ATIORNEYSATLAW' FLORIDA KANSAS NEWYORK MEMORANDUM TO: Board of Commissioners City of Naples Airport Authority FROM: Bond, Schoeneck & King, P.A. Kaplan Kirsch & Rockwell LLP Theodore D. Soliday, Executive Director DATE: September 27,2007 SUBJECT: Legal and Practical Implications ofIntensifYing Compliance with Nighttime Aircraft Operations Limitations at the Naples Municipal Airport I. INTRODUCTION At its Jooe 2007 meeting, the City of Naples Airport Authority (the "Authority") Board of /' Commissioners ("Board") directed its two law firms and Authority staff to set forth the legal ( , issues involved and to identifY options to further limit nighttime operations at the Naples Mooicipal Airport ("Airport" or "APF"). Nighttime operations presently are discouraged and currently constitute approximately two percent (2%) of total operations at APF. This Memorandum identifies and evaluates options available to the Authority to further reduce nighttime operations by promoting greater adherence to the volootary curfew or through new measures. Section III contains background information on the Authority's current efforts to discourage nighttime operations. Section IV examines in detail the main legal requirements and standards that may apply to actions by the Authority to further limit nighttime operations. Specifically, we have examined the potential applicability of the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990, the grant assurances, tort principles, and requirements imposed through the Airport Operating Certificate and State of Florida license. Section V identifies and evaluates specific alternatives, Attached to this Memorandum is a table summarizing efforts by other airport proprietors to discourage nighttime operations. ( 4001 Tamiami Trail North, Suite 250, Naples, FL 34103-3555' Phone: 239-659-3800' Fax: 239-659-3812. www.bsk.com 4 243399.57/2212008 ,---.- -.-. - II. SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS The Authority's past and present efforts to discourage nighttime operations appear to be working. These efforts include but are not limited to the voluntary curfew itself and public notices of its existence, coordination with aircraft owners and operators, limitations on nighttime services, and public education. Many of the nighttime operators have a compelling reason to operate at night, such as Mosquito Control, Collier County Sheriff and emergency medical services. Moreover, nighttime operations by Delta! ASA were part of their providing an important service to the Naples community, and any new commercial airline may have a similar mandate from its passengers. Nevertheless, the Board has signaled an interest in further reducing nighttime operations, particularly of those flights that could occur during the day or evening. There exists a broad array of steps that the Authority could take, each with attendant benefits and risks. We presume that the Authority is risk averse in light of the relatively low level of nighttime operations. For example, we assume that the Authority is not interested at this time in initiating another FAA Part 161 Study to consider a restriction on operations. We thus do not recommend actions to convert the voluntary curfew to a mandatory curfew, such as by attempting to impose fines for nighttime operations. The Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA") has taken a somewhat broad view of ANCA's scope in light of its perception of congressional intent. Therefore, we similarly would not recommend actions, such as closing the General Aviation Terminal or other Airport facilities, that the FAA would consider to be tantamount to a ( restriction on operations. The options considered in detail in this Memorandum include: . Further communication with and education of pilots about the voluntary curfew . Further communication with City and County residents to reduce demand for nighttime flights . Publicizing the identity of nighttime operators and/or their passengers . Restructuring rates and charges to reflect higher operating costs at night . Enhancing the requirement to provide advance notice of nighttime operations . Altering airfield lighting . Further limiting aeronautical services available at night, along with implementing physical limitations on their use Based on our assessment, we submit that the Authority should give serious consideration to increased communications, publishing the names of nighttime operators and/or passengers, and increasing rates and charges to a level that better reflect higher nighttime operating costs. The FAA is unlikely to consider these actions to be subject to ANCA or to declare these actions to be unreasonable or unjustly discriminatory. We recognize that these actions may result in only modest reduction in nighttime operations. ( 5 243399.57/22/2008 -_._-_._~ _u._.__._.__. - We recommend that the Authority explore these options and gauge their efficacy before turning to other options examined herein. We believe that the other options are supportable but present greater risk. III. BACKGROUND In 2000, the Board approved the following amendment to the Rules and Regulations for the Airport: "Voluntary cessation of flight operations by Stage 3 Jet Aircraft from 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. (Revised from Airport Regulation enacted 5-15-96 and proposed amendment OI-OI- 01)." The amendment is found in the Airport Rules and Regulations in Section 5, "Aeronautical Activities," at 5.06 C 2, and became effective on January I, 2001. The "Recommended Jet Arrival & Departure Procedures" prepared by the Authority and distributed to all pilots at the Airport contains the following provision: "The Naples Airport Authority would like to strongly discourage users from operating at the Airport during the Voluntary Curfew from IO:OO p.m. to 7:00 a.m." Noise abatement information is provided on the Airport's website. The curfew is voluntary, and there are no penalties for an aircraft owner or operator who lands or departs during the curfew hours, the Authority has taken a number of steps to discourage ( nighttime operations. Many of the measures focus on informing Airport users and Naples residents about the voluntary curfew. For instance, the Authority distributes flyers about the curfew to its tenants, places signs on the airfield and in the terminals, publishes information on the curfew in Jeppesen flight manuals, provides information at National Business Aviation Association meetings, and publishes information on its website. The Authority has, on at least one occasion, sent a letter to local property owners associations asking them to provide information to their members about the voluntary curfew through their newsletters and resident bulletin boards. These serve to educate the public about the voluntary curfew and may reach pilots and potential passengers on nighttime flights. The Authority undertakes a number of other preventive measures to reduce nighttime operations and its effects: . The Authority publishes recommended arrival and departure routes for those operating during curfew to minimize impacts to noise sensitive areas. . The air traffic control tower at the Airport is only operational from 6:00 a.m. to IO:OO p.m., although the nighttime closure is not necessarily a deterrent to nighttime operations because aircraft can be guided in by regional air traffic controllers. The tower is open during the period between 6:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. . The Authority imposes a surcharge for aircraft to fuel during the hours of the voluntary curfew and only provides fuel for government aircraft and aircraft subject to fractional ownership that are being repositioned to other airports. ( 6 243399.57/2'212008 -- -- "._____h . The Authority requests that operators provide advance notice to the Authority when they will be operating during the voluntary curfew hours; however, this requirement is not published on the Airport's website or in the AirportlFaciIity Directory. The Authority also communicates with aircraft owners and pilots who operate at night to reduce the chances they will continue to do so. For example, aircraft arriving during the voluntary curfew are greeted by an Authority staff member who presents the pilot with information about the voluntary curfew. Staff sends letters to operators of jet aircraft who arrive during curfew and generate a complaint; the letters explain the voluntary curfew and the fact that a complaint was received about that operation. Authority staff calls nighttime operators who fail to adhere to the curfew more than once, even if no complaint was received about that operation, to encourage adherence. Airport staff members do not, however, contact the Collier County Sheriff or the Collier Mosquito Control District when they operate at night, because these entities' flights are presumed to be necessary for public health and safety. Finally, Airport staff members track nighttime operations and compile information about those operations on a monthly chart, which is available to the public upon request. The chart includes the type of aircraft, tail number, the runway used by the aircraft, and the time of the operation. The Authority's Quarterly Noise Reports identify the number and types of operations that occur at night. The current Quarterly Noise Report available on Authority's website is for the period of January 1, 2007 through March 3I, 2007 ("Quarterly Noise Report Number 41"). The Report shows that two percent (2%) of total operations occur at night, but also shows an increase in ( nighttime operations at the Airport during the first quarter compared to the previous year. The Report states: Reported nighttime operations have increased by 18% when compared to the same time last year; even though air carrier operations and general aviation jet traffic has seen a significant reduction of twelve percent (I2%). Single and Multiengine aircraft operations have increased by 47%. Public Service operations represent 18% of the activity occurring at night and have increased fifty-five percent (55%). Nighttime operations accounted for two percent (2%) of the overall operations for the Second Quarter of 2007. Quarterly Noise Report Number 41 at p. 5. Two tables from the Noise Report are presented below. The first is a summary of nighttime operations shown by quarter for the fiscal year and broken down by type of operator. The second shows nighttime operations by percentage of overall operations for five years (2002- 2006). ( 7 243399.57/2212008 --------------- .__.~~,._.__.._---_.

