Item #3
REGULAR, CONSENT AND SUMMARY AGENDA - APPROVED AND/OR ADOPTED WITH
CHANGES
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: We'll call the board meeting to order for
March 23rd, 1999. We're pleased to have with us this morning
reverend George Lockhart from the First Baptist Church of Board of
County Commissioners. If you would remain standing, afterwards we'll
have the pledge of allegiance.
REVEREND LOCKHART: Let us pray. Heavenly Father, as we come to
pray, we pray for one another and for this county and for our County
Commissioners today, knowing, Lord, that you have called us to be
people of prayer to pray for those in authority. I'm asking that
you'll just bless them and encourage them. Give them the wisdom to
lead this county in the way that you'd have this county to go. We
trust in you and ask that you'd just lead us as a county join
together, to work together, to do what is necessary to make this
county what you'd have it to be. And we pray, Lord, in the name of
our Lord and our Saviour, Jesus Christ, amen.
(Pledge of Allegiance was recited in unison.)
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay. Control room people, turn those
monitors off, because it's really distracting to see yourself. I
can't stand that. I don't like mirrors, I don't like photographs, I
sure
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Here, I'll help you.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Good-bye.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: You're too kind.
Let's see, changes to the agenda. Looks like we have a few.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Good morning, Madam Chairwoman.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Good morning.
MR. FERNANDEZ: ***The first group of changes are really routine
matters. The first is a final acceptance of water facilities for 951
mini-storage. And that's item 8(A) (2).
Items 8(A) (3) through 8(A) (8) are all final plats. A(3) is Long
Shore Lake, A(4) -- I'm sorry, Long Shore Lake, unit four. A(4) is
Long Shore Lake, unit S-D. A(S) is Long Shore Lake unit S-C. A(6)
is Candlewood 3. A(7) is Ashley Grove, and A(8) is Club Estates. So
those are all final plats.
Page 2
March 23, 1999
The next item is a follow-up to the meeting that we had on
Friday. This is the establishment of the ad hoc committee. It's a
long title there, I won't read that into the record, but I have a
copy available for the court reporter. That's item 8(A) (9).
We would like to move item 7(B) from the regular agenda to the
consent agenda. This is a request to adopt a resolution declaring a
need for an additional educational facilities authority to function
in Collier County, authorizing the authority to transact business and
exercise powers under the Act.
The next is to continue to future date item 12(B) (1), which is
petition PUD-82-16.
Then there's the request to continue for future date item
12 (B) (2), petition PUD-98-13.
Then we would like to continue the two items dealing with the
audit. Continue to the April 13th meeting item 6(A) (1) and 6(A) (2).
That's the certificate of achievement for excellence in reporting and
the report to the board on the comprehensive annual financial report.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Is there some question about our
excellence?
MR. FERNANDEZ: It has to do with changing rules that
used by the Government Accounting Standards Bureau, and we
would be prudent to wait until that rule change process is
before that report is made to the board.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay.
MR. FERNANDEZ: The final is to continue to April 13th, '99 the
item 16(B) (1), which is to rescind the award of a contract to Allied
Trucking of Florida for bid no. 98-2900.
Also a note for the record, item 16(A) (1), the language has been
changed from the original version of the document to acknowledge the
substitute bill and amendment that's been introduced.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Any other changes, Mr. Weigel, from you?
MR. WEIGEL: No, thank you.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Thank you.
Commissioner Berry?
COMMISSIONER BERRY: I had one item to add very briefly under
the Board of County Commissioners having to do again with our ethics
policy.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE:

COMMISSIONER BERRY: That would be fine
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay.

Under 15(A), would it just be
Page 3
March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER BERRY: -- at this point in time.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Commissioner Norris?
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Nothing today.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Commissioner Carter?
COMMISSIONER CARTER: I will have one thing under our
communications in regards to noise ordinance.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay, anything else?
How about you, Commissioner Constantine?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: No changes.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I have no changes, but I want to note for
the record, I'm abstaining on item 16(A) (6); that's a plat for
Pebblebrook Lakes, and I represent that development.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: ***Madam Chairman, on that note, I
then make a motion we approve the agendas as amended for consent
agenda, summary agenda and regular agenda.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Second.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: All in favor, please say aye.
Opposed?
(No response.)
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Passes unanimously.
In case there's anyone here from the public, first of all, we
have postponed the Krehling PUD matter, so if you're here for that
matter, that's 12(B) (1), and that one's been continued indefinitely.
And if you were here for anything that's under 16 or 17 on the
agenda, it's just been approved. So sometimes people are confused
and stay, so we don't want to waste your time.

the county's main library at 850 Central Avenue in Naples from 7:00
to 8:30 p.m.
NOW THEREFORE, be it proclaimed by the Board of County
Commissioners of Collier County, Florida, that March 28th through
April 3rd, 1999 be designated as Diversity Week in Collier County,
and residents are urged to support and to attend the dialogue on
diversity program.
Done and ordered this 23rd day of March, 1999, Board of County
Commissioners, Pamela Mac'Kie, Chairwoman.
I'd love to move acceptance of this proclamation.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Second.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: All in favor, please say aye.
(Unanimous vote of ayes.)
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: It passes unanimously.
(Applause.)
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Thank you so much.
MS. BROPHY: Thank you very much, Ms. Mac'Kie and other
commissioners. You've certainly chosen a very dramatic way to
support us in this, what we think is first of such program in this
area, and we really appreciate the support.
I would like to comment on the proclamation itself. I
understand that Mr. Phil Tindel (phonetic) wrote it, and I would like
to say maybe he's missed his vocation. He's a very fine writer. As
a matter of fact, if we left out a few of the whereas's, I think it
would be positively poetic. And I thank Mr. Tindel. I'm a writer,
and it takes one to know one, you know.
The American Association of University Women is a diverse group.
In our membership we have African Americans, we have Hispanics, we
even have some menj therefore, we know the value of diversity.
Page 6
March 23, 1999
And I think it's with this understanding that we decided to
launch what we hope will be an annual program, a dialogue on
diversity. This program is actually a celebration of the really
wonderful diversity that does exist in the City of Naples and in
Collier County. And we are happy to be cosponsoring this.
We have had the cooperation of many organizations in the area,
too many to mention right now. But a few of them are represented
here today. We have Al Bauer of the unitarian universalist
Congregation.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Stand as she calls your name.
MS. BROPHY: We have Dorothy Fitch of the League of Women
Voters. And we have Henry Tribble of the Black Affairs. Thank you
for coming.
I would like to take this opportunity to invite everybody in
this room to go to the program. It's going to be a very interesting
program. We're not simply going to go and listen to somebody give a
long speech. Kitty Oliver, who was a woman of tremendous charm and
beauty, if you haven't seen this, you will realize that. She is
really the facilitator of this program, which will be a dialogue.
She will speak, give some background material.
But actually, it's an opportunity for those in attendance to
talk to others in a very diverse group. So we cordially invite you
to be there.
I also would like to make this point, that the public is
invited. There is no charge for this. It's conveniently located in
the main library. Starts at 7:00, ends at 8:30, so you can do other
things with your evening. And we urge all of you to be with us.
You'd be most welcome. Thank you.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I plan to be there. And my kids are 11 and
14, do you think it's okay to bring them?
MS. BROPHY: Pardon me?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: 11 and 14-year-old kids be okay to bring?
MS. BROPHY: I think they'd be most welcome.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Good, good. Okay, thank you.

meeting.
WHEREAS, master gardener volunteers are an integral part of
Collier County government; and
WHEREAS, the Collier County master gardener program offers
opportunities for citizens who wish to volunteer in a diversity of
different ways; including plant clinics, garden workshops, recycling
garden demonstrations, authoring articles for the newspaper's garden

COMMISSIONER CARTER: Any of the gardeners would like to say a

CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Please feel free.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: -- step up to the microphone and talk to
us. Approve our green thumbs.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: wish I knew what they know. It would be
shameful to see my yard,
MS. EISENBUD: We thank you for this award, but the true reward
is in serving the people that come to us. They have desperate
problems and we are always pleased when we can offer them some help.
Steering this group is our horticultural agent, Mr. Bob
Peterson, who is with us this morning, who makes it possible for us
to expand our book of knowledge every time we serve.
I think it's interesting that the four of us here represent 28
years of service on the master gardener program.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Wow.
MS. BROPHY: That is, I think, quite incredible.
And every session is a reward. We learn something each time
we're there. This goes without exception.
So you have a very busy agenda. I just want to thank you for
this additional recognition. The community is well aware of our
program. And the emphasis on the exotic and alien plants and the
problems they're creating in the community is clearly described in
pictures just outside this doorway. And people are becoming more and
more aware of the problems. And so we're not unknown and people come
to us daily with problems. And we thank you for this additional
recognition.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Appreciate your work, ma'am.

