Public Works Administrator Archibald stated that the purpose of the Municipãl Service Taxing and Benefit Unit proposed by this ordi- nance is to do provide funds for a preliminary engineering study on the feasibility of a six-mile extension of Sabal Palm Road to Golden Gate Estates. He s~id that the proposcd district boundaries, outlined in the ordinance, ale in accordance with a petition that was submitted to the Board on April 8, 1986, by property owners to under- take a preliminary design of th~ roadway so at some future point con- sideration can be given for construction. He added that the residents have expressed a willingness to pay for the preliminary design and 22 letters have bcen received in support of the project and 2 letters of objection. If the ordinance is approved, he added, it will allow not only for the initial design of a proposed road, which would include the environmental concerns, but also develop a roadway that will meet the concerns of the environmentalists and the regulatory agencies th~t would approve the project at some future date. Commissioner Pistor asked if as a result of the study the recom- Page 4 - - - þ" ~. - - - October 28, 1986 mendation is not to build the road, would the $75,000 still be collected? Mr. Archibald replied "Yes," that the ordinance will create a taxing district ard in 1987-88 the millage will be levied to collect revenues to undert~ke the de3ign; the preliminary design will be funded in 1987-88 but t~e project may proceed with a portion of the design in the current year if the project is feasible and the money can be borrowed in advance. Commissioner Pistor asked if it would be better to borrow the mOI'ey and put the proper amount on the tax bill next year to pay for the rL~ù? Mr. Archibald stated that this project is very involved because of the environmental concerns; the design alone will take 9 months tc co:nplete and if it gets underway imme- diately it will not be com~lete~ in the current year and the total cost or the final feasibility of the project will not be known until many months from now. Commissioner Pistor stated that there will be objections from State agencies. Mr. Archibald stated that the roadway might provide a very important connection, which would mitigate the I-75 project where access will be cut off for many property owners in the Golden Gate Estates from Alligator Alley. Commissioner Pistor asked if the road will connect with other roads off Everglades Boulevard? Mr. Archibald stated that it will connect with 78th Avenue which connects with Miller Boulevard; the State is proposing to build an overpass over Everglades Boulevard in conjunction with I-75, 50 connecting the road to 951 will provide access to many platted portions of Golden Gate ~OO( 098 p~:;! 521 Page 5 ~OOK 098 PÂ';! 522 October 28, 1986 Estates. Commissioner Goodnight stated that the County should proceed with the study because a new Gov'~rnor may not want to go along with a study by the State and it can ~~ modified if the State decides what they are going to do. The following people sp)k~ in favor of the preliminary study: Jim McTd3ue Ellwood -"¡itt George Keller Joe Tow,1send Mr. Ellwood Witt asked if the assessment will be on a benefit basis or on acreage? Assistant County Manager Dorrill replied that that decision will not be made until the completion of the engineering report. Mr. Witt asked if the project is found to be feasible, do the people have a chance for objections? Commissioner Pistor answered aff irmati vely. Clerk Giles stated that the $75,000 would be paid base~ on the value of property. TapG f2 The following people spoke against the study, claiming they will not derive any benefit frow the proposed road: Harry J. Graham William Anthony After a lengthy discussion, Mr. Archibald stated that the people who benefit pay an assessment relative to that benefit, and that the feasibility of building the road will go through the process Page 6 - .-'" October 28, 1986 of public hearing and the property owr.ers will be notified. He added that during the design phase one of the critical items will be how all parcels benefit either directly or indirectly.

Commissioner Pistor asked if the PVAC and Staff are agreeable that even though Checker C~bs of Collier County, Inc., did rIot have an occupational license that they are worthy of a certificate?

