The Program was active in acquisition between 2003 and 2011, under the terms of the referendum. Between 2011 and 2016, the Program was in management mode. In 2017, the Collier County Board reauthorized Conservation Collier to seek additional lands (2/14/17, Agenda Item 11B). This Initial Criteria Screening Report (ICSR) has been prepared for the Conservation Collier Program in its 9th acquisition cycle to meet requirements specified in the Conservation Collier Implementation Ordinance, 2002-63, as amended, and for purposes of the Conservation Collier Program. It provides objective data to demonstrate how properties meet the criteria defined by the ordinance. That is the sole purpose for this report and it is not meant for any other use. This report makes use of data layers from the Florida Natural Areas Inventory and University of Florida Critical Lands and Waters Identification Project (CLIP4). CLIP4 is a collection of spatial data that identify statewide priorities for a broad range of natural resources in Flo rida. It was developed through a collaborative effort between the Florida Areas Natural Inventory (FNAI), the University of Florida GeoPlan Center and Center for Landscape Conservation Planning, and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). It is used in the Florida Forever Program to evaluate properties for acquisition. CLIP4 is organized into a set of core natural resource data layers which are representative of 5 resource categories: biodiversity, landscapes, surface water, groundwater and marine. The first 3 categories have also been combined into the Aggregated layer, which identifies 5 priority levels for natural resource conservation. Not all CLIP4 Layers were used in this report. Those used include: • Biodiversity • Surface Water Priorities • Landscape Integrity • Priority Natural Communities • Potential Habitat Richness (Vertebrates) • Strategic Habitat Conservation Areas • Aggregated Conservation Priorities Following the first section, which looks more closely at initial criteria, additional sections address potential for appropriate public use, assessment of management needs and costs, potential for matching funds, and a summary of the secondary screening criteria. The I-75 Project is not an approved multi-parcel project, but includes 12 properties that have been grouped together due to location. These properties were on the 2011 Conservation Collier AAL as B-List properties. Letters were sent to owners in June 2017 asking if they were still willing to sell. Staff received 3 positive responses: Faust, Berman Trust, and Mayr. The Faust parcel was rejected for the cycle by the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Advisory Committee (CCLAAC) on August 14, 2017. This report evaluates only the Berman Trust and Mayr parcels.

A value of the parcel was estimated using three traditional approaches, cost, income capitalization and sales comparison. Each is based on the principal of substitution that an informed purchaser would pay no more for the rights in acquiring a particular real property than the cost of acq uiring, without undue delay, an equally desirable one. Three properties from within 3 miles of this property were selected for comparison, each with similar site characteristics, utility availability, zoning classification and road access. No inspection was made of the property or comparables used in the report and the Real Estate Services Department staff relied upon information provided by program staff. Conclusions are limited only by the reported assumptions and conditions that no other known or unknown adverse conditions exist. Pursuant to the Conservation Collier Purchase Policy, one appraisal is required. Assessed Value: * Berman Trust - $20,534 Mayr - $28,140 Estimated Market Value: ** Berman Trust - $16,146 ($6,500/ac) (2008 Estimated Value – $42,500 or $18,000/ac) Mayr - $52,930 ($7,900/ac) (2007 Estimated Value - $201,000 or $30,000/ac) “ESTIMATED MARKET VALUE” IS SOLELY AN ESTIMATE OF VALUE PROVIDED BY COLLIER COUNTY REAL ESTATE SERVICES DEPARTMENT STAFF AND SHOULD NOT BE RELIED UPON BY ANY ENTITY. Zoning, Growth Management and Conservation Overlays Zoning, growth management and conservation overlays will affect the value of a parcel. These parcels are both zoned Estates. They are not within an established growth management and/or other type of overlay. There are no limitations other than zoning regulations to bar their development. The Florida Wildlife Federation requested that CCLAAC explore how purchase of the Gore and I-75 Properties can complement Collier County’s 2012 Master Mobility Plan, 2011 Watershed Management Plan, and wildlife compensation/wetland mitigation obligations resulting from planned county infrastructure projects. Acquisition of the Gore and I-75 properties would support the efforts and design solutions for water quality and open space identified in each of those documents by providing for adequate areas of aquifer and groundwater recharge within an eastern area of the County that growth and development pressures are starting to encroach upon. Further, the Conservation Collier ownership will further establish the goals within the Recreational and Open Space Element of the Collier GMP by increasing public ownership of environmentally valuable properties while also enhancing public access availability. Additionally, as suggested within the Master Mobility Plan, the acquisition of the identified properties would allow for protection of environmentally lands located within areas that contribute to ecological connectivity that supports a landscape scale approach to environmental protection. * Property Appraiser’s Website ** Collier County Real Estate Services Department – date of value estimate – September 2010 26.A.4 Packet Pg. 519 Attachment: ISCR-I-75 project 2018 (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio # Berman Trust: 41506800006 Folio # Mayr: 41661080004 Owner Name: I-75 Project – Berman Trust and Mayr Date: February 12, 2018 Page 9 of 51 II. Statement for satisfying Initial Screening Criteria, Including Biological and Hydrological Characteristics The purpose of this section is to provide a closer look at how these properties meet initial criteria. Conservation Collier Program staff conducted a site visit to both properties on January 26, 2018. Previous site visits were made by staff to Mayr in 2007 and Berman Trust in 2008. MEETS INITIAL SCREENING CRITERIA- 1. Are any of the following unique and endangered plant communities found on the property? Order of preference as follows: Ord. 2002-63, Sec. 10 (1)(a) Yes i. Hardwood hammocks No ii. Xeric oak scrub No iii. Coastal strand No iv. Native beach No v. Xeric pine No vi. Riverine Oak No vii. High marsh (saline) No viii. Tidal freshwater marsh No ix. Other native habitats YES - both Vegetative Communities: Staff used two methods to determine native plant communities present; review of South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) electronic databases for Department of Transportation’s Florida Land Use, Cover and Forms (FLUCCS) (1994/1995) (Exhibit A) and field verification of same. FLUCCS: The 2009 electronic database identified: 6170 – Mixed wetland hardwoods as the primary vegetative community present on both the Berman Trust and Mayr parcels. The Mayr parcel was also mapped with just over 1 acre of Mixed wetland hardwoods- shrubs on the north side (Exhibit A). The following native plant communities were observed: Berman Trust: 6170 – Mixed wetland hardwoods – all portions of the parcel Mayr – 4280 - Cabbage palm and a slash pine component with small areas of 4250 - Temperate hardwood hammock. Characterization of Plant Communities present -A combination of 2007 (Mayr), 2008 (Berman Trust), and 2018 site visits to both: Mayr Ground Cover: Ground cover vegetation includes in order of dominance: Various grasses, bluestem (Andropogon sp.), bracken fern (Pteridium aquilinum), wild coffee (Psychotira nervosa and P. sulznerii), dog fennel (Eupatorium capillifolium), spanish needles (Bidens alba), muscadine (Vitis rotundifolia), common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia), poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), Virginia creeper (Parthenocissus 26.A.4 Packet Pg. 520 Attachment: ISCR-I-75 project 2018 (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio # Berman Trust: 41506800006 Folio # Mayr: 41661080004 Owner Name: I-75 Project – Berman Trust and Mayr Date: February 12, 2018 Page 10 of 51 quinquefolia), toothpetal orchid (Habernaria sp.), dodder (Cuscuta sp.), semaphore (Eupatorium mikanioides), swamp fern (Blechnum serrulatum), southern river sage (Salvia misella), and passionvine (Passiflora sp.). In the temperate hardwood hammock, additions were bidens (Bidens alba), mikania (Mikania cordifolia) and beautyberry (Callicarpa Americana). Brazilian pepper (Schinus terebinthifolius) and Ceasar’s weed (Urena lobata) were also found in the hammock areas. . Midstory: Midstory vegetation includes, in order of dominance: saw palmetto (Serenoa repens), cabbage palm (Sabal palmetto), wild coffee (both Psychotria nervosa and P. sulznerii), beautyberry (Callicarpa Americana), marlberry (Ardisia escallonioides), sumac (Rhus copallina) and buttonbush-few (Cephalanthes occidentalis). Epiphytic ferns include shoelace fern (Vittaria lineata), golden foot fern (Phlebodium aureum), and resurrection fern (Polypodium polypodioides). Canopy: Cabbage palm (Sabal palmetto) dominated the canopy vegetation, with the following scattered throughout: slash pines (Pinus elliottii), bay (Persea sp.), live oak (Quercus virginiana) and strangler fig (Ficus aurea). In the temperate hardwood hammock, canopy species include cabbage palm, live oak and bay. Berman Trust Ground Cover: Ground cover species observed were swamp fern (Blechnum serrulatum), sword fern (Nephrolepis sp.), wild coffee (both P. nervosa and P. sulznerii), Jack-in-the-bush (chromoaelena odorata), giant sword fern (Nephrolepis biserrata), strap fern (Campyloneurum sp.), Bracken fern (Pteridium aquilinum), maiden fern (Thelypteris sp.) and golden polypody (Phlebodium aureum). Vines include: Poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), Virginia creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia), Vitis sp., Smilax spp., and vetch (Vicia sp.). Midstory: Midstory species included marlberry (Ardesia escallonioides), wild coffee (P. nervosa and P. sulzneri), cabbage palm, dahoon holly (Ilex cassine), hog plum (Ximenia americana), myrsine (Myrsine floridana), strangler fig (Ficus aurea) and wild lime (Zanthoxylum fagara). Canopy: Cypress (Taxodium distichum), laurel oak (Quercus laurifolia), live oak (Quercus virginiana), cabbage palm (Sabal palmetto), red maple (Acer rubrum), slash pine, and bay (Persea sp.) Statement for satisfaction of criteria: These data indicate that while the Ordinance-identified endangered plant communities are not present on both parcels, intact native plant communities are present. The Mayr parcel appeared to be succeeding slightly in that there was more underbrush present in the recent site visit than in 2007, and some larger hardwoods in open areas were dead. The soil type on Mayr would naturally support a pine flatwood.

