Friel,AICP, Capital Projects/Transportation Planner i THROUGH: Russell B. Wagner, AICP, Director of Planning ] SUBJECT: Annual Concurrency Assessment of Infrastructure and Services ISSUE: Should the Mayor and City Commissioners direct staff to prepare a Resolution adopting the attached annual Concurrency Assessment of Infrastructure and Services? BACKGROUND: Florida law requires that municipalities monitor certain facilities and services for concurrency purposes, including traffic circulation, sanitary sewer, potable water, solid waste, stormwater drainage, and recreation. All facilities and services must be available either concurrent with the impacts of new development, or as outlined in Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, as implemented under Rule 9J-5, F.A.C. Data and information for this report has been compiled with assistance from Jim Shira, P.E., City Engineer/Utilities Director, Bob Smith, Director of Public Works, Bruce Nordquist, Director of Recreation, Abra Home, Senior Planner, Lisa Strickland, Budget Technician, and Judy Henry, Public Works Secretary. DISCUSSION: Attached is the annual Concurrency Assessment of Infrastructure and Services. This assessment has been completed to comply with Article IX of the Land Development Code, which requires that specific criteria be reviewed and inventories be reported at least once a year. In conjunction with this concurrency assessment, an Infrastructure Deficiencies Map must also be adopted before each new fiscal year. Below is a summary of the findings: Traffic Circulation: The most recent Comprehensive Plan Amendment adopted by Ocoee changed the Level of Service (LOS) used for monitoring some state and county roads from LOS "D" to LOS "E". All City roads c:\aII_data\bfpdfile\correspondence\staffreports\98-99con staff rpt.doc The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners September 28, 1998 Page 2 continue to be held to a LOS "D". Table 1 of the attached EXHIBIT "A" lists each of the road segments monitored by the City's concurrency system as well as the LOS, volume, and capacity data for those road segments. The roadways which are shaded in Table 1 are non-CMS roadways that may need to be monitored for concurrency in the future. It is believed that these roadways will become increasingly important in Ocoee's future traffic circulation needs. For this reason, they are being included as potential CMS roadways in the most recent monitoring program. Currently, there are eight roadway segments, monitored in the Ocoee CMS, that are over 100 percent of capacity based on existing plus reserved volumes. These segments include: • Maguire Road from Marshall Farms Road to Story Road ( 104%) • Old Winter Garden Road from Professional Parkway to Blackwood Avenue (106%) • Old Winter Garden Road from Blackwood Avenue to Hemple Avenue (100%) • State Road 50 from 907 Street to Wofford Road (109%) • State Road 50 from Wofford Road to Marshall Farms Road ( 105%) • State Road 50 from Marshall Farms Road to Maguire Road (101%) • State Road 50 from Maguire Road to Old Winter Garden Road ( 113% ) • State Road 50 from Blackwood Avenue to Clarke Road (103%) These segments will be monitored closely and if any of them (or any other segment) reaches 115 percent, the City Commission will be notified. If a roadway segment reaches 115%, it must be placed on the Infrastructure Deficiencies Map and development may not be approved which affects that roadway segment unless a project is vested, has a valid FCC or TCRC, or if an alternative study (FDOT approved) proves the segment would still operate at acceptable FDOT standards. An example of this is Silver Star Road from Clarke Road to Good Homes Road which in previous years was over 115 percent of capacity. A study was done using ART PLAN, a computer model developed by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). This model takes into consideration local data for each roadway segment and intersection and provides a more accurate LOS estimate for those roadway segments. Based on that study, the City adjusted the maximum allowable capacity for Silver Star Road (for the segments from Bluford Avenue to Good Homes Road) from 16,600 vehicles per day to 21,243 vehicles per day. The roadway which has shown the largest percentage increase in traffic from 1997 to 1998 was Clarke Road from Hackney-Prairie Road to Clarcona-Ocoee Road. The increase in traffic volumes was 287 percent, or almost 5,000 daily trips. This increase is a result of the considerable residential construction that has occurred along Clarke Road. Other roads which showed significant increases in volumes were Maguire Road, Story Road and White Road. c:\all data\bfpdfile\correspondence\staffreports\98-99con staff rpt.doc The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners September 28, 1998 Page 3 The traffic along State Road 50, from 9th Street to Good Homes Road, increased an average of about five percent over last year's counts. The increase in traffic on this road was considerably less than in years past. ( 5 percent vs. 20 percent ) The relative "slow down" in traffic growth is most likely attributable to less "new" commercial growth when compared to the opening of the West Oaks Mall and more importantly, as State Road 50 becomes more congested, motorists will find alternative routes to travel east/west. This would explain the relatively large increase in traffic along Story Road and White Road. The City should expect an increase in traffic on State Road 50 as well as Old Winter Garden Road, Story Road and White Road once the new commercial businesses such as, Lowe's, Sam's, Don Pablo's, Rio Bravo and Dorcher Plaza among others become established. Sanitary Sewer: There are no deficiencies with regard to the wastewater system. Two factors are involved