Item # 16.B.1
ID# 2025-2750
Executive Summary
Recommendation to approve a request for reimbursement from the City of Naples for FY 23/24 in the amount not to
exceed $515,000 using tourist development tax funds for beach maintenance and Lowdermilk Park parking lot
maintenance, waive any irregularities in the process, and make a finding that this expenditure promotes tourism.
OBJECTIVE: Approve the City of Naples’ request for reimbursement of tourist development tax funds.
CONSIDERATIONS: The City of Naples applies for tourist development tax grants each year through the Tourist
Development Council (TDC). The County approved the TDC Grant Agreement on September 26, 2023 (Item 16B9) and
approved a First Amendment on May 14, 2024 (Item 16B3). The Grant Agreement provides that funding is
reimbursable upon receipt of City invoices subject to review and approval by County Staff and Clerk’s Finance prior to
reimbursement. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the City did not submit the request for reimbursement during the term
of the FY 23-24 Grant Agreement which expired on November 30, 2024. The City performed the work in compliance
with the Grant Agreement during the grant term (FY 23-24) and is seeking reimbursement after the fact. County Staff
supports the City’s request due to the work performed on City beaches and in Lowdermilk Park.
The Grant Agreement awarded $500,000 for Beach Maintenance to reimburse the City for costs associated, including
$300,000 for staff salaries and $200,000 for beach maintenance. The City had requested a reimbursement in the amount
of $185,000 which was reimbursed on February 28, 2025, but did not submit an additional request for reimbursement
for the total amount.
The City was also awarded $200,000 for Lowdermilk Park to reimburse the City for costs associated with parking lot
maintenance in Lowdermilk Park. The parking lot was resurfaced in August of 2024, just before the two hurricanes hit.
The project is complete; however, the City did not timely seek reimbursement due to hurricane recovery efforts and
staff changes.
The Grant Agreement also awarded $2.2 million dollars for the Naples Pier which funds have not been spent or sought
for reimbursement. The City will request that the funds be awarded in FY 2026 due to State and Federal permitting
issues.
County Staff will review and approve the invoices prior to submittal which will not exceed $515,000. Following
approval of this item, the invoices will be submitted to County Finance for payment.
ADVISORY COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS: The Coastal Advisory Committee (CAC) reviewed this
request for reimbursement on August 14, 2025 (5-0), and the Tourist Development Council (TDC) will review this item
on September 16, 2025.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Collier County’s Coastal Zone staff has reviewed and supports the request.
This item is consistent with the Infrastructure and Asset Management element of Collier County’s Strategic Plan by
preparing for the impacts of natural disasters on our critical infrastructure and natural resources.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding in the amount of $515,000 is budgeted for Fiscal Year 2025 within the TDC Beach
Renourishment Fund (1105), The source of funding is the Tourist Development Tax.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: This item is consistent with the Conservation and Coastal Management
Element of the County’s Growth Management Plan
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires majority vote for approval. –

Naples Pier—25 12th Ave South,Naples, Florida
This annual TDC funded project includes labor, material, supplies and equipment
for the upkeep and safety of the pier. The Naples Pier is a public access beach
facility and a tourist attraction and destination. The Naples Pier, a historically
significant structure originally constructed in 1887, serves as a public access
beach facility, as a major tourist attraction and vacation destination. The Naples
Pier captures non-county and local visitors as well as tourist populations from
through-out the region and world.
This year this grant application will be extremely important as we rebuild the
iconic Naples Pier. We have begun the design of the pier with the goal of making
it stronger and more user-friendly. We anticipate this project to be in the tens of
millions, perhaps higher. This grant funding will help to offset a portion of the
costs as we construct the new and improved Naples Pier.

Naples Pier—25 12th Ave South,Naples,Florida
This annual TDC funded project includes maintenance, labor,material, supplies
and equipment for the upkeep and safety of the pier. The Naples Pier is a public
access beach facility and a tourist attraction and destination. The Naples Pier, a
historically significant structure originally constructed in 1887, serves as a public
access beach facility, as a major tourist attraction and vacation destination. The
Naples Pier captures non-county and local visitors as well as tourist populations
from throughout the region and world.
This year this grant application will be extremely important as we rebuild the
iconic Naples Pier. We have begun the design of the pier with the goal of making
it stronger and more user-friendly. We anticipate this project to be in the tens of
millions,perhaps higher. This grant funding will help to offset a portion of the
costs as we construct the new and improved Naples Pier. Moving forward these
funds will also help with the daily maintenance and upkeep of the restrooms,
shelters,picnic tables, signage, and over structure. The Operating Cost for the
Naples Pier is$107,493 for FY24. The estimated rebuild cost is estimated at$20
million. In addition to asking for an increase in the cost of ongoing repair and
maintenance,we respectfully request consideration for the annual amount to be
increased from$200,000 to$400,000 annually and allow the City to seek 5 years
of funding,which is $2.0 million, from which to draw during construction. The
City of Naples would not request funding for the Naples Pier fro t T 1 n''c*^

FY-2029, if approved for this advancement. Over the next couple of years, the
Naples Pier will be under construction and these advanced funds would help us in
the rebuilding. We would like to amend the previous application for$200,000 by
adding the additional $2mil to bring the total request to $2,200,000.
