At the request of the City Manager, the City Commission voted 4-1 to continue the public hearing in order to allow the Planning and Zoning Commission an opportunity to reconsider the proposed amendment, if they so desired. The proposed JPA amendment was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission again on October 27, 1999. The City Manager and the City Attorney gave a detailed explanation of the history of the JPA Agreement, describing why the City and County entered into the Agreement and what it does and does not do regarding planning issues. Mayor Vandergrift discussed his perspective regarding the JPA Agreement and his belief that it should be more than an annexation tool. Rather, it should reflect an attitude of cooperation for efficient growth, helping to avoid urban sprawl. The Mayor emphasized his opinion that these additional planning issues should be added to the Amendment before it is signed. After a brief discussion, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 6-1 to reconsider the proposed JPA Amendment. The Commission then voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the JPA Amendment in accordance with the staff recommendation, and to rescind its previous action which recommended denial of the Amendment.

BACKGROUND: As development continues to occur in the northeast sector of the community, a number of property owners currently situated outside the existing WA Boundary have expressed the desire to annex into the City. These properties generally correspond to our utility service area boundaries or are logical extensions to eliminate enclaves. Conversely, there are a number of areas within the JPA that have fully developed within the County and utilize their utilities. Accordingly, some of these areas are proposed to be deleted from the JPA. Changes to the JPA Land Use Map to reflect these additions and deletions are also proposed as well as a few minor clean-up land use changes. DISCUSSION: The proposed changes are threefold. First, several pocket areas located on the northeastern boundary of the JPA, within the Clarcona Rural Settlement, are proposed to be added to the JPA (see attached map). Secondly, several developed subdivisions (such as Magnolia Springs and Rose Hill) in the southeast portion of the JPA are proposed to be deleted from the agreement. These latter areas are within the County's water and sewer territory and are unlikely to annex in the near future. Lastly, the land uses for certain properties internal to the JPA are being changed to more accurately reflect actual or proposed uses and zoning (see attached map). An Industrial category is also being included to reflect existing industrial uses. powF Protect Ocoee's Water Resources L'✓ Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners October 13, 1999 Page 2 A community meeting on these proposed changes was held on Monday, July 12, 1999, at the Evans Ninth Grade Center. Comments from the neighborhood meeting and letters from residents have been supportive of the proposed changes, with one exception. Several property owners on Hackney Prairie Road, whose properties were originally proposed to be included into the JPA, are opposed to the amendment if their properties are included. One property owner of a large tract of land would like to be included in the JPA. However, the ultimate annexation of that property owner's tract without the other properties along Hackney Prairie Road would create an enclave. The Hackney Prairie area was not included in the JPA amendment as approved by the Orange County Commission and City of Ocoee staff are not recommending that the Hackney Prairie area be included into the JPA. ORANGE COUNTY COMMISSION MEETING AND RECOMMENDATION: On September 28, 1999, the Orange County Commission held a public hearing regarding the proposed Third Amendment to Ocoee-Orange County Joint Planning Area Agreement. During the hearing, some of the property owners along Hackney Prairie Road spoke indicating that they did not want their properties included in the JPA amendment. They were assured by the County staff that their properties were no longer included in the proposed JPA amendment. Mayor Vandergrift also spoke during the hearing, expressing his opinions on the subject of a "Joint Planning Area". He described several cases where new development is occurring in County enclaves within the City and along the edges of the City limits which is being approved by the County to use wells and septic systems and is not coordinated with the City. He also expressed many concerns with the current Joint Planning Area agreement, indicating that he felt there should be many other changes in addition to those presented in the proposed JPA amendment. He suggested that these additional changes should be made to the JPA amendment before it is considered. The County Commission discussed the Mayor's concerns and the idea of continuing the hearing to allow more work on the agreement. However, the Chairman suggested that if the County Commissioners were happy with the proposed amendment as presented, they should vote on it at that time. The County Attorney indicated that if, after reviewing the proposed amendment, the City wanted to make changes, then it would have to come back to the County Commission for additional review. After a brief discussion on this issue, the County Commission voted unanimously to approve the proposed JPA amendment as presented by staff. PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MEETING AND RECOMMENDATION: On September 29, 1999, the Ocoee Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing regarding the proposed Third Amendment to Ocoee-Orange County Joint Planning Area Agreement. During the hearing, Mayor Vandergrift made a lengthy presentation expressing the same concerns he had presented to the County Commission, Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners October 13, 1999 Page 3 suggesting that additional changes should be made to the JPA amendment before it is considered. In response to the Mayor's discussion, the staff indicated that most of the issues presented by the Mayor were considered when the negotiations began on this proposed JPA amendment. However, it was decided that the best approach in dealing with these complex issues was to address them in stages, beginning with changing the boundaries of the JPA. The issues related to enclaves and utilities would be addressed in later stages: During its discussion, members of the Planning and Zoning Commission agreed that more work needs to be done in planning for enclaves and areas close to the City limits. When the discussion was finished, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5-0-1 to recommend denial of this proposed JPA amendment, with an additional recommendation that the staff continue working on the amendment to include additional changes. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff respectfully recommends that the Mayor and City Commissioners approve the Third Amendment to the JPA Agreement as presented, providing for amendments to the JPA Boundary and WA Land Use Map, consistent with the Board of County Commissioners action.

