Planner Weeks gave the background of the proposed amendmP.nt and advised how it was originally requested. He stated that the current Ordinance provides that waterways of 100 ft. in width or greater may have a boat dock which protrudes 20 ft. into the waterway. He otated that if two docks are built across from each other, there is 60 ft. of navigable waterway, providi~g that no boats are moored on the outside of the dock. Mc. Weeks advised that at the direction of the Board, Staff completed an in-depth review of this subject, the canals in the County, and had meetings with various groups and people intec~.ted in this amendment. He stated that Staff's recommendations to the CCPC wecer 1. Prohibit mooring of boats on the outside of docks. 2. Waterways of lOa ft. width or greater may have protrusions of 20 ft. into the waterway, to include structure and boat. 3. Increase the side setback from 7.5 ft. to 15 ft. 110( 109 'S'.! 111 Page 5 --""<4'- -,....._----._"....,..,,,. . NO( 109 '1'J.ll2 NOVEMBER 3, 1987 4. Include "riçarian rights" provision lo address lots aL the end of a canal S. Increase public notice requirements for boat dock extensions to conform to other public petitions, such as variances, zoning amendments, etc. 6. Add a definition of "dock facility" 7. Clarification of Section 8.46 - "Private Boat Houses and Docks" Mr. Weeks advis~d that at the CCPC Public Hearing on this proposed amendm~n' five p~rsons spoke in favor of the petition; eight persons spoke in opposition stating th~ amendment did not protect the rights of present and future property owners, it will negatively affect navi- gation and boat maneuvering, will allow boat houses and boat shelters which may b!~ck the view of nearby prop~rty owners, is not aestheti- cally desirable, and will negatively affect prop~rty values. He stated that eight letters hav~ been received in opposition to the ori- ginal amendment and one letter has been received in opposition to the Staff'e proposed amendment. Mr. Weeks advised that th~ CCPC recommended the followinq changes to Staff's recommendation: 1. A 20 ft. prolrusion is allowable on c~nals with 105 ft. in width, or greater. 2. Side setbacks should remain at 7.5 ft. Mr. Weeks ~ated that several people point~j out during the CCPC hearing that the canals are not exactly 100 ft. in width and vary to ð little more Or a little less. He stated Staff has found some canals Page 6 - .. - -""~·,","·,-",-,~·-",~----__ov ....." "!1_" .___ # .- NOVEMBER 3, 1987 at 101 ft. or 102 ft. He noted this also allows for 65 ft. of navi- gable waterway. Ch~irm~n Hasse stated that 100 ft. wide canals are prevalent on Marco Island, however, there are other areas of the County where the canals are 60 ft. or 70 ft. in width. He stated he has received a suggestion from Miles Scofield, Scofield Marine, which he feels is realistic. He read Mr. Scofield's letter which suggested the following variationø be addressed: L Canals less than 70 Ct. be 1 imi ted to dockf with a protrusion of S ft. 2. Cana 18 from 70 ft. to 90 ft. in width be limi ted to docks with a protrusion of 10 ft. 3. Canals from 90 ft. to 120 ft. in width be limited to dockl!l with a protrusion of lS ft. 4. Canals over 120 Ct. wide be limited to docks with a protru- sion of 20 f t. Chairman Hasse stated that he feels it is import~nt to address the narrower canals in the County. In answer to Commissioner Goodnight, Mr. W~eks stated that a dock of lS ft. would almost require that the boat be parked on the outside of the dock. He noted that if the Board prohibits mooring on the out- side of the docks, it would force those people to have smaller boats. Commissioner Pistor stated that he is in favor of Mr. Scofield's suggestion, however, he feels that the Ordinance cannot cover every situation and anyone wanting anything different than the proposed Ordinance may apply for a variance. Page 7 111* lU9 rJ·.! 113 -- lOOC lC!),s'.! U 4 . NOV!:MBER 3,1987 Mr. Weeks advised th; a side Issue of boat houses ðnd shelters and their aesthetic value was discussed ~t the CCPC public hearing, and the CCPC recommended that they be deleted from the proposed Ordinance and be allowed only within the propcrty line. He advised they dl.rected Staff to bring back for review a mechanism by which boat shelters and boat houses could be permittcd to protrude into a water- way, such as ~ pcovision~l use, variance, or boat dock extension. Responding to Commissioner Saundecs, Mr. Wceks stat(!d the only corcespondence received from rp.sidents outside of M~rco Island was from Mr. Scofield. ^lso respc'nding to Commissioner Saunders, County Attorney Cuyler stated the intent was that whatever is applicable to Marco Island would apply County-wide, ho~ever. if the Boacd can dIf- ferentiate between the areas, the requirements could be different. Commissioner Pistoc stated there cannot be too many variables within an Ordinance. He pointed out that if the "riparian rights" extends a lot at the end of a canal, the dock for that lot could extend the full 20 Cl. in fronl of another person's lot. Mr. Weeks distri- buted a sketch showing h0~ the "riparian rights" extend the lots, and noted that the ~e"back requirements avoids that situation. Commissioner Goodnight ask~d "what is the average width of a boat on the canals?" Commissioner Class stated that is a very important point, since the majority of the canals are water depth restricte,j and sailboat peopl~ cannot usually gel into those aceas. ~ape 12 Page 8 - - - --"'-,"..,,,".._,,,....,.,.,'.~_."

