City wage study: Base salaries mostly competitive; benefits ‘leading the market’

By MEGHAN BRADBURY

news@breezenewspapers.com

The city of Cape Coral’s total compensation package for employees is, for the most part, competitive with comparable cities in the state, according to a wage and benefits study commissioned by the city.

Using a standard that defines market competitiveness as 95%-105% of the market average, Segal, the consulting

firm, found the city is competitive across the board with three lags: The City’s General Union positions, on an overall basis, lagged the market at the minimum and maximum for base pay, coming in at 94%, just under the competitive minimum of 95%. Overall Base Pay as a percentage of the market 75th Percentile across all non-bargaining benchmark job titles also was reported at 94%

In terms of overall compensation, which includes benefits, Segal found the city exceeded the top percentile for competitiveness, coming in at 106% for all benchmark positions — “leading the market” — save paygrade minimums for starting non-union employees which hit the top competitive percentile of 105% In terms of benefits, the October summary report submitted by Segal states the

“I like the second pier towards the west end of the beach. The extended parking garage is a must,” he said as it adds 100 spaces to the original concept. “We are going to need that parking out there for how popular the Yacht Club will be.”

The first of two concepts includes a playground, expanded beach, proposed 6,700-squarefoot restaurant, 15,000-square-foot resort style pool, Community Center, the existing Boathouse Restaurant, existing boat fuel pump, landscape berm, 72 surface parking spaces, a three-level parking deck of 500 spaces, harbor master building, 39-space boat trailer parking, boat ramp, pier with shade structure, boardwalk, fountain and water feature and restroom.

The second concept features the same amenities

A cultural shift in under way to better serve students in the School District of Lee County's English for Speakers of Other Languages program with plans to implement changes in every school.

The goal?

To transform the district’s ESOL department to better serve students in the program, something officials said will not happen overnight.

“It’s going to take time. Your work will speak for itself, and it will spread. Work with the willing at the moment and (it will) start to trickle down,” said ESOL Director Sohira Sarmiento in explaining the initiative at a recent school board meeting.

Superintendent Dr. Christopher Bernier said the shift began with the coalition of the willing, who immediately jumped on board.

“All of them will come through this process and will have a plan,” he said.

Sixteen schools, including some charter schools, are still to be included.

Sarmiento, who was born and raised in Miami as a student within the ESOL program, has recently become the director in the district.

“I am very passionate about it, and it means a lot to me because it’s a full circle moment to help these students,” she said.

The change will be transform the ESOL department.

“I would like to transform the ESOL department — building capacity within our schools. My small team cannot be at every school to teach the child. Transformative change is needed to grow into a world class system that includes ESOL students,”

Fort Myers Beach garage saga ends with town’s approval of variance

By NATHAN MAYBERG

What a difference three months make. Back in August, Rick Loughery went on the roof of his Estero Boulevard garage for more than five days to protest the opinions of town and state officials that he believed would have left him with no choice but to tear down his garage to rebuild it to meet the new floodplain codes after it survived Hurricane Ian. With their Fort Myers Beach home demolished by Hurricane Ian, Rick and Amy Loughery were faced with the prospect of seeing a garage they spent more than $100,000 to build, being needlessly destroyed. Rick believed he was facing a bureaucracy following new floodplain maps to deprive him of the right to keep his property.

On Monday, the Town of Fort Myers Beach Council unanimously approved a variance for the garage, which will allow the Lougherys to build their new home and keep their garage.

“We broke ground today on our new home,” Amy said.

An administrative decision by town and state officials that concluded the garage was laterally attached to their home, despite the fact that the garage survived Hurricane Ian intact and the home was destroyed almost cost them their garage. Town and state officials had originally concluded that since the structure was considered connected to the destroyed home, more than 50% of the value was damaged and had to be built to new FEMA codes with a higher foundation, a second floor and breakaway walls.

After a meeting between town officials, the Florida Department of Emergency Management's Office of Floodplain Management and the Federal Emergency Management Agency in August, the town received an email from the state floodplain manager which revised the initial

“We would like to thank the Local Planning Agency and council for their support and approval,” Amy said.

