of taking an examination if he could establish that he possessed an Occupational
license on the date the Contractors' Licensing Board Ordinance, No. 78-02, went
into effect. Mr. Pickworth stated that it has come to the attention of the
Building Department that a number of affected individuals did not possess these
licenses until after January, 1978, which was the date the original ordinance
was adopted. To solve the problem, continued Ml'. Pickworth. and to meet the
original intent of Ordinance 78~66, an ordinance is being proposed which will
pennit such contractors to be "grandfathered" in if he has an Occupational
License on the effective date of that ordinance. He went on to explain that
the License in question is a very limited license which will pennit the mobile
home park operators to make "hook-ups" in his own parlt, noting that complete
inspections are still required by the Building Department.

BOARD AUTHORIZES REFERENDUM ON APPROVAL OR DISAPPROVAL OF THE NAPLES PARK
LIGHTING MUNICIPAL TAXING DISTRICT TO BE HELD ON FEBRUARY 27. 1979
County Manager C. William Norman recalled that the Board created
by ordinance the Naples Park lighting Municipal Taxing District on September
19, 1978, and that. subsequent to this action, a petition containing 578
signatures was received requesting a referendum vote of property owners to
approve or disapprove the action taken with regard to the lighting district.
As contained in the Executive Summary on the matter dated December 29. 1978,
January 16~ 1979
the referendum must be held soon enough for the results to be available before
the end of March, 1979 in order to prevent delay in the installation of lights
within the district, and a date of February 27, 1979 for subject referendum is
recommended.
Mr. Maurice N. DeGraves, Naples Park resident, requested clarification of
the boundaries for the district, whether or not the Vanderbilt Beach area is
to be included and, if so, would there be an impact on their district. County
Engineer Barksdale noted that the district, as proposed, is that area from
91st Street to 11lth Street, Tamiami Trail westward to Vanderbilt Drive. County
Attorney Pickworth explained that in the event the district is amended to bring
in other areas, a public hearing regarding this would be necessary.
Mr. Perry Kaetzel, Naples Park resident, suggested that it might be simpler
to start over again regarding the formation of a district in view of the fact
that the district might be enlarged to include the Vanderbilt Beach area, and
urged that a referendum be held in order to permit everyone to be affected to
have a voice on the matter.
Following brief discussion, Commissioner Archer moved to accept the staff
recommendation that a special election for purposes of conducting a referendum
on approval or disapproval of the Naples Park Lighting Municipal Taxing District
be authorized for February 27, 1979. The motion was seconded by Commissioner
Wenzel.

mendation as written in the Executive Summary prepared by the staff and indicated
that the Board of Directors of the Naples Park Area Association are willing to
waive the cost for the use of their hall as one of the polling places for the
referendum, and to further reduce the cost for the election, stated that he has
received offers from volunteers who are willing to work at the polls. Regarding
the other costs involved, Mr. Harper stated that no official position has been
taken in this regard. however, he said that it is his personal opinion that since
the voters are County taxpayers, any over-run in costs should be taken care of
by the Contingency Fund.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATOR PROVIDES acc WITH REPORT ON REVIEW OF
VARIOUS SECTIONS OF COUNTY FOR SUFFICIENCY OF EMERGENCY ACCESS AND EVACUATION
ROUTES
Community Development Administrator Neno Spagna advised that a review
of every subdivision in the County has been made and it was found that only
three subdivisions are a major concern with respect to ingress and egress for
evacuation in the event of an emergency. The areas of concern and the status
of possible improvements detailed by Dr. Spagna are as follows:
1. Marco Island - The improvements there will be the four-laning of
S.R. 951 sometime between now and 1985, and the eventual four-
laning of S. R. 92. The problems there, said Dr. Spagna are
ones of funding, together with the direction to be taken once
the residents are off the Island. He said there is nothing that
can be done now other than to work with the people preparing them
and keeping them in a state of readiness.
2. Vanderbilt Beach area - The biggest problem there, sftid Dr. Spagna,
is what will happen once the people reach U.S. 41 with traffic
moving in both directions.
c:,~
3. Golden Gate (3'a~1 - Internal circulation is the major difficulty,
said Dr. Spagna, with only five of the proposed bridges having been
constructed. noting that it is questionable at this date as to
whe~her c:" not tt.e bonds posted are sufficient to cover the remaining
construction of bridges.
Concluding, Dr. Spagna said that at this point in time the best thing that
can be done is to let the people realize that, in the event there is a need
for evacuation of the various areas, that it be done in a cautious, safe and
calm manner, with the Sheriff's Department forces assisting in every way
possible.
During the discussion which followed, City Councilman Wade Schroeder and
Mr. Mike Zewalk both expressed concern over the "bottleneck" now existing in
the Seagate area and the worsening of the problem when the Pelican Bay area
is developed. Also, it was noted by Mr. Barksdale that the developers of Golden
Gate have recognized their obligations to finish constructing whatever bridges
have already been bonded.

