Originally from Dusseldorf, Germany, Tammi speaks fluent German, which comes in handy more than you would think! Her supervisor says you can see the children's faces light up when she tells them about the turtles in their native language. We are so lucky to have you, Tammi! Keep up the great work! MEMORANDUM TO: HISTORIC PRESERVATION/CONSERVATION COMMITTEE FROM: BEN CARSWELL, DIRECTOR OF CONSERVATION SUBJECT: CONSERVATION UPDATE DATE: 7/12/2016 Research and Monitoring • Wilson’s Plover nesting season is winding up for the season with 16 nests documented so far. Five of these nests made it to hatching, producing 14 chicks, none of which appear to have survived beyond two weeks and were likely taken by natural predators. A sixth hatch is anticipated today and is expected to be our last nest/brood for the season. • The DNR Wildlife Resources Division unexpectedly refused to grant a permit for the planned bobcat tracking research. We are currently redesigning our bobcat research plans to do genetic and prey-content analysis of bobcat scat to try to move the ball forward in gaining the necessary knowledge to potentially recommend conservation management actions to promote and maintain a bobcat population on Jekyll Island. Eventually DNR WRD buy-in will be necessary for this effort to be fruitful. • On site meetings with the project Principal Investigators for the UGA plant/deer study were held. We’ve laid a strong foundational structure for the Ph.D. student, who begins with UGA in August, to build upon. In depth progress will begin at that point and I recommend that the student give a preliminary presentation to the JIA Board once he’s up to speed this Fall. Management and Planning • Conservation staff participated in a cross-organization planning/evaluation session with the goal of preparing to nominate the Georgia Coast as a Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network “Landscape of Hemispheric Importance”. Jekyll Island would be part of this designation if it goes forward. Partner requirements would primarily include committing to shorebird conservation as an ongoing priority, which is already something we do as stipulated by the conservation plan. Outreach, Education, and Community Interface • Our efforts this past Spring with the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary for Golf Bioblitz, led by Conservation Coordinator Yank Moore, proved to be very successful. Jekyll Island placed in the top three for all categories of the competition including 1st place for number of participants, 3rd place for total # of species counted, and 2nd place in the photo contest.

NORTON, GSTC DIRECTOR AND VETERINARIAN; JOHN MARR, GSTC GENERAL MANAGER SUBJECT: GEORGIA SEA TURTLE CENTER UPDATE – JUNE 2016 DATE: 7/12/2016 I fell in love with this place because they rescue, rehabilitate, and release sea turtles. Instead of a "zoo" or "sanctuary" they actually care for these amazing creatures and put them back in their natural habitat. Check out the sea turtles and hear their stories. They have a wonderful gift shop as well.

MEMORANDUM TO: FINANCE COMMITTEE FROM: MARJORIE JOHNSON, CHIEF ACCOUNTING OFFICER SUBJECT: LAUNDRY ROOM LEASE - CAMPGROUND DATE: 7/12/2016 BUSINESS LEASE SUMMARY Laundry Room lease at Campground: BUSINESS NAME: CSC SERVICE WORKS, INC. Lease Description: CSC Service Works, Inc will lease the laundry room at the Campground for purposes of installing, operating and maintaining Pay-per-use laundry equipment. The machines will be capable of accepting coin and credit/debit card payments. Term of Lease: 5 years beginning on 10/11/2016 Annual Rent: JIA will receive 45% of income from machines less credit/debit card fees, internet fees and other costs associated with equipment as rental of the property The current laundry equipment is almost 10 years old and needing frequent repairs. The current machines also do not accept credit/debit card payments. This lease would include 9 new washers and 9 new dryers with credit/debit card and cash payment options. Our current commission rate is 50%, but is for a longer term lease. Based on our experience with the current machines, we determined that 5 years was the longest we wanted to keep the machines, therefore the commission rate is less on the shorter lease term.

