Agenda 09/08/2015 Item #16A459/8/2015 16.A.45.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to provide after- the -fact approval for the submittal of a 2015 Regional
Coastal Resilience Grant application sponsored by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) in the amount of $1,373,734 for Phase 1 of the Naples Park Area
Stormwater Improvement Project.
OBJECTIVE: For the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) to approve the after - the -fact
submittal of the attached NOAA Grant application in the amount of $1,373,734.
CONSIDERATIONS: The NOAA National Ocean Service announced funding for projects that
meet the objectives of the Regional Coastal Resilience Program that support actions that build
resilience of U.S. communities and existing and emerging economic sectors, using regional
approaches. Staff determined that the Naples Park Area Stormwater Improvement Project
qualifies for funding under this Grant.
The Naples Park Area Stormwater Improvement Project is a seven -year, phased project that
includes 21 streets, bounded on the north by 111th Avenue North, Tamiami Trail North (U.S.41)
on the east, Vanderbilt Drive on the west, and 91St Avenue North on the south.
Much of the development of the Naples Park Subdivision occurred in the 1960s, prior to the
implementation of current water management regulations, and therefore lack water quantity and
quality discharge controls. A system of roadside swales makes up the majority of the area's
stormwater management collection, treatment, and conveyance facilities. The stormwater system
is failing due to aging storage and conveyance facilities in many locations. As a result, the
community experiences chronic street flooding during typical summer storms and substantial
flooding and property damage during high intensity rainfall from tropical storms and hurricane
events with tidal surges.
The NOAA Grant, if awarded to the County, will fund approximately $686,867 of the total
project cost of $1,373,734 for the first project phase (1111h, 110th, and 109th Avenues North); with
the County providing a 50% match. The project will include improvements to the swale system
and driveway culverts, and installation of stormwater treatment interceptors, to improve the
overall collection, treatment, and conveyance of stormwater runoff, thereby improving water
quality treatment, resulting in the reduction of pollutant loading to Wiggins Pass estuary.
The submittal deadline for the Grant was July 24, 2015. Collier County's Administrative
Procedure CMA #5530 authorizes the County Manager to approve the submittal of grant
applications with subsequent Board of County Commissioners' action at the next available
meeting to ratify the approval and grant filing after - the -fact.

RE: Grant Application Opportunity Number NOAH- NOS -OCM- 2015- 2004324 — Naples Park Area Stormwater
Improvement Project
Dear Ms. Warr:
On behalf of the Board of County Commissioners, Collier County, Florida, I am pleased to submit the following
application for consideration of the Naples Park Area Stormwater Improvement project in northwestern Collier
County for grant funding under NOAA's subject Regional Coastal Resilience Grants Program. The objective of
the project is to improve the existing stormwater conveyance, cross - drainage features and outfall system to avert
chronic flood hazard of the high density urban coastal community.
The project will include improvements to the present sluggish stormwater conveyance system of ditches and
inadequate capacity culverts that were built in the 1960s. The County presently has formulated plans to upgrade
the overall utility infrastructures of potable water supply distribution and sanitary sewer system, in addition to the
stormwater system. In order to optimize the funding strategy, and minimization of the disruption to the
community, the infrastructure improvements to the three utilities will be implemented together on a seven -year
schedule. The request for funding in this application covers the stormwater system improvements for the
northernmost three streets (I I I", 110`x, & 109's Avenues North) during FY 2016 -2017.
The economy and standard of living in Collier County is inextricably linked to the health and productivity of our
coast. Implementation of the project will eliminate public health hazard and economic loss caused by frequent
flooding and from potential hazards of tropical weather systems. The stormwater system upgrade will also
improve the water quality of the receiving waters of the Vanderbilt Lagoon and Wiggins Pass estuary, a
designated Outstanding Florida Water body.
We look forward to work in partnership with NOAA in implementing this important project to build regional
resilience of the coastal Collier County community to the risks of climate hazards and changing sea conditions.
Should you have any questions, or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Gerald
Kurtz, P.E, Principal Investigator of the project at 239- 252 -5280,

PROJECT SUMMARY:
The Naples metropolitan area of Florida is a charming resort community on the shores of
the Gulf of Mexico. With year round pleasant subtropical temperature, sandy white
beaches, productive estuaries for commercial and recreational fishing, the area has long
been evolved as a hideaway not only for retirees, but also for affluent younger populace.
In spite of an above average economy for the region, there are pockets of older coastal
neighborhoods without modern urban facilities for stormwater management and are
vulnerable to frequent flooding, pollution of the estuaries and threats to public health. The
Naples Park area in northern Collier County is one such coastal area without efficient
stormwater conveyance and treatment infrastructures, and is non - resilient to the frequent
risks of flooding, pollution of the estuaries and public health hazard.
Located on a coastal ridge approximately half a mile east of the Gulf of Mexico coastline
in northwestern Collier County, the Naples Park area is a high density residential area
(Figure 1). With a retail commercial strip along the eastern edge, the area is bounded by
Vanderbilt Drive to the west, 111th Avenue North to the north, US 41 to the east and 91St
Avenue North on the south. The area includes twenty, approximately 1 mile long, internal
residential streets that are at high risk for frequent flooding.
Much of the development occurred in the 1960s, prior to the implementation of the current
water management regulations without water quantity and quality discharge controls. A

