April 4, 2007
"Gaspar Station PUD"
Section 30,Township 48 South, Range 26 East
- Presenters were sworn in by the Assistant County Attorney Jeff Wright.
Mr.Jacobson,Mr. Penniman and Mr. Miller all stated they had visited the
site.
Mr.Anderson explained the County is requiring the property owner to seek a
rezone from PUD to PUD because the County believes under the PUD sunset
rules the current PUD has"sunsetted" because of the passage of time with no
construction; existing zoning remains in place but the property owner cannot
get any development orders approved for the property until it is rezoned. The
purpose of sunsetting a PUD is to require revision to reflect current Land
Development Code standards. The PUD Master Plan identifies the preserve
area, the old one didnot; building setbacks from the preserve area have been
added to the PUD. The property is located in an interstate activity center
where the full array of commercial uses would be allowed and it has been
zoned for commercial use for more than 20 years. What is presently known as
the Stiles PUD is being renamed Gaspar Station. There are no changes to the
historically allowed uses of the property; the only changes to the PUD are the
changes to the development standards the County now requires. There are no
issues with the environmental review staff, and they have recommended
approval. The PUD preserve area connects to the adjacent preserve area,
Livingston Lakes, creating a larger preserve area. Recommendation for
approval was requested.
Mr. Penniman stated adjacent preserves are what are desired. He asked if the
lake could be placed at a location other than that on the drawing, what other
possible locations would there be, and what criteria caused moving the lake
from close to the preserve area to another location.
Mr. Anderson stated it was probably a design consideration.
Dr. Hushon stated the presence of wetland area along the western border was
considered. Proposed location of the lake and preserve would reduce required
mitigation.
Mr. Penniman stated the lake is small and would not make a big difference to
Cocohatchee drainage.
Ms. Mason stated staff recommends approval of the rezone with the inclusion
of any conditions in the Land Development Code not covered by the PUD and
the petitioner must get a South Florida Water Management District ERP prior
to development.
Mr. Anderson stated the first PUD was approved in 1988.
Mr. Miller suggested the Environmental Advisory Council recommend the
lake be maintained in its current condition.
3
April 4, 2007
Sean Weeks,P.E., SPW Engineering, agreed that the water body would be
adjacent to the preserve but petitioner would like latitude as to the
configuration with the surface area of the lake remaining the same, 2.1 acres.
Dr.Hushon moved to approve the petition with the stipulation that the lake
would remain adjacent to the preserve, the configuration of the lake may
vary and staff recommendations are to be followed. Seconded by Mr.
Penniman. Motion carried unanimously 7-0.
VII. Old Business
Ms. Mason stated there have been no land use petitions heard by the Collier
County Board of County Commissioners since the Environmental Advisory
Council's last meeting.
It was stated the minimum lighting limits are too high and requested staff review
lighting standards and report back.
Mr. Hughes suggested petitioning the Collier County Board of County
Commissioners for a court reporter to take verbatim minutes of Environmental
Advisory Council meetings.
Ms. Burgeson stated there is no money in the budget for expanded minutes and
that there is a visual and audio verbatim record available if needed.
Dr. Hushon moved to request permission to receive more complete minutes in
the style that was received historically by this council to more accurately reflect
our language during deliberations. Seconded by Mr. Sorrell. Motion carried
unanimously 7-0.
VIII. New Business
None.
IX. Subcommittee Reports
Dr. Hushon requested volunteers for people to work on Growth Management
Plan and Land Development Code rules. Mr. Jacobson's,Mr. Hill's and Mr.
Miller's volunteer services were accepted.
Mr. Hughes stated he would like to review what pesticides are legal in Collier
County and would like to hear from the EPA and Ray Smith.
Dr. Hushon stated work is going forward on watershed management plans and
asked for volunteers for collection and review of information. This will be a
three-to-four year activity with Mac Hatcher in charge.
X. Council Member Comments
Mr. Hughes stated his term as Chairman ends soon and he would like to see Dr.
Hushon as Chairman.

April 4, 2007
Mr. Miller and the current Council members introduced themselves to each
other.
XI. Public Comments
Bruce Anderson,Esq., addressed a petition for Florida Rock Mine regarding a
project within the North Belle Meade overlay on receiving lands that are already
approved by the Comprehensive Plan for earth mining. Because of the
regulations, it comes formally before the Environmental Advisory Council;
however, under the terms of the North Belle Meade overlay, development on
receiving lands are not subject to the County's environmental regulations because
the North Belle Meade overlay has much more specific and detailed regulations
for environmental considerations than other areas within the rural fringe. The
matter will be coming before the Environmental Advisory Council as a formal
informational item to answer questions. This situation is similar to an APAC
petition that came before Council previously.
XII. Adjournment
Mr. Penniman moved to adjourn the meeting. Seconded by Mr. Sorrell.
Motion carried unanimously 7-0.
*****
There being no further business for the good of the County,the meeting was
adjourned by the order of the Chair at 10:21 AM.

II. LOCATION:
^ The subject properties, consisting of 4.32 acres, are located at 10111 and 10121
Keewaydin Island, in Section 14,Township 51 South, Range 25 East.
III. DESCRIPTION OF SURROUNDING PROPERTIES:
ZONING DESCRIPTION
N - A-ST Conservation (unimproved)
S - A-ST Conservation (unimproved)
E - A-ST Conservation (intercoastal waterway)
W - Gulf of Mexico
IV. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Basil Street Partners, LLC, represented by Clay Brooker, Esquire, of Cheffy
Passidomo Wilson & Johnson, are requesting a conditional use allowed per LDC
Section 2.04.03 of the Rural Agricultural (A) zoning district to provide a passive
�-. recreational facility, consisting of an elevated and screened beach shelter with
restrooms and an "educational kiosk," which will serve as an amenity and provide
EAC Meeting
Page 2 of 12
beach access for owners and residents of the Naples Bay Resort project. The Passive
Recreational Facility will be constructed on two lots on Keewaydin Island.
