Agenda Item # 7 A Meeting Date _ I P (,;j,
Presented by C l+tJL.tL S Lfl-6-H- T
Thank you County Commissioners for this time to speak with you t
7 A- ~~Jp~
I am Chuck Slaght and I live at 2918 Lone Pine Lane v t~pO~v v
[I have sent a nu mber of emails and letters to both you and the cepe regarding ~
the Amendment to the Olde Cypress-Woodlands DRI/PUD and I hope you have
had the opportunity to read all the correspondence regarding Olde Cypress from
"aWl parties.]
Today we are seeing the results of broken promises in our government on all
levels: promises that were made verballYI contractuallYI and in literature being
broken at great expense to us and future generations. When you promise
something or are promised something you expect everyone to live up to their end
of the deal!
We are here today for somewhat the same reasonl to formally break promises to
agreements made when Woodlands --- Olde Cypress PUD/DRlls were established.
I sincerely hope that you all would want the developer-builder who agreed with
your predecessors and established through a chain of linked ordinances to live up
to their end of that agreement.
You are well aware of the elements within this agreement that stated the
developer would provide nature trailsl bike lanesl a 3.9 acre parkl and other
amenities. In the beginning there was ample land available to do this had the
developer performed "due diligence and due regardll all promises would have
been fulfilled.
Stock Development is coming before you to ask this Commission to drop elements
within the various ordinances thus eliminating these amenities due to an
"administrative errorl this is just not truel contractual elements are not simply
dropped from agreements especially when drawings/plans are merely changed.
[A major portion of the community wants and deserves a park!]
I know that most if not all of you are aware that in a meeting in 2008 and in a
February straw vote of the community that 51% of those polled wanted some
form of a park. An attempt lately has been made by the OC Master POA Board to
7 A'~
muddy up the heretofore mentioned straw poll by "selectively' re-polling the
community, using verbiage that is negatively manipulative, was not done through
the neighborhood representatives, and we have had community members
sending negatively charged communiques throughout a select group: who knows
who is actually orchestrating this derisive campaign! Personally, if you fear
reprisals from the owner of "all" your amenities how are you going to vote???
Stock Development has heavily lobbied the community and collaborated with our
Master Board in an effort to change the community's desire for a park with
promises of landscape enhancement, a larger fitness center, and other
improvements to their amenities. Simply stated, all of these improvements are
being competed to facilities which are actually owned by Stock Development,
could be sold to outside investors, are outside the community gate, and are
necessary to enhance the appearance of the approach to the community but
sorely needed to enhance sales.
[Yes it will be a nice improvement to assets which are much in need of updating
but this is merely a capital depreciation expense since the original 1999-2000
original building. I would ask you to compare Olde Cypress with other major Stock
Development communities and their amenities and see the disparity.]
You also have a "concession" document generated by our Olde Cypress Master
Board of five individuals stating they support the Stock Development
"appeasement" plan please note that this is only a Board drafted document
representative of "their desires" not the "entire" community's desire.
[There has been a lot of golf course, clubhouse politicking, and selective email
arm twisting within the community to force their will upon the community.]
I do not want to see precedence set here where developers can come in and
arbitrarily drop major elements and commitments made to local and state
agencies in DRI-PUD-DO agreements.
[This is not just a simple "we measured wrong or built incorrectly' this is the
elimination of a major community amenity of 3.9 acres]
7 A'c~ ')
Each of you are the final stopgap procedure in this amendment process therefore
I am asking each of you to vote NO to the Olde Cypress DRI/PUD amendment
dropping nature trails and the park. I also request that you direct Stock
Development, the County Staff and their expertise, and individuals within the
community who "want a park" to sit down, work with due regard and due
diligence, and hammer this sensitive issue out creating a win-win solution for
everyone.
If you have any questions I will be glad to answer them. Thank You and God Bless
You...