Jones Hooks, Executive Director Jekyll Island Authority 100 James Rd Jekyll Island, Georgia 31527 Re: Jekyll Island Golf Master Plan Proposal #216023 Dear Jones: It was great speaking with you these last few months about the possibility of National Golf Foundation Consulting, Inc. (“NGF Consulting” or “NGF”) coming in to help the Jekyll Island Authority (“Authority”) plan for the future of its golf courses known collectively as the Jekyll Island Golf Club. I think from our previous meetings, conversations and emails that we at NGF have a good idea about what specific services are going to be required the help the Authority, and these ideas are documented in the proposal that follows. We understand that the Authority would like to retain NGF Consulting to provide the foundation for a plan that will help ensure the long-term sustainability of golf within Jekyll Island, and that the review provided will be comprehensive and cover both the operation and physical plant of the golf courses. SCOPE OF SERVICES NGF will complete a comprehensive golf master plan for Jekyll Island GC focusing on key internal and external factors that drive the success of the golf enterprise. The five key areas of NGF review will include: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. External Market Analysis Comprehensive Review of Operations Comprehensive Review of Physical Plant Operational and Physical Recommendations Stakeholder Input This proposal has been designed to provide the Authority with the appropriate information and insights to assist in making key decisions about the future of Jekyll Island GC. The NGF is mindful of recent changes to other aspects of Jekyll Island and the Authority’s desire to see that the golf “brand” is a match with all that Jekyll Island has to offer. Although listed as the #5 key element of our engagement, the NGF is proposing an extensive program of public/stakeholder input to occur throughout the engagement period. The NGF will participate in several meetings to allow Authority Board members and active users of the golf courses to provide insight and direction to NGF in preparing our recommendations for the future of the Jekyll Island GC. A summary of the consultants’ tasks and required fees and expenses are provided in the following pages. NATIONAL GOLF FOUNDATION CONSULTING, INC. A Subsidiary of the National Golf Foundation 501 N. HIGHWAY A1A, JUPITER, FL 33477 (561) 744-6006 FAX: (561) 744-9085 www.ngf.org Task One: External Market Analysis NGF will identify the primary and secondary trade areas for Jekyll Island GC, and then analyze key market demographic and economic factors, as well as the competitive supply/demand dynamic for public access golf (municipal + privately owned daily fee), to assess the existing and recommended market position for the golf facility. Demographic and Market Supply/Demand Analysis NGF Consulting will provide an overview of current and anticipated future golf industry trends, based on our annual State of the Industry publication and latest proprietary consumer research. NGF will also analyze the demographic profile of the southeast Georgia Coastal area and identify relevant trends that are predictive of golf participation and activity. We will utilize demographic research materials provided by NGF’s proprietary Golf Market Analysis Platform (GolfMAP), which takes into account major factors that are influential in determining golf participation rates, rounds demanded, and the number of golfers in a given market. This data will be based upon local, regional and national markets, mindful of the destination nature of Jekyll Island GC. This review will include: Demographic and socioeconomic trends in the broader Georgia Coast area market including the large Jekyll Island area tourist/seasonal market - that have the potential to affect the demand for golf at various price points. NGF will form a realistic picture of the present and future status of the golf market, and identify any potential market opportunities for Jekyll Island golf courses into the foreseeable future. Key market demand and supply measures that are outputs of NGF’s proprietary Golf Demand Model, such as total rounds demand, golfing households per 18 holes of golf and golf participation rates. We will compare these measures for Jekyll Island GC and compare them to regional and national benchmarks. This analysis will help the Authority form a realistic expectation of the market support for Jekyll Island GC in the short and longer term, and identify potential growth opportunities. Competitive Analysis NGF Consulting will document relevant local competition, with particular focus on the identified primary competitors, to help establish the appropriate market positioning for Jekyll Island GC. We will also identify potential future competitive threats, and make benchmark comparisons of key metrics with other local resort areas such as Fernandina Beach or Myrtle Beach. For each competitive location, we will assess key physical and operating characteristics, including: location relative to Jekyll Island GC’s; facility types; market characteristics; rounds played (to the extent made available); fee structures; food and beverage service; other amenities, etc. NGF will document the supply of golf courses in each area market, with projections of changes that may occur in supply of golf over the next five years (golf course closings, new course openings, and renovations). Benchmarking Analysis The NGF team will provide a benchmark analysis to compare the expenditures for operations and maintenance to other national and regional golf facilities with similar profile and operational program. The NGF will utilize ongoing National Golf Foundation research into golf operations, augmented by in-field local market research conducted specifically for this engagement. Appropriate Configuration Findings As a summary to the external market analysis, the NGF team will provide the Authority with an estimate of the number of golf holes that are supportable at Jekyll Island, and begin to identify any reconfiguration that may be required to meet the identified threshold of golf holes provided. National Golf Foundation Consulting, Inc. – Proposal #216023 – Jekyll Island GC – 2 Task Two – Golf Operations Analysis NGF will complete an initial “kick-off” visit to Jekyll Island (expected to be week of July 18, 2016) to complete an on-site inspection of Jekyll Island GC, conduct interviews with key staff, meet with selected stakeholders and collect documentation on the recent historical performance of the facility. The operations review and subsequent analysis will give NGF the necessary background to make recommendations that should result in improved economic performance. The operations review will comprise the elements described below for Jekyll Island GC. Golf Operations Analysis The NGF Consulting team will review the operations of the Jekyll Island GC, including an on-site visit/inspection that will involve key Authority personnel and club managers (Golf Course Manager, Superintendent, Head Golf Professional, etc.). The site visit and meetings will provide the necessary background to make overall recommendations aimed at improving the economic performance of the golf courses. The operations analysis will include a review of: Staffing/personnel review and needs/duty assessment (including volunteers) Financial and activity records (P&L statements, budgets, rounds played, etc.) Technology review (POS, Internet, email, social media, etc.) Controls, cash policy and audits Pricing analysis (Fee history, positioning, membership) Marketing activities and strategies Revenue center performance and future potential Clubhouse operations (F&B, pro shop merchandise, etc.) Power cart program (lease v. purchase, gas v. electric) Programs in place (customer service, lessons, tournaments, etc.) Opportunities for potential rounds and/or revenue growth Concession Operation Analysis NGF will complete a review of the relative strengths and weaknesses associated with the concession operation at Jekyll Island GC, including opinions on the potential to develop non-golf special event revenue. Task Three: Physical Plant Review NGF Consulting will review the physical condition of each separate Jekyll Island GC golf course and all support amenities to identify for the Authority key physical areas that could be enhanced to either (1) improve revenue performance and/or (2) reduce expenses in the operation. Key areas to review will include (but not limited to): Maintenance conditions, practices, budget and efficiencies Golf layout, playability and standards of quality Condition of greens, tees, fairways, roughs, bunkers, and cart paths Irrigation system Equipment, including long-term capital expense related to replacement Driving range + practice green National Golf Foundation Consulting, Inc. – Proposal #216023 – Jekyll Island GC – 3 Clubhouse Review The physical plant review will include a comprehensive assessment of the Jekyll Island golf clubhouse, including: Identification of needed enhancements Review of space efficiencies and services provided Review of merchandising organization, support and space allocation Review of concession support structure (equipment, storage, efficiency) Review of ambiance, entrance presentation and curb appeal Task Four – NGF Recommendations and Financial Analysis Based on our market analysis, including Jekyll Island GC rounds played and projections, and the operation and physical review of the subject Jekyll Island GC, NGF will provide a series of actionable recommendations that will give the Authority the best chance for meeting financial objectives for Jekyll Island GC in the future. The NGF recommendations will be divided into short-term (1-3 years) and long-term (up to 20 years), and cover key areas such as operations and physical plant. The NGF review will include all justification and relevant supporting data/evidence in support of each recommendation. NGF will also review overall golf market trends as part of the sustainability consideration. Operational Recommendations Recommendations related to Jekyll Island GC operations will include (but not limited to): Identification of most appropriate facility mix (type, price, location, etc.) Management / operating structure, including a review of possible outsource options Revenue centers that should be added or enhanced Ideas to enhance the customer experience Pricing structure that would result in revenue optimization Technology enhancements (Software / POS / internet / loyalty / etc.) Marketing initiatives Golf operations policies and expense management Tournament and outing programs Player development programs Physical Recommendations The recommendations related to physical plant would include: Identification of most appropriate facility mix (no. of holes, type, condition) Based on market and JIGC findings, identification of specific holes improvements for maximum efficiency will be provided by NGF as a schematic based on the most efficient layout concept Physical changes to improve efficiency will be documented and provided to the Authority for consideration Changes in maintenance practices Ideas for reducing the maintenance profile and saving expense Clubhouse changes and enhancements Providing a strategy for facility reconfiguration and/or change in the number of golf holes, with plan for most appropriate method and space allocation National Golf Foundation Consulting, Inc. – Proposal #216023 – Jekyll Island GC – 4 Action Plans The NGF recommendations will include specific action plans for the Authority along with a defined schedule of priorities and detail of all methodology, cost, and timeframes for implementation. These action plans will be developed for each identified strategy and include a detailed budget recommendation and a timeline for implementation. Financial Analysis NGF will provide estimates of the financial impact of enacting its recommendations. This includes projections for relevant services and financial indicators; (e.g., paid rounds, average green fee revenue per round, average food and beverage revenue per round, maintenance costs per hole, etc.), as well as costs associated with NGF recommendations for the first five years after implementation. We will also provide a five-year projection of cash flow and net operating income; revenue and expenditures from each business element; appropriate reserves; and activities and service levels of each business element in consideration of NGF recommendations. Task Five: Public and Stakeholder Input The NGF consultant(s) will meet with relevant stakeholders such as Authority Board members, active golfers (such as Men’s Association, Women’s Association, etc.) and golf employees of the Jekyll Island GC to gauge their opinions about the golf course operation. We will also implement NGF’s golfer survey program (GolfSat), which allows us to benchmark key satisfaction measures and get open-ended feedback from golfers. The NGF anticipates additional communication with stakeholders to include: Direct meeting with Authority Board at the beginning of the NGF engagement (possibly August 15, 2016), and again for an interim presentation of findings Meetings with interested stakeholder groups (MGA, WGA, etc.) during the fall of 2016) Interim presentation of findings, ideas and recommendations to the Authority Board and interested stakeholder groups (MGA, WGA, etc.) in late fall 2016/early winter 2017 A final presentation of findings and recommendations to the board in late January 2017 GolfSAT Survey Program NGF will implement our unique golfer survey program (GolfSAT) at Jekyll Island GC in the summer-fall of 2016, distributed primarily through the club’s own email database of customers. Custom questions focusing on key issues will be created with guidance from the Authority. GolfSAT involves an online platform with multiple choice questions, service ratings and openended responses. The basic distribution of surveys will be through direct email delivery, with customers sent a link to take the survey online in the privacy of their own home. A progress bar appears on each page so each respondent knows how far along they are in the survey and how much is left. For those “technology-challenged” customers, a paper-pencil version of each survey can be provided if needed. Key features include: Simple and fast web-based survey that takes five minutes to complete Results filtering to see responses from defined customer segments (e.g., women, first time visitors, pass holders, seniors, residents & discount card holders) Satisfaction feedback and most critical satisfaction factors of the golf experience Benchmark comparisons to similar courses to identify strengths and deficiencies in operations Custom questions soliciting answers to specific topics and to generate leads for programs / activities National Golf Foundation Consulting, Inc. – Proposal #216023 – Jekyll Island GC – 5 FINAL REPORT PREPARATION / PROJECT DELIVERABLES NGF Consulting anticipates frequent communication with the Jekyll Island Authority during the course of this engagement.

