CONSIDERATIONS: The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board has 1 vacancy due to a resignation, representing the Urban area. Representation on this board consists of 1 member from the Immokalee Community Park District, and 6 members from the Naples and Urban Area Community Park District. This 7 member board advises the Board of County Commissioners on matters pertaining to the acquisition, development and programs involving the County's park facilities. Terms are 4 years. A list of the current membership is included in the backup. Mr. Fran Donohue resigned on May 27, 2009. A press release was issued and resumes were received from the following 2 interested citizens: APPLICANT CATEGORY DlST ELECTOR ADV. COMM. Urban Area Urban Area Floodplain Mana ement Camm None ATTENDANCE: N/A COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: Ranked as follows: - Bart Zino Phillip Brougham FISCAL IMPACT: NONE GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: NONE LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The County Attorney's Office has concerns regarding a potential ethics conflict for Mr. Zino. On or about February 3, 2009, the County Attorney Office reviewed a similar potential ethics conflict with Mr. Zino and recommended that Mr. Zino resi!:,'11 from the P ARAB to avoid the appearance of impropriety and to protect Mr. Zino, his company and the BCC from any negative public scrutiny. Section 112.313(12), Fla. Stat., provides a waiver provision from any potential conflict under Sections 112.313(3), Doing business with one's agency, and 112.313(7), Conflicting employment or contractual relationship, Fla. Stat. However, in our opinion this may not be an appropriate example for waiver as Mr. Zino's firm provides construction services directly to the Parks and Recreation Department. The County Attorney Office has recommended waiver in the past for other advisory board members based on the fact that the work involved was not directly related to the advisory board's work. For example, this Office recommended in favor of a waiver for another PARAB member whose firm is providing services to the lmmokalee MSTU, as the work provided in Immokalee is not work that would foreseeably be discussed or reviewed ,~ by the P ARAB. Should the Board decide to grant a waiver for any potential ethics violation, a two-thirds majority vote is required. - JAK and CMG Agenda Item No. 9G September 15, 2009 RECOMMENDA TION: That the Board of County Commissioners consid~gEtll'eof 23 recommendation for appointment, appoint 1 member, and direct the County Attorney to prepare a resolution confirming the appointment.

K1atzkow. County AttomeY~ , r rC\f:) Colleen M. Greene, AssIstant County AttorneyV'- THROUGH: FROM: SUBJECT: Potential Ethics Violation Associated with P ARAB Membership This issue presented is whether there is a potential ethics violation associated with your membership on the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board C'P ARAB") and your company doing business with Collier County. In summary, there may be a potential ethics violation as discussed in this memorandum and further reviewed in the attached InfonnaI Opinion provided by the Florida Commission on Ethics (dated January 30,2009). Summary of facts: It is my understanding that you are the President of Professional Building Systems ("PBS") which is a local construction company competing for contracts on Collier County public construction projects. As a PARAS member, you are asked to review the annual Parks and Recreation budget and proposed park projects. PARAB may also be asked to review plans for proposed parks' projects. In fact, PBS may be involved in preparing the plans. As an advisory board member you are considered a public officer and subject to the restrictions found in Chapter J 12, Fla. Stat.. Code of Ethics for Public Officers and Employees. PBS has Submitted sealed bids for several COlIDty projects and in fact may be awarded several County construction contracts (including Connor Park and a soccer field). Florida Statutes: Section 112.313(3), Fla. Stat., Doing business with one's agency, provides in relevant part: "Nor shall a public officer or employee, acting in a private capacity, rent, lease, or sell any realty, goods, or services to the officer's or employee's own agency, if he or she is a state officer or employee, or to any political subdivision or any agency thereof, if he or she is serving as an officer or employee ofiliat political subdivision." Agenda Item No. 9G September 15, 2009 Page 5 of 23 Section 112.313(7)(a), Fla. Stat., Conflicting employment or contractual relationship, provides in relevant part: "No public officer or employee of an agency shall have or hold any employment or contractual relationship with any business entity or any agency which is subject to the regulation of, or is doing business