This agreement sets forth logical areas that could be annexed into the City and appropri- ate land used for annexed parcels.The proposed amendments to the agreement are threefold, first certain properties are proposed to be added to the JPA and second, other properties are proposed to be deleted from the JPA (see map below). Lastly, there are proposed changes to the joint land use map for certain properties already in the JPA, to reflect existing uses or zoning. These proposed changes do not necessarily require annexation. The City is not recommending that the properties located on Hackney Prairie Road be included into the JPA at this time.

Rosenthal, Esq., City Attorney DATE: October 29, 1999 RE: Proposed Third Amendment to Joint Planning Area Agreement For your information, attached hereto is an outline of the comments which I made to the Planning and Zoning Commission on October 27 regarding the Joint Planning Area Agreement. Since the Mayor and all of the City Commissioners were present at the meeting, this outline is being distributed in order to shorten my presentation at the City Commission meeting regarding this subject_ The Planing and Zoning Commission Agenda included the "Reconsideration of the Third Amendment". At the conclusion of the meeting and prior to the vote, Mayor Vandergrift questioned whether proper procedures were followed since no motion to reconsider was presented at the meeting. For the reasons discussed below, it is my opinion that the Planning and Zoning Commission followed correct procedures and complied with Robert's Rules of Order in connection with this matter. The Planning and Zoning Commission initially considered the Third Amendment at an advertised public hearing on September 29, 1999. At that time, they recommended that the City Commission disapprove the proposed Third Amendment. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation came before the City Commission at an advertised public hearing on October 19, 1999. At that time, the City Manager recommended that the public hearing be continued so that he could bring this matter back to the Planning and Zoning Commission for reconsideration. The City Commission voted to continue the public hearing with the understanding that the matter would be brought back to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Had the City Commission declined the City Manager's request, then there would not have been an opportunity for this matter to go back to the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Commission action at the October 19 meeting would have precluded any further consideration by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Following the City Commission continuance, the Third Amendment was again placed on the Planning and Zoning Commission Agenda which gave public notice to the Planning and Zoning Commission and the public that this matter would again be 006.158876.1 OCT-29-99 15: 13 FROM:FOLEY & LARDNER ID=4076461743 PACE 3/6 "reconsidered". The JPA Agreement does not require a public hearing before the Planning and Zoning Commission. A Motion to Reconsider was not presented and would not have been the appropriate under Robert's Rules of Order since a Motion to Reconsider can only be made at the meeting during which the vote to be reconsidered was taken. Further, a Motion to Reconsider can only be made by a member voting on the prevailing side. This is contrasted with a "Motion to Rescind or Amend Something Previously Adopted" which can be made at a subsequent meeting by motion of any member regardless of how that member voted on the original question. Following the presentations and discussion, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted by a vote in excess of two-thirds (2/3) to bring the Third Amendment back up fora new vote. In hindsight, it would have been preferable for the initial vote to be a Motion to Rescind the previous action (again, which would have been in order at the meeting and which could be made by any member). Following the decision to bring the matter back up for a vote, the Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously voted to rescind its prior recommendation and to recommend that the City Commission approve the Third Amendment. A Motion to Rescind was in order because the City Commission had not acted on the previous recommendation. Consistent with Robert's Rules of Order, this vote was in order and had the effect of rescinding the prior action and changing the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission. As a result, the only Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation standing