Singer Director of Consulting Services 561-354-1642 rsinger@ngf.org Acceptance:_____________________________________________ Date :________________ National Golf Foundation Consulting, Inc. – Proposal #216023 – Jekyll Island GC – 7 JEKYLL ISLAND-STATE PARK AUTHORITY RFP 327 REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS TO DESIGN, PERMIT, AND REPAIR/REHABILITATE AN EXISTING OCEAN-FACING SHORELINE ROCK REVETMENT, ALONG WITH ASSOCIATED UPLAND RESTORATION AND EVALUATION / DESIGN / PERMITTING / CONSTRUCTION OF ENGINEERING ALTERNATIVES TO THE REVETMENT IN SELECT AREAS. JEKYLL ISLAND, GEORGIA ----------, 2016 ________________________________ CONTENTS PAGE SECTION 1 SECTION 2 INSTRUCTIONS TO PROPOSERS PROPOSAL FORMAT AND CONTENT 1-4 4-8 EXHIBIT A EXHIBIT B EXHIBIT C GEOGRAPHIC CONTEXT PROJECT EXTENT AND ZONE CATEGORIES ZONE CATEGORY DESCRIPTIONS 9 10 11 SECTION I 1.1 INSTRUCTIONS TO PROPOSERS Introduction The Jekyll Island State Park Authority (the “Authority” or “JIA”) is seeking proposals from qualified engineers with extensive experience in ocean-facing shoreline protection and restoration projects to design, permit, repair/rehabilitate an existing ocean-facing shoreline rock revetment on Jekyll Island, Georgia, along with associated upland restoration and evaluation, design, permitting, and construction of engineering alternatives to the revetment in select areas. The project area includes a maximum extent of approximately 9,704 linear feet of shoreline as set forth in Exhibits A and B. Within this area, a granite rock revetment currently armors the shoreline. The revetment’s function as shoreline erosion protection is currently compromised, much more severely at the northern end of the project area, due to a possible combination of subsidence, displacement of rocks by wave action, and substandard construction. The result is a rock revetment that is routinely overtopped by high tides that are unrelated to storms. Upland erosion is occurring shoreward of the compromised revetment and the severity of the erosion is likewise progressively greater approaching the northern end of the project area. Proposals responsive to this request should include all public engagement design, permitting, and construction costs required to complete the proposed work. This work may include a combination of revetment repair, addition of larger boulders, and rebuilding to an appropriate and consistent peak elevation accounting for a reasonable prediction of sea-level changes over the life-span of the structure. Shoreward of the revetment, proposals my call for restoring eroded sand dunes and upland sediment to create an elevated sand terrace that may be planted with appropriate native vegetation and provide for public enjoyment of that space where compatible with the primary project goals of shore protection and stabilization goals. Proposals may also call for the evaluation, design, permitting, and construction of alternative shoreline protection technologies in the zone identified in Green in Exhibit B. Such alternatives, if proposed, should address the goals of slowing erosion of uplands, capturing sand, and improving the status quo for availability of beach nesting habitat for sea turtles. Restoring the full-functionality of existing, compromised but still partiallyfunctional, revetment within budgetary limitations and the maximum project extent identified in Exhibit B is the primary purpose of this project. Proposals should make clear a commitment to a product that will not cause any negative environmental or public-access impacts beyond those that may have resulted from the original revetment project. Proposals that aim to minimize such negative impacts, improving the status quo for environmental and public access conditions while still effectively addressing the primary purpose, are preferred.

All proposals should include removal of this debris to give the northern extent of the revetment a clearly defined terminus at or near the northern extent of the northern red-zone. Proposers are encouraged to consider alternative, innovative, or even experimental, low-environmental-impact methodologies and technologies to reduce upland shoreline erosion in the green zone, capture sand, and preferably allow for improvement of sea turtle nesting habitat value. Any proposals that may negatively impact potential for sea turtle nesting habitat relative to the status quo in this zone will not be considered. • • • Approximate total extent – 688 linear feet Composed of one section bounded by the following points listed from north to south N 31.104434°, W -81.404316° to N 31.102628°, W -81.403650° 11 Draft Project Outline for the Jekyll Island Authority (JIA) Comprehensive Disability Accessibility Assessment and Improvement Plan Purpose: The purpose for this proposed project is to update the JIA ADA Action Plan by developing a Comprehensive Disability Accessibility Assessment and Improvement Plan for the Jekyll Island Authority (“Plan”) to promote and enhance access and inclusion for people with disabilities in recreation, leisure activities, and tourism offered by JIA. Recent History: Over the past year, complaints have been filed concerning beach accessibility on Jekyll Island. Over several months, a review of the applicable ADA regulations as well as technical consultations with representatives from the U.S. Department of Justice and U.S. Access Board, have occurred. Moreover, in response to a formal complaint filed against the Jekyll Island Authority (JIA), the U.S. Department of the Interior determined that the JIA was not discriminating against individuals with disabilities at beach access points #32 & #38 (May 10, 2016). Before any complaints, the JIA was engaged in ADA access improvements, however, as a result of the concerns additional time and resources have been devoted to improved access. The beach access challenge on Jekyll Island is not a matter of ADA compliance. Rather, it is about working collaboratively to identify creative solutions that go beyond the law’s minimum requirements. This is the approach the JIA has adopted to address beach access issues, as well as disability access to its other programs, services, and activities. Proposed Project Start Date: September 15, 2016 Collaborating Agencies: Jekyll Island Authority, Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission-State ADA Coordinator’s Office Project Team Members: JIA ADA Team Members, GSFIC-ADA Staff, GSFIC-ADA Consultant (proposed) Estimated Budget Allocation: No cost to JIA for State ADA Coordinator’s services; JIA’s implementation costs to be determined. 