DISCUSSION TO TAX~ PLACE AT 5:05 P.M. MEETING OF JUNE 29, 1993
Public Services Administrator Olltff recalled that this 1rem was
previously discussed last week, and he pointed out that one issue
needs to be resolved today; that being the concession fee which was
increased from 10% to 18% to be reviewed by the AUO for approval.
Joseph McMackin, attorney for the AUO, advised that the concession
is a cost to the AUO that they cannot afford. He recalled that the
Board requested two changes; a reduction in term to 5 years with a 5
year re-negotiated renewal and an increase in the premium from 10% to
18%, noting that the AUO will agree to the shortening of the term, but
cannot afford to pay the extra 8%.
Commissioner Saunders disclosed that the next step is to decide
what type of facility is desired, especially during the off season,
noting that Staff is making a recommendation to take over the tram
operations.
Commissioner Volpe admitted that the County has an obligation to
provide Utilities to Clam Pass, and inquired whether it would be
possible to phase in the 18% fee over a period of time until the uti-
littes are brought in.
Mr. McMackin replied that that suggestion has been discussed and
phasing in would become too complicated.
Commissioner Volpe expressed his disappo~ntment at having to reach
this point, noting the direct benefit to the Registry Hotel, but also
mentioning that no less that 65~ of the patrons are County residents.
Commissioner Volpe asked what the cost of underwriting th~s facility
would cost the County?
Public Services Administrator Olliff replied that the total cost
would be approximately $125,000.00.
Commissioner Constantine requested a quick review of the d~f-
Page 9
June 29, 1993
ference between entering the agreement versus the cost of the County
operating the facility itself.
Mr. Olliff answered that the cost to the County would be
$14,000.00, the cost for the tram service alone i~ between $90,000.00
and $100,000.00.
In response to Commissioner Saunders, Mr. Olliff replied that
there were 240,000 tram riders annually.
Commissioner Saunders requested an analysis of what the legal
responsibilities are in reference to the operations, also if the
County does not have a concession with the hotel and does not operate
a tram system, would the hotel have any rights to operate a tram
system for the exclusive use of /ts' guests.
Commissioner Volpe strongly expressed his opinion that this faci-
lity cannot operate without the tram service.
Assistant County Attorney We/gel announced that the boardwalk is
owned by the County and any type of vehicular devices placed on the
boardwalk are subject to the rules and regulations of the County.
Com~inionar Volpe suggested spproval of the ne~otiatsd concsssion
a~ree~ent with the AUO, with a 5 year contract with the negotiated
aumount of 18~ for the concession fee.
Commissioner Matthews suggested imposing a .50¢ fee on the tram
ride, so that it would pay for itself and the Registry would be
contributing $42,000.00.
C~Ant~ner Volpe ~oved to approve the concession m~Tee~ent with
a 10~ c~'e~s~on fee, but a 5 year term.
Commissioner Saunders offered the possibility of a parking fee.
Commissioner Constantine expressed his concern of the suggestion;
stating that he would rather see the burden placed on the hotel rather
than the taxpayers.
Mr. Olliff remarked that when the parking fees were lifted in the
past, all the county beaches doubled their usage.
Referring to the proposed 5 year agreement, Commissioner Saunders
asked what facilities are required to be in place by the AUO?
Page 10
June 29, 1993
Mr. McMackin replied that the commercial kitchen equipment is
required, and he does not have cost of the equipment.
Commissioner Saunders suggested a ! year agreement with a 10% con-
cession fee, without the requirement of the additional kitchen
equipment.
Commissioner Volpe suggested a 1 year renewable agreement
without the required kitchen equipment until such time that the County
could provide utilities.
Mr. McMacktn stated that he would be agreeable to a 2 year
agreement.
~Aeeloner Volpe moved to approve a 10% concession fee, with the
obligation of the AUO to provide kitchen equlpnent only when the
Connt~ providee utilities, and to extend the current a~ree~ent for two
A discussion was held on the obligations of the commercial kitchen
equipment under the original agreement.
Commissioner maunders revealed the need to provide a short term
extension of the agreement.
Commissioner Norris mentioned that once the utilities are
supplied, concession bids could be reviewed, adding that he does not
feel prepared to enter into a long term agreement.
Commissioner Saunders proposed a ! year agreement with a con-
cession fee of lOX, to give the Board the opportunity to determine
what type of facilities are desired.
Commissioner Volpe asked if in this ! year period, there would be
any obligation to install any t~e of commercial kitchen equipment?
Commissioner Saunders related that he has no objection to holding
that obligation in abeyance.
Commissioner Matthews suggested a 1 year agreement with a ! year
option to re-negotiate.

