Item #11 Approval of Distribution Easement with Progress Energy Florida, Inc. for the Construction of a Left Turn Lane into the Glad Tidings Church Propertyf Ior iaa AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET Meeting Date: December 2, 2014 Item # I I Contact Name: Contact Number: David A. Wheeler, P.E. Reviewed By: Department Director: City Manager: 407 - 905 -3100, ext. 1504 Subject: Distribution Easement with Duke Energy for the Construction ora Left Turn lane into the Glad Tidings Church Property (District 1 — Commissioner John Grogan) Background Summary: As part of this phase of the development of the Glad Tidings Church, they are being required to construct a left turn lane for safer access to their property. The widening of the road for the turn lane will conflict with the existing overhead distribution lines owned by Duke Energy Florida, Inc. Duke Energy is being required to relocate it facilities by Orange County, who has jurisdiction over this section of Fullers Cross Road. The relocation of the Duke Energy facilities will be at no expense to the City. The City owns the property (parcel ID: 282206000000056) at the northeast corner of Fullers Cross and Ocoee - Apopka Roads and adjacent to the Glad Tidings Church and plans to have the property developed in the future. This parcel was one of the outlying parcels included in the purchase of land from Cocoa -Cola, Inc. for the development of the Ocoee -Crown Point PUD project. The City has already secured 20 feet of property from Glad Tidings for the future road widening of Fullers Cross Road. As part of the development of the City tract, 20 feet of land along Fullers Cross Road will also need to be dedicated to Public right -of -way for the future road improvements, too. Duke Energy looked at placing the relocated distribution facilities underground as opposed to installing new poles and overhead lines. This would help meet the provisions of the Land Development Code where all utilities for new developments are required to be placed underground. All of those utilities with the exception of Duke Energy Florida, Inc. place their facilities within the road rights -of -way (ROW). Duke Energy has always placed their underground facilities within a privately held easement outside the public road rights -of -way. The relocated underground facilities will be placed in the northern 10 feet of the easement and cross perpendicularly from the road ROW to that northern portion of the easement. Issue: Should the City of Ocoee grant an Easement over a portion the City property located at northeast corner of Fullers Cross and Ocoee - Apopka Roads to Duke Energy to relocate underground power service to the Glad Tidings Church? Recommendations Staff recommends that the City Commission grant Duke Energy a Distribution Easements over the portion of the City property (parcel ID: 282206000000056) located at the northeast corner of Fullers Cross and Ocoee - Apopka Roads as shown on the exhibit of the easement to allow for the relocation of the power service to the Glad Tidings Church and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Distribution Easement with Duke Energy. Attachments: 1) Easement with Duke Energy Florida, Inc. 2) Aerial location map Financial Impact: There is no financial impact associated with the granting of the Easement to Duke Energy.
