The Collier County Adopt-A-Road program is an environmental protection program developed
through a public/private partnership that is dedicated to providing safe and clean roads by the
removal of roadside litter. The Collier County Adopt-A-Road program encourages citizens to
demonstrate civic pride by taking group action to help keep county roads beautiful and free of
litter. The Adopt-A-Road Program is an excellent example of the public and private sector
working together to solve a community problem.
Through this program, local civic, community, neighborhood and business groups can adopt a
two-mile segment of roadway, whereby they contract with the County to pick up litter on a
monthly basis. Groups are required to attend a meeting, organized by the sponsor, to review
safety guidelines and procedures. The sponsor is provided with literature on safety topics and
procedural guidelines reviewed by the county.
FISCAL IMPACT: The County is responsible for acquiring and erecting recognition signage at
either end of the roadway segment. The cost of each sign is $75.00. Staff expects to install two
(2) new signs at a total cost of$150.00. Program expenses are budgeted in the Transportation
Services Fund 101-163620.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality, and requires
majority vote for Board approval.—SRT
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no Growth Management Impact associated
with this Executive Summary.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners recognize the volunteer
group: Porter Wright Morris & Arthur, LLP as the sponsor of Vanderbilt Drive from 111th Ave.
North to Wiggins Pass Road, and that the Board of County Commissioners authorize its
Chairman to execute the attached Adopt-A-Road Program Agreement on behalf of the County.
