focus on another project. The project area selected will most likely be the Lake
Trafford Road area.
Mr. Estil Null would like for staff to look into the area of North 9th Street. Mr.
Sainvilus announced that he is already looking into that area. He is having AMEC
do a design for us. We are hoping to have the MSTU fund that project.
Ms. Andrea Halman said there is also a ditch from Lake Trafford to 11th Street. The

I. Red Flag Items.
1. Open Air Market
Staff announced that one speaker slip was turned in on this topic. The two public
members that don't speak English (only speak Creole) will respond to the board via
translator (Mr. James Sainvilus) if they should have questions for them. They are
tenants from Mr. Daniel Gonzalez open air market. Staff announced that the first
speaker was Mr. David Esquivel.
Mr. David Esquivel said that he has a SDP. Staff said that is a Site Development
Plan.
Mr. Joseph Mucha, Code Enforcement Investigator said that his department met with
Mr. David Esquivel about two weeks ago and explained to him that he needed to
take down the tent frames. Mr. Mucha said that Mr. Esquivel asked for a little time
to remove the tent frames. Mr. Mucha also addressed the parking issue with him and
he also asked for more time with that issue because he is in the process of trying to
make his property across the street into a parking lot for his open air market.
Mr. Frank Nappo asked, "What do you mean by a little time"?
Mr. Mucha asked Mr. Esquivel "How much time do you need"? he said, "Whatever
times the county takes maybe a year".

CRA Staff read Ray Bellows email in which he said that in his August 7th e-mail I
noted that the subject property is zoned MSOSD which allows for the outdoor
display of merchandise on improved commercial property subject to SDP approval.
Even though the zoning overlay doesn't address tents, there should be an approved
SDP that may provide more information concerning any requirement that the tents
can remain up on the property all week or if they are required to be removed. If there
is no SDP, then the tents would have to be removed each night unless some other
approval is given such as a temporary use permit.
Mr. Mucha said the Mr. David Esquivel's SDP doesn't allow for tent frames to be
left up all week. Tent frames have to be removed after each event. Mr. Esquivel
asked for some time for him to make arrangements to remove the tent frames. Mr.
Mucha said we are trying to work with him.
Mr. Nappo said that there has to be some parameters 15 days, 30 days, 60 days I
mean what time frame are we talking about?
Mr. Mucha said that if the event ends Sunday they should come down after the event
on Sunday. I know that there were some concerns about other vendors being out
there. We sent code investigators out there on the weekends and we addressed the
poachers and illegal people (not permitted) that are setting up. I know that it's going
to be an ongoing issue and we will continue to address it. When I met with Mr.
Esquivel he also had issues about parking with RCMA and other areas like that. It is
not just him and Mr. Daniel Gonzalez we are trying to address everything.
Mr. Nappo said the bottom line is that on Friday tent frames get set up and on
Sunday tent frames go down.
Mr. Mucha said that the tent frame issue needs to be resolved immediately.
Mr. Nappo agreed that the tent frames need to go up and down only during the event
of the open air flea markets.
Ms. Andrea Halman asked if the tent frames are hard to come down and go up.
The two tenants Ms. Ivetter Fleurisma and Ms. Marieh Celesin that are present today
said that it is an inconvenience because it takes time and labor to put the frames up
and down and sometimes it is just them setting up.
Ms. Carrie Williams said she said that nobody is attacking the flea markets we (as
past board members and community activist) just have had complaints with local
businesses that the frames are left out all week.
Mr. Nappo asked Mr. Esquivel to stand and said that there is a process a procedure
of how to do these things and this is the CRA board what I would like to suggest to
you and all the folks is not to speak to individuals members who work for the CRA

