OBJECTIVE: To receive approval of the proposed Site Improvement Grant and Impact Fee Assistance Grant Programs recommended by the CRA Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Local Redevelopment Advisory Board. Both grant programs apply only to properties within the Bayshore/Gateway Redevelopment Overlay Area as identified on the ounty s Future Land Use Map C ' (FLUM). CONSIDERATIONS: Tasked with the responsibility of creating a workable incentives program, the CRA Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Advisory Board has identified two matching grant programs Ior the CRA to consider. Consistent with the adopted Redevelopment Plan, the intent of those two grant programs is to revitalize the area by providing incentives that will encourage the private sector to invest in the area. Both grant programs require funding to be allocated from tho tax increment funds for the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area - Fund 187. The proposed programs are a Site Improvement Grant and Impact Fee Assistance Grant for the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area. Each applicant must meet certain eligibility criteria and points will be awarded based on evahJation criteria. All residential properties within the Bayshore/Galeway Triangle Redevelopment Overlay are eligible for Site Improvement Grants. However. only commercial projects located within the Bayshore Drive Mixed Use Zoning Overlay are eligible for Site Improvement Grant funds (see Figure 1). Impact Fee Assistance Granl funds are eligible for residential and commercial properties (owners only) throughout the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Overlay. The grants require at least a 50% match from the applicant and will be funded by tax increment funds from 2000. Funds collected from 2001 will not be allocated until next year. Initially. this one-year lag in fund availability provides flexibility to lhe CRA to modify the program as needed and reserve capital should the CRA pursue bonding. There will be a grant deadline and all projects will be considered at the same time for the Site Improvement Grant program. Impact Fee Assistance Grant applications will be considered in groups according to scheduled periodic (e.g. quarterly) review and award periods until all allocated funds are depleted. Site Improvement Grant applications will be reviewed by the Bayshore/Gateway Advisory Board and applicable c. ounty departments that would normally review s~]ch a project. Im0act Fee Assistance ~'r~n, applications will be reviewer, by the Bayshore/Gateway Advisory Board and the County ',],pact Fee Coordinator ;-irld a~y other applicable d¢~.parbner~ts. Tl~ese review bodies will ther, k)rward their recommendation for assistance to tile CRA for final approval. It is recomnTe/~ded thnt the fflTat r~.crnnmo, nch.~ti,:~n h)r ,~pprovat by the CRA he done ar; ~ot,sent a.qet?da items. FISCAL IMPACT: CRA redevelopment efforts are partially funded thro~kqh Tax h~crerr~ent Financing (-l-IF). Hence, the incremental difference in tax revenues between the original frozen asse.'.'~sment value (1999), and the new higher assessed value in the Redevelopment Area is used to finance redevelopment efforts in the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area. The CRA Advisory Board recommends 30% of the first year of accrued lax increment r~venue be set aside to fund these two grant prog ams More specifically, it is recomme~?d that 20 Y,, of lhe annual tax increment funds be allocaled ~f~--¢~ Sitar Improvement Grants, and 10Yo allocated to Impact Fee Assislance Grants· Ii is ~urthel recommended that the Advisory Board revisit the prograrns each year for adjustment as needed. Because the Advisory Board has also been considering bonding the CRA TIF to reeei~ more funding up front to implement the Redevelopment Plan, the Advisory Board recommends tha;l only the first year of tax increment funds (2000-2001) be committed to implementing these programs. The total TIF funds ~rom 2000-2001 are $t21,000: 30% ('$36,300) is available ¢or these two grant programs in the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area (Fund 187). $24,000 will be allocated for Site Improvement Grants and $12,000 for Impact Fee Assistance Grants for 2002, using 2000-2001 TIF funds. The Site Improvement Grant may provide up Io 50% of the cost of improvements, up to a maximum grant amount of $4,000 (six grants). The Impact Fee Assislance Grant may provide up to 50% of the total impact fees for a project, up Io a maximum grant amount of $61000 (two grants). The more malch provided, the more points awarded. ~D REDEVELOPMENT PLAN: The above-mentioned incentive programs generally support the objectives of the redevelopment plan. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Policy 4.7 of the Future [.and Use Element of the Growth Management Plan states that redevelopment plans may be developed for specific areas within the County, including the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle, that may consider alternative land use plans, modifications to development standards, and incentives to encourage redevelopment.

