Agenda 05/11/2010 Item #17D Agenda Item No. 170 May 11, 2010 Page 1 of 20 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to adopt an ordinance which would establish a mechanism to create a dedicated source of revenue to fund an economic development program and to advance economic development initiatives in zones of geographic concentration within unincorporated Collier County. These zones, to be called Innovation Zones, will be designated by the Board from time to time through the implementation of Economic Development Plans adopted by Resolution for each Innovation Zone. OBJECTIVE: That the Board of County Commissioners (Board) adopts the attached ordinance intended to promote economic growth and help diversify the economy of Collier County by creating public-private partnerships funded, in part, by utilizing tax increment revenues within economic development areas to be called Innovation Zones. CONSIDERATIONS: The proposed ordinance is an enabling ordinance. It is designed for maximum flexibility under the statutes, and to allow the Board a quick response to economic opportunities as they become available to the County. The proposed ordinance empowers the Board to create Innovation Zones ("Zones") by adopting a resolution defining the geographic area comprising the zone. At the same time as the creation of the Zone, the Board would also adopt by resolution, an Economic Development Plan for the Zone. The Economic Development Plan would create a public-private partnership, which would among other things define various commitments in the form of financial funding, infrastructure improvements, land donations or other contributions, designed to promote the success of the Zone. The ZOIle would be funded, in part, through Tax Increment financing derived within the boundaries of the Zone. The Tax Increments would be deposited into an Economic Development Trust Fund to be created for each Zone. Revenue bonds could then be secured from available funds maintained in the separate Economic Development Trust Fund created for each Zone or from available funds jointly available in multiple Economic Development Trust Funds for multiple Zones as determined in such subsequent resolution or agreement. The proposed ordinance also authorizes the Board to establish, from time to time, rules and regulations to implement and govern the administrative procedures that will be necessary for staff to implement this Ordinance, including minimum application requirements. These rules and regulations would be published and made readily available to the public. At its April 13, 2010 regular meeting, the Board directed the County Attorney to advertise the proposed ordinance for future consideration. Subsequently, the stakeholders requested certain clarifications/corrections which are indicated in the underline/strike-through version of the ordinance. The County Attorney has reviewed and has no concerns regarding these revisions. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The proposed ordinance was drafted by the County Attorney and is legally sufficient for Board action. - JAK FISCAL IMP ACT: Advertising costs for this ordinance is approximately $260.00. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMP ACT: None.
