FORM 4-REV. 10-84 PAGE In an advisory capacity to the Board of County Commissioners the Environmental Advisory Board is charged with: "review and evaluation of specific zoning and development petitions and their impact on the regulation, control , management, use or exploitation of any or all natural resources of or within Collier County" . In order to effectively discharge these responsibilities, it is essential to: 1- carefully review all documents submitted by the petitioner, 2- carry out site visits when deemed necessary, and 3- consult with Staff when necessary for questions and clarification. Recognizing that I am new to the procedure, I still find it difficult, at times, to fully and adequatelly prepare for the meetings within the existing timechedule. This is neither adequately serving the County or the petitioner. In the interest of effective and efficient Board operation and /'1 action, I present the following motion to the Board for action: If it is possible, without adversely affecting the vital work of the Staff, or presenting an additional burden on the efforts of the staff, " it is moved that the Board request that documents reach the Board two weeks in advance of the meeting at which action is to be taken" Item V.A. ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY BOARD STAFF REPORT MEETING OF MARCH 4,1998 NAME OF PETITIONER/PROJECT: Petition No.: Conditional Use Petition No.CU-97-25 Petition Name: Stirn's Social Club Applicant/Developer: Louis H.

DESCRIPTION OF SURROUNDING PROPERTIES: Surrounding properties are mostly undeveloped with the following zoning classifications: ,0"•\ ZONING DESCRIPTION N- A-MHO Undeveloped S- A-MHO Undeveloped E- A-MHO Partially Developed W- A-MHO Partially Developed IV. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The petitioner is proposing to develop a social club for nude recreation.Proposed facilities include a main residence, seven manufactured homes, approximately 400 square feet each in size, a pool and spa and passive recreation trails around two natural wetlands and manmade two acre lake. Plan of Record: Water Management: There is no water management plan of record for Stirn's Social Club. Environmental: Environmental Impact Statement for Stirn's social club, prepared by Tropical Environmental Consultants,Inc.,received by Planning Services on January 30, 1998. Threatened and Endangered, Listed Species Survey for Stin's social club, prepared by Tropical pical n Environmental Consultants, Inc.,dated January 27, 1998. V. STAFF COMMENTS: Water Management: The subject property contains wetlands and will be required to obtain a SFWMD surface water permit. The project sits within the Cypress Canal Basin. The site plan shows a structure, parking lot and a 2-acre (±) lake. The design, when done, should utilize the lake for achieving water quality retention and peak flow attenuation. Environmental: The subject property is an undeveloped twenty acre parcel situated between Rivers Road and Moulder Drive approximately one half mile south of Immokalee Road. About seventy percent of the site is covered with cabbage palm forest. The remaining areas include freshwater marsh, cypress/cabbage palm, willow head and disturbed habitats. The proposed development plan will impact about 9.26 acres of the site. Approximately 5.14 acres of Collier County/South Florida Water Management District(SFWMD) jurisdictional wetlands have been identified on the subject property. Wetland habitats on site include freshwater marsh, cypress/cabbage palm and willow head. The historic wetlands in the area have been altered by drainage works, fire and the introduction of Brazilian pepper. Historic high water levels on site are approximately 12 to 16 inches higher than presently existing levels judged by the height of old cypress knees adjacent to actively growing ones. All of the approximately 9.26 acres of proposed development will occur within the uplands. No wetland areas will be destroyed. A listed species survey was conducted during the fall (November, 1997) and early dry season (January, 1998).Wood storks(Mycteria americana)were the only listed wildlife species found on the site. These were sighted perched in the tops of the large cypress fringing the fresh water marsh. Local residents have reported that a Florida black bear (Ursus americanus floridanus) roams the site. Listed plant species identified on the subject property include golden polypody fern(Phlebodium aureum) and shoestring fern(Vittaria lineata). Both plants are common epiphytes on the cabbage palms on site. Two soil types have been identified on the project site. These include (18) Riviera Fine Sand, Limestone Substratum and(21)Boca Fine Sand. The former soil is considered hydric by the U.S. Department of Agricultural - Natural Resources Conservation Service (Soil Conservation Service).A soils unit map along with soils descriptions are included in the Environmental Impact Statement. A review of the official Historical/Archaeological Probability Maps for Collier County indicate no archaeological or historical sites to be located on the subject property. VI. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approval of Conditional Use Petition No. CU-97-25 with the following stipulations: Water Management: 1. The project will obtain a SFWMD surface water permit. Environmental: 1. Environmental permitting shall be in accordance with the state of Florida Environmental Resource Permit rules and be subject to review and approval by Current Planning Environmental Staff. Removal of exotic vegetation shall not be counted towards mitigation for impacts to Collier County jurisdictional wetlands. 1 2. An appropriate portion of native vegetation shall be retained on site as required in section 1 3.9.5.5.4.CCLDC. 3. An exotic vegetation removal, monitoring, and maintenance (exotic free) plan for the site, with emphasis on areas of retained native vegetation, shall be submitted to Current Planning Environmental Staff for review and approval prior to final site plan /construction plan approval. 4. Petitioner shall submit a topographic map for the site at the time of site development plan review. PREPARED BY: // f.- ♦ 1 , l7 FEZ .98 STA CHRZANOW KI,Pi .

