B. Parks & Recreation Impact Fee Study [Amy Patterson] Ms. Patterson presented the "Parks and Recreation Impact Fee Study"which outlined proposed Impact Fee Rates and the backup document"Collier County "Parks and Recreation Impact Fee Update Study Final Report"prepared by Tindale Oliver and Associates dated September 25, 2015. She reported Mr. Valle could not be present,but submitted 4 comments for consideration to be discussed at the meeting as follows: 1. The proposal was developed absent of an updated Parks and Recreation Master Plan. Committee 4 October 7,2015 Concern the Plan is outdated and there is no clear indication of how the increase in proposed fees is to be spent. Staff • The Master Plan was adopted in 2011 and the proposed rates are linked to the most recent Annual Update Inventory Report. • Some of the funds will be used to pay prior debt service obligations and Big Corkscrew Regional Park is the next park in line to be constructed. • The Master Plan will be updated and the debt service payments are mainly for the costs incurred for North Collier Regional Park. • Parks by nature are not self sustaining from the revenues they generate and require funding sources outside the user fees to operate. 2. No correlation in the proposed rates with the level of service proposed. Committee • Concern the County adopted a Level of Service that does not account for lands held by the Federal and Local Government(Everglades National Park,Beaches, etc.). These lands are available for use by the public that should be utilized in the analysis. • Local schools have expanses of land available for public use but remain unopened to the public which may contribute to the Level of Service as well. • Including these lands in the analysis may assist in reducing the burden on the County for provision of recreational opportunities. • The County should consider developing a"de facto"Level of Service for information purposes that includes all lands available for public use. • Concern the equity of the system as impact fees are assessed against a select group of the County population,while the benefits are derived by all residents. • Concern on the basis used for the land cost estimate does it include the amount of lands in the existing inventory available for expanded services. Staff The Level of Service as adopted by the Board of County Commissioners is embedded in the proposed Impact Fees and the Parks and Recreation Division does have interlocal agreements with the School District for public use of the properties,mainly Elementary schools. 3. The expenditure of the fees should be linked to the geographic area the fees were generated. Committee The funds should be expended in the geographic area they are being generated to directly benefit those paying. Staff • Historically,the County balances the needs throughout the County when expending the funds. • The fees generated in the Estates area did help fund North Collier Regional Park. • The Big Corkscrew Regional Park is the next park in line to be constructed which will be funded from monies received throughout the County. 5 October 7, 2015 • Regional parks do draw users from the entire County and benefit all residents given the large variation of activities available at the sites. • The construction of Manatee Park and Vanderbilt Beach Little League facility are on the horizon. • Eagle Lakes Park now has a community center with an Aqua Center planned for the facility. 4. Concern Impact fees were deferred during the downturn and the reinstatement to previous levels should offset the need for a percentage increase. DSAC Subcommittee Members reported they reviewed the item,however the emphasis was on fact finding with no recommendation forwarded to the full Committee for consideration. Staff noted the item will be heard by the BCC and queried if the Committee wants to make a recommendation on the item. Mr. Mulhere moved to recommend the Board of County Commissioners adopt the "Parks and Recreation Impact Fee Update"subject to consideration being given to reducing the Level of Service based on other considerations such as the availability of private and public lands in the County for recreation and those facilities located at County School lands. Second by Mr. Brooker. Discussion occurred noting the Board of County Commissioners cannot alter the Level of Service unless there is a legal impediment. Parties previously paid impact fees based on an adopted Level of Service and would anticipate the funds will be expended to meet those needs. Barry Williams,Director,Parks and Recreation suggested the motion be formulated to recommend the analysis on potentially reducing the adopted Levels of Service be undertaken during the next AUIR review. Mr. Mulhere amended the motion to recommending the Board of County Commissioners adopt the "Parks and Recreation Impact Fee Update"subject to consideration being given to reducing the Level of Service based on other considerations such as the availability of private and public lands in the County for recreation and those facilities located at County School lands. Said analysis for a reduction being undertaken during the next AUIR update. Second by Mr. Brooker. Motion carried 8 "yes"—5 "no." Mr.Disney,Mr. Foley,Mr. Gentry,Mr. Chrzanowski and Mr. Dunnavant voted "no." D. Updates,forms and policy [Jonathan Walsh] (this item was heard before item C) Mr. Walsh reported he is developing"Bulletins"to assist in educating the public on the requirements for specific activities. He submitted the following Drafts (Florida Building Code 5" Edition (2014) -Bulletin #4 Solar Permits; Florida Building Code 5t"Edition (2014) -Bulletin #5: Change in Design Professional; Florida Building Code 5t"Edition (2014) -Bulletin #6: Threshold Projects; Florida Building Code 5th Edition (2014)—Temporary Certificate of Occupancy Requirements; Permit by Affidavit and Certificate of Completion by Affidavit)which he is working on and updated the Committee on the rationale for the endeavor. 