SMITH ~KNTIN(3 I)O~OKALB:~ HABITAT FOR HUMANITY, INC. RE THI M&-TVKR OJ' iMPACT FKES - REQUKST DKI~KD; STAFF DIRECTED TO KXPKDITK ~ TO ORDTI[AHCE Mr. Charles Smith, Vice President, Immokalee Habitat for Humanity, advised that he is petitioning the Board with regard to the impact fees levied on the homes that are being built for the working poor. Mr. Smith explained that the cost of these homes is $42,000 and are mortgaged to families for 20 years at no interest. He reported that the homeowner pays approximately $230 per month, including insurance, tam:es and garbage collection. He indicated that these families are clearly within the guidelines for impact fee waivers. He stated that families with four members must earn no more than $14,400 per year to qualify for a house. Mr. Smith remarked that in the past, the County has authorized Habitat for Humanity to apply for the reimbursement of impact fees which have been paid. He related that except for the $1,800 school Impact fee, ordinances have been amended to allow impact fees to be at the time the permit is pulled, however, the new amendments do not become effective until October 1, 1993. In response to Commissioner Saunders, County Attorney Cuyler related that the Board has codified its policy in terms of the impact fee ordinances and waiver provisions therein. He noted that the Commission could make a policy decision to waive those fees, indi- cating that it is for the general good and is in the best interest of the County, as a whole to support affordable housing. He remarked that his only concern is that there is no criteria for these types of case-by-case situations. Greg Mihalic, Affordable Housing Director, announced that waivers and reimbursement on the seven properties total $34,226.64. He indi- cated that he supports Habitat's efforts to expand into the urban area. Commissioner Volpe recalled that to date, the county has committed Page 5 June 15, 1993 to $730,000 in waivers reimbursement of impact fees relating to affor- dable housing. He noted that the anticipated SHIP funds have been temporarily delayed and questioned where the requested fees for waivers would come from. Mr. Mihalic recommended that the M.S.T.U. General Fund 111 be utilized. Commissioner Matthews remarked that she supports what Habitat is doing, but suggested they bear with the County until the problems have been resolved and then seek the waiver. Mr. Smith said the requested funds are needed prior to October 1, 1993. He explained that during the first week of October, Habitat will be applying for 10-15 building permits. Commissioner Constantine stated that he understands that SHIP funds will not repay for things that are already committed to. Mr. Mlhalic affirmed that Commissioner Constantine's understanding is correct. He noted that he cannot guarantee that the State will allow the County to reimburse itself from the SHIP money. He indicated that many of the SHIP rules have changed. Commissioner Volpe suggested that because of the uncertainty of the SHIP program tha~ Habitat indulge the County for approximately 6 more weeks which would allow the ordinances to be in place tn addition to the program being approved. ¢.~m/~r Norrtm ~oved, ~econded by Co--lmatoner ~tthe~ and carrle~ u~uslF, to deny Kmbitat for HU~mit¥'m requemt regarding I~OB;~T']LMY~ItU I~XI~Z$:~IN~ ~&YC~ FOUNDATION 1~ NOTICZ O~ OIqDINAJlC~ VZOL&TIO]I - NO ACTZON Mr. Robert Nadeau, representing the Jaycees Foundation of Naples, Inc., petitioned the Board in response to a zoning violation. He reported that there have been unfortunate circumstances, through some of the people using the Jaycees Community Center. He requested direc- Page 6 June 15, 1993 tion from the Co.mission with regard to resolving this problem. Code Enforcement Director Clark reported that staff became aware of the situation due to a shooting Incident, and several noise complaints. He Indicated that after a review of the Jaycees docu- ments relative to the authority and conditions for the use of the building, it was learned that a PUD was granted tn 1975 for the exclu- sive use of the Jaycees and the occasional use of the Naples Jaycees sponsored Boy Scout Troop. Mr. Clark advised that this facility is being utilized aa a com- mercial hall, and this ts not approved tn the primarily residential neighborhood and thus, the problems that are being caused would be removed by enforcing what was allowed in the first place. The fo/lowing persons spoke with regard to this Item: William Ferguson 01ann Herriman Virginia Best Leroy Huenefeld Don Beach Mr. Clark advised that there was a Stipulated Agreement to the conditions Indicating that "... it is intended for the zoning requested PUD to make this building and Its related land compatible and acceptable to the area." He revealed that the Agreement further orates: "... The Ja¥cees clubhouse will be used to house the opera- tions of the organization. It will include general membership meetings, special meetings, the majority of which are held on an average of eight evenings per month; socials will be held on occasion, averaging one evening per month and one Saturday or Sunday per month. Occasional use also be used by the Naples Jaycees sponsored Boy Scout Troop. Accessory use shall include occasional outdoor barbequtng; asphalt play court indicated in the development plan will be used for recreational activities, I.e. volleyball and tennis." Commissioner Norris stated it appears if the stipulations to the Agreement are adhered to, the problems would be solved. Mr. Nadeau stated that he has been with the Naples Ja¥cees since 1980, noting that he started the Jaycees Foundation to do good things Page June 15, 1993 for the community and advised that he never saw the Stipulated Agreement until it was presented as attached to the regulations. He reported that the building has been rented, since its inception in 1985 and the usage has grown with the community in the Estates. In answer to Commissioner Norris, County Attorney Cuyler remarked that there is a violation and believes Mr. Clark will present same to the Code Enforcement Board to have the violation cured. Commissioner Saunders stated that he ts sympathetic to the Jaycees situation, but pointed out that the excerpt from the PUD document pro- v/dee that the uses will include "general membership and