On the Berman Trust parcel Many of the plants observed in the central and eastern portions of the parcel are obligate and facultative wetland plant species, with more upland species dominating the western side of the parcel. This observation loosely corresponds to mapped soil types, indicating that the historic native plant communities are still present. 2. Does land offer significant human social values, such as equitable geographic distribution, appropriate access for nature-based recreation, and enhancement of the aesthetic setting of Collier County? Ord. 2002-63, Sec. 10 (1)(b) YES Statement for satisfaction of criteria: Mayr: The propert y abuts 42nd Ave SE, an unpaved road within the I-75 right-of way (ROW). There is appropriate access for nature-based recreation as a recorded agreement gives property owners along the ROW a legal right to access. Trails could be developed on the property. Approximately 300 feet of the south end of the property is visible from the highway through a fringe of vegetation bordering the canal. As such, it minimally enhances the aesthetics of Collier County. This parcel is located near a group of other parcels that have been targeted, Gore parcels. This group of parcels is geographically distinct from other Conservation Collier projects, the closest of which, Nancy Payton Preserve, is approximately 7 miles to the northwest. The Winchester Head multi-parcel project is approximately 10 miles north. Berman Trust: This parcel offers access from DeSoto Blvd – a paved public road. This property could accommodate outdoor recreation, particularly if combined with others in this area have been that have been nominated to Conservation Collier (Gore parcels). Nominated properties in this location were first placed on Conservation Collier’s “B” list in Cycle 5 (2007) awaiting determination of a projected I-75 access from Everglades Blvd. That effort is not still underway, but is likely to resurface in the future as the NGGE builds out more. The Nancy Payton Preserve (approx. 10 miles NW of the parcels) is the closest Conservation Collier property. 3. Does the property offer opportunities for protection of water resource values, including aquifer recharge, water quality enhancement, protection of wetland dependent species habitat, and flood control? Ord. 2002-63, Sec. 10 (1)(c) YES to both for aquifer recharge. Marginal to Mayr for wetland species protection . General Hydrologic Characteristics observed and description of adjacent upland /wetland buffers: The Mayr parcel is situated between 9 and 11 feet in elevation and the Berman Trust parcel is at close to 11 feet in elevation according to LIDAR mapping (Light Detection and Ranging) (Exhibit G). No hydrologic indicators were observed on the Mayr parcel. The Berman Trust parcel contained karst features. Karst is a landscape underlain by limestone that has been eroded by dissolution, producing ridges, sinkholes 26.A.4 Packet Pg. 522 Attachment: ISCR-I-75 project 2018 (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio # Berman Trust: 41506800006 Folio # Mayr: 41661080004 Owner Name: I-75 Project – Berman Trust and Mayr Date: February 12, 2018 Page 12 of 51 and other characteristic landforms. While no standing water was observed on Berman Trust parcel, the interior was moist with many ferns in the ground cover vegetation. Wetland dependent plant species (OBL/ FACW) observed on the Mayr parcel: OBL FACW bay (Persea sp) swamp fern (Blechnum serrulatum) buttonbush (Cephalanthus occidentalis) Wetland dependent plant species (OBL/ FACW) observed on the Berman Trust parcel: OBL FACW bay (Persea sp) swamp fern (Blechnum serrulatum) cypress (Taxodium distichum) red maple (Acer rubrum) dahoon holly (Ilex cassine) sword fern (Nephrolepis sp.) giant sword fern (Nephrolepis biserrata) wild coffee (Psychotria nervosa and P. sulznerii) wild coffee (Psychotria sulznerii) strangler fig (Ficus aurea) laurel oak (Quercus laurifolia) vetch (Vicia sp.) maiden fern (Thelypteris sp.) Wetland dependent wildlife species observed: Mayr: None observed. Berman Trust: A native apple snail (Pomace asp.) shell was found on the parcel. Other Hydrologic indicators observed: Mayr: None observed. Berman Trust: Karst topography was found at the Berman Trust parcel. Karst topography is a landscape of distinctive dissolution patterns in the surface rock – in this case calcium carbonate - often marked by underground drainages and sometimes indicative of the presence of caves. Karst is a wetland indicator. Soils: Soils data is based on the Soil Survey of Collier County Area, Florida (USDA/NRCS, 1990). Mayr: Soils are mapped as 100% upland soils – Hallandale fine sands (11). These soils are typically found in conjunction with pine flatwoods. Natural vegetation consists of slash pine, saw palmetto, and grasses. The vegetation observed corresponded somewhat with mapped soils, but was dominated by oaks and cabbage palms instead of slash pines (Exhibit B). 26.A.4 Packet Pg. 523 Attachment: ISCR-I-75 project 2018 (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio # Berman Trust: 41506800006 Folio # Mayr: 41661080004 Owner Name: I-75 Project – Berman Trust and Mayr Date: February 12, 2018 Page 13 of 51 Berman Trust: Approximately two-thirds of the eastern portion of the property is mapped as consisting of Hallandale and Boca fine sands; these are poorly drained soils found in sloughs and drainageways. Natural vegetation typical of these soils includes scrub cypress, sand cordgrass, wax myrtle, and maidencane. The western one-third is mapped as having Hallandale Fine Sands, an upland soil type where cabbage palm and palmetto are typically found. Vegetation observed corresponds somewhat with what would be expected on these soils (Exhibit B). Neither parcel contained CLIP4 Priority Natural Communities (Exhibit A). Aquifer Recharge Potential: Aquifer recharge map data was developed by Fairbank, P. and S. Hohner in 1995 and published as Mapping recharge (infiltration and leakage) throughout the South Florida Water Management District, Technical publication 95-20 (DRE # 327), South Florida Water Management District, West Palm Beach, Florida. Lower Tamiami Recharge Capacity: Both Mayr and Berman Trust: 0” to <7” annually (Exhibit C) Surficial Aquifer Recharge Capacity: Both Mayr and Berman Trust: 43” to <56” annually (Exhibit C) Wellfield Protection: The closest wellfield protection zone for both the Mayr and Berman Trust parcels is approximately 2 miles to the north. The next closest one is approximately 3 miles northwest. No wellfield protection zones overlap either property (Exhibit C). FEMA Flood map designation: Both the Mayr and Berman Trust parcels are within Flood Zone AH (Exhibit F), which indicates they are subject to inundation of 1-percent- annual-chance flood event where avg. depths are 1-3 feet. Base flood elevation, flood insurance and floodplain management standards apply (i.e., Moderate flooding potential). Statement for satisfaction of criteria: Does the property offer opportunities for protection of water resource values, including aquifer recharge, water quality enhancement, protection of wetland dependent species habitat, and flood control? The Mayr and Berman Trust parcels were considered equal under various maps but may not actually be equal when it comes to wetland protection. The Mayr parcel, at best, appeared to be a seasonal wetland based on existing soils and plant communities. There were some wetland species, there, notably bay and buttonbush, but many of the bays were dead, showing indications of infection by red-bay ambrosia beetles (Xyleborus glabratus) and its lethal fungus associate Raffaelea lauricola, and buttonbush was last seen in 2007, but not seen during the 2018 site visit. The Mayr parcel does contribute moderately to surficial aquifer system recharge at 43” to < 56” annually, though it does not specifically recharge the Lower Tamiami aquifer, which may be joined within the surficial aquifer system at this location. There are no developed properties nearby, so the parcel is likely not contributing to much flood control beyond remaining undeveloped and allowing sheet flow. However, CLIP4 Surface Water Priorities layer maps both parcels as priority 2 out of 5 and both parcels are considered wetlands in the National Wetlands Inventory (USFWS IPaC Information for Planning and Consultation website), which categorizes both parcels as palustrine, or non-tidal, wetlands in an area dominated by woody vegetation. 26.A.4 Packet Pg. 524 Attachment: ISCR-I-75 project 2018 (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio # Berman Trust: 41506800006 Folio # Mayr: 41661080004 Owner Name: I-75 Project – Berman Trust and Mayr Date: February 12, 2018 Page 14 of 51 The Berman Trust parcel has more wetland dependent plant species and contains karst topography, which is a wetland indicator, despite soils that indicate that wetland may be also be seasonal. The mapped recharge rate for the surficial aquifer system is the same as for the Mayr parcel’s, with moderate surficial aquifer recharge mapped and no recharge mapped for the Lower Tamiami aquifer. The Berman parcel has a developed property connected to its eastern edge and may be providing some minor level of flood control for that property, when the karst topography holds some of its seasonal surface waters. Both parcels are providing minimal water quality enhancement beyond accommodating sheet flow into the I-75 canal in their respective locations. 4. Does the property offer significant biological values, including biodiversity, listed species habitat, connectivity, restoration potential and ecological quality? Ord. 2002-63, Sec. 10 (1)(d) YES Listed Plant Species: The federal authority to protect land-based plant species is administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and published in 50 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 23.