Item #7A
JOE LELONEK, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE UNITED ARTS COUNCIL OF COLLIER
COUNTY REQUESTING FINANCIAL SUPPORT - NO ACTION
Page 12
March 23, 1999
We'll move now to public petitions. And the first item that we
have is Mr. Leonard Reina is here on behalf of the united Arts
Council of Collier County.
You understand public petition process allows you 10 minutes to
make a presentation, and we can't make decisions based on the
presentation today, but we can give direction to staff, if the
majority of the board wishes to.
MR. REINA: Thank you very much, And I don't plan to take 10
minutes.
I guess I should start by introducing myself. My name is
Leonard Reina, for the record, and I'm a board member of the united
Arts Council.
The -- some of the members of the board are here with me today.
Joy Lelonek, who is our executive director, is here, and whose place
I'm taking on the -- on your agenda today. And Marilyn Brown, who is
our president, is here as well.
The United Arts Council is here today to do two things: One, to
introduce ourselves to you so you know more about us; and two, to ask
you for help.
And in order for us to introduce ourselves, we've prepared a
packet. I hope you all have a copy of it. And it's fairly simple,
but it will help demonstrate kind of our unique position here in the
county.
And I think I would probably start off by directing your
attention to tab four. Hopefully you'll find the vision statement
there of United Arts Council. And as you can see, our mandate is to
promote educational programs, cultural services, both in the
community and schools, enhance the artistic quality of life in
Collier County for both residents and visitors, maintain a high level
of quality and professionalism, creativity, diversity in the arts,
provide a liaison with the arts community, provide technical
assistance in planning for the arts, provide the community with
access to the arts, and encourage financial support of the arts. That
sort of tells you what we're about.
We are unique in that I don't know how many organizations have
been mandated by both a Florida statute and a Collier County
ordinance. But we are in that unique position.
If I can draw your attention to tab one, you can see that there
is a chapter out of the Florida statutes, chapter 265. And YOU'll
see at .32, it's at the bottom of the page there, it says county fine
Page 13
March 23, 1999
arts council. And the legislature, in I guess one of its brighter
days, determined that this was such a worthy cause that they would
actually enact legislation encouraging this kind of organization.
And without boring you with reading all of it, it basically says
that the counties have authority to create -- each county in this
state is hereby vested with the authority to create a county fine
arts council, hereinafter referred to the councilor arts council, a
public agency, corporate and politic (sic), for the purposes of --
and if you read that laundry list there, basically what you'll get
out of that is stimulating greater government and public awareness
and appreciation for the importance of the arts to the people of
Florida. And our statutory mandate is to encourage, promote, survey,
support and develop and provide financial support for the arts.
The county, in 1984, passed a resolution, which you'll find at
page two in this county. And if you look at that resolution, you'll
see that it takes right from the statute the language which the
statute -- Florida statute indicated the purposes of this
organization were. And as can you see there, it says stimulate
greater government public awareness, et cetera. And it follows that
same list.
So Collier County has seen fit to create an ordinance
recognizing the united Arts Council which, by the way, wasn't
originally called the united arts council.
There is another tab which, if I could draw your attention I
guess to tab five, which will tell you a little bit about our
background, highlights the things that the United Arts Council are
about. And we changed our name I think in 1992 to basically be more
encompassing in its definition.
But you can see the kinds of things that the United Arts Council
is involved in is an arts forum. That arts forum is made up of
approximately 40 organizations. You can get an idea of the
organizations by looking at tab six. I'm not trying to make you jump
back and forth here, but it's probably easier to do it this way than
-- you know, a picture's worth 1,000 words. If you take a look at
that page, you can see the kinds of organizations that are involved
in the united Arts Council arts forum.
What is interesting there, if you'll take a look at the first
column to the right, you'll see members. It lists the members that
are involved in the arts forum, and it's approximately 8,000. So we
have a significant amount of community involvement and community
support for the arts.
Pa~e 14
March 23, 1999
If you take a look at the very bottom, there's a footnote there,
and the footnote says the total combined audience for the arts forum
members will exceed 600,000 people for the 1998-1999 season. So we
reach a great audience here in Collier County, and we think that the
state has recognized this organization, this body itself has
recognized the need of the United Arts Council, the need of somebody
to promote arts.
And we think with the new century starting out, Collier County
has a unique opportunity to take its place amongst the great places
to live in the world.
If you look at any great city, if you take Rome, what would it
be without the Sistine Chapel, Michelangelo, Leonardo. If you take
Paris, you think to the Louvre. If you take New York, you think of
Broadway. You can't have a great place to live without having a
cultural backdrop for people to enjoy living there, and to attract
new people, to attract people to want to visit.
So the arts I think are something that we're going to need to
pay more attention to if we're going to be a well-rounded community.
We have an opportunity to do that, starting out with a whole new
century.
The United Arts Council is an organization that already exists
to function as a sort of an umbrella organization, such as like I
guess United Way where people donate to United Way, united Way then
takes that money and gives it to worthy causes,
This is good for you and it's good for the community, because
it's one less thing that you have to worry about as county
commissioners, that you have an organization I think that has a
history and it's been doing a fine job, but we do need your help.
Currently right now what's happening is most of our efforts in
fundraising are being used to offset our overhead. Now, we realize
that being in the public eye, everything you do, some people will be
happy about it and some people will criticize you for it.
And we do realize that when it comes to art, everybody's got an
opinion. Some people like chocolates, some people like vanilla. And
we are sensitive that we do not want to put the commission in a
position of picking and choosing and being criticized for those
artistic endeavors that it may support.
United Arts Council's job is to collect monies to fundraise and
then to channel those into worthy and meritorious causes. What we
need is we need support from the county in covering our overhead.
This we think will allow for less criticism of the county and what it
Page 15
March 23, 1999
is you're doing with your tax dollars, and it allows us to use our
efforts to raise money to do what we do best, which is determine
those artistic endeavors that are meritorious and need our support.
If we are freed up from the overhead of actually running that,
then our efforts of generating funds can be used directly to support
the arts, which we think here in Collier County are going to have to
be an intricate part of our future. You know, building roads, fire,
police, absolutely important, critical. I think we struggle with
that and we're doing as good a job as we can. But I don't think when
it's over all with people are going to remember Collier County for
its roads, its fire or its police --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: We hope not.
MR. REINA: -- welre going to be remembered for something else.
Have I used up my time?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: You've got a little bit more.
MR. REINA: That's okay. I'm sorry, I didn't hear you.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: No.
MR. REINA: You are agreeing with me, I hope.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Yes,
MR. REINA: Good, great.
So having said that, I'm certainly open for any questions, and
we are serious, and our members are serious, that we are asking for
your help. I think we've been kind of a quiet organization for a
long time. And we would like for you to consider us working with
staff to develop some kind of a budget item for our overhead so that
our activities of fundraising could be used to promote the arts as
the statute, the ordinance and our vision statement indicates.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Board members, responses?
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Whose portfolio would that fall under,
commissioners, if we went in this direction? Would that be Mr.
Oates?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Mr. Olliff, I would think.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Or Mr. Olliff.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: It seems to me that this might be
appropriate to work under the museum -- you know, with the museum,
with the library. I don't know how exactly, but that seems to me
where it might fall.
Mr. Constantine?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Well, as much as you're not going to
like this, Lenny, the board used to give money to homeless shelters
and Shelter For Abused Women and any number of well intentioned and
Page 16
March 23, 1999
well operating private entities, but we had a formal policy change
five or six years ago not to provide public money to private
entities, no matter how well intentioned. And there were a number of
reasons behind that.
But I think unless we have a formal policy change to revisit
that -- and frankly, I'm satisfied with the policy as it is -- that
I'm not sure this is realistic. I don't want to leave false hope out
there for you, so --
MR. REINA: Well, at least I appreciate your honesty in telling
me, you know, how you feel about it. What would it take to -- for
you to consider changing that policy? Because I think that's what
our 8,000 members would like to see you do.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I don't think I would consider
changing that policy, because it's served us very well for the five
years. And I don't have any doubt that what you all do is valuable,
but what happens is there are dozens of groups in Collier County that
do valuable things. And then two things happen: Either we spend an
exorbitant amount of money trying to fund all of them -- we had just
less than six months ago Special Olympics come in and was looking for
some help with their executive director. I'm a volunteer for Special
Olympics, I work with them. Great program. But it's not the
county's responsibility, nor should public money be doing that.
So I think this is staying consistent with what we've done in
the past.
MR. REINA: Well, I know that there's something comforting about
being consistent, but I'm not sure that's always the best thing to
be, simply for consistency sake.
We are kind of unique in that we do have a statute and an
ordinance that recognizes us and kind of gives us a mandate. And we
have been created both by this organization, by the state legislature
and mandated to promote the arts, and it seems like we're being left
to do that, after being created sort of without any backup.
I think we -- I think you can differentiate between this group
and other groups very easily, just based on those two criteria alone.
I do know that it is tough to say no, but I think that, you know,
that's -- that's kind of part of -- part of the job is you've got to
be able to differentiate when to say yes and when to say no. And we
think this is a different group with a different agenda, and we think
it's entitled to special consideration.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: The theory --
Page 17
March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Surely you understand that Special
Olympics think they're a different group and Shelter For Abused Women
thinks they're a different group, and, I mean, everyone who is out
there doing good work has that belief, And so that's the tough part.
And that really is the second part of what I was saying, is one,
either we spend a lot of money trying to fund all of them, or what
happened in the early Nineties was commissioners were picking and
choosing their pet projects. They happened to work with such and
such a group, so that got funded that year. And it was just bad
public policy.
MR, REINA: I certainly respect your opinion.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I just want to say, though, Lenny, if I'm
understanding your point, it's that the Arts Council is -- it could
reasonably be described as a quasi governmental organization because
of its statutory and ordinance. Sort of we've given you unfunded
mandates like we feel we get from the state sometime.
MR. REINA: You've got it.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: We've given
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Let me ask, what mandates? A mandate
is a requirement, you have to do something. I don't think the county
has required you that you have to do something or there's a penalty
involved.
And also, according to your own history line here, you started
in 1980 and the resolution was in 1984. And so obviously we didn't
create you. And that's what you said a couple of minutes ago. You
know, we recognize you, and I have recognized that you folks are kind
of the point for this type of activity. But to suggest that this is
an unfunded mandate like the state, I mean, there are penalties
involved at the state level if the county doesn't follow what they
mandate we do.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: It's not exactly the same.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: It's not a mandate. I mean, it just says
you can do this and kind of here's the order in which you can go
about doing it. And as opposed to an ordinance, we have a
resolution. So it's nothing that is -- it's not a law. In other
words, there's not been a law broken here.
MR. REINA: No, no, no. I don't mean to --
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Okay, well --
MR. REINA: -- insinuate that you have some type of legal
requirement that you must fund us. Obviously we would have been here
a long time ago and have crossed that bridge.
Page 18
March 23, 1999
But I think we are unique in that how many organizations are
there, both the statute and ordinance, talking about the promoting
and the creating --
COMMISSIONER BERRY: It's not an ordinance, Lenny.
MR. REINA: Well, okay, it's a resolution.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: It's a resolution, and there's a
difference.
MR. REINA: All right. Well, there is a statute and there is a
resolution. And we are here doing a service and we're here with
8,000 members that are looking to you for some financial support and
some help and to see that you have a commitment to the arts and to
making Collier County more than just roads and public health and
safety, which is obviously very important but is only one part of the
formula.
And I guess the test is, is Collier County going to take its
place amongst those towns and those areas that have that quality of
life? And we'd like to see it happen, We're all -- all of our
members work very hard at doing that, and we have a unique
perspective in that regard.
But we are here asking for help and obviously we can't make you
do anything that you don't think is in the citizens' best interest.
To the extent that we might be able to persuade you, we'd be happy to
provide you with any other kind of documentation or information,
invite you to any of our meetings, and introduce you to any of our
members to let you know how serious we are about needing some help
and support in the community.
And I think you'll find that there's going to be a large base of
support for the arts. It has been growing by leaps and bounds. And
if you look at the Naples Community Theatre, the Philharmonic, all
the things that are going on with so many people interested in the
culture and the arts. And it's time that we take our place amongst
those areas that recognize it and become great places because of it.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: The point in a public petition would be to
see if there is a consensus among a majority of the board members to
ask staff to look into this. We've heard from Commissioner
Constantine, and I appreciate his consistency on that position.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Well, you know, Commissioner -- Chairwoman
Mac'Kie, the gentleman makes a good point about policies. It's
always a good idea to step back and look at your policies
periodically and ask yourself is it doing what you want it to do.
Page 19
March 23, 1999
And we may reach the same conclusion, sir. But on the other
hand, I would be in favor of reviewing that policy, because as we
grow as a community, what rattles in my mind is what are the
communities doing? Are we doing it the best way that we can do it?
Or should we take a look at this again?
So I would like to review the policy, not only as it applies to
the united Arts Council but there are other groups that come in front
of us. So that would be my feeling, my recommendation to this board.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And I would certainly join you in that
desire to review the policy.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: I'm surprised.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I know you're not surprised, John.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Well, I was part of the board that took
all the heat to change our old policy and to go to the policy that we
have now. That was very hard to do, because there were some very
fine organizations that were receiving some support from the county.
It was very difficult. But I think it was the right thing to do, and
I still hold that view.
So as much as I appreciate all the efforts of the council, I'm
going to be one that sticks with the old policy current policy,
excuse me.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: No pressure, Barbara.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: No pressure.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: And in answer to that, I would not support
bringing that back to the board for review.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Understood.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: I had the opportunity to speak to this
group not too long ago, and basically I told you guys the same thing,
of what the board had done and the action that they had previously
taken. So this should be no surprise, what you're hearing this
morning.
This was done before I ever got on the commission. And I think
for the most part, it has served -- it has served well. Because what
happens, every time you get a change in the board then, you're going
to get a change in whoever's pet project comes forward is going to be
the one that's going to get some funding. So you have to be aware of
that. Maybe that gets you involved in the political process; you
make sure that someone who is running for office better be supportive
of the arts. But that's exactly what is going to -- but if you get
to that point, you're strictly one issue, and that's a slippery slope
to get on.
Page 20
March 23, 1999
You can review the policy, but again, as I explained to these
folks, we tried to do this, or what I gathered when I came on the
commission, the reason for doing it was they tried to keep the
property taxes within a certain range and encourage people, encourage
the public to get out and support their particular projects.
And I believe, as I told you that day, I think it behooves you
to do some kind of an advertising or campaign fundraising kind of
thing and let the world know that you're out there and what your
needs are. And I guess I have to be a proponent of saying I always
support whatever you people can do on your own much more than
government doing it for them. I don't think you want us in your
life.
MR. REINA: We just want your money.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Actually, it might be a little bit of my
money, but it's a whole lot of other people's money that we're giving
away, and I think we've got to be real careful when we go on that
road as to what we're doing.
So as far as I'm concerned, unless there is a groundswell of
support for somebody coming and saying please revisit this, I'm going
to be inclined to stay with the policy as it currently is. At the
same time, encourage people to get out and support groups such as
yourself and do the thing that they should do for them. If theY're
interested in seeing this kind of thing continue in Collier County,
then get out and support them. I think you deserve that support,
MR. REINA: Commissioner Berry, can we take your comments to
mean you will at least reconsider the issue? without making any
commitment, that you will change your opinion that you've stated to
us, but at least give us the benefit of trying to persuade you that
either you and the other commissioners, this may be the time to
rethink this issue?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I'll tell you this: You would certainly
not -- you would certainly have no lack of support in the community
for the County Commission to review that policy. I mean, there's a
great deal of support in this community, not only in the arts, but in
social services issues to have the policy reviewed. And I would hope
-- I think that's what I heard, but I'm not sure either.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Well--
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Well, I have a very strong feeling about
government and some of those kinds of issues, and I'm not going to go
there, Pam,
Page 21
March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: One of the commitments that I made
personally, the final year we contributed to private organizations,
the county gave $50,000 total out to various groups. One of the
commitments I made at that time, I said, you know, each one of us,
just by the nature of what we do for work here, has a unique ability
to raise money. So I said at that time, if each one of us made a
commitment to go out and raise $10,000 for each year for the private
sector then there would still be $50,000 worth of work and goodwill
out there. So during that five-year window, I've done that each
year. I've raised anywhere between 10, and one year almost $50,000
for private entities. And so there are certainly alternatives to
spending taxpayer money.
And that's not saying we don't think this is a good idea, it's
not saying anything other than this isn't the source you'll get your
money from. But I hear a pretty passionate commissioner Mac'Kie
here, and perhaps she can assist you in that, just as I work with
Special Olympics or the others.
MR. REINA: I better mention this, or I'll be in trouble when I
go home. I'm hearing from groups, what about the EDC? Is that a
group that gets the funding?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Well, in a way we do, because we have a
partnership with them where we have -- as a county we have economic
development -- an economic development program.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: We don't fund any of EDC's budget.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: None of their operating. But some of their
policies we are joint proponents of.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: But we don't spend one penny.
MR. REINA: There's no money spent?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: None of their operating budget?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Not one penny.
MR. REINA: Does anybody have a suggestion as to where we should
go from here?
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: I think that's outside the purview of the
board.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: My suggestion would be to continue to lobby
the three commissioners who aren't interested at this point in
looking at the broad question of the policy and see if you can
persuade them that there is a groundswell of community support.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: My suggestion would be that your time
might be spent in more productive matters.
MR. REINA: Thank you very much.
Page 22
March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Seriously, if you have 8,000 folks
who are supportive, that's not a big hit on any of them. I don't
know how much you're looking for, but if --
MR. REINA: Well, we did our math, and basically, if you took
the population of Collier County and you asked everybody for 65
cents, we'd have $100,000. It's about a pack of gum.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: That's Commissioner Norris's favorite
type of analogy. The sheriff gives that every year. You're just
asking for a suggestion, I'm just trying to help.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And we should wrap it up. And we
appreciate you being here.

able to do some planning here and have it on the printed agenda.

COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Could I just ask the county
administrator and county attorney to respond to that question?
MR. WEIGEL: If I may, we looked at the item when it came up a
couple weeks ago, Heidi Ashton and her office. We came up with what
I think is a hybrid resolution here and that is to delegate the
chairman the ability to sign off on the plats themselves. We found
that actually the holdup that seems to prevent plats and their
accompanying security performance agreement to get on has been the
performance security agreement. We think that we can nearly
eliminate the add-on requirements here by the board approving a
resolution. We should bring that back. If not the next meeting, the
meeting after that.