when you want something done. If it's a matter for this board and you have come
here today you pick up a speaker slip and speak on this matter. If it's a matter for
this board please bring it before the full board.
Mr. Jim Wall said that we have staff and I don't see it as inappropriateness that a
person contact staff and staff determining whether or not it's a board issue.
Mr.Nappo said that the comment was related to how the staff were treated sir.
Ms. Christie Betancourt wanted to clarify that CRA staff was not mistreated by Mr.
Esquivel. CRA staff was trying to ease the situation and a confrontation did happen
before the meeting started between another county staff member and Mr. Esquivel.
Mr. Nappo said instead of doing these side things if you just bring it before the board
and operate in a professional matter. Expect to treat our people the same way.
The two tenants Ms. Ivetter Fleurisma and Ms. Marieh Celesin agreed to remove the
tent frames from Mr. Gonzalez's market on Monday morning a day after their event.
2. Immokalee Regional Aiport Authority—Presentation by Justin Lobb
Mr. Justin Lobb thanked all for the opportunity to speak here today. I spoke back in
late August and answered a couple of questions on some issues that Mr. Courtright
had brought up. I realized that a lot of what we do at the airport is a mystery to the
community and to the board so I wanted to bring some clarity of what we are doing
and where we are going.
Start with the basics what we have here at the airport on the air side is two major
runways that have been here since 1942 when the airport was set as an army facility.
AVIATION
• Runway 9-27
o 5000' x 100'
o Full-length parallel TWY
o LED Lighting System
o Reconstructed in 2014
• Runway 18-36
o 4550' x 150'
o Full-length parallel TWY
o GPS Instrument Approach

FACILITIES
• Hangars
o 30 T-Hangar Units
o 3 Collier County Airport Authority Owned Bulk Hangars
o 3 Privately Owned Hangars
o 100%Leased with waiting list of about 9 individuals waiting for T-
Hangars.

o 2 Incubator Buildings
o Accelerator Kitchen within the northern half of incubator two.
o Manufacturing Warehouse currently occupied Mr. Salazar
o Turbine Testing Facility
o Other, all leased—the Immokalee Raceway, Fletcher Flying
Services,National Guard, etc.
Mr. Muckel wanted to know which building was constructed to be an inspection
facility.
Mr. Lobb pointed to the location on his presentation slide. The building is divided
into three different sections Sheriff's office is in the admin and the western bay and
the Immokalee Raceway occupy the eastern bay.
Mr. Muckel also asked about the scrub jay sanctuary at the airport?
Mr. Lobb briefly discussed the scrub jay sanctuary at the airport.
Mr. Wall asked about the flying breakfast? Mr. Lobb said he organized one back in
September with the Naples pilots associations and we had about 15 aircrafts fly in
and had lunch a Lozano's Activities within the town are they advertised at the
airport.
Mr. Lobb said that we recently established a facebook page and started to advertise
community events. Facebook is generally our most effective tool. During season it
can range from 10 aircraft a day to 30 and 40 more are as a fuel stop for training.
Flight students' discounts utilize the airport as a fuel stop.
Mr. Wall asked Mr. Lobb if he knew what Sun and Fun event was. He continued
saying that it was an annual event up in Lakeland, Florida and it's the second largest
aeronautical event. They have about 20,000 operations

