OBJECTIVE: Staff is requesting that the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) review staff's findings and recommendation regarding the creation of the Horizon Study Oversight Committee. CONSIDERATION: On September 29,2008 the Board was presented the Phase Two Report of the East of County Road 951 Infrastructure and Services Horizon Study. The Phase Two report was the presentation of the preferences and concerned expressed by the public during the 24 month long public participation phase of the Study. At the meeting the BCC delayed any action on the Study, seeking input from the Planning Commission, who heard the Phase Two report on December 9, 2008. The BCC on January 13, 2009, after consideration of the recommendations of the Planning Commission, Horizon Study Public Participation Master Committee and staff, provided direction for the creation of the Horizon Study Oversight Committee. The composition of the Oversight Committee, which will be appointed by the Board of County Commissioners, shall be comprised of residents, property and business owners, civic leaders, and other individuals deemed essential to assist with facilitating public participation within the Study area. The Oversight Committee will address issues related to: I. Prioritizing the position points established within the Collier County East of County Road 951 Infrastructure and Services Horizon Study. 2. Ensuring that the position points and areas of concern expressed by the public are acted upon by general purpose County government in a logical and timely manner. 3. Monitor the annual updating of the Collier Inter-Active Growth Model. 4. Providing for recommendations upon the appropriate and beneficial utilization of the Growth Model as a supplemental planning tool, as well as identify areas for the potential additional areas of application. This Executive Summary is the result of that directive. FISCAL IMPACT: The principal costs associated with the establishment of the Horizon Study Oversight Committee will be those expenses incurred for placing advertisements in the newspaper for committee membership, vacancies and meetings. There will also be cost associated with the Oversight Committee meetings relating to the preparation of meeting summaries through Manpower staffing. These costs will be paid from the Comprehensive Planning Department in the FY08-09 approved budget and subsequent budgets. The Comprehensive Planning Department and other departments and divisions will also provide staff liaison and support as various issues come before the Committee. Agenda Item No. 16A 1 February 24, 2009 Page 2 of 6 Additionally, fiscal impacts may occur from amendments, based upon the moving forward individual position points specified in the Study, to the Growth Management Plan, the Golden Gate Area Master Plan, Immokalee Arca Master Plan, the Rural Lands Stewardship Area, the Rural Fringe, as well as amendments to the Collier County Land Development Code. However, the fiscal impacts of the specific amendments cannot be determined at this time and will be contingent on the extent of the amendments proposed after vetting of the position points indentified within the Study. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: The establishment of this advisory committee and its advancements of the positions points contained in the East of County Road 951 Infrastructure and Services Horizon Study may potentially lead to amendments to the Growth Management Plan, the Golden Gate Area Master Plan, Immokalee Area Master Plan, the Rural Lands Stewardship Area, the Rural Fringe, as well as amendments to the Collier County Land Development Code. Additionally, the position points advanced by the Oversight Committee may impact future policy decisions and development approvals considered by the Board for the Study area.
