COLLI~]t BLVD. - COUNTY ATTOKN~Y TO COM~ BACK IN TNO NEEES NITH
ADDITXO~J~ METHODS TO ACQUIR~ PARKING LOT FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC
County Attorney Cuyler advised that last week he was directed by
the Commission to present a two part evaluation with respect to beach
parking at Swallow Avenue and South Collier Boulevard.
County Attorney Cuyler explained that the first part of the eva-
luation is whether the parties are wi/ling to negotiate or discuss
this matter. He indicated that he has received a letter from the
Marco Island Civic Association (MICA), stating they have certain
rights acquired through the PUD and they are unwilling to change their
'position. In addition, he remarked that he is in receipt of a letter
from the attorney representing the Isles of Capri Civic Association.
Mr. Cuyler remarked that the second part of the evaluation is
whether a third party has the right or may acquire rights under a PUD
Ordinance. He affirmed that he was unable to find any research rela-
tive to this point, but noted that his opinion, under the circumstan-
ces As there is a very good likelihood that MICA can acquire rights
under the PUD. He announced that unlike a normal third party
situation where the third party may not be specifically named, there
ia a specific provision in this case for the deeding of a parcel of
property to the Marco Island CivAc Association. He related that the
provision states that the developer will do certain things and certain
rights will accrue to MICA. He declared that he believes that MICA
lay have a cause of action against the County if these rights are
taken away.

,: In response to Commissioner Volpe, County Attorney Cuyler stated
~,'~ If the naJority of the Commission desires to reconsider the PUD, a
,' ' petition to amend the PUD Ordinance would be presented and it would
require four votes to change any provision of same.
Commissioner Saunders recalled when the arrangement was initially
approved for the transfer of the land for a parking lot and changed
the PUD, one of the major concerns expressed was that there was an
easement for access to the beach and It was specifically stated that
there could not be any pub/lc parking lot attached to or in the
ntt¥ of the easement, and if there was, the easement would revert back
to the owner and there would be a parking lot with no access to the
beach. Ha questioned whether the history of Intent by the property
owner not to have a public lot would complicate the legal analysis of
this matter. Mr. Cuyler replied that th~s did complicate his analy-
sis in addition to the fact that the reverter would be removed.
The following persons spoke regarding this
Nancy DeVolder George Keller
George Carse MarJorie Ward
Harry Cowtn Charlotte Westman
Douglas Herbst
Commissioner Volpe remarked that this ts an opportunity to
acquire another beach access point for all the residents of Collier
Cotlnt¥. He indicated that he would like to see staff bring before
the Board an opportunity to acquire this additional beach access for
all the members of the pub/lc.
County Attorney Cuyler suggested that the Commission may wish to
continue this item for a week or two, so that he could evaluate the
Fulftcations of amending the ordinance.
Commissioner Saunders remarked that he feels that the County
Attorney should meet with the Interested parties and report back in
writing with respect to the County's options. He ~ndicated that this
~s an Issue that could result in mil/ions of dollars in potential
liability. He pointed out that the entire Comm~ssion has taken a
strong stand on opening up parking lots and access to the beach.

clause ts removed at the time the property is deeded to MICA.

FACILITIES AT TIG~RTAXL B~ACH
Tom 011iff, Public Services Administrator, commented there are a
total of 189 parking spaces at Ttgertall Beach, with only 39 paved.
He explained the County was not allowed permits to install impervious
materials, adding it took three years to obtain permits for the
limited parking available because of the wetlands nature of the area.
He said the County was told at that time that it would be very dif-
ficult to expand the parking lot, however, there are small upland
areas that may be explored. He asked to reserve the right to bring
back to the Board status reports that will Indicate what difficulties
or what concessions the State environmental regulators are looking for
from the County In return for an ability to expand the parking lot.
Coauatssloner Shanahan said a way must be found to expand the
parking lot. He encouraged the Board to direct Mr. Olllff to explore
what can be done as quickly as possible.
Gil Mueller said he Is a resident of Marco Island, has served on
the Collier County Parks & Recreation Advisory Board and has been
involved for 12 years tn various battles concerning Tigertail Beach.
He concurred that the request to expand parking at TigertaI1 Beach in
the early 1980'a took three years to accomplish. He said it Is tnevi-
Page 8
March 31, 1992
table that expansion must occur and should have been done in the
' Rtd-1980's. He remarked cars start circulating the neighborhood at
11:00 A.M. looking for places to park, and Greyhound buses are
attempting to park on vacant property. He indicated he is very con-
corned that by the time all the hurdles are cleared, it will be years
before the expansion ts accomplished.

