Minutes of March 16, 1989 meeting approved.
Mr. McQuillin: I would like to add 1 item - request from one of the
Commissioners requesting the renaming of the softball field at
Immokalee Park. It would be item D under New Business.
Mr. Kobza: I would also like to add "For Kids Sake Program"
-I-
Mr. Bridges: Status of ENCP
Map shown: Work has been on underground utilities mostly. Work is
being down on 2 things above ground, the restrooms and Racquet Center.
Work is going on for basketball courts, dugouts for Softball/Little
League field is partially complete- the structure is up. Today staking
for the grading of soccer/softball field is taking place so back
grading can be done and the irrigation people can get in to do their
work. Jogging trail - base is down all around the lake, the final
surface just needs to be put on that. Shuffleboard courts were being
poured yesterday and above ground structure will be started next week.
Mr. McQuillin: Is the sewer treatment facility still there? Is it in
this area?
Mr. Bridges: Yes, for the school . The park itself will have a
temporary septic tank and temporary drainfields until the County sewer
is in place. We are continuing putting in underground conduit for
electrical, light poles, boxes, the lime rock has been completed on
this entry road. There is a good deal of activity and we are working
towards an August completion date. Drainage is in place and rain
should drain off quite quickly.
Mr. McQuillan: Thanks.
CITY/COUNTY ADVISORY BOARD
Mr. Crawford: The Board met last week and recommend a joint meeting
take place May 18th at 8 : 30 AM. Topic items recommended for the one
hour meeting were provide departmental overviews with respect to
services and operations for both City and County Departments, Advisory
Board rules, way each Board operates, discussion of Comprehensive plans
and specifically how they relate to Interlocal Agreements with School
systems and regional park - County's plan of action in regard to a
regional park. Staff is recommending you approve an agenda to meet
both the Comprehensive plan requirements of the City and County in our
first effort to have a joint Board meeting.
Mr. McQuillin: Any comments - it sounds good. We could add anything
to the agenda you wish to talk about.
Mr. Stevens: You will be there, plus -
Mr. Crawford: Director of Community Services for the City, Chris
Holley; as well as Board members. It will take the place of their
normal meeting - a tour of City facilities will be offered - take
advantage of that opportunity. The tour is scheduled after the Board
meeting.
MOTION: Mr. Stevens: Accept the proposed agenda. Seconded by Mr.
Kobza. Approved. 4-0 . Mr. Mueller will be out of town.
ACTION LIST
Willow Run - Current Status - on hold. Will be brought up again during
budget deliberation with Commissioners and see what direction they wish
to take. Still committed by Growth Management Plan to find a regional
park site even though it may not be Willow Run.
-2-
Golden Gate Baseball Field - reviewed and set for Tuesday's BCC Agenda
to accept bids at $420, 000. Recommendation did not come before PARAB,
it was an oversight as timing was of the essence.
Mr. McQuillin: Could we go over the bids? (After Bluebill hearing)
Wilson, Miller, Barton, Soll & Peek, Inc. Contract - being reviewed by
legal staff in County Attorney's office to ensure continuation can be
accomplished within the existing contract.
Middle School Land Swap - approved. It was brought to you before -
same facilities excluding the band room. According to Florida statue
a municipality to engage in land swap has to pass a resolution and have
a publishing in the newspaper once a week for two weeks. The Agreement
had been drafted and was approved by the County and Schools. The
Commission accepted the concept; now need to publish the hearings,
prepare the resolution, and then the deed can be transferred. We have
money for the soccer/football field and the rest of the work will be
done in 1990.
Mr. Crawford: Our original recommendation was to fund out of MSTD in
Immokalee and not the general Fund since the facility would be
beneficial to Immokalee. It will be reviewed as part of the budget
process.
Mr. O'Donnell: We will know in August as to the funding level. To
move ahead the staff put $20, 000 in FY89/90 budget. Wilson, Miller
indicated $604 , 000 to do mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and air
conditioning work associated with locker rooms, a couple of class
rooms, and work that is necessary to bring conditions up to our
standards and code requirements. There will also be some operational
costs; maintenance and operational costs will be above and beyond
$200, 000.
NEW BUSINESS
A. BLUEBILL BOAT RAMP
Mr. O'Donnell and Mr. Crawford were introduced. Mr. McQuillin informed
people that they were welcome to address the Board but please do not be
redundant and to limit remarks. Mr. Crawford had some printed material
available - a summary and general information regarding Bluebill .
Mr. Kobza: I have a direct conflict with Bluebill - I live directly
across the canal from the proposed boat ramp. I had a discussion with
Ken Cuyler regarding his opinion on conflict and to the point I can
participate. Basically he said I could participate after the
disclosure, in discussion and suggestions, but not vote. I will have
this declaration and opinion filed with the minutes.
Mr. James Scarborough, Attorney, with Conley and Baker, representing
Vanderbilt Beach Property Owners Association. Frank Baker will also be
here to speak later. The Vanderbilt Beach Property Owners Association
is a community association which was organized and exists to protect
and preserve the values of the Vanderbilt Beach area. As this Board
may be aware, a petition signed by 400 in opposition of the ramp in
this location has been submitted. The small number of people in
attendance does not represent the large number of people in opposition.
-3-
The site is inappropriate. The Vanderbilt Beach Property Owners
Association is legally charged with the responsibility of enforcing the
Qcovenants and restrictions created for the sub-division when lots were
platted. Land was deeded in 1984 to Collier County. The sub-division
was created in 1959 with the following restrictions among others - no
lot shall be used except for residential single family purposes, not to
exceed 2 1/2 stories, single 3 car garage - no projections such as dock
area and no offensive activities among others. When the land was
deeded to Collier County the developer proposed deeding the property to
the County for building a boat ramp and when the Commissioners approved
it that was what they had in mind and discussed. I am legally correct
when I say it does not affect character of the deed restrictions. When
the property was accepted by the County it states the County is taking
title subject to restrictions on record. Restrictions were intended to
apply. The other side of the canal has now been fully developed with
expensive lots and expensive homes - Mr. Sowers, the developer, will
speak later. There are particular problems with this site. We
recognize the necessity of providing recreation facilities and
appreciate the Advisory Board's work. This aerial photo taken in
February 1985, which is out of date, shows Block V, the County owned
property. It is not seawalled, and the vegetation is all mangroves.