special meetings .... and socials on occasion, averaging one evening per month .... " He indicated that there is no ambiguity in the language that this organization is limited to Jaycees functions only and not functions for organizations renting space from the Jaycees. He advised that the only way to solve this problem, is through an amend- ment to the PUD document, which requires a public hearing. Commissioner Saunders noted that programs planned for the summer include a day camp for disadvantaged or disabled minors. He related that he does not believe people would object to this program, however, functions that are scheduled for the sole purpose of raising money, are not for the benefit of the community. Commissioner Constantine remarked that he does not oppose to al/owing a summer camp for disadvantaged children. Commissioner Volpe pointed out that the PUD states that this type of activity is not allowed. He cited that in his view, it is inappropriate to create some type of waiver for these activities. Commissioner Saunders remarked that staff has issued a notice to cease and desist and a notice of violation. He advised unless there is a motion to alter same, staff will proceed to ensure enforcement as interpreted by staff at the present time and this means the f~nctions, am outlined, with the possible exception of the day camp are likely not to be permitted. ~ A~ti~n w~ taken on thim itn. Page 8 June 15, Z993 (268~) ~t~Ff~D; PFTZTION~ TO PROVIDE SCH~DUL~ OF CONSTRUCTZON WITHIN 30 D~YS Mr. Jack Sptess, General Manager of WNPL requested a building per- mit extension for a proposed tower. He indicated that negotiations have recently taken place with regard to the sale of the television station or the buying out of the majority stockholder. Community Development Services Administrator Brutt stated that the second Provisional Use request in June, 1992, was refused, however, the applicant pulled a building permit prior to the time the con- ditlonal use expired and the applicant was within the parameters of the ex~st~ng code. He indicated that the s~x month building permit was ~enewed twice by the building offic~al, as pe~ the Code. He noted ~hat ~he o~g~nal bu~ldfng permit was fssued on June 18 and the permit extends through June ~7, ~993, and the applicant ~s within the t~me f~e to re.est an extension of the.pe~mit. M~. B~utt affirmed that staff has no object,on to the extension of the permit. Co~lss~one~ Volpe quesl]oned whethe~ Mr. Da~lln~ ~eques~ed an extension w~thtn the past six months. Mr. Brutt recalled that there was a re.est by staff for add~ional ]nfommat~on from M~. Darling prOOF ~o J~e 16, 1992, however, the Information was not p~ov~ded and ~he Board of County Co~iss~onems den~ed the future extension of the Conditional Use. He pointed out that Mr. Darling pulled the buildinG permit before the Conditional Use expired. Co~fsslone~ Matthews questioned the location of the p~oposed towe~, to which M~.

He pointed out that some of the state and county funded programs are being moved into programs that are federally funded, noting that this saves the county tax dollars since s local hatch is required for the bicycle program. Mr. Perry called attention to manor changes in the Executive Summary. He indicated that there have been reductions in the expen- ditures, however, the Executive Summary reflects the old amounts. He noted that Page ! indicates that the proposed budget is 12.8~ over last year, and this should be changed to 10.9~. He revealed that the fiscal impact on Page 2, should be changed to reflect a total budget in the amount of $233,100 in lieu of the 8287,100 figure as shown. He noted that the local match should be changed from $17,694 to Cc~a~mioner Volpe ~oved, seconded by Comtsatoner Norris and carried va~n~ly, to approve the Budget amendment request est~bllsht~ the MPO pro, rs for FY 1993-94, a presented by staff. sss l~--e~e~: 10:30 A.N. - Reconvened: 10:50 I.N. at: which tie l%ecord~ Secretary Ouevtn replaced Deputy Clerk Roll.an ss, Tape ~ (2S) County Attorney Cuyler commented this Item pertains to discussion of an Interim policy. He stressed his concern with establishing interim policies unless the Board ultimately reaches the point that there Is a sufficient health, safety and welfare consideration. Commissioner Saunders clarified that the County Attorney ts not recommending the Board establish an Interim po/Icy; rather that the ordinance itself be amended through the regular public hearing oo, OOO,, 18' Page 10 June 15, 1993 process, if that is the Board's decision. County Attorney Cuyler agreed, unless there is a crisis or a very serious emergency situation. John MadaJewski, Project Review Services Manager, recalled when this item was originally put forth to the Board based on the public petition requested by the Sterling Oaks group, the evaluation team provided an Executive Summary containing specific criteria dealing with hardships and health, safety and welfare issues. He said several meetings have been held with Staff and a large contingent from the development community Who are desirous of seeing this proposal move forward. He indicated Staff is of the opinion that this is not an engineering type function, and properties can be properly designed to drain, to be graded and be stabilized in order to prevent erosion from wind or water. He noted there ts also a concern on the part of Code Enforcement Staff related to long-term enforcement. Mr. MadaJewski referred to paragraph 5 of the Executive Summary, which he stated sets out the basis from the requests received, dealing with single family or two-family lots which are properties outside the site development ordinance review and approval process. He said it is Staffts feeling if the Board is in support of the final, hard language in this document, the process can be effectively administered. Commissioner Constantine inquired what are the perceived problems with the existing ordinance, other than water management? Mr. MadaJewski replied it will be much more prudent from a busi- ness sense to be able to permanently place material which necessarily must be moved when constructing a lake. In response to Commissioner Constantine, Mr. MadaJewskt agreed there is always the risk of a property changing hands. He pointed out that page 5, paragraph H, contains a safeguard by requiring