Item #8A9
ESTABLISHMENT OF AD HOC COMMITTEE TO REVIEW AND REVISE CLUSTERING AND
NATURAL RESOURCE PROTECTION STANDARDS FOR THE PROPOSED RURAL FRINGE
AREA AND TO DEVELOP AND INTERIM POLICY TO BE INCLUDED IN A SETTLEMENT
AGREEMENT WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS WITH RESPECT TO
LIMITING LAND USES IN THE RURAL AGRICULTURAL AREA PENDING COMPLETION
OF A COMPREHENSIVE STRATEGIC PLAN FOR THIS AREA - STAFF
RECOMMENDATION APPROVED, RESOLUTION TO BE BROUGHT BACK ON APRIL 13,
1999
Next item is 8(A) (9), which is the formation of the working
groups for the compo plan amendment and settlement agreement we had
last Friday. Mr. Mulhere.
MR. MULHERE: Thank you, Bob Mulhere.
We have this as an add-on item to hopefully provide an
opportunity for the board to discuss the creation of the ad hoc
committee that would be charged in over a relatively brief period of
time -- now made brief, I think, possibly by the release of Judge
Meale's recommended order on Friday as we were meeting here in the
workshop -- to develop revisions to the staff proposed clustering and
natural resources protection standards, and also to develop a policy
that would address development in the rural area or limitations on
development in the rural area, pending the development of the
strategic plan.
I think there are a couple of issues that are not really
addressed in your executive summary that probably need some
discussion. Perhaps the county attorney could assist in that
discussion. And that is relative to the time frame. It probably is
necessary for us to request some additional time, but more
importantly, I think we need to have a committee up and running to
begin the work in as expeditious fashion as possible.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Did you have something to add, Mr. Weigel?
MR. WEIGEL: No, I don't, thank you.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: This is just for the establishment of the
committee?
MR. MULHERE: Correct. The -- from what I understand in
speaking to David Weigel, the board can create the ad hoc committee
today, could even bring up some names of committee members, if the
boards so desired, but on April 13th we would bring back the
Page 29
March 23, 1999
resolution actually establishing it, and perhaps then naming members
to that committee.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: What I'd like to do --
COMMISSIONER BERRY: I just have a question.
committee or is this a separate -- like the group
with is going to be separate. So this is -- what
talking about now?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: It seems to me that what we've got are two
committees. One's going to have a shorter life and one's going to
have a longer life.
COMMISSIONER BERRY:
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE:
to be --
COMMISSIONER BERRY:
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE:
life, basically.
And board members, please jump in here and tell me where you
disagree with what I'm saying, because I think staff is really trying
to get this down. That this oversight committee that Commissioner
Berry would head up would look at the rural issues over the two years
that it may take, and that their primary function is going to be to
serve sort of as the protocol managers for what's done out there, to
be sure that the principles applied by the engineers and the mappers
are scientifically accurate and appropriate so that they're sort of
the oversight committee for the work there's being privately funded.
Is that an accurate description of that?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: That's certainly what we discussed
Friday. I am going to issue a memo suggesting some changes to that
in the next few days, which we can talk about when this all comes
back in two weeks, but that is exactly what we said Friday.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay. But nothing that you want to tell us
about today?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: No. I've got a number of points.
I'm not ready.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: So that would be -- that's one longer term
committee that we would be establishing. And then at our next
meeting, we'd be officially appointing the membership of that
committee.
And people who are interested should apply for seats on it, But
it's -- its membership I think is mostly going to be created by
Commissioner Berry. Am I right about that?
Is this an overall
that I'm working
group are we
Okay.
The one that you're working with is going
An older life.
an oversight committee with a longer
Page 30
March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: The membership of that one is by any
stretch of the imagination going to be with people who are conducting
the study, because they're the ones who are doing it. But once their
study is done, then we'll probably have other people involved in
translating all that data into what we want to do with the
comprehensive plan. But for now, it will just be the people who are
actually involved in the land itself.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: It seems to me, though, that it's
important, for example, for Clarence Tears to be on the committee to
be sort of an oversight from the Water Management District.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Right, we want to see people from out in
the area that understand the area out there. Not necessarily the
owners, that's not what I'm talking about, but understand kind of the
-- what's going on out in that particular area of the county.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Is there an objection to having
Commissioner Berry bring back a recommendation for the makeup of that
committee?
COMMISSIONER CARTER: No, I think the suggestion to Clarence
Tears and perhaps somebody from the Immokalee Chamber of Commerce and
the families, I mean, these are the people that are doing it, know
the area. We need to get that input and let them do that. And then
it's going to go through due process anyhow.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Absolutely. This isn't going to be -- you
know, once it's not, it's not going to be the end of it, because then
there will be the public hearings and everything else that we have to
do, so --
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: It will be --
COMMISSIONER BERRY: -- there's certainly going to be plenty --
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: -- a four or five-year plan instead
of
COMMISSIONER BERRY: No, but I think you're reasonably looking
at at least a couple. I mean, I don't think that that's going to be
a --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And at the same time, commissioner Berry,
next week when you bring us back that list, can you bring us also
back -- or is staff working on identifying who are the property
owners that are not in this group of self-imposed moratorium on
activities out there?
COMMISSIONER BERRY: I believe they -- I believe they -- we can
get that information. I was given that assurance.
Page 31
March 23, 1999
MR. MULHERE: We are already working on developing a list of
property owners and assuming that we would have responsibility of
preparing a piece of correspondence for those property owners that
letting them know what the intentions are and trying to get some
feedback from them.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And letting them -- the intention, I mean,
that's a relevant point. And I guess, you know, when will we be
deciding what we're going to do with property owners who are not
opting into this self-imposed moratorium?
MR. MULHERE: The intent from staff at this point was to have
this ad hoc -- very compressed ad hoc committee deal with that issue
in a policy format and bring those policy recommendations back to the
board for consideration,
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Good. Is that acceptable to everybody?
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Yes, I think that's good direction.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: So that's one committee.
You had comment on that, Mr. Weigel?
MR. WEIGEL: Yes, thank you. And that is -- the committee that
will be working with and through the direction of Commissioner Berry,
if it is in fact a longer term than a one-year committee under our
own ordinance itself, by definition itself, it's actually not an ad
hoc committee, but it does take a longer life, and ultimately would
be created by ordinance. Although this committee could be created at
the next board meeting, if you're ready to create it.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: The rural fringe one, though, will be
an ad hoc committee?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Right.
MR. WEIGEL: Right. But for this particular one, what I would
suggest is looking towards solutions, not just saying you can't, is
that we can create it by resolution, give it a life of one year, and
in the meantime, get an ordinance in the works so that we can
memorialize this for the duration that we think that we may have to
have beyond one year, so it reach it has the legitimacy of our own
advisory committee ordinance.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: One of the things that we may want to think
about is whether or not we want to create a resolution as an ad hoc
committee, so that in one year it has to make a presentation to the
board on the status. And then we would continue the committee by
resolution again.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Perhaps I'm reading a different
executive summary than everyone else, but the only ad hoc committee
Page 32
March 23, 1999
it talks about on here is the rural fringe area, and then below it
says additionally discussed was the oversight group, so on and so
forth. So I think if we are going to do that, then we ought to let
Barb create that. But it doesn't need to be ad hoc in order to
enforce a reporting deadline, and --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Mr. Weigel is just telling us we can't have
an ordinance for the next meeting, you can have a resolution.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I know, but I'm -- his comment was
that you don't want it to be an ad hoc committee, because it will
last longer than a year. I don't think anywhere on the executive
summary was it contemplated to be an ad hoc committee.
MR. WEIGEL: Okay, fine. That word was being used here, and I
just wanted to let you know that if it is going to go long term --
Bob Mulhere had mentioned that by virtue of the order coming out,
issued Friday, we have a compression of events dealing with the
state.
And so whether this committee or other committees contemplated
here are created, we're going to have to work very adroitly with the
state, with Mr. Varnadoe and the landowners that have made some
suggestions and proffers as to working with the state. We're going
to have to work also with all of the parties to the '97 comprehensive
plan appeal, all of them, to see if we can orchestrate, work out the
opportunity to develop our plan locally, as opposed to from on high
at Tallahassee.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And on that subject, which I intended to
bring up at the end of discussion on committees, but it's properly
appropriate at this point, it's been suggested to me, and I think
it's appropriate, that I go and meet with the secretary of the DCA,
Steve Seibert, and ask him on behalf of the board to give us time to
work -- to tell him what our board has adopted as policies in both of
these two records, to ask for more than 45 days, for at least the 60
to 90 days that we're going to talk about for the next committee, the
clustering committee, to do its work, and to seek his support for our
long-range planning opportunities in the eastern part of the county.
If that's something that the board agrees to, I'd like to do that.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Madam Chairman, I certainly have no
objection to you doing that, if it is helpful. Seiberg's a personal
friend of mine, so I'll be happy to call him and we may be able to do
that, to save you the trip, or at least call him and prep him before
you arrive.
Page 33
March 23, 1999
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Let's certainly take advantage of that.
Leadership Florida Convention is great.
But is there agreement on the board that we should make that
contact with her?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Yeah.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Yes.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And then moving on then to the second, the
real -- the ad hoc committee. That committee would be created by
resolution next week, Its membership, I would suggest, is then each
of us should bring a couple of names, or should bring the names of
the people we would seek to appoint, but I would hope that instead of
each of us having two slots, for example, we could just discuss the
membership next week to be sure that we have a balance of
representation on the committee, but that anybody who's interested in
serving should send us correspondence within the next two weeks so
that we can create and appoint.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: This committee will do what then?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And that committee's function is in the
rural fringe, to identify the clustering and open space requirements,
and to make recommendations to us on what we're going to do in the
rural fringe.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Tweak that stuff with a 50 percent
and so on.
MR. MULHERE: May I just add for the record that although the
executive summary refers to the rural fringe solely in the
recommendation section, it's a little broader than that, because it
would really be all of the policy issues that were subject to
challenge by the departments. Some of those require tweaking as well
that aren't strictly related to the fringe area,
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: For example?
MR. MULHERE: Well, we have a -- the 90 percent versus 75
percent exotic infestation rule applies county-wide, but there was
issue with that. So that's just one example. I think we have a good
handle of those issues that are questionable at this point in time.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: So what you're saying is that those -- some
of the issues may apply county-wide --
MR. MULHERE: Correct.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: -- not just in the rural fringe?
MR. MULHERE: Correct.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Do we need to move staff
recommendation today, or has Mr. Weigel told us we can't do that?
Page 34
March 23, 1999
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: No, no, no, we can.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I don't know if we have speakers, but
I'll move staff recommendation.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Second.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Do we --
MR. FERNANDEZ: No speakers.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: -- have speakers?
MR. FERNANDEZ: None.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay, if not -- and clear direction to the
staff?
MR. MULHERE: Yes, I think we'll return with a resolution on
April 13th, at which time you can provide us with a membership and we
can begin with the ad hoc committee, that within some reasonably
short period of time will culminate its activities.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Question. Is this going to deal with any
of the language in the settlement agreement?
MR. MULHERE: Yes.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: It will?
MR. MULHERE: Yes.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Okay. Because there definitely is
consensus.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Right.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: I guess the way I understand this, Bob, is
that this committee kind of does everything outside of the rural
committee that is a separate function and entity and a longer term
process.
MR. MULHERE: Correct. And I'm glad you asked -- made that
statement, because I think what -- there's not as much of a time
constraint, obviously, on establishing that second oversight
committee. There's more of a time consideration in establishing this
first committee.
The only thing that staff would be looking for this committee to
do would be to develop a policy that's acceptable to the department
that addresses those land uses in the rural area in the interim
period in the study -- in the period in which the study is being
developed, which the board specifically discussed at their workshop.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Okay, thank you.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And I don't know if this bears saying, but
I'm going to, But I thought that the newspaper reporter what
happened this past Friday left out some really important facts, and
let me just ask: Is there no question that the board has agreed to
Page 35
March 23, 1999
the reduction of urban density from four to two? I mean, that's not
even on the table, right?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Correct.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: No--
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Right.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: -- we've
COMMISSIONER BERRY: I thought we did that.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: -- established a committee to work in the
urban --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Right, that's a done deal. That's a huge
news story, if you ask me. And, you know, your quote was so
attractive, they couldn't resist making that the focus of the story
that we've done nothing, but we've done a lot already. There are a
lot of decisions that have been made. One is cutting urban density
in half with the two possibilities for bringing the density back up.
Transportation planning, they're --
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Well, I think Brent Benton is the only guy
that got the message in his column.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Well, I just wanted to get the opportunity
to put that out there. And then we also, you know
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: In fairness to the reporter, while it
wasn't the focus, that was mentioned in his story.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Well, I think it's pretty darn significant
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Well, I think --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: -- we cut urban density.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: -- it is significant. We reduced it from
four to two, that we're working on a framework within the rural
fringe, and that we captured an opportunity to do a better job in the
strategic long-range planning in the rural. I think that's the
story. And it may not be glamorous, but it certainly is a major step
forward for somebody in the Growth Management Plan.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay. So we have a motion and a second on
the floor. Is there any other discussion?
MR. MULHERE: Madam Chairwoman, I'm sorry, I just wanted to add
also that we will be bringing back at the same time a couple of
executive summaries; one dealing with the Greiner study for budget
amendment. And also, the second dealing with retaining Dr. Nicholas
and consultants to help us work on that interim development transfer
right process, which the board requested.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: How much have we paid them so far?
Page 36
March 23, 1999
MR. MULHERE: $60,000.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE:
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay.
Thank you.
All in favor, please say aye, Thank
you,
(Unanimous vote of ayes.)
And it passes unanimously,
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: It was kind of like the wave there.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: The wave, that's it.
Item #8El
IMPROVED AND EXPANDED "COLLIER SERVES" PROGRAM INITIATIVE - PRESENTED
BY COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR FERNANDEZ
Okay, our county administrator has a presentation on the
improved and expanded Collier Serves program initiative.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Thank you, Madam Chairwoman.
Just briefly, I'd like to summarize a new program that we
started last year in '98 called Collier Serves. It was designed to
explain and educate the public about governmental services, the
services that we provide as county government. The program was so
successful last year that we decided to expand it this year. This
year we're doing it four times during the tourist season, primarily,
when we have more visitors with us. And we've gotten a very
favorable response so far.
We've improved the information that we handed them, we've
improved the packets, we've improved the transportation. We've also
highlighted Sugden Park as our premier county park, our newest park,
and as I said, we've received excellent feedback to the program.
I've enjoyed participating in that.
We've also had the cooperation of the constitutional officers
and all the county departments. We've also enhanced the publicity
for the program, using Channel 54, as well as radio spot
announcements.
Madam Chairwoman, for my second item, I'd like to announce the
initiation of a new status reporting process. Mr. Ilschner will be
handing to you the documents that we'll be using on a quarterly
basis. This is for conveying to the board and to the public the
status of our capital projects. It includes 13 different sections,
so if you'll see on the tabs on the side there, it's easy to
reference the different categories of capital projects. They include
Page 37
March 23, 1999
airport, beach and inlet management facilities, median landscaping,
MSTU, parks, solid waste, stormwater, traffic signal, transportation,
wastewater, reclaimed water and water projects.
In fact, I've already had the opportunity to use it. I had a
request over the weekend about when are we putting in a traffic light
on so-and-so corner, and I was able to turn very quickly to the map.
Each section includes three different components. It includes a map
showing where the projects are located in the county, a schedule
indicating when the projects are planned to be completed, and also, a
data base printout for each project.
We're providing this, as I said, to each commissioner. We'll
also have the information on the county's Web site, the county's
public works Web page. We'll include a reference to thisj project
status report is what it's called, and you can access that directly.
In fact, even those people who don't have computers at home can
access it by coming to the library and using the computers there at
the library.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Tell me how to do that? Do we have a Web
page or an address or something?
MR. FERNANDEZ: Yes, we have an address. It's Collier -- it's
CO.Collier.FL.US.
COMMISSIONER BERRY:
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE:
US page.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Yes. And you turn to project status report
within the public works engineering Web page, so --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Oh, so this is a printout of the Web --
MR. FERNANDEZ: That's a printout of the Web page right there.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: That's just great.
MR. FERNANDEZ: CO.Collier.FL.US is how you get that.
We'll be updating these on a quarterly basis. We'll be
collecting them back from you and refilling them with more current
information.
I think it will be a very useful tool, and we're excited about
using this in the future, for us to be able to keep tabs on where the
projects are. This typically is an area that we get a lot of
interest from the public, and I think this will be a very useful
tool.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: I think they actually did this because they
got calls from me all the time wondering what was going on, so --
MR. FERNANDEZ: We get calls from all of you all the time.
It's on the top of the page.
Oh, it's just the regular Collier, Florida

MR. FERNANDEZ: Thank you.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I should speak for myself, that I can
understand. I just think that's fantastic. So glad to get started
on this. And I urge the public to pay attention to this. This is
where your money's being spent. Now you can see.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Now that we have them, all they have to do
is come in, if you want to see it. It's right here. We can show it
to you.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: We should put these in the library, too,
these hard copies, similar to ours.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Great idea.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Good idea.
Yeah, I was going to say --
I thank you very much for this.
I do, too. I think this is fantastic.
Excellent job. Really is.

Item #lOA
DISCUSSION REGARDING SHERIFFIS OFFICE OPERATIONS/ADMINISTRATION
FACILITIES - OPTION 1 APPROVED, PROJECT ON HORSESHOE DRIVE TO BE PUT
ON HOLD
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Item 10{A), hot dog, we're going to talk
about the Sheriff's Office space again. I can't wait.
Commissioner Constantine, get us started, please.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: This plan is so simple, I don't know
how we didn't come up with it to start with.
The idea is pretty simple, and that is that the Sheriff's folks
are moving out of Building A as we speak, I guess -- and kind of like
Judge Meale.
As currently planned as we decided a couple of weeks ago,
they're going to have to move about three more times before they end
up in their, as I was jokingly calling it, final resting place.
If we went ahead now two years ahead of time and started our
work on the addition to Building J, it's actually in two parts, and
so if we only did one part of that -- and I've laid out for you and
gave all of you a little memoranda on that -- but option one shows
just adding the first part, which is roughly the same square footage
as Building A, so we don't get into the DRI issue, as long as
Building A isn't being used.
If we happened to miraculously move through the DRI process
really, really fast, we could add option two, which is to add both
parts at the same time.
But the design/build team which we already have in place has
indicated this could be built realistically within an 11 to 14-month
window, which means roughly at the conclusion of the temporary space
we'd be leasing for these Building A folks, they could move into
their final working quarters and then avoid several moves, probably
save some money there, surely make them more happy and our Sheriff's
Department more efficient.
There were a number of questions on how do we do the funding and
so on, which I've outlined in there, and I know the county
administrator has worked on refining some of that since that. But
this seems like a commonsense way of being more efficient, saving a
little money and getting the job done two years ahead of schedule.

March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Well, Commissioner, I would agree with
you, and I'm just wondering, where was the Sheriff when we had all
these conversations?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Actually, if I could say, Commissioner, I
think he was saying would you please do this. He was saying would
you please build me space; he just didn't think that we would be
Building J for him, so would we build some temporary space.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Unfortunately, nobody ever said that
in this room. But the -- much like I said to him when he was giving
us the walk down memory lane, where we are is probably more important
than how we got here. If we have a chance to fix this now, perhaps
we can.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: What happens to the people in Building A
who stood out here --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: They're in their leased space. I've signed
those leases.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Okay. They are moved there, they're out
until?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Well, theY're ready to be out.
MR. FERNANDEZ: They're ready to be out.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: We've signed leases for them, I'll tell you
that,
MR. FERNANDEZ: In the process of
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Yeah, under this suggestion, they
would still go to their temporary leased space and get them out of
the alleged sick building, and so they would be happy and healthy for
the coming year --
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Okay.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: until the final Building J was
completed.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I'm just frustrated we --
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Because that was a concern to me, that if
they were going to stay in Building A, we're still in the same
scenario, same problem.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Yeah, that's not my suggestion at
all.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Okay, fine.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I'm just frustrated that we didn't get this
proposal, frankly, from our staff as we were struggling with this
issue. But it does to me seem to be too simple to be anything other
than the logical thing to do.

