***** Mr. Cardillo arrived (9:00 A.M. ) *****
ITEM: Discussion of Administrative Approvals - Acting
Community Development Administrator 011iff
COMMENTS: Acting Community Development Administrator 011iff
stated that Staff is presently functioning with two
ordinances which are old and weak, and do not ade-
quately address items relating to the environmental
review process. He advised that Staff is in the
process of working toward guidelines which will
require that developments meet with the necessary
environmental protective measures. He noted that
Staff has been in the position of trying to nego-
tiate issues of which they do not have the legal
ability to hold developers to, i .e. black and white
environmental issues. He stated that from a long
term perspective, it has been determined that it is
much more important for Staff to concentrate on
developing the Comprehensive Plan, and then have
the ordinances in place so that the review is based
on some legislation. He indicated that the ordi-
nances will enable the developers to know what to
expect.
Mr . 011iff stated that there is a short term amount
of work that will have to suffer , if Staff is to
undertake the writing of the ordinances. He indi-
cated that Staff will loose a certain amount of
negotiating time that is available to them now,
adding that during the development reviews they
will be concentrating on items which are regulated
by ordinances of today. He advised that the
stipulations that will be presented to the EAC will
be those that relate to the present ordinances. He
stated that the EAC will have to step in and take a
Page 3
.-� ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL OCTOBER 19 , 1988
stronger role during the interim period, and
possibly require additional stipulations for the
proposed developments.
Mr . 011iff indicated that the role of the EAC
regarding development reviews will be much more
important than it has been, noting that Staff has
no problem with bringing administrative items
before the Council for review, since Staff time
will be spent on developing new environmental ordi-
nances which will benefit the County in the future.
Dr . Benedict stated that it has been approximately
10 years since the ordinances have been adopted,
adding that the sooner the procedures and policies
can be developed into legislative forms, the better
it will be for the EAC. He noted that the only
format of environmental "regulation" has been
through the rezone process, with the EAC making
recommendations, for the good of the environment,
to the Board of County Commissioners, and they
generally went along with that recommendation. He
stated that he feels that the Staff stipulations
are merely recommendations that the EAC either
endorses or modifies, and it is the EAC ' s role in
the rezone process that gives those stipulations
some sort of a basis. He noted that it will be
very positive when the stipulations are replaced
with standards, adding that he would like to see
the EAC become more involved, rather than less
involved.
Dr . Benedict indicated that during the past year ,
there was a presentation and discussions regarding
the Development Services Department review. He
noted that the EAC was very vocal in questioning
concerns as to how this will be set up, and they
made suggestions as to how this could be more
effectively implemented. He questioned whether Mr .
011iff could provide an update regarding the format
of the review procedure?
Mr . 011iff replied that approximately 30-45 addi-
tional days are required to finalize the approach
Staff proposes to take relating to the reviews . He
advised that a workshop will be held to discuss the
new review system.
Mr . Cardillo indicated that the four Petitions
Administratively Approved by ERM which appear on
Page 4
ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL OCTOBER 19 , 1988
today' s agenda are much more exceptional than other
Petitions in the past. He questioned whether this
is a result of lack of Staff?
Environmental Science and Pollution Control
Director Lorenz advised that some of the work was
previously provided by Staff , but there is now a
need to divert manpower to the long term in deve-
loping criteria and adopt standards. He indicated
that Staff will have less time for Petition review,
and they will be forwarded to the EAC. He noted
that in the future, Staff will not be able to pro-
vide the frontend work, i .e. the leg work to go to
the site, and providing the Staff Reports.
Dr . Benedict noted that Staff has always inspected
the sites and talked with developers to express the
concerns of the EAC, but they were not heavily
involved with the regulatory aspect.
Mr . Cardillo indicated that he is concerned that
the EAC will not be receiving the quality of
reporting which they currently receive. He noted
that he believes the ordinance review process
should be a limited endeavor with less people,
rather than orverturning the entire review process.
He stated that in the "ancient" days of the EAC,
the review process was a mess, due to the lack of
good reporting. He added that the Council
inspected each site, and there was a problem in
getting people to serve on the Council.
Mr . 011iff stated if he does not make some changes
now, the County will not have the required environ-
mental ordinances in effect five years from now.
He indicated that he has to compromise someplace in
order to free up Staff time to write the ordinan-
ces.