Legal notice having been published in the Naples Daily News on
March 12, 1992, as evidenced by Affidavit of Publication flied with
the Clerk, public hearing was opened to consider an Ordinance pro-
viding an exemption to Clam Pass Park for the sale, consumption or
possession of alcoholic beverages under certain cbndittons; a new
agreement which will supersede the Third Amendment to the Escrow
Agreement between Collier County and Association of Unit Owners; an
Amendment to the 1980 Beach Access Facilities Agreement; and an
Amendment to the Clam Pass Park Concession Agreement.
Commissioner Saunders commented the original resolution that was
the basis for thio item has been rescinded by the Board. He referred
to the audience, stating his assumption that they are all in oppost-

tion to this proposal. He suggested it would be appropriate to make a
motion to reject the ordinance for purposes of discussion amongst the
~ubltc.
Commissioner Volpe asked all those in the Board Room in favor of
rejecting the proposed ordinance to stand. He asked that the record
reflect the majority of people tn the room were standing. There were
no persons indicating opposition to rejecting the ordinance.
The fo/lowing people spoke against the proposal, stating there
should be no private activity allowed that will interfere with the
public use of the beach; petitions have been signed by 1,178 people in
opposition; concern with the possibility that a sewer line will extend
through the dunes to the concession area, and no sa~es of alcoholic
beverages should be allowed at any County parks:

~X~HD C. ~ KKPP~SENTING LA PENINSULA KEQUESTING BUILDING PERMIT
· XTE~ION - ONE ~EA~EXTENSION ~ANTED
Attorney Richard Grant advised he is representing Louis J.
Tlmchak, Jr., who is a court agpointed receiver for the La Peninsula
project on the Isle of Capri. He explained five buildings out of a
total of nine have been constructed, specifically, Buildings l, 2, 3,
5 and 6. He said Building 400 is close to completion, Building 700
has been topped out and Buildings 800 and 900 have not been started.
He said the request to extend four building permits concern those
rJO0,, iS'
Page 10
March 31, 1992
buildings. He indicated the La Peninsula project was financed by a
Savings and Loan Association in Arizona who commenced a foreclosure
~utte when the loan went into default In the Fall of 1988. He said
the suite ia still pending close to four years later. He reported
Mr. Timchak was appointed as a receiver with limited authority and
permits were Issued with the expectation that the project would move
along, however, that did not happen. He mentioned the permits were
extended once before in March, 1991, and he is asking for an addi-
tional extension for one year.
Commissioner Shanahan asked if there are any plans to go forward
w~th construction before the litigation ie finalized? He said the
buildings are a disgrace and worsening every day.
Attorney Grant responded his client has been attempting to get the
Court to give him the authority to finish the project, and the lending
institution is amenable to his doing so. The problem, he said, is the
owner has resisted that effort, therefore, the Court has been reluc-
tant to give that authority due to the pending litigation.
Commissioner Volpe communicated an issue that needs to be resolved
~s whether the drawings for these buildings now comply with the new
Southern building codes. He said as a condition to extensions, the
Board has required modifications be made to come into compliance. He
aa~d another issue ts that building permits were pulled and impact
fees paid two years ago on this project. He advised another condition
of extension will be to pay whatever the increase is in impact fees.
Attorney Grant remarked two of the building perm/ts pertain to
buildings not yet begun and in terms of changing the design to accom-
modate changes in the code, he assumes that will not be a problem.
However, he said, one building is very close to being finished, and he
ia concerned that the requirement to conform to any changes in the
code may require substantial retrofitting. He asked the Board to con-
aider not p/acing that requirement on the two buildings currently
under construction.
In response to Commissioner Volpe. Community Development Services
March 31, 1992
A~hainistrator Frank Brutt replied the project must follow the han-
dicapped code as it is in existence. He explained there are criteria
relative to buildings under construction and buildings almost
completed. He indicated the buildings must satisfy the code as it is
in existence this date.
Co~uaisstoner Shanahan asked Mr. Brutt for his opinion on the
tion.
Mr. Brutt stated his recommendation is to allow a one year exten-
sion. He said it would be preferable to allow the buildings to be
completed, rather than tear them down.
Commissioner Shanahan suggested the Board grant the one year
extension and stressed that another extension should not be con-
midered.

Tom Olliff, Public Services Administrator, advised the Board that
the engineer from Wilson, Miller, Barton & Peek, Inc., is in atten-
dance to answer any questions from the Board. He recalled the water
line was contemplated as part of this project at its inception. He
said several different ways have been investigated to get water and
power down to the end of the boardwalk. He noted the issue is
generally the size of the line, which is dictated by how much water is
needed at the end, in terms of gallons per minute, to meet fire flow
requirements. He mentioned there are several options to choose from,
adding the recommendation for an eight-inch line was presented to the
Board in the Summer of 1991, when the Board granted a Costal
Construction Setback Line variance for this construction project. He
said that option was chosen because it is in the long and short term,
Page 12
March 3~, ~992
:the most cost effective way to get water to that area. Re cautioned
against making a decision about this particular water line in a way
that would restrict any future proposals of the Registry Resort. He
indicated this decision is completely different from anything the
Association of Unit O~ners ever proposed. He said the proposed eight-
inch line must be tied into the closest water available, which is
through the City of Naples. He advised the City Council is scheduled
for a second public hearing on an ordinance which would allow an
/nter-connection between the County's Clam Pass Boardwalk water line
ARd the City's water syst¢.m. He indicated his expectation of approval
from the City.