March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER BERRY:
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE:
this?
MR. FERNANDEZ: Madam Chairwoman, we have
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: You're beating up on everybody today.
You're beating up the paper, you're beating up staff.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I'm grouchy.
MR. FERNANDEZ: We've taken a thorough look at this proposal,
we've attempted to refine the figures with a view toward how we fund
this proposal. We've looked at some of the funding options. In
order to do that, we first had to get a realistic idea of what the
costs were actually going to be, including all things that were
involved in the costs, and I think Mr. Ochs and Mr. Camp can help us
with some of those details.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Mr. Fernandez, does staff agree with
Commissioner Constantine's assessment, that there will be not an
effect on our DRI process?
MR, FERNANDEZ: That's a question we can't know the answer to at
this time. We have some consultation that we have had with various
officials regarding that issue, and we can cover that in our
presentation. We think there may be some hope that we can minimize
it.
I think the real answer there is the DRI threshold will have to
be crossed anyway as we develop this campus. It may change the
timetable somewhat from what we've talked about. But I think more
problematic than the DRI issue is the water management issue and the
drainage issues. Those can be resolved, but we think it's just going
to take longer. And as I said, Mr. Camp can go into more detail
about that.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Commissioner Norris, I did talk with
the RPC folks about that, and as long as we're not increasing square
footage, they can work with us. But I think Mr. Fernandez is right.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I think probably the touchier issue would
be by management and whether or not we can add that much impervious
space without creating some pervious space. Maybe by demolition of
Building A, which --
MR. FERNANDEZ: That's essentially what we'll have to -- we'll
have to demolish building A, and then it will bring some additional
costs on how we close the ends of Building A, where it attaches to
this building and where it attaches to the courthouse. That will be
some additional costs there to close those up.
Maybe we need to hear from staff.
Maybe we do. Do we have staff comment on
Page 43
March 23, 1999
Mr. Ochs?
MR. OCHS:
Yes. Thank you, Mr. Fernandez. Good morning,
For the record, Leo Ochs, support services
commissioners.
administrator.
Most of the remarks I was going to make have already been made.
I just wanted to add that as we stand here today, the two unknowns
are the DRI process. Those office buildings that are proposed are
not exempt from the DRI process and would require us, as Mr.
Fernandez indicated, to negotiate some kind of an arrangement on the
DRI, and also to sit with Southwest Florida Management District to
make some arrangements for a water management permit so we could
begin construction.
In the best case scenario, according to our consultants at
Wilson-Miller that are working with us on the permitting and the DRI
process, if we got an early work authorization for the water
management permit, the earliest we could expect to commence some work
would be November of this year on the project. And if we would
consider perhaps a 10 to 12-month construction time frame, that would
have us in there next fall.
Our current leases for the Sheriff's people begin April 1st, and
run for one year with a month-to-month renewal provision in those
leases, so we can renew the lease on a month-to-month basis, if we
need that additional time.
The other big issue, and I'll ask Mr. Camp to take you through
this quickly, is that staff's estimate of the cost to construct
either option one or option two differs from the numbers that you
received in Commissioner Constantine's report, and that has to do
primarily with some site improvement work, some parking issues that
are part of our master plan that may not have been considered. And I
would ask Mr. Camp just to run through those briefly for you.
MR. CAMP: For the record, Skip Camp, your facilities management
director.
If you'll look on page four, there's just an option one, an
option two as relates to associated costs. There are items, for
instance, site improvements. As you know, you have 14-inch big
chiller pipes that are underground utilities, along with fiberoptic,
stormwater, those kind of utilities that have a major impact,
especially as it relates to option two.
Now, all those utilities have to be relocated. We've taken that
into consideration. There's the demolition of Building A, and
there's some associated but maybe you consider minor items. For
Page 44
March 23, 1999
instance, the walkway that goes between this building and that
building, we would lose that, obviously, and this building would have
to be patched. And then the atrium side of the courthouse then would
also have to be somehow patched also.
We talked about underground utilities. The capacity of the
chilled water system has to be evaluated, but there's a possibility
that we may have capacity.
And then parking. For the amount of parking spaces that we'd
lose, we'd have to somehow make up. And I've put some provisions in
there for that.
And then if you look at the second page of the spreadsheet, it
just tells you -- it gives you some numbers for option one and option
two. The roadway, for instance, on both options has to be redone.
Those buildings will sit right over current streets, current roads.
If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer them, but
those are some considerations you should --
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Skip Camp, what happens -- you know, I see
option one and option two. Are there some cost savings if we do
option two where we don't have any breakup in the schedule of what
we're trying to do? Otherwise, we do one and then we've got to come
back and finish the project.
MR. CAMP: There are some savings as it relates to mobilization.
They may be as little as or as high as 35 or $40,000, depending. If
the construction company has to remobilize each time, certainly
you're going to pay for that.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Option two would trigger the DRI
process, certainly, though; is that correct?
MR. CAMP: Well, both options are not exempt from the DRI. We're
going to be looking for exceptions.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I'm not suggesting that option one is
exempt. However, if we're doing an even trade for square footage,
there's a possibility that it does not clear the DRI process.
MR. CAMP: Well, we're already in the DRI process, so --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: But we won't make a threshold that --
MR. CAMP: -- but we expect it we'll try to reference an
exception, Commissioner.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Madam Chair?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Madam Chairman, am I being that
unclear?
MR. CAMP: I'm sorry.
Page 45
March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: option one is less bureaucratic via
the DRI process than option two?
MR. CAMP: I don't know that to be a fact, but I did bring our
consultant to answer that question. So if you will, I have a
representative of Wilson-Miller to address that.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Madam Chairwoman?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Yes?
MR. FERNANDEZ: I will say that option one is better from a
staff perspective because of the funding, the lower funding number,
obviously. This funding will have to come from the CIP capacity that
we have.
We took a look at the -- at spreading the funding out over a
five-year period using the Commercial Paper Program to do that. As it
appears, the debt service requirement for the 800 megahertz system
has about the same amount -- roughly the same amount of payment
requirement. That goes away after the first year into a much lower
payment, which creates some capacity there without a significant
impact on the rest of your capital improvement projects until the
year 2004 where the 800 megahertz requirement balloons up to $500,000
again, and in that year it will be a little more difficult.
But the funding capacity issue is one that I think drives the
decision towards option one. The square footage is commensurate with
the square footage that the Sheriff has currently in Building A, and
we think from a funding standpoint that's the one that seems to be
more feasible than the other.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I see the Sheriff's facilities manager.
I'm sorry?
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Gary young.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Gary?
MR. YOUNG: Yeah.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Are you here to make a comment on this
topic and tell us if you like where we're going?
COMMISSIONER BERRY: While he's coming up, can I ask a question?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Please.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: On option two, that's the one where you
would have to come back and remobilize and finish off?
MR. CAMP: Either option, you would have to do that.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Either option you would have to do that.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Option two is essentially more square footage,
it's a larger facility. Also, the function of the ultimate
functional use of the space is different. Option A is administrative
Page 46
March 23, 1999
space. Option two is operations. And we understand that for
purposes of potential sales tax funding, operational space may be a
little more acceptable to the public than administrative space. So
if we could deal with administrative space in this context, it would
also help us in that area.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: One of the concerns, too, is the disruption
of construction. You just need to think about it. It sounds great,
but it's not a whole lot of fun to do it that way.
MR. YOUNG: My name is Gary Young from the Sheriff's Office,
administrative assistant.
We'd be glad to change the name to operation space, if that
would make it go faster. That's the first thing.
The Sheriff wrote a letter over, which I'm sure you received a
copy, of saying he recommended option two. I presume that the option
one and two were the same one Mr. Constantine -- has he enumerated
them? I haven't seen the -- your -- the Sheriff recommended that,
was my understanding, because he thought as long as you were doing
it, it would be less disruption to do it at the time. It's a good
thing to build a building and build a shell, because you can come
back in with minimum disruption to your operation and then finish it
out later on.
We selected the site on the south side. That's not curved in
granite. We picked that because it seemed the easiest place to put
it where you could tie into the existing elevators and the existing
flow in the hall. Also, if we moved it on the other side, we'd have
to tear down the monument, which we don't really want to do, the
memorial to slain police officers.
I'm not a design engineer, but it seems to me like it could be
addressed many ways. You could start out and have it where you could
drive under this building and park under it and tie it into the lip
of the second story. And then you don't lose any parking at all.
And then you're up over the nine-foot elevation, which is the road
right -- the elevation of the road out in front of the building in
case we do have a hurricane here.
But that's not my bailiwick, but it seems to me those were
simple things, You could put -- you could put an oblong building,
which costs the least to build. That's why we recommended that.
I'll be glad to answer any of your questions, if I can.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Board members?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: No, I just had a comment.
Page 47
March 23, 1999
I think you all have the letter
in the little packet I distributed,
and he said well, obviously he would
MR. YOUNG: Certainly.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: He'd certainly prefer to have option
one rather than move everybody around three times.
You know, it's a question of what's financially viable and what
we can and cannot do. The two problems are: One, if we do both --
if we do option two, both parts at the same time, that we get into
some of the cost issues; and two, we can potentially get into a
longer bureaucratic process for permitting.
So it's a question of whether we can achieve what we need to,
still, if we do both parts.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Mr. Fernandez, your recommendation is
option one?
MR. FERNANDEZ: Yes.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Well, I understand then --
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: I'll make a motion that we do option one.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Yeah, I understand the reasoning behind
option one, and it doesn't preclude the fact that if we get the
funding in the future that we couldn't shift gears and get it into
option two. But right now one seems to be the same direction.
COMMISSIONER MAC'KIE: And I'm sorry I don't get this yet, but
does option one include a building that is built such that a floor
could be added in the future?
MR. CAMP: Option one is a two-story building that the entire
building would be finished.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: And this meets the administrative needs of
the Sheriff.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay, there's a motion for option one.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: How are we going to fund this again?
MR. FERNANDEZ: Essentially by taking from your list of CIP
projects. As I said, it will be -- it will mean --
COMMISSIONER BERRY: What are those projects?
MR. FERNANDEZ: I think we've included a list in your packet.
Mr. Smykowski can detail those for you.
MR. SMYKOWSKI: For the record, Michael Smykowski, budget
director.
The funding source -- the board, as part of the adopted fiscal
year 2000 budget policy, approved an allocation of eight and a
in your packet, the last page,
And the Sheriff and I did speak
prefer to have all of it.
Page 48
March 23, 1999
quarter million dollars from general fund available to fund capital
projects. I don't think that -- I don't believe that's in your
package.
The -- off the top, we have to fund the 800 megahertz debt
service in fiscal year 2000. It's approximately a million-four.
utilizing the commercial paper program over a five-year period would
take, in terms of debt service, it could be approximately a million-
five annually.
So essentially what we're doing is creaming off the top of that
eight and a quarter million dollar allocation, you would fund the 800
megahertz debt service first, and then obviously you would have to
fund the principal and interest payment on this building prior to
considering new capital non-CIE capital project requests. That would
leave approximately --
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: So the big challenge is year one and
potentially year five.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Right.
MR. FERNANDEZ: And that will leave you instead of eight million
dollars for capital projects in year one, about five million dollars.
And then in year five, in the year 2004, you would have $500,000
less than that -- no, 500,000 more, because you have the 800
megahertz funding jumping up to 500,000.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: And out of that, when you said
instead of eight this coming year, we'd have five, A half of that
three is for radio, anyway.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Yes.
MR. SMYKOWSKI: Correct. Obviously you'd have to fund the debt
service before taking on new project requests.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: So we're adding -- we're spending the first
million and a half of money -- of our eight million dollar capital
budget in addition to the 800 megahertz that we already have
committed to spend. The first available million and a half of what's
really six and a half million, because a million and a half is
committed to megahertz.
MR. SMYKOWSKI: That's correct.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: So we have six and a half, we're spending
the first million and a half of that if we go with option one.
MR. FERNANDEZ: That's right.
MR. SMYKOWSKI: Right. And frankly, that's one of the
downsides. Obviously you have one and a half million dollars less in
Page 49
March 23, 1999
discretionary, but obviously you're fixing a long-term problem as
well, so --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And we're gonna -- we'll see this as part
of the capital improvement budget as we go through the process.
MR. SMYKOWSKI: That is correct.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: But can you give us just some general idea
what would have been in this slot? What are we bumping?
COMMISSIONER BERRY: That's what I'm asking --
MR. FERNANDEZ: Yes.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: -- what projects are going by the wayside
if we do.
MR. FERNANDEZ: I have a list of projects. These are projects
that were recommended in fiscal year '99 -- I'm sorry, requested but
not recommended, okay? They were -- part of our process was not part
of staff recommendation to the board.
COMMISSIONER MAC'KIE: But that's what you would reasonably
expect to see coming back to you this year --
MR. FERNANDEZ: They will probably be first in line.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: and one of them last year.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Yes.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: so theY're going to -- okay.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Financial management system for 500,000. We had
the fourth floor of the courthouse, but then we came back late in the
process and finally funded all of that, so that's not on this list
anymore.
Renovations, reroofing, air conditioner units and so forth, to
the tune of about $800,000. Orangetree substation, 1.3 million.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: We're going to fund that with the
proceeds of the Marco station, aren't we?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I like that.
MR. FERNANDEZ: New fleet maintenance facility, 1.2 million.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: What was the 1.2?
MR. FERNANDEZ: New fleet maintenance facility.
The Belle Meade master plan, 300,000. Gateway triangle
improvements, $759,000. And my favorite, Australian pine removal,
300,000.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Which actually, if I were to
prioritize these things, there's less than five million dollars total
there that I would put above --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: What's the total of that list you just read
out?
Page 50
March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Excluding--
MR. FERNANDEZ: I don't have it.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Somebody get a calculator real quick.
MR. SMYKOWSKI: It's almost seven million dollars.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: How much of that, though, is the
courthouse that you said we've already taken care of?
MR. SMYKOWSKI: A million-eight.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: So now we're at six and a half million on
that list, and we've got five million left to spend.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: That's why we have budget assessments.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Yeah. Sounds doable.
MR. SMYKOWSKI: And you also need to recognize, obviously
annually in the process, the number of projects vying for that
available eight million dollars is typically 30, 40, 50 million
dollars --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Right.
MR. SMYKOWSKI: -- anyway, so
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Okay, I have one other question.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: What does this do to the overall plan in
terms of buildings for this campus?
MR. FERNANDEZ: That's the reason why we could recommend it.
It's consistent with our overall plan.
Initially, to speak to Commissioner Mac'Kie's question there,
the original plan was to consider the entire jail and administrative
space as one package and, therefore, it was of such a size that we
felt that the only legitimate way to address that was for the funding
source for the entire project to be secured before we proceeded
forward with it.
But breaking it up into pieces allows us to look
funding mechanisms for it. It is part of the plan.
the highest priority in the first phase of the plan.
that the funding source needed to be in place before
with it.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay, we have a motion. Is there a second?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I'll second it.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Any further discussion on the motion? If
not, all in favor, please say aye.
Opposed?
(No response.)
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Passes unanimously.
at alternative
In fact, it is
We had just felt
we proceeded
Page 51
March 23, 1999
Thank you, Commissioner Constantine, for bringing this to us.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Madam Chairwoman, there is the matter of the
previous board action that the board needs to consider, whether to
proceed with the building at Horseshoe or not. Presently we're in
the process of receiving requests for proposals -- or proposals for
that project. We do know that process is very expensive on the part
of those entities that propose. So if the board wishes to suspend
that activity, we need to do that at this time.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Commissioner Constantine had a thought on
that.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: The public works requirements, Mr.
Ilschner, don't actually show that necessary for another couple of
years; is that correct? We were trying to do this because it fit,
you know, an unusual situation.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Come to the mike, please.
MR. ILSCHNER: Yes, sir, that's correct.
MR. FERNANDEZ: I would say the need was not as urgent as this
was. But we felt that it was an expedient way of getting at this
need and meeting that one at the same time. They're both in the
first phase of that master plan.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Considering our --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Limited budget anyway.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Yeah, limited budget anyway, I'd say
we should probably hold that off until it does reach that level a

COMMISSIONER NORRIS: If that's a motion, I'll second it.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I'll make that motion.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And you'll second it.
Is there any further discussion on that motion? If not, all in
favor of that motion, please say aye.
Opposed?
(No response.)

