Proclamation (Staff/Added Attachment) 4.B) Proclamation for Water Re-Use Week. Mayor Heitmann presented Public Works Director Robert Middleton with a proclamation designating May 18 through May 24, 2025, as Water Reuse Week. Public Works Director Middleton provided a brief overview of the City’s Reclaimed Water System, noting that Naples operates a 100-percent reclaimed water facility. Proclamation (Staff/Added Attachment) 5) PUBLIC COMMENTS Lauren Batlle noted that Community Redevelopment Agency Members would be meeting later that day to discuss the potential acquisition of the Stillwater Cove property. She along with James Whittaker expressed opposition to using CRA funds for the purchase and advocated for investment and improvements within the Riverpark East community. Maria Mair referenced statements made during Public Comment at the May 16, 2025 City Council Special Meeting relating to Naples Pride v. City of Naples and apologized to those who were offended by comments she described as untrue and hateful. She noted that the Naples Pride event had previously occurred without incident and expressed disappointment that the matter had become controversial and politicized, particularly with City Council’s decision not to allow the outdoor drag event. She expressed support for the LGBTQ community and suggested that City Council prioritize legal matters related to the Naples Airport. Branimir Brankov announced the launch of Responsible Government Naples, a new non-profit organization that he said is a non-partisan group committed to ensuring that Naples continues to thrive through advocacy for responsible government that serves all residents. He expressed concern regarding recent actions by the City Council, including what he described as interference with independent boards, decision making that appears disconnected from the broader community’s will, and opposition to the Naples Airport despite survey results indicating public support. Sean Nash referenced Objective Seven of the Future Land Use Element in the Comprehensive Plan, that states, “Ensure the Naples Municipal Airport is managed in a manner which will best serve the overall interests of the community” and questioned what metric City Council would use to gather the community’s sentiment. He referenced the Naples Airport Authority’s survey of residents and stated that 83 percent of residents consider the airport important to the community, while 14 percent view it as unimportant. He asserted that, although City Council has cited noise complaints as a reason for changes regarding the Airport, approximately three-fourths of noise complaints were submitted by the same five households. APPROVAL OF CONSENT AGENDA MOTION by Christman to APPROVE THE CONSENT AGENDA subject to removing Item 7.B for a separate discussion and vote; seconded by Hutchison and unanimously carried, all members present and voting (Barton-yes, Christman-yes, Hutchison-yes, Kramer-yes, Penniman-yes, Petrunoff-yes, Heitmann-yes). 6) MINUTES 6.A) Approval of the April 14, 2025 Workshop Meeting Minutes.

City Council Regular Meeting – May 21, 2025 – 8:31 a.m. 4 Roll call votes by Council Members are recorded in random order, pursuant to City Council policy. disclosures: Penniman / had not had any contact; Barton / had communications with the petitioner, the petitioner’s agent, and City staff; Christman / was familiar with the site, had spoken with the Naples Square Homeowners Association, had spoken with City staff, and had spoken with the petitioner’s representative; Kramer / was familiar with the site, had spoken with City staff, and communicated with the petitioner and residents; Petrunoff / was familiar with the site, and had read letters from residents and had contacted some; Hutchison / was familiar with the site, had contact with residents regarding the subject, had received numerous emails related to the matter, and had kept an open mind and waited to hear the matter in City Council chambers; and Heitmann / was familiar with the site, had not spoken to City staff or the petitioner’s agent, had received over 50 emails from Naples Square residents regarding the matter. City Attorney Matthew McConnell recommended a motion to accept additional emails into the record, noting they were received after the agenda had been published. The following motion was proffered. MOTION by Hutchison to ACCEPT the additional emails into the record that were received following the publication of the agenda; seconded by Petrunoff and unanimously carried, all members present and voting (Barton- yes, Christman-yes, Hutchison-yes, Kramer-yes, Penniman-yes, Petrunoff- yes, Heitmann-yes). Clay Brooker, Attorney at Cheffy Passidomo, P.A., utilized an electronic presentation highlighting the text of Resolution 2024-15454, which was approved in September of 2024, and pertains to the Site Plan Approval for a mixed-use building on the parcel known as The Encore, a proposed development located at 192 Goodlette-Frank Road South. He identified a condition contained in the approval that