so that we can bring the nominations to the committee before the board meeting in September.

overall. Part of the plan is requesting the current 8 units per acre density bonus to increase to 12;
expand the time periods on the impact fee deferral; Repeal and replace the Local Trust Fund;
streamline applications;Create a Community Land Trust;Among others.
b. Hilary reviewed the county owned properties. There were 16 potential properties,9 were presented
to the BCC,6 were recommended for further research and 2 were recommended to be sent out for
RFI to determine if there was any interest in the market. The Bembridge and Manatee properties
received 10 responses of those interested in building affordable housing. The project was put on hold
by the BCC until specific items were completed. CHS initiated a feasibility study analysis which led to
a joint effort of AHAC and the Parks and Rec Board to review results. There will be a joint meeting
were applicants will be present to give their ideals. Steve,Mary,Litha and Sheryl volunteered to be a
part of the meeting. There will be volunteers from the Parks&Rec Board as well. A full report will be
given to the BCC by the end of the year.
c. Cormac talked about Milano Lakes and their 2015 zoning commitments. The builders agreed to
preferential treatment for essential personnel in 147 of their 296 units, however the units rent at
market rate. Cormac relayed that the quarterly apartment inventory produced by Jason Rummer has
been placed on the CHS website.

6. DISCUSSION ITEMS AND PRESENTATIONS
After reading the discussion in the Naples Daily News regarding the location of East Naples,Joe Schmitt suggested
that we begin to use the names of the community planning districts when we speak about different areas of town.
He stated that this would clarify and simplify the locations we mean. There are a total of 12 planning districts and
some areas would need a combination of districts to encompass major areas.
