~S TO ~ WOODBRI~E P~, LOCATED ON THE NORTH SlD~ OF O~GE
BLOSS~ RO~ BE~EN GOODLETTE RO~ ~D AI~ORT ROAD - ~PTED SUBJECT
TO PETITIOn'S A~~ AS MODIFIED
Legal notice having been published in the Naples Dally News on
March 22, 1990, as evidenced by Affidavit of Publication filed with
the Clerk, public hearing was opened to consider an ordinance amending
Ordinance 85-25, which established the "Woodbrldge" Planned Unit
....;:Devel°pment, by changing the name to "Monterey", and various other
changes.
!ii[ Planner Weeks explained that the petitioner is requesting amend-
merits to the Woodbrldge PUD which is located on the north side of
e Blossom Road, approximately 1/3 mile northeast of the Goodlette
Page 2
April 10, 1990
Extension.
i".'Mr. Neeks reported that there are several requested amendments,
~.?the most significant being; the addition of single family detached
dwellings, public and private parks, playground, and play fields
within the multi-family residential designated areas of the PUD;
adding a provision within the multi-family residential area for patio
homes, zero lot line housing, villas, single family detached units,
and townhouses; adding a provision regarding the Subdivision
Regulations (in effect) by providing for a 40' right-of-way in the
cluster, villa, and patio homes within the multi-family residential
area; and relocation of the emergency interconnection along the
eastern property line.
Mr. Weeks stated that the surrounding land use and zoning is as
follows: to the north, agriculture fields and undeveloped land, A-2
and A-2ST; to the east, partially developed with infrastructure and
some dwellings, and the Bridget Lake PUD; to the south, partially
developed with infrastructure and some dwellings, including the Sleepy
Hollow PUD; the west is undeveloped, A-2, and the Pine Ridge Sub-
division.
Mr. Weeks stated that in 1985, the Woodbridge PUD was approved for
907 dwelling units, and is partially built. He noted that Staff's
':calculations indicatP that this will be developed well under the maxi-
?. - mum number of units that are permitted. He advised that the gross
:": density of the PUD is 4.67 units per acre which is greater than the 3
'~. ' units per acre allowed in the Growth Management Plan, however, Policy
6.1 does allow for existing Development Orders to be amended and con-
ststent with the Growth Management Plan as long as the amendment yield
is the same or less intensity.
:,.~.~, In answer to Commissioner Volpe, Mr. Weeks explained that Staff
-3:' will be proposing that Policy 5.1 be deleted from the Growth
Management Plan, but until that action occurs, that Poli.'y is still in
effect, and allows for this project and others to request an amend-
-'ment.

~i{,!i..-} Commissioner Saunders stated that the conce~'u that he shares with
~,;~: ..
· i:Commissioner Volpe, is if this project is subject to zoning re-
" evaluation, he does not want to do anything today whlch would legally
." prohibit that. He indicated that he is not asking the Petitioner to
'il.give up'any rights that he may have relative to the evaluation other
~than issues that may arise from virtue of approval of the petition
.t..toda¥·
'~?'" Attorney Bruce Anderson, representing the petitioner, stated that
'. ' if this project is subject to zoning re-evaluation he believes that
, this property may qualify as improved property or one of the exemp-
ttons since his client has built and dedicated roadways.
After conferring with his client, Attorney Anderson stated that
the Petitioner agrees that any action that is taken today will not
negatively or positively affect any claim that he may have under the
~..Zoning Re-Evaluation Ordinance.
Mr. Jack McKenna of Agnolt, Barber and Brundage, informed
Commissioner Volpe that the tract to the north contains 90 units, and
~ii[! the tract to the west contains 79 units.
Mr. Bill Vines stated that this project is approved for a maximum
inumber of dwelling units, .but it is not developed to the maximum. He
indicated that the adjusted zoning will not have much affect on this
project.
In answer to Commissioner Volpe, Mr. Weeks advised that because
the entire project is not yet under review, he cannot give a final
number, but his calculations indicate that if the project is con-
':sistent with the density rating system at 3 units per acre, it would
yield 501 units for the PUD, and the remaining ? acre tract would be
allowed 100 units.
Commissioner Hasse voiced concerns relative to the number of
parking spaces, and noted that in many instances the residents of
three bedroom units have 3 cars and there is not adequate parking.
Planning Services Manager Baginskt Informed that there are provt-
:: ./sions tn the Ordinance which allow a reduction in parking spaces, but
Page 4
April 10, 1990
that he has directed his Staff that during their review of
mUlti-family projects that they are not to enter into agreements for
reserving parking spaces. He indicated that at this point in time,
.,'reductions in parking spaces are not being issued.
Commissioner Hasse suggested that Staff look Into the parking
~. recfutrements for individual units.
...~.: County Attorney Cuyler suggested that Staff may want to look into
an amendment eliminating reserved parking.
Planner Weeks reported that prior to the Collier County Planning
Commission meeting, three issues of concern have been resolved. He
noted the Petitioner has withdrawn his objection relative to the uti-
lities, and language has been drafted regarding a 40' minimum right-
of-way for the streets which will be reviewed during the Subdivision
Master Plan review. He noted that there were also miuor changes made
to the PUD documents. He stated that the PUD document, regarding
minimum setbacks, does not list separate setbacks for accessory struc-
tures, and the typical 10' rear setback has been added.
Mr. Weeks stated that the Planning Commission unanimously recom-
mended approval of this petition, subject to Staff's recommendation.
He advised that there was no public comment nor was any correspondence
received relative to this petition.
Mr. Vines stated that he is in total agreement with the Staff
Report, and all stipulations have been incorporated into the PUD docu-
i~ ~.ment. He noted that this project is almost completely developed, is a
pleasant neighborhood, and there are no parking problems.
Commissioner Volpe stated that this project will be built out at
approximately 3 units per acre which is consistent with the new Growth
Management Plan, and questioned if the applicant would agree, as part
of the approval of the amendment to the PUD, to a reduction in the
density of 3 units per acre?
Mr. Vines advised that the Petitioner prefers to deal with this at
?the time that the project is subjected to the Zoning Re-Evaluation
!-Ordinance.

April 10, 1990
With regard to voluntarily reducing the density, Mr. Anderson
(~ilnformed that his client assisted on a construction project ~or a
sewer force main for the County in the North Naples Area, and the cost
share was based on 907 units. He stated that if the County ts willing
i- 'to give his client a refund on his costs that were contributed, he
!~';wtll agree to lower the density.
There were no other speakers.

Legal notice having been published in the Naples Dally News on
March 22, 1990. as evidenced by Affidavit of Publication filed with
the Clerk, public hearing was opened to consider an ordinance
establishing, approving and adopting rules and regulations relating to
the conduct of all persons and any activity involving Collier County
' owned &trports.
Transportation Services Administrator Archibald indicated that as
a result of the efforts of Staff and the Immokalee Atrport Advisory
Committee to establish some updated rules and regulations for the
Immokalee Airport and the Everglades City Airport, revised rules and
regulations have been prepared. He Indicated that these address pri-
marily two issues: the layout plan and master plan for each airport,
how the properties wtll be developed the manner tn which the leases
will occur, and the manner of which the various processes of reviewing
developments of different sites will be reviewed; and the proper use
of the ground and air space. He noted that these rules and regula-
tions are somewhat standard and make reference to the FAA requirements
that provide for good direction in controlling the activities at the
airport sites.
Mr. Archibald advised that the ordinance sets forth the ability to
adopt rules and regulations by resolution; and action is also required
for the resolution and the rules and regulations.
Mr. Archibald indicated that Finance Director Yonkosky has com-
mented that there may be some need to broaden one of the provisions
of the ordinance. He called attention to the ordinance, Page 3,
Section 5, which makes reference to "County-owned airports", and
suggested that this be changed to "County-owned and County leased
airports".
County Attorney Cuyler noted that the suggested change should be
00 0, C 0012

[i.!i:made in various places of the ordinance and resolution.
In answer to Commissioner Hasse, Mr. Archibald remarked that the
rules and regulations provide very specific requirements for insurance
for any future lessee, and further providers direction to Staff that
lease agreements be brought back to the Commission for future con-
slderat ton.
..... i.. Commissioner Volpe questioned whether there is anything in the
ordinance or rules and regulations which would impact the plans for
the Immokalee Airport as it relates to it being in the Enterprise
.:. Zone? Mr. Archibald replied that there is no negative affect.
There were no speakers.

