BACKGROUND<br />

The Town of Dundee is located in Central Florida along bustling US 27 and is central located<br />

between Tampa and Orlando. The Town consists of a compact twelve square miles and is home<br />

to about 3,372 residents. Dundee has an excellent mix of retail establishments along US 27 and<br />

is home to Dundee Citrus Growers Association which is one of the largest fresh fruit<br />

cooperatives in the Florida Citrus Industry.<br />

Dundee’s General Fund Budget & Enterprise Fund Budget is $4.3 million dollars. The Town<br />

recently completed several large capital improvement projects including a Town Center, Library,<br />

Water Plant Facility, and new Public Works Building. With these projects being completed the<br />

FY 2012-2013 includes no additional capital improvement projects. The Town has<br />

approximately 25 full and part-time employees and outsources several core services such as solid<br />

waste and law enforcement.<br />

The three most significant issues facing the Town are:<br />

Revenue reductions. Over the past three years due to the economic downturn and<br />

housing collapse the Town has experienced a major reduction in ad valorem revenues.<br />

<br />

Water and Sewer Infrastructure. Although t<strong>here</strong> have been many new improvements to<br />

the Town’s water supply, t<strong>here</strong> are many areas of the community that have antiquated<br />

water distribution lines that the Town has failed to maintain or properly replace. It will<br />

be imperative for the Town to take advantage of existing grants in the future to replace<br />

this infrastructure.<br />

Downtown Redevelopment. Like many other the small Florida communities the<br />

downtown is and has been in a state of economic decline. Effective solutions to the<br />

problems of deteriorating building stock, loss of business, and the waning economic<br />

strength of downtown are crucial to the survival of the Town itself. Town staff has<br />

recently announced a Downtown Vision Plan that will take place to provide a solid road<br />

map for recovery downtown.<br />