Commissioner Volpe inquired if the size of the pipe is what is
required to service the existing facility and any contemplated add/-
.<,. t/on to the Clam Pass Park?
M/ks Kennedy with Wi/son, Miller, Barton & Peek, Inc., responded
AR eight-inch line has been the requirement since 1987. Ne mentioned
the Registry issue is entirely separate and never came into con-
8iderat ion.
County Manager Dorrill mentioned discussion has taken place that
the fire flows can be accomplished through some other means. He said
the North Naples Fire District has indicated some type of storage tank
facility with a fire pump may be considered. He asked if that possi-
bility was part of the original preliminary engineering and if so, was
the s/ze of a storage tank facility and fire pump as well as an
electric line Investigated?
Mr. Ker~nedy recalled that was considered as one of the three
options Investigated in 1988, and it was decided to choose the larger
line /n order that no operation or maintenance expenses would be
/ncurred for a booster pump.
Co~mtssioner Volpe asked if this project is fully funded to handle
the construction if the City Council approves the proposal?
Mr. Olliff responded one-half the funds are budgeted tn the Parks
& Recreation Improvement Fund, and $?5,000 is in escrow from the
Page 13
March 31, 1992
of the hotel.
)~"' County Manager Dorrill remarked he is not confident the City
Council will approve this proposal. He mentioned a petition has been
filed against the County's construction permit and, in his opinion,
the opportunity to construct a potable water line this year is remote.
Ne communicated the contract has been bid and final deadline for
completion of construction is May let. He reiterated as a result of
the delay on the part of the City in processing the request as well as
not knowing the nature of the complaint against the extension, the
County may not be able to complete the project this year.
Answering Commissioner Volpe, Assistant County Attorney Cronin
stated the easement acquired from the Naples Cay specifically excludes
sewer in this area. He said the easement is for water, telephone and
electric utility only.
Commissioner Volpe commented there is no way, then, of getting a
sewer line to Clam Pass Park. He indicated Wilson, Miller, Barton &
Peek, Inc. has not done an assessment of the septic system recently.
He said he has seen reports that suggest that there may be modifica-
tions needed on the septic system. He asked if Staff has investigated
that situation?
Tom Conrecode, Capital Projects Management Director, replied Staff
has looked into the issue. He said there will be a problem if a
restaurant is built in that area because the current facility will not
~upport a restaurant of any size.
BAll Branan, representing the Conservancy, recalled Resolution
91-2 requires that an alternative study be done and that the peti-
tioner come back to the Board of County Commissioners with an economic
alternative study, both of the dune system and of the boardwalk
~stem. He said it also directed the petitioner to seek permits for
both routes. He remarked to his know/edge, the petitioner has not
completed those requirements. He added it seems a decision is being
made without the requested and necessary information.
Mr. Kennedy stated during the Coastal Construction Line Variance
Page ! 4
March 31, 1992
i~i'hearing, tt was determined to proceed with the beach route, which was
the same determination made in 1986.
Barbara Bova remarked if a restaurant is not going to be con-
sidered, there is no reason to make any changes. She reported asking
the Fire Marshal if there is a cheaper way to accomplish the task
without destroying the dunes and the conclusion was the need for a
pressurized water tank with a pump and an electric line. She said the
County would save much money if common sense is used.
Commissioner Seunders asked if the County is required to permit
construction of a third pod by the Registry?
Assistant County Attorney Weigel explained the third pod ts a
requirement specifically recognized in the third and fourth amendments
to the 1983 Beach Access Facilities Agreement. He said the Registry
interests, the Association of Unit Owners, is responsible for one-half
the cost of water line as well as responsibility for the full cost of
constructing a third pod. He said In 1988, they placed $[§O,000 in an
escrow account held by the County, $75,000 of which is earmarked as
security for the third pod construction. He remarked the escrow
agreement has been amended twice, purely ~n terms of extending the
time beyond the original two year agreement. He said if the escrow
agreement which will expire on April 30, 1992, is not renewed, the
$150,000 and all accumulated interest will revert to the County for
its own purposes whatsoever.
Co~missioner Saunders asked if the County is in breech of the
agreement by failing to permit construction of needed facilities for
the pod, to which Assistant County Attorney Weigel responded in the
ii, negative.
