Florida
Statutes. The Owner and the City further acknowledge and agree that the petition cannot be
processed at this time because the Property does not meet the statutory requirements for
voluntary annexation under the provisions of Section 171.044, Florida Statutes.
B. The City shall have the right, but not the obligation, to process the petition;
provided, however, that the petition shall not be processed by the City unless and until a
determination is made by the City, in its sole and absolute discretion, that the Property meets
the statutory requirements for voluntary annexation under the provisions of Section 171.044,
Florida Statutes, or such other provisions of the Florida Statutes as may then be applicable to
voluntary annexations. Following such determination by the City and upon the written request
of the City, the Owner shall within thirty (30) days of receipt of such written request from the
City (i) execute all applications and documents required by the City at the time of such request
in order to process the Owner's petition for voluntary annexation including, but not limited to,

Plan and the Annexation and Initial Zoning Hold Harmless Agreement; (ii) pay all applicable
fees, costs and expenses associated with the petition for voluntary annexation as required by
the City; and (iii) provide all documentation required by Florida law, including, but not
limited to, Section 177.044, Florida Statutes, for the voluntary annexation of the Property
including, but not limited to, a metes and bounds legal description of the Property. Following
the Owner's compliance with the foregoing, the City shall have the right, but not the
006.188179.1
-2-
obligation, to process this petition for voluntary annexation without further action and/or
request of the Owner.
C. In the event the City determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that the
requested annexation is inconsistent with the Ocoee Comprehensive Plan, the Owner must
apply for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment and pay the applicable development review fees
in connection therewith. In the event the City determines, in its sole and absolute discretion,
that a developer agreement is required in connection with the annexation, then the Owner must
pay the applicable development review fees in connection therewith. The Owner shall pay
such additional development review fees as may be required by the Code of the City of Ocoee
in effect at the time of annexation.
D. The Owner acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement does not in any way
obligate or require the City to annex the Property or grant to the Owner any particular zoning
which may be requested in connection with such annexation.
E. The Owner acknowledges and agrees that any zoning granted to the Owner in
connection with the Property shall be consistent with the terms and conditions of the Joint
Planning Agreement as it may be amended from time to time.
SECTION 3. Water Service.
A. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in this Agreement, the
City agrees to provide water service to the Property upon compliance by the Owner with all
applicable regulations of the City and the payment all fees, costs and expenses associated
therewith. The Owner shall execute all developer agreements for water as required by the
City in connection with the provision of water service to the Property.
B. This Agreement does not in any way reserve any water capacity or guarantee
the availability thereof.
C. The Owner acknowledges and agrees that for so long as the Property is not
located within the corporate limits of the City, the monthly rates and charges for water service
as established by the City from time to time shall be charged at the same rate charged to
consumers within the corporate limits of the City plus a surcharge equal to twenty percent
(20%) of such monthly rates and charges for water service or such other surcharge as the City
may impose from time to time. The Owner agrees to pay all such charges for water service
and surcharges as required by the City.
D. The Owner acknowledges and agrees that the Property is not located in the
corporate limits of the City and that water capital charges as established by the City from time
to time shall be charged at the same rate to consumers within the corporate limits of the City
plus a surcharge equal to nineteen percent (19%) of such water capital charges or such other
charges as the City may impose from time to time. The Owner agrees to pay all water capital
charges and surcharges as required by the City.
006.188179.1

STAFF REPORT
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
FROM: David A. Wheeler,P.E. 44,4 M/
Director of Public Works
DATE: August 9, 2004
RE: Manuel Novoa
1527 Clarcona-Ocoee Road
Intent to Annex for Water Service
ISSUE
Staff requests that the Mayor and City Commission approve and execute the Intent to Annex
Agreement with Manuel Novoa to provide water service to their property.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
Mr. Novoa, who resides at 1527 Clarcona-Ocoee Road, approached the City for utility service.
The property currently has a well for water service. Attached please find a copy of the Intent to
Annex agreement for Mr. Novoa. The property is currently within unincorporated Orange
County and is not contiguous to the City Limits. However the property is inside the City's JPA
boundary, Water & Sewer Territorial Boundary, and City Limits. See attached map from City's
GIS Department. Therefore,this is just an Intent to Annex for Water Service at this time.
There is a 12" water main along the west side of Clarcona-Ocoee Road that could be tapped for
water service. There are no service lines extended under the road in the area of this residence;
therefore a service line will be required for service. There are no sewer facilities in the area to
even consider sanitary sewer service. There is available capacity in the potable water system for
this one additional residential customer.
The City's requirement about annexation/intent to annex to be able to provide service and the
differences between resident service and non-resident service were discussed with Mr. Novoa.
The City's fee requirements for an Intent to Annex application approval are provided below:
• Application Processing and Recording Fee of$100
• Water Impact Fee of$1,139.88 ($966 plus an 18%surcharge for non-residents)
• Connection fee of $500 plus the cost for directional drill install of service line under
Clarcona-Ocoee Road(cost to be determined after City Commission action)
• Water deposit of$60 (refundable after two years of prompt payments)
• Utility rates for water and/or sewer per the attached rate sheet (cost of service base rate plus
consumption charge times 18% surcharge for non-residents)
• The stormwater drainage and solid waste rates would not apply until the annexation process
is complete
Upon annexation, the utility rates would reduce to city resident charges. Also, should the
property become contiguous to the City Limits and Mr. Novoa decides to not proceed with the
annexation of his property, the City has the right to discontinue service until such time as
annexation is completed.
The procedure for obtaining water service was discussed with Mr.Novoa:
Staff review the intent to annex application
Submission to the DRC Committee for action
If approved by DRC the application would be presented to the City Commission for action
With approval of the City Commission,Mr. Novoa would fill out a customer application and pay
the aforementioned fees
City would issue a work order for the service line and meter installation, which would take
approximately two weeks to schedule the work
Mr. Novoa was advised that the City only provides service to the edge of the road right-of-way,
the property line at the street. He will need to hire a plumber to do all necessary work from the
house out to the street, which will require a permit from the Orange County Building
Department. He will need to disconnect his well from the house connection; however he is
encouraged to use your well for irrigation purposes. He will also be required to purchase and
install a backflow prevention device to be installed on his side of the water meter, which will be
inspected by Ocoee's backflow technician. The yearly inspection and maintenance of that
backflow preventer is Mr. Novoa's responsibility and must be documented to the City every
year.
The Development Review Committee approved the Intent to Annex for the property at 1527
Clarcona-Ocoee Road at a meeting held on August 4, 2004.
RECOMMENDATION
The Public Works-Engineering Staff recommends that the Mayor and City Commission approve
of this Intent to Annex request for Mr. Novoa at 1527 Clarcona-Ocoee Road and direct the
Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Annexation Agreement and direct staff to proceed with the
process to provide Mr. Novoa with City water service.
