shine upon us, that your way may be known on the earth, your saving
power among all nations, let the peoples praise you, oh, God. Let all
the peoples praise you.
Let the nations be glad and sing for joy as you judge the people
with equity and guide the nations upon earth. Let the peoples praise
you, oh, God. Let all the peoples praise you. The earth has yielded its
increase. God, our God, shall bless us. God shall bless us. Let all the

Would you pray with me, please. Lord God, we are grateful that
you are a sovereign God and that it's in your heart to bless us. Lord
God, we ask that you would bring great glory to yourself in this
meeting.
We pray for our commissioners. We know that they're people
with cares and concerns of their own. Lord God, I pray that you
would bring peace to their hearts and bless them with great wisdom, a
wisdom and a skill beyond their own, as they deliberate about matters
and concerns of interest and importance to our community.
And Lord God, we as citizens of this country and this community
pray, Lord God, that you would give us wise hearts as well, that you

impact statement. It should read, instead of $4,400 expended, that
there has been a total of $1,009 expended to date to retrofit cabinets
and to add a door to the facility. It is estimated that approximately
$2,700 is required to update the electrical panel to accommodate the
two organizations. That change is at Commissioner Coyle's request
and the staff s request as well.
The next change is to move Item 16E10. That will -- off the
consent agenda -- will become Item IOD. It's a recommendation to
approve the proposed hunt program at the Pepper Ranch Preserve.
That item has been moved at Commissioner Coletta's request.
We have three time - certain items this morning, Commissioners.
The first is Item 9A. That will be heard at 10 a.m. That was at
Commissioner Coletta's request. Item 10C will be heard at 1:30 p.m;
That was Commissioner Coletta's request. And Item l OD, which was
the item that was just moved from your consent agenda, will be heard
at 10:30 a.m. That was also at Commissioner Coletta request.

And then a final note. Item 16D 16, there was a typo that
Commissioner Fiala pointed out correctly that there would be no fiscal
impact except, not expect, the minimal staff time and permit fee
application.
And those are all the changes I have, Mr. Chairman.

Item #4F
PROCLAMATION DESIGNATING APRIL 30, 2010 AS STAN
GOBER DAY. ACCEPTED BY STAN GOBER — ADOPTED
MR. OCHS: Our final proclamation this morning is 4F,
Commissioners. That's a proclamation designating April 30, 2010, as
Stan Gober Day. To be accepted by Stan Gober. And this item is
sponsored by Commissioner Fiala, Mr. Chairman, who, I believe,
wants to read the proclamation.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Yes, I do. So Stan, you're going to
be stuck standing up here for a few minutes. You want to face the
audience so they can see you?
Whereas, the country we live in faces many challenges, and our
resolve is often tested leading to a dampening of the spirit, but then in
all parts of this great country we are blessed with individuals who
have compassion, personality, and hearts that uplift our spirits and
often provide the catalyst for recovery; and,
Whereas, in Collier County, we have such a special individual, a
man who provides a location to replenish the body with food and
drink and also a location to enjoy the full force of his personality, the
wisdom of his years, and the exuberance of his character; and,
Whereas, he is always to be found at Stan's Idle Hour Restaurant
helping to plan the next way to help in the community or providing a
venue for fundraising in the county or visiting with friends from all
Page 11
April 27, 2010
over the country or entertaining the crowd with his endless supply of
jokes or songs from his 40 years in Goodland; and,
Whereas, the proclamation has not yet named the man whose
84th birthday will be celebrated on the 30th of April, 2010, but the
clues continue. And on the 14th of December 1999, the Board of
County Commissioners issued another proclamation to name a small
saltwater inlet Buzzard's Bay South to honor this man; and,
Whereas, 30th of April, 1492, Christopher Columbus received
the Commission of Exploration from the Spanish thrown; and.
Whereas, the 30th of April, 1789, George Washington was sworn
in as the first president of the United States; and,
Whereas, the 30th of April, 1803, saw the signing of the
Louisiana Purchase; and,
Whereas, the 30th of April, 1926, in Bessimer, Alabama, saw the
birth of this iconic figure; and,
Whereas, taking the opportunity to recognize such a worthy
individual on his 84th birthday is one not to be missed.
Now, therefore, be it proclaimed by the Board of County
Commissioners of Collier County, Florida, that Apri1,30, 2010, be
designated as Stan Gober Day to honor his contribution to what's
special about Goodland, Marco Island, and Collier County.
Done and ordered this 27th day of April, 2010, Board of County
Commissioners, Collier County, Florida, Fred Coyle, Chairman.
And Mr. Chairman, I motion that we approve.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Second.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Thank you.
(Applause.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Congratulations. Have a happy birthday.
MR. GOBER: Thank you very much. Hope you have a good
day and good year.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: You going to do your buzzard
blow for us?
Page 12
April 27, 2010
MR. GOBER: Oh, no. Not today.
(Applause.)
MR. GOBER: Can I say something?
Don't record this now.
MR. KLATZKOW: She will.
MR. GOBER: I want to thank you, Donna, very much for the
honor, and thank you, Commissioners.
And you folks who's all here, we (sic) just fortunate that we have
an attitude toward life where we are givers, you know, instead of
receivers. The good book said, if you believe in me, I'll make a lender
out of you instead of a borrower. And that's happened in my life,
because the first 12 years of my life we were on welfare, because my
dad left my mom when we was quite young.
But I did want to say -- can I tell a little joke? It's not bad. It's
my style.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: You only have an hour.
MR. GOBER: Didn't figure you'd cut me off like that.
Anyways, a little boy went to his mom. He said, Mom, do we
live next door to poor folks? She said, why, honey? Are they
Democrats? Oh, no. That's the wrong one. That's not right.
He said, Mom, do we live next door to poor folks? She says,
why? He says, well, I looked over the fence the other day, and all of
our neighbors are sitting in the back yard smoking one cigarette. Is
that kind of an appropriate joke for our days and times?
I want to thank you all very much, all of you. God bless you, God
bless seeing all these folks here, and God bless America. And I invite
you Stan's, because once you get there, we'll make you feel at home.
Thank you.
(Applause.)
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Motion to approve today's
proclamations.

Item #5A
PRESENTATION HONORING DR. ROBERT TOBER,
RECIPIENT OF THE JOURNAL OF EMERGENCY MEDICAL
SERVICES (JEMS), 2009 EMS 10 INNOVATORS IN EMS
AWARD. RECOGNIZED BY DR. WAYNE LEE, CHARTER
PRESIDENT OF THE FLORIDA ASSOCIATION OF EMS
MEDICAL DIRECTORS AND CURRENT MEMBER AND PAST
PRESIDENT OF THE FLORIDA COLLEGE OF EMERGENCY
PHYSICIANS — PRESENTED
MR. OCHS: Yes, sir.
Item 5A, sir, is a presentation honoring Dr. Robert Tober,
recipient of the Journal of Emergency Medical Services 2009 EMS
Ten Innovators in EMS award. This award to be presented by Dr.
Wayne Lee, charter president of the Florida Association of EMS
Medical Directors and current member and past president of the
Florida College of Emergency Physicians.
Page 14
April 27, 2010
MR. LEE: Thank you, thank you.
Mr. Chairman, Commissioners, lady and gentlemen, like Dr.
Tober, I'm an emergency physician also for a long time, and also like
Dr. Tober, I am the medical director for a number of EMS systems in
Broward County and have been for a long time. Unlike Dr. Tober, my
survival rates at my systems are not the same as his. His are better.
And I have to say, I am envious. And as someone that's getting a
little bit long in the tooth, I am very sensitive to how long it will take
the folks to get to me and help me if I have a cardiac arrest.
Dr. Tober has always been an innovator and last year was
recognized by the Florida Medical Association -- and this is no small
award -- and was awarded the Roy M. Baker Award for outstanding
leadership in EMS. Also last year he was recognized by the
Department of Public Health as the EMS Medical Director of the
Year.
This year the Journal of Emergency Medical Services, which is
nationally recognized by EMS, has awarded him recognition in the
form of naming him as one of the ten outstanding innovators in EMS
in the country. And to do that, one of the criteria is that you have to
make an extraordinary contribution to EMS. And I think Bob's
approach, even though not new, but his implementation of a
BLS - tiered response in this community has significantly improved
your survival rates.
I just want to congratulate Dr. Tober and congratulate all of you
for living in this community. And this award says, EMS -- Ten
innovators in EMS -- he is one of them -- in recognition for innovative
thinking in EMS, Robert Boyd Tober, M.D.
Thank you very much.
Bob, congratulations.
(Applause.)
DR. TOBER: Thank you all for the recognition, and thanks for
supporting all the efforts we've made in this community to make it a
Page 15
April 27, 2010
safer and better place to live. Thanks.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Thank you. Bob, Dr. Lee, could you
both come up here, and we'll have a picture taken of this. And we
would like to add our appreciation to this award, Dr. Tober, for the
wonderful job you do. Thank you very much. Thank you.
(Applause.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: And before we go to the next item,
Barry, would you come up here, please? You asked me to do
something, and we both forgot it.
MR. WILLIAMS: Yes, yes, sir. I was going to mention that.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. I'm going to present you with this
plaque, Commission for Accreditation for Parks and Recreation
Agencies, the award we should have given when we gave you the
proclamation.
MR. WILLIAMS: Thank you.
(Applause.)
MR. WILLIAMS: Thank you, sir.
Item #5B
RECOGNIZING CYNTHIA PIPER, PARK RANGER, PARKS
AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT, AS THE EMPLOYEE OF
THE MONTH FOR APRIL 2010 — PRESENTED
MR. OCHS: Commissioners, this is -- seems to be a Park and
Recreation day, because our next item is a recommendation to
recognize Cynthia Piper, Park Ranger, as -- from Parks and Recreation
Department, as our Employee of the Month for April 2010. Cynthia?
(Applause.)
MR. OCHS: Commissioners, I'll read a few things to embarrass
you.
Cynthia -- Cindy, who goes by Piper, has been an employee of
Page 16
April 27, 2010
the county for almost nine years. Piper has recently assumed the
responsibilities of the day -to -day operations at Collier County's
newest recreational facility, Freedom Park.
In just four months she has gone above and beyond her regular
duties to make the park a place that the public truly enjoys.
In addition to her duties at Freedom Park, Piper is the chairperson
of the Parks and Recreation Department's Annual Child Safety Fair,
which is held every October. She also volunteers to manage the Gotta
Regatta banquet, an annual sailing event for people with special needs,
and serves as an instructor for our summer camp sessions.
Piper's enthusiasm, drive, and commitment, make her a true asset
to Collier County and very deserving of this award.
Commissioners, I present to you Cynthia Piper, Employee of the
Month for April 2010.
(Applause.)
MS. PIPER: Thank you so much.
MR. OCHS: Oh, thank you, Piper. Well done.
MS. PIPER: Appreciate it. Thank you so much.
Item #5C
PRESENTATION BY WADE MASTRO, CO- FOUNDER, SENIOR
VICE PRESIDENT AND CHIEF PRODUCTION OFFICER OF
4WHAT INTERACTIVE THE COLLIER COUNTY BUSINESS OF
THE MONTH FOR APRIL 2010 — PRESENTED
MR. OCHS: Chairman, Commissioners, that takes us to our next
item, 5C. It's a presentation of the Collier County Business of the
Month for April 2010, recognizing 4What Interactive, and presenting
on behalf of the company today is Mr. Wade Mastro, the co- founder,
senior vice - president and chief production officer, and Mr. Reid
Page 17
April 27, 2010
Atwood, the co- founder, senior vice - president, and chief creative
officer of the company.
Gentlemen?
MR. MASTRO: Thank you very much for this honor.
MR. ATWOOD: My name's Reid Atwood. And thank you very
much for the award on behalf of the entire team at 4What. Me,
myself, and Wade Mastro, will be accepting this today.
Unfortunately, our other partner, Jim Cassetta, which a lot of you
may know, was unfortunately not able to be here today because he is
out of town conducting business.
So with that being said, he did actually film a little message,
which you all will see up here on the presentation board that we'll play
for you.
(A video was played.)
MR. ATWOOD: So you can see how the use of video, which is
primarily our main business -- we incorporate a lot of video into
presentations, which we've done here -- you know, has really helped
us bring -- you know, bring business to you -all and show you -all what
we do here, and present ourselves, and bring this technology to
companies that have helped them grow as well.
A couple of quick facts about 4What. We were founded in '95;
have 15 employees. We have a green screen video studio, which is
the way that we produce the video and are able to put it on
background, and are currently serving over a thousand clients.
We provide marketing, training, and communications solutions.
Our web video solutions are, in a lot of ways, very economical for
companies, allows companies to market more effectively. Web video
usually gets put over top of a website.
I'm going to show you -all a couple of examples. We have a few
-- few companies we produced these presentations for locally here. I'll
just kind of show you how it works.
(A video was played.)
April 27, 2010
MR. ATWOOD: So basically our video production services,
we're able to overlay video on top of the website, brings student
perspectives to students that are unable to -- you know, to know about
Ave Maria, help hear from students, and we do the same with
administration, some of the founders. We've incorporated video into a
lot of the Ave Maria website, and it really helps people from all over
the world get to know Ave Maria a little bit better.