Until Mr. Sowers purchased this block and started developing, this
canal was full of silt and unusable. He went through a lengthy process
and an expensive process. Where he has developed has been sea-walled,
he went through a long process obtaining permits to put the canal into
navigable condition, removed mangroves. He went through an extensive
mitigation program imposed on him by the State. He removed exotic
vegetation and replanted the entire area with mangroves at great
expense. The canal at this narrowest point is 85 feet wide. There are
problems physically, a boat on a trailer is launched by backing the
trailer into the water before the boat comes off. You have to back
substantially into the water, remove the boat straight off and then
maneuver it. The site is physically not feasible, the canal is too
narrow. The bulk of the people have boat docks on the developed lots.
The lots are currently being developed with boat docks and these people
will all have boats. If we have high winds, maneuverability of the
boats in this narrow area is a problem. People will stack up at the
ramps, 2 trailers in the ramp, others will be waiting with no place to
wait. The main canal is very restricted going out to the Gulf. Boats
cannot meet going under the bridge, they have to go single file.
Turkey Bay is environmentally sensitive, a very winding, narrow
channel, and is not appropriate for channel dredging or maintenance. I
bottom out regularly - my boat draws 30 inches of water. From
experience I know where the bumps are. It takes me ten minutes to go
through Turkey Bay, at best one boat can go in each direction.
Strangers in this area would be disastrous. In regard to this summary
provided by Mr. Crawford we take issue with the 2nd paragraph. "There
is existing an unimproved boat ramp on the west end of the property
being used by the public for boat launching since at least 1983" . That
is not true, no one launches boats there. People do fish, but is not
used for launching, maybe only a jon boat or canoe. Paragraph 7
"County's Real Property Department has determined there is no other
available sites in the immediate area" . What type of investigation was
made? This is an allegation I question. "Wiggins State Park supports
the need for the Bluebill launch facility" . This I take issue with,
they have not been asked to support and the boat ramp has never been
operated at capacity. The location is much better, past Turkey Bay,
and it has adequate parking for trailers. Last paragraph "Currently
-4-
there are no County launch facilities in this area. Delnor Wiggins has
launch facilities and was considered in developing the Standard. In
Laddition to normal use for Gulf access, the facility would also serve
the needs of the boating community during severe storms" . Not true.
The ramp has sufficient capacity. To take this property because
capacity is needed is not true. "Serve needs during severe storms"
Vanderbilt Beach has two accesses, Bluebill Avenue and Vanderbilt Beach
Drive. Both are emergency exits, two lane roads, and two lane bridge.
If an evacuation was ordered is it a great idea to bring boat trailers
in here? It is an appropriate location. We support the idea of
additional facilities for boating by the County. Our guidance to the
staff is the site is inappropriate, I suggest selling this property.
Offers have been made in excess of $1, 000, 000. With that kind of money
you could use it to expand another launch facility, purchase other
property, or enter into an agreement with the State park. I appreciate
your time and will turn the podium over to Art Jacob.
Art Jacob, President of Vanderbilt Beach Property Owners Association:
Members of this Association are firmly opposed. From the land side you
would be adding to an already overcrowded situation. An officer from
the Sheriff's Department stated this would attract a crime area into a
residential area. Deed restrictions dating back to 1959 go with the
land. We are concerned about the maintenance and protection of the
property and neighbor's property. Traffic on the two roads which are
already over crowded. This is a small area and it is bordered by good
facilities. From the water side we are concerned with safety factors.
We will fight this with all of our resources and hope you will find an
alternate spot.
Col. Philip Ash, retired military officer, retired chief of police,
Commander of Coast Guard Flotilla at Wiggins Pass. I live in the area
and would like to address two areas in particular, law enforcement and
safety factors. The State park has a double boat ramp and parking area
and full time officers who patrol the park. The largest portion of
their time is helping problem boat trailers and inexperienced
launchers. I have been Chief of Police at Daytona Beach and
Portsmouth, Va. , which both had boat launch ramps and we had to have
full time law enforcement officers. There was a significant increase
in water-borne activity. One third of the burglary committed was done
by boaters. A launch area produces significant problems in the future.
Wiggins Pass ramp does not encourage tourists to come south into
Vanderbilt. The traffic - this is the busiest intersection in Collier
County. Safety - it is a narrow canal which has been addressed, Turkey
Bay is shallow, we have to show boaters where the channel is, but the
residents do not have a problem. Once in the channel to Wiggins Pass,
the Pass is usually too shallow or the seas too rough in the Gulf so
you would head north. This is an unmarked channel and they will get
lost. Tourists are a real problem. Water skiers pick this area and
the water is too shallow. Jet skis are a problem, there are manatees
in the area. If you build a ramp there you will need a full time
deputy at the ramp and a full time deputy in the lagoon at Wiggins Pass
area. Turkey Bay should be dredged, the inside route from Wiggins Pass
north to Bonita Beach Road should be marked and Wiggins Pass be
dredged.
Mr. Bob Butler: I live here year round, work and pay taxes. For 25
years I operated and owned a boat ramp in Ohio in a residential area.
It was a necessity to have police protection - especially on the
-5-
holidays. You would have 40 good couples in the AM, 20 bad couples
returning in the PM. Garbage and rubbish were a problem, you had
undesirable people. People came to watch the launching of cars, dog
'm' training acts, etc. The place is an accident waiting to happen. In a
severe storm if you put 40 boats in at one time you would have absolute
chaos. Thievery goes on - battery stealing if someone's battery does
not work, steal trailers. The noise level - car, trucks, boat engines,
radios - and this will happen all night. Jet skis are noisy, they have
to rev them, jet boats have to rev the engine up. Another thing is it
would open it up to commercial people using this. Boat businesses will
be launching boats from here.
Jim Allen, Architect: I own the lot next to this proposed boat ramp.
