Agenda 09/26/2017 Item #17I09/26/2017
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to adopt an ordinance amending Collier County Ordinance No. 84-37, As
Amended, Codified in Chapter 38, Civil Emergencies, Article III, Declaration of State of
Emergency, of the Code of Laws and Ordinances, to maximize the County’s opportunities for
reimbursement under Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Public Assistance
Program.
OBJECTIVE: To maximize the County’s chances for reimbursement under the FEMA Public
Assistance Program by establishing definitions and legal actions related to debris removal following a
disaster or local emergency.
CONSIDERATIONS: Collier County Ordinance No. 84-37 addresses the need to designate a County
Official to declare a local state of emergency (as defined in Chapter 252, Florida Statutes) and authorize
certain actions relating thereto when a quorum of the Board of County Commissioners (Board) is unable
to meet. The Board subsequently amended Ordinance No. 84-37 by adopting Ordinance No. 2001-45,
2002-50, 2007-49, and 2011-34.
The proposed amendment is to clarify the County’s responsibility to remove disaster -generated debris
located within the County on County-owned property, County-owned roads, and private roads after the
declaration of any state of emergency pursuant to this Ordinance and to add related definitions.
The proposed language has been taken from Clay County’s Emergency Management Ordinance. Staff, as
well as the County’s debris monitoring consultant, Tetra Tech, believes this language will maximize the
County’s chance of reimbursement under the Public Assistance Program.
FISCAL IMPACT: The cost to advertise this item was $387.44.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no impact to the Growth Management Plan with this
Executive Summary.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: Prior amendments to Ordinance No. 84-37 were created by adding
sections to the Code of Laws and Ordinances rather than by adding sections to Ordinance No. 84-37,
the original “stand-alone” ordinance. The approach used in formatting the proposed ordinance
amendment is consistent with the prior approach. Accordingly, this item is approved for form and
legality and requires a majority vote for Board action. - JAB
RECOMMENDATION: To adopt an ordinance amending Collier County Ordinance No. 84-37, As
Amended, Codified in Chapter 38, Civil Emergencies, Article III, Declaration of State of Emergency, of
the Code of Laws and Ordinances, to maximize the County’s chances for reimbursement under the Public
Assistance Program.
