To: The Parks and Recreation Board
From: Toni Armstrong

Marco Island, FL 34145
Re: Designating an area of Beach and Park to walk dog
On August 28, 1996, I presented the above proposal. At that time I was
assured that the Board and Steve Brinkman would investigate other areas
and counties for their handling of the subject and the information would
be shared at the next board meeting at which time a decision would be
made.
On September 12, 1996, I called the Parks and Recreation Department
and spoke with Jacque Hart. I requested the minutes---or at least a copy
of the tape from my portion of the meeting---in order to recall exactly
what was said and by whom. I have received nothing.
On September 30, 1996, after I returned from my son's wedding, I again
called Jacque Hart and requested the minutes from the August and
September meetings. I never got them. I also asked to skip the October
meeting and be put on the agenda for the November meeting in order to
share the information gathered from the survey along with that gathered
by the department.
On November 26, 1996, I called the Parks and Recreation Department to
find that:
a. neither "dogs" nor I were on the agenda
b. the new director, Skip Camp, did not want me at the meeting but
that I could "fax" my request to his office
c. no one at Parks and Recreation had looked any further into this
matter--and that the minutes of the August 28th meeting had been
revised to read that it had been designated as my responsibility to
contact other Florida counties and cities to get their regulations.
110
It is apparent that I am being "stonewalled" by the Parks and Recreation
Department and Advisory Board. I began this effort on January 3, 1996
through what I thought were the proper channels. Obviously, I was
wrong. To date, I have collected more than 300 Collier County voters'
signatures in support of the attached survey. When I have a significant
number I will go to the County Commissioners, the press, and the public.
Sincerely,
Toni Armstrong

DATE: October 22, 1996
TO: Board of Collier County Commissioners
W. Neil Dorrill, County Manager
FROM: Thomas W. 011iff, Public Services AdministratorLD
SUBJECT: Beach Parking Program Report
Following the budget discussions and several recent newspaper
articles, a review of the first year of the reimplemented beach
parking free program was determined to be in order. The program
instituted in FY 95-96 was the first ever beach parking program
that charged only non-residents. The program was continued under
the same parameters for FY 96-97 .
In the first year of a program such as this one, estimating the
anticipated revenue is by far the most difficult aspect. As
always the preferred method for an unknown revenue source is to
estimate conservatively. The original staff figure developed was
significantly less than the finally adopted $938, 000 figure.
However, based upon significant input by local interested
residents who were providing estimates that ranged from $750, 000
to as much as $3 , 000, 000 the staff's estimate was raised.
Other difficulties encountered included an authorization of the
program at the final budget public hearing which did not allow
time to hire staff and order equipment in time to begin the
program in October. The program was not fully functioning until
January of this year, and an exceptionally cold winter was also
believed to have had a negative impact.
All that said, the program did generate $450, 000 in revenues for
the past fiscal year. On the expense side of the ledger there are
three major categories whose expenses are as follows:
FY 1995-96 Cost
1. Beach Maintenance Costs (Costs which exist
with or without a beach parking program) $ 63, 000
2. Beach Parking Program costs (those costs
associated with collecting the fee) $ 75, 000
3 . Capital Costs (generally) considered
first year costs that will not recur) $ 75, 000
Total Costs for FY 95-96 $150, 000

Given the above, the program realized a net profit in this first
year of $310, 000.
For FY 1996-97 the revenue projection is $450, 000, with an expense
estimate of $75, 000. The expenses will be significantly lower in
year two and all subsequent years as the initial capital
investment has been made. The result will be an expected net
profit in the coming year of $375, 000. Again this provides for
the beach maintenance program, and allows for County residents to
use the beaches at no cost.
Should you need any additional information regarding this issue
please do not hesitate to let us know. We will, through the
quarterly revenue reports provided through the Office of
Management and Budget keep you apprised of this program as the
year progresses.