They had 328 nighttime operations in FY 05 and 352 nighttime operations in FY 06. Without Delta's operations, the percentage of jet night operations in FY05 would have been twenty-four percent (24%) of the total nighttime operations and twenty-six percent (26%) of the total in FY 06. Two trends are noteworthy. First, the percentage of operations occurring at night appears to have declined slowly and steadily from a high in 2002. Second, excluding Delta! Atlantic Southeast Airline ("ASA") flights, the percentage of nighttime operations undertaken by jet aircraft has increased only slightly. As stated in the Report and displayed in Table II, nighttime operations include military operations, mosquito control operations, and air ambulance operations. The number also includes the ASA flights to the Airport, which Delta will discontinue on October 1, 2007. ( 8 243399.57J2?J2008 --~_.~_.~_._._...._.__. .- Assuming that this service is not replaced with another nighttime operation, this will reduce the number of nighttime operations by over 300, based on past levels. The nature of Naples' operations makes further reductions challenging. It is undesirable that the Authority reduce nighttime public service flights. Many of the remaining nighttime flights, certainly by jets, are by aircraft fractionally owned and operated pursuant to FAR Part 91 Subpart K. Passengers seek to arrive and depart at times most convenient, including during the night. Because of the structure of fractional ownership, these passengers tend to be less identifiable than the owners and operators of other aircraft. Further, operators of fractionally- owned aircraft have a financial imperative to reposition aircraft to maximize their use, which may lead to two nighttime operations, an arrival and departure. IV. LEGAL REQUIREMENTS AND STANDARDS A. ANCA and Part 161 The Airport Noise and Capacity Act, 49 D.S.C. S 47521 et seq., and its implementing regulations, 14 C.F .R. Part I 6 I, limit the ability of airport sponsors to restrict aircraft operations. The statute and regulations impose onerous requirements that must be satisfied prior to implementing certain types of noise rules. Failure to comply with the requirements can result in termination of eligibility for federal grants or to impose Passenger Facility Charges. 49 D.S.C. S 47526. ( As defined by Part I 6 I: Noise or access restrictions means restrictions (including but not limited to provisions of ordinances and leases) affecting access or noise that affect the operations of Stage 2 or Stage 3 aircraft, such as limits on the noise generated on either a single-event or cumulative basis; a limit, direct or indirect, on the total number of Stage 2 or Stage 3 aircraft operations; a noise budget or noise allocation program that includes Stage 2 or Stage 3 aircraft; a restriction imposing limits on hours of operations; a program of airport-use charges that has the direct or indirect effect of controlling airport noise; and any other limit on Stage 2 or Stage 3 aircraft that has the effect of controlling airport noise. This definition does not include peak-period pricing programs where the objective is to align the number of aircraft operations with airport capacity. 14 C.F.R. S 16L5. The definition does not clearly establish what constitutes a noise or access restriction, particularly because of the references to indirect effects on noise. A mandatory restriction or requirement limiting the operation of Stage 2 or Stage 3 aircraft is subject to ANCA and Part 161. Voluntary recommendations are not subject to ANCA and Part 161. FAA considers both the effect and intent of an airport sponsor's actions. Where an action taken by an airport sponsor appears intended to restrict operations or control noise, the FAA may conclude that the measure is subject to ANCA. The FAA's determination would be given ( deference by a reviewing court. The FAA has an interest in providing only limited guidance on 9 243399.57/22/2008 _..._---_......_.._.._-_._.._~._...._~-----_.,.. - - ,---- this topic in order to preserve its prosecutorial discretion and determine each case in light of its facts. Examples of FAA's treatment of measures proposed and implemented at other airports is instructive. First, the FAA declared that a weight limit implemented by the Omaha Airport Authority ("OAA") was not a noise or access restriction subject to ANCA and Part 161. FAA stated, "There [was] no evidence that the OAA used the change in standards by the FAA as a pretext for imposing an airport noise or access restriction. Since the limitation was not imposed to control noise or limit access, it is not a noise or access restriction within the meaning of ANCA." Letter from C. Rich, FAA Associate Administrator for Airports, to R. Studenny (April 7,I995).]1 Several other opinion or investigatory letters from the FAA on the scope of ANCA and Part 161 addressed thinly veiled attempts by airports to control noise and limit nighttime flights. Where the reasoning given for the rule does not comport with its effect, the FAA will generally find that the rule is a noise or access restriction. For example, the FAA addressed the Albany County Airport's proposed resolution to establish quiet hours between 11 :00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. "to ease an existing noise problem to area residents caused by 'maintenance and/or testing of aircraft engines. '" Letter from 1. DeRose, Manager FAA Airports Division, to H. Goldstock, Operations Coordinator, Albany County Airport (Sept. II, 1992) (emphasis in original). The proposed resolution stated that "no aircraft engine shall be started or operated" during those hours. The FAA stated its concern that the resolution was overbroad if the County's concern was really with maintenance and testing. ( The FAA has also made clear that it will scrutinize operational and procedural mechanisms that operate as noise or access restrictions. In considering a proposal to close the passenger terminal at the Bob Hope Airport (Burbank:, California) at night, the FAA advised that actively barring use of the terminal would turn a voluntary curfew into a mandatory one and would require compliance with Part 161. Letter from 1. Garvey, FAA Administrator, to Mayor Murphy (March 24, 2000). The FAA also raised concern, without taking a definitive position, regarding Westchester County's practice to close the parking garage at the Westchester County Airport (New York) to arriving passengers during the hours of the airport's voluntary curfew. Letter from P. Galis, FAA Deputy Associate Administrator for Airports, to A. Spano, County Executive, Westchester I An airport user, Millard Refrigerated Services ("MRS"), also filed a formal complaint against the OAA. See Millard Refrigerated Servs., Inc. v. FAA, 98 F.3d 1361 (D.C. Cir. 1996). MRS "made a number of charges against the OAA in connection with the OAA's decision to bar heavy aircraft:, including MRS's corporate jet, from using Millard Airport, located outside Omaha." Millard, 98 F.3d at 1361. The FAA dismissed MRS's complaint, and the D.C. Circuit considered MRS's claim that the FAA should have interpreted ANCA and Part 161 to apply to the OAA's decision "because it constitutes a restriction on airport use that affects quiet aircraft:, whether or not the restriction was intended to limit airport noise." Id. MRS argued that ANCA and its implementing regulations must apply to restrictions on stage 3 aircraft: whether direct, indirect, intentional or incidental. Id. at 1363. Rather than opining on this issue, the D.C. Circuit determined that the FAA failed to resolve this issue in ruling on MRS's ( complaint, and it remanded the case to the FAA to resolve the issue. Iii at 1364. FAA did not make any further findings in this case on remand. IO 243399.57/2212008 ~'..'..__"'"--""'.' . --..,.-..-----..-- - County (July 5, 200I). Westchester County abandoned this practice before the FAA issued a formal opinion. Drawing on these examples provides some guidance in determining what actions the FAA may consider to be noise or access restrictions. While it is clear that the passing of resolutions or ordinances ancI/or the inclusion of lease provisions that attempt to limit aircraft operations directly will be viewed as noise or access rules, it is less clear what procedural or operational measures fit within the statute's scope. As stated above, the FAA would probably view closing the terminal or other airport facility during the voluntary curfew as a noise or access restriction requiring compliance with Part 16 I, because although the closure has no effect on aircraft operations, it would make the use of the Naples Airport more difficult for passengers. Additionally, any measure that made use of the Airport so difficult or inconvenient for passengers as to be like the closure of a facility may also be considered a noise or access restriction. Measures that are meant to discourage nighttime operations, but do not actually forbid or impose serious obstacles to such operation, may be permissible. We attempt to make this distinction more concrete as we explore options for discouraging nighttime use below. The Authority's history of conflicts with the FAA may make any actions taken by the Authority particularly suspect and subject to close scrutiny. Simply put, it will be harder for the Authority to take steps relating to the voluntary curfew than other airports without the Authority's history of aggressive noise control and community protection. B. Grant Assurances ( Separate from the FAA's consideration of whether an airport's action is subject to ANCA, the FAA may determine that the action runs afoul of the grant assurances as an