and being presented to the City Commission on November 2°a is the unanimous recommendation for approval. For your information, attached is a copy of Section 34 of the Robert's Rules of Order which addresses Motions to Rescind and distinguishes them from Motions to Reconsider. PER/jh Enclosure cc: Planning and Zoning Commission Members 006.158876.1 -2- OVERVIEW JOINT PLANNING AREA AGREEMENT *PURPOSE OF JPA: *To settle litigation brought by County challenging annexations by City. Absent the settlement, it was possible that the annexation ordinances would be voided. These lands included most of Ocoee Crossings on the agenda tonight. *If County had not sued, there would NOT be a JPA. Neither County nor City was pursuing a JPA. *WA and amendments thereto must be looked at in the context of what led to the initial document in order to have realistic and understandable expectations. *GOAL OF CITY: *The goal of the City was to annex land approved by the City Commission and defeat the County lawsuit, . Settlement was pursued because this goal would otherwise be unsuccessful, at least in part. Landowners, not the City,were funding the litigation. *When the JPA developed as a settlement option, the City unsuccessfully explored true "joint planning". *Annexation of enclaves and expansion of the utility territorial areas was not the major focus. WHAT THE JPA IS NOT: *The WA is not a joint planning area agreement. The County was insistent and the WA provides that it gives the City no control or say over enclaves or WA lands in unincorporated Orange County. *The IPA is not a sewer and water territorial agreement and did not modify those agreements. However, a separate agreement made the water and sewer boundaries the same and eliminated conflicts. * The JPA did not give the County any control over the lands which were the subject of the lawsuit or lands previously annexed into the City. *The WA essentially didn't obligate the County to do anything except drop the lawsuit and not fight future annexations within the WA Territory. The WA expressly says that the JPA I.and Use Map does not apply to the County and does not modify the County comp plan future land use map. 006/58714/ bI/ZI 3OVd £b6I6b94017'QI d3NQ2IV1 S A31O3'WOd3 8b'£I 66-6Z-ZZ)O *WHAT THE JPA 6.CHIEVED FOR THE LANDOWNERS: *It got their land annexed. *It got a commitment from the County to provided sewer and water to annexed lands which were not in the City sewer and water territory. *WHAT THE CI'T'Y'ACHIEVED : THE WA: *It settled the County's lawsuit and got most of the lands annexed. *It established a geographic framework for future annexations with a commitment from the County that the annexations would not be challenged. This framework was based on the projections as to the areas that could realistically be provided urban services by the City over the 10 year term. *It allowed the City to annex and zone lands in advance of a comprehensive plan amendment –something that few cities can do—so long as the City was consistent with an agreed upon WA Land Use Map. *It provided a mechanism for assuring that lands in the City, but outside of the City sewer and water territorial area, would be served by the County sewer and water. *It required notice to the City of County comp plan amendments and rezonings within the WA and a vehicle to make non-binding comments part of the record. It left with the County the right to ignore the City's comments. *It authorized the City to improve Maguire Road (a county road) and provided a framework for the City to improve other County roads with the JPA. *The WA provided a dispute resolution procedure with respect to certain limited subjects. *WHAT DID THE CITY GIVE Ti?? *The City agreed to restrict the area within it would annex for a period of 10 years — to February 11, 2004 --- unless the County agreed to an amendment to allow more land to be • annexed. *The City agreed that the City comp plan designations would be consistent with the JPA Land Use Map unless the County agreed to a change. *The City agreed not to annex into the Gotha and Clarcona Rural Settlements. 006.158714.1 -2- VI/EI 2-bI/EI 30Vd E bL I8b9L@t' Q I e'13NOdV1 8 A31O3'NOZI3 6b o E I 66-6E-10O *DID THE JPA ACCOMPLISH ITS OBJECTIVES? *It settled the lawsuit. *Ocoee has subsequently annexed lands without challenge by the County. *The County has been cooperative when individual landowners have sought changes to the JPA land use designations or sought to be included in the IPA so that they could annex into the City. 006.~58714.1 -3- bI/bZ 30Vd E V4I8b9G0b'Q I 2I3NQ2IV I 'S A3-IOd°WO?13 6b'E I 66-6Z-Z0O iiimmo 533. , §34.