with, an agency of which he or she is an officer or employee, excluding those organizations and their officers who, when acting in their official capacity, enter into or negotiate a collective bargaining contract with the state or any municipality, county, or other political subdivision of the state; nor shall an offlcer or employee of an agency have or hold any employment or contractual relationship that will create a continuing or frequently recurring conflict between his or her private interests and the performance of his or her public duties OT that would impede the full and faithful discharge of his or her public duties." Discussion: It appears that both of these statutory provisions would arguably be violated were PBS to be awarded a County contract on these public construction projects. There are exemptions which may apply and allow PBS to be awarded the projects and allow you to remain on the P ARAB. One exemption requires that you disclose the potential conflict to the Collier County Supervisor of Elections at the time that the sealed bid is submitted. (See 9 1 12.313(l2)(b), Fla. Stat.) Obviously, the time for compliance has passed on at least two of the projects. This exemption may be available in the future. The second potential exemption is to request that the Board of County Commissioners ("'BCC") waive any potential violation prior to award of each construction project. (See 9 112.313(12), Fla. Stat.) At this time, you may request that the BCC waive any potential ethics violation; however there is still the public perception of an impropriety. Although any technical violation may be waived, this waiver may bring negative light to yourself, your company, and the BCe. It is my opinion that an ethics conflict under g 112.313(3) or 9 112.313(7), Fla. Stat., would exist if your construction firm is awarded a contract and you remain on the advisory board. It is my recommendation that you consider resigning from the P ARAB to avoid the appearance of impropriety and to protect you, your company and the BCC from any negative public scrutiny. If you wish to explore this issue further, you may request a formal opinion from the Florida Commission on Ethics.

StaL, for a Collier County Advisory Board Member if the member's company enters into a construction contract with Collier County for a project arguably related to the Board Member's Advisory Board. Dear Mr. Claypool: County staff has asked the County Attorney's Office to determine whether a potential conflict exists for one of its advisory board members whose construction fIrm may be awarded two County construction projects. I contacted Ethics Commission Attorney Julie Costas about the potential conflict under sections 112.313(3) or 11 2. 313(7), Fla. Stat. One of my concerns is regarding the application of ~ 112.313(12), Fla. Stat. Attorney Costas advised that ~ I 12.313(12) may be read in the alternative, for example, either the Board member seeks a waiver from the Board of COllilty Commissioners or the Board member may satisfy one of the other exemptions. In this case, S 112.313(12)(b) may apply; however based on the specifIc facts and timing, this is no longer an option for the construction projects at issue. A second concern is whether the contractual relationship between the Board member's construction company and the County creates a recurring conflict of interest such to require the Board member to resign from the County advisory board. 3301 East Tamiami Trail - Naples, Florida]4 112-4902 - Phone (239) 252-8400 - FaCSImile (239) 252-6300 Agenda Item No. 9G September 15, 2009 Page 7 of 23 Philip Claypool Page Two January 22,2009 The relevant facts are as follows: . The Board member serves on a COIlllty advisory board which makes recommendations to a certain Cmmty Department. The advisory board reviews the annual budget including proposed projects for this County Department. . One of the functions of this board is to "consider and analyze the development of **'" facilities constructed on County properties." . This advisory board is limited to solely an advisory function, and therefore is an "advisory body" as defined by 9 112.312(1), Fla Stat. . The Board member is the President of a local construction firm that regularly bids on Collier County construction projects including projects that are identified on the annual budget reviewed by the advisory board_ . The advisory board does not participate in the award of bids; this is done through the County's Purchasing Department. Further. the advisory board will not have any supervisory role over the construction project. However the advisory board may be asked to review the project design. (This of course could be handled as a voting conflict.) . Exemption ~ 112.313(12)(b) may be relevant as the construction projects are awarded through competitive sealed bidding; however the Board member was apparently not