Agenda 07/08/2014 Item #16C 17/8/2014 16.C.1.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to adopt a resolution to set the date, time and place for an advertised
public hearing where the Board of County Commissioners will adopt special assessments to
be collected on the non -ad valorem property tax bill for curbside solid waste collection and
disposal services for Fiscal Year 2015 and approve the notification to customers.
OBJECTIVE: Set the date, time and place for a public hearing to detennine the fees for
curbside trash collection services for Fiscal Year (FY) 2015. The Board of County
Commissioners (Board) is being asked to approve a statutorily required notification of the
hearing that must be mailed, using first class postage, to each property owner.
CONSIDERATIONS: Ordinance 2005 -54, as amended, established a mandatory program for
the collection and disposal of solid waste generated by single and multi family residential units
and commercial entities in the unincorporated areas of Collier County.
Ordinance 2005 -54 provides for the levy and collection of annual special assessments on the
non -ad valorem section of the property tax bill for residential solid waste collection and disposal
services. Collection of the annual fees on the property tax bill, mailed to property owners of
record in November each year, is the most cost effective collection method available to the
Board. Collection percentage is approximately 100 percent each year.
To use the property tax bill as the collection vehicle, Section 197.3632, F.S. requires the Board
to follow the specific process outlined below:
• Adopt an intent resolution which sets the time, date and place of an advertised
public hearing wherein affected property owners can comment on the fees and the
process;
• Provide notification of the advertised public hearing by first class mail to each
affected property owner;
• Conduct the advertised public hearing at the pre - determined time, date and place;
• Adopt the fee or fees to be assessed on the tax bill; and,
• Adopt a special assessment roll that identifies the rates and affected properties.
This roll will be merged with the property tax roll for collection of the assessment
at the time property taxes are collected.
The attached resolutions and first class notifications (todays requested actions) identify a
proposed or recormnended fee for the FY2015 budget year and a proposed not -to- exceed fee for
the next five years.
The cost of the first class notification is approximately $81,228. By using a not -to- exceed rate
over a five year period, the Board can potentially avoid the cost of first class notification in the
second through fifth years. However, if there is a technological, regulatory or unusual event that
would require the Board to establish a fee above the not -to- exceed amount in Fiscal years 2015
through 2019 inclusive, a new first class notification would be required.

7/8/2014 16.C.1.
The unincorporated area of the county is divided into two distinct Municipal Service Benefit
Units (MSBU) for solid waste collection and disposal services. The MSBU's are identified as
Service District I and Service District 11. Each MSBU requires an individual resolution and
notification.
Shown below are the annual fees for trash collection for the past five years, along with the
proposed fee for FY2015.

PROPOSED

Service District II $163.18
$165.28
$165.28
$165.28
$165.28
$170.36
The recommended not -to- exceed amount is $225.00. This will give the Board a certain amount
of flexibility if there is a need to increase landfill tipping fees over the period.
FISCAL IMPACT: The fiscal impact of the recommended action is associated with the
production and mailing of the first class notices and the legal advertising for the public hearing:
Estimated cost of direct mailing $29,628
(Approximately 106,682 notices)
Estimated cost of postage $41,600
(Approximately 106,682 notices)
Legal advertising $10.000
$81,228
Funds are available in the Mandatory Trash Collection Fund (473).
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality, and requires
majority vote for Board approval. —SRT
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no Growth Management impact associated
with this item.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners approve the resolutions
setting the date, time and place for an advertised public hearing to approve a special assessment
(non -ad valorem) to be levied against the properties in Solid Waste MSBU Service District I and
Solid Waste MSBU Service District II for solid waste collection and disposal services; and
approve the first class notice to be sent to all assessable units.