Mr. Miles Scofi""d, owner or Scofield Marine, advised that his company designs m~rin~~ for 1~rge power boats and 40 ft. of navigable wl!lterway is adequatl' r'or two boats to pal'S, 50 ft. is a lu~ury, and 60 fto is excellent. 'ie stated that canals outside or Marco Island range in width fro~ 45 ¡to to 204 ft. and he feels it is imperative to pro- vide for the var~ing widths. He noted that one standard will overbur- den the Staff with variances and become very costly to the County, as well as the public. He also stated tha~ a 15 ft. setback is accep- table for the lot sizes on Mar '0 Island, however, the balance of the County has some 50 ft. wide lots. He Buggcsted combining the variation for the different canal widths and the Stdff's recommen- dations for clearance and prohibiting parking on the outside of 20 ft. docks. Attorney David Bruner, representing the Sailing Association of Marco Island, stated that the Board is considering an Ordinance which intends to permit a person to use, as their exclusive private right, that which is a public right-of-way. H( stated that the Plat of Marco Island dedicates a 100 ft. canal, less a 5 ft. dock, to the perpetual use of the public. He stated this is a covenant running with the land. He asked the Board to request their Attorneys to prepare an opinion as to whether or not the Board has the power to grant en exclusive private use in a public right-of-way. Mr. Cuyler stated that in his opinion the Boerd is consider'ing an I'age 10 - .. .. ,-_.._~->_..~~, ,,. ._..."",........"""""-----'^,- -.,."'....;""'-..." ..,..' - .. - NOVEMBER 3, 1987 Ordinance that is going to be equally applicable for all waterfront properties within the County and specific individual rights are not being IIddressed. He stated that he ðgrees with Mr. Bruner in that the Board cannot re9ulat~ or ðllow those rights which would be applicable for waterfront lots to extend to the point or have the docks protrude to the point where they violate the navigðble rights of other people to 90 up and down the canals. He also stðted, that the Board does have the right to have some reasonðble measure for docks and dock extensions. In response to Commissioner Saunders, Mr. Bruner stated that he believes the Board can enact any Ordinance they want to, but the question is the lega 1 i ty of the Ordinance. /Je stated the permit that would flow from the Ordinance is the issue and he is suggesting the permit itself would be the violation of the rj9ht-of-way. Commi..ioner ala.. aoved, .econded by Co~i..ioner Saunders and carried unaniaously, tbat tbe pUblio b..ring be alosed. Commissioner S~unders stated there ðre a number of people in favor of the CCPC recommendation, however, he disagr~es because he believes there is confusion on the difference of the issues of protocting aesthetics and safety of navigation. He suggeeted that Staff should return with a provisional use type arrangement for boat houses, limit the protrusion of the dock and boat to 20 ft. into the waterway, limit the setbacks to IS ft. and limit the application of the Ordinance to Marco Island at this time. Answering Chairman Hasse, Commissioner IOOC IG9pl"~ 117 Page 11 NOVEMBER 3, 1987 Saunders explained that his suggestion means the measurement would be taken from the seawall and would extend 20 ft. into the waterwa) and ia inclusive of dock, pilings, and boat. Coaai.sioner Olass moved tbat tbe Staff's original recommendations be approved witb the following cbanqess 1. Waterwayo 70 ft. or less are limited to a 5 ft. dockin; faci- IHy. 2. Waterways greater than 70 ft., but less than 90 ft., are limited to a 10 ft. docking facility. 3. Waterways grcater that. 90 fto, but less than lOa ft., lire limited to a 15 ft. docking facility. 4. Waterways of 100 ft. or greater are limited to a 20 ft. docking facility. S. Boats and/or structures may not protrude further than 20 ft. into the waterway. 6. Setback requirements are not to exceed the legal structural setbacks required by the Collier County Building Code €!xcept that on Marco Island a set~ack will be 15 ft.; 7. Staff i3 directed to return to the BCC with a recommendation for a boat house construction or sh~lters to be subject to provisional use with the exception of where they are comple- tely contained w:lhin the property boundaries and are covered by the eYisting building regulations. 8. The moratorium that was enacted in this issue is rescinded as of the passage of this Ordinance. During discu~sion of the motion, Commissioner Pistor stated that there are some lots on Marco Island that are less than lOO ft. ~'ide which are on waterways and the l5 ft. setback on those lots could be ð problem. He stated he is in favor of the IS ft. setback lor lots that are at least 100 ft. wide, however, on lots that are les. than 100 ft. Ptlge 12 - .. .. .'.. ~,'M''''''__"'.

Co~issioner Saunders stated that there is a possibility that on a lot that is between 90 ft. and 100 ft. wide, there could be a protru- sion that is greater than the protrusion on a canal over 100 ft. wide.

In respcnse to Commissioner Saunders, Mr. Weeks stated that the Ordinance proposed by Staff states that for lots 60 ft. or greater, there will be a 15 ft. setback.

Mr. Wpoka atat.d that It does not because at, the end of the canals, the lots have less than 60 ft. of frontage and would remain at the 7.5 f', setback requirement. He atated there are two procedures that may be followed in this instance: 1) boat dock extension pet1cion which allow. a docking facility to be built further into the w,3terway than the Ordinance would a llow; and 2) the var iance procedure which allows the setbacks to be reduced. Coaaissioner alass re.tated bi. aotion tbat tbe ordinance as nua- bared and titled below be adopted and -ntered into Ordinance Book øo. 29, per th. Staff's original reco..endations with tbe following obange.s 1. Waterways less than 70 ft. will be limited to~ 5 ft. docking fltcility. 2.