COMMISSIONER BERRY:
a break.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Probably do need to give our court reporter
a break. But then you know what, we're going to finish, right?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Yes, we are.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: All right, we'll take a 10-minute break.
Be back at 10 till.
(Recess. )
And that passes unanimously.
I think we need to give our court reporter
Page 52
March 23, 1999
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay, we'll call the meeting back to order,
Board of County Commissioners, March 23rd, 1999.
I've been asked by our county administrator to open the meeting
with some comments on the last item that we were discussing before
the break, so we'll start there.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Madam Chairwoman, we discussed the fact that we
need to reconsider our plan for the RFP for the building, for the
public works building.
During the break, Mr. Ilschner and I discussed the fact that his
need for relocating the transportation staff is critical, and we
would be needing to come back to the board for leases for that space.
And I responded by saying we just told the board that that was not as
high a priority as Building A, so I'm not sure the board would be
receptive to that.
I also know that we have substantial crowding with Department of
Revenue and Health Department in the Horseshoe complex. So I
intended to at least inform the board of our need to come back to you
at a later point in time in order to meet those immediate needs. And
it mayor may not warrant the kind of square footage we were talking
about before, we there will be some need for additional space to meet
the immediate cramping.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: So maybe we need to keep that RFP process
alive. Because the alternative is going to be leasing space, which
is --
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I apologize for missing the first
part of that. Can you tell me that again?
MR. FERNANDEZ: I was saying that we had a conversation over the
break with Mr. Ilschner, and he indicated that there will be the need
for us to come back to the board and ask for additional space for the
transportation staff, because they are cramped.
And I indicated that I felt that our comments at the end of that
last discussion would have not made the board very receptive to that
request for additional lease space, and I felt that we wouldn't be a
position to request that.
I thought that it would be more appropriate to come back and let
the board know that we will have that need for additional space. The
staff in the transportation department is severely cramped.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: How many square feet, though, are we
going to need? Because we're talking about a 59,000 square building,
and I can't imagine we need 59,000 square feet of additional space
for our transportation staff.
Page 53
March 23, 1999
MR. FERNANDEZ: Mr. Camp should be able to speak to the square
footage number.
MR. CAMP: For the record, Skip Camp.
You would not need considerable square footage. It's totally
different from the 60,000 that you were going to build. It would be
substantially less. The type you would probably lease first rather
than build.
MR. FERNANDEZ: But do you have a ballpark number of the square
footage for transportation relocation?
MR. CAMP: I don't have it right now. I'd have to go back to my
office.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Let me just make sure I heard your
last comment there. All right, in fact we'd probably lease rather
than build, because it's a fairly small amount.
MR. CAMP: Leasing is an option that we've used in the past to
fill that gap, and that's something I would recommend for a
department like that at this point.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: It sounds like we still want to
suspend the RFP process for that 60,000 square foot building.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And you're just sort of giving us the heads
up that you're going to be back probably with some lease request.
MR. FERNANDEZ: We'll be back with some lease request.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Is that okay with the board, or do you want
to reconsider the RFP?
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: No.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: No.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: I think that's the --
COMMISSIONER CARTER: No, I think I'm okay. I just think you
need to have a coordinated approach here between public works and
Skip Camp and yourself, Mr. Administrator, so that we know when some
people tell me it won't be substantial. I don't know what that
means.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Right.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: I want a definitive answer to these
things. I will want to know how much we're going to have to lease,
and if we're going to suspend this process, fine, but I don't want
any big surprises down the road.
MR. CAMP: The difference may be 10 to 15,000 versus 60,000. I
consider that substantially different.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Madam Chairwoman?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Yes.
Page 54
March 23, 1999
MR. FERNANDEZ: Your comment about lease being not as cost
effective as the building and space, though, is something that is
appropriate to consider. Ultimately there will be the need for the
additional space. It's not as pressing currently as it was when we
were considering moving the people from Building A. But there is
going to be the ultimate need there, and I do have the concern of
leasing space when ultimately we're going to have to find permanent
space for those employees.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Well, as Commissioner Carter was saying, it
really is for me anyway a financial analysis, what's the cost of the
carry for the funding that would have to be doing our commercial
paper, I assume, to carry a 59,000 square foot building that we don't
need yet versus what's the cost of this leased space, which we don't
know how much that is, because we don't know if it's 5,000 or 2,000
or, you know, 10,000 square feet.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I haven't heard anything that would
change my mind as far as going ahead with the RFP process.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Okay.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: So -- but I have heard that -- well, when
will you be coming back to us then?
MR. FERNANDEZ: We can do -- I think by the next meeting we
should be able to do a lease analysis versus purchase cost
effectiveness kind of thing. That should be relatively simple.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Is that acceptable to the board?
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: That's quite acceptable.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: It's quite acceptable to me. And then you
will know exactly whether -- how many square footage you're going to
have to build or lease, and that will change your RFP process.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: So do we want to sort of suspend this RFP -
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Yes.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: -- for now?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: That was the direction we had given
as part of our motion before.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay. We're staying with that?
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Yes.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: We're going to stay with that until the
next meeting, and that still gives us enough time to make a decision,
once we've got the analysis.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay, that's direction.
Page 55
March 23, 1999
MR. FERNANDEZ: So the direction is to continue with the RFP
process --
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: No, no.
MR. FERNANDEZ: To suspend the RFP process. So we're going to
pull those back off --
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: If you happen to come back and be
able to convince us we need a 60,000 square foot building
immediately, we'll consider it
MR. FERNANDEZ: Okay.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: but for the time being, it's
suspended.
MR. FERNANDEZ: Okay, thank you.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Suspended for two weeks, as I understand
it
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE:
COMMISSIONER CARTER:
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE:
COMMISSIONER CARTER:
Yeah.
-- until we come back.
That's it, essentially.
Thank you.

Item #10H
RESOLUTION 99-187, APPOINTING ROBERT LAIRD TO THE CONTRACTORS
LICENSING BOARD - ADOPTED
Contractors' Licensing Board.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: This one I've got a little question
on. I know there was a state law change and we were supposed to do
whatever it is we're doing here, but there's two concerns. We had
two folks -- well, we had one person resign, only I'm told they
resigned -- it was a fairly new appointeet they were told, because
they were the newest one and had the least senioritYt they'd be
forced offt so they turned in their resignation, And Ms. Filson had
recommended one of the others who was going in June anyway. And
perhaps we ought to just wind that one up. That was a conclusion of
the second term for that person; is that right?
MS. FILSON: Yes, two full terms,
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: That individual is not real
enthusiastic after putting in nearly two full terms and being asked
to leave prematurely.
The suggestion is that if we need to appoint the one for the
resignation, even though it's not -- it wasn't fully voluntary, that
we go ahead and do that, but the second one, we wait till June.
I know, Mr. Weigel, you're going to say golly, this shouldn't be
happening now, but what penalty can possibly happen if we let the one
individual complete his term until June and then fill that
appointment?
MR. WEIGEL: I'll say golly, I think you're on the right track
there --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: They may consult him.
MR, WEIGEL: -- in the sense that the statute doesn't seem to
give any leeway. But I think if you go on record todaYt we've got
one on, another one coming and a third that's shown to be coming,
that we'll be in good shape, I think. We'll defend that to the
utmost.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Can you make that into a motion somehow?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I was just going to suggest that we
only appoint one, and that's just to fill the vacancy via the
resignation that came in. I don't have a preference here. If
someone does, I really --

CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I'd like to see Mr. Laird appointed to that

CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Is there a second?
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Second,
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Second.

Item #11A1
REQUEST TRANSFER OF $2,982,100 FROM GENERAL FUND RESERVES TO THE
RESERVES OF THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE - NO ACTION
And now one more time at discussing the sheriff's three million
dollars to be transferred from general fund reserves to reserves of
the Sheriff's Office.
Got something new to say, Crystal?
MS. KENZEL: Probably not, Commissioners, so I won't stand here
for a long time. For the record, crystal Kenzel, finance director
for the Sheriff's Office,
This is one attempt that we would like to open some discussion,
or hope to resolve, the reserve issue locally. If not, we are moving
forward on the appeal process,
We have some things coming up over the summer that we've
identified in the executive summary, including unfortunately what we
read about the 800,000 reconsideration of Marco Island. That's again
pending and won't be determined until April 5th.
We also have some pay plan issues that were under a pay plan
survey right not. We anticipate that we may well need reserve funds
available to update our pay plan.
Those are the only two issues that we specifically have
identified. We may have some other emergency equipment issues
throughout the year. And again, it goes back to we would just like
some identification of those reserves in the Sheriff's budget
available for those emergency items as they arise. That's it.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: The alternative would be to come back to
the County Commission and say we need this money out of the reserves,
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Yeah, that's what I was going to say.
State statute I think is fairly clear that reserves need to be
requested individually as the necessity is there.
Reading the executive summary, it says the Sheriff's Office may
have needs that exceed the current appropriation, Needs may include,
and it goes on to list. And those aren't specific requests, and I
don't think it's in conformance with state statute, so I don't
support that.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Appreciate you coming, though, Crystal.
MS. KENZEL: Thank you. And I do want to leave on a positive
note, since I am usually over here.
Page 64
March 23, 1999
I want to thank you for taking some action towards our space. I
know it's been a long process, but I do see some relief on the
horizon, and I think that as we work through this process for new
space, I think that will be good for all of us in Collier County, so
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And Chris, I'd like to take a chance to
apologize to you publicly for my demeanor the last time you were
here. I was so frustrated with the process that I think I took it
out on you. But I do apologize.
MS. KENZEL: Well, that's all right, we ended on a better note
than usual, so --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: There you go.
MS. KENZEL: -- I appreciate that. Thank you.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay, So--
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Madam Chairman, can I ask a question on
reserves, just for edification?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Please.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Do all constitutional officers have
reserves with us?
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Yeah, five percent.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Five percent state mandated.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: State mandated.
MR. FERNANDEZ: They're all covered within the county's general
fund reserve,
COMMISSIONER CARTER: So then each time --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Just like the Sheriff,
COMMISSIONER CARTER: -- he needs to do that, they come to us
for a request, so they are no different --
MR. FERNANDEZ: That's correct,
COMMISSIONER CARTER: All right, that's fine. I can understand.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Although the Sheriff would say that he has
a special statutory authorization for these reserves to be separate,
and that is the issue to go before the Governor and Cabinet at this
point.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Which is interesting for two reasons,
One, each budget here they have been very careful to not include
reserves as what their total budget is, so either it is theirs or it
isn't. And apparently during budget season it's not.
It's also interesting that it's been 11 years discovering that
that was the procedure,
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay, Does this --
Page 65
March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Thank you for explaining the system.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Does this require any kind of a motion, Mr,
Weigel, or just do we consider the request and there was no
affirmative action taken?
MR. WEIGEL: You can do it as you've just done it, yes.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay.
Item #11B1
ELLIE KRIER RE PREPARING HOMES FOR HURRICANE PROCESS, AND ADD-ON
ITEMS BEING AVAILABLE FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC
Do we have public comment on general topics today?
MR, FERNANDEZ: Yes, Madam Chairwoman, you do, First speaker is
Ellie Krier and then Ty Agoston.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Ty, if you're here, come back in.
MR, WEIGEL: He's not.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Or forever hold your peace.
MS. KRIER: Good morning. For the record, Ellie Krier, with the
Naples Area Chamber of Commerce.
I'm coming before you this morning to talk to you about an event
that the disaster recovery committee of the Chamber EC Coalition is
putting on. That committee has come to you before over the years,
especially with the reentry sticker program that we initiated two
years ago.
On Tuesday, March the 30th on Saint John's on Illth Avenue from
10:00 a.m. until 8:00 p,m., there's going to be a hurricane product
show, of both shows and services.
The emergency manager, as well as the Sheriff's Office and the
Naples Police Department, came to us and said we need as a
sustainable community to get the homes of our part-time residents
ready before they leave town, One of the problems they faced after
Hurricane Georges was that their phone lines were clogged with people
out of state calling to say is my house okay. And one of their goals
is to get these homes prepared and exposed to these products now.
So this is free and -- I lost it there for a minute. This --
they have seminars as well. This program is free and open to the
public, And it's our goal to get as many of our part-time residents
there as possible so that they're exposed to the kinds of products
available that can secure their homes to make -- so that we're not
cleaning up a mess because the home wasn't secure,
Page 66
March 23, 1999
And finally, on a second note, I do have a request, and that is
that although recognizing the tight time frame your staff was under
on turning around on the density issues, when there are not handouts
available through the packet that we all received, if staff could be
prepared with material so that when an item is added on, we have what
you have in a timely manner on those times when it doesn't corne
before us in our packets, We would really appreciate that.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Probably out on the table in the hallway
would be appropriate as they make copies.
MS. KRIER: We had two issues of that this morning, and we would
appreciate that in general. Thank you very much.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Very good point. Thank you for bringing
that up.
Item #11B2
TY AGOSTON RE SOUTHERN GOLDEN GATE ESTATES, AGENDA PACKETS AND
PARTICIPATION OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC DURING PUBLIC COMMENT SECTION OF
THE AGENDA
Mr. Agoston.
MR, AGOSTON: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. My name is Ty
Agoston. This is the first chance this year I've had an opportunity
to use this function of your meeting.
And there are a couple of things I would like to make a comment
on, I don't walk on stairs as well as I used to.
MR. FERNANDEZ: None of us do,
MR. AGOSTON: Let me work it backwards, The young lady just
before me had made an apropos comment. I attended that meeting here
Friday. And, frankly, I resented the fact that I did not have the
information available to me that was obviously available to you. And
a gentleman that we apparently have spent a substantial amount of
money in consulting fees have exposed some pearls of wisdom that I
thought was interesting,
One of them was that it appears that the land east of the
Estates was evaluated in the area of 3,000 -- top of my head, 3,000,
some odd hundred dollars per acre, The people in Southern Golden
Gate Estates have just received from the Department of Environmental
Protection agency, or whoever, the sub-head of that, $1,000 per acre
for the land that's essentially closer to town than where I live, or
surely, the eastern boundaries of the Estates.
Page 67
March 23, 1999
So somebody is pulling something here, and you guys are
responsible, Because I was here when the subject carne up about
allowing power in there, and you declined to give him power,
Consequently, the people can't build because they cannot run a
refrigerator. So in terms of pointing fingers, I want to say that as
far as I'm concerned, I would hold you guys responsible. There's
nobody else.
All those poor people, that little Cuban guy who had tears out
of his eyes that the government wanted to offer him 400 bucks for
something that he paid 4,000 for, that's your fault. All fairness,
you know, there's no other way.
Going a little further, is it my understanding that you will
from here on in provide material to those people who, or
organizations who, buy annually the executive summary so they be as
informed at this meeting as you are? And I would like to encourage
you to do so, and hopefully you'll come up with that kind of a
decision.
Additionally, I have detected a kind of a long-term process, and
I think I even wrote a letter to the editor, that you have managed to
discourage people's participation at these proceedings. I would be
willing to bet my bottom dollar that people -- or the number of
people making a public comment, since you have gone to this twice a
month meeting, is probably down 75, 80 percent, And I think that
would be a very safe bet,
That's all I really want to say. Thank you very much.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Madam Chairman, I need to respond to
two of those items. One, you're just -- you're not right on how many
people get up and talk. They still get up and talk about issues
every bit the same. We've had this room more full the prior two
meetings than we've had in a long time, So I think you're mistaken
there, Ty,
But more importantly, my recollection is somewhat different on
the Southern Golden Gate Estates. There was about an 18-year time
frame where almost nothing happened and almost no offers were even
made, even though no power or other things were allowed out there,
It was only when this board stood up to the state and said we are
going to allow it out there unless you start moving that it actually
happened,
And then the last two years, you saw those two maps on the wall
last week. We have made a tremendous amount of progress in that,
Page 68
March 23, 1999
I don't disagree with you that some of those appear to be under
valued, but we have obviously no control over the appraisal process.
But I would say if we're responsible for anything, it's for making
that process actually move, Because for 15 to 18 years, it didn't
move at all, And all those people were in limbo, And at least now
there are some options floating around out there. So my recollection
of what this board did apparently is very different than yours.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And mine is closer to yours than to Ty's.
I feel very proud of the work we did.
Item #12C1
ORDINANCE 99-24, AMENDING THE PARKS AND RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD
ORDINANCE - ADOPTED, ACCEPTING OPTION #1
Okay, moving on to the afternoon agenda. We have 12(C) (1).
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Close the public hearing.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: It's the ordinance on parks and rec.
advisory boards. The staff report seems pretty self-explanatory,
unless we need to hear a presentation on this.
Is there a motion, or are there registered speakers?
MR. FERNANDEZ: No registered speakers, Madam Chairwoman.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: With that, I'll close the public hearing,
COMMISSIONER CARTER: I move we except staff's recommendation.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Option one? Option one is that we stay
with our prior direction to have one at large member in place of the
Marco Island city member, and option two would be that we have
members from each of the incorporated cities.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Option one, I think --
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Option one,
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: -- clearly makes more sense.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I agree.
So there's a motion, Is there a second?
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Second,
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Any further discussion?
All in favor, please say aye.
Opposed?
(No response,)
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: That passes unanimously.
Item #14