system of roadside swales makes up the majority of the area's stormwater management
collection, treatment, and conveyance facilities. The original drainage pattern pulled runoff
from the east side of the ridge through roadside swales toward 8th street where there was
a ditch to intercept the swales. Currently the flow is generally to the north for areas near
US 41 and to the west for the remainder of the subdivision. The system has failed
because of age at many locations. Chronic street and yard flooding is a regular
occurrence during typical summer storms, with significant flooding and property damage
during high intensity rainfall from tropical storm and hurricane events with tidal surges.
The focus of this project is to enhance the performance of the existing stormwater
conveyance facilities and to provide treatment of stormwater runoff before its outfall at
Vanderbilt Lagoon with eventual discharges to Wiggins Pass estuary, a designated
Outstanding Florida Water body. Preliminary engineering design of the conceptual
structural components of the project have been completed. Final design and preparation
of construction plans and specifications and regulatory permit tasks are planned. The
project will include improvements to the system of swales and driveway culverts and
installation of stormwater treatment interceptors for providing water quantity or quality
discharge controls. Because each east -west avenue acts almost as a separate drainage
basin, additional treatment of stormwater by detention, and exfiltration in the swales will
be considered to mitigate potential for flooding.
The implementation of the project will be the responsibility of Collier County. The County
staff will provide project management and will commission contractual services for the
design, permitting and construction tasks for the project.
The project is expected to result in building increased resilience of this coastal community
to risks of climate hazards with a net benefit in water quality to the receiving waters of the
Vanderbilt Lagoon and Wiggins Pass estuary. More significantly, it will lead to elimination
of public health hazard and property damage potential by chronic flooding. The completed
project would build resilience of the community and regional emerging economic sectors
of southwest Florida from hazards of tropical weather and changing sea conditions. The
completed project would also provide opportunities to further study water quality
treatment best management practices as a means to control and treat stormwater
discharges from older developed areas into natural systems.
PROJECT BACKGROUND:
The Naples Park project location as depicted in Figure 1 is environmentally strategic in
that the receiving water bodies of Vanderbilt Lagoon is listed as impaired by the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection, and has potential to degrade the water quality of
Wiggins pass estuary, a designated Outstanding Florida Water (OFW). The land use is
primarily high density residential with minor retail commercial land use along US41. Much
of the development within the basin was constructed prior to the implementation of the
current water management regulations.

Topographically, Naples Park is located on an old coastal ridge, with the ridge running
roughly from the northwest corner to the southeast corner of the neighborhood. Soils are
typically sand in the top 15 to 20 feet, with occasional areas of organics. Rock is rarely
encountered in the top 15 feet of soil in Naples Park. The water table is typically
encountered 4 to 6 feet below grade, but seasonal highs may rise to 2 feet below grade
The original drainage pattern pulled runoff from the east side of the ridge through
roadside swales toward 8th street where there was a ditch to intercept the swales. From
approximately 102nd Avenue the ditch flowed south to 92nd Avenue and then west into
the Vanderbilt Lagoon. From 103rd Avenue the ditch flowed north and onto vacant land
north of 111th Avenue and ultimately to an outfall ditch leading to tidal waters. The areas
to the east of the ridge flowed into swales toward Vanderbilt Drive where there were
culverts under Vanderbilt Drive that allowed the stormwater to discharge into the ends of
the finger canals in Conners Subdivision (Vanderbilt Lagoon).
Improvements were made in the 1980s and 1990s to install a backbone drainage network
along 8th Street, convey the ease -west drainage canal to Vanderbilt Lagoon, increase the
size of the culvert pipes under Vanderbilt Drive, improve the outfalls to Vanderbilt Lagoon,
and improve the outfall to the north through what is now the Old Collier Golf Club. The
stormwater system is primarily 15 and 18 -inch reinforced concrete and corrugated metal
piping under driveways and open swale drainage along front yards. Larger diameter
drainage pipes exist along 8th Street and also in the drainage easement in the rear yards
of the homes between 91 st and 92nd Aves. Currently the flow is generally to the north for
areas near US 41 and to the west for the remainder of the subdivision. Many of the
original galvanized corrugated metal pipe driveway culverts were installed with minimal
cover over the top of pipe. The corrugated metal pipe was often damaged due to the
weight of large vehicles. Damaged /crushed corrugated pipe reduces carrying capacity of
the driveway culvert and compromises the galvanized coating which in turn accelerates
corrosion. In some instances driveway culverts are corroded to the point where the
bottom portion of the pipe no longer exists. Additionally, damaged pipe caused erosion of
the limited backfill underneath driveway aprons. This caused multiple washouts and
failures throughout the neighborhood.
Overall, the system has failed because of age at many locations with flooding of swales
and streets common during the wet season. The worse flooding typically occurs around
the 700 and 800 blocks of 111th through 105th Avenues and the western third of the 600
blocks of 91 st through 95th Avenues.