LBGISLA7URB '1'0 BB MUD '1'0 IlBPBAL SCHEDUlED RBnRBØDUM Mr. Rex Ashley, President of Naples Area Chamber of Comm~rce, etated that he is requesting that the Race Track funds alloceted by the State each year be equally shared between the Board of County COrlllliesione,'s and the School B~ard of CoIl ier County beginning wi th 1988-89 fiec:al year. CommiesJ,oner Pistor stated that the money is obligated to bond issues and this money cannot be used for anything else until the bonds are paid off which will not be until 2003. He stated that some of the bonds will t~ p~id off in 1996 and that excess money could be given to the School Board and then after the year 2003 when there is no further obligation, tIle money could be split equally. He noted that according to state la~s, this money Is obligated to pay the bonds and is secured that way, which means that this money cannot be used for anything else unless an ordinance was enacted that would create a special tax levy to pay for th~ bonds for which the pari-mutuel money has been obli- gated. Mr. Ashley stated that he thought that the committee had worked out a ,olution to this problem. County Attorney Cuvler stated that the suggestion was that the Page 16 - .. .. ",.----...,-....-....,.. ,.. -_.. . """"'....._,_r--........__....__ ---,. NOVEMBER 3, 1987 I:~unty replace the 50\ of the race track funds with funds from some lIther source. He noted that this would not be a split of those funds, It. would be ~atching funds from some other source. He noted that the ~'ney for the bonds could not be diverted, adding that the County .',mld negate a donati~" from other sources. Clerk Giles questioned if the County can legally donate money to I h.' School 8·:>ard, to which County ^ttorney Cuyler stated that this '4..uld have to be investigated. Commissioner Saunders questioned how much money is involved, to I.hich Mr. Ashley stated that it is aboul $450,000 on an annual basis ,tlHi the Scho<)l Board's share would be approximately $225,000. He 1I.'led that the intent ion was to avoid the necess i ty of going through a '~ferendum process, adding that the State has mandated that in lieu of :~ming to a mutual understanding, in March this would go to a referen- .!'.lm on an all or nothing basis. He stated that with these funds being ':~~itted to a bond issue, a secondary legal problem comes up, and tn 'rder to aVOId problems, it was hoped that a solution could be reached so that a referendum would not be necessary. County Attorney Cuyler stated that if the Board of County Commissionern does not ma~e a decision on this matter, the County is going to havE~ to proceed prior to that election to enjoin the election to keep this situation from ~rising, adding that whether the Legiu.la- tur~ has ðllClwed for the election or not, those funds cannot be impaired le9~lly. He stated that this is the beginning of this deci- & )(JI( 109 ra·.I123 Page 17 - 100( 109rJ"~ 124 ,NOVEHB!R 3, 1987 .ion, adding that if the Board of County Commissioners are interest.ed in trying to replace the pari-mutuel funds with some other kind of funds in the spirit of cooperation and to give those to the School Board, thEn he can be directed to determine if this 1s legal and how it should be done. He noted that if the Board decides not to do that and takes the position that those funds lire committed to the year "pe- cified in the bonds, then there is no need for research. Commiusioner Saunders stated that regardless of what is done with the race trðck funds, someone is going to have to r~ise taxes to make up half the money, adding thet It is simply a question of who raises the taxes. Commissioner Pistor stated that the School Board is not allowed to raise tax~s, adding t~~t if the County decided to do this, an ordi- nance would have to be enacted and the number of mills would have to be put on the tax bill to collect the money to payoff the bonds. Commissioner Saunders stated that ad valorem taxes cannot be raised to payoff the bond issue, adding that the race track money would be used to payoff the bond issue and the ad valorem taxes "'ould be raised to pay ~he School Bo~rd and Mr. Giles is questioning if this can be done? He staled thal he does not know if this can be done either, but there would be no savings to the taxpayers no matter which way it ifl done. Mr. Ashley stated that if the referendum can be eliminated, the taxpayern "'ould benef i l more from that.

He noted that this is the area that they ere trying to avoid. Commissioner Pistor stated that he discussed this with Mrs. Hawkins and Mr. Dudley and they are trying to determine if this referendum can be legally held in view of the fact that this monE~y is alreadY co~mitted. He stated that he feels that th~ Board of County Commiasloners needs to wait before any Dction is taken. ~.p. tIS Commissioner Gla~s stated that he concurs with Commissioner Pistor, adding that it needs to be determined if this is legal. He indicated that he is not incllned to give the School Board the money. County Manager Dorrill stated that there is opportunity to have this repealed during the special session of the Legislature on December 3, 1987, adding that there should be some action that would show intent so that in the event that Mrs. Hawkins and Mr. Dudley want to repeal what was admittedly a bad bill, they will have to advertise it 30 days in advance of its consideration. He stated th~t the Chamber of Commerce has made a proposal to the Board and some action &DO( 109 FJ'.{ 125 Page 19 ¡ : 'DOC 109rJ.: 126 NOVEMBER 3, 1987 should be taken on it. H~ noted that there could be a motion made that would agree to share the money at such time that funds are available and if in any given year, there is an excess in pari-mutuel funds, that could be given to the School Board. He stated that staff's position is that this money is pledged and committed as the sole re,venue for those bonds and, therefore, even if the election is succes~ful on the part of the School Board, bond counsel does not feel that they could be given the money. cOJrØd..ioner Piator aoved that if there are ex.,e.. pari-mutuel funds in any given year over and above tbat obligateð to ðebt .orviee, tbe county will abare the. vith the School Board fro. now until tbe year 2003. Finance Director Yonkosky stated that the final debt servico payment on the small issue is a large amount, adding that there is going to be a shortfall in 1996 and if the County gives the excoss fees tel the School Board, the County is going to have to COIM up with that S3S0,CÜO from something other than race track revenues in 1996. Clerk Giles stated that it appears that between now and 1996 there are no excess funds. Commissioner Saunders stated that qenerally when there is a pledge of .ome re'venue to support a bond issue there is usually a pledge of additional revenues as coverage. Count\' Manager Dorr i 11 stated that this is uni~ue as there are no ..condnry revenues pledged at all. Page 20 I.' - .. NOVEP1BER 3, 1987 c~is8ioner Saunders seconded tbe motion. Clerk Giles stated that with regards to the referendum, Article III of the Constitution says that there shall be no Special Act paswed which impairs obligations of a County, adding that it may be that this legislation is not legal in the first place. County Attorney Cuyler stated that he would request that if this deter~ination is to be made, then the Legislature should be asked to make that determination and if it is illegal, it should be repealed. Commissioner Glass stated that the reference to Article III of the Constitution should be incorporated ~nto the motion. c~i..ioner pistor ..ended biB .otion to read that in view of Article III, section 11(a) (9) of tbe Conatitution, the Board is agreeable to sbare witb tbe School Board anI Doney in exces. of tbe ..ount of pari-mutuel funds required to pay debt service on the two bond i.sue. between now and the year 2003 and at tbat tiDe, the County will be glad to .bare the race tract revenue on a 50\ b~si., and that tbe Leqislature be asked to repeal tbe scbeduled referendum of tbi. matter.