Item I9Dl Page 11 !ODK OD8 pv·; 531 --~..,...., &ooK 098 p~'.:! 532 October 28, 1986 REQUEST FOR REFUND OF SEWEF: SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT CHARGES, NAPLES R. V. RESORT - DENIED Utilities Administrator Crandall stated that Staff has been requested by Naples R. V. fark to have their sewer system development charges refunded, claiming that the system will not be constructed in the 10 years outlined in tte Master Plan. He indicated that Napl~s R. V. Park was built in phases and paid in phases; the first payment was September 1984 and the last payment was June 1985. He noted that the sewer system development crarges amount to $125,455. Mr. Crandall pointed o~t that it has been determined that ser- vice to that area is going to be in Phase II, not direct to them but in the form of a major lift station which will allow for all the collection systems that arE within a reasonôble distance. He added that it has been detcrmineè that if the lift station is within a mile of a service, that the service can be provided. Construction is sche- duled to be complcted by 1993 for phase II so it falls well within the 10 year period outlined in the Master Plan, he said. He stated that it is Staff'~ recommendaticn that the request be denied. Commissioner Goodnight stated that the petitioner should be assured that the County will meet its deadlines. In answer to Commissioner Hasse, Mr. Crandall stated that the cost is going to be shared whcn evcryone is finally served. Assistant County Attorney Anderson stated that there was an agreement entcred into bet~een the County and the petitioner in August, 1984, which provides that the owners shall agree to pay all applicable Page 12 .. .. - - - - October 28/ 1986 system development charges at the time building permits are required pursuant to appropriate County and District ordinances and regulations effective at the time of r(~questing the permits. He added that in the zoning Ordinance it states that applicable County ordinances relative to water and sewer system development charges shall be complied with. Attorney Jim Siesky, repre~enting the petitioner, st~ted that the Board of County Commissionnrs passed an ordinance in September that stated that if there is no construction contemplated by 1997 fees would be refunded, however, although the County anticipates that there might be a connection by 1997, if there is none, the money stays in the County's account and i3 not returned which is not fair to the petitioner. He added that the first payment was made in September, 1984/ and if the connection is not made by December 31, 1997, that would be a period of 13 yedrs or more. He noted that if the service is provided by 1993, the p.~titioner's funds would have been on deposit in the County's account gaining interest for a period of over 7 years. He stated that it is fair 3nd equitable under the Ordinance that the funds be returned, and in the event that service is provided to the area, the pet~tioner would be compelled to connect to the system. In answer to Commissio~er Hasse, Mr. Siesky stated that if the money WJS refunded, at the time the petitioner connected to the system he would pay the impact fe~s then in effect. Attorney Anderson said that there is a refund pro:edure in the Ordinance that if service is not provided by December 31, 1997, there are 90 days after that date &OOK 098 Pt~: 533 Page 13 ..... .... "'II; .... "oo~ 098 s>~:.~ 534 October 28, 1986 to apply for a refund. Commissioner Hasse asked if that included the interest? Attorney Andcrson replied that he cannot concede that the interest will be included. Mr. Jim Kingsberry, the petitioner, stated that he feels that his request is reasonable, and at the time that he sat through the Comprehensive Plan, the urban development ðrea was one mile east of 951. He said that when the impact ordinance was passed he had purchased the property which was outside the urban area. He noted that after receiving the PUD and getting into the formal construction, the impact fees were paid to be able to obtain permits and proceed with the project. He added that they have built a sewer plant and drainfield. He indicatcd that the interest ov~r 10 years has more than doubled the fee for the sewer. He asked if, when a lin~ is extended in 1993, since all fees would have been paid, would he be 3sked to pay additional fees? Mr. Crandall answered negatively. Commissioner Hasse asked if the line does not go out by 1997, will the petitioner be reimbursed oolhatever he has paid in the interim? Attorney Anderson replied that the petitioner would have to apply for a refund, which would come before the Board for approval or denial. Mr. Crandall mentioned that the present refund policy is an improve- ment over the old one. Commissioner Holland asked what the Cbunty's obligation would be regarding interest when applications are made for refund? Attorney Anderson stated that he would not concede that at this point, but Page 14 - - - .. .. .. October 28, 1986 the court might order the County to do so. Commissioner Holland asked where the money would come trom if interest had to be paid? Attorney Anderson replied that it would come from the interest which is in an account. Clerk Giles stated that there is no method to segregate system development fees that are not going to be used, the presumption 1S that all money will be used for the development of the system and It is booked as revenue, so ~n' 