RESOLUTION 87-84 PETITION V-87-1, HOLE, MONTES & ASSOCIATES, INC.
REPRESENTING GULF COASTAL BEACHFRONT VENTURE1 REQUESTING A 29 FOOT
VARIANCE FROM THE REQUIRED FRONT YARD SETBACK FOR VILLAS RAPHAEL _
ADOPTED WITH 9TIPULATION
Legal notice having been published in the Naples Daily News on
March 29, 1987 as evidenced by Affidavit of Publication filed with the
Clerk, public hearing was opened to consider a 29 foot variance from
the required front yard setback of 30 feet to approximately 1 foot.
Planner Weeks st~te~ that this proposed variance is to allow for
the construction of a pump enclosure. He stated that Villas Raphael
is located along Seagate Drive, is gulf front property, contains 11
dwelling units, and the western half of the site is not developed
because of the coastal construction line.
Mr. Weeks stated that the petitioner proposes to construct a pump
enclosure behind a 10 foot high sign which is integrated with the wall
that runs parallel to the front property line. He said the enclosure
will protect and buffer pumps that draw, pump and return well water
through a loop system that runs through all 11 dwelling units as part
of the air conditioning system. He added that the location of the
pumps is right at the property line.
Mr. Weeks stated that technically Staff has no objection to this
petition because the enclosure is small, has a practical location, and
it will not be visible to members of the general public. He noted,
however, that Staff also finds no land-related hardship and, for that

reason, must recommend denial.
APRIL 14, 1987
Mr. Bob Carsello, Kraft Construction Company, Inc., presented pic-
tures of Villa Raphael to the Board and stated that the developer
decided to use an air conditioning system which was the least objec-
tionable to the residents. He said this particular system alleviates
the need for individual compressors on site. He also stated that the
wells for the pumps on this system were originally drilled at the
furthest point from the gulf. He noted that the pumps and the enclo-
sure cannot be seen by the general public and is only visible to the
residents of Villas Raphael.
In answer to Commissione~ Pistor, Commissioner Glass stated that
he has received a letter of no objection from the property directly to
the south.
Commissioner Saunders stated that because of the coastal construc-
tion line setback, he believe a land-related hardship does exist.
Commissioner Goodnight moveð, secondeð by Commispioner Glass anð
carried unanimously, that the public hearinq be closeð.
Commissioner Glass moved, seconded by Commissioner Goodnight and
carried 4/1 (Commissioner Pistor opposeð), that Petition V-87-1, HOle,
Montes & Associates, Inc., representinq Gulf Coastal Beachfront
Venture, requesting a 29 foot variance from the requireð front yarð
setback of 30 feet to approximately 1 foot to allow a pump enclosure
for property known as Villas Raphael, be aðopteð with the following

RESOLUTION 87-85, PETITION PU-86-30C, WILLIAM F. AND PEARL D. WHITE;
REQUESTING PROVISIONAL USE "i" OF THE C-4 ZONING DISTRICT FOR A MOTEL
ADDITION - ADOPTED WITH STIPULATION
Planner Weeks stated the purpose of this petition is to develop a
site, adjacent to an existing motel, with additional motel units. He
displayed the location of the site on Zoning Map 50-26-9. He stated
the lands to the north are undeveloped, to the east is the existing
White's Motel, to the south is a commercial plaza, and to the west,
across Tamiami Court, are single-family dwelling units of one story in
height.
Mr. Weeks stated the p~orosed expansion of the existing White's
Motel will consist of a new two-story, 10 unit CBS building, expanded
parking facilities including 15 automobile spaces and 3 tractor
trailer spaces with access onto Tamiami Court. He stated Staff has no
objections to the petition, but have a couple of concerns with regard
to noise and lights from tractor trailers, and are recommending add i-
tional buffering.
Mr. Weeks reported that the CCPC rp.viewed this petition on April
2, 1987 and had no objection. He said CCPC added the following stipu-
lations: 1) reduce tractor trailer parking spaces from 3 to 2, and 2)
move the gate from the driveway on Tamiami Court to the connector bet-
ween the auto parking facility and the tractor trailer parking
facility. He stated Staff recommends approval based on the CCPC
approval.

In answer to Chairman Hasse, Mr. Weeks stated there is a possibi-
lity of headlight glare for the single-family residences across Tamiami
Court, however, the closest residence is 200 to 300 feet from the
structure itself. In answer to Commissioner Saunders, Mr. Weeks
stated that Staff prefers the gate to be located in the driveway on
Tamiami Court. Commissioner Pistor stated his concern about the
possibility of refrigerater trucks running their motors all night
long, as it could become very annoying.
Mr. William White, Petitioner, stated that the only reason the
truck parking spaces were requested was for the overflow of trucks
during watermelon sea~on. He stated he doubts very much whether there
will ever be a refrigerater truck parked at the motel. He stated
that headlight glare is not a problem since the closest residence is
326 feet away.
Commissioner Pistor moveð, secondeð by Commissioner Gooðnight anð
carrieð unanimously, that Resolution 87-85, Petition' PU-86-30C,
william F. anð Pearl D. White, requesting Provisional Use "i" of the

CONTRACT WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION AUTHORIZING
THE ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION CONTROL DEPT. TO SELECT WELLS
TO BE USED IN THE DEPT. OF HRS PRIVATE DRINKING WELL SURVEY - APPROVED
Environmcntal Scicnce and Pollution Control Director Lorenz
requested the Board to enter into a contract with DER that would com-
mit the ESPCD to select the wells to be used in the Department of
Health & Rehabilitative Services Private Drinking Well Survey. He
stated that in return for these services, the County will receive
$5,570 in operating costs. He stated that ESPCD will choose 70 resi-
dential wells which meet the HRS well completion criteria and repre-
sent proper statistical distribution and aquifer selection from a
population distribution map developed by that department.
Mr. Lorenz said the ESPCD currenèly analyzes the quality of pri-
vate drinking water wells in the County. He stated the HRS survey
would allow continuation of this task and also pay for it. He stated
the fiscal impact on this contract is zero, since it will reimburse
100% of ESPCD efforts.
Commissioner Pistor stated this matter is very important and asked
if there will be more than 50 wells and wondered if they will be
spaced around the area? Mr. Lorenz stated that this contract will
begin with 70 wells for the Health Department to ultimately sample,
which is over and above the 60 wells per year currently being sampled
by the ESPCD.
Commissioner Saunðers moved, seconded by Commissioner Goodnight

