Agenda 02/28/2017 Item #16E 102/28/2017
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to renew the North Collier Fire Control and Rescue District’s Certificate of
Public Convenience and Necessity for Advanced Life Support non-transport services for one
year and authorize the Chairman to execute the Permit and Certificate. (This is a companion to
Agenda Item 16.E.2).
OBJECTIVE: To renew the Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (COPCN) issued to
North Collier Fire Control and Rescue District for Class 3 Advanced Life Support (“ALS”) non-
transport services in Collier County for a period of one year.
CONSIDERATIONS: North Collier Fire Control and Rescue District is currently operating under
a COPCN for ALS non-transport services. Section 10 of Collier County Ordinance No. 04-12, as
amended, allows renewal certificates to be approved routinely by the Board upon advice of the
County Manager or designee, or the Board may hold hearing on same. The Director of the Bureau of
Emergency Services is the County Manager’s designee.
In addition, Section 10 provides that renewals be based on the same standards as the granting of the
original COPCN along with such other factors as may be relevant. The minimum requirements for
an application to be deemed complete are set forth in Collier County Ordinance No. 04-12, as
amended, Section 5. The application is back-up to this item.
In accordance with Section 10 of Ordinance No. 04-12, as amended, the Director of the Bureau of
Emergency Services recommends approval based on his finding that there is a public necessity for
North Collier Fire Control and Rescue District to provide the service and that all other
requirements under Ordinance No. 04-12 have been met.
If this item is approved by the Board, the renewal COPCN and Permit will commence on April 1, 2017
and expire March 31, 2018.
If the COPCN item is not approved then the amendments to the interlocal agreements do not need to be
considered. The interlocal agreements would then expire under their original terms.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact to the Board for the granting of this certificate. The
Board is requested to accept and recognize as revenue in EMS Fund (490) the $250.00
application fee with the corresponding application.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no Growth Management Impact.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: Whether the Board grants the renewal is at the discretion of
the Board, as this is a legislative, and not quasi -judicial matter. The Ordinance allows the
renewal COPCN to be approved routinely by the Board without a hearing. If a hearing is held
the standards set forth in Ordinance No. 04-12, Section 7 apply. Section 7 states:
“The Board of County Commissioners shall not grant a certificate unless it shall find, after public
hearing and based on competent evidence that each of the following standards has been satisfied:
A. That there is a public necessity for the service. In making such determination, the Board of
County Commissioners shall consider, as a minimum, the following factors:

1. The extent to which the proposed service is needed to improve the overall emergency
medical services (EMS) capabilities of the County.
2. The effect of the proposed service on existing services with respect to quality of
service and cost of service.
3. The effect of the proposed service on the overall cost of EMS service in the
County.
4. The effect of the proposed service on existing hospitals and other health care
facilities.
5. The effect of the proposed service on personnel of existing services and the
availability of sufficient qualified personnel in the local area to adequately staff all
existing services.
(2) That the applicant has sufficient knowledge and experience to properly operate the
proposed service.
(3) That, if applicable, there is an adequate revenue base for the proposed service.
(4) That the proposed service will have sufficient personnel and equipment to adequately
cover the proposed service area.”
Ordinance No. 04-12, Section 8 provides:
“In making the determinations provided for in Section 7 above, the Board may, in its sole
discretion, appoint a Hearing Officer to hold a public hearing and to make factual findings and
conclusions as a result of the hearing. Should a Hearing Officer be appointed, said Hearing
Officer shall render a written report to the Board within 30 days of the hearing, which report shall
contain the officer's findings and conclusions of fact, and a recommended order. The findings
and conclusions of fact shall be binding upon the Board, but the recommended order shall be
advisory only.”
This item is approved as to form and legality and requires a majority vote for approval. - JAB
RECOMMENDATION: To accept the Director of the Bureau of Emergency Services’ findings and
approve, and authorize the Chairman to execute, a Permit and renewal COPCN to North Collier
Fire Control and Rescue District for ALS Non-Transport.