to review the sequence of events to date, noting that, although the Board has
adopted the Development Plan, approval of the Plan by the DER and EPA have been
hindered due to the fact that no resolution has been reached on the local level
with the City of Naples. Mr. Smally said that this approval has not been forth-
coming due to the report currently being undertaken by the Collier County Conserva
January 16, 1979
on the water quality in Naples Bay which could result in a new wasteload
allocation figure by EPA which could further delay the program six months
or longer and require costly revisions to the "201" Plan.
Lengthy discussion followed concerning the alternative available such
as the method of disposal of treated waste by deepwell injection, the method
favored by the City of Naples, but which, as pointed out by Mr. Smally, is not
cost-effective and would not be approved by the EPA since the most cost-
effective disposal method must be used to obtain funding.
Mr. Smally concludpd his presentation by stating that if progress is to
be made there must be some meeting of the minds with the City of Naples; or,
another possibility would be to separate the City out of the N201" Plan which
he said would be a complex issue due to the Federal Regulations regarding
duplication of funds between the incorporated and unincorporated areas of the
County.
It was Mr. Berzon's suggestion that the Board accept the report by the
consultants and that since there is a large financial commitment involved, that
no further action be t~ken until the Conservancy's Report has been completed,
reviewed and evaluated, which should be within the next two or three months.
Commissioner Wenzel moved that the subject Status Report be accepted and
that the Chairman schedule further discussion on the matter when additional
information has been received. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Pistor
and carried 4/0 with Commissioner Wimer not present.
STATUS REPORT ON NAPLES AIRPORT LEASE FOR MVI STATION AND SOLID WASTE TRANSFER
FACILITY BY UTILITY DIRECTOR - COUNTY MANAGER TO PURSUE FURTHER NEGOTIATIONS
WITH AIRPORT AUTHORITY AND/OR ACQUISITION OF AN ALTERNATE SITE FOR PROJECT
Utility Director Irving Berzon explained that the Naples' Airport Authority"
position with regard to the leasing of airport property now is that the Authority
has to be a money-making enterprise, self-sustaining, without partiality shown,
and that the rents and fees must be non-discriminatory. Therefore, said Mr. Berzl
the only accommodation to be given to the County will be that they will accept
the County's impr~vements, i.e. new MVI Station building and improvements as well
as Transfer Station facilities, for the rental for only that period of time that
neCK 045 P/,~c 216
~OOK
o 4.5 PA~( 217

it takes to pay these improvements back. It is estimated that the period
involved when the cost of the facilities could be applied towards the rental
would be between sixteen and eighteen years, continued Mr. Berzon. After
that time, he said, the County would pay its share of the rental.
The possibility of the abandonment of the inspection program was discussed
with Mr. Berzon suggesting that the matter of the leas. bl re-evaluated.
Commissioner Archer moved, seconded by Commissioner Pistor, that Mr.
Berzon's suggestion be followed.
Commissioner Wenzel observed that the matter of whether or not the
Utility Director should continue with the solid waste management program as
part of the water/sewer management duties should be discussed in a future
Workshop Session.
Upon call for the question the motion carried 4/0 with Commissioner Wimer
not in attendance.
Commissioner Archer stated that some consideration should be given to
locating the transfer facilities on other than airport ground and the County
Manager was directed to pursue this suggestion as well as the matter of
re-evaluating the lease with the Airport Authority.

REQUEST BY EAST NAPLES FIRE CONTROL DISTRICT FOR Bce.s APPROVAL OF PROPOSED
SPECIAL ACT LEGISLATION TO ANNEX BALANCE OF FIRE DISTRICT NO. 1 - APPROVAL
DENIED FOR PRESENT
January 16, 1979
Mr. James Billman, Chief, East Naples Fire Control District, explained
what is being proposed by the District in their request for the Board's
approval of Special Act Legislation for expansion of the District, referring
to the various colored sections of the map displayed. The request is prompted,
.
said Chief Billman, by a desire to upgrade the service to the annexed areas,
and to provide for completion of long-range plan for the District. He pointed
out the need for decreasing response time in certain areas which he ~aid could
be accomplfshed by relocation of stations and/or construction of new stations
possibly, noting the need for a concrete basis on which to plan.
Discussion followed the presentation by Chief Billman covering such matters
as current millage being levied in the District, possible increase in millage,
impact on other districts, and the like. County Manager Norman observed that
the motivations of tIle East Naples District ar6 high with respect to their
planning needs. however, Mr. Norman said that there is a lack of the kind of
fnformation needed before decisions can be made. He noted that he has been
in contact with the State Fire Marshal's Office and has received confirmation
that the Marshal will be in the County on February 9, 1979 to conduct a meeting
wfth all of the fire depdrtments to discuss the development of a long-range
plan for the whole County.
Following additfonal discussion, Mr. Norman stated that it is his recom-
mendation that the request made by the East Naples Fire Control District be
denied at this time and. as contained in his Executive Summary on the matter
dated January 11, 1979, urged that all County Fire Departments cooperate with
one another and the County staff in wo'rking for the creation and adoption of
a master fire protection plan, as previously mentioned.
Commissioner Archer moved, seconded by Commissioner Pistor and carried
3/1 with Commissioner Wimer not present and Commissioner Brown voting in
opposition, that the request of the East Naples Fire Control District for
Board approval of Special Act Legislation to annex the balance of Fire District
No. 1 be denied for the present.
