Agenda 09/27/2016 Item #16B1 16.B.1 09/27/2016 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to approve an amendment to Resolution No. 2001-98, reducing the size of the Advisory Committee; defining the member affiliation requirements and updating applicable sections of the Bylaws For the Immokalee Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) Local Advisory Board. OBJECTIVE: To provide for representation of the community as consistency of organizational structure among the CRA Advisory Committees within the County. CONSIDERATIONS: Pursuant to CRA Resolution 2001-98 the Immokalee Community Local Redevelopment Advisory Board Bylaws were created providing for membership, terms, purpose, duties, organizations and rules of procedures. The Bylaws have been amended multiple times since 2001 with the most recent amendment being CRA Resolution 2015-217. Since the establishment of the Immokalee CRA several designations previously held by the Immokalee community which required an appointment on the CRA have been rescinded warranting some restructuring of the Advisory Board. An evaluation of Advisory Board structures included a review of the Bayshore Redevelopment Area's Advisory Board and it was determined that structuring the Immokalee CRA Advisory Board similar to the Bayshore Advisory Board would provide for more consistency in the organizational structure of the two advisory boards. Consequently, the number of Imunokalee CRA Advisory Board members is being proposed to be reduced from 13 to 9 with the following membership affiliation structure. Affiliation Designated Vacant Position Positions Resident 2 0 Business 2 0 MSTU Member 1 0 Non-Profit 1 0 At-Large 3 3 Total 9 3 As a result of this restructuring the bylaws state the following: 1. The terms and classifications for the following members of the Immokalee Local Redevelopment Advisory Board are confirmed as follows: a. MICHAEL FACUNDO, whose current term expires on April 4, 2019, was formerly classified as "Non-profit Community Based Organization representative" and is hereby reclassified as "Resident." b.

FRANK NAPPO, whose current term expires on April 4, 2019, shall continue in the classification of"Non-profit Representative". g.