V. GROWTH MANAGEMENT PLAN CONSISTENCY:
Future Land Use Element:
COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING COMMENTS: The subject property is designated
Conservation, as identified on the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) of the Growth
Management Plan. The overall purpose of the Conservation Designation of the
Future Land Use Element, is to conserve and maintain the natural resources of the
County, and their associated environmental, recreational and economic benefits.
Based on their ecological value and sensitivity to perturbation, all proposals for
development in this designation are subject to rigorous review to ensure that the
impacts of the development do not destroy or unacceptably degrade the inherent
functional values of these areas. In addition to limited residential development, the
Conservation Designation permits recreational camps, passive parks, and other
passive recreational uses; and the essential services necessary to serve these
permitted uses, such as private wells and septic tanks.
FLUE Policy 5.4 requires new land uses to be compatible with the surrounding area.
Comprehensive Planning leaves this determination to Zoning and Land Development
Review staff as part of their review of the petition in its totality.
IV. CONSERVATION DESIGNATION
Natural resource protection strategies and standards for development in the
Conservation Designation are found in the Conservation and Coastal Management
Element and the County's Land Development Regulations. The Conservation
Designation will accommodate limited residential development and future non
residential uses. The following uses are authorized in this Designation.
Natural resource protection strategies and standards for development in the
Conservation Designation are found in the Conservation and Coastal Management
Element and the County's Land Development Regulations. The Conservation
Designation will accommodate limited residential development and future non
residential uses. The following uses are authorized in this Designation.
a. For privately held lands, single family dwelling units, and mobile homes
where the Mobile Home Zoning Overlay exists, at a maximum density of one
dwelling unit per five gross acres, or one dwelling unit per 3 gross acres for
private in-holdings within the Big Cypress National Preserve in existence
prior to October 14, 1974 - each dwelling unit must be physically situated on
a minimum five acre parcel, or minimum 3 acre parcel for private in-holdings
EAC Meeting
Page 3 of 12
within the Big Cypress National Preserve in existence prior to October 14,
1974. This Plan does not allow residential density on publicly owned lands.
b. For publicly and privately held lands, dormitories, duplexes and other types
of housing, as may be incidental to, and in support of, conservation uses;
c. Group housing uses subject to the following density/intensity limitations:
Family Care Facilities: 1 unit per 5 acres; Group Care Facilities and other
Care Housing Facilities: Maximum Floor Area Ratio (FAR) not to exceed
0.45;
d. Sporting and Recreational camps incidental to Conservation uses on public
lands; or, on privately held lands, within which the lodging component shall
not exceed 1 unit per 5 gross acres, which may be achieved through
clustering;
e. Habitat preservation and conservation uses;
f. Passive parks, and other passive recreational uses;
,.� g. Agricultural uses consistent with Chapter 823.14(6) Florida Statutes (Florida
Right to Farm Act);
h. Essential Services necessary to serve permitted uses identified in Section a
through g above such as the following: private wells and septic tanks; utility
lines, except sewer lines; sewer lines and lift stations, only if located within
non-NRPA Conservation Lands, and only if located within already cleared
portions of existing rights-of-way or easements, and if necessary to serve a
publicly owned or privately owned central sewer system providing service to
urban areas and/or the Rural Transition Water and Sewer District; and, water
pumping stations necessary to serve a publicly owned or privately owned
central water system providing service to urban areas and/or the Rural
Transition Water and Sewer District.
i. Essential Services necessary to ensure public safety.
j. Oil extraction and related processing. Where practicable, directional-drilling
techniques and/or previously cleared or disturbed areas shall be utilized to
minimize impacts to native habitats.
According to the Conservation and Coastal Management Element, Policy 10.3.12,
for areas identified as Coastal Barrier systems, new developments or redevelopments
are required to be in the form of a Planned Unit Development (PUD), however, the
petitioner has previously discussed this with the County Planning and Environmental
EAC Meeting
Page 4 of 12
staff, who have taken the position that the conditional use process and not a PUD
rezone should be utilized for this project.
In the past, the County Legal Department has been reluctant to enforce policy
10.3.12, determining that the County cannot legally mandate PUD's but merely
encourage them. Furthermore, inconsistencies between the Growth Management
Plan (GMP) and Land Development Code (LDC) resulted in an amendment to policy
10.3.12 of the Coastal and Conservation Management Element (CCME), which was
forwarded to Board of County Commissioners (BCC) for review and approval in
early January 2007. The amended language has been forwarded to the Florida
Department of Community Affairs, for final review. The amended language is as
follows:
Coastal and Conservation Management Element:
Policy 10.3.12
Require Encourage the use of the "Planned Unit Development" (PUD) provisions of
the Zoning Ordinance for new developments or redevelopments proposed to take
place within areas identified as Coastal Barrier system with the exception of one
single family dwelling unit on a single parcel.
.-� CONCLUSION: Based upon the above analysis, staff concludes this petition may be
deemed consistent with the Future Land Use Element.
Conservation & Coastal Management Element:
The project as proposed is consistent with the Policies and Objectives of the
Conservation &Coastal Management Element, for the following reasons:
Objective 2.2 of the Conservation and Coastal Management Element of the Growth
Management Plan states "All canals, rivers, and flow ways discharging into estuaries
shall meet all applicable federal, state, or local water quality standards. This project
is consistent with the objectives of policy 2.2.2 in that there is no site stormwater
system to degrade receiving waters, as the hydrology will not be altered and roof
runoff will be cisterned.
As required by Policy 6.1.4, prohibited exotic vegetation will be removed from the
site and maintained in perpetuity.
The EIS required by Policy 6.1.8 has been prepared and is supplied as part of the
review packet for this submittal.
Jurisdictional wetland line was delineated on September 12, 2002 for the boat dock
^� permit that also allowed for the boardwalk over the wetlands to the upland line
which is provided on the site plan as required by Policy 6.2.1 and 6.2.2.
EAC Meeting
Page 5 of 12
As required by Policy 6.2.6, preservation areas are depicted on the site plan shall be
protected by a separately recorded conservation easement at the time of the next
development order.