in measuring capacity of the system: (1)treatment, and (2) effluent disposal. With a system capable of treating 3 million gallons per day, the City has more than half that capacity available for future growth, even after factoring in reserved capacity. The limiting factor is the effluent disposal capacity. The City is currently permitted by the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to treat 1.10 million gallons per day because of limitations on disposing of the effluent. Although the current 1.112 MGD Annual Average Daily Flow ( AADF) through the plant exceeds the existing effluent disposal permit limitation of 1.1 MGD AADF, we are not under threat of enforcement action by any regulatory agencies, since we have permit applications in to various agencies for expansion of our effluent reuse and disposal systems. The agencies are in the process of reviewing those applications, and we expect to be issued new permits within the next few months. These new permits will allow us to cooperate with the City of Winter Garden to operate our wastewater treatment plants to make the most efficient use of reclaimed water. Work is also continuing on implementing phases I - IV of the reclaimed water system. When combined, the disposal capacity of phases I through IV of the currently envisioned system would be approximately 3.5 MGD AADF. Potable Water: Ocoee's current water customers use an average of 3.766 MGD. In an effort to reduce potable water consumption, the City is putting in place a reuse system to take advantage of the reclaimed water from the wastewater treatment plant. Currently, this water is used at the Forest Lake Golf Course. The reuse lines installed along Clarke Road will allow both residential and commercial customers to take advantage of reclaimed water to use for irrigation. This reclaimed water may be available to some customers by late 1998. In an effort to keep potable water use in line with state-wide standards, the City has also implemented a new rate structure for water usage. The new structure means people will see an increase in the rate they are charged for water once they go beyond the standard set for an equivalent residential unit. It is anticipated that this structure will reduce water demand. Unfortunately, the very dry conditions experienced in Central Florida during the spring and early summer months forced many customers to use more water than would be expected during normal weather conditions. A complete assessment of the new rate structure should be possible during the next annual review. c:\all data\bfpdfile\correspondence\staffreports\98-99con staff rpt.doc The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners September 28, 1998 Page 4 Solid Waste: The City continues to fall below the allotted amount of solid waste collected from residential customers. Class I garbage and yard waste (grass clippings, etc.) together total about 2.90 pounds per person per day which is down from last year's figures (3.29 pounds per person per day). The adopted level of service is six (6) pounds per person per day. This past year the City collected an average of 5.29 pounds of recyclables per household per week. This is down slightly from last year's 5.80 pounds. An emphasis on residential recycling may help to reduce the amount of Class garbage taken to the landfill by an even greater margin. Stormwater Drainage: All new development must meet City and state requirements for stormwater drainage. The existing drainage conditions are being analyzed basin by basin in order to determine necessary improvements and maintenance schedules. As funds permit, studies are continuing to be conducted and construction of new infrastructure or repairs of existing facilities has been started. The Phase I Group I drainage improvement projects are now complete. The Phase I Group II projects have gone to bid and are in various stages of completion. Additionally, specialized equipment ( climbing excavator) has also been purchased to handle the routine maintenance required to keep systems functioning properly. Recreation: Many improvements have been made to existing park facilities in the past few years. The new recreational complex to be located on A.D. Mims Road is nearing completion of the design, with the first phase of the project planned to be completed by late 1998. Because the City monitors recreation for concurrency purposes by the amount of park land that is available for Ocoee residents, the addition of this park will improve the level of service for recreation. The property is on a lease arrangement from the Utilities Fund. Additionally, the City is working with land owners throughout the City to acquire additional park lands. RECOMMENDATION: Staff respectfully recommends that the Mayor and City Commissioners direct staff to prepare a Resolution to officially adopt the attached Concurrency Assessment of Infrastructure and Services and an accompanying Infrastructure Deficiencies Map. The Infrastructure Deficiencies Map will show no infrastructure deficiencies. Attachment c:\all_data\bfpdfile\correspondence\staffreports\98-99con staff rpt.doc EXHIBIT "A" INFRASTRUCTURE CAPACITIES AND LEVELS OF SERVICE INVENTORY FOR CONCURRENCY MANAGEMENT CITY OF OCOEE, FLORIDA The following inventories, in conjunction with the Infrastructure Deficiencies Map, shall be maintained by the Development Administrator to be used for the concurrency assessment of new development: I. TRAFFIC CIRCULATION A. Design capacity of the roadway network as defined by the current Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Generalized Level Of Service rij (LOS) Tables. Table 1 outlines the vehicle volumes and capacities of all of the roadway segments monitored by the City of Ocoee's Concurrency Management System (CMS). The shaded roadways in Table 1 