III. LHAP INCENTIVE STRATEGIES:
In addition to Strategy A and Strategy B, include all adopted incentives with the policies
and procedures used daily for implementation as provided in Section 420.9076, F.S.:
Name of the Strategy: Expedited Permitting
Collier County will expedite permits as defined in Sec. 163.3164(7) and (8), F.S. for
affordable housing projects to a greater degree than other projects. Affordable
housing projects will be identified as those projects assisted with state or federal
housing funds.
a. Provide a description of the procedures used to implement this strategy:
Collier County Board of County Commissioners adopted Resolution No.2007-176
on July 24, 2007, superseding and replacing Resolution 2005-408, amending the
procedures for expediting the development review process for qualified
affordable-workforce housing including community workforce housing
innovation program (CWHIP) projects.
Initially, a qualification meeting is called with the developer and staff to
determine if the project meets the affordable housing requirements. Those
projects that demonstrate compliance will be issued a certificate to allow
the expedited review process for all development orders. Planning and Zoning
will provide expedited status by assisting these developments first throughout the
process from application through Certificate of Occupancy.
In 2010-2011, Collier County refined the building permit process and
performance measures were developed to facilitate the expedited performance and
allow the county to closely monitor its performance and adherence to this policy.
The current building permit process is 5, 10, 15 days, however single family
permits that are using state or federal funding will be moved to the top of the
permit process queue.
Name of the Strategy: Ongoing Review Process
Collier County requires all items which have the potential to increase the cost of
housing to be prepared and presented to the Collier County Board of County
Commissioners with the amount of the increase or decrease mentioned in the
executive summary.
i.) Provide a description of the procedures used to implement this strategy:
The process, by which items are prepared for the BCC Agenda includes a vast
approval hierarchy to ensure that all proposed actions impacting affordable
housing are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Furthermore, the Collier County
Affordable Housing Advisory Committee regularly forms subcommittees to
18
Adoption Date:April 23,2013
Revision Date:April 8,2014
Revision Date:June 23,2015
review impediments to affordable housing, as well as new affordable housing
incentives.
Name of the Strategy: Increased Density for Affordable Housing
Collier County allows developers to request increased density when including a
certain percentage of affordable housing in the proposed development.
j.) Provide a description of the procedures used to implement this strategy:
An Affordable Housing Density Bonus Agreement must be submitted and
approved by the Collier County Board of County Commissioners as provided for
in the Collier County Land Development Code, ss. 2.06.00.
Name of the Strategy: Inventory of Locally Owned Public Lands Suitable for Affordable
Housing.
a. Provide a description of the procedures used to implement this strategy:
Collier County prepares an inventory of all real property owned by Collier County
that may be appropriate for use as affordable housing in accordance with Sec.
125.379 F.S. every three years.
Collier County Resolution No. 2007-172, adopted June 26, 2007, permits
properties identified as appropriate for use as affordable housing may be offered
for sale and the proceeds used to purchase land for the development of affordable
housing or to increase the local government fund earmarked for affordable
housing, or may be sold with a restriction that requires the development of the
property as permanent affordable housing, or may be donated to a nonprofit
housing organization for the construction of permanent affordable housing.