states “there shall be no permanent structures within dedicated easements. All existing easements identified with permanent structures shall be vacated.” Attorney Brooker noted that vacating the two existing easements is the only outstanding issue delaying the building permit for the Encore building. He announced that the petitioner proposed to replace the vacated easement area by conveying a drainage easement to both the City and the Naples Square Residential Property Owners’ Association. He noted that, upon review, the Public Works Department staff identified that a portion of the proposed vacated easement is located within the area of the Community Redevelopment Agency’s (CRA) Streetscape Project’s stormwater improvements, which include dual 72-inch stormwater pipes. He explained that the petitioner’s civil engineers and the City’s engineers collaborated to develop an alternative design, replacing the two 72-inch pipes with a box culvert, a rectangular-shaped conveyance pipe that requires less space. While the proposed box culvert design would cost $500,000 more than the originally proposed dual 72-inch pipe configuration, Attorney Brooker confirmed that the petitioner had agreed to cover the cost difference. Attorney Brooker then addressed a concern raised by the President of the Naples Square HOA regarding the 3rd Avenue South fountains, which he stated was unrelated to the easement vacation request. He explained that Naples Square residents allege that water runoff from the yet-to-be-developed Encore property has damaged the below-grade fountain pumps. He noted that once the Encore property is developed and its stormwater system is installed, the sheet flow of water into the pump vaults will cease. In the meantime, he said the petitioner has proposed two short-term solutions: raising the pump vault and constructing a temporary swale system on the Encore property to intercept the water sheet flow. Deputy City Engineer Alison Bickett reviewed the staff report and the conditions outlined within it. Public Works Director Robert Middleton provided additional details about the compromise stormwater improvements, noting that without such accommodations, the original dual 72-inch stormwater pipes could potentially encroach into the County easement. Council Member Kramer noted that he recently received emails from Naples Square residents, which all shared common concerns, including sheet flow into the fountains, raised crosswalks,

City Council Regular Meeting – May 21, 2025 – 8:31 a.m. 5 Roll call votes by Council Members are recorded in random order, pursuant to City Council policy. and repairing and upgrading stormwater infrastructure in the area. Public Works Director Middleton commented that the proposed short-term solution of constructing a swale to mitigate stormwater runoff appeared to be a sound concept benefiting both the City and the petitioner, though its effectiveness remains uncertain. Council Member Christman asserted that the ongoing issue of sheet flow into the fountains must be addressed, noting it had resulted in $45,000 in repair costs for the Naples Square HOA last year. He proposed that any motion approved that day includes a requirement for a short-term solution to address the sheet flow, as well as a long-term fix through a stormwater management plan for the site. Additionally, he recommended that the petitioner assume responsibility for any necessary repairs to the water fountain for a minimum of the next three years, which he stated would be a reasonable period to evaluate the effectiveness of the preventative measures. In response, Attorney Brooker expressed no objection to the proposed conditions. Mayor Heitmann voiced concern about the absence of a proper survey accompanying the petition. In response to Council Member Petrunoff, Plans Review Engineer Ed Bliss confirmed that the existing Naples Square stormwater system is in compliance with current Code requirements. He suggested that the issues with the fountain pump may not be the result of flooding but rather could be an internal problem within the fountain system itself. He expressed confidence that flooding issues in the Naples Square area will be resolved upon the completion of the stormwater upgrades. In response to Council Member Petrunoff, Deputy City Engineer Alison Bickett outlined plans to improve the intersections of 3rd Avenue South and 11th Street, as well as 3rd Avenue South and 12th Street. She noted that improvements include the installation of raised crosswalks, which are intended to help calm traffic in the area. The petitioner would pay for a portion of those improvements, she added. Council Member Petrunoff suggested protecting the fountain pumps by housing them in a storm- and-flood-proof vault. Public Works Director Middleton proposed raising the elevation of the pumps to decrease the likelihood of flood damage. In response to Council Member Penniman, Plans Review Engineer Bliss said the City had not received details regarding the petitioner’s short term swale plan. In response to Vice