Nikki W. Kay is identified as the duly appointed City Recorder for the City of Naples, according to several municipal documents issued throughout the first half of 2026. As the City Recorder, Kay is responsible for certifying that official agendas are posted for public view on the City’s website and the State Public Meeting Notice website.
Residents encounter Kay's work through the official documentation of city governance. For example, an agenda for a Naples City Council meeting scheduled for March 26, 2026, was certified by Kay, according to the notice of cancellation for that meeting. Similarly, Kay provided certification for the agenda of a Naples City Council meeting that was scheduled for May 28, 2026, according to the city's notice of cancellation for that meeting.
The administrative duties of the City Recorder involve the formal processing of meeting notices and agendas for various municipal functions. As of the Naples City Council meeting agenda dated June 25, 2026, Kay is listed as the undersigned, duly appointed City Recorder certifying that the agenda was posted at the Naples City Office, on the City’s website, and on the State Public Meeting Notice website. This same certification process is visible in other municipal documents. According to the Naples City Council meeting agenda dated July 9, 2026, Kay serves as the undersigned, duly appointed City Recorder who certifies that the agenda was posted at the Naples City Office, on the City’s website, and on the State Public Meeting Notice website.
In addition to regular council meetings, the City Recorder's certification appears on agendas for specialized sessions. For instance, the Naples City Budget Workshop Meeting agenda for November, as recorded in a document dated May 13, 2026, lists Kay as the undersigned, duly appointed City Recorder certifying that the agenda was posted at the Naples City Office, on the City’s website, and on the State Public Meeting Notice website.
Through these various postings, Kay facilitates the transparency required for municipal operations. Whether the council is discussing land use ordinances, such as the changes to the Planning Commission Bylaws discussed in a June 25, 2026, agenda, or addressing public safety member contribution pick-up as noted in the May 13, 2026, budget workshop agenda, the City Recorder's certification ensures these items are officially communicated to the public. Residents can track these proceedings through the website and office locations specified in the documents certified by Kay, which include the Naples City offices located at 1420 East 2850 South.