unreasonable limit on access to the Airport. Specifically, Grant Assurance 22 provides that an airport sponsor "will make the airport available as an airport for public use on reasonable terms and without unjust discrimination to all types, kinds and classes of aeronautical activities, including commercial aeronautical activities offering services to the public at the airport." Grant Assurance 22(a). The FAA has explicitly stated that "[w]hether or not ANCA applies, the airport sponsor has a separate obligation under its AlP grant assurances not to impose a restriction if it is unreasonable or unjustly discriminatory." Letter from D. Bennett, Director of FAA Airport Safety and Standards, to R. Tonseth, Director of Aviation, City of San Jose (Oct. 2, 2003).2 The FAA advised: The FAA uses a three-part test to determine the reasonableness of a proposed new access restriction under the AlP grant assurances, based on the provisions of 14 C.F.R Part ISO and implementing guidance. The FAA reviews a proposed restriction to determine if it addresses an actual noise problem; if the proposed 2 In its letter, the FAA found that the City's proposal to restructure its curfew from a weight-based to a noise-based curfew did not trigger ANCA requirements because the curfew was grandfathered under ANCA and the restructured ordinance did not further reduce or limit aircraft operations. ld. ("When ANCA was passed, it permitted airports to ( implement Stage 2 restrictions that were proposed and Stage 3 restrictions that were in effect before its effective , date. These airport noise and access restrictions are 'grandfathered' under ANCA."). II 243399.57/22/2008 ~"._-~~---'- " '-'-~-""'-'-"--'---'- ... .. ---- noise restriction is reasonably effective in addressing that problem; and if the airport sponsor has used an approach to the problem that fairly balances the local and national interests. ld. Employing this test, the FAA determined it was "reasonable and not unjustly discriminatory, within the meaning of Grant Assurance No. 22, for the City to adopt an alternate noise mitigation rule that achieves the same noise mitigation benefits as the rule replaced." ld. In considering the Authority's Stage 2 ban, the D.C. Circuit found that the FAA retained power to withhold grants, independent of ANCA, when an airport sponsor imposes an unreasonable restriction, City of Naples Airport Authority v. FAA, 409 F.3d 43I,434-35 (D.C. Cir. 2005). The court found that there had to be substantial evidence supporting the agency's ruling that the restriction was unreasonable, which was absent in the case of Naples Stage 2 ban. ld. at 436. Although the FAA historically has employed its three-part test for mandatory restrictions, the test would apply equally to other terms and conditions limiting access to the Airport. It seems doubtful that action taken by the Authority and subjected to this test could survive the first and second prongs: the existence of an actual noise problem and effectiveness in addressing the problem. Through the Stage I and Stage 2 bans, the Authority has eliminated all land uses that are incompatible according to FAA standards and most land uses under local standards. Although nighttime noise may be annoying on an individual basis, further restricting the already limited numbers of nighttime operations is not likely to affect cumulative noise exposure. This would affect the FAA's application of the third prong, the balancing test, since the negative ( effects on access to the Airport, which the FAA values highly, will be measured against the limited noise benefits. We caution that the litigation over the Stage 2 ban may make the FAA less objective in considering actions by the Authority to further limit nighttime operations. C. Tort Liability The State of Florida has waived sovereign immunity for torts for itself and its agencies and subdivisions, including municipalities, and may be liable for torts in the same manner as a private individual. FLA. STAT. ANN. 9 768.28. The Florida Supreme Court has determined that operation of an airport is a proprietary, not a governmental, function, requiring the airport proprietor to take the same care in maintaining its property as anyone else who provides services to the public. Peavey v. City of Miami, 146 Fla. 629, 636-37 (Fla. 194I). In Peavey, the plaintiffs, who were a pilot and an aircraft owner, sued the City of Miami in negligence for personal injuries and damage to the aircraft, alleging that the City carelessly maintained and operated the municipal airport causing injuries to the plaintiffs. ld. at 63 I -32. The court found that in operating an airport, the City was exercising a proprietary function because of the commercial character of the enterprise and the fact that it generates revenue. ld. at 636-37. ( 12 243399.57/22/2008 ---_._-----_.-...._.,---,,~ Accordingly, the City was "required to exercise the same degree of care in the maintenance of its property as is imposed upon others who undertake to render services or furnish accommodations to the public." Id, at 637 (emphasis added). Specifically, the City had the duty "to see that the airport was safe for aircraft and to give proper warning of any danger of which it knew or ought to have known; and the defendant had the 'duty to keep the runways free from obstructions, so far as possible, or to place markers warning pilots of danger.'" Id. at 637-38 (quoting 6 Am. Jur. 11, Aviation, Sec. 14). The courts have looked to FAA regulations and advisory circulars as evidence of the standard of care in the aviation-specific elements of airport operations. See e.g., Abrisch v. United States, 359 F.Supp.2d 1214, 1216 (M.D, Fla. 2004) (court considered the Air Traffic Control Manual as evidence of the standard of care in the industry). Cases from other jurisdictions are also instructive in understanding when airport proprietors may be liable in tort for accidents or incidents. See, e.g., Safeco Ins. Co. of Am. v. City of Watertown, 529 F .Supp. 1220, 1226 (D. S.D, 1981) ("the operator of a public airport has a duty independent of federal statutes and regulations to the pilots using the airport to use reasonable care to keep the airport free from hazards, or at least use reasonable care to warn of hazards not known to the pilots"); Anderson v. Alberto-Culver USA, Inc., 740 N.E.2d 819 (III. App. Ct. 2000) (court looked to an advisory circular, which set forth guidelines for airport design, in determining whether municipal defendants maintained airfield in a reasonably safe condition). These tort principles may become relevant to the extent that the Authority considers reducing ( services at night. For example, reducing the extent of nighttime lighting or making it dependent on automated systems may increase the risk of accident. Similarly, there may be a greater risk of personal injury or property damage if nighttime access to facilities is reduced and fewer (or no) Authority staff are available to help maintain safe conditions. D. Airport Operating Certificate and State of Florida License The Authority also has obligations under its federal Airport Operating Certificate and its state airport license that may be implicated by actions discouraging nighttime operations. For example, the Authority is required to provide airfield lighting pursuant to its obligations as the holder of an Airport Operating Certificate. Each certificate holder must provide and maintain lighting systems for air carrier operations when the airport is open at night, during conditions below visual flight rules (VFR) minimums, or in Alaska, during periods in which a prominent unlighted object cannot be seen from a distance of 3 statute miles or the sun is more than six degrees below the horizon. These lighting systems must be authorized by the Administrator and consist of at least the following: (I) Runway lighting that meets the specifications for takeoff and landing minimums, as authorized by the Administrator, for each runway. (2) One of the following taxiway lighting systems: (i) Centerline lights. (ii) Centerline reflectors. (iii) Edge lights. (iv) Edge reflectors. (3) An airport beacon. (4) Approach lighting that ( meets the specifications for takeoff and landing minimums, as authorized by the 13 243399.57/2212008 -~,-_.__.._._--- _.'".M'.'