Commissioner H&eae stated that the period of tine is smch too
long.
Planner Nulhere added that the Collier County Planning Commission
held their public hearing on February 15, 1990, and forwarded Petition
Z0-89-30 to the Board of County Con~lssloners with a unanimous recom-
nendatton of approval.
Commissioner Shanahan asked Planner Hulhere about the specifics of
the aa~ndaent, which as he understands, could be ~ade for two two-week
segnenta and tf the petitioner cooes before the Board of County
Commissioners, the Board could hake a decision to go to 364 days.
Planner ~tulhere indicated Connlssloner Shanahen Is correct,
he-ever, the petition Is subject to any constraints and stipulations
sa deunded on a caa~-by-ca~ baals.
Coulislon~r Volpe stated ha had th~ ma~ reservation about the
one year period as did Commissioner Hasse, saying he did not see
this as a Ritz Carlton Issue because the amendsent says "temporary
ssles~ sports events, religious events, sad coemunity events.. He
wanted to know what type of use te anticipated that would require the
granting of a one year perslt.
Planner Nulhere did not have any examples, but Indicated the ver-
biage la used only to allow flexibility.
Planning Services I~nsger Ken Baglnskl said there are no specific
sx~plse~ but various situations have arleen In the past, exhibitions
or festivals, extending beyon~ the four week period, and the &nendnent
will provide the Board with the flexibility to extend the tesporary
uss permit.
Nr. George Keller of the Collier County Civic Federation spoke tn
In opposition to the proposed smendsent stating be approves of two and
four ~eek perslta, but Indicated others should not be allowed.
Hr. B&glnskl explained that this amendment is not tailored for the
Ritz Carlton who are ~aktng other arrangenents, and when situations
&rise such as charity events on Narco Island for the Narch of Dines,
Page 5

they will b~ allowed ~ore than a two week permit for their fund
raiser if this amendment is approved.
Conaissioner Hesse Indicated that he feels the Board already has
the ps-er described by this proposed amendment.
Conniesioner Shanahan ~nd~ca~ed tha~ h~ knows Chris,mas tree sales
are longer than 4 weeks and, therefore, flexibility ~e a good 2dea,
~t he feels that one year lo t~ ~ong.
Co~isstoner Volpe suggested striking the lan~age proposed
~ginning with "when approved ~ the Board of County Co~leeloners.
Such s~cia] approvals shall ~ eub~ect to stipulations or additional
constraints deemed necessa~ and appropriate to the re.est. Such sti-
pulations or constraints dee~d necessa~ ~ the ~ard of Cowry
Couissioners ohal~ ~ noted as condltions to the issuance

his desires may gran~ up to two non-rentable, two-week permits
during any calendar year, and the Community Development
A~lnl~trator or his designee ~y grant a non-renewable five week per-
mit, and tea~rary ~rmite ~y ~ al~ed for up to an additional

referenced ~entence could ~ ~truck.
Hr. BagJnski and Hr. Hulhere indlcated that they underst~d ~he
direction o~ the Board regarding the verbiage. Hr. ~ginski indicated

a transition In land uae from higher to lower intensities for proper-
ties that are no longer ideally suited for residential development, he
noted. The petitioner proposes to add a buffer along the outside of
the property to screen tt from adjacent land, he continued° Responses
from all Collier County reviewing agencies have not identified any
conflicts with the Growth Hanagement Plan and on Februar~ 15, lggo,
the Collier County Planning CouJssion recommended approval of the
plan 6/0, Planner Bellows told the Commission. He indicmted that
staff reconnends approval and no correspondence to the contrary has

tional offices.

asked what will happen to the septic system and the drainfia]d?
Hr. Duane indic&ted they will continue to use the exlmting mtruc-
ture but do not anticipate any sewage generation.
Coulesioner Hesse wanted to know If there ia a law regarding the
filling in of the septic area and Nr. Duane Indicated that If it were
hooked up to a permanent sewe~ system, the septic tank will have to be
disconnected and filled.
Conaisstoner Hesse asked tf parking.will be on top of the septic
tank area, to which Mr. Duane referred to the site plan and
deaonotrated that there will be no pavement directly over the septic
tank area.
Coolasloner Volpe questioned if the rezone ia granted, will there
be parking on the existing septic tank and drain field or will it have
to be relocated.

Hr. George Archibald of the Transportation Department acknowledged
that In processing the vacations es requested they would like to
have the new plat and the vacation occur at the same leering or within
the same period of tine.
Nr. Archibald asked the Board of County COmllsetonere to take one
of two neaeures; to defer the Petition until the actual platttng of
Unit Four occurs, or to consider continuing this Item for about three
weeks, et which time the plat for Unit Four may be scheduled. The
appropriate letters of no ob~ectlon from the utilities have been
received and staff has no objection to this Petition, he noted. The
ordinance dictates that the Board should take ltl action concurrently
with the replattlng of the proPerty for the purpose of not leaving
proPerty unplatted, Hr. Archibald said.
Hr. Jack NcKenna of Agnoll, Berber end Brundsge, representing
Monterey Associates, Indicated the Petitioner would like to have the
vacation contingent upon the approval of the plat aa the advertising
does not becose an Issue. The plat should be ready very soon, he
said, as It la currently being reviewed b~ county staff. Hr. NcKenna
slid the plat will not be recorded until ~uet prior to the approval
of Unit Four.

Legal notice having been published in the Naples Daily News on
February 25, 1990, as evidenced by Affidavit of Publication filed with
tbs Clerk, public h-driflg was opened to cons]der Petit]on V-89-11
flied by Nons Spagna, represeflt/ng Harvey Brothers Farms, Inc.
requesting a 744 foot vsrlance from the required front ysrd setback of
1,OO0 feet to 256 feet to p~rmlt a farm labor camp for property
located approximately 1/4 mile west of C.R. 95! and approximately 285
feet north of Vanderbilt Beach Road, ]n Section 34, Totmsh]p 48 South,
Range 26 East, toll]er County, Florida.
Project Planner Robert Lord indic&ted to the Board that the
variance request lo to allow a farm labor camp with 15 mobiJe homes
to provide living accommodations for 8 to 10 tndividua~ farm workers
per mobile ho~e on 5 acres of an 820 acre agricultural farm operation.
He continued, the site is adjacent to and east of two existing metal
farm buildings used for farm material storage and several axJst]ng
mobA~s hom~s that house the farm*m key permonnel.
Planner Lord further Indicated this ]and is zoned A-2 smd
land to the North, East, and West is zoned A-2 also, adding that Jafld
to the South ]s zoned "K' with a few homes, but is mostly vacant land.
Five letters of objection from the neighbors to the south,
strongly objecting because of neg~tlve Impact and adverse affect on
their property value have been received, Planner Lord stated.
Staff found, Mr. Lord said, granting the variance wlJ] not be
in harmony with the genera! intent and purpose of the zoning ordinance
and recommends denial. Ne also noted that the ColJJer County Planning
Commission for~arded Petition V-89-11 to the Board of Zoning Appea~s
w~th a recommendation of denial (5/1).
Mr. Nons Spagfla, representing Harvey Brothers* Farms, presented
p~ctures to the board representing the subject property and explained
Page 15
March 13, 1990
each of the eight pictures which included a typical layout with irri-
gation ditch, rods, plat rows, etc., the immediate areas to the east,
went, and south, and the amount of vi·lbiJity the mite would have from
various locations. Re also noted the variance ia not what it appears
because 145 feet was taken as right-of-way for the VanderbJlt Be·ch
Road Extension, ·nd originally the distance required was 600 feet and
· change to 1000 feet made compliance difficult.
Hr. ipagna indicated that if it were not for the fact that Harvey
Brothers needs a variance due to the close proximity to the re·d, he
would not be in front of the Board° Be also indicated that the
Petitioner would be willing to accept · temporary variance for a
period of five years if the Board as decides.
Nfo Steve Otto, property owner in the described ·rea spoke to the
Board regarding the eyesore he feels the the labor camp will create
and the amount of congestion that will be created on the 951 corridor
in that area.
Mr. Oeorge ~ller, representing the Go]den Gate Estate· C/vic
Association, indicated the association feels th·t this particular spot
la not appropriate and will be an eyesore due to the debrta, etc.
that this particular typ~ of camp creates.
Mr·. Dorothy Box, representing Golden Oats Estate· Area Civic
Association, told the Bo·rd that the ~eabers have ~et and concluded
that the variance should not be granted because the 1000 feet buffer
zone Is vlt&l. She ·leo Indicated there would prob&bly be · violation
of the county easement because the cars from the labor camp ~ould be
parked on Vanderbllt B~ach Road, adding that the Golden Gate Estates
Area Civic Assocltlon believes the petition does not fit with Collier
Countyfs Growth Nanage~ent Plan mad urges the Board to deny the
Petition.

