County Manager? MR. OCHS: Yes, ma'am, would you like to begin with the Pledge of Allegiance this evening? CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: I would. MR. OCHS: Thank you. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: County Manager, would you lead us in the pledge? MR. OCHS: Yes, ma'am. (Pledge of Allegiance was recited in unison.) MR. OCHS: Commissioners, this is the second of two statutorily required advertised public hearings to adopt your fiscal 2013 -2014 county budget. At this point I will turn the proceedings over to Mr. Isackson, unless the Board has any questions. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: Does the Board have any questions? Commissioner Henning? COMMISSIONER HENNING: This is pretty much a slam dunk, right? MR. ISACKSON: Well, Commissioner -- COMMISSIONER HENNING: Is this budget going to swim? MR. ISACKSON: It won several Olympics, so I think it will be CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: Mark has done an excellent job, and so has staff in compiling this.

Baseball. MR. ISACKSON: Yes. Page 2 September 19, 2103 MR. OCHS: That's right. COMMISSIONER FIALA: Is there a baseball game going on? COMMISSIONER HENNING: Tomorrow at noon, yes.

Item #2A FY 2013 -14 MILLAGE RATES AND INCREASES OVER THE ROLLED BACK MILLAGE RATES — DISCUSSED MR. ISACKSON: Good evening, Commissioners, those in the audience and those that may be watching on Collier TV. This is the second and final public budget hearing on your FY 2014 budget. Commissioners, once again we have a fairly rigid agenda. There's several things that I have to get on the record. I've scripted most of this out, so if you bear with me I'll begin. Pursuant to Florida Statutes, Chapter 200 governing the annual Truth in Millage process, an advertisement for this hearing was published in the Naples Daily News on Monday, September 16th, 2013. This hearing date was also announced at the first public budget hearing on September 5, 2013, was contained within Resolution 2013 -161 approving the tentative millage rates as the maximum millage rates tasked by the Board on July 19th, 2013. Agenda and speaker slips are available in the hallway. You must register if you wish to address the Board of County Commissioners regarding county budget. Troy Miller -- Troy, if you'd raise your hand please -- will take your speaker slips. Following some introductory remarks regarding tax rates and any changes to the tentative budget initially submitted to the Board of Page 3 September 19, 2103 County Commissioners on July 9th, 2013, and subsequently amended at the first hearing of September 5th, there will be an opportunity, which is agenda Item 2.C, for public comment. Speakers will be called by name. Commissioners, the first substantive issue to be discussed pursuant to TRIM are one, the percentage increase in millage over the rolled -back rate needed to fund the budget, if any; and two, the reasons ad valorem tax revenues above the rolled -back rate as calculated on the State's DR 24 forms are being increased. Rolled -back rate is defined as that tax rate necessary to generate prior year tax revenues. And this tax rate is calculated, not including taxable values, associated with new construction, additions, deletions, and rehabilitative improvements. The Board adopted budget guidelines for 2014, included a millage neutral position, the same tax rate as last year, and for that matter since 2010 for the general fund and the unincorporated area general fund which together represent 96 percent of the total aggregate taxes levied across all of Collier County taxing authorities for fiscal 2014. The fiscal 2014 amended tentative general fund and unincorporated area general fund budgets are presented, and based upon adopted budget guidance, calling for a millage neutral tax rate. Both the general fund and the unincorporated area general fund taxes are higher than the rolled back rate. Collier County taxable value has increased modestly over the past two fiscal years, and the increase from fiscal 2014 is 3.8 and 3.5 percent respectively within the general fund and the unincorporated area general fund. With an increasing taxable value environment under a millage neutral policy, the rolled -back rate will be lower than millage neutral, with the exception of fiscal year 2014. Each year beginning in fiscal year 2008 the adopted millage rate has been lower than the rolled -back rate. Since fiscal year 2008 when Collier County recorded its highest September 19, 2103 county -wide taxable value at $82 billion, the county has lost $84 million by not levying a rolled -back rate, which would have been the higher rate during the preceding five -year period when the county lost $24.2 billion in taxable value. Likewise, during that same period within the unincorporated area general fund, 16.6 million in revenue was left on the table by not levying the rolled -back rate. Commissioners, referring to item -- agenda Item 2.A, millage rates for each Collier County taxing authority have been established pursuant to budget guidance. Budget guidance provided that millage neutral tax rate positions would be taken in the general fund and the unincorporated area general fund. And further, MSTU tax rates would be set between millage neutral and tax neutral, based upon the respective advisory board recommendations. MSTU tax rates where no advisory boards exist would be set at millage neutral or below. The voter approved Conservation Collier tax levy is off the tax rolls for 2014. The cumulative aggregate rolled -back tax rate for all Collier County taxing authorities, exclusive of debt service, totals 4.2222 per $1,000 of taxable value. The proposed aggregate tax rate for all Collier County taxing authorities, exclusive of debt service, totals 4.1518 per $1,000 of taxable value. This represents a decrease of 1.67 percent and required the publication of a budget summary ad and not a notice of proposed tax increase for TRIM purposes. Item #2B FURTHER AMENDMENTS TO THE TENTATIVE BUDGET - DISCUSSED MR. ISACKSON: Commissioners, Item 23 on your agenda is a discussion of further amendments to the tentative budget. Further Page 5 September 19, 2103 amendments to the tentative budget are contained within separate fund resolutions found under Agenda Item 23, Pages 4 through 48. A summary of the resolutions is listed on Pages 1 to 3. The Board directed staff to proceed with compensation adjustments at the September 5th budget hearing, and the vast majority of budget changes for this final hearing contained within our customary resolution format reflect this direction. Budget changes stemming from Board action at the regular meeting of September 10th are also included. Resolutions amending the tentative budget from September 5th are prepared at the fund level. Many of the individual fund resolutions reflect no change from the first budget hearing on September 5th. These no change fund resolutions are expense side appropriation adjustments which increase personal services, operating, capital and/or transfers with a corresponding expense side balancing entry, usually from reserves. A resolution depicting a fund increase or decrease typically means that a revenue transaction has occurred. In these instances, fund revenue changes via transfer carryforward may increase or decrease. A complete summary of changes as well as individual detailed fund change resolutions are included within your packet. No changes to the roster's millage rates as approved at the September 5th budget hearing are proposed. Commissioners, if there are no questions on the further amendments to the tentative budget, it would be appropriate now to proceed to public comments and questions on the fiscal 2014 budget. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: Are there any questions, Commissioners? (No response.) Item #2C Page 6 September 19, 2103 PUBLIC COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: There being no questions, we'll proceed to public comment. Are there any public speakers? MR. MILLER: I have no registered public speakers at this time, Madam Chairman. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: Thank you. Item #2D RESOLUTION 2013 -202: AMENDING THE TENTATIVE BUDGETS — ADOPTED MR. ISACKSON: Commissioners, Item 2.1) is a resolution to amend the tentative budgets. Under Item 2.1) you will find the required resolution which amends the tentative budget passed by the Board at the first public budget hearing on September 5th. This action will include all resolutions contained under Items 2.B, Pages 4 through 48. The appropriate motion is to approve the resolution amending the tentative budgets. COMMISSIONER HENNING: Move to approve the amended tentative budget resolution. COMMISSIONER COYLE: Second. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: Any discussion? (No response.) CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: There being no discussion, all in favor? COMMISSIONER FIALA: Aye. COMMISSIONER HENNING: Aye. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: Aye. Page 7 September 19, 2103 COMMISSIONER COYLE: Aye.

