INTRODUCTION The residents of Marco Island requested the Board of County Commissioners to develop a comprehensive plan to guide the future development of this Island community. It became apparent early in the planning process that the lack of planning for Marco Island, over the past 25 years had resulted in a situation where the solution of near term needs must be assigned a higher priori~' than true visionary, planning. Marco Island is currently subject to the regulations outlined in the County's Growth Management Plan. For those areas not specifically addressed in this Master Plan, the policies of the Growth Management Plan will apply. Marco Island is currently one million gallons per day short of drinking water during peak season. The traffic situation on Marco Island, especially during peak season, is a major concern of the residents. A determination on whether there is a need for additional wastewater treatment facilities on Marco Island must be resolved. With the exception of two smaII parcels, all the vacant land on Marco is privately owned and is being developed at a rapid pace. If "land banking" is not completed before the few remaining parcels are developed, Marco may be denied the opportunity of having a place for cultural and/or community activities. These concerns, plus otl~er factors, have resulted in the deveIopment of this Plan and its implementation. " This plan consists of three sections: 1. The Overview Section, which describes the purpose, the planning process, the unique characteristics of Marco Island and a summary overview of the pIan. 2. The Implementation Strategy, is the tool to effectuate the plan which includes the goals, objectives, and the implementation policies developed to address Iand use, open space and recreation, and public facilities. This section also includes the Future Land Use Map and Land Use Designation Descriptive Section. 3. The Support Document provides data and information used to develop the Goals, Objectives, and Policies outlined in the Implementation Strategy. II. OVERVIEW A. PURPOSE OF MARCO ISLAND MASTER PLAN The Collier County Board of Commissioners authorized on March 22, 1994, the preparation of a Master Plan for Marco Island. The purpose of the pIan is to provide the framework and direction under which the growth and development of Marco Island can occur while preserving its tropical environment, reflecting its unique residential and commercial characteristics, and fulfilling the needs of its residents into the foreseeable future. B. COUNTY-WIDE PLANNING PROCESS As mandated by Chapter 163, Florida Statues, the "LocaI Comprehensive Planning and Land Development Regulations Act" and Chapter 9J-5, Florida Administrative Code, "Minimum Criteria for Review of Local Comprehensive Plans and Determination of Compliance", Collier County adopted a new Growth Management Plan in January of 1989. This legislation requires all counties and municipalities throughout the State of Florida to develop a plan which consists of the following elements: 1. Land Use; 2. Traffic Circulation, Mass Transit, and Aviation; 3. Housing; 4. Public Facilities; 5. Capital Improvements; ._ 6..Recreation and Open Space; 7. Intergovernmental Coordination; and 8. Conservation and Coastal Management C. THE SCOPE OF THE MARCO ISLAND MASTER PLAN Marco Island is defined for the purpose of this Master Plan as that area encompassed by the bridge connecting Route 951 to the Island and the bridge on Route 92, where it crosses the Marco River. Goodland is not included in this Master Plan. The Marco Island Master PIan addresses the specific needs of Marco Island. The Master PIan includes: 1. The demographics of Marco Island pertinent to planning infrastructure requirements. 2. A projection of buildout in terms of dwelling units and population. 3. The current status of the major elements of the infrastructure. 4. The infrastructure needs at buildout. 5. The goals and objectives for th6 infrastructure. 6. The policies and procedures to achieve the goals and objectives. 7. A plan for each element of the infrastructure. 8. Future Land Use Designations and Map 9. A data base and the procedures for monitoring and reporting on plan implementation. -2- D. CHARACTERISTICS OF MARCO ISLAND Every community has its own personality, needs, and potential. Each community is unique and Marco Island is no exception. It is important to know and understand those factors that make a community unique and how those factors influence the goals of a community. The principal characteristics unique to Marco Island that will affect the Master Plan are as follows: * It is a residential community composed basically of residents with a need for services and sufficient businesses to support the desired lifestyle of the residents. * It is a second or "part-time" residence for a large number of the property owners. * It has a significant change in seasonal population. * It is an Island with fixed boundaries (the Gul0 with no possibility of expanding these boundaries to accommodate growth. * It has an environment and dimate that attracts large numbers of visitors desiring to utilize the beaches and facilities. * It has experienced a rapid growth in dwelling units and population with little or no infrastructure planning to accommodate future growth. E. WORKING RELATIONSHIPS Subsequent to the Commission authorization of a Master Plan for Marco Island on March 22, 1994, Marco residents initiated the pIanning process. Members representing the various interests of Marco Island including: Marco Island Civic Association, Marco Island Taxpayers Association, Marco Island Association of Condominiums, Marco Island Chamber of Commerce, Marco Island Board of Realtors, the area churches and residents not affiliated with any civic organization formed an ad hoc committee. A Marco Island Vision Planning Advisory Committee was formed by ordinance with members of the groups identified above. The working relationship between the residents, the Marco Island Vision PIanning Advisory Committee, the staff and the County Commissioners is outlined in section G of the Support Documentation - Public Participation Proposal- and Appendix I. The plan was conceived and authorized as a joint effort between the Marco Island Vision Planning Advison' Committee and the staff with the Committee taking the lead in working with the residents to determine the objectives, needs and priorities and the staff taking the lead in defining procedures and policies. It was to be Marco's plan as determined by consensus of the residents of Marco Island. -3- Ordinance #92-42 adopted on January 10 1995 officially authorized a "Marco Island Vision Planning Advisory Committee" (see Appendix I). The official function, powers, and duties of this Committee as defined in the ordinance are as follows: A. To aid and assist in the preparation of the Marco Island Master Plan. This duty would include assistance with data coIlection, conducting surveys, elicit citizen input, develop policy recommendations, and review and make recommendations on the Capital Improvements Element as it relates to Marco Island. B. To provide recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners on policies related to the development of the Master Plan. C. To provide a forum for broad citizen input and participation. D. To provide information to the general public and keep the dtizens of Marco Island involved and informed of the planning process as it reIates to the formulation of the Marco IsIand Master Plan. E. To perform or assist with any other function or duty as it relates to the development of the Marco IsIand Master Plan as requested by the Board of County Commissioners. F. The Committee meetings shall be open to the public. F. PUBLIC INPUT An important element of the Master Plan was the involvement of the residents of Marco _ Island. Several mechanisms were utilized to inform and to solicit input from the residents. The initial information meeting was held on April 26, 1994. The purpose of this meeting was to seek input and advise the citizens regarding of the Master Plan planning effort. The meeting agenda included a definition of the Master PIan, what it entailed, a description of the work to be done, and the approach and procedures for performing the work, the purpose and needs for the Master Plan, and the channels of communication available to the residents to comment on the PIan. The presentations at this meeting were made by the Collier Coun,ty Planning staff, Harold Vann, Marco Island resident, and John Norris, Marco Island District Commissioner. A telephone survey was made in August 1994 of the residents of Marco Island, over 800 residents were contacted. The purpose of this survey was to determine the popuIation, the population mix, and the issues and priorities as conceived by the residents. A second survey was made in February, 1995; over 1100 residents were contacted. The results of these surveys are included in Appendix II. Information workshops were held to allow the residents an opportunity to express their views on the needs and priorities, proposed solutions and the programs to meet these needs. -4- The following public meetings were conducted: April 26, 1994 Kickoff pubIic meeting August ln94 Telephone census November 30, 1994 Public Workshop December 27, 1994 Public Workshop January, 3, 1995 Public Workshop January 10, 1995 Public Workshop January 18, 1995 Public Workshop February 1995 TeIephone census March 8, 1995 Newspaper poII March 31, 1995 Community Urban Design Workshop April 1, 1995 Community Urban Design Workshop April 2, 1995 Community Urban Design Workshop April 3, 1995 Community Urban Design Workshop .luly 27, 1995 Community Workshop January 30, 1996 Community Workshop February 8, 1995 Community W3rkshop In addition to the scheduled public meetings, input was obtained by public discussions with the following civic organizations on the island: Marco Island Civic Association Marco Island Taxpayers Association Marco Association of Cc/ndominiums Members of Chamber of Commerce Members of Realtor Association Rotary Clubs Cruise Club -5- Additional input was obtained from seven subcommittees that held public meetings on their assigned area of concern. The Marco Island Vision PIarming Advisory Committee held 25 meetings which were specifically designed to keep the public aware of the issues, develop alternative solutions, review the progress, and to provide a conduit for input. There was continuous press coverage. The results of the public surveys, the minutes of the public meetings, including a copy of the resuIts of the Community Urban Design Workshop are found in Appendix H and Appendix VIII. G. CONCERNS EXPRESSED BY MARCO ISLAND RESIDENTS The concerns expressed in the public meetings in the approximate order of priority are as follows: WATER SUPPLY AND COST TRAFFIC CONGESTION AND ROAD SAFETY BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN PATHS - IMPACT OF DEVELOPMENT ON 951 CORRIDOR - BEACH PRESERVATION - LACK OF TROPICAL AND RELAXED APPEARANCE OF ISLAND - PARKS AND RECREATION FACILITIES - COMMUNITY AND CULTURAL FACILITIES - DRAINAGE - ZONING ORDINANCE ENFORCEMENT ' ' ELECTRIC POWER AVAILABILITY AND BACKUP - ROAD MAINTENANCE - SIGNAGE - MAINTENANCE OF VACANT PROPERTY -6- H. PLANNING GUIDELINES The public input established the broad planning guidelines listed below: 1. Marco Island is primarily a residential communi,ty. The infrastructure planning wilI be based on the assumption that the commercial component of the island will be developed to meet the needs of the residents. Guided by sound zoning and the economics of the marketplace, the Marco community should adapt to the changes in its population characteristics as single family dwelling units increase between now and buildout in a manner that will enhance the tropical nature of the island, improve the quality of life of the residents, and increase overall property vaIues. This vision is consistent with the Deltona Public Offering Statement to prospective buyers, dated October, 1970, which reads: "Marco Island is being developed into a residential community and land is restricted for residential purposes, with sufficient land restricted for commercial purposes to reasonably serve the community." 2. Criteria for managing the use of the waterways internal to the isIand boundary and those adjacent to the island shouId be developed in a manner that will enhance the lifestyle and preserve the value of the community. 3. The character of Marco Island should reflect a blend of an informal, tropical, and cultural lffes~,Ie. 4. Elements of the island's infrastructure will be designed to support a projected peak of 50,000* people at buildout, under the assumption that the residents wiIl accept a high " ' level of traffic congestion, crowded commercial facilities and, in general, a somewhat less than desirable level of comfort during the peak season of January, February, and March. 5. The planning process should consider all practical methods of growth management, within the existing confines of Marco Island and take all practical steps to manage the externaI impacts (outside the two Marco bridges) areas, such as the 951 corridor leading to the island. * 50,000 population includes 45,000 residents, renters, hotel guests, (assuming 100% occupancy) 5,000 day visitors and service people. I. APPROACH The first step in the planning process Was to develop a reliable and reconstructible source of data on the existing number of dwelling units and the population of Marco Island "bridge to bridge", and project the rate of growth, the number of units, and the population at buildout. These data were used in planning the needs at buildout. These data and the surveys and methodology used to generate these data are included in the support documents. The second step was to develop the current status of the infrastructure elements. For example, the committee worked with Southern States Utilities to determine capacity vs. demand for water and sewer in 1994 and at buildout. The committee worked with Lee Count1,`· Electric to determine the power needs and capacity in 1994 and at buildout. Traffic counters were placed on the major roads and traffic counts were taken during the season peak (Nlarch) and the season low (August/September). Projections of buildout traffic were made from these data. The Beach Re-nourishment Committee provided the data base on beaches. The Chamber of Commerce provided the data base for the business needs. These reports are included in the Appendices. Wherever subcommittees were formed an effort was made to involve established organizations with charters and interest in the element where data was needed. For example, the President of the Marco Art League chaired the Vision Planning Subcommittee to explore the need for community and cultural needs. This process provided the following benefits to the planning process: 1. All involved parties were using the same data base and definitions in defining status anti making projections for buildout. 2. There was a general agreement between the Vision Planning Committee, the CounW staff, the involved party, such as Southern States Utilities, Lee County EIectric, and the civic groups on the data and the issues. 3. The atoproach involved a large number of Marco residents in the planning process. For example, approximately 150 Marco residents assisted in each of the two island-wide census conducted by the Vision Planning Advisory, Committee and the ad hoc subcommittee to review the needs for community and cuIturaI needs was composed of members of the Art League, the Historical Society, the Marco Players, the Lions Club, the Shrine Club, the Concert Choir Club, etc., representing Marco organizations with a membership of over 5,000 residents. 4. Each of the seven ad hoc working subcommittees had a member representing a substantial number of Marco residents. The seven subcommittees were: Education, Zoning/Land Use, Transportation/Roundabout, Cultural Activities/Facilities, Waterways, Business Needs and Sen'ices, and Alternative Funding. The input to the planning process involved a sufficient number of Marco residents so that the act of data generation resulted in a "mini" consensus prior to obtaining general public consensus. J. SUMMARY OF MARCO'S MOST CRITICAL NEEDS Concerns expressed in the public workshop meetings, which were also supported by the results evident from the collection of data on Marco Island infrastructure, are summarized below in the approximate order of priorit2,,': -8- Marco Island is provided with potable water service by Southern States Utilities (SSU). The existing 1994 capacity is 9 million gallons/day. The demand in March 1994 (a very period) was 10.309 million gaIIons per day. The projected need, based on existing demand for potable water at buiIdout is 14 to 15 million gallons per day. The wastewater treatment service for Marco Island is provided by SSU. Less than half of the island has available sewer, the remaining portion uses septic systems. As of December 1994 there were 2,297 single family dwellings on Marco Island connected to septic tanks. There are approximately 5,000 additional single family dwelIing units yet to be constructed on Marco. There are indications that the fecal coliform count in the canaIs and surrounding water may exceed the recommended limits for Class II waters. The traffic congestion during the peak season (January, February, March) on the main roads on Marco Island is a major concern of the residents. Marco Island does not have the alternative of constructing new roads to split the traffic and is limited in the ability or desire to add lanes to the existing roads. These limitations make it necessary to concentrate on traffic calming techniques that will take traffic "off the road", by creating a network of roads, bicycle paths, and pedestrian facilities that will create and maintain safe and efficient traffic movement without expanding road lane widths. The lack of an adequate drainage system on Marco Island results in serious flooding of the roads during periods of heavy rain. This condition creates a traffic safety problem as well as a traffic flow problem and could be critical during a forced evacuation. Little vacant land is under public ownership. With one exception the undeveloped sites suitable for cultural, community activities, and/or park facilities, are privately owned. Development on Marco is occurring at a rapid pace and unless some judicial "Iand banking" is done, before this property is developed, Marco may be denied the opportunity of having additional public recreation facilities in the future. Some portions of the Collier County Land Development Code are not the same as the Marco (Deltona) deed restrictions. However, it is not the County's intention to enforce private deed restrictions, but the County may create development standards specific to the residential and commercial character of Marco Island to create the type of deveIopment consistent with the tropical small town environment of Marco Island and would be enforceable by the County. Beautificafion efforts on Marco Island have been limited to beautification and maintenance of the median strips on Collier Boulevard and portions of Barfield Drive. These boundaries are not conducive for creating a tropical environment island-wide requested by the residents of Marco Island. Public input along with technical input from the parties involved has moIded a general consensus between the public, the Vision Planning Advisory Committee, and the responsible parties on the plans listed in this Plan to resolve these issues. -9- Outside factors can have a significant effect on long and even short range projection and planning. For example, the demand for potable water on Marco IsIand was 10.3 miIlion gallons per day in March 1994. These data indicated a consumption of 324 gallon per capita dav. The demand for potable water in March of 1995 (one year Iater) was 9.4 milHon gallons per day. These data indicated a consumption of 291 gallons per capita day. The difference in water consumption is influence by whether the season is dry or a wet season. Between 1984 and 1992 an average of 500 units per year were being constructed. Between 1990 and 1993 the rate of growth had slowed to the construction of (average) 155 units per year. In 1994 there were 194 construction permits issued. The future economy can have a major effect on rate of growth. If long range planning is delayed until all future data are confirmed and exact costs are in hand, the long range plan becomes a definition of the present and many desirabIe options are no longer available. -10- III. IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY This section describes the goals, objectives, and policies to implement the plan and will be adopted by ordinance. Goals, objectives, and policies included in the Collier County Growth Management Plan and not specifically addressed in this Master Plan, including the Housing and Conservation and Coastal Management Elements, will apply with equal force on Marco Island. A. GOALS, OBIECTIVES AND POLICIES POPULATION GOAL I: DEVELOP AND MAINTAIN RELIABLE POPULATION ESTIMATES AND OTHER DEMOGRAPHIC DATA THAT ARE NEEDED TO DETERMINE AND/OR PROJECT INFRASTRUCTURE REQUIREMENTS, EVALUATE THE NEEDS FOR ADEQUATE SERVICES AND TO MONITOR AND MAINTAIN THE DESIGNATED LEVEL OF SERVICES (L.O.S.). OBJECTIVE I.l: Within one year of Plan's effective date, the county will cause to have made, accurate annual estLrnates of the dweIIing units and the population residing on Marco Island. These estimates are to be made for both the peak (February) and minimum (August) seasons. The population estimates will include residents, renters, and hoteI guests. The estimate will be - consistent with the methodology used to determine popuIation listed in the support documents. POLICY I.l.l: These population and dwelling unit estimates will be used to establish and maintain level of service (L.O.S.) standards that will ensure the community is adequately served by the area's sanitary sewers, solid waste collection, drainage, potable water, EMS, and roads. POLICY 1.1.2 The Number of Dwelling Units (TabIe One) and Marco Island Population (Table Two) will be updated by the County on an annual basis. POLICY 1.1.3: The counP,,, will utilize accurate demographic data to ensure the availability of sufficient and appropriately located land for wastewater treatment, solid waste, drainage, potable water, utilities, roads, public facilities and other infrastructure element~ necessary to support approved renewal and/or planned growth.

Preservation/Conservation Standards and permitted uses for each Marco Island Master Plan Future Land Use District are identified in the Designation and Description Section of this plan. This Policy shall supersede Policy 1.1 of the FLUE of the Growth Management Plan. -14- Policy II.1.3 Mixed Use Town Center District shall alIow a mixture of higher densit3' residential (maximum density of 12 dweIling units per acre when specific development standards are followed), community facilities, and appropriate commercial uses (ranging from C-1 to C-5) with specific development standards. Development standards and appropriate commercial uses will be developed via an area-wide master plan that will be implemented as an overlay or other appropriate method. This plan will be prepared by the Community Development and EnvironmentaI Services Division within one year of Plan's effective date. Once completed, the Town Center Overlay will be incorporated into the Land Development Code (LDC). The density will remain at four units per acre and hotel units will be allowed at a maximum density of 26 units per acre until the Mixed Use Town Center Overlay is adopted in the LDC. Policy II.1.4 Village Center District shall allow a mixture of higher density residential (maximum density of 8 units per acre when specific development standards are followed ), community facilities, and appropriate commercial uses (ranging from C1-C5) with specific development standards. Development standards and identification of commercial uses appropriate to the area will be developed via an area-wide master plan that will be implemented as an overlay or other appropriate method. This plan will be prepared by the Community Development and Environmental Services Division within one year of Plan's effective date. Once completed, the Village Center Overlay will be incorporated into the Land Development Code. The density will remain at four units per acre until the Village Center Overlay is adopted in the LDC.

