Introduction: Regional and National Background The U.S. economy grew at 2.3 percent in the second quarter of 215, the Commerce Department reported on July 3. This figure, which is sure to be revised, fell below most economists estimates and follows a weaker first quarter growth rate of.6 percent, itself an upward revision from previous estimates that indicated contraction. While many economists project stronger growth during the remainder of 215, a Federal Reserve staff forecast inadvertently released to the public in June predicted overall growth of 1.55 percent for the year. Nonetheless, the Fed hinted in its June policy statement it sees enough strength in the labor market to justify raising its short-term interest rate target. The decision to remove policy accommodation may yet be delayed by events in China and Greece, as well as trends in retail sales and oil prices. Seasonally-adjusted regional taxable sales for April 215 were up seven percent ($126 million) over April 214. Seasonally-adjusted tourist tax revenues for May 215 were up three percent for the region encompassing Collier, Lee, and Charlotte counties. May 215 passenger activity for the three Southwest Florida airports was four percent higher than the May 214 figure. Another positive sign came from Realtor sales of existing single-family homes, with the three coastal counties reporting an eight percent increase from June 214 to June 215, along with increases in median prices. The seasonally-adjusted unemployment rate for the five-county region dropped to 5.2 percent in June 215 compared to 6.1 percent a year earlier, while unemployment for the state of Florida was 5.5 percent in June 215, a decrease of eight-tenths of a percent in June 214. The national unemployment rate in June 215 was 5.3 percent, down from 6.1 percent in May 214. The June 215 national, state, and regional unemployment rates all showed improvement from the previous month. The number of long-term unemployed in the U.S. (those jobless for 27 weeks or longer) was 2.5 million in May 215, which is a 25.3 percent decrease from May 214 and 28.6 percent of all unemployed. The June Bureau of Labor Statistics Establishment Survey showed that national nonfarm payroll employment increased by 223, for the month, a decrease of 31, from May. Employment growth nationally averaged 245, per month over the last 12 months. The June employment increases included 64, in professional and business services, 4, in health care, 33, in retail trade, 22, in leisure and hospitality, 2, in financial activities, and 17, in transportation and warehousing. June decreases in employment included 4, in mining. Employment in construction, manufacturing, wholesale trade, information, and government showed little or no change over the month. The national consumer price index (CPI) in June 215 was only.18 percent lower than June 214. The year-to-year decline in gasoline prices has offset much of the increase in the other elements of the index. The shelter index (rental equivalence measure for homeowner costs) has risen 2.7 percent over the last 12 3
4 months. Medical care services increased 2.5 percent, and energy prices decreased 16.3 percent. Core inflation (all items less food and energy) increased by 1.7 percent. National housing prices increased 4.9 percent for the 2-city composite S & P Case-Shiller Home Price Index in the 12 months ending May 215. The latest statement of the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee (FOMC) was issued on July 29th. Its key points included the following: Economic activity has been expanding moderately in recent months; Household spending growth has been moderate, and the housing sector has shown additional improvement; Business fixed investment and net exports stayed soft; The labor market continued to improve, with solid job gains and declining unemployment; Inflation continues to run below the Committee s longer-run objective, partly reflecting earlier declines in energy prices, while survey-based measures of longer-term inflation expectations have remained stable;; Inflation is anticipated to remain near its recent low level in the near term, but the Committee expects inflation to rise gradually toward 2 percent over the medium term; The Committee anticipates that it will raise the target range for the federal funds rate when it has seen some further improvement in the labor market and is reasonably confident that inflation will move back to its 2-percent objective over the medium term; When it begins to remove policy accommodation, the Committee will take a balanced approach consistent with its longer-run goals of maximum employment and inflation of 2 percent. The Committee currently anticipates that economic conditions may, for some time, warrant keeping the target federal funds rate below levels the Committee views as normal in the longer run. The next FOMC meeting is scheduled for September 16-17, 215. The FOMC released its latest quarterly forecast for real GDP and the unemployment rate on June 17, 215, as shown in the following "box and whiskers" charts. The red boxes are the central tendency forecast, and the full range of uncertainty is reflected in the whiskers, or vertical lines. The June forecast was similar to the March forecast but reflects slightly less optimistic growth and unemployment estimates for 215. The GDP chart shows the recovery that started in 29 and that the current projections are close to the normal long-run trend ( LR ). For 215, the overall projected range is 1.7 to 2.3 percent with a central tendency range of 1.8 to 2. percent. For 216, the overall projected range is 2.3 to 3. percent with a central tendency range of 2.4 to 2.7 percent. For 217, the overall projected range is 2. to 2.5 percent with a central tendency range of 2.1 to 2.5 percent. The long-run trend for real GDP has a range of 1.8 to 2.5 percent growth with a central tendency range of 2. to 2.3 percent. Real GDP growth rates are based on the change from the fourth quarter of one year to the fourth quarter of the next year. 4

