Rezone + 36.46 acres of land located along the North Normandy  
Background:  
Boulevard Corridor, south and east of the I-4 Logistics Park IPUD  
within the Activity Center from single-family residential (R1-AA) to  
Mixed Use Planned Unit Development (MPUD) to allow a mix of

Approximately 52% or 19.26 acres of the MPUD are proposed for light

Amendment to Section 110-806 “Fences, Walls and Hedges” to correct

Background:  
The City is required to submit the 2024-2025 AHAC report to the  
Florida Housing Finance Corporation annually to evaluate the  
implementation of each approved action. The AHAC is required to  
review and develop an analysis of eleven areas that could influence the  
provision of affordable housing within the City of Deltona.

8. COMMENTS ON CONSENT ITEMS:  
9. CONSENT AGENDA:  
A.  
N/A  
Background:  
B.  
The Commission approved the annual budget for FY 2024-25 on  
September 16, 2024. Staff has determined that substantially more  
households need help with minor repairs, especially roof replacements  
for elderly residents and also for those affected by the hurricane. To  
provide this assistance, a budget amendment is necessary.  
Background:  
C.  
In order to evaluate the internal conditions of the sanitary sewer system,  
a CCTV camera truck is utilized which includes a physical truck,  
computer, and camera system. The conditions in which the camera  
system is used is very harsh, requiring frequent service and  
maintenance. During these times of service and maintenance we are  
unable to evaluate the internal conditions of the sanitary sewer system.  
The current truck is serviceable but has aging technology. The current  
camera truck and system is fully amortized. It is the intent to use the  
current CCTV truck and camera system as secondary equipment. For  
the FY 2024/2025 this item was budgeted at $550k. Grant funding was  
applied for but not awarded. The City received a quoted price of  
$498,609.94 from the Florida Sherrif’s Vehicle contract which is a  
competitively bid contract in compliance with the City of Deltona  
purchasing policy. The actual price of $453,108.00 is after a  
$45,501.94 discount as an existing customer. The City of Deltona -  
Deltona Water utilizes CUES software & hardware, thus necessitating  
the need to purchase the replacement equipment from CUES. CUES  
is the sole source of genuine CUES Replacement Parts & Service.  
CUES is the sole manufacturer of the K2 Summit and Granite Net  
video/footage capture systems.  
Background:  
D.  
This new Ford Maverick will be utilized by the Utility Division as a  
vehicle for wastewater operators at the Deltona Lakes Water  
Reclamation Facility to take samples and collect field data at locations  
throughout the city’s infrastructure. The budgeted capital cost was  
$38,000, but upon further evaluation and needs assessment the  
required vehicle price is $28,580.56. Staff obtained a quote through  
Duval Ford using the competitively bid Florida Sheriffs Association  
Light Vehicle Contract #FSA-VEL31.0.  
Background:  
E.  
Over time certain items of the City become obsolete or lose their  
usefulness via replacement, upgrade or loss of functionality. These  
items should be declared surplus and disposed of by the most  
appropriate means available. The attached Resolution declares certain  
assets as surplus and authorizes their disposal.  
Background:

On September 25, 2024, Property owner Carlos Anotnion Henriques

Per the City Recognition Policy adopted by the City Commission at the  
Background:  
Regular Commission Meeting held on Monday, June 17, 2024, the  
following recognitions are being requested for the month of November:  
1. Proclamation - 2024 Small Business Saturday  
2. Band Recognition & Performance on December 9th - Deltona  
High School Blue Brigade Marching Band  
10. ACTION ITEMS:  
A.  
As the sponsor of Section 401(a) and 457(b) deferred compensation  
plans for its employees, the City has a fiduciary responsibility to comply  
with ERISA standards, including establishing plan procedures,  
providing plan information to employees, and evaluating fees charged  
to the plan by investment providers. To ensure our continued  
compliance with these standards, staff recommends contracting with a  
vendor to perform these duties. The City of Leesburg entered into an  
agreement with NFP Retirement Inc. via the RFP process and this  
contract allows for “piggybacking” by other municipalities. NFP’s  
management fee is charged to the plans and not paid by the City, but  
NFP estimates this will be more than offset by renegotiating the  
administrative fees currently charged to the plan investments.  
Background:  
Upon approval of this item authorizes any and all necessary actions,  
documents or budget transfers to facilitate Commission approval and  
further authorized the Interim City Manager to sign any documents  
necessary to further Commission approval of this item.  
B.  
Staff solicited proposals for Collection Agency Services. The Selection  
Committee completely evaluated and scored the proposals received.  
The Selection Committee then met and came to a consensus to  
recommend awarding RFP#24028 to RTR Financial Services, Inc.  
Background:

Catalina Pointe, LLC (Applicant) has proposed a Proportionate Fair  
Share Agreement to mitigate the projects transportation impacts to  
Howland Boulevard pursuant to F.S. 163.3180(5)(h) for Catalina  
Pointe, consisting of 277 residential dwelling units and does not include  
the impact of the commercial tract, which will require a separate  
proportionate fair share agreement.  
Background:  
D.  
Annually the city performs various sanitary sewer rehabilitation of  
gravity sewer lines, manhole rehabilitations, and other various pipelines  
and conduits through contracted services in the amount of up to  
$1,000,000 budgeted each year. These services include CIPP lining of  
pipes to improve structural integrity and reduce Infiltration and  
Exfiltration to and from the sanitary sewer system. These services  
reduce the amount of groundwater that leaks into and out of the sanitary  
sewer system through defects in the aging system extending the useful  
life of the pipework currently in place throughout the sanitary sewer  
system. A blanket PO is necessary as these services are prioritized  
based on findings through CCTV inspections and are performed based  
upon linear square feet that are accomplished throughout the fiscal  
year. These funds are budgeted.  
Background:  
E.
