Plt~ATZO~ OF 1992 COLLIER COU)~Y CONPREHENSIVE A]INUAL FINANCIAL
I~EPO~f -
Dwight Brock, Clerk of Circuit Court, stated this is a presen-
tation of the 1992 Collier County Comprehensive Annual Financial
Report. Re indicated that for the last six years, the Collier County
Finance Department has received an award from GFOA for the financial
statement. He stated that he is very proud of the staff that worked
on this report and also thanked Coopers & Lybrand for their
assistance in performing the audit and their cooperation.
John Yonkosky, Finance Director, stated that after he has made his
presentation to the Board, this report will be forwarded to the State
Auditor General which is the last step of the process before the 1992
financial reports are laid to rest. He indicated that the major por-
tion of the 1992 Collier County Comprehensive Annual Financial Report
is the financial accounting records and transaction records of the
Board of County Commissioners for the year. He stated that there is a
separate financial report for each of the Constitutional Officers and
a section that is called the Auditor General Section within the actual
book. He noted that the Auditor General Section contains management
letter comments, which are required by the Auditor General. He stated
that from his perspective there are two very important documents
needed, noting that one is the budget which is the spending plan for
the County and the other is the Comprehensive Annual Finance Report
which is basically a report card that tells what the final adopted
budget was and how the spending took place during the year based on
the budget that was established. He stated that it also provides a
balance sheet which is a picture of the assets, liabilities, equity,
and other credits that the BCC has at that particular point in time.
He stated that the report has an introduction, and then a transmittal
letter which is a narrative description of the information that is in
the financial statements. He indicated that the second section of the
Pa~e 6
May 4, 1993
report is the financial section which As the top of the pyramid and
behind that is the governmental fund detail, followed by the
proprietary funds, and then the fiduciary funds. He stated that the
next section is the supplemental schedules which is not required but
it is very informative noting that it tells all the debt services that
the County Is responsible for over the years. He noted that the next
section is the statistical section which Is a ten year history of dif-
ferent t~pes of spending and ~nformation that reflects social and eco-
nomic data as well as identifying financial trends for Collier County.
He indicated that the financial section is the single audit report
which is based on the single audit act of 1984 which allows the County
to have one audit and have it reported instead of having separate
audits on State and Federal grants that would cost a significant
amount.
Finance Director Yonkosky referred to the transmittal letter and
the paragraph on Cash Management, noting that on Page VII there is a
chart that shows a five year history of the interest that has been
earned by Collier County. He stated that the interest earnings has
been tn excess of the State Board of Administration which is a state-
wide pooled fund. He stated that during this past year, Collier
County earned 5.4~ on average compared to the State Board of
Administration's 4.75~. He stated that for many years, the Clerk's
Finance Office has had a goal to beat the State Board of
Administration in interest earnings by at least .50~ and the goal was
reached again this year. He referred to the General Government
Functions page, noting that the total general government revenues
collected by the County during I~ff92 was approximately 129.35 million
dollars which was an increase of 2.?5 million dollars over FYgl. He
indicated that expenditures of 129.82 million dollars were actually
disbursed for F~92 which is a decrease of 3.5 million dollars from
FY91. He noted that the total revenues collected for all fund types
including governmental and proprietary funds was $187,466,8§1 which
was an increase of 9.2 mi/lion dollars over the previous fiscal year.
Page 7
May 4, 1993
He indicated that total County-wide expenditures were 18! million
dollars for FY92 which represents a decrease of $332,545 over the pre-
vious fiscal year.
Mr. Yonkosky stated that the General Fund Unreserved Fund Balance
is on target at this point, noting that there Is about 2 months cash
reserve which is very healthy.
Ms. Phyllis Jones of Coopers & Lybrand stated that her main
responsibility of the report is the one page that indicates that the
financial statements are reasonably stated and they do represent the
financial position and condition of the County on September 30, 1992.
Commissioner Matthews questioned under the Auditors General
Section why there are five comments from the prior year that continue
to apply, to which Mr. Brock stated that the comments that were made
in the past were addressed by hie predecessor. He stated that in the
future, if at all possible, the management letter comments that are
made by the independent auditor will be addressed by the Clerk.
Commissioner Matthews questioned how many years the business con-
tinutty plan has not been addressed, to which Ms. Jones of Coopers &
Lybrand stated that she believes that this ts the third year.
Commissioner Matthews stated that the County is running a 300
million dollar business, therefore, a continuity plan is very impor-
tant.
Commissioner Matthews questioned the Capital Outlay as to why
there is such a large amount of money that was not spent, to which Mr.
Yonkosk~ indicated that there was a lot of carry forward. She
requested a list of capital pro,acts from County Manager Dorrill and
also what the variance of $35 million would represent.
Commissioner Matthews questioned the revenues under taxes as to
why there ts a $2.5 m~llton variance, to which Mr. Yonkosky indicated
that this only accounts for 3%, adding that the County has a real good
score card on ad valorem taxes.
Commissioner Matthews referred to the accrued compensation and
questioned if the County has a cap on how much time people can accrue,
Page 8
Hay 4, 1993
to which County Manager Dorrill stated that there is a cap on both
annual and sick leave and then there are limitations as to what por-
tion can actually be paid at termination.