The project does not propose impacts to submerged marine habitat and is consistent
with Objective 6.3 which requires the County to protect and conserve submerged
marine habitats.
The project as proposed is consistent with the Objective 7.1 in that a Gopher tortoise
management plan has been created and the main facility proposed is located away
from the area of main concentration of Gopher tortoise burrows. No construction
will occur in beach areas and all construction will occur outside of sea turtle nesting
season. Any lighting for security purposes will be low-level and directional so as to
minimize potential disorientation of sea turtle hatchlings. Lighting plan will be
reviewed and approved as part of SDP.
As required by Policy 7.1.2, a listed species survey was conducted on the property
and is contained in the EIS. Habitat management plans are provided and will be
implemented as part of the next development order.
The property is not located within Priority panther habitat and is not with in the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service panther consultation area. However, recently a collared
panther(FP 147) was documented on Keewaydin Island on three separate occasions.
According to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission staff, the
panther is not expected to stay out on the island very long or take up permanent
residence. Lack of forage and limited room to move around in will most likely
discourage the panther from utilizing this area.
Only appropriate native vegetation shall be utilized for any supplemental planting or
restoration of the dune and construction areas and is consistent with Policy 10.3.5:
"Native or other County approved vegetation shall be required as the stabilizing
medium in any coastal barrier vegetation or restoration program"
The only structure proposed seaward of the CCSL is the access crossover which is
consistent with Policy 10.3.6: "Prohibit construction of structures seaward of the
Coastal Construction Control Line on undeveloped coastal barriers. Exception shall
be for passive recreational structures, access crossovers, and where enforcement
would not allow any reasonable economic utilization of such property. In the latter
event, require construction that minimizes interference with natural function of such
coastal barrier system."
The project clearing as proposed would be less than the clearing if two single family
homes were constructed on the two platted lots. This would be consistent with
EAC Meeting
Page 6 of 12
Policy 10.3.8: "Development density on undeveloped coastal barrier systems shall
not exceed the lowest density provided in the Future Land Use Element." Also there
are currently no criteria for staff to evaluate the Intensity of use versus the Density
proposed on a property.
The project as proposed is consistent with the Policy 10.3.9: "Native vegetation on
undeveloped coastal barriers should be preserved. To the extent that native
vegetation is lost during land development activities and the remaining native
vegetation can be supplemented without damaging or degrading its natural function,
any native vegetation lost during construction shall be replaced by supplementing
with compatible native vegetation on site. All exotic vegetation shall be removed and
replaced with native vegetation where appropriate." For the following reasons:
All exotic vegetation will be removed and replaced with native vegetation and any
vegetation damaged during construction will replaced by supplemental native
vegetation.
Policy 10.5.1: "Recreation that is compatible with the natural functions of beaches
and dunes is the highest and best land use." This is consistent with the policy in
that the project proposes the facility for recreation of the beach system.
The dune habitat that will be disturbed during construction delivery will be
restored upon completion of construction, consistent with Policy 10.5.3: "Prohibit
activities which would result in man induced shoreline erosion beyond the natural
beach erosion cycle or that would deteriorate the beach dune system."
The only structure seaward of the Coastal Construction Control Line is the beach
access crossover, which is a passive recreational structure and is consistent with
Policy 10.5.4: "Prohibit construction of any structure seaward of the Coastal
Construction Control Line.Exception shall be for passive recreational structures
access crossovers, and where enforcement would not allow any reasonable economic
utilization of such property. In the latter event, require construction that minimizes
interference with natural function of such beaches and dunes."
As required in Policy 10.5.5: "Prohibit motorize vehicles on the beaches and dunes
except for emergency and maintenance purposes. The County shall enforce this
requirement with the existing Vehicle on the Beach Ordinance." If needed a Vehicle
on The Beach Permit will be required for when material are delivered to the site for
construction of the facility.
10.5.9: "Prohibit construction seaward of the Coastal Construction Control
Line except as follows:
a. Construction will be allowed for public access;
b. For protection and restoration of beach resources;
EAC Meeting
Page 7 of 12
c. In cases of demonstrated land use related hardship or safety concerns as specified
in The 1985 Florida Coastal Zone Protection Act, there shall be no shore armoring
allowed except in cases of public safety."
The crossover is consistent with the policy in which it is the only structure seaward
of the Coastal Construction Control Line which provides protection to the beach
dune.
As required in Policy 10.5.10: "Construction activities shall not interfere with the sea
turtle nesting, shall preserve or replace any native vegetation on the site, and shall
maintain the natural beach profile and minimize interference with the natural beach
dynamics and function." All construction that is proposed will be conducted outside
of turtle nesting season. Any areas of dune habitat disturb during constructions
material delivery will be restored upon completion of constructions and native dune
planting will be utilized.
As required in Policy 10.5.12: "For all beach front land development related projects
require dune stabilization and restoration improvements, the removal of exotic
vegetation, and replacement with native vegetation, as appropriate."
The Florida Master Site Files has not indicated to any known historic or
archaeological resources on or near the site and is consistent with Objective 11.1:"To
protect historic and archaeological resource in Collier County."
L.D.C. 3.03.05 "An analysis shall be required demonstrating the impact of a six (6)
inch rise in sea level above NGVD for development projects on a shoreline. This
requirement shall be met by inclusion of this analysis in an environmental impact
statement (EIS). This requirement shall be waived when an EIS is not required. This
analysis shall demonstrate that the development will remain fully functional for its
intended use after a six (6) inch rise in sea level. In the event that the applicant
cannot meet this requirement, a list shall be provided by the applicant of the changes
necessary in order for the development to meet the standard." This requirement has
been met by the applicant in that the dock, boardwalk, and structure are all high
enough that a 6 inch rise in sea level will not affect the structures or the intended use
of the property.
VI. MAJOR ISSUES:
Stormwater Management:
In any project, Stormwater Management has two basic concerns, water quality
retention and peak flow (quantity) attenuation. In other words, we require the
"first flush" of stormwater runoff to be retained or detained on site long enough to
settle out or filter out a substantial portion (exact percentage not determined by
code) of the pollutants picked up by the runoff from a storm, and we try to make
EAC Meeting
Page 8 of 12
sure that the runoff rate is slowed enough so as not to adversely impact
neighboring or downstream properties.