(See below for actions that cannot be rescinded or amended.) All of the subsidiary motions can be applied to the motions to Rescind and to Amend Some- thing Previously Adopted. 3. Are out of order when another has the floor; but pre- vious notice of intent to offer one of these motions at the next meeting can be given after another member has been assigned the floor, provided that he has not begun to speak. 4. Must be seconded. 5. Are debatable; debate can go into the merits of the question which it is proposed to rescind or amend. 6. Are amendable, by the processes of primary and second- ary amendment in any of the forms discussed in 12, as applicable to the particular case. Thus, a motion to Rescind can be amended, for example, to become a motion to strike out only a part of what it was proposed to rescind. But if a motion to Rescind or to Amend { Something Previously Adopted is amended so that the change proposed by the amended motion then exceeds the scope of a previous notice that was given, the effect of the previous notice is destroyed and the motion can no longer be adopted by a majority vote (see Standard Characteristic 7).When these motions require previous notice (as in the case of a motion to rescind or amend a provision of the bylaws or a special rule of order), such a motion cannot be amended so as to make the pro- posed change greater than that for which notice has been given. 7. In an assembly, except when applied to a constitution, bylaws, or special rules of order, require (a) a two- thirds vote, or (b) a majority vote when notice of intent a x , RF,SCIND OR AMEND (MAIN) 301 47 3 . to make the motion, stating the complete substance of 1 the proposed change, has been given at the previous E meeting or in the call of the present meeting, or (c) a a vote of a majority of the entire membership—which- ever is most practical to obtain. In a committee, require i `} a two-thirds vote unless all committee members who 11 ': voted for the motion to be rescinded or amended are ' present or have received ample notice, in which caset these motions require a majority vote. A motion to rescind or amend provisions of a constitution or bylaws is subject to the requirements for amendment as con- � . tamed in the constitution or bylaws (see 55, 56). If the ` ;r bylaws or governing instrument contains no provision relating to amendment, a motion to rescind or amend applied to a constitution or to bylaws is subject to the i same voting requirement as to rescind or amend special rules of order—that is, it requires previous notice as 3 R , described above and a two-thirds vote, or, without notice, a vote of a majorityof the entire membership. _ ' 8. A negative vote on these motions can be reconsidered, ii tl but not an affirmative vote. c, Further Rules and Explanation RIGHT OF ANY MEMBER TO MAKE THE MOTIONS, it WITHOUT TIME LIMIT. In contrast to the case of the il motion to Reconsider, there is no time limit on making `} these motions after the adoption of the measure to which they are applied, and they can be moved by any member, regardless of how he voted on the original question.When previous notice has been given, it is usual to wait for the i F member who gave notice of these motions to move them; but if he does not, any member can do so. i f I i 302 RULES OF ORDER §34, - CONDITIONS DETERMINING TYPE OF VOTE TO BE SOUGHT. The type of vote (two thirds, or a majority `; when previous notice has been given, or a majorityof theentire membership) to be sought for adopting one of th se g J motions will depend on conditions. Ordinarily it is desira- ' ble to give previous notice if there is a possibility of serious disagreement. The two-thirds vote without previous no- i tice may be used for matters requiring emergency action. In many organizations, a majority of the entire member. ` ship may never be obtainable at a meeting; but this may become the best method in a convention of delegates,or in a small board. 1 Li ; ACTIONS THAT CANNOT BE RESCINDED OR AMENDED. The motions to Rescind and to Amend Something Previously Adopted are not in order under the following circumstances: a) When it has previously been moved to reconsider the i vote on the main motion, and the question can be i N reached by calling up the motion to Reconsider (36). b) When something has been done, as a result of the vote w i on the main motion,that it is impossible to undo. (The unexecuted part of an order, however, can be rescinded or amended.) c) When the case is in the nature of a contract, and the t other party has been informed of the vote. j t d) When a resignation has been acted upon, or a person r has been elected to or expelled from membership or r office, and the person was present or has been officially e notified of the action. on The only y wa y to reverse an f G ` expulsion is to follow whateverp rocedure is prescribed s by the bylaws for admission or reinstatement. For the case of an election, see p. 657 regarding removal of a; a person from office.) a i i
