  • Annual Budget Fiscal Year 2004 - 2005
    LeeLee CountyCounty Southwest Florida Annual Budget Fiscal Year 2004 - 2005 About the cover: The Everglades and 10,000 Islands are a masterpiece of nature. This subtropical wilderness is home to a plentiful flora and fauna. It is known for its rich bird life, particularly large wading birds, such as the roseate spoonbill, wood stork, great blue heron and a variety of egrets. It contains both temperate and tropical plant communities. Each species is an important part of the Everglades ecosystem. The Everglades are made up of complex ecosystems; freshwater swamp, brackish estuaries, and saltwater mangroves. Mangroves flourish in salty environments because they are able to obtain freshwater from saltwater. Some have the ability to block absorption of salt at their roots while others secrete excess salt through their leaves, allowing them to flourish where other trees would die. Mangroves contribute to the overall health of Florida’s southern coastal shoreline and provide a protected habitat for a variety of fish and crustaceans. Mangroves are one of Florida’s true natives and part of the state's heritage. FISCAL 2005 BUDGET Final Budget Fiscal Year 2004-2005 The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) presented an award for Distinguished Presentation to the Lee Board of County Commissioners for its annual budget for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2003. In order to receive this award, a governmental unit must publish a budget document that meets program criteria as a policy document, as an operations guide, as a financial plan and as a communications device. The award is valid for a period of one year only.

  • Annual Report 2 0 0 3 - 2 0 0 4 ~ 1 ~ PRESIDENT’S STATEMENT
    Annual Report 2 0 0 3 - 2 0 0 4 ~ 1 ~ PRESIDENT’S STATEMENT ince opening to students on a beautiful day in August 1997, Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) has Sexceeded all expectations! We have much to be proud of at the completion of just seven short years – and we are excited about our role as a transformational engine for Southwest Florida. Our many accomplishments have been made possible through the dedication of our students, faculty, staff, boards, advisory committees, elected officials, community partners, and donors. We are a dynamic institution on the move, with student enrollment increasing from 2,700 in 1997 to more than 6,000 students today. We recently opened a student union, art building, sixth phase of student residences, Alico Arena, baseball and softball complex, Lee County/FGCU Aquatics Center, and most recently, Sugden Welcome Center. Current projects under development include the WCI Green Building Demonstration and Learning Center, Kleist Health Education Center, Naples Botanical Garden Laboratory and Herbert J. Sugden Hall for Resort & Hospitality Management. These new facilities will complement our current campus buildings, and we’re planning for even more growth. In addition to outstanding facilities and academic programs, FGCU’s research initiatives offer significant benefit to citizens of our region and state and will be a cornerstone of new high-technology research parks under development near the campus.