are non-CMS roadways that may need to be monitored for concurrency in the future. It is believed that these roadways will become increasingly important in Ocoee's future traffic circulation needs. For this reason, they are being included as potential CMS roadways in the most recent monitoring program. The total capacity (vehicles per day) shown for all roadway segments is based on the adopted LOS as set in the Ocoee Comprehensive Plan. All of the monitored roadway segments have an adopted LOS D or LOS E. Identified below is a summarized version of FDOT's definitions of LOS A through LOS F: • LOS A - Primarily free flow of traffic; vehicles operate almost completely unimpeded. • LOS B - Reasonably free flow of traffic; vehicle movement is only slightly restricted. • LOS C -Vehicle speed still at or near free flow; vehicle movement is noticeably restricted. • LOS D - Speeds begin to decline slightly with increasing traffic; freedom to maneuver is noticeably limited. • LOS E - Speeds are noticeably reduced; operation is at capacity with little room to maneuver. • LOS F - Breakdown in vehicular flow; roadway is "gridlocked".

Although these roadway segments am included for information purposes only,they may need to be included in the CMS at some point in the future to monitor growth more electively. B. The existing level of service measured by the average annual number of trips per day on a roadway as provided by annual traffic counts performed by the City of Ocoee's consultants. If a roadway has reached the maximum capacity as defined by the FDOT Generalized LOS Tables, the applicant may provide a more detailed LOS analysis based on the current FDOT LOS Standards and Guidelines or the current FDOT Manual for Uniform Traffic Studies. The detailed LOS analysis may include the procedure described for a Speed and Delay Study. The volumes for existing daily traffic on the various road segments are shown on Table 1 under the heading Existing Daily Volumes (vehicles per day). These volumes were established by 24 hour traffic counts collected by the City's transportation planning consultant in July and August of 1998. Comparing this existing count data with the Total Allowable Capacity, only five segments have existing counts that exceed the FDOT generalized LOS capacity. The five segments are listed below: • Maguire Road from Marshall Farms Road to Story Road • Old Winter Garden Road from Professional Parkway to Blackwood Avenue • State Road 50 from 9th Street to Wofford Road • State Road 50 from Wofford Road to Marshall Farms Road • State Road 50 from Maguire Road to Old Winter Garden Road Because of the margin of error involved in counting daily traffic, the State actually allows cities to "cap" the daily volumes higher than the roadway capacity established for the adopted LOS. It is for this reason the City's concurrency management system does not place a road segment on the Infrastructure Deficiencies Map until it reaches 115 percent of the LOS of that particular roadway segment. (See Paragraph F below for a discussion of capacities of roadway segments after reserved trips are added to existing trips.) C. The adopted LOS standards (as defined by the current FDOT Generalized Tables) for all roads classified under the FDOT's roadway functional classification system. The adopted LOS for all roadways is listed on Table 1. If a roadway or road segment has reached the maximum capacity for vehicles per day, an applicant may opt to submit an alternative method of study using the current FDOT LOS Standards and Guidelines. City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 4 D. The existing unallocated capacities or deficiencies of the roadway network. The available capacities under today's traffic conditions are obtained by subtracting existing daily volumes from the total roadway capacity. Other than the five segments listed under section B, all roads have capacity based on existing traffic ( before reserved trips are accounted for). E. The capacities reserved for those projects with a Final Certificate of Concurrency or Transportation Capacity Reservation Certificate. Trips are reserved for those projects with Final Certificates of Concurrency (FCC's) or Transportation Capacity Reservation Certificates (TCRC's). These projects with reserved trips are listed on Table 2. The total reserved trips for each road segment are also listed on Table 1. For those developments which are currently in the building stage, units which are already adding trips on the road (homes or businesses that are occupied) have been subtracted from the overall total trips that are concurrent (to avoid double counting). F. The projected capacities or deficiencies due to those projects with a Final Certificate of Concurrency or Transportation Capacity Reservation Certificate. The total trips generated by those projects with a FCC or a TCRC is recorded in the Reserved column of Table 1. When added to existing traffic, the combined amount must be less than 115 percent of the maximum allowable capacity for each road segment, or the segment is placed on the Infrastructure Deficiencies Map. Based on existing trips plus reserved trips, and using the 115 percent of maximum capacity, there are no roadway segments over capacity. There are eight segments over 100 percent of the maximum capacity for their respective LOS. These segments will be monitored closely and if any of them (or any other segment) reaches 115 percent, the City Commission will be notified. If a roadway segment reaches 115%, it must be placed on the Infrastructure Deficiencies Map and development may not be approved which affects that roadway segment unless a project is vested, has a valid FCC or TCRC, or if an alternative study (FDOT approved) proves the segment would still operate at acceptable FDOT standards.

