certificate. Renewals shall be based upon the same standards, as the granting of the original
certificate along with such other factors as may be relevant . The renewal application shall be
accompanied by a $250.00 renewal fee. The renewal certificate may be approved routinely by the
board, upon advice of the administrator, or the board may hold a hearing on same.

is a public necessity for North Collier Fire Control and Rescue District to provide the service and that
all other requirements have been met.

Re: Application to renew Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity
Dear Mr. Ochs:
RECEIVID
Office of the County l,'i:na
Nov I 5 2CIt8
Action
In accordance with Collier County Ordinance 8l-75, please consider this correspondence as our request to
re-apply for the Class 3 Advanced Life Support (ALS) non-transport Certificate of Public Convenience and
Necessity (COPCN) along with a check for the application fee in the amount of $250.00.
The District has continued to provide high quality ALS Non-Transport services and is fully, integrated with
the Medical Director's In-Services training educational curriculum.
The District is also participating in the Collier County Non-Transport Quality Assurance Committee and is
keeping constant open communication with both Dr. Robert Tober, Medical Director and Dr. Doug Lee,
Deputy Medical Director.
The only significant revisions to last year's application is the subsequent change in our elected Board of
Fire Commissioners, (Attachment A) the addition and deletion of some apparatus, (Attachment B) and our
references (Attachment C). Otherwise, our application remains consistent.
I respectfully request the approval of the District's application to renew its COPCN.
In the meantime, if you have any questions regarding this matter, please feel free to contact my office at
your convenience.
Sincerely,
,/L /c<_
James Cunningham
Fire Chief