that the ordinance muggeeta setbacks and disbursement requirements so
that there Is no concentration of these businesses in the co.~.unit¥,
and their effects are lessened.
I~, Hatte~er requested that the County review the ~aterial, and
draft an ordinance for the Com~isston*a consideration.
Capt. Jackie K]ine of the Sheriff's Office, advised that the
ordinance ae proposed has been reviewed, and It la found to be vex-~
complete. He stated that the iheriffes Office supports the adoption
of a similar ordinance in Collier County.
Reverend Andrew De~ong com.~ented that it would be an asset for
Collier County to adopt such an ordinance which would keep the com-
munity's standards very high, and it would mak~ a difference relative
to the youth in Collier County. He advised that he te In receipt of a
letter fro~ the $heriff of Lee County, end he says that an ordinance
of this type will eliminate ~any cease of murder, rape, drug dealing,
etc.
Reverend ~e~ong stated that statistics from a pornography study

Nfo Archibald advised that a smaller unit was bid through Bid
· 90-1525. He noted t~t one bid propoea! was received, and 2 letters
fro~ other bidders were received indicating a concern relative to
meeting the specifications. He stated that the one bid that was

~blic Services Administrator O'~nnel] stated that on Feb~a~
27, 1990, the Co.lesion directed Staff to attend a ~rch 1, 1990, auc-
tion for the Hainland ~rtlon of the Co~lin Point pro~rty and
authorized a purchase a~nt not to exceed 15~ of the higher
value of the Bluebill pro~rty ~s of W~em~r, 1989. He advtmed Zhat
Staff was the muccessful bidder at the auction and the property was
~rchased for ,2,075,000.
Nr. O'~nnell lnfor~d that the Clerk of C~rts will Isle
Cert~ficate of Title to Collier C~nty, and noted t~t Staff Is in the
procesm of acquiring ~ll the necessary documents to clear the title to
t~t pro~rty.
Hr. O'~nnell indicated that the pro~rty was f~ded ~de~
real{ocation of f~ds within ~nds 306 and 345. He mtated that there
are ~tmta~lng t~es and fees ~n the a~t of ~195,549 that will be
paid to complete the tr~sactlon.
Mr. O'~m]] stated that the disposition of the Blueblll site

approval from the County Attorney, Staff will come back to the
Commission to obtain authorization to sell the Blueblll site.
In answer to Co~mlssloner Haase, Mr. O'Donnell informed that he Is
optimistic that the County will be able to acquire sufficient funds
fro~ the sale of the Blueblll property to not only cover the cost of
the land acquisition, but also for development costs associated with
the boat launching facility. He stated that ~ore land was acquired
th~n ~t~t was originally anticipated.
Commissioner Sh~mh~nquestloned the ~ount of the November
appraisal of the Bluebill property, to which Nr. O'Donnell affirmed
was $2,350,000.
Hr. O'Donnell stated that there ham been a great demand for
parking at the SR-9SI, Caxambaa, and Bayvie~ boat launching facili-
ties, arid noted .that the additional acreage of the Conklln site will
allo~ the flexibility for addltion~l parking spaces.
Commissioner Shanahan ~entioned that he would like to see the
$R-951 and C~bas ra~p facilities expanded since they are both over
utilized at this point In tl~e.
Comelssioner Volpe questioned the amount of the ~ost recent
appraisal of the Blueblll site? Nr. O'Donnall Informed that one

~mergenc¥ Services Adalnlstrator Reardon explained that at the
Harch 6, 1990, meeting, the Co~mlsslon directed staff to gather infor-
smtlon associated with an Interim Emergency Nedlcal Aid System in the
I~mok~lee area. He stated that the executive summary Identifies some
of the operational problems, operational needs, what may be required
as elements of the system, and the minimum fln&ncIal costs to I~pls-
meat the program.
Page 23

Nr. Reardon advised that the slnlmua cost to start the program Is
approximately 0348,000. He noted that one area that wall provide a
tremendous anount of help to the service delivery for emergenc~ and
~n-~rgency is the elelent of trans~rtatJon. He ~ndJcated that
~y ~ wise to ~e into this syste~ Jncrenentally ~ starting with

hopefully control that the appropriate people are using the shuttle.
Co--Ieeloner Shah·hen questioned whether Staff is prepared to move
on the transportation element of the plan? Hr. Reardon replied that
if the Comsisston so directs, he could get the competition ~nvolved
and arrive at firs figures.
County Hen·get Dorrl]l indic·ted that St·fl la prep·red to do this
during the coming ~eek and suggested that the Commission waive the
normal sealed bid process. He stated that sealed quotes will be
received from local transportation, van, or airport shuttle co~panies
for two trips l~r day, and coordinate the voucher system with the
Clerk's Office to verify ho~ the provider will be paid. He noted that
· system can be ready to go by the end of next week.
Commissioner Shah·hen stated that there is an urgency to have a
plan In place as soon as possible, and he suggested that Staff be
directed to obi·in figures for transportation.
County Nan·get Dorrll] reported that he has had conversations with
the personnel from Collier County Health Services and Naples Community
Hospital. He advised that the hospital ts willing to provide resour-
ces, but he would ·leo like to d·termine what Collier Health Servicesf