Dr . Benedict stated that his major concern is the
Resource Management position that was vacated when
Dr . Proffitt left? He noted that he believes a
person of this caliber should be on staff to per-
form the long range work relating to the Comp Plan,
etc.
Mr . 011iff advised that Bill Lorenz is administra-
tively taking control of the vacated position,
which has been changed to Chief Environmental
Page 5
ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL OCTOBER 19, 1988
Specialist. He noted that there is no better per-
son on Staff that can devote time to administration
and the understanding of how manhours work, than
Mr . Lorenz .
Mr . 011iff stated that hopefully, from a long range
perspective, an ordinance will be adopted and Staff
will have legislative legs to stand on, adding that
he hopes the EAC will work with Staff.
***
A discussion took place regarding the Petitions
Administratively approved by ERM, that appear on
today' s agenda , specifically, that they appear to
be more involved than administrative approvals in
the past, and two of the Petitions have EIS ' s.
Mr . Robert Lockhart of Wilson, Miller , Barton, Soll
& Peek, Inc. suggested that possibly the Council
may want to consider the option of handling admi-
nistratively approved petitions in the same manner
that the Board of County Commissioners handles con-
sent agenda items, and if there is further
discussion or information desired on any particular
petition, it could be placed on the regular agenda
and brought to
g public hearing.
MOTION: Made by Dr. Benedict that the Petitions
Administratively Approved By ERM: PU-88-17-C,
PU-88-20C, PU-88-16C, and R-87-43C be heard at the
next EAC Meeting, under Public Hearings. Seconded
by Ms. Kurgis. Carried 3/1 (Dr. Snyder opposed) .
***
PETITION NO: R-88-21C
FILED BY/FOR: Cliff Repperger of Avalon Engineering, Inc. ,
representing Collier Development Corporation
REQUESTING: A zoning change from A-2 to PUD for a
Commercial Activity Center ( "Sand Ridge" )
REPRESENTED BY: Mr . Cliff Repperger
COMMENTS: Mr . Cliff Repperger of Avalon Engineering,
Inc. advised that subject property consists of
32 acres of land, and is located at Immokalee
Road and U. S. 41. He indicated that subject
Page 6
^ ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL OCTOBER 19, 1988
site is proposed for a shopping center , to be
developed in three phases. He indicated that
vegetation on site consists of palmettos and
pines . He noted that the proposed plan provi-
des open space as required by ordinance, and
the natural areas to be preserved are the
larger areas that have been designed on the
site, and the buffer areas are relatively
large and will retain vegetation, where
appropriate. He advised that the new
landscaping will consist of native vegetation,
and he is in agreement with the Staff Report.
Ms . Stevens advised that most of the site sup-
ports upland habitat, and the only wet area of
the parcel is a small man-made lake adjacent
to the eastern property boundary. She noted
that the littoral areas of the lake have
become overgrown with cattails, and the exotic
Brazilian pepper has become established along
lake shore areas. She stated that the
remainder of the site is dominated by drier
habitats, the southern half of the parcel sup-
ports a pine woodlands habitat with palmetto
understory, and additional shrub layer vegeta-
tion includes rusty lyonia, wax myrtle, dog
fennel, and gallberry. She indicated that the
southwest corner of the parcel has become
infested with exotic melaleuca and Brazilian
pepper . She advised that northern areas of
the parcel are dominated by open palmetto
habitat, with pennyroyal , prickly pear cactus,
rusty lyonia and was myrtle. She stated that
a few small oaks , 3"-4" in diameter have been
noted in this area.
Ms. Stevens stated that Staff is recommending
approval of Petition R-88-21C, subject to the
following stipulations:
STIPULATIONS:
1 . Petitioner shall be subject to Ordinance 75-21
(or the tree/vegetation removal ordinance in
existence at the time of permitting) ,
requiring the acquisition of a tree removal
permit prior to any land clearing. A site
clearing plan shall be submitted to the
Natural Resources Management Department for
Page 7
r
ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL OCTOBER 19, 1988
their review and subject to approval prior to
any work on the site. This plan may be sub-
mitted in phases to coincide with the develop-
ment schedule. The site clearing plan shall
clearly depict how the final site layout
incorporates retained native vegetation to the
maximum extent possible and how roads,
buildings, lakes, parking lots, and other
facilities have been oriented to accommodate
this goal.