Construction traffic access for the project shall be limited as generally shown on Exhibit C. At
least until the 100th home site slab is poured, construction traffic access shall be limited to
ingress via the existing maintenance access point on Olde Cypress Boulevard, and egress via

Mr. Leo Ochs
Collier County Manager
County Manager's Office

Jeffrey Klatzkow, Esquire
Collier County Attorney
Attorney's Office
3299 Tamiami Trail East, Suite 800
Naples, Florida 34112-5749
Subject: Mamie Street; Chokoloskee Island, Collier County, Florida
Dear Mssrs. Ochs and Klatzkow:
I am writing in my capacity as a private citizen who is interested in the general welfare of the Chokoloskee
community, and in my capacity as former Transportation Director for Collier County (where I served from
1975 until 1995). During my tenure as Transportation Director, it was well known that Mamie Street was a
public road insofar as it was improved and later maintained by Collier County, and provided public access to
the historic Ted Smallwood's Store. Mamie Street's status as a public right of way is based on the
following:
a) Collier County's improvement, operation and maintenance of Mamie Street during my employment
with Collier County between 1975 and 1995, which includes at least one instance in which the
County surfaced Mamie Street.
b) Section 95.361(1), Florida Statutes, which provides that a road that is maintained for 4 or more years
by a county or municipality "shall be deemed dedicated to the public. . . whether or not the road has
been formally established as a public highway."
c) Mamie Street is shown as a public road on the July 1978 Florida Department of Transportation
General Highway Map for Collier County, which map delineates private roads by a separate
designation.
The foregoing is based on the 20-year time period that I served as Transportation Director and I have not
separately inquired whether the public rights in Mamie Street that were established by the County's
improvement and maintenance of Mamie were abandoned or otherwise extinguished. To my knowledge, the
County has never abandoned Mamie Street. Nor have I inquired regarding any separate private rights that
may have been created by adverse possession or common-law principles.
As an added note, there are an additional 10 streets or more on Chokoloskee that are 'private' and not subject
to County operation/maintenance, including Calusa Drive.
Upon review of the above, I remain available to provide additional information as may be necessary.
Sincerely, ~
~~- --
George Archibald

Slow EMS response to fatal heart attack call in
Naples prompts policy review POLL
By AARON HALE
Saturday, April 2, 2011
Editor's note: The original story incorrectly estimated that the city of Naples
pays $12.6 million in EMS fees to Collier County. City officials said the city pays
about $2.6 million annually. The story has been corrected below.
NAPLES _ In pre-hospital emergencies, professionals often say that "seconds count."
But seconds turned into minutes in a fatal March 19 medical call, when a Collier
County EMS ambulance crew arrived on scene nearly 15 minutes after the 911 call
was placed and 10 minutes after Naples firefighters arrived.
Collier County Emergency Medical Services officials deny the ambulance's response
time directly led to the patient's death.
Still, this case and other reports of delayed ambulance response times in the city of
Naples are leading to questions on how ambulances are dispatched and the
effectiveness of communication between the multiple agencies charged with
responding to medical emergencies.
Policies for emergency response are under review and might be changed.
"I worry that if these issues continue, a patient could directly and significantly suffer,"
wrote Dan Bowman, deputy chief of Collier EMS in a March 31 email to the head of
county EMS.
Jackie Dean of 13th Street North called 911 after her 82-year-old mother, Daisy May
Cannon, complained of weakness and began vomiting on March 19.
After Naples firefighters arrived first and took her mother's vital signs, Dean said she
had to wait too long for an ambulance to arrive for hospital transport.
The delayed response was due in part to the "alpha" or low-priority label given to the
call, according to official reports. Ambulances don't respond "hot" with lights and sirens
for alpha calls.
To further complicate matters, the EMS ambulance, which left from a station
neighboring the Naples fire truck, initially went to the wrong address, and ambulance

personnel were unable to reach Naples firefighters by radio to clarify directions,
according to an EMS report.

