DISCUSSION RE CHAIRMAN WENZEL'S COMMENTS REGARDING AMERICAN AMBULANCE
AND THE COUNTY'S CONTRACT W lTlI SAME
Following Chairman Wenzel's statement that he feels the public
does not think he has done enough, personally, to change the Board's
decision regarding the current contract the County has with American
Ambulance ilnd after saying agd in that the Chairman has no more authority
than thp. other four Co~nissioners, he made the motion that the County
Attorney be instructed to look into the possibility of terminating the
American Ambulance contract on the legal grounds that (1) cp.rtain life
support service was not operating at the time of the signing and (2) certain
vehicles were not approved at the time of the signing. Commissioner Pistor
seconded the motion. At this time, Commissioner Wimer made a motion to
table the motion as stated by Chairman Wenzel, stating that the said
motion w~s out of order and asking that more time be given to the discussion
of the afore-mentioned informat.ion about American Ambulance. Commissioner
Brown asked of both County Attorney Pickworth and Fiscal Officer Hall if
there had been uncovered positive identification of corruption to which
County Attorney Pickworth made no reply and Fiscal Officer Hall answered
in the negative. During the discussion that followed Chairman Wenzel
commcnted 0- Commissioner Wimer's request that the Staff be in5tru~ted
to "look into the whole matter and come back ~ith something positive",
saying that such a request would be "like asking American to investigate
themselves and then give us a wri tten report." Commissioner ArcheI"
seconded the motion made by Commissioner Wimer, to tJble the motion made
by Chairman Wenzel as stated above, and upon roll call the vote was as
follows:
Commissioner Wimer
Commissioner Archer
Commissioner Pi"tor
Commissioner Brown
Chairman Wenzel
Aye

At this time, Chairman Wenzel moved that the County Attorney be
instructed to go into Court to obtain the necessary permission to allow
the County to obtain all the records 0f American Ambulance Company from
the time they fir~t received taxpayers' funds and, additionally, authorize
the staff to advertise for any information from the public which might
help in an investigation. Commissioner Wimer again made a motion to table
the subject of "investigation" as stated in Chairman Wenzel's motion.
Commissioner Brown seconded the motion made by Commissioner Wimer and
upon roll call the vote was as follows:
Commissioner Wimer Aye
Commissiuner Brown Aye
Comnissioner Pistor Nay

Commissioner Archer asked for a five minute recess -
Time: 9:25 A.M. to 9:30 A.M. at which time Deputy Clerk Swindle
was replaced by Deputy Clerk Davioson.
PEAT, HARWICK, MITCHELL, AriD CO. SELECTED AS THE CPA FIRM TO CONDUCT AUDIT
AN~NTRACT CDMPLIANCE REVJEW RE AMERICAN AMBULANCE
Pursuant to a lengthy discussion regarding the County's position
pertaining to the County being able to obtain certain documents a~d records
regarding American Ambulance, Inc., and that corporation'$ financial deal-
ings with certain alleged enterprises and the questionability on the part
of several Commissioners as well as the Clerk regarding the recently publicized
possibility of certajn inequities of these financial records, Commissioner
Wimer stated that he wants the Board to take action at this time on that
part of the Clerk's report regarding an audit and contract compliance
review of American AmbulallcC'.
Upon hearing from County Attorney Pickworth that the County has the
rigllt to see allY financial rerords that involve American Ambulance, Inc.
and any other entity that has had financial tral,sactions with that corpora-
tion, and that the contr~~t compliance review that the Clerk's office is
reco~nending may be directed by the Board to specifically investigate this
aspect of contract compiiance, from Fiscal Officer Hall, as well as Mr. Hall
indicating that at this point in time there has been no request on the County's
part for all of the subject firms records, Commissioner Wimer stated that
he wishes to move that the recommended firm of Peat, Marwick, Mitchell, and
"',...." "',..,.
eoo~ 053 fAGE 98
,t
May 6, 1980
Co. be approved as the CPA fim that is to conduct an audit and contract
compl lance for American Ambulance, Inc. He referred to the recorrrnendation
.",ithin the Executive Summary that is entitled "Selection of Independent
Certified Public Accounting firm fnr the audit and contract compliance
review of American Amb'Jlancc", and read that portion of same sub-titled
"Recorlll1endat ion", as part of the motion.
There was a dicussion regarding the probable availability of certain
records from American Ambulance, during which Mr. Hall indicated that he
sces 110 reason that thc County cannot expect American Ambulance to offer
any nEeded rEcords to the auditors for this particular audit, or for the
contract compl ianr:e review, and if this was to become a problem, then the
auditing firm would so report this to the Board, for BCC consideration
regarding fu;-ti,cr action that may need to be t.aken.
C0n111issioner I3rown seconded the motion to adopt the Staff recommendation
as madc by Commissioller Wimer and Clerk Reagan clarified the point that
certain allegations havc been made regarding other entities having something
to do with American Ambulance and that these other entities are not the
subject of the contract compliance review that the motion mentions, rather,
it \<li 11 be directed tOl<lards Amel-ican Ambulance's records only. He said
that these alleged enterpri~es, such as J-Mac; Coastal Medi-car; and American
Enterprises, are not under the Ilodrd's purvie~l, and there is some question
as ~o the jurisdiction of the l30ard regarding these; howevEr, said Mr.
Reagan, even though the County Attorney has found no proof of the existence
of these alleged enterprises, such as fictitious names, or corporations,
they are around, as described in the newspapers and as shown from the
apparent legitimate permits that are in existence. He said that it is his
opinion that something is "strange" about the entire matter at hand
regording American Ambulance and that if the audit should begin to show this,
thE1, the I3CC should demand, if thcre is any ambulance service run,
managed, or under MI'. Maguire. that a disclosure of this be made. Commis-
sioner Wimer agreed, and stated that this will be the subject of his next
motion.
Upon call for the quest!0n on th~ floor, Chaiman Wenzel stated that the
motion carried, with no opposition.