a bond in the event land is cleared and abandoned. He said in that way, the funds are available to complete and stabilize the fi/ling to a safe standpoint. Commissioner Saunders questioned if there any pressing reasons for Page June 15, 1993 establishing an interim policy rather than going through the normal Land Development Code (LDC) amendment process? Mr. MadaJewski indicated Staff is aware of examples of properties that need to be cleared and filled based on the construction of the infrastructure. He said those properties will either become landlocked, holding water and may become mosquito traps causing a detriment. The following people spoke regarding this item: Mark Minor Patrick Neale Chris Straton Christine Ramsay Dorothy Fitch Don Pickworth Mr. MadaJewski reported Staff has been very diligent in attempting to put together this interim po/icy. He concluded it is Staff's tion this i8 a broad based issue and the development community should submit the proposal to the Board and pay the $1400 fee. Co~miesioner Constantine indicated he is not certain he to in favor of the interim policy, however, he is very uncomfortable with the situation as described by Patrick Neale, with the properties on Marco Island. Co~missioner Matthews referred to comments made that by appointing an agent to act on their behalf, those property owners can act as a group to request an extension of the Army Corps of Engineers' permit. Commissioner Norris stated he ts not in support of either the Interim policy or amending the ordinance to allow filling and clearing prior to issuance of a building permit. He added, however, the pro- perty owners on Marco Island have a special case that needs to be treated individually, because they are about to lose the value of their properties. In answer to Commissioner Volpe, Attorney Neale stated Deltona does not have the formal permission of the other 26 property owners to represent them. Ne said the initial plan was that Deltona would undertake to fill the properties on their own if permitted. Commissioner Saunders pointed out Attorney Neale's client has until the end of September to have substantial compliance with the Page 12 June 15, 1993 Corps fill permit. He suggested the Board should see the terms of that permit tn order to see the likelihood of it being extended. He said there is sufficient time for that evaluation if Attorney Neale will provide the Board with information concerning his legal problem. He also suggested the Settlement Agreement with Deltona be looked at to see if there ts any reason to distinguish these properties from any others. Commissioner Volpe noted those property owners have time to exhaust any administrative remedies that may exist. Attorney Neale indicated he ts more than willing to provide legal and factual back-up to the Board with regard to distinguishing this area from other areas tn the County. Commissioner Saunders suggested that Attorney Neale provide the information requested and return to the Board as a public petition as soon as possible after the Board's recess in July. (2128) I~X~]EST THAT THE BOARD OF COUNTY ~ISSIOlgER~ A~P~E MAKING A LOAN OF ~T~D~'ELOPME~T BLOCK ~RA~T FUNDS TO ~K)ODLAND ~AYNA~INA, II[C., AIgDAIITRORIZE THE CHAII~IAN TO ~X~OUT~ TH~ A~RP~MENTS - TO BE m~Ot~HT BACK AFTE~ 7/10/93 Russell Shreeve, Housing Program Analyst, explained as a result of Hurricane Andrew, Collier County has received $250,000 In Community Development Block Grants to provide assistance to people who incurred damage because of the storm. He recalled on October 6, 1992, the Board of County Commissioners adopted a resolution authorizing the Countyt8 Department of Housing and Urban Improvement to prepare contracts and other documents necessary for the administration of the grant. He said after notifying businesses In the southern part of the County, only one business has requested and is qualified to receive assistance from the grant. He reported Staff has worked with the County Attorney's Office to make a loan to Goodland Bay Marina in an amount not to exceed $110,397.31. He Indicated this, coupled with their insurance settlement of $91,602.69, will give them a total 21 Page 13 June 15, 1993 a~ount of $202,000. He noted the loan will be made with federal funds the County will receive through the Department of Community Affairs (DCA), and disbursement will not be made until the County receives those funds. He said repayment will begin in six months and take place over the next 19 years at an interest rate of 4 percent. He communicated repayment will provide approximately $158,000 to Collier County to be lent to other businesses to create or retain Jobs for lower income families. Co~missioner Norris inquired if this is the marina that has been 'brought before the Code Enforcement Board because of code violations? Dick Clark, Code Enforcement Director, replied in the affirmative. He said Good/and Bay Marina was cited before the Code Enforcement Board on May 2?th for five violations to their Site Development Plan; specifically, elimination of their required water retention areas, addition of restaurant seats and dry dock boat slips without authority, reduction tn required parking spaces and construction or alteration on site without the required building permits. He said the ~arina was given until July 19th to bring these violations into compliance or be fined $250 per day for every day thereafter each violation continues to exist. He concluded the violations have not been removed to date. Comm~ssioner Norris asked if any progress has been made towards eliminating the violations? Mr. Clark responded virtually no corrections have been made, a/though permits have been obtained. Comm~ssioner Norris questioned if these are considered minor or smJor violations? Mr. Clark reported they are fairly substantial. In fact, he said, some of the violations Impact neighboring condominiums, which ts where the complaints originated. Commissioner Matthews pointed out a typographical error on the first page of the Participating Parties Agreement, which Assistant Page 14 June 15, 1993 County Attorney Heidi Ashton agreed to correct. Co~mieeloner Hatthews also mentioned her concern with a provision dealing with the cessation of operation of Goodland Bay Marina by the current o~ners. Assistant County Attorney Ashton stated the