We do have a few products that we've created to help drive video
on the website for our customers. We actually call them -- we call
them wideo, which is kind of ironic. We derived that from web video.
So we kind of combined the two and coined the phrase wideo.
We also produce web -- websites. We have web development
solutions. We do complete website design development. We produce
mobile websites now with mobile's becoming more and more popular,
search engine optimization, email marketing, and -- as well as
shopping carts and helping companies sell products online.
We've also derived some web development products that help our
customers control websites and build their own websites such as
newsletter tools, intranets, shopping carts, form builders, news tools,
and it really puts the control in our customers' hands and allows them
to control the websites on their own, which is a nice feature.
We also produce interactive e- learning solutions for customers.
We've produced -- showing a couple examples here on screen -- Bank
of America, Discover Card, Cisco Systems. We produce -- we kind of
take it beyond training to, like I said, you know, to -- for marketing,
training, and communications, to both market the product, to produce
training and -- that is actually -- show an example here.
(A video was played.)
MR. ATWOOD: So when we produce this training piece -- we
produced this training piece for Discover, it was also important to
market it, to let their merchants know about it, to let their customers
know about it, and to market it internally. So that's where marketing
Page 19
April 27, 2010
kind of overlays into e- learning. We produce solutions that
encompass all of those -- all of those requirements for our customers.
As a result we've also produced a few products that are used in
the market. ELTcourses.dot, which is an e- learning portal which
allows us to manage customer projects -- projects managed and
implement e- learning for our customers; and wood trainer, which is a
training product that's actually a -- it gets used with IP phones -- IP
telephonies, Cisco, Avaya, and Microsoft software and hardware
products, which I think is actually incorporated into the county or into
the county school system right now, using that.
We produce online presentations, as you see here. They're
high -end presentations that combine graphics, animation, video texts,
interactive capabilities, and I'll show you another quick example here.
This is actually used to help --
(A video was played.)
MR. ATWOOD: So that was a presentation that we put together
here for one of the local events that helped them really, you know,
explain what the conference was all about and turned out to be a huge
success for Imagine Solutions.
We also put those presentations on mobile devices.
I'm going to go quick here. I know I'm probably going to run out
of time.
We serve a lot of global clients, as well as a lot of local clients.
And this year we are celebrating our 15th year in business since 1995.
That's it.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Thank you.
MR. ATWOOD: I know it's a lot. We do a lot. We do a lot for
companies, so it's a lot to cram into five minutes, and so I tried to do
my best to put together a presentation that relays that.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: I think you did a very good job, and
we're pleased to have you here today. We're pleased to have you in
Collier County. We wish you the best of luck.
Page 20
April 27, 2010
It's really nice knowing that companies of this type are coming to
Collier County, so thank you very much.
MR. MASTRO: One of the things I'd like to add is that myself
and Jim Cassetta, we grew up here, we went to school since grade
school. So, you know, we feel honored to be a part of the community
that we developed here instead of relocating somewhere else.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Good.
MR. MASTRO: So we appreciate the honor. Thank you very
much.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: I used to share an office with Jim
Cassetta over at NCH. We worked together in the same room.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Oh, really?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Yeah.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: You taught him everything he knows?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Yeah, right.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: I'd like to present this plaque to you.
(Applause.)
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Very informative. Thank you.
MR. OCHS: Thank you.

MS. REYNOLDS: It's good to see you.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: You look familiar.
MS. REYNOLDS: Yes. Actually I saw you at Kiwanis on
Marco fairly recently.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Yes, you did.
MS. REYNOLDS: And I see Donna every Thursday.
But I was here once before in December of 2008 when we talked
about the match that we need for Collier County for the approximately
$5 million that's invested in school readiness programs. So I wanted
to put everybody's mind at ease; I am not here to ask for money, okay.
I understand the -- I understand current circumstances.
But I did want to just kind of fill you in on who we are, what we
do, and why I will probably continue to come before you and remind
you that early learning in this state is considered an economic
development initiative. It is not considered an educational initiative.
And that's why the Office of Early Learning in Tallahassee is situated
within the agency for workforce innovation, and it is not situated
within the Department of Education.
So I'd appreciate just a little bit of time to kind of fill you in on
why I -- I spent almost 40 years of my life in K -12 public education,
and then after getting this job a couple years ago, came to realize the
action is really in pre - school. And I'd like to share with you some of
the reasons why that's true.
And so I've prepared a handout there, and I'm just going to go
through quickly. I would be very grateful if you would take the time
at your leisure to look through some of these materials, because I think
they're critically important for Collier's future.
The very first thing that I'm sharing with you is the piece that was
put out by the Florida Chamber last October, and they make it very
Page 22
April 27, 2010
clear that Florida's kind of like at a crossroads. We have those
historical industries that have served us well, but as you guys well
know, with our -- your initiative to our Jackson Labs, we're moving to
higher wage, higher quality workforce.
And the Florida Chamber's been very clear, that's about
education, having a highly qualified workforce that's ready to take
these jobs. And in their book that they put out, closing the talent gap,
the very first point that they make is, if I may, science has proven that
the formative years of ages birth through five are key to child's brain
development, thus early education of the state's youngest children is
paramount.
There's a reason why states are preserving kindergarten funding
levels at a time of greatly declining overall revenues, and that's what
just happened in the current budget session with the state. While other
things were cut across the board, total impact on school readiness and
voluntary preK has been one -half of one percent, because there is
growing understanding that providing high - quality childcare is about
Florida's future. Kindergarten is too late.
The second piece that I share with you -- and again, I ask you
take a look at at your leisure -- is a piece that the Rand Corporation
put together where they did an objective outside analysis of the
economic impact of early learning.
Very briefly, an increasing course to Fortune 500 CEOs, federal
reserve bank analysts, Nobel Prize - winning economists, and other
business and economic leaders have led the call to increase public
investments in early childhood education.
And I want to make a distinction between an investment and
charity. There are wonderful philanthropic organizations in Collier
County who do great and wonderful things for children, but they
follow an agenda that is the agenda of that individual board of
directors and the projects states use to participate in.
The Early Learning Coalition is charged by the state legislature
Page 23
April 27, 2010
with raising all boats, not just a few, not just here and there, but are the
only agency in this county that is charged by the state legislature to
handle subsidized childcare for nonmigrant children. There are other
agencies that are strictly focused on migrant children.
But we are focused on all children, and that's why the state does
ask your participation in the initiatives of the coalition.
Two more pieces. One -- both from economists with the Federal
Reserve Bank; one from Dennis Lockhart, president and chief
executive officer of the Federal Reserve in Atlanta. His opening
statement, that I just learned, truthfully, a few years ago. Kindergarten
is too late. Ninety -five percent of brain development is finished by the
age of five. By and large, much of life's future agenda is determined
by the age of three, and that's why this state has chosen to look at
childhood as an investment in economic development. Early
education generates higher returns.
And I will assure you -- and I'd be happy to meet with you, any
of you, individually -- the research base that supports that is
irrefutable. As a matter of fact, in one of these articles you will read
that the economic return to a community for high - quality early
childhood is greater than the economic return on a baseball stadium.
A second piece from the Federal Reserve Bank, the economic
benefits of ensuring good early childhood development are clear.
Now it's time to design and implement the system to do it. And,
again, that's from a vice - president of a Federal Reserve Bank, not an
educator, not a, you know, do- gooder, professional do- gooder.
We're also hearing about the needs for early childhood education
from other quarters that we never heard of before. We're used to
hearing it from, you know, early childhood professionals, educators,
psychologists, but we're hearing it now from different groups,
economists. Now, they've been around for a while sharing with us.
We're hearing it from thousands of retired admirals and generals
who are telling us that fully 75 percent of the young people in this
Page 24
April 27, 2010
country today are unfit for military service.
They're unfit for military service because of three primary
reasons, number one being low levels of education -- and I'm hoping
this is not the first time you've heard this -- number two being health
issues, obesity, asthma, things that keep kids serving well in the
military, and the third one, the large numbers of kids who are
incarcerated today are coming out with criminal records.
And what are the generals and the admirals recommending as the
fix? Guess what? Early childhood education. Quality early
education increases graduation rates and cuts crime. Research shows
early education builds a foundation for early learning. Again, from
the generals and the admirals. There is solid research behind early
education.
So the title of this piece that I think many people find very
compelling, Ready, Willing and Unable to Serve, seventy -- and this is
put out by retired military.
The other interesting place that we're hearing this from is from
the sheriffs and the police chiefs. In this piece here, it's called School
or the streets? Crime and America's Dropout Crisis. Police chiefs and
sheriffs from across the United States have invested significantly in
high - quality research that begins to look at, what would be the
impact? If we could just increase the graduation rate in those
high- dropout rate states -- and I think everybody here knows, we are
one of those high- dropout rate states -- by 10 percent, what their
analysts predict is that by increasing graduation rates in the State of
Florida by just 10 percent, we could accrue over $1 billion in
additional revenues to this state.
Their recommendation, where do we start? Is it getting
redundant? High - quality preK increases graduation rate and cuts
crimes. And that is not from educators or social workers. That's from
the police chiefs and sheriffs across this great country.
I've also included another piece that shows that the income of
Page 25
April 27, 2010
people who have Bachelor's degrees is approximately five times the
amount of income of kids who don't graduate from high school, and
that money goes into the economy of a community, and that's why I
am so grateful that you guys are working to bring higher wage, higher
skilled jobs here. But there's a corollary piece to it, and that corollary
piece is, unless our kids are prepared to take those high -wage,
high- paying jobs, much as in other places, those jobs will go to others.
Does that mean I'm supposed to stop?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Yes. Thank you very much. Your time
has expired. Any questions from the commissioners?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Thank you very much.
MS. REYNOLDS: Well, just in conclusion, I would ask, in your
own strategic plan you talk about making decisions about how to
collaborate with nonprofits. I don't think we're a typical nonprofit.
We put over $8 million into this economy every year.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Have you talked with the school board?
MS. REYNOLDS: Again --
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Have you talked with the school board?
MS. REYNOLDS: Yes, we have talked with the school board.
We have a representative from the superintendents on our -- on our
school board.
But this specifically is about economic development in this
county, and we hope that we can have ongoing conversations with
more County Commissioners, as we do in other counties.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Thank you very much.
MS. REYNOLDS: Thank you.
Item #6B
PUBLIC PETITION BY MR. TERRY DALEY REGARDING
LEVEL OF ROAD NOISE — DISCUSSED
Page 26
April 27, 2010
MR. OCHS: Commissioners, the next item on your agenda is
6B. It's a public petition request by Mr. Terry Daily regarding level of
road noise.
MR. DAILY: Good morning, Commissioners. How are you
today?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Good, thank you. How are you?
MR. DAILY: Excellent, thank you.
I'll start with just a brief story of why I'm here, road noise. That's
pretty vague.
Where I reside -- my wife and I actually moved back into Collier
County back in October.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Get a little closer to that mike, Terry, if
you wouldn't mind.
MR. DAILY: My wife and I moved back into Collier County
back in October when we purchased a home at basically Livingston
and Progress, the main exit out of the industrial park.
When we purchased our house, as anybody does, we look at a
house on a Saturday afternoon between roughly, you know, one and
two. We stop in. Sort of like test driving a car.
Loved the house, the area; road noise was moderate. We said,
okay, this is great. What we found out after we moved into the house
months later, as time was going on, that that has basically become an
increasing volume on a daily basis.
I go back to, when we had friends over the first time, I actually
wrote a letter off to, I think, Nick Casalanguida, which I -- my first
entrance into my whole investigation of all this. And if I have a quick
second, I'd like to read it to you.
Thank you for speaking with me in regards to trying to get us a
sound barrier wall in a recently purchased house in Briarwood. Our
current situation is that the back of our house literally backs up to
Livingston Road in the Briarwood community.
Page 27
April 27, 2010
Most of the community south of the guard gate currently have
sound barriers, with a few exceptions. I spoke with a few of those
residents. They have stated that the wall, although not a true sound
barrier, does help noise -- help reduce road noise.
The north end of the community that my wife and I live in is in a
cul -de -sac, consists of five houses that back to Livingston. Three have
hurricane shutters up to block the road noise 24 /seven, 356, and that is
for the last two years.
Six across the street from us, as well as neighboring houses, and
around the lake, suffer greatly from the noise.
Saturday night we had -- that Saturday night we had eight --
basically 10 people over. All within eight feet of each other, we had
to stop talking more than eight times for tractor trailers, motorcycles,
cars with exhaust.
It's a daily occurrence with the road noise inside the house. It's
really basically diminishing the quality of life to the point we were
excited about coming back -- we were in Atlanta -- excited about
coming back to Collier County. We came in on a Saturday, looked at
the house, picked out a house with a great outdoor living area, said,
this is fantastic. Let's do this. Came back. We literally cannot sit out
back right now. It is that bad.
It caused me to go into a sound study. I had an acoustic engineer
come out, do a sound study for me on my road. These -- the -- I guess
the noise abatement criteria is 65 for Florida Highway Administration.
