Agenda 05/27/2025 Item #16K 1 (Waive the residency requirement for Nicolas Fabregas on the Pelican Bay Services Division Board)5/27/2025
Item # 16.K.1
ID# 2025-1790
Executive Summary
Recommendation to waive the residency requirement for Nicolas Fabregas on the Pelican Bay Services Division Board.
OBJECTIVE: To waive the residency requirement for Nicolas Fabregas on the Pelican Bay Services Division Board.
CONSIDERATIONS: Collier County Ordinance No. 2002-27, as amended, created the Pelican Bay Municipal Service
Taxing and Benefit Unit (Unit) and established the Pelican Bay Services Division Board. The Pelican Bay Services
Division Board (Board) consists of nine members representing the residential interests within the Unit, two members
representing the commercial and business interests within the Unit, and one non-voting member as recommended by the
Pelican Bay Foundation. This Board provides input to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) in carrying out the
purposes of the Unit as set forth in the Ordinance, and recommends to the BCC an itemized budget, work programs, and
priorities in accordance with the adopted budget or budget amendments. The Board will exercise decision and control
of the day to day operational affairs of the Unit to the maximum extent allowed by law, unless and except when there is
some overriding governmental reason to do otherwise. Terms are four years for regular members, and one year for the
non-voting Foundation member. A list of the current membership is included in the backup.
Sec. 122-1662. - Composition, nomination and appointment describes the committee membership requirements as
follows:
(a)… two PBSD Board members representative of the commercial/business/other interests shall be residents of and
qualified electors in Collier County.
Nicolas Fabregas, representing the Commercial/Business interests in Pelican Bay, was elected to a four-year term on
March 11, 2025. Earlier this month, Mr. Fabregas moved to Lee County. The seat Mr. Fabregas holds is historically
hard to fill, and although no longer a resident of Collier County, Mr. Fabregas is still employed as the manager of the
Waterside Shops and provides highly desired insight to the business side of Pelican Bay.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: On May 5th, 2025, members of the Pelican Bay Services Division voted to
recommend that Mr. Fabregas be able to continue to serve on the committee, and that residency requirement be waived
for the remainder of his term. A recommendation email is included in the backup.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact associated with this action.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires majority vote for Board
approval. - JAK
RECOMMENDATIONS: That the Board of County Commissioners waives the residency requirement for the
remaining term of Mr. Fabregas, so he may continue to provide his expertise in this role.