~GI~T~ ~A~ 0Y ~ ~0RIDA ~S~IATION OF C0~I~S
Mr. Stephen Hogge, Director of Legislative Affairs, Florida Asso-
ciation of Count/es, presented the Board with a copy of Interface, a
Governmental Bulletin, that highlights what took place during the
legislative session. He indicated that during the past week or two he
has been traveling around the State meeting with County Commissions to
report on what the legislature dtd as it related to Issues that were
adopted as priority Issues by the Florida Association of Counties. He
reported that this year there have been revenue Increases which is a
welcome change compared to the last two years. He stated that prac-
tically all the Issues that he worked on for the FAC relating to the
budget were approved. He stated the Surface Water Improvement &
Management Program was increased tn funding from 3 mil/ion dollars
last year to over 1! million dollars this year. He noted that the
Preservation 2000 Program is being funded for the fourth year. He
further indicated that under HRS, the Medically-Needy Program has been
stated that under the Dept. of Revenue, the County Revenue Sharing
dollars are up by about 20 million dollars and the revenues that
Counties will be receiving under the State half-cent sales tax distri-
bution are up well over 100 mi/lion dollars, which should mean signi-
ficant additional revenues due to the growth that ts being seen from
economic activities throughout the State. He stated that with respec-
tive to Pub/lc Defender funding, that funding is up, noting that pro-
Page 9
May 4, 1993
visions for additional positions for Public Defenders have been made.
He noted that there ts also included in the budget, a provision for
Public Defenders to report on the number of conflict cases that there
are, adding that this is a positive step forward. He indicated that
this year the Legislature approved as part of the Growth Management
Bill, authority for counties to impose up to an additional five cents
in local option gas tax to be used specifically for transportation.
He stated that this can be imposed by referendum or by a majority plus
one vote of the Commission. He stated that there is an existing voted
local option gas tax penny which required a referendum and was
reserved exclusively for County road systems, noting that the legisla-
ture changed that this year so that the additional penny can be
imposed by a referendum or by a majority plus one vote of the
Commission. He stated that he hopes that this will provide some
relief in meeting some of the transportation mandates that the
legislature has handed done. He stated that when the Legislature
passed the Growth Management Act in the mid 80's, they made the local
option sales tax available for counties to help meet some of the
infrastructure needs, not Just transportation. He indicated that
counties were only given five years to impose the local option sales
tax and that authority expired this past November. He stated that if
Collier County did not levy that local option sales tax up to that
point, then that ability was lost, but this year the Legislature
enacted that authority so that the counties have an indefinite window
of opportunity to impose the local option sales tax with an approved
referendum. He noted that if the State expands its tax base, the
local option sales tax will apply to that expanded state tax base. He
reported that the Regional Planning CouncilWs authorities were re-
enacted this year with the emphasis being on inter-governmental coor-
dination. He stated that there was a lot of attention focused on the
Solid Waste Bill which was very controversial because of the advanced
disposal fee which is basically a surcharge that goes on certain types
of containers that are not being recycled at a §0 percent rate, which
Page 10
May 4, 1993
means that there will be a one cent fee assessed on plastic and glass
containers. He stated that there was a lot of dispute on this matter
with the end result being that the fee would start in October and 30~
of those revenues would be earmarked for county recycling grants. He
stated that this ts in addition to the recycling grants that the
County is now receiving. He indicated that there is another bill that
will allow County Commissioners to meet with their attorneys in pri-
vate for the purpose of settlement negotiations, pending litigation,
adding that this bill has not been signed as of yet. He stated that
the Public Bid Disclosure Act has become law which was opposed by the
FAC, noting that this bill essentially holds the county liable in the
event that the bid documents do not disclose every fee and every per-
mit. He reported that there was also a ma~or Emergency Management
Bill that was passed this year with regards to disaster response
plans. He stated that there were a couple of items that were disap-
pointments, one of them relates to Administrative charges that the
Department of Revenue is imposing on the County Gas tax, adding that
the Department of Revenue is essentially requiring that the admi-
nistrative cost is funded by a charge on only the County gas tax. He
stated that FAC tried to get a more equitable sharing of the costs
this year, but they did not get very far on this issue. He stated
that the other issue of disappointment ts with regards to the local
government Criminal Justice Trust fund, noting that FAC was trying to
enhance the collection, but it did not become law this year.
The following person spoke regarding this item:
Fred Tarrant
Commissioner Saunders stated that the FAC also f~ghts to make sure
that the State of Florida is fair to the counties, adding that there
are issues that may be somewhat at odds with certain taxpayers groups,
but there are also many issues that are addressed that save taxpayers
dollars. He stated that he feels that FAC does a good ]ob.
DZ~U~SZON ON REPATMENT O1 FUND 160, NARCO ISLAND BEACH
Page
May 4, 1993
Mr. Stowell, representing Mr. Thompson, stated that he ts part of
the 62~ that voted for public beach access when Fund 1§9 was created
and he agreed to pay taxes to fund that public access. He stated
that the beach needs to be better appreciated and better utilized. He
provided the Board with a letter dated April 21, 1993 from Mr.
Thompson regarding Fund 159, Marco Island Beach Renourtshment. He
Indicated that on April 16, 1991, the BCC voted to borrow funds from
Fund 1§9 for turtle monitoring, park ranger costs, and raking the
beachfront with the funds to be replenished when the Bed Tax monies
became available. He stated that the time has arrived and he would
request that the repayment of Fund 1§9 be made.
Tom Conrecode, Director of Off,ce of Capital Pro~ects Management,
stated that he ts waiting for Tourist Development Council (TDC) action
before he can petition the Board to repay Fund 1§9, adding that there
ks an application process that has to be completed and approved by the
TDC.
County Manager Dorrtll stated that there ts a proposal to submit a
grant to reimburse this fund, but ~t ts waiting the final decision, tn
terms of the grant forms of the procedures that the TDC ts going to
use to evaluate any and all grant requests and then make recommen-
dations to the Commission. He stated that this w~ll occur at the June
TDC meeting.
Commissioner Saunders stated that the request of the reimbursement
of Fund 159 ts one that the Commission needs to decide not the TDC.
Mr. Conrecode stated on April 16, 1991, the Commission directed
that Fund 1§9 be reimbursed from Tourist Development revenues. He
said at this point there ~s $§0,000 to be reimbursed.
County Attorney Cuyler stated that the Commission committed to
make the reimbursement. He said the TDC authority ts to make sure
that they make a recommendation to the BCC as to whether the expen-
diture of the monies are appropriate and to follow the Statute and the
Ordinance.
Commissioner Saunders stated that he has no objection to going
Page 12
May 4, 1993
forward with this matter to the TDC, adding that it seems to be a use-
less act. He Indicated that when the BCC requests funding for various
programs, this matter will simply be listed and the TDC will advise.
No action was taken on th~s item.