No bird rookeries were observed on either parcel. GIS mapped species and habitats: Based on information provided by USFWS, there are no critical habitats on the Mayr and Berman Trust parcels, however, there are 2 mammals and 25 species of migratory and other birds which could potentially use this general area. Mammals include the Florida panther (Puma concolor coryi) and the Florida bonneted bat (Eumops floridanus). Additionally, both the Mayr and Berman Trust parcels are mapped within FWC priority one panther habitat. Panther Telemetry shows that panthers have used the Berman Trust Property as recently as 2014 (Panther #195), but there is no telemetry from the Mayr parcel, and the most recent point near the property was from 2013 (Panther #219 - the same one that was on the SD Corp property and is now deceased (Exhibit N). Both parcels are within mapped consultation and focal area for the Florida bonneted bat and there is appropriate habitat on both parcels. County GIS maps for wood stork colonies and their foraging areas show both parcels to be within 18-miles of foraging areas for known colonies, with the closest one approximately 13 miles to the northeast (Exhibit N). The CLIP4 Biodiversity (Exhibit J) layer maps these parcels as the highest priority (1 out of 5). The CLIP4 Strategic Habitat Conservation Area layer also maps the parcels as being in the highest priority. The Potential Habitat Richness (Exhibit K) layer maps the Mayr parcel as having the potential for 5-6 vertebrate species, and the Berman Trust parcel as having potential for between 5 and 13 vertebrate species, based on the mapped habitat. Non-listed species observed: Mayr: Evidence of nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus) o and pileated woodpecker (Dryocopus pileatus) were observed. Both white-eyed vireo (Vireo griseus) and a red shoulder hawk (Buteo lineatus) were heard calling during the 2007 site visit. No wildlife was observed during the January 2018 site visit but fresh bear scat was seen. Berman Trust: During the 2008 site visit, a red-shouldered hawk (Buteo lineatus) and numerous blue-gray gnatcatchers (Polioptila caerulea) were heard calling. No wildlife was observed during the January 2018 site visit.

If the Mayr parcel is the start of a multi-parcel project and parcels can be acquired to connect it to Gore, the Mayr parcel could add also to the biological values of the Gore project. Panther telemetry shows panther use this area, though the most recent telemetry point on the Mayr parcel was from 2014. Both properties are within the forage area for known wood stork colonies, though the Berman property is too heavily vegetated to be much use for wood stork foraging, and the Mayr parcel did not have ponded wetlands at the time of the visit. The I-75 project properties are within the USFWS Snail Kite Consultation Area and the consultation and focal area for the Florida bonneted bat (Exhibit J). The CLIP4 Biodiversity layer maps the project in a priority one area, as does the CLIP4 Strategic Habitat Conservation Area layer (Exhibit L). The CLIP4 Potential Habitat Richness layer (Exhibit K) shows the Mayr parcel as having the potential for 5-6 vertebrate species, and the Berman Trust parcel as having potential for between 5 and 13 vertebrate species. The CLIP4 Landscape Integrity layer maps the parcels as a priority 3 out of 5 (It carves out the NGGE from Priority 1 lands likely due to its residential zoning status) (Exhibit I). These data show that these parcels can be considered to have biodiversity, listed species habitat and ecological quality, though this is limited in effect if they are acquired individually. There is restoration potential by removal of invasive exotic plant species, however, many neighboring parcels have no requirement to remove exotics and present a significant seed source that would continue to be present making long-term exotic maintenance challenging. The CLIP 4 Aggregated Conservation Priorities layer maps these parcels in a priority one area, as is most of Collier County (Exhibit M). 5. Does the property enhance and/or protect the environmental value of current conservation lands through function as a buffer, ecological link or habitat corridor? Ord. 2002-63, Sec. 10 (1)(e) YES Statement for satisfaction of criteria: The interest in the I-75 project, a “B-List” project began in 2007, and coincides with the proposal for the Gore project, which also was proposed first in 2007. One idea was to accumulate properties at the south side of NGGE just north of I-75, where there were concerns of flooding due to a large proposed pump installation at the Merritt canal, as part of the South Golden Gate Estates restoration (Picaynue Strand Restoration Project). Pumps were installed in 2013 and flooding has not occurred. Another idea for the proposed acquisitions was to connect properties westward across the old 530-acre Harley Davidson Test Track (which has since been acquired by FCA US LLC) with the Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge (FPNWR), providing more panther habitat. In this scenario the Gore holdings (190 acres) are necessary components to provide the size needed to make an impact. Currently, there has been discussion of developing a wildlife corridor utilizing Gore, I-75 and other NGGE parcels just north of I-75 between the FPNWR and North Belle Meade to protect wildlife movement. This idea also incorporates connection benefits from recently developed 26.A.4 Packet Pg. 527 Attachment: ISCR-I-75 project 2018 (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio # Berman Trust: 41506800006 Folio # Mayr: 41661080004 Owner Name: I-75 Project – Berman Trust and Mayr Date: February 12, 2018 Page 17 of 51 wildlife crossing improvements at the Miller and Faka Union canals that connect NGGE with the Picayune Strand State Forest to the south across I-75 (see photo below). Without Gore, and more parcels, individual parcels within the I-75 project do not provide significant connective benefits for conservation. Over 100 acres /60 parcels would need to be acquired to make a minimal connection (see map below for view of possible wildlife corridor between FPNWR and North Belle Meade). With them, assuming more can be acquired, there may be some opportunity. Acquisitions in this location could protect connections to the south across I-75 with the Picayune Strand State Forest (78,000 ac) and various conservation and easement lands to the south, including Rookery Bay (110,000 ac), 10,000 Islands National Wildlife Refuge (35,000 acres), Collier Seminole State Park (7,271 acres), Fakahatchee Strand Preserve State Park (85,000 acres), and Everglades National Park (1,500,000 acres). To the east, across the test track are connections to the Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge (26,400 acres) and Big Cypress National Preserve (729,000 acres). To the northeast are SSA lands, which connect via FPNWR, and to the west are North Belle Meade conservation easement lands. All in all, the potential is to enhance and protect connections to over 2.5 million acres of conserved lands (Figure 3). Is the property within the boundary of another agency’s acquisition project? NO If yes, will use of Conservation Collier funds leverage a significantly higher rank or funding priority for the parcel?

