October 5,2016
The Committee discussed the rationale for imposing fees and the methodology used for the rates
including:
• The analysis provided for Emergency Medical Services for other Counties rates (Table l 6) is
not a direct comparison to Collier County. Some Counties impose fees at reduced
percentages while others include a range of categories under the"EMS" fee. Consideration
may be given to amending the chart or eliminating it from the report,however the BCC will
potentially request Staff to provide comparisons on the proposed rates and the relationship to
other Counties.
• Concern on the rationale for the proposed fees for fast food establishments with Staff noting
they are seeking a partner in the food industry to assist in reviewing the category.
• Government services include those improvements not accounted for elsewhere such as the
Courthouses, Tax Collector, Administration, Supervisor of Elections buildings, etc.
• Lee County impact fee rates are substantially less however they rely heavily on property
taxes to fund capital improvements.
• There has not been an increase in fees since 2010 andat that time the Board of County
Commissioners reduced the rates imposed.
• In the past the Committee has separated the recommendations into one for the methodology
used to develop the rates,and the other on the rate of fees to be imposed.
Nilgun Kamp,Tindale-Oliver provided an overview on the rationale for the level proposed for fast
food establishments noting the intensity of the operation correlates to the proposed fee.