The improvements to be made to the roadway network in the current fiscal year by any approved projects pursuant to previous development orders or permits and the impact of such improvements on the existing capacities or deficiencies. Remington Oaks, formerly known as Burnden Park, is in the process of constructing Hackney-Prairie Road from where it ends today to the project's property limits. This will make Hackney-Prairie a through- street from Apopka-Vineland Road to Clarke Road, although traffic patterns may not change dramatically since only the new portion of Hackney-Prairie Road will be paved. (The County portion will remain a dirt road, at least for the immediate future.) Brookestone, formerly known as Westport, is located on the west side of Maguire Road between Wesmere and the existing Tomyn Road. This project is currently in the permitting process. Once approved, the developer will build a new realigned Tomyn Road. This road will eventually tie into Windermere Road after the southern leg of the Western Beltway is built. This road will provide an additional east-west road south of State Road 50. H. The improvements to be made to the roadway network in the current fiscal year and the first three years of the Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan by the City of Ocoee, Orange County, the FDOT, or other public agency and the impact of such improvements on the existing capacities or deficiencies. City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 8 The first phase of the Maguire Road widening, from Roberson Road to State Road 50 is planned to be completed during the Year 2000/01. The timing on this project - which includes the bridge - depends to a large extent on the final design of the project and the final configuration of the intersection with State Road 50. If the preferred intersection configuration is built additional right-of-way may be required. The widening of Professional Parkway from Maguire Road to Old Winter Garden Road is also in the City's CIP. The timing of this project also depends on the City's preferred intersection alignment at the Professional Parkway / Old Winter garden Road intersection, as well as pay back agreements with the County and, to some extent, on the developer of the West End Professional Park. The four laning of this roadway, as well as the intersection improvements at Maguire Road and Old Winter Garden Road will create a parallel roadway to State Road 50. The parallel roadway allows motorist in southern Ocoee to travel east/west without using State Road 50. The extension of Maine Street as a four lane roadway from Blackwood Avenue to Bluford Avenue and then to Maguire Road will create another parallel roadway to State Road 50. This roadway will function similar to Professional Parkway by allowing motorists to travel east/west without using State Road 50. Orange County has three proposed projects in its current CIP which will have an impact on Ocoee's road system. The Apopka-Vineland Road project, which will realign Apopka-Vineland Road from its intersection with A.D. Mims Road south to Silver Star and then extend the road south to State Road 50, is planned for phased construction starting in late 1999. Clarcona-Ocoee Road from Hiawassee Road to Ocoee-Apopka Road is planned to be widened to four lane in the Year 200/01. Old Winter Garden Road from Apopka-Vineland to State Road 50 is scheduled to be widened to four lanes in the Year 2000/01. The FDOT is in the right-of-way acquisition phase of its Silver Star Road (from Hiawassee Road to Clarke Road) widening project. This project and improvements at the intersection of Silver Star and Ocoee Hills Roads are both in the FDOT's current Five-Year Plan. The construction of the Western Beltway was begun in June of 1998. It is anticipated that the segment from US 441 in Apopka to State Road 50 in Ocoee will be completed by the year 2001. This roadway is anticipated to change the driving habits of many west Orange County residents. Changes in Ocoee's traffic patterns will be City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 9 closely monitored when the project is complete. Progress on the above projects will be monitored and changes to the roadway capacities will be made as appropriate. Annual update of the City's transportation network as modeled using the Region's most recent OUATs model. During the fall of 1997, City staff and the City's transportation consultant, TransCore, began developing a Master Transportation Plan for the City of Ocoee. This plan is intended to identify the various transportation issues that will affect the City through the year 2020. The plan will also develop alternative solutions / remedies to address the identified issues. To date input from the City Commission and Planning and Zoning Commission has been received on the alternatives. These alternatives are now being evaluated