Hr. Lttsinger referred to CIE - 20, Policy 1.5.2F, ~d
t~t t~ ~age that ~tll ~ Included In the Plan on April 24, 1990,
Page 26
Hatch 13, 1990
The construction of required facilities scheduled in the County's
Schedule of Capital Improvements prior to October 1, 1994 will not
be delayed, deferred or removed from the Capital Improvement
ile~nt if the facilities have been relied upon for issuance of a
development order.
Mr. Lltalnger stated that there tm a similar Policy relating to
ro~ls on CIE - 22, Policy 1o5.3F. He noted that It takes a plan
a~enda4nt to eliminate, defer, or delay construction of any Category
'&' public facilities. He Informed that the current CIE and the CIE
update that the Commission will be presented with during the next 60
days, Include projects which are Category 'A" and they are dependent
upon the ?th cent sales tax. He indicated that an alternate funding
source, which may be relied upon to fund those projects, has not been
tdel~tifled. He advised that after April 24, 2990, if development
orders ire Issued that are dependent on those projects in the plan,
the County has bought those Improvements.
Nr. Lltslnger related that there ere other options, but Staff Is
not recosmending thee for several reasons. He lnforsed th&t those
options are as follows:
Lo. er the level of Service on the deficient roads: Staff has
previously attempted to lo~r the Level of Service on
951, but this was rebutted by the State. Lowering the Lt~vel
of Service on Local roads would involve lowering the quality
of life in Collier County, and Staff does not believe this
reflects the desires of the community. This would require a
plan aNndment.
Change the way the 'Peak Hour' is measured: This would
require a plan a~endlent.
Use a level of Service averaging system: This has been used
In other Counties, ~tnd would require a plan alendment.
Noratorlusm on State Roads until the State improves the roads
that they are responsible for: Noratorlums cannot be of an
indefinite period. There must be a definite plan to remedy
the situation.
Refocus all non-CIE funding toward CIE deficit projects:
There Is $?? million in deficient State Roads; if all of the
I Hill Capital Fund were rededicated, the deficiency could
not be met.
Do not adopt the amendments agreed to within the stipulated
settleuent agreement: This would result in the edJilnistra-
tire hearing process and the loss of revenues.
Mr. Lltainger advised that Staff is recouendlng that the
Couisston direct the County Attorney's office to prepare for adver-
Page 27

March 13, 1000
timing, ordinances which will establish ASX*o and place a moratorium
on development which negatively impacts the deficient Reade listed
upon the attached exhibit and provide direction as to the scope of the
area to be included within the moratorium.
In answer to Commissioner Volpe, Mr. Litsinger stated that this
item is being presented at this time, in order to meet the necessary
advertising re(pxlrements for public hearings on the ASI and Moratorium
ordinances so that the~ stay be adopted by the April 24, 1990 deadline.
Commissioner Volpe indicated that he has a problem with being
put up against the well without an opportunity to reflect upon what is
being presented. He noted that he feels that the options as presented
by Staff are no options at all= either declare a moratorium around
certsin ASI'e around State Roads, or continue to issue development
orders end commit to $?7 million of improvements without a revenue
mource. He questioned whether any consideration was given to m com-
bination of any of the other alternatives?
Mr. Llteinger informed that other things were considered, and will
be presented later in the meeting when the moles tax presentation is
m~de. He advised that Staff felt that to commit the entire I Mil!
fund ~ould not only create the precedent of funding State smd/or
County Road improvements with property taxes, but it ~ould alas put
the County In & difficult situation regarding its men¥ other Capital
needs that will be faced In future years if mi! those dollmrm were
committed to the CIE.
Chief Transportmtion Plmru~r Perry mdvised that if it im deter-
mined that the ASI approach is to be used, direction is needed as to
the scope of the ASX*e: the acres of land and the areas that will be
covered by e~. He informed that there is presently a conwultant*s
study underway to confirm or deny the deficiencies, and noted that the
preliminary results should be received by mid April.
In anwwer to Commifeloner Volpe, Mr. Perry explained that the
report analyzing the Davis Boulevard corridor has been completed. He
noted that there are several DRX*e that have committed to their fair
Hatch 13, 1990
share of funding provided that there la an area wide funding ecanario,
i.e. the creation of a apecial taxing diatrtct in that area. fie indi-
cated that Berkshire Lakes has provided for a portion of the four-
lantng, and Staff la tn the process of negotiating with the Brettone
Park DRI since they have agreed to participate financially In
extending the existing four-lane Job ao~e distance based on their
contributions. Ne remarked that this will b~ a help to the problee,
but unfortunately, it does not rectify the entire problem, ·nd there
will still be a deficient segment of highway.
Hr. Perry displayed three ~apa depicting three approaches of
dealing with the deficient roadway segments. He informed that the
first approach is the direct access approach where any parcels of land
that have direct access to · particular deficient link ~ould be
affected by a ~oratorium. Re indicated that in the case of arterial
segments, this appro&ch does not satisfy the concurrency a~ndate.
Hr. Perry lnfor~d that the opposite side of the scale Is the
approach that would uae computer ~odel traffic that la coming to and
from developments using e particular arterial highway. He noted that
this takes Into consideration the travel from ~arco Island, up $R-951
to the ~ainland, the Oolden Oats traffic that goes Into Davis
Boulevard, and the North Naple·/Bonit· Springs Bonita B~ach are· that
co~ea do~n U.S. 41 to arrive at services and eaploy~ent centers in the
Naples area. He advised that this accounts for 80~ of the traffic
using these roadways.
In answer to Cosmtaaloner Volpe, Nr. Perry reported that the total
a~ount of acreage that would be impacted by the ~oratorltus ordinance
ia: 2,645 acres in the narrow case; ?8,800 acres in the larger case;
and 33,3?5 acres In the siddle ground approach.
Nr. Perry indicated that Staff believes that the ~edtum range
approach la ~ore defensible than the first approach, and less defen-
sible than the third approach.
County ~lanager Dorrlll stated that this approach includes the
compromise concept relating to alternate corridors and · credit would
Page 29
Na~ch ~3. 1990
be given to 50~ of those people If some corridor trip could be taken
other than those that are below the Level of Service.
Mr. Perz-y stated that there Is also a concern relative to the
Bonita Beach Road corridor that Is west of Vanderbtlt Drive, and noted
that this Is presently at a deficient level. He reported that this
megBent is currently funded in the Capital Improvement Element, but
the Transportation Department is considering removing the funding for
that project and relocating to other projects, due to the lack of
funding on the ~ee County side. He remarked that this would put this
section of P, or~ita ~ach Road In the deficient category, and a sora-
torlum would have to be established there*.
Nr. Perr~ stated that the medium approach identifies the fact that
approximately 401~-45~ of the traffic using the impacted link begins or
ends within the areas ss colored on the map, and the larger approach
identifies spproxi~tely 80~ of the locations where the traffic is
coming from or going to, using these links. He related that in the
concurrency ordinance draft which Is going through the public hearing
process, there is the built-in flexibility for the Commission to
choose whatever Is most appropriate for a particular road segment
Where the Ali's are needed, fie Informed that In the call of
Vanderbllt B~ach Road or Bonita Beach Road where s very narrow
approach is identified, and medium access concerns, there My be a
ver~ narrow ASI. He stated tJ~ut, In the case of a larger arterial
hIgb~ay with a greater surface area or a collector road ss beginnings
L~d ends adjacent to arterials, there may be the third type of scope.
He pointed out that there is ver~ little impact upon the City of
Nsplee with the middle approach. He noted that Davis Blvd. corridor
and the East Trail over]ap, and they would be affected by either
were It created. He stated that both of these areas and the North
Naples ares tn the larger approach encompass much, if not al! of the
City of Naples, since it is a great attractor of traffic from the
OO05.1
Page 30
March 13~ 1990
outlying areas of the County. Re related that when the Ctty approves
an off]ce or commercial building, there are people from the outs]de
co~lng to that particular loc&tion, and soae of the blame has to be
put on the attractor as well aa the producer. He Indicated that the
same example ~ay be applted to the Collier/Lee border.
In answer to Co--lmmtoner Volpe, Nr. Perry informed that there are
no par~ters In the Growth Hanagement Plan to establish ASIea, but
there are general concepts, i.e. the balloon approach, but tn other
cases where there Is no beginning and end of a roadway where the
balloon approach stay be inappropriate, a different approach may be
necessary. He indicated that the ordinance should be left without
specific para~eters since different roads require different lustlflca-
tlonm for these areas.
Commissioner Shanahan questioned ~hether a plan amendment would be
required If, I.e. the moderate approach Is chosen today, or does it
become the standard? Hr. Perry advised that the application of the