I think you -all have probably been afforded the PDF which I
forwarded as well. My sound levels are in the 80s on the peak, which
is excessive. I would welcome any of you over to my house for a
cookout sometime. Bring earphones.
These sound studies, as I say, show it up into the 80s on a
constant basis. The ambient noise level in my backyard is the noise
abatement criteria, 64 to 65. That is the ambient level. My constant
level in my backyard is 65.
April 27, 2010
My wife and I and friends -- we made a discovery just recently.
We had our yard resodded last week. We sat out front, said, this is
great. It's a nice night. Looked at the grass, said, let's sit out front,
look at the new grass. We made an investment.
What we realized, the difference of 40 feet from the back of the
house was sitting in front of house behind the wall where the front
door is, the noise had dropped. It was -- not that it was nonexistence,
but it was a livable tone. A hum of a tire was suddenly acceptable.
You didn't hear a 14 stack of a tractor trailer that came out leaving the
industrial park going through all eight gears through the back of our
house, not to mention the motorcycles, the five o'clock rush when
people get off work, the mad dash, the eight o'clock -- modified
pickup at 8:15 every night that blows out at 112 decibels. And I have
that on a sub base vault (sic). I need to get that -- there's just so many
things we're looking at.
I go into my study. Back actually in 1996 when the county was
moving forward with Livingston Road, it actually had a sound study
on Livingston Road at that time, and that protected the noise level of
Livingston Road, what it was going to be.
That sound study at that particular time actually went on to say
that a sound wall eight feet taller than the elevation of the sound line
of roadway would decrease the decibel level by 5 decibels or more,
and that was known back in '96. Now we're actually in that time and
place where that is actually needed for quality of life.
He goes -- went on to that sound study in 2010, which -- where
we are today, he says that our decibel level is 69.25, projected back
then. He's not far off. He's under, but he's not far off. He's under by
about 6 to 7 decibels, which still exceeds the NAC, or noise abatement
criteria, for Florida Highway Administration, which we tend to follow
for our road procedures.
I go into -- I've given you a couple of matrixes furnished by
Florida Highway Administration as well, and you may have them. I'll
Page 29
April 27, 2010
give you one here for that. This is actually published -- put together
and published by the Florida Highway Administration. I don't know if
you can -- is that going to be bigger?
What it basically does is it goes on to say -- to begin the
evaluation, was this site -- was the site developed after the date of
public knowledge? Yes or no? If it was a yes, it's an automatic wash;
there's no consideration for noise abatement. No, it funnels down into
all the other criteria as well. It's so small I wouldn't -- I have trouble
with it, so I'm going to just leave it up there for your re- review and
your PDF, which you have as well.
But basically the end result of that is, everything funnels down
to, we meet the criteria on a Federal Highway Administration Level.
We are not a federal highway. We're a county road, but we abide by
those regulations, I've been told from numerous Department of
Transportation engineering people. I've received phone calls at
random from county people that have, you know, been contacted by
me digging for information on this.
As I go into it a little bit farther, you recently did a sound wall on
Santa Barbara extension and Davis. The criteria for that sound wall,
the noise study which was done, was done in 2006 in a wooded lot.
The ambient noise level, 47- seven. It was the hypothetical basically
for what it's going to increase to in 2030.
In 2030, they're still 18 decibels below what I live with every
day, but yet it's still considered a considerable increase. They have
14 -foot sound walls up, one foot thick, with a two -inch styrofoam core
to help absorb the noise, and their traffic will never see what we see
on Livingston.
Livingston, from the Sheriffs Department, people I spoke with, is
the new superhighway from county -- Collier County to Lee County,
and people use it constantly without getting on 75.
And that commercial area, especially with Golden Gate entrance
ramp going in, that has increased the traffic probably fivefold, to make
Page 30
April 27, 2010
that the primary entrance.
Going back into it a little bit farther, I had a speed study done. In
a six to eight (sic) period I had 12,000 cars. That doesn't break down
as far as trucks, but one day sitting -- I worked from home -- I counted
120 tractor trailers between the hours of eight in the morning and six
at night. My back window faces the -- so it's not hard. Over 120, and
that's in roughly an eight -hour period. That's not counting midnight to
seven in the morning what's still coming in for distribution.
This area right now, we've got an area of about 47 homes that are
affected, from our house back across the lake. Just to put that in a
little more perspective as far as the neighborhood and who's affected --
who's affected.
This right -- where am I going? This right here, the dark blue
spot, is actually our house. This is Progress coming out onto
Livingston. All the houses shaded in yellow are neighbors that I had
spoken with that have signed the petition, that they have -- they are
affected by the noise. They can't sit out back. They do hear it, they
see it at nighttime, from UPS repairing trucks to Waste Management
leaving at four in the morning, to Publix dropping off tractor trailers.
You name it, we've got it all.
The quality of life that we actually look at, one of my neighbors
-- well, I spoke of it. I actually have taken a picture of one of them.
This is how they leave their house all day, all night, ever since they've
had it. They can't take it down just to let the noise in. So actually
these are the steps -- these are the steps that we have to take as the
homeowners. I don't want to have to get to that level of doing that.
You know -- 15 seconds left. I've done a lot of research into this.
It's feasible. It's warranted. It would be greatly appreciated if you
would consider it. Quality of life would go up. I can't even begin to
tell you where it is right now. And once again, I welcome all of you to
stop by and just enjoy.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Thank you very much.
Page 31
April 27, 2010
MR. DAILY: Thank you so much for your time.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Norm, can you tell us what the possible
solutions might be?
MR. FEDER: Commissioner, for the record, Norman Feder,
transportation administrator.
When we built Livingston Road, it was completed in 2001. A
speed study was done, as Mr. Daily points out; a wall was place where
there were homes within Briarwood.
A second phase of Briarwood was started sometime after 2002.
Actually the aerials show that this home wasn't built until after 2005,
all built by the developer after the roadway was already in six -lane
status and in effect.
Mr. Daily was leasing the property in October, wrote to us in
November. Property wasn't closed on -- I guess it's in your wife's
name, Mr. Daily --
MR. DAILY: Correct.
MR. FEDER: -- in December. And so the knowledge of the
situation should have been available to Mr. Daily.
But in any case, we do have people that build around six -lane
arterials. Once they're completed, we do the noise studies when we go
to build it to that standard, and we spot accordingly at that time. So I
think even the graphic that was put up, was it known before the effect
of this in that same standard? And the answer's yes and, therefore, we
don't proceed with noise walls. We'd be doing it all around the
county.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: So there's no --
MR. FEDER: There are some options, obviously. The neighbors,
if there are 47 that are so impacted from the second phase, could get
together and form an MSTU and either petition this board for an
exception or build a six -foot wall to provide them some relief.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Do you have any idea what the cost of
that would be?
Page 32
April 27, 2010
MR. FEDER: We can give you an estimate of it. Between the
homes -- and there's also actually five lots still owned by the
developer in that area that might be of use as well.
I had one estimate that probably, if you utilize these homes,
you're about 20,000 or a little less per home to build the full wall.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Per home?
MR. FEDER: Per home, yes. And so if they did that as an
MSTU over time, it would reduce the cost, obviously, as impacts.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Commissioner Halas?
MR. FEDER: Actually 7,000's the figure I have here. I'm sorry.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Seven thousand per home?
MR. FEDER: Seven thousand.
MR. DAILY: Now, can I --
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Is there a possibility that the
developer could put this wall up? Norm?
MR. FEDER: Excuse me?
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Is there a possibility that the
developer could put this wall up? Is this PUD still open?
MR. FEDER: I'll defer to Nick on that. But the developer is one
we dealt with in a number of areas, as you know, in the past. Really
they should have, once they were building next to a six -lane facility --
COMMISSIONER HALAS: I think that's where -- I think that's
where it lies, because I can't see where the county's liable, because at
the time, from the information that's put in our agenda, there was
nothing but trees there, and the road was completed, and then the
developer started building. So it shouldn't --
MR. DAILY: Now, may I --
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Excuse me. It shouldn't be the
responsibility of the taxpayers here to put this wall up. I think that the
commitment should either be the developer -- if the developer doesn't
want to do it, then I think that the homeowners that are in there, and
they feel that they're impacted, they need to step up to the plate and,
Page 33
April 27, 2010
like you said, maybe put together an MSTU to address this particular
issue.
MR. FEDER: Mr. Chairman, back to the issue. The estimate for
a 10 -foot wall, if they got that exception, is about $240,000. I don't
have it split out. So -- let me pull back. About 240,000 for a 10 -foot
wall for the total length.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: That's an expensive wall.
Mr. Daily, you wanted to make some comments?
MR. DAILY: Yes. Actually as I -- going back over it -- and I
know you had spoken -- spoke to the builder being involved in this.
That probably isn't a likelihood for us.
This neighborhood was actually -- and if I go back to the tax
records and appraiser records, this neighborhood was planned and in
place before Livingston so, therefore, one -- the way it -- the way --
the way I read this in Florida Highway Administration rules is -- with
the matrix that I have presented as well, is one -- if the neighborhood
is in place before the highway, the neighborhood actually trumps the
highway, that the highway should be -- the highway's what's creating a
noise abatement criteria, not the homes. They're lots. It's a planning
community. Albeit, the houses aren't built yet.
The reasonable factors for a sound study -- sound study or
antiquity, the amount of development that's occurred before and after
the initial construction of a roadway. That is from a county document.
I think more so than ever, that applies now.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay, thank you. I'll ask one other
question. Norm, can you tell us whether or not Mr. Daily's
interpretation is correct in your opinion?
MR. FEDER: Typically we do try to look at subdivisions in
what's been developed. This was a Phase II. The approval of the
initial plat was on Phase I, and we responded accordingly. There were
some of those Phase I's that hadn't been built out yet, and the wall was
built continuously. They started on Phase II only after 2001 when the
Page 34
April 27, 2010
road was completed. So that's probably the distinction on this.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Thank you very much.
Commissioners, are there any commissioners who would like to
see this brought back for further considerations?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Who's district is this?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: It's my district.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Oh, is it?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: It's my district.
Okay. Mr. Daily, I'm sorry. We don't have enough votes on the
board to solve this problem. I would encourage you to pursue the cost
of that wall. Two hundred thousand dollars seems to be extremely
high --
MR. DAILY: I actually -- on the cost of that wall, I've spoken
with the actual contractors, the precast company which does it. The
cost is not $200,000 for a thousand -foot wall. It's about 135 -.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: $135,000?
MR. DAILY: Correct.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: I would suggest --
MR. DAILY: It's considerably less --
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Yeah.
MR. DAILY: --than 200.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: I would suggest you consider that
possibility, see if the neighbors would be willing to form an MSTU.
They could pay for it over time. It wouldn't be -- I don't think that it
would be necessary to pay this up front in cash. So there might be
some interest in doing that. It appears that that's about the only way
you can get that resolved right now.
MR. DAILY: Great. Thank you.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Thank you.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Another question. Do we -- are
there some kind of grants or something available, some kind of
neighborhood stabilization grants or anything at all to help these
Page 35
April 27, 2010
people?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: That's a question to Norm or our housing
department.
MR. FEDER: As far as state grants, the only thing I could think
of is a potential for enhancement funding, which is pretty well
programmed out for the next four or five years, but that would be one
area of potential under grant areas, at least the traditional ones we use.
We could talk to housing and community development, but it's kind of
hard to come across grants these days.
We'll work with Mr. Daily and be happy to work with his
neighbors on the MSTU. We will research any grant options though.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: There are CDBG grants. I don't know if
they can be applied to something like this, but we seem to be getting
money every year for CDBG grants.
MR. FEDER: And that's what I said, that's what we look at --
CHAIRMAN COYLE: If we can help somebody repair their
front porch or put in storm windows, it seems to me that we should be
able to help somebody put up sound walls to improve their quality of
life.
MR. FEDER: Mr. Chairman, we'll make sure that we get Mr.
Daily in touch with the folks that work that grant program and also
information on MSTU.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Thank you.
MR. DAILY: In all honestly, I've invested over a hundred hours
of my time to get it where it is today, you know, the Phase I or Phase
II being planned, whether it was a known quotient before Livingston
Road.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Mr. Daily, we don't have three votes on
this council to do it.
MR. DAILY: I know. Thank you.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Thank you. Okay.
April 27, 2010
Item #9A
DISCUSSION OF POSSIBLE FUNDING ALTERNATIVES FOR
THE S.S. JOLLEY BRIDGE FISHING PIERS - MOTION
DIRECTING STAFF TO EXPLORE POSSIBLE FUNDING
SOURCES WITH THE SUPPORT OF THE MPO — APPROVED
MR. OCHS: Mr. Chairman, that takes you to your 10 a.m.
time - certain item this morning. That's Item 9A. That's a discussion of
possible funding alternatives for the S.S. Jolley Bridge fishing piers.
This item was requested for discussion by Commissioner Coletta.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Motion to approve.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Second.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Call the question.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: No. Cancel that motion and second.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Yeah. Thank you very much,
Commissioner Coyle.
If I could, this has been an item that came up before several times
in the MPO. Regrettably, when this item came before the
commission, it's one of those one times out of the year that I wasn't at
the MPO meeting.
