OBJECTIVE: To formalize the annexation of the Fiddlers Creek Municipal Rescue and Fire District
into the Greater Naples Fire Rescue District by repealing the Ordinance that created the MST U.
CONSIDERATIONS: Collier County adopted Ordinance No. 2015-18 creating the MSTU to provide
and maintain fire department services within the Fiddlers Creek boundaries. On June 10, 2015, the
Governor signed House Bill 859 into law (Chapter 2015-188, Laws of Florida), which provided for the
annexation of the MSTU service area into the Greater Naples Fire Rescue District (the “District”) upon an
affirmative vote by the majority of the resident electors within the MSTU.
On March 15, 2016, the resident electors of the MSTU approved a referendum allowing for the
annexation of its service area into the Greater Naples Fire District. The official certification of the
election results made the transfer of the fire service area into the District final as a matt er of law. The
repeal of Ordinance No. 2015-18, will formally remove this law from the Code of Laws and Ordinances
of Collier County, Florida.
At its February 14, 2017 regular meeting, the Board of County Commissioners authorized staff to
advertise the proposed Ordinance. Upon Board approval, following the County’s completion of audited
financial statements, staff will remit any remaining financial reserves, fund balance, or carry forward
amounts in the MSTU to the GNFD and terminate the existing interlocal agreement between the parties.
FISCAL IMPACT: The cost to advertise the proposed Ordinance was $154.96.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There are no Growth Management Impacts associated with
this action.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality, and requires majority
vote for Board approval.-SRT
RECOMMENDATION: To approve the following:
1. Adopt the attached Ordinance repealing Ordinance No. 2015-18 in its entirety.
2. Authorize staff to remit any remaining MSTU funds to GNFD upon completion of audited
financial statements.
3. Terminate, as satisfied, the interlocal agreement between the County and GNFD.