Co~-Imaloner ihanahan questioned whether a plan amendment would be
requlrad if the district or corridor approach were selected? Nr.
Perry informed that because the plan does not specify a mpectflc
sppro&ch to be used, and to try ~nd adopt an ordinance that doem say
It shall be measured by I slle on either side of the roadway, an
~ndment uy be required.
Commissioner Hasae questioned whether the ASI would be alleviated
If · ro~d systen were isproved In a certain area? Hr. Perry advised
that after 1994, the four year wlndo~ shrinks to s three year windo~,
but if the funding for that particular pro~ect is within the Capital
I~provement Element, credit Is given for that particular are·, and the
mor&toriu~ ~ould never go Into place. He stated that If funding beco-
mes available six months into the ~oratorlu~, the moratorium ordinance

~m2d tl~n b~ re~aled, and everything ~ould go beck to normal.
In anm~er to Coulesioner Volpe, Mr. Perry related that part of
the con~ltant'~ ~co~ of ~ork ~s to Jdentlf~ those .ca.urea, that
l~le~nted at a ~re reasonable approach ~y fix Intersection or add
tu~ l~es, etc., ~hich could provide cap~clty In the ~t$~e. He
Indicated t~t an l~r~e~nt of c~paclty at 10~ or 15~ ~y only
one ~$tlo~l year, ~fo~e the situation get~ beck to where It
He noted t~t the ~ale~ tax Isle ~s not a ~arantee that c~ be

~oa~ay Jn o~de~ to take advantage of the concu~en~
CmJasione~ Vo]~ ca,led ~ttentJon to Option t2, to place a ~a-

p~ob%ea ~ the plan ~n~nte on A~J~ 24. He advised that tf these
p~o~ectm a~e ]eft in the CIE, and deve]op~nt o~de~e continued to
ts~ed wtth~t the identified funding e~rce ~o~ the aa]es tax
~enue, the County has committed to build those p~o~ectm.
C~tsmioner 5sunders stated t~t he does ~t believe t~t Option

contln~ to ~ Issued on road seg~nte ~lth deficiencies ~lth the hope
t~t t~ sales tax ~lll ~ appr~ed ~ the voters In Nove~r. He
l~lcated t~t he feels t~t Option ~2 Is probably the only thing that

co~ ~ck to the Coulsston for consideration of a ~ratort~ ordt-
~nce, as ~ell as what other counties have done In ter~ of defining
~l's, and go ~lth Option a2, It does not preclude the ~ard at ~y
~lnt In tl~, when a road seg~nt ~co~e an Issue, to do
needs to ~ done. He Indicated that this would give so~ flexibility
~t ~ld not require the County to laprove a road ~tth~t any f~dtng
s~rce available as Option ~1 does.