1 Estimated Total Project Hours Allocation: To be determined 1 See Action #7 and fn. 5, and Action #12 and fn. 6. 1 Deliverables: (1) Comprehensive Disability Accessibility Assessment and Improvement Plan 2 (2) Core ADA training curriculum for JIA’s key ADA Compliance Team; (3) Provision of ongoing technical assistance to JIA’s key ADA personnel for the maintenance and update of the ADA plan; and (4) ADA-related training for JIA staff. Introduction and Project Approach As increasing numbers of people with disabilities visit our state’s vast array of natural and cultural resources, including Jekyll Island, accessibility to the activities, facilities, and events offered is critically important. The goal is equal opportunity and access in an integrated setting. Everyone who visits Jekyll Island should be able to do so comfortably and efficiently. To achieve this goal, this proposed project partners the Jekyll Island Authority (“JIA”) with the Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission - State ADA Coordinator (“State ADA Coordinator”) to promote and enhance access and inclusion for people with disabilities in recreation, leisure activities, and tourism offered by JIA through (a) updating the JIA’s ADA compliance plan; and (b) identifying and implementing best practices for designing or adapting JIA’s programs with the widest range of users in mind. Accessibility is a mandate covered in federal and state laws, standards, and regulations. Title II of the ADA (Title II) covers the programs, activities, and services of public entities, which include any state government and any of its departments, agencies, or other instrumentalities. Title II states that “no qualified individual with a disability shall, by reason of disability, be excluded from participation in or be denied the benefits of the services, programs, or activities, of a [state government agency], or be subjected to discrimination by any such [agency].” Title II also directs state agencies to carry out specific methods of administration enumerated in its implementing regulations to ensure compliance with the Act’s mandate, which include: 2 The Plan formalizes JIA’s continuing actions to develop and increase meaningful disability access to its programs, services, and activities. While the JIA proactively addresses accessibility on a regular basis, visitors have expressed ongoing concerns about access to the beach. Although JIA’s current beach access is ADA compliant, this is an opportunity for JIA to look beyond the law’s minimum requirements and advance its commitment to a customer-oriented culture that includes individuals with disabilities. 2 • Designation of an agency ADA Coordinator to establish a single line of responsibility and intra-agency coordination for the purpose of ensuring that its programs, services and activities provide genuine, effective and meaningful access to individuals with disabilities (28 C.F.R 35.107(a)); • Development of the agency’s ADA self-evaluation (28 C.F.R. 35.105); • Development of the agency’s transition plan (28 C.F.R. 35.150); • Establishment and administration of the agency’s ADA informal grievance procedure (28 C.F.R. 35.107); • Provision of public notice of the agency’s ADA-related activities (28 C.F.R. 35.106). It is critical that state agency administrators, construction compliance specialists, procurement officers, and facility operators understand and implement these basic requirements. Accessibility laws and standards, however, only set minimum standards for accessibility and accommodations. We want to rethink accessibility - not as a legal requirement or unwanted mandate, but as the direct route to creating a customeroriented culture that includes individuals with disabilities and promotes full participation and equal opportunity for everyone. Our challenge is to move beyond the minimum requirements - and embrace a concept of universal design that serves everyone’s needs and ensures designed environments that are functional, safe, and accommodating. 3 The project outline includes four general phases: • • • • Phase 1: Planning for ADA Compliance Phase 2: Conducting an Updated ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan Phase 3: Implementing the ADA Plan Phase 4: Maintaining and Updating the ADA Plan as Necessary The roles and responsibilities for JIA and the State ADA Coordinator, as well as timelines to complete actions, will be established for each proposed action item. Each action item is sequential unless otherwise indicated. 3 For some activities, other critical priorities, including environmental and endangered species protection laws, must be considered when implementing accessibility solutions. Under these circumstances, flexibility of approach is critical. In the spirit of collaboration, JIA will call on interested stakeholders from environmental agencies and organizations, the accessibility profession, and the disability community to develop a cross-disciplinary approach for addressing access challenges. 3 Phase 1: Planning for ADA compliance Goal of Phase 1: Establish and train JIA’s ADA Compliance Team (lead and team members) 4 1. Gather JIA’s key ADA personnel for coordination of the Plan and orientation to roles. 2. Identify each of the JIA activities, events, and facilities open to the general public. 3. Review current ADA-related protocol, policies, and grievance procedure. 4. Identify critical or time sensitive JIA ADA-related issues. Conduct outreach activities with the general public to obtain feedback. 