Approval of the Annual Kicks 4 Guns Firearms Turn-In Initiative: Request for up to $4,000 from the State Equitably Shared Funds (Forfeiture Funds). (Police Chief Plasencia) The City of Ocoee Police Department in partnership with the Central Florida Crimeline will be organizing the annual Kicks 4 Guns (gun turn in). The event is scheduled for May 19, 2022. Law enforcement hosts participating in the initiative typically give $50 gift cards for turned in firearms. Per Florida State Statutes 932.7055, any local law enforcement agency that acquires at least $15,000 pursuant to the Florida Contraband Forfeiture Act within a fiscal year must expend or donate no less than 15 percent of such proceeds for the support or operation of any drug treatment, drug abuse education, drug prevention, crime prevention, safe neighborhood, or school resource officer program(s). The Ocoee Police Department requests to spend up to $4,000 from its Forfeiture account for the purchase of gift cards to trade for guns in conjunction with the Central Florida Crimeline. Regular City Commission May 3, 2022 2 | Page 3. Approval to Donate State Forfeiture Monies to Law Enforcement Organizations. (Police Chief Plasencia) The Ocoee Police Department historically donated State Forfeiture Funds to support programs or organizations that partner with the Police Department in its crime prevention/public safety mission and wishes to continue to do so. As the services these organizations provide to the Ocoee Police Department and the community cannot be duplicated within the Department, the Police Department recommends granting monies from its forfeiture fund. The Department recommends expending monies from its State Police Forfeiture Fund to law enforcement related uses as follows: $2,000 to Mothers Against Drunk Drivers (MADD), $1,000 to Children’s Safety Village which assists with child safety programs, $2,000 to Aspire Behavioral Healthcare (aka Central Florida Crisis Intervention Team), the facility that trains our police officers how to deal with people in mental health crisis; and $2,000 to Crimeline, which provides crime solving tips to the Police Department, as well as publicity and rewards to the public.

Advertised in the West Orange Times on Thursday, April 7, 2022 and April 21, 2022) (Development Services Director Rumer) The First Reading of Ordinance and Public Hearing was held at the April 19, 2022, City Commission meeting. On September 21, 2021, the City Commission approved an Ordinance establishing a temporary moratorium on the processing and consideration of applications for development orders, development permits, and building permits for self-storage within the C-3 (General Commercial) and I-1 (Restricted Manufacturing and Warehousing) Zoning Districts for a period of six months. During this moratorium, the Development Services Department has researched what the Industry standard is for self-storage facilities. Staff recommends implementing the following criteria for self-storage facilities: Maintaining the current code provisions for properties located within Special Overlay Districts with a C-3 or I-1 Zoning Designation: 1) Self-storage is permitted only as an accessory use; 2) Provide for the use of Self-Storage Facility as a Special Exception in the C-3 and I-1 Zoning Districts.

During the February 15, 2022, City Commission meeting, discussion relating to the timing of the placement of political signs so far out from a scheduled election was made.