OBJECTIVE III.l: The County will assure that all federal and state requirements and the designated level of service standards are met by the suppliers of potable water to Marco IsIand. POLICY III.1.1: Within one year of Plan's effective date, the ColIier County Community Development and Environment Services Division will initiate a mechanism to obtain quarterly reports from the suppliers of potabIe water that contains the following information: a) MonthIy demand (usage) for the present and the preceding 5 years. b) Projected usage (year by year) to buildout. c) The current sources of supply and the current capacity to process and distribute the source of supply. d) The plan and scheduIe to meet any demand in excess of either the current source or existing capadty. A copy of the reports will be provided to the CoiHer County Community Development and -- Environment Services Division. -22 - OBJECTIVE Ill. Z: Within one year from the date of Plan's effective date, a comprehensive program will be implemented for the Marco Island area, that will reduce the per capita consumption of water from the actual 290 gallons per day to 200 gallons per day which is the LOS in the Growth Management Plan. Policy 111.2.1: The County will support the potable water supplier's Conservation Program (included in Appendix III) and receive their monthly monitoring reports on water usage and review their quarterly progress reports to track the success of the program. Policy III.2.2: Within two years of the Plan's effective date, a landscaping ordinance will be adopted that limits the amount of sod in a landscape plan to 50% of lot size (calculated on the remaining parcel size after the dwelling unit foot print is subtracted) for all new development on Marco Island and encourages the use of native and drought tolerant plants permitted on Marco Island. Policy III.2.3: The County wiI1 encourage, to the best of their ability, the use and development of reclaimed water service on Marco Island. The County will take the steps necessary to encourage a reclaimed water service on Marco Island that will reduce the demand for potable water by 2 million gallons per day by December 2000 either through water conservation or the use of reclaimed water. PoIicy III.2.4: - - Within one year of the Plan's effective date, the Cotmty will adopt a water restriction ordinance for Marco Island that will restrict lawn irrigation, without an emergency being declared, to different times and days of the week depending on both address location and even/odd numbering, for areas that do not have reclaimed water service available for irrigation. -23 - OBJECTIVE III.3: The County shall support the potable water supplier's efforts to expand the capacity and dependabili,ty of the existing facility. POLICY III.3.1: The County, will encourage the potable water supplier to provide an adequate water supply to meet future demands that take into account quality, quantity, and cost.

OBJECTIVE IV.l: The County will encourage that wastewater treatment, collection, treatment and disposal facilities are made available to correct any possibIe deficiencies and to meet future growth, that meet or exceed the level of service standards established in this Plan. POLICY IV.I.I: The level of service (LOS) for wastewater treatment capacity will be 100 gallons per capita per day (gpcd) for Marco Island. This LOS contrasts with a calculated actual value of 88 gallons per capita day for 1994, and the County's Growth Management Plan Level of Service (LOS) of 121 gallons per capita day. POLICY IV.1.2: The CounLy will encourage the Department of HeaRh and Rehabilitative Services (H RS) to annually request the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to conduct annual water quality tests in and adjacent to the waterways of Marco Island to be conducted within one year of the Plan's effective date. The purpose of these tests is to determine the fecal coliform and fecal strep count and to identify the source of these counts. These tests are to be taken in areas with a high concentration of septic - tanks, areas with all units connected to sewer, areas where no development has occurred, and areas far enough away from septic tanks to provide a "background" for comparing data. The test resuIts will be made avaiIabIe to the public. POLICY IV.1.3: The water in the canals shall meet the criteria cited in Chapter 62-302.530 of the Florida Administrative Code for Class II Waters. This code cites the bacterioIogical quality criteria for fecal coIiform bacteria to be most probable number shall not exceed a median value of 14 colonies per milHIiter, with not more than 10% of samples exceecting 43 colonies per 100 milliliters nor any samples exceeding 800 colonies per 100 milIiliters. -26- POLICY IV.1.4: The test results will determine if there are water concerns and whether further installation of additional wastewater treatment facilities should be considered. The results from the testing will be presented to the residents of Marco Island at public meetings. If the results of the tests (as described) demonstrate that fecal colifoxni count exceeds the criteria for CIass II Waters, then a County referendum will be taken, at the next regularly scheduled eIection, of the affected.residents of Marco Island on whether to recommend to the Board of County Commissioners that it consider wasterwater treatment expansion. The referendum results will be presented to the Board of County Commissioners. If the referendum results are in favor of wastewater treatment exp,'msion, it will be recommended to the Board of County Commissioners that a plan be prepared by the Division of Public Works. The pIan shall begin the process to install wastewater treatment facilities and provide the capacity for connecting existing units on septic tanks and all new units on the wastewater treatment system. If the tests demonstrate that the fecal coilform count is within the criteria for Class II Waters, then septic tanks will be permitted as long as the fecal coliform and fecaI strep count stays within the criteria. Policy IV.1.5 At a regularly scheduled election, the residents of Marco Island will determine by referendum a funding source to investigate and report to the residents of Marco Island other technologies for wastewater coIlection and/or treatment besides the conventional gravity sewer and septic tank systems. If the referendum fatIs this policy will be deleted. Policy IV.1.6 The County will encourage Health and Rehabilitative Services (HRS) to conduct an educational campaig-n on septic tank use and maintenance. OBJECTIVE IV.2: The County, to the best of its ability, will promote the use of treated wastewater effluent for irrigation purposes in order to provide an environmentally sound disposal method and to conserve potable water and ground water supplies by developing and impIementing an integrated, comprehensive strategy for the following policies. POLICY IV.2.1: The County, to the best of its ability, will encourage the installation of a reclaimed water line of sufficient capacity to distribute 2 MGD of effluent from the existing on-island waste treatment plant, or equivalent in terms of water conservation, to the most economically suitable and usable areas by December 2000. POLICY IV.2.2: The County, to the best of its ability, will coordinate the instaIlation of the reclaimed water line and the sewer collection line to be most cost effective. POLICY IV.2.3: The Coun[y will provide preliminary design plans showing the size and location of the reclaimed water line and the sewer collection line as part of the conceptual design/streetscape plan identified in the Transportation Element of this Plan. These data will be used to coordinate the plans for road modification and the instaIlation of bicycle paths and sidewalks. -28- TRANSPORTATION Goal V: TO ACHIEVE A NETWORK OF ROADS, BICYCLE PATHS, PEDESTRIAN FACILITIES AND TRANSIT THAT WILL CREATE AND MAINTAIN SAFE TRAFFIC MOVEMENTS THAT ENHANCE THE TROPICAL SMALL TOWN ENVIRONMENT OF MARCO ISLAND.

SUPPORT DOCUMENT STUDY AREA INVENTORY/ASSESSMENT MARCO ISLAND MASTER PLAN NOVEMBER 12, 1996 A. INTRODUCTION Guidelines for providing support documentation for optional Growth Management Plan elements such as the Marco Island Master Plan are no~: provided in Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, or Rule 9J-5, Florida Administrative Code. As a result, this support document does not follow a specified format However, it does provide a guide to establishing goals, objectives, and polldes, making land use decisions, and developing implementation strategies. The support documentation includes the following sections: A. Introduction B. History of Marco C. Demographics D. Land Use - Existing and Future E. PubIic Facilities F. Capital ImprovemenLs G. Public Participation H. Appendices B. HISTORY OF MARCO ISLAND Marco Island is the largest (6,000 acres) and most northerly island in the Ten Thousand Island chain that extends to Key West. It is 16 miles south of Naples and 104 miles west of Miami. Six miles of sparkling, sandy beach are highlighted by a three-and-a- half mile crescent-shaped white sand beach on the Gulf of Mexico. Marco's history actually stretches far into the past - perhaps 5,000 years - and conveniently fails into four phases: the Calusa Indians and their predecessors, the pioneer era, the Deltona period, and the post-Deltona period. THE CALUSA Calusa histon,,, without any records, is speculative. However, the arlifacts, when pieced together, give a fairly complete picture of an ancient key-dwelling dvilization. The Calusa Indians were most probably descendants of the early Mayans of the Yucatan, although the word 'Calusa' is thought to be a corruption of the name Caloosa or Carols, a province of Indi~'ns and the name of their chief. Their ancestors are believed to have moved to Florida at least 2,000 years or more before Christ. Seven feet tail, the warriors were savage; they painted their bodies with images of animals and pIants and raided other Indian tribes. Three-foot-high ceremonial headgear added to their fierce appearance, making it easier to exact tribute from lesser tribes. The first record of Calusa artifacts was in the spring of 1895 when Captain BiLl Collier, son of Marco's founder, W.T. CoIIier, uncovered ancient wooden articles, shell tools and netted cordage while digging in the silt and muck near his garden on Key Marco, as Marco Island was then called. Since that time, more than 130 other sites and mounds have been excavated in Southwest FIorida, but Collier's find sparked investigation of one of the richest archaeological sites in North America. Today most of the artifacts from the site are scattered. Some are in the London Museum (compliments of Col. Durnford), some at the Philadelphia Museum, and most are at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C. The whereabouts of the original ColHer find articles is unknown. No other Calusa site has ever given up the amount, variety, and kind of significant arfifacts left on Marco Island. THE PIONEER ERA In 1870, 10 years before the rounding of Naples, 55 year old, W.T. Collier (no relation to Barron Gift Collier) rounded the modern Marco town site. He brought his family, wife Barbara and their nine children, to the island from Tennessee In 1870 on the schooner, Robert E. Lee, landing at Smokehouse Creek. The only other peopIe on Marco were four bIack squatters. Collier bought their claims and paid their transportation back to Fort Myers. The ColHers grew a patch of cabbage and set up a trading station for the Key West market. In the 1880's a sailing vessel began to make regular tarpon and snook fishing trips from Key West, and Marco became known as a sport fishing haven. Mullet was the most common fish in the shalIow waters; huge schooIs two to three miles long were reported in the passes. In 1888, one of their sons, William D. "Captain BiII" ColLier received a commission as postmaster', making Marco the second post office in the County. For a while it was caIIed Malco because it was mistakenly assumed that there was another Marco in Florida. Captain Bill Collier opened a very successful general store on the waterfront. Thirty or forty canoes sometimes gathered there as Indians brought hides, furs and feathers to trade. -2- Then in 1896 he renovated his home into a hotel (which was to become the present-day Marco Inn), a 20 room hotel with sleeping rooms, a parlor, a dining room and an indoor, two-sto.ry bathroom. The captain built a boatyard where boats were constructed for Key West shrimpers, for the Naples Company and for Miamians. Captain Bill Collier planted an orange grove at Henderson Creek, and on the island itself he planted 5,000 coconut paIms. He cut a road to the beach about a mile from the Marco town site, surfaced it with shells, built a number of houses and represented the area on the Lee County Board of Commissioners. The eider Collier, W.T., passed on in 1902 and Barbara, the mother, died several years later. In 1904 the E.S. Burnham Packing Co. purchased a site from James and Tommie Barfield at Caxambas Pass and began to mine the rich oyster beds. In 1908 Captain Bill Collier invented a dam dredging machine that allowed clams to be harvested in water up to 12 feet deep instead of picking them by hand in shallow water. In 1910 Captain Collier invited J.H. Doxsee, of the Doxsee Clam Packing Company in New York, to Marco to look over the prospect for a clam cannery. The Doxsees moved to Marco and buiIt the isIand's second canning factory in 1911 in Old Marco Village. Captain Collier remained a moving force on Marco until the earIy 1920's. He even refused Barton G. CoIIier's offer to buy the Marco town site in 1922 when B.G. Collier purchased the greater part of the island. Captain Collier died in Fort Myers in 1934. The Burnham factory's dredge sank in a storm shortly before the company shut down in 1929 due to over-harvested clam beds. But five generations of the Doxsee family operated the Marco cannery until it closed in 1947, and descendants stilI reside on Marco. When the Atlantic Coast Line and the Seaboard Airline extended their lines southward along the coast, the Seaboard stopped at Naples, but the Atlantic Coast pressed on to Marco, driving pilings a~ross the bay and arriving June 27, 1927. For a while there were two trains a day running to the station near the present site of Tommie Barfield Elementary School. With the advent of the railroad, residents had high hopes that the island would become a harbor city, but the Great Depression squashed all such hopes. Regular rail service limped on until 1942 when it was abandoned, although it ran sporadically for another two years, picking up shipments from the clam cannery. When the Aftantic Coast raiIroad steamed into town in 1927, a New York syndicate, the San Marco Corporation, had ambitious plans to develop Marco. Financial backing came from such men as George E. Ruppert, younger brother of Jacob Ruppert, of beer and baseball fame, who was thought to be the principal investor. As part of the development plan, the state agreed to incorporate the entire island as Collier City, named for W.T. Collier and family. The corporation offered to sell 525 lots at Marco town site for $6,000 to $10,000. The lots were advertised far and wide, and huge sports events were staged. The Marco Regatta of 1927 held tarpon fishing contests, races, swimming, etc. The event attracted a record crowd. But the dream was shattered and the real estate boom collapsed with the depression. When Barron Gift Collier, trolley car advertising magnate, acquired most of Marco Island from the L & N Railroad in 1922, there were also squatters and property owners involved. He bought the claims from them, but allowed them to live on the property rent free until he was ready to use it in 1949. He bought most of Marco, less Captain Bill Collier's Marco township (Old Marco) and the Pettit holdings at Goodland. Barron CoLlier Sr., had dreams of developing Marco but the depression forced him to put his plans on hold. Barron CoLlier died in 1939. The Colliers offered to sell Marco Island to the State of Florida, for a nature preserve, ' ' fo~ a'sum of $1 million. The proposal was refused. The Tomrole Barfield School was opened in 1956. The CoIlier's management company sent a letter to the Macides on May 24, 1962. This letter enclosed two maps, one of the Collier holdings on Marco and the other showing a source of potabIe water on the mainland (The old rock quarry approximately seven miIes north of Marco). These maps prompted the initial inspection tour of Marco by the Mackles later that year. Negotiations between the CoIIiers and the Macldes culminated in an agreement to create the Marco Island Development Corporation (MIDC), owned 50% by the CoIIiers and 50% by Deltona. The agreement was signed in June 1964. It was the end of the second phase of Marco Island's history - an era that began with W.T. Collier and ended with Barron Gift Collier. THE DELTONA PERIOD The Deltona Corporation initiated the development of Marco Island with a Master Plan in 1964. The major content of this Master Plan were the plot plans for the residential lots, dwelling and commercial lots. the original plot maps were filed and -4- recorded in the public record between October 17, 1964 and December 11, 1969. Deltona decided to develop the Island in five phases. The first phase contained the commercial heart of development. It bordered the Marco River on the north and east, SR951 on the west and CR 92 on the south. The second phase was the southwest portion of the Island around Roberrs Bay, with CR92 as the upper border and the Gulf of Mexico on the west. The third phase involved the northwest portion of Marco Island around Collier Bay. It was bounded on the east by 951, the south by CR92 and the north and west by the Gulf. The fourth and fifth phases reached off the mainland on both sides of CR92. The portion south of CR92 was called Barfield Bay/Blue Hill and that north of CR92 called Big Key. Deltona filed a request for the Army Corps of Engineers in 1964 for a permit to develop the northeast portion of the Island (Phase 1). The permit was granted routinely four months after the request was made. The development of Marco Island was underway. The grand opening of Marco Island was January 31, 1965. By 1967 visitors could see the concept of a complete modern community. But few visitors could envision the master plan concept that rapidly unfolded a showcase communi,ty. The Colliers sold their portion of the development to Deltona in 1968. Mbst of the construction was completed before the Marco Island bridge and the new Goodland bridge were built. Heavy construction materials had to be transferred from large trucks onto smaller trucks to accommodate the weight Iimits for the oId wooden, hand-operated swing bridge at Goodland. The Marco River Bridge opened December 13, 1969. The Mackles had easily obtained the necessa~' County and State approvals for the permit areas and routine approval from the Army Corps of Engineers on the northeast portion of the Island (Phase 1). The State of Florida hailed the master plan as a model for other communities. Deltona submitted a request to the Army Corps of Engineers for a permit to develop the area around Roberts Bay in September 1967 (Phase 2). Between the submission for the first permit in 1964 and the second in 1967 something had changed. A new movement swept America. Environmentalism. Conservation groups, including the Collier County Conservancy, became alarmed at the probable impact of the Deltona master plan on the fragile wetlands. The Interior Department on September 13, 1968, recommended that the Army Corps of Engineers deny Deltona's request. In the meantime, work was continuing on the Island. The front nine holes of the golf course was opened in 1966 and the back nine soon after. After more than two years from -5- date of filing, the Army Corps of Engineers approved the development of the Roberts Bay area on December 8, 1969. The Del tona public offering statement, dated October 1, 1970, set the stage for pIanning with the statement "Marco Island is being developed into a resident community.' and Iand is restricted for residentiaI purposes with sufficient land restricted for commercial purposes to reasonably serve the community. The public offering statement also outlined the amenities anti recreational facilities on the Island and the improvements to be made on these facilities. The Marco Beach Hotel was opened in December 1971. The development of condominiums and dwelling units and businesses continued. In 1971 the Arm)' Corps of Engineers issued a cease and desist order for work inland from Collier Bay. In late 1971 Deltona agreed to cede Kice Island and other lands totaling 4,000 acres to the State. In July' 1973 Deltona prepared a "Marco Community Plan." The purpose of this plan was to serve as a guide for specific zoning of developed sites and to coordinate Marco's plan with Collier County long-range planning goals. The Army Corps of Engineers on April 17, 1976, denied Deltona's request to develop the Barfield Bav and Big Key areas (Parts 4 & 5) but approved the development of the Collier Bay area (Part 3). Deltona found it necessary to dispose of assets to meet expenses. One of the first proper~' to be disposed was the Town Center Mail, which was sold in 1977. The Marco Beach Hotel was placed on the market in 1977. The sale of other assets followed. Deltona petitioned the Supreme Court to overturn the Corps' decision. On March 22, 1982, ~e Supreme Court refused this petition. Shortly after the Supreme Court decision Deltona agreed to turn nearly all of its undeveloped hoIdings into nature preserves, in return for permission to put 300 units on Horr's Island and up to 600 single family units and 10,000 multi-family units on Marco Shores. The Deltona period began in 1962 and ended in 1982 with the Supreme Court decision. THE POST DELTONA PERIOD There was no specific date or clearly defined event that brought the Deltona period to a close. Deltona's ability to influence their vision of a fully developed Marco probably began to waiver in 1971 with the Army Corps' cease and desist order and continued to decline as they were forced to dispose of assets and make concession~ to the State and environmental interests. -6- As Deltona's influence began to diminish and their ability to plan became limited due to uncertainty, a vacuum was created that has not been filled. The power of Deltona's original vision of Marco Island and the soundness of their planning through 1973 provided the momentum to bring Marco to where it was in 1994. The development of hotels and motels are essentially complete, the development of beach front property and condominiums are essentially complete. The commercial development is approximately 85% complete. The major development yet to be done on Marco is the completion of single-family living units, which are approximately 45% complete, and putting in place the infrastructure support for the community at buildout. -'7- C. DEMOGRAPHICS Documented demographics for the Marco Island study area population is a critical step in formulating a Marco Island Master Plan. Demographics provide the basis for major planning decisions and are essential in forecasting demand for potable water, recreation facilities, transportation facilities, and other public facilities and services. This section outlines the population characteristics of the Marco Island community. Topics reviewed include historical and existing population estimates, age breakdown, population projections, race, sex, and income. Population Estimates Marco Island is a destination place for winter residents and tourists. Marco Island experiences tremendous influx of seasonal residents during the winter months. Many of the existing dwelling units on Marco Island are second-homes to northern and foreign visitors. As of 1994, only 21 percent of all parcels on Marco Island have a homestead exemption. Due to the seasonal variations and the different life styles of singIe family and condominium units. It was determined that a separate study be conducted to anaIyze occupancy trends and persons per household figure for each unit type in order to best estimate the current population and the population at buiIdout. Time Shares and hotel units, not usually included in calculating population, were included due to the impact of the tourist population. Methodology The methodology to estimate the number of permanent and seasonal residents in the Marco island study area is based on a combination of sources including two telephone censuses; Collier County Property Appraiser's Tax Roll, analysis of demand of water and newspapers; and the 1980 and 1990 Census. The Vision Planning Advisory, Committee conducted a telephone census in August 1994 and February, 1995 to determine occupancy, rates and persons per households. Table 1 displays the 1990 Census data and the telephone census data collected in 1994 and 1995. (Appendix II contains the population study including the t~vo census informa t'ion collected.)