on a project by project basis to determine their effectiveness. The most effective projects from all of the alternatives will be combined into a recommended transportation plan that, based on anticipated funding, will be incorporated into a phasing plan based on its ability to improve safety, increase mobility and relieve congestion. The recommended prioritized plan will be brought to the City Commission in the coming months for their consideration. City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 10 II. SANITARY SEWER A. The design capacity of the wastewater treatment facility. = CITY of OCOEE WASTEWATER TREATMENT The City of Ocoee has one FACILITY 1000 A.D.MIMS ROAD wastewater treatment facility with a permitted treatment capacity of 3.0 million gallons per day (MGD). The current Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) operation permit limits treatment capacity to the current effluent disposal capacity of 1.10 MGD. This is the current permitted effluent disposal capacity of the combined wastewater treatment plant site effluent ponds and the golf course. B. The existing level of service standard for average daily flows per equivalent residential unit. The existing level of service (LOS) is calculated by dividing the number of equivalent residential units (ERUs) into the average daily flows represented by the existing customer base. The average daily flow (daily flow counts taken from July 1997 through June 1998 and then averaged for the 12-month period) is 1.112 MGD (1,112,000 gallons per day). There are 4,481 customers on the each with an existing LOS of 248 gallons per day (GPD) per ERU. C. The adopted level of service standard for average daily flows per equivalent residential unit. The adopted LOS per the Ocoee Comprehensive Plan is 270 gallons per day (GPD) per ERU. D. The existing capacities or deficiencies of the system. The limiting factor for Ocoee's wastewater treatment plant is its permitted effluent disposal capacity. Although the current 1.112 MGD Annual Average Daily Flow ( AADF) through the plant exceeds the existing effluent disposal permit limitation of 1.1 MGD AADF, we are not under threat of enforcement action by any regulatory agencies, since we have permit applications in to various agencies for expansion of our effluent reuse and disposal systems. The agencies are in the process of reviewing those applications, and City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 11 we expect to be issued new permits within the next few months. These new permits will allow us to cooperate with the City of Winter Garden to operate our wastewater treatment plants to make the most efficient use of reclaimed water. Phase I of the proposed reclaimed water system will provide up to 1.5 MGD AADF of effluent disposal capacity. When combined, the disposal capacity of phases I through IV of the currently envisioned system would be approximately 3.5 MGD AADF. E. The capacities reserved for approved but unbuilt development. For concurrency purposes regarding sanitary sewer, the City of Ocoee defines approved but unbuilt development as those portions of a project which have not yet been built but which have sanitary sewer capacity reserved through a Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) permit. Table 3 outlines the projects which fall under this category and the number of gallons of capacity that have been reserved and are still unused for each of those projects. The current wastewater facility has a treatment capacity of 3.0 MGD. The system as currently permitted by DEP for effluent disposal can treat a total of 1.1 MGD or 4,074 ERUs. With the 1.112 MGD current use (which equates to 4,118 ERUs) and 291,373 gallons reserved (as permitted) for unbuilt development (1,079 ERUs), it appears the system is over capacity. However, many of the projects with capacity in the reserved bank will take several years to build out. To address the limiting factor, which is the effluent disposal capacity of the City's system, the City will begin construction in late 1998 of Phase I of an effluent reuse project that will allow us to distribute reclaimed water to the homes and businesses along the Clarke Road corridor. Phase I of this effluent reuse project will increase the wastewater treatment facility's effluent disposal capacity to 1.5 MGD, and future phases of the project will bring our ultimate effluent disposal capacity to approximately 3.5 MGD. F. The improvements to be made to the facility in the current fiscal year by any approved projects pursuant to previous development orders and the impact of such improvements on the existing capacities or deficiencies. All new development along the Clarke Road corridor will be required to install reuse lines as part of their infrastructure improvements. This includes the Prairie Lakes developments, Remington Oaks and other property along Clarke Road.