_" Administrator, for each runway, unless provided and/or maintained by an entity other than the certificate holder. (5) Obstruction marking and lighting, as appropriate, on each object within its authority that has been determined by the FAA to be an obstruction, 14 C.F.R. S 139311 (c). The regulation states that the certificate holder must provide and maintain lighting, but it does not define the term "provide." The FAA has issued an Advisory Circular on radio control equipment, which sets forth the requirements for an "air-to-ground" lighting system. See AC 150/5345-49C. The pilot-controlled system for tlll1ling on the lights on the cross-wind runway seems to "provide" lighting in accordance with FAR Part 139. Although the Authority might consider whether using the air-to-ground lighting system for the entire airfield would be consistent with the obligation under Part 139, the suggestion ofturning the airfield lighting off entirely clearly would violate Part 139. As discussed above, in several cases considering a municipal airport's liability in tort, the courts looked to FAA regulations and advisory circulars as evidence of the standard of care, meaning that the failure to follow the requirement that lighting be provided could be evidence of an airport's failure to maintain its duty of care. This is discussed in greater detail below. Florida also has statutory and administrative law on the registration and licensure of airports. See FLA. STAT ANN. S 330.30; FL. ADMIN CODE ANN. r. 14-60.006. The only specific requirements are removal of natural growth obstructions, relocation of aircraft parking sites beyond runway protective boundaries, and providing aircraft warning lights on structures in ( close proximity to the runway or potential ground hazards. FL. ADMIN CODE ANN. r. 14- 60.006(1)(a). Unlike its federal counterpart, the Florida Code does not require that an airport provide runway lighting. V. IDENTIFICATION AND EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVES In this section, we identify a range of options and discuss their potential legal consequences and potential effectiveness in discouraging nighttime operations. In considering the universe of available options, Kaplan Kirsch surveyed airports around the country and databases of airport restrictions to determine what other airport proprietors are doing to discourage nighttime operations. As an exhibit to this Memorandum, they have included a table which describes what other airport sponsors are doing to discourage nighttime operations. A. Further Communication with Pilots about the Curfew The Authority disseminates information to pilots in an effort to raise awareness about the voluntary curfew and to discourage nighttime operations. The Authority sends out flyers about the curfew to its tenants, places prominent signs on the airfield and in the terminals, publishes information on the curfew in Jeppesen manuals, provides information at National Business Aviation Association meetings, and publishes information on its website. An Airport staff member greets aircraft arriving during curfew hours, and staff members make phone calls and send letters to those who do not conform to the curfew reminding them of the curfew and l informing them of their failure to conform. 14 243399.57/22/2008 . ..-,.---.----.-,.--.- Ibis communication is not subject to FAA scrutiny, and providing information and notice to pilots is a simple and low-risk approach. The intensity of the activities may need to be increased as traffic increases during the high season and the Airport is used by more aircraft under fractional ownership. This will ensure that as many passengers and operators are made aware of the voluntary curfew as possible. However, the Authority is already taking many steps to educate pilots, and it is questionable whether any additional measures would make this pilot- focused educational campaign more effective. B. Further Communication with Naples Residents to Reduce Demand for Nighttime Flights The Authority can also communicate with Naples residents to let the community know it is concerned about nighttime operations and looking for ways to discourage nighttime use. Communication with residents also may further discourage residents who may be using the Airport at night. Over a year ago, the Authority provided various Naples community associations with information about the voluntary curfew to publish in their association newsletters and to place on resident bulletin boards. The Authority could repeat this exercise, and in addition to providing information in written form, have meetings and informational sessions with these groups. Increasing communication and contact with airport users would be time consuming and is of uncertain value in discouraging nighttime use. Nonetheless, it does let the community know that ( the Authority is actively discouraging nighttime operations. This type of action also has the benefit of being visible to the public, but not subject to FAA scrutiny. C. Publicizing the Identity of Nighttime Operators / Passengers The Authority currently tracks operations that occur during the voluntary curfew hours and compiles information about nighttime operations on a monthly chart, which is available to the public upon request. The chart includes the type of aircraft, the tail number, the runway used by the aircraft, and the date and time of the operation. Rather than only providing this information to the public upon request, the Authority could regularly publish this information on its website, in a newspaper or in a newsletter each month. Airport staff already compile this information, meaning that little additional work would be required. If residents were made more aware of this information, it could discourage nighttime use of the Airport and, at least, enhance the perception that the Authority is being open about this issue. The Mercer County Airport in Trenton, New Jersey, currently lists nighttime operators on its website by tail number on a quarterly basis, but the website has not been updated in about a year. The website also provides a link to the FAA's website where the tail number can be used to retrieve other identifying information about the aircraft, including the owner's name and address. However, the tail number link is often oflimited value for fractionally-owned and charter aircraft and aircraft owned by single-purpose holding companies, because there is no clear link to the I passengers who are actually flying into or out of the Airport. 15 243399.57/2212008 ----"_.._---~_...,---_._."_..._-- - To address this issue, the Authority could go a step further and collect information about the passengers on the nighttime flights and publish that information. For example, the Authority could require that passengers arriving and departing during curfew hours provide identification and fill out a form giving identifying information. The Authority could then publish this information online or in print. The Authority could also photograph or collect video of nighttime passenger arrivals and departures. Gathering this information would require extra work for the Airport staff members who work at night and may require the hiring of additional security personnel to collect this information. This type of action may also be unhappily received by passengers and could have negative political consequence for the Authority. It is unclear whether and how effective this measure would be in deterring nighttime use of the Airport. It is possible that some passengers would be sufficiently averse to public attention to avoid nighttime use. Nevertheless, this measure would provide the general public with more evidence that the Authority is doing something new on this issue. It may be one of the most aggressive-looking available measures. In addition to potential staffing and political issues, these actions may draw the FAA's attention. The FAA may consider whether the publication of general information about nighttime operations and specific information about nighttime passengers serves as a noise or access restriction under ANCA and Part 16I. It is doubtful that this measure would be seen as limiting ( nighttime use, as it has no direct impact on the actual operation of aircraft and adds minimal burden for passengers. However, if the FAA infers that the intent of the measure is to discourage nighttime operations, then the FAA would more seriously scrutinize the action. The Authority could also attempt to justify this measure on the basis of security and thereby further distance the action from being within the scope of ANCA. Assuming that the purpose of collecting the information is security, the Authority may be obligated to protect it from disclosure, thus defeating the purpose. Moreover, although neither the FAA nor the Department of Homeland Security has formally found that actions by airport proprietors that go beyond federal security requirements are preempted, this is a theoretical possibility3 Florida has an enhanced protection of an individual's right to privacy. A concern inherent to publishing the identity of nighttime operators and passengers is the right of privacy guaranteed to individuals under the Florida Constitution. Article I, Section 23, provides that: "Every natural person has the right to be at let alone and free from governmental intrusion into his private life except as otherwise provide herein. . ." 3 The Department of Homeland Security recently proposed to require the pilot of any private aircraft arriving in the U.S. from a foreign location or departing the U.S. for a foreign location to transmit to Customs and Border ( Protection an advance electronic transmission of information regarding each individual traveling onboard the aircraft. Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, Secure Flight Program, 72 Fed. Reg. 48356 (Aug. 23, 2007). 16 243399.57/22/2008 "'------.-...-....