Commissioner Volpe questioned if Staff is planning to bring back
to the Board a proposed amendment to the agreement to extend the time
for an additional year for construction of the third pod?
Assistant County Attorney Weigel indicated that is the intent,
because it maintains the status quo, interest continues to build and
the obligations remain intact that the Registry be responsible for
Page [5
March 31, 1992
;~construction of the third pod or pay the money in its place, aa well
as continued responsibility for paying one-half the expenses of water
and sewer.
County Manager Dorrtll commented he will keep the Board advised of
any developments regarding this issue.
This being a discussion item, no action was required.

~ EASEMENTS; AND RESOLUTION 92-201 RE TEMPO]~A~Y CONSTRUCTION
EA~ITS - FOR CONSTRUCTION OF TRANSPORTATION IMi~ROVEMENT$ TO RADIO
ROAD ~ AIr, PORT ROAD TO SANTA BARBARA BOULEVARD - ADOPTED
Transportation Services Administrator Archibald presented three
~- resolutions for acquiring right-of-way for the Radio Road project. He
said each resolution reflects a review, study and plans that indicate
. the appropriate road alignment and lane locations. He said they also
address long-range planning, the need for future capacity, an analysis
of environmental and water management factors, cost variables and con-
sideration of public safety and welfare. He indicated the resolutions
involve three different elements of the right-of-way needs. He spe-
cified the first resolution concerns primarily road right-of-way,
drainage and maintenance easements regarding Parcels 114, 115, 116,
117, 118, 122 and 123. He said the second resolution involves Parcels
.$: 137, 138 and 139 for drainage structures with a value of $2,500. He
~' reported the third resolution deals with nine parcels needed only as
construction easements to build the new lanes and new system. He said
those are Parcels 204, 206, 207, 221, 225, 226, 22?, 228 and 231, with
~.,. & total value of $56,100. He commented Staff is attempting to acquire
?" these easements through gift or purchase, but if facing an impass,
~!: will proceed with condemnation action.
In response to Commissioner Volpe, Transportation Services
A~inistrator Archibald stated six additional easements may be
necessary, which will complete the amount of parcels needed for this
~';' project. He stated, however, Staff is attempting to redesign certain
:~% segments which may result in deleting the need for at least four of
Page
March 31, 1992
~,the six remaining easements.
' Co,missioner Shanahan asked for a projected completion date for
the Radio Road project?
Transportation Services Administrator Archibald indicated Staff
expects to go through the bid process in April or May, return to the
Board of County Commissioners in June or July and have construction
underway by August or September of this year. He said this represents
a 20 month construction timetable, and the project is anticipated to
:': be completed in 1994.

~ats Boulevard north to Immokalee Road. He Indicated this Item breaks
the contract up into tWO phases. He noted the first phase ts to
proceed with preliminary work needed to establish surveys and on-the-
~round data of the roadway and drainage facilities, establish a right-
of-way map for future acquisition and tie down what the environmental
permitting requirements will be. He mentioned Staff refers to this as
Phase II-A. He concluded Staff's recommendation ts for the Board to

"A" attached to the Executive Summary, which identifies that the
amount of yard waste collected in March averaged 172 tone per day. He
said the last combined collection in December, 1991, averaged 163 tons
per day. He noted, therefore, that the basis of projections made that
this material constitutes roughly 10~ of waste is correct, although
that figure may change as the season progresses. He mentioned having
received approximately 1,100 calls from citizens, of which 242 were
very specific and either requested an increase in the yard trash
collection frequency, or a restoration of the abandoned once monthly
garbage collection. He reported 54~ of residents put out yard waste,
leaving 46~ putting out garbage only. He said Exhibit "B" is the
letter sent to the Legislature requesting an amendment to the Solid
Waste Act to reduce the prohibition of yard waste in a lined cell from
the required 100~ to between 80-90~. He indicated that will allow the
County to make its own decision as to the most cost effective or effi-
cient way for Collier County to dispose of that waste. He reported if
an amendment is made in the requirements, thu suggestion of Staff is
to wait until that is completed to make any changes. He mentioned the
cost to de-bag was underestimated, and Staff is working with the
Department of Environmental Protection (DER) to provide an alter-
native. He stated Exhibit "C" shows the annual increase in garbage
tonnage on & monthly basis coming from res~dential units. He remarked
~f over the course of a year Staff notes that yard waste fluctuates
substantially, it ~8 conceivable that certain of the collector's
trucks may be allocated on a more frequent basis. He added, however,
there ~s insufficient information at the present time to make any
changes. He continued, stating Exhibit "D" identifies how other com-
Page 19
March 31, 1992
'~,!'~nmitles have addressed the problem, and the costs they have added to
provide for a separate yard waste collection. He said it also iden-
tifies the total annual cost per household in those communities. He
said looking at the alternatives, Staff recommends Alternative #1,
which is the current program, be retained for the present time until
tt is known what Legislative changes are enacted. He said Alternative
· 2 is for those who may need more frequent yard waste disposal, the
County can provide punch cards to allow them to take the material to
the landfill or transfer stations themselves. Alternative #3, he
slid, ts to meet with the franchisees and negotiate a separate rate
for a once weekly yard waste collection, and Alternative #4 would be
instituting a rate for people to voluntarily use an additional yard
waste collection. He commented Alternative #§ suggests providing two
yard waste collections per month and abandon another garbage collec-
tion. He advised A~ternative #5 is the last thing he would recommend.