March 23, 1999
STAFF COMMUNICATIONS - COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR FERNANDEZ RE NO PAYMENTS
RECEIVED TO DATE FROM MARCO ISLAND FOR SOLID WASTE COLLECTION,
TRANSFER STATION, FLORIDA WATER AND SHERIFF'S SUB-STATION, COUNTY
ATTORNEY TO LOOK INTO THESE ISSUES AND REPORT BACK
We are down to staff communication. Mr. Weigel,
MR, WEIGEL: Nothing today, thank you.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Mr. Fernandez?
MR. FERNANDEZ: Madam Chairwoman, I do have one item. My office
received contact from the City of Marco Island last week, indicating
that they intend to reconsider their previous decision to make the
payments to the county for Sheriff services, as was referred to
earlier by Ms. Kenzel when she was here before you.
In view of that, the thought occurred to me that no payments
have been received to date for the period of time October 1st to the
current, which is roughly half of that amount. In view of the fact
that no payment has been forthcoming and Marco is in the process of
reconsidering their previous commitment to make those payments, I
thought it appropriate to ask the board if there is interest in
reconsidering the issues that we considered in December of last year,
Those issues included solid waste collection, the transfer station on
Marco Island, the sale of the water district assets to Florida Water
and holding off on that to give Marco an opportunity to consider
purchase, and the Sheriff's Marco Island substation,
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I think it's unfortunate that the
Marco Island City Council has chosen to raise some question about
their own integrity and credibility in this process, If all of us
sit down at a table and make a commitment, we need to honor that
commitment.
And for some policy change that may affect next budget year,
it's clearly inappropriate for the City Council to try to tinker with
the agreement we've made for the existing budget year. And so I
in the event they reconsider that, I would have every interest in
looking at those issues again, because we all came to agreement, we
went through a long process to get there, we all sat and looked
across the table at each other, and I expect that agreement to be
kept. And it's just a shame the credibility should be brought into
question this way.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: I would agree with you, Commissioner
Constantine, I expect what we did to be honored. And if it's not,
Page 70
March 23, 1999
then I would be very much interested in pursuing what our county
administrator just related to us this morning.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Mr, Fernandez, do you anticipate any of
these items that you mentioned to be finalized before April the 5th?
MR, FERNANDEZ: No. And in fact, we would have to --
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: So why don't we just wait and see what
they do --
MR. FERNANDEZ: Okay,
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: -- before we jump off the cliff here,
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And the other thing I wonder if Mr. Weigel
should be looking into is whether or not we have some legal recourse,
I know that these things would typically be in writing, but, you
know, we had the minutes of the meetings that are signed by the
chairs of the two organizations at a joint meeting. Is that a
sufficient writing for us to bring a legal action against Marco
Island if they renege, or, you know, what are our legal alternatives?
MR. WEIGEL: Well, it's somewhat unique, obviouslYI this
relation and the commitments made. But there may well be a
possibility, and I'm very happy to look into that and report back to
you in the days ahead.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I don't intend my comments to be a
showdown or be anything else, It's just my preference is we maintain
what we all promised one another. And that's I think everyone's
clear preference up here.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: I'm just disappointed. I thought we had a
joint meeting; everybody left there feeling very pleased that we had
settled whatever the differences were. And the thing that concerns
me now is that here we are coming up toward the end of March and
there has not been a payment which we all thought was going to be
made in good faith, We accepted their numbers and said that that
would be all right, and we still have not received anything.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And in fact, it's $400,000 that's due right
now, It's not like --
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Right,
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: You know, there's two payments due,
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Well, that's my question. They haven't
paid us anything. And what is the time line for them to start
paying? I mean, how long can you sit there as a government body
entering into agreement with another government body and saying I'm
going to pay you and then not write the checks? I meanl that's --
Page 71
March 23, 1999
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And that's the question, really, for Mr.
Weigel about what is our legal recourse? At what point do we have to
take action? And hopefully this is all just talk and is not
something that a majority of the City Council will agree to do,
Because I don't think they are liars. I don't think that they will
go back on their word. And I'm anxious to see them prove me right
tonight at their meeting.
Anything else, Mr. Fernandez?
MR, FERNANDEZ: That's all I have, Madam Chairwoman.
Item #15A
DISCUSSION REGARDING ETHICS ORDINANCE
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Under Board of County Commissioners'
communication, commissioner Berry had an item.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: There has been an issue raised regarding
our new ethics ordinance in regard to the $50 limit, And does that
mean $50 a day, does that mean $50 cumulative over forever and ever?
What does that $50 mean? And I spoke with Mr. Manalich, I believe --
MR. WEIGEL: Yes.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: -- and he instructed me that in the state
statute, the $50 is if a lobbyist takes you to breakfast, lunch and
dinner, if that would happen, it's cumulative effect. In other
words, it could not exceed $50 for that day.
However, it isn't really clear that it couldn't happen five days
in a row. I mean, the reality of it happening is slim and none, but
there is that possibility, And I don't believe that it's necessarily
addressed even in the state statute,
The question has been raised locally and I'm just bringing it to
you this morning, if you want to consider anything in our particular
local ordinance in regard to this $50 limit.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: May I suggest that we let the dust
settle a little bit on what we have and see whether or not, you know,
we see a real problem there? You know, unless my wife is lobbying, I
don't think there's anybody I'm going to want to have lunch with
every day of the week. And--
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: My Earl.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: That's right, Or my dad, thank you.
You know, I think as you said, realistically that's just not
going to happen. And I want to be careful we don't get -- because if
Page 72
March 23, 1999
-- could we correct that? Sure, Could we micromanage every single
detail of that?
COMMISSIONER BERRY: That's -- exactly.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Yeah. And that's where we can I
think create something that's impossible to work with.
SOl you know, I don't care if the board wants tOI but it just
seems to me it would make sense, we put all that time in, to let the
dust settle a little bit and see what we have.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: I think Commissioner Berry raises an
interesting point, because if you want to take it into a theoretical
threshold I you could have lobbyist A for breakfast, lobbyist B for
lunch and lobbyist C for dinner.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Never pay for groceries again.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Never pay for groceries.
And it's just not realistic that that's going to happen, But if
that's what it takes eventually to convenience the community it's
there, okay but I would say at this pointl I think common sense is
driving the process for us. Most of us are not doing anything, even
though there's a question of whether I could accept a glass of water
in a lobbyist's office.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: As long as it's not a $50 glass of
water,
COMMISSIONER CARTER: As long as it's not a $50 glass of water,
I think I'm okay.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And on that subject, guys, I copied all of
you on some questions that I got from the editorial page editor of
the Naples Daily News he's asked me to respond to. You have all
gotten copies of those, haven't you?
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Yes, and I would suggest that you let the
county attorney's staff help you develop those responses,
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Yeah, my thought was that
COMMISSIONER CARTER: I had responded to those and then I'm
pulling that back and asking the county attorney to make sure that I
have not misquoted any of this in terms of our legislation.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And my responses are going to be that I can
only answer for my personal code of ethics, because it's stricter
than the county's code with regard to gifts and otherwise, so that
I'm answering yes, I could take a glass of water because I think it's
not a real value, but no, I can't take lunch, even if it's $10,
because that's my personal decision.
Page 73
March 23, 1999
But I'm deferring to the county attorney to answer with regard
to the specifics of the new ordinance, because I don't have to learn
the details of it, as long as I have clear simple break line rules
like no, it's easier. My way is easier, so I'm staying. I just
wanted you to know that.
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: Okay,
Item #15B
DISCUSSION REGARDING NOISE ORDINANCE - COUNTY ATTORNEY TO REVIEW
OTHER COMMUNITIES' NOISE ORDINANCES AND COME BACK
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Commissioner Carter had something on noise.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Yes, You have noticed for some period of
time that we have a Krehling PUD that keeps coming in front of us and
then is deferred, And part of that is that they were doing a noise
abatement study, which they now are in the process of assessing and
then coming back to us what they can do. A noise assessment study and
then going to noise abatement, And that will probably come to us
during our next session.
And the community groups, rather than having them in here in an
emotional appeal to us, have worked diligently together and the
attorney representing Krehling to see if we can't find an amenable
resolution to this,
What we have is 3,500 people living around a plant that started
probably 20 years ago out in the rural area,
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Longer than that.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: And no one ever had to pay any attention
to it. But the community has grown up around it.
And what we want to do is -- and during this process what came
to our attention is that our current noise ordinance regulation has
not been altered for several years, and there may be something that
we need to do with this,
And I would like through the board's direction to authorize the
county attorney to review the law and noise ordinance regulations in
other communities and report back to us to see that if we are doing
what we need to do in this area. So that may be a piece of what we
have to work through in this resolution with Krehling.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I have no objection to the county
attorney looking at that. I actually helped author our current noise
ordinance. We changed it about four years ago, and -- but I think
Page 74
March 23, 1999
it's -- if we were to do that and our circumstances are changed in
that time frame, I have no problem with that at all.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Good. If we could get board direction
from Weigel to investigate, that would help this process. And
hopefully by our next board meeting we will have taken this one
situation with Krehling and be able to come to a resolution so
everybody can live comfortably together.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And Commissioner Carter, I certainly don't
have an objection to looking at the noise ordinance. I want to be
careful, though, that we respect the who was there first, you know,
issues related to this and that we don't pass new rules to, you know,
run somebody out of business,
COMMISSIONER CARTER: There's no intent to run anybody out of
business. But we -- fortunately, we have two people working on the
citizen side who came from major industries that had to deal with
this, One is a former executive vice president at General Electric,
and another gentleman out of the steel industry, where they had to
deal with these issues as neighborhoods grew around them and as
situations changed. So they have been very cooperative.
And everyone is looking for a resolution to this, because they
all want to be good neighbors, and they respect the fact that
Krehling is there and is a profitable business. They're just asking
for consideration so they can sleep at night.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: That sounds like a reasonable request,
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: I can understand that but, you know, we
really have to be extremely careful, And Commissioner Mac'Kie's
statement is well taken that you have to be very, very careful about
crafting or amending ordinances to cover a site specific problem,
because you never know. If you look at it on that tight of a focus,
then you don't really understand what effects it may have on some
unintended location that is to the --
COMMISSIONER CARTER: Well, I think that's why we want to review
the ordinance, just to make sure that objectionable sounds and
noises, maybe they don't fall within our existing noise limits and
maybe we need to look at that.
And no decision has been made yet, but we ask you for the
opportunity to review it,
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Interesting little side note, before
we changed it the last time, you had to have consecutive sound for
the old measurements --
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Yeah.
Page 75
March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: -- you had to have uninterrupted
sound for at least 60 seconds. So if you had, you know, a drum beat
or a drilling every five seconds, that didn't qualify, because the
old ordinance actually had the definition read. The measurements
started every time the noise did, And so we've altered a lot of
that, But I think going through it's fine.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: So that's sufficient direction.
Commissioner Norris, did you have anything under communications?
COMMISSIONER NORRIS: I wouldn't dare have this lengthy meeting,
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I'll tell you what.
How about you, Commissioner Constantine?
Item #15C
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE RE BACK UP FOR ITEMS ON THE AGENDA BEING
RECEIVED PRIOR TO THE MEETING
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I have one item, It's regarding
communication and some concern I have coming out of the county
administrator's office on a couple of different levels.
Today we had the building J item which literally two weeks ago I
provided the backup for, I think you have the March 12th memo dated
to each one of you. And at that same time, I asked for it to be
placed on today's agenda.
with that time line in between, it's wholly inappropriate in my
mind that we get a multi-page 15, 20-page memo from our staff this
morning at 8:00 a,m. Surely there has been some work done on it in
those 10 to 14 days that we've had to prepare for the item, And when
I put an item on the agenda like that, I prefer to have that
information in advance of the meeting rather than trying to read it
while we're discussing the item. So I just think that's very poor
staff work, No offense to individual members of staff, but just we
should have that in advance.
Item #15D
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE RE THE BOARD BEING INFORMED OF TRAGEDIES OF
COUNTY EMPLOYEES
And the second thing is this weekend we had a tragedy at the
landfill. I had to hear about that via television news --
Page 76
March 23, 1999
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Ditto.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: a day later.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: It's horrible,
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: And we hope we don't have a repeat of
that sort of thing. But any time something of that magnitude goes on
in the county, the practice has traditionally been that we let the
board know, because we hear from families, we hear from individuals,
we hear from news sources, and I'd just as soon have some idea when
we have a happening like that, or have a weather event or have -- we
had the fires a couple of weeks ago. Any of those things going on,
there should be a briefing,
I don't care if it happens at 2:00 in the morning, I should get
a phone call, each one of us should, letting us know something of
some magnitude has happened. And in recent months that practice
seems to have disappeared.
Item #15E
COMMISSIONERS MAC'KIE AND BERRY RE RECENT FIRES IN GOLDEN GATE
ESTATES
And so those are just a couple of communication issues that I
think we need to correct.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE:
about the fires, that it
community emergency as a
know, get --
COMMISSIONER BERRY:
out, Commissioner.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Yeah?
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Because of your independent fire districts
-- I don't know who's here that knows about that, but anyway, the
person who -- where this district -- in this particular case, it was
the Golden Gate Fire District, that chief is the man in charge, as
opposed to the hurricane situation, which we are in charge. That is
Collier County.
But when you have your independent fire districts, it's a little
bit different arrangement,
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: We need to --
I'd just like to enforce, too, the one
seems to me that that's as significant a
hurricane. And we mobilize and we, you
We have some different issues, as I found
Page 77
March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER BERRY: But that night out at the Golden Gate civic
Association estates meeting that I want to, the chief out there had
used Bonita Springs public information officer.
There was a lot of complications, I believe, in this whole
thing, Number one, it did take place on a Sunday. There were some
issues raised there as far as trying to get information out, The
fire was so intense it melted some of the equipment that was
necessary. Like using the NOAA weather, that would have been a way
that people could have heard the TV stations. It was very difficult
not to -- or to get information to our group.
I will tell that you Gary Arnold was out there with the big
mobile outfit, but it was very difficult getting the communication,
And when the wind shifted, this created some problems as well. So
there was a time when they weren't exactly sure where that fire was
going to go,
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: And in fairness to the firefighters -
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Right.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: their number one thing to do is
make sure they stop the fire,
COMMISSIONER BERRY: Is fighting, absolutely right.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: But I assume someone on our staff in
a situation like that is communicating, even though we're not in
charge, is communicating.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: But they weren't getting the communication,
Tim. I think that was one of the big concerns is they weren't
getting the information. Not any fault of theirs or perhaps the
people that were -- maybe should have been doing the communication.
There was just a problem getting that communication,
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: And maybe what we need are some formal
agreements then with the independent fire districts,
MR. FERNANDEZ: Madam Chairwoman?
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Mr. Fernandez has --
MR, FERNANDEZ: This incident has pointed out to me the need for
us to take a new look at your emergency management plan, My
understanding is the situation, as described by Commissioner Berry,
is per described in our plan, that if the incident is fire based, the
independent fire departments have complete incident command
responsibilities, and in fact, I understand, admonished us not to be
involved in the public information aspects of this, and in fact was
not sharing a lot of information with us,
Page 78
March 23, 1999
We frankly did not have a lot of updated information to give the
board at that, because it was the province of the independent fire
district to handle that,
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: My overall point remains the same,
though, and that is -- and again, I use the example this past weekend
of a tragedy at the landfill. And we just -- I think board members
need to know when certain things --
COMMISSIONER BERRY: I agree, but I think we're looking at two
different issues, Tim.
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: Yeah,
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Right, exactly.
COMMISSIONER BERRY: The fire situation, because I got calls
obviously from residents out in the area about -- we're going back to
the fire issue now, There was some concern about notification,
finding out that maybe they ought to leave their homes, and they
couldn't find out anything about getting back to their homes,
And in a situation like this, you've got multiple agencies that
are involved, You've got the fire department, you've got the
sheriff's department, Certainly our group down here are more than
willing to, you know, be the center for this. But you've also got
some protocol here that you have to deal with and you have to
respect, and who's in charge and all those kinds of issues.
And I think Mr. Fernandez is correct, that we perhaps do need to
take a look at this. The first thing and the first call that I got,
they said, "Well, how come you handle all the information for
hurricanes and you can't do it in this situation?" And frankly, at
first I didn't know that answer, until I went to the policy and
talked to some individuals as well. And that's what the situation
is. So if we need to amend a policy and work with our independent
fire districts, I think we definitely need to approach that,
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Sounds like that's where we need to go on
that particular issue,
COMMISSIONER CARTER: I know our -- the chief in North Naples
has spoken to me about it and said that he's going to be coming in,
and he said he agrees that we need to have a better coordination
between the agencies. And they want to discuss that with us. So I
think that out of this, we will probably end up with a better plan to
deal with those types of emergencies.
Item #15F
Page 79
March 23, 1999
COMMISSIONER MAC'KIE REGARDING COMMUNICATION COMMITTEES WITH THE
CONSTITUTIONAL OFFICERS AND MANAGEMENT OF THE CITIES
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: My only communication item, Mr, Fernandez,
is that I'm still looking for that agenda item for creating the
communication committees with the constitutional officers and the
mayors of the city so that we could get that started,
MR. FERNANDEZ: I've asked to staff to work on that, and I'll
bring it forward as soon as we can do it.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: Okay. Does anybody --
Item #15G
COMMISSIONER CARTER RE PAY PLAN
COMMISSIONER CARTER: One interesting thing out of a meeting
that I attended this week of a group of presidents, there was a
presentation of how to attract and keep your employees.
The report that was given to us is that the overall pay increase
in Collier County last year, taking all -- I don't know about the
government sector but private sector, was 10 percent. So I think
that reiterates again what a competitive market that we're in.
And the other thing they pointed out, we're at zero unemployment
here, when you look at the statistics,
So looking at policy direction that we're giving, going back to
our three and a half percent versus the four and a half that was
asked by the county administrator, I know we're in budget process,
but we must keep in mind that we're in a highly competitive market
and that we're going to have to work double time, I think, to keep
our best employees and make sure that we have a pay plan maintenance
program, incentive program, that keeps them here,
COMMISSIONER CONSTANTINE: I agree. I think some of those
numbers are skewed a little bit. The building industry costs are
actually up 40 percent in the last couple of years, so I'm sure that
drags that number up to 10 percent some, But you're right, I mean,
there's literally zero unemployment.
COMMISSIONER CARTER: And we're just need to be aware of
that.
CHAIRWOMAN MAC'KIE: I appreciate that,
Anything further from the board? If not, we're adjourned.

