Agenda 05/10/2022 Item #16D 8 (Budget Amendment)16.D.8
05/10/2022
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to authorize a Budget Amendment in the amount of $582,273 to recognize the
increase in revenue generated by the new Parks and Recreation fee structure and to increase
General Fund (001) Beach and Water revenues to fund ongoing maintenance and operating costs.
OBJECTIVE: To increase projected revenue and the expense budgets for the General Fund (001) Parks
and Recreation for Beach and Water by the amount of $582,273.
CONSIDERATIONS: On December 14, 2021, Agenda Item 11.13, the Board of County Commissioners
(Board) approved Resolution #2021-263 which amended the Collier County Parks and Recreation
Division Facilities and Outdoor Areas License and Fee Policy. The amendment updated beach parking
fees, boat launch fees, boat launch parking fees, and commercial boat launch permit fees. The new fee
structure went into effect on January 1, 2022.
In the executive summary, it was stated that these increased revenues would be utilized to fund the
ongoing maintenance and preservation of Collier County Parks and Recreation Facilities. Specifically,
these funds (a) provide chemicals for the operation of the pools during the summer months, (b) maintain
highly used field assets via annual and routine chemical treatments, sod replacements, and similar, (c)
allow for timely repair of assets within the parks system identified by staff, commissioners and citizens,
(d) provide temporary labor at the Sun-N-Fun facility and to operate summer camps, and (e) cover
increased operating costs such as water, electricity and banking fees. The parks leadership team has
begun a multi -year process to assess all major assets and plan for their maintenance and replacement on
a scheduled basis. As plans are developed, they will be brought forward to the Board via budget
planning or regular Board meetings to provide a transparent road map, including financial requirements.
Beach and Water is the largest fee based revenue source within Parks and Recreation; FY 2022 revenues
have already exceeded the budget revenue forecast for the first six months of the fiscal year by $582,273.
Furthermore the second largest revenue source (aquatic facilities) is expected to meet revenue targets; all
aquatic revenue -generating facilities are expected to be open no later than June 1st and remain open for
the entirety of the peak season. A Budget Amendment is required to recognize revenue generated by the
fee policy amendment and increase expenditure funding to support the cost for essential operations for
the remainder of FY 2022.
FISCAL IMPACT: A Budget Amendment is required to increase revenue for Beach and Water -
Parking Fees (001-156363) by $582,273; increase expenses for Beach and Water - Bank Fees (001-
156363) by $50,000 to fund increased revenue collection costs; and increase Parks Maintenance (001-
156338) by $532,273 to support essential operations for Collier County Parks.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no Growth Management impact related to this item.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed by the County Attorney, raises no legal
issues and requires majority vote for approval. -JAK
RECOMMENDATION: To authorize a budget amendment in the amount of $582,273 to increase
General Fund (001) Beach and Water revenues while providing for an equivalent increase of operating
expenditures.