Stone Crab Fest 2023 Sunday on Pine Island

By PAULETTE LEBLANC

pleblanc@breezenewspapers.com

The Greater Pine Island Chamber of Commerce is hosting a Stone Crab Festival, Sunday, Nov. 12, at Calusa Cay Publix Plaza from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

According to chamber board member Cynthia Welch, this event will be a fun-filled day with food, live music, stone crabs, island businesses, crafters, local seafood and adult beverages. There will be live music all day, she said, starting with Jumping Fences at 11 a.m. Matt Lee Crew follows around 1 p.m. with Brother Love coming on stage at approximately 3 p.m.

Headliner band Deb & the Dynamics will hit the stage at 5 p.m.

“This is our second year holding it, since the hurricane came along and we couldn’t do it last year. It is bigger and better than the first one, which was a great event in 2021.

This one is on a Sunday and it goes later—until after dark,” Welch said.

Over 70 island businesses and organizations will be represented at the festival with a great range of crafts, arts and business information, she said. There will be plenty of food for everyone — of course, stone crabs are the main feature on the menu, with fresh claws, crab chowder, crab

cakes, crab rangoons and crab rolls, just to name a few.

It wouldn’t be a Pine Island festival without mullet dips, pulled pork, ribs and pizza. Busch Light and Modelo beers, rum punch, lemonade and ice cream will also be available.

“We ask for a donation at the gate and part of the proceeds benefit Pine Island businesses, and we are also supporting the Food Pantry, as well as F.I.S.H (Fellow Islanders Sending Help), so part of the donations will go to them and the other part will help to promote our members through the Chamber of Commerce,” Welch said.

After a particularly rough summer, the most important thing about the event, she explained, is getting island businesses some exposure, so folks from all around know the island is open and our businesses are functioning and welcoming people to come out.

“There’s something for everyone — there will be a lot of stone crab, but a lot of other food, too, and music all day. Bring your chair, come and sit and relax and spend the day with us,” Welch said.

Calusa Cay Shoppes Publix Plaza is at 5100 Pine Island Road, Bokeelia.

LeeWay to introduce new invoice system for motorists who use pay-by-plate Motorists with unpaid Lee County tolls from Oct. 1, 2019, to present will be rebilled beginning this month as LeeWay transitions to a new invoice system. This includes crossings on the Cape Coral Bridge, the Midpoint Memorial Bridge and the Sanibel Causeway.

The Lee Pay-by-Plate website, leetollbyplate.com, will be unavailable beginning 12 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 9, until the new system is operational on Monday, Nov. 13. All existing unpaid tolls will be assigned a new reference number in the new invoice system. Payment instructions will be included in the mailed invoices, or motorists can call the

LeeWay Service Center at 239-533-9297 to obtain the new reference number.

LeeWay will introduce a “Quick Pay” feature to its website, www.leegov.com/tolls, that will allow users to check for unpaid tolls by entering their license plate number.

Unpaid tolls after 60 days may result in a registration stop that does not allow motorists to renew their auto registration.

Motorists who use an active toll transponder prepaid account will not be affected by the invoice changes.

Friday

Football North Fort Myers 24, Riverdale 22: A difficult season may have built some momentum for 2024 as the Red Knights concluded a 3-7 year with wins in their last two games. Mason Sargis' 21-yard field goal in the third quarter proved to be the game winner for North Fort Myers. Sargis' kick was the only scoring in the second half after a busy first two quarters. Andre Devine scored two firsthalf touchdowns on an 11-yard run, then taking a pass from Bryce Duross and racing 66 yards into the end zone.

Duross ran one in from 2 yards out, only to have the Raiders kick a field goal to lead 22-21 at intermission.

South Fort Myers 42, Mariner 8: The Tritons (8-2) will be going into the Region 3S-4 playoffs on a sour note after a rough night at South Fort Myers.

See PREP REPORT, page 4

Bishop Verot, Mariner headed to football playoffs Vikings host Mulberry Friday, Tritons travel to Golden Gate in Naples The release of the FHSAA football playoff brackets Sunday was good news for Bishop Verot and Mariner.

Both teams are in the playoffs in their respective classes, but at opposite ends of their brackets.

The Vikings (9-1) are the top seed in Region 2S-4, and have home-field advantage until the 2S state semifinals. Their first round opponent is Mulberry (7-3), the eighth seed in Region 2S-4.

Bishop Verot is ranked sixth in Class 2S in Florida.