From the seawall to the proposed boat ramp is 82 feet wide, I have a 33
foot boat. It takes 66 feet to turn my boat around. If you put a
typical car trailer which is 25 feet long and a 25 foot boat, in there
there will be a problem. People at Boat Haven have said the turning
radius is twice the length of the boat. Therefore, if they miss the
ramp, in order to turn around they are going to hit my boat. When I
come in in my boat I close your ramp.
Mr. Sowers: The Deed restrictions are intact. We did a nice
sub-division. I gave a letter of intent for purchase of this property.
I would do anything to purchase another parcel in the area that would
make more sense. There are other areas available. When I did my
property it was a lengthy process, approximately 2 years, and you would
have the same process to go through the same process. I had no idea
the County wanted to develop this, I would like to see you purchase
N.1410, another parcel, and do a trade.
Frank Baker, practice is litigation: From my point of view I am not
sure how wide the canal was. We all have permission for outside docks.
If we park out here and someone is backing down the canal, there will
be problems. It makes no sense from a liability point of view. The
needs of the community need to be balanced with the right location.
This is clearly not the right location. Living in these homes will
become noisy; on the weekends it is a high traffic area. There will be
a growth in boating, but find the right place for them. Single family
homes have the right to expect quiet and privacy. There should be a
reasonable use of the waterways by the public, but also they have the
right to some safety factors. If there is any question about the
traffic flow on the road, see what it is on weekends. This is my
analogy - with all the dogs in Collier County, the place for a kennel
would not be close to residences - some get up early, some go to bed
late at night, some cannot be controlled. Maybe the property should be
sold and the money allocated specifically for a boat ramp in another
area.
Frank Christie: A Catholic church is going to be built in this area.
Masses are now being held in the Elementary School . You cannot make a
left hand turn on Sunday because the cars are all lined up going to
Delnor Park.
Jim Scarborough: This issue has arisen several times. Considerable
effort and money has been involved going through this process and I
would strongly ask that this be put to bed. I strongly request that
this Board request that you take a position on this today and give
guidance to the staff so they know what to do.
-6-
Mr. O'Donnell: We have always intended as indicated to have a boat ramp
put there. Some points have been brought up - we agree with some and
disagree with some, the bottom line item is whether that particular
area should have a boat ramp or not. Staff is more than willing to sit
down and meet with the Association and if Mr. Sowers comes back to this
Board with another alternative site, perhaps we can work out some kind
of sale or swap of properties. We are not opposed to that whatsoever,
I just want the Board to know that.
Mr. Stevens: Does someone here have the specific measurements of the
waterways - under the bridge, not the canal? I went up there and paced
off that bridge, noticed all the large poles and went down where these
people were using this as a boat ramp. Mrs. Johnson stated that you
cannot see up there and I had no problem. I noticed where the bridge
supports are there is a break in the railing. I went up there and
leaned over, and watched where I was going to pace off. I paced off
where the navigable water from the edge of the rocks over to the first
column - 25 or 30 feet, approximately 60 feet in the middle and another
25-30 feet on the other side. When you say it is not navigable, I do
not know why, there is water in there and it looks pretty deep to me.
I did my homework on this. I also went down to Marco and paced off and
in my opinion with the bridge supports 90 to 100 feet apart the area
way under the bridge appears to be 90 to 100' . That is the Marco
bridge. With what Mrs. Johnson gave us here it infers that you do not
have much room, but you have as much room as there is under the Marco
bridge.
Mr. Ash: I did not understand your question.
Mr. Stevens: I am talking about the navigable way under the bridge.
Mr. Ash: I did not go out and measure it. I run a boat up here, it is
a 29 foot boat. I know from a stand point of good judgment I would not
go through this bridge while there is a boat coming from the other
direction. There may be physically room to do that, I do not know the
clearance, but you have unexpected maneuvering, restricted areas of
current and it is not a safe condition for two way boat traffic
simultaneously. Other small boats traveling at idle speed may be OK
but the main channel is the only navigable way for boats of any size.
Fishing occurs on both sides in that area. The lines rarely come out
between the two major piling areas. The concrete piling structure
serves to reverberate the bow ways and stern ways of boats going
through, this tends to throw the boats closer together and we do have
collisions. Boats 12 , 14 , 16, 18 feet can go through with no trouble,
but with larger boats over 30' you do have the chance of collision, it
is narrow.
Mr. Stevens: I believe it was you that mentioned a channel for
maneuvering. How wide is that channel in Turkey Bay?
Mr. Ash: That is even narrower, typically running at low tide 20' and
at high tide 30' wide. This channel that does the winding is extremely
narrow.
Mr. Stevens: So the people living in the area have the same problem?
Mr. Scarborough: Yes, but they know the area.
-7-
Mr. Stevens: Agreed, but many people have boats and are not skilled
operators to begin with, but you would have the same problem anyway.
It would seem to be a problem for the auxiliary everywhere, and not
just limited in that area.
Mr. Ash: No question about that, particularly in the unmarked area
north of Wiggins Pass, but there are some areas which would have better
access to navigable waters.
Mr. Stevens: I would like to get this information so I may make up my
own mind, and I am not a boater so I have to ask these question. You
are presenting figures and supposedly facts and I need to find out
these things for myself. The fact that you have 400 signatures is not
going to make up my mind.
Mr. Butler: I live in the area and I have a boat. I would like to
invite anyone to come on my boat at medium tide, not high tide or low
tide, and go through channel on the north side, through Turkey Bay and
we will try to get out to the Pass. Any time at your convenience I
would be happy to do that and then you would get firsthand information.
This invitation is open to any or all of you.
Mr. Stevens: All I am saying is that all the people who live in the
area and have boats are not too concerned about that, the real concern
is you do not want other boats there.
Mrs. Delores Johnson: We have to live by the tide charts and we do not
venture out hours before or hours after high tide. You will have boats
coming in here that are not familiar with the tide charts, they will be
going aground and causing more trouble for the Coast Guard.
Mr. Stevens: But that is not unique to that area. I do not know if
everyone who lives there is an experienced boater or not.
Mr. Ash: One thing that is unique to our area - you make reference to
Gordon Pass, Marco Island. These are maintained by the Corps of
Engineers. Ours is a privately maintained channel so there are areas
that people will assume they can follow the markers, and that is a bad
assumption.
Mr. Stevens: There are channel markers up there?
