Community Character Plan
Technical Memorandum #3
l~larch 9t 200! - The narrative below appeared in a draft form of the Community
Character Plan document~ hut was removed from the Character Plan at the direction
of County Staff and will therefore not appear in the published version. However~ this
material may be useful to the County or its Rural Fringe Committee in the future, so
it has been reformatted as this Technical Memorandum #3 from the consultants to
the County staff.
The Future of the Future Land Use Map
Cjustering: Stealth Sprawl or Rural Preservation?
Most rural areas outside Collier County's urban growth boundary are zoned for agriculture.
These properties can also be developed, under existing rules, as 5-acre homesites or with golf
courses. This is an ideal time for these rules to be re-examined, while the county's Rural Fringe
Committee is working vigorously to craft recommendations on how best to regulate this area.
"Cjustering" provisions, while written with the best of intentions, often make it possible to group
homes on smaller lots in a pattern resembling conventional suburban sprawl. Golf courses can
also be built on easements across full-size 5-acre lots. These scenarios can inadvertently
become formulas for stealth sprawl, in which suburban development beyond the boundary is
legalized without having to ask the political body to officially move the boundary eastward.
"Standalone" golf courses are also allowed in rural areas, creating two concerns. First, as borne
out by recent Collier County experience, standalone golf courses tend to be precursors to
leapfrog residential development because they drive up land values in anticipation of similar
approvals being granted in the future. Second, experts contend that wildlife, while impacted by
agricultural uses and 5-acre lots, will nevertheless cross those territories, but will rarely venture
onto heavily used golf courses. Thus golf courses set up "walls" that impact wildlife habitat
much more seriously than farming or large lots. This effect is multiplied when the golf course is
eventually combined with cjustered residential development, especially if the development is
configured conventionally, as fingers of disconnected streets that disturb large territories for
relatively few houses.
On the other hand, it is conceivable that true rural cjustering could result in compact hamlets or
villages, with miles-wide bands of connected, undisturbed habitat or rural land in between. This
approach to cjustering could result in simultaneous preservation of property rights, rural
character, and environmentally sensitive areas, while making conservation of agricultural land
much more viable. Thus all cjustering is not created equal, and telling good cjustering from bad
is more a matter of context-sensitive design than one of density formulas. A basic test for
Collier County's rural areas: will a cjuster development increase rural character and preserve
farmland or connected native upland habitats, or will it result in farmland and native habitats
being broken up and replaced with fairways and gated streets?
Collier Community Character Plan
Technical Memorandum #3

Preserving Options for the Future
Someday Collier County may run out of room for its growing urban population, once vacant
land is filled up west of the present urban boundary and in Immokalee and Golden Gate
Estates, :If this occurs, even many decades from now, the county will need to rethink the
location of its urban boundary,a
However, if close-in rural land has meanwhile been used for relatively few dwellings in large
gated cjusters and golf courses, that land will never be available for normal settlement patterns
if some rural areas need to be urbanized. The result could be the need to place future urban
development to the east of Golden Gate Estates, exacerbating traffic congestion by lengthening
car trips and separating neighborhoods even further from the jobs and shopping that are
concentrated near Naples. Therefore, keeping rural areas rural, at least for now, is the best way
to preserve rural character and avoid foreclosing the ability of future generations to reasonably
use parts of what are now rural areas but which can also be considered as Collier County's
potential "urban reserve."
The following recommendations would implement the suggested change regarding
suburban development outside the urban boundary
Tntent
New suburban and urban development should be kept within the current urban boundary rather
than being allowed to creep further into the countryside. Redevelopment and vacant acreage
inside the urban boundary should be used to accommodate most anticipated growth.
Changes to the Growth Management Plan
a. Amend the description of the "Agricultural/Rural designation" (page 35) so that suburban and
urban development can no longer occur in this designation by "cjustering" the one-unit-per-five-
acre rural density into a suburban development pattern. The allowable density in this category
would not change, but new golf courses would not be permitted, and cjustering of allowable
dwelling units would be allowed only to the extent that it allows increased protection of native
lands and rural character.