2. Native species shall be utilized, where
available, to the maximum extent possible in
the site landscaping design. A landscaping
plan will be submitted to the Natural
Resources Management Department and the
Community Development Division for their
review and subject to their approval. This
plan will depict the incorporation of native
species and their mix with other species, if
any. The goal of site landscaping shall be
the re-creation of native vegetation and habi-
tat characteristics lost on the site during
construction or due to past activities.
3 . All exotic plants, as defined in the County
Code, shall be removed during each phase of
construction from development areas, open
space areas, and preserve areas. Following
site development, a maintenance program shall
be implemented to prevent reinvasion of the
site by such exotic species. This plan, which
will describe control techniques and inspec-
tion intervals, shall be filed with and sub-
ject to approval by the Natural Resources
Management Department and the Community
Development Division.
4. If, during the course of site clearing, exca-
vation, or other constructional activities, an
archaeological or historical site, artifact,
or other indicator is discovered, all develop-
ment at that location shall be immediately
stopped and the Natural Resources Management
Department notified. Development will be
suspended for a sufficient length of time to
enable the Natural Resources Management
Department or a designated consultant to
assess the find and determine the proper
Page 8
i-. ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL OCTOBER 19, 1988
course of action in regard to its salvageabi-
lity. The Natural Resources Management
Department will respond to any such notifica-
tion in a timely and efficient manner so as to
provide only a minimal interruption to any
constructional activities.
5 . The petitioner shall arrange for a gopher tor-
toise survey to be completed by knowledgeable
personnel. The necessary procedures for
gopher tortoise relocation (Florida Game and
Fresh Water Fish Commission) shall be followed
in the event a gopher tortoise is found.
Ms. Stevens advised that Eric Heald performed
a gopher tortoise survey, but none were evi-
denced.
Dr . Benedict questioned where the 30% usable
open space is, as referenced on Page 9 of the
EIS?
Mr . Repperger replied that there are areas
across the back of the site, large areas bet-
ween the parking, areas which surround the out
parcels, and areas buffered away from the road
which constitute the 30%.
Dr . Benedict referred to Page 5 of the EIS,
regarding the spreader swale discharge and
restoring sheetflow northwest to the
Cocohatchee, and questioned whether this is
behind the off-site control structure? Mr .
Repperger replied affirmatively.
Mr . Cardillo mentioned that Greentree Shopping
Center is a model to the community, and is
aesthetically pleasing, and questioned whether
the subject project will be similar to
Greentree? He then made comparisons between
the Ridgeport Center and Greentree, and asked
if any precautions have been taken to preserve
the green effect?
Mr . Richard Henderlong of Collier Development
Corporation, indicated that his firm is working
on language to be incorporated within the PUD
document that will contain restrictive cove-
nants , i .e. the buildings will be set back
Page 9
ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL OCTOBER 19 , 1988
50 ' , and the parking lots and driveways will
be located up front. He stated that there is
a 15 ' buffer between the parking lots to the
front property line which will remain
undisturbed, as native vegetation. With
respect to the gas station, he advised that he
has worked with Staff, and the driveway
accesses have been cut back, thereby, inter-
nalizing them on the outparcels , which will
allow greater green space protection between
the right-of-way and the project.
Dr . Benedict noted that subject project will
not look like Greentree, since the uniqueness
of Greeentree was the 75 ' buffer which was
required for that project.
With regard to Stipulation No. 5 , Dr . Benedict
stated that since the gopher tortoise survey
was conducted by Eric Heald, he believes sub-
ject Stipulation can be deleted. Ms. Stevens
concurred.
MOTION: Made by Ms. Kurgis to recommend approval of
Petition R-88-21C, subject to the four Stan-
dard EAC Sti•ulations, as noted above.
Seconded by Dr. Snyder. Carried 4/0.
ITEM: Addenda - Discussion of the Standards for
Administrative Approvals
COMMENTS: Dr . Benedict stated that he feels that Messrs .
011iff and Lorenz ' s intentions regarding the
Comp Plan review process is moving in the
right direction, adding that he hopes the EAC
process will keep going. He indicated that
further discussions should be held,
especially on the subject of the site review
reports. He noted that there must be a way to
come to a happy medium. He stated that he
believes two directions of Staff are required:
the ordinance development, Comp Plans, etc.
which are long ranged; and the review of peti-
tions, site inspections , staff reports, etc. ,
adding that there is the need for a balance.
Ms. Kurgis stated that she feels that by the
Petitioner appearing before the EAC, they
Page 10
ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL OCTOBER 19, 1988
realize the Council ' s concerns, and they are
aware of what they are required to do.
