Agenda 09/08/2015 Item #16A379/8/2015 16.A.37. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to delegate to the County Manager or his designee the authority to execute Excavation, Early Work Authorization, and Site Development Plan Performance Agreements on behalf of the Board of County Commissioners. OBJECTIVE: To have the Board of County Commissioners (Board) authorize the County Manager or his designee to execute and sign Excavation, Early Work and Site Development Performance Agreements on behalf of the Board. CONSIDERATIONS: Section 22 -115 of the Code of Laws and Ordinances of Collier County, and Sections 10.01.02 B.2 and 10.02.03 D.5 of the Collier County Land Development Code (LDC), respectively, require a Developer to post a performance security to guarantee work associated with Excavation Permits, Early Work Authorization Permits, and Site Development Plans. In addition, the Developer and County must enter into a Performance Agreement, which provides the terms and conditions under which the County may call upon the performance security. These Agreements allow and obligate the developer to perform certain improvements and tasks prior to final approval of development orders such as a Plat or Site Development Plan. The performance security cannot be released unless an agenda item is brought before the Board for authorization to release the security. On July 9, 2015, the Board adopted Ordinance 2015 -44, which includes standard templates for Excavation, Early Work Authorization and Site Development Plan Performance Agreements. The form agreements require approval and execution by the Chairman of the Board. However, Excavation, Early Work Authorizations and Site Development Plan Bonds are ministerial and have historically been approved administratively. If staff is required to present these Agreements to the Board for approval every time an Excavation, Early Work Authorization, or Site Development Plan bond is required, it will delay commencement of the site work and require additional staff time in preparing agenda items for each Agreement. Authorizing the County Manager or his designee to execute the standard agreements on behalf of the Board will save four to six weeks in the issuance of these permits. This is valuable time for the applicant and it will allow them to complete preliminary site improvements by the time that they are approved to commence improvements associated with the applicable development order such as a Plat or Site Development Plan. This will also allow staff to dedeicate time and resources to other petitions, and increase overall efficiency of the petition review process. This action does not bind the Board to expend funds nor does it authorize staff to release performance securities without further Board approval. This recommendation continues to improve our processes without compromising the obligation for surety. Packet Page -904- 9/8/2015 16.A.37.