Thirteenth Street North is split. One portion is west of Goodlette-Frank Road, but that
segment doesn't intersect with Goodlette-Frank Road. The other portion is east of
Goodlette-Frank. According to the EMS report, one paramedic thought he knew where
the call was coming from and directed the driver to the wrong portion of 13th Street
North.
After the ambulance finally arrived, the patient was loaded onto a stretcher.
According to reports, Cannon went into cardiac arrest while being transporting to the
hospital. She later died.
Bowman said initial reports reveal the patient didn't display "serious medical problems"
until she was in the ambulance.
He also said pending a quality assurance investigation into the matter, there is no
evidence to suggest the delayed ambulance response time contributed to the patient's
death.
Dean, still angry Friday over the delayed response, said her mother actually may have
"died from fright."
She explained that her mother was scared of the medical personnel on scene and
panicked as she was strapped into the stretcher.
However, Bowman admitted the issues of the ambulance going to the wrong place and
the lack of communication between agencies are concerning.
The paramedic who directed the ambulance driver to the wrong location was
disciplined by the agency.
*****
Doug Finlay, a Naples councilman, said that by his count there are at least four
instances, including the March 19 call, of slow EMS arrivals in the city. He pointed to a
similar nonfatal case on March 28 at a Third Street South restaurant.
In that call, a patron was suffering from dizziness, was in and out of consciousness,
and vomiting, according to city emails.
Although Naples firefighters arrived five minutes after the initial 911 call, an apparent
miscommunication between dispatch and EMS led to an ambulance arriving 21
minutes after the call, Naples Fire Chief Steve Mcinerny said.
"This entire medical episode took place in front of a very busy lunch hour crowd,
employees and manager," Mcinerny wrote in an email to EMS Chief Jeff Page.
"It appears we have a real problem," Finlay said.

Finlay's chief complaints are the prioritization of medical calls and the frequency of
ambulances "getting lost" on emergency calls.
Collier County emergency personnel operate on a two-tiered structure, which is
designed for firefighters or law enforcement to arrive first on scene to a medical
emergency, with EMS paramedics following behind in more severe cases.
As part of the tiered emergency response system, medical calls are prioritized by
urgency by dispatch officers at either the Collier County Sheriff's Office or Naples
Police Department.
Bowman explained that it would be inefficient and too expensive to have an ambulance
arrive to even the most minor medical calls.
For priority calls, Bowman explained, ambulances go "hof' - meaning drivers fire up
the lights and sirens and take the right of way at intersections. On alpha calls,
however, ambulances travel without emergency lights and are available to respond to
other medical emergencies. They may not even arrive on scene if first responders can
handle the call.
"This policy is widely utilized throughout the EMS industry in order to decrease the risk
to the responders and (the) public from ambulances that are unnecessarily spreading
through traffic and intersections," Bowman explained.
Prioritization also leaves ambulances available to respond to more severe calls
However, Mcinerny said, there is some failure of under-prioritizing calls.
"This call was a priority," Mcinerny said of the Cannon call. "This taxpayer, this
resident, deserved a better response."
Bowman defended the protocol and his EMS personnel. He pointed out that Naples
firefighters didn't directly communicate via radio to EMS staff in either case, making it
more difficult for them to know the severity of the case.
Bowman suggested that instead of changing the entire system, officials need to re-
examine how calls are deemed low priority. He said first responders also need to
communicate directly with ambulance units if a call is more severe than initially
diagnosed.
Mcinerny, who insisted there is a good relationship between EMS and the Naples fire
department, said there is room for both agencies to improve communication.
Bowman said that while EMS officials are reviewing the concerns in Naples, they may
decide to temporarily drop alpha call protocol and go "hot" to all medical calls.
Meanwhile, Finlay said he just wants to see an end to the string of delayed responses.
He estimated the city pays the county $2.6 million annually for ambulance service.

"I do think for all the money we send to (Collier) EMS, the Naples residents should get
more than what we seem to be getting in return," Finlay said.
He added that he is taking steps to explore the idea of implementing a city-run
ambulance service, but is still in the beginning stages of that exploration.

were not funded. Two ambulances were replaced in 20 I 0 utilizing carry forward from

purchase. This leaves a deficiency of seven ambulances for FY 11.