REBOLUTIOH 90-197, RE PETITION CCCL-90-1, REPRES[NTED BY JOSEPH
CHRISTY, REQUESTING VARIANCE FROM THE COASTAL CONSTRUCTION CONTROL
LINE FOR THE CONSTRUCTION. OF THREE PARKING SPACE COVERINGS AT THE
CHALET OF SAN MARCO CONDOMINIUMS (520 SOUTH COLLIER BOULEVARD) -
ADOPTED SUBJECT TO STIPULATIONS
Legal notice having been published In the Naples Dally News on
March 25, 1990, as evidenced by Affidavit of Publication filed with
the Clerk, public hearing was opened to consider Petition CCCL 90-1,
filed by the Chalet of San Marco Condominium Association, represented
by Joseph Christy, requesting a variance to allow construction of
vinyl coverings for three existing open parking spaces seaward of the
CCCL, for the Chalet of San Marco Condominiums in Section 17 and 18,
Township 52 South, Range 26 East, Collier County, Florida (520 South
Coilter Boulevard, Marco Island, Florida).
The discussion for this petition and Item 7A2, Petition V-90-1
were held concurrently since they are companion items.
Environmental Specialist Adair reported that the San Marco
Condominium Association is requesting a variance from the Coastal
Construction Control Line (CCCL) for the construction of coverings for
three existing parking spaces. He advised that this is a minor struc-
ture and is consistent with the Coastal Zone Protection Act of 1985,
and Policy 11.4.7 of the Growth Management Plan, and therefore, staff
ts recommending approval, suh3ect to the following stipulations:
1. Construction mater/als shall consist of aluminum posts with a
vinyl top. No side structures are permissible.
2. Construction shall not commence until authorized by the
Florida Department of Natural ReKources, Division of Beaches
and Shores.
3. Outdoor lighting associated with such construction of deve-
lopment, within 300 feet of the high tide line,, shall be in
compliance with Section Three of Ordinance 88-52.
Planner Mulhere explained that Joseph Christy, representing The
Chalet of San Marco Condominium Association, is requesting a 70 foot
variance from the required 75 foot side yard setback in order to place
an accessory parking structure on an existing parking area.
Mr. Mulhere informed that the RT district requires all setbacks to
Page 9
April 10, 1990
*:~ be calculated on the formula of 55~ of the building height. He indi-
cated that the required setback for accessory parking structures is
the same as the setback for the principal structure, and in this case,
that translates to ?5 feet. He noted that the the principal structure
is a 12 story condominium and was constructed prior to 1982, when the
current ordinance was adopted.
Hr. Mulhere advised that there is an 8' high opaque hedge running
along the property line which would screen the proposed accessory
parking structure from the adjoining property owners, and noted that
similar variances have been granted in the RT district in the past.
Planner Mulhere called attention to Exhibit "A" in the Executive
Summary, and affirmed that the Petitioner will not be adding any addi-
ti~nal parking spaces, but merely adding aluminum poles and a canvas
vinyl top.
Mr. Mulhere stated that staff has received one letter and one
phone call in opposition to this petition, citing a concern relative
to a view obstruction. He affirmed that staff does not find this to
be an issue as the view from the first floor is currently obstructed
by trees and the existing parking. He noted that the height of the
structure will not exceed 7.5', and therefore, there will be no view
i.~i[:,i, obstruction from the upper floors. He submitted photos of the pro-
:! ' posed spaces to be covered.
Mr. Joseph Christy stated that his Condominium Association desires
to duplicate the covered parking which currently exists on one side of
the driveway. He advised that when the building was originally
constructed, the developer built a 90 unit building, and provided 70
parking spaces under cover, but left 20 spaces uncovered. He noted
that the unit owners of the 20 uncovered spaces desire to have their
spaces covered.

Page 12
Attorney Dudley Goodlette stated that there has been a long
standing commitment of the community's preservation and enhancement of
the quality of life and a need for persistence tn Growth Management
policies relating to the conservation and protection of natural
resources. He explained that unfortunately, there is no Growth Mana-
gement policy, or any other sanctioned policy of the elected leaders
to preserve and protect the most precious resource, the children. He
urged that the Commission exercise leadership toward the establishment
of a Children's Service Council whose purpose is to plan, coordinate,
fund and evaluate a wide range of services to children and families.
Mr. Goodlette explained that in 1986, the Florida Legislature
enacted general legislation permitting the establishment of indepen-
dent districts within each county to provide for programs, i.e. health
care and shelter for children in need, substance abuse prevention,
family support services, and child abuse prevention programs. He
Informed that F.S. Section 125.901 provides for the establishment of
Children's Services Council whose governing board is composed of 10
residents of the county, two of whom will be members of the School
Board and a member of the County Commission, the Superintendent of
Schools, a person from HRS, and a county Judge or a Judge that Is tn
charge of ~uventle activities.
Attorney Goodlette Indicated that the ostabltshment of the Council
in Collier County would enable the community to confirm its commitment
to invest now in the young people, rather than to pay later for the
adult that the neglected or abused child may become. He noted that
the future of Collier County is in the hands of these children. He
explained that the investment of available resources on early inter-
ventton and prevention that keeps a child out of prison as teenager,
saves not only society dollars, but it saves victims enormous pain.
Mr. Goodlette requested that the County Attorney draft the
Page
April 10, 1990
appropriate enabling legislation to enable the community to establish
a Children's Services Council.
In answer to Commissioner Hasse, Attorney Goodlette said that at
the present time he Is not askinG the County for any financial respon-
sibility. He advised that this Is a thr~e step process: adopt an
ordinance to establish the Council; have the Council conduct a need
survey to determine the exact needs, and the appropriate funding
mechanism; and, if appropriate, adopt a resolution to submit this to a
referendum.
Commissioner Volpe questioned whether other counties that have
established a Children's Council have be~n ef£ectlve In addressing the
problems as they relate to children? Mr. Dudley advised that the
Council has been very successful tn Plnellas County, but noted that
these Councils have only been established for the past two years.
Commissioner Shanahan stated that he ts In favor of the ordinance.
Be advised that the consultants that presented the Collier 2000 Study
indicated that in their opinion, unless something is done about the
children tn this community, there is no need to worry about the 1-75
driving crime that comes Into Collier County, since It will be bred in
Collier County.
Commissioner Saunders commended Attorney Goodlette on his presen-
tation and voiced his support of the proposition.
The following persons spoke tn favor of the establishment of a
Ghildren's Services Council:
Mrs. Bea Harper, representing Naples Alliance for Children
Mr. David Schimmel, representing David Lawrence Center
Deputy Jim Hanson
The speakers tn favor of the Council, cited the following: it Is
the government's business to protect its citizens; the creation of the
Council will reduce the crime tn Collier County by 10~-15~; 76~ of the
Juvenile crimes committed in Collier County were committed by 159
children; these children can be targeted, identified, and treated.
The following persons spoke In opposition to the establishment of
a Children's Services Council:
Page 14
Mr. John VanArsdale
Mr. George Keller
April 10, 1990
Those speakers in opposition to the Children's Council, cited the
following: the funding of the Council will be a burden that should
not be placed on the taxpayers of Collier County; it is the respon-
sibility of parents to raise their children, and County government
should not be involved.
Tape
Oe~mAseloner Saundere m~ved, seconded by Commissioner 8hanahan and
carrie<l unanimously, that the County Attorney be directed to draft an
ordinance to establish a Children's Services Council and the
appropriate resolutions, and bring back to the Commission as quickly
as possible so that the Council may be forced to define the needs and
the source of revenue, and the Commission can then detsraine during
the ~uiler whether this issue should be put on the ballot.