Hr. Alan Reynolds of Hlleon, Hiller, Barton, $oll & Peek, Inc.
stated that a substantial nuaber of the tripe into Naples will be sade
by p~ople who have their residences In the County and their employment
tn the City, or are going to the City for ao~e other purpose. He
commented that if Collier County imposes a ~oratorium unilaterally
the City te under no obligation to likewise Impose this upon the City.
He stated that the County le obligated to provide the earvicea and
facilities at an acceptable level, and the City te the beneficiary, to
a certain extent of the employeea who live in Collier County. He
Indicated that if he were a resident of the City of Naples, and
looking at this p4rticular issue, he might be encouraging the County
to take a hard line atance on a ~oratorlum since it allows additional
cap. city to be available for the City at the expense of the County.
Hr. Nr~molde noted that the Executive Sumry Identifies ? or 8
different options and each has been dinieeed ae one that ia not
viable for one reason or another. He indicated that the ~ain reason
Is that it would require an amendment to the Growth ~nageMnt Plan,
and noted that this ia not a valid reason not to have further
discussions about so~e of the alternatives. He consented that gro.~th
~anageMnt and concurrency ere not issues that will go away any time
soon, He said that ha does not feel that any of the options solve the
problasm, and it will probably take a combination of all of the.. He
atatad that the State Imposed growth ~anagement, but did not co.att to
fund growth ~an&ge~ent, and n,,~ the County la left with the task of
the lmple~entation. He Indicated that whether it ia the sales tax, ad
valorem taxes, etc., growth ~anages~ent cannot be lmpoaed without the
co--lt~ent to fund lt. He stated that If Option #2 ia a foregone
conclusion, Option tl should also be expanded and endorsed by the
Co--lesion to co--it and fund growth ~anageaent.
Hr. Reynolds provided a hand out to the Conieeton (not provided
to the Clerk"a Office) describing how an AS! ~ay be eetabltehad. Ha
noted that he also presented this to the Collier County Planning
Co~leelon a fe~ weeks ago. Ha stated that he believes that
Page 33 ~
Hatch 13, 1990
sta.~tarda should 134 placed In the Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance
mo that the general extent of the A$I*I can be forcasted. He
suggested that thio be considered aa an alternative.
Hr. ReTnolds indicated that Hr. Perr~ identified three techniques
for Identifying the ASI*I, and suggested that collector and arterial
roads be treated differently since they have different criteria. He
indicated that there should be different ne thodology for an arterial
road, i.e. State road versus a County collector Road.
Commissioner Sounders stated that If there lo a complete nora-
torlum on new construction in Collier County there will still be more
and more traffic on those roads from Ft. Laudardale, Ft. I~tero, otc..
He noted that he does not believe that it lo fair to i~enallze o large area
of prolP~rty owners because of increased traffic on those State Roads.
He noted that he belleve8 there vfould be Justification If an ASI ts
defined In a narrow fashion around the 8tats Roads. Re affirned that
tf Option ~2 to selected, and a segekent falls below the itandards, the
Commission will then have to n~lce the decision to either raise rtve-
nu~s, e~t up a taxing district, otc.
Hr, Perry/ Informed that he has reviewed the language aa suggested
by Hr. Re~nolda, and noted that from a traffic analysis Itandpolnt,
his numbers do not atop the degradation of the Level Of Service and
the roads continue to get worse.
Hr. Oeorge Keller coeueented that ha understands that itnce there
are an ~any units on the books, the County lo obligated to provide the
facilitlos for those units, a~d if they ara not provided, &d valorem
taxes will need to be Increased to take care of them. He indicated
that he does not believe that the State Legislature can impose thio on
the County. He stated that predicating decisions on the salel tax to
ridiculous. He questioned whether the County lo responsible to pro-
vide the Infrastructure for all the units that are on the books today?
County Attorney Cuyler advised that it is not how nan¥ units have
been approved, but rather the impact of the development orders that
have been issued on the roadway, and In that case, the infrastructure
Page 34
#aroh 1:~ SgQO
hal to be there concurrent with those deve]opaent orderm. He noted
that development orders can continue to be 18sued regardless of the
nunber of approved POD's as long as the Lave! Of Service Is maintained
for that infrastructure orJ the roa~aya.
Hr. Keller stated that he doe. not believe that Collier County has
even begun to analyze what the Iapact fees should be to provide for
develol~aent. Re noted that in the case of Davis Boulevard, It $3,000
p~r unit was charged, there would be no problea, and the sue applies
to all ne~ develops~ent on Narco and Narco Shores. Re added that
growth mhould pay for growth.
Hr. Bill Barton explained that the State of Florida has ~ade the
decision to lapo~e the growth ~anage~ent system on Collier County. He
Indicated that they have also ~ade the decision to default on their
responsibilities to fund their ~ State Roads, and therefore,
passed along a taxing Issue to the County and the City. He remarked
that the decision that the Co. lesion sakes relative to State roads
will have a draaattc aspect on Collier County. Be stated that the
County ~ust fund growth unageaent, and the State Roads cannot be
excluded. Be said that to create ~oratorluss around State Roads will
not solve the problems for a very long period, and noted that If those
funds are not found by the County, the moratortuas will be Indefen-
sible In court, and they will have to be ellatnatsd.
Hr. Barton stated that If the citizens of the coountty ars really
opposed to funding growth unage~nt, he believes that when they
realize 127 square al]es will be affected by the aoratorlua, he feels
that they will vote differently on the various ts~es at the polls In
November.
Hr. Barton reported that the ANrIcan Association of State
~igt~ay And Transportation Officials (ASHTO) recently cor~ucted a
nation-wide study that sho~a that the volu~e of traffic on highways Is
Increasing at the rate of 5X per year, excluding growth factors. He
noted that sore people own cars, and transportation lo aovJng away
free rail and to truck, and transportation Is moving away from buses
Harch 13, 1990
~nd trains to the suto~blle. Ha explained that he feels the 5~
figure is quite 1o~ In Collier County, since regardless of what hap-
pens In growth, the tourlas will continue to Increase. In addition,
he Indicated that ~any of the roads In the soratorlum area will con-
tInue to b~ affected by l~e County growth, He noted that the City of
Naples .ay or ~ay not enter Into an tnterlocal agreement and their
continued Issuance of developlent orders will continue to III)act those
roads. He remarked that since DRI's are exespt, they will continue to
lspact the roads. Xe advised that a ioratorlml of any kind will not
stop the increased areas of ASI'a; the tspact fees for the moratorlusl
area will b~ eliainated, resulting In a decrease In the sources of
revenue which are being anticipated to lest the Capital Iaprove~ent
Ble-.ent; the roads continue to get worse which increases the area of
ASlfs, and reduces further the Income from lspact fees. Re stated
that If construction of those roads are delayed for several years, It
can be assured that the dollars that are earaarked tn the Capital
lmproveMnt Element today w111 be drasatlcally Increased through the
inflation process.
Hr. Barton explained that he believes the Coutaston needs to .~ake
a decision to co--it to growth .~lnage~ent, and rely on the sales tax
passing, he, ever, tn order to fall safe, Staff should advise during
the next three ~onths ho~ these lsprove~ents lay be funded In the
event that the salsa tax does nnt psis.
Coauilssioner Saunders stated that Sr. Barton's couents are elo-
quent and persuasive, but he disagrees. H~ noted that It sounds great
to say that the County Is going to fund growth lanageaent, but there
are only a couple of ways to do this: the local option sales tax, and
If that falls, possibly other funding sechanla-- free the state, and
If that does not work, the only other alternative Is ad valorem tues.
He indicated that he believes that In the real world, the County w111
be required to adopt a ~oratortus ordinance, and to either tlpose a
Ioratorlu~, or finding a funding source. He stated that he Il
suggesting that the Coulasion allow the greatest degree of flexlbI-
Page 36
O00GO
Narch 13, 2990
]lty in the way the ordinance wJl! be drafted.
Nr. Barton stated that his concern is that the Ce.mission Is about
to esbark upon taking steps of a ~oretorJum, and this will be the cos-
· ence.ent of plunging collier County Into a governmental induced
recession. He noted that the ]argero .~re successful developers who
can develop the Pelican Bays, Lely Resorts, and the Grey Oaks will
find better places to develop with less risks.
Attorney 3tm Scarborough, representing k'hJaperlng Pines, Znc.,
indicated that he concurs with Hr. Barton'. re~arks relating to the
philosophy of adopting ~oratoriusa. Re stated that he feels that the
adoption of a ~oratorius Is the .sst drastic step that the Cosmisslon
should consider. He Indicated that the DCA is dictating specifics as
to ~ Collier County's Plan will be adopted, and the State refuses to
fund Its ~ obligations. Re advised that he feels that Staff's
Option ~6 is not necessarily an unreasonable alternative. He noted
that he would rather be in court with the State of Florida rather than
with the land owners who have better cause to be disturbed, if the
State Is not forced to take asea ~eaeure of Its responsibility. He
said that he feels that consideration should be given to the possibi-
lity of Incorporating an a~nd~ent to the Plan that is based upon seas
funding through the State for the required infrastructure. He noted
that if the County does not allow the Level of Service to deteriorate,
the State will never spend any ~oney.
Attorney Scarborough renarked that the Concurrency Ordinance as
presently drafted states that no development orders wll! be Issued
unless the Infrastructure ts In place. Re stated that lo his opinion,
the only thing the ~oratoriu~ would do, would be to cast In concrete
~h~t the ASI was, and this Is so, thing that Staff did not want to do.
He said that the County la not obligating Itself by falling to enact a
~oratorlu~, or to construct laprovem~nta to the State roads unless
specific d~velopment orders are approved baaed upon those roads being
completed within the 5-Year Road Improvement Plan. He stated that he
O00ol
March 15, 1990
would lika to ese clear direction from the Couleelon to the Staff to
explore alternative sources, and squeeze as nuch am possible out of
the State.
Mr. Sewell Corkran stated that tf the Intent and ~urpose of the
Public Facilities Ordinance had been In place the past 5-10 years,
there would be os discussion today of a aoratorJue. He stated that
when a con~oeJnlua has been coapleted, closings are nade, the new
occupants co~e tn and turn on the w&ter, tt should be there. He noted
that when these sam folks get Into their cars and go out to drive,
the~ should be able to be utilize roads that are in reasonably good
condition. He said the facilities ~ust be there and ready when they
need to be used. He stated tha~ the honey for the facilities as iden-
tified In the ordinance should be directed I~f nanagelent Into
contracts to deliver the facilities Io th&t they are available. He
stated that he Is confident that the Conalsslon and the coemunlty will
cam up with the necessar~ funding, and his plea Is that when the road
portion of the ordinance ts being considered, the public Interest will
be kept in lind.
es, Deput~F Clerk McClenath~n replaced Depu~l, Clerk at this tA~ else
Couissloner Saunders noted there are two very extren~ approaches,
the first of which Is to continue approving developnent orders
which will result In funding reade for which there is no funding
source. This, he said, would be Irresponsible. He said the other
approach Is to utilize this Issue as a nechanlee to establish a very
broad, almost county-wide, aoratorlun. This, he continued, veould be
Irresponsible also.
Co,,~tsstoner Iaunders indicated the only available approach In hie
opinion is to go with option No. 2, and prepare sn ordinance which, in
effect, could be utilized to inpose a ~or&torlu~ In a very narro~ area
around stats roads, and to direct staff to define the areas of signi-
ficant lapact on state roads as narrmely as Is reasonable, recognizing
that state roads are a little different than county roads.