A-87-1 APPEAL OF PLAKKIHO/IOøIøa DIRECTOR'S DBCISIOØ THAT A 1918 PROVI8IOØAL USE APPROVAL O~ A PRESCHOOL FACILITY (KIDDIB OARDZH) IS LIMITED TO ØO HORE THAJf 100 CHILDREN - CONTIIWED FOR TWO nEItB Legal notice having been published in the Naples Daily News on October 18, 1987, as evidenced by Affidavit of Publication filed with the Clerk, public hearing was opened to consid~r Petition A-87-1 filed P8ge 21 100« 109 Fa'.! 127 aooc 109ra'-! 128 NOVEMBER 3, 1987 by Ro~rt G. Hines representing Patricia M. ðaisley, appealing an Administrative Decision to deny the expansion of a provisional use which was ðpprovcd pursuant to petition PU-78-9C. Community Development Administrator Pet trow stated that in 1978 a provisional use was approv~d for Kiddie Garden prcschool then known as Early Childhood Care and Learning Center on the south side of Colden Gatt! Parkway. tie noted that documentation submitteo:! at that time specified en enrollment oí 100 children and the Board approved this provisional use, but the enrollment of ]00 children was not a ccndition stipulated. He indicated that the current owner desires to enlarge the facility which was sold 8ut~~quent to ~he original provi- sional use. He noted that an occupational license was issued for 103 children, adding that due to the growth in tile area, the owner "fishes to increase the enrollment. He indicated that the Planning and Zoning Director'ø opinion is that the facility's enrollment cannot be increased beyond the 100 children based on what was represented to the Board at the time the provisional use was heard and approved. He stated that the option of applying for another provisional use to increa5e the number of childrcn is not now permissible, as the ordi- nance was amended in 1982 and the Estates Diatrict was changed nnd it will not permit child care centers unless they are owner-occupied and limited to 25 children. He noted that if the appeal is upheld, then there is a question of how to allow more than 100 children when that provision is no longer in the ordinance, adding that staff's opinion Page 22 ... - -. NOVEMBER 3, 1987 i. that the representations !lade to the Board at the time the original provision~l use was heard was pert of the consideration end deter- minati·:)n process in approving the preschool facility and, therefore, supports the decision that an enrollment beyond 100 children would constltut~ a violation. He stated that staff's recommendation is to support the decision of the Planning and Zoning Director, addin9 that staff is not objecting to an enlargement of t~~ preschool facility or an enllJrgement in enrollment, but the process to ðccom~li8h thi:!l does not exist due to the existing provisional use limitations for such facili~ie. in the Estates. He stated that staff ie bound by th~ curren~ ordinance. Hr. Russ Baisley stated that his wife iø the owner of this Bchool, adding that he did some research on provisional uses that are similar on Colden Gate Parkway that have been put in place in the last few years. He noted that David Lawrence Center has a two step provisional use, adding that they are on five acres of land. He noted that Step-by-Step was granted a provisional use for a 4,000 square foot facility about 300 feet from him. He noted that that provisionÐl use does not require an owner-occupied provision nor is it limited to 2S children. He not~d that he does not understand how Step-by-Step got a provisional use for 4,000 square feet in 1987 in the Estates. He noted that Learning Together is the only one that makes reference to student capacity and il has a capacity of 240 ~hildren by provisional use. He stated that it is his contention that limited capacity is not aooc 109 ~J',[ 129 Page 23 -_...._-,~--_.........';._.."---"~""'...,'--......,,.,"'~""'..,.,. ,~...~.,.,.""'~,~,.~..,..._~*.,',q.~-~-.,._,.......,.~~.- '* 109".01 130 NOVEMBER 3, 1987 . proper function or the provisional use document as HRS has a very specific formula for lhe number of parking spaces, square footage, age of childr~n, etc. He stated that there i! a clear need for additional child care of quality nature. He indicated that his wife's facility is on approximately 3 acres of heavily wooded land and is consistent with the needs of the area. He stated that he does not know how to obtain such approval for additional children. Planning/Zoning Director McKim stÐted that the original approval was granted to the David Lawrec,ce facility in 1977 which would fall under th6 same provision~ as the Kiddie Carden, adding that David Lawrence has been back twice since their original approvðl. She stated that Step-by-Step is not the typical child care, adding that it is for handicapped children. She stated that this come in under a rehabilitative services type of facility. Mr. Baisley stated that that facility is for both handicapped children and normal children. Commissioner Saunders stated that he is very sympathetic with the petitioner, but their hands are tied. He noted that when an applica- tion comes in, the contents of that are part of the approval, odding that it does not appear that there is anyway that this facility can be enlarged without making some amendments to th~ zoning ordinance. County Attorney Cuyler stated that the number of children is the issue as opposed to enlargement or expansion, adding that ther~ is no objection to the expansion of the building.