The 1994 estimated population at 100% occupancy is 31,791 which includes all hotel and time share units. February population is based on an average of 90% occupancy for a total population of 28,612. In contrast, the 1994 August population is estimated at 40% occupancy for a total of 12,716 persons. Population at buildout is estimated at 45,311 at 100% occupancy and 40,780 for February and 24,921 for August. Table three dispIays occupancy rate by housing type for the 1980 and 1990 U.S. Census.

In addition, the single family occupancy rates reported in both the 1980 and 1990 census are substantially higher than the mul ti-family units and since the primary development that will occur from now to buildout will be single lramily dwellings it can be concluded that occupancy rates in the off season will increase due to the increase number of singIe family units.

LAND USE - EXISTING AND FUTURE Introduction Marco Island was planned and marketed in the 1970's as a residential community with sufficient commercial development to serve the community. That same statement is consistent with the future planning strategies outlined in this plan. Existing Land Use AnaIysis Marco Island is designated as Urban Coastal Fringe which limits its gross density to 4 units per acre according to the Collier County Growth Management Plan. According to the 1990 U.S. Bureau of Census report, the Marco Island Census Designated Place (CDP) had a land area of 7.4 square miles or 4,736 acres. The boundaries of the Marco Island Master Plan include an additional 1,274 acres of land and waterways. Therefore, the total gross acreage within the Marco Island Master Plan boundary is 6,010. Zoning on all properties on Marco Island were evaluated pursuant to the Zoning Re-evaluation Ordinance (ZRO) in 1990 through 1993. Properties were granted an application pursuant to the ZRO because it was found consistently zoned; consistent by policy or deemed to be "improved property" therefore consistent by policy; or rezoned. Table eight displays existing land use acreage. -14- Economic Overview Marco Island is a tourist destination. The island's population more than doubIes during the winter months when seasonal residents return to their winter homes. A majority of the County's hotels and time shares are Iocated on the island. Services associated with both the tourist and seasonal resident population are located on the isIand, along with community services needed to serve the permanent population. Residential It is estimated that there are 8,655 platted single family lots on Marco Island. Forty-five percent of those lots are currently developed. Market conditions have resulted in the deveIopment of high density residential development along the beach front. In 1995, 8,298 condominium/multi-family units were developed on Marco Island. In addition, there are 2,048 time share and hotel units available on the island.

Commercial Commercial development has primarily occurred in four areas of the island. The historic Marco Village, at the northern portion of the island; at the intersection of two major roadways BaId Eagle and North CoIIier Boulevard; at the intersection of San Marco Drive and Barfield; and at the intersection of Winterberry and South CoLlier Boulevard.

Institutional/Government Approximately 170 acres of land on Marco Island house a variety of institutional uses ranging from churches to government. facilitates. There is one elementary school on the island and a County branch of the public library. Recreational The majority of single family lots are located on waterway canals that lead to the Gulf of Mexico and the Ten Thousand Island National Estuary. In addition to the private water access available to many proper~' owners, there is the Tigertaft Regional Park located on the northern portion of the island which is owned and maintained by the County to provide beach access to residents and day visitors. In addition, at the south end of the island a public parking lot and beach access easement is available to the general public. Also at the south end of the island is the Caxambas Pass boat ramp which is a regional facili~' that provides water access and fueling facilities to the general public. There are also 15 acres of neighborhood parks and 38 acres of community parks that provide a range of activities. In addition to public faciIities, 14 acres of beach front property is owned and maintained by the Marco Island Civic Association. Residents of Marco Island are eligible to join the association and use the facility as one of the benefits of membership. Vacant Land The majority of vacant land is designated for low density single family ownership. Twenty-five percent of the Commercial property and thirteen percent of the property zoned for multi-family is vacant. Planning Implications Marco Island's growth and development is limited to the geographic land area that exists. Infrastructure improvements will also be limited due to these constraints. Increasing pedestrian and bicycle facilities and transit will be encouraged to reduce ' ' the ihcrease in vehicular traffic. Mixed Use Commercial Centers will continue to service the majority of residents and visitors needs. The appearance and access to this centers may be improved through design guidelines. Land use Districts specific to the character of Marco Island can reflect the development pattern that currently exists and is expected to continue. FUTURE LAND USE ANALYSIS .Residential Based on the planning study that the Marco Island Vision Planning Advisory Committee conducted in 1995 at the time of buildout there will be 18,271 residential units and 2,04B hotel/time share units on the island for a total of 20,319 residential units. Based on the Urban Coastal Fringe land use designation of a maximum of 4 dwelIing units per acre and the gross land area of 5,928 (6,010 acres minus B2 acres designated as Community Commercial District on the Marco Island Future Land Use Map), a total of 23,712 dwelling units could be permitted. Table ten displays the maximum residential density alIowed based on the Marco Island Future Land Use Map. The table shows that the maximum number of units (20,562) are within the Urban Coastal Fringe allowable maximum density of 23,712 units.

PUBLIC FACILITIES PUBLIC FACILITIES With the continued development of dwelling units and expected population growth on Marco Island it is critical that public facilities be available to accommodate new residents. This section describes the status of existing public facilities and recommended improvements for potable water, sanitary, sewer, traffic circulation, recreation and open space, sheriff, schools, and fire protection. 1. Water and !Nastewater System BackWound: The Florida Legislature created the Marco Water and Sewer District by ordinance in 1977. The district comprises all of Marco Island expect the Old Marco Village. The district covers approximately 10 square miles. The boundaries of the District are graphically depicted on Figure Three. Its ex-officio governing board is the Collier County Board of County Commissioners under Chapter 153, Part II, F.S., the County Water and Sewer District Law. Land Use in the district can general be described as urban. At the time the district was created, two private utility companies were operaling on Marco Island; .X larco Island Utilities and North Marco Utilities. Deltona Corporation, the company developing Marco Island owned and operated the Marco Island Utilities and held a certificate from the PSC to provide water and sewer to Marco Island. In 1989, the utility company was sold to Southern States Utilities, which continues to hold the certificate. North Marco Utilities which provides service to the Old Marco Village area, received certification under grandfather rights to continue operating a water and sewer treatment facility. The County currently has no water facilities in the district. Potable Water Southern States Utilities Southern States Utilities provides water to all of Marco Island as depicted on Figure Four. The water system consists of fresh and brackish water supply, treatment facilities, storage tanks and a transmission and distribution system. The water treatment facilities have a total capacity of 9 MGD consisting of a 5 MGD lime softening plant built in 1980 and the 4 MGD reverse osmosis water treatment plant buiIt in 1991 with CounW industrial bonds. The lime softening plant's source of water is the CoIIier Lake site located off island.

The reverse osmosis plant has the ability to be expanded to 6 MGD. The at-grade storage tanks have the capacity of 6.5 million gallons. The water distribution piping network consists of over 120 miles of 4 inch to 24 inch diameter mains. The Level of Service Standard (LOS) adopted in the Collier County Growth Management Plan is 200 gallons per capita per day (gpcd). SSU estimates a 290 gpcd LOS based on seasonally adjusted population. Another method to estimate actual use is to divide the maximum water usage of 10.3 million gallons per day by the peak 1994 estimated population of 31,791, which would estimate the actual use at 324 gpcd. Table 12 displays actual water demand for 1993 and 1994. Based on the maximum average daily water use of 8.3 million gallons per day the gallons per day per capita would equal 262. Table 13 presents current and future water demand based on the four level of services described above: the adopted LOS of 200 gpcd; the maximum actual use LOS of 324 g-pcd; the average daily use of 262 gpcd; and the seasonally adjusted LOS of 290 gpcd. Figure Three displays the demand vs. capacity of the potable water system. Sou them States Utilities submits concurrency statements to the Collier County Comprehensive Planning Section each time a building permit application is submitted. SSU alIocates 680 gpd of water for each new dwelling uniL Commercial consumption varies depending on type of use and square feel As of December 20, 1995, 61,986 gpd of water are remaining uncommitted capacity, based on design capacity. However, in 1994 there was a deficiency, experienced during peak season. SSU estimates that 50% of total water use is going towards irrigation. In addition to the water use on Marco Island, the Marco Shores development uses water from the same source - Collier Lakes. In 1994, the highest use of water for this development was .251 mgd. At buildout the demand is estimated at .91 mgd. In order to meet the deficiency that currently exists, SSU began a voluntary water conservation program in December 1994 (see Appendix III). They estimate a reduction of 600,000 gpd within the first three years and have a goal of 1 million gallons per day by buildout. Southern States Utilities has plans to expand the Reverse Osmosis (RO) Plant by 1 mgd to increase the plant to a capacity of 5 mgd by the second quarter of 1996. The necessity for a second 1 mgd expansion of the RO plant will be determined based on the outcome of the water conservation efforts ,'rod the progress achieved with the Aquifer Storage and Recovery, (ASR) well. -25- TABLE 12 MARCO ISLAND POTABLE WATER DEMAND R.O.

Seasonally adjusted rate was provided by SSU Source: ColIier County Planning Department, July-95 -2'7 - In order to supplement the water supply, Southern States Utilities has applied for a permit and received a "Notice Of Intent" to issue a permit from Horida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to conduct a study/n 1995/1996 on water storage potential of a Aquifer Storage and Recovery, (ASR) well to enhance the raw water supply for Collier Lakes. Currently reclaimed water is used to irrigate two golf courses: the Marco Island Club and Marco Shores. Reclaimed water is also purchased by the Marco Island Beautification Committee for irrigation of medians. 55U is negotiating an agreement with Hideaway Beach Development to construct a reclaimed water line from the wastewater treatment plant to the development, approximately 4 miles of pipe. It is estimated that approximately 181,000 gpd of reclaimed water will be available for the development. The reclaimed water will be available to other developments along the line after modifications are made to the wastewater treatment facility. A date for those improvements has not been set. In regard to storage capacity, the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA) model potable water element uses a storage LOS standard equal to 50% of the Average Day demand for potable water. Based on this figure the SSU storage capacid' of 6.5 million gallons will be sufficient beyond buildout. South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) is responsible for managing anti regulating water supplies for the Marco Island Master Plan area. SSU's SFWMD Consumptive Use Permit provides for a maximum annual allocation of 2,555 million gallons. Maximum day permitted withdrawal shall not exceed 10.78 mgd. Collier Lake is located off island at SR951 and US41 and supplies 5.3 mgd. The ,?xisting consumptive use permit authorizes a maximum annual allocation of 2,555 million yallons, or 7.0 mgd. The maximum daily withdrawals from the Marco Island lakes are not to exceed 5.3 mgd and the maximum daily withdrawals from the Reverse Osmosis wells are not to exceed 5.4 mgd.. SSU has applied for a modification of the existing permit to add an additional 2.0 to 4.5 mgd, depending on seasonal availabiIi.ty, from shallow wells on the mainland and an additional 2.0 mgct from the RO wellfield locating five new production wells. After treatment, water is distributed through pipes ranging in size from 4 to 24 inches. This distribution system totals approximately 120 miles. Based on an annual growth rate of 1.7%, an average of 675 new residents or 303 new dwelling units are projected each year. Based on SSU calculations of 680 gpd per dwelling unit, an additional 206,040 gpd would be required each year. Based on those figures, current capacid, would be sufficient for approximately 3 months. If the 200 gpcd are used to calculate capaci.ty, an additional 135,000 gpd would be required each year, allowing the current facility to be sufficient for approximately six months. 28 It is the hopes of the community that through the objectives and policies of this plan that the actual water use on Marco Island will be lowered to the adopted LOS of 200 gpcd, through the expansion of the reclaimed water system and conservation efforts. Figure 5 graphically displays potential potable water demand based on actual use of 290 gpd, which is seasonally adjusted, and the adopted LOS of 200 gpd. Planned capacity, which includes expansion to the Reverse Osmosis Plant and water conservation of two million gallons, will assist in maintaining the system. Five .year planning period - Based on an average annual growth rate of 1.7%, the population of Marco Island is projected to increase by 2,796 in the next five years. By 1999, an additional 1,254 dwelling units is esLimated to be built with an average of 2.23 persons per dwelling unit. Based on the current allocation of 680 gpd per dweIling unit, an additional 733,040 gpd would be required over the next five years. If 200 gpcd are used to estimate capacity need over the next five years, 480,800 gpd of additional capacity would be required. Phase I expansion of the Reverse Osmosis Plan has begun and is scheduled for completion in April 1996, providing enough capacity for the next five years. SSU estimates that 15 mgd of water will be needed at buildout. Capital Proiects pIanned within five year plannin~ period: Phase I Expansion of Reverse Osmosis Plant by 1 mgd - 1996 Potential construction of Reclaimed Water Line to Hideaway Beach - 1996 Potential construction of ASR well - 1996 to 1998 The capital projects planned within the next five years will accommodate the projected water demands over the next five years. 29 FIGURE 5 POTABLE WATER Demand vs. Capacity Gallons Per Day (Millions) 15 14 . ..,__ 290 Gallons Per Capita Day Seasonally Adjusted 12 ................................................................

Overview The Marco Water and Sewer District was created by ordinance in 1977. The Collier County Board of Commissioners acts as ex-officio governing board. At the time the district was created, two private utility companies were operating on Marco Island; Marco Island Utilities and North Marco Utilities. Both companies continue to hold a certificate from the Public Service Commission to provide water and sewer to Marco Island. Figure Six displays the service area for each provider. When the Deltona Corporation began planning Marco Island in the 1960's, a comprehensive sewage disposal plan did not exist. Due to the concerns of the Collier County Health Department, Deltona Corporation stated that they intended to sewer the entire island, but would use septic tanks on a temporary basis until it became feasible to install the sewer lines. Effective July 1976 an amendment to Chapter 10D-6 of the Florida Administrative Code stated "On and after January 1, 1977, permits shah not be issued for any urban subdivision until plans, programs, and timetable for development of water and - - sewage systems have been submitted to and accepted by the Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services, Division of Health." Del tona Corporation agreed to sewer areas where a concentration of septic tank systems exceed three per net acre of usable land and/or 50% of the land area in any lift station area. HRS further explained the ruling to mean that urban subdivisions, platted, and recorded, or unrecorded after January 1, 1972 are limited to 50% development on septic tanks if central water is provided. In December of 1982 this rule was repealed. The County initiated the installation of gravity sewer lines in 1979 and 1982. The County purchases treatment for its waste from the private utility for its customers. In 1995, less than half of the island is sewered. There are approximately 2,300 septic tanks on the island. In 1989, the Marco Island Utility was sold to Southem States Ulilities (SSLD. SSU owns and operates the only wastewater treatment plant for the island. In April 1992, the Board of County Commissioners was asked by staff for direction with regard to proceeding with gravity sewer systems on Marco Island, based on the 50% development point. The Board instructed staff to initiate the design program 31 FIGURE 6 F'~' ~ ~'" , . :' vN :- l~' ~ '2- ~-~ _. ' ' - ..... :'/" :: .

In April 1992, Wilson, Miller, Barton & Peek, the engineering firm contracted by the County to act as district engineer for the Marco Water & Sewer District, collected fecal coliform data from sewered and unsewered areas on Marco Island. Several unsewered areas were above the Florida Administrative Code's standards for Class II waters..Appendix XX includes the test results and the collection locations and fecal coliform data. The testing was for fecal coliform, but it was collected at one point in time, and the source of the coliform was not iden~fied. The Department of Environmental Projection (DEP) conducted water quality testing in late 1995 and 1996. The water samples tested passed water quality standards. The test results are included in Appendix XVI. DEP collected samples at the fourteen locations that had previous indications of fecal coIfform bacteria. All DEP test results passed Class II bacteriological water quality standards in effect The Florida Department of Environmental Projection (DEP) has determined that the canals shouId be considered Class II waterways since they are not excluded from the definition found in the Florida Administrative Code Section 62-302.600 (see Appendix IV). In 1994, Wilson, Miller, Barton & Peek reported that five subdivisions on Marco were at, or near, 50% development ( See Appendix XXI). Regulatory Framework The Florida Department of HeaIth and Rehabilitative Services (HRS) is responsible for regulating septic tanks and drain-field installation. These requirements have been adopted by rule in Chapter 10D-6, F.A.C. The Board of Count),, Commissioners also functions as the ex-officio governing board of the Marco Water and Sewer District created under Chapter 153, Part II, F.S., the County Water and Sewer law. In 1985, the County relinquished its rate making and reguIatory oversight of private utilities to the Public Service Commission. On February 27, 1996 the County resumed the regulatory jurisdiction under Chapter 367, F.S.. Whether the County will actually get jurisdiction is pending in the First District Court of Appeals. This issue is not expected to be resolved until at least 1997. The Florida Public Service Commission (PSC) is responsible for regulating the private sector utility companies. PSC's activities focus on the regulation of rates and fees, they also have some jurisdiction with respect to compliance with DEP's rules. 33 Design Capaci_ty of System Existing facilities include a 3.5 milIion gallon per day ('mgd) contact stabilization plant, approximately 9 miles of gravity collection mains, 11 miles of force mains, and 21 lift stations. The coIIection mains consist of 8 - 15 inch diameter PVC and vitrified clay pipe. The force mains range in size from 3 - 16 inches in diameter and are PVC and asbestos cement. Collier County owns and maintains 18.5 miles of gravity main and 4.4 miIes of force main pipes on Marco Island but has no treatment faciIities. Effluent from tl~e treatment facility is pumped to the Marco Island Golf Course and the Nlarco Shores Golf Course (located off island) for spray irrigation. Effluent not used for irrigation is passed through to percolation ponds in the Marco Shores development, located four miles north of the island. The disposal system has a capacity of 2.2 mgd. This wastewater effluent disposal system is not adequate to dispose of the quantity of plant effluent generated at full capacity of the wastewater treatment plant, which is 3.5 mgd. The deep well for brine disposal for the reverse osmosis plant is located adjacent to the ~castewater plant and is used also for disposal of excess wastewater effluent. Construction on the existing plant site will be difficuIt, due to its size and the con/'i~uration of existing facilities, without removal of the older portions of the lime softening treatment process. Effluent is also soId to the Beautification Committee for irrigation of medians. Sludge is hauled from the plant site for land application eIsewhere by contract haulers. Current Demand of the Facili_ty The 1994 Average Daily Demand was 1.8 mgd and the maximum was 2.43 mgd (Table 14). In 1994, there were 12,224 connections (TabIe 15). Based on maximum dem~nd 2.4 mgd and the number of connections, the actual demand in 1994 was 197 gallons per unit. (The Florida Public Service Commission uses a level of service of 2(10 i;allons per unit). Based on an average 2.2.3 persons per household, the actual densand is 88 gallons per capita per day. Buildout requirement based on current maximum demand would be 4 million gallons per day based on the current demand of I97 gallons per day per unit (or 88 gpcd) and assuming aIl dweIIing units were on sewer. _Capacity Analysis The level of service, as defined bv the Collier County Growth Management Plan is 12! ~;allons per capita per day. Based on the historic demand of 88 gpcd and the PSC recommendation of 90 gpcd (200 gallons per unit divided by 2.23 persons per unit), the Marco Island Master Plan has proposed a change to the Level of,Service to 100 gallons per capita per day (gpcd). 34 Based on this new level of service, the wastewater treatment requirement at buildout is estimated at 100 gallons per capita per day x 45,311 population at buildout is equaled to 4.5 mgd, assuming that all dwelling units were on sewers.

