EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation that the Collier County Board of County Commissioners acting in its capacity as the Community Redevelopment Agency(CRA) approve the attendance of three CRA staff members and one Local CRA Advisory Board member at the Florida Redevelopment Association 2014 Annual Conference; authorize payment of attendees' registration, lodging, travel and per diem from the Immokalee CRA Trust Fund (Fund 186) travel budget in a total amount not-to-exceed $4800 ($1200 per person x 4); declare the training received as serving a valid public purpose; and direct the County Attorney to amend the Bylaws of the CRA, and bring back for Board approval, to expressly authorize travel expenses for Advisory Board members with prior Board approval. OBJECTIVE: Recommendation that the Collier County Board of County Commissioners acting in its capacity as the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) approve the attendance of three CRA staff members and one Local CRA Advisory Board member at the Florida Redevelopment Association 2014 Annual Conference; authorize payment of attendees' registration, lodging,travel and per diem from the Immokalee CRA Trust Fund(Fund 186)travel budget in a total amount not-to-exceed $4800.00 ($1200 per person x 4); declare the training received as serving a valid public purpose, and direct the County Attorney to amend the Bylaws of the CRA, and bring back for Board approval, to expressly authorize travel expenses for Advisory Board members with prior Board approval. BACKGROUND: Florida Statute 163.356(3)(d), "Creation of community redevelopment agency states, "At any time after the creation of a community redevelopment agency, the governing body of the county or municipality may appropriate to the agency such amounts as the governing body deems necessary for the administrative expenses and overhead of the agency..." Florida Statute 163.387(6), "Redevelopment trust fund states, "Moneys in the redevelopment trust fund may be expended from time to time for purposes directly related to financing or refinancing of redevelopment in a community redevelopment area pursuant to an approved community redevelopment plan and administrative/overhead expenses necessary or incidental to the implementation of a community redevelopment plan adopted by the agency." Collier County Ordinance 2000-42 establishes the Redevelopment Trust Fund and appoints the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) as the governing body of the CRA and the trustees of the Redevelopment Trust Funds. CONSIDERATIONS: Annually, the Local Advisory Board recommends the CRA Board approve travel and training funding for any Advisory Board member and CRA staff desiring to attend the Florida Redevelopment Association Annual Conference. The 2014 conference will be held October 7 — 10, 2014 in Miami, Florida. Currently, the Interim Director, and two staff desire to attend and one or more Local Advisory Board members may attend. The maximum cost is approximately $1,200 per person for registration ($395/person); lodging ($159/night/room), mileage and parking fees. Actual cost per person will vary depending on - 1 - Packet Page-1459- 9/9/2014 16.B.1. group travel, number of days attended and times of departure and return from either Naples or Immokalee. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed by the County Attorney, is approved as to form and legality, and requires majority vote for approval. Unlike, for example, the Planning Commission, the Immokalee Enterprise Zone Development Agency and the TDC Ordinances, there is no specific provision in the CRA Advisory Board Bylaws which would authorize travel expenses for CRA Board members. As a housekeeping item, it is recommended that the CRA Bylaws be amended to specifically provide for such reimbursement. The amendment would substantially track the language of the Immokalee Enterprise Zone Development Agency Ordinance, which provides in relevant part"Members of the Agency shall serve without compensation, but may be entitled to seek reimbursement for expenses reasonably incurred in the performance of their duties upon prior approval of the Board of County Commissioners." -JAK PUBLIC PURPOSE: To expand the Advisory Board member and CRA staffs' professional development. To attend the annual conference of the Florida Redevelopment Association for training and education about CRAs,their power and function; redevelopment programs available to CRAs toward the elimination of slum and blight in the Immokalee community redevelopment area. Through attendance at conference lectures and tours, attendees will become aware of successful programs and projects in other Florida CRAs. FISCAL IMPACT: Sufficient budget exists within the FY 2014 and proposed FY 2015 Immokalee CRA Fund 186 (Travel Professional Development)to fund the requested conference attendance. Registration fees ($395/person)will be paid in advance from the FY 14 budget and lodging ($159/night/person),travel and per diem will be paid from proposed FY 15 budget. The total fiscal impact of this request will not exceed $4,800.00 for four individuals at a rate of $1,200.00 each. RECOMMENDATION: That the Collier County Board of County Commissioners acting in its capacity as the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA)approve the attendance of three CRA staff members and one Local CRA Advisory Board member at the Florida Redevelopment Association 2014 Annual Conference; authorize payment of attendees' registration, lodging, travel and per diem from the Immokalee CRA Trust Fund (Fund 186) travel budget in a total amount not-to-exceed $4800.00 ($1200 per person x 4); and declare the training received as serving a valid public purpose, and direct the County Attorney to amend the Bylaws of the CRA, and bring back for Board approval, to expressly authorize travel expenses for Advisory Board members with prior Board approval.