The $500 (sic), without really getting into a deep analysis of what
it could -- $500,000, half million, that was supposed to be designated
for the pier, without getting into a deep analysis of what it could do or
how it could be applied, was reassigned to the City of Naples to be
able to use to strengthen bridges that needed some work down at the
City of Naples.
However, with that said, I asked Phil if he would take a look at
what might be available out there in grants to be able to move this
issue forward and just test the will of my fellow commissioners to see
if this is something we could pursue. I'm not talking about our budget
and being impacted by it, but the pursuing of certain grants.
Page 37
April 27, 2010
Phil, what can you tell us? I haven't had a chance to meet with
you beforehand, so whatever you share with this commission is going
to be news to me.
MR. TINDALL: Thank you, Commissioner. For the record, Phil
Tindall, MPO Director.
We've just gotten started on the research and possible grant
opportunities to possibly fund the fishing pier. FDOT District 1 staff
has been very helpful. They did some research, and they provided us
with a list of grant sources that was compiled by the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection, Office of Greenways and
Trails. There's a list of 70 different grant sources that we've just started
doing the research on. It will take us several months to get through
the entire list. But we are looking through that.
About 41 of those 70 grant sources are foundations, 27 are
government entities, and a couple of them are not - for - profit
organizations.
So as I explained to you in an email on April 8th, it will take
quite a while for us to go through all these and try to get some
information on their feasibility, but we have initiated the process with
the help of FDOT District 1 staff to try to research grant possibilities
for funding the fishing piers.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Well, if we don't have any proposals,
why don't we just provide guidance to continue the analysis and come
back to us when we've got a specific proposal? Will that be okay for
everybody? I mean, why discuss it now when we don't even know
what --
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: No, that's what I was hoping for
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Is that okay?
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: -- is something in the way of
support and directions for staff.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Commissioner Henning?
April 27, 2010
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Yeah. Actually it should go to
the MPO.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Yeah.
MR. TINDALL: Our plan was to --
COMMISSIONER HENNING: That should be the --
MR. TINDALL: I'd just like to say --
COMMISSIONER HENNING: -- direction. May I finish?
MR. TINDALL: I'm sorry, sir. I'm sorry.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: But also, I don't want to get in
the way of other funding sources that we have right now and gave
direction. We need full disclosure on those items. But if there is
grants out there above and beyond what has been applied, yeah, let's
do it.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay.
MR. MITCHELL: Also you have a speaker.
MR. TINDALL: Also we'll present an item in the fall after the
summer break when we've had a chance to research. They have a
specific agenda item in the fall.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Commissioner Fiala?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Yes. Also, if there's money left
over from the construction of the bridge -- now that we're knowing
that things are coming in at a lesser cost, a lot of the construction is
coming in early, you know, before the projected time -- if there's
money saved, is there something that we can do now to request that
that money then be put into a fishing pier rather than dispersed
elsewhere? Is there something we can do as a commission or as an
MPO?
MR. TINDALL: We can certainly inquire with FDOT on that
matter. The funds that were reallocated to the Mooring Line Drive
Bridge project were part of the $5.6 million in local -- area local
stimulus funding. The remainder would be FDOT district dedicated
revenue and also the state's flexible stimulus funds, which -- that's
Page 39
April 27, 2010
something that might be -- have to be decided at the FDOT central
office level. But we could certainly inquire if it turns out the costs are
coming in below what's budgeted.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Right. I just thought if we got out in
front of this situation early and put in a request for those funds for this
specific purpose, possibly, that would put us in front of the line for the
money.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: They haven't even identified all the
sources yet, so I think that's what they intend to do if we give them
direction to do so.
Now, we have one speaker or two speakers?
MR. MITCHELL: We have one speaker.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Why don't we call the speaker.
MR. MITCHELL: Wayne Jenkins.
MR. JENKINS: Good morning, Commissioners. My name is
Wayne Jenkins. I just -- I won't take a lot of time on this. I was here
merely to support the idea that there's definitely a need for these
catwalks and to see that they do get advanced. And like I said, maybe
it's a little premature, but I don't think there's much doubt there's a
need for it, and I just wanted you to know there is support. Thank you.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: I just have a question. You're talking
about catwalks. Catwalks off of what?
MR. JENKINS: Okay. Maybe I used the wrong -- I am looking
at fishing piers underneath the current Jolley Bridge. I call them
catwalks. It's a fishing pier. It would be the same thing.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: All right. I was just hoping you weren't
talking about adding an additional catwalk to the bridge itself, because
that's an awfully long way to drop a line.
MR. JENKINS: Well, that's true, or maybe we could come up
with something new so we'd have a place to walk cats out on the
bridge. Thank you.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: They have to be on a leash.
.,__,ro
April 27, 2010
Okay. Is it -- Commissioner Coletta, if you'd like to make a
motion to --
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Yes, I would.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: -- just to have staff continue researching
this and come back to the MPO --
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Right.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: -- and then to the Board of County
Commissioners hopefully --
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Yes.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: -- with a specific proposal.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: That's absolutely correct, and
that, also in the motion, I'd like to clarify the fact that the Collier
County Commission is supportive of this particular direction.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Second.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Any further discussion?

Where do we go from here, County Manager?
Item #I OD
THE PEPPER RANCH PRESERVE QUALITY WILDLIFE
MANAGEMENT HUNT PROGRAM, WITH SPECIFIC
DIRECTION REGARDING THE USE OF RIFLES, AND DIRECT
THE COUNTY MANAGER, OR HIS DESIGNEE, TO
IMPLEMENT THE PROGRAM - MOTION TO HAVE THE
COUNTY MANAGER'S STAFF HOLD 2 EVENING PUBLIC
MEETINGS TO GET MORE PUBLIC INPUT THEN BRING
BACK TO THE BOARD AT A FUTURE MEETING —
APPROVED
MR. OCHS: Commissioner, we're going to your 10:30 time
certain, which is Item I OD on your agenda. It was moved this
morning from your consent agenda. It is a recommendation to
approve the Pepper Ranch Preserve Quality Wildlife Management
Hunt Program with specific direction regarding the use of rifles, and
direct the county manager or his designee to implement the program.
And Commissioner Coletta had asked for this item to be moved.
We can make a staff presentation or get into specific questions from
you.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Well, if I may, the reason I
pulled it was a little different from the reason that you may or may not
suspect.
I -- when this whole program was originally put together and we
Page 44
April 27, 2010
got public input on it, the direction was for a very limited type of
hunting on Pepper Ranch recognizing the uniqueness of the resource,
and a tremendous -- well, two meetings -- was it two or three -- two
meetings were put together with the public's input. And every
direction was going forward. I was very, very pleased with how
conservative the group was there and how they wanted to see it
handled. The resource would only be tapped during the prime hunting
season once a month. A whole bunch of positive things. Even the
fees they were willing to assess on themselves to be able to access the
land, the drawings that would take place, and it was all great.
Of course, the very first thing that's going to happen there at the
commission's direction was the youth hunt, which turned out to be a
bigger success than anyone ever anticipated. It was absolutely
remarkable.
The main stakeholders that were at the meetings for setting the
regulations for putting this all together also participated in the youth
hunt as what they call master hunters to be able to be the guides for
the individual youth that were there, also their parents or guardians
had to be there. It was -- a youth had the guardian there plus a hunt
master, and everybody just enjoyed themselves so much and they got
so much out of it. The discussion went to, why don't we go back and
ask the Collier County Commission -- we have plenty of time to be
able to act.
The next hunt that we were thinking about doing was all the way
into October, and it was possibly going to be another youth hunt for
hogs again, because we don't have a management plan for the regular
game. And then we were looking at the possibilities toward moving
into this very slowly to make sure that whatever we do with the
resource is not going to, in any way, deplete it or to make any
remarkable mark on the amount of game that's out there -- was a
turkey hunt for gobblers in the spring, which is removing a resource
from the scene that's a minimal impact. We're talking a very small
Page 45
April 27, 2010
amount of birds and how many people would be able to hunt. If they
took four birds, it would probably be amazing.
But the whole thing is, is that, why don't we go back and just take
a few minutes and review this one more time, take it back to a public
meeting to be able to have the public be able to weigh into it again to
make sure we're doing the right thing to see if we could just limit this
all just to youth hunts in the future.
Because if we stop to think about it, it's a very, very limited
resource. The number of people that would be able to hunt in any one
year is, I mean, is very small. I doubt if anyone -- if there's enough
people applying, and there should be. You probably would never be
able to hunt more than once or twice in a lifetime just because of how
many people would like to do it, to give everybody a fair share.
So why not let the youth of our county get the enjoyment and the
experience out of it? And -- excuse me -- today we're going to have
some people here that participated that have signed up to speak for
you. And I was wondering, before we go to questions and
suggestions, if we could hear from the speakers and then take it from
there, and then seek the commission's guidance to where we go from
here.
MR. MITCHELL: Sir, we have five speakers. Wayne Jenkins,
followed by Buster Miller.
MR. JENKINS: Good morning, Commissioners. My name is
Wayne Jenkins. I am the president of the Collier Sportsmen
Conservation Club. We are a long- standing local organization that
supports public access and responsible outdoor use.
I was privileged to be able to be the hunt master for this youth
hunt we just had. I don't think I've ever done anything any more
rewarding so far as the way it went. We had 50 people there for a
weekend, never heard a cross word, never heard a fly and a complaint
(sic). It was a beautiful thing to experience.
I look forward to another one. I'm not here to give you a lot of
0i
April 27, 2010
information on the past hunt. We -- I will be doing a presentation for
you in a month or so on the Pepper Ranch youth hunt, and at that time
I will tell you some things about Melissa Hennig that you did not
know, and I will leave it at that.
What I'm really here for today is to tell you that with the --
participating in this event and also participating in the public
meetings, there has been a lot of discussion, a lot of different ways of
looking at this, and I'm asking you to allow it to go back to staff for
some more public input before we set the rules firmly in place.
And there's a lot of things to consider. As Mr. Coletta mentioned
to you, it's not a big area. A lot of it is pasture. So we're only looking
at probably anywhere from eight to I I people hunting at a time, which
is going to be a very competitive process to be able to do that.
But just to let us see if we can fine tune what we've got in place.
There's still much discussion. I think we heard earlier about the rifle
issue. I can tell you we did have 15 young adults out this weekend, or
last weekend, a week ago. It was done very -- I feel very orderly with
the participation I have from some volunteers, and that -- they were
distributed, they were given zones to where -- which way they had to
shoot, and it was a very enjoyable experience, and I just ask for your
support in letting us develop some additional time on it. Thank you.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: If I may, Chair, for just a
moment, comment on the issue of rifle and training and how the youth
were handled.
In order for them to be able to participate, they had to take a very
detailed hunter's safety course. They were also given additional
instructions on how to humanely kill an animal. They were given a
point on the animal that the animal had to be killed at. The four hogs
that were slaughters, I would say that three of them --
MR. JENKINS: Harvested, sir. We don't slaughter. We harvest.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Harvest. Four hogs that were
harvested, three of them were hit within about an inch of that kill zone
Page 47
April 27, 2010
that was marked. That's really remarkable. Somebody has to really
concentrate when they're going to pull the trigger.
Before they can fire their gun, they had to have permission not
only of their parent or guardian that was there, but also the hunt
master that was standing behind them so that would eliminate any
kind of problems, you know, with the new hunter out there, and
everybody handled it remarkably.
MR. JENKINS: Thank you.
MR. MITCHELL: Buster Miller. He'll be followed by Cathy
Lund.
MR. MILLER: Good morning, Commissioners. My name's
Buster Miller. I've been in Naples for -- well, since 1952. I was
raised here.
Over the years, our properties in Collier County, you know, they
-- Big Cypress is federal, the Picayune is state, and then -- or, yeah,
state, and then Fakahatchee's state. We have nothing left for the kids.
So I went on this youth hunt as a volunteer, as a guide -- I'm also
a hunt master -- and I had a wonderful change in my mind. I said, you
know, if the adults don't stand up for the kids and save something for
the kids, there's going to be nothing in Collier County.
So I want to see this tabled or whatever, put back. We do have to
have more public input on it. And I just want to hope and pray that we
can get this to where we can just make it a youth hunt area, because it
is a good thing.
And another thing, speaking -- Commissioner Coletta was talking
about the hunt. The thing is, when these children are out there, they
do not have to kill the animal. That is to their discretion. They look at
this animal and they say, no, I don't want to shoot it. That's fine. It's
not all about pulling a trigger. It is about going, enjoying yourself in
the woods, and learning things.
I had -- the boy I was with -- his mother's here today -- he shot a
nice big sow, the first big kill, and I told him to hold up because I
April 27, 2010
didn't know if that was a bear coming through or a pig. But that boy
waited, waited till he had a good, clear shot, and then he did it, and the
pig fell right there. And it was just a great experience.
I don't want to hunt myself. I want to see us table it and let our
youth have something. Thank you.
MR. MITCHELL: Cathy Lund, and she'll be followed by Marco
Espinar.
MS. LUND: Good morning. My name is Cathy Lund. I was
fortunate enough to -- and my son, to be on this very first Collier
County youth hunt.
He went through all the courses, and I wouldn't have it any other
way. He was taught properly.