language can be ·mended to require full payment of the outstanding loan at the time of closing. Co,missioner Norris communicated his opinion that this transaction does not seem proper and should not be finalized until after the code violations hav~ been corrected. Commissioner Matthews questioned whether the v/o/at/one existed prior to Hurricane Andrew, to which Mr. Clark responded in the affirmative. Mr. Shreeve indicated he was not aware of the code violations. He said the owners have spent all their available funds to continue their operation through the winter months. He suggested that he meet with them to est up a time schedule whereby the first money from the loan will be applied to those areas needing to come into compliance. Commissioner Norris stated he is not willing to loan money to remove code violations that were not caused by the hurricane. Commissioner Constantine suggested the owners be given the oppor- tunity to bring the property into compliance. Commissioner Volpe agreed, recalling that the Code Enforcement Board has ordered that the violations be removed by July 19th. ~ion~r Norris ~oved, seconded by Conlseloner Constantine ~nd c~z~tod 4/0 (Commiamioner Saunders out), to continue this ~te~ until ~fter July 10, 1993. sss ~t~-~d: li:10 P.M. - Reconvened: 1:05 P.M. at which tim ~ecording Secrst~ry Carney replaced Recording Secretary Guevln s.s (sams) Item ~OB1 R~SOL~TXO~ 03-244 r~ITABLISHXNO TH~ SPKKD LIMIT ON PALM DRIVe, GLADES BO~LIVAID0 AID F~LI~HOOD BOULKVARKD - ADOPTILD.

He pointed out that there is a problem with the issue dealing with "No Fishing from Bridge" zones as the State Statute does not carry from the state to local municipalities and as a result the resolution that has been prepared cannot be used. Be noted the creation of an ordi- nanc~ would give the Board the authority to act upon this and advised that Staff would prepare an ordinance and bring it back before the Board along with the "No Fishing from Bridge" zones resolution.

PO~E OF EECAVATING A TWE3FTY ACR~ LAKE FOR TH~ GOLDEN ~AT~ CO~UNITY PARE ON I~OEALEE ROAD - APPROVED Public Services Administrator Olliff disclosed that this is a request for some preliminary work for the 56 acre site located on Immokalee Road. He remarked that the Board decided to build a 20 acre park adjacent to Big Cypress Elementary School and the remainder of the property iD to be considered for more passive activities. He suggested the following Staff recommendations: the performance of some test borings to determine the depth of f/l/ material available for excavation along with the best location for the lake, and direc- tion to competitively solicit for a lease to excavate the lake by a private party. He added that if these recommendations are approved the cost are estimated to be between $36,000.00 and $40,000.00 for site planning and boring and the funds are proposed to come from regional park impact fees. He revealed that the revenues are esti- mated to be $80,000.00. Commiselou~r Norrl· moved, leconded by Commissioner Constantine to mppr~vm ~ reco~mendation to pro'eld with preliminary lite pl~ing through test borings and proce·s · request for proposals for & lease for tho purpose of excavating a 20 acre lake. T&pe~3 Commissioner Constantine contended that since the lake was planned for and considering the estimated revenue, the county would be paid to excavate something it had planned to. Public Services Administrator Olllff confirmed that this is correct. In response to Commissioner Volpe, Public Services Administrator Olliff replied that there is some interest in a fill pit project. Commissioner Volpe asked whether the firms interested would bear the initial cost of the test borings? Page 17 June 15, 1993 Mr. Olliff remarked that this is structured so that the lease document can be prepared once Staff knows the results of the test borings and the site of the lake can be determined. Commissioner Volpe suggested that if there is an interested party, he could pay for the initial test borings and incorporate the results Into the design. Commissioner Volpe noted that if this becomes a com- mercial excavation site it will require a conditional use permit and revealed his concern on time constraints as to when this lease would begin and end? Commissioner Constantine mentioned that the Request for Proposal would address the time constraints. Commissioner Saunders commented that if the lease Is conditioned on obtaining a conditional use from the Board, would it not be prudent to go through that process prior to the expenditure of testing? Mr. Olliff replied that Staff is trying to establish whether the Idea has merit. In response to Commissioner Matthews, Mr. Olliff replied that with the exception of 3 acres, the rest of the site is upland pine. He said he anticipates no need for fill work on the property to create a park. In reply to Commissioner Volpe, Mr. 011iff revealed that the pre- liminary design would be done by an outside firm. County Manager Dorrlll disclosed that Law Engineering would most likely be the firm to do the testing and preliminary site design. ~ ~ll for th~ question, the motion carried 4/1 (Co~aimmioner volpe ~). ~ ~ FOR TKE BAZ, AIICI OF FISCAL YEAR 1992/93 - APPlt~ Administrative Services Administrator Ochs requested a budget amendment for the balance of the fiscal year. He explained that tn the Fall of 1989, the Board voted to self-fund their Group Health Page 18 June 1§, 1993 Insurance Program. Mr. Ochs noted that during the first three years of the program, co,ts have been well within budget and annual premium rate Increases have been well below the medical inflation rate, however, during the later stages of fiscal year 1992 continuing Into the first part of 1993 the c/aims activity and costs have increased substantially. He said if these trends continue Staff ts projecting costs will exceed budgeted amounts by approximately 1.9 million dollars this fiscal year. Mr. Ochs Indicated that Staff recommends a budget amendment that would fund the deficit with a combination of unanticipated revenues, projected savings, other operating expense Items In the medical funds and medical reserve funds that are tn the medical budget. Mr. Ochs revealed that Staff Is preparing a comprehensive plan of various options for fiscal year 1993/94 for Implementation by the Board.