The improvements to be made to the facility in the current fiscal year by the City of Ocoee and the impacts of such improvements on the existing capacities or deficiencies. Construction of Phase I of the effluent reuse project should begin in late 1998. City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 14 Ill. POTABLE WATER A. The design capacity of the potable water treatment facilities. City of()coo There are three water plants interconnected in the City of Ocoee. The pumping capacity permitted by FDEP is as follows: South Water Plant: 5.076 MGD Forest Oaks Water Plant: 3.096 MGD Jamela Water Plant: 2.880 MGD Total for the 3 Plants: 11.052 MGD (36,840 ERUs) The St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) regulates the allowable water withdrawal for potable water production for the City's water system. The average annual daily flow (AADF) for 1998 as permitted by SJRWMD is 3.464 MGD (11,547 ERUs) and 3.524 MGD (11,747) for 1999. These are calendar year permits so the majority of our fiscal year will be measured against the 3.524 MGD. B. The existing level of service measured by the average number of gallons per day per unit based on the average flows experienced. The average number of gallons used per day based on the 12-month average from July 1997 through June 1998 was 4.708 MGD. Taking the 20 percent average deduction for unmetered losses for such things as hydrant flushing, leakages, and calibration variances in the meters, the average daily number of gallons actually used by customers in the system is 3.766 MGD. (The American Waterworks Association Research Foundation has estimated that leakages of up to 26 percent can be expected from a system of our size.) There are currently 8,167 customers representing approximately 12,600 ERUs in the system. Taking the number of ERUs and the average flow used by customers in the system, the existing LOS is 298.9 GPD/ERU. C. The existing potable water storage capabilities of the water system. The water storage capabilities are as follows: South Water Plant: 1,250,000 Gallons City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 15 Forest Oaks Water Plant: 1,050,000 Jamela Water Plant: 1,000,000 Total: 3,300,000 Gallons D. The existing minimum water pressure. The Land Development Code requires a minimum water pressure of 20 pounds per square inch (20 psi). New development is required to show that it meets this requirement (which is usually done through computer modeling). The existing system is tested by the Ocoee Fire Department on a regular basis through gauging fire hydrants. E. The adopted level of service standards for the potable water facilities. The adopted LOS is 300 GPD/ERU. F. The existing capacities or deficiencies of the system. The existing LOS of 298.9 GPD/ERU meets the adopted LOS as outlined in the Comprehensive Plan. The average daily flows represented by the current customers are above the permitted capacity; however, because this can be largely attributed to the watering of yards, it should be reconciled as soon as the reuse system is in place and certain parts of the City start using reclaimed water for irrigating their lawns. (See Paragraph G below for a discussion of capacities remaining after reserved gallons are added to existing gallons in the system.) G. The capacities reserved for approved but unbuilt development. For concurrency purposes regarding potable water, the City of Ocoee defines approved but unbuilt developments as those portions of a project which have not yet been built but which have potable water capacity reserved through a DEP permit. Table 4 outlines the projects which fall under this category and the number of potable water gallons that have been reserved and are still unused for each of those projects. With a permitted well pumping capacity of 3.524 MGD, the 4.708 MGD averaged for the past year and the 254,870 gallons reserved for approved but unbuilt development, put the system - as permitted - over capacity. This again is a result of having to use strictly potable water for irrigation purposes. As the reuse lines are put in place and the reclaimed water system becomes operational, the potable water City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 16 TABLE 4 WATER CAPACITY PERMITTED CAPACITY REMAINING PROJECT NAME (GALLONS) CAPACITY (GALLONS) Cross Creek 112,700 16,710 Florida Urology Group 600 600 Goodman Commercial Park 12,000 10,110 Grimes Office Park 2,100 2,100 Lake Olympia Square, Phase 1 6,650 1,284 Lakendon 30,000 26,850 Plantation Grove Shopping Center 11,000 966 Prairie Lakes, Phases 2,3,4,5 52,850 52,850 Remington Oaks 27,000 27,000 Spring Lake 63,350 55,800 Oaks at Starke Lake (Admiral Point) 38,000 7,200 Wesmere 80,500 11,100 West Oaks Mall 41,500 4,000 Whitehill, Phase II (Wedgewood ) 35,400 18,300 Whitehill, Phase Ilb(Wedgewood ) 20,000 20,000 TOTAL 533,650 254,870 demand will decline accordingly. It should also be noted that the reserved capacity for approved but unbuilt development will come on line over the next several years. It is included in this report as a tool to helping plan for future needs of the system. H. The improvements to be made to the facilities in the current fiscal year by any approved projects pursuant to previous development orders or permits and the impact of such improvements on the existing capacities or deficiencies. There are no trunk line potable water system improvements City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 17 scheduled to be made by developers in this fiscal year; however, as stated previously in this report, the installation of reuse lines by future