The entire time we were on this youth hunt, and the experience --
experience that we had, I felt safe. My son was taught properly.
What I didn't expect was all the education that went along with it,
teaching them properly. They're going to be the future hunters of
Collier County. All the wildlife that we saw, from gobbler turkeys to
a big, open field of as many as 15 deer at a time, to a very curious
little bear.
The experience was absolutely wonderful. I can't say enough
about the W -- FWC.
I would like my son and other youth hunters to have the
opportunity to do this again and to experience the vast wildlife that's
out there that we may have never seen. Thank you.
MR. MITCHELL: Marco Espinar. He'll be followed by Tom
Taylor.
MR. ESPINAR: Good morning, Commissioners. Marco Espinar.
I was one of your hunt coordinators, volunteers, a hunt guide, and I'm
here to support to have a couple more public meetings to discuss this
openly, but I'm also here to thank the County Commissioners for
allowing us to have this youth hunt.
I'm going to say something that may be a little -- take it a little bit
April 27, 2010
more political, and that is, this all started with Collier Addication (sic).
When we have a problem in our community, a lot of times it's not
more regulation or more -- or bring in a government agency to resolve
our issues. Most of the time our solutions are right in your own
community.
We had an amazing turnout. People step up to the plate. We had
volunteers, sponsors. We had people -- one sponsor pay for the Friday
night's dinner. It was exceptional the turnout of this youth hunt. And
I just want to thank the County Commissioners for giving us the
opportunity to show what we can put together and help the youth out
here in the community.
Thank you.
MR. MITCHELL: Tom Taylor, and he's your last speaker.
MR. TAYLOR: Probably never expected to see me again to talk
about Pepper Ranch.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: You want to buy it back?
MR. TAYLOR: What's the appraised value?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Twice what it was before.
MR. TAYLOR: You know, from my perspective this youth hunt
couldn't have gone any better.
I thank the County Commission for giving the public the
opportunity to go out there, the kids, to experience a very special
property. And I think the kids and their parents and, to be honest with
you, many of the volunteers and guides that were out there, just
couldn't believe what they were seeing. They'd never seen game like
this in Florida before.
And I've been very pleased with the way -- the direction that the
public dialogue has gone on this youth hunting and the overall hunting
dialogue.
What you have before you, I guess, today is what I would hope
would be something of a work in progress. It is very well done.
There's been very good input from the public in these public meetings.
Page 50
April 27, 2010
People have been pretty much on the same page. You kind of
wondered where people were going to come from, but it's been people
that were very much interested in conserving the wildlife and the
wildlife habitat.
The -- what came out of the youth hunt, one of the things that
came out of it, was this discussion about whether it ought to be more
focused on youth as opposed to adult. And in order to really properly
vet that, I think we should go back and have another public meeting or
two, just as we've had other meetings, and see what much of the
consensus might be along these lines.
So if you remand this back to staff for a little bit more discussion,
I'm sure we'll come to a good conclusion. Thank you.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Was that the last public speaker?
MR. MITCHELL: That was the last speaker.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Commissioner Henning?
COMMISSIONER HENNING: I make a motion that we
continue this item and ask our county manager to have two public
hearings on the management plan for Pepper Ranch.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: I'm sorry. I'd like to second the
motion. Would you repeat it again? To be able to send it back to staff
to have public meetings?
COMMISSIONER HENNING: I'm going to -- my motion was
to continue this item and ask the county manager to have two public
meetings for the management plan and get public input.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: May I help you just a little bit
with it, sir? May I suggest public meetings be held with staff
sometime in the evening then brought back to the commission for a
meeting so that the thought process could be put together in a more
meaningful way? It would save this commission a lot of time and it
would get right to the bottom of the direction we're going to go. It'd
still have it come before the commission at least one time to be able to
be approved to review it again.
Page 51
April 27, 2010
COMMISSIONER HENNING: So I'll amend my motion to have
those public meetings that the county manager will direct to staff to do
in the evening.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Then brought back to the
commission for final -- well, yeah. I'll second that.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Commissioner Halas?
COMMISSIONER HALAS: I have one question for staff. If we
open this up for adult hunting, my concern -- and maybe it isn't even a
concern at all -- but do we have that land well posted so that the
hunting only relates to organized hunting so people don't go on there
and feel that this is an open area to hunt at any time, that it has to be
approved by an organizational hunt so we don't end up poaching or
whatever else?
MS. HENNIG: Melissa Hennig, principal environmental
specialist.
We don't at this time, but that was the plan if this was to be
approved; we were going to get out there and post it.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Okay.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. I just have a couple questions,
and I'm in support of having additional thought put into this thing.
But it seems to me that we're going to have a series of meetings
to get to a conclusion that we don't really need to do if we can provide
some additional guidance today. And it seems to me that the critical
decision that has to be made is whether this is going to be -- the
hunting on this property is going to be restricted to youth hunts that
are supervised and well controlled, or will it be open to the public
even under the same kinds of controls and hunting zones, assignments,
as are currently in effect? Because it is when you get away from the
controls that you begin to have lots of problems.
And what I'm specifically talking about, when you've got an
experienced hunter with the youth, they are hunting, that's a very well
controlled process, but when you assign a hunting zone to a hunter
Page 52
April 27, 2010
who is not supervised and not guided, you're going to get all kinds of
problems.
And I can tell you that most military reservations in the United
States permit this kind of hunting, but it's very, very controlled. You
can't go outside your hunting zone, you cannot hunt from the ground
in most cases, you cannot stalk animals, because they don't want
people walking through the woods. They have designated stand sites,
and you shoot from a stand, and there are identified fields of fire
which are acceptable.
Now, on the map I don't see any indication that there's a
recognition that there are homes, private residences, on the east side,
southeast side, of that property. And I think that's very, very
important.
So if you're going to talk about making it only a youth hunt, what
you've got is really great. It's a good thing. But if you expand it
beyond that, you've got a lot more work to do. And so we need to
make a decision, I think, as quickly as possible about whether or not
this should be specifically limited to youth hunts or it would be
opened up to everybody on a controlled basis, of course; not just open
the gates and say, go in and hunt, but opened up on a controlled basis.
And Commissioner Coletta?
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Yes. And, you know, I just --
everything you said is absolutely true, but if we follow the format
that's already been put into this -- I'm not sure if it needs to be
modified -- it does everything you said. Fields of fire are limited to
just certain direction, you're told that you can't fire past this point,
you've got the hunting guide standing right by the person. If for some
reason they get excited and start tracking an animal across the field,
they stop them right at that point in time. So it's contained, very
contained.
You have two different controls there, being the guardian and the
hunting guide. Those particular things are no problem at all. That, I
Page 53
April 27, 2010
think, would meet all your criteria. And I'm sure that none of that
would be changed as we go forward.
As far as rifles go, which I think is what you were trying to get
to, limiting the field of fire removes any kind of objection, because
whatever direction the homes are, even though they're quite a distance
away, you just don't allow any fire to go in that particular direction,
and having two people overseeing every youth eliminates that
responsibility of it happening.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Well, the key question though is, it is a
youth hunt that is supervised with some experienced person with each
one of those hunters. That's the key.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Right.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Where you get into problems is just
saying, okay, you're going to be assigned hunting zone number five,
and that's yours for the day, and you just go on out there and start
hunting. Something is -- bad is going to happen.
The people walking on the ground and firing a high - powered rifle
in that area is likely to cause a problem at some point in time.
If you're going to specify stands, stands ought to be designated,
and people ought to know where they are, and they should understand
you don't leave that stand and start walking through the adjacent
hunting areas. So there -- it's important.
But the way you've got it right now for children, or for youth, is a
great way to do it. It's well controlled and you've got the right idea.
So the question we have to answer is, are we going to do it for
youth hunts only, or are we going to migrate into some other hunting
process that allows any licensed hunter to go into the property and
hunt without having a guide? That's the question.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: I can kind of get to the point on
that.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: In the -- because I attended all
Page 54
April 27, 2010
of the meetings that took place, and also I survived the two days of the
youth hunt on the ground and the whole business. And it rained, too,
by the way.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Good, good.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: But in any case, at no point in
time, if the general public was going to be allowed on the land, there
was all sorts of restrictions on them, too, even checking in, checking
out, assigned places they could be, when they could travel.
The youth hunt is even more restrictive in the fact that you're not
out all day in the blind. You're out there for a period in the morning,
then you come back, you have a lunch, you go through different other
classes, informational, and then you go back in the afternoon again for
another two or three hours, two - and -a -half hours or so out there again.
Very, very controlled in the amount of time somebody's out there. A
lot of activities other than just the hunt itself.
But the general public, if it ever came down to it -- and you have
in your folder a little bit of a breakdown as far as what the thought
was, if it was going to be a general hunt. The general public would
not have access to this land.
There's just -- it's such a limited resource. You can only allow
like eight to ten people on it at a time, a couple times, or one time
maybe once a month. It's going to have to be by some sort of random
draw or some sort of point system so people will always get
consideration for it, something similar to what they do on CREW.
They have some hunts like this on CREW. They're very, very limited.
People might apply year after year before they actually get a position
to be able to hunt on the land for that particular type of game that
they're seeking.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. I understand all that. I've done
hundreds of these things. I just -- once you don't have someone
supervising the hunter, you have no idea what the hunter's doing,
okay. And if it's a youth hunt and you're going to supervise them,
Page 55
April 27, 2010
that's wonderful. I'm real happy with that, and I'd be real happy if you
restricted it to the youth hunts. But nevertheless.
Okay. We have a motion on the floor for -- by Commissioner
Henning, seconded by Commissioner Coletta.
And any further discussion?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: All in favor, please signify by saying
aye.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Aye.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Aye.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Aye.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Aye.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Aye.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Any opposed, by like sign?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Thank you.

April 27, 2010
APPROVED
MR. OCHS: Commissioners, that takes us to Item l0A on your
agenda this morning. It is a recommendation to review potential
changes to the impact fee program for existing commercial
redevelopment. Ms. Amy Patterson, Manager of Impact Fees in
EDClCDES, will present.
MS. PATTERSON: Good morning. Amy Patterson, for the
record. I can go straight to your questions or I have a brief
presentation.
I'm here -- no -- at the board's direction. I only have one thing to
put on the record, and that is that we attended the Productivity
Committee meeting last Wednesday, and the Productivity Committee,
by majority vote, endorsed the recommendations of staff and DSAC
regarding the changes to the program, and those are detailed in the
executive summary.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Now, I've taken the liberty of
trying to consolidate the recommendation. Can I read them to you to
make sure that they are, in fact, correct?
MS. PATTERSON: Sure.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Number one is that we would revise the
system to provide for buildings that are three years old or older with
an age -in process.
MS. PATTERSON: That's correct.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Number two is, eliminate impact
fee review for zoning certificates or business tax receipts?
MS. PATTERSON: That's correct.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Number three is, the impact fee credits
run with the land in perpetuity.
MS. PATTERSON: That's right.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: And number four, explore impact fee
revisions for small medical offices with leases and the impacts with
Page 57
April 27, 2010
lesser impacts --
MS. PATTERSON: That's correct.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: -- than traditional medical offices.
MS. PATTERSON: That's correct.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Motion to approve.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Second.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: So I've covered them all, right?
MS. PATTERSON: Yes.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. And the motion would cover all
those -- all those provisions.
Okay. We have a motion by Commissioner Henning and a
second by Commissioner Coletta.
And Commissioner Halas?
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Oh, that was from the last time, sir.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Oh, okay. I'm sorry.
All right. Is there any further discussion?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. All in favor, please signify by
saying aye.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Aye.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Aye.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Aye.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Aye.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Aye.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Any opposed, by like sign?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Good job.
MS. PATTERSON: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: The bean counters just walked in.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Who did what'?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: The bean counters just walked in.

Item #I OB
REFINANCING $59,893,000 IN OUTSTANDING COMMERCIAL
PAPER LOANS THROUGH THE ISSUANCE OF TRADITIONAL
TAX EXEMPT FIXED RATE BONDS — APPROVED
MR. OCHS: Commissioners, that takes you to Item IOB on your
agenda, which is a recommendation to refinance $59,893,000 in
outstanding commercial paper loans through the issuance of traditional
tax exempt fix -rate bonds. Mr. Mark Isackson, Corporate Financial
and Management Services Director, will present.
MR. ISACKSON: Thank you, County Manager.
Good morning, Commissioners. For the record, Mark Isackson
with the County Manager's Office.
Before you today is a rather weighty matter relative to our debt
structure and also, as we approach our FY2011 budget cycle, there's a
recommendation before you to refinance $59.8 million in outstanding
commercial paper loans through the issuance of traditional tax exempt
fixed -rate bonds.
Over the past few months, members of the finance committee, as
well as our designated financial consultant of record, our bond
counsel, members of the County Attorney's Office, have been
reviewing this matter with an eye toward providing the board with a
recommendation on how we handle a potential bullet coming up in
December of 2012, which will be anywhere between 47- and $60
million in commercial paper loans which will come due under our
current letter of credit provider, Wachovia, through the Florida Local
Government Finance Commission.
With that in mind, the committee set forth a rather aggressive
schedule in reviewing all available options, and we are at this point in
.0_. s'
April 27, 2010
time based on their review and analysis.