aware of the potential conflict or exemptions and did Dot file a disclosure with the Supervisor of Elections as required by this section. . A concern under the sealed competitive bidding is that the Board member reviews the annual budget which includes proposed projects and allocated funds. Of course this budget is a public record and available to all potential bidders_ . It is my understanding that since g 1 12.3 13 (12)(b ) is no longer available to this Board member, he may seek a waiver from the Board of County Commissioners. This waiver is somewhat "after the fact" based on the fact that the sealed bids have been opened but the bid has not yet been awarded by the Board of County Commissioners. . With respect to a potential conflict under sections 112.313(3) and 112.313(7). the Office of the County Attorney has advised that there is a potential conflict, under one or both of these sections, and that the Board member may avail himself of one of the exemptions under subsection (12). However, there remains a concern under 330 t E~t Tamiarnl TT'dil- Naples. Florida 34112-4902 - Phone (239) 252-8400 - Facsimile (239) 252-6300 Agenda Item No. 98 September 15, 2009 Page 8 of 23 Philip Claypool Page Three January 22, 2009 subsection (J 2) due to whether it is indeed interpreted to be "in the alternative" and due to the timing of this specific issue. It remains the opinion of the Office of the County Attorney that a substantial risk of a conflict under 9 112.313(3) or 9 112.313(7), FIa Stat., would exist if this Board member's construction firm is awarded a contract and the Board member remains on the advisory board. Attorney Costas advised that this Board member should be counseled about the appearance of an impropriety, and the Office of the County Attorney agrees. The question remains as to whether this Board member should be counseled to resign from the advisory board to avoid drawing negative attention to himself or the County. Please contact me directly if you need any additional information or if there is any reason that this request cannot be handled informally. Thank you for consideration of this matter.

Greene, Esquire Assistant County Attorney Office of the County Attorney 3301 East Tamiami Trail Naples, FL 34112-4902 Re: Advisory Opinion Request Dear Ms. Greene: I was asked to respond to your inquiry concerning a member of a County advisory board whose construction company may enter into two contracts with the County. To the extent that I can provide you with guidance using previous opinions rendered by the Commission, I will. Section 112,313(3), Florida Statutes, prohibits a public officer from acting in his private capacity (or through his company) to sell services to his own agency or any subdivision thereof. Section 112.313(7)(a), Florida Statutes, prohibits a public officer from having a contractual relationship with a business entity that is doing business with his agency, or from having a contractual relationship which creates a continuing or frequently recurring conflict between private interests and the performance of public duties, or which impedes the full and faithful discharge of public duties. Both of these provisions would be violated were the Board member's company to enter into contracts with the County unless one of the exemptions in Section 112.313(12), Florida Statutes, were applied to waive the conflict. In your letter, you explain the circumstances that preclude the conflicts being waived through the competitive bid exemption in Section 112.313(12)(b), Florida Statutes, inasmuch as that exemption requires disclosure prior to or at the time of the bid's submission, and that process was not followed here. Therefore, it would seem that only the waiver provision would be available to waive the conflicts. Colleen M. Greene, Esquire February 3,2009 Page 2 Agenda Item No. 9G September 15, 2009 Page 10 of 23 In CEO 94-36, the Commission dIscussed the waiver provision in Section 112.313(12), Florida Statutes, where members of an advisory board were employed by or contracting with entities selected to do business with the county. That opinion concluded that the conflicts could be waived, but that concerns about misuse of office (Section 112.313(6), Florida Statutes) and use of information (Section 112.313(8), Florida Statutes), could not be adjudicated in the context of the opinion. Here, I concur in your advice with regard to the two contracts presently being negotiated-unless the County Commission votes to waive the conflict under the process outlined in Section ] 12.313(12), Florida Statutes, the Board member would be in violation of Sections 112.313(3) and 112.313(7)(a), Florida Statutes. With regard to future contracts, the process outlined in Section 1 12.313(12)(b ), Florida Statutes, could apply to waive any conflicts as long as the various requirements are met. Note that this exemption