Be pointed out that the money is being disbursed to different areas and ~ust be allocated by September 30, 1993 or matching funds must be returned to the State with interest. County Manager Dorrtll reported the Staff ts considering dif- ferent options regarding the hanger and reiterated that this step will keep the County eligible for half of the funding to come from the Page 19 June 15, 1993 EMS grant.

Co~uaisstoner Matthews noted that mitigation was mentioned in the Staff Report and requested clarification. Mr. Lorenz clarified that part of the total site will be used for the actual landfill and approximate~y 1/3 of the site will be required for mitigation due to the disturbance of wetlands.

Jenkins Barbara Jenkins In response to Ms. Rooster's comments, Commissioner Constantine inquired as to where a person could review the County's future plans. Mr. Lorenz commented that there is a public facilities map in the Orowth Management Plan, but it is very general. Couissioner Constantine asked Mr. Lorenz if he was familiar with Section ?, which was suggested as an alternative. Mr. Lorenz replied that Section 7 was approximately 10 mi/es away from the existing landfill, that the acreage to the west was wetlands. He said that acreage to the west generally sold at $20,000.00 per acre rather than the northern acreage which sold at $4,000.00 per acre. He concluded that there would be a Z0-1S~ incremental cost going that additional distance away from the ex/sting landfill site. Commissioner Constantine indicated that a cost analysis between I,:" Page 20 June 15, '1993 the two sites would be beneficial. Com~isstoner Volpe asked how many acres have been acquired within Section 25. Mr. Lorenz replied that 312 acres out of a potential 360 acres have already been purchased. Com~isstoner Volpe in~lred if land purchases could be delayed so that a workshop meeting could be held. He also asked what d~etance the l~dftll expanslon would be to any exlstlng residences. - ~r. Lorenz answered that the exlsttng residences would be approxl- ~ately 500 feet from one resldence. ~i~ ~lF, t~t ~ ~ent~ ~r~p ~ sch~l~ at the ~lt~ ~ibl~ It. ~ ~~ ~ ~ BID ~3-2029 ~R ~ING C~~I~/ ~~ ~~ AT ~ ~ ~LL ~ ~D~ David Russell, Acting Director, Solid Waste Management Department, stated that Modern Recycling, Inc. was low bidder and requested that the Board award his the contract.

Ass~et~t County Attorney Wedge] replied that Modern Recycling did not provide all the detail originally re~ested but subee~ent/y pre- eented an expense/revenue balance sheet which was requested. Mr. Russell reported that they always try to acco~odate ~n order to get the best arrangement for the cowry, adding that they have worked w~th Modern Recycling in the past and know that they are repu- table. Mr. Welgel declared that the Board purchasing policy provides for the ~ard to waive minor lrre~lartttes in The bidding process, adding Page 21 June l§, 1993 that this was not a bid re-negotiation. ~ =all for the question, the ~otton carried (2S?O) John Boldt, Water Management Director, provided the Board with recent actions taken in Riviera Golf Estates and outlined a proposed action plan. He recalled that Staff was directed to establish a spe- cial aasessmen'k district to enclose a portion of an open drain area, to return with a schedule as to when short-term Improvements will be undertaken and continue to evaluate appropriate engineering design for the long term plan. Mr. Boldt described the short-term plan and reported that most items have been completed with the exception of the culvert under Charlamagne Boulevard, noting that it is Staff's recommendation that this Item should not be done at this time. The following people spoke on the sub3ect: Henry Matlosz Susan Johnson Cindy Cross ~ion Norris ~oved, seconded by Contaatonar Volpe ~nd ~l~n~l¥, to accept the status report ~nd direct Staff to ~li~ a ~ial uses~t district for this project. ~ ~ INT~ROFERABILITY B~EEN THE COISTITUTIOIAL ~ ~T~ [~O~ISSINO SYSTEMS - STAFF TO PROCnD WITH Commissioner Saunders commented that Staff gave its presentation two weeks ago. Mary Wetgold of the Collier County Productivity Committee, and also representing the MIS Master Plan Committee, stated that in order to create a open system computer environment several steps must be taken; tn addition to the completion of the communications highway the proper software application must be procured. She emphasized that the Page 22 June l§, 1993 highest priority has been identified as the Community Development Services Division, therefore, it is the Committees' recommendation that the Board secure an independent technical advisor to determine the proper software application, oversee vendor selection, installa- tion and e~ployee training. Ms. Weigold also informed the Board of the Committeesf recommen- dation that the funding to complete the network be delayed until the ~oint committee has answers to all their questions, adding that this may be possible by September of 1993. Ms. Weigold stressed that these recommendations were not all inclusive and truly represent only the initial phase of implemen- Cotmty Manager Dorrlll indicated that he did not agree with the Co~u~ittees~ recommendations since this project was in progress before the inception of the MIS Committee. He reported that they were not correctly sol/cited. Finance D/rector Yonkosky noted that this request is for hardware, adding that the software could still be selected. He explained that this recommendation would give access to the data of various constitu- tional officers. He stated that the Clerk and the other constitu- tional officers in con]unction with Mr. Dorrill reviewed the Boards' request to identify how the