SSU allocates 300 gpd of sewer capacity for each new dwelling unit Commercial consumption varies depending on type of use and square feel As of December 20, 1995, 522,644 gpd of sewer capaci,ty is remaining. According to these calculations, there is enough uncommitted capaci,ty for 1,742 new dwelling units. There is a substantial difference between alIocated capaci,ty (3.4 mgd) and actual demand/(2.4 mgd). For, planning purposes, the accepted LOS of 100 gpcd will be used for facili,W planning. 36 Five Year Planning Period Based on the Level of Service of 100 gallons per capita per day and 2.23 persons per household, there would be sufficient capacity for an additional 2,343 dwelling units or an increase in population of 5,226. Based on an annual growth rate of 1.7%, an average of 675 new residents or 303 new dweIling units are projected each year. There would be sufficient capacity for approximately eight years if all new homes built were placed on sewer. Capacity, may be sufficient for longer than six years if development occurs outside sewered areas and septic systems are continued to be installed. There are approximately 1500 vacant lots or approved units that may be built with single family or multi-family dwellings in the currently sewered areas. If all those lots were developed the current capacity of the system would be suffident. The 3.5 mgd contact stabilization plant may need to be expanded to meet buildout capacity of 4.5 mgd based on the 100 gpcd LOS and assuming all units were on sewers. According to SSU there is sufficient Figure Eight displays demand vs. capacity of the wastewater treatment facility taking into account the continued use of septic tank systems and the systems being phased out by 1999. 31 I ,OOO,O00 Ycar 995 21)11|) 2005 20 i 0 201S I00 (;I'CD - - 88 (;I'CD ' ' Fixed Capacity m Current !)eraand (88 GPCD) !00 (GPCD) = ath~pted let,,,/,sfservicc per ,Ih#rco Ishmd Muster i'hm ASStittleS flirtfill .vcplic litilk SI'SIeIIIS rClllllhl; IlO athlilit,tul srslellls t.hlfd (88 Gi'CD) /I.S.~'IIIIR'X .~'f.'t'r hm~k-tll~s ~r ~tll rt'sith'nl.~' I~,'~h,tiu~ in 1999' (.¥.~ 2. Traffic Circulation and Mass Transit In the early 1960's the Deltona Corporation planned the development of Marco Island and established the roadway network. Since then little change has been done to the existing system. Given the limited land area of the island, there is little opportunity to create additional or realigned roadways on the island. All roads on Marco Island are owned and maintained by Collier County. Marco Island experiences a tremendous influx of seasonal population which influences the level of service during peak season. The 1994 April population is estimated at 19,075 and the February population is estimated at 28,612, an increase of 50%. Existing Conditions Roadway Inventory Marco IsIand has 383 roads with a combined total of 127 miles in length. A tabulation of these roads is included in Appendix V. Based on existing traffic patterns and development potential, the main roads are listed in Table 16 and the local collector roads are listed in Table 17. There are 24 miles of roads that function as arteriaIs, collectors, and local collectors on Marco Island (Table 16 and 17). The remaining 91 miles of roads on Marco Island are local community roads where the daily traffic count is not expected to exceed 1000 cars per day (C.P.D.) The typical right of way for the local roads is 60 feet. ' The Collier County Growth Management Plan, Traffic Circulation, Mass Transit, and Aviation Element identifies SR951 from the Marco Island Bridge to CR 92 as a Minor Arterial; and County Road 92 and CR 953 are both identified as Collectors (see Figure Nine) on the Future Traffic Circulation Map. The following road references are given for clarification: SR951 or N.

LOS A: The highest quality of service a particular class of highway can provide. It is a condition of free flow in which there is little or no restriction on speed or maneuverability caused by the presence of other vehicles in the traffic stream. Stopped delay at intersections is minimal. b. LOS B: A zone of stable flow and represenling reasonably unimpeded traffic operations at average travel speeds. The ability to maneuver within the traffic stream ' i~ only slightly restricted and stopped delays are not bothersome. Operating speed is beginning to be restricted by other traffic. Drivers are not generally subjected to appreciable tensions. c. LOS C: S~ll represents stable traffic flow operations, however, the ability to seIect speeds, maneuver and change lanes may be more restricted than in LOS B. Longer queues (~affic lines) and/or adverse signal coordination may contribute to lower average travel speeds. Motorists will experience an appreciable tension while driving. d. LOS D: Approaching unstable flow. Tolerable operating speeds are maintained but are subject to considerable and sudden variations. Freedom to maneuver and driving comfort are low because of increased lane density. The probability of accidents has increased and most drivers consider this level of service undesirable. e. LOS E: The upper limit of LOS E is the capacity of the facility. Operation at this level of service is unstable, and speeds will fluctuate widely from point to point There is little independence of speed selection and maneuverability. Driving comfort is low and accident potential is high. 41 f. LOS F: Describes forced-flow operations and represents traffic flow characterized bv extremely low speeds. Speed and rate of flow are below levels attained in LOS E, and may, for short time periods, drop to zero. Intersection congestion is likely at critical signalized locations, with high approach delays resulting with the queue continuing to grow upstream as long as the arrival rate continues to exceed the discharge rate. To determine Level of Service on Collier County rural and urbanized local roadways, the Growth Management Plan utilizes the Florida Department of Transporta~ion's Generalized Annual Average Daily Volumes for non-state roadways, multi-lane and two lane uninterrupted arterials. The FDOT Generalized Daily Level of Service Maximum Service Volume tables are derived from peak hour, peak direction conditions. More specifically, all the volumes are based .upon the highest 15 minute period of the 10Oth highest volume hour of the y.ear for the higher directional flow of traffic. The daily volumes in the table include directionaI, sub-hourly, hourly, daily, monfl~ly, and seasonal peaking characteristics of traffic. The Countv's Growth Management Plan has established a LOS D as a minimum acceptable level of service standard on existing county roads. This standard includes Marco Island. Level D is to be maintained as measured on a peak season peak hour basis. If the traffic volumes exceed the maximum permitted volumes under LOS D, the roadway is determined to be deficient and operating under unacceptable conditions. Those roads for which a LOS D is to be maintained are permitted to operate at LOS E for a period not to exceed two years. They are then classified as unacceptable. Traffic Counts Appendix VI contains a list of the traffic count stations established on Marco Island in September 1994; a map showing the location of the stations; and the 1994 quarterly and annual traffic counts. Appendix VII contains the 1993 and 1994 Traffic Capacid' Analysis for several of the traffic count stations. The traffic count shown in Appendix VII is the actual cars per day (24 hours- both direction) on that road. These traffic count data were provided by the Collier Counw Transportation Department. The count normally reports either the annual average and/or the seasonal low. Table 18 displays the maximum sen, ice voIumes at given Level of Service for non-state roadways as listed in the Growth Management Plan - Traffic Circulation, Nlass Transit, and Aviation Element for two lane local roads (Signal Group L). .XIarco Island roads would be classified under these standards. Based on this analysis, currently all the roads on Marco Island have not exceed capacid' based on annual traffic counts. Only SR951 from New York Drive (off-island) to the Marco Bridge is operating above capacity. However, this roadway segment is currently being improved. 42 Figure 8 EXISTING TRAFFIC CIRCULATION MAP FACILITY TYPE WESTERN COLLIER COUNTY HENDRY CO. ...................... / . COLJJER CDUNTV.

The CoIIier County Transportation Planning Database Capacity Analysis (Proposed 1995-99 Capital Improvements Element) lists the LOS on these roads as C. During the 1st Quarter of year, with the influx of the seasonal population, roadway volumes increase substantially. The peak traffic season on Marco Island is in February. There is a seasonal drop in population in the last two weeks in March and a build-up the week before Easter and then a sharp drop until the August low. Unfortunately, the 1994 traffic count was taken during this population dip period (March 21 through March 28) and is not exact traffic peak. However, the date (i.e. the March 1994 count) is sufficiently accurate for planning purposes. Based on an annual growth rate of 1.7% in population and the assumption that there is a direct correlation between increased population and traffic voIumes, Table 20 provides the actual peak traffic count in March of 1994 and the projected peak traffic count at buildout for Bald Eagle Drive and Collier Boulevard.

Based on the projections listed in Table 22, Bald Eagle Drive, North of Collier Blvd., will reach capacity sometime before 2005, probabIy by 2004, if measures are not taken to reduce vehicular traffic. Bald Eagle Drive, South of Collier Blvd., is estimated to reach capacity prior to buildout, probably by 2011, if measures are not taken to reduce vehicular traffic. The buildout is estimated to occur in 2016. 46 Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) prepared daily service volumes for State Roads in ColHer County in July 28, 1992 and they are presented in the Traffic Circulation Element of the Growth Management Plan and are listed below: Maximum Service volume at LOS A to I~ Road Segment From T__qo A B _.C __D _E SR951 Marco Bridge CR92 6,500 39,100 43,200 44,800 44,800 The 1994 Annual Average Daily Traffic Counts for this road segment is 20,467 which is below LOS D standards. The road is rated as LOS B in the Collier County Transportation Planning Database Capacity Analysis (Proposed 1995-99 CTE). Assuming a 1.7% annual growth in traffic counts the projected Annual counts for this roadway segment is the following: Collier Blvd. Annual 2000 Annual 2005 Annual 2016 (South of Marco Bridge) 22,645 24,637 29,656 Based on these projections, ColIier BIvd. will not exceed LOS D prior to buildout. Prior to developing a road program for Marco Island, it will be necessary to supplement the documentation of road traffic counts with other input data such as: 1. A traffic analysis of the road system to determine if a redistribution of traffic is - feasibIe and if it would be heIpful. 2. An evaluation of the use of "Traffic Calming" methods such as enforcing speed limits, installing traffic lights, turn lanes or roundabouts. 3. An analysis of each individual arteriaI, colIector, or local road to determine the effects of growth on that particular road. For example, Heathwood Road may experience a larger than average grown in traffic because both the library and Mackle Park are accessed from it. The traffic on Kendall will increase with the completion of Hideaway Beach Planned Unit Development (PUD). The development of the various sections of Marco is not uniform. Some sections are developed and will not be significantly affected by growth, whereas other sections may experience litt/e development and growth will have a significant affect on adiacent road traffic. 4. Traffic volumes that are acceptable to the residents must be established for the months of May through November that will be consistent with 'tolerable traffic' during the peak months of December through April 47 A logical first step in the road program will be to concentrate on the 24 miles of major roads and prepare a conceptual design plan for these roads that wilI incIude bicycle paths and sidewalks, drainage, landscaping, and placement and installation of traffic calming features. Road Improvements: The Florida Department of Transportation's (FDOT) FY1995/1996 Work Program lists several projects for SR951 (Collier Blvd.). From CR92 to north of Marco Bridge a Preliminan,' Design & Environmental (PD&E) Study is scheduled in FDOT Work Prggram for FY94/95 and FY95/96 to evaluate the widening of this facility and the Marco Bridge. Engineering and Design funds for this segment are scheduled for FY96/97 and FY97/98. The widening SR951 from to New York Drive (off island) has begun and the project is scheduled to be completed in December 1999. The Collier Count' Capital Improvement Element lists improvements to Bald Eagle Drive north and south of Collier BIvd., for FY97-98 for a cost of $243,000 for design. The Future Traffic Circulation Map Year 2004 of the Traffic CircuIation Element shows CR 953 or Bald Eagle Drive and CR 92 or San Marco Drive as four-lane facilities (See Figure 10). ROAD MAINTENANCE Two hundred and sixtZ:'-seven (26/") roads, comprising 67 miles of Marco roads have not been resurfaced in over 15 .,,,ears. The majority of these 267 roads were last resurfaced prior to 1977. The Collier Count},' Department of Transportation resurfacing program is currently in progress to resurface all the roads on Marco Island. TRANSIT No transit system currently operates on the island. There is a troIIey that operates a tour service on the island. Day boarding passes are available for $10 and allows the passenger to use the trolley unlimited times during the day. Marco IsIand's mix of land uses, densities, and its proposed high quality bicycle and pedestrian system lends itself to becoming a transit-oriented community. In addition, a high number of day visitors come to the island to visit the beaches and restaurants. Bringing the visitors to the island on a transit system could eliminate a high percentage of on-island cars. Transit has been and can again be an attractive alternative to the car. Today's transit vehicles can accommodate the needs and the environment in which they service 48 Figure 9 FUTURE TRAFFIC CIRCULATION MAP YEAR 2004 WESTERN COtUER COUNTY HENDRY CO. "' ~//~_~.,,,~.~.,,~ COUJER Co. / COt. LIER COUNrY, ~ LC~'IDA ~ including mini-buses decorated with tropical scenes indicative of Marco lsland's vision, trolleys, or water taxis. Clean and attractive vehicles where passengers feel a sense of securi,ty, comfort, and .. 4fe,ty are important to a successful system. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, the planning, location, design, frequency, operation and maintenance of public transit should be to respond to the customers needs. User-oriented transit operates directly between passengers' origins and destinations without transfer, on a convenient scheduIe, in an attractive setting and at a price which is competitive with the automobile. To be successful, it must compete with the automobile in terms of access, convenience, comfort, and feasibility. 3. Recreation and Open Space The N!arco Island Community is serviced by three regional water access park sites, three community parks, and two neighborhood parks as depicted on Figure 11. Table 23 provides an inventory of recreation sites and facilities on Marco Island. The County has developed the following level of service (LOS) standard for communit}., park land: 1.2882 acres of community park land/1000 population* *Population is the estimated permanent population as of October 1 of any given veilr. It is estimated that the 1994 October population figure is 55% of the total population. The LOS for parks is based on single family and multi-family dwelling units only, t-line shares and hotels are not considered. Therefore based on the estimated October 1, 1994 population figure of 15,038, 19.37 acres of community park land would be required. Based on this level of service there is sufficient community park !and available on Marco Island since there are 38 acres of community park land available on Marco Island. At bt~ildout, the October 1 population is estimated at 24,602, 31.69 acres of communit3' park land would be required. There will be sufficienl~ acreage to accommodate the communib:, park standards at buildouL Table 24 displays CommuniW Park Demand. Marco Island experiences a great influx of seasonal residents and tourists to the island. Based on the 1994 peak season population of 31,791, 40.95 acres of community park land would be required. At buildout the total peak population is expected to be 45,311, and based on the current level of service standard of 1.2882 acres of community park land per 1000 population, 58.6 acres of community park land would be required. 50 Due to Marco Island's location on the Gulf of Mexico, 40 acres of regional parks have been developed to provide public access to the beaches and water ways. Regional Parks are designed to provide a varie.ty of recreational activities and serve an area of approximately 60 miles radius. The County has developed the following standard for regional park land: 2.9412 acres of regional park land per 1000 population The County has no adopted standard for neighborhood parks. There are 15 acres of neighborhood parks located on Marco Island. In addition to the County owned faciIities, the Marco Island Civic Association (MICA) owns and maintains the Residents Beach Park and parking area (14.4 acres) and the Residents South Beach parking area (2.1 acres). 51 TABLE 23 Recreational Sites and Facilities Inventory Neighborhood Parks Facilities Acreage Leigh Plummet passive 5 Tommy Barfield adjacent to school 10 tennis, soft bail, playground Total 15 acres Communit-v Parks Frank E.

POLICE PROTECTION Being an unincorporated jurisdiction, police protection is provided by the Collier Counw Sherfff's Department. Marco Island is included in District #6 substation which is located on Marco Island. District #6 includes Marco Island, Goodland Isle of Capri, and a portion along 5R 951. District #6 is staffed by 22 patrol deputies, three community service deputies, one civilian deputy, one property crimes investigator from Criminal Investigations Divisions, and one crime scene investigator from the Bureau of Technical Services, which is shared with Everglades City, District #7. In 1994, District #6 reported 16,155 incidents compared to a County-wide total of 229,485. Out of the reported incidents, 8,772 were issued case numbers compared to the County-wide total of 115,026. 5. FIRE The Marco Island community is served by the Marco Island Fire Control District, an independent fire district. The district's mission is to protect the citizens and their propert}., from destruction by fire, or conflagration, and provide rescue and emergency medical services. In addition to emergency responses, the district provides inspections, education, and investigation services. The district is governed by a three member board of Fire Commissioners. -- Commissioners must live within the Fire District and are elected for a four year term. The Fire Commissioners are supported by a Fire Chief, Assistant Chief, Deputy Chief, clerical staff, Fire Suppression Division and Fire Prevention Division. There are 28 fuII time career firefighters. They are supported by 6 volunteers. The service area encompasses 35 square miles which covers Marco Island and Goodland. There is one fire station which was built in 1992 and is 13,000 square feel In addition, the fire district has a maintenance facility that is 1,643 square feet and a three story training tower. In terms of equipment, there are two engines, one reserve engine, one aerial ladder truck with 100' capacity, 1 quick attack truck, one rescue boat (13 ft. inflatable), one cascade trailer, one prevention and investigation van, and three staff vehicles. The current millage rate is .88 with a cap of 1.0. The 1994-1995 operating budget was $2.2 million. In 1994, the per capita cost of providing fire service was $69.31, based on 100% population figure of 31,847. In the 1992 fire district fire insurance rating 54 was 5 based on a rating scale of I to 10, 1 being the best and 10 being the worse. In 1995, the district has two engines and one ladder truck with one engine in reserves. The current facility is designed for projected build-out demand 6. EDUCATION In 1995, 907 students are estimated to be living on Marco IsIand. The total number of students that reside on Marco Island and attend public .schools is estimated by the Collier County School Board to be 732, as of November 1995. In addition, 164 students who reside on Marco Island attend private school and 11 students are home schooled, according to the Education subcommittee report (see Appendix IX). Therefore, the 1995 total student population is 3.17% of the total February population (28,612). As of 1995, the Collier County School Board operates one elementary School (grades K-5) on Marco Island. The Tommie Barfield Elementary School is a 41,000 sq. foot facility on a 21 acre site. The 1995 maximum enrollment is 500 students. Approximately 391 of the 500 students live on Marco IsIand. In addition to the facility, five portable buildings are being used to accommodate the current student population. A 8,000 sq. foot expansion is being design with construction to begin in 1995/96. The Collier County School Board estimates that the number of eIementary students who will attend public school and reside on Marco Island at buildout will be 542. According to the school board, the Tommie - 'Bar field school has sufficient acreage to expand the facility to prototype size of 830 students grades K-5. The school board owns an 11 acre parcel of vacant land on the island. The School Board at this time has no plans to utilize that site for additional educational facilities. Beginning in the 95/96 school year, middle school students (grades 6-8) who reside on Marco Island will attend Mana tee Middle School or Gulfview Middle School for the Challenge Children Program. As of June 1995, 165 students who reside on Marco Island were enrolled in middle school. High school students (grades 9-12) who reside on Marco Island attend Lely High School. As of June 1995, 176 students who reside on Marco Island were enrolled in high school. Both middle schools and the high school are located off island. The student population on Marco IsIand has been constant for the past five years as displayed on Table 25. Between 1991-1994 there were 285 live births recorded as residing on Marco Island. At buildout it is estimated that the student population, that resides on Marco Island, will increase by 30 percent (Table 26). 55 In 1990, the City of Naples, the Collier County School Board, and the County Commission adopted Resolution 90444 for joint use of recreational faciIities in order to provide a framework for notification, proper review of capital improvements, maintenance responsibilities and identification of operating expenses. This agreement makes available to both parties each entity's facilities and programs for school and community activities. The School Board is primarily responsible for the coordi nation.

