UP TO AND INCLUDING DECEMBER 31, 2055, WHICH IS TAXED UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF CHAPTER 206, FLORIDA STATUTES; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICT AND SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR INCLUSION IN THE CODE OF LAWS AND ORDINANCES; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. WHEREAS, the Florida Legislature, in special session in 1993 amended Section 336.025, Florida Statutes, to provide for the levy of an Additional Local Option Fuel Tax on motor fuel; and WHEREAS, on August 3, 1993, pursuant to Section 336.025(1)(b), Florida Statutes, Collier County enacted Ordinance No. 93-48 (also known as Section 126-28 of the Collier County Code of Laws and Ordinances), which provides for the levy of up to five cents ($0.05) of Additional Local Option Fuel Tax upon every gallon of motor fuel sold in Collier County, Florida, and taxed under the provisions of Part I of Chapter 206, Florida Statutes; and WHEREAS, thereafter on June 24, 2003, Collier County extended the expiration date for the levy provided in Ordinance No. 93-48 through and including December 31, 2025, by Ordinance No. 2003-36; and WHEREAS, at the time that the levy was extended through Ordinance No. 2003-36, a re-determination of the method of distribution was made as provided in Section 336.025(4)(a), Florida Statutes, based on the historical transportation expenditures of the County and eligible municipalities, and the method of distribution was re-determined most recently, as required by law, and memorialized in Collier County Resolution Number 2013-63; and WHEREAS, Collier County has identified through its current five-year Transportation Capital Improvement Element ("CIE") plan that there is a projected shortfall in excess of $200 million to undertake needed County transportation road projects; and WHEREAS, Collier County's approved Transportation CIE plan is predicated on bonding available fuel tax revenues; and WHEREAS, the revenues received from reimposing the additional Five Cent Local Option Fuel Tax will provide funding for debt service related to future transportation-related financing, and allow excess funding to be programmed annually for pay as you go transportation [22-MBG-00502/1726448/1] Page I of 3 CAO Underlined text is added;struck through text is deleted. 1 7 c network capital and maintenance projects, all within the definition of "transportation expenditures" needed to meet the requirements of the County's CIE plan; and WHEREAS, delays in undertaking specific roadway improvements outlined in the County's road Transportation CIE would result in increased future road construction expenditures and a decrease in the level of service on County roadways, thereby causing increased congestion; and WHEREAS, it is determined by the Board of County Commissioners that reimposing the levy of the Five Cents Additional Local Option Fuel Tax upon every gallon of motor fuel sold in Collier County upon its expiration is necessary to finance construction of needed transportation facilities, and is necessary to promote the public health, safety, and welfare of the citizens and visitors to Collier County, Florida.