Potential for Appropriate Use and Recommended Site Improvements Potential Uses as Defined in Ordinance No. 2002-67, as amended by Ordinance No. 2007-65, section 5.9: Hiking: Hiking is appropriate for these parcels if trails are built on them. Nature Photography: Nature photography is an appropriate use for both parcels. Bird-watching: Bird watching is an appropriate use for both parcels. Kayaking/Canoeing: There are no water bodies on either parcel, so kayaking and canoeing would not be appropriate uses. Swimming: There are no water bodies on either parcel, so swimming would not be an appropriate use. Hunting: By themselves, the parcels are too small for hunting purposes, and they are within the Golden Gate Estates, where discharge of weapons is prohibited. Fishing: There are no water bodies on either parcel, so fishing would not be an appropriate use. Recommended Site Improvements: No site improvements are recommended for these parcels beyond removal of invasive exotic plants. They are not adjacent to the bulk of the Gore properties, where trails are contemplated. Access: Both parcels are accessible from public roads, though the Berman parcel is accessible from the paved Desoto Blvd., and the Mayr parcel is accessible from a lime rock road (42nd Ave. SE). The Berman Trust parcel is adjacent across Desoto Blvd. from the Gore project and could be easily joined to it. The Mayr parcel is farther east with the Faka-union canal between it and the Gore project. 26.A.4 Packet Pg. 529 Attachment: ISCR-I-75 project 2018 (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio # Berman Trust: 41506800006 Folio # Mayr: 41661080004 Owner Name: I-75 Project – Berman Trust and Mayr Date: February 12, 2018 Page 19 of 51 IV. Assessment of Management Needs and Costs Management of this property will address the costs of exotic vegetation removal and control, and provide an estimate for funding needs for construction of a boardwalk to allow the public to have access to selected portions of the property. The following assessment addresses both the initial and recurring costs of management. These are very preliminary estimates; Ordinance No. 2002-67, as amended by Ordinance No. 2007-65, requires a formal land management plan be developed for each property acquired by Conservation Collier. Exotic, Invasive Plants Present: Exotic, invasive species noted here are taken from the Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council’s (FLEPPC) 2016 List of Invasive Plant Species (Category I and Category II). FLEPPC is an independent incorporated advisory council created to support the management of invasive exotic plants in Florida’s natural areas by providing a forum for exchanging scientific, educational and technical information. Its members come primarily from public educational institutions and governmental agencies. Annual lists of invasive plant species published by this organization are used widely in the state of Florida for regulatory purposes. The current FLEPPC list (2016) can be viewed on-line at http://www.fleppc.org/list/list.htm. Category I plants are those which are altering native plant communities by displacing native species, changing community structures or ecological functions, or hybridizing with natives. This definition does not rely on the economic severity or geographic range of the problem, but on the documented ecological damage caused. Category II invasive exotics have increased in abundance or frequency but have not yet altered Florida plant communities to the extent shown by Category I species. These species may become Category I if ecological damage is demonstrated. Category I and II plants found on this parcel in order of observed abundance: Berman Trust Category I Common Name Scientific Name Brazilian pepper Schinus terebinthifolius Ceasar’s weed Urena lobata Category II Common Name Scientific Name balsam apple Momordica charantia 26.A.4 Packet Pg. 530 Attachment: ISCR-I-75 project 2018 (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio # Berman Trust: 41506800006 Folio # Mayr: 41661080004 Owner Name: I-75 Project – Berman Trust and Mayr Date: February 12, 2018 Page 20 of 51 Mayr Category I Common Name Scientific Name Brazilian pepper Schinus terebinthifolius Ceasar’s weed Urena lobata Category II Common Name Scientific Name shrubby false buttonweed Spermacoce verticillata Staff observations are: Brazilian pepper is the most common invasive exotic plant seen on both parcels. The Berman Trust parcel has a larger percentage of exotic plants present than the Mayr parcel. Exotic Vegetation Removal and Control An estimate of the cost for initial exotic removal and follow-up maintenance was developed by using actual costs for initial exotic removal at the Pepper Ranch Preserve, which has a similar hardwood forest. Based on this estimate, costs for the level of infestation observed to cut and treat the exotics and leave them in place would be $800 per acre. For the Berman Trust parcel, initial exotic removal is expected to cost $1,900, and for the Mayr parcel, the cost is expected to be $5,360. Costs for follow-up maintenance, done anywhere from quarterly to annually have been estimated at $170 per acre, per year for a total of $400 annually for the Berman Trust parcel and a total of $1,200 annually for the Mayr parcel. These costs could decrease over time as the soil seed bank is depleted. Public Parking Facility: Public parking for the Gore project, which would be where visitors would start, is already existing. No parking is contemplated for these parcels. Public Access Trails: No trails are currently existing on these two parcels. There are trails on the Gore project which would be likely used instead of developing new trails. 26.A.4 Packet Pg. 531 Attachment: ISCR-I-75 project 2018 (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio # Berman Trust: 41506800006 Folio # Mayr: 41661080004 Owner Name: I-75 Project – Berman Trust and Mayr Date: February 12, 2018 Page 21 of 51 Security and General Maintenance: Table 2.

Potential for Matching Funds The primary partnering agencies for conservation acquisitions, and those identified in the Conservation Collier ordinance are the Florida Communities Trust (FCT), and The Florida Forever Program. The following highlights potential for partnering funds, as communicated by agency staff: Florida Communities Trust - Parks and Open Space Florida Forever grant program: Application for this program is typically made for pre-acquired sites up to two years from the time of acquisition. The Florida Legislature appropriated $10 million in Florida Forever funding in fiscal year 2016-17 to FCT. Funding has not been awarded for this cycle. There is currently no funding available until the Florida Legislature determines the 2018budget. Florida Forever Program: Staff has been advised that the Florida Forever Program has limited funds and is concentrating on parcels already included on its ranked priority list. This parcel is not inside a Florida Forever priority project boundary. Additionally, the Conservation Collier Program has not been successful in partnering with the Florida Forever Program due to conflicting acquisition policies and issues regarding joint title between the programs. Other Potential Funding Sources: There is potential for utilizing funding donations to the Conservation Collier program to fulfill requirements for off-site preserves pursuant to the Collier County Land Development Code, Section 3.05.07. There is currently approximately $299,400 in this fund, with $91,000 earmarked for multi-parcel project properties whose owners have accepted the County’s offers. 26.A.4 Packet Pg. 533 Attachment: ISCR-I-75 project 2018 (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio # Berman Trust: 41506800006 Folio # Mayr: 41661080004 Owner Name: I-75 Project – Berman Trust and Mayr Date: February 12, 2018 Page 23 of 51 VI. Summary of Secondary Screening Criteria Staff has scored property on the Secondary Criteria Scr eening Form and attached the scoring form as Exhibit H.

Points were achieved because panther telemetry (2014 cat #195) has been located on the property, and because lands between this parcel and the closest conservation lands (Picayune Strand State Forest and Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge) are undeveloped. Human Values/Aesthetics: 61 out of 100 possible points Average points were achieved because the parcel has access from a paved public road (Desoto Blvd), the parcel is small and will offer limited opportunities for nature-based recreation by itself (it was scored based on adding it to the Gore project), and because 9% of the perimeter is visible from a paved public road. Vulnerability: 50 out of 100 possible points An average score was achieved because zoning (Estates) allows for single family development. Management: 60 out of 100 possible points A moderate score was achieved because the parcel will require moderate maintenance and management and circumstances do not favor burning – as it has a hardwood habitat where fire is not typically applied and it has a developed property adjacent. Mayr: Ecological: 43 out of 100 possible points A relatively low ecological score was achieved due to there being only 2 vegetation communities on the parcel, the parcel contributing to the surficial aquifer but not being within a wellfield protection zone, and the parcel having no wetlands onsite but being contiguous with and buffering the I-75 canal. Points were lost because no listed wildlife has been seen or documented on the property, and because lands between this parcel and the closest conservation lands (Picayune Strand State Forest and Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge) are undeveloped. Some points were gained because while only exotic removal is needed, with an infestation estimated at 25%, the parcel can be restored to high ecological function with minimal alteration. 26.A.4 Packet Pg. 535 Attachment: ISCR-I-75 project 2018 (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio # Berman Trust: 41506800006 Folio # Mayr: 41661080004 Owner Name: I-75 Project – Berman Trust and Mayr Date: February 12, 2018 Page 25 of 51 Human Values/Aesthetics: 41 out of 100 possible points Low to average points were achieved because the parcel has access from a public lime (unpaved) road (42nd Ave SE), the parcel is small and will offer limited opportunities for nature-based recreation by itself, and because 14% of the perimeter is visible from a public road. There is a canal between this parcel and the Gore project, so this parcel was scored on its own. Vulnerability: 50 out of 100 possible points An average score was achieved because zoning (Estates) allows for single family development. Management: 73 out of 100 possible points A moderate score was achieved because the parcel will require moderate maintenance and management and circumstances do not favor burning – as it is adjacent to I-75 and smoke management would be a concern. Parcel Size: While parcel size was not scored, the ordinance advises that based on comparative size, the larger of similar parcels is preferred. The Berman parcel is 2.34 acres in size and the similar Mayr parcel is 6.70 acres in size. 26.A.4 Packet Pg. 536 Attachment: ISCR-I-75 project 2018 (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio # Berman Trust: 41506800006 Folio # Mayr: 41661080004 Owner Name: I-75 Project – Berman Trust and Mayr Date: February 12, 2018 Page 26 of 51 Exhibit A.