MilY 6. 1980
CLERK AND CO~NTY ATTORNEY DIRECTED TO OBTAIN INFORMATION REGARDING
FINANCIAL RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN AMERICAN AI1BULANCE AND CERTAIN ALLEGm
ENTERPRISES
Pursuant to a len~thy discussion regarding the availability of
pertinent financially related information according to the Contract with
American Ambulance, Inc., and certain alleged enterprises, during which
County Attorney Pickworth st~ted that if the Board or the Clerk has reason
to believe that public monies have been filtered through any enterprise in
relationship ~Ii th American Ambulance, then the County has the right to see
these records. and if the Clerk finds it a problem getting these records,
then he (the Clerk) can come to him for the legal aid in obtaining them,
Fiscal Officer H~ll stated that the contract reads "financial transactions"
that must be disclosed, and that the contract does not spell out whether
these transactions are expenditures or recefpts. Attorney Pickworth said
that if there have been any financial transactions behleen American Ambulance
and Jny other entity, then the contract covers this; and, that these
transactions must be disclosed.
After Mr. Hall related that he has had a problem with request of this
nature with Mr. Maguire, as recent as two weeks ago, Commissioner Wimer
stated that he is tired of this issue taking his time away from important
issues such a;; the COIJnty Water System, Golden Gate Estates redevelopment;
dnd road improvements in the County, and for once LInd for all, he is in
favor of bringing it all out in the open and clearing up this matter;
therefore, he wants to see that the County finds out if there are any
relationships between the recently publicized alleged enterprises ~nd
American Ambulance, and if a:IY public monies have been filtered between
them. Commissionpr Wimer said that he Goes not know if any of the allegations
are true, however he is in favor of believing that a man is innocent
until prcven guilty.
After a discussion regarding the proper verbage for a motion that would
clear this up and enable it to be put aside, Commissioner Wimer moved that
the County Attorney and the Clerk be directed, by the Board, to work
together to obtai" H,e necessary infurmation on these alleged enterprises
.1nd their financial relationships with American Ambuli\n~:e.
May 6, 1980
Chairman Wenzel asked Corrvnissloner Wimer to include the stipulation
that if they cannot acquire the needed information that they report back
to the Board, /Inri Corrmissioner Wimer declined to amend the motion, stating
that they have received a directive, and if it cannot be carried out,
they will be back. ~lr. Pickworth concurred, llnd said that he and the
Clerk have a good working relationship and that if they need it, they will
enlist his legal aid in going to court for the needed documents from
Mr. Maguire.
Commissioner Brown seconded the motion and requested a roll call vote.
The following is the result of same:
COnlnissioner Wimer: Aye
Commissioner Brown: Aye
Commissioner Pistor: Aye
Commissioner Archer: Aye
Commissioner Wenzel: Aye
Following the vote, which carried unanimously, Commissioner Brown
clarified his position on the subject matter by saying that he is only
concerned with finding the best ambulance service for the people of Collier
County for the cheapest price possible. He said that his purpose is to
ke~p the matLAr from "run1lng away", and that he will continue to fight
for thi,; end.
Co~issioner Wimer clarified his position by stating that he also
wants to go on rscord as being concerned for the best amhulance service
thJt can be outilined for the morley that is supplied; and that regardless
of personalities, he is in favor of clearing the air regarding all the
accusations rcgar'uing American l\mbulance and hopefully, letting the matter
go through the proper channels with no interference from anyone on the Board.
There was a brief discussion regarding whether or not the issue at hand
was "service" or "cost" regarding American Ambulll:"lce, during which
Chairman Wenzel stated in rebuttal to Commissioner Wimer's remarks, that
"service" was never, and is not now, the issue, rather the real issue is
"price", referrin,) to old minutes from the meeting when the subject contract
was awarded.

COUNTY PARTICIPATION IN "SUMMER OF '80 FINE ARTS EXHIBITION" fl,PPROVED;
SEALED BID PROCEDURE WAIvED AND CONTRACT FOR TRANSPORTING ART OBJEr.TS
AWARDED TO ROBERT FLINN MOvING & STORAGE; FISCAL OFFICER DIRECTED TO
PREPARE RELATIVE BUDGET AMENDMENT
County Manager Norman stated that Messrs. Will iam McGowan and
Edwald Verdesca. are present today to bring the 8CC up to date regarding
the "Summer of '80 Fine Arts Exhibition" spor,sored by the Naples Chamber
of COll1merce.
Project coordinator Edward Verde~ca recalled that some three months
ago the ace approved the concept of the art exhibition that the Chamber
of COll1l11crce is sponsoring in cooperation with the City of Naples and the
BCC and he added t.hat the subject project is now in "full force". He
covcred the background of the exhibition; referred to printed brochures; and,
financial aspects of the SUbject project. He also explained what type of
art was to be exhibited and said that Betty Parsons, an art connoisseur
of New York, will be the judge of the show.
After explair.ing that there will be a display of some four or five of
the most significant pieces of sculpture from the show, at the Collier
County Library, Mr. Verdesca said that the BCC has been requested to provide
the transportation of the art objects in the show and advised that due to
the Fact that one of the pieces of scuplture is very large and requires
a special tow truck, the original cost estimate of approximately $5,400
has been increased by some $800 and will now be approximately $6,300, same
being verified by letter of bid pruposal from the Robert Flinn Moving &
Storage Company.