The Seminole Electric Coop has the responsibility of meeting the energy requirements of Lee County Electric Coop. Marco IsIand is served by a single 138 kv. transmission line that begins at Lee County Electric Coop Belle Meade Substation. The substation is located south of U.S. 41 and west of Route 951. This line serves two Lee County Electric Coop substations. Lee County Electric Coop forecasts an annual energy growth of 1.7% in the northern portion of the Island 2.3% in the southern portion of the Island. According to Lee County Electric Coop, the capacity of the current transmission line will not meet the energy demands of Marco Island at buildout. The line is rated at 59 Million Volt Amps (M.V.A.) for 8 hours. The peak in August, 1994 was 48 M.V.A. Using the Ioad forecast the maximum capacity of the tra_ns. nission line will be reached in 2007. The August peak in 2000 is estimated at 53 M.V.A. 57 The capacity of the substations is adequate to meet buildout requirements. The most immediate need for the electrical system is to determine the level of service desired. Lee County Electric has been requested to: (1) Prepare a cost-benefit analysis for improved system reliability. (2) Prepare an analysis of the recovery, ability of the system during and after a hurricane. All areas in Lee County served by Lee County Electric are served by a single line system with a common rate structure for all its service area. This system makes it difficult to upgrade Marco's level of service (i.e., increased system reHability) without doing the same for all areas. The physical location of the line (through a wetland, mangrove area) makes it difficult and costly to maintain. This Iocation, among other factors, may influence Lee County Electric to move this line to SR-951 earlier than planned. However, it will not be before the completion of SR-951 widening. When the line is moved, it will probably be sized to accommodate buildout. Marco IsIand's eIectric system will be improved by this new Line design and location as accessibility and reliability will increase. F. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS Many of the infrastructure elements are interreIated. The coordination between these -- elements, the sequence of initiation, and completion of the work will have a significant affect on cost and the timely completion of the program. Those elements that are interrelated and where proper sequencing is necessary are listed below. 1. THE SIZE AND ROUTE OF THE 2 MILLION GALLONS PER DAY RECLAIMED WATER LINE. Preliminary plans have been completed for the installation of a reclaimed water line along Collier Boulevard with an extension to the Hideaway Beach PUD. This line when completed will displace a demand for potable water of approximately 850,000 gallon per day. A study is needed to expand the reclaimed water usage (in addition to the 850,000 gallons per day) by approximateIy 1.2 million gallons per day. This usage will require connections to approximately 3,000 (equivalent) dwelling units. Considerable savings could be obtained if these additionaI connections were a continuation from the line under consideration and the work was performed at the same time. The study should show the most practical and cost effective size and route for the 2 million gallons per day line and the practicality of integration with the line under consideration. This reclaimed water line should be installed prior to completion of modifications to roads that will be effected by the line. Two million gallons per day is the best estimate Coy the Vision Planning Committee) of the reclaimed water that would be available "year roundn from the waste water treatment plant. THE SIZE AND ROUTE OF THE SEWER COLLECTION LINES. The hotels and condominiums along Collier Boulevard, the Hideaway Beach PUD, Old Marco and a large share of the island east of Bald Eagle Drive and north of Route 92 are connected to the sewage treatment plant. If water quality tests determine a concern, and if the residents of Marco Island desire central sewers, a study will be made on the most practical way to extend the sewer collection lines to provide service for the entire island. This study should utilize the work already completed by the county (Wilson, Miller, Barton & Peek contract) and show the size and routing of the additional lines needed. The excavation for the sewer collection lines should be coordinated with the installation of the reclaimed water line. These lines should be installed prior to the completion of the modifications to the roads that will be affected. 3. THE SIZE AND LOCATION OF SUB-SURFACE COMPONENTS OF THE DRAINAGE SYSTEM. A layout should be made showing routing and excavation requirements. These improvements should be installed prior to the completion of modifications to the affected roads. 4. THE WIDTH AND CHARACTERISTICS OF MAJOR ROADS. A conceptual design/streetscape pIan should be made of each of the roads identified on the Marco Island Traffic Circulation Plan. The results of this plan will show, among other things, the width and characteristics of the roads. 5. INTERRELATION OF ROAD RELATED INFRASTRUCTURE ELEMENTS. The studies on the reclaimed water line, the sewer collection lines, the drainage system, the - road characteristics, the bike paths and pedestrian walkways will be evaluated and integrated into a composite that shows the specific relationships to each other, for the 24 miles of roads listed in the Traffic Circulation Plan. A drawing will be made, based on this composite, for each of the 10 roads in the Plan. This drawing will show the relationship of all elements applicabIe to that particular road. 6. PRIORITIES. It is not practical to work on all the roads at the same time. The work shouId be packaged, i.e., the road modification, the sewer line, the reclaimed water line, the drainage, etc., and grouped into phases. The conceptual design/streetscape plan will confirm the appropriate phasing but preliminary review suggest the following phases: a) Bald Eagle, Collier and Barfield. These three roads have the highest priority and there is an existing sewer line along these roads. b) Elkcam, Kendall, Tigertail, S. Hernando, Yellowbird and Heathwood. c) Winterberry, San Marco and Landmark. The Marco Island Planning Review and Coordination Advisory Committee will assist the Count), in developing the scope of the studies and obtaining public consensus before implementation. 59 Nv~. all the infrastructure elements are interrelated to road modification. The program for these activities can proceed in parallel with the road program. Land procurement for parks, community and cultural facilities, etc., can and should be pursued in paralIel with oLher activities. Table 29 contains a list of all projects identified in this Plan. G.

DATED: February 14, 1995 ATTEST: DOA~D OF COUNTY DWIGHT..Ey ~ROCK, CLERK COi.~IER COUNTY, FLORIDA BY: ' ""'~ ,,. /Approved as'Co ~orm and legal sufficiency: -7- APPENDIX II DETAILED POPULATION STUDY FOR MARCO ISLAND -8- POPULATION OF MARCO I2LAND An analysis was made of the following data to estimate the peak and minimum population of Marco Island. 1. 1990 census data. 2. Demographic and economic profile of Collier County, dated September 1993. 3. Collier County buildout study, dated March 1994. 4. Published data in newspapers and magazine articles. 5. Surveys made by the Marco Island Vision Planning Committee. A common problem in reviewing published data was the lack of definition of population. For example, it does not distinguish between peak, average, minimum, property owner only or property owner and renters. In addition, there was little or no description of the methodology used to generate the data. The Vision Planning Committee conducted a census in August, 1994, to determine, among other things, the population during this month and to establish an occupancy factor for August. The August 1994 census conducted by the Vision Planning Committee was taken in three parts, i.e., single family dwellings, the condominiums, and the hotels and time sharing units. Based on the August 1994 census, the number of people in single family dwellings in August 1994 was 3,054; the number of people in hotel and time sharing units was 2,407~ the number of people in condominium units was 4,172. The total number of Marco Island residents according to the Vision Planning Committee census in August 1994 was 9,633. The number of occupants per unit (August) was 2.2. The Vision Planning Committee conducted a second census in February 1995. Based on the results of this census the number of people in single family homes was S,172. The number of people in condominiums and time sharing units was 16,289 and the number of people in hotels was 2,486, and miscellaneous was 309. The total number of Island residents according to the February 1995 census was 27,256. The February census data revealed 2.24 persons per dwelling unit. The detailed data supporting the summary results (above) will be included in the Master Plan section entitle "Support Documents". The problem with using census data to determine population is that it will always provide a low number (to actual). The method of collecting these data (in this case by telephone calls) was that if there were no answer to the call, it was assumed no one was in residence. It is quite likely that in many cases where there was no answer, the occupants were shopping, golfing, fishing, away for a few days, etc.. -9- A more accurate method to estimate population is to determine the average occupants per dwelling and multiply this number times the number of dwellings. The problem with this methodology is that an assumption must be made on what percentage of the time the occupants are in residence. This is especially significant on Marco where the number of residents is sharply related to the season. The number of dwelling units and the number of occupants per dwelling can be determined with reasonable accuracy. The Vision Planning Committee has established the number of dwelling units on Marco Island as of November 1994 and at buildout. These data are considered to be very reliable and can be verified from several sources. The number of persons per dwelling units from several sources compare quite closely. For example: the census data prepared for St. Mark's Church dated February 13, 1991, indicates an average of 2.28 persons per dwelling unit. The Deltona buildout report used 2.2 persons per dwelling unit. (These data were prepared for Deltona by Candeub, Fleissig & Associates). The August 1994 census taken by the Vision Planning Committee indicated 2.2 persons per dwelling. The February 1995 census taken by the Vision Planning Committee indicated 2.24 persons per dwelling unit. There is some justification to a slightly higher number of occupants per unit in the winter months than that used for July and August. This is the time of year where friends, relatives and grandchildren are visiting. In all likelihood the number of persons per dwelling unit will increase as Marco approaches buildout. This expected increase is based on the fact that future development of Marco Island will be principally in single family dwellings. The best data available on occupancy rate, versus time of year, is shown on Table 1. These data indicate that the seasonal peak occurs in February and that 95% of the units are occupied. This data was provided by the Marco Island Post Office and is based on mail delivery. The two censuses taken by the Vision Planning Committee indicate that the August population is 9,633/27,256) 35% of the February population. An analysis of seasonal trends in population from sources such as newspapers delivered and water usage is shown in Figure 1. The high water consumption during the off season is due to the fact that families leave the lawn sprinkler system on when they leave the island for the summer. Whereas, there are no other specific numbers available to verify these data, other sources from the business community, such as condominiums and hotel managers, Chamber of Commerce data, etc., support the shape of these data. -10- The population estimates of Marco Island based on the number of dwelling units, the number of persons per dwelling unit (see Table 1) are as follows: 1) The peak population in February 1994, using this methodology, is estimated to be (14,066 x 2.23) = 31,367. 2) The August 1994 population using the above methodology, is estimated at 40% (see Table 1) of the peak population (40% x 31,367 = 12,546). The Vision Planning Committee census data indicated the Marco population was 9,633 in August 1994. 3) The peak population in February 1995, using the above methodology, would be (14,256 x 2.23) = 31,791. The Vision Planning Committee census data indicated the February 1995 population at 27,256. 4) The peak population at buildout using the above methodology would be (20,319 x 2.23) - 45,311. Population in this report is defined as the occupants of all the dwelling units, hotels and time sharing. This included renters, owners and guests. It does not include off-Island workers, service personnel, shoppers, sightseers, daily visitors, etc.. The total number of people on Marco Island that would be utilizing the Island infrastructure could be as high as 45,000 in February, March and April of 1995. The population at peak and at minimum is shown to provide planning flexibility. For example, certain infrastructure items, such as - -water, sewer and power, must be provided for the peak population. The minimum (or more likely the average) population can be used to evaluate "cost versus wants" in areas such as libraries and public services. The population data included in "The Demographic & Economic Profile of Collier County" dated September 1993 and "The Collier County Buildout Study" dated March 1994, cannot be compared directly with the population data generated by the Vision Planning Committee. The Collier County data does not include the occupancy in hotel and time sharing units (2048 units) and is based on the residents present during the low point of the season. The Marco Island population as determined by multiplying the dwelling units times the number of persons per unit is the most accurate data available and should be used for planning purposes. The peak and low population using this methodology is shown on Table 2 from 1994 through buildout. An assumption was made in estimating the "August 10w" shown on Table 1. It was assumed that e the 40% August occupancy rate would slowly increase with development to 55% at buildout. -11- The census data prepared for St. Mark's Church, dated February 1991 indicated that 81% of the units surveyed were occupied by the ovner and that 19% were occupied by rentere. Information prepared by the Marco Island Association of Realtors in June 1994, estimated that approximately 2,300 of the 13,000 units (total dwelling units - hotels) were listed with the Realtors as rental property. It is estimated that 500 property owners may rent directly. These data indicate rentals represent 21% of the total. Hotel occupancy is approximately 13% of the total. The population make up of Marco Island in February 1994 is estimated to be composed of 66% property owners, and 34% rentere and hotel guests. This highlights the need for a consistent definition of population. FUM~ER.OF DWELLING UNITS ON MARCO ISLAND AND ESTIMATED TIME OF An analysis was made of the following data to determine the number of dwelling units on Marco Island (i.e. bridge to bridge, excluding Goodland). 1. Demographic and economic profile of Collier County - September 1993. 2. Collier County urban area buildout study - March 1994. 3. Collier County tax appraiser data. 4. Billing and connection data from Lee County Electric. 5. Data from Marco Island Chamber of Commerce. 6. Data from Collier County Board of Realtors. 7. Aerial photographs and land use maps provided by the Collier County staff. 8. Surveys made by the Marco Island Planning Committee. 9. Deltona Density Study - Dated July 1973. 10. Connection Data provided by Southern States Utilities ~m~er Of Dwel~inq U~ts as of ~o~e~lbe;-1994 The number of dwelling units on Marco Island from four (4) different sources is shown on Table #1. The number of units include single family dwellings, multi-family dwellings, condominium units, hotel, motel and time sharing units. The number of dwelling units shown on Table I from the Collier County Urban Area Buildout Study dated March 1994 for the Marco Planning Community is 13,804 for April 19, 1992 and 25,877 for buildout. The definition of the Marco Planning Community used in the County Buildout Study includes four Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs -157, 158, 161, & 168) that are not included in the Marco Island Master Plan boundaries. In addition, only a portion of TAZ 179 is included in this study. Subtracting the dwelling units for these TAZ areas results in a dwelling unit count of 12,100 for April 1992 and a projection of 18,711 units at buildout. If the Buildout Study is updated to include 1993 and 1994 Certificates of Occupancies issued during that period, the 1994 total would be 12,364 dwelling units. This number does not include time share units. SSU estimate of the number of living units on Marco as of October 31, 1994, was 14,834. The Vision Planning Advisory Committee prepared a list of condominiums, time share and hotel units with the number of dwellings per unit as of November 1994. These data are shown in attachment #1 and #2. A comparison was made between the Vision Planning Advisory Committee data and the data listed in the Collier County Tax Appraiser's office report. The results of this comparison are as follows: The Vision Planning Advisory Committee reports 118 condominiums listed on attachment #2 with 8,109 dwelling units. "Time share" condominium units with 746 units are shown separately on attachment #1 (along with hotel units) and are not included in attachment #2. The Vision Planning Advisory Committee estimates the total number of condominiums and ~ime share units at 8,855. The County Tax Appraiser's data uses a land use code system to classify different land uses. Under Land Use Code #4- Condominiums, both residential and commercial condominiums, and time share units are included in this Land Use Code. The 1994 Tax Appraiser's data base lists 9,069 condominium units. Within that total 190 are commercial condominiums and 746 are time share units. Subtracting the 190 units brings the total of residential condominium units and time shares to 8879. Therefore when compared on the same base, the property appraiser's residential condominium and time sharing units of 8,879 -- -compares closely with the Vision Planning Committee's number of 8,855 time sharing and condominium units (a difference of .27%). When the number of condominiums, time sharing and hotel units are "backed out" of the total unit numbers provided by Lee County Electric Co-op and SSU, the single family and multi-family dwelling units check closely with the units shown in the November 1994 Tax Appraiser's data. The number of hotel units were provided by the hotel operators. Demographic data is dynamic. New units are being added continuously and development will continue through build out. When one set of number of dwelling units are compared with another, the comparison. must be made based on the same geographical area, the same scope (i.e. single family dwelling, condominium, hotels, etc.) and the same data. When the dwelling unit data from Lee County Electric, SSU, and the County Tax Appraiser's office, The Collier County Buildout Study, and the Vision Planning Committee's independent study are adjusted, the same geographical area (Marco bridge to -13- Bridge) the same data (November 1994) and the same scope (i.e. Single family dwelling, multi-family dwelling, condominiums, time sharing, and hotels) the number of dwelling units on Marco as of November 1994 from each of these sources compare very closely. There are two reliable methods of estimating dwelling units on Marco Island. The first method is to document the units as was done on Attachment #1 and Attachment #2, and update these data annually. The second is to use the County Tax Appraiser's data even though it is not formatted for detailed planning purposes. The Collier County Tax Appraiser data is recommended as the planning base, because, it can be readily "sorted" in detail, be easily reconstructed and updated annually. A breakdown of the existing dwelling units on Marco Island and the projections for buildout are shown on Table 2. This information, also shows the number of vacant lots. The information on Table 2 under column "1/94 and 11/94" was taken directly from the Collier County Tax Appraiser's office print out with the following two exceptions. The number of hotel units are those received from the hotels (the Tax Appraiser's data does not provide the number of hotel rooms). The additional condominium units and multi-family dwelling units were estimated by the Vision Planning Committee as described under "Projected Dwelling Units at Buildout." pROJECTED DWELLING UNITS AT BUILDOUT '- 'Single-family dwelling units at buildout were determined by using County Tax Appraiser's records of 3,910 units as of Nov. 1994 and adding the 4,745 vacant lots shown on the Tax Appraiser's books that are zoned for single-family dwellings. The results is 8,655 single-family dwelling units at buildout. Multi-family dwelling units at buildout were determined by using County Tax Appraiser records of existing units as of Nov. 1994 and estimating the number that could De added between Nov. 1994 and buildout by multiplying the acres of vacant property zoned for multi-family dwelling by the number of units per acre allowed by zoning. This calculation estimates 643 multi-family dwelling units at buildout. Condominium units at buildout were determined by using County Tax Appraiser's records of existing condominium units as of Nov. 1994 and adding the number of units that could be constructed between Nov. 1994 and buildout. As of November 1994, 578 units of the Point Marco PUD and 83 units of the Hideaway Beach PUD were incomplete. The Delta Park Place with 53 units is in the planning stage. There is one parcel of vacant land between the Club Regency and Eagles Nest zoned as RT with 16 units per acre for mulit-family or 26 units per acre for hotels permitted. There is one vacant -14 - parcel of land between Caxambus Towers and Ships Landing zoned (Grandfathered) as RMF-16. It is estimated that a total of 93 units could be constructed on these two sites that could be classified as condominiums. This analysis indicates a maximum of 807 condominium units could be added between 1994 and buildout for a total of 8,940. Adding the 746 time share units, brings the total of condominiums and time share units to 9,686. The total dwelling units on Marco Island at buildout is estimated to be 20,319. Deltona's density study prepared in July 1973 estimated that "if all the lots listed on Marco were developed, the number of dwelling units at buildout would be 22,762." The vacant acreage and the zoning (units/acre) used in estimating dwelling units at buildout are included in the land use section of this report. The close correlation of data from several reliable, but different, sources provides confidence that the number of dwelling units shown for November 1994 and at buildout are sufficiently accurate for planning purposes. TIME OF BUILDOUT The approach used to estimate the rate of growth between 1994 and buildout was as follows: An analysis was made of the construction permits issued between 1984 - 1992. This analysis provided an arithmetic 'a~erage of 523 permits issued per year. Assuming that each permit issued resulted in the construction of a units and that this average prevailed, buildout would occur on Marco in the year 2007. These data are shown in Column 3 of Table 3. The construction permit data showed a sharp decrease in the number of permits issued from 1990 to 1993, indicating a much slower growth than the average over the prior years. The average number of permits issued from 1990 through 1993, was 155 annually (see Table 4). Assuming growth continued at this pace, buildout would occur on Marco Island in 2030. These data are shown in column 1 on Table 3. Load demand projections (provided by Lee County Electric) indicates the growth on Marco between 1990 - 1994 was between 1.7 - 2%. Lee County Electric growth rate projections for the future assume this rate of growth. Assuming a 1.7% rate of growth continued, buildout would occur on Marco in 2017. It is unrealistic to assume growth will continue at the same rate as the early development of Marco. Therefore, buildout will occur later than 2007. It is probably too conservative to plan buildout based on the average of 155 units a year. In 1994, 193 construction permits were issued. It can be safely assumed that buildout will occur prior to 2035. -15- There are many factors, beyond a planner control, that will effect the rate of growth on Marco Island. The information available indicates that "effective" buildout will occur somewhere between 2010 and 2017. The initial phase of the infrastructure plan will assume that buildout will occur in 2017. It is important to note, the following factors in analyzing buildout; the development of condominiums on Marco Island is essentially complete. As of November 1994, there were 8,879 condominium and time share units plus 165 multi-family/co-op units as compared to 3,910 single family units. At buildout there will be 9,684 condominium and time share units as compared to 8,655 single family units. The principal development on Marco Island from 1995 to Buildout will be in single family dwelling units. This influx of single family dwelling units could change the need for goods and services and create a desire for a different life style as development moves closer to buildout. -16- TABLE 1 DWELLING U~=TS ON MARCO ISLAND SOURC~ NUMBER OF UNITS DATE Collisr County Tax Collector's Office 14,344 January 1994 Tax Collector's Office 14,446 November 1994 Lee Co~z~ty Zlectric, 13,804 AugT/st 1992 14,864 FebTuary 1993 13,935 Augl/st 1993 14,023 Februar~ 1994 Collier County ~UILDOUT Study** 13,804 March 1992 Southern States Utilities 14,834 Oct. 30, 1994 _ ., - These data are based on billing tnformatlon from Lee County Electric for multi-family dwellings, condom~niums and single family dwellings on Marco - bridge to bridge, excluding Goodland.

