Agenda 09/23/2014 Item #16A28EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 9/23/2014 16.A.28.
Recommendation to approve and authorize the Chairman to sign a Collier County Landscape
Maintenance Agreement (Agreement) between Collier County and the Royal Wood Master
Association, Inc. for a landscape planting along Santa Barbara Boulevard and reduces the
permitting fees from $2,000 for a commercial large residential development to $200.00 for a
residential landscaping site.
OBJECTIVE: That the Board approves and authorizes the Chairman to sign the attached Collier County
Landscape Maintenance Agreement permitting landscaping improvements within County right -of -way
and insuring that the Royal Wood Master Association will maintain the plantings accordingly, and
approves permitting fee reduction from $2,000.00 to $200.00.
CONSIDERATIONS: Collier County was approached by the Royal Wood Master Association, Inc. to
install a landscape buffer within the Santa Barbara Blvd. right -of -way in front of a County maintained
noise wall. The selection of plant material has been reviewed and accepted by the County and the
residential community. The Royal Wood Master Association has agreed to maintain the hedge and
setback the planting five feet from the noise wall to provide Road Maintenance access to the wall. The
Royal Wood Master Association requested a decrease in permitting fees since it will be assuming
maintenance of the right of way, improving the aesthetics of the County roadway, and will not require any
roadway, traffic signal, sidewalk, or highway lighting inspections. Staff supports and recommends
reducing the permitting fee from the $2,000 to $200.00 which is applicable for a residential landscape
construction site because, this will not require traffic engineering reviews, inspections, and oversight
during installation. This project does not damage or improve sidewalks and roadways within the right of
way. Through a cost benefit analysis, the County will recognize a savings of approximately $1,872 each
year. The County will realize an annual savings through maintenance costs; therefore it is reasonable to
reduce the permitting fee.
The Agreement may be freely terminated as of right by either party, with or without cause, upon written
notice to the other. If the Association exercises this right, or if the County exercises this right based upon
the Association's substantial breach of this Agreement, then upon written demand by County, the
Association, at its sole cost and expense, shall remove the Improvements and will restore the right -of -way
to the condition that existed immediately prior to the effective date of this Agreement. If the County
exercises this right, or if the Association exercises this right based upon the County's substantial breach
of this Agreement, then the County will be responsible for any removal of the Improvements or.
restoration of the right -of -way. Except for the above, neither party will be liable to the other for any
damages or claims resulting from the termination of this Agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no cost to Collier County associated with this proposal. There is a cost
savings associated with the mowing maintenance. The right of way area in front of Royal Wood on Santa
Barbara Blvd. is approximately 1.56 acres. The annual cost for Road Maintenance to mow is
approximately $78 per service or a savings of between $1,326 for 17 services to $1,872 for 24 mowing
services required to maintain.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been approved as to form and legality, and requires a
majority vote for Board approval -SAS.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no Growth Management Impact associated with this
Executive Summary.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board approves and authorizes the Chairman to sign a Collier County
Landscape Maintenance Agreement between Collier County and the Royal Wood Master Association for
a landscape planting buffer along Santa Barbara Blvd. and reduces the permitting fees from $2,000 for a
commercial large residential development to $200.00 for a residential landscaping site.

RE: Permit Fees
9/23/2014 16.A.28.
Royal Wood is requesting the $2000 fee for the right of way along Santa Barbara Boulevard be
waived for a variety of reasons. In no particular order:
* The fee was waived when Royal Wood landscaped Rattlesnake Hammock Boulevard
approximately three years ago.
* Royal Wood is assuming all future turf grass maintenance, thus relieving the County of this
expense.
* Royal Wood is aesthetically improving Santa Barbara Boulevard, which is County property,
and not requesting any financial assistance to do so.
* The County has no direct expense in this project to justify a $2000 fee.
Please feel free to contact me if I may assist you further.
On behalf of Royal Wood I appreciate all consideration in this matter.
Kind regards,
Tim Hayes, CCM, CAM