OBJECTIVE: To approve the creation of a position and the appointment of an Executive Director to conduct the business of the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area, the preparation and implementation of redevelopment planning projects and initiatives of the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle CRA District, and authorize the County Attorney and Staff to draft any necessary agreements, ordinances, resolution language, or budget amendments. This position would serve at the discretion of the CRA and would not be an employee of the County Manager. CONSIDERATIONS: On May 7, 2003 the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Local Redevelopment Advisory Board recommended that the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) approve the creation of an Executive Director position to manage the business of the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area. At the June 13, 2003 CRA Board Meeting the agenda item that set forth the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Executive Director position was given verbal support by the CRA Board. The CRA Board authorized staff and the advisory board to bring the item back in September/November with all the details of the position delineated with specificity. The CRA Board made it clear that this was a policy matter of CRA, and that the idea of the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area funding their own Executive Director was acceptable based on the presentation provided by the Advisory Board. On November 4, 2003, the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Local Redevelopment Advisory Board meet in regular session. The Board unanimously approved the concept of creating the position of Executive Director. The position will report directly to the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), much like the County Attorney who reports to the BCC. The immediate oversight and supervision of the Executive Director would be the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Local Redevelopment Advisory Board. The Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Executive Director will have a salary range of $65,000-$100,000, Pay Plan Grade 30, equivalent to that of a Planning Services Department Director. This individual will direct the daily operations of the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area. Some of the responsibilities of the position would include the following; · The development of an annual business plan, budget, and report. · The creation of redevelopment plans. · The coordination of amendments to the Land Development Code necessary to implement such plans. · The writing and administration of grants, executive summaries, and budget amendments. · The scheduling and organization of all meetings pertaining to the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area. Attached is the employee description/job listing to be posted as drafted by the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Local Redevelopment Advisory Board. FISCAL IMPACT: _]_ The direction of the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area Advisory Board is to appropriate approximately $160,000 of accrued tax increment revenue from the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Trust Fund (Fund 187) for funding of this position and all associated costs. Currently the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle CRA expends $85,000 per year towards an Urban Design Planner and Planning Technician within the Comprehensive Planning Department of the Community Development and Environmental Services Division. When the Executive Director position is filled, the funding support to the Comprehensive Planning Department by the CRA will be terminated. Community Development and Environmental Services (CDES) staff has reviewed the creation of this position and have determined the following fiscal impacts; · The termination of their funding of $85,000 a year towards Urban Design Planner, and Planning Technician within the Comprehensive Planning Department would lead to the elimination of one full time employee within the Comprehensive Planning Department due to the loss of CRA funding from Fund 187 for the position. · The total cost associated with this position would be: (FORTH COMING FROM DENNY BAKER) GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: None ADVISORY BOARD RECOMMENDATION: To approve the creation of a position and the appointment of an Executive Director to conduct the business of the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area, the preparation and implementation of redevelopment planning projects and initiatives of the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle CRA District, and authorize the County Attorney and Staff to draft any necessary agreements, ordinances, resolution language, or budget amendments. COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF RECOMMENDATION; Staff is unable to support the creation of this Executive Director position due to the following concerns and considerations: 1. As outlined in the attachment of total cost estimates, this position and the associated operating and support staff expenses would represent a duplication of current CDES Division staffing and appropriations; (FORTH COMING FROM DENNY BAKER) 2. A decision by the CRA to employ an independent Executive Director would only be advisable in the context of the entire CRA, including the Immokalee District and any future districts which might be added to the Collier County CRA; 3. A disconnect will be established between the CDES Division responsibilities for statutory growth management planning within the area of the Bayshore/Gateway CRA District managed by an independent director, and the Immokalee District, managed and staffed by the County Manger Agency. Coordination of joint planning efforts will be hobbled by separate control spans and accountability channels back to the CRA Board; 4. The County Manger will have no authority to implement policy of the either CRA Board or the BCC within the Bayshore/Gateway CRA District other than through the Executive Director or with his/her acquiescence. There is a potential conflict with the County Manager Ordinance; 5. The CRA Board may need to develop, advertise, issue Truth In Millage Notices (TRIM), and hold public hearings for the Bayshore/Gateway annual budget separate from the Annual County Budget if it is and independent district, which would be the next logical step after the creation of this position; 6. If the CRA Board is inclined to create an Executive Director, who would not be an employee of the County Manager, staff recommends that the CRA Board advance a recommendation to the BCC to reconstitute the CRA ordinance for appointment of a CRA Board not consisting of the BCC. The Collier County CRA would operate as an independent agency with it's own Board, budget and employees, similar to the Airport Authority, but with dedicated ad valorem funding (TIF), not dependent on annual appropriations by the BCC, and eminent domain powers.