ORDXIIA]I~I NO. 90-30, CREATING A MANDATORY SOLID WASTE COLLECTION
p~OalA~ - ADOFr~D SUBJECT TO CHAWaZS
Legal notice having been published tn the Naples Dally News on
March 15, 1990, as evidenced by Affidavit of Publication flied with
the Clerk, public hearing was continued from April 3, 1990, to con-
sider a proposed ordinance relating to the Solid Waste Collection
program.
Assistant County Manager McLemore Indicated that this item was
heard at a BCC workshop on March 20, 1990. He explained that there
are several issues that have been raised and the County Attorney's
Office wanted an opportunity to comment on those issues, and provide a
list of minor changes that are recommended for addition to the ordi-
nance.
Mr. McLemore stated that one of the issues ts whether or not the
program could be started prior to the 1992 service year date, which
is subject to F.S. Chapter 197, Tax Ce,rttficate Sale, the enforcement
Page 15
April 10, 1990
mechanism for the collection of revenues. He stated that the program
may be underway in 1991, but not through the tax certificate mecha-
nism. To accomplish this, he explained, a lien procedure would have
to be set up identical to the procedure used to collect the
water/sewer bills, indicating that this system has a 95~ or better
collection rate, however, there is an element of risk in trying to
collect the fees earlier, and he cautioned the Board that they must be
mindful of the cost of this risk.
Commissioner Volpe acknowledged Mr. McLemore's review of the
billing situation and questioned if the County has received an opinion
from the Attorney General's Office.
Assistant County Attorney Weigel informed the Commissioners that
the Attorney General's Office has informally stated that they find no
problem with the collection procedure proposed.
Mr. Weigel further noted that the request has not been sent
due to the probability that there will be further questions from the
County Commissioners, which can be added to the communication and a
quicker response received on all questions.
Mr. We/gel pointed out that the collection mechanism can work
through the Tax Collector's office and enforcement can follow in the
same manner as is in place within the ordinance at the present time,
adding that if the program is instituted prior to 1992, the Tax
Collector's office will not be used pursuant to Chapter 197, but pur-
suant to Chapter 173 of the Florida Statues which provides for similar
collection and assessment through liens.
Commissioner Volpe expressed concern as to why the collection
mechanism is being changed, and further asked if the County is going
to request a formal opinion.
Mr. Weigel indicated that there is a tremendous cost involved in
going through the proposed collection procedure, and the average total
collections through this procedure is only 85~, prior to enforcement.
In response to Commissioner Volpe's question, Mr. McLemore indi-
cated that the total collections will be very close to 95~, which
00 C1 O43
Page 16
April 10, 1990
leaves 5% outstanding, at a rate of approximately $50,000 for every
1% or $250,000 that the County will be paying to the franchisee, while
being uJlable to collect that same $250,000. Mr. McLemore further
noted that there are administrative fees involved in lien collections.
Commissioner Volpe asked if there is a way to transfer the respon-
sibility to the franchisee, and Mr. McLemore indicated that if the
collection is mandatory, it must be billed through the County.
Commissioner Shanahan noted that the 85% collection combined with
'[. the lien procedure collection of an additional 10% ts very good,
however, the uncollected portion will still remain at approximately 5%
· ?~ with a cost of $50,000 for every percentage point
i: Commissioner Volpe asked if a public survey was done as discussed
~.~.- during the workshop, and Mr. McLemore, indicated that this question
~,'J · was not specifically addressed tn the report, and noted that the
.!.
mechanism is in place for a public survey to be completed wlthln two
weeks, should it be necessary.
Commissioner Volpe expressed concern over tl~e public understanding
the implications of Mandatory Solid Waste Collection and its effect on
the average resident of Collier County and that there may be a problem
with speciflc areas which should not be subject to Mandatory Solid
Waste Collection, citing Marco Island, North Naples and other areas
that are not experiencing problems with trash.
Mr. McLemore emphasized that there is no doubt that Mandatory
Solid Waste Collection works and any billing procedure has its
problems as to collections.
Responding to Commissioner Hasse, Mr. Weigel indicated that it is
not possible to add a delinquent account from the first year's billing
to the 1992 tax bill. It would instead, be a lien that carries for-
ward on the property, and the County would have the option of going
forward with a foreclosure procedure, he said.
Commissioner Shanahan Indicated that he prefers to see the
Mandatory Solid Waste Collection begin in 1991, and would like to see
the County come up with a'suitable alternative for collection with
Page 17
April 10, 1990
risk and less cost.
Reiterating that there is no Public Opinion Poll, Commissioner
Volpe stated that he would like to know if the Mandatory Solid Waste
Collection Ordinance will have a significantly greater impact on the
private citizens of the county than a re~xllar private waste collec-
tion. He also indicated that he is opposed to a private citizen
. Jeopardizing the ownership of his property because of a lien or tax
certificate sale due to non payment of Solid Waste Collection bills.
He said if the public understands what is being proposed and agrees to
this type of collection, he is willing to initiate the program.
Commissioner Hasse indicated that if there is no Mandatory Solid
Waste Collection, the expense to the taxpayer for cleanup is high.
Agreeing that there are a number of inequities, Mr. McLemore
expressed the fact that a lot of people use the neighbors service
because they do not have their own. He further expressed concerns
about public health and safety and the initiation of a hardship
system.
Questioning whether there is really a cost benefit to the pub]lc,
Commissioner Volpe stated that although Waste Management has agreed to
hold the line on cost to the County, they are, in return getting
County business and the County is underwriting the liability for non-
payment. This liability, he continued, if unpaid by the property
owner, will be built into the tax liability for those that do pay.
Commissioner Saunders indicated that over a ten year period of
time the tax assessments will be adjusted to reflect the actual
receipts and any collections that are paid by the County will be
covered.
Commissioner Volpe indicated that there has been no communication
with his district regarding the addressing of a Mandatory Solid Waste
Collection Ordinance. He indicated that he would like to see what the
public opinion is before making a decision.
Commissioners Shanahan and Volpe both indicated that they do not
have a problem with delaying the adoption of the Ordinance for two
Page 18
April 10, 1990
weeks until a Public Opinion Poll can be taken and the results aha-
contract.
Commissioner Hasse indicated that the problem ts not with property
owners and citizens who have waste pickup at the current time, but
with those who do not, noting that ths burden will rest with those
citizens and property owners who are already shouldering their respon-
sibility.
Mr. McLemore indicated that the level of service standard has pre-
'vtously been set at twice per week pickup as a minimum for residen-
tial and commercial. He noted that Waste Management has 1200
comraerctal users who only have once a week pickup, adding that it Is
Staff's opinion that once a week is enough except tn those instances
of the generation of putresctble waste.
Responding to Commissioner Volpe's question, Mr. McLemore indi-
cated that commercial accounts will continue to be billed through the
waste collector on an as needed basis, through a contractual
agreement, and this will not affect the County's billing, however
under the Ordinance a Commercial user has to present a copy of the
contract for waste collection prior to the issuance of a Certificate
of Occupancy. He noted that the commercial rate is established
through negotiations with the waste service provider and will be a
published rate.
The rate charged to the private citizen will also be negotiated
with the provider by the County, Mr. McLemore continued, and will also
be a published rate with no Increase in charges for the period of the
Page 19
Mr. McLemore addressed the issue of the homeowner's associations,
and said the County Attorney's recommendation is that they be billed
the same as everyone else, as single family residences. At the pre-
sent time, he stated, the Tax Collector has every unit of property on
the tax rolls, and if the unit is a quadruplex or less, they will
receive an individual assessment. There is, he added, no advantage to
the homeowners association providing this service and billing for it
the Ordinance goes Into effect.
April 10, 1990
In further explaining the collection process, Mr. McLemore noted
that If a multi-family housing area has both single, and multi-unit
housing, all single units and multi-units of four or less will be
billed through the Tax Collector, and anything larger will go through
a commercial account.
Commissioner Volpe noted that he lives in a single family resi-
dence that has bulk container service and asked what his btlltng sta-
tus would be, to which Mr. McLemore indicated that he Is not aware
those types of situations exist and will have to do additional
research.
Noting that, contrary to the Ordinance as currently written, there
ts no mandatory style of trash containers, Mr. McLemore Indicated to
Commissioner Volpe, that whatever is currently used by residents to
dispose of trash will be acceptable.
Mr. McLemore reported that the proposal allows for mandatory resi-
dential curbs/de recycling, and Commissioner Saunders noted that it
ts his understanding that there will be no added cost to the resident
Commissioner Volpe Indicated that an earlier agreement with Waste
Management, tn order to pursue mandatory collection, stated that there
would be no additional cost involved in mandatory curbside recycling,
however, current Indication ts that there may now be a charge for It,
even though it has been established that this is the most expensive
way to do recycling.
In response to Commissioner Volpe's request for cost, Mr. McLemore
stated that the average cost would be $1.42/per household for
recyclables, and the current rate will then be $8.50/per household
per month for the next three years.
Mr. George Keller said that he is In favor of mandatory collec-
tion, but is concerned about the cost. Noting the amount of distance
between some of the home locations, he asked if the homeowners in the
more densely populated areas will be paying more so that those in the
less densely populated areas can maintain the same rate. He indicated
Page 20
April 10, 1990
that he feels the use of the word "urban" should not remain in the
ordinance because of the amount of rural area that the Ordinance
encompasses. }:e noted that the major recycling problem is not dispo-
sable garbage, but debris that is left sitting in the swales, on berms
or vacant lots, and asked if there is going to be pickup days for this
type of refuse.
Commissioner Volpe indicated that there will be uniform rates
county-wide, within each of the two assessment districts, with the
potential of Immokalee being assessed at a different rate.
Commissioner Volpe noted that the Ordinance as written states that
the pickup of unlimited quantities of debris shall be included in the
special assessment imposed herein, without any additional assessment,
service charge, or tax to be imposed by the Board or the Contractor
for such service.
Mr. McLemore explained that this means that the cost will be
included in the overall monthly bill and no additional bills will be
sent for this service.
Responding to Commissioner Goodntght's question about franchise
areas, Mr. McLemore indic;ired that the current franchise areas will
remain the same.
Mr. McLemore indicated that when the issues related to the
Ordinance are cleared up, negotiations for the cost of requested types
of pickup can begin. He suggested that the Board remain in favor of
unlimited collection due to its importance, and further noted that
this mandatory collection would not have any bearing on the collection
of hazardous waste.
Speaking on behalf of the League of Women Voters, Mrs. Gharlotte
Westman indicated that a major part of the problem in Collier County
ls litter, noting that when people have to pay for a service they
usually use it. She stated that the issue of garbage in this Country
is a serious issue because the United States throws away more trash
than any other Country in the world.
Indicating that the League of Women Voters has taken telephone
April :10, :1990
polls, Mrs. Westman advised the Board that the response to questions
related to trash and garbage are positive; stating that garbage and
trash collection in the neighborhood is as good as can be expected,
however, the disposal of this garbage is a major problem in the
county.
Mrs. Westman voiced concern with regard to the manner of payment
for waste collection, referring to attaching the charges to tax
assessments on an annual basis. She noted for the Board that Rule
17.708 recf~ires the County, as of October 1, 1990, to determine and
make available to every citizen in the community, the cost of handling
solid waste disposal, including the cost to haul it from the pickup
site to the landfill or disposal site, and any other related charges.
Mr. Anthony Zetger, Vice President of Waters Edge Condominium
Association on Marco Island, said that he and the other owners are
unclear as to what effect the Mandatory Solid Waste Collection
Ordinance will have on them. He asked if a condominium association
could use its manager to haul waste in lieu of using the County's
contractor under this exemption procedure.
Mr. McLemore indicated that through the exemption clause in the
Ordinance, assuming the condominium manager follows the procedure, he
can be exempt. He explained that the manager would have to
demonstrate that he personally would be hauling the waste and not
hiring an outside contractor, as the county contractor has an exclu-
sive franchise for the entire county. If the waste is hauled by the
manager or staff of the condominiums, theze is no necessity of
obtaining bulk containers and locating them on the site, he said.
Mr. Willie Anthony addressed the Board regarding his concern that
the billing for this waste collection is being tied to property taxes,
stating that he feels that many people pay as they go and to have to
pay for service that has yet to be received, is inappropriate.
Commissioner Vo]pe indicated there is a mechanism in place with
the Tax Collector that allows for taxes and all assessments to be paid
on a quarterly basis, if the taxpayer signs up for this type of set-
Page 22
April lO, 1990
':' vice.
Mr. Anthony indicated he feels an approach that would be fair
would be to bill on a monthly basis, and if the bills are not paid,
they could be attached to the tax bills.
Mr. We/gel indicated that the billing would be in advance for the
entire year, and Mr. Anthony asked what will happen to any unused
tion. Commissioner Hasse indicated that this will be handled in the
same manner as the taxes on the property, In the event that the pro-
perty is no longer owned by the same person.
Mr. Anthony emphasized that he feels there is something
inherently wrong with a government that demands that a citizen pay for
a service he does not receive. Mr. Dorrtll indicated that much of the
waste removal will be subsidized by residents who only live in the
County part of the year, and they are not exempt Commissioner Volpe
indicated that mandatory collection does not operate the way the cable
or the utility companies do, in that, when someone is away or does not
want the service, you can have it terminated.
Commissioner Goodnigh~: indicated that Collier County is not
setting a precedent by instituting Mandatory Solid Waste Collection,
because such procedures have already been established in Hendry, Lee,
Charlotte and other counties throughout the State.
Mr. McLemore indicated that no Certificate of Occupancy for any
residence will be issued until the balance of the year's waste collec-
tion has been paid.
Mr. Weigel indicated that if the Board determines they will have
mandatory pickup of recyclable materials, they will have to define
what comprises the recyclable items.
Commissioner Goodntght Indicated that, as of this date, she would
be unable to reassure the Board that Immokalee would willingly comply
with the mandatory recycling, because there are many people in that
area that make a living by collecting recyclable refuse, and to
enforce the ordinance will mean a loss in income for these people.
Page 2 3
April ]0, ~990
Mr. McLemore indicated that when considering Commissioner
Goodntght's statement, there are now three optio3s that can be con-
sldered by the County; removing mandatory recyclinG from the
Ordinance; leaving the mandatory portion in the ordinance; or nego-
tiating a voluntary recyclinG program. Indicating that the goal is to
meet the State Mandate on Solid Waste and Recyclables, Mr. McLemore
said it would be difficult for the County to comply with a voluntary
system.
In response to Commissioner Volpe's question regardinG the inclu-
sion of the definitions of hazardous, bi-hazardous, and biologica1
waste in the Ordinance, Mr. McLemore stated that this is the manner in
which the County knows, by definition, what is excluded.
Ms. Cynthia Sweering stated that she appreciates Commissioner
Volpe looking into this matter and the fact ~that he feels more input
is needed. She concurred with Mr. Willie Anthony, who indicated that
the group this ordinance is aimed at are those who probably do not
have waste removal at the present time. In order to Get these people
to comply, she continued, the mandatory ordinance is being proposed,
however, these are also the people who can only afford to pay by the
month and billing them by the year prior to the service presents
problems for them.
Mr. Kim Egelseer, General Manager for Waste Management, Inc.,
addressed the Commission and stated that many of the issues presented
this date are best left to the contract negotiations, and the
discussion of a mandatory waste collection ordinance is more an
environmental issue than anything else. Mr. Egelseer further noted
that the County has hired an outside consultant who endorsed havinG a
mandatory solid waste collection policy.
Mr. Egelseer stated that they are currently billing 60 to ?0% of
the accounts that they are collecting waste from, and that out of that
billing percentage, 98.§% of the accounts are paid in full and on
time. He noted that these people are the people who want the service
and therefore are willing to pay, and collections are relatively easy.
00 [ 0051
Page 24
April 10, 1990
Mr. Egelseer noted that the most effective way of collecting
recyclables is curbstde, because drop off service is not effective and
will not meet the state mandated goal of 30~. Mr. Egelseer stated
that he feels 1992 ts too long to watt and urged the Board to imple-
ment the ordinance.
Mr. Egelseer indicated that he does not endorse mandating twice
weekly pickup for commercial accounts because there are currently 1200
customers who receive one pick up per week and they are very small
businesses that do not have the need for more service.
Mr. Egelseer concluded by stating that in his initial contact with
Mr. Dorrill he indicated that if the current level of service is
implemented, there will be no additional charge for recycle service,
however, should the county add services he will not be able to main-
rain the orfgtnal agreement. Those specific services he stated are:
unltmlted residential service vs. a ten item limit, which is the
current contract language; unlimited pickup of 3unk (white goods);
and small commercial accounts who use containers such as plastic bags,
which are presently billed at a higher rate than the container rate.
Co--missioner Goodntght moved, seconded b~ co~atsstoner Shanmhmn
and carried 5/0, that the Public Hearing be closed.
Co~lssioner Shanahan aoved, seconded by Conisstoner Goodntght,
that the Ordinance be adopted with the reco~nded changes.
Further discussion by Commissioner Volpe and Commissioner Shanahan
indicated that the intent of the motion ts that Mandatory Solid Waste
Collection begin in 1991; that there is to be no Public Opinion Poll
conducted; and that there be a favorable opinion from the Attorney
General that the Tax Collector can be used to bill the property owners
for waste collection. Mr. Cuyler advised that Commissioner Shanahan's
motion include the flexlbllity to change the definition as noted In
Section Q, relative to recyclables.