SALARY INCREASE FOR BUILDING CODE COMPLIANCE DIRECTOR - APPROVED
County Manager Lusk requested that this item be heard at this time
and stated that he would give the presentation. Mr. Lusk explained
that when the Building Code Compliance Director was hired, three
people had been interviewed - Mr. Magri and two candidates from within
the State of Florida. He stated that both candidates had requested
salaries of S36,000 per year. Mr. Lusk stated that Mr. Magri was the
top choice and was hired at $29,000 per year and promised that his
salary would be increased to become comparable to other Building Code
Compliance Directors in the State.
Mr. Lusk stated that Mr. Magri has proven himself and is doing an
excellent job and should be making a competitive wage. He said that a
wage comparison study has been completed and these salaries range from
$34,000 to $43,000 per year. He reiterated that Mr. Magri's salary
should be increased to the level that would have been needed if
someone from outside the County employ had been hired one year ago.
Mr. Lusk stated he has no hesitation in recommending that the
Board approve this increase. In answer to Chairman Hasse, Mr. Lusk
stated that Mr. Magri will receive the regular cost of living increase
the same as every othe~ County employee in October.

Citizens Group.
Mr. Dick Braun and Mr. Joh~ Keschl spoke in opposition to the
increase citing Mr. Magri's qualifications and many other employees in
the County deserving a raise.
Mr. Gary Carlson and Mr. Bill Jones, CCBCA members, spoke in favor
of the increase citing responsibility for safety of citizens, the
iact that Mr. Magri has initiated education programs for contractors,
cooperation and efficiency of department, tremendous workload,
understaffed department, and rapid growth of County.
In response to Mr. Braun, Mr. Lusk stated that Florida State Law
requires Building Code Compliance Directors to be either an archi-
tect, an engineer, or an experienced building official in the building
construction trades. He said Mr. Magri has 20 years of experience.
He said Mr. Magri did, and does, meet the qualifications of State Law.
Mr. Lusk also stated that Mr. Magri is a Certified Building Inspector,
Certified Building Plans Examiner, Certified Building Official, and
under the State of Florida he is also a Certified Municipal Fire
Inspector. He said the issue is not whether or not Mr. Magri has the
ability and qualifications to do this job.
Mr. Lusk further mentioned that Mr. Magri runs one of the toughest
departments in Collier County. He stated that Mr. Magri also needs
more building inspectors and that item will be presented in a couple
of weeks. He also stated that this raise is the last installment that
was promised to Mr. Magri at the time he was hired and agreed to take
Page 17

the position.
Commissioner Pistor stated that th~re are many alleged experts
that claim that Collier County is the fastest growing area in the
United States and there is a tremendous amount of building going on at
the present time. He stated that he is in agreement with Mr. Lusk
that more building inspeclors need to be hired. fie added that he has
reports from builders and contractors that Mr. Magri is doing an
excellent job and has reorganized that department to provide better
and more efficient service.
In answer to Mr. Keschl, Mr. Magri stated there are presently 12
building inspectors, all of which are certified by the Standard
Building Code Congress, and in addition there are 11 Zoning inspec-
tors.
commissioner Pistor moveð, seconðeð by commissioner Gooðnight anð
carrieð unanimously, that the salary of the Builðing,code Compliance
Director be increased by 5.7%.
PRESENTATION BY STATE ATTORNEY JOSEPH P. D'ALESSANDRO - NO ACTION
State Attorney Joseph P. D'Alessandro stated that on August 5,
1986 the Board of County Commissioners requested an investigation into
allegations made by Vjckie Mullins, former Community Development
Administrator. He said that on August 12, 1986, he appeared before
the Board and advised that an inquiry would be conducted within the
scope of the jurisdiction of his office.
Page 18

..
APRIL 14, 1987
Mr. D'Alessandro stated that his staff conducted its inquiry with
ð view towards determining whether or not the criminal laws of the
State of Florida had been violated. He stated that the inquiry
resulted in the determination that no crimina+ laws of this State had
been violated and in addition, also revealed that no formal alle-
gations of criminal violations had been alleged or discovered.
Mr. D'Ale~~andro presented the Board with copies of his report,
since the investigation is closed and a matter of public record. He
explained that the reason the investigation seemed to take a long time
is that the University of South Florida Report had to be reviewed.
In answer to Mr. Lusk, Mr. D'Alessandro stated that they did
investigate some of the allegations which were not criminal and when
it was determined that they were purely administrative in nature,
activity on that allegation ceased. He stated there is reference in
his report of a County Ordinance which was not followed, however,
there are no criminal sanctions for violations of the Ordinance.
Mr. Everett Thayer, Goldcn Gate Resident, stated that he has a
letter from the Second District Court of Appeals and the issue is
completely political. At this point County Attorney Cuyler
interrupted by stating the issue being addressed by Mr. Thayer is
unrelated to the issue being discussed.
Chairman Hasse thanked Mr. D'Alessandro for the report.

RECOMMENDATION FOR STAFF TO NEGOTIATE A CONTRACT FOR ARCHITECTURAL
SERVICES FOR A NEW PASSENGER/SERVICE ELEVATOR - APPROVEO
Public Works Administrator Archibald stated that proposals for
architectural services were requested after the Febrµary 3, 1987 Boord
of County Commissioners meeting. He stated that a committee was
formed to evaluate those proposals and the four firms were ranked,
with Anchor Engineering being placed first. He requested that the
Board authorize Staff to negotiate a contract with Anchor Engineering.
Commissioner Saunders questioned whether there is really a need
for another elevator? Mr. Archibald stated there has been a problem
in placing heavy equipment in Building "F" because it does not fit in
the present elevators. He stated that this ele'ator will also serve
Page 20

as a freight elevator. He noted that with the addition of three
floors to Building "F", the increase in traffic justifies the need for
another passenger elevator.
Commissioner Saunders stated that the additional three floors have
all of ·their equipment now and it is questionable as to whether it
will have to be moved again. He asked if there are any standards for
the number of passengers justifying an elevator? Mr. Archibald stated
that there is information which was previously generated on this sub-
ject and Commissioner Saunders stated that he needs more justification
before he can approve negotiating a contract.
Commissioner Pistor stdtcd that the need for the additional eleva-
tor is justified.
commissioner ristor moved, seconðeð by commissioner Glass anð
carried 4/1 (commissioner Saunders opposed), that Staff is authorizeð
to negotiate a contract for architectural services for a new
passenger/~ervice elevator with Anchor Engineering.