10 D-eR
2010 AUIR - Emergency Medical Services
EMS has traditionally defined level of service standard as 1 unit! 15,000 population countywide.
This LOSS has evolved from a seasonal population, to permanent and then back again to
seasonal. During the 2005 AUIR, the shift from permanent to weighted resulted in a deficit of
available EMS units. The Board directed EMS to add four units to alleviate the deficit. During
the lattcr part of FY06, those f(mr units were staffed and brought on line. However, the facilities
to house these units have not been constructed. Two propelties have been purchased and two
ot11ers have been identified for joint projects with no land cost.
During the 2007 AUIR presentation to the CCPC and Productivity Committee, there was
considerable cli<:{,ll"-51nn to include the ALS Engines in determining levcl of service for EMS. i<J
EMS noted that if the response time goals were changed from 8 minutes countyw'ide (which
could never realistically be achieved because of the cost to provide sufficient coverage in the
rural areas), to 8 minutes urban and 12 minutes rural, and counting ALS Engine response, the
Department was very elose to where it needed to be. Based on the 26.5 umts filen in service, the
LOSS was at 1 unit/16,240 population. The outcome of this joint meeting was a
recommendation that the Bce adopt the 8 minute urban! 12 minute rural response time standard,
in conjunction with a 1116.400 population level of service standard. The Board subsequently
adopted the 8/12 minute, 1/16,400 population LOSS at the November 2007 AUIR meeting.
During the FY09 Budget Hearing, the Bec approved the elimination of two EMS units, for a net
of24.5 units in service. The adopted LOSS of 1/16,400 is illustrated at 24.5 units available. As
indicated in the chart based on the current population projection, a slight deticit begins in FYIO
and increases over the next few years. The three year deficit f{Jf FY II through FY 13 may he
acceptable to weather the current economic crisis. As indicated on the Summary Form, a
proposed station at Vanderbilt/Logan and US 41 and Old 41 would be two of the stations
proposed through FY 14-15.

a world with fewer fires and more emergency medical-related
incidents llud automobile accidents-firefighters are deploying
resources to maximum effect
R. .ight now, the cost of paying a.fi t 'efighter is fO. rem ost.
on city officials' minds. Take San Jose, Calif Over
the past decade, the cost of firefighter wages and
benefits in the big California city has increased
100 percent, while city revenues have only risen by 20 percent,
according to Michelle McGurk, a spokeswoman for the mayor's
office. The average firefighter, she says, now costs the city more
than $180,000 per yea.t: Moreover, the highest-paid employees in
San Jose aren't high-l(;VC1 officials,-or even the city manager-but
upper-level members of the city fire service. Firefighters with 30
years of service can retire as early as age 50, with 90 percent of
their salary.
That was just the beginning of the tough line that the San Jose
mayor's office took when it handed outpink slips to 49 firefighters
summarily rejected the idea, argui.11g that the city wasn't in as bad
fiscal shape as it claimed and thatfirefigbters were being asked to
bear more than their fair share of cuts,
Painting firefighters as something of a pampered class-well
paid with retirement packages that would be the envy of anyone
in either the private or public sectors-would have been unheard
of just a few years ago. Today, it's a widespread practice. After
spending nearly a decade on a post-9/11 pedestul, the profession
recently has been on the receiving end of more stringent scrutiny.
Government officials and the public they represent appear to be
taking a much harder look at exactly what they al'e buying when
asked to spend bigger and bigger bucks on firefighters, firefighting
equipment and emergency response.
In cities where firefighter layoffs haven't occurred, it has fre-
quently been due to concessions wrung from unions-despite
unions' reputation as tough negotiators. But it's not that the
unions have caved in easily to city demands. In Jacksonville, Fla.,
for instance, the firefighters'union at first rejected a contract
calling for a t\vo-year, 2 percent pay cut, and that for the first
time ever l'equired Single firefighters
with no dependents to contribute to
their health insurance. In the face of
rejection, the city promptly followed
through on its tlIreat to layoff 15 fire-
fighters, a messy process that involved
bumping another two dozen active
firefighters to lower-level jobs.
The move was the culmination
of several years of tough budgets f'Or
Jacksonvi1le, says Misty Skipper, a
city spokeswoman, In a city looking at
escalating employee costs of 20 per-
cent in the next five years, it means
that every employee in government
must sacrifice. It's patt of a new real-
ity, "In the pa;,1:, our public safety sec-
tors-police and fire- have essentially
been held harmless;" Skipper says.
"This year we knew the gap couldn't
be addressed just through nonpublic
safety areas."
In the face of layoffs, the Jack-
sonville firefighters' union capitu-
1ated. Besides the 2 percent pay cut,
single firefighters without depen-
dents \viII now contribute 5 percent
to their health-care coverage. while the IS laid-off firefighters
were reinsta ted with the recent ratification of the firefighters'
contract, the dty will still eliminate 15 fire and rescue positions
through attrition.
"Obviously, a pay cut is never good, especially when you're
already on the low end of the pay scale;' says Randy Wyse, presi-
dent of the Jacksonville Association of Firefighters. (Starting pay
for fire and rescue pers01mel in Jacksonville is just more than
$34,000, with additional pay available for medical training, fire-