Mulberry played two other region playoff teams, unbeaten Fort Meade (losing 3312) and Frostproof (6-3, winning 14-7).

Four of the Panthers' seven wins came against teams with a combined record of 238.

Bishop Verot, meanwhile, defeated defending Class 1S champion First Baptist Academy, the top ranked team in that classification this year. Other wins by Verot came against Class 3S playoff team Dunbar and Sarasota Cardinal Mooney, ranked No. 5 in Class 1S. The Vikings' only loss came against the No. 3 team in Class 3M (Metro), Tampa Jesuit, by a 36-29 score.

For Mariner, an 8-2 record and District 3S-14 title got them into the 3S-4 playoffs, but no respect in the rankings. The Tritons were given the eighth seed and a road game at No. 1 Golden Gate.

Golden Gate is also 8-2, but is ranked the No. 9 team in the state in Class 3S.

Mariner's standing was hurt not only by losing two of its last three games, including 3-7 North Fort Myers, but having four of its wins come against teams whose combined records were 3-37.

None of the 10 teams the Tritons faced during the year made the playoffs.

Golden Gate defeated Region 3S-4 playoff teams Barron Collier and Naples during the regular season, while losing to First Baptist Academy and Class 4S No. 21 team Bartow.

Still, making a district champion the eighth seed doesn't happen all that often.

Region 3S-4 has another quirk, with third seed Barron Collier being sent on the road to play No. 6 Port Charlotte.

ESOL: Lee School District exploring ways to better serve students From page 1 Sarmiento said.

That transformation includes creating a common language around words used to describe and talk about ESOL students. Supporting schools is another way to transform the program.

“The district ESOL specialist and school did not have a clear understanding of supporting schools,” Sarmiento said.

The new vision The new vision of support for schools falls under English Language Learner tiers of support and an action planner.

The tiers include developing an action plan, customized professional learning sessions, targeted planning support for Professional Learning Communities, data review and progress monitoring meetings as requested by school, classroom visits monitoring instruction, on-demand support, ESOL specialist support visits, modeling lessons and/or interventions and guidance for student small group interventions.

“The action planner is to help guide support given at each school with three focus areas,” she said, adding that there are objectives and goals set up for each area.

The vision also includes the role of the ESOL contact for curriculum and instruction, which includes providing ongoing professional learning, supporting professional learning communities and progress monitoring student achievement data.

“This area is critical and ESOL contacts to grow to help capacity in school,” Sarmiento said of ongoing professional learning.

Sarmiento said it’s about shifting the mindset of ESOL contacts and administrators, which is a positive change that goes beyond compliance tasks.

The hope is also to bring two ESOL compliance specialists to six with each zone having two dedicated compliance specialists.

Sarmiento is also applying for an Immigrant Grant to add two support employees who speak Spanish and Haitian Creole to help talk with families, so they receive support while transitioning from other countries.

By the numbers There are currently 18,478 ESOL students enrolled in the district, a number that is always a moving target as students become language proficient and exit the program.

The majority of 18,478 students in the ESOL program speak Spanish, with 15,176 students; 1,201 speak Haitian Creole and 586 speak Portuguese.

“It is going to take time for you to develop language — three to five years to get a solid foundation to learn a new language,” Sarmiento said. If we are “not looking at every child and trying to make best interventions and decisions about them, we will continue to see the cycle we are in.”

Students are reevaluated at their third year to see how they are doing.

Some remain in the program their for their entire education.

There are currently students in the ESOL program that began in kindergarten and are now in high school, she said.

“That should not be the case,” Sarmiento said. “It cannot be language at that point. There is more training that our ESOL contacts need. We can put support in place for these kids.”

The enrollment over the last few years include: ■ 2020-2021 — 12,414 ■ 2021-2022 — 15,408 ■ 2022-2023 — 21,227 ■ 2023-2024 — 20,582 — the number pending at the summer for the ESOL program.

“This past summer we exited 85 students that performed on grade level during spring 2023 testing season,” she said, explaining why there was a dip at the end of the school year to the start of the year.

Proficiency scores The presentation included testing scores.