APRIL 14, 1987
Mr. Dorrill stated that as a result of negotiations with the
Shawmut/Westinghouse team, Staff has prepared an analysis on tipping
fees which would be instituted within the first year of completion of
the plant. He stated the analysis is shown in two ways: an estimate
for resource recovery with Shawmut/Westinghouse and an estimate
including on-going County costs such as administration for collection
fees at the landfill and the operation o~ the three transfer stations.
Mr. Dorrill stated that the figures shown in the analysis are
substantially higher than those originally projeGted in December of
1985. He added that the fees currently estimated for this project,
however, are no worse or better than any other project constructed or
under contract within the State of Florida. He said the fees are
somewhere between $40 and $50 per ton.
Mr. Dorrill stated his recommendation is to quit throwing good
money after bad in the development of this project if there is concern
about the project. He said Staff has generated more. study than any
other community in the State of Florida in the hopes of trying to have
one of these projects, and it is time the new Commissioners made a
decision. He also stated that if the Board wishes to proceed, the
project can be viable, will involve additional costs and the environ-
mental concerns are an emotional issue rather than practical concerns.
Mr. Dorrill advised there are a number of time constraints which
dictate that a decision must be made today. He said the Air Quality
Permit is being heard now and there is a substantial amount of work

which needs to be accomplished before the permits are taken to an
Administrative Hearing early this summer. He stated there is also the
matter of completion of an electric sales agreement with a municipal
power association in order to proceed, as well as renegotiation of a
service contract, which has expired. Mr. Dorrill estimated it will
cost $50,000 to $70,000 in legal fees to accomplish the renegotiation.
He added that the westinghouse parent company backing is also needed
for security for the Series "D" Bonds.
Mr. Dorrill stated that after the Board decides the fate of the
current project, he would like a discussion on which direction the
Board wishes to take on the issue of resource recovery.
Mr. Charles Ezarine, President of Shawmut Engineering, stated that
resource recnvery fOl Collier County is inevitable and only
questionable as to when it will happen. He stated that they have
negotiated a contract which will reduce the amount of MSW materials
going into the landfill and lengthen the life of the current landfill
by at least 10 times. He said this contract will also give the County
the opportunity to mine unlined cells and potentially mine areas that
could be problems in the existing landfill. He said the environmental
advantages to this system are self evident within the proposal and
will be heard on June 8, 1987 and will be proven to be the most
restrictive ever issueG in Florida.
Mr. Ezarine stated that the conservative estimates on cost that
have been worked up by County Staff are indeed very competitive with
~OtIK lOan'".! 432

APRIL 14, 1987
contracts which were awarded a couple of years ago and the nation
wide tipping fees are in the $50 to $60 per ton range. He noted that
the County is pretty well insulated from escalating costs during the
20-year period and with resource recovery the costs are known as
opposed to the unknown with a landfill. He noted a recent magazine
article that indicated that landfill costs will be in the $90 to $100
per ton range in 20 years.
Mr. Ezarine stated that the County is growing very rapidly and
this plant can open in 1990. He stated the tonages used are conser-
vative and that for every 50 tons in excess of the 500 tons will
reduce the tipping fe¿ by $3 per ton. He also stated that the
contract gives a guarantee of separation for metals, aluminum, etc.
out of the system and there is no factor for the sale of these
materials, however, if those materials are sold, the figure reduces
the tipping fee by $3.50 in the first year and by $9.22 in the 20th
year.
Mr. Ezarine ~tated that the opportunity with the Florida Municipal
Power Authority will not be there very long. He said they only have a
need for approximately 20 megawatts which is the size of the proposed
Collier County plant. He said the utility has offered 80% of the
upside benefits and low oil prices are keeping that figure low,
however, if oil prices escalate the benefits will be reflected back to
the County. He noted that there is also a capacity component which
has nothing to do with energy and the County will have 80% of the

benefit of all capacity.
Mr. Ezarine pointed out that all information submitted is very
conservative but close to a worse case estimate of what resource reco-
very means in terms of dollars. He said he feels that the Board has
received optimistic projections on cost of utilizing a landfill. He
then quoted the recently completed R/UDAT Report: "In light of the
extreme sensitivity of the natural environment and potential impact of
the dynamic growth of the area the potential impact of the dynamic
growth of the area, the use of landfills for solid waste disposal is
clearly inappropriate. The Collier County Commissioners must address
the need for an efficient technology for an integrated program for
resource recovery and waste disposal immediately. An appropriate
environmentally sour.d system should be implemented as soon as
possible."
Mr. Ezarine stated that the Shawmut/Westinghouse proposal is an
appropriate and very integrated and environmentally sound proposal.
He requested that the Commission give this proposal the opportunity to
be heard on June 8, 1987
Commissioner Pistor stated that there are a lot of allegations
that this plant will pollute the air and water and request~d that
actual facts be presented as to what the environmental hazards of the
air emissions and ash ore and how the ash can be used. Mr. Ezarine
stated that he is not qualified to answer that question, however, he
knows that the ash from this plant is totally different than a mass

cation DER has received in Florida.
Also in answer to Commissioner Pistor, Mr. Ezarine stated that the
plant will op~rate within all DER regulations with regards to
emissions and dioxins.
In respon~e to Commissioner Saunders, Mr. Ezarine stated they have
been issued the permits on the Erie, Pa. plant and an intervener has
been issued. Commissioner Saunders stated that there has been some
talk that the EPA may classify some of the material as hazardous waste
because of heavy metals. Mr. Ezarine stated there would be no impact
on this because they have guaranteed to remove the heavy metals and
they will not be burned.
The following people spoke against going forward with the present
proposal for the resource recovery plant: Mr. Edward Johanson, Mr.
Everett Thayer, Mr. George Keller, Mr. Ralph Taylor, Ms. Marcia
Fitzgerald, and Mr. Bob Krasowski, citing such reasons as economics,
environmental concerns, landfills are less expensive, unfair to other
original bidders, and the Board should have more facts before pro-
ceeding.
The following people spoke in favor of the current proposal: Ms.
Kathleen Ennis, Bettie Gulacsik, Dr. Charles Stokes, P.E., Ms. Vi
Barclay, Mrs. Charlotte Westman, Mr. Bill Barton, P.E., citing recom-
mendations from experts, the project is inevitable and costs wilf only