Pettit, Chief Assistant County Attorney Scott R. Teach, Assistant County Attorney October 23, 2003 RLS CPR031000801 Bayshore/Gateway Triangle - Hiring of Executive Director I CEIVED OCl'2 q 2003 If the Community Redevelopment Agency Board ("CRAB") grants the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Advisory ("BGTA") Board authority to hire an executive director to manage its CRA District, you wish to know to whom the executive director must report. Regardless of whether the executive director's immediate contact might be the CRAB or the BGTA Board, as a County employee, the executive director must ultimately answer to the County Manager and the Collier County Board of Commissioners. Notwithstanding this determination, the executive director would be able to report back to both those boards on issues requiring their attention. In arriving at this conclusion, a review of the authority given to advisory boards and the powers and duties of the County Manager is necessary. The Code of Laws and Ordinances of Collier County, Florida at Section 2-834 governs the review of boards. In part, that section outlines a "chain of command" that requires the board to report every four (4) years to the County Manager who in turn must review the board's report, make his own comments and recommendations thereon, and submit the report and his observations to the Collier County Commissioners. Based on the Commission's review of that report, it is empowered to "abolish, continue, consolidate or modify the board.. [.]" Id. At 2-834(5). Therefore, despite the fact that the executive director may work directly for either of the boards, his or her ultimate professional obligation is to County management. Finally, a full-time executive director would clearly fall into the category of employees that are subject to the Collier County Personnel Policies. See The Code of Laws and Ordinances of Collier County, Florida at Section 102-29. However, it not only seems reasonable but necessary that the executive director in his capacity as a County employee would need to regularly communicate with and report back to both boards. As a result, it is our opinion that the individual hired for this position would be able to report back to both the CRAB and the BGTA Board. Community Redevelopment Agency Executive Director Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Agency This position is a high visibility opportunity for a creative community development specialist to lead in the development, approval, and implementation of a comprehensive community redevelopment plan in an area abutting Naples Bay and directly adjacent to the City of Naples, Flodda. Competitive salary and beneffis will be offered based on experience. Minimum qualifications include a bachelor's degree in planning, public administration, or related field from an accredited college or equivalent work experience. Prior experience as an administrator for a Community Redevelopment Administration or as a senior public sector manager in planing, zoning, building, or a related field is preferred. The position requires proficiency in oral and wdtten communications, project organization and management, budgeting procedures, and an understanding of contracting procedures and management. The ability to maintain effective working relationships with the general public, co-workers, and elected officials will be crucial to success in this position.

OBJECTIVE: To get direction on the makeup of the Collier County CRA Board, and authorize the County Attorney and Staff to Draft any necessary agreements, ordinances, or resolution ~anguage that pertains to the direction given. CONSIDERATIONS: On June 13, 2003 the Community Redevelopment requested that further investigation be undertaken regarding the organizational options for CRA Boards. At this meeting the CRA Board members recognized the conflict of interest inherent in their dual roles as members of the CRA Board and as members of the Board of County Commissioners. The following information on organizational options for CRA Boards has been gathered: The enabling legislation for the Community Redevelopment Agency was first passed in 1969 and is known as the Community Redevelopment Act of 1969. In the intervening years the Act (Section 163) has been modified by a number of legislative modifications and by court findings. The fundamental purpose of the Act is to focus management and financial resources on the remediation of the conditions of blight within the affected area. The Act recognizes conditions of blight to be of critical interest to the state and delegates extensive powers (including TIF funding, planning responsibility, enforcement, eminent domain, direct development, coordination of private development, and the encouragement, creation, and/or management of public/private undertakings) to the CRA Board within the blighted area. The clear intention of the Statute is to provide attention to the blighted area from within the blighted area. The original CRA enabling legislation called for an independent CRA board whose members work in or reside in the blighted area Section 163.355(3)(b). In 1977 the City of Hollywood became concerned that an independent CRA was pursuing programs not entirely consistent with those of the City Council and requested special legislation permitting the City Council to sit as the CRA Board. Section 163.357 permitting the governing body to sit as the CRA Board was passed in response to this request. Currently there exists a number of CRA Boards organized under both Section 163.356 and Section 163.357. In the mid-1980s Lee County created three independent CRA Boards. One of the Boards sued claiming that it should be the superior Board and should have control of the entire process, particularly TIF funds. We do not have a copy of the decision, but it apparently turned on the use of the singular in Section 163.356(1). In his commentary the judge declared that there already existed too much bureaucracy in Lee County and that one Board would be sufficient. The Lee County Commissioners conformed to the decision by appointing one of the non-complaining Boards as the CRA Board and establishing the others as advisory committees. Recently Palm Beach County decided that it would like to establish more than one CRA Board in its area. In 2002, Palm Beach succeeded in having special legislation passed amending Section 163.356(1) to permit more than one CRA in charter counties with populations less tha or equal to 1.6 million. By pursuing a legislative remedy to the court imposed limit in the number of CRA's in a county, the Palm Beach County action effectively forestalls court challenges to multiple CRA's in any other situation. The legal reading is that by permitting an activity legislatively, the legislature implies that the activity is otherwise not permitted. The County Attorney and Staff, along with the Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Advisory Board, have gathered all information on the topic of CRA Board Structure and are now waiting direction from the CRA Board. FISCAL IMPACT: There are no fiscal impacts associated with this item. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: None. ADVISORY BOARD RECOMMENDATION: Consistent with its recognition of an inherent conflict of interest at the July 2003 CRA Board meeting, the Collier County CRA Board should pursue a remedy through special legislation amending Section 163.356 such that any county would be permitted to establish of multiple CRA's within its boundaries, and authorize the County Attorney and Staff to Draft any necessary agreements, ordinances, or resolution language that pertains to the direction given.