5. Deliver the next phase of ongoing training curriculum for JIA ADA Compliance Team with a focus on conducting ADA self-evaluation and transition planning tasks. 6. Update informal grievance procedure and public notice. End of Phase 1: The JIA ADA Compliance Team will be ready to carry out its responsibilities. Phase 2: Conducting an Updated JIA ADA Self-Evaluation & Transition Plan Goal of Phase 2: Assess JIA’s current level of Title II compliance and disability access. 7. Conduct self-evaluations to identify potential barriers to access to services for individuals with disabilities. 5 8. Identify potential new technologies and accommodation solutions to address challenging accessibility issues. 9. Develop an access assessment, summary and action plan for barrier removal for each of JIA’s activities, events, and facilities which includes: 4 While there is no requirement to designate a person in any particular position as an ADA team member, it is critical to identify the right people for JIA’s ADA Team. When selecting team members, some variables to consider are: (a) commitment to this initiative; (b) authority within respective division or office; (c) experience working with disability-related issues; (d) knowledge of the programs offered; and (e) strong organizational skills. Although familiarity with the ADA’s requirement is helpful, the State ADA Coordinator’s Office will provide all necessary ADA-related training applicable to this initiative. 5 JIA and the State ADA Coordinator’s Office will review an inventory of JIA’s existing facilities (where no changes are planned) to determine whether a consultant will need to be procured to conduct an updated accessibility assessment. 4 (a) current steps to address access barriers in accordance with JIA-identified priorities; (b) strategies for addressing those gaps in service delivery; and (c) cost to implement the updated ADA Action Plan. 10. Share the proposed Plan with the general public for public input and feedback. End of Phase 2: JIA completes assessment of their current level of Title II compliance and disability access. Phase 3: Implementing the JIA ADA Action Plan Goal of Phase 3: Implement a comprehensive JIA ADA Action Plan. Note - Timelines for action items 11-14 run simultaneously. 11. Revise and update the Plan in accordance with JIA-identified priorities. 12. Implement the Plan, including making accessibility-related alterations to facilities (multi-year implementation). 6 13. Develop and/or update ADA protocols for collaborative partners, contractors and consultants. JIA will identify ADA-related technical support and training needs for each entity applicable to their public responsibility to JIA’s internal and external customers. 14. Provide technical assistance to JIA regarding the development of ADA protocols for responsible collaborative partners, contractors and consultants. Provide technical assistance related to technical support and training needs for each entity. 15. Provide ADA trainings to JIA staff/employees on JIA disability-related protocols/policies. End of Phase 3: The JIA ADA Action Plan is implemented. Phase 4: Maintaining and Updating the JIA ADA Action Plan as Necessary Goal of Phase 4: Ensure the JIA ADA Action Plan addresses ongoing needs at JIA. 16. Develop and utilize an ADA checklist when activities are added or modified within each one of JIA’s offices, divisions or services. 6 This critical action will require coordination with the Governor’s Office of Planning and Budget to develop a comprehensive approach to ADA-related capital planning. 5 17. Provide technical assistance to JIA regarding the development and utilization of an ADA checklist when activities are added or modified within each one of JIA’s offices, divisions or services. 18. Continue providing periodic training, as necessary, to JIA ADA Compliance Team members on ADA-related updates. 20. Incorporate ADA coordination into JIA’s strategic planning and customer service initiatives. 6 DRAFT JEKYLL ISLAND AUTHORITY SUMMARY Recognizing that Jekyll Island’s natural beauty and vibrant history set it apart from any other coastal retreat, the Governor and the Georgia State Legislature established the island as a state park in 1948 and entrusted its care to the Jekyll Island Authority (JIA). The Jekyll Island Authority is a self-supporting state authority responsible for the overall management and stewardship of Jekyll Island. On Jekyll Island our revitalization efforts have hit a crescendo. The new Westin and Holiday Inn Resort have opened. The Convention Center continues to fill its schedule with new groups and impress its visitors daily. Bike paths, golf courses, and beaches have never looked better, and the new Beach Village is vibrant with shops, restaurants, and visitors. Along with all the redevelopment, Jekyll has managed to maintain its impressive ratio of approximately 65% undeveloped land. This pristine, beautiful, wild space is enjoyed by both wildlife and visitors, and is a great example of the balance that can be struck between conservation and development. Jekyll has never looked better and has never been more fun. The Jekyll Island Authority has 16 Departments and 153 full-time and 140 part-time/seasonal employees responsible for providing services to approximately 700 businesses and residences that are dependent on the JIA for all municipal services, including water/sewer, roads, fire and EMT services. In addition to a private contract through Waste Management, the JIA also provides some garbage pickup. JIA employees also provide guest services including golf, tennis, mini golf, waterpark, beach services, picnic areas, bath houses, landscaping, signature festivals and events, park entertainment, Historic District & Museum tours, Georgia Sea Turtle Center, and camp ground facilities to approximately 2.0 million visitors annually. Throughout the year, the Jekyll Island Authority cooperates extensively with many state agencies, especially OPB, DNR, DOT, AG, GSFIC, and DCA. The Jekyll Island Authority is especially grateful for the support of Governor Deal and the State Legislature.