Mrs. Evelyn Houchens, representing the landowners in Section
stated that this Item ts tn reference to mobile homes in this area.
Mr. Dick Clark, Code Enforcement Director, stated that section 16
ts in the vicinity of the Six-L Farm area. He said that over a period
of time there have been parcels of land that has had mobile homes put
on them without receiving building permits. He said that prior to the
new Land Development Code, the only way the mobile homes could legally
exist would be by a temporary use permit for a three year period if
they were directly related to Agriculture. He stated that many of
these mobile homes did not obtain the permit and are, therefore, tn
violation of the old code as well as the existing code. He indicated
that the property owners are trying to resolve the issue tn as
equitable a manner as possible, noting that Staff would suggest that
they be directed by the BCC to obtain the legal descriptions of the
land that these mobile homes are on and have these property owners
prepare a petition asking for a mobile home overlay. He noted that
the petition would have to be signed by §0 percent plus 'one property
owner and would request that they be allowed to reside tn their mobile
homes as a principle use by obtaining building permits. He stated
that once there is a mobile home over/ay, the rest of the County codes
could be enforced.
Commissioner Saundere stated that he does not feel that there ts
any legal requirement with regards to a petition being signed and
questioned if this ts simply for the purpose of finding out if there
ts a consensus of the people that want this overlay, to which Mr.
23'
Page 13
Clark replied affirmatively.
Mrs. Houchens questioned if the petition is not needed, could the
BCC make a decision this date to grandfather in the existing mobile
homes?
Commissioner Saunders stated that the BCD could direct Staff to
proceed to develop the mobile home overlay for the affected area and
to stay any enforcement actions until after consideration by the BCC
of the overlay.
Commissioner Matthews questioned why the property should not be
zoned residential when the property is being used as residential pro-
perty, to which Mr. Clark responded that the property is agricultural
zoned, noting that most of the lots are not used for agriculture. He
said you can have a primary residence within agricultural zoning,
however, if a mobile home is on the property, it is limited in use for
three years. He stated that if a principle structure is built on an
agricultural piece of property, there is no prohibition as it is an
allowable use.
Current Planning Manager Baginski indicated that there are two
different issues; one is dealing with the zoning and the other is the
division of the property. He said due to the fact that this area is
zoned agricultural, the only way you can get a mobile home in any
district is through a temporary use permit. He said if a mobile home
overlay is approved, it will legitimize the existing mobile homes.
Commissioner Matthews indicated if the County places a mobile home
overlay in the area, there is concern that there will be a lot of ren-
ta~ trailers placed there. She stated that County Manager Dorrill
advised her that a ceiling could be set on the number of trailers that
would be allowed in this section.
County Manager Dorrill stated the procedure has been discussed
with the residents and what the County is attempting to do is permit
and properly zone trailers that are there now, but not allow for an
expansion of trailers.
Ms. Evelyn Houchens stated that there is also a major problem with
Page
May 4, 1993
people dumping in the area. She stated that it Is her understanding
that Waste Management will donate two construction dumpsters, but a
waiver of the dumping fees is needed.
Commissioner Saunders stated the County provides tn various com-
munities a neighborhood clean-up day, adding that they would be
wi/ling to assist tn a clean-up day by waiving tipping fees for a par-
ticular day.

Office of Capital Projects Management Director Conrecode explained
that this item is a recommendation from staff to award the contract
for preliminary engineering for the County beach project.
County Attorney Cuyler recalled that the question that has been
raised is the extent to which the Board of County Commissioners may
contract with Coastal Engineering based on the RFP that was issued In
previous years. He pointed out that Clerk Brock has raised issues
relative to the fact that some of the later engineering services were
not, in his opinion, contemplated by or provided for in the first
contract and, therefore, did not believe the County could enter Into
Page 15
Hay 4, 1993
subsequent contracts.
County Attorney Cuyler advised that his opinion has not changed In
this regard, and noted that he has reviewed the law and believes there
ts nothing precluding the County from entering into subsequent
contracts.
County Attorney Cuyler Indicated that the opinion of Attorney
Ptres, counsel for the Clerk, ts that the Board has the ability to
negotiate and contract for the remainder of the preliminary design
activities, but from then on, he concurs with the Clerk that the Board
does not have the ability to go beyond that and enter into a sub-
sequent contract for additional engineering phases.
Mr. Conrecode stated that the contract was originally developed
contemplating the on-going service relationship beyond preliminary
design. He noted that any of those adjustments may be made if needed
after the legal issues are resolved. He Indicated that some of the
specific items tn Section 2 of the contract relate to additional ser-
vices which are in the body of the standard form contract, but those
Items have not been hatched out to relate them to the specific
contract. He remarked that those items are included in a general way
and the contract provides for them to be reimbursed, tn the event they
are necessary.
County Attorney Cu¥1er reported that the deletion of certain ser-
vices would not cause a reduction in the negotiated contract price
because they are additional services.
Clerk Brock related that he has requested and provided to the
Commission a legal opinion from Attorney Anthony Ptres, of Woodward,
Ptres and Anderson.
Clerk Brock advised that it ts the request of the Circuit Court of
Collier County that the Board not let a contract to exceed the scope
of services, as defined by the preliminary design phase of Page 3 of
the original contract.
Calling attention to various Sections of the contract on Page 3,
Mr. Brock stated that he does not find any supplementation or addendum
OO0,, , 26
Page 16
May 4, 1993
as referenced to be in Paragraph 4 of Exhibit "A". He noted that he
does find addendum/supplementations in Paragraph 2 of Exhibit "A"
which states: "During the preliminary design phase the engineer shall
perform only those elements as listed below .... " He remarked that
those specific services are delineated. He requested that the Board
not let a contract to exceed those services defined in SeCtion 2.3 of
the original contract or in Paragraph 2 of Exhibit "A" of same.
Clerk Brock explained that he has reservations about the provi-
sions of Section 2 of the new contract.
County Attorney Cuyler stated that he understands that staff has
discussed with Coastal Engineering the elimination of anything in
Section 2 that would go beyond the preliminary design.
Clerk Brock reported that he would be happy to sit down with the
County Attorney in an attempt to resolve any problems that are per-
ceived.
At this time, Clerk Brock, County Attorney Cuyler and Attorneys
Pires and Goodlette departed from the meeting to review the contract
and the differences of opinion relating to same.