information can be accessed, noting that this solution allows each user to define what type of software would be needed. Me. Weigold revealed that moving ahead with this item could limit the ~stem to only one option. Guy Carlton, Tax Collector, revealed that his department has spent a great deal of time and money developing a communication system that meets the requests to share information and the only department missing is that of the Clerkfs. He stated he is recommending that the Board approve this request. Abe Skinner, Property Appraiser, disclosed that his department has Page 23 June 15, 1993 made ths connection with that of the Clerk's, but the Clerk's depart- ment still has the option of progra#ming in order to use the data pro- vided rather than reviewing lt. Frank Brutt, Community Development Services, thanked the Committees' for recommending the Inclusion of a 820,000.00 stipend for & consultant to advise Community DeVelopment of their data processing needs. Steve Jenner of the MIS Committee, confirmed that after review of the situation there is no need to proceed immediately. Mr. Yonkosk-y indicated that if there Is a cost effective way to replace the fiber optic system he ts unaware of it, adding that he ts simply requesting a way to link Information from one constitutional officer to another. ~e expressed his desire to move ahead with the hardware and let Uommuntty Development work with a consultant on the development of a software package. Commissioner Saunders declared that he appreciates all the time and effort the two committees have spent on this issue, but because of the committees' late Introduction, he feels he must support Staff's recommendation. In response to Commissioner Volpe, Mr. Yonkosky replied that his main concern is the ability to update all the non ad valorem tax rolls electronically, therefore, if this Item ts delayed it would mean a delay of & whole year's use in context with the tax rolls. Mr. Dorrlll summarized the situation by explatnlng that in order to connect the systems, a "server" must be purchased, and will assist one system in conjunction with a software package, that still needs to be developed to exchange information with another. He added that he recouends approval for the automation of Development Services. ~l~t~r C~t~antlne ~rv~d, ~lcond~d by Com~tmmAonmr Morris to mt~provm Stm£f'm rmcommendmtAon, l~n cmll Tot the ~uemtlon, thm ImotAo~ catrrimd 4/0 {Commtmmloner Matthm~em out).

He noted that option D, which calls for the Army Corps of Engineers to do the dredging would take from 7 to 10 years. In response to Commissioner Norris, Mr. Conrecode reported that this section of the river ts impassable except for very small boats.

Sur~ 15, 1993 Robert Demarest, Library Director, outlined his request for recon- sideration. He declared that the present level of service ts 1.05 books per capita and if a change were to be made tn the Growth Management Plan, it would allow a change in rate in impact fees to receive additional revenue. He said he ts askinG for approval to increase the collection at 1.O5 books per capita to the state level of 1.5 books per capita over a 10 year period. He maintained that if this increase is approved, every time the service level is changed, the County will be required to provide the dollars for the books, but then there will be two additional means of income to offset this; noting that for every dollar spent .11-.12¢ ts returned from State Aid to Libraries Grant and impact fees could also be increased. In response to Commissioner Constantine, Mr. Demarest disclosed that for every Incremental increase approximately $20,0~0 would be collected by the means of income mentioned. He advised that to achieve his desired level of service $200,000.00 would have to be spent a year, totaling $1,000,000.O0 in a five year period. Com~issioner Constantine argued ~hat even with the funds from impact fees and state grants it would take 18 to 25 years to offset the ~oney that would be needed to Increase the service level. Sydney Mellinger of the Library Advisory Board, stated that it is important to add this into the Growth Management Plan so that funds from the state and impact fees may be collected for books that are presently being purchased. She urged the Board to increase the ser- vice level at this time. Fred Tarrant spoke on the subject. Commt~to~er ~rm moved to r&lme th~ level of ~rvtca to 1.1 per c~tta. The motion failed, due lo lack of a second. Commissioner Volpe related that he strongly supports the library, but hesitates on the Issue of $800,000.00 coming from the General fund. Ck~m/mio~wr Saur~erm moved to raise t~ level of service to 1.1 per g~tt~ with no consideration of Going beyond that level. Seconded 35 Page 26 June 15, 1993 by Collissioner Volpe, Mr. Demarest reiterated that the library is currently at 1.05, impact fees could be collected today based on that, he stated that if $200,000.00 was allocated it would do two things: enable the purchase of books for the new Golden Gate Estates branch library and allows another increase in impact fees immediately. Commissioner Constantine expressed his concern that if the $200,000.00 is allocated today a year from now the same request will be made. ~ ~11 for the question, the motion failed 2/2 ~i~ ~m~ C~n~t~ntlne opposed and Commissioner N~tth~ out). Commissioner Norris contended that he Is fully supportive of allo- cating the money to increase the number of books and increasing the number per capita but does not want to get into a position tn the Growth Management Plan where the county would be mandated to fund the library for larger amounts, he would like the flexibility to do it when funds are available.