------ -- To assess whether publishing the identity of nighttime passengers will be considered by the Courts in Florida as an unconstitutional governmental intrusion into such individuals' disclosural privacy rights, the proposed action must be evaluated in terms of the established test set forth by the State Supreme Court. The test to be used in assessing a claim of unconstitutional governmental intrusion into privacy rights under Article 1, Section 23, is as follows: Courts must first determine whether the individual possesses a legitimate expectation of privacy in the information or subject at Issue. If so, then the burden shifts to the State to show that (a) there is a compelling state interest warranting the intrusion into the individual's privacy and (b) the intrusion is accomplished by the least intrusive means possible. Legislation that infringes on the right to privacy will be invalidated unless it can survive the compelling state interest. D. Restructuring Rates and Charges to Reflect Higher Operating Costs at Night Another option for the Authority would be to increase its rates and charges at night on the basis that it is more expensive, per operation, for the Authority to provide services at night. Staffing and running the Airport at night for relatively few Airport users means that the cost per nighttime operation is much higher than the cost per daytime operation. As a result, the Airport could seek to recover some of this cost by charging nighttime operators more to fly in and out at night. The Authority already appears to do this with its fuel surcharge, although we are uncertain of its ( basis. The Authority could consider increasing the fuel surcharge and also increasing other costs at night. Hanscom Field in Bedford, MA, has a "nighttime field use fee" for arrivals and departures between 11 p.m, and 7 a.m. As of July 2007, the nighttime field use charge is $50 for aircraft 12,500 pounds or less and $367 for aircraft over 12,500 pounds. The airport proprietor also requires that "aircraft shall pay double the applicable charge for each nighttime operation in excess of five nighttime operations in a calendar year." Interestingly, the airport sponsor does not charge this fee on the basis that it is more expensive to operate the airport at night but actually advertises the charge as part of its voluntary curfew. We believe that FAA would view the flat fee for nighttime users, which doubles after five uses, as unreasonable and unjustly discriminatory. It seems to be a monetary penalty for nighttime use, but we have not heard that this fee has been challenged under ANCA. Because a penalty for nighttime use would likely be an access restriction, an increase in rates would have to be tightly tied to costs and expenses, not to noise. The challenging issue with this option is actually increasing rates to make them commensurate with the costs of keeping the Airport open at night but also make the rate increase large enough to be effective in discouraging nighttime use. The calculated increase is unlikely to be very large in the context of the total costs associated with operating an aircraft. This is particularly true at an airport like APF where many of the users are unlikely to be deterred by a slight hike in rates and charges. ( Even if this measure could deter some nighttime operators, the downside of using this option is that the Authority could not promote it as a means by which it is discouraging nighttime use. 17 243399.57/22/2008 -----~,-_.-.._'_..,.-..'--'-_.-._--> Promoting this measure as a noise or curfew enhancement measure would subject it to increased scrutiny from FAA. Part I 6 I provides that a noise or access restriction can include n a program of airport-use charges that has the direct or indirect effect of controlling airport noise. n 14 C.FR 9 161.5 (emphasis added). The Authority will, therefore, have to be careful in structuring any change so that it is closely tied to the cost of operating the Airport at night and is in no way linked to noise. Restructuring rates and charges would not be an unreasonable or unjustly discriminatory under the grant assurances so long as it reflects the Authority's true costs to provide services or is otherwise supported. It would be advisable for the Authority to conduct an internal cost-of- service study to examine this issue and support eventual action by the Executive Director or the Board. While this is a tool that should be considered, we are skeptical that it would have a significant effect on nighttime operations and that the Authority would be able to disclaim any connections of the changes to noise. This is particularly the case in light of the very public pursuit of measures to reduce nighttime noise. E. Enhancing the Requirement to Provide Advance Notice of Nighttime Operations The Authority currently asks that operators who use the Airport during curfew hours provide the ( Airport with advance written notice. We understand that few people actually provide the notice. Authority staff indicated that they only receive, on average, one written notice a week. Based on the Quarterly Noise Report, 938 nighttime operations occurred from January I, 2007 to March 31,2007, an average of 72 nighttime operations per week. The very low level of compliance may be because pilots are unaware of this request. The request for written notice is not mentioned on the Airport's web site or in the Airport!Facility Directory. The Authority could more widely publicize its request for advance notice. The Authority could more pointedly ask that pilots call the Noise Abatement Office or fax/email written notice a certain number of hours before they arrive or depart to request permission to operate at night. Airborne Airpark Airport in Wilmington, Ohio, requires four hours prior permission for all aircraft, and Bethel Airport in Bethel, Alaska, requires 24-hour written notice prior to all air carrier operations. These requirements do not seem to be connected to voluntary curfews. The Boca Raton Airport asks that pilots call the Noise Abatement Office when they need to fly during the voluntary curfew hours. Asking pilots for advance notice adds some burden for nighttime operators and also requires pilots to acknowledge to an Airport staff member that they know about the voluntary curfew and plan to disregard it. This could be a deterrent for some operators. Further, the effectiveness is limited insofar as the Authority cannot actually prohibit the flight. Given that the Authority currently asks that pilots provide notice of their intent to operate during curfew hours and receives very little compliance, it is questionable whether a variation on that rule will make a ( significant difference. 18 243399.57/2212008 - - -, It is unlikely that the request for advance notice would be a noise or access restriction lUlder ANCA and Part 161 since notice is vollUltary and permission to operate is never denied. While it may add an extra step to nighttime operations, it does not actually prohibit or limit a pilot's ability to operate during the curfew hours, since there is no consequence for failing to supply notice. The measure is also likely a reasonable one and would not be considered a violation of the Airport's grant assurances. The purpose of the requirement is to alert Airport staff to the number of operations they can expect at night, and asking for advance written notice should be deemed a reasonable means of addressing this legitimate concern. One permutation of this measure is for the Authority to make advance written notice mandatory and impose a fine for violations. This would not be a fine for flying at night, but rather a fine for failing to comply with Airport procedures. Such a surcharge may not be much of a disincentive for operating at night. Pilots could stilI fly at night whether or not they supplied advance notice. In addition to its questionable efficacy, a surcharge may be difficult to implement. The Authority would need to establish the amolUlt of the surcharge, permissible exceptions, means of enforcement, and means for disputing fines and resolving disputes. Keeping track of nighttime operations, as well as which operators supplied notice or fell within an exception, could constitute a significant task. The additional requirements of imposing and collecting a fine from those who failed to comply could be time consmning and costly. In addition to enforcement problems, imposing fines may also draw the attention of the FAA and ( could be viewed as a restriction limiting operations. While the surcharge would be for failing to follow the procedural requirement of supplying notice of a nighttime operation, the FAA may see the fine as a penalty for operating at night and therefore subject to ANCA. The FAA also may question the details of the measure, such as the length of time required between the notice and the operation and whether the measure discriminates against a class or type of operation. The FAA may also find that penalizing someone for failing to supply notice of something that the person is allowed to do is unreasonable. If the Authority chooses to publish information about nighttime operators, it should consider whether to publish the names of the nighttime users who follow the current request for notice or a future mandatory notice requirement. While people who supply notice are still operating during the vollUltary curfew hours, they have followed the rules to some extent. F. Altering Airfield Lighting Although we are unsure of the source, there apparently have been some suggestions that changing the nighttime runway lighting might be another tool to reduce nighttime operations. Currently, RlUlway 5/23 is lit at all times at night. The lights on Runway 14/32 are off at night, but the pilots who use the Airport are able to turn on the runway lights by clicking their microphone switches in given patterns. This practice apparently is widely known and commonly used at smaller airports arolUld the country. It would be possible to change both runways to this ( system, so that the runways lights will generally be off lUlless requested. However, because the 19 243399.57/2212008 . "."--~-".__.- .