Mr. Ash: They are out there, but do not follow them, they are no longer
true. Collier County does maintain those markers, those markers are in
a very limited area, Turkey Bay; once you get north of that and in the
Wiggins Pass Channel there are again some markers, but once you get
beyond that there is nothing north of that for roughly three miles to
Bonita Beach Road.
Mr. Stevens: Does the Auxiliary cooperate with the County and suggest
that markers be placed?
Mr. Ash: The Auxiliary makes recommendations and they are only that.
Mr. Stevens: Another thing is that we do not have here an engineer
that could give clarification as to what would be needed or how it
would be affected or maybe a change of location. We do not have an
engineer around that could tell us.
-8-
Mr. Crawford: Bayview canal is 40 foot wide where the launch is but it
is not residential . Caxambas has residential . According to Bob
Richmond, the County engineer, the canal is approximately 100 feet wide
here as compared to the 40 foot width at Bayview.
Mr. Butler: You need what is called a staging area - when waiting for
someone to back up and launch where are they going to wait? They
cannot even see the ramp or who is backing the trailer down if they are
in the bay area. You will have five or six boats trying to maintain
position while waiting.
Mrs. Johnson: Another thing Bayview has only 18 slips not 40. Also
the mangroves do not come out so far.
Mr. Crawford: I am trying to answer some of the questions. I cannot
remember all of them and I apologize. The County would have to comply
with the rules just as the developer did and would have to remove
unnecessary vegetation. We obviously have different information and
draw different conclusions. We certainly are not objecting to working
with anybody. I am happy to share with you the County Attorney's
opinion with regard to deed restrictions and development of public
facilities on the land. I have a written opinion that I would like to
share with you. (See attached letter "A") .
Mr. Scarborough: I am quite certain that the cases cited in there are
cases that I have here. I have covered that with Mr. Jacob on behalf
of the Association, and I can tell you that I do not agree that it is a
foregone conclusion. I think that I can tell you that if the County
does intend to proceed with the ramp at this location we will go to
court. We may win or we may lose, but you are not going to do it
without We have limited dollars to work with, and the job of the
Advisory Board as I understand it is to try and get some input and
advise where resources should be applied.
If the County insists on going ahead with this plan you are going to
face opposition that we would prefer not to have. Cost of litigation,
a quarter of a million dollars spent by Mr. Sowers, and you would have
more because it is not bulkheaded. You have a piece of property that
could be sold and we can provide an alternative location for the
facility that would be much more suitable to the public interest.
Mr. O'Donnell: Mr. Chairman, my suggestion would be that Staff be
requested to work with the home owners and developers looking at sites
in the immediate area.
Mr. Crawford: I do not agree with some of the information prepared,
and take issue with some of that information. We have to base our
information on what we have received, and that was there was no other
land available in the immediate area. We have also had direct contact
with Mr. Ed Higgins, Park Manager, that he supported that launch
facility because of the needs and of the problems of overflow
associated with that facility. We have differences in opinions and can
draw different conclusions from that information. For your general
information the Boat Launch Standard was adopted by the Board about a
year ago and through an analysis it was determined that there was going
to be 29 , 000 boats in Collier County and the vast majority of those
will be trailered. We are planning on constructing through 1994 an
additional 12 lanes, both fresh water and salt water facilities. Of
-9-
course if there is a piece of property suitable we would like to
proceed with that. Without trying to get into all the issues I would
recommend to the Board before any decision is made to meet with Mr.
Sowers and somebody else to look at sites that we may not be aware of
for launch facilities in the North Collier County area.
Q
Mr. McQuillan:an: You wish to do that before we make recommendation to
the BCC?
Mr. Crawford: If there are additional sites available.
Mr. McQuillan: You made reference to alternative sites twice in your
presentation, Mr. Scarborough. Did you have some definite sites in
mind?
Mr. Scarborough: There are some alternative sites that I am aware of,
I have not gone out specifically to see what is wrong with this
particular site or that particular site. Yes, I am aware of other
sites in North Collier County. That is really where it belongs, unless
long term maintenance is done on the channel, safety markers installed,
etc. I would love to see long term channel maintenance in Wigging
Pass. Yes, there are other sites served by Wiggins Pass that do not
have residential areas, would not have the same traffic problems, but
would have the same shallow water problems.
Mr. Crawford: I would like to point out that I think there is some
wrong information about the way the County operates its existing launch
facilities. We have Point Caxambas, SR951, and Bayview. The one at
Caxambas is in a residential area and has been operated for many years.
It basically operates from 7 thru 5 daily, is gated and secured at
night and we have had very limited problems regarding vandalism and
other concerns raised here.
Mr. Mueller: I appreciate your concern and the possibility of looking
into an alternate site is valid and should not be discounted. But
there has been some misinformation passed around. First, if the
Collier County deputy made the comment that it would turn into a high
crime area that is ludicrous. I am familiar with the ramp at 951 and
live not too far from the Caxambas ramp on Marco Island. There has not
been any appreciable increase in crime there. It is a a very well run
facility, open 7 to 5. The people who live in the condos right close
to this ramp have not had any problems to my knowledge, and I would
hear about it if they had. Mr. Butler has experienced these problems
in Ohio and I have not heard of any of these things happening at the
two ramps here.
Mr. Butler: I would say you do not read your newspaper. During the
crab fishing season, on 951, crab traps are stolen every day from one
fisherman to the other.
(This was determined it might have happened a few years ago. )
Mr. Phil Brady: I live on Connors Avenue year round and had a 22 '
Catalina which I no longer keep there because I have to go through
Wiggins Pass. I keep it down in Doctor's Pass where I can get in and
out. I cannot believe you people are planning on putting in a ramp
before something is down about the channel . It is putting the cart
before the horse.
-10-
Mr. Baker: We could go back and forth forever, we have gone over our
time limit and I suggest that we set this over
for a month. The County has offered an olive branch to sit down and
talk with us. Let us do that and come back to this Board.
Mr. McQuillan: Thank you for your suggestion. Cliff, did you have
something to say?