Mr . Cardillo questioned the status of the EAC
Ordinance? Mr . Burch replied that he has
received same from the County Attorney ' s
Office, and a few minor amendments are
required. He advised that Mr . 011iff is now
reviewing the Ordinance.
There being no further business, the Environmental Advisory
Council was adjourned by Order of the Chair .

ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
STAFF REPORT FOR
EAC MEETING 11 /02/88
Petition: PU 38 170; Alan D. Reynolds, of Wilson, Miller, Barton,
Soli and Peek, Inc. , representing Harper Brothers, Inc. ;
requesting a provisional use "a" of the " I " zoning classification
for an asphalt plant and material storage.
Cgr.l�id2E5.2tigD :
The parcel is a square 7. 54 acre site located in the Naples
Commercial Park. The site is situated on the east side of
v~..\ Commercial Boulevard and between Mercantile and Progress Avenues
(R25E, T49S, S36) . The site is surrounded by I-zoned land. A
site visit was conducted on 4 October by Keith Edwards (ERM) .
The site has been disturbed in the past by the creation of a
sandy roadway in the southern portion of the lot that appears to
be an extension of Progress Avenue; other trails also criss-cross
the lot. The canopy layer consists solely of slash pine (pinus
elligttii var. densa) . The understory is dominated by melaleuca
(Mfialeucia gyinggene[via) and cabbage palm (Saba.l palmetto) with
scattered brazilian pepper (Schinus terebinthifglius) and winged
sumac (Rhug Egppallina) . The groundcover is dominated by
palmetto (Sere[loa repens) with early successional , disturbance
| ~~�
' ` species, including muscadine grape (yitis rgtundifglia) , love
vine (Cassvtha filiformis) , and assorted graminoids. As stated,
� ��
~ v~ _^...,
r ` Staff Report

there are areas of open Arzell Fine Sand.
Asphalt production produces large amounts of particulates,
accompanied by an unpleasant odor. Federal law (section 114 of
the Clean Air Act) requires that maximum particulate emissions
from asphalt plants cannot exceed 0. 04 grains per cubic foot of
air. Both Federal law and Florida statutes (F. S. 17-2. 650 (2) (c) 4)
require that visible emissions must have a density below 20%
opacity. According to the Department of Environmental Regulation
(DER) , the design of the proposed plant and emission control
features, consisting of a baghouse and stack, are the most
e-�
effective for controlling particulate emissions. To ensure
compliance, DER performs yearly stack tests, along with periodic
unannounced inspections throughout the year. The vast majority
of sulfur or nitrogen oxides produced by the asphalt production
process are absorbed into the aggregate and become part of the
asphalt. Any excess oxides are trapped within the baghouse.
The oil used in the asphalt process must also meet state and
federal guidelines. The proposed plant plans to have two oil
tanks on site, with a total capacity of 36, 000 gallons. These
tanks are to be located in an impermeable compound, as per the
state and federal guidelines. The sulfur content of the oil to
be used cannot exceed 2. n%.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES STAFF REPORT
FOR EAC MEETING 11/2/88
Petition: R-88-22C/PU-88-23C: Sutter Marcus, Inc. , representing
Charles and Brenda Scire, requesting a zoning change
from A-2 to RSF-4 for! 20 dwelling units, and
provisional use "g" of RSF-4 for cluster housing.
"BAILEY LAKE" .
Considerations:
The subject property is a 4.65 acre rectangular parcel
located on the north side of Bailey Lane (off of Airport Road) ,
near the west end of the road (R23, 1495, R25E) . Undeveloped,
agriculturally zoned land is located to the north and to the west
of the property. An undeveloped parcel with Estates zoning is
located to the east of the site. Bailey Lane abuts the southern
property boundary. The site was inspected by Andrea Stevens
(Environmental Resources Staff) on October 24, 1988.
The petitioner is requesting a rezoning of the parcel from
A--2 to RSF-4 for 20 dwelling units. In addition, the petitioner
is requesting a provisional use "g" of RSF-4 zoning for cluster
housing.
The site is an open, disturbed area, sparsely vegetated with
palmettos (Serenoa repens) , slash pines (Pinus elliottii ) , and
the exotic Brazilian pepper (Schinus terebinthifolius) . A few
large pines ( 10-inch diameters) were noted on the property,
although since the area has been disturbed, most of the pines are
regenerating, and are under 4 inches in diameter . In addition,
the site supports several cabbage palms (Sabal palmetto ) . The
groundcover consists mostly of various grasses. According to the
petition materials, the site was cleared (except for several
large pines) prior! to 1985 for a large garden and yard.