Source: Marco Island Vision Planning Advisory Committee, 1995 Seasonalit~ Determining seasonal population on Marco Island is difficult due to the lack of available data. Although vacancy rates can be obtained from Hotel and motel establishments, vacancy rates in single family and multi-family establishments are not available. In order to approximate the seasonal influx of residents other factors were considered including home delivery of newspapers, sales of newspapers from individual newspaper boxes, and water usage. These three sources were found to be the most reliable. Telephone and cable hook-ups were not found to be reliable in showing influx of residents since it has become . more economical to maintain telephone and cable service throughout the year regardless of occupancy. Table 5 displays the actual and average uses per month of the three sources and Figure 11 graphically displays the data. This information can help to establish a trend in population changes over a twelve month period. Combined with information from the U.S. Census Bureau and the telephone census taken in February and August by the Vision Planning Advisory Committee a pattern of population changes can be established and used as a planning tool. . -31- MONTHLY DEKAND FOR NEWSPAPERS AND WATER USAGE Newspapers Newspapers Water Month Delivered Sold ]J~ AveraGe January 83% 81% 91% 85% February 98% 98% 95% 97% March 100% 100% 100% 100% April 89% 73% 95% 85% May 65% 47% 93% 69% June 52% 38% 78% 56% July 44% 38% 65% 49% August 41% 36% 70% 49% September 41% 36% 59% 45% October 46% 39% 72% 52% November 64% 60% 93% 73% December 70% 58% 93% 73% Source: Newspaper Date - Naples Daily News, Circulation Department Water Usage - Southern States Utilities -32- FIGURE 11 Seasonal Population Trends Monthly Trends in Population O0 % .... 90% ................................... 80% .................. -'- - , , , - - +Newspapers 70% - - Der, ered 60% ................................. 50% ............ : .... , . .. ,~ ........ 40% .... 30% ......... 20% ....

The August study was done in three parts: an opinion survey and demographic study of single family residencesr a simplified demographic study of condomin~ums; and a count occupancy rates for hotels and time-share units. SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE STUDY Approximately 150 volunteer callers asked residents a series of questions regarding their opinions on Marco Island's current physical infrastructure, possible additions and changes to the infrastructure and demographics. (See Growth Management Public Opinion and Census Questions, Attachment A). Telephone numbers to be called were divided into the 9 Traffic Analysis Zones on Marco in order _variations in opinions and demographics exist between the zones. Out of 3,007 homes called, 1,072 or 35.6% were reached. Chart A shows the results for the questions asked about the current infrastructure. 84.8% of the respondents feel fire, EMS, and sheriff services are good to excellent; 84.0% feel parks and recreation are good to excellent; and 78.0% believe the appearance of our neighborhoods and business districts are good to excellent. However 63.6% feel the ability of Marco Island's roads to handle traffic is just fair or unsatisfactory. Over half, 51.1%, feel that road maintenance is only fair or unsatisfactory, and 48.8% feel drainage around their homes is fair or unsatisfactory. Chart B shows the percent responding either excellent or good by zone; the mean excellent plus good response for all zones; the range in responses for the zones; and additional items volunteered by the respondents. Charts C and D show similar data for the potential future infrastructure. 78.8% feel that more interconnected bike paths and interconnected sidewalks are either very important or important. 50.5% feel that some form of public transportation, such as mini-buses or trolleys, is very important, and 49.3% feel additional cultural amenities, such as community theater or an art gallery is very important or important. 40.8% feel there should be some means of limiting access to the island by non-residents, such as toll bridges. The demographic responses revealed the following for the month of August 1994: 1.92.4% of the people responding in August own their home on Marco Island. 2. There is an average of 2.2 persons per single family residence, for a total of 3,054. 3. The average time lived on Marco is 8.4 years. 4.8.5% work off the island full time. 5. The age group distribution is: years 0-6 7.-1! 52-18 Ove~ 18 5.1% 3.9% 4.3% 86.7% CONDOMINIUMS An occupancy count only was collected for the condominiums by the Association of Condo Owners in conjunction with the condo managers. 1,731 people were reported living in 3,748 condo units. Extrapolating that data to the 9,050 condo units on Marco Island results in an estimated 4,172 people living in condos during the month of August. ~OTELS AND TIME-SHARES The 3 hotels and 10 time-shares on Marco reported a mean occupancy rate of 53.9% for the 2,028 units resulting in an estimated 1,094 people in occupancy. ~UGUST POPULATION SUMMARY Single family residences 3,054 Condominiums 4,172 Hotels and time-shares 9,407 Est. total population 9,633 FEBRUARY CENSUS/SURVEY A second census/survey is scheduled for February 1995 and will extend and supplement the data gathered in the August 19.94 study. Since the August census/survey shows there is little difference between the Traffic Analysis Zones insolaf as residents opinions and demographics are concerned, the February census/survey will be conducted in much the same way but without the breakout of the information by zone.

FEBRUARY 1995 TELEPHONE CENSUS CONDUCTED BY: MARCO ISLAND VISION PLANNING ADVISORY COMMITTEE -34- MARCO ISLAND VISION PLANNING ADVISORY COMMITTEE FEBRUARY 1995 OPINION AND DEMOGRAPHIC SURVEY 1. GENERAL TIle February 1995 survey of Marco Island's population is the second of two surveys conducted to determine residents' opinions about the quality of the current infrastructure and possible changes in the infrastructure as the i-~land grows to buildout, as well as certain demographic data. The first survey was conducted in August 1994 and was designed to measure the residents' opinions and demographics when the island's population was at its lowest point. The February survey was designed to gather data when the population was at its maximum. As in tile August survey, the Febn~ary study was made up of three pans: a telephone survey of a random sample of residents; a study of the number of condomi~tium units occupied and the number of people occupying the units; and the percent hotel and timeshare units occupied. The opittion data froln the survey is being used to set priorities and .. goals for the Master Plan being developed for Marco Island. TIle demographic data is being used to develop current and future population estimates for traffic planning, water qttantity requirements, ftm~re school and libraries needs, as well as in other elements of the plan. 2. TELEPHONE SURVEY A random sample of 1,863 single-family and multi-family residences were called. Both homeowners and tenters were included in the study· It was calculated that if 500 contacts were made in which an occupant other than a guest answered the phone and responded to the questions, ~e sample would provide the desired level of statistical accuracy. 898 responding contacts were lnade. TIle responses were summarized separately for homeowners and tenters and then file two combined to d~velop a composite response profile. 667 homeowners contacts and 231 tenter contacts were made for a total of 898 contacts. Attachment I is a copy of the official telephone survey questionnaire. Attachments 2, 3 and 4 are detailed sunm~aries of file residents' responses. 2.1 CURRENT INFRASTRUCTURE RespondeI~ts were asked to rate statements regarding the island as it exists today as either excellent, good, fair, poor or they had no opinion. The questions had to do with: the appearance of the island's neighborhoods and business districts, the quality of road maintenance, the ability of Marco's roads to handle traffic during peak-season, the adequacy of drainage around homes, the frequency of mowing e. mpty lots, the enforcement of zoning laws, and parks and recreauonal facilities. Table 1 is a graphic iljustration of the responses separated between homeowners, rentera and homeowners and rentera combined. Following is a summary of the percentages of combined ~or and fair (P/F) responses versus combined good and excellent (G/E) responses.

Homeowners responses to all other questions were ~plit fairly even between poor and fair ',:ersus good and excellent. Except for lot mowing, renters' perceptions of the other elements of the island infi'astmcture were more favorable than the homeowners. 3. POSSIBLE CHANGES IN THE INFRASTRUCTURE Respondents were asked to tell the caller whether he or she felt certain potential changes in Marco's infrastructure were excellent, good, fair, poor or they had no opinion. The uestions had to do with the possible development of: some form o~public transportation on Marco, such a-~ mini-buses or trolleys, interconnected sidewalks and bike paths, toll bridges similar to the one on Sanibel and additiontl activities for children. Table 2 graphically ilh~strates the responses. 2. Following is a summary of the percentages of combined poor and fair (P/F) responses versus combined good and excellent (G/E) responses.

A majority, albeit a small majority, of homeowners felt toll stations at the bridges is a good idea. More rentera thought it was a poor or fair idea good or excellent. ,1. DEMOGRAPHICS 4.1 Following is a summa~' of the demographic data obtained from the telephone sus'ey respondents. TIle type of home in which one tenter respondent was living, i.e. multi-fa~nily or single family residence, was not recorded, resulting in 897 responses to tile question versus the total number ' 6f aoi~tacts made of 898.