Mayor Hutchison, City Attorney McConnell confirmed that if the motion were denied that day, the conditions outlined in the Resolution would prohibit construction over the existing easements, thereby requiring a complete redesign of that portion of the project. He added that the City Council’s previous site plan approval, contained in Resolution 2024-15454, did not include the vacation of easements. Vice Mayor Hutchison emphasized the importance of understanding the extent of flooding in the Naples Square community by placing greater weight on input from residents rather than relying solely on the design of the stormwater system. He indicated that he could not support the motion due to insufficient information regarding the effectiveness of the proposed stormwater system and its ability to adequately support future growth in the area. In response to Mayor Heitmann, Attorney Brooker clarified that the easement vacation issue and the temporary swale proposal are two distinct issues. Carl A. Barraco, Civil Engineer at Barraco and Associates, Inc. and Engineer of Record for the Naples Square project, provided an overview of his firm’s collaboration with the City’s Public Works staff in developing the alternative stormwater design. He verified that the concrete box culvert design was a superior solution than the originally planned dual 72-inch pipes. He clarified that the Naples Square stormwater system operates as an independent drainage network, surrounded by older water management systems. He recounted a visit to the Naples Square area in June 2024, during which he observed that the

City Council Regular Meeting – May 21, 2025 – 8:31 a.m. 6 Roll call votes by Council Members are recorded in random order, pursuant to City Council policy. roads within Naples Square were free of standing water, while the surrounding streets were submerged. He then described the temporary swale he planned to construct on the Encore property to temporarily protect the Naples Square water fountain pumps. Public Comments: Brenda Geer, Naples Square resident, spoke about flooding in her neighborhood, including standing water up to the second step of her residence. Roberta Berauk (sworn separately), Quattro President and a Naples Square resident, stated that videos she recorded in June 2024 show flooding in her neighborhood. She claimed that roads within Naples Square consistently flood during storms. She also expressed concern about the temporary swale, questioning whether the work is permitted, if the plans have been reviewed, and where the intercepted water will be directed. She urged the City to require the petitioner to perform repairs to the fountains and stormwater drainage system as a condition for approval of the Encore project and vacation of the easement. Maria Mair expressed the opinion that the City Council should reject petitions submitted with incomplete packets. She then shared photographs of flooding on Goodlette-Frank Road at the entrance to Bayfront and stated that, given the amount of new development in the area, a holistic approach to addressing flooding is necessary. Recess: 11:07 a.m. to 11:18 a.m. It is noted for the record that the same Council Members were present when the meeting reconvened. In response to Council Member Kramer, Public Works Director Middleton confirmed nothing was missing from the petitioner’s packet that day. Council Member Kramer stated that there should be no objection to a property owner choosing to pay for and installing a stormwater solution that exceeds City Code requirements. He urged Council Members to consider a motion to approve that day, with the conditions offered by Council Member Christman. Council Member Christman emphasized the need to consider approving the requests to avoid delaying the Community Redevelopment Agency’s Streetscape improvements, which is connected to the stormwater improvements under consideration. Mayor Heitmann expressed the need to add a condition to the motion that would require the petitioner to submit a proper survey. In response, Attorney Brooker asserted that a survey is not required for that type of application, and the application that was submitted satisfies the requirements in the Code. In response to Council Member Petrunoff, Attorney Brooker clarified that the temporary swale is designed to collect water and direct it into the Encore property’s stormwater system. Council Member Petrunoff emphasized the need to investigate conflicting reports and asked for clarification on whether flooding is occurring on the Naples Square property. In response, Deputy Engineer Bickett suggested on-site inspections during rain events. Plans Review Engineer Bliss explained that on-site inspections are often included as part of maintenance plans in many applications, requiring surveys of drainage conveyance systems following a rain event to ensure there are no blockages. Council Member Petrunoff suggested that the Encore application should include similar maintenance requirements. In response, Civil Engineer Barraco confirmed that the