addresses "sealed, competitive bids" and not "requests for proposals" or other fom1s of negotiated purchasing. See CEO 89-48 in this regard. Finally, with regard to whether the Board member should be counseled to resign because of concerns about the appearance of impropriety where he continues to seek contracts from the County, I am not able to provide specific guidance. However, CEO 90-30 contains some useful discussion ofthe intent and policy of the Code of Ethics, and perhaps this discussion would help him understand why it is better to avoid situations which may not violate the Code of Ethics per se but should still be avoided. I hope this response is helpful. If our office can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me. The cited opinions are available on our website at www.ethics.state.fl.us. Sincerely, JULIA COBB COSTAS Senior Attorney CEO 90-30 -- April 26, 1990 Agenci"ooJr-m ~G September 15. 2009 Page 11 of 23 CEO 90-30 -- April 26, 1990 CONFLICT OF INTEREST DEP ARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION DISTRICT DEPUTY ASSISTANT SECRETARY SERVING AS REAR COMMODORE OF YACHT CLUB SEEKING D.E.R. PERMIT To: Robert V Kriegel, Deputy Assistant Secretary, Department of Environmental Regulation. Northwest District (Pensacola) SUMMARY: No prohibited conflict of interest is created where a district deputy assistant secretary of the Department of Environmental Regulation is a member of and serves as Rear Commodore of a local yacht club which is seeking a permit from the Department. Membership in a yacht club is not generally the type of contractual relationship which would motivate the deputy secretary to disregard his public duties. However, he should remove himself from any decision of the Department regarding the club, or any decision by the club regarding permitting by the Department, in order to avoid potentially violating Section 112.313(6), Florida Statutes, and to avoid even the appearance of impropriety. QUESTION: Does a prohibited conflict of interest exist where you, a Deputy Assistant Secretary with the Northwest District of the Department of Environmental Regulation, serve as an officer in a private yacht club seeking a permit from the Department? Under the described circumstances, your question is answered in the negative. In your letter of inquiry and in a telephone conversation with our staff, you have advised that you are employed with the Department of Environmental Regulation as Deputy Assistant Secretary in the Northwest District. In this position, you oversee all of the licensing and regulatory functions conducted through your District office. You also advise that you are a member of a local yacht club. You paid $340.00 for a membership certificate to the club. Were you to resign from membership you would return the certificate and the $340.00 would be refunded. In addition, you rent a boat slip from the club's marina. This year) you were elected to serve as Rear Commodore of the yacht club. In this uncompensated position, your primary responsibilities involve overseeing the yacht club's facilities, You advise that the yacht club is in the process of expanding its marina capacity, which will require a permit from the Department of Environmental Regulation. That permit will be issued by the Bureau of Wetland Resource Management in Tallahassee. Your department also must regulate various activities of the yacht club related to construction, drainage into the waterway, and water quality. You advise that you have removed yourself from any regulatory issues affecting the yacht club. You question whether a conflict of interest is created by your relationship with the club. The Code of Ethics for Public Officers and Employees provides in relevant palt: CONFLICTING EMPLOYMENT OR CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIP.--No public officer or employee ofan agency shall have or hold any employment or contractual relationship with any business http://www.ethics.state.f1.us/opinions/9()/ceo%2090-030.htm . 2/3/2009 CEO 90-30 -- April 26, 1990 Agend~~W~G September 15, 2009 Page 12 of 23 entity or any agency which is subject to the regulation of, or is doing business with, an agency of which he is an officer or employee. . . ; nor shall an officer or employee of an agency have or hold any employment or contractual relationship that will create a continuing or frequently recurring conflict between his private interests and the performance of his public duties or that would impede the full and faithful discharge of his public duties. This provision prohibits a public officer from being employed by, or having a contractual relationship with, a business entity which is doing business with or is regulated by his agency. The yacht club clearly is regulated by your Department in the areas of permitting, drainage into the waterway, water quality, and construction. Technically, therefore, your