Each of the members on the Sub-Committee would meet with their individual areas. Mr. Sorey stated the City of Naples was comfortable with what was put together and did not need a meeting. · Mr. Sullivan reported he and Gary McAlpin had a meeting with Marco Island residents in which there was a large turn out. (July 26th) The City of Marco staff & other Chairman in attendance were: Bill Moss/City Manager, Nancy RitchielEnvironmental Specialist, City Financial Director, City Public Works Director, Chairman of the Marco Beach Committee, Vice Chairman of the Marco Waterways Committee, and the Representative from Marco Island Yacht Club. · Was a very Productive and helpful meeting. · After much discussion it was agreed they would extend the Capri Pass further down and modify markings on the channel. · Caxambas Pass - agreed to extension · City of Marco - knowing it wasn't part ofCAC - asked if they could look at a pump-out station at Caxambas Park at the boat ramp. (Parks & Rec issue) VII. New Business Gary McAlpin reported on various items: · They haven't met with people at north end of County with Wiggins Pass & Clam Pass because of controversy with the two Passes. · Invited the State from Tallahassee for a series of Workshops so they know what they can and cannot do. Need to know what the State will permit. Will then present the 10-year plan on beaches & inlets. · Interlocal Agreements - agreed not to pursue until meeting with the BCC and pursuing policy - then more detailed information will be given. 2 August 11, 2005 · Need to work out logistics and how involved CAC wants to be in the meetings. · Approx. 3 weeks ago Mr. McAlpin and Mr. Pennington met with the County Manger for input concerning modifications of the Policy and what the BCC will and will not support. The County Manager stated they were in support of the inlet policy with all the passes and inlets with the exception of Big Marco River/Capri Pass area. They did not desire to pursue anything concerning Hideaway Beach. · There was discussion on the differential of Big Marco & Capri Pass. Mr. Sullivan was frustrated with staff in not being kept abreast of the meeting with the County Manager "before" his meeting with the Marco Island public. He was confused about the County Managers input and opposition of omitting Capri Pass. · Heidi had a question concerning the engineering study for Clam Pass. She asked how they could do an engineering study separate from their Sub- Committee. She would like to see an engineering study on Wiggins Pass as it is as controversial as Clam Pass. · Mr. Pennington reminded the Sub-Committee members of their direction being "what is to be funded by Tourist Taxes." Any other items are for discussion with the full Coastal Advisory Committee. · Mr. Sullivan agreed to keep other items of discussion for CAC or possibly another Sub-Committee. X.