Naples Square development does have a maintenance plan that includes sweeping the pervious paver system. He added that the community also features roadside gutters that serve as a failsafe. Plans Review Engineer Bliss explained that water accumulation during storms is normal, but the key indicator of an effective stormwater system is how quickly the water recedes. Deputy City Engineer Bickett stated that the Streetscape improvements, along with the Encore stormwater enhancements, are expected to help alleviate some of the flooding experienced in the Naples Square area. Chair Christman suggested scheduling a future Workshop discussion to address stormwater- related issues. The following motion was proffered. MOTION by Christman to APPROVE RESOLUTION 2025-15616 subject to adding the following conditions: 1) the petitioner and City staff will agree upon a temporary plan for mitigating the water that may flood and reach the

City Attorney Matthew McConnell read the title of the Resolution. Council Member Petrunoff expressed concern about the $99 per tree monthly fee to maintain trees located within the City’s rights-of-way, medians, and parks. She added that it was troubling that the City received only one bid for the job. She suggested implementing an outreach program through trade associations to raise awareness and encourage greater vendor participation in bidding on City projects. City Arborist Heather Shields offered details related to the Contractor’s Service Agreement, which includes a requirement to re-stand trees that fall after hurricane or wind events. She added that the contract covers 75 trees, covering the entire City. She noted that Hannula Landscaping and Irrigation Inc. has handled the job for the past six years and added that bids from other vendors have been two to three times higher than Hannula’s quote. City Manager Gary Young suggested that companies register as vendors on the City’s website to ensure they receive future bid solicitations. Public Comment: None. MOTION BY Petrunoff to APPROVE RESOLUTION 2025-15613; seconded by Hutchison and unanimously carried, all members present and voting (Penniman-yes, Kramer-yes, Hutchison-yes, Christman-yes, Barton-yes, Petrunoff-yes, Heitmann-yes).

City Attorney Matthew McConnell read the title of the Resolutions. This being a quasi-judicial proceeding, Notary Public Jessica Hernandez administered an oath to those intending to offer testimony; all responded in the affirmative. Council Members then made the following ex-parte disclosures: Penniman / had driven by the site, was familiar with the site, and had spoken to the petitioner; Barton / had communications with staff and with the petitioner’s agent; Christman / was familiar with the site, had been in the building many times in its prior use, had met with the petitioner’s representative, and had discussions with staff; Kramer / was familiar with the site, and had met with both staff and the petitioner’s agent; Petrunoff / was familiar with the site, and had spoken to the petitioner; Hutchison / was familiar with the site, had communications with residents, and had no other contact; and Heitmann / was familiar with the site, viewed the Design Review Board hearing related to the matter, and had communications with staff. Maureen Minker, Architect at MHK Architecture, used an electronic presentation to provide an overview of a nonconformity request and a variance request for a residential property at 107 Broad Avenue South. She shared historical background on the residence, noting that it was originally built in 1910, prior to the City’s incorporation and the establishment of the town’s first zoning codes. She added that In 2024, the petitioner acquired the property from the Naples Historical Society, with the intention of reverting it back to single-family occupancy. Architect Minker detailed the proposed modifications to the existing nonconforming structure, including a vertical expansion to elevate the house two feet to conform to the current Design Flood Elevation of 10 feet North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD), and the addition of a pitched roof on the existing garage. The request also includes a second-story cabana above the garage and two dormers on the southern façade. Regarding the Variance Petition, Architect Minker explained that the request included installing a swimming pool, pool deck, and pool mechanical equipment that would encroach into the front yard setback along Gulf Shore Boulevard South. Architect Minker outlined the petitioner’s public outreach efforts and presented four letters of support from neighboring property owners. She then shared site plans and elevation drawings featuring before-and-after renderings of the proposed changes. Michael Behrndt, Landscape Architect at Environmental Design Studio, continued the electronic presentation by overviewing the Landscape and Hardscape Plans. Property owner, Maureen Novak, noted that it was her family’s intention to preserve the essence and charm of the original cottage from 1910.