Captain John May addressed Camp Mayday, a program for kids at risk
and noted that the idea is approximately 227 years old.
Captain May explained that he was contacted for help by the
Juvenile Delinquency Council Task Force. He Indicated that Camp
Mayday was born as a result of addressing this group.
Captain May reported that in his capacity at Naples High School,
where he has n~ne years experience working with kids, at risk, he
speaks daily to students, parents and counselors. Ne revealed that he
hears the cry from mothers, fathers and students for help. He indi-
cated that his program could be categorized as a preventive measure
that would help to prevent these kids from getting into trouble that
Page
May 4, 1993
would lead to Jail time.
Captain May suggested that a committee be established to determine
the avenue to take to place a boot camp into effect for the youth of
Collier County.
Commissioner Volpe stated that he would be happy to put Captain
May in touch with Judge Reese.

Mr. Hardy cited that southern Golden Gate Estates has been plagued
with persons driving to the area and dumping their garbage and trash.
In answer to Commissioner Norris, County Manager Dorrtll explained
that until a management plan ts defined, there will be many
conflicting problems throughout Golden Gate Estates.

Affordable Housing Director Mthaltc explained that a Pocket of
Poverty Grant was signed by the Governor tn July, 1988, which awarded
$1 million to Collier County to assist tn the provision of /ow cost

housing for the community of Immokalee. He reported that an agreement
was entered into between DCA and Collier County in March, 1989 and the
agreement terminated on December 31, 1991 for the use of these funds.
Mr. Mthalic advised that an agreement was entered into with
Collier County Concerned Citizens, Inc. (CCCC) in June, 1989, to
receive a $300,000 grant for the construction of a 24 bed Congregate
Care Facility to be named "Hopewood" and to be located in Collier
Vi//age in Immokalee.
Mr. Mihalic stated in July, 1992, the State Housing Initiative
Partnership Program (SHIP) repealed all existing Pocket of Poverty
legislation. He noted that CCCC ~as failed to provide the housing as
agTeed upon and they desire to terminate the agreement.
Mr. Mihalic reported that CCCC has agreed to repay the $336,295.12
of Pocket of Poverty and Community Development Block Grant funds that
have been used to assist in the construction of a facility. He
requested termination of the agreement, upon return of the grant
funds, and that the Pocket of Poverty Review Committee be directed to
solicit proposals from eligible sponsors, using the original Pocket of
Poverty requirements. In addition, he suggested that the committee
make recommendations to the Board, relative to re-utilizing this
money.

County Attorney Cuyler advised that the Board has the option to
consider Collier County Concerned Citizens, Inc. in breach of the
agreement and receive the amount of money as specified in the
contract and they could transfer the property as they see fit. He
noted that another option would be for the Board to consent to a
transfer to another entity under the same contract.
Page 19
May 4, 1993
Assistant County Attorney Ashton explained that the Board also has
the ability to withhold consent, however, the option would then be to
file suit against CCCC for damages under the contract but they have
no assets. She indicated that another option would be specific per-
formance to require the CCCC to perform under the contract which
they have demonstrated they are unable to do so.
Assistant County Attorney Ashton stated that staff recommends that
the Board distribute the funds in accordance with the repealed
legislation, noting that the Immokalee Friendship House would be a
potential applicant.
Commissioner Volpe remarked that the Commission has approved the
expenditure of $336,295.12 for a particular sponsor (CCCC) and that
investment has to be protected on behalf of the community. He cited
that he is committed to see whether there is a way to fulfil/ the ori-
ginal commitment.
Commissioner Saunders called attention to the default provision on
Page Z? of the Agreement, and noted that it appears that the County is
entitled to reimbursement of the funds.

PASS INLET ~&~HA(I~M~NT PLAN IMPLEMENTATION PROJECT UNDER PRO~ISION~ OF
SECTIOn[ 161.101, PLORIDA STATU~S - ADOPTED AS AMENDED
Tom Conrecode, 0fftce of Capital Projects Director, presented a
request for consideration of funding for the Wiggins Pass Inlet
Management Plan In accordance with Section 161 of the Florida
Statutes.
Responding to Commissioner Volpe, Mr. Conrecode reported this item
does not provide for additional services under the contract with
Coastal Engineering. He Indicated the State sets aside money on an
annual basis and this Is an application for funds that would be pro-
vided in 1994 specifically for beach pass type of pro~ects. He men-
tioned the County has applied in the past and will apply in the
future, although Collier County has yet to receive any funding.