SSU's Commitment to Florida's Water Policy Florida's State Water Policy encourages utilities to 'champion and develop sound water conservation practices and public information programs' and 'to advocate and direct the reuse of reclaimed water as an integral part of water management programs, rules, and plans consistent with protection of the public health and surface and Found water quality.' Southern States Utilities (SSLD is committed to a stewardship role in supporting the State's water policy by developing and implementing environmentalIy and ecologieally responsible water management programs throughout its service area. SSU presently operates in 26 Florida counties, providing water and wastewater services to more than 160,000 customers. A consistent proponent of water management measures, the Company forrealized its efforts in 1994 by developing a comprehensive program designed to convince customers to embrace water conservation practices as permanent lifestyle measures. A key element of this statewide effort is a customized program developed specifically for Marco Island. B. The Aquifer System The Floridan aquifer system of underground reservoirs supplies 80 percent of the State's fresh water. The aquifer depends on rainfall and runoff water as a means to recharge or replenish the -- w'ater table. In recent years, however, this level has dropped to a point that water management officials feel is unacceptable for several reasons. Florida is bordered by saIt water and there is a major concern that intrusion could cause the aquifer to become bracldsh especially in coastal areas. Long-term projections suggest that the aquifer may not be able to meet increasing demands created by future development, tourism, industry and agriculture. The aquifer is pan of a delicate ecological system, the balance of which could become seriously destabilLz. ed if consumption is not reduced. The water table problem is already resuIting in shortages in many parts of the State where the reservoirs are being drawn upon at a rate much greater than in any other part of Florida. One such area is Marco Island in Collier County. I~aFco lsLar~ Wa~tr Conserva:ion Plan Decembtr. 1994 II. BACKGROUND A. Water ~Lnd Marco Island Southern States Utilities has provided water service to Marco Island since 1989 and in early 1994, provided quality potable water to approximately 10,900 permanent residents and a total of 32,700 people during the peak season. The Company owns and operates two water treatment facilities located at separate sites on the Island. The facilities include a five million gallon per day lime softening water treatment plant (WTP) and a four million gallon per day reverse osmosis water treatment plant. SSU also operates a 3.5 mgd wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) that provides reclaimed water for reuse. Potable water is used for household applications as well as for general irrigation with only a few exceptions. The Island's reclaimed water appIications are presently limited to two golf courses and medians. A recent analysis by SSU of water use panems revealed higher per capita consumption on Marco Island comparecl to Collier County and water management flistrict standards. The per capita consumption for Marco Island for the year ending 1994 based on a seasonally adjusted population of 22,200 people is 288 gallons per capita per day (gpcd). Since 1990, the per capita consumption has fluctuated between 269 and 29I gallons per capita per flay. At present, Marco Island consumption exceeds the Collier County minimum level of sen'ice standard for Marco Island. In accordance with the 1992 Collier Count}' Growth Management Plan, the level of service standard for potable water for Marco Island is 200 -- .gpcd. The water management districts are currently implementing legislation to reduce per capita water consumption throughout the state. Marco Island's water supply is regulated by the South Florida Water Management District (SFW'MD). The current rules of the SBVMD limit per capita water use to 200 gallons a day, on an average, seasonally adjusted population basis. The SFW'MD has had a number of conservation requirements in place since JanuaD', 1993. Marco Island residents should be encouraged to reduce consumption levels through voluntan.' conservation measures. To iljustrate the point, if per capita consumption were at a level of 200 g'pcd, current consumption could be reduced by more than 1.9 million gallons per day. The following statistics indicate that the bulk of the high volume consumption is occurring in irrigation. In accordance with SSU's year-to:date 1994 customer consumption data and assuming 100 gallons per person per day typical household use, residential irrigation is estimated to account for 45 to 72 percent of total residential consumption depending on the time of year. Residential demand peaked in May and was at its lowest level in July. On an average 2 Marco Bland Water Conservation Plan Dectmber. 1~)4 annual basis, residential irrigation is estimated to account for approximately 63 percent of the total residential consumption. · Irrigation for commercial and multi-family dwellings accounted for 35 to 45 percent of the total commercial and multi-family consumption depending on the time of year during 1994. The commercial/multi-family demand peaked in March and was at its lowest level in September. On an average annual basis, commercial/multi-family irrigation demand accounted for approximately 42 percent of the total commercial/multi-family demand. In total, for 1994, irrigation is estimated to account for approximately 53 percent of the total average annual demand. B. The Capacity Issue The total capacity of SSU's water plants on Marco Island is 9 million gallons per day' (mgd). Average demand on the plant was 6.3 mgd year to date for 1994. However, in March I994, water demand reached a peak maximum daily level of 10.3 mgd. The plant was able to augment capacity by tapping into available storage. If peak demand is not reduced, however, it has the potential to exceed the capacity of the SSU water supply system, resulting in shortages and inconvenience to residents and visitors in the form of reduced water pressure. In the short term, the Company will pursue irrigation demand management alternatives. The real reduction must come from the total population of consumers on Marco Island through a concerted water conservation effort. 'CZ' The Long-Term Outlook Having an adequate water supply will be crucial to the Island's growth and economic potential. The Island has been designated by the South Florida Water Management District as a 'Critical Water Supply Problem Area." This means it is likely to experience critical water supply pr. oblems in the next 20 years unless permanent conservation measures are adopted. Irrigation is a major contributor to this situation. Recent development projections indicate that by 2020, when the Island is expected to be built to capacid', there will be approximately 21,455 housing units on Marco Island compared to some I4,852 as of May 1994. The growth will be primarily in single-family residences with some increase in condominium/multi-family units. No additional hotel or timeshare units are projected. This added development has the potentia. l to create a severe demand not only on the aquifer, but also on the capacity of the water system serving the Island. Moderating irrigation requirements that draw on potable water resources will be central to the successful development of the Island in the years ahead. 3 MorcO Islam Wottr Consin,orion Plon Dtctmbtro I~4 ! III. THE PLAN The intent of the Marco Island Water Conservation Plan is to expand previous efforts in concert with the stated goals of the SFWMD, the Collier County Growth Management Plan, and the Marco Island Vision Planning Committee. The proposed SSU program is comprehensive and voluntary. It is designed to result in permanent water conservation practices that will afford long-term benefits versus temporary impact. At the core of the program will be Demand Management which is defined as "reducing the demand for water through activities that alter water use practices, improve efficiency in water use, reduce losses of water, reduce waste of water, alter land management practices, and/or alter !and uses.' The program designed for Marco Island focuses on two categories of water consumers:' (I) The General Population and (2) High Volume Users. General Population refers to seasonal and permanent residents, as well as visitors to the Island. High Volume Users refer to those customers with monthly consumption rates that exceed I00,000 gallons. The channels used to reach consumers in the General Population and High Volume User categories include Conservation Education, Economic Incentives and Enforcement Opportunities with Education comprising the major thrust of the effort. _ . AJ General Population The general population effort will include four of six water consumption classifications used by SSU. The four classifications are Residential, General Service, Multi-Family and Irrigation. Raw water and Fire Protection cIassifications will not be monitored due to their specialized user groups. In 1994, the Residential classification accounted for 50 percent of total consumption on Marco Island. General Service followed next with 14 percent, Multi-Family with 15 percent and Irrigation with 21 percent. Other uses accounted for the remaining two percent. By definition: · Residential includes both single-family homes and those multi-unit complexes which meter each unit individually rather than having a master meter for the complex. · General Service includes commercial establishments including hotels. 4 I Marco l~larut Water Con~t~.ation P~an Dectmber. 1994 Multi-Family includes high-rise condominiums which have one or a number of master meters that meter the ent~e complex rather than individually metered ur~ts. Irrigation includes most condominiums and apartment complexes having irrigation meters sepa~te from their potable water meters us~ for in-home water needs. 1. Conservation Education Through a comprehensive edu, "ion program, SSU hopes to instill a greater understanding of conse~'ation measures and meu~ods. The goal is for consumers to embrace conservation as a life style practice. Additionally, through education, it is hoped that consumers will ,,,.'illingly install low-volume conservation devices, systems or fixtures that permanently reduce internal household water use and external irrigation requirements. Open Houses - SSU will host open houses at its water treatment facility in an effort to educate target groups about the technology and challenges associated with water management. Speakers Bureau -- Since 1991 more than 50 water related presentations have been made within Collier County. SSU will modi~' existing conservation, reuse and xeriscape presentations to reflect specific issues on Marco Island. Selected mailings will invite key orgapjzations and groups to provide forums for SSU speakers. Trolley Signage -- The trolley, which is higl'~y visible to the general public, will be used by SSU to communicate key messages from January through June to support conservation -- - efforts. Conser,'ation Seminars -- SSU will host at least t~'o general conservation seminars to introduce target groups to conservation methods and measures. These will be coordinated with the South Florida Water Management District, the Collier Soil and Water Conservation District. the USDA, and the Collier Count' Extension Service. Xeriscape Workshops -- Xeriscape is a landscaping method that maxhnizes the conservation of water by the use of site-appropriate plants and an efficient watering system. In cooperation with water management district programs and the Collier County Extension Service. and certified/licensed irrigation professionals, the Company will also sponsor one hands-on workshop featuring xeriscape landscaping practices and plants. It will include the use of moisture sensing devices. In 1992 SSU hosted a workshop on Marco Island on how to develop and implement a conservation landscape. The program created a unique opportunity for hands-on researchers, planters, maintenance landscapers, evaluators, and presenters. Such programs were designed to give volunteers the opportunity to experiment and examine the best methods to create a drought-resistant landscape in and for their community, around schools. libraries, etc. 5 Marco Island Water Consen.ation Plan December. 1994 Newspaper Advertising -- Newspaper advertising will be used to continuously reach Marco Island audiences about the critical need to protect and manage water resources. Customer Bulletins -- Since 199I a customer newsletter has been mailed quarterly to approximately 7,000 Marco Island customers as well as government officials and Florida newspapers. The WaterWorks bulletins will continue to emphasize conservation and water- related issues. Two bulletins will be developed to address issues specific to Marco Island. These will be mailed to Marco Island customers and made available to the general public. Consen'ation Newsletter -- In 1994, SSU began issuing 'Conservation,' a special customer newsletter focused on conservation. The newsletter will continue to be mailed on a regular basis to Marco Island customers. Education Materials -- Materials, brochures, booklets, videos, etc. on conservation and Florida's water supplies are continually being researched, developed, purchased and requested. Materials will be provided to Marco Island residents through the customer sen'ice office, through mail-outs, and as handouts at open houses and presentations. They also will be made available through public sources, libraries and schools. Feature Articles -- SSU will provide feature stories and photograph)' to local newspapers. The articles will feature examples of water management efforts or will iljustrate trend/use panems with the intent to encourage the adoption of water management practices. Educational Videos - Educational videos will continue to be made available flee of charge __ to key organizations, schools and associations. These will include the following, as well as others available through the water management district. "Save Our Water" -- An educational music video for children, features Florida fifth and sixth graders talking about the importance of natural water systems. Through words and music, they increase their understanding of Florida's aquifers, rivers, lakes and wetlands. The video introduces students to various water resources and helps them identif?' ways to reduce pollution while motivating them to use water wisely. 'Water For Florida's Future" -- A 30-minute video directed at adult audiences, discusses Florida's future water supply, increasing regulations designed to protect that supply, how water utilities meet those regulatory requirements, and how utilities file for rate relief. Water experts featured in the video include Lou Kavoras, Southwest Florida Water Management District and State Representative R.Z. Sa~ey. Bill Inserts -- In addition, as needed. bill inserts will be used to alert all Marco Island customers to local water restrictions, new regulations, and new conservation literature. 6 ;,farco Islam Water Conservation Plan December. 1994 ' Recognition Program -- SSU will develop a "Partners in Conservation" program with the local Chamber of Commerce in order to recognize special conservation efforts by individuals, hotels, and condo associations and management companies. Media Backgrounders -- SSU will develop educational media materials consisting of information on Florida's water issues. This packet will include Marco Island materials and statistics and will be made available to media serving the Marco Island community. Stickers - SSU will develop stickers encouraging water conservation that can be applied to vehicles, windows, on kiosks and handed to public. Publications - SSU will develop a general water management brochure for the general public that will include tips and information on water conservation, reuse and xeriscape. This brochure will be made available to all customers and offered through other public outlets. ' Exhibit - An exhibit of conservation mateddais will be placed in the Marco Island office for public viewing by residents. Special Events -- SSU will underwrite special programs that focus on conservation. These public forums are designed to increase general awareness of SSU's efforts. An existing example is the annual holiday float. School Programs -- SSU will promote water management education in locaI schools through ._ Contests, speakers, videos and other channels that will also encourage involvement by parents and the local community. In addition, the Company will sponsor field trips to educate children about conservation practices. 2. Economic Incentives The economic benefits of conservation will be stressed in publications, news items and at public forums. Water- and cost-saving retrofit devices will continue to be promoted to the general population and will be made available through SSU's Marco Island office at cost to customers. Information relating to the use and installation of such devices will be included as part of the communications campaign. Retrofit devices are already in place at some locations. Condominiums: In March 1994, SSU implemented a pilot retrofit program on Marco Island for permanent residents. By August, four condominiums consisting of 884 units received an SSU retrofit kit free of charge. Each kit contained a Iow-flow shower head, kitchen and bathroom aerators and a toilet tank bank. Southseas West also requested retrofit kits for its 431 units. Those should be shipped by year-end 1994. 7 Marco Bland Water Conservation Plan Oeceraber, 199# A sugary of the installations and requests for the condominiurns on Marco is as follows: ~ondominium Name Number of Uni~ Number of Kits pate Received Sadcastle I 94 188 3/94 Sandcastle II 94 188 3/94 Southseas NW 431 862 8194 Gulfview 265 530 3194 Subtotal 884 1,768 Southseas West 431 862 On order The total number of kits after fullfiling Southseas West will bring the figure to 2,630 installed in 1994 in 1,315 housing units. . iPerrr!..anent ~e~idenB: Earlier in the year, SSU also offered free units to all permanent residents of Marco Island. As a result of a special mailing of complimentary devices, approximately 645 single-family homes received retrofit devices. SSU is in the process of compiling lists from those two distribution campaigns and will follow up with subscribers to determine the impact of the devices on their water use and on their overall conservation efforts. The estimated savings from these devices is based on the following assumptions: ESTI~IATED SAVlh'GS Estimated water savings per device: Showerhead: 3 gpm Bathroom Aerator: 1 gpm Toilet Bag: 0.5 gallons/flush · For a typical household assume: Single-family house - 2.5 people/household Multi-family/hoteI units - 2 people/household Assume average usage per person per day: Toilet - 5 flushes/day Bazhroom f2uccl ,- 4 mL-,_,_,r,L'~day Shower, 7,~ mlnuggs/dey 8 Marco Bland g'a~er Cortservarion Plan December, 1994 The estimated water savings per home is provided as Table 1. Table 1 Estimated Water Savings from Retrofit Devices Per Household Per Day Single-family Toilet 6 gpd 'Fa'u t' Shower 56 gpd Total 72 gpd/home Multi-family Toilet 5 gpd Faucet 8 gpd Shower 45 gpd Total 58 gpd/unit Assuming that 60% of the homes that received retrofit kits in 1994 are using them, an estimated water savings of 59,000 ~d may be realized by year end 1994. The retrofit program will continue to be offered for interested customers. The Marco Office will have an available supply of kits that will be sold at the company's cost of $6 each. Assuming that 1,000 kits are purchased each year in order to retrofit 500 housing units each year and that 60% of those that purchase the devices continue to use them, the following annual water savings are estimated: 9 Marco Islam Water Conservation Plan December, 1994 150 single-family homes ] 11,000 150 multi-family/hotel units 9,000 Total I [ 20,000 ! In future years, approximately 250 housing units per year are assumed to be re;.ro~rted. Reference Table 2 of Section IV for the estimated water savings. 3. Enforcement OppOrtunities Related to the education program will be an effort to educate consumers regarding existing and pending legislation or regulations that address or promote conservation. Every effort will be made to encourage compliance as a matter of good citizenship, community spirit, and environmental responsibility. -- A~ area that offers significant water conservation potential is irrigation. Voluntary water demand management schedules will be promoted for homeowners seeking to modify their lawn watering practices. This voluntary promotion will be used until more permanent measures can be implemented. The plan is that SSU, in cooperation with Collier County and the South Horida Water Management District, will implement temporary water restrictions on Marco Island beginsting in 3'anuar2,.', 1995. SSU will request the same restrictions imposed on Marco from April, 1989 tltrough August, 1992 in accordance with County Ordinance No. 89-80. The restrictions allowed lawn irrigation on different times and days of the week depending on both address location and even/odd numbering. The Island was segregated into three areas, each of which may water on the days specified at the time specified (either I0:00 pm to 2:00 am or 2:00 am or 6:00 am). These water restrictions should assist in'driving down consumption during the periods of greatest demand on the system. 10 Marco Islam Water Conservation Plan December. 1994 (See Attachment A - Zone WatcHrig Plan) In terms of other codes or ordinances, SSU will seek avenues to promote conservation through plumbing, constraction, permitting, Xeficape or landscape management ordinances. These are longer-term goals that will require cooperation from state agencies, professional organizations, manufacturers, and acceptance by developers and other related groups. B. High Volume Users High volume users will be a major focus of the conservation plan. As stated earlier. high- volume users, both multi-family and residential, are those who consume in excess of 100,0013 gallons per month. In 1994, when the peak maximum daily demand occurred in March, a review of customer usage showed that 100 irrigation customers, and 46 residential customers, recorded demands in excess of 100,000 gaIlons pet month. In addition, 478 residential customers recorded demands in excess of 50,000 gallons per month. In July, 1994, when the monthly demand was at its lowest level, 60 irrigation customers and 18 residential customers recorded demands in excess of 100,000 gaI!ons per month. Elements of the High Volume User program will include a literature and information program, consumption audits, and promotion of rain sensor installations. 1. Conservation Education ' 'Br[~ctiures -- SSU will develop a brochure designed to address the High Volume Water User on Marco Island. This piece will be mailed or hand-delivered to this target group. Workshops -- The Company also will conduct high volume water user workshops in cooperation with state, local and regional agencies to address questions and concerns about irrigation, water management techniques, xeriscape, etc. Conservation Devices -- As indicated earlier, some 78 customers during July, 1994 had monthly consumption levels of I00,000 gallons or greater. In March, 1994 - at peak demand time - 146 customers had monthly consumption leveIs of I00,000 gallons or greater. SSU will aggressively promote the use of rain/moisture detecting devices and low flow toilets among high volume water users such as hotels, condo associations and private residences. The Marriott hotel recently installed nine moisture sensing devices on their irrigation system. In addition. SSU has contacted a local supplier of the Mini-Clik II rain sensor to get the locations of residences who have installed the devices. SSU will track irrigation use for these customers in order to estimate the water savings on Marco using these devices. 11 Marco Island Water Comerration Plan December. 1994 Assuming that 50 high volume users participate in the moisture detection device rebate program and 50 high volume users participate in the low flow toilet robale program in 1995. the expected savings begirming in the year 1996 is calculated as follows: Total No. l[/r,h Voha~e ToLd No. Hjgb Users ParUdpatlAg ln'iptlon Mob'rare Device Sattogs O 37.5 Par~i~[[nfi~ · . (Gfl./Day) CommcrciaJ h'rigadon II II Only one low-flow toilet and one moisture detection device rebate will be offered per customer. For the high volume multi-family complexes with multipie irrigation clocks. it is assumed that the customer will purchase the additional moisture detection devices required to effect the entire irrigation system. 2. Economic Incentiv~ .. Water conservation specialists, operating out of SSU's Marco Island office. will coordinate and promote a free audit program to those consumers qualifying as High Volume Users. Based on a list provided by 5SU, they will send a letter to targeted high volume consumers inviting them to schedule an appointment for a comprehensive water management audit. Each audit will evaluate use panems, landscaping and irrigation practices. etc. Through an analysis of the results, the 5513' representative will recommend improvements that will include recommended conservation practices, recalibration of existing irrigation systems. as well as installation of conservation devices if indicated. These representatives ,,,.'ill provide high volume customers with a list of approved landscaping and lawn management specialists who are licensed installers of sensor devices and who are also able to provide additional assistance with irrigation system calibration and Xe~scape. It is assumed that if the high volume user audits are conducted beginning in January, 1995. that 25 % of the total savings may be realized i.h time for the peak demand expected in March. 1995. Assuming an additional 50 high volume customers install moisture detection devices in 1996. 12 Marco lxland Water Coraervation Plan December. 1994 and an additional 100 high volume customers installed low flow toilets in 1996, an additional 72,050 gallons per day may be saved by early I997. As an incentive to participate, high volume users who are among the first to schedule audits and implement recommendations will receive certificates for special rebates. SSU will also investigate future billing programs that can accommodate installment payments for such devices. 3. Enforcement Opportunities Moisture detection devices are requixed to be installed on all automatic sprinkler systems for new residential, commercial, and industrial developments in accordance with the Collier County Land Development Code; however, enforcement of this ordinance is not certain. The moisture detection devices override the sprialder activation mechanism during periods of increased rainfall. Depending on rainfall mounts and watering patterns, a savings of 5 to 25 percent of the total irrigation demand for each installation can be expected. Of the current 1994 average customer demand of 6.3 mgd stated earlier, approximately 3.3 mgd is expected to result from irrigation. In 1995, the average demand is expected to be 6.9 mgd, of which irrigation is expected to be approximately 3.6 mgd. The expected increase in irrigation demand from 1994 to 1995 of 0.3 mgd may be curtailed by the installation of moisture sensing devices. In 1996, the average demand is expected to be 7.1 mgd, of which irrigation is expected to be approximately 3.8 mgd. .. Assuming that 50 percent of all new construction has moisture detection devices, the water savings would equate to a range of 7,500 to 37,500 gallons per day for 1995. For 1996, the savings would range from 12,500 to 62,500. An average savings of 15 percent was used to estLmate water savings for moisture detecting devices. It is assumed that 25% of the 1995 savings may be realized in time for the peak demand expected in March, 1995. Note: For general consumers who are not among the existing or potential high volume user targets, local publicity and work. shops will address the advisability of water sensor installation. C. Reuse Applications SSU has delivered reclaimed water for irrigation since 1972 and presently has seven reclaimed water systems in operation across the state. The Marco Island reclaimed water system is one of the Company's largest systems. 1. Existing Reuse on Marco Island 5SU provides reuse on Marco Island by irrigating golf courses and medians using reclaimed water from the 3.5 mgd Marco Island wastewater treatment. plant (WWTP). 13 Marco Islam Water Con~e~.ation Plan December, 1994 The Marco Island Country Club accepts reclaimed water on an as-needed basis. In the event that less reclaimed water is generated by the WWTP than required by the golf course, SSU can supplement the supply with raw water. The Marco Shores Golf Course accepts reclaimed water to the golf course on an as- needed basis. SSU also provides reclaimed water to R&B Lawn Services on an u-needed basis. The reclaimed water is used to irrigate roadway medians along CoIlier Boulevard and South Barfield Drive. On a yearly average, existing reclaimed water usage to the golf courses and for median irrigation accounts for approximately 22 percent of the total flow leaving the plant. During the late Spring, however, this usage may rise to nearly 50 percent of the total. The 1993 total annual rouse for the Marco Island WWTP via golf courses and median irrigation was approximately.142 million gallons. 2. Proposed Rouse On Marco Island SSU is also assessing implementation and feasibility of future reclaimed water projects. SSU is presently negotiating a contract with the local school board to provide reclaimed water for irrigation of the Barfield School property. The reclaimed water will enter the school grounds through a buried pipeline and will be distributed throughout the site by the school's re-pump station which consists of pumps, a wet well and other controls. The pumping facility will be owned and maintained by the school board. It is estimated that the school site will use approximately 20,000 gpd of reclaimed water. SSU is also assessing implementation of a reclaimed water main extending south from the Wx, VTP along Collier Boulex'ard and west to Hideaway Beach. The analysis indicates that there exists a demand of approximately 1 mgd of reclaimed water for irrigation use at the hotels and condominiums along the entire length of Collier Boulevard and near Hideaway Beach. A customer survey has been completed to confirm the needed reclaimed water irrigation quantities. A survey of the main route (along Collier Boulevard) was also conducted to determine the construction feasibility (space availability) for the proposed main. The results indicate that construction of the entire main will be expensive due to the constraints imposed by the existing utilities and building densities adjacent to the route. In all likelihood, the first phase of the rouse main would serve Hideaway Beach and Collier Boulevard down to the Marriott hotel. The annual average demand expected for this portion of the rouse main is 620,000 14 'l M~:rco Islam Water Co~ervation Plan December, 1994 gallops per day with an anticipated maximum daily demand of 853,000 gallons per day. If a detailed financial and rate analysis of this phase of the main proves cost-effective for the Marco Island customers, the main may be implemented in future years and will help to reduce demands above and beyond those indicated by conservation efforts. 15 IMarco Islam Water Conservation Plan December, 1994 IV. OBJECTIVES AND RESULTS As stated earlier in the presentation, four consumption classifications will be targeted, as well as high volume water users consuming in excess of 100,000 gallons per month. By encouraging use of conservation measures, more efficient irrigation practices, and added reuse, SSU hopes to reduce overall consumption and to improve water conservation practices throughout the Marco Island community. A. The Goals In summary, through the programs described herein, SSU expects to reduce overall demand on the system by approximately 500,000 gallons per day by the beginning of 1997. This will cause the daily average per capita consumption to drop from a projected 312 gpcd in 1997 to 288 g'pcd in 1997. If the Collier Boulevard reuse main is implemented in later years, per capita consumption may drop to a projected 275 gpcd. ' Ultimately, SSU would hope to encourage Marco Island residents and visitors to reduce consumption to a level comparable to other service areas in Florida and to a point that falls within the guidelines established by the South Florida Water Management District and the Collier County Growth Management Plan (200 gpcd). Future phases of the program will be structured toward achieving this goal. Water savings have been estimated for each element of the plan for the next three years. Table 2 summarizes the estimated water savings. B. Monitoring and Measuring ' I~esults of the conservation efforts will be tracked through meter readings that compare month to month, year to year consumption before and after the conservation program is launched. Usage among key consumption classifications will be monitored on a monthly basis and compared to historical use panems. In addition, a survey will taken among Marco IsIand customers to determine if their overall conser,'ation practices have changed. An initial conservation practices survey was conducted in August i994, the results of which will be compared to the follow up survey. C. ProFess Reports A quarterly progress report will be issued to detail the actions taken and the results of the program's implementation. The report will be shared with SSU Management and key local organizations on Marco Island. 16 T~hle 2 Moisture IIl~h VDh~me l~mnnd Totnl~ ~'enr ~ml I~teclinn RetrnGI WMer ,er~eltl ~h~l ~t~nnRcn~cnl I~vlce~' I~vlcr~ Redttcllnn Itene~clnl ~en~e , 1994 5.5~ 59,~ 0 0 O 64.5~ 1995 21 1996 7~.2~ 20.~ 250.~ 486.5~ ]nslall~ on new construction ~r C~llier Counly ordinance.

Approximately 35 percent of the costs will be applied in 1994. 2) Audit Program -- If a consultant were hired to coordinate the High Volume Water Audit program, the expected fee including expenses to conduct 150 audits is $30,000. 3) Moisture Detection Devices -- In order to encourage the installation of moisture detection devices, SSU will provide 550 gift certificates to the first 50 customers who provide proof of installation of a device. 18 Marco Island Water Conservation Plan December, 1994 4) Retrofit Devices -- 2,000 retrofit kits were recently ordered at a cost of $6.00. SSU is also providing 832 kits free of charge to the Southseas West Condominium as they were ordered during our free give-away program in the spring. 3,000 retrofit kits were purchased for the free give-away program. The 2,000 kits, which have been upgraded, wLII be available at the Marco Island Customer Services Office at cost, $6 each. 5) Retrofit Survey - If a follow-up report and second survey are initiated in conjunction with the retrofit program, the anticipated cost would be $8,000 for processing and preparing the analysis. 6) Low Flow Toilet Rebate -- In order to encourage the installation of low flow toilets, SSU will provide SICK} rebates to the first 50 customers who provide proof of the toilet type an installation. 7) Outside Sen'ices -- SSU maintains a temporary employee on staff to as~;ist with implementztion of the Marco Island Conservation Plan. 8) Labor -- Several flail-time SSU employees assist part-time with implementation of the Marco Island Conservation Plan. B. Benefit Analysis The benefits to SSU include: _ . · Reduced pressure on the system's capacity during peak periods. · Reduced overall demand. · Postponement of capacity-related capital project requests for t~'o years. Improved relationships with water monitoring agencies. Public recognition as a conservation- and consurer-oriented company. The disadvantages to SSU include: Extended revenue loss due to permanent conservation measures (retrofit devices and rain sensors). Initial public perception that SSU is not equipped to service demand (this wiIl be countered by education and communication). The benefits to the cornmunity include: Continued water service without interruption. · No fines or long-term restrictions. Improved environmental responsibility and stewardship. · No excessive rate increases near term. 19 Marco Islam Water Conservation Plan December, 1994 ( The disadvantages to the community include: Some minor irritation to consumers who are not conservation-minded. · Some irritation if water restrictions are implemented. · Some irritation to consumers or tourists who do not perceive the problem. 20 Marco Islam Water Conservation Plan December. 1994 VI. 13,IPLEMENTATION TIMETABLE The proposed timing of the conservation activities during the 1994/1995 peak season is presented as Table 4. 21 Marco !mifiemcntntiot~ I ) Walcr Restrictions hnlficmcnt Restrictions 2) Chtistm~ Parade Float I'mgram Kickuff O~n Ilouse Trolley Signage Xcris~a~ Workshops I l igh-Volumo User WotRshops Ncwspa~r Advcnising S~cial Marco Bullctin WatcrWorks Bullctins Consedation Ncwslcltcr Feature Articles Education~ Vidcos Bill In~ns/S~ial Mailings Recognition Program Mcdia Backgroundcrs i ..o,e 4 Marco Island Conservation Activity hnplenlentalion Timetable l',,blicaduns {' ; '; ; ; Sch~,l Programs [ iligb Volumc Uscr Publication Rclront Devices { ; ; ; S~cial Rebate Offers ~w Flow Toilets S~ial Rebate Offers Moisture Dctcction Dcvicu ' 3) I!igh Volume User Audils · !!ire Auditor Condue{ Audits { ; ; ; 4) Rcusc Bartidal ~h~l Calllet RIVal_ · hnplcmcntation pcnding smdics.