The following people spoke against the solid waste resource reco-
very facility citing the hazardous waste that would be generated, the
poor form of the service agreement, the fact that it would be economi-
cally unfeasible, environmentally dangerous, would lack sufficient
trash, would have the possibility of pollution, not be in the best
interest of the public, not enough studies have been done on other
alternatives, and the threat to water resources:

Mr. Dave Goeser, representative of Westinghouse, stated that there
has been a change in circumstances from 1985 to the present date,
adding that the electric rates have changed drastically which has
caused the change in tipping fees, but the facility and operation pri-
ces have not changed. He noted that if the rebid process is done, the
electric power rate will again playa part in the economics.

contract which is unecceptab1e to the vendor or to consider the
modified contract proposed by the vendor. He stated that the
Committee also indicated that the tipping fees anticipated from the
beginning date of 1989 to an ending date of 2008 when bonds would be
retired were compared, adding that these ranges also approximate the
lowest and the highest tipping fees anticipated. He stated that
because of variations in amounts and the timing of these costs over
this 20 year period, the present values at 7-1/2% of these streams of
cost for each of these alternatives were displayed in the Committee's
letter.
Tape '7
Clerk Giles stated that the present values determined for land-
filling was $122 million, the present contract was $111 million, and
the propos~d contrac~ is $181 million. He noted that the fees for the
landfill in 1989 are $16.90 and $43.77 in the year 2008. He reported
that the present negotiated contract shows fees of $31.27 per ton in
1989 and $29.00 per ton in the year 2008, and the proposed resource
recovery contract shows fees of $47.46 in 1989 and $51.69 in the year
2008. He indicated that the Shawmut representative felt that Staff's
projections of tipping fees for the proposed contract are overstated
due primarily to their disagreement as to how much revenue could be
gained from the sale of electricity. He stated that also based on the
information presented, the Committee felt that the estimate of land-
fill expenses were overstated, adding that it was felt from ð cost

standpoint that the Board should not renegotiate the current contract
with westinghouse-Shawmut or consider the proposed contract because
without readvertising for proposals the county could not consider
other possible technologies which might be less expensive and also the
current vendor may improve the recent proposal if it had to be sub-
mitted on a competitive basis. He stated that based on staff's analy-
sis any dramatic increase in cost to landfill probably will not occur
before the year 1992 and the extent of the increased cost from 1992
onward may be overstated. He stated that these figures are based on
the information that was presented to the committee. He stated that a
couple things not add~essed by the committee because of insufficient
information and time constraints was the character of the wastestreams
and the cost that would be ultimately charged back to residential
households and businesses.
Commissioner Pistor stated that if the landfill can be mined,
there would be a considerable difference in the tipping fee charges,
and it would eliminate a contaminate feature and also make it
possible to eliminate having to obtain extra fuel. He stated that
this plant would also be set up to dispose of sludge, which is a major
problem to the County and these are things that the committee
overlooked.
Clerk Giles stated that this information was asked for, but was
not provided and the committee had to report back to the B0ard. He
stated that the increase in the volume of garbage and refuse deposited

does not significantly reduce the per ton cost.
Commissioner Goodnight qU9stioned if the tax free bonds could only
be used for the County, to which Clerk Giles stated that if the pre-
sent bond issue is not viable becauSe of the major changes in the ven-
dor and the County chooses to reissue bonds, the tax free status will
change because these bonds were issued prior to January 1, 1986, to
allow it to be privatized and the bonds tax free and the law changed
after that date.
County Manager Lusk stated that there was more to this issue than
just tax free, adding that one of the reasons for the private vendor
and getting the bonds through before January 1, 1986, was because of
investment tax credits which are part of this project and would not be
part of another project.
Clerk Giles stated that this is correct and whether those tax cre-
dits can be transferred to another vendor, is unclear, and is
something that the bond counsel would have to determine.
Commissioner Hasse stated that this project has taken two years
and everyone has worked hard on it, and it is time to make a decision.
commiss~oner pistor moveð that the Boarð direct statt to renego-
tiate the service Agreement.
Commissioner Saunders stated that he needs an opinion from the
County Attorney as to what parts of this item he can participate in,
to which County Attorney Cuyler stated that it is his opinion that
there is a conflict on the vote but participation can take place with

regards to comments and questions, adding that Commissioner Saunders
would have to abstain from voting.
Motion died for lack of a seconð.
County Attorney Cuyler stated that if the Board goes forward, a
majority vote is needed. He stated that if the Board does not want to
go forward, there are two options; one of which is that the Board takes
no action prior to May 11, 1987, and then the provisions of the exten-
sion agreement will automatically come into effect which means that
the Trustee will release the documents to the County and the parties
will hold each other harmless; and the second method to do those same
things would be that 8ither party could actively put those provisions
into effect and the Board of County Commissioners can by majority vote
send notice to Westinghouse, Shawmut and the other parties and put
those provisions into effect right now.
commissioner Pistor moved that the Boarð abstain, from any action
this date.
Motion ðied for lack of a second.
commissioner Glass moveð, seconðed by Commissioner Gooðnight anð

various documents and the rights to the bonds. He stated that he is
concerned with continual landfilling and long-term impacts of future
landfilling and he will need time to evaluate what some of the options
would be and report back to the Board at a later date.
Commissioner Hasse stated that he should work with the County

Item '9B4
CONCEPT OF CONTRACT URAL WORK FOR TAX COLLECTOR - APPROVED AND PAYMENT
OF SAME TO BE REVIEWED AND BROUGHT BACK TO BCC
Public Works Administrator Archibald stated that thi9 item is to
recommend the addition of improvements to Building "C-l" to serve the
motor vehicle licensing area. He stated that he has established the
approximate cost of this improvement and the Tax Collector has offered
to handle the contract for those improvements so that the services
that he provides to the public are not adversely affected by under-
taking these improvements. He noted that Staff has estimated the cost
of the improvements t~ be $17,500 and the Tax Collector stated that he
would assume the responsibility for any increase in cost above that
amount. He stated that Staff recommendation is for approval and to
authorize the Tax Collector to undertake these improvements. He noted
that the Staff prepared the plans and they have been provided to the
Tax Collector and he will contract the work out and be responsible to
make payments under that contract. He noted that in Fund 301, there
are not sufficient reserves to cover this ðmount and as a result, he
is requesting that a budget amendment be transferred from the General
Fund to F~nd 301 for the purpose of this work.
Commissioner Hasse questioned if the Tax Collector has any funds
to contribute to this, to which Mr. Archibald stated that he could
contact him and determine if he would want to assume the total cpst
and then take it out of the funds that he collects.