~anaOeeuent Plan I~lenentatlon Project.
Conmtssioner Matthews communicated her concern with the wording on
the application, because it refers to implementation of the Wiggins
Pass Inlet Management Plan, while the Plan does not yet exist.
Mr. Conrecode explained the Plan was started In June, 1992, and
includes three phases; the first phase is the background study and
analysts; a phase two report Is due tn July, 1993, and the phase three
report, which consists of the final recommendations of the Inlet
Management Plan, will include approximately 12 alternatives. He tndI-
31'
Page 21
May 4, 1993
cared some of the alternatives recommend doing nothing with the Pass
and if that occurs, Collier County will not be eligible for the State
funding, because it is provided on a reimbursement basis.
Commissioner Matthews reiterated her concern and referred to page
6 of the Executive Summary, which explains implementation of the Plan
and Indicates work that Is already done, which has not yet been
started.
Commissioner Saunders agreed and suggested language in the resolu-
tion be modified to read, "that the Board of County Commissioners
supports the attached application for funds for the Wiggins Pass Inlet
Management Plan Implementation project, twhich Plan is to be approved
by the County Commission in August of 1993.~" He said a similar sta-
tement needs to be made in the application package.

REC0~ENDATION THAT THE BOARD OF COUNTY C0~ISSIONERS CONFIRM T~
ACTION~ ~IC~ PARTIALLY R~DEEM~D THE PRIOR PKLICAN BAY IMPROVEMENT
DISTRICT ~E~IER 1978 BOND~ IN THE AMOUNT OF 8555,500, AND TO AUT~ORIZ~
ALL N~C~SS~%RT BUDGET A~ TO ACCOMPLISH THIS ACTION - APPROVED
Jim Ward, Pelican Bay Services Administrator, explained in 1979,
the prior Pelican Bay Improvement District issued $3,590,000 worth of
sgecial assessment bonds which were utilized primarily for the
construction of the water management system within that community. He
said the bond documents required that upon completion of the facili-
ties, all excess funds in the construction account be transferred to a
redemption account to redeem bonds early. Additionally, he said, when
that was done in January, 199S, an excess was created in the reserve
account which was also used to call bonds. He indicated at that time,
he did not come before the Board of County Commissioners to ask for
approval of those actions or the requisite budget amendments, and that
is his purpose this date.
Commissioner Saunders noted a letter from the Clerk of Courts
clearly indicates the refunding is to the benefit of the taxpayers and
provides for significant savings.
Clerk Brock explained the law in the State of Florida states the
Clerk expends funds and in this instance, someone other than the Clerk
expended funds without him knowing about it or the Board approving it,
although those actions were taken with good intentions.
ComLtmioner Volpe moved, seconded by Cou~issioner Matthews and
carried unanimously, to confirm the actions which partially redeeBed
the I~tO~ Pelican Bay IBprovement District Series 1978 Bonds tn the
amount of $SSS,SO0, ~ to authorize all necessary budget amendments
to accomplish this action.

This item was heard earl/er in the meeting and continued to this
time.
Tom Conrecode, Off/ce of Capita! Pro~ects D/rector, provtded the
Board with a copy of changes that were made to the contract, following
discussion between Attorney Anthony Pires, Clerk Brock, the County
Attorney's Office, the engineer and his attorney. He noted the
revised items more clearly define only the specific items related to
the preliminary design phase of the project.
Clerk Brock advised the Board that it is his counsel's position,
Attorney Pires, that it would be in compliance with the Consultants~
Competitive Negotiation Act (CCNA) to /et a contract for the prelimi-
nary design phase of this project; however, it is both their opinions
that to let a contract for any future engineering services on this
same project would require going back before the CCNA. Otherwise, he
said, when the Board moves to take action on additional services from
the engineer, the same problem will reoccur as to whether it must go
back out for competitive negot~ation and selection.
Commissioner Volpe communicated hie understanding that the Board
has the authority to let another contract with Coastal Engineering
Consultants for preliminary design, but questioned if the Board is
obligated to award the balance of the preliminary design work under
the original RFP to Coastal Engineering Consultants?
County Attorney Cuyler replied the Board has an obligation to
negotiate the contract, review those negotiations and decide whether
they wish to enter into a contract based on those negotiations.
Clerk Brock asked if it is the opinion of the County Attorney that
those additional phases of the contract, beyond the preliminary design
phase, must also be given to or negotiated with Coastal Engineering
Consultants?
County Attorney Cuyler stated the Board has an obligation to nego-
tiate with Coastal Engineering Consultants unless they represent they
do not wish to do so, which would result in a new RFP.
Clerk Brock reiterated his concern that the same difference of
Page 24
May 4, 1993
opinion between himself and the County Attorney will again occur at
that Juncture.
In answer to Commissioner Constantine, Mr. Conrecode stated the
next step of this project will occur in approximately one year.
County Attorney Cuyler stated the chances of settling this issue
within that time frame are very good, depending on the direction of
the Board.
The following people spoke regarding this item:
Bobby Cadenhead Arthur Neumann
Jon Staiger City Councilman Ron Pennington
Dick Laymon Bill Neron
Dr. Michael Stephen with Coastal Engineering Consultants, Inc.,
communicated the scope of work for this contract, along with related
costs, have been reviewed and approved in publicly advertised
meetings. He said they have proceeded in good faith to work with
County Staff, the beach committee and the Tourist Development Council
and have made numerous informative presentations. He said they have
been on record as the project engineer since 1989 each time the County
submits continuing funding requests to the State.
Commissioner Volpe asked for an explanation of the additional com-
pensation noted on page 33 of the contract.
Dr. Stephen clarified the provision referred to by Commissioner
Volpe does not relate to any construction activities, but only to
those subcontracts which are approved by County Staff that are
necessary to be performed under this contract. For example, he said,
when his firm hires the barge and crane to conduct some of the off-
shore sediment collection, the administrative aspects of that work are
entitled to a 10~ administrative fee, which ls standard language in
all County contracts.
Referring to page 12 of the contract, Commissioner Volpe recalled
previous discussion that the decision regarding equitable adjustment,
if this work goes beyond 12 months, would be left to the Board of
County Commissioners. He asked if Dr. Stephen will accept a modifi-
cation to paragraph 4.3., specifically, that "the CONSULTANT's compen-
35
Page 25
May 4, 1993
sat/on 'may' be equitably adjusted", rather than "shall"?
Dr. Stephen responded in the affirmative.
The following person spoke at this time:
City Councilman Joseph Herms
A lengthy discussion ensued regarding whethe= or not a sand source
identification must be made as part of the preliminary design, and
whether preliminary design itself is necessary to this project.
Answering Commissioner Saunders, County Attorney Cuyler advised
if the County enters into this contract with Coastal Engineering
Consultants and everything remains the same with regard to future
contracts, the Board has an obligation to at least negotiate in good
faith with Coastal Engineering. He said the only way he would be com-
fortable if the Board indicates they do not plan to go forward, would
be for Coastal Engineering to state on the record that they do not
plan to sue the County.
In response to Commissioner Constantine, Dr. Stephen stated if
the subject contract is approved, he will agree not to bring suit
against the County if the selection process is used for future phases
of the work. He indicated his firm is the most qualified, with the
best professionals available for the Job now, and they will only be
better during future negotiations.
Commissioner Constantine suggested as part of this contract, that
four or five clam shell sources be placed on the beach side-by-side
with the upland sand sources, in order to identify the best source.
Dr. Stephen agreed to that stipulation being included in the
contract. He asked for clarification on the scope of this contract
with the changes being made.
Commissioner Saunders listed items on page 36 of the contract,
Schedule "B", Attachment C, that will no longer be included at this
point in time; specifically, A.4.1.1, A.4.1.2 and A.4.1.3; A.4.4.!
will be reduced to SlO,000 and A.4.4.2 will be eliminated.
Commissioner Constantine noted the above changes result in
Schedule "B", Attachment C, being reduced from $386,I00 to approxima-
Page 26

