EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve a standard Donation Agreement that allows JD DEVELOPMENT 1
LLC, a foreign limited liability company, to donate a 1.14 acre parcel along with a management
endowment of $4,440.30 to the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Program under the offsite
vegetation retention provision of the Land Development Code LDC Sec 3.05.07H.I.Eiii. (b), at no
cost to the County, and authorize the Chairman to sign the Donation Agreement and staff to take
all necessary actions to close. Companion to Item 16A16.
OBJECTIVE: To accept of a donation of a 1.14 -acre parcel for the Conservation Collier Program, with
prohibited exotic vegetation having been removed, and including a management endowment of
$4,440.30.
CONSIDERATIONS: A 2010 Land Development Code (LDC) amendment (Section 3.05.07 H.l.f.iii.
(b)) provides the option to developers to accomplish their required native vegetation retention offsite by
donating lands and management endowment funds to the Conservation Collier Program.
JD DEVELOPMENT 1 LLC, a foreign limited liability company, is presently under contract to purchase
a 1.14 acre parcel and has advised staff it plans to convey this parcel located within the Red Maple
Swamp Preserve in North Golden Gate Estates, along with a management endowment, to the
Conservation Collier Program as offsite preservation for 0.75 acres on the Legacy Estates development
(PL20140001803) under the above referenced LDC provision. JD DEVELOPMENT 1 LLC, a foreign
limited liability company, has further informed staff that it expects to close by the deadline set forth in
Paragraph 3of the Agreement, sixty (60) days from Board approval. The referenced Donation Agreement
deadline provides that failing to timely close will result in the Agreement becoming null and void, and of
no further force and effect.
This parcel will be cleared of exotic vegetation prior to donation. The management endowment of
$4,440.30 satisfies the LDC (Section 3.05.07 H.l.f.iii. (b)) requirement that "The amount of payment
shall be equal to 25 percent of the average cost of land in the Urban Designation or 25 percent of the
average cost of land in all of the Designations, as applicable, as defined by the Future Land Use Element
(FLUE), purchased by Collier County through the Conservation Collier Program." The average cost of
land in all other Designations is $15,508 per acre; therefore the endowment is calculated at $15,580 x 25
(acres) for a total endowment amount of $4,440.30. To benchmark the endowment formula, the South
Florida Water Management District requires $500 per acre as endowment for donations. Acceptance of
this parcel by Conservation Collier will serve to further the protection of environmentally sensitive lands
within Red Maple Swamp Preserve.
The CCLAAC previously recommended acquisition of parcels within Red Maple Swamp Preserve, as all
parcels in this project are on the 2011 Active Acquisition A -List, which was approved at the January 25,
201 ]Board meeting (Agenda item I0B). Additionally, the Land Development Code (LDC) Section
3.05.07, H.l.f. iii. (b) specifically allows donations within North Golden Gate Estates Unit 53, aka Red
Maple Swamp Preserve.
Upon Board approval and acquisition of the parcel by JD Development I LLC within the 60 -day
deadline, the attached standard form Donation Agreement and a Warranty Deed will be prepared for the
County Attorney's Office review and approval for execution by the Chair and recordation.

6/23/2015 16.D.5.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no immediate fiscal impact to the County associated with acceptance of this
property. The Collier County Property Appraiser values this parcel at $3,200 per acre or a total of $3,648.
The $4,440.30 management endowment required by the LDC is expected to cover maintenance costs for
approximately 8 years. Because of its environmental condition, its location within the Red Maple Swamp
Preserve boundary and the proposed management endowment, this 1.14 acre donation is not anticipated to
increase the Red Maple Swamp Preserve project perpetual operations and maintenance costs in the near
future. After endowment funds are depleted, cost to manage the property will be minimal. Potential future
costs will be incorporated into the Conservation Collier Long Term Financial Management Plan.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Fee simple acquisition of conservation lands is consistent with
and supports Policy 1.3.1(e) in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element of the Collier County
Growth Management Plan.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been approved for form and legality and requires majority
vote for approval. -JAB
RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the Board:
1) Approves and accepts a standard form Donation Agreement and Warranty Deed from JD
DEVELOPMENT 1 LLC, a foreign limited liability company.
2) Authorizes the Chairman to execute the Donation Agreement with JD DEVELOPMENT 1 LLC, a
foreign limited liability company, and any and all other documents related to this transaction once they
have been approved by the County Attorney's Office;
3) Authorizes staff to accept the land management endowment; and
4) Directs the County Manager or his designee to proceed to acquire this parcel, to follow all appropriate
closing procedures, to record the deed and any and all necessary documents to obtain clear title to this
parcel, and to take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure performance under the Agreement.