Engineering Review Department has determined that the components and location
of this project do not warrant any extraordinary measures when dealing with water
stormwater runoff quality and quantity on this site.
Environmental:
Site Description:
The native vegetation on site in the area of the proposed construction was provided
in the EIS as follows:
612- Mangrove Forest—This area includes 2.23 acres (52% of site). This consists of
the jurisdictional on-site wetlands in the eastern portion of the property. The wetland
area consists of a dominant canopy of red mangrove (Rhyzophora mangle), black
mangrove (Avicennia germinans), and occasional white mangrove (Laguncularia
racemosa). Subcanopy species of Exotic Brazilian pepper (Schinus terebinthifolius)
and groundcover species sea oxeye daisy(Borrichia frutescens) is a rare abundance in
this area.
The upland vegetative communities include coastal scrub (0.72 acres), cabbage palm
hammock(0.86 acres), and beach dune (0.51 acres).
110 Beach dune-This area includes 0.51 acres (12% of site). There are no canopy size
trees in this area. Subcanopy species include an occasional Grey Knickerbeam
(Caesalpinia bonduc) and sea grape (Cocoloba uvifera). Groundcover species
commonly include sea oats (Uniola paniculata), sand spurs (Cenchrus spp.), and rare
in abundance is railroad vine (Ipomoea pes-caprae).
322- Coastal Scrub - This area includes 0.72 acres (17% of site). The only subcanopy
in this area includes an occasional coin vine (Dalbergia ecastophyllum). Groundcover
species include occasionally of tomatillo (Physalis spp.), dog fennel (Eupatorium
capillifolium), and periwinkle (Vinca spp.). Beggar tick ( Bidens spp.) and railroad
vine are rare in abundance.
428: Cabbage palm — This area includes 0.86 acres (20% of site). This upland area
consists of a dominant canopy of cabbage palms (Sabal palmetto) and commonly of
sea grape and rare occurrence of strangler fig (Ficus aurea). Subcanopy species
occasionally exists in this area include coin vine, myrsine (Myrsine guianensis),
buckthorn (Bumelia spp.), stopper (Eugenia spp.), and grey knickerbeam. Rare
abundance of Brazilian pepper exists. Groundcover species that are dominant in the
areas include white indigo berry (Randia aculeate), St. Augustine grass (Stenotaphrum
secudatum), and wild coffee(Psychotria spp.)
EAC Meeting
Page 9 of 12
Wetlands:
Jurisdictional on site wetlands (approximately 2.23 acres within the property
boundary) consist of mangrove forest in the eastern portion of the property. No
additional impact to the on site wetlands are proposed as a result of this project.
Only mangrove trimming will occur, to facilitate the continued safe passage along
the dock and boardwalk. Mangrove trimming will require DEP Permits and to be
trimmed in accordance to DEP rules and regulations for mangrove trimming.
Preservation Requirements/Site Alteration:
The proposed project will retain 95% (4.12 acres) of on-site native vegetation — all
vegetation outside the building footprint, boardwalk, and drain filed. Minimum
requirement for preservation is 10% or 0.43 acres and placed under Collier County
Conservation Easement. The remaining 3.43 acres that is retained will be placed
under a Conservation Easement with Rookery Bay. Some exotic vegetation has also
been removed from the site, and any remaining exotics will be removed. In addition,
native plantings will be used to restore the area where the Australian Pines have been
removed.
Proposed impacts on native vegetation for the structure are located in the Cabbage
P P g g
Palm Hammock area. The proposed project plans to replace any native vegetation
lost through construction activities by re-planting and supplementing with native
vegetation. Replanting/Restoration plan will be received and approved prior to next
development order approval.
Listed Species:
A transect survey was performed to determine the presence of listed species. There
are one listed species observed on the subject property during the survey.
Approximately 11 gopher tortoise burrows were observed on site. Survey for wading
birds was also performed.
Recently a collared panther(FP 147) was documented on Keewaydin Island on three
separate occasions. According to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation
Commission staff, the panther is not expected to stay out on the island very long or
take up permanent residence. Lack of forage and limited room to move around in
will most likely discourage the panther from utilizing this area.
Management plan is provided as part of the EIS (exhibit 4) and will be updated as
needed and be included as part of the construction plan approval process.

IV. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Naples Reserve RPUD shall be a residential development consisting of a
mixture of single-family and multi-family residences. This PUDZ-A proposes to
add 612 units to the existing PUD known as Naples Reserve Golf Club for a
maximum of 1154 residential dwelling units (including attached and detached
single-family villas). The gross project density, therefore, shall be a maximum of
1.68 dwelling units per acre. The commercial acreage and 18 holes of the 36 hole
golf course has been eliminated.
The subject property was previously approved on June 8, 1999 for Ordinance No.
99-42 as Naples Reserve Golf Club PUD. The subject property contained 688
acres, with 3.50 acres for commercial use and 552 residential units at a density of
1.50 units per acres and a 36 hole golf course. Two extensions for the previously
approved PUD were granted:
AR- 5107
Robert Duane of Hole Montes requesting a zoning letter addressing two issues:
the extension of the PUD zoning for Naples Reserve that sunsets the 8th of June
2004 which is 5 years from the date of approval; and, whether density blending
can be implemented for Naples Reserve during the platting or SDP process as
opposed to rezoning the property.
AR- 5752
Robert Duane of Hole Montes, Inc., representing Naples Reserve Golf Club, Inc.,
in requesting a PUD zoning extension for PUD-99-03, Naples Reserve Golf
Club. This request is for two 2-year extensions to be granted simultaneously from
June 8th, 2004 the date of the PUD expiration to June 8th, 2008.