The Program was active in acquisition between 2003 and 2011, under the terms of the referendum. Between 2011 and 2016, the Program was in management mode. In 2017, the Collier County Board reauthorized Conservation Collier to seek additional lands (2/14/17, Agenda Item 11B). This Initial Criteria Screening Report (ICSR) has been prepared for the Conservation Collier Program in its 9th acquisition cycle to meet requirements specified in the Conservation Collier Implementation Ordinance, 2002-63, as amended, and for purposes of the Conservation Collier Program. It provides objective data to demonstrate how properties meet the criteria defined by the ordinance. That is the sole purpose for this report and it is not meant for any other use. This report makes use of data layers from the Florida Natural Areas Inventory and University of Florida Critical Lands and Waters Identification Project (CLIP4). CLIP4 is a collection of spatial data that identify statewide priorities for a broad range of natural resources in Florida. It was developed through a collaborative effort between the Florida Areas Natural Inventory (FNAI), the University of Florida GeoPlan Center and Center for Landscape Conservation Planning, and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). It is used in the Florida Forever Program to evaluate properties for acquisition. CLIP4 is organized into a set of core natural resource data layers which are representative of 5 resource categories: biodiversity, landscapes, surface water, groundwater and marine. The first 3 categories have also been combined into the Aggregated layer, which identifies 5 priority levels for natural resource conservation. Not all CLIP4 Layers were used in this report. Those used include: • Biodiversity • Surface Water Priorities • Landscape Integrity • Priority Natural Communities • Potential Habitat Richness (Vertebrates) • Strategic Habitat Conservation Areas • Aggregated Conservation Priorities Following the first section, which looks more closely at initial criteria, additional sections address potential for appropriate public use, assessment of management needs and costs, potential for matching funds, and a summary of the secondary screening criteria. 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 565 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 4 of 54 I.

A value of the parcel was estimated using three traditional approaches, cost, income capitalization and sales comparison. Each is based on the principal of substitution that an informed purchaser would pay no more for the rights in acquiring a particular real property than the cost of acquiring, without undue delay, an equally desirable one. Three properties from within 3 miles of this property were selected for comparison, each with similar site characteristics, utility availability, zoning classification and road access. No inspection was made of the property or comparables used in the report and the Real Estate Services Department staff relied upon information provided by program staff. Conclusions are limited only by the reported assumptions and conditions that no other known or unknown adverse conditions exist. Pursuant to the Conservation Collier Purchase Policy, two appraisals are required. Assessed Value: * $2,793,072 Estimated Market Value:** $6,479,000 total rounded value Parcel 1 – 77.99 ac - $4,212,000 - $54,000/ac Parcel 2 – 7.16 ac - $436,760 - $61,000/ac Parcel 3 – 30 ac - $1, 830,000 - $61,000/ac “ESTIMATED MARKET VALUE” IS SOLELY AN ESTIMATE OF VALUE PROVIDED BY COLLIER COUNTY REAL ESTATE SERVICES DEPARTMENT STAFF AND SHOULD NOT BE RELIED UPON BY ANY ENTITY. Zoning, Growth Management and Conservation Overlays Zoning, growth management and conservation overlays will affect the value of a parcel. This parcel is zoned Agriculture and PUD. It is not within an established growth management and/or other type of overlay. The implications for acquisition are that there are no limitations other than state wetland regulations to bar its development and development rights cannot be severed and sold in advance. Easements may also affect the value of a property. A full evaluation of easements will occur if the property is selected for acquisition. Currently known easements include Stormwater easements for 10.9 acres around the northern and eastern portions of the property (Exhibit D). These easements were acquired by the County in 2016 to construct Stormwater improvements to the Wing South/Sandy Lane Interconnect segment of the Lely Area Stormwater Improvement Project (LASIP). They were acquired following an Order of Taking and a payment of $1,715,000, which the County contested but ultimately settled because of the critical nature of the project. These easements will remain in perpetuity. * Property Appraiser’s Website ** Collier County Real Estate Services Department – date of value estimate – December 2017 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 570 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 9 of 54 II. Statement for satisfying Initial Screening Criteria, Including Biological and Hydrological Characteristics The purpose of this section is to provide a closer look at how the property meets initial criteria. Conservation Collier Program staff conducted a brief site visit on November 9, 2017, and a more comprehensive site visit on January 11, 2018. MEETS INITIAL SCREENING CRITERIA- 1. Are any of the following unique and endangered plant communities found on the property? Order of preference as follows: Ord. 2002-63, Sec. 10 (1)(a) Yes i. Hardwood hammocks Some remnant was found, recorded as present by others in 2017 ii. Xeric oak scrub No iii. Coastal strand No iv. Native beach No v. Xeric pine No vi. Riverine Oak No vii. High marsh (saline) No viii. Tidal freshwater marsh No ix. Other native habitats YES Staff used two methods to determine native plant communities present; review of South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) electronic databases for Department of Transportation’s Florida Land Use, Cover and Forms (FLUCCS) (1994/1995) (Exhibit A) and field verification of same. FLUCCS: The 2009 electronic database identified in order of dominance: FLUCCS Acres 4240 – Melaleuca 66 4280 – Cabbage palm 26 4200 – Upland hardwood forest 11 7400 – Disturbed lands 4 6172 – Mixed wetland hardwoods 2 5300 – Reservoirs 1 The following native plant communities were observed in order of dominance: FLUCCS 6240 – Pine/Cypress 6170 - Mixed wetland hardwoods 4280 – Cabbage palm 6210 – Cypress 6417 – Freshwater marsh/shrubs, brush & vines 6180 - Willow All portions of the site were heavily invaded by exotic plant species. Some areas at approx. 25% and some as much as 75-100%. Parcel 1 is about 85% melaleuca. 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 571 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 10 of 54 An environmental assessment done in March 2017 found small areas of pine flatwoods, tropical hardwoods, live oak, and hydric pine in addition to the ones noted above. An Archeological Assessment done also in 2017 notes the presence of hardwood hammock. These habitat types were not seen by staff during the site visit, possibly because t hey are small areas or were in areas not visited. The south side of parcel 3 has several tropical understory species as a component along with significant amounts of exotic and escaped landscape plants, and a large gumbo limbo that had been recently felled by Hurricane Irma. There may have been a more intact tropical hardwood habitat here at one time, but it possibly has been invaded so significantly, that only some of the shrubs and ground-cover component species remain. Because tropical plants were seen and a recent survey found tropical hardwood habitat, points were awarded. Characterization of Plant Communities present: Parcel 1 Ground Cover: Ground cover consisted of scattered native and exotic species. Natives included Saw grass (Cladium jamaicense), wild coffee (both Psychotria nervosa and P. sulznerii), young cabbage palm (Sabal palmetto), wax myrtle (Myrica cerifera), butterfly bush (Hamelia patens), young slash pines (Pinus elliottii), gulf croton (Croton puncatatus), myrsine (Myrsine cubana), swamp fern (Blechnum serrulatum), royal fern (Osmunda regalis), salt bush (Baccharis halimifolia), white top sedge (Dychromena colorata), wood fern (Thelypteris sp.), goldenrod (Solidago sp.) and marsh pink (Sabatia stellaris). Parcel 1 is heavily invaded by the following invasive exotic plant species: Melaleuca (Melaleuca quinquinerva), Earleaf acacia (Acacia auriculiformis), Brazilian pepper (Schinus terebinthifolius), old world climbing fern (Lygodium microphyllum), and snake plant (Sansevaria sp.). Midstory: The Midstory is sparse but includes scattered wax myrtle, myrsine, and the occasional landscape palm. Canopy: The canopy in parcel 1 contains primarily Melaleuca, but also Earleaf acacia along with scattered slash pines. Parcel 2 Ground Cover: Parcel 2 contains large depressional areas. One of these depressional areas was visited. It contains primarily smartweed (Polygonum sp.), an obligate wetland (OBL) species, with clearweed (Pilea sp.), a facultative wetland (FW) plant, at the edges. The groundcover in these areas probably changes annually based on water levels. In non- depressional areas the groundcover was characterized by swamp fern. Midstory: The Midstory in parcel 2 contained willow (Salix caroliniana) which encircles the depressional area, with myrsine, wax myrtle, buttonbush (Cephalanthus occidentalis), and salt bush surrounding. 