This Business Impact Estimate is provided in accordance with section 125.66(3), Florida Statutes. If one or more boxes are checked below, this means the County is of the view that a business impact estimate is not required by state law' for the proposed ordinance, but the County is, nevertheless, providing this Business Impact Estimate as a courtesy and to avoid any procedural issues that could impact the enactment of the proposed ordinance. This Business Impact Estimate may be revised following its initial posting. ❑ The proposed ordinance is required for compliance with Federal or State law or regulation; ❑ The proposed ordinance relates to the issuance or refinancing of debt; The proposed ordinance relates to the adoption of budgets or budget amendments, including revenue sources necessary to fund the budget; ❑ The proposed ordinance is required to implement a contract or an agreement, including, but not limited to, any Federal, State, local, or private grant or other financial assistance accepted by the county government; ❑ The proposed ordinance is an emergency ordinance; ❑ The ordinance relates to procurement; or ❑ The proposed ordinance is enacted to implement the following: a.

Section 633.202, Florida Statutes, relating to the Florida Fire Prevention Code. In accordance with the provisions of controlling law, even notwithstanding the fact that an exemption noted above may apply, the County hereby publishes the following information: 1. Summary of the proposed ordinance (must include a statement of the public purpose, such as serving the public health, safety, morals and welfare): The proposed Ordinance repeals and replaces Collier County Ordinance No. 2022- 31 to remediate a technicality to meet the timing provision outlined in Florida Statute 336.025(1)(a)1, "All impositions and rate changes of the tax shall be levied before October 1, to be effective January 1 of the following year." The proposed Ordinance provides for the reimposition of the Six-Cent Local Option Fuel Tax, which will provide funding through December 31, 2055, for debt service payments related to future transportation-related financing and pay as you go transportation network capital and maintenance consistent with statutory guidelines. 2. An estimate of the direct economic impact of the proposed ordinance on private, for- profit businesses in the County, if any: (a) An estimate of direct compliance costs that businesses may reasonably incur; (b) Any new charge or fee imposed by the proposed ordinance or for which businesses will be financially responsible; and (c) An estimate of the County's regulatory costs, including estimated revenues from any new charges or fees to cover such costs. The Six-Cent Local Option Fuel Tax produces approximately $10.9 million annually. The Board adopted Ordinance No. 89-27 on May 9, 1989, providing for the original imposition of this tax, which will simply be reimposed and extended by the adoption of the proposed Ordinance. The County doesn't anticipate any additional regulatory costs in the reimposition of the Six-Cent Local Option Fuel Tax. 3. Good faith estimate of the number of businesses likely to be impacted by the proposed ordinance: There are approximately 115 retail fuel stations and approximately 19 Marine fuel stations in Collier County. Any business utilizing fuel purchased in Collier County would be impacted by this ordinance. 2 4. Additional information the governing body deems useful (if any): 1 7E On July 12, 2022 the Board adopted Ordinance 2022-31 amending Ordinance No. 2003-35 providing for reimposition of the Six-Cent Local Option Fuel Tax upon its expiration on December 31, 2025, effective January 1, 2026 up to and including December 31, 2055. After careful review from the Florida Department of Revenue that ordinance was deemed unenforceable by the Department due to inconsistent timing with Florida Statute provisions under 336.025(1)(a)1, which provides "All impositions and rate changes of the tax shall be levied before October 1 to be effective January 1 of the following year." To remediate that technicality, the County is adopting a new ordinance in 2025 to meet the timing provision outlined in the Statute and ensure continued collections of the Six-Cent Local Option Fuel Tax. Fuel Station data was provided by the Collier County Solid & Hazardous Waste Management Division. 3 Jennifer Hansen From: Legal Notice Sent: Thursday, February 27, 2025 11:50 AM To: RodriguezWanda; Legal Notice Cc: TeachScott;JohnsonChristopher Subject: RE: legal ad and business impact estimate - 6 cent fuel tax - 3/25/25 BCC Good morning, Your ad request for both the legal ad and business impact estimate will post to the website on 3/5-3/27.

In accordance with the provisions of controlling law, even notwithstanding the fact that an exemption noted above may apply, the County hereby publishes the following information: 1. Summary of the proposed ordinance (must include a statement of the public purpose, such as serving the public health, safety, morals and welfare): The proposed Ordinance repeals and replaces Collier County Ordinance No. 2022- 31 to remediate a technicality to meet the timing provision outlined in Florida Statute 336.025(1)(a)1, "All impositions and rate changes of the tax shall be levied before October 1, to be effective January 1 of the following year." The proposed Ordinance provides for the reimposition of the Six-Cent Local Option Fuel Tax, which will provide funding through December 31, 2055, for debt service payments related to future transportation-related financing and pay as you go transportation network capital and maintenance consistent with statutory guidelines. 2. An estimate of the direct economic impact of the proposed ordinance on private, for- profit businesses in the County, if any: (a) An estimate of direct compliance costs that businesses may reasonably incur; (b) Any new charge or fee imposed by the proposed ordinance or for which businesses will be financially responsible; and (c) An estimate of the County's regulatory costs, including estimated revenues from any new charges or fees to cover such costs. The Six-Cent Local Option Fuel Tax produces approximately $10.9 million annually. The Board adopted Ordinance No. 89-27 on May 9, 1989, providing for the original imposition of this tax, which will simply be reimposed and extended by the adoption of the proposed Ordinance. The County doesn't anticipate any additional regulatory costs in the reimposition of the Six-Cent Local Option Fuel Tax. 3. Good faith estimate of the number of businesses likely to be impacted by the proposed ordinance: There are approximately 115 retail fuel stations and approximately 19 Marine fuel stations in Collier County. Any business utilizing fuel purchased in Collier County would be impacted by this ordinance. 2 4. Additional information the governing body deems useful (if any): On July 12, 2022 the Board adopted Ordinance 2022-31 amending Ordinance No. 2003-35 providing for reimposition of the Six-Cent Local Option Fuel Tax upon its expiration on December 31, 2025, effective January 1, 2026 up to and including December 31, 2055.
