EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to waive contractual payment obligations for Parks and Recreation
concessionaires from March 1 through May 31, 2020 due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.
OBJECTIVE: To avoid additional financial distress on Parks and Recreation concessionaires as a result
of the COVID-19 Pandemic.
CONSIDERATIONS: On March 12, 2020, Governor Ron DeSantis issued Executive Order #20-52,
declaring a State of Emergency exists in the State of Florida. On March 16, 2020, the Board of County
Commissioners (Board) declared a local State of Emergency Resolution No. 2020 -50. Shortly thereafter,
the Parks and Recreation Division (Division) began closing most amenities within both the regional and
community parks.
The Division has a variety of concessionaire agreements including, but not limited to Marina, Pickleball
and Tennis operations, food and beverage services, beach concessions with rental of umbrellas,
paddleboards, cabanas, beach chairs, sales of beach-related sundries, caps, shirts, and other like services.
Concessionaire revenues are due by the 15th of each month for the preceding month.
As outlined in the table below, the Division received $43,413.27 in contractual revenue for February with
$7,452.01 in revenue still outstanding from concessionaires from sales and rentals.

Historical
To avoid additional financial distress for our contracted concession vendors, staff recommends waiving
contractual payment obligations for Parks and Recreation concessionaires totaling $36,877.69 from
March 1 - April 30, 2020, due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. Additionally, staff recommends that the
Board waive collection of the May 2020 concession revenues to further assist each concessionaire in
getting their businesses more financially stable. Concession revenues historically average $35,000 in the

month of May.
FISCAL IMPACT: Staff estimates that waiving concession revenues for the months of March, April and
May would result in a total loss of between $70,000 and $75,000 in operating revenue budgeted in
individual cost centers within the Parks and Recreation Division General Fund (001) and the MSTD
General Fund (111) budget.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no impact to the Growth Management Plan from this
action.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This Item has been reviewed by the County Attorney, is approved as to
form and legality and requires majority vote for approval. By approving this Item, the Board would be
finding as a public purpose that financially assisting our longstanding concessionaires, many of whom are
in financial distress as a result of our closing Collier County’s parks and beaches, is in the public’s
interest, falls within the Board’s general economic development powers, and is little different from the
many grants now being issued to help businesses adversely affected by the pandemic. -JAK
RECOMMENDATION: To waive contractual payment obligations for Parks and Recreation
concessionaires from March 1 - May 31, 2020, due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.
