North Collier and the County are sometimes referred to as the "Parties," or individually,as a"Party." Recitals 1. The "Effective Date" of this Settlement Agreement shall be the date on which the Settlement Agreement is executed by all of the Parties, in whole or in counterparts. 2. North Collier is an independent special fire control and rescue district within Collier County, State of Florida, which was created on January 1, 2015 through the voluntary merger of the Big Corkscrew Island Fire Control and Rescue District and North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District and operating pursuant to Chapter 2015-191, Laws of Florida. Chapter 2015-191, Laws of Florida, and section 191.008, Florida Statutes, grants North Collier the authority to establish and maintain emergency medical and rescue response services pursuant to chapter 401. Florida Statutes, and any certificate of public concern and necessity ("COPCN") issued thereunder. 3. The North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District was issued a COPCN from the County in 2011 that allowed it to provide advanced life support ("ALS") non-transport services within its boundaries. 4. In order to provide ALS non-transport services, section 401.25, Florida Statutes, requires a state license and an applicant must receive a COPCN from the county in which the applicant will operate. Subsection 6 of such section authorizes the governing body of the county to adopt ordinances that"provide reasonable standards for certificates of public convenience and necessity for basic or advanced life support services....In developing standards for certificates of 1 Packet Page-294- 1/12/2016 12.A. 11-2-15-FOR SETTLEMENT DISCUSSIONS ONLY public convenience and necessity, the governing body of each county must consider state guidelines, recommendations of the local or regional trauma agency created under chapter 395, and the recommendations of municipalities within its jurisdiction." 5. The County has adopted County Ordinance 2004-12 related to Emergency Medical Services, which provides its standards for the issuance of COPCNs. 6. In November 2014, the electors of the Big Corkscrew Island Fire Control and Rescue District and the North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District approved the merger of the two districts into North Collier effective January 1,2015, with such merger providing for two service delivery areas that corresponded with the existing boundaries of the merging districts. 7. In December 2015, the County recognized the merger of the North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District and issued a COPCN in the name of North Collier, which allowed North Collier to provide ALS non-transport services within the boundaries of its North. Naples Service Delivery Area and those areas outside of its boundaries through a mutual aid agreement. 8. On March 5, 2015, North Collier submitted its Request to Amend the District's COPCN to expand its existing current service area to include the Big Corkscrew Island Service Delivery Area;thus,allowing North Collier to provide ALS non-transport services districtwide. 9. On September 8. 2015, the County denied its staff recommendation that it approve North Collier's request to expand North Collier's service area to include the Big Corkscrew Island Service Delivery Area; renew North Collier's annual COPCN for ALS non- transport services; and, if the service area is expanded, approve an Amendment to the Interlocal Agreement Advanced Life Support Partnership Between Collier County and Big Corkscrew Island Fire Control and Rescue District. 10. North Collier filed with the Circuit Court for the Twentieth Judicial Court in and for Collier County Florida ("Court") a Petition for Writ of Certiorari and Mandamus or, in the alternative, Complaint for Declaratory and Injunctive Relief and Petition for Writ of Mandamus, Case No.: 11-2015-001871, wherein North Collier requested a writ of certiorari quashing the County decision that denied North Collier's COPCN to the District and a Writ of Mandamus compelling the County to approve and issue the requested COPCN to North Collier; and, in the alternative, an order declaring that the County Ordinance 2004-12, as amended, related to the COPCN is invalid and unenforceable, along with an injunction against enforcement of the 2 Packet Page-295- 1/12/2016 12.A. 11-2-15—FOR SETTLEMENT DISCUSSIONS ONLY challenged ordinance and a Writ of Mandamus compelling the County to approve and issue the requested COPCN to North Collier("Complaint"). 11. The County filed it's .on November , 2015, which Collectively, they shall be referred to as the"Litigation." 12. Both Parties believe that they have meritorious arguments and law supporting their respective positions as to issues raised in the Litigation. Both parties also recognize the cost and uncertainty of continued litigation as well as the negative impact on the quality and effectiveness of the provision of ALS services within North Collier. 13. To avoid further prolonged litigation, the Parties desire to resolve all disputes between them relating to the Litigation, and all claims and issues that have been asserted or could have been asserted by the Parties. To accomplish a full and final resolution of all such claims and issues, or potential claims and issues, the Parties now enter into this Settlement Agreement and the documents related thereto. 14.