RESOLUTION NO. 99-..1l.O-
A RESOLUTION OF COLLIER COUNTY,
FLORIDA, OPPOSING ENACTMENT INTO LAW
OF PROPOSED FLORIDA HOUSE BILL NUMBER
0925 AND PROPOSED FLORIDA SENATE BILL
NUMBER 1352, TO INCLUDE SENATE
COMMITTEE SUBSTITUTE BILL WITH
AMENDMENT, ADOPTED MARCH 17, 1999,
WHICH BILLS INTEND TO ARBITRARILY
REQUIRE THAT CUSTOMERS OF MANY
INVESTOR OWNED WATER AND WASTEWATER
UTILITIES WILL HAVE TO PAY COSTS OF
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS THAT SHOULD BE
PAID FOR BY THE UTILITY'S FUTURE
CUSTOMERS, AND WHICH BILLS WILL OVER
TIME REQUIRE THAT UTILITY CUSTOMERS
MUST PAY FOR MANY GOVERNMENTAL AND
PERMITTING COMPLIANCE COSTS THAT
SHOULD BE CHARGED TO THE UTILITY'S
STOCKHOLDERS OR FUTURE CUSTOMERS.
WHEREAS, House Bill Number 0925 (HB 0925) and Senate Bill Number 1352
(SB 1352), with Senate Committee Substitute Bill and amendment adopted on March 17,
1999, have been proposed recently for enactment into law by action of the Florida
Legislature; and
WHEREAS, proposed HB 0925 and SB 1352, with Senate Committee Substitute
Bill and amendment, apply to the Florida Public Service Commission and to all Florida
counties that now regulate, or hereafter will regulate, the rates of investor owned water
and wastewater utilities; and
WHEREAS, a primary purpose of proposed HB 0925 and SB 1352, with Senate
Committee Substitute Bill and amendment, is to have "considered" for inclusion into a
utility's rate base as "used and useful in the public service" utility property, including
land acquired or facilities constructed or to be constructed if such property is needed to
serve customers five (5) years after the expected date of the fmal order issued in the
respective rate increase application proceeding; and
WHEREAS, another primary purpose of proposed HB 0925 and SB 1352, with
Senate Committee Substitute Bill and amendment, is to charge the utility's customers the
full amount of "environmental compliance costs" which costs include, but are not limited
to, all reasonable expenses and fair return on any prudent investment incurred by the
utility in complying with the requirements or conditions contained in any permitting,
MAR 2 3 1999
enforcement, or similar decisions of any federal, state, or local governmental agency with
environmental compliance jurisdiction; and
WHEREAS, proposed HB 0925 and SB 1352, with Senate Committee Substitute
Bill and amendment, unnecessarily and arbitrarily restricts each county's now existing
discretion to consider the merits of approving or disapproving the utility's appropriate
''margin reserve" and in determining what "compliance costs" should be paid by the
utility's current customers and which should be charged to the utility's stockholders or
future customers.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS OF COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA, that:
1. The Board of County Commissioners of Collier County, Florida opposes
passage of proposed HB 0925 and SB 1352, with Senate Committee
Substitute Bill and amendment adopted March 17, 1999.
2. The Board of County Commissioners of Collier County, Florida, requests that
its local Legislative Delegation actively oppose enactment into law of
proposed HB 0925 and SB 1352, with Senate Committee Substitute Bill and
amendment adopted March 17, 1999.
3. The Florida Association of Counties may utilize this Resolution as it deems
appropriate to oppose enactment into law of proposed HB 0925, SB 1352 with
Senate Committee Substitute Bill and amendment adopted March 17, 1999,
and any substantially similar House and Senate bills.

SUPPLEMENT NO.7 TO
SCHEDULE A
SCOPE OF SERVICES
HMA FILE NO. 1993134
This serves as a supplement and clarification of Schedule A, Scope of Services as provided in the
Professional Services Agreement dated March 15, 1994.
This project amendment consists of that work that is necessary to evaluate the South Water
Reclamation Facility for the potential of handling higher flows than currently permitted and to
apply for a rerating of the facility by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection
(FDEP), including design of any modifications to the facility required in order to obtain this
rerating.
The scope of services is described as follows:
PHASE II-A WWTP Design
A.2 Design Report
CONSUL T ANT will perform an evaluation of the recently upgraded South Water Reclamation
Facility in order to assess the potential for expansion of the treatment capacity of the facility in
excess of that which is currently permitted by FDEP. In particular, the maximum hydraulic
capacity of the facility and the ability to handle peak organic loadings will be investigated,
The current permitted capacity of the facility is 8 million gallons per day (MGD), The
associated peak hour hydraulic capacity is 18 MOD. A review of plant flow records will be
performed in order to confirm or revise the necessary peak hour hydraulic capacity of the plant,
In addition, the need to handle peak instantaneous flows greater than 18 MOD will be
investigated.
Each treatment process will be evaluated in order to determine the maximum capacity for
treatment of both peak flows as well as sustained flows. In addition, the peak capacity of the
piping that interconnects each treatment process will be evaluated. In this manner, the areas of
the existing facility that have the smallest capacity will be determined, as well as determination
of the capacity of each individual unit, This information will then be used to determine the
maximum capacity that the facility can sustain in an "as is" configuration, Corrective actions
and operational enhancement improvements that can be implemented prior to the next peak
season period (no later than January 2000) will be identified. Following identification of these
immediate improvements, a Design Report review meeting will be conducted to recommend
immediate actions. Alternative methods of procuring fast-track construction services will be
discussed.
\\HMA_NAPLES\WP\l993\1993134\RERA TING\SCOPE OF SERVS,DOC
-1-
MAR 2 3 1999
Following identification of the immediate improvements, the potential for expansion of the
capacity of the SCWRF will be further investigated, Those improvements that would be
necessary for each 1 MGD in additional capacity will be identified (for average daily flow rates
ranging from 8 MGD to 16 MGD) including appropriate peak flow factors. A second Design
Report review meeting will be conducted to identify those improvements that will need to be
implemented in a phased manner over the next five years as well as those that will need to be
implemented over the next ten to fifteen years. The findings of this evaluation will serve as a
master plan for future growth and expansion of the SCWRF.
Following completion of the tasks outlined above, a report will be prepared outlining the
findings of this investigation including preliminary opinions of probable construction cost and
annual O&M costs and a proposed implementation schedule for each improvement identified.
CONSUL T ANT will furnish five (5) copies of the preliminary draft Design Report and conduct
a meeting with OWNER to present the preliminary draft Design Report for OWNER's review
and approval. Comments from the OWNER will be incorporated into a final Design Report and
CONSULTANT will furnish five (5) copies of the final Design Report.
PHASE I
Preliminary Services
AI.4 Capacity Analysis Report
CONSUL T ANT will prepare a Capacity Analysis Report for the South County Water
Reclamation Facility service area meeting FDEP regulations. CONSUL T ANT will furnish five
(5) copies of the preliminary draft Capacity Analysis Report and conduct a meeting with
OWNER to present the preliminary draft Capacity Analysis Report for OWNER's review and
approval. Comments from the OWNER will be incorporated into a final Capacity Analysis
Report and CONSULTANT will furnish five (5) copies of the final Capacity Analysis Report.
The OWNER will submit this report to FDEP.
ADDITIONAL SERVICES
Reuse Master Plan
At the time that application is made to FDEP for a new permit for the South County Water
Reclamation Facility an updated Reuse Master Plan will need to be submitted. CONSUL T ANT
will prepare an update to the Reuse Master Plan to include current planned improvements as well
as any deemed necessary to meet the needs resulting from expansion of the capacity of the South
County Water Reclamation Facility, CONSUL T ANT will furnish five (5) copies of the
preliminary draft Update to the Reuse Master Plan Report and conduct a meeting with OWNER
to present the preliminary draft report for OWNER's review and approval. Comments from the
OWNER will be incorporated into a final report and CONSULTANT will furnish five (5) copies
of the final report. The OWNER will submit this report to FDEP.

ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION
Who Is Eligible
You are eligible to participate in this plan if you are a regular, full time employee
of Collier County Government for at least 60 consecutive days and are regularly
scheduled to work a minimum of 30 hours per week. You are also eligible to
participate in this plan if you are a qualifying retiree of Collier County
Government. Qualifying retirees must meet the requirements of Florida Statute
112.0801. Eligibility for Medicaid or the receipt of Medicaid benefits will not
be taken into account in determining eligibility.
Your eligible dependents may also participate. Eligible dependents include:
your lawful spouse as defined by applicable state law; natural children;
stepchildren; children who, before reaching the age of 18, are either adopted by
you or placed in your home for adoption; dependent grandchildren from birth up
to 18 months of age if the mother or father of the newborn is an eligible
dependent; children for whom you are legal guardian; and foster children. A
dependent child must be unmarried and rely on you for primary support and
maintenance. Dependent children remain eligible until age 25.
You may not participate in this plan as an employee and as a dependent, and
your dependents may not participate in this plan as a dependent of more than one

If your employer determines that your separated or divorced spouse or any state
child support or Medicaid agency has obtained a legal qualified medical child
support order (QMCSO), and your current plan offers dependent coverage, you
will be required to provide coverage for any child(ren) named in the QMCSO. If
a QMCSO requires that you provide health coverage for your child(ren) and you
do not enroll the child(ren), your employer must enroll the child(ren) upon
application from your separated/divorced spouse, the state child support agency
or Medicaid agency and withhold from your pay your share of the cost of such
coverage. You may not drop coverage for the child(ren) unless you submit
written evidence to your employer that the child support order is no longer in
effect. The plan may make benefit payments for the child(ren) covered by a
QMCSO directly to the custodial parent or legal guardian of such child(ren).

to continue beyond 31 days, you must notify your employer of the birth and p ay
any required contribution. If notification and contribution are not made,
coverage will terminate at the end of 31 days following your child's birth. Your
claim for maternity expenses is not considered as notification to your employer

qualify for coverage in all aspects other than age. The plan may require you at
any time to obtain a physician's statement certifying the physical or mental
handicap.
Coverage continued under the following provision is in addition to coverage
continued under Optional Continuation of Coverage (COBRA):

in the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993), eligibility may continue for the
duration of the leave if you pay any required contributions toward the cost of
the coverage. Your employer has the responsibility to provide you with prior
written notice of the terms and conditions under which payment must be
made. Failure to make payment within 30 days of the due date established by
your employer will result in the termination of coverage. Subject to cert$
exceptions, if you fail to return to work after the leave of absence, your
employer has the right to recover from you any contributions toward the cost
of coverage made on your behalf during the leave as outlined in the FMLA.
Coverage continued under the following provision runs concurrently with
coverage continued under Optional Continuation of Coverage (COBRA):
/""--
/
MAR 2 3 1999
If you were covered under this plan immediately prior to being called to active
duty by any of the armed forces of the United States of America, coverage may
continue for up to 18 months or the period of uniformed service leave, whichever
is shortest, if you pay any required contributions towards the cost of the
coverage during the leave. If the leave is less than 30 days, the contribution rate
will be the same as for active employees. If the leave is longer than 30 days, the
required contribution will not exceed 102% of the cost of coverage.
Reinstatement Of Coverage
If coverage is terminated for failure to make payments while you are on an
approved family or medical leave of absence (as defined in the Family Medical
Leave Act of 1993), coverage of you and your eligible dependents will be
automatically reinstated, without providing evidence of good health, on the date
you return to active employment if you and your dependents are otherwise
eligible under the plan. The pre-existing condition limitation and any waiting
periods will not apply. However, all accmnulated annual and lifetime maximums
will apply.
Whether or not you elect continuation coverage under the Uniformed Services
Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, coverage will be reinstated, without
providing evidence of good health, on the first day you return to active
employment with Collier County Government if you are released under
honorable conditions and you return to employment: on the first full business day
following completion of your military service for a leave of 30 days or less;
within 14 days of completing your military service for a leave of 31 to 180 days;
or within 90 days of completing your military service for a leave of more than
180 days (a reasonable amount of travel time or recovery time for an illness or
injury determined by the VA to be service connected will be allowed). When
coverage under this plan is reinstated, all provisions and limitations of this plan
will apply to the extent that they would have applied if you had not taken military
leave and your coverage had been continuous under this plan. The eligibility
waiting period will be waived and the pre-existing condition limitation will be
credited as if you had been continuously covered under this plan from your
original effective date. (This waiver of limitations does not provide coverage for
any illness or injury caused or aggravated by your military service, as
determined by the VA. For complete information regarding your rights under the
Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, contact your
employer.)