Ms. Sue Filson, Administrative Assistant to the Board, stated that
the Budget Director is requesting that the Board he au·liable the week
of June 18 - 22, for Budget Workshops in preparation of ·dopting the

Commissioner Hasse Sndic·ted July 3 thru 24th would seem to be

Contssioner Volpe said there are many Important issues and the
entire Board should not be on vac·tlon at one time, but could neet

tinued, if the Board goes on v·c·tion, they will loose four Tuesd·ys

tJnu~, is schools and the ten year capital Jmpr~e~nt needs, which
are ,175 ~1111on including county and state roads, ~allm, law enfor-
ce~nt facilitlem, and ~ach re~rJeh~nt.
Hr. ~rrlll l~lcated the purc~se of the sensitive lands through

give the County Hanager's Office further direction.
Assistant County Hansgsr HcLeeore said that the males tax cossit-
tee has developed a plan that will achieve everyone's goals and will
b~ a balanced prograa that the co..m~nlty can accept for s referendos
in ~htch ali interests will be served. He outlined the benefits as
follows:
1. Funding of the growth s~anage~ent plan.
2. Quality of life standards in the comsmnity being aain-
tsined0
30 Funding of Non-CIE projects.
4. Benefits of ~onetary savings.
Be said If this plan is equated to the alternative of property
taxes and/or assess~nts there will be a relief of $263 nlllton, and,
he continued, the opportunity to reduce the one alii fund by
886,300,000 is gained by stabilizing the cap at 812 ·lllion. In addi-
tion, he said, constmption of public dollars ~hen using cash flow var-
mss twenty-five (25) year bonds for school i·prove~nts a~rants to a
$230 alllton s~vi~gs and ~o by using cash flow free sales tax rather
than · twenty (20) year bond, another $120 million could be saved for
· cunulatlve total of $?00 ·1111on.
Hr. 14cI~ore indicated that the costs related to using the sales
tax will be $541 ·llllon and 28~ should be deducted for the portion
Imld by non-residents of Collier County, which leaves the total out-
of-pocket expenses to the citizens of the county at spproxiaately $390
million. In teru of a net benefit gained, the qualitative issues
will be acco·pllshed and the qu&lity of life In Collier County w111 be
~alntained.
Co-~tssloner Hasse suggested that at the March 24th ~etlng the
followlog lteas should be discussed;
1. The tourist development tax.
2. The 5 and 5 year referendtm option.
3. Expenditure of ~oney if the ~eferendu· passes.
Coamissioner Hesse suggested the Sepia·bar primary for the Tourist
Development Tax and the November prlnary for the one cent sales tax.
Co~lssloner S~nahan reiterated the re.eats of Coulsstoner
regarding the 28~ being verified, as presented

~.i:! presentation, the Tourist Development Tax being · part of a package
subject to a vote In September, and to hear additional discussion on
the 5 year/5 year referendum option plan. Co-~lesioner ihanahan
requested that Narco Island be exempt from the Tourist Development Tmx
because their items are already fundpd.
Nr. NcL~ore indicated that hie concern Is that the revenue fron
the t~x might be overstated, and the county will have to be very care-
ful not to over spend in order to keep reserves at the rata discussed.
· ~. He continued that he does not see ho~ the tim rrm could be lees
than ten years. At the end of 10 years, he said, the county will be
beck on a cash flo~ basis.
Co-~Iesloner Volpe stated that ha feels this ts really planning
for the future, because, as he understands the proposal, the 'crunch'
will co~e in the 6th, ?th, end 8th years, and the County needs to be
usured that the funds will be available at that tiN.
Nr. Nc~e~ore indicated that he will ~ake the chart available at
the public hearing and said there will be t~o 'crunch' periods, adding
that the first will be l~dlately, and the peak will he In the ?th
year because of early project delays, which will bulge In the second
ftys year period. ~e Indicated that tt will take 10 years of revenues
to solve the problems.
Co--leeloner Yelps questioned the earlier 3 year budget, and Mr.
· .~<' NcLe~ore indicated that ha thinks the 3 year 'scenario' is on the
~:i b~sie of renewal, if needed, ~,ot ae · total ~easure.
Nr. HcL~ore said he feels that everyone should understands ho~
this is going to happen, and cited an example with $30 nilllon in pro-
~ects being updated to Include ne~ road segments coning up next south.
Ce.missioner Yelps questioned whether operating and ~atntenance
costs have been included, and Hr. HcLe~ore assured him those costs
will be included, and added that the cost Involved in building Jails
ties into the correction study due to the operating costs for these
facilities. He continued, saying, because of cost, he supports

Hr. Dudley Goodlette, Chatlman of the Se]es Tax Coutttee, thanked
the commission, the school board, the city council of Naples and
Everglades for selecting those who had the opportunity to serve.
He
/ consented on the referendum of the bed ~ax or tourist development
t~ that the conittee recomnds for referendum in September. Mr.
Goodlette Indicated the Couittee discussed the allocation being
reco~nded by staff, which is different then the one from the
Committee. He said he feels what staff has recomnded ~ore clearly
reflects the needs that were provided to the contttee.
Co~lssioner Hesse asked Mr. Ooodlette how his coulttee looked
et the recommendations,and Hr. Goodlette indicated that the coutttee
considered the position of staff and the needs of the County as well
as ho~ it will tsq~ct the schools. He indicated there was a great
deal of discussion, but the Board of County Commissioners should
determine the percentages based on need.
Comlasloner Volpe questioned the basis of allocation for the city
of Naples?
Nr. NcLe~ore indicated the Coutttee used the prior administra-
tion's sub~loelofl of projects ~hJch was unco--ltted and the fl~re
~tch was recom~ed was the ~rcentage of ~llars r~lred to ~r-
fo~ t~se projects that met the criteria the coulttee let. He
further stated that the committee cut $104 million In projects from
tha Initial list, adding that the projects that were funded ~et the
four service areas. He said the ?.75~ will fund the projects that
relate to the four priority areas as outlined by the sales tax cosmlt-
Co~tsstoner Volpe asked if the only f~mded projects will be
drainage for 5 years for $4.5 allllon, a~d ~ach ren~rll~ for 812
million.
Mr. NcLe~ore indicated that the Oordon River Bridge is included
~d tbelr project is es follo~s:
$6.5 million for state roads

Col. John K. Beet)e, Jr. President of l~kewood CIvic Aeon.,
Executive Vice President of the Greater Naples Civic Assn., and aember
and spokesman for the Presidents Council of the Naples Property
0wharfs Assn., currently representing 11,000 homeo~rners, indicated
they regard the one cent sales tax as a key element in rupporttng the
gTowth management ordinances and recomuexxds approval of these ordinan-
ces without delay. He continued that the use of the sales tax to fund
the Infrastructure is the fairest method of paying because It will
relieve the property owners of the burden of paying the entire cost
and visitor's and residents who do not pay property tax will also be
contributing.
Col. Beebe asked what the Board will do If the voters turn down
the sales tax and the budget has already been approved, would the
Board raima ad valores taxes, or, would they order moratorJua on new
conmt~uctlon?
Col. Beebe expressed other concerns regarding the funding of 867
million In state projects between 1990 and 1994. and 859 aillion bet-
~en 1995 &nd 1999. The question, he Indicated, is whether the miata
will actually reimburse the county for this money or will the funds be
Jeopardized?
Commissioner Halle Indicated that the DOT ~lll not give the county
any guarantees of reisbursement, but that negotiations are Possible.
Nr. I~cl, emore and Co~liSSioner Yelps concurred by saying that the
reimbursement My not come In money but as a trade-off, on a value for
value contract.
Col. Beebe indicated that this light be a suitable arrangement aa
long as the Interest of the cltlzen*s of Collier County are protected.
Re inquired, if the tax is proposed for 10 years, could Dr. Richey
live with a 5 year tax If the second 5 years was turned down? The
$choo! Board needs the funds to ~ove forward, he continued, and,
questioned if the Board has considered the fact that if the tax
referendu~ for 10 years ts turned down, it will cost $100,000 of tax-
payers money to conduct another referendul in 5 years.