FOR R~TAIL SALES OF PROPAN~ - ADOPTED ~IIBJECT TO
Planner Hoover stated that the petitioner is requesting a provi-
sional use In a C-4 ZoninG D/strict to allow the retail sales of pro-
pane gas. He stated that currently, Naples Fertilizer and Supply
Company sells gas grills, and they desire to sell propane as an
accessory use from a 1,000 gal/on tank from the rear of their
building.
Mr. Hoover indicated that the subject property ts west of
Goodlette Road, east of 14th Street North, and approximately 700'
south of Solana Road. He stated that the project is within the
Golden Gate Parkway/Goodlette Road overlay zoning district, but it
does meet the requirements of that district.
Mr. Hoover noted that the Collier County Planning Commission held
their public hearinG on March 1, 1990, and recommend approval of this
Page 26
~i~'Petition, subject to one stipulations from the Fire Department.
Commissioner Volpe stated that he has a concern with regard to a
day care center which is located close to the proposed provisional
use. He questioned whether staff ~s satisfied that there is suf-
ficient buffering between the propane tan~ and the day care center?
Mr. James Harper of A-! Gas Company, explained that 3" posts are
buried tn concrete around the tank to stop vehicles. He noted that
the property is fenced in.
Commissioner Volpe questioned whether the petitioner will be pro-
vidinG some type of aesthetic screen along Goodlette Road to obscure
the tank from the roadway? Mr. Harper replied that this could be pro-
vided. Commissioner Volpe suggested that either a slat diagonal
hurricane type fence be provided or some type of vegetation.

Legal notice having been published tn the Naples Dally News on
March 25, 1990, as evidenced by Affldavt~ of Publication flied with
the Clerk, public hearing was opened to consider Petition V-90-5,
flied by Benjamin L. Sommer, requesting a 10 foot variance from the
required rear yard setback of 30 feet to 20 feet, for a proposed addi-
tion to an existing structure, in a PUD district, for Lot §, Block G,
Foxfire Unit 3, 403 King Way.
Planner Milk indicated that the petitioner ts requesting a 10
foot variance tn order to construct a room addition. He affirmed that
the subject property is zoned "PUD" and allows a single-family resi-
dence as a permitted principal use. Ne noted that the property ts an
interior lot, pie-shaped, therefore, it has two side yards, one rear
yard and one front yard. He stated that the proposed room addition
will replace the petitioner's existing screened-tn porch, and would be
attached to the rear of the structure and serve as a family room,
overlooking the lake adjacent to the rear property line.
Mr. Milk advised that tn reviewing this petition, based upon the
criteria contained tn Section 11 lb.4 of the Zoning Ordinance, staff
has determined that granting this variance will not be In harmony with
the general intent and purpose of the Ordinance, and therefore, recom-
mends denial.
Mr. Milk noted that the Collier County Planning Commission held
their public hearing on March 1§, 1990, and recommended approval (?/1)
of this petition.
, Mr. Ben3amtn Sommer stated that his adjacent neighbors do not
}?.~ object to his variance request. He advised that he proposes to remove
2' from his existing screened enclosure and turn it Into a family
room. He noted that it will have a permanent roof rather than a tin
,i, roof.
There were no other speakers.

STAI~F TO IDENTIFY POTENTIAL USES FOR THE TOURIST DEVELOPI~NT TAX,
EXCLUDING MARCO, AND EVENTUALLY EXCLUDING II~OKALEE; AND PRESENT DRAFT
OF ORDINANCE ON MAY 8 FOR CONSIDERATION OF NOVEMBER REF'EI~DOM
Assistant County Hanager McLemore stated that recommendations as
they relate to the Tourist Development 3ax are being presented. Re
noted that certain members of the Commission have indicated that they
desire to have this item heard in conjunction with the Sales Tax. He
requested direction relative to Staff developing a program for the use
of the Bed Tax and that the Commission commit to the date of November
6 for the adoption of the Tax. He noted that Staff will bring back a
program of expenses, projects, and a date to set the referendum.
Mr. McLemore noted that the use of the Bed Tax as it relates to
the continuous renourishment of beaches would do what was proposed to
,??~. be done by the Marco Taxing District, and there is substantial benefit
~ii:" to the people of Marco.
Commissioner Saunders stated that he has difficulty in setting a
referendum date prior to knowing the uses of the tax, and the question
of whether or not to include Marco.
Commissioner Hasse remarked that this came about by the Local
Option 1¢ Sales Tax being on the ballot in September rather than in
November, and in h~s opinion, this is part and parcel of it.
Commissioner Volpe commented that he agrees that this matter
should be placed on the referendum, but the Commission does not have
any of the details.
Commissioner Shanahan mentioned that one of the principal reasons
the Tourist Development Tax was previously defeated was that there
would be beach renourfshment and other purposes, without definitions,
and from his view point, it is impossible to vote on it without defi-
n~tion. He noted that the people on Marco have said that they have a
Beach Renourishment Tax and Island Wide Tax that has collected over
$500,000 for renourishment purposes, and they should be excluded since
they have totally different marketing needs, and they are not
interested in promoting the Philharmonic. He stated that he is
Page 30
April 10, 1990
willing to vote for a Tourist Development Tax, but not for an open
ended tax which includes Marco Island.
Commissioner Saunders stated that the last time this Issue was
brought before the Commission, there was a 2/2 vote, and he did not
vote since he was advised that he should not participate in the
voting. He advised that he requested a formal opinion from the
Commission on Ethics, and has received a response informing him that
he may vote on this issue. He suggested that discussions be held on
this Tax, and then an informal vote to determine whether a majority of
the Commission ts interested in pursuing the Tourist Development Tax
form, and then Staff can come back with the ordinance.
The following persons spoke In favor of the Tourist Development
Tax:
Mrs. Charlotte Westman
Mr. George Keller
Col. John Beebe, Jr.
Mr. Dick Butthof
Those persons speaking In favor of the Tax cited the following:
the island-wide MSTU on Marco is pinpointed for beach access; the
referendum should be County-wide; the Marco Nourishment Project ts a
one time shot, and there are no monies for beach maintenance; 70~ of
the people who use Marco's beaches are tourists; many of the people
who rent condominiums on the Marco beach are tourists; it is unfair to
place a tax on the rest of the people in Collier County and exclude
Marco Island; the Bed Tax should be put on the September ballot;
without the beaches tn Collier County, the hospitality industry would
not exist; the Bed Tax ts well suited to maintain the beaches; the Bed
Tax should be devoted entirely to maintaining the beaches; the
Philharmonic should raise its own money and not be entitled to any of
the money from the Bed Tax; let the voters decide if they believe a
Bed Tax te appropriate in Collier County;
The following persons spoke tn opposition to the Tourist
Development Tax:

Mrs. Barbara Mtnch
Ms. Rosemarte D'Haem
(>£LL OOTU

Mr. Robert Stakich
Mr. Mike Watkins
Mr. John Dougherty
April 10, 1990
Those persons speaking tn opposition to the Tax cited the
following: it is nearly impossible for the Tax Collector to collect
this tax; the Bed Tax issue throughout the state is a nightmare; Marco
Island should be excluded; the tax ts unfair and unnecessary; this tax
ts taxation without representation; there are better ways to address
beach renourtshment and cultural events; the residents of Immokalee
should not be paying for the beach in Naples; overall marketing cam-
patgns do not help Marco Island or Immokalee; the need should be
established first, and then the tax could be created; Marco should be
taxed and the rest of the County should be excluded, based on who owns
beachfront properties; there has not been a clear definition of the
use of the tax; this tax is double taxation for beach renourishment
and maintenance on Marco Island; the tax will have a definite effect
on the service people, and many will be out of jobs; the property
owners on the west side of U.S. 41 should pay a maintenance tax; many
of the areas that have a Bed Tax, have had a decline tn their tourist
business; the County should gear its efforts toward passing the 1¢
Local Option Sales Tax, rather than the Bed Tax; Naples should
renourish their own beaches; 3 Blue Ribbon Committees have recommended
denial of this tax; the Bed Tax should be used for promotion of the
tourist Industry and not for any other uses; tourists already pay
their fair share.
Commissioner Saunders stated that he Is In favor of considering
the Tourist Development Tax, but he ts not prepared today to say that
he ts in favor of putting this on the ballot In November since he does
not know what the uses are. He suggested that if there is an indica-
tion from the Commission that they are supportive of the concept of
the Tourist Tax, and assuming that Staff comes back with the
appropriate use, this may be considered for November. He noted that
he believes that Marco Island should be excluded, since these people
00 C 0071
Page 32
April 10, 1990
already taxed themselves for their beach renourtshment project
and they will be paying for a portion of the County's Beach
Renourishment project if the lC Local Option Sales Tax is approved.

Co~tsstoner Volpe stated that he has been one of the outspoken
advocates of the Bed Tax, and noted that he cannot support the motion
since a signif~cant portion of the community will be excluded from the
obligations of paying the
Co~issloner Hasse indicated that he concurs with Co~issioner
Volpe and is in support of the motion, with the exception of the
exclusions. He noted that the beauty of the beaches in Collier County