Peter Kiem, Manager of AUO, specified that his Board voted to have
the agreement that was presented on June 22, 1993, resubmitted to the
Board of County Commissioners stating that no extension of the current
agreement would be entertained and the terms and conditions of the
agreement would be acceptable to the Board of Directors of the AUO.
He said that he could speak to individual members of the Board of
Directors of the AUO today to discuss the proposed revised agreement
but such an agreement would require the approval of the Board of
Directors. He agreed to recommend the acceptance of the proposed
agreement.
Commissioner Saunders suggested continuing this discussion at the
special meeting that will be held tonight.
Mr. Kiem confirmed that he would get direction to continue this
discussion from the Chairman of the Board some time today.
Commissioner Norris emconded the ~otton on the floor.
Commissioner Saunders suggested that pending the approval of the
motion, Mr. K/em attend this evening's meeting to continue this
discussion.

Public Services Administrator Olliff stated that the current in-
home personal care contract expires on June 30, 1993 and Board appro-
val is being sought for new contracts in order to continue the
services to the elderly.
Mr. Olliff explained that tn-home personal care for the area
elderly is provided through the Social Services Department, using
contracted services. He noted that two firms responded to the
County's most recent annual RFP and were recommended for contracts,
however, it has since been determined that one of the firms does not
have the necessary license to operate in the State of Florida.
Mr. Olliff advised that staff is recommending that the contract
award with L~feltne Homecare, Inc. be rescinded and that the full
contract be awarded to Interlm Healthcare.

to assessment rolls for Pine Ridge Industrial Park M.S.T.U. and the
Naples Production Park M.S.T.U.
Mr. Conrecode announced that there have been changes to the reso-
lutions based on changes in the unit cost for the assessments. He
requested that the Commission conduct the two public hearings on July
27, ~993, at the Regular Meeting.

& LYBRAND - ~
Commissioner Norris stated that Coopers & Lybrand have worked very
hard to present the County with a packet of services at a very reaso-
nable cost.
Ms. Phyllis Jones, of Coopers & Lybrand, presented a proposal with
regard to a performance review of the Utilities Division. She
explained that her firm has spent one day talking with various manage-
ment staff from Utilities in addition to performing diagnostic reviews
of this Division.
Ms. Jones revealed that there are substantial cost savings/cost
efficiency opportunities In the Utilities Division which could be very
beneficial to the County.
Commissioner Constantine questioned the anticipated amount of time
that Coopers & Lybrand would spend in the Utilities Division to per-
form the review. Ms. Jones replied that approximately 5-6 weeks would
be required in order to complete all four diagnostic reviews.
Utilities Administrator Arnold advised that he has had discussions
with Ms. Jones and her staff with regard to potential savings to the
County. He indicated that he believes a performance review would be a
very effective exercise, and noted that a fresh outlook from the out-
side would be very welcomed.
Commissioner Saunders called attention to the proposal and noted
that one of the tasks is in reference to customer service and billing
procedures. He questioned whether staff would be able to evaluate
this area by talking with other utilities administrators in other
parts of the state and other areas of the country to determine ways to
improve billing procedures without having to rely on outside con-
sultants. Mr. Arnold stated that staff does communicate with sister
utilities, primarily within the State of Florida. In addition, he
indicated that the County's Quality Plus program has an active team
Page 17
June 29, 1993
looking at the customer service aspects of the Utilities Division.
Ms. Jones remarked that there are six billing clerks within the
Utilities Division and they are doing a lot of busy work, however,
much of this work is dealing with incoming telephone calls relating to
problems. She suggested that perhaps those efforts could be put
elsewhere where people are needed to do things versus doing trouble
shooting.
Commissioner Saunders revealed that he does not believe that an
outside consultant needs to advise the county that the quicker it gets
its bills out, the quicker it will be earning interest on its money.
Commissioner Constantine cited that he is in favor of bringing in
an outside objective view since many times things that are obvious to
an outsider are not evident to people involved in a situation day in
and day out.
Commissioner Volpe stated that discussions have been held during
the strategic planning sessions and budget workshops with regard to
utilities billings and improvements that should be made, citing that
he is uncertain as to the extent that Coopers & Lybrand can improve
upon what has already been acknowledged.
Commissioner Matthews remarked that she supports the concept of
having the work done as proposed, by Coopers a Lybrand since this
would provide a new fresh look at the Uti/it/es D/v/sion.
Mr. Brad Estes spoke with regard to this item.
Commissioner Saunders suggested that another review of the
Utilities Division by the Productivity Committee with adequate imple-
mentation by the County Commission and staff would achieve the same
thing as embarking on a $§0,000 contract,
~ ~zTte~ S/2 (0o~tsstoner ¥olpe and Coutssioner Sannderm

