Subject: Second Reading of an Ordinance Amending the City Code Extending the Hours ofOn Premise Sale and Consumption of Alcoholic Beverages within City Limits
Background Summary:
The City's Code of Ordinances for on premise sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages provides for noalcoholic beverages being sold, consumed, or permitted to be served between the hours of 2: 00 a. m. and11: 00 a. m. every day of the week.
The Cities of Orlando, Winter Garden, and Windermere have amended their respective codes to allow forthe sale and consumption of alcohol on premises to begin at 7: 00 a. m. and to conclude at 2: 00 a. m. everyday in order not to be placed in an economic disadvantage in Orange County. City Staff, with the backing ofthe West Orange Chamber of Commerce is proposing to amend the code to fall in line with these cities tokeep Ocoee on an even playing field with respect to economic development.
The proposed amendment will change the hours of on premise sale and consumption of alcohol from 11: 00a. m. to 7: 00 a. m. every day of the week. The cutoff time of 2: 00 a. m. will remain in effect.
Issue:
Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commission approve an ordinance amending the City of Ocoee Codewhich will revise the hours of on premise sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages?
Recommendation:
Staff recommends the Honorable Mayor and City Commission approve an ordinance amending the City ofOcoee Code which will revise the hours of on premise sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages.

RE: City of Ocoee Ordinance: Chapter 38 Alcoholic Beverages: § 38- 6. - Hours. [ Amended 12- 20- 1988 by Ord. No.88- 69; 7- 5- 1989 by Ord. No. 89- 15]
Dear Mr. Frank,
Back in May, we discussed the change to the Orange County Alcohol Ordinance for Sunday sales which went intoeffect on May 15, 2017. That ordinance now allows for the sale and service of alcohol on Sunday in OrangeCounty lodging properties and restaurants to begin at 7: 00 am and to conclude at 2: 00 am.
Upon my review of the communities within the West Orange County service area of our Chamber of Commerce,the city of Ocoee' s time of service on Sunday does not mirror those communities. Service in Ocoee begins at11: 00 am on Sunday and concludes at 2: 00 am on Monday. In addition to the county, the cities of Orlando and
Winter Garden and the Town of Windermere begin service at 7: 00 am on Sunday and conclude at 2: 00 am.
In order for the existing businesses and future businesses within these industry sectors identified above to not be
placed in an economic disadvantaged position, the West Orange Chamber of Commerce ( WOCC) urges the city toamend its ordinance to mirror the change made by the county and other municipalities. With all the planneddevelopment for the downtown area at Highway 50 and Bluford, and Maguire and Highway 50, this ordinancemay discourage businesses of this type from locating in Ocoee.
The WOCC will be happy to support this ordinance change and is prepared to facilitate informational sessions and
appear before the city commission. Please let us know what else we may do to move this matter forward.
Yours truly,
jitt.....v\....tLi6._,,,,,.._