1997 he does not know if there will be money set aside for reiunds. After a lengthy diGcussion, Commissisoner Voss asked if the Ordinance says that refunds Cdn be applied for in 1997 and not today? Attorney Anderson stated that if people are not going to be serviced under any of the first 3 phases of the Plan, and have paid, they can IIpply today. Commissioner Voss stated that under the O:dinance the Board cannot authorize the refund at this point, even though he is sympathetic to the petitioner's financial situation, adding that there are two alter- natives, one is to change t~e ordinance and two is to cut the "bump" off and exclude the petitiorer forever, both of which are time con- suming. Mr. Siesky said thét there is no indication of service to the properly by 1997. Mr. Crandall stated that the intention is to pro- vide the service because urban development is going to occur; the phases are planned to have service by 1993, and to have a system in closer than a mile by 1997. Mr. Siesky askej if the County has adopted any plan whatsoever, aDaK 098 PAjt 535 Page 15 ~OOK 098 P~~·t 536 October 28, 1986 other than the what is shown on the map, for collection systems beyond the terminus? Mr. Crandal' replied that it would require a future review by the Board for the collection systems. commissioner Voss moved, seconded by Commissioner Goodnight, that the request for refund of Sower System Development Charges to Naples ij. V. Resort, be denied. Commissioner Goodnight stated that if the Board begins to refund im~act fees, the regional plans for water and sewer cannot be accomplished, and she belie~es the process should not be started. Commissioner Holland asked how many other fces the County has collected where the County faces the possibility of making refunds? Mr. Crandall stated that research was done and there is a potential half million dollars worth of refunds that may be requested. Commissioner Holland stated that he is not in favor of keeping the petitioner's money Bnd face the possibility of refunding not only $125,000 but much mure. Commissioner Hasse s~~~ej he is concerned about the interest over the period of time the County will have the money. Commissioner Pistor stated that the question of the interest will have to be decide¿ at the time of the refund. Commissioner Pistor asked how soon the final plans will be available? Mr. Crandall replied that for this partiçular phase, they will not be ready untiJ 1991 or 1992 because construction is not anti- cipated until 1993. Page 16 .. .. .. '- October 28, 1986 Upon call for the question, the motion carried 4/0, Commissioner Holland opposed. **** Deputy Clerk Kenyon repl.lced Deputy Clerk Ruiz at 10:SO A.M. **** Item 9D2 AUTHORIZATION GRANTED TO DRAW $7,630,000 FROM CAPITAL CONSTRUCTION FUNDS PLUS ISSUANCE COSTS TO PROCEED WITH VARIOUS UTILITIES PROJECTS Utilities A~ministralor:randall stated that on August 6, 1986, ne E~~rd authorized the issuance of $76,600,000 of Capital i:;"~:ovement Program Revenue Bonds, Series 1986, adding that utilities projects that are currently underway or that have been authorized for de:sign need initial funding and he is requesting that the Board alJthorize the bond pool draw of $7,63C,000 plus issuance costs from this bond issue. He noted thet he is asking $3,500,000 for the "egional Water Treatment Plar,t Expansion; $750,000 for the Golden Gate W~llfield Expansion; $400,00(1 for the North Naples Water Transmission M~in; $1,290,000 to payoff the Lely Wastewater System; and $1,690,000 for the South County Regiona:_ Wastewater facilities. He indicated that the design of the Regional Water Treatment Plant Expansion and the Golden Gate Wellfield Expansion is nearly complete with construc- tion to start soon; a design engineer has been selected for the North Naples Water Transmission Mðln and negotiations for a contract are current~y underway; and authorization has been granted to proceed with the design report phase for the complete design of the South County Regional Wastewater facilities, but monies are not available to complete that design without a draw from the bond pool. He reported ~oaK 098 P:;'; 537 Page 17 TlOOI( 098 w;. 538 October 28, 1986 that the projects relating to the South County Regional Wastewater facilities were not part of the recent rate adjustments and will, therefore, impact the 1987/98 budget and result in a rate adjustment at that time. Financial Adviser Dave Fischer $tated that the way the issue was ~esigned, it required Board approval to be drawn down. He stated t.:~t he is ready to draw down the pool and the money would be available within 60 days, and he will come back with the best fJ.nancing. Clerk Giles questioned when the money is drawn down if it has to be used within 60 days and also questioned Nhat the issuance costs would be? Mr. Fischer indicated that this new money can be arbitraged for 3 years. Mr. Fischer indicated that if this money is kept in a variable rate, there is very little issuance cost involved as it has already been taken care of, but if it goes to a fixed rate, the investment banker would have a fee and there would be additional issuance costs. He stated that this would not be determined until December or January. commissioner Voss moved, seconded by Commissioner Hasse and carried unanimously, that authorization be granted to draw $7,630,000 from capital Construction Funds, plus issuance costs, to proceed with various utilities projects.