After some discussion regarding the costs of transportation and
the deci3ion of hiring outside personnel to do the moving rather than using
County vehicles and personnel, during which County Manager Norman stated
that the 1 iabil ity tildt the County ~lOuld incur would exceed any financial
savings that the County might seek if County vehicles and pp.rsonnel werc
used rather than a private transport service, Commissi~ner Wimer said he
was in favor of the subject project and feels that it will be beneficial to
all the citizens of the County and is a most worthwhile endeavor.
Commissioner Ilrown moved, seconded by Corrmissioner Wimer and carried
unanimously 5/0, to adopt the staff recommendations which includes approving
the County's participation in the above-referenced program, waiving of formal
hids and awarding the contract to transport the objects of art to Robert
Flinn Moving & Storagc, and having the Fiscal Officer preparc the necessary
budget amendment with the funds for the transportation being transferred

IlCC ACTION OF 12/4/79 REAFFIRMED INCLUDING AUTHORIZATION FOR COST OF
CONVERSION OF ZIPPO MODULAR UNIT AMBULANCE CHASSIS; BID PROCESS WAIVED -
EXPENDITURE APPROVF.D IN THE AMOUNT OF $3,D28.20; FISCAL OFFICER DIRECTED
TO PREPARE RELATIVE IlUDGET AMENDMENT
I
Public Safety Administrator Thomas Hafner explained that he is
request.illg the Board to confirm action taken on 12/4179 regarding the
conversion of the modular ambulance unit, previously leased to Zippo
Ambulance Service, to a new chassis. He requested the confirmation
include authorization for the cost of same conversion, which was not included
in tr.e 12/4/79 Iloard action; the waiving of the bid pro:ess; and the
approval of an expenditure of $3,028.20 for the conversion. He said
that he is also requesting that the Fiscal Officer be directed to prepare
the necessary budget a~endment for this expenditure.
After a brief discussion regarding the conversion process and
~hairrnan Wenzel expressing his feeling that it would be better to have
County be responsible for the future maintenance of ambulance
ve 'les, rather than the vendor, Mr. Hafner explained that the contract
with 'erican Ambulance has a clause within it that was added at
Commiss~oner Archer's request, that specifically indicates that the
vehicles are to be maintained according to the schedule in the owner's
IIhl'Hla 1.

RM-1A ZONING TO REMAIN ON l.OTS 1 THROUGH 10, LOTS 33 THROUGH 36, AND

Community Development Administrator Terry Virta explained that
subsequent to a previous request for a variance to allow the construction
of J duplex on one of the lots in the subject area in Marco Highlands,
on Marco Island, the Board directed the staff to study the area and
determine whether or not the present zoning and land use on lots 1 through
10, lots "I through 36, and lots 40 through 44, in the aforementioned area
is appropriate.
Mr. Virta r'eported that after careful study, the staff has detennined
that the RM-IA zoning that is presently on these subject lots is appropriate
2nd he referred to the various reasons for his determinations as indicated
more fully within the executive summary, dated 4/23/80. He also referred
to the ~wo exhibits within the executive summc.ry and explained the two
drawings to the Board; 1) an existing zoning map; and 2) an existing land
use map. He said that both maps indicate the relationship of the lots to
surrounding lands and verify his findings, therefore, he recommends that the
RM-1A zoning remain on the above-referenced lots in Marco Highlands.
Comnlissioner Wimer moved, seconded by Commissioner Brown and carried
unanimously, to accept staff recommendations that the present zor.ing of
RM-IA remain on the above-referenced lots.