The petitioner is planning for 52% impervious cover. All
stormwater runoff will be directed toward a centralized lake.
The petitioner has indicated an interest in preserving as many of
the existing native trees on site as is feasible in the project
design.
Recommendations:
The Environmental Resources Staff recommends approval of
petition R-88-22C/PU-88-23C subject to the Four Standard
Stipulations, as adopted by the EAC on 4/1/87.

FOR EAC MEETING 11/2/88
Petition: PDA-88-9C: James E. Vensel of James E. Vensel
Associates, Inc. , representing The Deltona Corporation;
requesting a PUD Amendment to the Marco Shores PUD.
Considerations:
The petitioner is requesting approval, for several proposed
changes to the Marco Shores PUD, in particular within Unit 30 of
the development. The following is a summary of the proposed
modifications to the PUD:
1 . Initiation of Golf Course Construction (Unit 30) .
a) The petitioner will begin construction of an 18-hole golf
course and country club (already in the approved PUD) in
the northern area of the Unit. A second 18-hole golf course
will eventually be constructed in the southern part of the
Unit . The final design of the golf course may require
modification of the area.
b) A temporary road (through a proposed additional development
area, currently in agricultural use) from the golf course
to U.S. 41 will provide access for construction traffic
during golf course development. This road will coincide
with the alignment of the road through this area which has
been approved in the PUD.
c) The 18-hole golf course will primarily be used by guests of
the Marriott Hotel with some access by surrounding
residents.
2. Access to Unit 30.
a) The approved access to Unit 30 via C.R. 951 for use of the
golf course and country club will be made available on
September 1 , 1989.
b) All residential access to the project will be via U.S. 41
until September 1 , 1991 , when initial residential access
will be permitted via the approved C.R. 951 access point.
3. Elimination of Causeway Through Wetlands (Unit 27, Unit 30) .
The road connection between Unit 27 and Unit 30 (through a
wetland preserve area) will be eliminated. Access to Unit 30
from the southwest via Clubhouse Boulevard and through the
preserve, will therefore no longer be available.
Staff Report PDA-88-9C
EAC Meeting 11/2/88
00-N,
Page 2
4. Density Modifications (Unit 24, Unit 30) .
a) The number of units in Unit 30 will be reduced from 9, 110
to 7,000 dwelling units, reducing density in that unit from
5.6 to 4.3 dwelling units per acre.
b) Unit 24 has been sold by Deltona to the State of Florida
(an addition to Rookery Bay) , thereby eliminating 2,544
proposed dwelling units.
c ) These two modifications reduce the overall density of the
Marco Shores development from 5.78 to 3.60 dwelling units
per acre.
5. Land Use Change (Unit 30) .
The 9.2 acre business area in the center of the golf course
(at an arterial road intersection) will be changed to a multi-
family classification.
6. Donation of Fill (Unit 30) .
An 18.4 acre lake ( 1/2 million yards of fill ) will provide for
the total fill requirements of 4-laning C.R. 951 from Marco
Island Bridge to U.S. 41 . The lake is within the development
boundaries of Unit 30, and is presently permitted in
accordance with preliminary drainage plans of the approved
PUD. This modification will contribute to the total of fair
share contribution to roads surrounding Unit 30 and Unit 27 in
the PUD.
7. Community Development District .
The requirement for a "community development district" , as
originally agreed upon in the PUD, will be made optional .
The Florida Department of Community Affairs, the Southwest
Florida Regional Planning Council , and the Collier County Board
of County Commissioners have determined that these amendments do
not constitute a "substantial deviation" from the approved Marco
Shores PUD. Therefore, the petitioner will not be required to
submit a Development of Regional Impact (DRI ) Amendment for the
proposed modifications.
These proposed amendments to the Marco Shores PUD will not
further alter the environmental conditions of the site. In fact,
the amendments provide for additional environmental protection as
compared with the approved PUD plans. Environmental improvements
to the original plan include the elimination of a road traversing
a wetlands preserve, the donation of land to Rookery Bay, and the
reduction in overall project density.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES STAFF REPORT
FOR EAC MEETING 11/2/88
Petition: R-88-22C/PU-88-23C: Sutter Marcus, Inc. , representing
Charles and Brenda Scire, requesting a zoning change
from A-2 to RSF-4 for! 20 dwelling units, and
provisional use "g" of RSF-4 for cluster housing.
