Agenda 01/27/2026 Item #16A13 (Recognize and appropriate revenue in the amount of $334,066.74 for the continued operation of the County-owned Marinas – Cocohatchee River Park Marina, Caxambas Marina, and Port of the Islands Marina)1/27/2026
Item # 16.A.13
ID# 2025-5056
Executive Summary
Recommendation to recognize and appropriate revenue in the amount of $334,066.74 for the continued operation of the
County-owned Marinas – Cocohatchee River Park Marina, Caxambas Marina, and Port of the Islands Marina – and
authorize all necessary Budget Amendments.
OBJECTIVE: To recognize and appropriate revenue in the amount of $334,066.74 at the County-owned Marinas until
a new concessionaire is secured to provide daily onsite management. Funding for these operations was not included in
the adopted Fiscal Year 2026 budget due to unforeseen circumstances.
CONSIDERATIONS: On July 11, 2023, the County entered into Agreement No. 22-8023 with BluWater Florida, LLC
to provide daily onsite management of four County-owned marinas. Services included retail operations, live bait and
fuel sales, and other related amenities.
On September 15, 2025, BluWater notified the County that it had ceased all operations at the marina facilities effective
September 14, 2025, constituting a material breach of contract. This unexpected termination left the County without an
operating vendor and without budgeted resources to sustain marina operations in FY 2026.
In response, County staff have maintained limited operations, primarily fuel sales, in accordance with Resolution No.
2023-87 (Parks Fee Policy). Fuel pricing at County-owned marinas is established as the cost multiplied by 135 percent
to determine the retail price. Costs are adjusted periodically based on the most recent delivery price of REC-90 and
diesel fuel at each marina location. The 35 percent markup is intended to offset marina operating expenses, including
staffing, utilities, fuel systems, and other operational costs. All applicable Florida taxes apply. Based on current trends,
revenue collections are anticipated to be $334,066.74 through January 2026, of which $260,671.74 has already been
received.
To restore full operations, the Procurement Services Division issued Solicitation No. 25-8613 on October 15, 2025, to
secure a new vendor to manage the marinas. Staff continues to work through the procurement process to restore full
services for the community as expeditiously as possible.
Additionally, on October 28, 2025, the Board approved Agenda Item #16.A.14, authorizing a Settlement Agreement
with Seminole Petroleum for fuel inventory remaining at the time of BluWater’s departure. The settlement amount of
$23,415.50 was paid from the division’s operational budget and is not included in the adopted FY2026 budget.
FISCAL IMPACT: A budget amendment is required to recognize appropriate revenue in the amount of $334,066.74 in
Fund 0001, Marina Operations cost center (156364). Purchase orders for fuel and related operating expenses will be
adjusted as necessary. Additional Budget Amendments will be required to recognize additional actual revenues as they
are collected.
FY 2026 Actual Revenue October through December:
Month Actual Revenue
October $ 38,071.47
November $ 68,340.77
December $ 154,259.50
Total $ 260,671.74

Executive Summary
Recommendation to authorize payment for fuel sold by Seminole Petroleum, operated by the Seminole Tribe of Florida,
Inc., to BluWater Florida, LLC that was present in the fuel tanks for use at the following Collier County-owned marinas
located at Port of the Islands Park, Goodland Boat Park, Caxambas Boat Park, and Cocohatchee River Park, and to
approve the attached Settlement Agreement and Release memorializing the Parties’ intent to resolve this payment for
fuel under the legal doctrine of quantum meruit. (Fiscal Impact: $23,415.50)
OBJECTIVE: To authorize payment for fuel supplied to the County’s vendor BluWater Florida, LLC (“BluWater”) by
Seminole Petroleum, operated by the Seminole Tribe of Florida, Inc. (“Seminole Petroleum”), which existed in the fuel
tanks at Collier County-owned marinas at the time that BluWater ceased operations in breach of its contract with the
County.