MARCO WATER/SEHER DISTRICT'S Ml\RCO Sn/ER PHASE 1 IMPROVEMENTS AGREEI1ENT
~llTlI DEL TONA U';' I LI TI ES. HiC. - APPROVED FOR EXECUTION SUBJECT TO COUNTY
8TTOl\NEY AND UTILITY DIRECTOR APPROVAL OF nlE LANGUAGE THEREIN
Utility Director Berzon rep?rted that since the time that he prepared
the Executive Summary regardIng the Harco Water/Se"~er District's ~larco
Sewer Phase I Improvements Agreement with Deltona Utilities, In~.. for
sewage treatment servIces, there have been some new developments. He
said that Dcltona has come back with certain changes in the language of
the subject agreement, that is identified withil' the Executive Surrmary in
the form of a draft copy. He stated thQt he did not receive the proposed
changes from Deltona until late Staurday, 140y 3, a~~ that he has met with
Deltona regarding these proposed changes, along with County Attorney
Pickworth, yesterday.
Mr.. Berzon related that at this point 'in time he does not have a
final draft of,the proposp.d agreement and that although the normal pro-
cedure in this case would be to defer any action until such time as he
does have a finalized document, he is requesting that the Board ,consider
the rather unusual circumstances regarding this matter including the
following:
1. A finalized document is presently being prepared by
Ocltona.
2. County Attorney Pickworth must appear in Court re
the bond validation suit for the Marco Sewer System
before this Board meets next week.
3. County Attorney Pickworth ann Utility Director Berzon
concur that it is their recommendation that the Board
nuthorize the Chairman to execute the final agreement
subject to the following:
a) That both Mr'. Berzon and Hr. Pickworth
approve the final language of the filial
Agreement
b) That the final agreement be consistent
with the terms outlined in the draft
copy included in the txecutive Summary.
with the exception of the monthly user
rates for treatment, same being upped to
$.95 or $1.00 as opposed to the $.90 in-
. dicated in the draft copy.
Mr, Berzon also stated that the changes that are to be made
within the finalized Agreement will be of no major consequence, and
. that all the information ~lill be the same, or nearly the same as that
May 6. 1980
which is inrlicate~ in the aforementioned draft copy within the Executive
Surrmary. He said that the major issue which the County is interested
in a~d tr~t will remain the same is the manner in which adjustments are to be
made on a yearly Da$i~: He said that same manner of adjustment is both
v1able and fair to both ~jdes. He said that he and Mr. Pickworth are
suppo~ed to receive the final Agreement some time tomorrow afternoon, and
that they will study the document prior to submission for the Chairman's
signature; and, that all the points covered will be approved by them jointly.
Commissioner Pistor moved to accept the aforementioned staff recommenda-
tion. COITlTlissloner Archer seconded the motion. and Chairman Wenzel asked
if anyone wished to address the subject.
Mr. I.E. Evans, residf'lIt of Marco Island, stated that he strongly
objects to the recommended action on which the Board is about to vote.
lie said that it raises many questions again, that have not been answered
for t.he past two years. He referred to the fact that the people who
will be affected by the proposed agreement have not ha~ any advance notice
of the conditions of this agreement; he specifically addressed the issue of
the proposed $450 charge for connection. He asked what justification this
figure represents. He also asked why people located in different areas on
Marco Island will be paying different user rates; why the $450 charge has not
been applied to all connections on the system, and only to those who will be
affected by the proposed agreement? Mr. Evans stated that he objects t.o the
County being in the middle. specifically, that Deltona will bill the
County, and then the County will bill the users. He said that this negates
the franchise agreement that the County will not be in the sewage transmission
and distribution business. He stated that he thinks the County, by under-
taking this "business vi.!nture" is thereby abrogating their responsibilities
for regulations of rates. charged by ~eltona, which are supposed to be evalu-
ated on a "return on investment basis". He said that. perhaps, he does
not understand the entire situation; however, he does not feel that the Board
should proceed into the subject Agreement without offering the people of
Marco an opportunity to hear all the facts via a public meeting. He said
that he requests this matter be continued until alternatives can be studied,
and a public hearing can be scheduled.
~oo~ 0S3 PAGf151
BOOK 053 rm152.
May 6, 1980
Mr. ~erzon stated that several public infonnation meetings were held
re this matter and that a referendum was held regarding the system also.
M". E'iails stated that the referendum was a straw ballot to show preference
for or against FmHA fin1ncing rather than another form of financial loan.
He said that the installation of sewers has never been addressed through
a refcrendll'l; and that the newspapers have quoted various members of the
Board, and t~r. Berzon, as sayi ng that in any case, the sewers woul d be
installcd, regardless of the results of the referendum. Mr. Berzon said
that he never made that statement.
Regarding referendums, Mr. Berzon brought t~e Board up to date
regarding both the 1972 referendum which established the Sewer District,
for the express purpose of providing sewer services in the area outside of
the Deltona Franchise, this being the first phase of that program, and
also a rcfercndum in March of 1980, regarding the FmHA financing. He said
that the latter referendum was worded in such a way, so as to reflect the
sentiments of the people, and that If it would have failed it would have
been determined as a rejection, on the part of the people in Marco, or the
proposed project. In answer to Corrmissioner Wenzel, Mr. Berzon said that
if the latter rcferendum would have failed, and the project turned down,
then, the Health Dcpartment would have to turn down any new septic tanks
in the areJ beca'lse t';e plan for future sewage facilities would not have
been moving forward.
There was some discussion regarding the $450 fee that Mr. Evans objects
to and Mr. Berzon said that same is justified by Deltona, as representing
what th.:y would have to spend per connection to provide treatment plant
capacity, in order to take in this new area. He said that Ueltona has a
franchise for a certain portion of Marco, and have constructed a plant to
the capacity needed to serve those people within the fi:;nchise area; any
cxpension of this plant in order to accommodate other hook-ups will require
additional cap4tal expenditures on their part; and this fee will compensate
for this expenditure. Regarding the difference in user costs between those
users in the 01;cr;ct and those in the franchise area, Mr. Berzon explained
that although the treatment costs remain the same, the operational cr ts
will differ, thus, different rates rcflcct these costs. lie said that he is
May 6. 1980
agreeing vl1th r~r. Evans regarding the facts tllDt the ra.tes have never been
pinpointed by Del tona. unt1l yesterday's meeting, ' He said that the rates
will be somewhat different than in the draft supplied in the Executive
Summary, but not substantially different to the homeowners. He said that
the probability is that the final figure for a monthly user rate will be
somewhere around the $11 per month; however, the actual rate cannot be
computed until bids are let for the project. because the construction costs
of the force mains and the lift stations are necessary to the computatio~
of the needed revenues through monthly user rates.
After a lengthy discussion regarding rates, revenue, and the need
for the proposed project in order to maintain the ability for further
construction on the island, Co~nissioner Pistor pointed out that the house
that Mr. Evans lives in at this time would not have been allowed to be bu'l1t.
if the subject project were not on the planning board and anticipated
for construction.
Upon call for the question, the motion on the floor carried
ununimously 5/0.