Before I go on, I'd like to introduce some of the members of the
committee as well as others who are involved in this process who
devoted quite a bit of time and effort, lended their expertise to this
to this review.
Sergio Masvidal from Public Financial Management consultants
is here; Director of Financial and Clerk of Court's agency, Crystal
Kinzel; Derek Johnssen, the Accounting Manager for the Clerk of
Courts Finance Division; and Susan Usher in the Office of
Management and Budget; Jim Gibson, who is a member of your
Productivity Committee, was instrumental also in sitting down and
lending his expertise to this review and analysis; Jeff Klatzkow was
involved also; on the finance committee, Tom Widis, from the Public
Utilities Division; and Bala Sridhar was also an active participant in
the process.
The county has been actively involved in commercial paper since
1991. We issued -- took down our first loan of about $13.7 million
back in 1991 to finance a road project. Since then we have issued
some $275 million in commercial paper.
We are now down to 12 loans, and those loans currently have an
outstanding value of $59.8 million. The county's been served well by
this program.
Over the course of the time that we've been involved with it, our
interest rate has been about 3.36 percent average historical interest rate
through the issuance of commercial paper. But we're now faced with
a situation where certain things will happen if the county's not
proactive in at least recognizing the fact that we have this outstanding
debt and taking some proactive steps in trying to try and manage it.
The $59.8 million or some pay -down amount thereof will be due
in December of 2012. And given the financial constraints that exist in
the market right now, our current lender of credit provider, Wachovia,
through the program, the Local Government Finance Commission,
April 27, 2010
will not be renewed.
So at that point in time we're faced with a decision. Those
decisions are outlined for your review on Page 2 of 7 of the executive
summary continuing to Page 3. The first aspect of the review talked
about proceeding with our current practice of paying down the
commercial paper debt with an eye toward determining how we would
find, for lack of a better term, between 47 and $60 million in a lump
sum payment in December of 2012.
That option wasn't very appealing to members of our committee.
And while we reviewed it, we provided you with some advantages and
disadvantages connected with that on Page 12. It was not a serious
matter for consideration.
The second option which we thought was worthy of discussion
revolved essentially extending commercial paper with another letter of
credit provider. Sometime between now and December of 2012, we
would, in fact, identify a secondary letter of credit provider and then
proceed to negotiate a refinancing of the current outstanding balance
at that time.
The third item was to essentially take out/refinance the current
outstanding balance at the current $59.8 million right now, and that
option seemed to have some momentum with our committee members,
have momentum with those who are in financial markets, bearing the
fact that interest rates are at a historical low right now.
So those were the essential elements of the analysis we did, and
the recommendation before you is to refinance the current $59.8
million in commercial paper loans through a traditional tax
development fixed -rate financing. That would be under a, what we
call, a covenant to budget and appropriate where all legally available
non -ad valorem revenues would be pledged toward a payment --
repayment of this debt over a 25 -year period.
In addition to the finance committee recommendation, which was
unanimous, the matter was also brought forth to the Productivity
Page 61
April 27, 2010
Committee last Wednesday. Jim Gibson, member of the committee,
introduced the topic. And as I understand it, that was unanimous and
endorsed also by the Productivity Committee, this recommendation.
So in a nutshell, what staff is asking the board to approve is the
direction of the county manager or his designee, along with the county
attorney and the county financial representatives and legal advisers, to
proceed with the preparation of all necessary documents to refinance
$59.8 million in commercial paper debt through the issuance of
fixed -rate financing.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Commissioner Halas?
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Yes. I just wanted to reiterate that
this was brought before the Productivity Committee, it was very well
vetted, and that Jim Gibson put together a very good presentation, and
the end result was this was approved overwhelmingly by everyone on
the Productivity Committee.
And I think that we need to move forward in this, and I'll make a
motion that we go ahead and refinance this through fixed -rate bonds.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Second the motion.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. We have a motion to approve by
Commissioner Halas, second by Commissioner Fiala.
And Commissioner Henning?
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Well, I don't think we have a
choice in the matter. That's -- that's a real issue is, we don't have a
choice. And my concern is incurring more debt in a down market, less
revenue, less fees, and we're still approving projects that we really
don't know if we're going to have the money in the future.
So -- and I've said it over and over and over, we don't have the
income problem. We have a spending problem, and this is a result of
it. So I hope in the future that we can slow down spending money that
we're -- we know we're not going to have in the future. That's for my
colleagues.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Commissioner Fiala?
Page 62
April 27, 2010
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Yep. Just a little defense to that.
When we started borrowing this money when we first took over years
ago, they had stopped spending any money to repair things, to
improve things, to widen own our roads, to fix our water treatment
plants, et cetera, but they did save the taxpayers money.
When we took over, we had a stinking landfill, we had a seeping
wastewater treatment plant, we had growth that hadn't been repaired in
ever so long, and we knew that we had to bite the bullet and spend that
money in order to get these things repaired and brought up to -- up to
standards before -- and as it was, the state still crashed down on us
because we were so lack, lack and lackadaisical, in doing this work.
So anyway, I appreciate what you say. At the same time, that
money wasn't spent frivolously. We had to spend that money in order
to improve health, safety, and welfare of our citizens.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Commissioner Coletta?
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Well said.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: And also it went to building
some median improvements and also two new libraries during that
period, which were much in demand by the public.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Not to mention the rock roads.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: I didn't say anything about lime
rock roads, Commissioner Coyle. But since you gave me the opening,
ladies and gentlemen, please support limerock road paving in Golden
Gate Estates. Write Commissioner Coyle a letter telling him you
support it. Thank you.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: For more limerock roads or for
blacktopping limerock roads?
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Well, for blacktopping limerock
roads.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. We have a motion to approve it,
right?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Yes.
Page 63
April 27, 2010
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Any further discussion?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: All in favor, please signify by saying
aye.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Aye.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Aye.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Aye.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Aye.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Aye.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Any opposed, by like sign?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: It passes unanimously.
MR. OCHS: Thank you, Commissioners.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: We're running out of things to do here,
County Manager.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Good.
MR. OCHS: Yes, sir, we are, indeed. We have one other staff
item, but that's a 1:30 time certain. It's difficult to know the day
before when you have these pulls of exactly how much time we're
going to take on each one.
So we've got a 1:30 time certain after your 1:00 p.m. public
hearing under 8A. Other than that, I don't know if you want to take
public comment on general topics now, Mr. Chairman, or wait
towards the end of the meeting.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: I don't know that we have any public
comment on general topics, so --
COMMISSIONER HENNING: One question on the agenda.
Don't we have 16D 14.
MR. OCHS: Yes, sir. That's the 1:30 time - certain item.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: 1:30 time certain.
MR. OCHS: It got set for 1:30.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Who did that?
April 27, 2010
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Commissioner Coletta.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Oh, I see. I see.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: You blame everything on Commissioner
Coletta today. He's the one that messed up the calendar.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: And we're getting paid by the
hour, aren't we?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: No, no.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: My mistake.
Item #15
STAFF AND COMMISSION GENERAL COMMUNICATIONS
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. If we don't have public comment,
we can certainly have any comments from the county manager.
MR. OCHS: Under 15, sir?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: We normally save it till the end of
meting, but we can do it now.
MR. OCHS: Yes, sir. I have nothing this morning.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: County Attorney?
MR. KLATZKOW: I have nothing either.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: You guys are supposed to say
something.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Commissioner Fiala?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Yes. I do have something.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Just recently it came to my attention
-- actually I went out to breakfast with Mark Strain from the Planning
Commission. And we were talking about another issue altogether
when he brought up the fact that, had I noticed back when that
inclusionary -- the affordable housing policy 1.4 had been changed?
We started to talk about it, and he brought the copies.
Page 65
April 27, 2010
What had -- when we were talking about inclusionary zoning
back in 2007 -- and we were all focused on that, so was the Planning
Commission, so were our attorneys, so was our staff -- nobody saw the
little change in 1.4.
Before it said, affordable housing will be distributed equitably
throughout the county. It was changed to, unbeknownst to any of us,
Collier County shall seek to distribute affordable housing equitably
which, of course, changes the whole context of it.
And I wanted to bring that to your attention because -- I talked to
our attorneys about that. Steve researched that for me. And I would
like to change it back to the way it was.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: We'll have to put it on the agenda, right?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Yes.
MR. KLATZKOW: No. You'd have to make it part of your
Comp. Plan changes. I guess the next time would be the EAR -based
amendments, Nick?
MR. OCHS: Yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: We could move it back to the way it was
before that where the -- all the affordable housing would be placed in
Commissioner Fiala's district.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: It is already.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: No, we've got some inn District 2.
MR. CASALANGUIDA: Nick Casalanguida. You have an
EAR -based cycle that's going on right now. We'll take that guidance
to make that correction through the process.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Let's make sure you've got a majority of
commissioners who agree to that.
Are there three nods or not?
COMMISSIONER HENNING: I need to comprehend that
again. Now, what are you saying?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: I said that initially our Comp. Plan
said that affordable housing will be distributed equitably throughout
'._- ..
April 27, 2010
the county. That was written in 1997.
In 2007 somebody who isn't even with the county anymore
changed those words to, Collier County shall seek to distribute
affordable housing equitably.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Now, because of land values,
how are you going to force that? I don't know. I mean, when you
make a commitment to distribute it equitably, I think that's noble, very
noble, but the way it was before, there's no way that you could do it.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Well, it's interesting because also, if
you remember way back, we had a report that said that we were
30,000 affordable housing units short and that -- you know, crisis,
crisis, crisis.
And I've been talking with Nick, and I said, I'd love to have a
count of where they are and how much we have. And, of course, Nick
could only give me what the state says we can count, and that are
homes that were built with SHIP fund. SHIP wasn't, of course,
created till 1996, so that means nothing in Golden Gate City was ever
in the count because they were not built with SHIP funds, nothing in
Golden Gate Estates because they're all single - family homes. They
were never built with SHIP funds, so they're not in the count.
And, of course, there are 17,479 in East Naples that were not in
the count because they were all built -- like Naples Manor, for
instance; all built before 1996.
Now, I tried to point that out to everybody at the time, and
everybody looked at me as though I were green and had horns. You
know, where in the heck am I coming from? Nobody believed a
thing, and here it was in black and white paper.
So Nick then -- I asked Nick to take a look, and he said, actually
the count was correct. According to state standards, the only thing you
could count were units that were built with SHIP funds, but the
existing units that are actually here that people are living in are not in
the count.
Page 67
April 27, 2010
And so I asked -- I asked Nick to give me a count of both. It's
going to be interesting to see what we have.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Well, just to stay on the topic.
MR. CASALANGUIDA: Sure.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: On the language that's bein
discussed --
g
CHAIRMAN COYLE: It's a continuation.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Yeah. I know it's a
continuation, Commissioner Coyle, but why have staff do something
if you can't make it happen? So that's the clarification that I have is,
when you say distribute affordable housing throughout Collier County
and it's being changed to -- or it is now, the county shall seek, how are
you going to get affordable housing in Port Royal? How are you
going to get affordable housing in Grey Oaks? How are you going to
do that if you change the language back?
MR. CASALANGUIDA: It's -- the mechanism will be difficult
to enforce. I think what the commission and I discussed is that as you
review projects that would come forward as PUDs or land use
changes, that you would use that guidance to "shall require" equal
distribution to make those land use decisions. But you're correct, I
couldn't force affordable housing into one community. It would be
guidance for the commissioners to review land use projects that came
forward under that criteria.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Well, don't you think, on getting
to Commissioner Coletta -- Commissioner Fiala's point is, the board
can be more restrictive than the state, is to count affordable housing
by, you know, what the cost is instead of what was -- what was
actually built prior?
Really check our inventory. I think that would be a more prudent
thing than to change this language, because that aspect -- she's been
right for quite a while is -- we're not -- we're not counting all those
even though -- just because government wasn't involved doesn't mean
April 27, 2010
it's not out there. Can we do that instead of --
MR. CASALANGUIDA: Sure.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Okay.
MR. CASALANGUIDA: We can look at -- the issue that the
state will bring to us is, these are affordable housing by contract that
you can't change. The market would regulate that different area. So
we may show one year an area that's affordable for market price, and
then the following year as the market comes up, they would jump out
of that affordable housing range.
So what we'd report back to the state is what we've done with
development instead of, by contract, affordable. That wouldn't
change. So we can provide that information to the board to look at so
you can make an informed decision. But we can't guarantee those
prices would stay affordable.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: And the counts would change.
MR. CASALANGUIDA: Exactly.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: All right. Okay.
Commissioner Coletta?
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Yeah. Nick, I take it you're
quoting from some sort of a study that you did?
MR. CASALANGUIDA: No. We've done -- what we would do,
as part of the EAR -based amendments, when we come through and do
our EAR review, we look at how well we've done in placing
affordable housing throughout the county. So you're going to get a
copy of that report as it comes through in the year. What the
commissioners brought up is that we can't count just
market - priced -based affordable housing as part of that review.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Market price, isn't that what
makes affordable housing affordable?
MR. CASALANGUIDA: Well, no. These are by contract. The
ones that we show on our review as part of the EAR are by contract.