last fall, a decision that the city laid directly at the feet of the San
Jose firefighter'S union, Local 230.. "Let me be very clear," McGurk
says, "we didn't have to layoff firefighters. It was the decisiOll
of Local 230. They could have come through with concessions."
With an open contract-the firefighter union's collective bar-
gaining agreement expired in June 2()09-the city asked Local
230, along with all other city unions with open contracts, to gjve
back roughly 10 percent in wage and benefit concessions in a deal
that would have saved the 49 firefibrbter positions. But Local 230

One of the big questions right now is whether the

budgets and departments. While police departments, especially
in larger cities, have embraced a more sophisticated and data-
driven approach to the work they do-allowing them to maintain
relatively high performance levels-there's been less willingness
on the fire service's part to embrace data as a way to revamp how
fire suppression, EMS and other cans are handled.
For the most part, firefighting .is still based on geographically
distributed, fixed stations staffed by a set number of personnel
who stand by and wait to be dispatched when needed. For the fire
says Bruce Hoovel~ chief of t1le Fargo Fire Department in North
Dakota. Fargo's protocols used to mirror San Jose's exactly. But
now Fargo fire h'Ucks only roll if "there's bleeding, breathing com-
plications or trauma:' Hoover says. "We now only respond for
true medical emergencies, and that's CUrt.Ul 1 Ull ,"vuul b,,~l, b l
1,000 a Y;-ar, and has keot aonArAtus and manuower III place for
real ~erenCleS!' _
But as mgtough questions about manpower and deployment
is difficult for many municipal officials who don't feel confident
tangling with the community's best and bravest. A way to do that,
however, without going toe-to-toe with the fire service, Wiec-
zorek says, is simply to ask departments for solid, up-to-date data
on demand, along with what measurable results a city is getting
for its TIre service dollal's.
What most municipalities will find
when they start asking good questions
about budgets, deployment and ser-
vice demands is that there aren't many
answers to those questions. "We are rou-
tinely called into communities to look at
manpower and deployment," Wieczorek
says. "We find across the board in small
and large jurisdictions that data is either
nonexistent or totally wrong!'
What drives firefighting in the U.S.,
for the most part, is long-standing prac-
tice, not good, current information on
what's actually happening on the ground,
including number of calls, response
times, seriousness of the incident, geo-
graphical distribution and time of day,
all measured in relation to the geometry
of fire service manpower, equipment and
deployment.
For exan1ple, iri one jurisdiction that
asked the lCMA to come in and do a
thorough analysis of demand, resources
and deployment, the lCMA team looked
at the busiest five minutes the fire depart-
ment had in a year. What did the team find? Even at its busiest
moment of the year, the city still bad seven idle units standing by
ready to respond, with 28 available firefighters. Those are just the
sorts of analyses-in combination wit11 the current budget crisis-
that have emboldened policymakers and budget writers to start
asking tougher questions about what fire departments really need
and how they do business-and asking them to either hold the line
on budgets or cut back
Looldng at both budgets and at more creative and data-driven
waysto handle staffing and deployment are key. "Don't get caught
up in the hyste1'ia h'ap ofbeIieving that if you pursue things like
brownouts and budget cuts that children are going to die and
seniol' citizens will burn up," Wieczorek says. "That might hap-
pen, but only if we keep doing business in the same old ways:' G