FIRST MONTHLY P/IYMENT UNDER NEW AMERICAN AMBULANCE CONTRACT - APPROVED
fOR PAYMENT
Fiscal Officer Harold Hall explained that he is bringing this
payment to the Doard's attention because it 1s the first time that a
payment to ~erican Anlbula~ce is being made under the new contract, and
dues show the form that will be used for such payments. He also stated
that therc has been a slight decrease in the sub.iect payment; and he
wishes to bring this to the attention of the Commissioners, so that they
will have a full working knowledge of the mechanics that have been worked
out as part of the new pa~,~nt arrangements.
Mr. Hall reported that this payment does meet all the requirements of
the contract in accordance with the County's pre-audit; that a statement
signed by Mr. Hafner stating that the contract has been complied with, and
that the services have been performed arc included in the Clerk's report, as
are the bills from American Ambulance signed by the President, Mr. Maguire.
Mr. Hall said that a motion for special payment is not neccssary, however,
due to thc reasons ~utlined above, he would recommend that a motion be made
authorizing this payment, with the understanding that future monthly pay-
n~nts will be made as part of the routine bills.
Following a brief discussion regarding the subject bill, and the
outcome of the court's jurisdiction regarding the payment of this bill,
Mr. Pickworth clarified the matter oy stating that the Court has not
ordered the payment be rn3de; the court has denied a motion to prohibit
1',e subject [layment.
In answer to Mr. Zewalk, resident of N0rth Naples, Mr. Hafner stated
that it was his determination that Mr. Maguire is in compliance with the
contract regarding the required number of paramedics on the ambulances.
He stated that the State does not specify how many paramedics are to be on
each ambulance, rathp.r i~ states, that the ambulances "will be staffed".
He further stated that the contract specifies that there be five ambulances
in service, an0 that as far as he has been able to tell through spot checks in
the field, and the monthly schedules, all the ambulances have been staffed
with paramedics. Mr. Zewalk questioned the use of overtime on the part of
I BOO< 053 "''' 175
BOO~ 05S ~m: 176

some parilmcdlcs to staff all the ambulances, and Mr. Hafner said that the
question of overtime has nothing to do wlth determining whether or not
the ambulances are stdffed. He said t.hat he has determined that the ambulances
are properly staffed.
Commissioner Archcr moved to pay the first monthly payment to
American Ambl1l3nce under the new contract. Commissioner Wimer seconded
the motion and called for d roll call vote. Mr. Hall called the roll

BUDGET AMENDMENT NO. 80-102 FOR COST OF POSTAGE BY THE TAX COLLECTOR -
APPROVED IN THE AMOUNT OF $9,937
Fiscal Officer Harold Hall explained t~at the subject budget amendment
represents the cost of ~ostage by the Tax Collector's office; that, according
to the relative Statutes, the County is required to pay this cost; and,
that unlike past years, whereby the Tax Collector red~ced the amount of
tax revenue that he collected by the amount used for postage before
fo~'arding said tax revenues to the Fiscal Office, the Tax Collector has
opted to handle the matter in such a way so as to necessitate the subject
budget amendment.
Mr. Hall stated that although this figure r.epresents a large portion
of the contingencies, the postage charges are a liability of the County,
therefore, he ,'('commends that the Board approve the subject budget amendment;
the alternative would be for the County Attorney to approach the Tax
Collector and begin to try to find a more appropriate solution.
Convnissioner Wimer moved, seco, led by Commissioner Brown and carried
4/1, Conmiss10ner Archer opposed, that Budget Amendment 80-102 be adopted.

FISHER, JOHNSON, ALLEN & [lURKE, INC. AND SO'UTHEASTERN MONICIPAI. 1l0NDS, INC.
TO BE CONTACTEn BY FISCAL OFFICER RE FINANCIAL CONSULTANT SERVICES PROPOSAL
REGARDING ROAD CDNSTRUCTION BOND ISSUE FUNDED BY ADDITIONAL ONE CENT FUEL
TAX AND OTHER FUEL TAX
Fiscal Officer Harold Hall explained that he has received two proposals
from financial consultant firms regarding the road construction bond issue
that is to be funded by the additional one cent fuel tax and other fuel
.
tax; one from Tampa, Florida, presently involved in a similar bond issue
in Hillsborough County; and the other, from Orlando, who has had extensive
experience with County bond issues, ard has handled a $7,000,000 gas tax
bond issue in Orange County.
He said that the former firm, II. G. Nix, has offered a ',erbal proposal;
and the latter firm, Leedy, Wheeler and Alleman, has submitted a written
proposal, same being part of the Clerk's report. Mr. Hall stated that
both proposals were similar; both firms are well qualified; however, Leedy,
Wheeler and Alleman appear to be able to undertake the proposed bond issue
for Collier County more quickly than the firm of H. G. Nix.
Mr. Hall stnted that he is recommending the engagement of Leedy,
Wheeler, and Alleman, at the cost of $26,OOD, ir, order to facilitate the
initiation of the necessary work as soon as possible.
Commissioner Wimer asked Mr. Hall if he has contacted the two financial
consult~nt firms that have been working on the Willoughby Acres project,
Fi~her, Johnson, Allen & [lurke, Inc. and Southeastern Municipal BonQs, Inc.
He said t:'at he is very pleased with the work completed for the County, by
these two firm~ and he said that it is his wish that they be contacted.
Mr. Hall said that he has not talked with these two firms; he has
Lontacted only firms that he had immediate information on, that were
workin~ or had worked on specifically the gasoline gas tax revenue bonds,
and that have the kind of knowledge that will enable them to move quickly
and develop the financial statements for the County in order to move
forward into the kinds of information that is needed for this type of
project. Mr. Hall said that their name was not mentioned at the :lp~ l~at
he was preparing a list of firms with specific experien~e in road tax
revenue bonds.

