notify the citizens of the proposed budget and allow the opportunity for their comments. Potential dates for the
budget workshops and hearings are restrictive due to the timing of the holiday and vacation schedules. Staff
recommends the City Commission approve the following dates for the August budget workshops:

stormwater management system south of W. Franklin Street between N. Kissimmee Ave and Bluford Ave. The
stormwater system consists of two cascading interconnected urban ponds – a filtering Marsh Treatment System
and a larger Wet Detention Stormwater Pond. The urban pond system will be walled on all sides and will
include the installation of a boardwalk over the pond walls. The stormwater system will be surrounded by
enhanced hardscape and landscape park features. An existing ditch system that traverses the site will be rerouted
and controlled with weirs for drainage improvements. The bid was publicly advertised on May 9, 2021, and
opened on June 22, 2021. A total of five (5) bids were received. All bids are available in the Finance Department

available funds achieved by savings, making repairs, or redistributing other resources by reallocating specified
capital funds.

(Police Chief Plasencia)
The Police Department provides fingerprinting services to our citizens as well as conducting pre-employment
background checks for Police Department employees. The Police Department’s current fingerprinting system,
which includes a computer, printer, and fingerprint scanner, is no longer supported by the manufacturer due to
its age and cannot be updated to the latest software to remain compliant with FDLE Information Systems
standards. The Police Department wishes to purchase a new system to not only maintain our current level of
service to the public, but to expand services to include the electronic submission of fingerprints to FDLE which
the current system cannot do for our citizens. The cost of new Livescan fingerprinting system is $11,060.92
and the Police Department wishes to purchase the system using existing Police Impact Fees.
13. Approval to Award Grant Funding for Police Department Demountable Wall Project.
(Police Chief Plasencia)
On June 2, 2020, this Commission approved accepting the Coronavirus Emergency Supplemental Funding
(CESF) award from the U.S. Department of Justice to be used to prepare for, prevent, and respond to the
coronavirus pandemic. The amount awarded to the City was $142,727.00. A component of the grant award
consisted of creating a more separate workspace between individual police employees by installing
demountable walls within the Police Department’s building. This project will be contracted to, and permitted
by, approved vendor DBK Construction for $28,253. The materials will be purchased under an existing GSA
contract from NXTWall for $50,779. FDLE Grants Management has confirmed all costs contained within the
proposals are acceptable expenditures.
14. Approval of Change Order No. 3 for Fullers Cross Road and Ocoee Apopka
Intersection Improvements (RFQ #19-008). (Public Works Director Krug)
The City Commission awarded the Construction Manager At Risk contract for the Fullers Cross Road and
Ocoee Apopka Road Intersection Improvements at the September 17, 2019, meeting to Oelrich Construction,
Inc. During construction, Oelrich Construction discovered a conflict between the City’s existing 12-inch water
main on the east side of Ocoee Apopka Road and the proposed box culvert extension. The Public Works and
Utilities Departments worked together to determine the most expedient solution to the conflict. Various options
were considered and, ultimately, the relocation of the 12-inch water main was determined to be the best way
forward. Due to the conflict between the existing 12-inch water main and a new box culvert extension,
additional time is required for the construction of the Fullers Cross and Ocoee Apopka Intersection
Improvements. An additional 52 calendar days are required due to the delay caused by the conflict. The cost of
the change order is $114,308.70, which will bring the total cost of the contract to $2,248,130.36, with the
change order to be funded from City Road Impact Fees.

15. Approval to Hire Code Enforcement Board Attorney. (Support Services Director
Butler)
Under Section 7-5 of the City Code, the City Commission appoints a Board Attorney to act as legal counsel for
the Code Enforcement Board ("CEB Attorney"). The previously appointed CEB Attorney is no longer available
to serve the Code Enforcement Board and suggests the use of another Attorney within the same firm to continue
serving the Board. As attorneys from the previous CEB Attorney's law firm have served as the Code
Enforcement Board Attorney for the City for several years, the City Attorney recommends that James “Skip”
Fowler, Esq., serve as CEB Attorney to allow for an efficient transition of those duties. The City Attorney has
determined that Mr. Fowler has the requisite experience, availability and desire to perform such services. He
has previously performed this service.
16. Approval for the Granting of a 25-Foot Wide Easement for 512 3rd Street. (Utilities
Director Croteau)
On May 18, 2021, City Commission approved the granting of a 25-foot easement along 3rd Street covering
five properties to construct a 4-inch water main due to multiple properties inquiring about water service and
the willingness to annex into the City. The Utilities Department is preparing for construction of the 4-inch water
main along 3rd Street and one more property has inquired about water service and is willing to annex into the
City. To provide water service to 512 3rd Street, an easement from the property will have to be acquired. This
property has agreed to grant an easement to the City to build and maintain City facilities within the easement
area. The work to provide water service will begin once all required documents have been collected and the
easement has been approved and recorded with Orange County.
17. Approval to Piggyback on the City of Tarpon Springs Contract with Odyssey
Manufacturing for the City Sodium Hypochlorite Supply. (Utilities Director Croteau)
The City of Ocoee budgets funds annually for the delivery and supply of its disinfectant for water and
wastewater treatment. Odyssey Manufacturing has been the City’s main supplier of their Sodium Hypochlorite
using a “piggyback” contract with the City of Leesburg which expires on September 30th of this year. Odyssey
Manufacturing has secured a new contract with the City of Tarpon Springs which runs through May 26, 2025.
The new contract would raise our rate from $0.56/gallon to $0.60 but allows us to keep the same supplier that
the City has used for more than 10 years. Odyssey has proved to be a reliable vendor and has served the City
well in regular and emergency circumstances. The increase in price is a combination of fuel charges, labor
shortages, and supply constraints.

22. First Reading of Ordinance Increasing the Salary Portion of the Compensation of the
Mayor and Commissioners. (Second Reading and Public Hearing scheduled for August 3, 2021,Regular Commission

the annual salary of the Mayor and the Commissioners by ordinance. However, the Charter specifies that no
ordinance increasing salaries will take effect until the date of commencement of the terms of members of the
City Commission elected at the next regular city election. Furthermore,the Charter provides that any ordinance
increasing salaries must be adopted at least six(6)months prior to the election after which the salary increases
take effect. The next regular city election will be in March 2023. Thus, if an ordinance increasing salaries is
adopted at any time prior to September 2022,the salary increases will not go into effect until after the March
2023 election.

REGULAR AGENDA
32. Fire Station 38 Stand-By Generator. (Public Works Director Krug)
The Fire Department began occupying the new location for Fire Station 38 at the Vignetti Park site in early
2020. The previous facility in the Fountains West shopping center did not have a standby generator. However,
since moving into the facility, there has been discussion relating to the need for a standby generator in case of
power loss. The current Station 38 is a manufactured building and will not be occupied during a declared storm
event. Public Works has sized and solicited pricing for generators that would meet the needs of the station
should power be interrupted. The cost to install a new 30kW generator is $25,810.00. This cost is not currently
funded in the City Capital Improvements budget and would need to be funded from Contingency Funds in the
current fiscal year. Public Works is requesting Commission direction on funding the generator in this fiscal
year or to be incorporated in the next fiscal year’s budget.