Revised title (4/22/04) Petition: PUDEX -2004-AR-5752. (KD) Naples Reserve
Golf Club, Inc., represented by Robert Duane, A.I.C.P., of Hole Montes, Inc.,
requesting 2 two-year extensions of the Naples Reserve Golf Club PUD pursuant
to LDC Section 2.7.3.4.6. The property is located 1.3±miles east of County Road
951 and approximately one mile north of US Highway 41, in Section 1, Township
51 South, Range 26 East, Collier County, Florida, consisting of 688± acres.
SDP 2000-025, Naples Reserve Golf Club was approved on December 5, 2000
with entrance road, extension of utilities along the entrance road and turn lanes on
US-41 constructed. The SDP is determined to be vested by the Engineering
Services Department.

V. GROWTH MANAGEMENT PLAN CONSISTENCY:
Future Land Use Element:
The subject project straddles two land-use designations; 310.94+ acres is
designated Urban (Urban-Mixed Use District, Residential Fringe Subdistrict) and
the remaining 377.16±acres is designated Agricultural/Rural (Rural Fringe Mixed
Use District, Receiving Lands), as identified on the Future Land Use Map of the
Growth Management Plan. Relevant to this petition, the Urban Residential Fringe
Subdistrict permits residential development at a maximum density of 1.5 DU/A or
up to 2.5 DU/A via the transfer of up to 1 DU/A from lands designated as Rural
Fringe Mixed Use District, Sending. The base residential density allowable for
designated Receiving Lands is one unit per five gross acres, with a maximum
density of one unit per gross acre achievable through the Transfer of Development
Rights (TDR)process.
This petition relies on multiple provisions in the Future Land Use Element to
achieve consistency. The portion of the project located within the Urban (Urban-
Mixed Use District, Residential Fringe Subdistrict) designated area is eligible for
a density of 2.5 DU/A or 777.35 DUs and the portion of the project located within
the Agricultural/Rural designation is eligible for a density of 1 DU/A or 377.16
DUs. (TDRs from lands designated Sending are required in order to achieve these
maximum densities.)
The requested project density of 1.77 DU/A or 1,154 DUs may be achieved as
calculated above and distributed throughout the project acreage via the Density
Blending provision in the FLUE.
This project straddles the Urban Mixed Use and Rural Fringe Mixed Use District,
Receiving Lands. As such the "Density Blending" provision of the GMP intended
to encourage unified plans of development and to preserve wetlands, wildlife
habitat, and other natural features that exist within properties that or that straddle
Receiving and Neutral Lands within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District.
A portion of this project is located within the Urban Residential Fringe
Subdistrict. As such is to provide transitional densities between the Urban
Designated Area and the Agricultural/Rural Area and may be allowed a maximum
residential density of 1.5 units per gross acre.
The project is required to provide a Transfer of Development Rights. The primary
purpose of the TDR process within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District is to
establish an equitable method of protecting and conserving the most valuable
environmental lands, including large connected wetland systems and significant
areas of habitat for listed species, while allowing property owners of such lands to
EAC Meeting
Page 4 of 12
recoup lost value and development potential through an economically viable
process of transferring such rights to other more suitable lands. Within the Rural
Fringe Mixed Use District, residential density may be transferred from lands
designated as Sending Lands to lands designated as Receiving Lands on the �
Future Land Use Map. The base residential density allowable for designated �
Receiving Lands is one (1) unit per five (5) gross acres (0.2 dwelling units per
acre). The maximum density achievable in Receiving Lands through the TDR
process is one (1) dwelling unit per acre. This maximum density is exclusive of
the Density Blending provisions. Dwelling units may only be transferred into
Receiving Lands in whole unit increments (fractional transfers are prohibited).
The petitioner is not requesting additional density above the maximum density
allowed; 1DU/A.
The PUD Document limits the maximum lot size for single-family detached
dwelling units to 1 acre.
The majority of the project development is within the Receiving area, which has
been previously cleared. The native vegetation is located within the urban portion
of the project which is proposed for preservation, as identified in the PUD
.-� Document and Master Plan. Comprehensive Planning staff defers to
Environmental Services staff for project consistency with this provision.
The total project is 688 ± acres; 310.94± acres within the Urban Residential
Fringe Subdistrict and 377.16+ acres within the Agricultural/Rural, RMFUD
District, Receiving Lands.
The minimum open space requirement of 70% for the portion of the project
located within the RFMUD, Receiving Lands is identified in the PUD Document
and Master Plan. Specific compliance will be determined during Plat and SDP
review.
Refer to the "Analysis of Density Blending Provision" above. (The entire project
shall meet the applicable preservation standards of the Rural Fringe Mixed Use
District. These preservation requirements shall be calculated upon and apply to
the total project area.) Comprehensive Planning staff defers to Environmental
Services staff for project consistency with CCME Policies.
Based upon the above analysis, staff concludes that the proposed uses and density
may be deemed consistent with the Future Land Use Element. Additionally, text
revisions to the PUD document are needed, as noted above.

Conservation & Coastal Management Element:
Objective 2.2 of the Conservation and Coastal Management Element of the
Growth Management Plan states "All canals, rivers, and flow ways discharging
into estuaries shall meet all applicable federal, state, or local water quality
standards".
To accomplish that, policy 2.2.2 states "In order to limit the specific and
cumulative impacts of stormwater runoff, stormwater systems should be designed
in such a way that discharged water does not degrade receiving waters and an
attempt is made to enhance the timing, quantity, and quality of fresh water
(discharge) to the estuarine system".
This project is consistent with the objectives of policy 2.2.2 in that it attempts to
mimic or enhance the quality and quantity of water leaving the site by utilizing
interconnected dry detention area(s), lake(s) and a wetland(s) to provide water
quality retention and peak flow attenuation during storm events.
Pursuant to Objective 2.4 and Policies 2.4.1, a copy of the Environmental Impact
Statement will be provided to staff and the Rookery Bay National Estuarine
Research Reserve for their review.
In accordance with Objective 6.4 and Policy 6.5.2, a 300 foot buffer (water
management lake) is provided along the north side of the property adjacent to the
Natural Reservation (Belle Meade NRPA), to buffer the Natural Reservation from
more intensive open space uses.