Commissioner Volpe asked if any consideration was given to giving
up one of the four recyclable collections to add an additional yard
waste collection?
Mr. Fahey reported the difference in trucks used to collect those
~atertals would preclude that suggestion. He explained the franchisee
rtms seven special trucks to collect recyclables and only the trucks
used for garbage is able to collect this type of material.
Commissioner Shanahan communicated he has received several
complaints regarding residents bringing their own debris to a transfer
station. He mentioned Lee County has a very effective program, called
"One, One and One", which is one garbage, one horticultural and one
recyclable pick up per week. He asked if that possibility has been
considered?
Mr. Fahey responded the ratio of ward waste to garbage is approxi-
· ~tely 90 tons of garbage to 10 tons of yard waste. He said if the
activities are split into equal parts, the ward waste trucks can
acco~plish their work in three days, but the garbage collection trucks
would have a double load on their days of collection.
Page 20
March 31, 2992
Couissioner Shanahan indicated some of the problems being relayed
i.'to him involve leaving the horticultural waste out for three weeks
: when homeowners associations do not allow it to be placed out for pick
up before 5:00 P.M. of the day before collection.
Mr. Fahey stated there are alternatives, one of which is the
potential for on site composting. He said a second suggestion is that
i..~ over time, the adjustment of doing trimming and cutting in the period
iMediately prior to the collection would reduce the storage problem.
Commissioner Hasse stated the problems are so severe that the
Board ~st look at adding another horticultural pick up without
reducing the garbage collection.
County Manager Dorrill cautioned that in order to increase the
mmo~tnt of collections, there will be an associated increase in the
m&ndator¥ garbage bills.
Commissioner Saunders commented Alternative #4 would be a choice
for those wishing additional services.
Mike Kennedy, General Manager with Waste Management, Inc.,
explained this is a matter of having compatible equipment to
accomplish what the Board is suggesting.
Commissioner Volpe suggested the Board retain Alternative #! while
considering Alternative #2 to give those who have an excessive amount
of yard waste the opportunity to take it to the landfill at no cost to
them.
Mr. Fahey advised the plan for those who chose that option, is
that they bring in proof of having paid their annual garbage fee. He
said at that time, Staff would issue them a card which would allow
them to dispense with their yard waste at no additional charge.
Commissioner Shanahan concurred adding, however, he would like to
~nvestigate Alternative #4 as well.
In response to Commissioner Volpe, Mr. Kennedy responded that his
[~:~' company is willing to consider all options. He mentioned as a rule of
thtt~b, collections on a monthly basis can probably be done cheaper
once per week, because if vast amounts need to be picked up on one
Page 21
March 31, 1992
day, more equipment and manpower is needed.
Commissioner Saunders asked if Waste Management will be able to
pick up horticultural waste once per week as well as the garbage?
Mr. Kennedy replied that will not be possible without additional
equipment.
~.~ . Fred Marvin stated the "One, One and One" Program is the least
~!: confusing.
Chester Dobeck commented there must be an alternative to the once
per month yard waste pick up, which will be Insufficient In the rainy
season.
Robert Gresham recommended the Board explore the "One, One and
One' Program. He said he has no place to store his bags of yard trash
and does not have a truck to transport it himself to the landfill.
John Keschl suggested that pick-up of recyclables is not necessary
.:: more than once every two weeks.
Om~/maioner Sh~ ~oved, seconded by Co~mieeloner Saundere, to
oo~t~ Alternative ~1 while investigating Alternatives ~2 and ~4 and
the 'O~e, One ~nd One' Progrmm.
In response to Commissioner Shanahan, Mr. Fahey stated he will
~:: attempt to report back to the Board within two or three weeks.
Commissioner Saundsrs referred to Exhibit "D" of the Executive
· -.Summary, which lists several communities and their schedules of gar-
bags, recyclable and yard waste pick up. He said Collier County has
-. the least number of yard waste pick ups, and the rate schedule may
need to be adjusted to Increase those collections. He asked that
those figures be included In the requested report.
Upon call for the question, the lotion carried 4/0.