"BAILEY LAKE" .
Considerations:
The subject property is a 4.65 acre rectangular parcel
located on the north side of Bailey Lane (off of Airport Road) ,
near the west end of the road (R23, 1495, R25E) . Undeveloped,
agriculturally zoned land is located to the north and to the west
of the property. An undeveloped parcel with Estates zoning is
located to the east of the site. Bailey Lane abuts the southern
property boundary. The site was inspected by Andrea Stevens
(Environmental Resources Staff) on October 24, 1988.
The petitioner is requesting a rezoning of the parcel from
A--2 to RSF-4 for 20 dwelling units. In addition, the petitioner
is requesting a provisional use "g" of RSF-4 zoning for cluster
housing.
The site is an open, disturbed area, sparsely vegetated with
palmettos (Serenoa repens) , slash pines (Pinus elliottii ) , and
the exotic Brazilian pepper (Schinus terebinthifolius) . A few
large pines ( 10-inch diameters) were noted on the property,
although since the area has been disturbed, most of the pines are
regenerating, and are under 4 inches in diameter . In addition,
the site supports several cabbage palms (Sabal palmetto ) . The
groundcover consists mostly of various grasses. According to the
petition materials, the site was cleared (except for several
large pines) prior! to 1985 for a large garden and yard.
The petitioner is planning for 52% impervious cover. All
stormwater runoff will be directed toward a centralized lake.
The petitioner has indicated an interest in preserving as many of
the existing native trees on site as is feasible in the project
design.
Recommendations:
The Environmental Resources Staff recommends approval of
petition R-88-22C/PU-88-23C subject to the Four Standard
Stipulations, as adopted by the EAC on 4/1/87.

STAFF REPORT FOR
EAC MEETING 11/02/88
petitigrn: R-88-19C/ PDA-88-10C; Alan D. Reynolds, of Wilson,
Miller, Barton, Sc:]. l , and Peek, Inc. , representing David A.
Urich, agent for Youth Haven, Inc. ; requesting master plan and
language changes to the Youth Haven PUD (82-2) and a zoning
change from RMF-6 to PUD.
Considerations::
The area in question is a square, 9. / acre parcel located
�~e".. 1 approximately -
one-third of a mile east of County Barn Road along
the south side of Whitaker Road. The existing Youth Haven PUD is
a rectangular 14. 3 acre site, while the rezone area is adjacent
to, and on the east side of the original PUD tract. The site is
bordered to the south by the Royal Wood PUD, to the east by RMF-6
. zoned land, to the west by the existing Youth Haven PUD, and to
the north by Whitaker Road (R26E, T50S, 817) . A site inspection
was conducted on 20 October by Keith Edwards (ERM) .
The proposed amendments to the original Youth Haven PUD (82-
.
l 2) consist of changes to the master plan and to the language of
|
the PUD document. These proposed changes include the addition of
the 9. 7 acre rezone parcel , additional housing in the original
(w" . site and in the rezone area, adding the housing to the list
of permitted uses, increasing the density from 5 to 10 youth per
L �^

acre, and the addition of impact fee language.
The rezone parcel is a pine flatwood. The area has been
impacted by drainage, evidenced by the establishment of a large
number of melaleuca (Melaleuca guinguenervia) . In addition, only
a few small cypress (Taxgdium distichum) trees remain on site.
The canopy is dominated by slash pine (pinus elligttii var.
depg ) . The understory consists mostly of melaleuca, which
becomes quite thick in the middle of the lot, and the few
remaining cypress. Groundcover consists of scattered patches of �
palmetto (Serenoa repens) , Juncus spp. , yellow-eyed grass (X.yEi�
e-� spp. ) , love vine (Cassytha filifgrmis) , and poison ivy
(Toxicodendron radicans) ^
RgggTTgr:10.2tiga�:
The rezone area has been impacted apparently by a lowered
water table. This is evidenced by the heavy growth of melaleuca,
especially in the middle of the parce1 . ERM recommends that the
petitioner utilize the existing native species on site in the
landscape plan.
Considering the above stated points, ERM recommends approval
of petition R-88-19C/ PDA-88-10C subject to the four standard
stipulations as adopted by EAC on 4/1/87.