NOVEMBER 3, 1987 Commissioner Saunders questioned what it would take to amend the ~rdinance to permit more children, to which Planning/Zoning Director 'kKim stated that the owner-occupied child care provisional use would have to be changed to simply child care in the Estates. She indicated that she does not know the reasons for changing this in 1992 to owner- occupied child care, adding that in all single-Camily districts it is owner-occupied with a limit of 25 children but, in the Estates, the lots are larger and in certain locations a larger child care than 25 could not have a negative effect on surrounding properties which is the teet for the provisional use. She stated that in a residential area if it is not owner-occupied, then it would be considored commer- cial. She noted that the other option is to look al the number of children that are allowed in the owner-occupied child care centecs and either leave it up to HRS or ~or different districts, allow a dif- ferent number of children. Commissioner Saunders stated that what is contained in the appli- cation is relevant to this petition, but there needs to be a way to resolve the probleø without reversing the decision of the zoning staff. He indica~ed that amendments to the zoning ordinance takes quite some time. Mr. Ro~rt Hines, coun6el Cor Mr. Bai.ley, questioned whether the repre.entations made in the application do become a part of the per- mit, to which County Attorney Cuyler stated that stipulations are always incorporated into the documentation, adding that at that time IDOC 109 r&r.( 131 Page 25 i ;, , ' ~ ... -- ... l09~·pl32 , NOVEMBER 3, 1987 all the stipulations were not incorporated into the documentation. He stated that a position that the Board can take is if the petitioner supplies ei~her papcrwork or makcs repr~senlalion as to whal the use and intonsity of the property is going to be with regards to a provi- sional IJse, then that is somet.hing that the Board could consider as being a requirement of the property. Mr. Hines stated that with regards to Step-by-Step, the Board approved this facility ðnd it is in the f.sta~cs and is not owner- occupied and is serving more than 25 children and questioned what the difference lS between Step-by-3lep and Kiddie Garden? Planninu/Zoning Di rector McKim stated that th is peli lion cafllt! in as rehabilitative service facility and not as a child care. Mr. Hinns stated that this facility is control]ed to a large degree by HHS and the number of children that can be served is based on a formulll that HRS establishes. He indicated that he would Like SOllie clarification as to what the difference iJ. Planning/Zoning Director McKim stated that it is not whether it is controlled by HRS, but a child care for children is basically a baby- sitting typ~ of service and sometimes has sChooling with it and is considered under kindergarten age children, and is not accredited by the State of Florida as an educational institution. She stated that when Step-br-Step came in, they wanted a facility where they could work with hðndicapped children, which was a rehabilil.ative type of facility. She stated that it is limited to handicapped children. Page 26 NOVEMBER 3, 1987 Mr. Baieley stated that that facility is serving 35 children at this time, and there are both handicapped children and normal chlldren. COllnty Attorney cuyler stated that if Step-by-Step is in violation of what the Board approved, this is an entirely separate issue. Mr. Boinley stated that Step-by-Step contacted him when he was trying to buy the lot on either side of their present facility for expansion, odding that Step-by-Step asked him if he would object to them building a facility beside his facility because they talked to the County Planning Department and it was indicated that there would be an additional need in Colden Gate for this type cf facility. ~ape '7 Mr. Baisley stated that there was a sign posted for a provisional us. for 4,000 square feet which is child care for normal children also. He stated that he does not want to limit Step-by-Step to just handicapped because those children should be with normal children and someone made a wise decision when they started that operation. Mr. Hines que1tioned if Mr. Cuyler has any sugq8stion other than amending the zoning ordinance, that would allow his client a way to be able to serve more children and expand the facility? County Attorn~y Cuyler stated that if the Board of County Commissioners has no ~bjection, he will research the matter and come back in two weeks. c~i.~ioner ala.s .oved, .econded by coaais.ioner launder. that Page 27 aooc 109u"\ 133 ....... -- ,_"".~, <'·.~'_'·"_,n~~··' ,. l(j'9n~ 134 NOVEMBER 3, 1987 this item be continued for two weeks in order to find a resolution for this problem. Mr. Paul Muenser stated that he is part of the Step-by-Step foun- dation, noting that this is a facility for the handicapped children., He stated thðt the amount of square footage and the classrooms needed ie larçer thðn what is required for a normal day care center because of the children and the apparatus they need. He noted that this hðs been the only purpose of thið facility. Mr. George Keller stated Step-by-Step and Kiddie Garden are two separate iIJsues, but Kiddie Garden would not have go~ten the zoning if it had not been restricted to 100 children and it should not be expanded all it will be a commercial operation. He stated that if this is approved, the Board will be compounding the problem. County Attorney Cuyler stated that he would check into the matter, adding that he does not think that he will be able to come up with a mechanism, but he will be happy to talk with the petitioner and check on some of the other situations.

He stated that they are in the process of initiating a performance management system for the County, adding that the County is in need of a personnel manage- ..nt system that is compatible with that effort, as the one that exists is not compatible to address the issue of productivity by means of a system that gives pay and rewards for performance. He also noted that the existing system has not been reviewed in 9 years and maximum time within the profession is 7 years, adding that five is the normal time frame. He stated that a consultant IS needed because someone that has a track record in productivity manage~nt :' s n'_'9ded and also in pay for ~~rformance type systems. He stated that the legal standing within the system needs to be stl'e~9thened or enhanced, adding that there are a number of loopholes that should be closed in dealing with fair labor standard type issues and also the civil rights related issues. He reported that staff is not equipped at this Ume to undertakn this project as it would take about two full man year's of work and a professional consultant could do it in 9 months which would meet the deadline of October 1, 1988. He indicated that there will be a gr.eat deal of staff participation in this project in order to keep the cost at a minimum. He stated that the Constitutional Officers have been asked to participate in this project which will help spread out the cost. Mr. Ja~!s Blue, Florida Relations Attorney, stated that this is something that is long overdue, adding that the County is probably Page 29 IOOC 109 Plr.~ 135 ---....--..--¡.- .,..... ... 100 '1''.136 NOVEMBER 3, 1987 fortunate that they have gone this long' without a serious problem. He atated that there are jOb descriptions that must be rewritten in order to be sure that they are job related.