Mr. Krasowski stated tnat he is requesting funding for Mr. Bernd Frank and Mr. Paul Connett to come to Collier Coun~y to discuss alter- nate methods of disposing of solid waste. He pres~nted background ~"aterial on both gentlemen, ~ndicating that there are a number of con- c~rned citizens that would like to hear their discussions and he is requesting that the Board he.p defray the cos~ of this trip for these 9~ntlemen to fly to Naples. He stated that it would cost approxima- tl~ly $1,650. The following people spoke against the Board funding a request for t.:ansportation expenses to discuss alternate methods of disposal at this time as the County is already under contract and it would be a waste of taxpayers' money: Bettie Gulacsik John Keschl Charlotte Westman ~r. George Keller indicated that $1,650 is a small price to pay to possibly resolve some of the concerns of the people of the County. He stated that it may be money well spent. County Attorney Cuyler stated that he is not sure about the lega- lity of this matter, addir.g that he has no problem with an objective or informed decision but this individual is õn adversary to what the Board is trying to accompJish.

BCC AUTHORIZES FISCHER JOHNSON TO CONTINUE USING SMITH BARNEY FOR PROJECT BOND ISSUES Page 31 ðûD~ 098 W.! 555 ---- , MO·, egg P~~·t 556 October 28, 19J5 Commissioner Pistor indicated that he had asked Mr. Fischer to give an explanation on refurding and financing of refunding. Mr. Dave Fischer, financ.l.Ü Adviser, stated that Commissioner Pistor asked him to go over refunding a.ld '¡OH . hey get to be larger than the bond issues that a~e actually bein~ refunded. He stated that cher~ was also a question r'~garding insurance. He presented a booklet to che Commissj)O regarding various bon <'I issues in Collier County. He referred to an overhead ·~h3rt indicating in the last two years, the Board has had the most effective financing in the State of Florida. HI~ noted that the bond issu~ that was done in August was a good issue, tnd the week before Collier County did their bond issue, Lee County did one, but Collier County did a lot better. He indicated that if th~ same costs were applied to Collier County as Lee County, it would h~ve cost Collier County ap¿roximately $329,000 more. He stated that thIs same example could be ~sed in all issues that were done over the last two years. He noted t~at in 1982 management fees were around $3 and $4 and are now down to 8.75, as well as tr.e printing of the Offi- cial Statement. He noted that computer costs have gone to zero. Mr. Fischer referred to the $31,375,000 bond issue that was done 1n August, adding that the old issue was $29,230,000, adding that there was a difference of $"7I O,QOO more on the new bonds than the bonds that were refunded. lIe sta'~ed that" from the issue, underwriter expenses are subtrac~ed, whlch was $450,000; issuance costs, which were $117,000; and discount of a $173,000; which makes the total cost Page 32 - l¡g - -- -- October 28, 1986 of issuance $740,000. He stated that when the costs are applied the rates ore reduced and the gross savings are over $3 million and pre- sent values savings are $1., ~illion. He slated that when an old issue is rl3funded, the Coun t" pays a lot more for the new issue to get it accomplished, but the net result is whð~ i~ will do over the life L: the issue, which i~ to S3ve'a lot of m~n~y. Mr. Fischer stated that people have been asking what the Resource Re·::overy Bond issue is doin3, notin';l that it is sitting in escrow u~til all the permitting has been accomplished. He stated that the bClnd issue will probably no: come out or escrow until at least February 1st. Mr. Fischer stated tLa': with regards to insurance, when a bond Jssue is insured a lower rate is normally obtained. He stated, fo:: eKample, if there was a $20 million issue with an "A" rated bond it wC"11J sell for 