APRIL 14, 1987
Clerk Giles stated that as far as the idea of the Tax Collector
using his existing budget, which is funded by commissions and fees from
several different taxing authorities, he does not see a problem with
it. He stated that he does not know if the Board can transfer a lump
sum to the Tax Collector because there is a responsibility to pre-
audit bills. He indicated that the actual paymcnt of the bills should
come out of the County funds in order to determine what is being paid
before it is p~id.
Commissioner Pis tor stated that the Commission is contracting for
the remodeling of Building "C-l" and questioned why this additional
work has to be done through the Tax Collector as it is still the
responsibility of the Commission to supply the office space for the
constitutional officers?
Public Works Administrator Archibald stated that this work was not
part of the original contract and as a result, the question is whether
the Commission wants to perform that work under contract or have the
Tax Collector handle the contract and make payments. He stated that
there are advantages from Staff's position with regards to the Tax
Collector handling this matter.
Clerk Giles stated that it is the responsibility of the Board of
County Commissioners to pre-audit before it is paid and he is not sure
if these fllnds could be advanced.
County Attorney Cuyler stated that he has not reviewed this item
and it should be continued for one week.

Mr. Archibald stated that some of the work has to be started
because much of it has to be done during off-hours and weekends, which
is another reason that the Tax Collector wanted to have control over
it. He questioned if the cuncept of the work could be approved and
then have the financing worked out at a later date?

Item f9Bs
RESOLUTION 87-86 ESTADLISY.ING 1\ "NO PASSING" ZONE ON KINGS WAY IN
FOXFIRE SUBDIVISION - ADOPTED
Public Works Administrator Archibald stated that a number of
homeowners have expressed concern of passing on a residential street
in Foxfire Subdivision. He stated that Staff reviewed this situation
and has confirmed that 4,300 feet is marked for no p~ssing and the
remaining 3,300 feet is not marked on Kings Way. He stated that a
resolution has been prepared that he is requesting be adopted to
establish a "No Passing" zone on Kings Way, adding that the cost for
striping this roadway would be $3,400.
County Manager Lusk stated that when Santa Barbara Blvd. opens in
October, this will alleviate a lot of the traffic on this street,
adding that there should not be any passing in residential areas to
begin with, but when the County starts putting up these signs ev~ry

neighborhood in the County is going to be asking for this.
Mr. Archibald stated that the exception to this rule are roadways
that end up not being constructed as collector roads but roads that
end up .functioning as collector roads because they are connecting to
arterials, adding that in this case, Kings Way is collecting traffic
from Radio Road and Davis Blvd. and as a result it is functioning as a
collector road and it was only built to handle re~idential traffic.
He stated that where there is residential construction along the road
and that road has a certain amount of traffic and a certain amount of
passing maneuvers, it creates a condition that was not expected. He
stated that when Santa Barbara Blvd. opens, the amount of traffic
will probably be chan~ed but the problem of vehicles passing on sege-
ments of the road will not change. In answer to Commissioner Pistor,
Deputy Chief Ray Barnett stated that this will simplify the enforcement.
commissioner pistor moveð, seconðed by commissioner Goodnight and
carrieð unanimously, that Resolution 87-86 establishing a "No passing"
zone on Kings Way in Foxfire Subðivision be adopteð.

LEASE ~GREI~MENT BETWEEN COLLIER COUNTY AND COLLIER MODEL AERONAUTICS
CLUB ON COUNTY OWNED PROPERTY NEAR MANATEE ROAD - CONTINUED FOR TWO
WEEKS
Public Services Administrator O'Donnell stated that this item is
to seek approval to authorize the Chairman to sign a lease agreement
with the Collier Model Aeronautics Club to utilize County-owned pro-
perty near Manatee Road for the purpose of flying model airplanes and
holding club events when necessary. He stated that on May 26, 1981,
the Board approved an initial lease that allowed the model aeronautics
group to use a portion of the property for a period of five years at a
cost of a dollar per year, adding that the Collier Model Aeronautics
Club approached the Parks & Recreation Department to renew the lease
and the County Attorney and Risk Manager has reviewed the lease. He
stated that the Parks & Recreation Advisory Board recommended approval
of this lease, adding that this item was previously tabled pending
possible consideration of either the utilities Division or the
Sheriff's Department making use of part of the land. He stated that
both of these departments have indicated that they no longer would be
using this land, therefore, they are bringing the lease back to seek
Board approval.
Mr. Paul Muenzer, representing Collier County School Board, stated
that he is asking that this lease arrangement be delayed because of
problems that have occurred. He stated that last December they

supposed to be inaccessible.

Mr. Muenzer stated that they are following th~ County right-of-way
and then heading south 800 yards through the school property to get to
the club, adding that he contacted the Club and told them that the
School Board was concerned with the liability of this property being
used and creating a makeshift road that could be a question of title
and legality at a later date. He stated that the School Board attor-
ney, Mr. Siesky, was notified of what was happening and the Club was
notified to contact Mr. Siesky in order to work out a lease or an
arrangement to let them use this property to continue to reach their
club. He stated that he is not objecting to the Club using the pro-
perty, adding that they are objecting to someone cutting their pro-
perty in half without telling them about it. He stated that they
object to the fact that it is becoming a dumping ground and the School
Board would be liable as tt is on their property. He stated that to
the best of his knowledge no lease arrangement has been completed as
of this date and he would ask that this matter be delayed until
everything has been resolved.

how anyone could be arrested for trespassing on County property?