Figure 2: Flooded Streets of Naples Park
In terms of water quality, stormwater discharge from Naples Park to the Vanderbilt
Lagoon and ultimately to the Gulf of Mexico through Wiggins Pass has been a concern of
regulators and residents for many years. Although the system was somewhat effectively
designed with open swales to allow infiltration, it does not provide any designed or readily
quantifiable detention volume. Past permitting for the project relied on the open swales
(and later allowed enclosure with perforated pipe and gravel trenches) but did not require
any control structures.

PROJECT OBJECTIVE(S):
The objective of the project are to reduce the risks of public health and safety from
chronic flooding and water pollution of the receiving estuaries by:
• Improving stormwater conveyance of a poorly drained coastal area, thus improving
the resilience of the community to flooding.
• Collecting untreated stormwater discharges and providing for volumetric storage
and water quality treatment prior to discharge into an estuary designated as
Outstanding Florida Water.
• Eliminating public health hazard and property loss from chronic flooding.
• Eliminate a historic man made point source pollutant load and provide discharge
controls for stormwater quantity and quality from a drainage basin that contains
limited stormwater treatment facilities.
• Providing future research opportunities to measure level of treatment and establish
useful treatment mechanisms for urban - natural system interface areas.
APPROACH
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT CONSTRUCTION FEATURES:
The project structural features will include improvements to existing roadside swales to
the County's level of service discharge capacity for high density urban areas, upgrading
of the driveway culverts and roadway crossing culverts at three streets (6th.7th and 8th
Streets), and stormwater interceptors with detention facilities to convey and treat
stormwater runoff. The project will also involve a public input process during design and
construction. Water quality monitoring programs consistent with South Florida Water
Management District permit requirements will be implemented and data will be
maintained for future use in research and design of similar other projects.
Project Phases:
Collier County presently has formulated an active plan to upgrade the overall utility
infrastructures of potable water supply distribution system and sanitary sewer system, in
addition to the stormwater conveyance and outfall system. This grant application covers
request for supplemental funds for upgrading the stormwater conveyance and outfall
system only. In order to optimize the funding strategy, and minimization of the disruption
to the community, the County plans to perform the infrastructure improvements of the
three utilities together on a seven -year schedule, undertaking the construction along three
east -west streets per year as illustrated in Figure 3. Accordingly, the request for funding
in this application covers implementation of stormwater system improvements for the
northernmost three streets (111th, 1101h, & 109th Avenues North) during FY 2016 -17.

PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT AND OUTCOMES:
The residents of Naples Park take great pride in their community and they want to be a
part of the projects that affect their neighborhood. Building a relationship with the
community early in the project and communicating clearly throughout the project is of
utmost importance. Informing residents as soon as possible about the projects key
milestone and disruptive activities including traffic pattern changes, and solid
waste /recycling service changes will help to minimize resident apprehensions. An
aggressive public outreach plan will be framed for upfront interactive communication
with the community to accommodate their concerns, and help to prepare them for
disruptions and inconveniences during implementation of the project.
The key stakeholders that we anticipate coordinating with are listed below:
The Residents of Naples Park
The Naples Park Area Association
The businesses within and around
medical facilities, and senior facilities
Naples Park Elementary School

the infrastructure improvement project through the following website.
hftp://napiesparkareaassociation.org/colliercountyprooects.html
LAND OWNERSHIP STATUS: No additional land acquisition is needed for construction,
operation and maintenance of the project. All improvements to the swales, driveway
culverts and stormwater detentions/ exfiltration measures will be performed within the
road right of ways and utility easements.
OUTPUTS /DELIVERABLES: The ultimate goal of the project is to completion of final
design, permitting, and construction of roadside swale improvements and stormwater
outfall facilities. The following is a description of the tasks needed to accomplish the goal:
Task 1 — Construction Plans and Permitting: Preliminary conceptual design has been
completed. Final design will be initiated. Necessary Federal, State and local regulatory
permits will be obtained prior to construction. Consulting engineering and inspection
services will be required during construction.
Task 2 — Public Involvement: A minimum of two public information meetings will be
conducted to inform the public and solicit comments from residents in the area. The
second meeting presenting the near completion design will be used to educate the public
in stormwater best management practices.
Task 3 — Construction: Construction of the Naples Park Area Stormwater Improvement
Project will begin after all necessary permits have been received. Collier County will
provide project management and inspection to ensure that improvements are built in
accordance with the plans.
Task 4 — Monitoring: A post project water quality monitoring plan is generally required as
a part of environmental resources permit to demonstrate the project effectiveness. A
detailed water quality monitoring plan will be submitted for review within three months of
the grant award.