Mr. Crawford: As you all know that property is zoned RSM6 and that
would allow approximately 25 residential units on that property. I am
sure Mr. Sowers is aware of that. It seems that we have 2 problems
here - opposition to the public launch facility trying to be tied into
other problems associated with access and with the problems associated
with the safety and use of that all the way out through Wiggins.
Really that is not directly something that the Parks Board could deal
with, but from the logical prospective it would seem that if this
gentlemen is putting in a 32 ' boat across the street and you are going
to have all those residential lots with boats - say this turned into a
residential area now. We have all the other davits now on the other
side of Bluebill, we have a significant problem to have access and use
of all the other channels as you would if there were smaller boats
there. Most of the boats launched at the County facilities are 18 '
boats, you don't trailer a 32 ' boat.
remark: All those boats do not go out at one time.
Mr. Crawford: True, any more than ---
Remark: You don't have 40, 50 or 60 people coming in at one time and
putting in one boat after another.
Mr. Crawford: I understand, but as you are all aware, it is also
being used for commercial use now. Somewhere south of the facility
someone runs a commercial business running a tour boat. When I was up
there Tuesday I saw a tour boat going up and down, so that is already
being used for commercial purposes.
Mr. Kobza: This will probably be my one opportunity to ask questions -
Mr. Crawford you mentioned the zoning - that was probably in place
before the single family homes were erected on the other side. Do we
have within the County Zoning Ordinance a classification for Parks and
Recreation. If so, do we have to go through a land type of procedure -
have a zoning change for that property? It seems to me that many
issues raised here are land use type of questions. Have we given this
to County Planning staff? If so, have they provided us with any
recommendations or written memos. Has there been a study done recently?
Any type of zoning procedure necessary?
Mr. Crawford: There is RO zoning - recreation and open space zoning.
Some of our parks are constructed on RO zoning and some are constructed
on all kinds of zoning. It is being proposed to the County pursuant to
the Comprehensive Plan that all public facilities be developed as
public use zoning district which is going to be looked at within the
next couple of months to get us in compliance with Growth Management
and other associated situations. In terms of Park & Recreation
facilities, and other Departments, facilities would not go through a
zoning review, public or otherwise.
-11-
Mr. Kobza: Are we exempt from our own zoning laws?
Mr. Crawford: Basically, if a developer bought the land, under RMS6
zoning he could put in 25 lots and a launch facility as an accessory
facility, if he did not petition for a rezone. I am not sure you are
aware of that. .
Mr. Kobza: Could the County planners take a look at this and give us a
recommendation as to the mixed usage and liabilities?
Mr. Crawford: It is a public park facility.
Mr. Kobza: It is a mixed use between a single family residential and
the park. Can we have the planners take a look at this and come back
with a recommendation? Seems to me like many of these people have been
highlighting land uses as opposed to utility of a launch ramp; to that
extent we are not a land use board.
Mr. Crawford: With respect to the acquisition and development of the
new community parks the land use issues and review by Planning
Department did not and would not take place.
Mr. Kobza: Would all of the mangroves be removed from the north side
of the channel under the park plan?
Mr. Crawford: I could not tell you that. Whatever would have to be
removed would be during the mitigation, as Mr. Sowers experienced.
Mr. Kobza: A study would have to be done even if we make a
recommendation for approval?
Mr. Crawford: Yes, as with any other type of facility. For instance
ENCP where it had State jurisdictional matters, particularly regarding
wetlands and mangrove areas there; if we proceed we are responsible to
meet whatever the requirements are. At the beach access up at Lely
Barefoot we have to relocate turtles, as well as mangroves.
Mr. Kobza: Has there been a formal capacity utilization study done at
the State park in written form?
Mr. Crawford: I do not think that is available, even from the State
park. The new rate structure and their changes, of which you are
aware, has had an impact on the utilization of Wiggins State Park.
Currently you pay a $2 . 00 launching fee and an individual fee for the
driver, plus a passenger charge, so to launch a boat you are paying
approximately $3 . 50 .
Mr. Kobza: Basically you are saying we are going to provide a free
facility. Do we know what the per centage is?
Mr. Crawford: No. At Caxambas we currently have approximately 15, 000
boats here in Collier County, through 1994 projected 29, 000. Typically
that facility has 5, 000 launches. It is the only facility that we have
a counter to actually track the number of users. Whether it is a State
park or travel area on weekends we see trailers and vehicles parking in
vacant areas and along the roadside. That is a problem, and it will be
compounded in that vicinity whether a boat launch facility is completed
-12-
or not. If the area is developed residentially the area will be
impacted by traffic generated by this development as well as where is
the traffic for Wiggins going.
Mr. Kobza: Let me ask you some operational questions. Would the use
of this park be exclusive to the boat ramp, or would you allow people
to come along the north side of the canal and allow people to fish?
Would this be a limited use park exclusive for boating? Would this
allow people to be fishing in someone's back yard along the canal?
There are also a lot of joggers.
Mr. Crawford: The property line right now as far as the County owns
only goes to the south side of the canal. If necessary that could be
closed off. Right now fisherman are pulling in and fishing along that
area. Our typical model shows what we build - it is just not a parking
area. It is a neighborhood park, small play area, green space, and
restroom facilities.
Mr. Kobza: Policing of the park - demographics of this area are very
unique. How would you police this area, when would it open or close?
Easter weekend there were cars lined up all the way to 41 waiting to
get into the State park 7 : 30 in the morning. Do you anticipate when
people might pull off the road and have their party there instead of
going to the park. How would you address that kind of a situation
there?
Mr. Crawford: There are several approaches. We work closely with Don
Hunter now. Tigertail Beach during spring break is a classic example -
we have Park Ranger staff. We work closely regarding traffic control
and other associated issues with the Sheriff's Department and our own
staff.
Mr. Kobza: I know you do a tremendous job, but what I am saying is, if
you read the Sheriff's log, I personally registered the last three
Saturday nights 3 complaints regarding the 4 wheeling. They have
difficulty controlling that. You cannot sleep, you are putting more
use into that, and doesn't this require a separate plan of policing?
Mr. Crawford: Our experience at the current launch facilities show
that to be minimal . I would suggest that the situation would be
improved in some fashion if that facility were build. It would help
out with illegal dumping and some of the other things going on there
right now. If there are other problems occurring with the capacity and
traffic at the State park that is an issue that you have to somehow
address with the Sheriff's Department.