Assistant to the County Manager Edwards presented a brief overview
of the County's cable situation and requested authorization to con-
tinue with the administration of the opportunities that are available
through the new Cable Act.
Ms. Edwards stated that the Franchise Advisory Committee will be
utilized to assist tn a study and analysis of the new rules. She
pointed out that the Committee will be reviewing rate regulations and
customer service standards.
Ms. Edwards advised that the effective date for rate regulation
has been delayed from June 21, 1993 to October 1, 1993. She noted
that later in the summer she will be requesting that the Commission
authorize staff to apply to the FCC for certification for rate regula-
tion. She remarked that the County will be required to certify that a
procedure is in place to accept customer comments. She recommended
that staff develop a written-comment procedure with regard to the rate
regulation section.
Ms. Edwards requested that the Board authorize staff to notify the
two local cable operators, advising that the County intends to
establish and enforce customer service standards. She pointed out
that the FCC has developed standards that can be used as a guideline,
however, these can be made more stringent, if desired.
Commissioner Constantine questioned the number of cable television
complaints that have been received, to which Ms. Edwards replied that
staff began receiving complaints in January, 1991, and 95 complaints
have been lodged against both operators.
Ms. Edwards advised that the FCC will regulate rates above the
basic tier if anyone complains, however, if the County does not apply
and receive certification to regulate basic rates, they will not be
regulated.
Commissioner Saunders remarked if there is an opportunity with
respect to the County's Jurisdiction in this regard, a program should
be developed and the community so advised that the County is doing
what is legally possible.

DISCUSSION OF TKE POINT~ MARCO PUD - STAFF DIRECTED NOT TO CONTINUE
WITH THH ~ TO TKE PUD; ~TAFF TO PROCEED WITH SLO~-TAE~
Commissioner Saunders stated that the Board received a memorandum
from County Attorney Cuyler (copy not provided to the Clerk's Office),
stating: "In my opinion the Board of County Commissioners is not
authorized to amend the Points Marco PUD to require that the parking
lot be deeded to the County for the benefit of the general public
rather than to MICA for the benefit of the Marco Island residents
only."
Commissioner Volpe remarked that he understands that the County
Attorney is recommending proceeding with a s/ow-take which was origi-
nally authorized by the Board of County Commissioners and not proceed
any further with the process of the Points Marco PUD amendment.
County Attorney Cu¥1er stated that Commissioner Volpe's
understanding ts correct. He revealed that the Issue of the slow-take
is a policy decision, as to whether the Board desires to acquire the
parking lot. He noted that advantages of the s/ow-take are: the
developer has Indicated that there would be the opportunity to discuss
a possible negotiated settlement; and there ts the ability to know the
price of the property before title is taken and a commitment made
relative to payment of that price.

Manager does not want to go through the negotiation process five dif-
ferent times and desires one assigned person in this regard.
Commissioner Constantine revealed that he will be attending a
meeting on July 14 to discuss the Manager's contract. He remarked
that the Manager has retained counsel, but his counsel may or.may not
be in attendance at that meeting.
Commissioner Constantine stated if the members of the Board have
any particular area of concern, he will be pleased to discuss these
at the July 14th meeting.
Commissioner Matthews indicated that she has questions with regard
to the ordinance establishing the County Manager's office.
Commissioner Constantine explained that this issue will appear on
the County Commission agenda of July 20, 1993.
Commissioner Saunders questioned whether the desire of the Board
is to direct the County Attorney to review the ordinance and bring it
back to the Commission for amendments.
It was the consensus of the Board that the County
contract and amendments to the County Manager's Ordinance will be
discussed at the Regular Co.mission meeting on July 20, 1993.

A~REE~ENT FOR MAIL BALLOT ELECTION SERVICES BETNEEN TH~ CITY OF ~APLES
AND COLLIER COUNTY - APPROVED WITH AMENDMENTS
Commissioner Volpe stated that the Board of County Commissioners
is the owner of the ballot tabulating equipment. He noted that there
is a proposal to lease this equipment to the City of Naples in connec-
tion with the special election scheduled for October 5, 1993. He
explained that the City would make arrangements with various vendors
and provide the support services that would be required to conduct the
special election.
Commissioner Volpe cited concerns w~th regard to the Board of
County Commissioners actually renting the tabulating equipment to the
City of Naples. He revealed that the agreement provides that the
Page 22
June 29, 1993
equipment would be leased to the City for $I.00. He revealed that
Supervisor of Elections Morgan approximates that there will be a cost
of approximately $1,500 - $2,000 per work station. He reported that
the agreement contemplates one work station and a card reader.
Commissioner Volpe advised that it has been brought to his atten-
tion that in the unlikely event of a court challenge to the results of
the October 5th election, there is the possibility that the equipment
which is owned by the County and leased to the City could be
sequestered. He remarked that the County would have to go out and
lease replacement equipment during the pendency of the lawsuit.
Assistant County Attorney Weigel explained that the agreement does
provide for a $26,000 bond or a reserve to be held ~n escrow by the
County in the event of sequestration of the equipment, and the County
would be able to cover the equipment loss during the ~nterim.
Commissioner Volpe remarked that he does not believe the County
should get into the habit of leasing its equipment to the C~ty of
Naples for anything other than a fair and proportionate share of same.
Colltostoner Volpe moved, seconded by Co~mlsaioner Constantine and
c~rried ~m~ntloull¥, to approve the Agreement for the lei1 ballot
election between the City of Naples and Collier County for the elec-
tion to be held on October 5, 1993, w~th the alendaent that con-
aideration be paid to the County for the rental of the Coqnt¥~s Ballot
Tabulation Equll~lent to reflect the City's pro-rata share not-to-
exceed $2,000.

BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' COMMUNICATIONS
June 29, 1993
Commissioner Volpe requested that the Board be brought up to date
with regard to the discussions that are taking place with the aviation
flight school.
Affordable Housing Director Mihalic announced that there have been
no discussions since the negotiations terminated between Lee County
and the flight school. Me indicated that there have been a couple of
telephone conversations with the principals of Aviation Career Academy
and they will be visiting with staff during the first two weeks of
July.
Commissioner Volpe suggested that the Couisston formalize the
procedure with regard to who will be conducting the negotiations and
with whom.
It was the consensus of the Board that Commissioner Matthewm be
designated to conduct preliminary discussions and bring back a re~ort
to the Co~tseion after each meeting.
Code Enforcement Supervisor Clark advised that staff met with
residents of Cope/and regarding a clean up of the area which has
remained unattended for quite some time. He indicated that house
safety and health issues are very apparent.
Mr. Clark requested that the Board consider the waiver of tipping
fees for the next two weekends in Cope/and.
Oo~mimmt~er Oonstanttns moved, seconded by Co-missioner Matthsw~
and Om-Tied unanimously, to waive the tt~ing fees for the clean up in
Copula, u reqne~ted by staff.
Code Enforcement Supervisor Clark stated that approximately three
years ago, a developer came before the Board to request a variance to
allow an upscale type building with servants quarters, however the
ordinance prohibited this. He recalled that the Land Development Code
(LDC) was amended to allow servants quarters, however, there ts a
loop-hole.
Page 24
June 29, 1993
Mr. Clark reported that the LDC states if a structure is 2,~00
square feet or greater, a primary kitchen and a secondary kitchen is
allowed. He pointed out that there ts a structure on 39th Street S.W.
a~d White Boulevard that looks like a duplex. He noted that this
building has two separate laundry rooms and two kitchens and a 2' x 8'
separation wall down the middle.
Mr. Clark explained if the current language in the LDC allows
this, he does not believe it was the Board's intent to have this
occur, and if in fact it is not, staff could be directed to draft
amendments to the LDC to prohibit this.
Commissioner Volpe stated that it seems that this structure should
be red-tagged if a violation is suspected and not to al/ow for this to
occur pending the adoption of any amendments to the LDC.
Mr. Clark advised that staff will investigate to determine whether
they can proceed in that direction.

like to ~nterview the would-be appointees to the A~rport Authority.
Co~ss~oner Matthews affirmed that she would like to interv~ew
the people applying for positions on the Airport Authority.
Co~tssioner Saunders suggested that Admin~stratfve Assistant to
the Board F~lson contact the City regarding the criteria used in eva-
luat~ng appltcatfons for the City of Naples A~rport Authorfty and
d~strfbute same to the Board to be d~scussed on July 20, 1993.

Environmental Services Administrator Lorenz recalled that the
Board has expressed a desire to conduct an evening workshop to discuss
the Landfill expansion.

for Septelber 8, 1993, at 6:00 P.H.
Mr. Lorenz remarked that during the public hearing of the Habitat
Protection Ordinance (HP0), staff was directed to develop the Natural
Resources Protection Area (NRPA) Program and blend same into the ordi-
Mr. Lorenz advised that staff would like to present to the Board,
concept alternatives as to how the HPO could be worked into an NRPA
program. He suggested that a workshop be held later in the year as
opposed to right away, since this would allow staff to work with EPTAB
in developing the concept alternatives.
The consensus of the Board was that a workshop will be held
Septelber with re~ard to the Natural Resources Protection Area
Progru.
Assistant County Manager Hargett stated that the June 22, 1993
agenda packet contemplated that should the Commission desire to impose
the gas tax and do so by referendum, a referendum date was suggested
for some time after January for implementation of the tax in
September, 1994. He reported that it is legally possible to hold a
referendum prior to November 1, 1993, such that a gas tax could be
imposed this year.
Commissioner Saunders remarked that a public hearing has been
scheduled for August 3, 1993.
Assistant County Manager Hargett noted that each year the National
Association of Counties presents awards for incentive programs, effi-
ciency and productivity. He advised that Collier County has been
recognIzed in 21 different areas and presented awards for these
programs.