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: North Collier Industrial Center is a proposed industrial subdivision with 36 lots, a wetland preserve and an upland/ Gopher tortoise preserve. Plan of Record: Water Management: North Collier Industrial Center Preliminary Subdivision Plat, signed and sealed February 12, 1998 by Geoffrey G. Purse, P.E. , Sheets 1 through 6 of 6. Environmental: North Collier Industrial Center Preliminary Subdivision Plat, received February 12, 1998 . Prepared by Geoffrey Purse, P.E. , Purse Associates, Inc. Environmental Impact Statement and attachments for North Collier Industrial Center . Prepared by Marco Espinar, Collier Environmental Consultants; dated August 1997; revised February, 1998 . V. STAFF COMMENTS: Water Management: SFWMD Permit #11-01084-S for this site was issued on April 15, 1993 and allowed to expire on April 15, 1996. The SFWMD wants to see the updated plan to determine whether it can be reviewed locally or if a SFWMD permit is required. The calculations indicate 4 . 12 acres of "wet detention. " This is usually accomplished in a lake. The drawing shows a large "water management area open space" in the north. The original SFWMD permit drawing is attached for comparison. EAB Meeting March 4, 1998 PSP-97-3(North Collier Industrial Center) Page 3 Environmental: n The subject property consists of approximately forty-two acres of land categorized as Pine Flatwoods, Cypress/ Pine Flatwoods, inland ponds, wet prairie, and xeric oak uplands . The Consultant identified 35 acres of uplands and 7 acres of wetlands o site. The PSP commits to preservation of a minimum of 2 . 5 acres of wetlands and 5 . 7 acres of uplands (a little over 19%) on site. The consultant provided the following site information: "The dominant forest types of the project site are pine flatwoods (411) , Pine/cypress (624) and Xeric oak scrub (421) . The pine flatwoods consists of approximately 26. 5 acres . The canopy consists of slash pine and melaleuca with a midstory and ground cover of palmetto, winged sumac and gallberry. Several saw palmetto island were scattered throughout the pine flatwoods area. These palmetto islands were just grouped together with pine flatwoods . Throughout the entire project site exotic plants have established themselves . Melaleuca, Brazilian pepper and Downy rosemyrtle are the majority of n exotics encountered. The pine/cypress area would be considered a jurisdictional wetland to both the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers and South Florida Water Management District. There are several other areas that would be considered jurisdictional. These include a wetland prairie area (643) and pine/wetland slough area (616) . This Threatened and Endangered Species Survey done in June/July 1996, placed an emphasis in surveying in the xeric oak scrub communities . Two separate scrub communities exist on this project site. The largest scrub community is located in the north-eastern corner of the project site. This area consists of approximately 4 . 8 acres. Evidence of a recent fire has opened some areas in the scrub. The second scrub community is located in the southeastern corner. This area is much smaller, consisting of approximately . 6 acres . " The consultant surveyed for threatened and endangered species on site and concluded that there were six active Gopher tortoise burrows. The southernmost two will be excavated and relocated into the northern preserve where the other four /'� tortoise burrows were observed. EAB Meeting March 4, 1998 PSP-97-3(North Collier Industrial Center) Page 4 Staff conducted a site visit to verify the number of Gopher n tortoise burrows. Approximately a dozen burrows were observed in the larger northern scrub. The increase in numbers may be a reflection of additional new burrows since summer of 1996. Due to this discrepancy, a new Gopher tortoise survey will be required prior to final plat/plans approval. VI. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approval of PSP-97-6 "North Collier Industrial Center" with the following stipulations: WATER MANAGEMENT: 1 . That the petitioner or his engineer submit a set of plans and calculations to the SFWMD for their assessment of his need to obtain a SFWMD surface water management permit. 2 . That the petitioner' s engineer submit a more detailed drainage plan during the subdivision review process . ENVIRONMENTAL: 1. A new Gopher tortoise survey (recent within six months) and relocation/management plan shall be submitted to Current Planning Environmental Staff for review and approval . A copy of the approved plan language shall be included on the final Construction Plans . 