Strategy 2: Based on developed inventory and utilization information, a detailed study will be undertaken assessing projected system demands and projecting expansion needs, including estimated costs and time frames. This study will be accomplished by the end of the 4th Quarter of FY17. Measurable Objective 4: Hollybourne Structural Engineering Study Strategy 1: Restoration of Hollybourne Cottage in the Historic District will continue during FY17. Unfortunately, as the restoration continues, we have encountered concerns pertaining to the cottage’s structural integrity. An engineering assessment of the materials and structure of the cottage is needed in order to prioritize further restoration efforts. This assessment will be accomplished by the 2nd Quarter of FY17. Measurable Objective 5: Employee Benefits Review & Assessment Strategy 1: Through the JIA Human Resources Department a thorough analysis of employee benefits will be conducted with special interest in reducing the costs of health care and retirement. Benefit programs are usually difficult to compare, and because of State and Federal laws and regulations, any proposed changes may be cumbersome and difficult to implement. However, an effort will be made to determine possible changes that could positively impact the JIA Budget. To be accomplished by end of 3rd Quarter of FY17. 3 DRAFT Measurable Objective 6: ADA Plan Strategy 1: Working with the State ADA Coordinator of Georgia State Financing & Investment Commission, an ADA Plan for Jekyll Island will be recommended to the JIA Board. In addition to an update of recent ADA improvements and an assessment of facilities, activities, events and services, the Plan will provide recommendations for immediate and longer term ADA improvements. The outline for a plan will be accomplished during the 1st Quarter of FY17. Once the outline receives Board approval, the formal plan would be accomplished before the end of FY17. Measurable Objective 7: Transportation Study Strategy 1: The JIA is working with the Carl Vincent Institute at UGA to accomplish a Comprehensive Transportation Study for Jekyll Island. This study will access the transportation needs of employers, employees, visitors, and the JIA. The study will include recommendations pertaining to connectivity among Jekyll Island, the mainland and St. Simons. Issues associated with providing regularly scheduled service vs. occasional service will be researched and recommendations given. It is anticipated this study will be completed during the 1st Quarter of FY17. GOAL 3 SUMMARY – SUSTAIN AND ENHANCE NATURAL RESOURCES Measurable Objective 1: Protection of northern shoreline of Jekyll Strategy 1: Engineering assessment of the present situation and recommendations for a solution to the worsening problem. In additional to evaluation of the present problem, the engineering study may include: design, permitting and construction of alternative shoreline protection technologies. Assessment to begin 1st Quarter of FY17 with completion by end of 2nd Quarter. Strategy 2: Implementation of the recommended engineering solution. Implementation anticipated to begin 4th Quarter. Total project costs not to exceed $4.0 million. Measurable Objective 2: Restoration of Fortson Pond Strategy 1: Preliminary assessment have documented hypoxic conditions in Fortson Pond at Jekyll’s entrance. These conditions are believed due to a chronic overabundance of cyanobacteria that generates decomposing, oxygen-consuming gelatinous sediment. Few species of birds, fish, reptiles, or aquatic mammals, have been 4 DRAFT observed utilizing the pond, an indication of impoverished habitat value at multiple trophic levels. Fortson Pond also negatively impacts tourist experiences and perceptions of JIA stewardship. JIA is therefore highly motivated to research, evaluate, and pursue restoration strategies for the area. An application for a Coastal Incentive Grant has been submitted. Grant approval is anticipated. If received, engineering assessment would begin 2nd Quarter of FY17. Once final solution is determined, JIA will assess construction funding options. Measurable Objective 3: Ecological research evaluating the stability of barrier-island nativeplant populations exposed to multiple stress factors In July 2014, a JIA Conservation staff report concluded that the deer population on the island is too large and likely negatively impacting other elements of the island ecosystem. At that time, the Conservation staff recommended that population control measures to be taken. The population seems to be relatively stable at this high level and recruitment rates low. However, the JIA is interested in avoiding a myopic focus on the single stressor of deer herbivory. The JIA is specifically interested in evaluating the effect of herbivory in relation to other environmental stressors, such as climate change, hydrologic changes, invasive plants, and human activity that may be affecting locally rare or otherwise important native species. Strategy 1: The JIA has been surveying the white-tailed deer population on Jekyll Island for 5 years with a combination of spotlight and camera surveys and estimates the density of deer on the island has averaged over 80 deer per square mile during that time. Timeframe: On going. Strategy 2: 4-year contract with the Warnell School of Forestry & Natural Resources at UGA to study environmental stressors and priority plant communities on Jekyll Island, including interacting effects, stakeholder values, and structured decision modeling. Study has been underway now for 6 months and will continue throughout FY17. Funded entirely by the JIA. Measurable Objective 4: Assure Construction does not harm the natural environment. Strategy 1: Review all construction projects for environmental impacts. Utilize specially appointed environmental committee to review construction proposals. Make appropriate recommendations for green enhancements and environmental protection. Ongoing throughout FY17. Strategy 2: Inspect construction projects for compliance with JIA ordinances and Design Development Guidelines, as well as State and Federal Environmental regulations. Throughout FY17. 5 DRAFT Strategy 3: Review and recommend revisions to JIA Ordinances. To be completed by 2nd Quarter. Measurable Objective 5: Reforestation Strategy 1: As trees die and are damaged, it is important that they be replaced to continue the maritime forest and other naturally forested areas on Jekyll. Throughout FY17, JIA will be growing Live Oak and Pine seedlings from existing trees for planting on Jekyll Island. Measurable Objective 6: Conservation Education & Recognition Strategy 1: Continue adaptive development of educational and volunteer opportunities through the Georgia Sea Turtle Sea, JIA Research Department, and other appropriate groups. Programs to include Annual Green Screen Event, on-going Audubon Certification process of Jekyll Island Golf Courses with volunteer involvement, Tree City USA Certification and Bicycle Friendly Community designation programs, wildlife educational programs such as Gatorology 101, turtle walks, and monitoring, Georgia Sea Turtle Center enhanced distant learning transmissions, Sea Turtle Camp. In addition to the public education components, specific