Background: · The Comprehensive Plan for the City of Marco included no provision or approved plan to handle historic sites and archeological finds. · There were approximately 10 historic sites to consider on Marco Island. · Marco Island Historical Society. interested in a possible historical designation of the Church of God and the cemetery. had approached Marco Island City Council. · Applications for renovation of the Old Marco Inn were received by City Planner. · Marco Island City Cellflcil requested meeting with Historical/Archeological Preservation Board (HAPB) for the purpose of creating an inter-local agreement. · HAPB had been interested in pursuing the creation of inter-local agreements with each municipality in Collier County. Ray Bellows had sent City Planner Kris Van Lengen the minutes of the last HAPB meeting, at which the Board decided to pursue an inter-local agreement with the various municipalities. starting with the City of Marco, to standardize procedures in the historic designation process. He noted the concerns of the County were County staff time and resources being devoted to municipalities. The discussion centered on: · Municipalities need not develop their own historical/archaeological boards · Utilization of the established County standards, processes, forms and procedures 2 February 16, 20 II · Staffs of municipalities to prepare documentations using approved checklist and their own created Ordinances · HAPB to make comments and recommendation · Pass HAPB recommendations on to City Councils for their approval. Chairman Craig Woodward read from a rough draft ofan inter-local agreement between Everglades City and Collier County which never materialized. It will be reviewed by Craig Woodward and Will Dempsey as a basis to create a basic template to present to the City of Marco as well as the other municipalities. Sharon Kenny suggested amending an existing inter-local agreement, adding what was needed, such as those with the Utilities and the School Board; and for communities located partly in the City and in the County. Kris Van Lengen cautioned it would be better tofiJcus on one issue so other issues, not involved with historic preservation in those agreements, wouldn't be a problem. Ray Bellows asked about what kind of Ordinance the City would have in place to deal with historic sites; and, would recommendations by HAPB be amenable to the City Council. Kris Van Lengen re.\ponded the City Council was agreeable to go to the HAPB fiJr comments and recommendalions: then, back 10 City Councilforfinal decisions. The City would devise its own Ordinance, modeled, for the most part, after the County's. Standardl' would be the same, though some procedures may be different since the City of Marco was not a certified local government. Ray Bellows explained non-certified V.I'. certified local government regarding procedure to put sites on the National Register of Historic Places. I. Collier County, a certified local government, can directly recommend sites. 2. A non-certified local government would have to go through the State process and then on through to the National process. 3. A resolution to create a historic district. though not recognized on the National Register, could be passed. But, there would be no Ordinance to protect and enforce any changes to that site. He also explained the Certificate of Appropriateness, its purpose and procedures. He stated Captain Horr property and Old Marco Inn received Historic Designation before Marco Island became a city. Renovation to Old Marco Inn would now come under the City of Marco -an example of the benefit of inter-local agreements. Ray Bellows and the HAPB offered to review the proposed renovations and to provide a letter ofrecommendalion and comments to the City Council. Kris Van Lengen and HAPB reviewed what was to be renovated. He stated the City Council would be receptive to a letter and comments from HAPB regarding the Old Marco Inn renovations. Kris will e-mail all information to Craig Woodward 3 ~_~.__'_._".C"._.,.. February 16,2011 who will send it on to Ray Bellows and all Board Members.

Ray Bellows detailed the process for implementation of the inter-local agreement: Ray will provide the copies of-- the County Ordinance and portion of the LDC which pertain to historic sites. processes and procedures, checklist. application forms and notices issued through the Building Dept. when applying for a permit. (Application for a Certificate of Appropriateness goes to the HAPB for approval of any changes. It does not require BCC approval and is attached to the Site Development Plan). Kris Van Lengen will work on the Ordinance for the City of Marco, utilizing the information provided by Ray Bellows. He stated the City Council was receptive to the process. HAPB, with guidance from Chairman Craig Woodward and Will Dempsey will draft the inter-local agreement, which will include provisions that the City's' own staff will be used for research and preparation of documentations. It will then need reviewing by the Assistant County Attorney. Upon completion of the above, both the City Council of Marco Island and the BCC would have to approve the inter-local agreement. Chairman Craig Woodward asked to put progress updates on the next Agenda. Sharon Kenny questioned if the City would want a Marco Island representative on the HAPB.