6 October 7, 2015 He is also updating the County's"FAQ for Building Review"and Members with suggestions for items to be included should contact Staff. Sub Affirmation Forms Mr.Walsh reported Staff is reviewing the process to determine any changes required for the forms as copies and faxes are accepted,however they are receiving a high volume of forms that appear to be"robo notarized." Notice of Commencement Mr. Walsh noted the forms may be filed at with the Growth Management Department and the County Clerks Office. They are reviewing the process to ensure all details are properly addressed when the forms are submitted, especially given the County Clerk's Office do not typically deal with these forms and may not be aware of the specific requirements to be included in a valid notice. C. Notice of Commencement& Permit Applications [Claudine Auclair] Ms.Auclair reported the item was addressed under item VI.C. E. Architectural and Site Design Standards [Jeremy Frantz] Mr. Frantz addressed the Council noting the Architectural and Site Design Standards Committee was appointed by the Board of County Commissioners to review and recommend changes to Section 5.05.08 of the Land Development Code. The Committee met over the period of two years and their review was completed in September of 2015. He requested the proposed amendment be remanded to the Land Development Code Subcommittee for their review and recommendation. The Committee determined Mr. Foley,Mr.Disney and Mr.Mulhere should sit on the Subcommittee for this item. VIII. Old Business A. Update on subcommittee for Preliminary Utilities acceptance process [Jack McKenna] Mr.McKenna and Mr.Beals provided an update on the Subcommittee noting they held their initial meeting and identified topics to be addressed in the process. The County Attorney's Office will be involved given many of items have legal ramifications given the County is accepting infrastructure from private parties. IX. Committee Member Comments None X.

BACKGROUND: The Collier County Growth Management Plan, particularly the Drainage and Natural Groundwater Aquifer Recharge sub-elements of the Public Facilities Element, requires that the drainage systems have adequate stormwater management capacity at the time a development permit is issued, and that the system be designed "to ensure that the final outlet point has the adequate capacity to handle all discharges from the upstream portion of the watershed under conditions present at the time of design". The ordinances also state that "allowable off-site discharge rates shall be computed using a storm event of 3-day duration and 25-year return frequency." Accordingly, the County had established maximum allowable off-site discharge rates for several of the basins served by the drainage canal network per ordinance 1990-01, and revised by Ordinance 2001-27. These ordinances set an allowable discharge rate of 0.15 cfs/acre for all areas in the County, except for six basins and sub-basins that are subject to specific discharge limitations. The Conservation and Coastal Management Element of the 1989 Collier County Comprehensive Plan required that the County develop a watershed management plan by January 1993. After postponement for several years, the Board of County Commissioners sponsored development of a comprehensive Collier County Watershed Management Plan (CCWMP) and accepted it in 2011. The unit discharge rates adapted in the earlier ordinances were based on preliminary hydraulic analyses. Detailed hydraulic modeling for evaluation of the design storm conveyance capacity of the canal network performed as a part of the CCWMP updated the maximum allowable discharge rates for all of the basins. In the interim two additional detailed stormwater management master plans, developed jointly by SFWMD and the County for the Belle Meade and lmmokalee areas in 2005, recommended limiting discharge rates for the basins/sub-basins within those planning areas. Therefore, an amendment to Ordinance 2001-27 is necessary to meet the long standing commitments of the Growth Management Plan by incorporating the limiting discharge rates proposed in CCWMP and the two stormwater master plans. The changed limiting discharge rates may lead to slight cost increases to new developments in a few selected basins. However, the following benefits should outweigh any cost impact to new land development activities. • Improved Levels of Service (LOS) for flood protection provided by SFWMD and County operated canals • Enhanced Groundwater Recharge Potential • Restored Hydrology and wetlands hydroperiod • Water Quality Improvement of receiving waters Page 1of2 Stormwater Planning Growth Management Department Co er cmnatty • Reduction of freshwater flows to the estuaries • Gain consistency in Environmental Resource Permitting (SFWMD and County). The proposed Ordinance 2001-27 changes are indicated below in strice-through and underline format. Current Six Specific Discharge Limitation Basins Rate 1. Airport Road North Sub-Basin 0.04 cfs/acre (North of Vanderbilt Beach Road) 2. Airport Road South Sub-basin 0.06 cfs/acre (South of Vanderbilt Beach Road) 3. Cocohatchee Canal Basin 0.04 cfs/acre 4. Lely Canal Basin 0.06 cfs/acre 5. Harvey Basin 0.05 0.06 cfs/acre (Recommend rounding off to hundredths place) 6. Wiggins Pass Basin 0.13 cfs/acre Proposed Additional Basins 7. Henderson Creek Belle Meade Basin 0.06 cfs/acre (North of Sabal Palm Rd.) 8. Henderson Creek Belle Meade Basin (South of Sabal Palm Road) 0.04 cfs/acre 9. Immokalee Master Plan Area (East of 0.05 cfs/acre SR 29) 10. Immokalee Master Plan Area (West of 0.10 cfs/acre SR 29) 11. CR 951 North Canal Basin 0.11 cfs/acre 12. C4 Basin 0.11 cfs/acre 13. Corkscrew Canal Basin 0.04 cfs/acre 14. Cypress Canal Basin 0.06 cfs/acre 15. Faka Union Canal Basin (North of 1-75) 0.09 cfs/acre 16.