McE] rath, Attorney for John ðnd K,'lther ine Prout, appealing nn Administrative Decision thðt Site Development Plan origi- nally issued in 1982 is still valid and the issuance of a building per.it in 1987 pursuant to said Site Development Plðn io valid for the United Church of Marcu Island. Community Development Ad.inistrator Pet trow stated that this matter concerns an appeal of the Planning/Zoning Director'. decision that a Site Development Plan approved in 1982 for off-street parking, but not implemented to date, does nOl have a time restriction and remains valid. He stated the site of the approved off-street parking Is located at the intersection of North Barfield Drive and Briarwood Court, for 33 parking spaces on 1/3 of an acre. ~ape '11 Mr. Pettrow advised that the building per~it was issued in June, 1987 to construct parking facilities on a residentially zoned lot Page 37 - - - ",-,,- NOVEMBER 3, 1987 ecroes the street from the churr.h. He stated the approval for the off-street parking was granted originally in 1982 by the Zoning Department following the submittal of a required Site Development Plan, which is consistent ~ith Section 10.5 of the Zoning Ordinance. He said approximately five years has lapsed since the Site D~vel( pment Plln WIS issued and the church is now ready to construct the par.:ing lot. He said as a result of the Building Permit being issued an appeal has been filed to prevent the use of the vacant lot as a parking facility. He advised the basis of the appeal is that thp. pro- posed u.e ia not in compliance with the current Zoning Ordinance beca- use a 5 year delay has occurred since the Si te Develq)ment Plan "a. originally approved. He said the appellant contends that by applying the policy of legislative intent, the SDP, w~ich does not have an expiration date, should be adm:nistered the same as provisional usee, which do have expiration dates. He noted that in addition the appeal questions the Building Permit application which states the purpo~e of construction is an addition, when the prooosed parking lot is on an adjacent block and separated from the existing church facility by Briarwood Court. Mr. Pettrow stated that in response to the concern over the time lapse, Staff finds no basis to invalidate the SDP, because there is no time limit or clause which addresses this matter in the Zoning Ordinance. He stated it is Staff's opinion, concerning off-street parking, that Section 8.12 specifically addres~es and adequately Page 38 'OG( 100,S',r 1'49 -- 109",o! 150 NOVEMBER 3, 1987 allows for parking faciliti~s within 600 feet of the principal use lot. Mr. Pettrow stated Staff recommends that the Phnning/Zonin9 Director's decision that the Site Development Plan approved in 1982 for off-street parking for the United Church of Marc~ remains vlllid with regard to location and that a time limit or expiration datu on the Plan does not apply. Commissioner Glass asked Planning/Zoning Director McKim if the request for the parking lot were presented today, without the bf!nefit of the old Site Development Plan, would it be approved? Mrs. M,:::Kim stated that under those circumstances she would recommend that the church apply for a provisional use. She noted that none of the churches on Marco Island are provisional uses, but rather are provided for on the Subdivision Master Plan which supersedes the need for a provisional USe. Mrs. McKim stated that if a provisional use were necessary it would undergo the entire re~iew process. She stated that the church did apply for a p~ovisional use, which was withdrawn, and included other properties. ~ ",e stated that it is her opinion that with appropriate mitigation, a parking lot could be appropriate on that site for a church in light of the limited use a church gets. Attorney David McElrath, representing John and Katherine Prout, Petitioners, stated that this is the first opportunity for the citi- zenry of Marco Island to contest the proposed issuance of a building Page 39 - - .. -",.._.,-~.......<"".."'."".~,-"._--'" NOVEMB!:R 3, 1987 per.it for the United Church of Marco's parking lot. He said the parkin~ lot was approved without public notice, hearings or notifica- tion of adjoining residents. He noted that the application for the parking lot on Barfield and Briarwood is for a non-adjacent, sin9le- family residential lot located across the street from the church. He advised they feel the SDP was approved in error or inadvertently in 1982 by an Administrative Assistant in the Zoning Department. Mr. McElrath stated that Section 10.5(b)(5) of the Zoning Ordinance states that SDP must be commit ted to "permit ted utles". He said those permitted uses are spec if ically Olltl ined as single-family residences, public parks, public playgrounds, public playfiE!lds, and commonly owned space. He said parking lots I!re not addressE!d anywhere in the single-family Zoning Ordinance. He noted that becaufle it is not mentioned, Section 7.11(b)(4) must be followed. He quoted, "a prohibited use and structure is not permitted to be built." Mr. McElrath stated a church is a permitt~d provisional use in the District, and since the parking lot itself is a prohibited use, the church may cia im it is to be used in conjunction with the church. He said if this is the case, the parking lot must be applied for according to Section 13 of the Zoning Ordinance addressing provisional uses, including written petition, public notic~ and public hearing. He said Section 10.5(c)(9) states an SDP general development must be compatible snd harmonious with the propertieD in the general area and with other '~evelopment in the area as to not cause a substantial pege 40 aDIII 109 WI 151 ._-_._~.~, .-. aooc 1U9,a',f 152 NOVEMBER 3, 19 8 7 depreciatic·n of property values. Mr. HcE:lrath stated that permitting a parking lot in a single- family residential area will result in a tremendous devaludtion of the property 01 the neighboring land owners and Marco IBland as a whole. He then ree,d a letter dated July 28, 1987 addressed to County Manager Dorrill frc,m the residents of Briarwood Court and Piedmont Circle requesting that the United Church of Marco be required to submit a 1987 provitlional use petition and a public hearing '1cheduled before the CCPe alld the Board of County Commissioners on this matter. Mr. Mcl:lrath continued by stating that Mr. Pet trow cites Section 8.l2(d)(3) which permits the Zoning Director to approve an SDP per- mitting a parking fad li ty to be erected within 600 ft. of the building OJ· use it it! intended to serve. Ife said that Mr. Pettrow fails to ~~ntion the remaining requirements of that section which sta- tess "when practical difficulties prevent the placing of the required off-street parking facilities on the same lot as the building or use it is intended to serve". He said there is nothing shown that there were pract,ical diff iculties at the time of the application for the SDP in 1982 wh,¡ch prevented the parking lot from being built on the same lot as the church, since in 1983 the church expanded to nearly double i'.5 originnl size. He also noted that Sectiol" 10.5(e) requires that any change to a SDP requires a complete review. Mr. Mcglrath pointed out that the church applied for a provisional use permit in 1986 (Petition PU-86-19C) for the construction of Page 41 - - .. ._,-,~-,"~,,,,--~--...~....,,,,,,.."_---. _.",_.,·~__"<O."'"...,,.o, ..,. . .,."... - - - NOVEMBER 3, 1987 parking lot~ that would entail filling in a portion of the Briarwood Canal and p~ving over 9 or IO residenti~l lots to construct parking lots, which was later withdrawn by the church due to public outcry. He stated it is their contention that the church abandoned the 1982 SDP approval pursuant to Section lO.5(e) and should be required to reapply for a new SDP. He stated the 1986 applicetion is prima facia evidence of the church's intent to abandon the origir'al SDP. He then requested the Board to order the 1982 SI>P invalid and prohibit the issuance of the building permit. In answer to Commis5ioner Pistor, Mr. McElrath stated he did not research the Board minutes, but rather relied on the Planning Department records. Commissioner Pistor stated he was on the B08rd in 1982 and he remembers a public heering and the church applied for more than one lot: one on Barbados and Barfield which was denied and the one at Briarwood and 1arfield which was approved. Mrs. McKim stnted there is no provisional use for the church because it was platted as a church aite which negates the need to apply for the provisional use process. She said that in reviewing the rile on tho site plans, there were two plan applications requested, aft described by Commission(lr Pistor, and only the site on Barfield and Briar.lood waR approved under the sito plan. She elso noted that site development plans are approved at the administrative level. She said they could not find where the Board took any action on this plan, and they usually do not. County Attorney Cuyler stated that he sees no me~tion of the issue Page 42 lOb 109 FA~~ 153' f! " . .. NOVEMBER 3, 1987 of the 1982 approval in his pftperwork, and asked if this issue is being r8ise~ for the first time today? Mr. McElrath said it is their position that in ord~r to review the validity of the SDP, the basis and circumstances must be viewed. Mrs. Katie Prout, Petitioner, submitted a petitiol :n opposition to the United Church of Marco's parking lot. containing approximately 300 signatures. She als~ suÞ~itted copies (If letters received on this issue, and two original letters which she received just prior to the meeting. She also distributed copies of a booklet containing her sta- tement on this issue and copies of the npplicable sections of the Zoning Ordinance (Exhibit No~ II filed in the Clerk's Office). Responding to Mr. Cuyler, Mrs. Prout stated that she first became aware that a SOP existed a couple days before her meeting with Planner Weeks on July 13, 1987. ~ap. f12 Attorney James Karl, of ~rost , Jacobs, representing the United Church of Þ!arco, stated they feel there is a very narrow issue at stake and requested the Board to refer directly to the appeal docu- ment. He etated the issue is a question as to wh~ther or not a limi- tation, in this case ð one year limitation, should be imposed upon the Site DeYe1(~ment Plan issued in 1982. He sta,ed that until a few minutes ag(1 there were no documents or anything that indicated that the SOP itf~lf was going to b~ challenged. Mr. Karl stated the SOP was issued and relied upon by the church pege 43 - - .. NOVEMBER 3, 1987 after it .,as issued. He sa id there were two lots which were being considered for purchase by the church and both contracts were made expressly contingent upon obtaining the npproval for use of those Lots as parking faciJlties. He said they obtnined the approval for one lot and did not obtoin approval for the other lot and the purchase was cancelled on the lot which was not approved. Re.ponding to Chairman Hasse, Mr. Karl stated he believes the church owns other lots in the surrounding area, however, this appeal is for thE! lot on BarfiElld and Briarwood. Mr. Karl stated that in reviewing tho file on the purchase of the lot, they obtained copieB of letters notifying the adjacent property owners of the purchase and a description of what was intended for the lot. Mr. Xerl stated that the appellants would like the church to irnpose an after-thE!-fact time limitation, when the church could have no possibility of ever thinking that a time limitation would be imposod. He stated such action would create a very disturbing precedent for the citizens of Collier County who rely on Zoninq Ordinances and rules. He noted that to have a specific affirmative obligation read into nn Ordinance io something that does not come within tþe scope of legißla- tive intent and could not have been the legislative intent or it would haye been expressed. Hr. Karl continued by stating that the appellant is also claiming that the building permit application was submitted as an addition and since it Is not contiguous with the church property, the 1982 SDP is Page 44 ~OC( 109 F&'.l155 --"'.....

