proposed conditions that the County requested and the extra steps the E
property owners wanted to do in order to be a good neighbor with both sides ci
of the residential streets abutting the existing Marina. The additional c
landscaping above and beyond the County's requirements to buffer the
13
marina and to add parking on the side of the building to assist with the lack a
of parking in the area. The residents that attended expressed they do not want
parking added to the sides of the building because of the traffic issues it
would cause on the residential streets. The owners of the marina said they
would take that out of their SDP, the parking was not required, and it was an
added cost. They had no issues with adding parking spots, they thought it
would help the district but if the residents do not want parking, they would
remove it from the plan. The board members expressed the residents'
concerns with the owners of the Marina and asked if they would be willing to
assist anytime if any other issues arrive in the future to ensure they stay in
compliance with the SDP if they agreed to support the changes. Mr. Rich
Yovanovitch represents the owner and the project assured if the owners were
not in compliance Code Enforcement would step in and take measures to
ensure compliance, but the owners have been very willing to help the
neighbors any way they can as often as possible. After a lot of discussion and
questions by the board, Steve Main made a motion to approve the project
with stipulations as it pertains to the deviations, 1. The owner will not allow
boats to dock that exceeds the edge of the dock and protrude into the back of
their neighboring properties property 2. Landscaping that was removed will
be replaced to buffer some of the noise issues and follow the conditions for
approval 3. The owners will not use APZ parking for storage or for working
on boats 4. Work with neighboring property owners when issues occur.5. No
parking on the sides of the building. Steve Rigsbee seconded the motion. 5-3
motion passes.

or farmers markets or other uses. Amanda Jaron made a request to use the site
for an art market as noted in the attached. Ms. Forester did share with her the
draft rental agreement but has not gotten any revisions. Ms. Forester noted
that Ms. Jaron was not moving forward at this time with her request due to the
timing with season ending in a few months. Ms. Forester requested that the
Board review the agreement for future requests and asked for a motion to
approve the template. Al Schantzen made a motion to approve, second by
Kathi Kilburn approved unanimously.
d. Gateway Triangle Master Plan -Ms. Forester noted the neighborhood will be
holding a neighborhood watch meeting on March 15 at 6pm at 2664 Francis

church. Road Maintenance, Stormwater, 311 and the Sheriff's Office will be
attending. The staff will set up a date for a neighborhood cleanup and let them
know at their neighborhood meeting to see if that day works for them. Ms.
Beatty asked if staff could invite someone from Tree of Life Church, St.
Matthews House, and the other not for profit organizations. Ms. Forester
recommended staff just focus on stormwater and maintenance and not have the
other agencies at this time. Staff would like to sit down first with the agencies
and discuss the format of the meeting since this is a contentious subject.
e. Scattered Lots- Extension Request — Ms. Forester noted an update on the
scattered lots, the developer has exhausted all of their administrative requests
for extension. The County Attorney's Office has advised per the agreement
that any further extensions would need Board of County Commissioners
approval. Ms. Forester is requesting a motion to approve the extension request

VIII. Joint Proiects/Priorities: 2023/2024

County Attorneys response about lowering the speed limits within a
CRA District and their Authority. He determined the CRA does not
have the authority to lower speed limits on county roads. They can

request the Board of County Commissioners to consider it. Jeff Burton,
with the Florida Redevelopment Association agreed with the County
Attorney.
ii. Speeding Study —Ms. Scott introduced Dan Hall from the County
Transportation Division to recap his speed study analysis completed in
2019 and how he determined Bayshore Drive did not meet the
requirements to be lowered less than 35 miles per hour. However, he
did offer to do another updated speed study if the board is asking since
it was done a couple of years back. After some discussion the board
requested an update at areas where they travel the fastest and not in the
same areas as last time. Staff will find the appropriate locations to lay
the speed strips down.
b. Access Management — Ms. Forester noted the joint projects that the MSTU
and CRA are both working on. The County staff is probably not going to
support reducing the lanes because of the volume of the traffic. Final review
and proposed conceptual plans will be brought back in May after County staff
completes their review.
c. North Bayshore Enhancement Project- Ms. Scott noted that this project is
tied into access management to see if any medians were going to change or
any other recommendation that may affect upgrading the landscaping and
irrigation. Sam Saad, Jr. asked why there are issues with water on the street?
Ms. Scott explained that we do not pay for the reuse water, we are last on the
run to get water after Windstar Golf Course which uses the bulk of the water
available. There is no water or pressure left by the time it is available for the
MSTU to run all of the medians on Bayshore Drive. We currently pay the City
of Naples for irrigation water on Thomasson Drive. It is very expensive, but
we do not have any issues with getting sufficient water. Kristin Hood asked
about using plants that are very low maintenance and do not require a lot of
water Ms. Scott agreed and noted her work with the Naples Botanical Garden.
However, you still need water when you first plant to get them established.
The water issue is something the boards need to look at when we do the
enhancement project on Bayshore.
d. South Bayshore Enhancement Project — On Hold
e. Organic Product/Fertilizer Pilot Project- Ms. Scott noted the pilot project
will be going before the BCC in April, more to come on that.
f. Public Art Subcommittee-Banners/Christmas- Ms. Scott noted that she will
have her first Public Art Subcommittee on April 6 5pm-6pm, and the intent
behind the meeting will be to solicit artists to create a design for the holiday
banners, work with the Public Art Committee to assist with the selection
process and to determine what processes should be used before soliciting
calling all artists.
g. Christmas Decorations Scope- Ms. Scott attached the scope for the boards to
review and provide input because this will be a 3 year, with 2 additional one
year extension and since we are combining our solicitation with the Immokalee
CRA and Pelican Bay staff thinks we would get a better price. The boards

discussed including language to decorate the Gateway Triangle area this year
and split costs. Steve Rigsbee made a motion to share costs and include
Gateway Triangle area, second by Karen Beatty passed unanimously. Sandra
Arafet made a motion to share costs with the CRA within the MSTU Boundary
area, second by Susan Crum passed unanimously.
h. Continued Maintenance- Ms. Scott had noted some of the complaints from
residents requesting additional trash cans on the street, some doggy bags
stations added throughout the area, and additional maintenance to pick up all
the trash and debris that is along the right of way areas. Ms. Scott has the
landscaper working an additional day as it is and he can't keep up with all the
trash being thrown on the ground. Steve Rigsbee noted the issues the City of
Naples has on the beach with their cigarette butt stations and what a mess it
causes when you add something like that so keep that in mind. Al Schantzen
suggests working with the property owners to take responsibility.
i. Additional Maintenance- Ms. Forester noted the CRA at their last meeting
voted to hire an additional person to assist Ms. Scott with maintenance on the
street.
j. Security- Ms. Forester noted hiring an off -duty officer on the weekends for
extra patrols and security on the street but right now staff will reach out to the
sheriff's office to see how that would work.
k. Parking Lot-MSTU pays for lighting and maintenance.
1. Public Art- Ms. Forester noted the art donation of the Macaw sculpture has
been delayed again. The question has been raised regarding placing this on
public vs. private property. The intent was for the County to accept the art
piece and include it in the County -wide inventory that John Mellecky is
working on.
m. Other- Ms. Forester asked for any other items. No other items were identified.
IX. Staff Report:
a. Priority Project Report — Ms. Forester noted the attachment if anyone had