- pilots are able to turn on the runway lights, having the lights off for most of the night would seem to do little to discourage flights. Turning the runway lights off, but providing pilots with the ability to turn them on, is not likely an access restriction, because it does not limit operations or the hours of operations. Like some of the previous options, it does add extra steps for the pilots using the Airport at night, but it does not prohibit or limit use of the Airport. Turning the runway lights off and having them accessible when needed is probably also acceptable under the requirements of the grant assurances, because the lights are available but resources are not being wasted when not needed. However, limiting the extent of lighting could expose the Airport to tort liability. Even if pilots have the ability to turn the lights on, accidents could still occur that may be linked in some way to the lighting system. One scenario we have heard is, if the runway lights are turned on by a landing pilot and another plane comes in shortly behind that pilot but the lights automatically turn off, there is a potential for an accident for the second pilot. The potential failure of the runway lights to turn on under the pilot-controlled system could also cause an accident and is also a concern with this option. Turning off the lights also implicates Part 139. As described above, 14 CFR 9 139.311 requires that the airport provide lighting. If the pilots have the ability to turn on the lighting, then lighting is probably "provided", as required by Part 139, especially in light of the Advisory Circular on the subject. If the lights were simply turned off without this capability, the Authority would likely be in violation of Part 139, and if an accident occurred, Part 139 may be used to establish ( the standard of care owed by the Airport. See Abrisch v. United States, 359 F.Supp.2d 1214, 1216 (M.D. Fla. 2004); Anderson v. Alberto-Culver USA, Inc., 740 N.E,2d 819 (Ill. App. Ct. 2000). G. Limiting Aeronautical Services Available at Night and Implementing Physical Limitations Various limitations on available services and physical restrictions have been suggested that would make use of the Airport during curfew hours inconvenient and uncomfortable for pilots and passengers, with the hope that these limits will deter night flights. For example, the Authority provides only limited fueling at night and might consider whether to further limit fueling to government aircraft only. The Authority might consider whether to restructure the provision of other services that it performs in a manner to further discourage nighttime operations. In terms of physical limitations, one Commissioner suggested that turn-styles be placed in some locations where persons leave the secured portion of the Airport and their use required at night. It has also been suggested that restrooms in the Airport be closed during the curfew or that certain indoor and outdoor lights be turned off. Other possibilities include limiting use of ground vehicles on the apron during curfew hours or requiring that nighttime users park far away from the terminal and walk a considerable distance to their cars. ( 20 243399.57/22/2008 .'_.___ ~____n'_.'__._" ..n_~ ______ These types of activities are similar to those attempted in Burbank and Westchester, even if less extreme, where the closure of the airport terminal and parking garage at night drew the attention of the FAA. These types of operational measures might be considered by the FAA as attempts to limit access and use of the Airport at night. While the Authority could claim that these measures are needed at night due to security or limited availability of staff and funds to provide services at night, such measures have a significant risk of being viewed as a noise or access restriction, especially if the measures are so inconvenient that they are like closing the facility. Whether or not the measures are subject to ANCA and Part 16I, there is a good chance that the FAA would question the reasonableness of the measures and whether the Authority was complying with its grant assurances. Limiting access or making access difficult could also increase the Authority' s risks of tort liability. The Authority must maintain the Airport with the same degree of care as is imposed on others who undertake to render services or publish accommodations to the public. Peavy v. City of Miami, 146 Fla. 629, 637 (Fla. 1941). It is unlikely that another business could avoid liability in the case of practices that would require its patrons to walk long distances at night with limited light or leave the secured area through turn-styles. The age and medical conditions of many APF passengers also counsels caution. The Authority also has responsibilities under the Americans with Disabilities Act, which requires that the Airport's services, programs, and activities be readily accessible and usable by individuals with disabilities. See 42 D.S.C. S 12I31, et seq. VI. CONCLUSION ( We have attempted herein to formulate a list of available options that is commensurate with the scope of the problem and to define the legal constraints. From among these options, we recommend that the Authority further investigate additional communications to promote adherence to the voluntary curfew, publishing the names of nighttime operators ancl/or passengers, and increasing rates and charges to more closely reflect any increased operating costs at night. While these actions may not dramatically reduce the number of nighttime operations, they may have some effect and signal the Authority's commitment to reducing nighttime operations, without exposing the Authority to significant legal risk. Once these alternatives have been examined, and possibly implemented, the Authority might look further down the list of alternatives to those that present somewhat greater levels of risk in return for greater potential effects on nighttime activity.

Soliday, Executive Director -_..- Sheila A. Dugan, Director of Finance FROM: F. Joseph McMackin III, Esq. Lenore T. Brakefield, Esq. DATE: October 10, 2007 ."-........ RE: Public Records Requests I Records Management I Retention ( Summary We suggest that these are the appropriate criteria for determining whether material in the possession of the City of Naples Airport Authority is a "public record": 1. Was the material prepared in connection with the transaction of official Authority business? The answer to the first criterion will be determined on a case by case basis by the individual sending and/or receiving the information. If the answer is "yes," then the information (regardless of form) is a "public record" and must be retained or preserved in accordance with an approved retention schedule. ( 32 - .. 2. Was the information prepared by the Authority or received by the Authority in i connection with the transaction of official business with the intent of perpetuating, communicating or formalizing knowledge? The answer to the second criterion shall be determined on a case by case basis by the individual sending and/or receiving the information. If the answer is "yes," then the information (regardless of form) is a "public record" and must be retained or preserved in accordance with an approved retention schedule. Once the information has been identified as a "public record" and worthy of retention, it should be forwarded to the Authority for 'compliance with Florida's Records Management Program's (the "Records Program") retention requirements. All duplicates should be destroyed , .,., '--~"'. or deleted. It is also important to note that certain documents identified as "public records" will ( still be exempt from a public records request, if the "public record" qualifies as one of the listed exemptions as defined in the Florida Statutes. Identification of a statutory exemption is the responsibility of the Authority. ANALYSIS Public Records The statutory definition of "public records" includes all documents, papers, letters, maps, books, tapes, photographs, films, sound recordings, data processing software, or other material, regardless of the physical form, characteristics, or means of transmission, made or received pursuant to law or ordinance or in connection with the transaction of official business by any agency. ( 33 -.-- - This definition is limited, however, to information which was prepared with the intent of ( perpetuating, communicating or formalizing knowledge. Information is determined to be a "public record" based on the content, not the form of transmission. The starting point is whether the information was prepared or received by the Authority in connection with official business used to perpetuate, communicate or formalize knowledge. Records Management A closely associated issue is record management and retention. The Florida Department of State has established a records management program which is applicable to all public agencies. The Records Program provides general retention schedules which establish a minimum length of time that a "public record" must be maintained by a government agency. When disposing of records an agency must: a) ensure that the age of the record has exceeded the ( retention requirements (knowledge of the retention periods is the responsibility of the agency); and, b) document the disposition of any public records in its custody. An exception to this rule is that government agencies are not required to document the disposition of records with a retention designation of "retain until obsolete, superseded or administrative value is lost" ("OSA"). Documents that are labeled OSA, are eligible for destruction whenever the document is no longer of use. The Records Program has developed specific requirements for the retention of emaiI. Personal messages, which do not involve official business are not "public records" to begin with and are not subject to the Records Program or any retention schedule. Emails that do involve official business are "public records" and the master or "record" copy should be given to the Authority for retention. Duplicate copies of "public records" should be deleted after a "record" ( copy has been filed with the Authority. The same procedure applies for all documents that have 34 -- been determined to be "public records", after the "record" copy is forwarded to the Authority all ( duplicates should be deleted.