County Attorney Cuyler stated that the first part of the resolu- tion establishes proposed dates for Board adoption, the second part ts the Grant application and Section Three makes slight revisions to guidelines that the Board adopted that were recommended by the Tourist Page 27 June 15, 1993 Develope~ent Counct 1. Mr. Cuyler pointed out that there ts an audit requirement under the guidelines for those persons involved in activities and promo- tions and noted that this requirement is cost prohibitive. Commissioner Volpe Inquired who will audit the books of those who receive funds? County Attorney Cuyler replied that no one from the county will audit them, but since the county will be reimbursing them i.e. faci- lity rental, they will give the county their documentation, and the ccrunty will pay them for their costs. He added that Mr. Yonkosky is comfortable that this ts sufficient to cover the audit requirement. Com~isstoner Volpe suggested that the level of funding may require a "pre-audit". Mr. Cuyler remarked that he could put flexibility Into that provi- sion. Coutssloner Saunders reviewed the dates for the Beach Renourishment/Pass Maintenance and the Tourism Grant funding Issues.

(24aS) Zt~ ~1~ DZ~I~ ~Z]M ~ CO~ ~A~:S ~Z~E - CO~ ~AG~, ~ A~ ~ C~SSZO~ CO~T~Z~ TO ~l~ CO~ Commissioner Constantine reported that last August, the Board of County Commissioners requested a cost comparison prior to purchasing a new vehicle, with regards to a car allowance versus buying a vehicle. County Manager Dorrtl] provided a purchase history, lease option, and a car allowance example. Commissioner Constantine questioned the amount of mileage that would be attributed to county business and whether depreciation should be considered. Commissioner Constantine remarked that he thought the intent of this report was to consider whether a car allowance was a realistic alternative to providing a vehicle from the county fleet. County Manager Dorril] replied that he thought it would be on the basis of comparison, adding that the current contract provision calls for "unrestricted and unlimited personal use", and does not agree that he should be reimbursed only for official business. 48 Page 29 June 15, 1993 Co,missioner Saunders commented that whatever is allotted per mile would include depreciation. Co-missioner Constantine asked County Manager Dorrill how he feels a car allowance compares? County Manager Dorrtll stated that according to the terms the Board ts currently providing, the purchase of a vehicle is least costly. Co~mtesioner Constantine indicated his biggest concern is Section 5 of Mr. Dorriil's employment agreement, which states "that he will be provided a vehicle from the County fleet". He provided the Board with a list of Collier County Fleet Management purchases from 1990, noting that Mr. Dorrill's vehicle is the most expensive vehicle purchased to date. Commissioner Constantine noted that there are many types of vehicles to choose fro= within the County fleet and it is his opinion that this is in line with what Mr. Dorrill's employment agreement eta- tee. Contssioner Volpe observed that there are two issues; whether the BCC provides the Manager with a car a car allowance and whether the vehicle that is purchas,~d is consistent with his contract. Com~issloner Constantine stated that he feels the appropriateness of The vehicle should b(? addressed first, so that a fair comparison can be made. He indicated that he does not feel that $23,000.00 is in line with his employment agreement so a comparison cannot be made. Commissioner Volpe asked the amount budgeted for the vehicle. County Manager Dorr]ll replied that his vehicle prior to this one was the same type of vehicle. He said depreciation is averaged but this particular vehicle was budgeted, as there was a separate accounting of that. He indicated that he does not have a figure but it was budgeted and scheduled to be replaced this year. Conissioner Volpe disclosed that the relevancy of the question is that under the wording of the employment contract, the county could provide a Chevy Cavalier at $8,§00.00 or a Chevy Blazer at $16,000.00. Page 30 June 15, 1993 He said he assumes that the compensation package includes a budgeted amount. County Manager Dorrill announced that there is no specific provi- sion or type of vehicle to be purchased. Commissioner Constantine reiterated that the wording according to the employment agreement reads "from the county fleet", and after reviewing the Collier County Fleet Management's list, he does not see any Jeep Laredo's irt the current fleet. County Manager Dorrtll confirmed that since there is a past and a current value in the course of dealing, this contract implies a certain taxable value. He concluded that his position is the value of this contract included this type of vehicle in four different instances and he would Imply that type of value in the future. Commissioner Constantine argued that because "'that's the way it has been" is why we do something, adding that If we have done something wrong in the past, it should be corrected. He asked Mr. Dorrtll where he would draw the line when you say "from the county fleet"? County Manager Dorrtll emphasized that In the course of dealing tn this particular case, the county fleet owns and operates all types of vehicles from ambulsnces to sedans and this vehicle Is owned by the county and is part of the county fleet, adding he does differentiate what is owned by the county fleet and what has been established as a routine motor pool vehicle. Co~tsstoner Conetantlne asked Mr. Dorrtll if he ts Involved In the melectton process of the other vehicles tn the county fleet. County Manager Dorrtll said he is not, but he was asked to pick this vehicle by fleet management because historically the county purchases vehtcles off the lot with whatever dealer has an annual contract with the County and to his knowledge the County Manager has never had a standard white type vehicle, therefore, he picked the color. Co~issioner Volpe announced that Mr. Dorrill either breeched his Page 31 June 15, 1993 contract or did not, he remarked that he does not know how that question can be