Legislative Update 2015: William J. Peebles, Esq., Founder; and John Wayne Smith, Principal, Peebles & Smith, LLC While we are busy embarking upon or rebuilding our redevelopment programs, be assured that the legislative arena is in full action mode. What are the new laws, especially the ethics provisions passed in 2014; and have there been any interpretations or official rulings on these new rules? What is on the horizon for 2015? The upcoming "election year" can be a determining factor - and the FRA, members and partners need to continue to be strong advocates for local control. 4 Packet Page -1466- • 9/9/2014 16.B.1 .

Moderator: Suzanne Neve, Executive Director, Florida Festivals & Events Speakers: Suzanne Neve, Executive Director, Florida Festivals & Events Association and Joe Shipes, Executive Vice President, Leesburg Partnership CM 1.0 Innovative Approaches to Economic Empowerment 2:15 p.m. - 3:15 p.m. Many CRAs prioritize investment in physical infrastructure improvements to eliminate blight in their communities. These investments are essential ingredients, but in isolation cannot repair and address market dysfunctions that lead to sluggish economic growth, particularly within areas of intergenerational poverty. What is needed is a new approach to redevelopment that connects capital investment with capacity building, which is the topic of this session, including examples in Florida. Moderator: Evan Johnson, AICP, LEED AP, Project Manager, Tindale Oliver & Associates, Inc. 5 Packet Page-1467- 9/9/2014 16.B.1 .

We will also talk about the risks and challenges they faced, who they worked with; and how. Outdoor dining platforms, an urban farm, a brewery and smart marketing all added up to a formula for real economic development results. Moderator: Sharon McCormick, Director of Marketing, Redevelopment Management Associates Speakers: Teresa Lamar-Sarno, AICP, City of Stuart CRA Administrator; Thondra Lanese, Stuart Main Street Manager; and Allison Justice, Project Manager, Oakland Park CRA CM 1.0 Bringing Cash to the Development Deal 3:30 p.m. - 4:30 p.m. It these times of slow economic recovery, CRAB can be real partners like never before, leveraging increment in long term funding deals. Retail interests have the market studies and their future to leverage - the CRA is asked to fill in the gaps. Franchise agreements, land, incentives, secured loans; and rebates are all on the table for deals these days; and we will look at what is and is not a good deal. Moderator: Jeffrey Oris, CEcd, Director, Economic Development, City of Miami Beach 6 Packet Page-1468- 9/9/2014 16.B.1. Speakers: Elizabeth C. Burrows, Economic Development Manager, Delray Beach CRA; Kevin Crowder, CEcD, Director of Economic Development, Redevelopment Management Associates CM 1.0 How Do We Get Out of the CRA Business? 3:30 p.m. - 4:30 p.m. It's a question rarely asked in the public sector, but then again, CRAs are quasi-public. And quasi private. We also operate under a specific ticking time clock where it is assumed that ultimately the job will be done. We want to do it so well, so thoroughly, so excellently, with such collaboration with City Hall and such public support that, when our work is done, we can declare victory—and go out of business. The Gainesville CRA will share candidly from their experience with a radical strategic planning process that took its project list from 294 projects to 14 community-focused initiatives and turned everything upside down. Moderator: Anthony Lyons, Director, City of Gainesville CRA Speakers: Sarah Vidal-Finn, Manager, City of Gainesville CRA; and Diane Gilreath, Manager, City of Gainesville CRA CM 1.0 Refreshment Break in Exhibit Hall 4:30 p.m. - 4:45 p.m. The Right Partner: Adaptive Reuse in Waterfront Redevelopment 4:45 p.m. - 5:45 p.m. This session will be a case study of a successful collaboration between the City of Tampa and a 100 year old Tampa business as a catalyst for significant investment; and how that project has increased the focus and investment on the waterfront and surrounding neighborhood. We will be drilling down to the RFP process and collaboration between private business, government and the non-profit sector, involving historic structures and portion of an urban neighborhood on the waterfront. Moderator: Shaun Drinkard, Executive Director, Friends of the River walk Speakers: Ashly Anderson, Placemaking & Urban Design Manager, Friends of the River walk; and Michael Kilgore, Chief Marketing Officer, Columbia Restaurant Group.

Supporting Your Businesses during Construction 4:45 p.m. - 5:45 p.m. During the first part of the session, we will be talking about one of the most common issues when both the good news and bad news is: downtown construction! We will describe and explain how to cover the risks associated with all the different aspects of a construction project in your downtown. The second part will discuss public outreach program to help businesses continue to thrive during construction. Participants will come away with a significant understanding of what it takes to successfully complete projects in their downtown business core.

CM 1.0 Market Gardens 4:45 p.m. - 5:45 p.m. This session will show how a Community Garden literally grew into a Market Garden. A vacant 1.6-acre lot provided a local organically grown vegetables to residents as part of an initiative to eliminate blight, promote economic development and improve community health. It is an outstanding example of how non-traditional partnerships can be created in order to fulfill the CRA's mandate to build better communities. We will provide valuable details totally transferable to any size program. Moderator: Jeremy Earle, ASLA, AICP, Executive Director, Dania Beach CRA Speakers: Dion Taylor, Program Manager, ENO Consulting Group, LLC; and J. Gary Rogers, Executive Director, City of Lauderdale Lakes, CRA Dinner Reception in Exhibit Hall 6:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. This is a great opportunity for professional networking.