Mr. Kobza: Would there be a buffer between the parking lot and the
canal? Are they bushes or trees?
Mr. Smith, Parks Manager: We have not received any details on the
landscaping yet. The mangroves would probably remain.
Mr. Kobza: How far east would the park go?
Mr. Crawford: 4 . 9 acres - goes close to Vanderbilt Drive.
Mr. Butler: On Gulfshore Boulevard and Bluebill, the SE corner is
undeveloped. How many cars are parked there on a week end? Where do
-13-
the people go? I am suggesting that you are building a fancy free
parking lot for people going to use Delnor State Park and making use of
the Vanderbilt Inn and the access to the beach. It is your intention
to put a park there but you are going to be providing a very expensive
parking lot especially when that gentlemen develops that SE corner. I
would say between 75 and 100 cars park there.
Mr. Jacob: You are going to have a war between boaters and bathers.
Mr. Crawford: It could be controlled. It would be staffed and could
have a launch charge or entrance fee.
Mr. O'Donnell: My recommendation is to work together with the
Association, find available sites that we are not aware of and explore
that with them.
Mr. McQuillin: Kim raised three points.
Mr. Mueller: I would like to hear about alternative sites.
Mr. McQuillin: I will entertain a motion to postpone this until next
month and give your group an opportunity to work with the County,
telling them where these alternative sites are, and staff can address
operational questions.
Mr. Stevens: I would like to speak to some sort of an engineer to
clarify for me what space is needed to turn boats around. I want to
hear the other side.
Mr. Jacob: I would like to see the Board take this gentlemen's offer.
I think you are missing something here. If you get 6 boats 16 feet,
you have them milling right around there, while there is average
traffic going through there, there will be sloppy boaters, and the only
way you see that is to see for yourself.
Mrs. Johnson: There are 50 cars on the lot as overflow now, two condos
are going to be developed there, so where are these 50 cars going to
go?
Mr. Mueller: MOTION: Vanderbilt Beach Property Association is going
to meet with Cliff Crawford and they are going to come up with some
alternative sites, and Parks and Recreation is going to clarify some of
the questions that Kim raised about operational status and the
landscaping around the area.
Mr. Stevens: Seconded. Passed 3-0 Mr. Kobza abstained from voting.
B. PARAB VACATION SCHEDULE
Discussion was held regarding the BCC vacation dates of June 18 through
July 15. The Staff presently will be devoting the majority of their
time working on the budget.
D. RENAMING OF IMMOKALEE SOFTBALL FIELD
Mr. McQuillin: I received a letter from Commissioner Anne Goodnight
requesting the renaming of Immokalee Softball Field to "Holmes Field"
in honor of the late Barbara Holmes who served as teacher and coach.
-14-
She wishes to place a plaque on one of the dug outs so naming the
field.
rr" Mr. Stevens: Motion to make a recommendation to the BCC that a plaque
be placed on a dug out naming it ',Holmes Softball Field". Seconded by
Mr. Mueller. Approved 4-0 .
Mr. Crawford: I would like to amend that and ask Staff to prepare the
appropriate Executive Summary for proper presentation to the BCC.
APPROVED.
Vacation schedule - suggest if you wish to take a break leave emergency
numbers so you can be contacted if needed. If you wish we can do what
the BCC does, County Manager has authority to sign and then makes a
report, we could do the same thing. MOTION SKIP JUNE MEETING.
Seconded. Approved 4-0.
C. ROLE OF PARAB:
Mr. O'Donnell: The County Manager has asked me to prepare a report so
that we can develop into an ordinance for what the duties and
obligations of the PARAB are to be. In the past we have had some
questions. I will have that for you at the July meeting. Generally
there are a lot of routine things to do - trophy bid for example -
which is a waste of your time. Bluebill is an example of what should
go to PARAB. It should be involved with true policy type issues, not
routine operational procedures.
Mr. Mueller: At least this Bluebill issue is going to give us time to
think about it. I would like to follow that in the future, allowing
enough time so we are not rushed like with the beach ordinance. We
need time to study.
Mr. O'Donnell: We have problems with the way the BCC amended it. We
have not issued any beach vendor permits. The County Attorney's office
is working on it.
Immokalee Vacancy: No applicants.
E. KIDS DAY:
Mr. Kobza: I was very impressed, it was an excellent presentation and
would like to offer the follow resolution for consideration: Resolved
that PARAB and the community recognize and express their appreciation
for the tremendous amount of effort to the County Parks and Recreation
Director, Cliff Crawford, and the staff and all volunteers who
participated in the Kids Day program. It was a tremendous success. I
would like to quote that in Resolution form and as soon as we pass that
Resolution I would like to have it included in the informational
package to the County Board.
What was there 3 , 00 kids?
Mr. Crawford: 4 , 000 kids - we are still complying figures.
♦. Mr. Kobza: In that demographic area it really meets the needs of that
community. I would like to make that motion if possible. APPROVED.
SECONDED. 4-0.
-15-
Mr. McQuillin: When you said Board did you mean our Advisory Board.
Mr. Kobza: We adopt that as a Resolution and be communicated to the
County Board and communicated to the volunteers and the staff. It is
important that the staff understands that we as the community sees
those things and appreciate it.
Not possible to add staff and volunteers names. .all volunteer names not
available.
GOLDEN GATE LIGHTED BALLFIELD
Mr. Smith: As you are aware we had to rebid - bids were opened on
March 29, received 5 bids, 1 was no bid. Again the low bidder was
Mid-Continent. We budgeted $346, 000, bid was approximately 70, 000 over
budget. We went back to Wilson, Miller, reduced the height of the
poles, reduced dugouts from cement block to chain link, changed the
location of the electrical line for the feeder service, and we made
some significant changes which brought the bid in close to budget.
We did leave in the parking lot. The engineers and staff realized that
if we built another baseball field we would need the additional parking
lot. The parking lot was put in as an alternate. We have to recommend
the parking lot as parking is not sufficient now.
Mr. Mueller: The height of the poles was reduced from 90 to 70 feet?