He pointed out that the building permit application offers three choices: n~, alteraticn or addition. He said in this case, aince the church already uses the lot as a parking facility, they are merely going to landscape and put in the parking area, and it ill closer tCI an addition than an alteration or new facility. Mr. Karl stated he d~fers to the County Attorney and agrees that Section 8.12 of the Zoning Ordinance provides for SDP approval of' parking facili- tie. that al"e within 6CXJ ft. of the aervicing building. Mr. Knr:l stated they agree with the Plar¡ning/Zoning Director's Decision, the Executive Summary, ðnd the interpretðtion of the County that the action in 1982 properly supports the building permit in this case. He stated the collateral issues on other lots, the church, people and /,eighborhood were all deal t with in 1982 and relied upon by the church. Attorney Fred Kramer of Frost & Jacobs, representing the United Church of Marco, stated that he would like to ðddress the emotional issues brought up today. He reminded the Board thðt the emotional issues of expansion of the parking lot, the luture plans of the church, saving the neighborhood, and the concept of property valucs are not th~ issues today. He stated thp. the ~hurch is not seeking anything bE!yond the bui Iding pcrmi t at issue. Mr. Cu~'ler pointed out that whi Ie the Board is interested in the future plans of the church, it does not strictly have a bearing on whether tho Site Development Plan is an appropriate basis for the Page 4~ - .. ..r HOVDIBER 3, 1987 i.suance of a building permit today. RespondJng to Commissioner Glass, Mr. Karl stated that there is no doubt at al] that in 1982 it was clearly the intent of lhe church not to buy the property unless they had the U9P.. He said the church Js run by a Board of Directors and changes occur and there ~ay have been purchases since that time that were made without the contingency on zoning. Continuing to respond to Commissioner Glass, Mr. ~arl stated that the provisional use petition was withdrawn because of opposition and the church decided to proceed with the lot which was already approved. He atated that the church has made attempts to deal with public oppo- sition because they are concerned about the aesthetics in the community. Mrs. McKim stated that the reason the lot in question wa. included in the 1986 provisional use was at Staff request. She sðid that at that time she was nct aware that a SDP existed for off-site parking on the Barfield 8!,d Briarwood lot. Mr. John Prout, Petitioner, and Ms. Rùth Kempf spoke in opposition to issuance of the building permit for the parking lot. Mr. Cuyler, defining the issue, reminded the Board that the i.sue is not a provisional use petition, and the Board is not in a legal position to determine whether the parking lot is a good use or a bad use for the property. lie stated the issue is dn appeal of the Zoning Director's decision to allow a building permit to be issued under an Page 46 IOOC 109 m.t 157 _~..,."._"__"^,......",,,,,. ..,. ....""k.~'.""..,"__ -~~"-_..._",-- "''''"'''''~'''''''.'''''''''_'''_>O'.';""",_,."_~_,,_...."~., _ 109".J 158 NOVEMBER 3, 1987 exi.ting Site Ðevelcpment Plan that was issucd in 1982 and which the church claims is valid today and the appellants claim should not be valid today. He said the eppellants have raised two legal issues: 1) the SD~ was illegally issued in 1982, and 2) there has been a 5 year delay in construction of the Site Development Plan and are asking the Board to find that it is no longer valid and no building permit should be i.sued. He stated that a lot of the discussion will probably be heard from the public about the use itself, and that i8 not the question. He noted thc Board is to decide whether they uphold or overturn the Zoning Director's decision. ttape'13 Responding to Commissioner Pistor, Mr. Cuyler stated that normally when regulations changc, as long as someone has a previous approvnl, they will be grandfathered. He said if regulations change and thcre was no expiration on the approval, it does not expire. Mr. Cuyler stated that although he has not given his opinion yet, this type of issue normally will not appear before the Board unles. he has sUpported the Director's decision. He noted that he has not heard the allegation that the approval in 1982 was not proper until today. He stated his opinion is that the decision that is being appealed is the building permit on the SDP and the primary ar9umen~ would have to be the 5 year delay; there is no expiíation provision; the SDP hns not expired; and a building permit can be issued under that SDP.