service to COl1tinue to peiform in these leaner times, Wieczorek
says, it is now going to have to actively embrace change-and
that's not something that comes easily to the. fire service. "The
old saying in the fire service," Wieczorek says, "is '100 ~ars of
tradition unimpeded by progress.'''
One of the most signific3l1t and widely recognized changes
in the fire and rescue service is that on average, most calls to fire
epartments now are for medical emergencies and not fires-
running about 80 percent EMS to 20 percent fire in most juris-
dictions where the fire service handles both. At the same time,
most calls are either false alanns or not particularly serious. Yet
too few fire departments have adapted very well to these realities.
For example, San Jose still sends an attack pumper with a full
complement of four firefighters to all emergency medical calls,.
Tying up four firefighters an;1." ";g./.'M "~l.t ow'mlly winds

Clam Bay Site Specific Alternative Criteria Proposal
This proposal is premature for the following reasons:
Currently under Florida Administrative Code 62-302.800(7)d:
A deviation process (called site specific alternative criteria, 55AC) cannot
be proposed for nutrients at this time.
The recent state Water Quality Reclassification Rule
(FAC 62-302.400(12)) provides a process for alternative
criteria for nutrients; however, it has NOT yet been
approved by EPA so it cannot be implemented yet.
Any state or federal alternative criteria must be
approved by EPA.
5T A TE 55AC
FEDERAL SSAC
EPA cannot approve any nutrient state 55AC
until they have approved the Water Quality
Reclassification Rule or state numeric
standards are set.
EPA cannot approve a federal nutrient
SSAC until they have finalized federal
estuarine numeric nutrient criteria and
have developed a federal SSAC process.
Therefore,
~
It is Dremature for the County to develoD the Clam Bay SSAC before the aDDroval of
the Water Quality Reclassification Rule or aDDroval of the estuary numeric nutrient
criteria by EPA.
Completing such an expensive process ($77,148) prematurely would be an inefficient use of Coastal
Zone Management Funds and may not result in the desired outcome of a SSAC for Clam Bay.

March 23-24, 2011
Commissioner Donna Fiala
March 23
· Florida Association of Counties (FAC) briefing 9-
11:30 a.m.
Secretary of the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) Billy
Buzzett presented his approach to Growth Management:
· Intent is a more streamlined approach to land use.
· Last 3 years, 90 % of comp plan amendments have been in
compliance.
· "Alternative State Review" process since 2007 Legislature a
pilot in Pinellas and Broward and their municipalities,
Jacksonville, Miami, Tampa and Hialeah, is being considered
expanded to all local governments. Under this alternative,
expedited review, the state review is 65 days, saving 71 days
for a comp plan amendment.
· Amendments for RLSA's and "Optional Sector Plans" would still
be subject to conventional review.
· "Optional Sector Plan" program will be revised to increase the
minimum acreage to incentivize large scale planning. The pilot
program (since 1998) status will be removed and there will no
longer be a cap (law allows five and there are four plans
adopted).
· EAR 7 -year cycle may be an exercise of "pushing paper" and
as far as state requirement, may install triggering mechanism.
· Examining DCA, he determined 94 % of emphasis has been on
federal pass-through of funding (grants) and only 3 % has been
on growth management.