refunds of sewer system development charges that were paid prior to
enactment of Ordinance 86-66. He stated that these fees were
collected from all people within the water and sewer district and upon
passage of the ordinance, fees can only be collected from people that
will receive service per the Master Plan within 10 years, which is
December 31, 1997. He noted that the people that have requested
refunds do not fall within that planning period and have stated that

they did not have an opportunity to come before the Board to request a
refund because they were winter residents and did not receive adequate
notice of the 90-day time period to request that refund according to
the Ordinance. He stated that he is asking for direction as to how to
handle the 9 residents and any future ones that could come into play.
Assistant County Attorney Anderson stated that what he needs is
direction from the Board as to whether the homeowners should be told
that they received ~mple notice or whether the County Attorney's
office should draft an amendment to the ordinance and advertise it and
bring it back to the Board. He stated that if the ordinance is to be
amended, he would like direction as to whether there should be an
additional 90 days for people to come in and apply or whether there
should be a blanket policy that people can apply for a refund and not
put a time limit on it.
In answer to Commissioner Hasse, Mr. Anderson stated that in the
Act that has been sent to the Legislature for the County Water-Sewer
District, he inserted a requirement that the County give notice by
mail to people of their eligibility for a refund and after the notice
is mailed, then they have 90 days to apply. He stated that under the
current County ordinance, there is no requirement of individual notice
to be sent.
Commissioner Glass moved that Staff be directed to aðvertise for

Commissioner Pis tor stated that since there are no present plans
for a sewer system in this area, the impact fees ßhould not be charged
to begin with, and anyone that has been charged should receive a
refund.
The following people indicated that this fee was in compliance
with the laws at the time and were in disagreement with regards to the
notification in order to receive their refunds as a lot of people are
winter residents and did not see this notice in the paper:
Barbara Reed
George Keller
Fred Wohnus
Mr. Crandall stated that he is not sure if the 90-day time limit
is appropriate, adding that he would like to see some language that
would allow for applicable refunds at anytime as long as it is brought
before the Board and certain Griteria is met.
Assistant County Attorney Anderson stated that he feels that a
reasonable time limit needs to be established. He stated that the
legislation that the Board approved has a 90-day time limit after notice
is mailed.
Commissioner Pis tor stated that his problem is that a lot of these
people are part-time residents and if they have to appear to make
application, it may not be worth their while to get this refund if

their money back.
Mr. Crandall stated that he is proposing that they ask in writing
for that refund and if they meet all the necessary criteria, then he
would present it to the Board of County Commissioners and it would be

Board to refund the money until an amendment is made to the ordinance.

those dates occurs earlier, and the purpose of this was to give the
Board an opportunity to review the status of the park operation and the
completion of the Installations on site at some fixed point in the
future. He stated that ~ term of August 31, 1987, or another fixed
date as an alternative would provide flexibility to the County for a
review purpose and would also make this agreement work cooperatively
with the County's determination as to a concession agreement sometime
in the future.

BIDDING PROCESS WAIVED AND ETHERNET NETWORKING SYSTEM TO INTERCONNECT
COMPUTER SYSTEMS IN THE AMOUNT OF $56,116.60 FOR CLERK OF COURTS,
ADMINSTRATIVE SERVICES DIVISION, SUPERVISOR OF ELECTIONS AND OTHER
RELATED AGENCIES - APPF.OVED
Richard Laymon, Director of Management Information Systems for
ClerK of Courts, stated that this is a request to purchase an Ethernet
networking system to interconnect various computer systems, adding
that Ethernet is a local area network, an information pipeline that
interconnects large computers to each other as well as to micro com-
puters and terminal equipmen~ such as videos and printers. He stated
that it allows for resource and data sharing at extremely high speeds;
1.2 million charact~rs of computer information per second. He stated
that the vendor, Digital Equipment Corporation, has been in the net-
working business over 25 years and has the largest installed base of
networking customers in the industry. He noted that this system also
allows for the future growth in the number of terminals, number of
shareable computers and the types of services that can be implemented
such as office automation which includes electronic mail, word pro-
cessing, electronic spreadsheet and calendar management. He stated
that this procurement should be considered as a major positive step in
the direction of compar.ibility among various computers and up-to-
date information systems architecture which lays the foundation for
automated responses to the problems that accompany growth. He stated
that this technology has received the endorsement of both staff and

management. He noted that Digital Equipment Corporation has granted a
16% discount even on the sole source items that are not on the State
Contract, adding that the vast majority of the components of this pro-
ject are on the State Contract. He stated that this project can be
paid for with already budgeted funds by deferring other less essential
equipment procurements until next year. He stated that the Clerk's
office an~ the County Manager's office feels that this issue is
something that is highly desirable, adding that compatibility is the
direction that he is heading toward.
Commissioner Pis tor questioned if the Commission can spend this
much money without going to bid, to which Assistant County Manager
Dorrill stated that the Commission is not required to bid anything,
adding that his advice is to recognize the sole source nature of this
and incorporate that into the motion.
Clerk Giles staled that most of the items listed here have already
been bid by the State and are available under State Contract so they
have been indirectly bid, but not directly bid by the County.
Commissioner Saunðers moved, secondeð by Commissioner Glass and
carrieð unanimously, that the Ethernet Networking system from Digital
Equipment Corporation in the amount of $s6,ll6.60 be approved and the
bidding process be wai?ed.

:Item '12A
COUNTY ATTORNEY TO PREPARE DRAFT ORDINANCE OF COUNTY MANAGER ORDINANCE
AND DRING BACK TO BCC IN ONE WEEK
Commissioner Hasse read a memo with regards to changes in the
County Manager's ordinance, indicating that Item 3 should be deleted
which states that any contract with a County Manager should be valid
for a term of not more than two years with renewal of the contract
being possible by a simple majority vote.
Commissioner Glass stated that he agrees with this, adding that it
would be sufficient lo have control with a majority vote. He stated
that this would eliminate the need for Item 3 because if someone was
not serving at the Commission's pleasure, there is a remedy.
Commissioner Hasse stated that it would be his suggestion that the
memos be turned over to the County Attorney and let him draft an ordi-
nance incorporating the ideas as outlined in the memos.
County Attorney Cuyler stated that he can draft an ordinance and
bring it back for discussion. He stated that with regards to "just
cause" there is an iszue whether this should be defined in the ordi-
nance or in the contract.
Commissioner Saund',rs stated that it is his opinion when one gets
into the issue of "cause", there are problems and a County Manager
Ordinance that provides for a simply majority vote of the entire
Commission to hire and to fire with or without cause is sufficient.
Page 49