Main Golden Gate Canal Basin 0.04 cfs/acre 21. Palm River Canal Basin 0.13 cfs/acre 22. Pine Ridge Canal Basin 0.13 cfs/acre All other conditions of Ordinance 2001-27 will remain in effect. Page 2 of 2 2015 BCC Collier County Affordable Housing Advisory Committee,Community and Human Services Division,Growth Management Department DRAFT 2015 INCENTIVE REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION REPORT]] THIS DRAFT IS NOT A FINALIZED DRAFT. VERY IMPORTANT. THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING ADVISORY COMMITTEE MEETS AGAIN AT 8 AM ON FRIDAY 10/30/15. THEREFORE,THE ATTACHED DOES NOT CONTAIN THE FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE COMMITTEE. DUE TO THE DEADLINE TO PREPARE DOCUMENTS FOR THE DSAC MEETING,THE LAST PUBLISHED DRAFT IS BEING SUPPLIED TO GENERATE DISCUSSION. THE AHAC AND STAFF WELCOME FURTHER INPUT FROM THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY. Draft 2015 Incentive Review and Recommendation Report Executive Summary In March 2015, staff of the Community and Human Services Division (CHS) along with the Affordable Housing Advisory Committee (AHAC) presented at an Affordable Workforce Housing workshop held by the Board of County Commissioners(BCC). Key data was provided that included*: • There is a projected need for additional affordable workforce rental units to maintain currency with population increases • Recognition that housing is affordable to a household when no more than 30% of its income is designated for housing related costs,whether rental or owned • 43% of Collier residents spend more than 30% on housing, and about half of that group (22%) actually spend more than 50%of their income on housing • About 2/3 of the County population has a household income of less than approximately $70,000 which would likely allow them to get into a home at approximately$200,000 • That monthly rental rates have been rising, and there are very low vacancy rates • That long term data shows we are heading into the same situation we had in the mid to late 2000's with income relatively flat and housing prices rising quickly,therefore reducing overall affordability As follow up to the workshop, in June 2015, the BCC approved (1)the Affordable/Workforce Housing Population Based Index Model Methodology, (2) reinstatement of the suspended Impact Fee Deferral Program for single family residences, (3) direction to retain previously approved density bonus units in Planned Unit Developments, and (4) directing staff to work with AHAC and the community to bring back parameters for Gap Housing. At the workshop,they had also requested staff work with the AHAC, and all interested parties, in development of additional incentives for affordable workforce housing to be presented for their approval no later than December 2015**. Since that time the AHAC and staff have held several public committee meetings, conducted extensive research, and developed the following draft slate of affordable workforce housing incentives and programs. Specifically, the AHAC held a public forum on Friday,August 14th to obtain public input on the incentives being considered at that time. There was a broad invitation distribution listing, and good response. It was noted after the forum that the development community was under represented, so staff and AHAC requested to meet with the Development Services Advisory Committee (DSAC) on November 4th, and members of the Collier Building Industry Association (CBIA) in November, to obtain their input. Staff also presented to the Chamber of Commerce Public Policy committee on this topic, and at a United Way sponsored Affordable Workforce Housing Forum on October 1st. At that event, many large employers and many elected officials were represented, showing their interest in this topic, as well as interest in working together toward a solution set. The following draft slate of incentives and programs is segmented into three categories: (1) Maintain or enhance current incentives and programs, (2) New Incentives Recommended, and (3) Do not pursue. Within the first two categories, they are further given an A-B-C level priority. The reader will see that the new recommendations, in most cases, require further study and or definition prior to implementation, if the BCC recommends moving forward. *Data and presentation available upon request **As a recipient of SHIP funds, the County must submit a report triennially identifying their priorities for furthering affordable workforce housing. The County must submit the next report by December 2015. This does not preclude further analysis or solutions after this date.

A Y Accessory Dwelling Not specifically a current incentive. Maintain current quest house code,only Units-The allowance of affordable residential However,the committee concluded that the use of units in residential zoning these units,sometimes referred to as mother-in-law districts suites,already exists in the code under the term "guest cottage". These can be affordable to meet the needs of elderly relatives as a means of affordable housing. Should ADU be pursued,the Land Development Code(LDC)and the Comprehensive Plan would have to be examined to identify current policies that would negatively impact or restrict their use;also difficult to evaluate infrastructure needs with ADU's and difficult to determine the impact on roads. There is offsetting potential to collect impact fees on the accessory dwelling.The committee recognizes that this is a best practice across the country.