CONSIDERATIONS: On July 11, 2023, BluWater entered into Agreement No. 22-8023 (the “Agreement”) with the
County to provide onsite daily management of four County-owned marinas, which included retail sales and services,
providing live bait, fuel sales and other related services. On September 15, 2025, BluWater notified the County that it
had ceased operations at all County marina facilities as of the close of business on September 14, 2025. Blu-Water’s
sudden and material breach of its contract with the County is under review by the Office of the County Attorney
working directly with County staff to assess the resulting measure of damages. As part of that review, staff was directed
to immediately take inventory of any sundry goods at the marinas, including the quantity of fuel that existed as of the
date that BluWater ceased its operations.
BluWater purchased its fuel from Seminole Petroleum, which has a physical address at 3170 S. Horseshoe Drive,
Naples, Florida 34104. BluWater purchased the fuel supplied directly from Seminole Petroleum and the County is not
in privity of contract with Seminole Petroleum for the fuel that was purchased and pumped into the tanks at its marinas.
At the time that BluWater ceased operations on September 14, 2025, the County observed and photographed the fuel
tank registers showing the following gallons of fuel present in its tanks:
Marina Gallons of Fuel Dollar Amount Purchase Price Per Gallon
Port of the Island 3686 $10,984.28 $2.98000
Caxambas Boat Park 1962 $5,846.76 $2.98000
Cocohatchee River Park 1065 (fuel)
1259 (diesel)
$3,155.60
$3,428.86
$2.96300
$2.72348
Total Dollar Amount: $23,415.50
The above fuel existing at the marinas constitutes inventory left by BluWater at the time that it breached the Agreement
with the County, and could arguably be liened against the existing revenue that BluWater owes the County. However,
Seminole Petroleum was not paid for this fuel (and actually a greater amount than that present upon inspection by the
County on September 14, 2025) and the County is enjoying the benefit of continuing to provide this much-valued
service to the public.
Staff is recommending that the Board authorize a payment to Seminole Petroleum for the confirmed value of the fuel at
the time that BluWater ceased operations at the above marinas in the total amount of $23,415.50 as memorialized in the
attached Settlement Agreement and Release under the equitable theory of quantum meruit. Staff further requests that
the Board approve the attached Settlement Agreement and Release with Seminole Petroleum that limits the County’s
liability to payment for the amount of fuel that existed in its tanks at the time it retook operations of its marinas from
BluWater because the County has no contractual duty to remit payment for any additional fuel that may have been
purchased by BluWater from Seminole Petroleum.
This item aligns with the Strategic Plan goal of Responsible Governance by demonstrating the County’s leadership
through intentional, purpose-driven actions that reinforce our ongoing support for local businesses.

Item # 16.A.14
ID# 2025-4475
FISCAL IMPACT: Payment of the fuel existing at the County-owned as of September 14, 2025, is valued at
$23,415.50. Funds are available from the divisional operating budget 0001-156364.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There are no Growth Management Impacts associated with this Executive
Summary.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed by the Office of the County Attorney. Broadly speaking,
quantum meruit is an equitable legal principle to determine the amount to be paid for services when no contract exists or
when there is doubt as to the amount due for the work performed but done under circumstances when payment could be
expected. Here there was no contract in place and although Seminole Petroleum could not reasonably believe that the
County would provide payment because they were not in a contractual relationship, the County benefits from the
availability of the fuel left behind by BluWater (otherwise at the expense of Seminole Petroleum) so that it can continue
to serve the recreating public. As set forth herein and in the attached back-up, staff has confirmed the quantity and value
of the fuel that existed in the County-owned marina fuel tanks at the time that BluWater ceased operations and has
concluded that it would be fair and equitable to reimburse Seminole Petroleum in the amount of $23,415.50 for that fuel.
The attached Settlement Agreement and Release will limit the County’s exposure to reimburse only for the fuel present
as of September 14, 2025. Accordingly, this item is approved as to form and legality, and requires a majority vote for
approval.—SRT
RECOMMENDATIONS: To authorize payment for fuel sold by Seminole Petroleum, operated by the Seminole Tribe
of Florida, Inc., to BluWater Florida, LLC at the County-owned marinas located at Port of the Islands Park, Goodland
Boat Park, Caxambas Boat Park, and Cocohatchee River Park, and to approve the attached Settlement Agreement and
Release so that the payment for this fuel may be processed and paid by the Clerk’s Office under the equitable theory of
quantum meruit.