Col, Keeb~ Indicated the Pres/dent's Council endorses the referen-
dum only if the safe guards as lasted An the ad hoc couittee report
are aade an Integral and irrevocable part of the sales tax referendma
issue. Both the Greater Raples CIvic Assn. and the Lakewood ClvAc
Assn. ~upport the ad hoc report aI~.
~fhen the issue is franed for the voters, it should be worded so
that the voter knows he is chooalng to pay for infrastructure by the
1¢ sales tax if he votes in favor of the tax, and if he (the voter)
votes agalnat It, he (the voter) wll! pay as much or ~ore In Increased
ad valorun taxes, Col. Beebe saAd. He continued by sayAng that the
sales tu, aa pre~ented t~ the ad-hoc connittee represents the beat
way to fund the capital infrastructure needs for the next ten years.
Col. Beebe encouraged the Board to educate the taxpayers An
understanding water shortages, traffic congestion, beach erosAon and
unacceptable degradation of the quality of life In the Naplea area
which could occur if the tax la defeated. We aust, aa a cosmunity, he
continued, co~e together and support the one-cent salsa tax, and the
Board should lead the campaign for ~upport.
Dr. Rlchey addressed the hoard and presented a prepared statement
Nr. Nike Slayton, Administrator of the Big Cypress Basin Board,
offered his support for the one-cent sa~es tax and also Bade a request
that the CREW project be included, addlng that the CREW project
be Investigated by the Coral Coulttee in July with reference to
adding it to the Coral List. He said the CRE14 project's monetar~ need
Is $10 Billion over the next 4-5 year period.
Dr. Frae Stallings, representing the Conservancy, indicated he
spanking An ~u~rt of the CR~ T~t ~nd Ac~l~ltlon on the
of ecol~tcal value, ~ater contro~ and w~ter ~upp~y am~ctm.
Dr. ~talllng~ l~lcated that the Conservancy ~ not taken a ~tand

to Indicate that the Everglades City Council supports the one-cent
tax, and also indicated that the council will be happy with an
equitable percentage.
Hr. Frank Jones, City Nanager of the City of Naples, related the
position of the City Council by ~a'~ that they recognize the
sales tax option is available to the county to ~eet Growth Hanagement
needs. The city has developed a plan and ~ust look at alternatives
such as user fees, etc., he said. The City, in response to a request
from the County developed a five year plan for capital costs, he con-
tined, but not a 10 year plan; therefore, the plan before the Board
represents five years and General needs.
Hr. Jones pointed out the distribution will fall back to an
lntsrlocal agree·ant and the city is prepared to negotiate such an
agree~nt, reassuring the county that the cities projects will meet
the criteria for sales tax usage.
Co~nlmmioner Volpe lndlcsted that the voters need definitions for
projects to be funded and the City of Naples will have to specifically
define the ne·dm before the referendum.
Co~missioner Shanahan added that the Board should ~aks the deci-
sion and an lnterlocal agreement should be worked out with the city.
Commissioner Volpe inquired whether the city has a fall back pro-
vision in case ao~ of their projects do not get funded or the sales
tax does not pass and Hr. Jones Indicated that the city has such a plan.
Hr. 0eorge Keller Indicated that the figures change fro~ ~oment to
~o~ent, and according to fha State Department the county will collect
8521,657,742.00, but the countytm list totals to $541,902,000, which
is · short fall of $20 aillion. He said the county's figures show
$322,440,000 for the total list and $276.478,000 will be the countyts
share wtlich ~eana shortfall of 845,962,000. Hr. Keller noted that the
countytm list is bigger than the revenue that will be collected and
indicated that the sales tax is not a reliable source of
Hr. ~sller counted that he realm the sales tax had a 50/50
chance of passing, but people are disturbed about more taxes. He

N~rch 19, 1990
noted that t~o counties In Florida are reneging on bond Issues and he
doee not want to see Collier County In the ease position.
Commissioner ¥olpe requested that the public hearing on this
~tter be put off until after April 3.
The Public Hearing on the AS! do~s not have a specific date,
County Attorney Cuyler indicated, and Nr. NcLe~ors asked to have the
public hearing on the Sales T~x prior to the A$I establlshsent.
Co-missioner Hasse Inquired as to the date the Board wants to
utablieh and C~lssloner Volpe indicated that he would like the
hearing after the 3rd of April. Commissioner ihanahan suggested April
10, 1990, durlr~ the regular meeting.
Nr. Keller added that he still supports a referendun aa long as
the public Is advised and educated.

Utilities Administrator Arnold stated that Items 901 and 9D2 are
consultant selections for utility projects. He noted that six firms
will ~ake presentations relative to RFP #89-1503.
Hr. Ed Edwards of B~yle Engineering Introduced members of his
teas, P~essrs. Vernon Lynch, lan Natson of Ross Technology, and Paul
lk~dlon. Re advised that Boyle is a national firm, and has been
serving i~ut~est Florida since 1981. He stated that the Ft. Myers
office was opened in 1985, Is a full service office Including planning
and pilot scale testing, design, and cad system construction manage-
~ent. ~e Indicated that all ~embrane technology capabilities are done
at the Ft. Hyers office.
Hr. Edwards Informed that his firm has completed projects in Ft.
Nysre, Sarasota County, and Veto Beach. He advised that the team
Staff will be dealing with has the expertise In membrane technology,
and there will be no middle a~anage~ent. X~ Indicated that the sub
consultants and the reviewing agencies are local, and everyone
involved Is experienced In Implementing a project of success. He
Indicated that Boyle will neet their commitments on time, within
budget and to the satisfaction of Collier County.
In answer to Coulasioner Rases, Hr. Lynch advised that the Veto
Beach plant Is a reverse osmosis system with membrane softening. He
lnfor~ed that the membranes that ars used In softening are not
suitable for ~esoftening.

Zn response to Coniasioner Shanahan, Mr. Watson stated that
~embrane softening units do soften the water, and blending the water
wll! result in acceptable potable water directly to the user.
Conissioner Goodntght questioned what the team would reco~end
for the excess wastewater? Hr. Edw-.rf~ replied that in Ft. Myers, the
reject Nater Is being softened and used for the irrigation of golf
courses, and recomaended that the eau thing be done in Collier
County.
Cmisstoner Goodnight stated that if one of the alternatives will
ultimately be to go to a R.O. system, she would hope that the
Commission and Staff will have enough foresight so that the plant that
will be built no~ will hold that capacity. She questioned whether
there will be sufficient tl~e to give Boyle enough notice to add that
facility to the building7 Hr. Arnold advised that NlsaJJer &
Associates have been previously retained to do the three dimensional
~odeling on the Lo, er Tamiami Aquifer in Golden Gate Estates, and that
has been Identified, thus far, as Collier County's source of water to
the year 2000. He Indicated that the concurrent teat drilling to look
at deeper zones will sho~ whether there ts the capability to pu~p
reject water in that area. He stated that the County needs to get
water on line before the and of another season, or there mmy be a
serious deficit situation. Ha noted that when the consultants co~
aboard there will be the professional expertise to discuss these
things during the design process.
Mr. Edwards stated that t~m County has ~ade the right decision
with regard to ~e~branes, and noted that the flexibility goes from
ttmre.
Commissioner Hesse asked If the pumping will be equipped to bring
up higher pressures for E.G. systems? Nr. Watson replied afftr-
~tivsly, noting that the Itt, es ~lll Im the ~a~ ~nd th~ volumes going

ers currently working on the completion of an R.O. Plant and wellfteld
Jn Venice, Florida.
Hr. ~oore informed that his ft~ vtll produce a ~lllty product
t~t ~ets the needs of the County, and ~111 ~et the tl~ and ~dget
c~mtraints of the project. He stated that he understands the project