Legal notice having been published in the Naples Dally News on
March 22, 1990, as evidenced by Affidavit of Publication flied with
the Clerk, public hearing was opened to consider the adoption of an
Ordinance calling for a referendum on the question of the Local Option
Infrastructure Sales Tax in Collier County and to establish the recom-
mended projects to be funded by the tax.
Mr. Dorrlll stated that there will not be a staff presentation,
and Indicated that there have been a number of changes In the original
scope of the tax. As a result of these changes the recommended list
of projects Is:
Page 33
April 10, 1990
Schools
State and local roads
Jails and /aw enforcement factltti~s
Beach renourlshment
Mr. Dorrtll stated that this list ts considered to be the Core
Projects, noting that the beach renourtsbment project will benefit the
City of Naples and will be worked out with an tnterlocal agreement.
Mr. Dorrtll said that failure to work out such an tnterlocal
agreement means that the City will receive their statutortal share
which is 13~, based on a proportionate share calculation, with the
City being allowed to determine which of their projects should receive
funds from the tax.
Mr. Dorrill Indicated that the schools and state road needs repre-
sent 60% of the sales tax, and these combined with the other needs of
the county will mean a minimum ten year duration for this tax.
Indicating that sales tax receipts are cyclical tn nature, Mr.
Dorrlll stated that the County Manager's Office will not have a
problem in recommending rescinding the tax earlier than the projected
ten year period If the funds are collected at an accelerated rate.
Mr. Dorrill added that he feels the Commission needs to outline
the specific areas where funds will be allocated.
The final change that Mr. Dorrlll recommended ts based on the capital
improvement program for the School Board, explaining that the reason
he is recommending a September 4, 1990, referendum is to provide the
schools with an assurance of funds when the 1990-91 budget becomes
effective in October. Should the referendum be deferred until
+:i,~' November, Mr. Dorrtll continued, it will be beyond the point at which
~i~, · the School Board can apply the millage and there will be a capital
Improvement program shortfall.
Responding to Commissioner Hesse' question, Mr. Dorrtll said that
the beach renourlshment funds that will be allocated to the City of
Naples will also include the State roads that are tn the City. Mr.
McLemore added that the City portion of the beach renourtshment
program is scheduled to cost $14 million, and the U.S. 41 Improvements
~:~' Page 34
:.',~[ ,~ .: ,
April 10, 1990
within the City will amount to approximately $6 million.
Commissioner Saunders asked Mr. Dorrtll if tkis was the original
figure, or if it has been adjusted due to the reduction in revenues.
He suggested that if the beach renourishment project is not endorsed
by the County he will be inclined to disagree with the course of
action and there will not be a unanimous vote from the Board.
Commissioner Volpe stated that he feels there is some confusion
with respect to beach renourishment in District #2 and it is his
understanding that Pelican Bay is not part of the plan, and Wiggins
State Park is not going to be renourtshed. He asked what beach within
District #2 is going to be renourished? Mr. Dorrill responded that
the beach scheduled for renourishment in District #2 is Vanderbilt
Beach. Commissioner Volpe stated that the Sales Tax is going to be
collected County-wide, including District #2, and if the only benefit
that his district will get in beach renourtshment will be 15OO feet of
beach, he may be in disagreement with the Core Projects.
Commissioner Hasse noted that Commissioner Volpe is assuming that
his constituents only use Vanderbilt Beach, and that a major portion
of the road improvements scheduled to be paid for by this sales tax
are in District #2, as well as Immokalee, where there are no beaches
to renourish, and Marco Island, where the beaches have already been
renourished.
Mr. Dorrill assured the Commissioners that there is a good consti-
tuency County-wide, who will endorse adequate beaches and support
their renourishment. He noted that the ranourishment program has
great value in storm protection for the City and the County.
Referring to the discussions relative to the Bed Tax from the
residents of Marco Island, Mr. Dorrill indicated that he feels the
beaches in North Naples are more accessible and serve a wider range of
public uses than those on Marco Island, and there is a great deal more
'.,,? .
parking access.
Referring to the newly acquired area at Barefoot Beach,
Commissioner Hasse questioned, whether it is affected by the
Page 35
~ti- . renourishment program?
April 10, 1990
Mr. Dorrill responded negatively, saying that
the only project in that area is Vanderbilt Beach and most of the
beaches north of there are pristine beaches that have no vertical
structures landward of the Coastal Construction Control Line and are
in better shape than the beaches to the south.
Co~u~issioner Volpe indicated he would like to discuss where the
excess revenue, if any, will be used. Mr. Dorrill referred to his
opening statements in which he alluded to the fact that his office
would have no problem in recommending rescinding the tax once the
dollar goal has been met for the Core Projects.
Mr. Dorrill noted commented that this Sales Tax issue would stand
a better chance of passing, in his opinion, if the voters had a speci-
fic idea of the project needs, the project budgets, and the amount of
time that is expected to pass before the amounts necessary to fund the
projects are collected. Should those funds be collected sooner, the
taxpayer should understand that the tax will be eliminated, Mr.
Dorrill said.
Commissioner Volpe asked Mr. Dorrill if, should State money become
available to fund State roads, the County can provide a mechanism to
either pay down the bonds or put the County on "a pay as you go"
system, to which Mr. Dorrill responded affirmatively.
Pertaining to the use of the sales tax funds for use by the School
i -i~.i'-
Board, Commissioner Volpe indicated that legally the County is not
;'"':' permitted to allocate any funds collected in this manner for use by
the schools. He noted that Representative Mary Ellen Hawkins is spon-
soring a bill to resolve this problem. Commissioner Volpe asked what
would happen to the $174 million collected for use by the schools.
Mr. Dorrlll ascertained that other counties are using sales tax
funds for school purposes, however, if Collier County is challenged
and prevented from using the funds, the County would have a
"windfall." He cautioned that spending this "windfall" for other than
schools would, in his opinion, do a disservice to the Commission.
Agreeing with Mr. Dorrill, Commissioner Volpe maintained that
Page 36
· .,.[....' April 10, 1990
after Identifying the projects, if the schools are excluded from the
Sales Tax, he feels the sentiment would be to decrease the time period
for the tax.
County Attorney Cuyler advised the Board that he feels that the
County will have an answer from the State Government before the School
Board has to react, however, there is no guarantee that the law will
be passed in this legislative session.
Commissioner Goodnight called attention to the fact that the
Commissioners did not ask the local Legislative Delegation to recom-
mend a Special Act for Collier County. She stated that as an
Executive Member of the Board of the Florida Association of Counties,
she has to oppose the bill because of the direction received by that
Board.
Commissioner Goodnight further ascertained that other counties
that have wanted to share the sales tax revenues have gone to a spe-
cial legislative act, and suggested that this should have been Collier
County's means of insuring that sa]es tax revenues can be shared with
the schools. As it currently stands, she pointed out, a majority of
the counties in the State do not want to be mandated to share their
tax revenues with the schools.
Advocating Special Legislation, Commissioner Goodnight noted that
this request should have been processed several months ago. She con-
firmed Commissioner Hasse's statement that she could not go to
Tallahassee and support the requested bill as sponsored by
Representative Hawkins, however she emphasized that she would not be
working against the bill.
Mr. Dorrtll emphasized that he does not believe the County would
be challenged, but if they were, the County Attorney recommended that
the Ordinance be amended at that time to reflect that the money would
not be shared with the school.
Commissioner Hasse expressed concern that the rationale for
putting the tax referendum on the September ballot is to be able to
provide the anticipated revenue for the School Board to base their
Page 37
authorizing this type of action.
April 10, 1990
1990-91 Budget on, and he feels that there is now a problem with the
'legality of the proposal.
County Attorney Cu¥1er told Commissioner Goodntght that the docu-
ments for legislation for a Special Act have been submitted some time
ago, although he has concerns that this is the appropriate form to
pass. Representative Hawkins, he continued, submitted It to the
attorneys and the indication is that the Legislature is split on
He noted that the Board would have a
response well before the September referendum.
County Attorney Cuyler suggested that the Board proceed with the
referendum on Its present course, and should the State Legislature
decide that funds cannot be allocated to the schools by a Special Act
or by adoption of a new /aw, then the Board can be commended for
trying to get the schools the money they need, devote the monies set
aside for other Core Projects to their specified areas, and rescind
the Sales Tax when the goal, minus the $174 million, is reached.
Mr. Dorrill indicated he had a particular concern because citi-
~ zens supporting either side of the issue should be allowed time to
!~.~i mount a campaign, and waiting until the conclusion of the Legislative
· '~ Session, does not allow the needed time.
~.. Pointing out to the Board that previous Commissions have discussed
'~ . whether or not certain factual information would be prepared and
made available to the general public, Mr. Dorrill advised that
{~!~. taxpayer's money cannot be used to encourage the general public to
· vote yes or no, but can provide information relative to key issues.
Commissioner Saunders recommended that County Attor,~ey Cuyler con-
!~'~'! tact Representative Hawkin~': or Senator Dudley and find out the status
{'; of the Legislation.
Commissioner Volpe and County Attorney Cuyler discussed the fact
~..' that the Sales Tax, if adopted, could not be used to supplant the ad
valorem tax now in place, and Mr. Cuyler indicated that under the pro-
posed tnterlocal agreement to be drawn up with the School, should the
Special Ac~ be approved, the agreement would have to stipulate that
Page 38
April 10, 1990
the Sales Tax is not a measure to reduce ad valorem t~xea.
Commissioner Volpe Indicated that the other area of concern Is
state roads, noting that one of the alternatives that has been
discussed ts a fallback posltion of a County-wAde Special Assessment
District to fund state roads, and using Finance Director Yonkosky's
calculations, Commissioner Volpe determined that the Ancrease tn taxes
would be $221 per capita County-wide.
The following persons spoke tn favor of the Sales Tax Referendum:
Mr. Dudley Goodlette
Mr. Harold L. Hall
Mayor Carlton Butler (Everglades City)
Mr. Richard Clemmer
Mr. Mike Slayton
Col. John E. Beebe, Jr.
Mr. Bill Barton
Mr. Michael McComas
Mr. Kevtn Hale
Mr. Bruce Anderson
Those persons speaking in favor of the tax cited the following:
the Local Option Infrastructure Sales Tax Committee recommended that
the Board look lnto adopting a SpecAal Act some months ago as a pre-
caution; the position of the Florida Association of County's will have
no lmpact on the Leglslature; the County should be prepared to deter-
mine how their schools will be supported and not leave this decision
up to the State Legislature; that the Board undertake to land addA-
tlonal sources of revenue including a productivity analysis, the
increase in impact fees, a Bed Tax referendum be held, and that the
Sales Tax be brought to referendum; there has been no ma3or paving or
drainage improvement for roads in the Everglades City area in 32
years; there has been no improvements to the Everglades City Public
Facilities tn 30-35 years; that the Sales Tax referendum should
Include a cap and the Core Projects should be publicized; that the
referendum be held In September to allow the School Board to have use
of the funds, and that the tax be proposed for a 10 year period, with
an addttlonal five years If needed, subject to an additional vote; the
Sales Tax represents a fair way for those who do not pay the ad
Page 3 9
i~i/v&lorem., tax to pay their portion In support of local government needs;
that the tax referendums should be held but in the years that are
general election years thus saving tax dollars that are normally spent
for special elections, and insuring s larger turnout; in the face of
the Growth Management Plan, the funds will be necessary; that the tax
will supplement impact fees because the large builders pay the tax on
building supplies and materials.
The following persons spoke tn opposition to
Mr. Ira Evans
Mr. George Keller
Mrs. Emily Maggto
the Sales Tax Referendum:
Those persona speaking In opposition to the tax cited the
following: there is no written plan to present to the voters on how
the proposed revenues are to be spent; the sales tax is restricted by
law to Capital Improvements; the ad valorem tax is still open
','.:, ended; that the proposed reduction in millage ad valorem taxes by the
j'. School Board in return for a percentage of the sales tax is not legal
i,.-. and there can be no reduction in ad valorem taxes as originally thought;
...
~.,i there is no vehicle in place to demonstrate accountability on the
County's part for the taxes collected.
i!:.ii.., Mr. Egon Hill and Mrs. Charlotte Westman along with the many
~ti{: .:' other speakers, endorsed placing the referendum on a ballot and
allowing the public to decide on the adoption of the Sales Tax,
stating that the lay voter should be able to ascertain what is being
voted on in lay terms.
Colonel Beebe indicated he favored the appointment of a committee
to watch the spending of the Sales Tax dollars.
Rev~ewing the Ordinance as proposed, Gommissioner Volpe observed
that there is a provision that says the monies can be used to service
new bonded indebtedness or to retire or service prior bonds issued
prior to 1987.
Mr. McLemore Indicated this was a statutory statement, noting that
the State provides that the money can be bonded and used to retire old
indebtedness.
Page 40
Commissioner Volpe asked if there were outstanding bonds that the
County wanted to retire by the use of this tax7
County Attorney Cuyler confirmed that the County has not iden-
tified any bonds that they want to retire, but that the statement
could be removed if the Board so desired,
Co~selon~r Saunders ~oved, seconded by Co~a~ssioner Goodn~ght
·nd cai-tied S/O that the Public .earing be closed.
Indicating that he would like further discussion on the term
options, Commissioner Shanahan noted that a new term of 6 years with a
6 year renewal option has been mentioned, which would allow the
referendum to coincide with general election years and save tax
dollars.
Mr. McLemore noted that this would not substantially help the cash
flow, however Commissioner Hasse responded that the 6 year and 6 year
renewal proposal would help the voting in an election year.
Commissioner Shanahan clarified his statement by Indicating he
was seeking the best possible chance for a successful referendum.
Mr. Dorrtll advised the Commissioners that the easiest way to pass
the referendum Is to go with five years and then ask for an additional
five. Mr. Dorrlll atated that the problem with this type of a
referendum is that the times when various roads fall belo~ level of
service, the time it takes to build a road, will create concurrency
problems.
Mr. Dorrtll stated that the best option ts the ten year option
with a cap.
''' D~puty Clerk Hoft~an replaced Deputy Clerk NcClenathen
at thin tlmm ,,,
Commissioner Shanahan suggested that a term be provided Indicating
that when this issue comes back for a vote again, it would not be a
Special Election so that an additional $I00,000-$200,000 would not be
spent.
County Manager Dorrtll stated that if the money comes in at a rate
greater than what the economists projected, the collection of the
006[ 0080
Page
.,;,<.. April 10, 1990
~¥e ~" '"
~i'- money should be discontinued as soon as the necessary amounts are
~ received for the projects as identified.
Couissioner Shanahan noted that Point 3 needs to be restructured
since there have been discussions relative to adding additional pro-
Jects if revenues exceed projections. He questioned whether this
would be the appropriate time to consider the possibility of addinG
the CREW Trust?
Commissioner Saunders questioned whether the Commission would acc-
ept the addition of a Regional Park to the list of projects? He noted
that there ts a definitive need for this, and it is something that the
County will be unable to get without this type of funding source. He
noted that Public Services Administrator O'Donnell has indicated that
approximately $10-$1§ million will need to be acquired to begin
construction of such a park.
Com~tssioner Hasse stated that he feels that the Crew project and
the Regional Park are worthwhile, but questions the projections, since
they will be coming out of the pockets of the taxpayers of Collier
County.
Commissioner Saunders stated that he has consistently voted
against putting this issue on the ballot since he did not believe that
the needs were not sufficiently identified, and there was not com-
iaunit¥ support, but noted that he believes that it is time to submit
this issue to the voters. He noted that there is now an agreement
with the School Board, and the Blue Ribbon Committee voted to support
presenting this issue on the ballot.
Commissioner Hasse stated that he feels that November ks the ideal
time to present this issue to the voters.
Commissioner Shanahan remarked that because of the mitigating car-
cumstances that have been brought to the attention of the Commission,
he believes that September 4th should be considered as the date of the
referendum.
Commissioner Volpe noted that all along, he has been asking for
Justification, specific needs that are specifically identified, and
00 £10081
Page 42
April 10, 1990
the reason as to why sales tax is the reasonable alternative. He
~'~ advised that unfortunately, he is still not satisfied. He related
'~ that it is uncertain as to whether or not $174 million can be spent
for schools; supportive of beach renourtshment, but uncertain whether
i! the sales tax should be the funding mechanism; alternative to imposing
· a moratorium has not been sufficiently identified; and insufficient
~(. Justification for including funding of the Jails.

Commissioner Volpe questioned where the additional $25 million for
the Crew lands and the regional park will be coming from?
Commissioner Saunders replied that one of the areas on the list of
projects to be funded ts $48 million for County Roads, and noted that
impact fees may need to be Increased, and therefore, that not as much
money will be needed. He'related that he believes that over a 10 year
period, the money will be there, and he feels that the consultants
took a very conservative approach as to what the potential funding
Page 43
April 10, 1990
will be.
County Attorney Cuyler advised that he has r,o problem with
Commissioner Saunders' motion, however, he advised that several
changes need to be Incorporated into the present ordinance. Re noted
that he has no probleu with the Commission setting the changes as
recommended, but suggested that the public hearing be kept open and
continued for a week or two and he will bring back an ordinances with
the changes as incorporated.
Commissioner Shanahan stated that he will be in Tallahassee on

