COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA
POLICY FOR NANIING COUNTY-OWNED BUILDING, STRUCTURE, OR FACILITY
I. Naming of County-Owned Building, Structure or Facility.
The following is the policy of the County Manager of Collier County, Florida, regarding
naming Collier County-owned buildings, structures, or other County-owned facilities. Each
County-owned building, structure, or facility, or integral part therein, e.g., chapel in a hospital,
hereinafter "facility," shall be named based upon the function(s) the facility performs or the
services provided to the public from the facility. The specific location of the facility can, of
course, be included in the name; for example, an adjacent right-of-way, body of water, or any
other prominent landmark. Examples: Collier County Courthouse, Central Avenue Library,
Sheriffs Annex,Tarpon Lake Park, South Pass, or Pine Ridge Road Library.
II. Naming of County-Owned Building, Structure or Facility to Honor a Natural,
Person.
"Natural person" means actual human being(s). The Board of County Commissioners
("Board") may name a County-owned facility to honor a natural person or persons, living or
deceased. Examples could be "The John Jones County Courthouse," "The Bill Smith County
Library," "The Mary White and Bill White Sheriff's Annex," "The Joe Green Museum," "The
Jim Gallagher Pass"or"The Dan Marino Athletic Field" (provided the Athletic Facility is based
upon a Substantial Financial Contribution).
A. Naming A County-Owned Structure To Honor A Natural Person Based upon
Actions and not based upon Substantial Financial Contribution(s).
1. The natural person(s)must have,by his or her local actions (other than Substantial
Financial Contribution), specifically and directly benefited Collier County, and, preferably, the
specific facility, or at least the geographic area where the facility exists(or is planned to exist).
(a). Fields of Endeavor. If the public achievements of the sponsored, local natural
person(s) are primarily in a specific field of endeavor, that field of endeavor should have a direct
and significant logical relationship to the facility. As examples: A medical facility should be
Packet Page-337-
6/10/2014 11 .A.
named to honor a local physician, a local nurse, or other local practitioner in the field of
medicine. A sports facility should be named in honor a local natural person associated with
athletics. A nautical facility should be named to honor a local natural person associated with
nautical matters. A courthouse should be named to honor a local judge,local lawyer, or a natural
person directly associated with local administration of justice or local law enforcement.
(b). "Specific, Direct, Local Benefit." The natural person whose name the facility is
proposed to honor must have performed significant, direct local benefit to the facility or at least
with regard to the site of the facility(land or water). "Significant, direct, local benefit" does not
include acts by a person who has benefited Florida generally (or has generally benefited the
United States) and has not rendered direct, significant local, beneficial acts to benefit Collier
County,the specific facility, or at least the general geographic area of the facility.
(c). Sponsorship. Each recommendation to have a County-owned structure named to
honor a natural person based upon that person's local, beneficial acts (other than a Substantial
Financial Contribution) may be proposed to the County Manager by any individual, any
corporation, any organization or group, but only by using the attached form.
(d). Application Procedure. Each application to recommend naming a County-
owned facility in honor of a natural person based upon that person's local acts (not based upon a
Substantial Financial Contribution) must be submitted to the County Manager by use of the
attached form. Each such sponsored application, when complete, must contain the names,
addresses and signatures of not less than 1,000 natural persons who reside, at least part-time, in
Collier County and who agree with the recommendations of the Sponsor as stated on the form.
The Sponsor's written reasons must include a brief biographical sketch as regards the proposed
natural person(s) and a listing of the significant local beneficial acts performed by the local
natural person, and upon which acts the Sponsor believes it is appropriate that the Board name
the facility.

B. Naming A County-Owned Structure To Honor A Natural Person Based upon
Substantial Financial Contribution(s).
1. Notwithstanding any other provision of this policy, except the referral provisions
listed below, a County-owned facility can be named in honor of a natural person(s) provided
substantial sums of money or other substantial, valuable assets (such as land related to the
facility or land situate elsewhere), are contributed to Collier County by, or on behalf of, such
natural person(s), living or deceased, to assist Collier County, directly or indirectly, in acquiring
title to the underlying land, to the facility, or to some specific, identifiable part of the facility
(e.g., "The John Jones Wing of the Collier County Hospital"); provided, however, that such
person has not engaged in illegal, immoral, or otherwise improper conduct. No such natural
person need be a local person.
2. If a facility is named and it is thereafter discovered that the natural person
unbeknownst to the County, had engaged in illegal, immoral, or otherwise improper conduct,
that brings discredit upon the County, the County may in its unbridled discretion rename the
facility. If a facility is named after a then living natural person and that person thereafter
engages in illegal, immoral, or otherwise improper conduct, that brings discredit upon the
County, the County in its unbridled discretion, may rename the facility. This discretion to
rename is and shall be subject to any then existing and enforceable provision in a written
agreement to which the County is then a party and wherein the County contracted away this
unbridled discretion to rename the facility.
C. Referrals by the County Manager.
1. If the County Manager determines that the standard form application is complete
and has merit(or that the facility may appropriately be named in honor of a Substantial Financial
Contributor, which does not require use of the standard form or any signatures) the County
Manager shall refer the complete application, or the recommendation to name the facility to
honor a Substantial Financial Contributor, for review comments and suggestions, as follows:
3
Packet Page-339-
6/10/2014 11 .A.
A. To the Constitutional Officer if the facility is or will be occupied by, or is or will
be under the jurisdiction of, that Constitutional Officer; or to the County Division
Administrator(s) if the facility is or will be occupied by, or is or will be under the jurisdiction of,
the Division Administrator(s), to give each such Officer or Administrator ample opportunity to
provide his or her written comments regarding the application or recommendation, including
opinions why the application or recommendation is or is not appropriate.
B. If the facility has historical significance, to each County-Affiliated Historical
Agency or Group.
2. The County Manager may also request input from groups that, or individuals who,
the County Manager believes are closely associated with the respective facility.
3. Following the above-mentioned referrals, the County Manager, with or without
his (or her) recommendation for approval, may place the item on the Board's agenda for a
decision on the merits by the Board.
D. Financial or In-kind Contributions by the County. In all instances, any plaque
or other memorial or notation to be placed on or at the County-owned facility must be approved
by the County, and must be supplied and be paid for in full by others and at no cost to the County
unless the Board decides in the specific case that it is appropriate and is in the public interest for
the County to contribute money and/or in-kind contributions toward any such plaque, memorial
or notation.
III. Duration and Effect of this Policy. This policy was adopted on the 13th day of May,
2003. This policy shall continue until amended or repealed by the County Manager.