BaOK loa Pltr -471
APRIL 14, 1987
He stated that he feels that the idea of IS "cooling-off period" and
contractual provisions providing severance pay should be sufficient
and there should be no mention of "cause" in that situation, in his
opinion. He stated that the other aspect of the ordinance that he
would like to see changed is to repeal in its entirety Section 5,
which deals with the procedure for amending the Ordinance, adding that
this should stil] be a simple majority vote of the Commission to amend
any ordinance.
Commissioner Pis tor stated that if those changes are made, then
every Tuesday he could make a motion to dismiss the manager and wait
until he gets the proper atmosphere so that three Commissioners vote
to dismiss the manager. He stated that with a simple majority, three
Commissioners could change the ordinance to instant dismissal without
cause.
Commissioner Hasse stated that this is what is trying to be
avoided, adding that it is going to be more palatable for the County
Manager and also IS reasonable amount of control for the Commission.
County Attorney Cu~ler scated that as the ordinance reads now it
takes a 4/5ths vote to amend the Ordinance.
Commissioner Saunders stated that in order to amend the ordinance,
there needs to be a motion directing the County Attorney to amend the
ordinance and the proposed amendments are being outlined at this time.
Commissioner Goodnight stated that she has no problem with
changing the County Manager's ordinance to IS three to two vote for

dismissing the County Manager, adding that in many instances previous
boards have tied hands of other boards in trying to do the best thing.
She stated that she has a problem with a two or three week cooling-off
period, adding that it has ~~en the custom of Collier County that the
past three County Manager's have been fired shortly after a new board
has taken over. She stated tha~ a two or three week period is not
enough time to decide if thp.y want to dismiss the County Manager and
she would recommend that it be a 60 day cooling-off period. She
stated that the County Manager's contract states that there is a 60
day time limit that he has to give the Board if he resigns and, there-
fore, the Commission should be consistent and give the Managel:O days
notice. She stated that she has a problem with Section 5 and feels
that it should remain with a 4/Sths vote because the County Manager's
ordinance does inform the public and the County Commissioners how the
County Manager can be fired and hired but it also sets down the rules
of how the County Manager is to operate with this County. She stated
that this County Manager's ordinance was first passed in 1980 and
since that time, it has been changed five times with a 4/Sths vote,
which is not hindering the changing of the ordinance. She stated that
the County Manager Ordinance should state what he is suppose to do and
what his duties are so that the County Commissioners cannot interfere
with the duties of the County Manager unless there is a 4/5ths vote.
Commissioner Saunders stated that he does not have any problems
with keeping Section 5 the way it is, adding that his objective is

'_........"..,."";_.......,_.~""-,.,',-~,--
BOOK 103 PAGt 473
APRIL 14, 1987
that there should be a more simple procedure for dismissing the
Manager. He stated that with the direction that has been given the
County Attorney could draft a proposed amendment, adding that the
issue is going to be whether it will be a two week cooling-off period
or a 50-day cooling-off period, which can be decided at the time that
the ordinance is voted on.
County Attorney Cuyler stated that he has a draft ordinance that
he can attach to a resolution and bring it back before the Board next
week.
Commissioner Glass stated that he does not have a problem with
Section 5 retaining a 4/Sths vote, but he does want a simple 3/Sths
vote to dismiss the County Manager.
Mr. George Keller, President of Collier COllnty Civic Federation,
stated that when the ordinance i8 changed it should require a 4/5ths
vote. He stated that he is against any type of ordinance that would
guarantee a County Manoger six months pay if he is dismissed.
Commissioner Glass stated that this would come under the contract
negotiations and has nothing to do with the ordinance.
Mrs. Charlotte Westman, representing the League of Women Voters,
stated that she would suggest that no action be taken on this matter
until there is a draft ordinance available for the public to look at.
She stated that she feels that it is important for a candidate who is
successful in obtaining the job to receive at least a 4/5th approval
of the Commission, adding that the ordinance should be addressing" the

hiring process as well as the firing process. She stated that Section
5 should also remain in the Ordinance.
County Attorney Cuyler stðted that he has been working on a draft
ordinance and hðs it 95% completed, but needs direction on a couple
of items. He stated that with what has tðken place this dðte, he will
bring the draft ordinance back next week for formal action.
Item U2B
REQUEST FOR TRUST MONIES IN THE AMOUNT OF $lOO,OOO EACH FOR THE GOLDEN
GATE FIRE CONTROL DISTRICT AND THE BIG CORKSCREW FIRE CONTROL DISTRICT _
APPROVED AND COUNTY ATTORNEY TO PREPARE THE NECESSARY AGREEMENTS AND
BRING SAME BACK TO THE BCC
County Attorney Cuyler stated that he had a meeting with the fire
districts that are r~questing funds, adding that Golden Gate Fire
Control District is .requesting $100,000 and Big Corkscrew Fire Control
District is requesting $100,000. He stated that there is $200,000
available for allocation of the fire districts and $30,000 would be
left in the fund and an initial $5,000 set aside for title insurance
and other costs. He reported that he does not have a specific recom-
mendation, adding that one of the requests is for the Golden Gate Fire
District to use $100,000 for construction of a fire statior. which is
clearly within the parameters of the 1983 agreement with regard to the
use. He indicated that Big Corkscrew Fire District is also requesting
$100,000 to be spent toward the purchase of a new fire pumper truck,
adding that he is fairly certain that this is also within the parame-
ters of the 1903 agreement. He stated that he contacted Avatar and
r,onK
103 ~~.r 474
Page 53
&ODK 103 PAGt4 75
APRIL 14, 1987
they have indicated that they do not think that there will be any
problem, but he would not want to make any distribution of funds for
that purpose, subject to an ultimate sign-off by Avatar. He stated
that whatever the Board determines should be distributed will be laid
out in contract documents that he will prepare.
Tape '10
Ms. Carroll, Real Property Management Director, stated that
she supports each request and she is in the process of entering into
negotiations for awarding agreements which will be brought back for
execution. She stated that the monitoring of the disbursement of the
funds will be through the Finance Department and the Finance Director,
who will determine the best way to disburse funds.
Commissioner Hasse questioned what type of build~ ~g will be built,
to which County Attorney Cuyler stated that he has been shown the
construction plans with regards to the type of building and the
layout.
Commissioner Hasse stated that with regards to the Corkscrew Fire
District, there was so~e discussion as to where the fire station
should be as there are two different locations that they could use.
Assistant County Manager Dorrill stated that when the Board became
concerned about the fires in the Estates, the Board purchased with
County funds a five acre parcel on Randall Blvd. and offered that to
the Big Corkscrew Fire District and the Division of Forestry. He
stated that leases were executed for both parties and the lease was
Page 54