.,SUBJECT TO PETITIONER*S AGREEN~NT AS ANEND~D
Planner Milk informed that the Petitioner is requesting
Provisional Use "A" of the C-3 Zoning District for a bowling alley on
Marco Island. He indicated that lands adjacent to the east and west
are undeveloped commercial property. Land to the north Is semi-
developed commercial property, and land to the south is undeveloped
residential property.
Mr. Milk explained that the Petitioner is proposing to construct
and operate a 20 lane bowling alley with a kitchen/snack bar and
~ .:'.. Page 44
April 10, 1990
.'-'"'J~ lounge within the building. He reported that the proposed facility
will be open for operation seven days per week, noting that the site
is approximately 1.56 acres and is located within a designated
Activity Center.
Mr. Mt]k related that the Collier County Planning Commission held
their public hearing on March 15, 1990, and a motion with a recommen-
datlon of denial did not carry (4/4).
Mr. Milk stated that based upon the character of the area, and
with the recommended mitigation measures, Staff has no objection to
the request and recommends approval.
In answer to Commissioner Volpe, Mr. Milk informed that on April
4, 1990, Planning Services Manager Baginski determined that the ext-
sting commercial child care center, located within a designated
Activity Center and across the street from the proposed bowling alley
site ts a private, for profit commercial business, and therefore, due
to the commercial integrity of the child care business the bowling
alley and the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption
would become exempt from Section 8.11 of Ordinance 82-2. He indicated
that the child care center would not constitute a school, church,
public park or playground.
Mr. Milk advised that Staff is recommending approval, subject to
the stipulations as contained in the Petitioner's Agreement Sheet.
Commissioner Hasse questioned the number of parking spaces that
will be allocated at the site? Mr. Milk replied that there will be
.:'. 126 parking spaces.
Commissioner Shanahan noted that he has received complaints rela-
tive to the hours of operation, late night activity, flashing neon
st~ns, lights, traffic, etc. He questioned whether the lounge will
remain open after the bowling alley ha~ closed7
Mrs. Cynthia Zwerin, Petitioner, stated that she does not believe
that there will any problems as cited by Commissioner Shanahan. She
noted that the sign will be whatever the County allows, and the intent
is that this facility will be a family oriented business. She advised
00 CI0084
Page 45

?:!?ii~'~..that aha is uncertain as to whether or not the lounge will actually be
a part of the facility. She noted that she does not feel that the
lounge is an issue that needs to be addressed at this time, since a
full aet of plans baa not yet been developed.
Mr. Milk explained that permitted uses within the 0-3 District
include liquor stores, restaurants and department stores.
Commissioner Volpe raised concerns about the environmentally sen-
sitive ]ands encompassinG the site.
Mr. Terry Kepple, of Bruce Green and Associates, advised that a
road has recently been constructed behind the proposed site, and has
land-locked the mangroves. He noted that there is no way to preserve
the mangroves. He remarked that this is part of the Deltona
Settlement Agreement which allowed removal of those mangroves, and
they (Deltona) in turn, deeded 15,000 acres of wetlands to the State.
Ne stated that some of the native vegetation will be relocated.
Mr. Jeff Zwertn stated that the proposed facility will not be a
hang out for alcohol or drug abusers. He noted that the people of
Marco Island will be able to enjoy the recreation of bowling without
having to travel a distance of 28 miles or further.

'..' · center in Naples, and back to Marco Island at night. He noted that he
is currently the president of a bowling league, with 4§% of the par-
tlclpants being senior citizens. He affirmed that these people are
<: not in the habit of squealing their tires when leaving the bowling
Mr. George Tifft, resident of Marco Island, stated that it is a
life threatening situation to drive from Marco to the nearest bowling
center. He indicated that he circulated a petition on Marco Island
asking for support of or disapproval of a bowling alley located on SR
92 between Covewood and Balmoral Street. He noted that out of the 529
signatures, there is only 1 disapproval.
Mr. Eugene Martin, resident of Marco, stated that he lives a short
distance from the proposed bowling alley, and he was unaware of the
aforementioned petition. He noted that he is opposed to the proposed
facility for the following reasons: noise, day care center across the
Page 46

:~,',. street, it will be a hang out residential abutts the commercial area,
and an establishment with on-site consumption o.~ alcoholic beverages
will become a magnet for every teenager and trouble maker for miles
around.
Mr. Guy Emerson, stated that he lives approximately 500' from the
proposed site. He explained that he moved into his new home about
1-1/2 months ago, and is shocked to learn of the bowling alley. He
raised concerns relative to the children at the day care center,
noise, too close to residential, and disorderly intoxication.
Ms. Mary Jo Byers remarked that she questions who will support the
bowling facility, and noted that there have been other activities on
the Island that have not been supported, i.e. the movie theater. She
commented that an earlier agenda item addressed the need for a
Childrens, Council, and now a bowling facility with a lounge is pro-
posed at a location across the street from a day care center. She
suggested that there be an architectural review to protect the neigh-
borhood.
Commissioner Vo/pe questioned the type of buffering that will be
required between the site and the single fam/1y res/dent/al lots? Mr.
Milk replied that the Petitioner shall provide a six foot high opaque
sound proof fence, located within a fully landscaped ten foot buffer
strip along the entire rear yard property line.
Commissioner Saunders commented that he believes that it would be
better if the fence was lO feet from the property line with lO feet of
buffering on the outside. He stated that L' of buffering on the
inside of the fence will not benefit the surroundin~; property owners.
Mr. Milk affirmed that he concurs with Commissioner Saunders'
suggest/on.
Mrs. Zwertn advised that she has been informed that steel
construction at the rear of the building will allow additional insula-
tion to mitigate the noise She stated that she wants to provide the
best possible center for the neighborhood.

I~PI~IITIN(1 DEL'S STORE RI~HT-OF-WAY - SHORT TERM
WITH 30 DAY NOTICE TO VACATE
Mr. Gary Kluckhuhn stated that his Intent ts to establish an ami-
cable solution to allow the Ackerman's and Fayard's not to be singled
out in the act of progress relative to the sacrificial land.
County Attorney Cu¥1er indicated that this is an Item that has
been through the condemnation process, and the County has taken the
site and the adjoining site which iS being appealed. He suggested
that the Commission listen to the discussion, but advised that no
action be taken since litigation ts taking place.
Mr. Kluckhuhn stated that in lieu of litigation, Mr. Ackerman ts
present, in hopes of not having to close the store and Incur the
obvious business Interruption losses as of April 16th, and ts willing
to terminate same, based on an amicable solution.
Mr. Kluckhuhn explained that tn order for the new right-of-way to
be acquired for S.R. 951, it was necessary to take 83' from the east
side of Mr. Ackerman's property, and the 7-11 (Lots 125 and 126). He
remarked that he understands that the total condemnation is predicated
upon environmental impact mitigation and safety factors not to Inter-
fere with the traffic on S.R. 951. He advised that the environmental
mitigation was a controversial subject. He noted that DOT has indi-
cated that in the scenario of a single bustr~ess opposite a road traf-
fic light controlled intersection on a State road, a collector road on
the opposite side will alleviate that problem to some extent.
Mr. Kluckhuhn provided copies of two proposals (not provided to
the Clerk's Office). He called attention to County Proposal "A",
which would move the store to the back on the existing site,' and allow
the southbound traffic tn and out. He noted that DOT does not look
favorably on this plan, since they believe that the Manatee Road traf-
fic cannot access the site, since they will drive over the islands.
Mr. Kluckhuhn stated that DOT has found Proposal "B" to be more
acceptable. He remarked that there are truly viable alternatives to

total condemnat ton.
April 10, 1990
Mr. Kluckhuhn called attention to the fact that the ?-11 site was
awarded $475,000 for the property, and the Del's site was awarded
$290,000. He reported that the square foot price calculates to $17.73
per square foot for the 7-11 site, and $10.50 per square foot for the
Ackerman site. He noted that 10,797 square feet of the 7-11 site Is
vegetated low land, leaving 16,560 square feet of useable land.
Mr. Kluckhuhn Indicated that he understands that four appraisers
were involved in the appraisal assignment. He remarked that Lots 125
and 126 were appraised by different appraisers, and he questions
whether there Is a fair valuation, since he believes that there is a
$200,000 discrepancy.
Mr. Kluckhuhn proposed that from the existing fill line on the
?-11 site, east toward the new right-of-way for SR. 951, the~e is an
83' piece of land that ts hlgh and dry, and ts a butldable site. He
indicated that based on the $17.73 per square foot, the total amount
would be $147,129, and if the County would grant Mr. Ackerman a trade
of that County surplus land, they will have 2?,000 square feet of land
and they could operate their business. He reported that DOT has
reviewed this plan, and view it as a viable alternative.
With regard to duplicating the building, Mr. Kluckhuhn advised
that the 7-11 had 2,600 square feet and Del's had 3,600 square feet;
the ?-11 is a CBS structure; Del's is a steel-framed structure with
wood frame Interior walls and fiberglas insulation. He Informed that
by the time a steel-framed building t8 brought to a u;~eable level for
occupancy, the engineering cost Indicates that there ts a fine line of
replacement between the two buildings. He noted that Del's is a 2
story, 3,600 square foot building against a 2,600 square foot CBS
building, and he falls to see a greater value for the 7-11 parcel.
County Attorney Cuyler advised that this was an Order of Taking
hearing that was an adversary process from an Impartial member of
the Judiciary who made a decision and determined what was tn accor-
dance with the law. He Indicated that he feels that the County has
Page 50

trytnG to work this out.