contractual relationship with the club would appear to be prohibited by Section 112.3l3(7)(a), Florida Statutes. We note, however, that Section 112.311 (1), Florida Statutes, in expressing the legislative intent and policy for use in construing the Standards of Conduct for Public Officers and Employees, states: It is essential to the proper conduct and operation of government that public officials be independent and impartial and that public office not be used for private gain other than the remuneration provided by law. The public interest, therefore, requires that the law protect against any conflict of interest and establish standards for the conduct of elected officials and government employees in situations where conflicts may exist. Section 112.311(5), Florida Statutes, states: It is hereby declared to be the policy of the state that no officer or employee of a state agency or of a county, city, or other political subdivision of the state, and no member of the Legislature or legislative employee, shall have any interest, financial or otherwise, direct or indirect; engage in any business transaction or professional activity; or incur any obligation of any nature which is in substantial conflict with the proper discharge of his duties in the public interest. To implement this policy and strengthen the faith and confidence of the people of the state in their government, there is enacted a code of ethics setting forth standards of conduct required of state, county, and city officers and employees, and of officers and employees of other political subdivisions of the state, in the performance of their official duties. It is the intent of the Legislature that this code shall serve not only as a guide for the officiaL conduct of public servants in this state, but also as a basis for discipline of those who violate the provisions of this part. These provisions indicate that the Code of Ethics is directed at situations where a public employee is engaging in private business transactions or professional activities, or is incurring private obligations which impede the public employee in fulfilling, or conflict with, his public duties. It does not appear that membership in a social or recreational club is the type of contractual relationship which would involve a public employee's personal business interests or obligations; nor is it the type of relationship which is likely to tempt him to place personal interests above those of the public. Therefore, we are of the opinion that Section 112.316, Florida Statutes, should be applied to the situation as described. Section 112.316 states: CONSTRUCTION.--It is not the intent of this part, nor shall it be http:/h\'W\v .ethi cs. state.fl. us/opi nions/90/ceo %2090-0 30.htm 2/3/2009 CEO 90-30 -- April 26, 1990 Agend~~W~G September 15, 2009 Page 13 of 23 construed, to prevent any officer or employee of a state agency or county, city, or other political subdivision of the state or any legislator or legislative employee from accepting other employment or following any pursuit which does not interfere with the full and faithful discharge by such officer, employee, legislator, or legislative employee of his duties to the state or the county, city, or other political subdivision of the state involved. We bring to your attention, however, Section 112.313(6), Florida Statutes, which provides: MISUSE OF PUBLIC POSITlON.--No public officer or employee of an agency shall corruptly use or attempt to use his official position or any property or resource which may be within his trust, or perfornl his official duties, to secure a special privilege, benefit, or exemption for himself or others. This section shall not be construed to conflict with s. 104.31. Any attempt to use your official position to obtain a benefit or regulatory exemption for your yacht club could constitute a violation of this provision. We therefore suggest that to avoid even the appearance of impropriety you, continue to remove yourself from involvement with regulatory decisions by the Department of Environmental Regulation concerning the yacht club, as well as from any decisions by the club concerning the permitting process or any regulatory activity by the Department of Environmental Regulation. Accordingly, under the circumstances described, we find that you are not prohibited by the Code of Ethics from serving as an officer in the yacht club while remaining employed by the Department of Environmental Regulation. hhp :/lvNo,'\v.ethjcs.state. fl us/opinion s/90/ceo%,2090-03 0 .btm 2/3/2009 MEMORANDUM Agenda Item No. 9G September 15, 2009 Page 14 of 23 DATE: June 26, 2009 Barry Williams, Parks and ReC~irec.tor Sue Filson, Executive Manager Board of County Commissione .; TO: FROM: RE: Parks and Recreation Advisory Board As you know, we currently have vacancies on the above-referenced advisory committee.