The developers have said, we'll include so many units of --
Apri127, 2010
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: So in other words, an affordable
house for -- and I guess we're taking the median average income of
Collier County -- which is what, $60,000?
MR. CASALANGUIDA: Yeah. I don't know the number.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: I don't know what it is today. It
fluctuates all over the place --
MR. CASALANGUIDA: Right.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: -- against a house -- in other
words, we could put -- they could move into what can be considered
affordable, would be what, 110 -, $120,000?
MR. CASALANGUIDA: Right. And like, for instance, the
Estates would be a good example. You have homes right now that
would be in that affordable price range, but there's no guarantee that
they would stay that price through contract.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Right. No, I understand that.
And you're looking for something that's going to be capped. And I
think the whole thing is very difficult.
Here's the problem we've got. What is equitable? You got one
district, my district, District 5, which is about 85 percent of the
county. So would equitable be the same amount of affordable housing
that would be in Commissioner Coyle's district? That won't work
because Commissioner Coyle is built out.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Right.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: If they do anything there,
they've got to do a retrofit to be able to fit it in. District 5 is probably
the only place left where there will be development in the future. Am I
correct, Commissioner?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: You're absolutely right.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Correct. But we don't want to
do it on limerock roads, I can tell you right now.
But that's the whole issue is that if we try to come up with
something that's equitable, where does equitable fit into the whole
Page 70
April 27, 2010
thing? That's the problem when you figure most of it's going to be
going east of 951 in the future. It's inevitable. There's no other place
it's going to go.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Well, if it has to go east of 951, it
should at least be spread out. The problem -- and we've known this
historically from other cities that we've visited, that we've lived in.
When you -- when you pack it all into one area, you also create
situations that are not comfortable to live in, and eventually they have
to mow them all down and then distribute them equitably.
And our laws did say they were supposed to be distributed
equitably, not only that, but the state statutes said that. Now --
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: But I guess the whole thing is is
the definition of equitable.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Well, I understand that. Do you feel
that Immokalee has been distributed equitably?
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Well, I think it's been a -- in the
past, more by choice to be able to try to take care of the population
that exists there, and it worked quite well. I mean, in spite of the
opinion of a lot, Immokalee does not have a high crime rate.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Oh, I know.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: It's a close community.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: I know.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: It doesn't have a problem with
the affordable housing issue, I guess because there's so much of it, you
know, it's pretty acceptable.
The thing is is the kind of people you have living in Immokalee
are family -based people. They're not people that are moving in and out
on a regular basis. They're for generations to come.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Let's get back to equitably. You
asked that question. I'm just saying that if an area is already
oversaturated and somebody wants to build more, would you put it in
an oversaturated area or deny it? Gives you the ability to deny if you
Page 71
April 27, 2010
feel that it isn't a correct location.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Well, I think you do that PUD
by PUD and what they're going to do to address it. Now, we never
come up with a definitive housing policy. We've come up with some
great ideas in the past, and they've been more guidelines than anything
else and, of course, we put them all aside when this economy went
south back about three years ago.
But how do you balance something like this out? When that
point in time comes you have a need for it, can I -- if it's in District 5
or District 3 or your district, doesn't matter.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Doesn't make any difference who's
district.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: You weigh everything on a
case -by -case basis with what's taking place. I don't know how we can
get there equitably, because if all of a sudden we wanted to make it
equitable, then anything new that's going out in my district -- and
that's where future building's going to go -- I mean, they're talking
possibly another five new townships over the next 40 years.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Should they contain any affordable
housing; do you think?
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Well, they -- that's it, they
should. So if you try to say one district has to have the same share as
everyone else, then this --
COMMISSIONER FIALA: But we're not talking districts.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: -- means that it won't happen in
District 5.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: It doesn't say anything about
districts.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: But it says equitable. What's the
definition of equitable?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: So in other words, were you aware
that they'd changed this?
Page 72
April 27, 2010
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Well, now that you pointed it
out, I really don't have a problem with the change because it's -- it gets
to be one of those arguable type of terms which we go back and forth
with continuously. Once again, we're going to come down to, what is
equitable? Does it mean that one area can't have it within a certain
geographic area where another one has to have it?
I agree with you. But the best thing in this world, the fairest
thing in this world, is to require every district, every square mile to
have X number of units. We're not going to get there.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Well, you can't do that. I mean,
you've got places that are already built out. That isn't the point. The
point is, the point is, distribute it equitably. Now, that's the point.
And obviously you don't feel that that's a good policy.
The matter behind this is if, indeed, something comes before us
and we feel that there's an oversaturation in one area -- and I don't say
district. I never go by districts. I always feel that we work for the
whole county, not by districts, and we should always work for the
entire county. If we feel that it's an oversaturation of an area, then we
can say no, the Growth Management Plan says distribute equitably,
and this isn't.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Well, once again, we've dealt
with it with the PUDs before. We required Ave Maria and Heritage
Bay to include a percentage, 15 to 20 percent, of affordable housing
within their realm. In the case of Ave Maria, they were able to
purchase some land just outside of there for Habitat for Humanity to
offset some of the need. There're beautiful ways to get there.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Tell me why you're fighting this.
What's the real reason behind it?
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: I'm not fighting it. It's just that I
don't want to limit these future towns in my district to have affordable
housing. I want to make sure they're going to be able to have it. And
I've got a feeling that this is going to be -- if we're going to use the
Page 73
April 27, 2010
word equitable, somebody's going to come back to us some day and
they're going to say, you know, even though that town's 20 miles away
from where I live, you know, District 5 has it's more -- has over its fair
share. They have the majority of it. Why are we taking more of it on?
I mean, the area's so big it could be another county in itself Don't get
any ideas, Commissioner Coyle.
But that's the whole thing, Commissioner Fiala. It's not so much
I'm trying to force something down in your district, District 1. I'm
concerned about how we're going to handle the future growth and the
need for affordable housing. Right now the problem is negligeable.
No. It's not your turn to speak.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: I don't have a button, so I can't press it.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: You can use mine. There you
go.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Maybe I can propose a compromise that
might solve the problem. Clearly I think the problem that
Commissioner Fiala is addressing has been created not just by SHIP
type housing but by the changes in value of the homes that already
existed there, the fact that a lot of them were not expensive homes and
have -- never have been. And if they weren't counting those things,
then you are getting a higher percentage of those SHIP - funded homes
that are sort of being forced in there.
If we make our decisions based upon all of the affordable
housing available in Collier County and we try to have the affordable
housing built in areas -- in new, new PUDs, then that will provide an
opportunity to make that distribution without even mentioning the
equitable issue, because all the decisions we'll be making in the future
will be through either PUDs or grant awards to build affordable
housing. Is that not true?
MR. CASALANGUIDA: That's true.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. So we won't -- we can't really
change much of what's already happened, but we can do this. We can
Page 74
April 27, 2010
count all of the affordable housing in East Naples and everyplace else
because it is absolutely ridiculous and irresponsible to count only the
SHIP housing, because we have a lot of affordable housing in Collier
County now.
MR. CASALANGUIDA: Correct.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. So let's start counting it all, and
then in future PUDs we'll make our decisions based upon our need for
more affordable housing, and we might find, at least for the next
several years, four or five years, we won't have a need for more
affordable housing so there won't be more built.
So I guess that would be my proposal is that we just adopt a
policy that says, we're going to count all of the affordable housing in
Collier County.
MR. CASALANGUIDA: We can do that.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: And we will make our decisions
accordingly, if -- does that make sense?
MR. CASALANGUIDA: Yes, it does. It's based on income. It's
a ratio between the income and the price of the -- correct.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. And you've got different levels of
affordable housing, so you're going to have to divide it into categories.
MR. CASALANGUIDA: We can do that.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: And -- it won't be as easy as it sounds,
but I'm sure you can -- you can manage it. I mean, you've got two free
days each week, Saturday and Sunday, so you can work it out.
MR. CASALANGUIDA: We can do a snapshot study of what's
out there on an annual basis.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay, all right.
MR. CASALANGUIDA: Again, it's not going to be -- it's going
to be by regions, maybe, you know, qualified to say East Naples,
Naples Manor, Golden Gate City, the Estates, and say, a certain
percentage is at this value, and based on income, the median income,
would qualify -- people could qualify to purchase these homes, you
Page 75
April 27, 2010
get a feel for what's out there. But it's not regulated like the affordable
housing requirement is for a PUD.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: But it exists.
MR. CASALANGUIDA: But it exists?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: And we would be foolish to ignore that
fact.
MR. CASALANGUIDA: Understood.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Yes. The reason I -- I think the
thing that bothered me the most about this change --
CHAIRMAN COYLE: We didn't know about it.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: -- none of us knew. It was -- it was
passed without us even knowing it was happening, and that aggravates
the daylights out of me. Why not be upfront about things? That was
the whole basis. But anyway, I would like it changed back so it gives
us, as we vote, a leg to stand on.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: County Manager, can we try to make
sure that things of this nature don't occur in the future, that we -- we
are apprised of changes?
MR. OCHS: Yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Comment?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Yes, go ahead.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: It's related to this.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Go ahead.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: It has to do with the fact, am I
correct in that fact that, what we're doing now is that all SHIP funds
we're receiving now, almost without exception, are being dedicated for
purchasing and renovating foreclosed homes, or a good part of it is?
MR. OCHS: No, sir. That's a separate program. That's your
Neighborhood Stabilization Program. That's federal grant money that
came down last year, so -- but your SHIP money's a separate money
Page 76
April 27, 2010
that's used either for housing rehabilitation or down payment
assistance for income - qualified --
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Is there any possibility that we
might be able to revisit how that SHIP funds are spent? I mean, do we
want to create more affordable housing when there's still some out
there, to see if they can purchase the homes? I think it has to do with
the 60 percent below income people that we're concerned with that
might not fit into it; is that correct? Is there a possibility the SHIP
funds could be dedicated to purchase foreclosed homes? And we
could disperse the population of lower - income families throughout the
whole community?
MR. OCHS: Yes, sir. We can use SHIP in addition to NSP grant
funds for purchase of foreclosed homes, if that's what the board would
prefer. But we --
MS. RAMSEY: We're currently doing that.
The SHIP, the way that it works right now -- and we have no
money for this fiscal year. We are spending off the last allocation that
we have. We've got about a million dollars left. We've got about
another year, year and a half in order to spend that. But we have not
been allocated new SHIP money for this fiscal year, and it doesn't
look like it's coming for next fiscal year either.
And what we're doing right now is, we had a long discussion not
that many months ago that took it from like 15 -, $20,000 down to
about $3,000. Closing costs is basically what we're covering with
SHIP dollars at this moment. And if you're income qualified for the
SHIP dollars, you can use them on an NSP purchased house as well.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Thank you very much.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: So I take it that nobody wants to
change this back to the wording that it had always been?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: We have three nods?
(No response.)
Page 77
April 27, 2010
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Okay. Thank you, fellows. I
appreciate your help and cooperation.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Oh, we're going to help with you.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: I have to -- one more time. The
reason I'm not going to support it is because I recognize that my
district in the future is going to have to have more affordable housing.
I don't want it to be eliminated from that consideration by the word
equitable and no definition for equitable. So it's not trying to put
something on you, Commissioner Fiala.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Okay.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Is it my turn now?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Yeah. Your light's not on, but you
certainly can, yes.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: I just -- under my comments, I
just want to say, I had a great experience with the park ranger systems.
They're very helpful, and I had a great experience.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Good, good. What did you do?
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Well, I mean, it was just very
helpful, the parks -- park ranger was very helpful.
MR. OCHS: Thank you, sir.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: That's all the comments I have, if you
want to move on to another commissioner.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. We'll go to Commissioner Halas.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Yes, thank you.
In the Productivity Committee there was discussion about,
whereby it was discussed and approved unanimously that a letter be
directed to the school board, preferably Superintendent Thompson,
that we would like to have someone in the management position that
deals with the finances of the school board to have a seat at the table
so that a discussion can be made hopefully for cost containment that
could help the public perception about our stewardship of tax dollars
and that we could share ideas in regards to how to address taxes here
April 27, 2010
in Collier County.
And I said I would bring this before the board, that either the
letter would be coming from me, since it's -- I'm a representative of the
Productivity Committee, or I would also throw out there that the letter
could come from the Chair of the Board of County Commissioners.
So this is hopefully an olive branch that we can bring the school
board to sit and discuss issues and to have a big overall concept of
where we're going in Collier County here with trying to meet the
budget requirements for FY2011.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: I think it's a good idea, and I wouldn't
have any problem having it come from Commissioner Halas as the
liaison to the Productivity Committee.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Okay.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Commissioner?
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Well, knowing the ordinance is
to ask the Productivity Committee to take a look at the county
financing, why would we want a member of the school administration
to have that input? Is that -- or is it that you -- we want to start telling
what -- the school board what they should do with their financing?
COMMISSIONER HALAS: No. This is basically to sit down
and have them realize what the Productivity Committee has been
working on for a number of years, and hopefully this would instill
some cost - cutting measures to the school board so that they have an
understanding that not only is the Board of County Commissioners,
but the school board, is working towards stewardship to make sure
that we're addressing their tax dollars and how they're being spent.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Addressing the school
administration tax dollars that we spend?