Deputy Clert Kenyon replaced Deputy Clert lueter planning/Zoning Director McKim stated that she would like to clarify one issue which is the original approval of the site develop- JDent plan and if it was done in error. She noted tl.at et that time, the interpretation was that off-site parking could be permitted and approved through the site development plan process on residential lots. She stated that this interpretation held until she became Zoning DirE~tor and she does not feel that this is the intent of the zoning ordl,nance. She stated that subsection (d) provides for parking to be on the same lot and in the same zoning district, adding that when the ordinance starts to address the off-site parking, it does not .ake reference to having to be in the same zoning district. Sh~ indi- cated that her argument is that residentiLII distr icts do not allow parking lots. She reported that according to the interpretation in 1982, that aite development plan was issued correctly and that interpretation was nevcr appealed at that tima.

Mr. Cuyler stated that thct Board has hoard some eloquent discussions of the issues and restated his opinion that the church has establIshed a chain of legal rights, the SDP was appropriately approved in 1982, there was reliance on the approval by the church, and there is no expiration provislon.

Commissioner Saunders stated that this is a very difficult issue and the reason is that there is so much emotion from the neighbors concerning the impact. He said he is not completely convinced that the single parking lot will have as drastic an impact as the neighbors feel it wi 11 have. He stated th.:! County Attorney has stated that Staff is correct in upholding th.!! bui Idíng permi t and and he does not feel the Board is in a position to do anything to the contrary. He noted, however, that if he votes to uphold the Zoning Director's deci- sion, it in no way implies that he will vote for anything else. Responding to COMnissioner G>Odnight, Mrs. HcKi. stated that even if the other lots owned by the c1urch are contiguous to this par- ticular lot, they would need a provisional use for the other lots.

He said they have been advised they must connect to the County's system and the question is whether they have to pny system development charges. Mr. Pickworth staled that in 1984, the developer of Springwoe<l entered into an Agreement with the County which required him to build a package plant. He sald the Agreement also provides for the deve- loper to ~rn oy.r the plant. which i. recoqniEed tc be en interim facility.

Mr. Pickworth stated that the developer did advise all prospective purchasers, howeve~, there were no system development charges in offect in 1984 an~ there was no way to foresee that the County would impose an Ordinance establishing system development charges in 1986. He said the County Ordinance provides not only for impact fees, but also that all existing units will pay a system development charge.