firu that has been fortunate enough to have been short-listed on both
the Treatment Plant and the WellflSldo He stated that tf his firm is
selected for both projects, the County will realize a cost savings of
be~een 5H and 2OH.
Commissioner Goodnight questioned the length of tiaa Involved tn
designing the plant? Hr. Hoers replied that the actual design of a
aJallar project on a fast-track effort took approxtsmtely 4 months.
He reported that the 4 MGD module system Is currently on CDM~s con-
p~lter 8fld he believes that the design could be cospleted within a 3-4
month time frame.
Nr. Wllllas Town,end of Coflaoer Townsend & Associates (CT&A)
stated t~t this is one of the most iaportant utility decisions that
the Commission will ~uke. He informed that the teas of CT&A and Stone
& #sharer Includes 13 key professionals with IZ5 years of cosblned
experience. He noted that hie firs has worked on the County's water
plant exparmton, a nusber of waatewater plant expansions, and a nusber
of pipe line projects which have been performed on an extremely tight
time schedule due to the rapid growth of Collier County, and all the
projects have been coapleted within the construction budget set forth.
He explained that CT&A understands what Staff expects of an engineer,
the quality and timeliness of the work, and how they like things done.
Nr. Bill Conlon of Stone & Webster, advised that his firs
celebrated their lOOth year in business this past year, and was
recently cited b~ Business Weuk as one of the fires in the United
8tares with the most assets. He informed that his firs has been
involved with project studies ranging free 400,000 OD to 92 HOD, and
rioted that Pale Beach County has recently requested that Stone &
#abater review the design of another engineering firs of what will
goon be the world's largest sesbrane softening plant consisting of 28
J~3D. He stated that he was the first person to design a low pressure
reverse osmosis brackish water plant which resulted tn a 40~ savings
to the industry energy wise. He indicated that the brackish water

:plant takes the waste free the concentrate under pressure and reco-
vers the energ~ that ts sill! there by turning a turbine backwards In
generating po~er. He explained that he was the first person involved
in using deep well Injection on two different projects for reverie
oseo~le.
Mr. Conlon related that he was Involved with the design of the
mbrane ~oftening plant tn Pelican Bay, and he also worked for the
senbrane smnufacturer that produced the first softening senbrane. He
advised that he is currently designing the Marco Island R.O. Plant
which ia a very difficult project since the water la degradattng et
?0~ In a 10 year period.
Mr. Con]on reported that the proposed plant hen been laid out with
8 M~D initially, and ultimately an additional 4 MGD. He stated that
tbs plant will be constructed In e ~odular fashion noting that the
lelbrane building will consist of tNo stories and will contain the
R.O. equipment. He Indicated that a scrubber and concentrated dllpo-
I~l ~11 will be used to provide for irrigation or whatever lathed Is
approved for disposal.
In an~eer to Comilaelonar ihanahan, Mr. Conlon advised that he
believes that the concentrate disposal should be nixed with the
waatewater effluent and supplemented with other well water for golf
course Irrigation. He reported that he would recownd deep well
Injection aa a last resort since It la the ~oat expensive way to go.
~r. Charles Gear, Project Director, Klale¥-Horn and Associates,
Itu:. explained that It la very llport~nt for the Couleilon to look at
the firm th4t has the beet recent experience, the people associated
with that fire who have the experience, and who has th~ beet technical
approach.
Nr. Deer advised that [Inlay-Horn has had operating senbr~ne
plante In Florida for 20 years, and these plants are producing good
~ater today. ~e noted that there ts a 12 NOD plant under construction
0010.1

in Jupiter and will be on line within a fe~ months, and a 4,5 NOD
plant tn 14~rtln County is currently In the design phase. He Informed
that u rapidly as menbrane technology ts changing, If a firm does not
have m plant that is currently goin9 on, they are falling behind. He
mdvlsed that a water shortage wam fast approaching in the Jupiter
area, and without Innovative solutions, they were facing a moratorium.
He reported that as of today, the plant will start up In a fe~ ~onths.
Nr. Oeer stated that he believes that the same approaches that
~re used In Jupiter can be used In Collier County, and will save 11
month~ and 1.5 million dollars. He advlmed that his flr~ does the
process design, ~hereas, ~any fir~s simply write a perfor~mnce spec
and then turn It over to a vendor systems house who does the design
conmtruct process. He Informed that ell the details of the design are
done tn Klmley-Horn~s shop, and they are able to choose nation-wide
the best equipment to put in the plant. He noted that uny of the
system houses are equlp~nt reps for various ~anufacturerm and they
only design in the equipment they represent.
Hr. Geer called attention to the issue of concentrate disposal.
He related that Staff has talked about recycling this through the
existing plant, and noted that this could work, but offered another
Idea ~hlch he believes will save e lot ~ore money: using the con-
centrate es an irrigation resource. He Informed that the last thing
hm ~ould reco~nd, is deep well injection mince It takes perfectly
good water and flushes It do~n a hole, and It Is lost forever. He
stated that In Florida, water cannot be wasted In that ~anner, and
added that deep well injection Is very expensive, and could add
millions of dollars to this pro~ect.
Nrc Geer explained that the range of operation of the ~e~brane
· ymte~ is determined by the number of contamlnentm that need to be
removed from th~ water. H~ affirmed that th~ groundwater quality in
South Florlde la getting worse, and noted that salt water lntrumlon tm
· threat to ~ells all around the coast. He stated that provisions
be ~ada In the design to add ptmps for the future and the piping Is

sized for the higher concentrate. Ne indicated that if 8-10 yeare
down the road there are water prob]en, with salt water intrusion,
modifications would be made, the ~embranes would be changed to the
]~ pr~re R.O. ~abr~es and the available fresh water will ~ used

that In 1986 his firm did the first full scale conceptual design of a
16 NGD le~brane softening plant in Boynton Beach, and as of last
loath, the conceptual design was colpleted for a 30 NOD ~eibrane sof-
tening plant in Brevard County.
Nr. O.J. Herin called attention to displayed exhibits of two
wbrane softening designs: conventional/standard design, and a
~odlfled design, that his fire, if selected, w111 propose to discuss
with County Staff. He noted that the conventional design incorporates
three stages, and the sodlfled design incorporates four stages. He
lnforled that the advantage of the Iodlfled design ts a 95~ recovery,
·nd the concentrate is approximately 1/3 of the conventional design.
Commissioner Shanahan questioned what PBS&.I recosm~nde for dispo-
sal of the brine? Nr. Herin replied that his first choice would be
to go beck to the line softening plant.
Mr. Norln related that sase of the options offered by the proposed
design is a higher recovery, and the slaller treatment plant sits w111
result in i higher drinking water quality and ~ore raw water can be
blended with the product water. He stated that the ~odlfled design is
about 1§~ lo.er tn capital costs than the conventional design.
noted that ha understands that Staff prefers a two-story arrangesent
with the sesbrane plant being on the first floor. He noted that the
second floor w111 contain the control room, laboratory and offices.
Comaissloner Shanahan questioned whether the plant will be
designed to step up from membrane sc~tenlng to R.O. low pressure to
high pressure, If the need arises? Mr. Herin responded that this
option will be discussed with Staff, but it la not being recommended
at this tiM.

to do specific testing of wellfleld sites for hydraulic parameters,
look at the existing wells and problesm that ~ay be encountered, and
then design the wellflelds to prevent those problems.
Comlssloner Haase noted that there Is an existing 30~ main that
runs ali the way down Golden Gate BlVdo, and questioned whether this
Is mafflcient to handle the additional pu~pa? Hr. Arnold advised that
the husker of wells Is still to be determined.