OBJECTIVE: To approve a budget amendment of $49,000 for the expenditure of monies from Fund 186-1mmokalee Redevelopment for reimbursment to the Immoaklee CDC for monies spent on an Economic Incentive Study for the Immokalee Area prepared by Robert Chades Lesser & Co., LLC. CONSIDERATIONS: On March 19, 2003 the Community Redevelopment Agency approved the allocation of $49,000 from the Immokalee Redevelopment Trust Fund (Fund 186) projects within the Immokalee Redevelopment Area. The project was the allocation of $49,000 from the Immokalee Redevelopment Trust Fund (Fund 186) for the funding of an Economic Incentive Study by the Immokalee CDC for the Immokalee Area. This budget amendment of $49,000 will be used to reimbuse the lmmoaklee CDC for monies spent on the Economic Incentive Study for the Immokalee Area prepared by Robert Chades Lesser & Co., LLC. The reimbursement of these funds to the Immokalee CDC was to have transpired in last year's budget cycle, however funds did not rollover into this years budget thus making this amendment necessary. FISCAL IMPACT: CRA redevelopment efforts are partially funded through Tax Increment Financing (TIF). Hence, the incremental difference in tax revenues between the original frozen assessment value (1999), and the new higher assessed value in the Redevelopment Area is used to finance redevelopment efforts in redevelopment area. The $49,000 of accrued tax increment revenue will be used for an Economic Incentive Study for the Immokalee Area prepared by Robert Charles Lesser & Co., LLC. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Policy 4.7 of the Future Land Use Element of the Growth Management Plan states that redevelopment plans may be developed for specific areas within the County, including Immokalee, that may consider alternative land use plans, modifications to development standards, and incentives to encourage redevelopment. ADVISORY BOARD RECOMMENDATION: To approve a budget amendment of $49,000 for the expenditure of monies from Fund 186-1mmokalee Redevelopment for reimbursment to the Immoaklee CDC for monies spent on an Economic Incentive Study for the Immokalee Area prepared by Robert Chades Lesser & Co., LLC.

