WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the MPO, pursuant to the power conferred upon it by Section 339.175, Florida
Statutes, and Article 5 of the Amended And Restated Interlocal Agreement for Creation of the
Collier Metropolitan Planning Organization (the " Interlocal Agreement ") between the Florida
Department of Transportation ( "FDOT "); Collier County (the "County "); the City of Marco
Island; the City of Naples; and Everglades City, dated May 10, 2005 may employ personnel
and /or enter into agreements, with local and/or State agencies to utilize the staff resources of

its responsibilities and obligations as required by law, and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the aforesaid Interlocal Agreement executed between the County, the
City of Marco Island, the City of Naples, Everglades City and the FDOT, it is contemplated that
County personnel will perform the substantial portion of each task provided for in 23 Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 450 and Chapter 339.175 Florida Statutes as necessary to carry
out the continuing, cooperative and comprehensive transportation planning process mandated by
Federal regulations as a condition precedent to the receipt of Federal capital or operating
assistance in the urbanized area, and
WHEREAS, in 2007, the Florida Legislature's House Bill 985 amended Section 339.175, Florida
Statutes, and other sections of law in an attempt to bring clarity and uniformity to Metropolitan
Planning Organizations' administrative structure, powers and responsibilities, particularly
amending Section 339.175(5), Florida Statutes, to clarify that a Metropolitan Planning
Organizations' executive director reports directly to his or her Governing Board, and that the
executive director and staff are employed by the Metropolitan Planning Organization or through
a staff services agreement between the Metropolitan Planning Organization and another
governmental entity.
WHEREAS, it is deemed by the parties to be appropriate and necessary that the duties and
obligation of the County, in relation to its role as the staff to the MPO, be defined and fixed by