1
Mr. Smith: There were substantial changes in the electrical
service. . . a main line was redirected.
C
Mr. Mueller: How will that affect the usage of that diamond?
Will it keep some types of baseball from being played there?
Mr. Crawford: The candle power remained unchanged.
Mr. Mueller: It is about the same at Winterberry.
Mr. Smith: We were going to reduce the number of poles but could not
get enough light on the field so that increased the price.
Mr. Stevens: You need light - it would be cost effective compared to
liability.
Mr. O'Donnell: Look at first page of the Executive Summary - where you
see Fund 306 Capital Improve. $346, 500 that was the original budget we
had set aside. The balance of $100, 000 reserve was balance of reserve
- $62 , 000 being used for shuffleboard courts. Fund 306 had more money
than we had projects authorized for FY89 . We anticipated transferring
money to 301 and what we are doing is not transferring as much money as
anticipated.
Mr. McQuillin: What drinking fountains were eliminated? There will
still be water available for the players?
Mr. Crawford: Yes, we can add some fountains later ourselves at less
* cost than quoted now.
Mr. O'Donnell: We have a lot of contractors in this town that are
really busy and we are working on their prices right now. It is just a
-16-
reflection of the times. We are getting into some expensive
construction prices down the road.
Mr. Kobza: I would like under the next agenda if we might be able to
address tennis courts in NNCP. There is some fairly strong support for
the extra courts called for in the Master Plan. I would like to
explore using some of the $100, 000 for this park to possibly build
tennis courts.
Mr. Mueller: We would like to have additional lights at the Racquet
Club.
Mr. Crawford: We have had interest from various tennis groups, CCWTA
also have expressed interest in needing additional court facilities.
Meeting adjourned 11: 30.

MEMORANDUM OF CONFLICT
TO: COLLIER COUNTY PARKS & RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD
RE: CONFLICT ON ISSUES INVOLVING A PROPOSED BLUEBILL PARK SITE
DATED: May 2, 1989
I am filing this Memorandum of Conflict pursuant to
F.S.A. 112.3143( 2) (b) for the purpose of describing and
disclosing that conflict which I have regarding the proposed
Bluebill Park property.
As stated in the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board meeting
of Thursday, April 20, 1989, my wife, Stacy, and myself own
Lot 39, Block U in the Conner' s Subdivision. This property is
our residence and is located directly across the canal from the
proposed Bluebill Park property site. Therefore, decisions made
on the proposed Bluebill Park and boat launching facility may
affect our property values giving us a potential economic
interest in the outcome of the decision made with regard to the
proposed Park.
For this reason and pursuant to direction received from
County Attorney Kenneth Cuyler by letter dated March 31, 1989, a
copy of which is attached hereto, I will decline from voting on
any matters regarding location of the proposed Bluebill Park and
will only participate in discussion regarding the Park to the
extent allowed pursuant to County Attorney Kenneth Cuyler' s
opinion.
It is my intent to avoid even the appearance of any conflict
regarding this matter. I have asked that a copy of this
Memorandum be filed and kept with a copy of all minutes of all
meetings pertaining to the proposed Bluebill Park property.

Dear Kim:
This letter is in response to your correspondence requesting
information on voting conflicts to assist you in avoiding any
such conflicts while you act in your capacity as a Collier
County Parks & Recreation Advisory Board member. As I
mentioned in our telephone conversation, I am forwarding a
copy of Section 112 .3143 , Florida Statutes (1987) which-..
addresses voting conflicts in general and, more parti-
cularly, the participation of appointed public officers in
conflict matters . You will note that Section 112 .3143 (b)
provides that:
No appointed public officer shall participate
in any matter which inures to his special
private gain or the special gain of any principal
by whom he is retained, without first disclosing
the nature of his interest in the matter. . . . .
For purposes of this paragraph, the term
"participate" means any attempt to influence
the decision by oral or written communication
whether made by the officer or at his direction.
Therefore, the straightforward language of the statute allows
you to participate after you have first disclosed the nature
of your conflict. As long as your participation is that of
normal discussion, questions and suggestions , it is
authorized by the statute. The only time an appointed or
elected public officer would have a problem with participa-
tion is if such participation rose to the level of "arm-
twisting" which is unusual and should obviously be avoided.
Kim Patrick Kobza, Esq.
Lieberfarb, Treiser, Kobza & Leigh
March 31 , 1989

You should also note that, in addition to disclosing the
nature of the conflict orally at the meeting, it is necessary -
to file a written memorandum with the person responsiblelfor
recording the minutes of the meeting. - - -
As legal advisor to the Board of County Commissioners, I have
found this area of governmental law to be uniquely difficult.
A slight difference in facts can significantly impact a
decision on conflict matters. As we discussed in our
telephone conversation, voting conflicts must usually be
.determined on a case by case basis, so if you know in advance
that a situation may arise which will cause you concern you
are welcome to give me a call to discuss the matter.
I hope this information will be of assistance to you in
evaluating and handling conflict matters.
Sincerely,

RE: Enforcement Of Deed Restrictions Against Governmental
Entities
• As a result of our discussions with you concerning the deed
restrictions which cover Vanderbilt Beach Estates Unit No. 3 and
our review of various research, this office has reviewed the
above-referenced matter in relation to the following issue:
QUESTION PRESENTED:
ARE DEED RESTRICTIONS WHICH PURPORT TO LIMIT THE
USE OF LANDS WITHIN VANDERBILT BEACH ESTATES UNIT
NO. 3 TO RESIDENTIAL PURPOSES ENFORCEABLE AGAINST
THE COUNTY WHEN THE COUNTY HAS ACQUIRED THE LANDS
BY GIFT FOR USE AS A PARK OR RECREATIONAL FACILITY?
BRIEF ANSWER:
DEED RESTRICTIONS ON LANDS ACTIVELY SOUGHT AND
ACQUIRED BY THE COUNTY FOR PUBLIC PURPOSES , SUCH AS
A PARK OR RECREATIONAL FACILITY, ARE NOT ENFORCE-
ABLE AGAINST THE COUNTY.
