environmental park implementation.
Background Summary:
The City of Ocoee has been actively working with the St. Johns River Water Management District in
acquiring environmentally sensitive land under a Participation Agreement dated January 25, 2001. This
agreement it is scheduled to expire on January 25, 2006. In an effort to continue participation with SJRWMD,
the City has requested to extend the existing Participation Agreement to a certain parcel of land (+/-12.9

To this goal, the St. Johns River Water Management District has agreed to extend the existing Participation
Agreement with the City of Ocoee, and to provide an extension of the available funds for design and
construction of a proposed Environmental Park. Attached hereto is a Staff Report from Robert Christianson
to the St. Johns River Water Management District Governing Board which includes a summary of the terms
and conditions of the amended agreement. Accordingly, these conditions were set by the SJRWMD for
insurance of the parcel acquisition and project implementation.
Issue:
Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners approve the Amended Participation Agreement with
St. Johns River Water Management District consistent with the same items set forth in the SJRWMD action?
Recommendations:
Staff respectfully recommends that the Mayor and City Commissioners approve the Amended Participation
Agreement with St. Johns River Water Management District consistent with the same items set forth in the
SJRWMD action and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute that document. Final form of the
Amended Participation Agreement will be subject to review and approval by the Community Development

RECOMMENDATION
(1) Approval and execution of the Amendment to Participation Agreement with the City of Ocoee,
Florida, based on the terms and conditions summarized herein, providing for: (a) an extension of
the term to July 1, 2007; (b) inclusion of the Pine Street Parcel as a parcel eligible for funding
under the Agreement; (c) an increase in total funding for acquisition, and for development of a
master plan and final design for a water quality improvement/storm water management project
("Project"); and (d) a covenant in the City's deed, such that in the event the master plan and final
design for the Project has not been completed by July 1, 2007, or construction on the Project has
not commenced by July 1, 2009, the property will be transferred to the District; and (2) Approval

BACKGROUND
A Participation Agreement with the City of Ocoee, Florida ("Agreement") was approved by the
Board at its November 2000 Governing Board meeting. The Agreement provides for the purchase
of lands in the Crown Point Conservation Area, located on the eastern shore of Lake Apopka, for
the purpose of conservation and water quality improvement, to further the Western Beltway - S.R.
429 Part C, Phase I Mitigation Plan. The Agreement is dated January 25, 2001, and continues for
a term of five years, or until the $600,000 of funding provided for therein has been expended by the
City, whichever occurs first.
To date, the District has reimbursed the City $68,266 for costs associated with land acquisition,
and approximately 51.85 acres have been purchased in the Crown Point Conservation Area with
Beltway C Mitigation funds. Other parcels within the Conservation Area are either owned by
unwilling sellers, have been designated as "Conservation" as part of a development plan for
adjacent property, or were purchased by the City using other funding sources.
DISCUSSION
The City is currently negotiating the purchase of a 12.9 acre parcel, located just east and upstream
of the Crown Point Conservation Area, as shown on two Exhibits attached hereto (the "Pine Street
Parcel" or the "Parcel"). The Pine Street Parcel is connected hydrologically to the Conservation
Area and Lake Apopka. The City plans to construct a water quality improvement /storm water
management facility (the "Project") on the site. Indications are that the acquisition costs of the
Parcel, and the costs to develop a master plan and final design for the Project, will be
approximately $600,000. The City has requested that the District amend the Agreement to: (1)
include the Pine Street Parcel as a parcel eligible for funding under the Agreement; (2) extend the
expiration date to allow the City time to conclude their negotiations and close the Pine Street
Parcel no later than July 1, 2006, and to complete the design of the Project no later than July 1,
2007; and (3) allocate Beltway C Mitigation funds in the combined amount of $600,000 for
purchase of the Pine Street Parcel and for costs of Project planning and design, in addition to the
amount previously funded under the Agreement.
Under the terms of the amended Agreement, the City shall be responsible for obtaining the design
and engineering plans necessary for construction of the Project, to be reimbursed by the District up
to the allocated amount of funding from Beltway C Mitigation funds. The City shall hold full fee
simple title to the Parcel after closing, subject to the following described covenant. Use of the
Parcel will be restricted to passive recreation and a storm water management project for water
quality improvement; in the event the City has not completed the Project design by July 1,2007, or
has not commenced construction of the Project by July 1, 2009, the District will require the City to
transfer ownership of the Parcel to the District. Any revenues derived from the sale of materials
from the Pine Street Parcel will be applied toward costs of design, construction or operation of the
Project.