Soliday FROM: F. Joseph McMackin III Lenore T. Brakefield DATE: May 17, 2006 - RE: Agenda and Conduct ofNAA Regular Meetings Florida's Government-in-the-Sunshine-Law1, conunonly referred to as the Sunshine Law; provides a right of access to governmental proceedings at both the state and local" levels. The law is applied to any gathering oftwo or more members subject to the Sunshine ( requirements to discuss some matter which will foreseeably come before the governing board for action. There are three basic requirements ofs.286.011, F.S.: (1) meetings of public boards or commissions must be open to the public; (2) reasonable notice of such meetings must be given; and (3) minutes of the meetings must be taken. Public Participation A recent Attorney General's Opinion and several Florida courts of have recognized the importance of public participation in open meetings. However, the Supreme ( I The infonnation in this Memorandum is taken directly from the Government-in-the-Sunshine Manual. 36 - .._..._~.. - Court has indicated that with regard to certain types of executive meetings, there may not be a right under s. 286.0II, F.S., for members of the public to participate. In Wood v. Marston, 442 So. 2d 934, 94 I (Fla. I 983), the Court noted: This Court recognizes the necessity for the free exchange of ideas in academic forums, without fear of governmental reprisal, to foster deep thought and intellectual growth. . . . We hasten to reassure respondents that nothing in this decision gives the public the right to be more than spectators. Until the matter is clarified, the Attorney General's Office has recognized that when committees are carrying out certain executive, functions which traditionally have been conducted without public input, the public has the right to attend but may not have the opportunity to participate. See, Law and Information Services v. City of Riviera Beach, 670 So. 2d 1014, IOl6 (Fla. 4th DCA 1996), citing Marston for the principle that the public does not ( have a right to speak on all issues prior to resolution of the issue by the board; Homestead- Miami Speedway, LLe. v. City of Miami, 828 So. 2d 4 I I (Fla. 3d DCA 2002) (city did not violate Sunshine Law where there was public participation and debate in some but not all ofthe meetings concerning a proposed contract). Nonetheless, if a committee or board is carrying out legislative responsibilities, the Attorney General's Office has advised that the public should be afforded a meaningful opportunity to participate at each stage of the decision-making process, including workshops. See, Inf. Op. to Thrasher, January 27,1994; and Inf. Op. to Conn, May 19, 1987. Authority to Adopt Reasonable Rules In providing an opportunity for public participation, the Attorney General's Office ( has advised that reasonable rules and policies, which ensure the orderly conduct of a public 37 ----- meeting and which require orderly behavior on the part of those persons attending, may be adopted by a public board. For example, a rule which limits the amount of time an individual may address the board could be adopted provided that the time limit does not unreasonably restrict the public's right of access. Although not directly considering the Sunshine Law, the court in Jones v. Heyman, 888 F.2d 1328, 1333 (1 Ith Cir. 1989), concluded that a mayor'S actions in attempting to confine the speaker to the agenda item in the city commission meeting and having the speaker removed when the speaker appeared to become disruptive constituted a reasonable time, place and manner regulation and did not violate the speaker's First Amendment rights. And see, Rowe v. City of Cocoa, 358 F. 3d 800 (1 I th Cir. 2004) (city council's regulation limiting speech of nonresidents during its meetings is viewpoint-neutral and does not violate the First or Fourteenth Amendment rights of nonresidents). Compare, AGO 04-53 (statute requiring special district I , board to hold "a public hearing at which time qualified electors of the district may appear and be heard" does not prohibit nonqualified electors from participating). Conclusion I) The only mandatory requirements of Government-in-the-Sunshine-Law are that meetings must be open to the public, notice must be given and minutes must be taken. 2) Although public participation is encouraged (especially when carrying out legislative responsibilities), it is not mandatory that the public have the right to speak about each item on every agenda. 3) The City of Naples Airport Authority is within its right to adopt reasonable rules to govern its meetings. Because the Authority seems to have adopted the "Right to Speak" / , 38 .._-------- rules as outlined in Fla. Stat. 720.306 (6) which governs meetings of Homeowners' Associations, the rules wiIllikely be deemed reasonable. This statute requires that all members or parcel owners have the right to speak for at least three (3) minutes on any item, provided that the member or parcel owner submits a written request to speak prior to the meeting.

Jeanne Brooker, Chair Hon. Linda M. Hartman Hon. Jackie Fresenius Hon. Robert D. Geroy Hon. John F. Johnson Frank W. Van Essen, Ph.D., Executive Director Stacy J. Welch FROM: F. Joseph McMackin III, Esq. DATE: August 2, 2007 RE: USE OF DISTRICT FUNDS FOR LOBBYING IN TALLAHASSEE OUESTION: ( May the Collier Mosquito Control District ("CMCD") use funds obtained from local property taxes for the purpose of retaining a lobbyist or lobbying directly to espouse a particular position in a political issue? ANSWER: Article VII, Section I 0, Florida Constitution provides that public funds may only be used for public purposes, unless expressly and specifically authorized by statute. REASONING: The purpose of Article VII, Section IO, Florida Constitution, which prohibits the state, county, municipality, school district, special district or any agency thereof from lending or using its taxing power or credit to aid any corporation association, partnerships or person, is to protect public funds and resources from being exploited in assisting or promoting private ventures when the public would be at most incidentally benefited. See, Bannon v. Port of Palm Beach District, 246 So.2d 737. \ 40 .-,,-----..- There are Attorney General Opinions in which the Attorney General opined that there may be a situation where public ftmds could be used for lobbying. Attorney General Opinion 88-52 addresses the question of whether a Board of County Commissioners may expend county ftmds for lobbying upon a finding of public interest. The conclusion was that upon making the appropriate [mdings that an expenditure of county ftmds for lobbying purposes serves a county purpose and is in the public interest, the Board of County Commissioners may expend county ftmds for lobbying. However, the use of such ftmds must not violate state law or the Florida Constitution and may only be used for lobbying when properly budgeted for such purpose. In Attorney General Opinion 86-87, Brevard County was given permission to spend county ftmds to publicly advertise its position on an issue to be voted on in an upcoming referendum, as long as such action was not restricted by, nor inconsistent with, general or special law and provided that the County Commission, prior to making such expenditures, makes ( legislative [mdings regarding the purpose of the expenditure and the benefits accruing to the county. The expenditure must serve a county purpose. Another Opinion found that municipal ftmds may be used to support or oppose the question of annexation as it is a matter that affects and involves the interest of the municipality and its citizens. AGO 74-227. While these Opinions did not confirm that lobbying was prohibited, the situations where ftmding lobbying was permitted were fact specific and not generalized. Pursuant to Florida law, public ftmds may not be expended by a county, district or other statutory entity for lobbying purposes unless expressly and specifically authorized by statute. Upon review of Chapter 388, Fla. Stat., all state ftmds must be used by CMCD in accordance with a detailed work plan and certified budget approved by both the Department of I 41 ---- -~,--,-_. _.-." -.'---_.._"...-,_.-,--- Agriculture and Consumer Services and the District. Section 388.621, Fla. Stat" lists the permitted uses of state funds by a Mosquito Control District and there is no authorization allowing for public funds to be used for the purposes of lobbying. However, Section 388.161, Fla. Stat., authorizes the Board of Commissioners to do any and all things necessary for the control and elimination of all species of mosquitoes and other arthropods for public health protection, so it may be possible to argue that District lobbying would fall into that category but that would be a stretch. Attorney General Opinion 77-8 found that "'other necessary expenditures' which were part of legislation creating a civic facilities authority, should not be interpreted as permitting expenditure of the Authority's funds for lobbying." A parallel argument could be made for the language contained in Section 388.161, Fla. Stat. There is no direct statutory ( authorization allowing CMCD to use public funds for lobbying; therefore, CMCD would, at the very least, first need to make legislative findings showing the purpose of the expenditure and the benefit to the public in order to use public funds for lobbying.