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 572 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 11 of 54 Canopy: There was no canopy in the depressional areas, but surrounding this area were slash pines and cypress (Taxodium distichum) with melaleuca also a major component. A royal palm (Roystonea regia) was observed here. Parcel 3 Ground Cover: Parcel 3 had several different areas. FLUCCS codes identified it as a cabbage palm habitat, and there were numerous cabbage palms, particularly on the southern side. But it appeared that cabbage palms may have invaded the site, and that the original habitat may have been more tropical in nature. One tropical groundcover plant observed was indigo berry (Randia aculeata). Other ground cover species noted were swamp fern, Chain fern (Woodwardia sp.), Wood fern (Thelypteris sp.), Southern shield fern (Dryopteris sp.), Thoroughwart (Eupatorium sp.), Camphor-weed (Pluchea sp.), Beggarticks (Bidens alba), butterfly bush, wild coffee (both species) and saw grass (Cladium jamaicense). Farther west, groundcovers included scattered strap fern (Campyloneurum phyllitidis) and false nettle (Boehmeria cylindrica). Water lettuce (Pistia stratioides) covered the surface of a small depressional pond. Th south side of parcel 3 is heavily invaded by landscape and other exotic plants. Among the swamp fern, maiden fern, butterfly bush, wild coffee and indigo berry were large patches of wandering jew (Trascadentia sp.), arrowhead (Syngonium podophyllum), Ceasar’s weed (Urena lobata), bitter melon (Momordica charantia) and Surinam cherry (Eugenia uniflora). Midstory: It was in the midstory on the southern side of Parcel 3 that a tropical component was most noted, with red stopper (Eugenia rhombia) and marlberry (Ardiaia escallonioides) being significant components. Fire bush, Pokeweed (Phytolacca Americana) and Yellow elder (Tecoma stans) (a non-native tropical) were also present. Farther west, the habitat appears more like a seasonal wetland, with Dahoon holly (Ilex cassine), Bay (Persea sp.), Hog plum (Ximenia americana) and willow present as major midstory components. There were significant exotic species present in the midstory, here, including Java plum (Syzygium cumini), Brazillian pepper. Earleaf acacia, Melaleuca, Air potato (Dioscorea bulbifera), and umbrella tree (Scheffelera actinophylla). Canopy: On the southeastern side of parcel 3 the canopy was primarily cabbage palms and Melaleuca, with natives scattered among them, including strangler fig (Ficus aurea), Laurel oak (Quercus virginiana), and Bay. Farther west, the canopy included more cypress and small depressional areas of popash (Fraxinus caroliniana). The canopy in the northern part of parcel 3 appeared to be a mixture of slash pines, laurel oaks, cypress and melaleuca. A downed gumbo limbo (Bursera simaruba) was noted on the south side. There are likely seedlings existing though the vegetation was very thick and none were specifically noted. A royal palm was observed. Statement for satisfaction of criteria: These data indicate that remnants of native habitats remain on the parcels, even though they are severely invaded by exotic plants. Wetlands appear more intact than uplands, with the large mesic areas appearing the most invaded, primarily with melaleuca, but also with many other invasive plant species. Young pines 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 573 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 12 of 54 were observed growing in heavily invaded areas, so a native seed bank still exists. The entire area appeared to be drying slightly, as evidenced by moss growing at the base of some cypress and even on cypress knees, where water lines indicated that water had, in past times, covered the landscape at about 16-18 inches during wet season. There were some very large cypress trees on the western side of Parcel 3. In cypress and popash ponds, native orchids (Encyclia tampensis) were observed in the trees. A 2017 Environmental Assessment and Archeological Assessment both recorded hardwood hammock habitat, though it was not seen by staff during the site visit as staff did not visit all areas. These data suggest that native habitats are present even though severely impacted, so this criterion was met. 2. Does land offer significant human social values, such as equitable geographic distribution, appropriate access for nature-based recreation, and enhancement of the aesthetic setting of Collier County? Ord. 2002-63, Sec. 10 (1)(b) YES Statement for satisfaction of criteria: These parcels are located within the urban area (as identified on the 2012-25 Future Land Use Map) with residential lands surrounding them. They are approximately 6 miles from the closest Conservation Collier Preserve (Gordon River Greenway), but adjacent to a 100-acre public preserve area (Serenity Park). There is paved public road access to several areas of the properties from Whitaker Road, Adkins Ave, Polly Ave., and Everett St, where a small parking area could be developed. There are no developed trails on the property, but aerials from earlier years show Parcel 1 has several trails that could be re-established and used for hiking along with the LASIP easement area that borders the parcels on the east side. Downed trees from Hurricane Irma throughout present an obstacle for trail development. A cultural assessment was performed on the site in March/April 2017 by The Archeological and Historic Conservancy, Inc., which explored a midden site previously recorded on the south side of parcel 3, and found a new site, also on the south side of Parcel 3, that was characterized as a black earth midden. Therefore, there are archeological resources on the property that can be protected. 3. Does the property offer opportunities for protection of water resource values, including aquifer recharge, water quality enhancement, protection of wetland dependent species habitat, and flood control? Ord. 2002-63, Sec. 10 (1)(c) General Hydrologic Characteristics observed and description of adjacent upland /wetland buffers: The property is situated between 8 and 10.5 feet in elevation (Exhibit G). Soils in some areas (mostly in parcels 2 and 3) appeared dark and organic, like they have been submerged. Cypress knees were observed in Parcel 3, along with watermarks on trunks indicating that at some time in the past the area was submerged between 16 and 18 inches, but that had not happened in recent years, as moss was growing on the cypress trunks and knees all the way down to the soil. One shallow depressional area in parcel 2 was already dried out, while other depressional areas farther south and west appeared to potentially hold water year round, based on plant species observed. Upland buffers were severely impacted by invasive exotic plant species. The National Wetlands Inventory classifies these parcels as palustrine (or non-tidal) wetlands with upright herbaceous 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 574 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 13 of 54 vegetation in a “persistent” (or normally remaining standing until the next growing season) growth pattern, or forested with a semi permanently flooded water regime, and a notation that they are partially drained/ditched (USFWS IPaC Planning and Consultation website, http://ecos.fws.gov.ipac). A 1940’s aerial (Collier County Appraiser) shows this parcel to be part of a significant cypress flow way (Exhibit E). Wetland dependent plant species (OBL/ FACW) observed: OBL FACW Cypress (Taxodium distichum) Rose gentian (Sabatia stellaris) Bay (Persea sp.) Chain fern (Woodwardia sp.) False nettle (Boehmeria cylindrica) Wood fern (Thelypteris sp.) Pop ash (Fraxinus caroliniana) Southern Shield fern (Dryopteris sp.) Royal fern (Osmunda regalis) White-top sedge (Dichromena colorata) Bay (Persea sp.) Clearweed (Pilea asp.) Smartweed (Polygonum sp.) Laurel oak (Quercus laurifolia) Willow (Salix sp.) Royal palm (Roystonea elata) Goldenrod (Solidago sp.) Wetland dependent wildlife species observed: A few species of wetland dependent wildlife were observed, including little blue heron (Egretta caerula), great egret (Casmerodius albus) Killdeer (Charadrius vociferous) and a banded water snake (Nerodia fasciata pictiventris), though it may have been dead. These were observed on parcel 1 in the LASIP canal. Soils: Soils data is based on the Soil Survey of Collier County Area, Florida (USDA/NRCS, 1990). Soils included, in order of dominance: Soil Number and Name Acres Soil Type 14 Pineda fine sand, Limestone substratum 82 Hydric, slough 31 Hilolo, Jupiter, and Margate fine sands 15 Hydric 25 Boca, Rivera, Limestone substratum, Copeland FS 8 Hydric, depressional 21 Boca fine sand 5 Upland – seasonally wet 11 Hallendale fine sand 4 Upland – seasonally wet Aquifer recharge Potential: Aquifer recharge map data was developed by Fairbank, P. and S. Hohner in 1995 and published as Mapping recharge (infiltration and leakage) throughout the South Florida Water Management District, Technical publication 95-20 (DRE # 327), South Florida Water Management District, West Palm Beach, Florida. Most people in Collier County get their drinking water from the surficial aquifer, but many also have wells to the Lower Tamiami aquifer, a slightly deeper aquifer. This property lies within the Rookery Bay watershed, with groundwater flowing from the north east to the southwest (Exhibit H). Lower Tamiami recharge Capacity: The mapped Lower Tamiami aquifer recharge is -16” to -1” annually. These parcels are well inside of this mapped area which suggests that in this area the Lower Tamiami aquifer has no confining layer between it and the surficial aquifer system (Exhibit C). Protection of this site in an undeveloped state will help to protect the Lower Tamiami aquifer. 