conservation programs will education more than 100,000 persons during FY17. GOAL 4 SUMMARY – HISTORIC RESOURCE PRESERVATION AND ENHANCEMENT Measurable Objective 1: Historic Structures Assessment Strategy 1: The Jekyll Island Authority attempts to preserve and manage 35 historic structures and 7 support structures in the National Historic Landmark on Jekyll Island. The Jekyll Island National Historic Landmark District is actually larger in area than Colonial Williamsburg (173 acres). All facilities within the Historic District will be totally assessed pertaining to their condition, improvements needed, and any special ADA requirements. This assessment will be completed during the 1st Quarter of FY2017. Measurable Objective 2: Adaptive re-use of Villa Ospo and/or Villa Marianna Strategy 1: Explore options for higher and better use of two vacant villas within the Historic District that are not part of the active tour. These villas are mostly vacant today, except for a couple of JIA offices and archives. It would be more advantageous for JIA to have a paying tenant located in one or both of these facilities. During the 1st 6 DRAFT Quarter of FY2017, we will engage a commercial broker for assistance in promoting the availability of these facilities to appropriate entities. Measurable Objective 2: Improved sustainable business model for Historic District operations Strategy 1: Even though the Jekyll Island Authority budgets annually for operation and maintenance of the Landmark District, based on size and facility needs, it is impossible for revenues generated from Historic District tours and activities to cover the costs associated with preserving, restoring, and maintaining the District and its structures. In FY2016 the JIA budgeted $1,155,474 for the District and in FY2017, JIA has budgeted $1,428,465. Once completed, the new Mosaic museum should provide a boost to Historic District revenues. However, the challenge remains. Secure an additional 3 tour bus operators through the Historic District in FY17. Strategy 2: Expand public programming in the Historic District. New program options may include wine walks, improvements to the Rockefeller experience, more period dress for interpreters. Consideration of broader audience including kids activities, school programs, hands on archaeological research & learning for adults. End of 3rd Quarter. Strategy 3: Previously, the State of Georgia has supported the Jekyll Island National Historic Landmark District. In FY 2005/06, the State invested $3.0 in GO Bonds primarily for circulation improvements and paving in the Historic District. In FY2006/07 the State invested $200,000 in development of the $2.8 million Georgia Sea Turtle Center project. And, finally as part of island wide revitalization in FY2010, the State of Georgia invested $1.5 million in the rehabilitation of the JP Morgan Center as part of a $3.5 million public-private partnership. JIA will request State funding to assist in accomplishing capital improvements and historical structure rehabilitation that otherwise cannot be accomplished. Measurable Objective 3: Relocate tour operations and related services to temporary facility Strategy 1: Because the Mosaic will be under construction by the 3rd Quarter of FY17, Historic District tour operations must be relocated. This relocation must occur during the 2nd Quarter in order to be fully established by the time construction on the present site begins. 7 DRAFT Measurable Objective 4: Historical interpretation beyond the Historic District Strategy 1: Design, prepare, and install 1 main interpretive exhibit in the new auditorium at the Youth & Learning Center and 7 wayside outdoor interpretive panels on the Youth & Learning Center Site and adjacent to the site. Installation to be completed by beginning of 2nd Quarter of FY17. Strategy 2: Design development of Wanderer exhibit replacement. To be completed by 3rd Quarter. GOAL 5 SUMMARY – INCREASE JEKYLL ISLAND VISITATION Measurable Objective 1: Increased gate traffic Strategy 1: Aggressively promote Jekyll Island to groups and individual families within our primary geographic areas: Atlanta, Jacksonville, Orlando, Tampa, Savannah, Charlotte. Gate reports are available monthly to monitor traffic totals. Year to Date and Previous Year comparisons are noted. Strategy 2: Promote signature events and festivals to regional and local audience. Registrations and attendance totals are monitored to determine success. These activities will occur throughout FY17. Measurable Objective 2: Occupancy rates Strategy 1: Hotel reports, including occupancy and Average Daily Rates, are generated monthly by all lodging facilities on Jekyll Island. These reports are shared at monthly JIA Board meetings. Measurable Objective 3: Social Media Strategy 1: JIA Marketing Department representatives and paid services monitor social media for Jekyll Island constantly. Impressions, likes/follows/engagement are all charted. Review and social media strategy adjustment will be available throughout FY17. Measurable Objective 4: Web site Strategy 1: Design, as well as individual sessions, pages viewed per session, bounce rate, time spent on the JIA site, and referrals are an ongoing responsibility of the JIA 8 DRAFT Marketing Department. Paid advertising will be employed to compliment owned/earned and organic traffic to the site and optimized throughout the year. Measurable Objective 5: Traditional Media coverage Strategy 1: The number of stories about Jekyll Island generated or secured and the total number of associated impressions are important to the overall image and promotion of Jekyll Island. The JIA Marketing Department will continue its media outreach throughout the year. Measurable Objective 6: Convention Center groups Strategy 1: The new Jekyll Island Convention Center coupled with the opening of the Westin and Holiday Inn Resorts have attracted the interest of meeting planners. The JIA Sales Department has a comprehensive strategy for promoting Jekyll to group business. (attached) Sales efforts are constant. Sales numbers are tracked monthly and comparisons of won and lost business reviewed. These efforts will be ongoing for 2017. Strategy 2: Our Convention Center staff promotes the facility for local and regional activities and events. During the previous 12 month period, this business was significant. Again in 2017, we will attempt to secure as many local/regional events as possible. An increase of five additional local events over 2016 is a goal. GOAL 6 SUMMARY – EFFICIENT, COST EFFECTIVE AND EXTRAORDINARY MUNICIPAL & GUEST SERVICES Measurable Objective 1: Financially sustainable services Strategy 1: The JIA Board approved a $27 million operational budget for FY17. Maintaining and improving JIA services and facilities is critical to our success in all areas. Sixteen JIA Departments are charged with accomplishing their responsibilities effectively and within budget. Monthly and Quarterly reports will assure compliance. Measurable Objective 2: Resident & Guest Satisfaction Strategy 1: Daily reviews of any issues and opportunities will continue to be conducted throughout FY17. 9 DRAFT Strategy 2: Monitor social media for issues and complaints, as well as traditional media outlets, and Trip Advisor.