Planner II Jeffrey Brammer testified on behalf of the City and overviewed the staff reports for Nonconformity and the Variance Petitions, and the conditions contained therein. Council Member Christman expressed concern about the City Council’s lack of consistency in evaluating variance requests. He asked staff to develop recommendations for creating exceptions for minor single-family variance requests and to present their findings at a future Workshop Meeting. In response, Planning Director Erica Martin said staff had been working on an Ordinance revision based on City Council’s consensus reached at a recent meeting. Vice Mayor Hutchison expressed the view that a desire to build a swimming pool should not justify waiving the City’s variance criteria. Public Comments: None.

City Manager Gary Young introduced the item. Tim McCarthy, Partner and Managing Principal at Hart Howerton, utilized an electronic presentation to outline conceptual right-of-way plans for Gulf Shore Boulevard North as part of the Naples Beach Club property redevelopment project. The presentation included information related to paving improvements, paving details, light fixture and bollard details, stormwater management systems, stormwater infrastructure, proposed trees and palms, and planting details. In response to Vice Mayor Hutchison, Principal McCarthy said The Naples Beach Club would enter into a maintenance agreement with the City that requires the Beach Club to maintain and replace the sidewalks, pervious pavers, streetlights, pavement markings, and landscaping located within the Gulf Shore Boulevard North right-of-way. A discussion ensued related to flashing lights at the three pedestrian crossings on Gulf Shore Boulevard North. Principal McCarthy said there are no plans to install traffic signals at any of the pedestrian crossings. In response to Mayor Heitmann, Principal McCarthy said the planned six- foot wide sidewalks comply with the Code Of Ordinances and the PD. Consensus reached to approve the conceptual right-of-way plans for Gulf Shore Boulevard North as Part of the Naples Beach Club Property Redevelopment Project as presented. Agenda Memorandum Presentation GSBN Grading Recess: 4:20 p.m. to 4:29 p.m. It is noted for the record that the same Council Members were present when the meeting reconvened. 13.B) Discussion on Naples Airport Site Plan and Utilization Plan Project Review and Discussion (Supplement 1/Revised Item). City Attorney Matthew McConnell introduced the item, recalling that during the April 14, 2025 City Council Workshop Meeting, he was directed through a Council consensus to prepare a written opinion evaluating whether the Naples Jet Center project was properly approved. The review was to consider the applicable provisions of the Comprehensive Plan, City Code, Land Development Code, relevant regulations, and the current process for approving the Airport Utilization Plan. Assistant City Attorney Andrew Dickman referenced a 1997 memorandum from the City Attorney, which asserted that the City holds planning and zoning authority over the Naples Airport Authority (NAA). He further noted that both the Future Land Use Element and the Transportation Element of the Comprehensive Plan contain provisions authorizing City Council to approve Airport Utilization Plans. He interpreted the 2021 Airport Utilization Plan as a detailed document outlining

City Council Regular Meeting – May 21, 2025 – 8:31 a.m. 12 Roll call votes by Council Members are recorded in random order, pursuant to City Council policy. specific existing and proposed development, rather than a generalized framework. He then opined that the Jet Center, as approved by the Design Review Board (DRB), differs in configuration from what was shown in the 2021 Airport Utilization Plan approved by City Council. Additionally, he stated that he had not found any documentation indicating that the City Council had delegated such approvals to the DRB. He then offered four recommendations for the City Council to add clarity to the Airport site plan approval process: 1) determine by which process the City Council wants future development to be approved; 2) instruct the NAA to immediately submit an accurate Utilization Plan depicting known current and future development; 3) direct the NAA to prepare a Utilization Plan with specificity rather than general colorization; 4) clarify and standardize the terminology in the Comprehensive Plan and City Codes by aligning and consistently using the appropriate terms to describe the Airport Utilization Plans. This will help eliminate confusion caused by the use of multiple or inconsistent terms throughout the documents. Council Member Penniman asked for an opinion on the potential value of City Council Members serving on the NAA Board of Commissioners. In response, Assistant City Attorney Dickman explained that such a change would require an amendment to the State Enabling Act that established