Fred Bloetscher, Assistant Utilities Administration, communicated
that this is a discussion item that the Board requested as well as the
J residents within the North Naples Utilities service area, concerning
the North Naples Utility Service Transition Agreement entered into on
June 18, 1991. Ne reviewed that the objective of this Agreement is to
trallsition that system from its current private sector utility statue
to the County system. He stated that he gave the Board an outline
{copy not provided to the Clerk to the Board) and noted that he has
several exhibits which the Board has miniature versions of (copy not
provided to the Clerk to the Board).
Mr. Bloetscher discussed that the majority of developments in
Collier County recoup their cost of providing interim water and sewer
:service by including it in the lot sale price.
In providing some history of the North Naples Utility System, Mr.
Bloetscher discussed the fo/lowing:
Quail Creek Estates was the first development in this area and
was approved as a rezone. The first few years on that system impact
~(' fees were paid to the County and were refunded for 1987.
Quail II was approved tn 1982.
In response to Commissioner Volpe, Mr. Bloetscher confirmed that
t~tlder the CIE Element, the Master Plan provided for a water line to be
brought along Valewood Drive and the County's plan was to take over
the system within this service area. Ne added that the Master Plan
called for this system going out of existence, but did not address how
! to accomplish this.
Mr. Bloetscher commented that the question of litigation over the
sal'vlce area has been avoided, as there is a series of undefined ease-
~ents and water lines for the Interconnect, and nothing was conveyed
w~thin the water plant site to the County or any other piping schemes
that existed there.
Mr. Bloetscher pointed out that there are a number of benefits to
' the North Naples customers, one issue being that the County's rates
~i with the increase that was approved last year are approximately
Page 23
March 31, 1992
eighteen dollars less than is currently being charged for 10,000
gallons of water. He stated that typically there is a fluctuation of
rate increases that occurs with private sector utilities, however the
County system has had one rate increase tn five years, which suggests
:. that tt is a fairly stable system.
~'~t~ · Concerning water quality, he indicated that the County is in
:i' compliance with the Safe Drinking Water Act.
'~. ' Mr. Bloetscher commented that the Board made the provision when
l~ast and South Naples connected with this system that impact fees
could be financed.
Mr. Bloetscher detailed that within the County there ars 30,000
customers, with 500 in North Naples and a potent/al to add more people
to the system to spread costs.
Referring to a large diagram, Mr. Bloetscher noted that the
interim utility status exists tn the PUD documents, in special
legislation for the District, and in the development ordinances.
He
reviewed that this system is not regionally a utility system as
defined In the County Ordinances, and only the County and City System
are defined as regional, and added that the regional facilities are
paid by Impact fees.
In response to Commissioner Saunders, Mr. Bloetscher specified
that the sewer impact fee for a two bathroom house ts $1,340, the
water Impact fee is $900.
Richard Yovanovlch, Assistant County Attorney, read a list of cre-
: danttals for Mr. Jake Varn, legal counsel and consultant with the /aw
firm of Carlton, Fields.
Commissioner Volpe stated that when this Issue was first con-
mtdered, the Board of County Commissioners determined that because of
the importance of the Issue it Is Important to engage the services of
an outside legal counsultant who ts an expert in the field; he com-
~ented that Mr. Yarn is not in contact with the Utilities Department
and was retained to analyze the Issues that have been Identified by
Staff and the Property Owners Association.
Page 24
March 31, 1992
Jake Varn with Carlton, Fields, recalled that he has reviewed the
North Naples Utilities Service, which included approximately 80 docu-
ments, including the Agreement. He stated that he compiled an opinion
letter (copy not provided to the Clerk to the Board) which dealt with
three questions.
The first question was whether or not the customers currently
being provided service by the North Naples Utility should be required
to pay an Impact fee when they are tied in. Re reported that they
should, because the Ordinance requires it and any new customer that
will be utilizing the system should be paying his or her fair share.
He indicated that the County would be at risk if an Impact fee was
not charged, because then all the other new users would say they were
entitled to equal protection under the /aw.
In response to Commissioner Volpe, Mr. Varn confirmed that this is
m ~ermanent utility, not an interim utility, and that it ts controlled
by a County Ordinance. He disclosed that an argument was made
regarding the Public Service Commission's determination that North
Naples Utility is a permanent utility; that had little meaning or
bearing on the County's interpretation of Its documents, because it's
the County's Ordinances, the County's definitions, and as long as the
Count], has a reasonable determination, the courts are going to uphold
this. He considered that if a PSC document were being construed,
their definitions would prevail, and tn this instance we are dealing
with a County Ordinance and the County's interpretation ts what the
courts should defer to.
Co~misstoner Volpe questioned whether the people who have paid an
t~act fee in a different context to a different entity were entitled
to a credit. Mr. Varn explained that the people that are served by
North Naples Utilities paid an Impact fee that went to that utility
system to pay for the capital Improvements, and said that no credit
would go toward the County's Impact fee; if they paid for some tmpro-
~ vsments that fall under the definition of being part of the regional
Page 25
March 31, 1992
· ~tem, then they would be entitled to a credit.