*It was determined that properties within NGGE Unit 53/Red Maple Swamp and
Winchester Head, which are both approved donation areas in the LDC, do not need to be
brought back to CCLAAC for additional recommendation. The date noted is when
CCLAAC last recommended the multi- parcel project for approval.
Purpose of Project: Environmental Conservation — Conservation Collier Program
Program Qualifications:
The Red Maple Swamp multi - parcel project, which includes the 1.14 -acre Legacy Estates
donation parcel, is referenced within the Land Development Code (LDC) Section
3.05.07, H.l.f. iii. a. as an appropriate offsite location for land donations to satisfy
developer preservation commitments.
Red Maple Swamp is an undeveloped Unit (Unit 53) within the North Golden Gate
Estates (NGGE) incorporating 305.69 acres and 105 parcels. Conservation Collier has
acquired 200.24 acres and 71 parcels and currently owns 65% of lands within the project
area.
Native habitat present over the whole unit is wetland hardwood forest, with a substantial
portion of that being dominated by cypress and red maple swamp and the remainder by
native and exotic re- growth over a historic faun field (approximately 100 acres). This
parcel is not within the old farm field area. Soils, hydrology and extant plant species
indicate that the entire unit is a seasonal wetland, with surface water present during rainy
season and moist conditions remaining during dry season (excepting drought conditions
when water tables may recede lower). The area contributes moderately to Lower
Tamiami aquifer recharge. This particular parcel contains cypress, red maple, dahoon
holly and popash in the canopy and wetland dependent and adapted plants in the midstory
and on the ground. Exotic invasive plants Brazilian pepper and Japanese climbing fern
make up anywhere from 15% to 35% of the vegetation, and exist throughout the parcel.
Listed wetland dependent birds, including wood storks, snowy egrets, ibis and little blue
herons have been observed during site visits to this area and the entire project area is
directly adjacent to Priority One Panther Habitat, as designated by the Florida Fish and
Wildlife Conservation Commission. Deer have been observed in the area and Florida
Black bears are known to inhabit adjoining public lands.
In addition to protecting wetlands and listed species habitat, another important reason for
the selection of Red Maple Swamp as a conservation target is that it is connected on its
north and west sides with the 60,000 acre Florida Forever Corkscrew Regional
Ecosystem Watershed (CREW) Project, which includes Corkscrew Marsh, Bird Rookery
Swamp, Flint Pen Strand and Audubon's Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary. Through them,
Red Maple Swamp (and this parcel) connects with the Pepper Ranch and Caracara Prairie
Preserves, private mitigation lands and lands protected under the County's Rural Lands
Stewardship Program. Conservation Collier acquisitions within NGGE Unit 53 would
enhance, protect, and buffer these conserved lands. The acquisition of lands within Red
Maple Swamp will also provide additional public access opportunities to the area
Packet Page -1501-
6/23/2015 16.D.5.
including a connection with adjoining Bird Rookery Swamp, where a 1,200 -foot
boardwalk has been built and nearly 12 miles of hiking trails have been created by South
Florida Water Management District ( SFWMD). Staff will coordinate with SFWMD when
planning for public access to Red Maple Swamp lands.
Projected Management Activities:
Removal of exotic plants, construction of trails, parking and placement of fencing and
signage are projected management activities. An Interim Management Plan (IMP) has
been drafted and approved. A final management plan will be developed once enough
contiguous parcels have been acquired to make management actions cost effective.
Currently, 50 contiguous acres on the west side of the preserve are under management for
exotic plants.
This parcel contained approximately 15 -35% exotic cover. It will be treated by the
donors prior to acceptance. Control of exotics on this parcel, consisting of herbicide
applications, will be ongoing from time of acceptance. The donated management
endowment of $4,440.30 will cover exotic maintenance for approximately 8 years. After
that time, exotic maintenance should be minimal and will be included in the management
budget for the overall Red Maple Swamp project. Because of the seasonal wetland
nature of the site, any future trails may be seasonal. A raised boardwalk would be the
best public access opportunity, however, this will not be considered until sometime well
into the future of the project when more parcels are acquired, if and when funds are
identified. Nature photography and bird watching from roadways are two activities that
can occur at present. After consideration of risks and liability, it may be possible to allow
school children to visit specific parcels as part of an educational program about wetlands.
Currently, 41 st Ave NW, an unpaved limerock road, provides access and the only parking
is along the road right -of -way. Minimal management activities, like regular visitation
and trash removal can be accomplished using both staff and volunteer labor.