CONSIDERATIONS: On, September 9, 2003, at their regular meeting, staff presented an Economic Development Incentive package to the Board of County Commissioners. Included in the package were three items that proposed the use of a portion of the TIF funds from the Immokalee CRA as the dedicated funding source for the programs. The proposed programs that would utilize TIF are as follows: 1) Immokalee Residential Impact Fee Deferral Program: · Qualifying development must be a single family residential dwelling unit within the geographic boundaries of the Immokalee Enterprise Zone; The annual household income for a qualifying development may not exceed $100,000; · The maximum purchase price of the qualifying development may not exceed $175,000; and · The dwelling must be owner-occupied and must be the homestead of the owner. 2) Property Tax Stimulus Program: · Qualifying project must be located within the Immokalee Enterprise Zone; · Qualifying project must creates a minimum of 5 new jobs; · The newly created jobs must pay an average wage equal to or greater than 50% of the County's current private-sector average wage; and CRA - TiT Programs Page 2 Qualifying project is not eligible for the Fee Payment Assistance Program. 3) Fee Payment Assistance Program: Qualifying project must be located within the Immokalee Enterprise Zone; Qualifying project must create a minimum of 5 new jobs; · The newly created jobs must pay an average wage equal to or greater than 50% of the County's current private-sector average wage; and · Qualifying project is not eligible for the Property Tax Stimulus Program. On November 10, 2003, the Immokalee Community Redevelopment Area Advisory Board recommended amendment of the CRA's Redevelopment Plan to authorize the use of a portion of the TIF funds associated to the new development, above the five-percent (5%) retained by Collier County for administrative purposes, for the programs described above, with the following distribution: 1) Immokalee Residential Impact Fee Deferral Program - 95% of the TIF funds generated by the qualifying residential development 2) Property Tax Stimulus Program - 95% of the TIF funds generated by the qualifying development 3) Fee Payment Assistance Program - 50% of the TIF funds generated by the qualifying commercial development FISCAL IMPACT: Utilization of the TIF funds as an allocated and budgeted funding mechanism for the above-mentioned programs will provide the Immokalee area with needed economic incentives to stimulate growth and promote housing that is more affordable. The dollar amount associated to the percentage of the TIF funds allocated to each program (outlined above) will have a direct relationship to the number of qualifying new developments in each program. The programs will require partial support from General Fund revenues to provide resources for the additional costs not covered by TIF funds. The fiscal impacts for each program are as follows: Immokalee Residential Impact Fee Deferral Program: 1) A deferral program with re-payment of impact fees beginning upon collection of the first property tax levied on the improved property (qualifying development). 2) Unless extended by the Board of County Commissioners, the program sunsets after three years. 3) The estimated deferral period is approximately 11 years, per qualifying development, from the date of the collection of the property tax levied reflecting the improvement (qualifying development). CRA - TIF Programs Page 3 4) After the deferral period is completed, a lien remains on the subject property until the home is sold, transferred, or re-financed, at which time the homeowner is required to repay the dollar amount of the impact fees to the CRA Trust Fund and General Fund respectively. Property Tax Stimulus Program: 1) Income and job creation criteria will be met by the applicant and applicable property taxes will be paid in full, with 95% of the tax revenue (TIF) being deposited into the CRA Trust Fund. 2) Upon qualification for the program being determined the property taxes (up to 100%) may be reimbursed to the applicant from the CRA Trust Fund. 3) Requests for repayment may be submitted annually for up to 15 years, provided that the company continues to meet eligibility criteria. 4) Collier County retains an additional 5% of the TIF generated by the qualifying development, above the 5% retained for administrative purposes, to offset the reimbursements from the General Fund. Fee Payment Assistance Program: 1) Income and job creation criteria must be met by the applicant and applicable property taxes will have to have been previously paid in full. 2) Impact Fees will be paid through General Fund and TIF fund revenues, and the applicant will enter into a repayment agreement with the County. 3) Budgeted General Fund revenue and 50% of the TIF funds generated by the qualifying commercial development will be used to fund the program. 4) The qualifying company must remain a viable business and retain their stated employees for 15 years, or the company will default on the agreement and will be required to repay any impact fees not yet recouped. Additionally, these programs will not affect: a) the 5% of the TIF that is retained by Collier County for administrative purposes, b) the current balance of the Immokalee TIF funds, including funds budgeted and appropriated to projects, and c) TIF funds generated by properties outside of the scope of the programs. CONSISTENCY WITH ADOPTED REDEVELOPMENT PLAN: The above-mentioned programs and respective funding mechanisms will generally support the objectives of the redevelopment plan. However, the CRA redevelopment plan must be amended to allow workforce housing in addition to the affordable housing objectives currently outlined in the redevelopment plan. In addition, the boundaries of the redevelopment area must be redefined in order to be consistent with the boundaries of the Immokalee Enterprise Zone. CRA- TIF Programs ~1~6 B Page 4 GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Policy 4.7 of the Future Land Use Element of the Growth Management Plan states that redevelopment plans may be developed for specific areas within the County that may consider alternative land use plans, modifications to development standards and incentives to encourage redevelopment. Additionally, the above-mentioned programs are intended to stimulate growth and development within the areas defined by the Immokalee Enterprise Zone. RECOMMENDATION: That the Community Redevelopment Agency adopts the attached Resolution recommending that the Board of County Commissioners amend the redevelopment plan applicable to the CRA to authorize the use of the specified tax increment financing funds for the Immokalee Residential Impact Fee Deferral Program, Fee Payment Assistance Program, or Property Tax Stimulus Program, as a partial funding source for the programs.