2 . Prior to the pre-construction meeting for the Final Plat/Construction Plans, the petitioner shall submit a copy of the Florida Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission Gopher tortoise Permit. 3 . Prior to final Plat/Construction Plans approval the petitioner shall submit copies of all necessary environmental permits (ERP, USACOE) . 4 . Prior to final plat approval a conservation Easement shall be placed over the preserves and recorded on the plat with protective covenants per or similar to Section 704 . 06 or the Florida Statutes . Conservation areas shall be dedicated on the plat to the project ' s homeowners association of like entity for ownership and maintenance responsibility and to Collier County with no responsibility for maintenance. 5. The final plat shall appropriately re-label "Tract C" as / "upland or wetland preserve" .

STAFF COMMENTS: Water Management: The site consists of four basins,A-1, A-2,B & C. Basin A-1 discharges into an existing lake that discharges through existing box culverts under I-75. The lake was dug for the construction of I- 75.Basin A-2 is served by two connected lakes that discharge through existing box culverts under I-75 toward the D-2 canal. Basin"B" is served by a wetland preserve interconnected with three lakes. The eastern-most lake discharges into an existing swale to the south which flows east to a box culvert under I-75. Basin "C" is served by an interconnected lake and wetland. The wetland discharges west into a swale flowing south that empties into the same westerly flowing swale as Basin"B". Environmental: The subject property is an undeveloped 83.9 acre parcel of land located between Whippoorwill Lane and Interstate 75 approximately three quarter mile south of Pine Ridge Road.Native habitats on site include pine flatwoods, pine-cypress-cabbage palm, palmetto prairie and cypress forest. Also on the property is a large borrow pit, several dirt roads and evidence of two old homesites. Approximately 24 acres(29 percent)of the site will be retained in preserve areas as shown on the PUD master plan. Approximately 43.32 acres of Collier County/South Florida Water Management (SFWMD) jurisdictional wetlands occur on the subject property. Of these approximately 18.39 acres will be impacted by development. To offset wetland losses the petitioner proposes on site preservation and restoration of 16.9 acres of wetlands and 7.33 acres of uplands.Exotic vegetation removal and supplemental plantings will be conducted in accordance with South Florida Water Management District and U.S.Army Corps of Engineers permit criteria. Four soil types have been identified on the subject property. These include (2) Holopaw Fine Sand,Limestone Substratum,(3)Malabar Fine Sand,(21)Boca Fine Sand and(27)Holopaw Fine Sand. All soil types encountered on site are listed as hydric by the Collier Soil and Water Conservation District with the exception of(21)Boca Fine Sand. The petitioner conducted a threatened and endangered species survey during the month of December, 1997.Early morning(0730-1000),mid-day(1100- 1500)and late-day(1500- 1800) EAB Meeting March 4, 1998 PUD-98-1 (Whippoorwill Woods) Page 3 time periods were chosen to conduct the survey. Two listed wildlife species were found during the survey, Big Cypress fox squirrel (Sciurus niger avicennia) and gopher tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus). A single fox squirrel was located at the southern property boundary, actively foraging. Two active gopher tortoise burrows each approximately eight inches wide were identified in the same vicinity as the fox squirrel. The area of the sightings will be incorporated into a preserve area on site. Several species of plants listed by governmental agencies were found on the property during transect surveys. These include Tillandsia species, shoestring fern (Vittaria lineata) and golden polypody(Phlebodium aureum). A review of the official Historical/Archaeological Probability Maps for Collier County indicate no archaeological or historical sites to be located on the subject property. Correspondence from the Florida Department of State, Division of Historical Resources, lists no archaeological sites, historical standing structures or field surveys for Section 18, Township 49 South, Range 26 East, Collier County,Florida.