developers along the Clarke Road corridor will help alleviate 30-to-40 percent of total residential flows for those future customers which can be directly attributed to irrigation purposes. The improvements to be made in the current fiscal year by the City of Ocoee and the impact of such improvements on the existing capacities or deficiencies. As part of the recent bond issue, the City has completed major upgrades to the South Water Plant and Forest Oaks Water Plant. These improvements include new wells and high service pumps. In late 1998 the City will begin construction on major enhancements to the distribution system. The City has also begun design of the first two phases of the wastewater reuse project. We anticipate being able to supply reuse water to selected areas by the fall of 1998. This will reduce the irrigation demand on the water system which will reduce the amount of water pumped. The wastewater reuse project will initially serve the mall area and Clarke Road medians with reclaimed water. That alone will cut the potable water consumption by some 250 ERUs. The 1997 Bond Issue included funds for the future retrofitting of several existing subdivisions along the Clarke Road corridor. That phase of the project will take another estimated 400 ERUs off the daily flows. We are also discussing with Orlando and Orange County, the possibility of tapping into the Conserve line that runs along Roberson Road. This would allow us to provide reuse water for irrigation to Wesmere, Windermere Groves, and Cross Creek as well as other development that will occur south of the Turnpike along Maguire Road. This will further reduce our withdrawal from the aquifer and will bring us at or below the level of withdrawal permitted by SJRWMD. City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 18 IV. SOLID WASTE A. The percentage of the total amount of solid waste disposal capacity allocated to the City of Ocoee by Orange County or other applicable solid waste disposal facilities. The City of Ocoee currently provides residential solid waste collection services. Commercial garbage is franchised to a private contractor. The City of Ocoee does not have a contract with Orange County for a certain allotment of solid waste disposal capacity. Orange County has not notified the City of any limitation or of any maximum allowable waste that will be accepted from the City. To this end, the City will permit additional customers until notified otherwise by the County. B. The existing level of service measured by the solid waste per pound per capita per weekly collection. Orange County currently places no overall limitations on the amount of solid waste generated by the City of Ocoee; however, the City does limit the amount of solid waste it collects from its residential customers and anything over that limit is only collected after the customer pays an additional fee. The current LOS for residential customers is 6.0 pounds per capita per day. Service is provided as required by state statute for the separation of Class 1 garbage from recyclable and yard waste. From July 1, 1997 through June 30, 1998, a total of 7,540 tons of Class 1 residential garbage was transported by the City of Ocoee to the Orange County landfill. That figure averages out to 628.33 tons per month or 1,256,660 pounds per month or 41,889 pounds per day. There are currently 7,302 residential garbage customers (households) in Ocoee. At 41,889 pounds per day, that equates to 5.74 pounds per day per customer or 1.91 pounds per person per day. The pounds per day per customer figure is consistent with previous years. Yard waste is calculated separately. Yard waste was collected by the City until March 12, 1998, at which time the service was contracted out to Jennings Environmental. While the City provided this service, the average daily yard waste per customer was 2.98 pounds per customer per day or .99 pounds per person per day. That added to the above figure for Class 1 garbage equals 2.9 pounds per person per day. This is still well below the 6 pounds per City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 19 person per day adopted LOS. A total of 1005 tons of residential recyclables was collected from July 1997 to June 1998. That amounts to 5.29 pounds per household per week. This represents a 1/2 pound drop in the amount of weekly recycling per household from the previous year. C. The projected capacities reserved for those projects with a Final Certificate of Concurrency. Because Orange County has not placed any limitation on the amount of solid waste generated by the City of Ocoee, the City will reserve capacity for approved but unbuilt development in one-year increments for those developments that receive Final Certificates of Concurrency. D. The existing recycling criteria as established by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and Orange County. The City of Ocoee began its residential recycling program in July 1990 in accordance with state and local regulations. All businesses and all multi-family housing within Orange County began recycling in 1995. Multi-family garbage collection is provided by the City's commercial garbage collector. Recycling services for commercial and multi-family developments may be done by the City's private commercial garbage contractor or any independent recycling company as long as they are certified as a recovered materials dealer. City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 20 V. STORMWATER DRAINAGE A. The existing level of service measured by storm event as determined by the City of Ocoee and its consulting engineers. The City's land