resolved. Commissioner Saunders stated that the only way to resolve this iss~le for the long term and is to provide the County Manager with a mileage allowance and /et him drive whatever he chooses, adding that the I.R.S. recognizes .28¢ a mile for the cost to own, operate, insure and maintain a vehicle. He said if the County Manager is a/located .280 per mile, then he can maintain and insure his own vehicle and this issue would not be brought up again. A discussion was held regarding past car allowances. Commissioner Volpe asked Mr. Dorrlll if he is "on call" 24 hours a day, in terms of reimbursement. County Manager Dorrtll replied that he is not, noting that there are very few perks associated with his Job. He remarked that there are Two perks in addition to salary; an unrestricted automobile and a reserved parking space to put the automobile in. Commissioner Saunders asked Mr. Dorrill what his salary is at present. County Manager Dorrill answered that hie salary is approximately $94,000.00 per year plus 2~ for the retirement fund. Commissioner Saunders suggested that the employment contract be reviewed, noting that ,~hen the contract was executed, Section 4 of the contract provided a salary of $63,072.00 plus 2~, and Section 5 dealt with the automobile. He suggested that at the time the contract was executed at that salary the additional incentive for the Manager in the form of a car allowance was required. County Manager Dory'ill replied that he has no problem sitting down and discussing his con1:ract, but his only concern is that any contract negotiations should no*: be held at a public hearing. Commissioner Saunders suggested that Commissioner Constantine, County Attorney Cuyler and County Manager Dorrill discuss and review the employment agreement, in particular Section 5, and see if any Page 32 June ~5, 1993 itemm need to be revisited, and report back to the Board of 'County Commissioners. Comum~ssioner maunders added that most employment contracts are re- negotiated every few years. County Manager Dorrill requested that if an agreement cannot be reached, he would like to meet with Commissioner Saunders prior to bringing any revisions back before the Board. Co~mimsioner Saunders replied that he is always available, as are any of the other Commissioners. County Manager Dorrlll stated that he typically deals with the Chairman on contract matters, but would meet with Commissioner Conat~ntine and County Attorney Cuyler initially. Commissioner Volpe asked when the issue would be resolved. Co~missioner Constantine agreed to bring h~s findings back to the Board by June 29th, the last meeting before the summer recess. Commissioner Saunders mentioned that Commissioner Matthews was concerned about l~ability Insurance and gave Commissioner Constantine a memo regarding that issue. (~e~) ~OAI~FCO~ITT O(~WIBSIO~'B COI~'IU~ZCAT~OX~ Commissioner Norris noted that the cost of the health insurance issue is a major problem. He asked Administrative Services Administrator Ochs ~o review the possibility and the feasibility of leasing lower level employees with the intention of saving the county money on health benefits. Administrative Services Administrator Ochs reported that the Boarda' costs for Social Security is 7.65~, the Boards' costs for the Florida Retirement System is 17.75~, noting that these costs must be pa~d in any event. He added that the concept of a leasing company is typically applied to smaller organizations of less than 300 employees. In response to Co~,lssioner Norris, Mr. Ochs indicated that an Page 33 June l§, 1993 8-10~ turnover is typical for entry level employees. Co,,~issloner Saunders suggested that Commissioner Norris and Administrative Services Administrator Ochs research this issue further. (¢~g) Commissioner Norris mentioned that a 90 day extension was granted to s time-share solicitation company. He stated that the request was granted because the Board was assured that there were no other com- panies involved in that regard and that the petitioner was unaware of the law. Ommmmimmim Morris prmmmntmd a letter fro~ smother compmn¥ thmt Oommissioner Norris promised to explore the Issue ~urther to see if it ~arrants reconsideration. (~4~) County Attorney Cuyler presented a letter regarding the Point Narco PUD amendment. Co~missioner Volpe declared that this property should not be pri- vate property as there is a flaw in the initial rezoning itself. Commissioner Saunders stated that the property was to be deeded to the Marco Island Civic Association, which is a private ownership, to be used by the Marc,~ Island residents' Beach Association. Co~missloner Saunders requested that County Attorney Cuyler pre- sent the Board with a response in writing as to the validity of the a/legations. ($8*) Commissioner Saunders noted that he received a fax from Lee County Commissioner Ray Juda with a possible agenda for a Joint Lee/Collier County meeting proposed for July 26, 2993 at 1:30 P.M. A brief discussion was held regarding a meeting with the Bonita Springs Chamber of Commerce. Page 34 June 15, 1993 Col~issioner Saunders reported that he would contact the Bonita Springs Chamber of Commerce to set up a meeting. He also directed County Manager Dorrill to address the issues that are under con- sideration with Lee County staff. (10o~) County Manager Dorrill mentioned that the vehicle that he purchased did not cost $23,000.00, it cost $10,600.00 plus the trade- in. (11~) Xte~l Frances Barsh spoke on the following subjects: the library level of service, the community block grant for Goodland Marina, the health plan for Collier County employees and the County Manager's vehicle. ~tt~ ~d c~ri~ ~t~]y t~t the foll~l~ It~ ~91 ~~ ~ ~IW IN ~ ~ OF A L~ OF ~DIT ~~ ~T ~. 59,468 'CONCO~ AT ~ SeePage lt~ ,16A~ See Page lt~ ,l~A4 le~'X~ 03-239, ~I~IlTIN0 lq~LI#lNAl~ ACC~'TA~CK OF TI~ ROADWAY, DI~AX]~, II~T~ ~ S~ ~ ~OR ~ FINAL FLAT OF =MX$SXON VXLL&~ ~TTMO" - Ir~TH ~TIPULATXON~ A~ LISTED IN TH~ ~clrfxv~ Page 35 See Page June ~5, ~993 ~~ 90--240, ~]ULNTING FINAL ACCEPTANCE OF THE ROADMAT, DRAINAGE, MATER AID S3~MKR ~ FOR THE FINAL PLAT OF 'BRIARMOOD DWIT See Page. ~' Itel ~16~6 ACCKPTAJJCl OF MILTKR FACIT.