Mr. Varn reported that the second question is whether or not the
Co~lllt~ could require the North Naples Utilities to convey to the
County at no cost, certain assets - waker lines, easements, s~tes or
th~ngs of this nature. He concluded that North Naples Utilities could
not be compelled to do that, and he could not find any documents where
they agreed to do that.
Commissioner Saunders expressed that when he requested this Ande-
pendent evaluation of the County's acquisition of these facilities,
his primal~/ concern was that something was not overlooked in terms of
what the developers' obligations were.
Mr. Varn responded that question #3 deals with this ~ssue, on
whether the County could require either the developers or their
succesaors-in-lnterest to be responsible for lmprovements. He
concluded that there ks not basis for this, because the improvements
betng made all fall tn the category of being necessary for the
regional system and are not in the category of on-site internal types
of improvements.
Mr. Varn sald that If you went after the developers or their
· ucceesors-tn-tnterest lncludtng the people who bought lots, you would
In effect be asklng them to pay twice.
In concluslon Mr. Vain su~artzed that the documents consistently
state that the developer ts responslble rom on-site, and ~f it ~s off-
slte ~t becomes part of the regional system and the County's respon-
sibility.
Co~lsstoner Volpe questioned MF. Vain If tn hls exam~natlon of
~he va~lous documents If he had dete~mlned whether the develope~ was
obllgated to mdvlse purchasers within these va~lous subdlvl$lons of
rheim obllgatton to pay an lmpact fee when connection to the ~egtonal
wastewate~ system occurred. M~. Varn responded that his ~ecollectlon
~s that the do~ments clearly stated that the purchasers must be
advised.
In s~ary, he no~ed ~ha~ one o~ ~he questions raised
Page 26
March 31, 1992
Value that the County Staff had put on certain improvements is
approximately 8900,000 and under the contract with North Naples
Utilities they were paying 1.425 million dollars. He expressed that
tn this process of eminent domain, the Florida Law affords providing
the landowner with attorney's fees and costs and tn most eminent
do~ain cases they have nothing to lose.
Mr. Yarn said that the decision to enter into the Agreement is a
mixed legal business Judgment decision, and hts view ts that it ts a
reasonable decision.
Timothy Russell, speaking for the residents of the quail Creek
area and Longshore Lakes Residents Association, referred to a Document
Package (copy not provided to the Clerk to the Board}.
Mr. Rllssell read from an alleged article in the Naples Daily News,
a letter dated September 6, 1991 from Fred Bloetscher, and a list of
questions that the independent legal counsel was asked to address. He
expressed that It Is his opinion that Mr. Yarn did not thoroughly
investigate this matter.
Mr. Russell stated that it is his opinion as well as the persons
he le speaking for, that a second, repeat impact fee As not owed. He
~', noted that the County ts basing its proposed assessment on Ordinances
· 90-86 and 90-8? and read a portion of those Ordinances.
Mr. Russell referred to Florida Public Service Commission Order
#16496 dated 8/20/86, which he quoted from and indicated that it as
Document F within his Document Package. He referred to FPSC Order
:"~' #17~87 which he indicated is Document G within the Document Package.
" Ils submitted that although the Transition Agreement stipulates the
Utility should be construed as an interim facility, it is not an
lntertu system.
Mr. Russell questioned whether the North Naples Utilities is a
per~nent utility as designated by the Florida Public Service
Commission.
Mr. Russell stated that at the time these developments began, the
County was not prepared to offer sewer and water service and the deve-
000 118
Page 27
March 31, 1992
loper created his own facilities with the County's approval. He
stated that impact fees have been paid to North Naples Utilities, and
the County is essentially purchasing North Naples Util/ties, its
&eeete and customer list.
He read from an alleged legal op/nion written in 1986 by the then
Assistant County Attorney Bruce Anderson (copy not prov/ded to the
Clerk to the Board).
He read from the Longshore Lake PUD Document, which he referred to
I Document J in the Document Package. He stated that it was agreed
that the customer list would be turned over to the County when it took
over service and to connect to the County's facilities, and to
dismantle the current facilities at no cost to the County. He
inquired why then the County was offering to pay 1.42§ million dollars
to the North Naples Uti/it/es.
' Ne read from a list compiled by Fred Bloetscher of estimated costs
~nd referred to it as Document L within the Document Package.
He read from the Independent counsel's review and referred to it
Is Document N within the the Document Package.
He referred to the minutes of the discussion of Ordinances 90-86
and 90-87 as Document 0 within the Document Package, and related that
a precedent was established in exempting prior customers from the City
of Naples and Golden Gate, as well as prior customers from Pelican
Bay, The Glades, Lely and Foxfire for a variety of reasons.