rely $219,000.

sue litigation against the County if the Board elects to go to another
selection process under the Competitive Negotiation Act for any future
phases of this project.
Cowry Attorney Cuyler recalled a modification on page 12 of the
contract, replacing the word "shall" to "may" was previously
discussed.

Office of Capital Projects Management Director, Tom Conrecode,
stated that this hearing ks under Florida Statutes 190 pertaining to
community development districts and the establishment thereof. He
stated that the petitioner has a number of their experts available to
answer any questions. He stated that in reviewing the petition, Staff
has had all their concerns addressed and there is no objection to pro-
ceeding with this community development district.
Assistant County Attorney Richard Yovanovtch stated under Chapter
190, once a Community Development District (CDD) reaches the popula-
tion requirement for incorporation, there is a mandatory referendum
that must be held within the CDD to determine whether or not the
district wants to incorporate. He said the requirement is 5,000
people.
Commissioner Volpe stated that if a community development district
meets the requirements of §,000 people and it decides to incorporate,
and that area becomes another city within Collier County, would that
City then be obligated to continue to pay impact fees to Collier
County as they pull building permits to build within their district?
County Attorney Cuyler stated the District would continue to pay
impact fees for items of a County-wide nature.
Commissioner Volpe stated that at build-out this 2,000 .acres
could have 18,000 people, noting that he would like to be able to con-
tinue to collect impact fees for Parks & Recreation, Library, and Law
Enforcement. He indicated that this is a critical concern to him.
In answer to Commissioner Constantine, Assistant County Attorney
Yovanovich stated a disadvantage of this area being incorporated is
the infrastructure of a CDP that is typically funded by levying a spe-
cia/ assessment which is usually collected on the tax bill. He stated
Page 28
May 4, 1993
that tf the developer should go bankrupt, the tax certificate would be
offered for sale and no one would purchase it, and therefore, the
County would lose its taxes. He stated that the petitioner has recom-
mended that the property owner be required to divide the parcels up
into more manageable smaller tax certificate parcels which should eli-
minate the problem. He stated that another issue was the water and
sewer issue, noting that the County should continue to have a regional
water and sewer system. He stated that a memorandum of agreement has
been reached with the developer/petitioner and the Board of
Supervisors will be asked as one of their first substantial acts to
enter into an interlocal agreement whereby the County is the
water/sewer irrigation purveyor within the Community Development
District.
Ken Van Assenderp with Young, Van Assenderp, Varnadoe & Benton,
P.A., stated under Section 190.047 of the Florida Statutes tt states
that when the threshold of Chapter 165 is met of 5,000 people and the
related density matters, there shall be a referendum of the people who
live within the district boundaries. He said the question on the
referendum will be whether to incorporate. He stated that if the
referendum fails or passes, there is no incorporation, but if it
passes, the referendum states that the requirements of Section 16§.061
will be instituted which is the formation of municipality law. He
stated that after all the procedures of this section have been met, it
may or may not result in a new community. He indicated that at this
point, the County would have the opportunity to participate in this
process and help write the Special Act.
Commissioner Matthews questioned if the customer literature that
is provided to the buyer will spell out that the infrastructure is not
included in the price of the lots and the buyer will be paying for it
over a period of time, to which Mr. Van Assenderp replied in the
affirmative. He noted that Section 190.048 requires that in any
contract for sale, it will state that this district imposes taxes or
assessments or both taxes and assessments on this property and they
Page 29
May 4, 1993
are for the construction, operation, and maintenance of certain basic
infrastructure facilities and are set annually by the Board of the
District, and are in addition to County and all other taxes and
assessments provided by law. He stated that Section 190.009 also
requires that prior to any sale, a full disclosure notice shall be
furnished to future property owners, existing owners, and developers.
He noted that this disclosure notice is a/so sent to the County and
the DCA.