the Special Airport District. He noted, however, that the concept is not without precedent, as Council Members currently serve on the Community Redevelopment Agency. In response to Vice Mayor Hutchison, Assistant City Attorney Dickman stated that he has not found documentation indicating that City Council formally delegated its authority to any other entity. However, he noted that the DRB has, over time, assumed certain approval functions typically reserved for City Council, and speculated that this shift may have occurred organically rather than through official action. Council Member Christman suggested that, instead of asking the NAA to resubmit a more accurate version of the 2021 Airport Utilization Plan, City Council should prioritize ensuring that the 2025 Utilization Plan is developed using a different and more effective approach. In response, Assistant City Attorney Dickman noted that Airport Utilization Plans have historically been submitted approximately every five years. He added that the Transportation Element of the Code includes a provision requiring such plans to be updated and adopted on a periodic basis. City Manager Gary Young stated that he has been working to establish a baseline of the inventory and the current conditions at the Naples Airport. He added that the NAA has been cooperating in his efforts. In response to Council Member Petrunoff, City Attorney McConnell outlined the criteria that must be met to qualify as a Dependent District. Council Member Petrunoff recalled that in 2021, the City Council directed the NAA not to construct any new hangars on its property. Despite this, she noted, a site plan for the Jet Center was later submitted to the DRB for design approval. This action ran counter to the City Council’s efforts to reduce Airport traffic and noise, she claimed. Council Member Petrunoff questioned whether the disconnect between the City’s Vision and the NAA’s building volume, which resulted in increased Airport noise, was because of its Executive Director. In response, Assistant City Attorney Dickman recounted that staff sent a letter to Jet Center representatives in 2022 with notification that the submitted application is complete, six months after the Airport Utilization Plan was approved. He stated it was hard to believe the Jet Center concept had not already been conceived when the Utilization Plan was approved and suggested that City Council should question the NAA Executive Director directly on the matter. He noted that the DRB’s approval of the Jet Center was not an isolated incident, but rather part of an established pattern of similar approvals by the Board, noting that the DRB had approved at least eight other projects. Council Member Kramer asked whether it had been determined that construction of the Jet Center would lead to increased air traffic, suggesting instead that the new hangar might simply serve

He expressed concern about the outdated quality of the visuals presented by the NAA during the previous joint meeting with City Council, characterizing it as a dismissive gesture that heightened his skepticism about the operations of the NAA. He suggested that Utilization Plans should be submitted to the City Council annually. He stated that while he was dissatisfied with the approval process that led to the Jet Center being approved by the DRB, he did not support the idea of the City pursuing legal action against the NAA. Mayor Heitmann noted a lack of transparency, highlighting that both the Jet Center and JSX Charter Jet Service were approved without the City Council’s knowledge. She also expressed disappointment in regard to the NAA accepting Federal Grants against the City Council’s request, which she said undermined efforts to achieve local control of the Airport. Lastly, she cited the NAA’s decision to remove the word “Municipal” from the airport’s name as another reason to mistrust the NAA. Mayor Heitmann called for a vote of no confidence in the NAA Executive Director. Public Comment: Maria Mair asserted that the NAA Executive Director misled the City Council and expressed hope that the NAA’s lease would be re-examined. Martin Horneck presented statistics showing a 104 percent increase in jet traffic at Naples Airport since 2014. He expressed concerns about rising noise levels, pollution, and safety risks, and urged the City not to build new airport facilities or permit larger jets. He also called for stronger oversight of the NAA. Janet Ferry, representing the Old Naples Association, stated that the NAA Executive Director is responsible for bringing every construction project before City Council for approval prior to entering the permitting process. She emphasized that this approach provides the highest level of transparency for residents. She added that the NAA is accountable for ensuring its Executive Director complies with City Codes and the terms of the Airport lease. She expressed concern that the