Thursday, October 9, 2014 Continental Breakfast in Exhibit Hall 7:00 a.m. - 8:00 a.m. ROI Analysis on Incentives 8:00 a.m. - 9:00 a.m. This session is designed to be an introduction into the methods and processes successfully used to estimate the change in government revenues and expenditures resulting from development projects. Although this real life case study was a large project, the CRA was a relatively small one. We will be looking at an economic development incentive program, using a simplified fiscal impact model. New developments not only generate additional tax revenue and service fees, but also require local governments to build new infrastructure and provide additional services. Fiscal impact analysis tries to predict the net financial effect. We will supply plenty of useable take home information. Moderator: Jeff Burton, Director, City of Palmetto CRA CM 1.0 Putting Vacant Buildings Back Into Productive Use 8:00 a.m. - 9:00 a.m. This session will feature a CRA program that achieved noteworthy success in reusing large long-standing vacant buildings. Large buildings downtown were redeveloped using planning and partnership resources. We will share the "nuts and bolts" of the grant programs, the planning and partnership resources used; what happened in preparing the programs and working with applicants; how we achieved compliance with design guidelines; and how awarded grants are monitored. Moderator: Tony Otte, CRA/Economic Development Director, City of New Smyrna Beach CM 1.0 CRAs and Nonprofits - Partnership or Peril? 8:00 a.m. - 9:00 a.m. With the recent downturn in the economy, funding mechanisms are becoming increasingly scarce in the public and private sector alike; and this is true for nonprofit organizations as well. What are the limitations for working with such agencies in public private programs? Many CRAs are seeing an increase in requests for funding from nonprofit agencies. Is having the mission of the organization link back to a community redevelopment plan sufficient to validate the expenditure? How much scrutiny should be 10 Packet Page-1472- 9/9/2014 16.B.1 . placed on these requests? What can be done to implement a successful partnership from our residents' point of view? Moderator: Diane Colonna, AICP, Executive Director, Delray Beach CRA CM 1.0 Refreshment Break in Exhibit Hall 9:00 a.m. - 9:15 a.m. Accelerating Urban Investment 9:15 a.m. - 10:15 a.m. Riviera Beach used a comprehensive and integrated approach to address real and perceived safety issues in their community. With the goal of attracting public, private, residential and workforce investments, the city overcame real crime trends and lingering negative perceptions of safety. The panel will discuss the development of an innovative action plan and implementation; and the significant results already obtained. Further, we will share how these tools can also be applied to resort areas, commercial corridors and historic areas.

What are those things, small in stature but big on success? When there is literally no money, what can you do to either start up or maintain momentum; and or to get projects done? We will talk about several proven techniques, but please bring your success stories to this lively discussion of the challenges, crazy ideas; and war stories in your experience - emphasis on what works! Moderator: Ben Janke, Main Street Manager, City of Lynn Haven Speakers: Ted Everett, Washington County Chamber of Commerce and CRA Director, City of Chipiey; and Mary Lou Hildreth, Former Mayor, City of Keystone Heights CM 1.0 Make Your Nightlife Safer, More Vibrant 9:15 a.m. - 10:15 a.m. Learn how to use whatever tools you have to reinvigorate downtown.

Refreshment Break 2:15 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. Social Media Tools and Tips for Building Thriving Communities 2:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. The myriad of"social sphere" tools has quadrupled in the last year; and our citizens young and old are embracing the ease and fun of connecting with their community online. Redevelopment programs can hugely benefit from knowing how to get and hold people's attention online. We will discuss how you can effectively use digital tools to inform, involve, inspire and invite people to support what their city, county, CRA or partner is doing to revitalize. Speaker: Michael Winn, Digital Opps, a Division of RBOA CM 1.0 Educational Redevelopment 2:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. A unique partnership between Florida State University, The Seminole Boosters, the City of Tallahassee and the Tallahassee Community Redevelopment Agency led to a $23 million mixed use development called College Town. That development helped spark more than $200 million in redevelopment activity in the Tallahassee CRA. The partnership continues to grow and has led to plans for the Madison Mile joint project, which will include a convention center hotel. We will be talking about land swaps, deal making; political leadership; and strategies that could be utilized in other communities. Moderator: Michael Parker, Director, Economic and Community Development, City of Tallahassee 14 Packet Page-1476- 9/9/2014 16.B.1. Speakers: Will Butler, President and Founder, Real Estate In Sync; and Alan Hooper, LEED AP, President Hooper Construction Inc. CM 1.0 Refreshment Break 3:30 p.m. - 3:45 p.m. Projects and Partnerships for the Homeless in CRAs 3:45 p.m. - 5:15 p.m. Businesses are demanding; and citizens are supporting, downtown areas becoming more proactive about truly supporting our homeless citizens.