7-1/2% but a Triple "A" would sell for 7-1/4%. He st:ð\.ed that wi th an "A" rati ng, the County pays the pr ice. He stated that the total interest cost. would he $18,493,000 over a period of 20 years at: 7-1/4% and if the f'ame issue of an "A" rated bond non- insured, the interest cost would be $19,236,000, which means there would be a savlngs of $746,000 approximately, which beats the cost of the insurance. He stated that i:' the interest rate goes down, then t~e savings goes down and tt.e test is whether to sell close to the ~ate if insurance is not obtained and be penalized in the interest charge, adding that some cit.ies do it. He stated that in the future Page 33 ~ODK Og.g P,~·t 557 _II aOD!; 098 P'\'jt 558 Octobe. 28, 1986 Collier County may be able to ~o it, not on the utility bonds, but possibly on othcr jssues. E_ stated that wittl -ef~"ding, the County does not have to worry because they pay for themselves. He stated t.~at if there was a bond iS3ue that was n,t refunding, he may look at tl." .lnSJrance issue. Commissioner Voss questioned if the insurance premiums can go de,wn, to which Mr. Fischer replied affirmatively, adding that this d~pends on the County's name. Commissioner Voss questioned if the water and sewer authority is vet up, how will the County transfer the assets from one pool to another, to which Mr. Fischer stated that he thinks that it is going to ~e difficult because the mon~y that is sitting in the pool is for the County and not an authority. He stated that he does not think thac this money can be transferred over. Mrs. Susan Fischer stated that the document is set up for County use or County affiliated use and if it is set up as a totally s~parate entity or authority, it may create problems. Mr. Fischer st~ted that there is a possibility that the arbitrage could be lost in a situation like this. Mr. Fischer stated that in order to accomplish the Utilities Dire~tor's goal, he is going to have to get going on the bond issue and he is going to have the tedm on board~ He stated that when Smith Barney and PaineWebber g~ve their proposals for the multi-road bonds, it was do~e on the basis that they would also do the project Page 34 - ..¡ - - .. .. October 28, 1986 bonds as they came out. He stated that this is not necessary, but this is the way the bid W6S. He stated that Smith Barney would not charge any management fee~; [or honds that Cdme out as project bonds, adding that if the Board of ~ounty Commissior.?r3 w0uld like to con- tinu~ working with them, he would need sC'lIte '.¡:dicatiC'n from the Board. Clerk Giles questioncd what other fees would be involved, to w!.~r~ Mr. Fischer stated that if the variable rate is left, there would be an additional take-down fee or commissions to be paid and c~rtain other expenses. fie stated that there would be minimal fees. Hn stated that this would be brought ba~k to the Board. commissioner Voss moved, seconded by Commissioner Goodnight and carried 4/0, (commissione~ Rolland out of the room), that Mr. Fischer :,e authorized to continue with smith Barney for the project bon1s. Clerk Giles stated that next week, he will be bringing back to tl'c Board the fee of the bond counsel for the last three bond issues, ad~\ng that neither County Manager Lusk nor himself has negotiated this fee with Mr. Giblin. County Manager Lusk 6tated that he had a qiecussion earlier this d¿,t'c..·regarding -bon:] counsel fees and bidding and he feels that it would be a mistake to bid, but there should be negotiations. He stated that this would be his re=ommendation if the Board does not have a problem with that. Clerk Ciles stated that he would be bringing this back on the Clerk's report for discussion. ~DDK 09'8 w.~ 55.9 Page 35 ~JQ~ 098 w,t 560 October 28, 1986 *** There being no further business for the Good of the County, the meeting was adjourned at 12:50 P.M. by Order of the Chair.