WHAT'S NEXT (in longer terms)
• Runway 18/36 Rehabilitation
• Taxiway B Rehabilitation
• Taxiway C Extension
• Hangar Construction
• Industrial Park Development
Mr. Lobb said that runway 927 is very conceptual and is also going to be more of a
demand based item. This runway is to set to be extended to a length of 10,000 feet.
Mr. Muckel said that you can't just crossover runway 927 extensions. What is
holding this up? This runway extension means jobs and economic development for
Immokalee.
Mr. Lobb said this is a demand driven item. It is contingent upon FAA funding.
Price tag is up in the ends of 10 million.
Mr. Muckel said what if Arthrex came to you and said they need a runway to ship
out their products.
Mr. Lobb said they would have to start small and prove that a bigger runway is
needed because FAA won't fund it now so that is why it is in our capital plan.
Mr. Lobb answered more board and public questions.
Mr. Muckel said we get asked by the tenants within the community that the tenants
at the airport don't pay property taxes, they don't pay into the TIF, they don't pay
into the CRA. Is there an expiration date for their lease?
Mr. Lobb said they pay sales taxes to the state and each lease is structured different.
One tenant has a lease for 30 years and another for 35 years.
Mr. Courtright said that Mr. Lobb is the first person in years that has addressed the
Immokalee Airport. Mr. Courtright said he has insight on many things
He has a fully approved flight instruction school in Immokalee but I don't have a
place to put the airplanes. I have been unable to bring people in because the few
hangars we have are always full and we have always been full. We need to build
more hangars.
There is a situation at the Immokalee airport that I stepped into that is a bucket of
worms. I found out that the building that we just discussed the two hangars and
administrative services were funded by federal HUD grants and other grant funds.
And it had a specific purpose to be established as an import/export facility federally
funded part of it with HUD and other grants.

The grant document itself addresses the fact that the building is to be used under
DOT as a federal inspection station and cargo facility and it complies in all aspects
to be able to work tomorrow. The airport has been identified in writing that is it has
been approved now as an Import/Export Facility it just needs one thing. It needs for
Collier County to approve somebody or a business to be identified as such. The
county has got to indentify somebody or company to function in that capacity. I
would like for Hummingbird Flight Services to be activated as that company. The
building has been built under grants and has conditions it has to provide full service
of an approved airport for cargo. I personally produced all these documents to the
CRA.
Mr. Muckel said we provided the documents provided by Mr. Courtright to the
board last month.
Mr. Nappo asked what was in the building now. Mr. Courtright said that the
Sherriff's Department is in the building now.
Mr. Courtright said that is the point that it is a total violation of the grant and it is
documented that if they fail to comply with the grant conditions they are subject to
the same thing that happened to the Immokalee CRA and the same thing that
happened to the Immokalee Airport with the RV Park. Mr. Courtright said that the
grant conditions were violated by the airport for allowing the Sheriff's Department
to use it for other things than they were built for and for letting the drag strip use it
too.
Mr. Lobb said quickly that there are two different things to talk about. The Foreign
Trade Zone exists and is totally different from what he is talking about. The Foreign
Trade Zone (FTZ) designation offers companies the convenience of deferring any
duties or taxes until the business ships the goods outside of the FTZ. The FIS
Customs facility was the intent of the building but those aren't the grants conditions
for that. The cost to operate the customs facility is $250,000 a year. If we had a
demand to have customs facilities we would do it. The RV Park was a grant
violation and has been put on the record.
J. CRA New Business
1. LDC Amendment—update
Staff provided board with an update of the Main Street Overlay Subdistrict boundary
reduction. We are working with county staff we are ready to move forward we have
the executive summary and the map and the amendment request language will go
before the (DSAC) Development Services Advisory Committee, the Collier County
Planning Commission, and the Board of County Commission. I will bring final
documents back to you next month.
The total history and timeline of this reduction request had to be provided to county
staff. Staff and board discussed some potential new businesses trying to come into
Immokalee. The business is a used car dealership.