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 575 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 14 of 54 Surficial Aquifer Recharge Capacity: The mapped surficial aquifer recharge for these parcels is 31” to <43” annually. They lie near the edge of the mapped area, with the nearby zone mapped at 43” to < 56” annually. These parcels contribute moderately to significantly to the surficial aquifer (Exhibit C). Wellfield Protection: The closest wellfield and wellfield protection zones are 1.5 miles to the south. There is also wellfield 3 miles to the north east and one 5 miles to the northwest. This property does not intersect any of the wellfield protection zones (Exhibit C). FEMA Flood map designation: The property is currently within Flood Zone AH, with small areas of AE mapped where in deeper pockets (Exhibit F). The AH zone designation indicates the property is subject to inundation of by the 1-percent-annual-chance flood event where average depths are 1-3 feet, and where base flood elevations, flood insurance and floodplain management standards apply. Deeper wetland areas are within the AE zone which indicates areas subject to inundation by the 1-percent-annual-chance flood event, with depths not defined. Base flood elevations, mandatory flood insurance and floodplain management standards apply here as well. Statement for satisfaction of criteria: These properties are primarily wetlands (92%), with small areas of uplands (18%), based on mapped soils and vegetation observed onsite. The parcels are classified as Palustrine non-tidal wetlands and semi-permanently flooded by the National Wetlands Inventory (Exhibit H). SFWMD aquifer recharge maps identify these parcels as not contributing to recharge of the Lower Tamiami aquifer, but contributing moderately to recharge of the surficial aquifer. The parcels lie within the Rookery Bay Watershed, which flows from the northeast to the southwest, but are not adjacent to the main canal system that shuttles water to the coastal areas. They may, however, contribute in a minor way to water quality in the Rookery Bay area by remaining undeveloped and allowing sheet flow. The wetland habitats, while existing on the parcel, are severely impacted by invasive exotic plants and may not be providing significant wetland dependent species habitat; however, ponded areas and the LASIP water management system provide habitat for wading bird species. Likewise, the ponded areas along with the LASIP water management system are providing flood control for surrounding residential properties. The LASIP canal was also designed with a weir that protects the groundwater levels in adjacent properties such as this one so they don’t dry out (Pers. Comm. Robert Wiley, Project Manager, Collier County GMD, January 29, 2018). 4.

Lists of protected wildlife can be viewed on-line at: https://www.fws.gov/endangered/. FWC maintains the Florida state list of protected wildlife in accordance with Rules 68A-27.003, 68A-27.004, and 68A-27.005, respectively, of the Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.). A list of protected Florida wildlife species can be viewed at: http://myfwc.com/wildlifehabitats/imperiled/profiles/. One listed bird species was observed during the January 11, 2018 site visit within the LASIP canal - Little blue heron (Egretta caerulea). Bird Rookery observed? No bird rookery was observed. GIS mapped species and habitats: Based on information provided by USFWS, there are no critical habitats at this location, however, there are 2 mammals and 25 species of migratory and other birds which could potentially use this site. Mammals include the Florida panther (Puma cncolor coryi) and the Florida bonneted bat (Eumops floridanus). The CLIP4 biodiversity Map shows 30 or so panther telemetry points from 2013 and 2015 on or near the property, and east of CR 951, that are the same panther (#219), however that panther is known to have been killed in a vehicle collision in 2015 (Personal comm. Darrell Land, FWC, January 2018). This project is not within primary panther habitat but primary habitat is approximately 1 mile to the east, across CR 951. USFWS may consider the site as suitable panther habitat based on past telemetry showing panther presence on the site 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 577 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 16 of 54 and an intact ecological link through Serenity par k to CR 951. The project is also within the USFWS consultation area for the Florida bonneted bat. No bats were observed onsite but the habitat is appropriate for bat roosting and foraging. A known wood stork (Mycteria Americana) colony exists within 18.6 miles, placing this site within the core foraging area for wood storks. Additionally, the site is located just under 1 mile from the closest known red cockaded woodpecker (RCW) colony and contains habitats suitable for RCW foraging (Exhibit O). Finally, there is the potential for presence of 25 bird species that are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Golden and Bald Eagle Protection Act. These include Bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephala), Black whiskered vireo (Vireo altiloquus), and Red headed woodpecker (Melanerpes erythrocephalus). Non-listed species observed: The following non-listed species were observed during the January 11, 2018 site visit: Red bellied woodpecker (Melanerpes carolinus), grey catbird (Dumetella caroliniensis), red-tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis), belted kingfisher (Ceryle alcyon), killdeer (Charadrius vociferous), banded water snake (Nerodia fasciata pictiventris), eastern phoebe (Sayornis phoebe), blue-grey gnatcatcher (Polioptila caerulea), great egret (Casmerodius albus) and several monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus). Cabbage palms on the south side of parcel 3 had multiple woodpecker holes in them, but no birds were seen entering or leaving. An eastern kingbird (Tyrannus tyrannus) was observed during the November 9, 2017 site visit.

The CLIP4 Potential Habitat Richness layer (Exhibit L) identifies this property has potentially supporting 5-6 vertebrate species. The CLIP4 Biodiversity layer shows this are to be a priority 2 out of 5, with Priority One panther habitat just 1 mile to the east across CR 951 (Exhibit K). Panther telemetry data through 2016 added to this map shows that the site was used by one panther between 2013 and 2015. That panther is no longer living, but it shows the habitat is acceptable for use. The parcel is also near known RCW colonies, within the core foraging area for a wood stork colony, and within the consultation area for the Florida bonneted bat, all listed species (Exhibit O). The parcels connect with the 99-acre Serenity Park conservation area and another 170 acres of South Florida Water Management District Conservation Easements on the north and east sides (Figure 3). Restoration may be challenging and costly. Exotic plant removal and downed tree removal will be the primary needs for restoration, but 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 578 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 17 of 54 supplemental plantings may be necessary in areas that are currently solid melaleuca. The ecological quality is relatively low at present, but with active habitat management it could be much higher. 5. Does the property enhance and/or protect the environmental value of current conservation lands through function as a buffer, ecological link or habitat corridor? Ord. 2002-63, Sec. 10 (1)(e) YES Statement for satisfaction of criteria: The property is adjacent on its north and east sides with SFWMD Conservation Easements, including the 99-acre public Serenity Park. The Surrounding Lands Aerial map (Figure 3) shows that there is an ecological connection, although it crosses CR 951, with the Picayune Strand State Forest. The CLIP4 Landscape Integrity layer (Exhibit I) shows these properties to be in a lower priority area (3 and 4 on a scale of 1- 10), however FWC Florida panther telemetry indicates that there is an ecological connection for panthers coming from lands east of CR 951 (Exhibit K), because cat #219 was found on both sides of CR 951. The CLIP4 Strategic Habitat Conservation Area map (Exhibit M) identifies the properties as a priority 2 area that is directly connected to a priority 1 area. The CLIP4 Aggregated Conservation Priorities classifies the properties as a priority 2, out of 1-5 categories (Exhibit N). Is the property within the boundary of another agency’s acquisition project? NO If yes, will use of Conservation Collier funds leverage a significantly higher rank or funding priority for the parcel?