I don't know, you have that -- there's a glow. COMMISSIONER COYLE: There's a reason for that, I'm sure. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: I'm sure. Well, you know, if you'd like to share that. It's kind of like Commissioner Henning who wanted to share that it was Halloween. If there's anything you'd like to share about that very special glow, feel free to do so.

COMMISSIONER FIALA: No. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: And for my part I have nothing to add other than tomorrow at noon for anyone who is inclined to feel compelled to dunk a commissioner, on behalf of the Board of County Commissioners I am donating my body to that project. So don't even think of it. I see you there. Don't even think of it. Take that smile off your face and don't even think of it. Do you want to stand up and let everyone see who you are? No? Okay. Commissioner Henning, are you behind this? COMMISSIONER HENNING: Well, I was a part of it a few years ago. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: Were you? Okay. With that, if there are no further comments from -- Page 15 September 19, 2103 COMMISSIONER NANCE: This self - sacrificial attitude on your part is commendable. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: I'm doing it all for you. COMMISSIONER COYLE: We should start calling her St. Hiller. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: All right. Well, let's not get carried away here. COMMISSIONER NANCE: Let's see what the Naples Daily News comes up with Monday morning. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: As long as there are no photographers, we're safe. I'm just saying; it's just a comment. COMMISSIONER NANCE: I think it will go viral, actually. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: All right. So tomorrow at noon. Actually it starts at 10:00, right, the actual whole -- MR. OCHS: Yes. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: -- dunking for United Way starts at 10:00. And we have celebrities who will be volunteering themselves to be dunked between 10:00 and 2:00. MR. OCHS: Yes, ma'am. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: And on behalf of the Board, as I said, I am volunteering on behalf of my fellow commissioners to be dunked at noon. COMMISSIONER FIALA: And isn't the farmer's market there tomorrow too? CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: I think so, yeah. COMMISSIONER FIALA: So people could come out if they -- you know, and just happen to see entertainment while they're shopping in the farmer's market. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: Absolutely. COMMISSIONER FIALA: Right? Okay. And there's a few purveyors will be serving food in case anybody -- COMMISSIONER NANCE: They're not going to be throwing Page 16 September 19, 2103 food, are they? CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: Commissioner Nance. COMMISSIONER FIALA: Don't give them any ideas. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: As I said at the end of the last meeting, we have to like curve these ideas that come out of you. I just want to contain them. We'll sort of ease out of the -- let them ease out of the box. COMMISSIONER NANCE: Well, you can remember the Civil War story I think where one of the generals was asked where a lieutenant was and he didn't see them and he said, well, sir, he was killed in battle this morning. And he remarked, very commendable. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: I'm not even going there. All right, I think that we have exhausted all of conversation topics and humor. And so with that, I make a motion to adjourn. May I have a second? COMMISSIONER COYLE: Second. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: All in favor? COMMISSIONER FIALA: Aye. COMMISSIONER HENNING: Aye. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: Aye. COMMISSIONER COYLE: Aye. COMMISSIONER NANCE: Aye. CHAIRWOMAN HILLER: Motion passes unanimously. The meeting is adjourned.