Joseph McMackin, III DATE: June 16, 2005 RE: Process for Selection of Insurance Agent - Florida law is not detailed regarding the purchase of goods and services by special districts. As was noted in a legal opinion given by a senior attorney of the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs, the only areas that seem to be regulated are the bidding requirements for architectural, engineering and banking services. Fla. Stat. Sections 287.055 and ( 280.01, There are no other statutes which establish procedures for the procurement of services by special districts. However, Collier Mosquito Control District ("CMCD") has established its own policy for selecting an insurance provider in its Commissioner Handbook. Pursuant to policy #2002-02 "Obtaining Insurance Coverages" contained in the CMCD Commissioner Handbook, the following process must be accomplished when selecting a new insurance agent. CMCD must determine the providers likely to respond. Consideration is given to the current provider and then to responses from other companies expressing an interest in providing this service. Next, information should be gathered regarding current coverages. TIris includes: limits ofliability, amount for property coverage (for buildings, use most recent GAB appraisal-insurable reproduction cost) and the desired deductible, CMCD should compile the following: a list of vehicles owned, a list of current drivers with driver's licenses, a list of ( aircraft owned and pilot history forms for all avigation of CMCD aircraft. 43 ---- -- Once the information is collected, it should be provided in identical form to all ! agencies expressing an interest in submitting a proposal. All bidders must provide proposals with identical coverage. It should be clear that alternate quotations for coverages may be offered (in addition) but will not be considered in the comparison of proposals. Agencies wishing to bid will provide blank applications to CMCD, which will be completed in-house. Proposals must be submitted to CMCD on a pre-determined date. Ten copies of the proposal must be submitted by each agency. Once proposals are received, an in-house comparison report will be completed. Time permitting, agents will be contacted for the purpose of clarification in staff s best effort to provide an accurate comparison. At this point, proposals and the comparison report will be provided to Commissioners prior to the date of the board meeting when all proposals will be considered. Agencies submitting proposals will be invited to attend the meeting. Each agency ( participating may have an individually scheduled time to offer proposals. In addition, a question and answer session comparing coverages will be held with all participating agencies invited to attend. ( 44 .--- I 111111 BOND, SCHOENECK & KING, P.A. ATIORNEYSATLAW' FLORIDA KANSAS NEWYORK MEMORANDUM TO: Robert D. Geroy, Chairman Frank VanEssen, Ph.D., Executive Director Stacy Welch, Director of Administration FROM: F. Joseph McMackin, III Lenore T. Brakefield DATE: September 13,2005 RE: District contributions to aid in Hurricane Katrina relief Issue: Collier Mosquito Control District ( "CMCD") inquired as to whether it may use taxpayer funds for purposes outside the District and to what extent. Specifically, CMCD wanted to know whether it could contribute money and/or equipment to aide Louisiana, Mississippi or ( Alabama in the wake of the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. Executive Summary: It is uncertain whether CMCD, as a general policy, would be able to expend taxpayer funds for purposes outside the District. The Florida statutes are vague. However, due to Hurricane Katrina, President Bush signed a Presidential Disaster Declaration which allows states to use taxpayer funds to aid states affected by the hurricane. In addition, under the Mutual Aid Compacts there are governor to governor agreements between various states to provide aid to each other. Florida has entered into a Compact with Mississippi; while, Texas has entered into a Compact with Louisiana. The Florida Compact allows CMCD to use taxpayer funds to aide the State of Mississippi as the District sees fit. In researching this issue, we contacted the Department of Agriculture and Consumer ( Services and specifically the Bureau of Entomology and Pest Control (the "Bureau"). We were 45 .~,,~----- put in contact with the Mike Paige, Director of the Bureau. Mr. Paige advised us that the most efficient way for CMCD to help Mississippi was to prepare a "Notification" which contains a list of resources that CMCD is willing to make available. Once this Notification is complete, Mr. Paige will help the District submit it as required under the Florida-Mississippi Mutual Aid Compact. The proper officials in Mississippi will be contacted so that they are aware of the resources CMCD has to offer. If and when the State of Mississippi needs any of these identified resources, including funds, CMCD will be notified. Mr. Paige is willing to help CMCD accomplish this donation. He has provided us with the following contact numbers to help expedite the process: Office: (850) 921-4177 Home: (850) 668-9725 Cell: (850) 528 -5314 ( I 46 -.--"-.--....--.--,- 11111 BOND, SCHOENECK & KING, P.A. ATTORNEYS AT LAW . FLORIDA KANSAS NEWYORK MEMORANDUM TO: Collier Mosquito Control District FROM: F. Joseph McMackin, III Lenore T. Brakefield DATE: May 25, 2005 RE: Duties of the Treasurer Collier Mosquito Control District ("CMCD") has power pursuant to the Florida Statutes to establish a board of commissioners. Fla. Stat. 388.121. Included within the board is the position of treasurer. Additionally within the Florida Statutes is the power of the board to .' appoint and fix the salary ofa chief financial officer ("CFO"). Fla. Stat. 189.436. The CFO is , \ responsible for the funds and finances ofCMCD. Any funds disbursed must be done at the direction of the board and signed by the persons designated by the board. Additional duties and powers may be given by the board to the CFO. However, the Florida Statutes does specifically assign the treasurer the duty of accepting the payment of taxes from the tax collector. Fla. Stat. 388.221. Taxes are to be held by the treasurer for the credit of the board and paid out by the treasurer as ordered by the board. Collier Mosquito Control District has correctly established a board of commissioners, including the position of treasurer. Further, CMCD has appointed a CFO who is charged with administering its fiscal affairs. Essentially the treasurer supervises the CFO. Consequently, the day to day tasks associated with funds, finances and fiscal affairs are delegated to the CFO. This is accomplished, in part, through the use of the facsimile signature of , '\ 47 ---, - the treasurer. Based on conversations with the board, treasurer and CFO, it appears that CMCD is operating within the power conferred to it by the Florida Statutes.