. Focus has been on substance not on form. Now it is on form.
And there is a move afoot to form th is agency... and focus on
the,''substance.
. Goal is to refresh growth management while also recognizing
home rule of local governments in land use planning.
. Re interjurisdictional issues, Sec. Buzzett assured there would
continue to be a DRI process as well as DCA involvement,
oversight to some degree. There would continue to be a DCA
role in land use but it would not be as formal.
. Re Regional Planning Council's, Sec. Buzzett said the bottom
line is the budget. He didn't know at what level the state could
fund RPC's however he assured they'd retain their role in the
process.
FAC Legislative Advocates explained the pending Growth Management bill
in the House:
. Eliminates financial feasibility
. Repeal of 9J-5
. No mandatory update of capital improvement element (CIE)
. Eliminates transportation concurrency as a statewide
requirement... however retains as a local option.
. Eliminates school concurrency as a statewide
requirement... however retains as a local option.
. Senator Garrett Richter 12:15 - 12:45 p.m.
Discussed the Senator's Property Insurance bill SB 408 which
makes changes primarily to residential property insurance. We
wanted most a better understanding of what issues were
included in the bill that would affect Collier County. There were
several strike-all amendments introduced to the bill which make
it a moving target. I stressed the importance of including
available, reliable, and reasonably priced property insurance
and Senator Richter agreed to take those items into
consideration as the bill moves forward. SB 408 is currently on
the Senate floor. The bill addresses the following primary
Issues:
. Requires the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund to provide
reimbursement for -all incurred losses, including amounts paid
as fees on behalf of the policyholder, with exclusions;

. Removes the requirement that a privately owned property
insurer must offer sinkhole coverage, but requires Citizens to
continue to offer sinkhole coverage, with substantial changes in
coverage requirements;
. Revises what constitutes a sinkhole loss;
. Limits the authority of the Office of Insurance Regulation (OIR)

standards for sinkhole insurance claim investigations and
revises the neutral evaluation process for sinkhole disputes;
and
. Provides changes to the procedures pertaining to sinkhole

and repeals the sinkhole database.
In addition to Property Insurance, two other important county issues
were addressed:
. State Aid for Libraries - Floridians and Florida libraries need
$21.2 million for State Aid to Public Libraries and $1.2 million
for Library Cooperatives.
. Transportation Disadvantaged - I also talked to Senator
Richter about the importance of keeping the Transportation
Disadvantaged system coordinated through the CTD and not to
contract out the Medicaid portion of services to managed care.
He then pulled out an index card with 'Transportation
Disadvantaged" written on it and told me he had gotten the
message loud and clear, and had already spoken to Senator
Negron, the bill sponsor (SB 1792). The bill is likely to be
conferenced by both chambers, where TD will be an issue to be
resolved. At this point the House positionllanguage was
preferred: Non-emergency transportation services shall be
provided pursuant to a single, statewide contract between the
agency and the Commission for Transportation Disadvantaged.
The agency shall establish performance standards in the
contract and shall evaluate the performance of the Commission
for Transportation Disadvantaged.

· Commissioner Fiala met with Representative to discuss
fertilizer preemption of local government ordinances, CCNA.
Rep. Williams indicated she supported home rule authority and
would oppose any preemption related to fertilizer ordinances
setting stricter standards of application. Language removing
the local ordinance preemption was adopted to HB 457 and
passed the House last week.
Commissioner Fiala also discussed the importance of funding
the state libraries through the State Aid to Libraries program to
keep libraries operating normal business hours as a resource
for Collier residents.
· Senator Mike Bennett 3 p.m.
Provided update on the reform legislation to the Consultants
Competitive Negotiation Act (CCNA) legislation that he
sponsored (SB 276). Being on the county's list of 2011 State
Legislative Priorities, the CCNA reform provisions aligned with
the county's interests had been amended out of the Senator's
proposed legislation but other vehicles were being considered
at that time. The Senator indicated the lack of support from
other organization outside Collier County which made it difficult
to move forward with the bill. We discussed a strategy to move
the issue forward by other means which Senator Bennett found
acceptable. The opportunity to implement that strategy is tied
to the budget which has not begun conference as of yet.
March 24
· Office of Chief Financial Officer - 8:15 a.m.
CFO Jeff Atwater was out of town but his Legislative Director
and Counsel Ashley Mayer met with us to discuss Property
Insurance and the sinkhole situation in Florida causing
enormous insurance claims. Fraud was also discussed. In
addition, she mentioned that there was $700 million in claims
for Hurricane Wilma in 201 O! Re Citizens Insurance, she said
88 01<> of us are subsidizing 12 % of those in the State of Florida.
· Representative Costello - 9:30 a.m.

The House sponsor of the CCNA issue (HB 135),
Representative Costello and I discussed the proposed
legislation and I relayed to him the discussion we had with Sen.