APRIL 14, 1987
consummated with the Division of Forestry and a tower has been
erected. He noted that the Big Corkscrew Fire District was offered
another piece of property adjacent to County Road 846 and while they
have not developed that piece of property, they are in the process of
obtaining a provisional use on that piece of property to build a fire
station at that location. He stated that something that the
Commission mðy like for Staff to address further with the Big
Corkscrew Fire District is to see if there could be a joint use of the
County-owned property along Randall Blvd. He stated that based on
what he has heard, he would think that the Commission would want some
assurance that there would, in fact, be fire stations built and manned
and operated in return for the contribution of money. He stated that
this can be addressed when the County Attorney's office prepares the
actual contracts. He noted that there could be provisions put on the
proper and appropriate use of the money when the County Attorney
brings back an agreement.
County Attorney Cuyler stated that he intends to make sure that
the property is always used for this purpose as well as taking care of
the issues that Assistant County Manager Dorrill mentioned. He noted
that the Big Corkscrew Fire District has indicated that they are
willing to use the money to construct a facility, but they have a
tax levy and they are waiting on an answer from their attorney as to
whether or not the funds can be used to buy a truck instead of build a
facility. He stated that if the money from the tax levy can be used
Page 55
eOOK 103·pÂ.;t476
&m 103 W,t 4. 77
APRIL 14, 1987
to buy a truck, then they are more than willing to use the money
donated by the County to build a facility, but if they can only use
the tax levy money to build a facility, then their request would be
for the purchase of a fire pumper truck. He stated that he checked
with Avatar regarding tne purchase of a fire truck and they have indi-
cated that they have no objection.
Mr. Richard Braun stated that the Big Corkscrew Fire District is
building on the 2-1/2 acres on the corner of Randall because the
County owns the five acres of property where the fire tower is. He
noted that the Fire District was going to be able to use 2-1/2 acres
of the five acre tract, but last election the property owners voted an
additional one mill of tax tQ build a fire station. He stated that
the tax receipts lag in so much time, provisions were made to borrow
the money to build the fire station but in order to borrow the money,
they have to own the property and it must be in their name. He said
that due to the fact that the County owns the property, the Fire
District could not get a mortgage on it, and there is a dire need for
this station.
Commissioner Glass moved, seoonðed by Commissioner pistor and
carrieð unanimously, that a $100,000 donation for the Golden Gate Fire
Control District anð a $100,000 ðonation for the Big Corkscrew Fire
Control District be approveð anð that the County Attorney prepare an
appropriate agreement with each District separately and bring it back
to the Board of County Commissioners for final approval.

rclease was issued to announce a vacancy on the Water Management
Advisory Board. She stated that a resume was received from Dr. Greg
Brooks and Staff and the Water Management Advisory Board feel that Dr.
Brooks is qualifip.d to serve. She stated that she is requesting that
he be appointed to the WMAB.
Commissioner Pis tor stated that this is one of three rather impor-
tant boards with respect ~o the land use operation in the County and
he feels that it is unfortunate that there was only one applicant for
the position, adding that action should be delayed and this position
should be readvertised.
Commissioner Pistor moved, seconded by Commissioner GOoðniqht anð
carried unanimously, that this matter be postponed until it can be
reaðvertiseð and adðitional applicants obtained.
Commissioner Saunders stated that in addition to readvertising,
the seven resumes submitted in response to press releases for posi-

there have been near misses and it is very difficult to get onto Green

would not be needed.
Public Works Administrator Archibald stated that he has not had a
chance to undertake a study at that intersection to determine if stop
signs are needed, but he could do that and bring it back to the Board.
Ms. Lee Layne stated that she has no objection to the stop sign
but arterial street lights are also needed at that intersection.

that indicates Mr. Zenn will extend the time of his contract on the
Le1y Barefoot Beach property to May 25, 1987, in order for the County
to have an opportunity to look at the property and to find out what
the State is going to do.
Commissioner Glass stated that he feels that it is imperative that
the County obtain control of the beach and the State has indicated
Page 60

-
-
APRIL 14, 1987
that it will be June or later before they do anything. He stated that
the County needs to proceed with trying to obtain this property even
if it has to be done on a long-term mortgage basis. He stated that
there needs to be a mechanism to acquire this property no matter what.
He noted that the State has indicated that if they decide to purchase
this property, they could buy it from the County or if the County
wants to own it, the State would not pursue the issue.
Commissioner Pistor stated that he has had several conversations
with people in Tallahassee and at the present time, there is only
$900,000 left in the fund that is being used for this property, adding
that they will know i~ June whether the Legislature approves a $25
million addition that they are requesting and then it will be July or
August before the Cabinet takes any action on what to do. He stated
that Barefoot Beach project is high on the list and it is possible
that the County may get the $900,000. He stated that he agrees that
the County needs to move ahead with the matter.
Commissioner Hasse stated that he is appreciative of what Mr.
Klaas has done and he is requesting that the Assistant County Manager
speak with the people in Tallahassee to see if it would benefit the
County in anyway if he and Mr. Dorrill went to Tallahassee.
Commissioner Saunders stated that' he sent a memo to the County
Attorney suggesting that various financing alternatives be looked into
to see what can legally be done. He noted that staff should meet with
Mr. Klaas and the Department of Natural Resources Director to see what
f¡QO~ 103 PAGE 490
Page 61

can be worked out. He indicated that by the end of May, the County is
either going to have to buy the property with hopes of some reimbur-
sement from the State or not buy it at all, adding that it is impor-
tant to determine the best way to finance this property assuming that
the entire tract would be purchased. He stated that Mr. Dorrill
should also travel to Tallahassee to see what he can work out in terms
of commitments from the State.
Mr. Klaas, representing Lely Development, stated that he has until
May 25, 1987, to accept the offer from Mr. Zenn, adding that it does
not have to be purchased by then, but he must have a contract from the
County by that time or he will have to accept Mr. Zenn's offer.
Commissioner Saunders moved, seconðed by Commissioner Glass and
carried unanimously, that Staff be ðirected to come back on May 19,
1987, with a report on the various alternatives for acquisition of the
Lely Barefoot Beach property which may inolude ad valorem taxes, bond
issue supported by a revenue, a bank note, financing through Lely
Development Corporation or whatever alternatives are available; giving
an outline of the cost of each alternative; that Mr. Dorrill anð the