Ouestion · l)ccxxsent the current status of the beach renourtsrmen~ prograB. Hov is it funded, Banaged and vhat are the needs? Current ststus l '/'he leach Rsnourlshsent Committee is about to build three offshore structures at the south end of the beach. AlthOugh the busch kss gained sand to~slly ·inca rsnourislmen~, erosion st the south beech is rxcessive sad ss per original plan thes· structures should halt or st least retard erosion. There is · possibility trmt these structures viII incrssss the natural rsnouzlshssnt oZ the beech. ~ beech renourishssnt yes paid for by · $5 sillion bond issue ·old in Key 1919 sad is being repaid by beechfront sad Rldssvsy property mmsrs through sn additional .9 sill per yssr of sd vapors· tax. There is sn adequate escro~ fund to pay for the cost o~ the three off-shore structures referenced above. IiADL2I~i~Lt The beech pro~act is Banaged by the nine member Xarco Island Beech Rsnourishssnt Advisory Conittss subject to the authority of the Board of County Comsissioners. ' ~sbds t ILncs ltsrco pays spproxiBately 401 of the county Tourist Development Council (TDC) money (>$3,000,000/ysar county-vide), the Island should receive Tourist Dsvelolment Council, funds to help dsZrs the cost of beech cleaning, raking, Baintsnance, and patrolling. The beech is Xsrco,s savor tourisc attraction. TourlaB brings $1S,000,000,000/yssr t~ Florid· sad beeches srs the pries attraction. Quest/on I 14kat is the current access to the beeches sad ho~ srs they controlled? This should include ho~el sad condcminius access? The scosss st Tigertail busch is controlled by the county ss is the South Beech access st 2vsllov Avenue. The Residents' Beach st San Xsrco Road is controlled by IGCA. There srs £our hotels, 27 sondos/aim {plus four sore under construction), four time shares, ell vith beach scosss controlled by private ovnsrship. Additional beach scoess vie voluntary donation or sale vas tried in 1989. The 2~sts DleR issued · report on beech access (P.

JOmt Is ssxlmm potsntla~by expanding existing parkin9 areas. Condominiuss and betels hays a to~sl of 7~784 parking spaces7 ~mplstion of Caps Nsrco rill add approximately 1,200 more spaces. ~bs Residents' BosCh has 360 spaces and Tigertail Beach has 211 spaces, The South baCh viII have 140 parking spaces; 70 o vhiCh are under the Jurisdiction of the county and ?0 of ~hich are under JaCA.

How should they be ~snged? · ~LIIA/3Sa~ All beaCh ordinances should be rayloved. T~o ones vs Best often et cosplaints on are baCh Littering, Poise Control, J~3es]~ed VehiCle Access, baCh Blockage, Clear Passage for bergency Vehicles end Pedestrians and baCh Vendor Clutter. ~ The baCh Vendor ordinance should be modified so that the vendors are responsible for the cleanliness of their areas and pay a fair share of beaCh cleaning and maintenance cos~s. Records show that baCh Vendor profits are substantial7 the present fee of $250/yssr is ~o~ · fair share of beech costs. lessons should be designated the authority to inspect the vendors, lettel the beech, sad have enforcessat povsrs over the public sad the vendors. ~uostion I How rill the beaches be affected by buildout (an Increase of mote thsn 30% in population}? The beaCh access and perking are adequate for a buildout of Marco but rill no~ support the population expansion from Lely and the other proposed developments along 951 souL~ of US 41. ~usstion s wast should be done to preserve the beach for the best balanced interest and pleasure of the propsr~:y ovaors? A recreational baCh Managesent Plan needs to be put in place, Banaged by the local baCh Advisory Commit~:ee. Almost all other beeChfront coBsunities in Florida have such a plan, but the Marco Island baCh Advisory Cossittse has not been able to get a plan implemented by the State/County. -S3 - eurre:~ s££ortJ off t3ss ]florida Osme Commission to eonverg Tlgsztsil Psxt ~ s ~sl~ b~~~~ ~ ~lnly Is s ~~ ~1 . ~ ~l~ ~ ~ Zsls~ Rspox~ s~sd by Chsrlss ]lutCLr~es: snd rrsnk Slsxr, hard 10/94 sdlX4S21 COLLIER COUNTY GOVERNMENT OFFICE OF CAPITAL PROJECTS MANAGEMENT .BEACHFRONT · MANAGEMENT PLAN · FOR MARCO ISLAND 2ZAaFRONT X~~ PLAN XXRCO 12IA~, COLMEt ~e 17, 1986, ~e ~a~ oZ C~y C~lssione~ added ~~nce No. 26-31 ~ea~i~ ~ establishing ~e ~rco ~a~ ~~is~nt and ~lic ~ccess ~icipal rt~~~, ~~td s~ pr~s~ion a~ for ~lic ~ ~s ~a~es ~ ~o Isla~ and to do all ~in~s reas~ly ~essa~ in ~e~i~ ~er~i~ · ~~~ly~ ~ ~~r 23, 1986, the ~a~ o~ C~y ~lssi~ers added ~l~nce lsls~ bach bn~ris~en~ Advise sssis~ ~o ~s~ of C~n y Cmis~oners in cs~in~ ~llier ~ty Office of Capital ~o~e~s ~g~n~.

Hallinger, Chair ' Sub-Comsittee on Library Service Date: Nay 26, 1995 Subject: Final report · . As promised here is 8 report on the pro:Jected future of library service on Marco Island. I viii discuss the actual building, future staffing, volunteers, electronic data needs, library card holders, types and amounts of materials held, sad anticipated growth of circulation of materials, It is most important that everyone realize that this branch must grey in physical size in order to accommodate not only increasing usage, but also the need to provide space for electronic dill equipment. I sm aware that some members of the Vision CamsaZtec believe that electronic data and its dispersion is the wave of the future. That is undoubtedly correct. But it is necessary to recognize that public libraries serve multifunctions. Not only are they involved with providing information end,education, but they ere also involved in providing recreational meter/sis. It viII be Bony years, if ever, before Ksrco Island citizens are vii ling to give up books, periodicals, and sadievisual _ materials end this report reflects that fact. The public library eL the 1990s is driven by two goals: providing recreational reading meterSol and preySdin9/nfGrmation. The strain of trying to excel in beth areas results in neither goal being completely fulliliad. Neither the recreational readers nor the info..~mation seekers are being e fully served by the public librsrl's present funding Ievel. As quoted in the ABeTiCOn Library Assoc/atlon's Library Advocacy Novl packet o "Americans check out s,. average of six books a year and spend an average of $1So73 s year in taxes for public library service - the some ss the cost of one hardcover book." A~ain, eA 1993 Gallup Poll found that 8 majority of Asericans believe that tax support for public libraries should be double the ourrent amount." Finally, ehblic libraries receive less that It of all tax dollars and are used by more than 50t of the population. e Enough said. Marco lsland's library will continue to serve seqments of its IX~ulation as well aa it can, while recognizing the needs of the future. ~ L~BRARY BLTZLD~NG PLANS By vote of the ~ibrary Advisory Board, the Marco Island Branch library is the next branch to be expanded. A library ' mite plan viII be ready sometime during the summer of 1995, with construct/on scheduled for 1996. The cost of the project vLll be mat with impact fees, not ad valeram taxes. Preliminary plans call for a significant change to the eximtLng building. Zt is hoped that the present 5600 square feet will be enlarged to close to 11,000 square feet. The ., delign will be rectangular, the entrances will be moved, and Ill eximting building defects will be remedied. Signage will be given careful study, particularly due to the concerns expressed at the february public hearing. Also · mentioned yes the palsability of a drive-up window, the need for short term parking, and many more parking places. flew space viII be created for sn enlarged reference collection, one of the concerns expressed st the public , hearing held last February. Space will also be provided to h~Jse the ecluLpment necemsary for the use of electronic data. There will be a quiet leisure reading end study area. · The children'm area vLll remain essentially the same, but vLll some changes to alloy for less noise and future growth. A lignificant amount of new stackl will be provided for sn enlarged circulating collection of books and audiovisual materials. -- -l, mndscapLng will conform to County Cads, but xeriscapLng will be considered. Maintenance of the landscaping is a continuing concern, given financial constraints. FUTURE STAFFXNG NEEDS The building,as planned, viii not require any additional staffing. There is a need for a trained professional ch/ldren's librarian. This Ii being addressed in the current (rvI996) library budget. A chLldren's librarian to serve Best Nsplem, Harts Zslsnd, and Everglades CLay ham been requested. Given the limited number of children that are residents of Narco Island, it LI not logical to assign luch · staff member ~ust to this branch. During the February public hearLng residents requested additional staffing if the branch hours verb extended. Extension of branch hours is not a foreseeable option at this time. Volunteers serve · most Lmportant role at the branch library. In FY 1993 the Marco branch had 97 volunteers who donated 6300 houre. This yes higher than any other branch. But these dedicated people need training, better organization vLth more precise time slots, and a volunteer manual. All Jl being addressed at the present time, A single volunteer coordinator/trainer for all Collier County librsries is slso in the budget requests for next yesr. ELF, Cr'RONIC DATA TECHNOLOGY At the present time only the Collier County Public Library database is available at the Marco Island Branch Library. With the expansion of the physical facility there viII be the capability of installing CD RONS for a variety of purposes, including databases for periodicals (not only citations but also full text articles), encyclopedias, telephone mmbers, business information, financial services, and · myriad of other resources. These terminals could be . directly linked to those already in place at Headquarters. reEl:nET and Irrtx,ETwlll else be available aq they become viable. Pattoni present st the public hearing requested instructional CO IteMS, particularly for students of all - ,,...., e~re public computers, not only for ' students, but also for parttime residents vho do not bring their ovn vith them to Marco. This request viII be , carefully considered. LIBRARY CARD HOLDERS Registered betrayers, or library card holders, represent more than 65t of the year round population of the Island. In FY93 t|~ere were 10,574 registered betrayers. In FY94 all registrations were redone as the library converted to a computeriled system. As · result a decline was seen. The library registers betroan three end four hundred nov betrayers every month. Here in the season. As of April 30, 1995, there yore 8,931 active betrayers. This rill continue to grey as the parsanent population of the island grays. Note thee this branch also serves residents of Goodland end the Isles of Capri. An interesting statistic is that of visitors to the library. In January, 1995, 8,281 visited. In February, 1995, 11,922 people visited. The library is a very busy piece. With the projected population grovth figures that the Planning Committee has developed it should be simple to project the number of library card holders in the next ten to fifteen years. There is no question that a sizable addition to the existing building is mandated, as is a significant increase to the parking places available. MATERIALS COLLECTIONS AND CIRCULATION There ere over 37,000 Items in the various collections at Marco Island Branch Library. Of these, approximately 27,500 are adult books, 585 young adult books, 6,500 Juvenile books, 765 reference books, 2300 audiovisual materials · - tnclud/n~ cassette tape, l·ser discs, videotapes, and puzzles. Note the vord item in the first sentence. ~here might be 10 COpill Of · best seller and s 24 voltme ' encyclopedia. thil ·ddl up to 34 items, but only 2 titles. lqle library ·%1o lublctibes to 7 nevspapers and 68 periodicals. Xn february, 1995, Narco Xsland circulated 16,204 items. Xn I~arch, 1995 Kerco Xsland circulated 17,%48 items. Xn both . months, this circulation yes topped only by the Collier North branch. Of course Headquarters circulated far more than either branch. But this is an indication of the popularity of the library. ' · he library ie actively yesdAng its collections to remove unused and/or outdated esterisis, Yhis is done for several reasons, Ihelf space Is costly, Rssoving excess esterisis alloys for hey end ulslstsd esterisis to be added vithout the cost of hey shelving, Old esterisis, particularly in the fields of sedicine, science, travel, information sciences end technical lnforsstlon of ell sorts can be sisleading end ' incorrect, Books veer out vith use end have to be replaced or rebound, A hey collection,, nev by copyright date, attracts sore users, ~hts does,~ot seen that classics or popular authors of yesteryear rill be vithdrsvn, ~hsy form the base for · good collection, But vtth ongoing collection ssnsgesent end develops~nt, the circulation statistics rill - continue ~o grov snd more users vill continue to be registered. · he uality of all collections is the bottom line. At the publTc hearing last February complaints vere raised vith regard to the science holdings, ~ne reference collection, e the periodiceli and nevspapers, history, politics1 science, fiction, eft and the children's collection. ~he non-fiction collection yes deemed very uneven. The young adult collection yes considered very poor vith no good literature, end none of it appeared to be used. X request vas made for · toy library, parent-teacher shelves, and board books for both children end parents. ~he Vertical riles are out-of- date and they could be very useful. All of these concerns have been passed on to the Head of Zxten·ion Services and improvement should begin to be apparent vithin the next year. Zt is hoped that the level of education in Collier County, 37% ere college qraduates end 77% are high school graduates, is carefully studied. Comparison must be made 4 for Harco island residents in order to meet the specific needs of its population. Age of its population is also · factor. County vide 40% of the residents are retired. Nhat is the percentage for Narco Zslsnd? Those staff members vho are involved in buying materials for the Narco ZsIand branch should probably be given more In depth demographic data for this island alone. that would enhance their ability to properly purchase asterisis for use here. · CONCLUSION It is important to recognize that the Narco Island Branch ' Library will never be under the control of any authority but that of the County. State statutes mandate county libraries unless special elections mrs held to create city libraries. Only very large cities in Florida have moved to that political format. Therefore, whatever success the Nsrco Vision Plan has, the library viII still fall under the , County Growth Nsnsgssent Plan. This does not, hover·r, minimize the importance of rs=ognisin~ the cultural impact that · good library has on · camsunity. The same can be said for anything cultural that the island has to offer· Z urge the Nsrco Island Vision Planning Committee to use any or all of the shove study ss it can to enhance the value of the entire pro~ect. I would . also urge the Committee to study the other cultural opportunities available on the island. It will only make the entire project stronger. ,' _ cc: ~ohn ~onss, Library D/rector Nsrilyn Norris, Need of Extension Services Thomas W.

A review of pedinent environmental factors did not identify teasera for the crsfrerent results. 0/M:KGROUND On April 3, 1992. Wdson, MiRe, Barton & Peek, Inc, sampled 24 locations in canals around Marco Island. The locations irx:hjded areas served by sewers and septic tank system. The samples were taken to determine I:aclerk}logical quality measuring fecal coilform bacteria. Fourteen sarrg}ies showed signirK:ant levels with values ranging from 20 to 416, units being fuTt}er per l(X}rrd. These sample locations were in areas served by septic tank systems. Test rersults for this date would have failed baderiolo~ical water quality starKlards in effect at that time .The attachrnerst to this repod depicts the Wdson-.Miller test locations and results. The waters around Marco IsLand, tidal bays and passes, are designated Class II waters in Chipfar 62-302.6(X), Fk:N'kla Administrative Cede (FAC). As such the fecat coilform bacteria Ihllf nol exceed I rnedlln value of 14, with not more than 10% of the samples exceeding 43, nor exceed 800 on lny one day, per Chapter 62-302,530, FAC.

There is a lack of fesl data for this area. The Depaelnm~l of Envtromlentll Protection (DEP) samples one Iocatton in the vicinity of the ColJier BIrd. overpass at Smokehouse Bay no more man once a year. These tests have IrK}wn no fecsl coilform baderie. The Marco Island Vision Planning Advisory Convnittee indicated a need for some factual data on which to base future planning which coincided wilh desire of the Public Health Unit for additional testing. Accordingly, DEP was requested to conduct pericdic testing of the waters of Marco Island during the tourist season DEP coilsclad sarrg~s at the fourteen locations that had previous indications of fecal coltform beclerla 8arnpli~ dates were November 28, 1995; January 25, 1996; February 27, 1996; Ind May 8, 1996. The Willon-Miller lainpies were collected at 18 inches below the lurfece The samples were Inabrzed by Davis Ana;/ttcal I.sbormories, Inc of Naples, There wIS no rlinflll on the two days prior to sample collection according to newspaper weather records. However, 0.65 inches of rain was recorded for Marco Island on April 3, 1992 accor~ to VVBBH 'IV rm. The DEP samples ware taken at the surface, except for the February 27th samples which were taken at depths of one to rrva feet below the surface. The semplel were mad by the DEP lab in Punta Gorda. 1'h9 only rainfall on the two days prk}r to or me day of sample collection was 0. 11 inches on May 6th for Naples according to newspaper weeear records, but VVaBH records showed none for Marco Islaf~ All four DEP lesl refulls passed Class II bacl~cal water quality standards currently in effed.

P,E. w^~r~e~~ FUTURE SOIL ANALYSIS REPOKT ml is Another high density ares of concern is Golden Gate City. Having been constructed on fill s~mterial from the dredging of the numerous canals in this area, these wean-made soils" are pezqaeatedvith rock and/or organic material generally unsuitable for septic tanks. For this reason, failures are increasing and nov installations are very difficult to permit and construct. On the other hand, Karco Island, another high density area, experiences rag problesLs due to having veil drained, sandy soils and elevations high enough above groundvoter level to alloy septic tanks to function properly. ~uck is occasionally encountered, though, vhich must be excavated and replaced ~ith appropriate sands for ne~ installations. Several areas in the County are zoned for densities log enough to designate then as areas appropriate for septic tank systems. These are the platted rural Golden Gate Estates and the Pine Ridge subdivision. The location of the former is sho~n on Hap SS-31, and the latter is located north o~ Pine Ridge Road (C.R. 896) and east of U.S. 41, across U.S. 4~ (ro~ the Pelican Bay Improvement DisCrlct. Accordingly, the County has no pla~s to provide regional central sever service to these areas, and the populations and demands in these areas are not included in any of the facilities needs projected heroin. Several com~.orcial/industrial areas on septic tanks have presented concerns; the Pine-Ridge Industrial Park, located north and vest of ~he intersection of Pine Ridge Road (C.R. 896) and Airport Road (C.R. 3~), and the gaplos Industrial Park, located north and east of the intersection of Radio Roa~ (CoR. 856) and Airport Road (C.R. ~l). The problems here stem from septic tanks being inapp~opriata for many commorcia'/industrial vastes. The County has established Ilunicipal S.rvico Taxing Unit (NSTU) projects in both these areas vhich include the provision of central sever systems. Design is under-gay and construction scheduled in the Capital Improvement ~lemsnt (tIE). The foregoing reflects that many factors affect appropriately locating septic tanks, and that criteria needs to be developed and/or better defined governing their use in Collier County. To that end, a policy to that effect is included Ln the Goals, Objectives and Policies section heroin. ss - 1992 WATER QUALITY TESTS Waltr OualJlv SamVl~ fig~ Numlx. r of Coloni~ m mtlltl|t~ Numlx. r of ~ 1 ~300400 2 ~2~0-~ >lOG.200 5 >1-100 4 <1 ~m~pl~Sta~. 17 Chapm 17-~2.~30 o~ u~ Florida Adm~traUv~ Co~, ~ u~ !oi/owin8 ~ il ~ Probable Numbe shall m~l ~ · ~ valu~ ~f 14 tolmdt~ pe mfi111ttff, ~ Number of Colordes Number of -1 1 ~1 6 Sampk ~ :7 colentesoffecalcolifonnbecteriatotali 0 Percentage of Sample with 43 or gre~er: 0% $ouz~.