As shown in the following chart, the U.S. unemployment rate has continued to decline. For 215, the projected range for the unemployment rate is 5. to 5.3 percent with a central tendency range of 5.2 to 5.3 percent. For 216, the projected range for the unemployment rate is 4.6 to 5.2 percent with a central tendency range of 4.9 to 5.1 percent. For 217, the projected range for the unemployment rate is 4.8 to 5.5 percent with a central tendency range of 4.9 to 5.1 percent. Long-run unemployment is expected to be in a range of 5. to 5.8 percent with a central tendency of 5. to 5.2 percent. The projections for unemployment are for the fourth quarter of each year. 5

7 Arrivals plus Departures - Thousands Airport Passenger Activity Airport passenger activity is the sum of arrivals and departures for Southwest Florida International (RSW), Sarasota Bradenton International (SRQ), and Punta Gorda (PGD) airports. Peak seasonal activity occurs in February, March, and April, with significantly lower activity in the summer months. Charts 1, 2, and 3 illustrate the seasonality of airport passenger traffic and the changes from year to year. In May 215, passenger activity for the three Southwest Florida airports was 767,551, a four-percent increase over May 214. All three facilities reported year-to-date improvement over the prior period, resulting in a regional increase of over 28, passengers (five percent) in the five-month period ending May 31. Chart 1 shows Southwest Florida International Airport passenger activity of 62,891 in May 215, up two percent over May 214. Sarasota Bradenton Airport recorded 98,91 passengers in May 215, a two percent increase over May 214, as shown in Chart 2. Punta Gorda passenger activity amounted to 65,759 in May 215, up 27 percent over May 214, as shown in Chart 3. 1,2 Chart 1: SW Florida International Passenger Activity SW Florida International Airport (RSW) Passenger Activity 1,1 1, Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Source: Local Airport Authorities 7

The seasonally-adjusted unemployment rate for our five-county region improved to 5.2 percent in June 215, down from 6.1 percent in June 214, and from 5.6 percent in May 215. The regional improvement is primarily attributable to a decrease of 5,375 unemployed from June 214 to June 215. Total employed increased by only 474. Lee County's seasonally-adjusted unemployment rate amounted to 4.9 percent in June 215, down from 5.9 percent in June 214 and from 5.4 percent in May 215, as shown in Chart 12. Collier County s unemployment rate was 5. percent in June 215, down from 5.7 percent in June 214 and from 5.4 percent in May 215, as shown in Chart 13.

Bolstered by gains in June, the long-term trend continues to be positive for both indices. The national ICS was up 5.4 points to 96.1 in June 215 from 9.7 in May 215 and from 82.5 in June 214. This essentially offsets the decline between April 215 and May 215. In the June 26, 215 Survey of Consumers, chief economist Richard Curtin noted that The remarkably favorable economic assessments documented in the recent surveys were due to two factors. An improving economy was the most important component. But the gains were so outsized that they probably reflected the acceptance of a new lower comparison standard that was based on diminished expectations for long-term economic prospects. Parsing just how much has been due to an improving economy and how much to an acceptance of diminished economic standards will be revealed by their subsequent consumption behavior. Needless to say, the answer to this question has critical implications for appropriate economic policies. The Florida Consumer Sentiment Index rose to 89.5 in June 215, up 1.6 points from the May 215 figure, and 7.3 points higher than the June 214 figure. In the Florida Consumer Sentiment Index released on June 26, 215, Survey Director Chris McCarty noted that [t]he overall gains in the Florida index in June were among older and low income households. These two demographics showed particular strength in their 19
20 Jun-12 Sep-12 Dec-12 Mar-13 Jun-13 Sep-13 Dec-13 Mar-14 Jun-14 Sep-14 Dec-14 Mar-15 Jun-15 expectations about their personal finances a year from now, and were the only demographic to report their current finances being better than a year ago. In contrast, households with more than $5, in income reported a 12-point decline in their perceptions of their current personal finances. [This is] unusual given that most economic indicators that would affect upper income households remain positive.

22 Population - Thousands Population As previously reported, the following charts show historic population growth as well as population projections recently updated by the Office of Economic and Demographic Research (EDR) working with the University of Florida's Bureau of Economic and Business Research (BEBR). Regional population growth from 199 to 213 averaged 2.8 percent per year and is shown in Charts 23 and 24. The compound average annual rate of growth for 199 to 213 was 3.5 percent in Collier County, 2.9 percent in Lee, 2.2 percent in Glades County, and 1.7 percent each in Charlotte and Hendry Counties. Chart 25 and its accompanying table show projected population increases from 215 to 24. The regional projected population growth averages a slower 1.5 percent per year, resulting in a population increase of 5 percent for the five-county region from 213 to 24. The total 5-county population projection is 1,79,74 for 24. Lee County population is projected to grow an average of 1.8 percent per year, Collier County at 1.4 percent, and Charlotte County at.8 percent per year. Hendry County s population is projected to grow at an average of.3 percent per year and Glades County at.8 percent per year.