He stated his final concern ts procedural and read from Florida
Statute 125.3401 which he referred to as Document P of the Document
Package. He stated that this issue was brought before the Board as an
&gend& item under the County Manager's report and not a public
hearing. He stated that the June 18, 1991 Agenda is Document Q of the
Document Package.
He concluded that he understands the County's efforts to provide a
ttnifted approach to a regional water and sewer system, but that it is
obvious that careful consideration was not given to this specific
transition, which is filled with serious procedural oversights and
Page 28
March 31, 1992
poor management decisions. He stated that the customers are seeking
an official notice In the Public Record which acknowledges that all
itructures that were customers of North Naples Utilities prior to June
18, 1991 ara exempt from a new impact fee from the County as a result
of this transition of service.
In response to Commissioner Volpe, Mr. Yovanovtch addressed the
procedural issue, and clarified that the Statute does not state that
it ~nlst be an advertised public hearing. He pointed out that the
Agenda was published In the newspaper and public Input was welcomed
concerning the Transition Agreement, and he stressed that it is the
opinion of the County Attorney's office that the requirements of the
· Statute have been met.
Attorney Fred Hardt with the /aw firm of Hardt & Stewart, set
forth that he ts representing the Quail Creek area residents. He
referred to a set of documents which he stated he has provided to each
Board member and provided to the Clerk for the record.
Mr. liardt stated that It was his opinion that the adoption of the
Transition Agreement does not conform with the requirements of Section
125.3401 of the Florida Statutes, Exhibit B of his package, since this
item ts considered under the County Manager's report and not as a
public hearing. In response to Commissioner Volpe, Mr. Hardt stipu-
lated that if this were found to be true and correct, the Transition
Agreement would be void. He stated that Mr. Yovanovtch's reasoning
ignores the clear language of the Statute, which specifically requires
a public hearing. He cited the case of Bal Harbour Village vs. State
EX Rel Gtblin and noted that the City Council, In this case, had
failed to give notice and hold a public hearing.
He expressed that this acquisition should be considered a
purchase, not a transition, because of the following elements In the
· Agreement:
the County ts paying 81,425,000;
the County grants to North Naples Utilities a first right of refu-
sal to repurchase the plant site at appraised value;
3e
the Transition Agreement requires that title Insurance be provided
by the North Naples Utilities Insuring legal title to the plant
site; ·/ O00F'~[1Q Page 29
March 31, 1992
the Transition Agreement requires conveyance of legal title to the
water treatment plant site and conveyance of easements for a
master pump station and other necessary easements;
the Transition Agreement provides that the conveyance documen-
tation shall include Affidavits as to title, Bill of Sale,
Warranty Deeds, Easements to assure marketable, clear and unencum-
bered title to the subject utility facilities and real property;
the Transition Agreement contains a noncompete clause, in whlch
North Naples Utilities agrees not to compete with Collier County
in the future;
7. the Transition Agreement provides that the customer lists of North
Naples Utilities be turned over to Collier County.
Mr. Hardt read from page 6 and 7 of his set of documents and exhi-
bits. He stated that this is acknowledgement by the Utility that they
ara the successor to the developer.
Mr. Hardt read from a Sewer Facilities Agreement in his set of
documents which he referred to as Exhibit G, made in 1987, which shows
that there is no obligation to pay the 1.425 million dollars.
He questioned the Just/f/cation of the 1.425 mi/lion dollars,
since an appraisal was never completed.
He stated that the residents of Quail Creek area development pre-
vic%rely paid a connection charge or an impact fee at the time that
their building permits were issued by Collier County.
..'~? He referred to Exhibit K within his set of documents, and pointed
out that the Public Service Commission declared the water and sewer
facilities for North Naples to be permanent.
He stated that from the perspective of the residents of Quail
Creek this is nothing more than a change in the provider of the ser-
vice. He concluded that it seems unfair to make the existing resi-
dents of Quail Creek area pay for a new system, when they have already
paid for the old system under the Jurisdiction and rules of the
Florida Public Service Couission.
Coatsstoner Saunders commented that you cannot have it both ways,
and expect to have service by the County and not have impact fees. He
stated that the County can attempt to undo the Agreement with North
Naples Utilities and then allow them to continue to service the com-
muntty.
He discussed that in his opinion, the only way to avoid
Page 30
March 31, 1992
another impact fee is not to proceed with the Agreement and also to
· ly~rsue the dedication of the facilities at no cost to the County. Mr.
!i. Hardt concurred that the Agreement should be rescinded and the
County
should demand that the facilities be turned over without cost and with
no i~q~act fees.
In response to Commissioner Goodnight, Mr. Bloetscher confirmed
that the utility lines that exist within the rights-of-way in
Longshore Lake and Quail II have been granted to the County and are
being leased back to North Naples Utilities because the County is not
p~pIng water through them.