public had lost confidence in the NAA and its Director to manage the Airport in accordance with City Council’s direction. Mary Young, representing the Old Naples Association, claimed that the NAA Executive Director failed to seek City Council approval for the Jet Center project during the review of the last Utilization Plan. She expressed concern about the NAA Board delegating responsibilities related to Airport growth and its associated noise, pollution, and safety issues, to the Executive Director. She then cited examples of actions by the Executive Director that she said suggests a pattern of less-than-transparent behavior. She called on the City Council to govern the actions of the NAA and its Executive Director. Sean Nash declined to speak when called. Richard Yovanovich, Attorney stated that he represents the Naples Jet Center. He asserted that his client adhered to the established approval process. He suggested that ambiguities in the City’s Land Development Code and Comprehensive Plan have contributed to the issues surrounding the Jet Center and expressed support for efforts to clarify and eliminate those ambiguities. Mayor Heitmann acknowledged that the Naples Jet Center had been transparent throughout the approval process. However, she noted that the process itself did not meet the policy standards that should have been followed. She expressed the view that the Jet Center should not be penalized for shortcomings in a process that lacked clarity. Vice Mayor Hutchison voiced his support for the recommendations previously presented by the Assistant City Attorney. He emphasized the importance of transparency from the NAA Board and expressed his intention to make a motion calling for the resignation of the NAA Executive Director. In response, City Attorney McConnell clarified that the City Council has authority to terminate only three positions: the City Clerk, the City Manager, and the City Attorney. Council Member Christman added that the focus should be on reform rather than retribution, stressing the importance of collaboration between the City Council, the NAA, and the FAA to implement effective noise-reduction measures. Council Member Barton highlighted two key Airport-related issues that require attention: aircraft noise and the approval process for new construction at the Airport. He noted that addressing the

City Council Regular Meeting – May 21, 2025 – 8:31 a.m. 14 Roll call votes by Council Members are recorded in random order, pursuant to City Council policy. noise issue will be more complex, as it involves the FAA. In contrast, he emphasized that the City Council has the ability to take swift action to improve the construction approval process. Council Member Penniman proposed reconfiguring the NAA Board to include members of the City Council, stating that such a change would strengthen the Council’s influence and involvement in NAA decision-making. Council Member Kramer stated that a resolution to the issues surrounding the NAA is achievable, but only if the City Council presents a unified front and works together collaboratively. Council Member Petrunoff noted that although the actions of the NAA Executive Director have conflicted with the City Council’s direction, the Council does not have the authority to mandate his removal. Citing concerns about increased jet traffic and noise, she proposed inviting representatives from the Naples Jet Center to appear before the Council and provide additional details about the project. She also agreed that the City take a more active role in overseeing Airport operations, and requested that the City Attorney explore steps the City Council could take to address jet noise. Additionally, she pointed out that several questions previously raised by the City Council to the Executive Director remain unanswered and need to be addressed. Mayor Heitmann claimed that past City Council efforts to work with the NAA have been rebuffed. She asserted that the NAA has not done its part to protect the community. Assistant City Attorney Dickman recommended that the City Council adopt a Resolution requiring all Final Site Plan approvals at the Naples Airport to be reviewed and approved directly by the City Council. He clarified that this requirement would apply only to new project requests and would not affect projects already in the review process. He added that the Resolution should include language clearly outlining the level of detail required in site plan submittals. In response to a question from Council Member Kramer, City Attorney McConnell described the proposed action that day as a quick fix, noting that more permanent changes could be made through updates to the Comprehensive Plan and City Codes. MOTION by Hutchison to DIRECT the City Attorney to draft a Resolution addressing the role of City Council having the final approval for all Airport Utilization Plans and general site plan development along with their specific