FAST testing for Spring 2023 with achievement levels 3,4 and 5 ■ English Language Arts — English Language Learner of 10.1% compared to non-English Language Learner of 52.9% ■ Math — grades 3-8 – 30% for ELL and 59% for nonELL students ■ Algebra — 15.3% for spring 2023

■ Geometry — 13.9% for spring 2023

Sarmiento said they are currently partnering with the elementary curriculum team, executive directors, chief academic officer and deputy superintendent to help train teachers with science in reading with specific modules dedicated to oral language development and language acquisition, which in turn will help start to close the gap.

There is also intervention for other areas, such as math with Imagine Math and after school tutoring sessions in math for elementary and middle school students. For high school students the ESOL department is working with the math curriculum department to provide professional development.

For Next Generation Sunshine State Standards Science for fifth grade students 13% received a level 3-5 in the spring of 2023 and 8% for eighth graders. Fourteen percent were proficient for end of course biology scores in the spring of 2023. In the spring of 2023 13.4% were proficient in U.S. history and 22.1% in seventh and eighth grade civics.

She said there was a significant downward trend in U.S. history and civics, which may be attributed to background knowledge, as well as different government structures from where they grew up.

These students also test on World Class Instructional Design and Assessment standards, which are English Language Proficiency Standards that measure academic language skills. These focus on social and instructional language, language of language arts, language of mathematics, language of science and language of social studies.

The percentage of proficiency levels – four to six – for the 2023 school year: ■ Listening — 55% compared to 71.82% in 2022 and 72.6% in 2021 ■ Speaking — 35.02%, compared to 44.52% in 2022 and 44.98% in 2021 ■ Reading — 16.58%, compared to 13.99% in 2022 and 23.6% in 2021 ■ Writing — 17.0%, compared to 19.41% in 2022 and 25.38% in 2021 ■ Overall — 12%, compared to 16% in 2022 and 2021% in 2021.

City wage study: Council to discuss compensation assessment findings From page 1 offered,” the report states. “The City of Cape Coral’s wellness initiatives are especially strong due to the offering of the health clinic, nutritionist, and incentives.”

The total compensation market assessment study, done

by Segal, will be presented during today’s Cape Coral City Council workshop.

Segal collected information regarding actual pay and base pay range, health benefits, retirement benefits, pay plan information and paid time off benefits.

The data collected included 65 general union and 20 non-bargaining jobs from the cities of Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Lakeland, Naples, North Port, Orlando, Palm Bay, Port St. Lucie and St. Petersburg.

The market study reports that the city’s general union positions “on an overall basis, lags the market at the minimum and maximum for base pay. The base pay midpoint was competitive.” As far as total compensation, the city leads the market’s 75th percentile.

The study for non-bargaining positions “on an overall basis, lags the market at the minimum but is competitive at the midpoint and maximum for base pay.”

The city also leads the market’s 75th percentile for

non-bargaining as far as total compensation goes.

City employees said last week during public input that given the current cost of living wages are too low.

Councilmember Tom Hayden said discussion is warranted.

“It’s important for council, at least for me, to have that conversation of where we rank in terms of salary and total compensation packages,” Hayden said.

“It looks like the city is doing fairly well for the total compensation package, but light and behind at the beginning and at the maximum pay,” he said, adding $15 an hour doesn’t cut it anymore — it should be closer to $20.

The task at hand will be to see how that factors into other salaries and pay levels.

“We will have to take a look at that,” he said. “The union is concerned about pay and wages and pay grades and step plans. They have contract negotiations next year.

The study was completed to give us more of an idea of where we stood with cities that were selected by both the city and union to look at.”

The workshop will be held today, Nov. 8, beginning at 9 a.m., in City Council Chambers, at 1015 Cultural Park Blvd.

Greenwell chairman of County Commission The Lee Board of County Commissioners on Tuesday selected District 5 Commissioner Mike Greenwell to serve as board chairman for the coming year and District 1 Commissioner Kevin Ruane to serve as vice chairman.

Bradenton St. Stephen's Episcopal 14, Oasis 7 (OT) (SSAA 5A playoffs): The Sharks battled top seed St. Stephens to a 7-all tie in regulation before being knocked out of the Sunshine State Athletic Association playoffs.

Colin Anderson ran for the Sharks' touchdown. The defense, led by Dequan Forte-Marsico and Rex Williams, held the Falcons' offense in check all night. Oasis finished up 6-4, while St. Stephens (8-2) advanced to the 5A championship game.