COMMISSIONER HALAS: No, sir. The tax dollars that the
school board spends, and maybe it would help instill them to take
under advisement that they need to do some cost - cutting measures the
same as we have done here under the Board of County
Page 79
April 27, 2010
Commissioners.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Okay. So we really should
probably change the ordinance, the Productivity Committee, to look at
school expenses?
COMMISSIONER HALAS: We're just asking them to -- we're
not changing any ordinance. We're just asking them to -- we'd like to
have them have a seat at the table and -- so they have an
understanding of the process that we're doing here, and hopefully they
can take that process to the school board and hopefully look at some
areas of responsibility so that all of us are basically focused on the
idea that we want to make sure that we, as taxpayers, all of us, are
looking very closely at how the expenditures are.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Any other questions?
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Any nods on this?
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: I'm sorry. Forgive me. I want to
support you on it, but I really don't understand exactly what they're
going to do. Could -- I would approve for it to come back under some
sort of presentation with the Productivity Committee here for the next
meeting.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Sure.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: I'd love to hear more on it. I
really would.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Okay. I think we can do that.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: All right.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Staff, we got -- is that okay with
you?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: We've got three nods on that one.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Okay. We'll have the chair come
back and present this --
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: -- of the Productivity Committee.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay, good. Anything else?
99M
April 27, 2010
COMMISSIONER HALAS: That's it.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. How about Commissioner
Coletta?
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: I think I've done enough today.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: You sure have.
And I don't have anything, so that means we are adjourned or --
no, we're in recess until 1:30,1 believe.
MR. OCHS: No, one p.m., sir. You have one advertised public
hearing under 8A.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: That's right. One at one o'clock, okay.
Then we'll be back here promptly at one o'clock.
MR. OCHS: Thank you, sir.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Thank you very much.
(A luncheon recess was had.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Ladies and gentlemen, the Board of
County Commissioners' meeting is back in session.

EAST COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA — ADOPTED
MR. OCHS: Commissioners, that takes you to Item 8A on your
agenda, advertised public hearings. This item has been continued from
the April 13, 2010, BCC meeting. It requires that all participants be
sworn in and ex parte disclosure be of provided by commission
members. It's PUD --
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Would everyone who is going to
be giving testimony in this hearing, please stand and raise your right to
be sworn in.
(The speakers were duly sworn and indicated in the affirmative.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Thank you very much.
Now, Commissioners, for ex parte. We'll start with
Commissioner Fiala this time.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Yes. I have the EAC staff report,
the March 5th staff report, supplemental staff report from February 4,
2010, meeting with Dwight Nadeau on April 14th, and a telephone
call from Dwight Nadeau on April 23rd. I've met with staff members,
I've talked with Planning Commission members; and I've done some
research, and I've read a whole lot of stuff. They're all here for public
viewing.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Commissioner Halas?
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Yes, thank you. I've had --
reviewed the staff report, I've had correspondence, and just prior to us
reconvening from a recess, I talked to the petitioner about any
particular items, and I think everything is good to go.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay, thank you.
And in addition to the correspondence, emails, meetings, so forth,
I had at the last meeting, last hearing, I have since then merely
m_ _ .
April 27, 2010
reviewed staff reports.
Commissioner Coletta?
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Yes, sir.
Yes. I've had meetings, correspondence, talked to Mark Strain
from the Planning Commission before it came before us the last time.
I talked to staff numerous times about it. That concludes what I got.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Thank you.
Commissioner Henning?
COMMISSIONER HENNING: I have the EAC's report and
Planning Commission staff s report.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Thank you very much.
Commissioner Fiala, you wanted to say something?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Yes. I forgot to mention that I also
met with Steve Williams, I've talked with our county attorney, Jeff
Klatzkow, and I believe I met with that gentleman over there, but I'm
afraid I don't remember your name. But anyway, he was in my office
also.
I'm sorry, I just want to make the report complete.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Thank you very much.
Now, the reason this is back before us is that Commissioner
Halas -- Fiala had some concerns about permitted uses in this PUD,
and so could we go directly to your concerns, Commissioner Fiala,
and see if they've been properly addressed?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Yes. I met with Dwight Nadeau and
Steve Williams from our County Attorney's Office the day after the
meeting. We discussed the -- these concerns at length. Then I guess
-- I guess the two of you have met as well.
And they came out with -- on Page 100 of 487 in today's agenda,
they've come out with all of the stipulations prohibiting certain land
uses that were of a concern to me. They're all here. They're written
into the record.
And with that, I would then make a motion to approve.
April 27, 2010
COMMISSIONER HALAS: I'll second that.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. We have a motion to approve by
Commissioner Fiala, second by Commissioner Halas.
MR. NADEAU: Commissioner, I do have to put one thing on
the record regarding my conversation with Commissioner Coletta.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay.
MR. NADEAU: During the discussion last time we were here,
Commissioner Coletta's line of questioning was, did we follow the
proper notice procedure, and how far did you notice?
We did follow the proper notice procedure for the neighborhood
information meeting. The distance was 500 feet, as I had initially
stated.
I did make statements on the record that we did send mailings
beyond 951 to the west. In fact, none of those mailings went to
anyone to -- west of 951; however, we did have direct
communications with the Naples Lakes folks, and it was a result of
those direct communications that we received correspondence which
led to the -- was in -- partially led to the installation of the new
prohibited uses, Section C. So I just wanted to get that on the record.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Bottom line is, did you meet the
regulatory requirements for notification?
MR. NADEAU: Yes, sir, we did.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. All right. Good. Thank you very
much.
So we have a motion and a second. Are there any questions by
the board or any discussion concerning the motion?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: All in favor, please signify by saying
aye.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Aye.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Aye.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Aye.
April 27, 2010
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Aye.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Aye.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Any opposed, by like sign?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: It is approved unanimously.
MR. NADEAU: Thank you, Commissioners.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Thank you.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Now, what are you going to do?
MR. OCHS: Commissioner, anybody know any good jokes?
COMMISSIONER FIALA: What are we going to do till 1:30?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Commissioner Fiala has some additional
correspondence and communications she wants to go through.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Oh, I'm done with you guys.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: We have no other business to take care
of until 1:30?
MR. OCHS: I'm afraid not, sir.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Just so everybody understands,
Commissioner Coletta is to blame for this.
MR. OCHS: I'll drink to that.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Point of correction, sir, is that I
didn't really ask for time - certains. I said between ten and 12 noon if
we could just tell people that. But by the gracious act of the Chair, he
was the one that made the time - certains for me, and for that I greatly
appreciate.
MR. OCHS: Well, not to argue, but the note from your office
said between ten and noon for the first two time - certains but didn't say
that you wanted this third one between ten and 12. So given that, I
didn't know how much time we'd have in the morning to get all three
in. So I apologize.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Commissioner?
COMMISSIONER HENNING: I have a clarification on this
item. We approved the agenda this morning with the time- certains on
Page 85
April 27, 2010
be here at 1:30.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Yeah, that's the problem.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: I see one person on this item,
and if we could maybe get some clarification. Or you don't feel
comfortable --
MR. KLATZKOW: I'm not comfortable. We could conclude
the item, and at 1:30 other people could show up.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Yeah. It's my understanding this thing
has been solved anyway, so I don't understand why we're doing this,
but nevertheless.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Just to amuse Commissioner
Coletta.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Yeah, probably. Once again,
don't we get paid by the hour?
COMMISSIONER HENNING: No.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Then does anybody have any
business to take care of for the next 23 minutes?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: No? Then we're going to go in recess
for another 23 minutes. We'll be back here at 1:30 to hear the next
time - certain item. Thank you very much.
(A brief recess was had.)
MR. OCHS: Commissioner, you have a live mike.
Item #10C
REPORT ON THE USE OF THE CONCESSION, BATTING
CAGES, PITCHING WALL, AND STORAGE AREA LOCATED
AT MAX HASSE COMMUNITY PARK BETWEEN GOLDEN
GATE AMERICAN LITTLE LEAGUE (GGALL) AND GOLDEN
GATE LITTLE LEAGUE SOFTBALL (GGLLS).
MOTION TO CONTINUE TO A FUTURE BCC MEETING WITH
April 27, 2010
THE 3 PARTY AGREEMENT PLACED ON THE CONSENT
AGENDA — APPROVED
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. Ladies and gentlemen, the Board
of County Commissioners is back in session in time for Commissioner
Coletta's time - certain item.
MR. OCHS: Yes, sir, Item IOC.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: IOC, that was previously 16D14.
MR. OCHS: That's correct, Mr. Chairman.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Yeah. If we could, I'd like to
cut right to the chase on this. We have a public speaker, Christy
Medred (sic); is that how you pronounce it?
MR. WILLIAMS: It's Keri Menard.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA:
MR. WILLIAMS: Keri Menard.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA:
Keri Menard?
Okay. I wasn't even close, but it
was a nice try.
Okay. She needs to address -- she's the one that brought the
concern forward. We just about got it resolved; however, there is
some fine details that have to be worked out. Keri needs to be able to
speak to us today because she won't be available if this comes back to
us, which it most likely will, in June.
Go ahead and we'll take it from there, then I'll make my
recommendations or motion.
MS. MENDARD: Well, I just have a few concerns. First off --
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Move the mike down just a
little.
MS. MENDARD: Sure. I think we're at a tentative agreement,
but we still don't have it on paper. And my biggest concern is that we
have to get something on paper just because we're a volunteer
organizations, and come September we're going to have two
Page 87
April 27, 2010
completely different boards. And my fear is that if we have a verbal
agreement, come September when our two new boards sit down, we're
going to be right back here in front of you.
I believe it should be something on a county co- sponsored
agreement that allows us each to have access to the facilities at Max
Hasse Park, as well as any other organization that's county
co- sponsored, to have the same rights to those county facilities.
That is it my biggest concern. Of course I have a concern about
how long this has taken, but I think we're in the final stages of
wrapping it up. I just want to work -- feel that our agreement should
work through the county and not through the boys. That's my biggest
concern.
I was emailed an amendment to the lease for the boys that they
would sign but nothing for us, and there's also issues with that
amendment that I got. I guess there's a possibility of drawing up a
three -way agreement, and I'm okay with that. I'd just like to see it get
done as soon as possible so I can tell my parents that this is settled,
because I'm still getting -- my phone still rings off the hook with
parents wanting to know what's going on, volunteers wanting to know
what's going on. Just stuff like that, I'd just like to see this cleared up
as soon as possible.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Yeah. So if I may, did you
want to add anything to that, Jeff, before I make a motion?
MR. KLATZKOW: No. What we're going to do is we're going
to come up with a tri -party agreement, signed off by both the boys and
the girls before it comes to you for your final sign -off, and I think
everybody will be fine after that.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: When we started this whole
thing on asking for the time - certain, we were hoping that we'd have an
agreement in place to be able to wrap it up today. But I understand
how these things are. They're always a little more involved than we
thought.
April 27, 2010
So I make a motion that this be continued to the next meeting and
placed on the consent agenda unless there is a reason to be able --
have to pull it at that point in time, we'll deal with it.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. A motion by Commissioner
Coletta --
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Second.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: -- to continue this item, place it on the
consent agreement (sic) -- place the three -parry agreement on the
consent agenda for the next meeting.
MR. KLATZKOW: Yeah. I don't know if it's going to be next
meeting. I've got to get both leagues to sign off on it before it comes
to you.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay. All right.
MR. KLATZKOW: As soon as we get that done, we'll come to
you.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Future meeting. Okay.
And it's --
COMMISSIONER HALAS: That's in my second.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: -- seconded by Commissioner Halas.
Any further discussion?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: All in favor of the motion, please signify
by saying aye.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: Aye.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Aye.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Aye.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Aye.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Aye.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: All opposed?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN COYLE: I thought Commissioner Fiala was going
to say no.
April 27, 2010
COMMISSIONER FIALA: I wanted to.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Okay, yeah. Commissioner Fiala said
no.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Don't poke her with a stick,
whatever you do.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: You're probably never going to get
anything supported out of her.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: By the way, did we -- everyone
wish Commissioner Henning a happy birthday?
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Happy birthday.
COMMISSIONER FIALA: And Norm Feder. Today is Norm
Feder's birthday.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Where was Norm Feder's cake?
MR. OCHS: He had brownies, sir. He doesn't get cake anymore.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: You don't offer -- you don't offer us
brownies?
MS. PRICE: Absolutely. There's one for each of you back here.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: We always offer you brownies when we
have a birthday up here.
COMMISSIONER COLETTA: Happy birthday, Commissioner
Henning; happy birthday, Norm Feder.
COMMISSIONER HALAS: Motion to adjourn.
COMMISSIONER HENNING: Second.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: Are we finished?
MR. OCHS: Did we check public comments?
MR. MITCHELL: Yeah.
MR. OCHS: Okay. Thank you.
MR. MITCHELL: There aren't any.
CHAIRMAN COYLE: You don't have anything else --
MR. OCHS: I don't have anything --
CHAIRMAN COYLE: -- County Manager?
MR. OCHS: --no, sir.
Page 90
April 27, 2010