Conlnissioner Wimer said that he wants them contacted and asked if
they have expcrience in this type of work and if they would be interested
in this project. He moved that the Fiscal Officer contact Fisher,
Johnson, Allen & Burke, and Southeastern Municipal Bond, Inc., and that
thc Fiscal Officcr ask them if they would like to submit a proposal for the
financial consulting services for the road construction bond issue funded
by the additional one ce~t fuel tax and other fuel tax. Commissioner

AMERICAN APPP~ISAL COMPANY TO CONDUCT PHYSICAL INVENTORY OF COUNTY BUILDINGS
& EQUIPMENT; PROVIDE COMPUTERIZED INvENTORY LIST OF ALL EQUIPMENT INCLUDING
APPRAISED VALUES FOR INSURANCE PURPOSES
FisCJl Officcr Harold Hall explained that he is presenUng a recommenda-
tion for the engagement of American Appraisal Company to conduct a physical
inventory of all buildings und equipment belonging to the County. He said
that they will also use their computer based system to produce an updated
equipment inventory list which will include the appraised value for
insurances purposes.
Mr. Hall said that he has received recommendations for several years,
to acquire an accurate appraisal of buildings and contents for insurance
purposes; that in the case of a major loss, the County would have problems
due to the ldck of complete information needed for proper claims. He also
said th~t between now and October 1, 19BO, the County must have a complete
in,entory of all contents. (fixed assets).
Mr. Hall explained that the County hilS been working towards the.
development of a computer based system for equipment inventory records,
both for insurance purposes and management information; this has not
progressed on the anticipated schedule that he had hoped for; and, the
cost of this type of a computer based program for inventory will cost
the County approximately between $19,600 to $27,400. He said that this figure
represents the cost if the County were to do all the work ":(, hOl'se" with
May 6, 1980
additional part-time help; and, that between $10,000 to'$12,OOO will be
used for the insurance purposes that has been recoirmended,
~'r. Hall said that the proposal from American Appraisal Company is
for completing the entir~ package as indicated earlier at a cost of $25,000;
and that this is to be completed by October I, 1980. Mr. Hall referred to
the proposal as one for a "turn-key" job in that the v~ndor will furnish
everything.
Mr. Hall said that the cost of the subject inventory and sub-
sequent reports was not budgeted; at the time of budgeting the County
had not considered the completion of an appraisal for insurance Durposes;'
and that at the time, the County had been bringing in part-time people
. during the summer Iilonths to complete the physical inventory and this was not
done la$t year.
Mr. Hall reempha:;izerj the fact that there is a need, at this time for a
very thorough and extensive physical inventory; and, in his opinion, this
is the quickest, most direct means of approach to accomplish this task,
even though it is an eXflensive one. He said that he is recorrrnending that
the Board approve the engagement of American Appraisal Company for this task,
pointing out that the County does not have the staff available to do this
work; additional personnel would have to be hired on a part-time basis; and that
the cost will be close to the same either way, with American Appraisal Company
having the experience to ~omplete the needed work.
Commissioner Bt'own moved, seconded by Commisioner Pistor and carried
5/0, that Mr. Hall's recommendation De adopted and the firm of American
"fJilraisal Company be engaged to conduct a physical inventory of all
County buildings and equipment and provide the County with a, computerized
inventory 1 ist of all equipment along with the respective appraised value
for insurance purposes.
Commissioner Wenzel stated that he reluctantly voted for the subject
engagement; that he figures that the County has probably paid out some
$i00,000 in salary to someone who was supposed tc ~0 all that work.