In accordance with Policy 6.1.1, 25 % of the existing native vegetation shall be
retained on-site and set aside as preserve areas with conservation easements
prohibiting further development. On-site preserves are adjacent to each other and
to adjoining off-site preserves.
Habitat management and exotic vegetation removal/maintenance plans are
required at the time of Site Development Plan/Construction Plan submittal.
Preserve areas shall be required to be maintained free of Category I invasive
exotic plants, as defined by the Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council.
Littoral shelf planting areas within wet detention ponds shall be required at the
time of Site Development Plan/Construction Plan submittal, and will be required
to meet the minimum planting area requirement in Policy 6.1.7.
The requirement for an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) pursuant to Policy
6.1.8 has been satisfied.
EAC Meeting
Page 6 of 12
Jurisdictional wetlands have been identified as required in Policies 6.2.1 and
6.2.2. Pursuant to Policy 6.2.4, the .County shall require appropriate agency
permits prior to the issuance of a final local development order permitting site
improvements (Site Development Plan/Construction Plans). SFWMD and
USACOE permits have been issued for the site.
In accordance with Policy 6.2.6, required preservation areas are identified on the
PUD master plan. Allowable uses within the preserve areas are included in the
PUD document. Uses within preserve areas shall not include any activity
detrimental to drainage, flood control, water conservation, erosion control, or fish
and wildlife conservation and preservation.
Wildlife surveys and habitat management plans for listed species in accordance
with Policy 7.1.2 are included in the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).
Pursuant to Policy 7.1.4, all development shall comply with applicable federal and
state permitting requirements regarding listed species protection. New listed
species have been identified on site since the previous PUD and SDP were
approved. Technical assistance/approval from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) and Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FFWCC)
shall be required prior to Site Development Plan/Construction Plan amendment
approval. A copy of the EIS will be forwarded to the USFWS and FFWCC for
their review. The Biological Opinion previously issued by the USFWS is included
as part of the EIS.
VI. MAJOR ISSUES:
Stormwater Management:
Naples Reserve sits in the "US 41 Outfall Swale No. 1 Basin". The site is
currently being used for Agricultural purposes and has a system of swales and
ditches for drainage. Sheetflow in the area is generally north to south and
ultimately flows to Rookery Bay via the Tamiami Canal, which flows west into
Henderson Creek.
Section 8.06.03 0.2. of the Collier County Land Development Code states "The
surface water management aspects of any petition, that is or will be reviewed and
permitted by South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), are exempt
from review by the EAC." County Staff could not find reference to a SFWMD
permit for this site on the SFWMD website, but due to the presence of wetlands
on site, this petition will be reviewed by SFWMD.
This will be a typical Residential / Golf Course development employing
interconnected lakes and preserves to achieve water quality retention and peak
EAC Meeting

flow attenuation prior to discharge to the south at the southwest corner of the site.
The offsite discharge will flow along the west property line of Walnut Lakes and
into the US 41 roadside (Tamiami) canal.
Environmental:
Site Description:
The majority of the site was previously cleared and utilized for agricultural
purposes. Site Development Plan No. SDP-2000-025 authorized clearing for
lakes, residential areas, and other infrastructure improvements. Native forested
areas remain in established preserves and in an un-cleared tract in the SW portion
of the property. Immediately NE and contiguous to the PUD, in the Belle Meade
NRPA, is a 320 acre off-site mitigation parcel previously used by the developer as
mitigation for impacts to wetlands and listed species on-site.
Wetlands:
The project site has received permits and permit extensions from the South
Florida Water Management District (Permit #11-00090-S) and the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers (Permit #199900619 IP-SB). All wetlands designated for
impact were previously cleared and filled. A total of 47.03 acres of low quality
wetlands were impacted.
According to the USACOE permit for the project, of the 74.61 acres proposed for
preservation, 55.67 acres are to be enhanced by removal of exotic vegetation and
restoration of the historic wetland condition. Also, along the fringes of the
preserves, an additional 10.70 acres of cypress marsh and wading bird foraging
habitat will be created in areas previously cleared for agricultural purposes, and
5.24 acres of pine and palmetto uplands will be preserved and enhanced by
removing exotics. The down stream portions of the water management lakes
adjacent to the preserves are to be enhanced by planting native wetland vegetation
water ward to a depth of 1.5 feet below control elevation. Additionally, 320 acres
of off-site wetlands and uplands in Section 31 will be enhanced and/or restored,
and then deeded to the State of Florida (FDEP). Details of the on and off site
mitigation plans are included in the USACOE permit and EIS. Preserves must me
maintained free of exotics and not be allowed to retain a percentage of exotics as
stated in the EIS.
Preservation Requirements:
Pre-development indigenous native vegetation on-site totaled 164.54 acres. At the
time the PUD and SDP were approved, twenty-five percent of the existing native
vegetation had to be retained on-site (164.54 acres x .25 = 41.1 acres). Since the
PUD and SDP were both previously approved and vegetation cleared in
EAC Meeting
Page 8 of 12
accordance with the approved SDP, the native vegetation preservation
requirement does not change. SDP 2000-025 was determined to be vested by the
Engineering Services Department. All preserves and the remaining un-cleared
portion of the property are all located in the Urban Residential Fringe Subdistrict
portion of the PUD.
Currently the subject property contains 75.31 acres of native habitat. The PUD
proposes to preserve 63.91 acres of existing native habitat and restore an
additional 10.70 acres of disturbed habitat into cypress marsh and wading bird
foraging habitat, adjacent to the preserves. Native habitats on-site include hydric
and non-hydric pine, pine-cypress, cypress and pine-palmetto.
The preserves on site have been designed to create large contiguous tracts.
Although the entrance road bisects the two preserves, the road was located to
avoid wetland impacts and to follow the approximate location of the existing
agricultural berm and ditch. Preserves on site are contiguous to off site preserves
within Winding Cypress PUD and Walnut lakes PUD. Immediately south west
and contiguous to the project's on-site preserves, is land owned by the State of
Florida (FDEP).
