Administrator Corless)
CPH, Inc., was awarded RFQ #21-003 for the S. Bluford Avenue Streetscape project earlier this year. Staff
from the CRA,Public Works, and Utilities departments assigned to this project have reviewed several scopes
and fee proposals brought forth for design and engineering services for S. Bluford Avenue from Old Winter
Garden Road north to Delaware Street.Based on the complexity of the project and there being several design
options on the table,staff feels that it is best to first undertake preliminary engineering services in order to lock
down the preferred design. Based on written correspondence with the Consultant, staff supports the proposal
for preliminary engineering.
3. Approval of Interlocal Agreement with Orange County for the Transfer of Jurisdiction
of Lauren Beth Avenue. (Development Services Director Rumer)
City Staff and Orange County are working on transferring a piece of fee simple owned property that is County

Orange County, Lake Apopka Natural Gas, Duke Energy, Century Link, AT&T, and the City of Ocoee. The
Orange County Property Appraiser's Office reviewed the vacate area and legal description and has no

FIRST READING OF ORDINANCE
7. First Reading of Ordinance to Amend Article III,Chapter 1 in the Code of Ordinances,
Creating a Fingerprinting Fee and Adopt a Resolution Establishing a Fee. (Second Reading
and Public Hearing scheduled for October 5, 2021, Regular Commission Meeting at 6:15 pm or soon
thereafter) (Police Chief Plasencia)
The Ocoee Police Depai tiuent's administrative staff provides the service of fingerprinting to citizens of Ocoee
and non-residents at a maximum cost of five dollars ($5.00) on Fridays from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM. The
fingerprinting service is used by individuals who require fingerprinting for employment, immigration,
concealed weapons permits, business licensing, adoption, etc. Staff has researched the fees charged by other
municipalities and has found that there is no local law enforcement agency in or around Orange County which
provides fingerprinting services to non-residents free of charge. Most law enforcement agencies also charge
residents a fee for fingerprinting services. By establishing an ordinance providing for a fee for fingerprinting
services,the Police Department can recover some of the costs associated with providing this service to residents.
The proposed amount of the fee is twenty-five dollars($25.00)to non-Ocoee residents and ten dollars($10)to
residents.

8. First Reading of Ordinance to Repeal Chapter 15 of the Code of Ordinances and Adopt
a Resolution to Reestablish the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board. (Second Reading
and Public Hearing scheduled for October 5, 2021, Regular Commission Meeting at 6:15 pm or soon
thereafter) (City Clerk Sibbitt)
Chapter 15 of the Code of Ordinances entitled"Parks and Recreation Advisory Board"was originally adopted
by Ordinance No.908 on September 9, 1986. Since that time advisory boards have been adopted by resolution
in order to revise the bylaws without amending the City Code, which entails a first and second reading,
publishing an ad in the newspaper and amending the City Code with Municode. Staff finds that it is in the best
interest of the City to establish a Parks and Recreation Advisory Board by resolution to allow for the revision
of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board bylaws, from time to time, without the need to amend the City
Code by ordinance.
9. First Reading of Ordinance for Starbucks Ocoee - Substantial Amendment to the
Approved PUD for Fountains West PUD; Project No: RZ-21-07-26. (Second Reading and
Public Hearing scheduled for October 5, 2021, Regular Commission Meeting at 6:15 pm or soon thereafter)
(Development Services Director Rumer)
Fountains West PUD property is located on the northeast corner of the intersection of West Road and Ocoee-
Apopka Road.The property encompasses approximately 43.03 acres of land of which approximately 4.73 acres
was designated as wetland/conservation and was dedicated to the City. Additionally, as part of the onsite
wetland mitigation, 1.1 acres was dedicated to the City as a Public Trail.The approved PUD created eight(8)
commercial lots of which there is one lot undeveloped(Lot 2).The original PUD was approved with a Drive-
In Restaurant permitted on Lots 3 -7.During the discussion and approval of the Development Agreement for
the PUD, the City Commission amended the permitted uses for Lot 3 by removing "Drive-in" Restaurants.
Subsequent to that approval,McDonalds applied for a restaurant with their customary drive-thru on Lot 2 and
was denied based on the drive-thru location. The applicant, Starbucks Coffee, is proposing a land-use change
that will allow Lot 3 to construct a new Starbucks coffee shop with two(2)drive-thru lanes at the former Fifth
Third Bank site.
SECOND READING OF ORDINANCE—PUBLIC HEARING
10. Second Reading of Ordinance Regulating the Retail Sale of Dogs, Cats and Rabbits by
Pet Stores. (Advertised in the West Orange Times on Thursday, September 9, 2021) (City Attorney
Cookson)
On June 24,2021,the Board of County Commissioners of Orange County enacted an ordinance prohibiting the
retail sale of dogs, cats and rabbits in Orange County. The Orange County Charter specifically provides no
county ordinance shall be effective within a municipality if the municipality maintains an ordinance covering
the same subject matter or activity as the County Ordinance. City Staff has determined that the continued ability
of the one existing pet store within the City engaged in the retail sale of dogs, cats, and rabbits and the
prohibition of any other pet store within the City to engage in the retail sale of dogs, cats and rabbits, is in the
best interest of the health,safety and welfare of its residents,citizens and public at large and has provided three
(3)ordinance options for the Commission's consideration.
11. Second Reading of Ordinance Implementing a Temporary Moratorium on Processing
Applications for Self-Storage within the C-3 (General Commercial) and I-1 (Restricted
Manufacturing and Warehousing) Zoning Districts. (Advertised in the Orlando Sentinel on
Sunday, September 12, 2021) (Development Services Director Rumer)
The First Reading of Ordinance was read at the September 7,2021, City Commission meeting. Development
Services Department has received numerous inquiries and requests to meet regarding new Self-Storage facilities
within the City's C-3 (General Commercial) and I-1 (Restricted Manufacturing and Warehousing) zoning
districts. In keeping with the City's visions of providing opportunities for amenities such as restaurants,
shopping, mixed-use centers, and employment for its 50,000 residents, a review of the developable land and
carrying capacities of self-storage facilities is essential to fulfilling the vision. Currently,the City has 11 self-
storage facilities that are operating,under development,or recently approved. Self-storage facilities are unique
in that they tend to be large buildings that generate low utility consumption,low traffic trips,and also generate
low employment. A moratorium on self-storage facilities will allow time for staff to facilitate a study on the
optimum carrying capacity of units based on current and future populations to better assess future projects and
better understand the tradeoffs for having self-storage on a parcel that may be better suited for retail or
restaurants based on the City's vision.

REGULAR AGENDA
12. American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Funding Consulting Services Selection Process.
(Finance Director Roberts)
The City of Ocoee will receive$24,172,699 in the form of a federal grant through the American Rescue Plan
Act(ARPA).Funding will be received in two equal tranches of$12,086,350.The first tranche is expected by
September 30,2021,with the second tranche anticipated by summer 2022.Federal grants inherently require an
extensive amount of compliance monitoring and reporting, and are subject to more stringent audit procedures.
In addition, procurements involving federal funds are subject to complex federal procurement rules. Should
the City fail to comply with any of the requirements set forth in the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, any
particular use of the funds could be denied by the granting authority and the City could have to repay those
funds. Recognizing the unique and complex requirements of ARPA, staff, in consultation with the City
Manager,believes it is in the best interest of the City to contract with a consultant uniquely qualified to assist
the City in meeting these requirements. Due to time constraints, Staff recommends the use of the previously
bid State of Florida DMS Contract,which includes hourly rates.