AND SENER F&CILITIES FOR BERESNII~ LAE~S, UNIT
This item was heard in conjunction with Item #8A3. Acting
Community Development Administrator Ed Naguire stated that this item
and the next one deals with the acceptance of water, sewer, roads, and
infrastructure improvements to Berkshire Lakes, Unit Seven. He stated
that it is his understanding that both these items were continued from
the April 27, 1993, meeting to obtain a determination as to whether or
not it was appropriate to tie-in the hurricane shelter requirements
for this development with the acceptance of the infrastructure for
Unit Seven.
Commissioner Constantine stated that according to Ordinance 91-45,
it states that prior to the platting of Berkshire Lakes, Unit seven,
specific hurricane protection and evacuation measures will be agreed
upon between the developer and Collier County. He stated that it also
indicates that the Berkshire Lakes Development Order shall be amended
to include specific language and requirements of the said agreement.
He questioned if specific language dealing with the shelter and eva-
cuation measures is available.
County Attorney Cu¥1er stated that this matter has been researched
and it has been determined that there is nothing that requires this
hurricane shelter to be in Unit ?. He stated that previously the
developer came in and the Board was talking about some alternative
m~t~gatton measures and the Board ultimately decided that no alter-
native mit~gat~on would be accepted and the developer would have to
comply with the development order documents and the PUD documents. He
indicated that the PUD ind~cates that there will be a specific
agreement, noting that to the best of his knowledge, there has not
been an agreement presented as of this date.
Mr. Tom Maloney, representing Coast Communities Corporation,
stated that the Ordinance was adopted in 199! and it contemplated that
Page 31
May 4, 1993
there would be an agreement that addressed hurricane obligations that
would be accepted by the Board in lieu of the hurricane obligation to
construct a 11,000 square foot building. He Indicated that those
discussions and negotiations took place over a one year period and was
brought before the Board on two occasions. He noted that on December
22, 1992, the Board made a motion that the developer be required to do
exactly as the original PUD indicated, which did not mean that there
was to be any t~pe of separate written agreement. He said the
agreement was to do what was originally required.
Commissioner Constantine noted that he and County Attorney Cuyler
listened to the tape of the motion and the intent was very clear which
Indicated that there would be a shelter with a specific plan as to
when and where the shelter would be.
Mr. Eric Young, Community Development Department, stated that when
the PUD amendment was written and adopted there had been no nego-
tiations about hurricane shelters or hurricane mitigation. He stated
that then Staff was given clear direction several times to develop
mitigation language in order to strike all the original hurricane
requirements and replace it with requirements that the SWFRPC and the
BCC would feel were more appropriate and more effective. He Indicated
that over a period of 18 months Staff developed several mitigation
plans, noting that the first plan was brought before the BCC in the
latter part of 1992. He reported that at that time, Staff was
directed to go back and make a few small changes. He indicated that
Staff was directed to find a method to help fund the Emergency
Operations Center renovation, adding that when Staff returned to the
Board with a mitigation plan, it was decided that there was not to be
any mitigation and the petitioner was to stick with the original com-
mitments. He indicated that this means that the developer is required
to build a specific number of square feet for hurricane protection,
adding that the motion of the last meeting was the agreement as
understood by the petitioner and by Staff.
Commissioner Constantine indicated that the Board did not state
Page 32
May 4, 1993
that the agreement was not wanted, the Board simply stated mitigation
was not wanted.
Commissioner Volpe stated that the development order states that
the Developer is to build a hurricane shelter of not less than ll,400
square feet. He questioned if there are any other specific require-
ments with regards to hurricane protection, to which Mr. Young stated
that there are deed restrictions that indicate that people on the
first floor of a multi-floor structure can go to the second floor and
the people on the second floor have to understand as part of their
deed agreement that they would have to allow this.
In answer to Commissioner Constantine, County Attorney Cuyler
stated that based on the reading of the PUD ordinance, there needs to
be an agreement. He indicated that this item could be continued for
two weeks tf an agreement could be worked out and if the Developer
agrees to it and it could then be brought back with the excavation
permit or it could simply be continued for one week to work it out.
He stated that even though the PUD states prior to the platting of
Unit ?, this agreement could be continued for a short period of time.
Com~issioner Volpe stated that the recordation of the plat can be
delayed or the acceptance of the water and sewer can be delayed as
long as the Board has the control.
The following person spoke regarding this item:
Rev. John Ltndell
Commissioner Norris stated that he would like to see the hurricane
shelter as one of the first things completed as part of the
Infrastructure for Unit Seven.
Mr. Maloney stated that he ts recommending that all the planning
be done for the 160 acres and the balance of the DRI requirements be
accounted for prior to the platting of Parcel E. He stated by that
time, the location will be designated and possibly the actual hurri-
cane shelter itself will be built.
Commissioner Constantine stated if the Board can come to an
agreement that states that the shelter will be one of the first
Page 33
May 4, 1993
things done, then he would not have a problem with it.
Commissioner Matthews stated that she would like to know when this
shelter will be built.
Mr. Paul stated that he is being requested to do something that is
extremely impractical. He indicated that the ll,O00 square foot
building has to be a marketable item among the 160 acres, adding that
he is not sure what the market is telling them to do. He stated that
this has to be land planned around the marketplace, adding that he has
to meet the obligation but it is all based on being a marketable item
which is an unknown.
Commissioner Constantine said he is not concerned with a
timeframe, he is concerned with once the development begins that the
shelter will be the first unit completed. He stated that If the
Developer cannot commit to the shelter being one of the first items
completed within the 160 acres, then he cannot vote to approve the
platting.
T~pe ~
Mr. Paul stated that he is requesting that prior to the platting
of Parcel "E", he Come back before the BCO with a plan regarding the
hurricane shelter, adding that this would be within six months.
Commissioner Volpe indicated that there needs to be some type of
penalty in the event that this plan is not brought back before the BCC
by the end of the year.