Listed Species:
The first listed species survey was conducted during the months of August 1998,
and again in January and February of 1999. The most recent updated five day
survey was conducted during the months of November and December of 2005.
The primary function of the survey was to inspect the mature slash pine trees for
potential red-cockaded woodpecker (RCW) cavity trees, and to obtain a general
assessment of habitat conditions and sighting of listed species.
Ten listed species were observed during the survey update, American alligator
(Alligator mississippiensis), great egret (Casmerodius albus), little blue heron
(Egretta caerulea), snowy egret (Egretta thula), tricolored heron (Egretta tricolor),
white ibis (Eudocimus albus), Florida sandhill crane (Grus canadensis pratensis),
southern bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), wood stork (Mycteria americana)
and Everglades snail kite (Rostrhamus sociabilis plumbeus).
No red-cockaded woodpecker (RCW) cavity trees or RCW activity was observed
during any of the survey events. Recent listed species surveys on the adjacent
property (Winding Cypress PUD) also did not discover any RCW activity. Red-
cockaded woodpeckers are known to occur in areas north and east of the project
site in the Belle Meade NRPA.
One immature bald eagle has been observed on several occasions flying over the
south western edge of the property, and once perched in a pine tree near the
EAC Meeting
Page 9 of 12
northern end of the preserve. The agricultural ditches in this area may be
providing foraging opportunities for this species since the eagle has been observed
making low flights along the ditches.
On several occasions, there were two, sometimes three, sand hill cranes observed
within the farm fields. When observed flying, they typically flew to the east or
from the east.
There have been one or two snail kites observed regularly along the eastern edge
of the farm field, and have been seen landing on the oak trees planted along
Greenway Road. To the east of the property are large extensive abandoned and
active farm fields with numerous ditches, which the snail kites may be utilizing.
Many of the perimeter ditches retain water for six to nine months of the year,
offering foraging opportunities for wading birds. When the fields are active, they
are either being pump dry or being filled to maintain a moisture regime
throughout the fields. This practice provides year-round foraging habitat for
wading birds. Typically, during the survey, woodstorks, white ibis, great egret,
snowy egret, and little blue heron were observed somewhere along the ditches.
Occasionally, following a rain event, the farm fields have dozens of wading birds
foraging in large flocks.
Two alligators have been observed within the borrow pond and ditches on several
occasions during and before the survey. It is likely that several other alligators are
also located within the agricultural ditches, but were not observed.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service made a determination that the proposed
development impacted Florida panther habitat. For compensation, 320 acres
located contiguous to the north eastern corner of the property will be placed in a
conservation easement, enhanced and deeded over to the State of Florida. The
south east portion of the off-site mitigation parcel contains an abandoned farm
field which will be restored by creating open depressional areas within the center
of the old farm field and planting the area with indigenous vegetation to mimic a
cypress wet prairie ecosystem. A location map, FLUCFCS map, and the
mitigation and maintenance plan for the off-site mitigation parcel is included in
the EIS.

Petition Name: North Belle Meade Mine
Applicant/Developer: Florida Rock Industries
Engineering Consultant: Hole Montes, Inc.
II. LOCATION:
This project consists of 998.9 acres, more or less, sitting in Sections 21, 27, and
28 of Township 49, South, Range 27 East, Collier County, Florida, more
particularly south of Golden Gate Estates and the existing Warren Brothers PUD
(the APAC Pit), in the North Belle Meade Rural Fringe Receiving Lands north of
I-75.
III. DESCRIPTION OF SURROUNDING PROPERTIES:
This project is located in the North Belle Meade Area, south of the existing
subdivision called North Golden Gate Estates, North of I-75, east of the County's
landfill and west of Everglades Boulevard. The petitioner owns 1416 (+/-) acres
of which 417 (+/-) acres of sending lands, located in Section 27, are not included
in this application.

IV. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project is being presented for the information of the EAC as per Section
8.06.03.J of the LDC which states that the EAC shall "Participate in the review
and recommendation process for excavations over 500,000 cubic yards". It is
Staff's understanding that the EAC's comments will not be forwarded to the BCC
and that this item will be sent to the BCC's Consent Agenda for approval without
discussion.
The petitioner proposes a Commercial Rock and Fill Mine. There will be three
separate excavations (204 ac, 451 ac, and 98 ac)totaling approximately 753 acres.
The excavations will avoid existing unoccupied outparcels. The excavations are
proposed to go to a depth of approximately 70 ft from existing grade which will
put the bottoms of the proposed excavations at approximately el. -59 NGVD.
Staff is not familiar with subsurface conditions in this area. The petitioner has
supplied numerous core boring reports for the area and the petitioner's engineer
has stated that the excavation will not adversely affect ground water levels, water
quality and hydroperiod.
Access to the property will initially be along a haul road constructed from the
south and going up to Section 28. The haul road is consistent with the approved
North Belle Meade Overlay (NBMO)of the Future Land Use Element(FLUE) of
the Collier County Growth Management Plan. The haul road is proposed based
on action taken by the BCC on 28 Jun 2005 as part of the Wilson Boulevard
Corridor Study.
At that time,the BCC recognized that a haul road was an interim solution for
access to the subject and other properties and that it would ultimately become a
future public roadway corridor extension of Wilson Boulevard with a connection
to Landfill/Blackburn Road. In recognition of this fact, in 2006 the BCC included
the extension of Wilson Blvd. and the Landfill/Blackburn Road in the 2030 Long
Range Transportation Financially Feasible Plan. The Developer Contribution
Agreement(DCA)further contemplates that the Wilson Blvd. and the Blackburn
Road extensions be moved up to the next scheduled Capital Improvement
Element, slated for adoption, after the DCA goes into effect for the advance right-
of-way acquisition of Wilson Blvd. and Landfill/Blackburn Roads.