Nr. Kluckhuhn stated that when the condemnation took place, ~r.
Ackerman believed that the County would be building him a new struc-
ture and moving him back. He explained that he did not have suf-
ficient conversations with the attorneys that were hired by the County
to represent him to know what he had negotiated.
Mr. Kluc~uhn Informed that Mrs. Fayard, who ts Mr. Ackerman's
mother-tn-law and ts also Involved, expressed that she believed that
the land was worth much more but they never had the advantage of coor-
dinating with the attorneys, and he believes that they were 9tven an
unjust rulinG.
Co~ty Attorney Cuyler advised that the County's Eminent Domain
Council does no~ represent Mr. Ackerman, but rather the County and the
County's interest. He Indicated that if there was some failure of
co~tcatlon that somebody needed to talk to someone else and did not
do this, there ts nothtn9 he can say about it. He informed that
office ~d the County's Eminent Domain Council proceeded tn the manner
tn which they were supposed to, and tn this case, the property was
t~en.
Co~tsstoner Saunders stated that he believed that there was
something that could be worked out, and it appears that there ts an
extreme time frame Involved. He suGGested that a lease arrangement be
worked out, since the County owns the land. He questioned whether
a lease could be Implemented stattn~ that Mr. Ackerman would have 60
or 90 days notice to move the building because of the need to beDtn
construction on the road, and he could proceed with his appeal, and
the County could proceed with Its defense of the appeal. He noted
that If agreement cannot be reached between the parties then the
County can proceed and pay the $290,000 Mr. Ackerman would move the
,
building, and It will be the County's land.
Page 51
April 10, 1990
Mr. Kluckhuhn noted that Mr. Ackerman has some improvements ahead
of him if he continues to stay in business, i.e. licenses, etc. He
requested that a conceptual agreement be reached relating to a land
trade of County surplus land in an equal amount to that which Mr.
Ackerman is foregoing.
Commissioner Vo]pe stated that he does not know if this can be
done legally.
County Attorney Cuyler ~ndlcated that he does not know if this
would solve any problems for Mr. Ackerman. He advised that he
understands that there is a court order for Mr. Ackerman to vacate the
property, and the Commission may not have the ability to over ride it
by way of the lease agreement.
Mr. Ackerman reported that he ts hearing some real conflicts. He
noted that Mr. Archibald has been a very big factor in helping him
through this program. He advised that he has never had the oppor-
tunity to address anyone in this government agency about his business.
He informed that the landlord owned the land, and the attorneys dealt
with her, but he and his wife were strictly the managers and the
owners of the bu~iness. He related that there has not been one time
that he had a meeting regarding this issue until Commissioner Saunders
and Mr. Archibald made it possible to do so two weeks ago.
County Attorney Cuyler indicated that because Mr. Ackerman is not
the property owner, he would not be called into an eminent domain
case.
Transportation Services Administrator ~rchlbald noted that the
only issue that the Commission may wish to address today Is whether
the convenience store should continue to operate after Monday, April
16, and if so, Staff could be directed to consider a lease agreement
on a short term basis,
Commissioner Saunders asked Mr. Archibald when he believes the
property will be needed7 Mr. Archibald replied that he feels that the
property will be needed in 6 months or less, and if an agreement is
considered, it should be for a short period of time.
Page 52
April 10, 1990
Com~iseioner Saunders questioned how much notice would be needed
for Mr. Ackerman to vacate the property if he had a lease7 Mr.
Archibald indicated that from his perspective, he would want the
tenant to be out in 30 days or less.
Commissioner Saunders suggested that a short term lease be
established, with a termination provision which states that Mr.
Archibald can give Mr. Ackerman a 30 day notice. He indicated that he
believes that the rental amount should be a nominal amount.
· Commissioner Volpe asked Mr. Ackerman the amount of his monthly
rental, to which he replied $500 per month. Commissioner Wolpe stated
that he does not feel that the County should accept anything less than
$500 per month.
Commissioner Saunders advised that he has no problem with
Commissioner Volpe's suggestion.
C~UmAOeiOner Saundero moved, ~econded b~Com~isoAoner Sba·aha·,
'that · short term lease be drafted for the Chairman's 8igna~ur· pro-
vidin~ for a $500 per month rental fee; providing a 30 day notice
peried for vacation of the propert-F; and An the interim, the Count~
Attorney to to proceed with the appeal.
Commissioner Volpe suggested that in drafting up the short term
lease, that the County Attorney track the obligations in terms of the
maintenance responsibilities and any other current obligations since
the County should not have any responsibility with respect to main-
taininG that property.

MARCO B~,&CIlf UB"IT #7 - PROPKRTY OWNKR: RK¢~INA BALCKJ~7-A~'
County Manager Dorrtl] stated that this Item ts a public petition
on behalf of Mrs. Balcerzak who ts appealing a lien associated with
&b&ttng a public nuisance and mowing weeds on a lot on Marco Island.
Mrs. Regina Balcerzak stated that she has owned this particular
lot for 12 years and has checked it every year up to 1983 at which
time she retired. She stated that since 1983 she has spent more time
In Florida and has kept a closer watch on this lot. She indicated
that In 1986 she was notified that the seawall on her property had
collapsed and she had it repaired at a cost of $2,000. She Indicated
that in 1987 she received a bill for $3,000 for sewer service that was
brought to her lot, adding that in 1988, she patd $800 to clear pepper
bushes that were growing around two palm trees on her lot. She noted
that she has been a concerned, caring and responsible owner. She
stated that her taxes went from $400 to over $1,000 in 1989. She
Indicated that she received a letter In February, 1990, with regards
to a notice that she was suppose to have received in September, 1989,
which never reached her. She reported that in October, 1989, she was
In Naples and checked her lot, adding that there was no problem with
her lot at that time. She stated that the ad3acent neighbor told her
that he has not seen anyone mowing any lot and she further indicated
that she was on the lot again in December and January and the lot does
not look any different now than It did in the spring of 1989. She
stated that the County took this matter upon themselves to correct a
nuisance without giving the owner a chance to remedy this matter, if
it existed. She stated that she has come over 1,100 miles to attend
this hearing because she feels that an injustice is being done. She
stated that she took pictures of her lot upon arriving tn Naples the
previous day and there is nothing on her lot that could be cut. She
indicated that the only thing she has growing on her lot are wild
April lO, 1990
impatiences, which were measured with a rule and the tallest one was
14 inches. She indicated that the only other thing on the lot that
could be cut are pepper plants, adding that she has some growing
around the palm trees again. She stated that before she pays any
money she would like to see the bill and would also like to talk with
the person that mowed the property to see what was done for the $45.00
that she ts being charged. She stated that she feels that she Is a
victim of circumstances and has been dealt with unfairly and all costs
ahould be abated along with the lien that has been placed on her pro-
. perry.
Community Development Services Administrator Brutt stated that he
was provided with a copy of this letter last week and Staff put
together an information packet, adding that the notice of the nuisance
abatement was sent to the address according to the records of the Tax
Office, but the certified letter was refused on September 8, 1989. He
stated that the lot was mowed on September 25, 1989, by CM&S
Contracting Company on Marco Island, and then failing to abate the
nuisance, the County sent a notice out for payment and the payment was
not received, therefore, the lien process was started for the $45.00
mowing charge plus the $75.00 administrative fee. He indicated that
photographs were taken before and after the lot was cut showing the
condition and location and when the owner visited the lot in October,
she saw a well mowed lot. He reported that the final invoice of
October 20, 1989, has not been paid and the lien proceedings have
· moved ahead. He Indicated that as of April 3, 1990, the lot again
needed cutting.
Mrs. Balcerzak stated that she never received a certified letter
tn September, 1989, but she did receive one tn March, 1990.
Commissioner Hasse stated that if the Board ts suppose to Judge
this case, they should have the before and after pictures which is a
foregone conclusion. He stated that there Is no Justification for the
Board to take any action on this matter.
Commissioner Volpe stated that Staff made a determination that
Page 55
:~.:'there was a violation and they have performed the work and the County
has incurred the expenses.
Mr. Brutt stated that he will stand with his Staff that went to
the site and had the lot mowed and went through the lien process.
Commissioner Rasse stated that he would like to have this matter
continued, and County Manager Dorrill stated that he does not see a
need to continue this matter, adding that he could be authorized to
review the case file and if the pictures are there and prove the
matter, he will take care of this.

Transportation Services Administrator Archibald stated that on
Friday, it is very possible that the operator of the airport, Bar
Harbour and possibly the Deltona Corporation may turn the keys to the
airport over to the Department of Natural Resources and as a result,
leave the airport unmanned. He stated that if this occurs, it is
important for the Board to be apprised of that and to consider a
standby position to keep the airport in operation. He stated that he
has prepared a resolution as well as an overview of the activities at
the Marco site. He indicated that the Maruo Island Airport has a
substantial infrastructure, noting that there are five employees that
are operating the airport and there is a fairly substantial fueling
operation. He stated that he tried to outline an expenditure revenue
picture for a 30 day period if the Board decides to operate this site.
Ne indicated that the employees would have to be put on the County
payroll as contract employees for a period of one month and during
that time, Staff would be able to better determine the expenditures
and the revenues and also to give the DNR time to make a final deci-
000, CJ3!08
Page 56
Apri} 10, 1990
~;'.~ eton as to whether or not they want to operate the Airport or would
prefer the County to operate the airport as a lessee. He stated that
he is suggesting that the Board could consider the posttlon of keeping
the airport in operation as of this weekend. He referred to the
expenses of the employees which maybe in the realm of $6,000 for one
month, noting that there are three employees that are necessary to
consider on a contractual basts. He stated that the fuel cost would
be about $5,000 and there would be about $9,000 for miscellaneous
expenses. He indicated that one such miscellaneous expense would be
to provide insurance coverage for the County for a 12 month period.
He indicated that the County's worst exposure would be around $20,000
for a month, adding that the revenue could be more than $20,000 but
'! could be as low as $12,000. He stated that the dilemma is that the
expenditures and revenues do not match but if tile County does take
over the airport for a short time, he feels that expenditures and
revenues will come close to matching by selling more fuel. He stated
that the fueling operation is a large revenue producer on an annual
basis.
In answer to Commissioner Volpe, County Manager Dorrill stated
that the Board would need to authorize Staff to operate the facility
under an agreement with the existing staff at the existing location
for a period not to exceed one month. He stated that the State will
have to give their consent and/or lease. He indicated that the
existing lease ceases to exist on April 13, 1990, and he does not
understand why the DNR has not made a decision on this matter.
Mr. Archibald stated that he has sent DNR a lease to consider,
adding that they are considering the lease and they know that they
have to make a decision by the end of the week. He noted that the
Risk Management Department has also revtewed this matter.
Commissioner Shanahan stated that there is a real need to keep
this airport open and this could be a real opportunity for the Board.

Stan Lltstnger, Growth ~anaGement Director, stated that there
an advertised public hearing set for April 24, 1990, to adopt the
remedial amendments to the Growth ~anagement Plan pursuant to the
County's stipulated agreement with DCA. He stated that he understands
that only three Commissioners ~tll be available on April 24, 1990, and
these ~endments re~tre a 5/0 vote because it ts an emergency amend-
ment. He stated that the purpose of this Item ts to consider optional

five Co~tsstoners Is May 8, 1990. He stated that he has contacted
DCA ~d they have no problem with a two week extension until May
1990.