ANALYSIS AND AUTHORITY:
In Florida it is well settled that deed restrictions are not
enforceable against governmental units when the lands are
acquired for public use. The issue was addressed by the Florida
Supreme Court in Board of Public Instruction v. Town of Bay
Harbor Islands, 81 So.2d 637 (Fla. 1955) . The action was brought
by the town to enjoin the Board from erecting or operating a
school within the corporate limits of the town. The Board had
entered into a contract for the purchase of land within the town
limits. The Circuit Court of Dade County had entered a decree
ordering the Board to perform its contract of purchase, and at
the same time enjoined the Board from locating, erecting or
operating a school within the town limits. The Florida Supreme
Court affirmed that portion of the decree requiring the Board to
consummate its contract of purchase, but reversed that part
imposing an injunction.
PARAB
BLUEBILL GENERAL INFORMATION
The Bluebill Avenue land was donated in 1984 by the Conners
family to Collier County for development of a boat ramp
facility. (Attached)
There is existing a unimproved boat ramp on the west end of
the property being used by the public for boat launching
since at least 1983.
The BCC adopted the Boat Landing Study in August, 1988, which
establishes the Level of Service Standards and Planning
District locations for launch facilities.
The Growth Management of Collier County also addresses the
need for launch facilities. The Department and Parks and
Recreation Advisory Board have established a policy of
constructing public recreation facilities on existing County
owned property.
It is anticipated through 1994 there will be 29, 562
registered boats in Collier County. There are over 15, 000
currently registered.
The existing County salt water launch facilities are at
capacity during peak use, the weekends. There is the
possibility of elimination of the 951 facility if the road is
widened.
The County's Real Property Department has determined there is
no other available sites in the immediate area.
Wiggins State Park supports the need for the Bluebill launch
facility.
Attached is the proposed design for the facility with planned
40 spaces for the boat parking.
The design is similar to the popular Bayview launch facility.
The Department is recommending to move forward on the launch
facility following the design included.
Currently there are no County launch facilities in this area.
Delnor Wiggins has launch facilities and was considered in
developing the Standard. In addition to normal use for Gulf
access, the facility would also serve the needs of the
boating community during severe storms.

offering to dedicate the 4.58± acres to Collier County for such a use. They
ask only that Collier County provide an appraisal, and that the transaction
be completed by December 31, 1983.

completion of the donation, staff will present the deed to the Board for
acceptance.

INTRODUCTION
The Parks and Recreation Department is a leisure services
delivery system responsible for the recreation and park needs
of the residents and visitors of Collier County.
To accomplish this mission the Department employs full
time, temporary and contractual professionals to implement a
comprehensive public program and maintenance support system.
The Department is challenged with the impact of new growth,
along with facility and program deficiencies that previously
had not been adequately funded.
The Department strives to provide quality service and support
in addressing the recreation and program interests of the
community.

DEPARTMENT OVERVIEW
The Parks and Recreation Department was established by the
Board of County Commissioners in 1972 . A Joint Use Agreement
between the Collier County School Board and the County
Commissioners was approved in 1974 enabling the Parks and .
Recreation Department to build facilities on school sites and
the use of school facilities for programming. The Agreement
also enables the schools to utilize the Parks facilities.
The Parks Department primarily built facilities on elementary
school sites. These facilities were generally a lighted
softball field and two tennis courts.
The Department has an Advisory Board that meets once a month.
This Board consists of five members; one from each com-
missioner's district. The term is for two years.
In 1976 the Parks and Recreation Department unsuccessfully
attempted to pass a bond referendum to construct community
parks. In 1932 an 8 million dollar bond referendum to build
five community parks was approved. Presently four of the
five community parks are open to the public. These parks are
located in Golden Gate, Marco Island, North Naples and
t Immokalee. The East Naples Community Park is under
construction in two phases; one for land clearing (which is
complete) and the second is for game courts, buildings, etc.
The second phase is currently out for bid and will be open on
December 2nd. Master plans for all five parks were designed;
however, due to funds available to build facilities, only
Phase I of the parks were constructed. This is approximately
30-40% of the facilities.
The Department is basically structured into four sections;
Administration, Recreation, Parks and Beach and Water.
Administration - Consists of the Director and office support
staff.
Recreation - This section is in charge of all the programs
and s:,ecial events for Collier County at community parks and
school facilities. Some of the programs offered are
athletics, recreational classes, special events such as
Sncwfest, Magical Easter, For Kids Sake and camps. The
Recreation section also operates the Collier County Racquet
Club on Marco Island.
Parks Maintenance - This section performs ground maintenance
at all County neighborhood parks, community parks, libraries
and other governmental facilities such as the Government
Center, Marco Island and Immokalee Sheriff's substations,
and the Health Department in Immokalee. Some of these
facilities are maintained by an independent contractor. The
Maintenance Section also maintains beach accesses and boat_: -
quorum for the conduct of business.
B. Officers:
The Advisory Board, in its first meeting each year,
will select a Chairman and Vice-Chairman by majority
vote, to serve a term of one (1) year.
C. Frequency of Meetings:
The Advisory Board shall meet monthly, or more
frequently at its desire, or upon call of the Board
of County Commissioners. Monthly meetings shall be
considered "regular meetings; meetings of another •
frequency will be termed "special" meetings, and may
be called either by the Chairman or a majority of the
Advisory Board on three (3) days' notice to the other
members by first class mail, or waiver of notice if
such meeting has majority approval, or verbally when
duly documented in the minutes of the Advisory Board.
D. Minutes of Meetings:
Minutes will be taken of the meetings conducted by
the Committee by a member designated by the
Committee. Copies of such minutes will be filed with
the Clerk of the Board of County Commissioners, with
copies provided the County Manager.
E. Meeting Facilities:
The County shall provide meeting facilities for the
Advisory Board through the County Manager.
5. STAFF ASSISTANCE:
The County Manager shall provide technical information
and staff assistance on a need basis, as his resources
will allow.
The Parks and Recreation Director will be the liaison
between the County Manager and the Advisory Board.
6. REPORTS:
Reports shall be prepared on call of the Board of County
Commissioners.
7 . These guidelines shall become effective upon adoption and
approval by the Collier County Board of County
Commissioners on the 25th day of November, 1975.