REQUEST FROM TOBY CARROLL, REPRESENTING OEVELOPERS OF BAYBERRY PATIO HOMES,
INC., fOR ACCEPTANCE AND APPROVAL OF CERTAIN FACILITIES IN SAME DEVELOP-
MENT - CONTINUED TO AFTERNOON SESSION
Attorncy Toby Carroll, representing the developers of Bayberry Sub-
division, known as Bayberry Patio Homes, Inc., requested that the Board
approve and accept a certain street, along with water and sewer facilities
within said subdivision.
Mr. Carroll claimcd to havc forwarded all the nceded information,
papcrs, documents, ctc. that the County has reque3ted, for final acceptance
by the County in order that the developer can proceed with the acquiring of
the C.O.' s (Certificates of Occupancy) for some 10 unit~ that are completed.
He said that it is the opinion that all of the provisions of Ordinance
78-10 have been met with the exception of forwarding a certain sewer
facilities lease agreement re insurance; however, he said that it is his
opinion that the subject lease has no bearing on the refusal or approval
of acceptance that he is requesting.
Utility Director Berzon stated that certain requirements that he
has listed in a letter to the developer have not been met as of this date.
The engineer for the developer stated that w.ost of the required documents,
etc. are at hand, in his office, at this time, with the exception of the
sewer lease agreement which is being "held up" in St. Petersburg, where
the other partner is located. The engineer said that he is waiting for it
to arrive, so that he can made a complete submission of all the needed
documents at one time. He s<iid that the engineering and construction has
been complete for some time. Chairman Wenzel ~:ated that as soon as Mr.
Berzon receives the required documents as requested in the letter of
April 25, 1980, then the developer shollld come back. and request the
acceptance.
Mr. Carroll explained that he must have an acceptance in the next
10 days, in order to obtain the mortgage money for the 10 units completed,
tl,f"l>l ~".,.. h,.,,....,., ...,,1ft ,.. t-h..f... r'l1""{nt (n ...~'"(\
''lay 6, 1980
There was a consid~rable amount of discussion, and it became apparent
that therc was a difference of opinion batween the staff and the attorney
for the developer as to what has and what has not been forwarded to the
,
County, and what has and what has not been completed at the site of the
deve10pment. There was also conflicting statements regarding what the
project engineer claims to have not submitted versus what Mr. Carroll
claims was submitted, as well as between what the Utility Director claims
is necessary versus what Mr. Carroll claims is not necessary. Hearing
this confusion, Mr. Berzon explained to the Board that the set of "as-built"
drawings are needed because there were many problems with the engineering that
have been remedipd, and these changes must be certified by an engineer to
facilitate the future accessibility for repair and/or installation of lines.
Rcga~ding the subject lease agreement, Mr. Berzon reminded the Board that
if they were to accept the facilities they have to accept everything as it is
at the time of acceptance, and the lease agreement contains a provision
I'cCJ<lrding the responsibi1ity for liability and insurance concerning the sewer
tre,] tment facil ities; therefore, the absence of this instrument results in
certain ambiguities that he feels need to be cleared up prior to the County
accepting all the responsibilities in question.
After hearing all the conflicting statements, and his client's engineer
stating that all the related documents have not been forwarded to the County,
Mr. Carroll stated that it is not his intention to present something that is not
as it should be, and that he was not aware that all the prerequisites had
not been met; therefore, he asked that in lieu of final acceptance,
perhaps, the Board can approve the temporary hook-ups, and that he will
guarantee the delivery and submission of all the missing documents, etc.
as required by the County staff, within one week.
Upon hearing this offer from Mr. Carrol, Commissioner Archer asked for
clarification regarding what it is that Mr. Carroll wishes the Board to
do. Mr. Ca rro 11 sa i d tha t he is reques t 1 ng the BOi\ rd l;: authori ze the
C.O. 's on the ten units mentioned earlier. Mr. Berzon said that what is
holuing up the issuance of the C.O. 's i~ the final acceptance of the sewer
lines.

BOOK 053 PACE 194
May 6, 1980
County Attorney Pickworth stated that he wishes it to be made clear,
that while the requirl::cj criteria for acceptance may be available, it has
not been submitted to the County and the engineer for the developer concurred.
Commissioner Archer suggested a recess, for, the purpose of al1o~ling Mr.
Carroll and the County Engineer and County Utll ity Director to meet and
find out exactly what is missing from the submitted material.
*
*
*
RECESS:
Time 11:00 A.M. to 11:08 A.M.
*
*
*
Chairman Wenzel asked Mr. Gerzon the status of the situation and
Mr. Berzon repl ied t/lat the same items that were explained as missing before
recess are still the same. He added that if the Board wishes, and they do
not feel that the County will be placed in ~ny particular jeopardy,
they can authorize the Building Department to issue temporary C.O.'s
for the units that Mr. Carr011 has expressed a desire to be able to have
occupied; he does not recon~mnd that the County accept the lines at this
particular time, but, he does request that the Board also authorize this
mil ttcr to be put on the agenda for next Tuesday, He added that in the
event that all the required documents are submitted to the County by next
Tuesday, then, he will recommend acceptance of the subject lines; and at
that time, the stutl1S of the C.O. 's can be changed from temporary to
permanent.
County Engineer Garksdale stated that he does not think the Board
should issue tpmporilry C.O. 's; he thinks that that is a function of the
staff; and, that he is not sure as of this date, if the Engineering
Department has signed off on all of their requirements nor if the Building
Department has. He said that he thinks that it would be ill-advised for the
Goard to take action at this time, until all of the staff has been heard
from.
Following a discussion regarding whether 0~ not next Tuesday would
be too late for Goard action on the part of the deY~loper, and after
Mr. Carroll saying that it would, Chairman Wenzel asked if Mr. Carroll
could leave, and gather up all the necessary papers, documents, etc. that
he claims to have, and bring them back this afternoon, during the work-
shop session for Goard action.
May 6, 1980
,
Commissioner Archer asked Mr. Barksdale if he knew if the road
in question has been paved, and there was more conflict of opinion between
Mr. Carroll and Hr. Barksdale. Mr. Barksdale stated that it has not;
Mr. Carroll stated that it has.
Commissioner Archer moved that this be continued to next week, as there
are tou IIIdny questions that need to be answered, and that the staff must
be sJtisfied. The ;notion died for lack of a second and Chairman Wenzel

not realize that it would upset anyone by requesting the item regarding
American Ambular,ce be added to the agenda. He said that he gave the item
to Ms. Morgan last Thursday, May 1. 1980, and he does not understand why
the other memoers of the Board were upset; stating that other Commissioiler's
add items to the agenda, as did COTmlissioner Brown, and no one seems to get
upset over that. He said that he feels it was unjustified; however, he
would like to make one recorrl1lendation, that from now on, no Commissioner
will b~ allowed to add anything to the agenda without the approval o~ at
least three mf!lIIbers of the Board. lie said that is the WflY it IJ~~:l to lie

addition to the agenda; and, that the additional item was supposed to be
a statement rc~arding American Ambulance. Con~r.~s~ione:" himer said, "I
jun~ed on you because of your irresponsibla attitude towards this Board."
He said that there is no motion needea, as the suggested method of adding