2. CRA Commercial Grant Programs
i. Commercial Façade Grant
ii. Sweat Equity Grant
Staff said they have received a couple of inquiries regarding the Commercial Façade
Grant but we haven't received any formal applications yet. Once we do we will set
up a meeting and score them and move forward with a single application.
Mr. Null wanted to know if the programs were strictly for commercial businesses. If
we can do anything for Non-Profit businesses like the Chamber of Commerce.
Mr. Muckel said the businesses have to pay into the tax base. We do not have a
program in place for Non-Profit based businesses. Staff said that we had the new
owner of the Bullrider's building came in for information they are using it as a
watermelon packing house. The owner of the Winn-Dixie shopping Center has also
inquired about a façade grant.
*** Board moved Agenda Item K.3. up due to time constraints.
3. Advisory Board Vacancies—update
i. Chief Paul Anderson(Enclosure 7)
ii. Bernardo Barnhart(Enclosure 8)
iii. Maria Elena O'Neill (Enclosure 9)
iv. Mariela Romero (Enclosure 10)
Staff provided board with Enclosures 7-10 which are applications for Chief Paul
Anderson, Bernardo Barnhart, Maria O'Neill, and Mariela Romero. After discussion
board would like to appoint all four applicants to the Immokalee Enterprise Zone
Development Agency. The board currently has three vacancies so Mariela Romero's
application will be postponed until January 1, 2016 when the new ordinance gets put
in place.
Action: Mr. Ski Olesky made a motion to appoint Chief Paul Anderson, Bernardo
Barnhart,Maria O'Neill to the Immokalee Enterprise Zone Development Agency which serves
as the Immokalee Local Redevelopment Advisory board. Mariela Romero will be appointed in
January 2016 once the existing Enterprise Zone Development Agency ordinance expires
which dictates a cap on Board participation of 13 members. The motion was seconded by Ms.
Cindy Lozano and the motion was approved by unanimous vote. 7-0.
***Citizens Comments
Carrie Williams would like to speak under Citizens Comments because she has to leave. I
wanted to bring to everyone's attention the MPO Long Range Transportation Plan I think Brad
has a copy and he said he was going to forward to everyone. They are going to do a 21 day
public comment until November 13, 2015. You can go online you can make a public comment
on roads that we want to make a priority. You can read through their needs accessement. What I
understand from their engineer is that on the Needs Assessment table the roads highlighted in
green has been elevated for concerns the ones not highlighted in green they are waiting for
funding from the state. We need to make Little League Road and SR 82 a priority.
Please look at the material when CRA staff sends it to you. Please provide your comments. All
the information is on the www.CollierMPO.com. Brad provided board with details of the LRTP
2040. Brad asked Carrie Williams what she would like to see as a priority. She said we need to
make Little League Road a priority and have it moved over to the cost feasibility plan.

Mr. Daniel Gonzalez wanted to provide comments on the Open Air Market. Mr. Gonzalez said
he spoke with Mr. Joseph Mucha a couple weeks back and he is waiting on some information
from him. He said that he spoke to his vendors regarding the poles situation. The ones that had
concern and questions he told them to come here today.
CRA staff told Mr. Gonzalez that two of his vendors showed up and addressed their concerns.
Mr. Joseph Mucha provided board and Mr. Daniel Gonzalez a recap on the open air market tent
frame situation. Both markets will have to put them up on Friday and take them down on
Monday. He also said that they have addressed the situation with people setting up outside the
market to sell.
Mr. Gonzalez said that he is still having issues with people setting up across of Main Street right
in front of his market. I made my vendors remove the tent frames last weekend and I lost four
vendors because I am enforcing the rules and Mr. Esquivel isn't. The rules need to be enforced
across the board. A lot of my vendors are elderly so they are doing this as an extra income so
they can make ends meet. They have a hard time setting up and breaking down the tent frames.
If the complaints are for them to look better I can work on it to make it look better.
My market is open from Thursday to Sunday so my vendors would set up on Thursday and
breakdown on Monday.
****Board moved back to Regular Agenda Items. J. 3.
3. Draft Immokalee Stormwater Master Plan—update
Staff provided board with an update on the stormwater master plan. Mr. Muckel
said he gave a presentation yesterday to the Big Cypress Basin Board. He said he
gave them an update on where we stand with the stormwater improvements
throughout the community and that we would be updating the existing Immokalee
Stormwater Master plan. I asked for their input. Lisa Koehler the Big Cypress
Basin Director will be weighing in and coming into the conversations now. She is
going to provide tweaks to the plan and so is Jerry Kurtz the Stormwater planner
with Collier County He has ear marked $200,000 in his budget for Immokalee