projects, and to present it to City Council as soon as possible; seconded by Petrunoff and unanimously carried, all members present and voting (Kramer- yes, Barton-yes, Penniman-yes, Hutchison-yes, Petrunoff-yes, Christman- yes, Heitmann-yes). Mayor Heitmann raised the possibility that the NAA Executive Director may have been acting under the direction of the NAA Board. She recommended placing this topic on the agenda for a future City Council–NAA Joint Workshop to allow for clarification and open discussion. In response to a second motion proffered by Vice Mayor Hutchison concerning potential actions related to the NAA Executive Director, Council Member Christman expressed concern about the additional workload the proposed actions might place on the City Attorney’s office. He also stated that the motion was based on allegations rather than substantiated charges. Council Member Christman suggested that the approval of the JSX charter jet service could not have been denied due to federal regulations. In response, Vice Mayor Hutchison acknowledged that the service may not have been legally denied but argued that the NAA Executive Director was not obligated to take steps that actively facilitated its approval. Council Member Kramer stated that no further investigation is necessary, as the City Attorney’s office has already completed its review and provided recommendations. He noted that as many as eight similar approvals had previously been handled by the Design Review Board, and he argued that the Jet Center approval was consistent with that established precedent. MOTION by Hutchison to DIRECT the City Attorney, using resources available to his office, to provide the City with options and recommendations

Agenda Memorandum Ordinance Actuarial Study Actuarial Impact Statement Naples Business Impact Estimate 17) PUBLIC COMMENTS Keith Choff noted that the City Council had previously approved $5,000 for dredging in East Naples Bay and stated that Community Redevelopment Agency funds could be used to support dredging efforts extending halfway into the Gordon River Canal within the River Park East neighborhood, as it falls within CRA property. He urged the City Council to move forward and approve the dredging project. In response, Mayor Heitmann clarified that the $5,000 for dredging was a special assessment that the East Naples Bay residents would repay. Liset Zelaya, representing the River Park East Homeowners Association, questioned how the deteriorating condition of the property at 1400 5th Avenue North, Stillwater Cove Apartments, formerly known as Gordon River Apartments, aligns with the City’s Vision Statement to preserve its small-town feel and charm. She urged that funds intended for the purchase of the property be redirected to much needed infrastructure upgrades in that neighborhood. Martha Matson spoke in opposition to the proposed purchase of the Stillwater Cove property. She argued that public transportation could serve workers who reside outside the City. Instead of a City purchase, she suggested pursuing a public–private partnership to acquire the property and convert it into greenspace. Additionally, she recommended that funds be directed toward replacing the neighborhood’s outdated water and sewer infrastructure. 18) COMMUNICATIONS FROM MAYOR, CITY COUNCIL, AND STAFF Council Member Kramer shared visitor statistics from the Tourist Development Council (TDC) indicating a five percent decline in tourism to Naples over the past year, along with a decrease in visitor spending. In addition, he questioned the practicality of dredging only half of the Gordon River, as suggested during Public Comments, and offered his opinion regarding the Naples Pride event. Council Member Petrunoff inquired whether the correct outfall valves had been installed in Swan Lake and asked for an update on the written procedures of the weir boards. In response, City Manager Gary Young stated that he had recently received that information and would share it with Council Members shortly. She also relayed concerns from East Naples Bay residents about stormwater runoff associated with the new hotel in the area. Additionally, she noted that residents raised issues with the Traffic Study conducted for the project which would divert traffic into their neighborhood. In addition, Council Member Petrunoff expressed concern over the rising cost of the East Naples Bay dredging project, particularly the portion near the Naples Bay Resort. She stated that the actual cost of the dredging in that area significantly exceeded the original $150,000 estimate. She questioned whether an amendment to a Special Assessment might be necessary to shift the additional expense to the Resort. In response, City Manager Young explained that the Special Assessment for the Naples Bay dredging project was already set and could not be adjusted. To increase the contribution, he said the assessment process would need to start anew.
