Agenda 02/27/2018 Item #16K 102/27/2018
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to appoint a member to the Immokalee Local Redevelopment Advisory Board.
OBJECTIVE: To appoint one member to the Immokalee Local Redevelopment Advisory Board to fill
the remainder of a vacant term expiring on April 4, 2020.
CONSIDERATIONS: On March 14, 2000 the Board of County Commissioners adopted Resolutions
2000-82 and 2000-83 establishing the Collier County Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) and
identifying two areas within unincorporated Collier County (Bayshore/Gateway Triangle and Immokalee)
as areas in need of redevelopment. In addition, Resolution 2000-83 authorized the creation of Local
Advisory Boards by separate resolution to assist in the implementation of the redevelopment plan. The
CRA adopted Resolution 2001-98, which provided that the Immokalee Enterprise Zone Development
Agency would also be the Immokalee Local Redevelopment Advisory Board. When the Florida
Enterprise Zone Act was repealed in 2015, the CRA adopted Resolutions 15-217 and 15-218 establishing
the Immokalee Local Redevelopment Advisory Board as a stand-alone advisory committee. The purpose
of this committee is to be the primary vehicle for community and professional input to the CRA for
matters relating to the Immokalee Redevelopment Ar ea. Terms are 3 years. A list of the current
membership is included in the backup.
The committee bylaws as revised in CRA Resolution No. 2016-198 provide that the membership of this
nine-member committee be distributed as follows:
a) Two (2) Immokalee residents;
b) Two (2) individuals representing Immokalee businesses;
c) One (1) Immokalee Lighting and Beautification Municipal Service Taxing Unit (MSTU)
Representative;
d) One (1) individual representing a non-profit operating in the Immokalee Redevelopment Area;
e) Three (3) at-large representative who reside or engage in business, or both, in the Immokalee
Redevelopment Area.
Mr. Robert Raines, representing (b) Immokalee business, resigned on December 19, 2017. The vacancy
was advertised and an application was received from the following:
APPLICANT CATEGORY DIST. VOTER ADVISORY COMM.
Julian Morgan 3 Yes Collier County Citizen
Corps (12/2014-
10/2015)
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: At its meeting on January 17, 2018, the committee voted
unanimously to recommend that Julian Morgan be appointed to fill the seat vacated by Mr. Raines, which
term expires on April 4, 2020. This seat is designated for an individual representing Immokalee
businesses. Although Mr. Morgan does not engage in business in the Immokalee Redevelopment Area,
the committee feels he would be a valuable member, and therefore would request that the designation of
this vacant seat as representing Immokalee businesses be waived , and Mr. Morgan be appointed as a
second member representing category (d) non-profits operating in Immokalee. A recommendation memo
is included in the backup.