WORKSHOP TO BE SCHEDULED RE BCC POLICY REGARDING ALTERNATES ON ADVISORY
BOARDS
Administrative Aide to the Board Mary Morgan reported that she has
received a memorandum from William Walters, Chairman of the CAPC, in which
he notes the recent loss of t~:o of the alternates from said board. She
said that the BCe has not received any letters of resignation from the
respective alternate members of the Board, however, in light of the questions
that Mr. Walters has put forth in the memorandum, perhaps, the Board would
1 ike to reconsider their policy of not appointing any further alternates
to advisory boards. She noted that rir. Walters also questions the need to
have members represent a specific district on the CAPe, as thir C]reatly
reduces the chances of an alternate becoming a regular member. She said that
the Chairman of the CAPC is requesting the appointment of two additional
alternates to the subject board.
Following a discussion regarding the need for alternates on this
specific board,.and tl,p ';oard policy ~dopted April 17, 1979 that no new

CONTINUATION OF DISCUSSION RE REQUEST BY ATTORNEY FOR BAYBERRY PATIO
HOMES, INC. (DEFERRED FROH A.M. SESSION) - FURTHER CONTINUED UNTIL
MAY 13, 1980
Mr. Berzon explained that his recommendation during the previous
discussion this date was that, if the other departments' requirements
have been satisfied, the Board could, if it wishes, authorize th~
issuance 0 f t"lllporary Cert i flea tes of Occupancy for the subj ect apart-
ments. He said that there are very minor matters that have to be
taken Cilre of but that "they could live with those" and could accept
connections to the utilities.
Mr. Bilrksdale reported that when Building Permits were issued,
Bayberry Patio Homes, Incorporated entered into an agreement with
American Design and Development, the developer for the Riviera ~olongy
Golf Estates Unit 3, to grant them an access across a road which was not
yet constructed but which would be constructed as part of Unit 3, Pilrt
of that a;reement, he continued called for Bayberry to construct the
rOldwilY to County standards and, upon completion of it, American Design
and Development would dedicate the right-of-way to the County. This roadway,
said Mr. Barksdale, has not been completed, nor has the dedication been
drawn and presented to the Cour.ty. He added that the utilities have been
installed withIn the 60' right-oF-way but they are not within a dedicated
right-of-way at this time, as required.
Public Safety Administrator Hafner reported that he checked with
the Building Department and, as of now, there are three items to be inspected
with regilrd to Building 10, 11 and 13 - namely, Plumbing, Fire Department, and
Engineering. Responding to Chairman Wenzel regarding partial C/O's, Mr.
Hafner said that the State prohibits against issuing temporary C/O's.
Attorney Carroll disagreed, stating that the buildings are complete
and ready for certification, noting that the sewer' has been approved by
the COUrlty, the water has passed the "perc" tests and ready for connection,
and that he ca~not get the ,Certificates becauGe the developer in the area has

May 6, 1980
Commissioner Plstor asked if the se\~ers have been accepted, as
mentioned by Mr. Carroll, with ~lr. Berzon responding in the negative.
Noting that Mr. Hafner has advised that the plumbing has not been "passed",
and, since the roads have not been accepted, Commissioner Pistor said he
could not see ho\~ even temporary permits, if permitted, could be issued.
~lr. Carroll cxplained, in rr.sponse to Commissioner Archer, that the strcet in
front of the buildings has been put in but not accepted by the County for
the reasons that they do not have the last 2" of pavement in, suggesting that
this matter is not a requirement for a Certificate of Occupancy. Mr. Haf~er
pointed out that such requirement is part of the process.
At this point, Commissioner Archer moved that the discussion be tabled
and the matters resolved for future presentation to the Board. Commissioner
Pistor seconded the motion.
Commissioner Wimer inquired if, in the event there is something lacking
such as the plumbing not finished, and the like, or some legal entanglement
with the right-of-way, if the developer could post an additional bond to
make surc that the publ ic interests are protecter:. ~'r. Carroll advised that
any reasonable bond would be agreed to, with Commissioner Brown ooserving
thdt Conlnissloner :,imer's suggesting was a valid one. It was noted by
Commissioner Archer that it is not a matter of money but rather a matter of a
lack of connlunic~tion between the engineers representing the client and Mr.
Carroll - that possibly he is not being told "the whole story", and that the
County's staff is scying that certain items have not been completed that his
engineer has stated have heen.
Mr. Berzon offered the suggestion that the entire matter be placed on
the agenda for nay 13, 1980 and at that time, if everything has been taken
care of, the issue can be settled., Commissioner Archer questioned the
n
need for the Board to become further involved if all of the requirements
have been complied with, whereupon Mr. Berzon said that one issue does have
to be brought to the Board and that is the acceptance of the sewer lines.
Co~nissionp.r Archer pointed out that that is the lease agreement
previously mentioned, another matter being the as-finished drawings. He said
~hat those are "simple matters" and that the permits can be issued prior to
the Hay 13th date, if appropriate.
