Hiller, Esq. 1 0 A 2335 Orange Blossom Drive Naples, FL 34109 Georgia, It is with regret that I tender my resignation from the Collier County Planning Commission for personal family reasons, effective immediately. It has been an honor and a privilege to serve as your district representative,and I want to thank you for giving me that opportunity. I remain a staunch believer in your efforts to bring transparency and clean responsible governance to our Board of County Commissioners. Respectfully, Gtiu� William Vo er 104 Add On Item 10D EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation that the Board of County Commissioners direct staff to research the following economic development tools as part of the overall economic development program for the county and bring back recommendations to the board in October, 2013: 1. Consider developing a public-private partnership with the Chamber of Commerce with the county providing an operational, performance-based subsidy conditioned upon the Chamber agreeing to implement an economic development program that will serve to recruit businesses to Collier county, and, that such a Chamber program shall be led by a new Chamber executive director that has demonstrated marketing and sales skills, along with a proven track record in economic development transactions. The county would then shift its focus from business recruitment to administrative facilitation and backing. It is suggested that the County Manager meet with the new incoming Chamber Chair and new executive director to discuss such a partnership. Further consider hiring a consultant with knowledge of public-private economic development partnerships to model the relationship and recommend how new businesses would be recruited through such a partnership. 2. Consider the following economic development incentives that do not require an outlay of public tax dollars and as such will not result in an increase in taxes,nor a shift in existing program support: A. Property Tax Abatement - Both constitutionally and statutorily allowed, this program would allow for property tax abatements from 1 to up to 10 years with BCC approval, awarded based on job creation and/or possibly capital investment. Requires referendum approval by the tax payers. Already in place in numerous competing Florida counties. Consider that if the business is not drawn to the county, then the tax revenue wouldn't be generated; therefore, the county is net gaining tax revenues it would otherwise not have in the long run. B. Short Term Moratorium Countywide of Commercial Impact Fees - Consider fee credits for all commercial development to encourage new businesses growth which will allow for increased employment opportunities and future growth in property tax revenues. Again, if the business won't come to and/or build in the county because the fees are a major impediment, then future tax revenues are forfeited and employment opportunities are lost. The amount of impact fees exempted would be about$2-3 million which will be rapidly paid back by the future property taxes the new property will generate. The net result is a positive increase in overall county revenues. C. Real Estate Data Base and a Rent Abatement Program - That the county have its professional real estate department in conjunction with its outside commercial brokers list all commercial properties and land available for sale in Collier county on the county's website, much like Lee county has done. Further,that staff develop a short-term rent abatement program for emerging or recruited businesses that need to be housed pending construction or improvement of their new facilities. Incentivize based on job creation. To ensure that these programs have the intended long term financial benefit to the county, it's recommended that an outside consultant be retained to pro forma the return on these programs. Hiring a highly regarded consulting firm like a McKinsey, Boos or a Big 4 firm to quantify the impact of these incentives would help the BCC and staff develops an incentive program with substantive impact. Add On Item 10D 3. Federal and State Grant Procurement - The County does not currently have a fully developed federal and state grant procurement program directed at economic development. To the end that the county will be bringing in a consultant to aid in developing it's grant administration operations, there should be an overlap with the county's Office of Economic Development to allow that office to know that economic development grants will be professionally administered. For example, seeking grant funding for the construction of incubator facilities, economic development marketing etc. should be aggressively pursued. OBJECTIVE: That the Board of County Commissioners direct staff to research the following economic development tools as part of the overall economic development program for the county and bring back recommendations to the board in October, 2013. CONSIDERATIONS: That staff research the following for BCC consideration: 1. A public-private economic development partnership with the Chamber 2. A property tax abatement program 3. A short term commercial impact fee moratorium 4. Develop a commercial and land data base like Lee county's and a rent abatement program 5. Development of a federal and state economic development grant procurement program FISCAL IMPACT: To be determined. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: That the County Attorney provide assistance with the research to ensure that legal impacts/considerations are not overlooked. RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners direct staff to research the following economic development tools as part of the overall economic development program for the county and bring back recommendations to the board in October, 2013: 1.

Lacking previous evaluations or any history of specific goals or areas of focus for improvement, it is personally problematic to employ the evaluation form supplied by Collier County Government, soliciting an assigned numerical grade on specific performance about which I have little direct knowledge or expertise. For my assessment I have relied on the aggregate subjective opinion of numerous citizens, health care professionals, and administrators, that in my opinion, have provided me with constructively critical observation and honest professional critique. My assessment is that Dr. Tober has given general direction to Collier County EMS that overall meets or exceeds the standard generally expected to be performed by the County Medical Director. I have no question that the requirements of Florida Statute are being met. The great preponderance of opinion, including numerous critics, indicate that in the general areas of the overall Medical Direction of the Collier County EMS, including Quality Assurance, Training, and Operational Procedures, Dr. Tober is an extremely skilled and capable Medical Director. His long term dedication to the mission of Collier EMS and emergency medical care is widely acknowledged. Using the presented standards for scoring the appraisal, in these generalized areas I would assign his performance a numerical grade of 8. That said,there is a clear need for Dr. Tober to improve his interpersonal communications skills and expand his leadership role, as Medical Director. It is my opinion that shortcomings in these non technical skill sets is unfortunately limiting his effectiveness. To fully realize the efficiencies and opportunities possible through the consolidation of Collier First Response agencies, the Medical Director must be the leader in establishing cooperation and coordination between EMS, Fire Districts, hospitals, and physicians. To achieve superior results as Medical Director going forward, Dr. Tober must dedicate himself more effectively to consensus building and conflict resolution between these professionals. A numerical grade of 6 would be appropriate for his performance in these challenging but critical areas. With recognition of outstanding record of service to Collier County, and his noteworthy achievement in the development and management of Collier EMS to date, I would assign Dr. Tober an overall numerical grade of 7 for the past year. With improvement in the aforementioned non technical management areas, a superior performance of 9 or higher is clearly possible. Likewise, failure to improve communications and team building shortcomings could result in much poorer performance. With this caveat, I am in support of extending Dr. Tober's contract as Collier Medical Director with a significant measure of concern. I am confident that a cooperative effort between Dr. Tober as Medical Director, Collier County Government staff, first responders in EMS and the Fire Districts, and health care professionals and administrators, many of whom share similar goals and challenges, will lead to improved and superior group performance for our citizens and inspire individual excellence. I am personally dedicated to this effort and have hopes and expectations of improvement across the board.