HEALTH CARE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
What is Health Care Management
Collier County Government desires to provide you and your family with a health
care benefit plan that financially protects you from significant health care
expenses and assures you of quality care. While part of increasing health care
costs results from new technology and important medical advances, another
significant cause is the way health care services are used.
Some studies indicate that a high percentage of the cost of health care services
maybe unnecessary. For example, hospital stays can be longer than necessary.
Some hospitalizations may be entirely avoidable, such as, when surgery could be
performed at an outpatient facility with equal quality and safety. Also, surgery is
sometimes performed when other treatment could be more effective. All of these
instances increase costs for you and Collier County Government.
Collier County Government has contracted with a professional health care
management company to assist you in detennining whether or not proposed
services are appropriate for reimbursement under the plan. The program is not
intended to diagnose or treat medical conditions, guarantee benefits or validate
eligibility. The medical professionals who conduct the program focus their
review on the appropriateness of hospital stays and proposed surgical
procedures.
Required Admission Review
You are required to call the health care management program's toll-free nwnber
(800) 782-4957 before any elective admission to a hospital. You must also call
within 48 hours (2 working days) of any emergency admission. When you call,
it will be necessary to provide the program with your name, the patient's name,
the name of the physician and hospital, the reason for the hospitalization and
any other information needed to complete the review.
~
,2::'
MAR 2 3 1999 .
Reduced Benefits For Failure to Follow Required Review Procedures
When the required review procedures are followed, your benefits will be
unaffected, and you and the plan avoid expenses related to unnecessary health
care. However, if you do not follow the health care management procedures
outlined above, the plan's co-payment will be reduced to 50% for all related
covered hospital expenses, after any applicable deductible.
The penalty assessed when you do not follow the procedures required by the
health care management program does not apply to your out-of-pocket
maxunum.
Special Care Case Management
Special care case management is designed to help manage the care of patients
who have special or extended care illnesses or injuries.
The primary objective of special care case management is to identify and
coordinate cost-effective medical care alternatives meeting accepted standards of
medical practice. Special care case management also monitors the care of the
patient, offers emotional support to the family, and coordinates communications
among health care providers, patients and others.
Benefits may be modified by the plan administrator to permit a method of
treatment not expressly provided for, but not prohibited by law, rules or public
policy, if the plan administrator determines that such modification is medically
necessary and is more cost-effective than continuing a benefit to which you or
your eligible dependents may otherwise be entitled. The plan administrator also
reserves the right to limit payment for services to those amounts which would
have been charged had the service been provided in the most cost-effective
setting in which the service could safely have been provided.
Examples of illnesses or injuries that may be appropriate for special care case
management include, but are not limited to:
. Terminal Illnesses
cancer
AIDS

PREFERRED PROVIDER ORGANIZATION (PPO\
What is a PPO
A Preferred Provider organization (PPO) is a group of physicians and hospitals
contracted with your employer in an effort to reduce the effect of rising health
care costs while providing you with quality care.
. Who is Your PPO
Collier County Government has contracted with SunHealth to provide PPO
services for you and your eligible dependents.
About Your PPO
.,
SunHealth has carefully selected the participating physicians and hospitals. The
qualifications of each health care provider have been reviewed so that you and
your dependents will be provided quality care at a fee significantly less than is
common in the geographic area in which you live.
The final choice of health care providers is yours. However, if you receive
services from a health care provider included in the PPO, the cost of the co-
payment to you may decrease.
The PPO benefits are outlined on the Scheduled of Medical Benefits. All PPO
and non-PPO plan maximums are combined.

MEDICAL BENEFITS
About Your Medical Benefits
All benefits provided under this plan must satisfy some basic conditions. The
following conditions are commonly included in health benefit plans but are often
overlooked or misunderstood.
Medical necessity

medically necessary for the treatment of a covered illness or injury. Also,
the treatment must not be experimental/investigational.
Usual And Customary Charges
The plan provides benefits only for covered expenses that are equal to or
less than the usual and customary charge in the geographic area where
services or supplies are provided. Any amounts that exceed the usual and
customary charge are not recognized by the plan for any purpose.
Health Care Providers
The plan provides benefits only for covered services and supplies rendered
by a physician, practitioner, nurse, hospital or specialized treatment
facility as those terms are specifically defined in the Definitions section.
Custodial Care
The plan does not provide benefits for services and supplies that are
furnished primarily to assist an individual ill the activities of daily living.
Activities of daily living include such things as bathing, feeding,
administration of oral medicines, or other services that can be provided by
persons without the training of a health care provider.
It
MAR 2 3 1999
Benefit year
The word year, as used in this document, refers to the benefit year which
is the 12-month period beginning January 1 and ending December 31. All
annual benefit maximums and deductibles accumulate during the benefit
year.
Deductibles
A deductible is the amount of covered expenses each covered individual must
pay during each year before the plan will consider expenses for reimbursement.
The individual deductible applies separately to each covered person. The family
deductible applies collectively to all covered persons in the same family. When
the family deductible is satisfied, no further deductible will be applied for any
covered family member during the remainder of that year.
The annual individual and family deductible amounts are shown on the Schedule
of Medical Benefits.
Co-Payments
Co-payment percentages represent the portions of covered expenses paid by you
and by the plan after satisfaction of any applicable deductible. These
percentages apply only to covered expenses which do not exceed usual and
customary charges . You are responsible for all non-covered expenses and any
amount which exceeds the usual and customary charge for covered expenses.
The co-payment percentages are shown on the Schedule of Medical Benefits.
Out-Of-Pocket Maximums
An out-of-pocket maximum is the maximum amount of covered expenses you
must pay during a year, excluding the deductible, before the co-payment
percentage of the plan increases. The individual out-of-pocket maximum applies
separately to each covered person. When a covered person reaches the annual
out-of-pocket maximum, the plan will pay 100% of additional covered expenses
for that individual during the remainder of that year.
II
MAR 2 3 1999
The family out-of-pocket maximum applies collectively to all covered persons in
the same family. When the annual family out-of-pocket maximum is reached, the
plan will pay 100% of covered expenses for any covered family member during
the remainder of that year.
However, expenses for services which do not apply to the out-of-pocket
maximum will never be paid at 100%.
The annual individual and family out-of-pocket maximum amounts are shown on
the Schedule of Medical Benefits.
Benefit Maximums
Total plan payments for each covered person are limited to certain maximum
benefit amounts. A benefit maximum can apply to specific benefit categories or
to all benefits. A benefit maximum amount also applies to a specific time period,
such as annual or lifetime. Whenever the word lifetime appears in this plan in
reference to benefit maximums, it refers to the period of time you or your eligible
dependents participate in this plan or any other Plan Sponsored by Collier
County Board of County Commissioners.
The benefit maximums applicable to this plan are shown on the Schedule of Medical Benefits.

PRESCRIPTION DRUG PLAN
About Your Prescription Drug Benefit
The prescription drug benefit is an independent program separate from your
regular medical plan, and administered by ConsulTec. This provision is included
for descriptive purposes only. You must refer to the actual provision in the
literature prepared and distributed by ConsulTec for a complete description of
covered and not covered expenses.
The ConsulTec plan provides benefits only for drugs or medicines prescribed by
a physician or practioner, but not to exceed a 3D-day supply or 100 unit doses,
whichever is greater.
The prescription drug benefit cannot be assigned regardless of the assignment
provision in Other Important Plan Provisions.
Participating Pharmacy
The ConsulTec plan provides benefits only for a participating pharmacy's
wholesale cost plus dispensing fee. A participating pharmacy is a pharmacy
which has entered into a prescription drug plan agreement with ConsulTec.
Non-participating Pharmacy
The ConsulTec plan provides benefits only for covered expenses that are
equal to or less than the usual and customary charge of a participating
pharmacy.
Prescription Drug Co-Payments
A prescription drug co-payment is the amount of covered expenses you must pay
for each prescription before the ConsulTec plan will make payments. The
ConsulTec co-payment does not accumulate toward any other plan deductible or
out-of-pocket maximum.
The co-payment amount for the ConsulTec plan is $5 for each genenc
prescription or refill and $10 for each brand-name prescription or refill.

MAIL SERVICE PRESCRIPTION DRUG PROGRAM
The mail service prescription drug program is offered when there is an ongoing
need for medication. By using this service, you can obtain prescribed medication
required on a non-emergency, extended-use basis. The quantity of a prescribed
drug ordered through this program can be anything up to a-day supply.
Prescription drugs obtained through this program are not subject to the medical
plan deductible. However, you are required to pay $5 for each generic
prescription of refill and $10 for each brand-name prescription or refill. The
amount you must pay for each mailorder prescription does not accumulate
toward the medical plan deductible or out-of-pocket maximum
u _u - - Prescribed medications which are covered by your medical plan are also covered
by the mail service prescription drug program if they are normally available at
your local pharmacy. However, certain medications cannot be supplied by mail
easily (for example, drugs requiring constant refrigeration) and are not available
through this program.
The law requires that pharmacies dispense the exact quantity prescribed by the
physician or practitioner. So if your physician or practitioner authorizes the
maximum order quantity, the prescription must be for a-day supply for you to
receive that quantity. For example, if you take one tablet per day, your physician
or practitioner must write a prescription for tablets. If you take two tablets per
day, your physician or practitioner must write a prescription for tablets, etc. If
your physician or practitioner authorizes refills, these can be dispensed only
when your initial order is nearly exhausted, so be sure to ask your physician or
practitioner to prescribe the normal supply, plus refills whenever appropriate.
When you order by mail, your prescription is reviewed by a pharmacist, checked
for drug interactions, dispensed and verified by quality control before it is mailed
to you.
There will be times when you need a prescription immediately. On these
occasions, you should have your prescription filled at a local pharmacy and use
your ConsulTec card. If you need medication immediately but will be taking it
on an ongoing basis, ask your physician or practitioner for two prescriptions.
The first should be for a 14-day supply that you can have filled at a local

pharmacy; the second prescription should be for the balance, up to a-day supply.
Send the larger prescription with your co-payment through the Express Pharmacy
mail service prescription drug program.
NOTE: Certain controlled substances and several other prescribed medications
may be subject to other dispensing limitations and to the professional judgment
of the pharmacist.

General Provision
When you and/or your dependents are covered under more than one group health
plan, the combined benefits payable by this plan and all other group plans will
not exceed 100% of the eligible expense incurred by the individual. The plan

provisions, the balance of remaining eligible expenses, not to exceed normal plan
liability if this plan had been primary.
For purposes of coordination, eligible expense means any usual and customary
charge considered in part or full by this plan.
Government Programs
The term group health plan includes the government programs Medicare,
Medicaid and CHAMPUS. The regulations governing these programs take
precedence over the detennination of this plan. For example, in determining the
benefits payable under the plan, the plan will not take into account the fact that
you or any eligible dependent(s) are eligible for or receive benefits under a
Medicaid plan.

required by any no-fault automobile insurance statute, whether or not a no-fault
policy is in effect, and/or any other automobile insurance.

covering the same person as a dependent, a retiree or a laid-off individual.
When a person is an active employee under more than one plan, the plan
covering the individual for a longer period of time will be considered primary.
The plan covering a person as an employee or a dependent will be primary over
the plan providing continuation coverage (COBRA).
A plan covering a person as a dependent child of non-divorced or non-separated
parents will be primary according to which parent has the earlier birth date
(month and day) in the year. If both parents have the same birth date, the plan
covering the child for the longer period of time will be primary.
Children of Divorced Or Separated Parents
When all plans covering a person as a dependent child of divorced or separated
parents contain a coordination of benefits provision, the order of payment will
be:
The plan covering the dependent child of the natural parent designated by
court order to be responsible for the child's health care expenses will be
considered primary.
In the absence of a court order specifying otherwise, the plan covering the
dependent child of a stepparent who is the spouse of the natural parent
having legal custody of the child will be considered primary.
Right to Make Payments To Other Organizations
Whenever payments which should have been made by this plan have been made
by any other planes), this plan has the right to pay the other planes) any amount
necessary to satisfy the terms of this coordination of benefits provision.

Continuation of Coverage Under Federal Law
As mandated by federal law, the plan offers optional continuation coverage to
you and/or your dependents if coverage of the eligible beneficiary would

. Termination of your employment for any reason except gross
misconduct. Coverage may continue for you and your eligible
dependents.
. A reduction in hours worked by you. Coverage may continue for you
and your eligible dependents.
. Your death. Coverage may continue for your eligible dependents.
. Divorce or legal separation from your spouse. Coverage may continue

. You become entitled to Medicare. Coverage may continue for eligible
dependents who are not entitled to Medicare.
. Loss of eligibility of a covered dependent child. Coverage may
continue for that dependent.
. Your employer files a Title 11 bankruptcy petition. Coverage may
continue for retirees and their beneficiaries if the plan covers such
retirees and beneficiaries within one year of the date of the bankruptcy
petition and if such retiree coverage ends or is substantially reduced
within one year before or after the filing for bankruptcy. (please note
that the plan may not cover retirees, in which case employer
bankruptcy is not a qualifying event.)
NOTE: To choose this continuation coverage, an individual must be a
covered person Wider the plan on the day before the qualifying event or be
born to or adopted by you during the period of your continuation

coverage. In the case of bankruptcy, an individual must have retired on or
before the date coverage was substantially reduced, or be a beneficiary of
the retired employee on the day before the bankruptcy.
Notification Requirement
You or other qualifying individual(s) have the responsibility to inform the plan
administrator of a divorce, legal separation or a child losing dependent status
under the Collier County Government Group Benefit Plan within 60 days of the
qualifying event. Failure to provide this notification within 60 days will result in
the loss of continuation coverage rights.
Your employer has the responsibility of notifying the plan administrator of your
death, termination of employment, reduction in hours, entitlement to Medicare or
the employer's bankruptcy within 30 days of the qualifying event.
The plan will notify you and other qualifying individual( s) of continuation
coverage rights within 14 days of the notice described above. You and any other
qualifying individuals will then have 60 days to elect continuation coverage.
Failure to elect continuation coverage within 60 days after being notified by the
plan administrator will result in loss of continuation coverage rights.
Maximum Period Of Continuation Coverage
The maximum period of continuation coverage for individuals who qualify due to
termination of employment or reduction in hours worked is 18 months from the
date of the qualifying event.
If a qualifying individual is disabled (as determined under the Social Security
Act) at the time of your termination or reduction in hours or becomes disabled at
any time during the first 60 days of continuation coverage, continuation coverage
for the qualifying individual and any non-disabled family members who are also
entitled to continuation coverage may be extended to 29 months provided the
qualifying individual or family member, if applicable, notifies the plan
administrator within the 18-month continuation coverage period and within 60
days after receiving notification of disability.

The maximum period of continuation coverage for individuals who qualify due to
any other described qualifying event, except bankruptcy, is 36 months from the
date of the qualifying event.
The maximum period of continuation coverage for individuals who qualify due to
any other described qualifying event, except bankruptcy, is 36 months from the
date of the qualifying event.
Qualifying retirees and widows or widowers of retirees who died before
bankruptcy are entitled to lifetime continuation coverage. However, if a retiree
dies after bankruptcy, the surviving spouse and dependent children may only
elect an additional 36 months of continuation coverage after the death.
If an individual experiences more than one qualifying event, the maximum period
of coverage will be computed from the date of the earliest qualifying event, but
will be extended to the full 36 months if required by the subsequent qualifying
event.
However, if your spouse and dependent children would otherwise lose coverage
because of a qualifying event, they will be entitled to 36 months of continuation
coverage from the date you become entitled to Medicare even if your entitlement
to Medicare does not cause you to lose coverage either because you are still
employed or because you had already terminated employment.
Cost of Continuation Coverage
The cost of continuation coverage is determined by your employer and paid by
the qualifying individual. If the qualifying individual is not disabled, the
applicable premium cannot exceed 102% of the plan's cost of providing
coverage. The cost of coverage during a period of extended continuation
coverage due to a disability cannot exceed 150% of the plan's cost of coverage.
You and other qualified individual( s) must make the first payment within 45 days
of notifying the plan of selection of continuation coverage. Future payments can
be made in monthly installments within 30 days of the due date unless your
employer establishes a longer payment schedule. Rates and payment schedules
are established by your employer and may change when necessary due to plan
modifications.

MAR 2 3 1999
The cost of continuation coverage is computed from the date coverage would
normally end due to the qualifying event.
Failure to make the first payment within 45 days or any subsequent payment
within 30 days of the established due date will result in the permanent
cancellation of continuation coverage.