Ultimately, the access proposed for both Wilson Blvd. and the Landfill/Blackburn
Road will be a public roadway with up to 120-foot right-of—way to accommodate
a six or four lane urban arterial (to be determined) or collector roadway. The
EAC Meeting
Page 3 of 5 •
cross-sections for the haul road are contained in Exhibit"F" of the DCA
Agreement and also in the Excavation Plan Set, Tab#17, Sheet 9. Access to the
subject property is through extension of Wilson Boulevard beginning from lands
owned by Florida Rock in Sections 21 and 28 and depicted on Exhibit"D" of the
DCA. However, the haul road will terminate at the southern portion of Section 28
for this excavation permit. Access then will continue along the western edge of
the I-75 right-of-way, and then to an extension of Landfill/Blackburn Road, also
known as White Lake Blvd., which gains its access onto Collier Blvd via Utilities
Drive (see Exhibit E of the DCA Agreement). Right-of-way acquisition
requirements are more specifically defined in the DCA and all are the
responsibility of Collier County outside the boundaries of the subject property.
Pursuant to Policy 3.3 Transportation Element of the GMP the County will
acquire the off-site right-of-way. Florida Rock, Inc. will advance the County
funds for the acquisition of said right-of-way and will be paid back with a
combination of cash and impact fee credits for this expenditure as further outlined
in the attached DCA. In summary, Florida Rock will reserve up to a 120-foot
right-of-way through its Sections 21 and 28 in exchange for impact fee credits.
The extension of Wilson Blvd. and the Landfill/Blackburn Road will enable the
i-. County to initiate improved access to a local road network in the NBMO to
accommodate future growth in a planned manner. This will also provide an
alternative access from Eastern Golden Gate Estates to Collier Boulevard.
V. GROWTH MANAGEMENT PLAN CONSISTENCY:
Future Land Use Element:
The subject property is located in the Rural Fringe Mixed Use Subdistrict and is
further governed by the provisions of the North Belle Meade Overlay ("NBMO")
and approximately 999 acres of this site are designated as Receiving Lands and
417 acres are Sending Lands that are not part of this request as noted. The subject
property's Receiving Lands allow excavation/earthmining and related processing
("Mining Uses") as a permitted land use. According to the NBMO,the Mining
Uses can proceed without a Conditional Use at the present time based on actions
that have been taken to date by Florida Rock, Inc. and the BCC. Attachment"C"
of this application provides a further description of how the subject property is
consistent with the GMP, which includes a Future Land Use Map with the subject
property overlaid, Tab#8 to this application. (See also attached DCA, Tab #14,
outlining further compliance with the GMP)
EAC Meeting
Page 4 of 5
VI. MAJOR ISSUES:
Stormwater Management:
From the experience of the Engineering Review Department with every other
excavation in Collier County, post-development runoff from this project will not
exceed pre-development runoff.
During the active excavation, there may be some dewatering, but that water is
generally kept on site in bermed confinement areas. Our experience is that noise
and dust will be the most important issues, even if the excavation is properly
done. Since the excavation is well away from civilization, the noise problem will
be minimized.
Environmental:
The only Environmental Review done on this project by the CDES Environmental
Review Department was to confirm that the excavation portions of this site are in
the Rural Fringe Receiving Areas.

6.05.00 Water Management Systems and Drainage Improvement Standards
6.05.01 Stormwater Management System g y em Requlrements
A complete stormwater management system shall be provided for all areas within
the subdivision or development, including lots, streets, and alleys.
A. The system design shall meet the applicable provisions of the current
County codes and ordinances, SFWMD rules and regulations pursuant to
Florida Statutes, and the Florida Administrative Code, and any other
affected state and federal agencies' rules and regulations in effect at the
time of preliminary subdivision plat submission.
B. Where stormwater runoff from outside the subdivision or development
historically passes on, over, or through areas of the subdivision or
development, such runoff shall be included in the stormwater system
design. The system shall be designed for long life, low cost maintenance
by normal methods and provide for optimal on-site detention of
stormwater runoff and groundwater recharge in accordance with
applicable County and SFWMD regulations.
C. Any structure with an outside wall which is closer than ten (10) feet from
a side property line shall install properly sized (minimum twenty-four (24)-
square inch cross-section) gutters and downspouts to direct stormwater
away from neighboring properties and toward front and/or rear swales or
retention/detention areas.
D. In-ground percolation type retention systems such as rock trenches,
exfiltration trenches or beds, infiltrator type systems, gallery type systems,
etc., shall not be used to achieve water quality retention for residential
subdivisions. Rear yard open retention systems shall likewise not be
designed to achieve water quality retention on projects submitted after
January 1, 2002. All retention systems for projects designed after January
1, 2002, shall be on common property owned and maintained by a
homeowners' association or similar entity.
E. Any canal which forms a part of the public water management system
111
shall be dedicated for care and maintenance per the requirements of the
governmental agency which has jurisdiction. Canals located entirely
within the subdivision and which do not form a part of the public water
management system shall be dedicated to the public, without the
responsibility for maintenance, as a drainage easement. A maintenance
easement, of a size acceptable to the County Manager or designee or
other governmental agency with maintenance responsibility, shall be
provided adjacent to the established drainage easement, or the drainage
easement created must be of a size suitable for the proposed canal and
its maintenance.
F. Stormwater Retention / Detention Design for Single-Family Dwelling
Units.

i
CHANGE: Requires residential new construction to provide minimal pretreatment of
stormwater runoff prior to discharge into canals serving the Gulf of Mexico.
REASON: No standards are currently defined; runoff is simply delivered over the 1
seawall without regard to water quality control. Infiltration trenches can be expected to
remove up to 90% of sediments, metals, coliform bacteria and other organic matter, as
well as up to 60% of phosphorus and nitrogen in the runoff. This excellence of
pretreatment is achieved for very little effort. A secondary benefit is the contribution to
structural stability and longevity of new and existing seawalls by improving equalization
of stress and reducing potential for failure.
0 FISCAL & OPERATIONAL IMPACTS: Construction costs include clearing,
excavation of trench, placement of filter fabric and stone and is virtually maintenance
free. This compares favorably to current single family site preparation and development
of clearing, grading, installation of irrigation and sod.