Development Code requires that each new development design and install a stormwater management system that serves the project. In addition to projects associated with new development, the City has begun several projects to help improve stormwater conditions in the City. These projects have been divided into several phases and groups. The Phase I Group I drainage improvement projects are complete. These were mostly underdrain improvements to solve yard flooding. The Phase I Group II projects have gone to bid are in various stages of completion. These improvements address localized flooding at the intersection of Bluford and Orlando Avenues, the Sullivan Ditch, the intersection of Flewelling and Russell, Pioneer Key I, and others. The climbing excavator has been used extensively to maintain ditches throughout the City. It can travel along the bottom of a ditch, through up to four feet of standing water. It allows routine custodial maintenance of ditches for which there is a limited right-of-way, by minimizing the need to travel along the top of the ditch bank. As reported last year, the City was a co-applicant with Orange County for both Part I and Part II of the U.S. EPA National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) stormwater permit application. The final permit was issued on February 14, 1996. The permit was effective April 1, 1996 and is valid through February 28, 2001. It includes requirements for pollutant monitoring and drainage system improvements. The annual report for the first year of the permit was submitted in September 1997. B. The adopted level of service standard for storm drainage. The LOS for stormwater/drainage is the ability to contain a 25 year/24 hour storm event, consistent with Chapter 17-25 of the Florida Administrative Code. Development must meet all requirements for stormwater/drainage as outlined in the City of Ocoee's Land Development Code or other such stormwater drainage approvals as may be required by the Land Development Code or state agencies. City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 21 VI. RECREATION A. The existing acreage of park land. There are 151.25 acres of park land in the City of Ocoee. The list of parks with the corresponding acres is included in Table 5. B. The existing level of service measured by the number of acres of park land available per 1,000 residents of the City of Ocoee based on an inventory of park lands in the City and the population of the City. According to the Bureau of Economic and Business Research (BEBR) at the University of Florida, the latest population figures for Ocoee show 21,653 permanent residents ( as of 4/1/98). With 151.25 acres of existing park land, that gives the City an existing LOS of 6.985 or 7.0 acres of park land per 1,000 residents. C. The existing capacities or deficiencies of the recreational facilities. The adopted LOS for recreation is 4 acres of park land per 1,000 residents. As stated above, the existing LOS is 7.0 acres of park land for every 1,000 current residents. This leaves sufficient capacity in the system for additional residents. D. The capacities reserved for those projects with a Final Certificate of Concurrency. There are no residential developments with Final Certificates of Concurrency which must be included in determining capacities or deficiencies. E. The projected capacities or deficiencies due to those projects with a Final Certificate of Concurrency. As stated above, there are no residential developments with Final Certificates of Concurrency with populations that must be added to the existing population; therefore, there are no deficiencies in park acreage as a result of planned development. There is capacity under the current park acreage and current park land LOS for 16,159.5 additional residents.

F. The improvements or additions of land to be made to the recreation system in the current fiscal year by any approved projects pursuant to previous development orders and the impact of such improvements on the existing capacities or deficiencies. There are no park lands scheduled to be added to the city-wide park system by developers in the 1998-99 fiscal year; however, residential subdivisions are still required by the Land Development Code to City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 23 provide park land and facilities to serve the residents of their subdivision. This park land is not added to the city-wide system since it is private property owned and maintained by the individual homeowners associations, but it does reduce the demand on certain public facilities. G. The improvements or additions of land to be made to the recreation system in the current fiscal year by the City of Ocoee and the impact of such improvements on the existing capacities or deficiencies. The new recreational complex on A.D. Mims Road will operate under a lease arrangement with the Wastewater Fund for the land it will occupy. Since this lease arrangement is in place, and the first phase of the project is under design and set to begin construction in late 1998, the 10 acres for Phase I has been included in the inventory of park lands. The City is also planning to add approximately 40 acres to the city- wide park system in the near future. Details about the exact location and size of the parks is not known at this time. It is anticipated that one park site will be created in the area south of State Road 50 in the Maguire Road area while other park areas will be created in the northeast section of the City. The 40 acres has not been included in the inventory. City of Ocoee-Inventory for Concurrency Management Page 24