Transportation Services Administrator Archibald stated that this
Item is a follow up to action taken by the Metropolitan Planning
Organization (MPO) at their meeting of April 9, 1993, regarding the
Fatal Flaw study. He Indicated that there were five alternatives
derived from that meeting along with cost factors, environmental
Issues, and the bridge crosstng Issues. He stated that he ts
requesting that the existing purchase order be increased by the amount
of $3§,000 to allow a traffic revenue and toll study which will pro-
vide Information as to whether or not this project will be feasible as
a toll project.
Commissioner Volpe questioned why this work cannot be done by the
expanded MPO staff, to which Mr. Archibald replied that most of the
base data will be provided by the MPO, which ts reflected in the price
that has been submitted. He noted that a very detailed arterial and
local road analysis will be done in the area of the airport and the
bridge and there will be a lot of man hours Involved in validating the
study. He stated that one purpose of this contract ts to have a suf-
Page 37
May 4, 1993
ficiently complete report in order for a decision to be made with
regards to the feasibility of a toll option.
Commissioner Constantine stated that a letter from CH2M Hill indi-
cates that they will contact the City and County to determine what
information is available, adding that this seems to be a waste of time
and money to have someone from the outside contacting the County staff
to see what is available and then paying them to do that. He stated
that the County will still be using their own man hours to research
what is available.
Mr. Archibald stated that the Naples area transportation model
will be used which the County staff has, to apply it to a very
detailed area to be able to authenticate the trips that are going to
result. He stated that the authentication of that information on both
the arterial network and the city streets is what is going to require
the man hours.
Mr. Archibald stated that Bart, Dunlop & Associates, Inc., is
recognized state wide on toll revenue studies. He stated that he is
looking for a credible report, noting that the City and the County are
not looking to fund this project from any identified revenues other
than from the toll concept.
In response to Commissioner Matthews, Mr. Archibald stated that
Bart, Dunlop & Associates will be doing the modeling work and the
authenticating, as well as supplying the report. He stated that CH2M
Hill has a contract with the City and they have done the economic aha- .
lysis of the five different alignments, and Bart, Dunlop & Assoc., are
going to be doing the traffic and the revenue issues, but some of
their analysis will be done based upon the coat that is being provided
by CH2M Hill.
Philip C. Becket, project Manager from CH2M Hill, indicated that
part of the task will be simulated data that the County staff is deve-
loping, noting that the traffic, the toll and the study period will be
forecast to the year 2010. He stated that monies that are funded for
CH2M Hill is to look at more detailed cost estimates so that there is
Page 38

a better basis of understanding the construction costs that the tolls
and revenues will be relegated against on a long term basis.
Commissioner Volpe stated that without seeing the Fatal Flaw
Study, he is not sure if he is in favor of moving ahead with a study
for an alternate route with a toll facility. He stated that he is not
sure if he wants to go forward with even contemplating another
east/west corridor over the Gordon River at any location other than
one at Golden Gate Parkway.
Commissioner cOnstantine stated that he feels that everyone wants
to move ahead, but he is not sure that the entire $35,000 is
necessary.
County Manager Dorrtll stated that his suggestion is to refer the
matter back to the MPO coordinator to see if the scope can be revised
and the work of the consultants minimized.
Transportation Services Administrator Archibald stated that Staff
is bringing this matter to the Board because they feel that It is
worth the money to have the toll study done because it should produce
some good results.
Commissioner Constantine stated that he is not comfortable with
voting on the issue at this time and after further discussion, it was
the consensus that this item be referred back to the MPO to see if the
scope can be revised and the work of the consultants minimized.

Transportation Services Administrator Archibald explained that
this item deals with Parcel 140, the Stiles PUD on the South side of
Immokalee Road, and a project In which the County acquired 25t of road
right-of-way. He noted that as a result of utilities, a sliver of
approximately 660' of property was still needed. He advised that the
Page 39
Nay 4, 1993
cost of fee simple purchase of this land is $35,000. In addition, he
indicated that there is severance damage involved due to a buffer
requirement which amounts to $25,000.
Mr. Archibald advised that the total amount of the purchase
agreement is $60,000 and staff recommends approval of same.
Mr. Archibald stated that a contract has been negotiated to pro-
vide turn lanes for the same project. He revealed that the County
would construct the developer's improvements for the turn lanes as
part of the four laning. He reported that the cost of this work is
$18,540.26 in addition to ?X for administration and inspection fees
resulting in $19,838.08 accruing to the County.
Nr. Archibald requested that the Board consider both agreements,
recognizing that there is some offsetting affects.
Mr. Archibald affirmed that the developer has made commitments to
provide construction easements at no cost in addition to providing a
right of entry form.

Public Services Administrator Olltff stated that this is a request
for the Board to consider two specific issues. He explained that Lely
Development deeded 4.24 acres to the Gulfcoast Little League tn 1981.
He re~orted that two fie/ds were built on that site in addition to a
two story building which houses a snack bar, storage, and an announ-
certs booth. He noted that this ts the last privately owned Little
League facility in the County.
Mr. Olliff recalled that the Parks and Recreation Capital Plan
calls for the construction of a community park in the South Naples
area and staff ts hopeful that this would be located adjacent to Lely
High School in the Naples Manor area. He remarked that Little League
fie/da would be included tn that park site.
Mr. Olliff advised that a letter has been received from the
Gulf¢oast Little League with a proposal to negotiate the sale of those
facilities to the County.
Mr. Olltff requested that the Board determine whether there is
enough interest to direct staff to negotiate with the Gulfcoast Little
League for the purchase of the two fields.
Mr. Olltff explained that the County has historically provided
maintenance to the facility, uaing an annual agreement with the
League. He noted that there is not currently an agreement, however,
the new fee structure requires a $5.00 per child fee for maintenance.
Re indicated that an agreement ts attached to the Executive Summary
which provides for maintenance and is prorated for the remaining
season.
Commissioner Volpe cited that he is not opposed to relieving the
Little League from some outstanding debt service, but noted $250,000
for the purchase of the site is unfair to the community.
