Dear Governor Scott:
On behalf of the Board of Collier County Commissioners, I applaud your efforts regarding the possible
relocation of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange to Southwest Florida. In addition to having low statewide
business taxes, Collier County has one of the lowest ad valorem tax rates in the state as well as an
enviable quality of place. We are supportive of your efforts to foster job creation in the state, especially
in our region. Please let us know how we can be of service to facilitate this relocation effort.