Potential for Appropriate Use and Recommended Site Improvements Potential Uses as Defined in Ordinance No. 2002-67, as amended by Ordinance No. 2007-65, section 5.9: Hiking: Hiking would be an appropriate use for this property. Historic trails can be reopened or new trails developed but they may not be usable in wet season. Visitors could also hike the perimeter along the mowed Lely water management easement. Nature Photography: This would be an appropriate use. Bird-watching: This would be an appropriate use. Kayaking/Canoeing: Canoeing or kayaking could occur on the 1-acre lake on parcel 1, though it may be too small for realistic use. Canoes/kayaks would not be permitted in the Lely water management easement canals as it is too small for recreational use. Swimming: The excavated pond and isolated wetlands would not be appropriate for swimming due to the potential presence of alligators and venomous snakes. Hunting: This property is too small and close to the urban area for hunting to be a realistic use. Fishing: Fishing could be an appropriate use at the 1-acre excavated lake. Recommended Site Improvements: Access improvement, parking area and trails through parcels 1, 2 and 3. Access: The parcels have access from paved public roads at 4 points: along Polly Ave., including the north side of Polly, the south side of Polly, at the intersections of Polly Ave. and Whitaker Road, the eastern end of Adkins Ave, and at the eastern end of Everett St . The most likely access point is at the end of Adkins Ave. 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 580 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 19 of 54 IV. Assessment of Management Needs and Costs Management of this property will address the costs of exotic vegetation removal and control, and provide an estimate for funding needs for construction of a boardwalk to allow the public to have access to selected portions of the property. The following assessment addresses both the initial and recurring costs of management. These are very preliminary estimates; Ordinance No. 2002-67, as amended by Ordinance No. 2007-65, requires a formal land management plan be developed for each property acquired by Conservation Collier. Exotic, Invasive Plants Present: Exotic, invasive species noted here are taken from the Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council’s (FLEPPC) 2017 List of Invasive Plant Species (Category I and Category II). FLEPPC is an independent incorporated advisory council created to support the management of invasive exotic plants in Florida’s natural areas by providing a forum for exchanging scientific, educational and technical information. Its members come primarily from public educational institutions and governmental agencies. Annual lists of invasive plant species published by this organization are used widely in the state of Florida for regulatory purposes. The current FLEPPC list (2017) can be viewed on-line at http://www.fleppc.org/list/list.htm. Category I plants are those which are altering native plant communities by displacing native species, changing community structures or ecological functions, or hybridizing with natives. This definition does not rely on the economic severity or geographic range of the problem, but on the documented ecological damage caused. Category II invasive exotics have increased in abundance or frequency but have not yet altered Florida plant communities to the extent shown by Category I species. These species may become Category I if ecological damage is demonstrated. Category I and II plants found on this parcel in order of observed abundance: Category I Common Name Scientific Name Melaleuca Melaleuca quinquinerva Brazilian pepper Schinus terebinthifolius Earleaf acacia Acacia auriculiformis Java plum Sysygium cumini Bishopwood Bischofia javanica Caesar’s weed Urena lobata Air potato Dioscorea bulbifera Rosary pea Abrus precatorius Old world climbing fern Lygodium microphyllum Surinam cherry Eugenia uniflora Arrowhead vine Syngonium podophyllum Umbrella tree Scheffelera actinophylla Wild taro Colocasia escuelenta 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 581 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 20 of 54 Category II Common Name Scientific Name Bitter melon (Momordica charantia) Staff observations are: Melaleuca is the most common exotic plant species and parcel 1 is mostly melaleuca. Parcels 2 and 3 also have large stands of melaleuca. Melaleuca can displace native plant communities and associated wildlife, disturb natural water flow, and alter soil conditions. Additionally, Melaleuca can have a strong negative impact on migrating bird species and render habitats no longer suitable for wood storks and Florida panthers, two species that could utilize this property. There is also significant Brazilian pepper, including large and well-established plants, along with many other FLEPPC category 1 exotic species. Exotic removal will be costly and challenging, as this is considered a wetland and machinery will likely not be allowed. One of the concerns will be getting biomass from exotics off the property or reduced. Large stands of melaleuca can present concerns for fire, as these plants contain volatile oils. Melaleuca can be removed from edges of the property and cut, sprayed and stacked in the interior per SFWMD guidelines (removal within 100 ft. of perimeter and stacking in interior areas). Exotic Vegetation Removal and Control An estimate of the cost for initial exotic removal and follow-up maintenance was developed by averaging costs for removing thick melaleuca infestations on two Conservation Collier preserves (Alligator Flag and Logan Woods), which cost, respectively, $1,700/ac and $5,000/ac. The value derived is $3,350/ac. Based on this estimate, costs for the level of infestation observed to treat exotics, remove plants on the perimeter and cut, spray and stack in the interior would be $382,000. Costs for follow-up maintenance, done anywhere from quarterly to annually have been estimated in the same way (using averaged actual costs from Alligator Flag Preserve and Logan Woods Preserve) at $115/ac for a total of $13,100 annually for 114 acres. These costs could decrease over time as the soil seed bank is depleted. Public Parking Facility: The cost of design and construction of a shell or gravel parking lot to accommodate approximately 5 cars would be approximately $25,000. Additional costs would include design, permitting and any required land clearing. Public Access Trails: Trails are evident on aerial photographs from the early 2000’s. These could be re-cleared and contribute to a new trail system beginning at the Adkins Ave. entrance where a small parking area could be developed. Hikers could access portions of all parcels from this parking area. Clearing for trails would cost approximately $775/mile. A 1.5-mile trail as shown in Figure 2 would cost approximately $1,200 to install and about half that to maintain, or $390/mile at $600 for each maintenance event. 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 582 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 21 of 54 Security and General Maintenance: Table 2.

Potential for Matching Funds The primary partnering agencies for conservation acquisitions, and those identified in the Conservation Collier ordinance are the Florida Communities Trust (FCT), and The Florida Forever Program. The following highlights potential for partnering funds, as communicated by agency staff: Florida Communities Trust - Parks and Open Space Florida Forever grant program: Application for this program is typically made for pre-acquired sites up to two years from the time of acquisition. The Florida Legislature appropriated $10 million in Florida Forever funding in fiscal year 2016-17 to FCT. Funding has not been awarded for this cycle. There is currently no funding available until the Florida Legislature determines the 2017-18 budget. Florida Forever Program: Staff has been advised that the Florida Forever Program has limited funds and is concentrating on parcels already included on its ranked priority list. This parcel is not inside a Florida Forever priority project boundary. Additionally, the Conservation Collier Program has not been successful in partnering with the Florida Forever Program due to conflicting acquisition policies and issues regarding joint title between the programs. Other Potential Funding Sources: There is potential for utilizing funding donations to the Conservation Collier program to fulfill requirements for off-site preserves pursuant to the Collier County Land Development Code, Section 3.05.07. There is currently approximately $299,400 in this fund, with $91,000 earmarked for multi-parcel project properties whose owners have accepted the County’s offers. 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 584 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 23 of 54 VI.

First is the presence of tropical hardwood hammock habitat, a preferred ordinance habitat along with 6 other native habitat types that were observed. The property can be considered to protect wetland resources as it contributes to the surficial aquifer, and contains 92% wetland soils with 82 acres of slough soils and 8 acres of depressional soils with obligate wetland plant species noted. Numerous hydrologic indicators were also observed. Points were gained because the property is contiguous with Serenity Park and an intact, though separated by CR 951, ecological link with FWC Priority One panther habitat. Points were lost due to the significant exotic plant presence. Human Values/Aesthetics: 65 out of 100 possible points A moderate score was achieved overall. This property is quite accessible for public use and could be used for hiking, nature photography, fishing and education. Points were lost because the uses are primarily terrestrial except for one small 1-acre pond that could be used for fishing. Vulnerability: 75 out of 100 possible points Vulnerability of this parcel is scored as moderate to high, because even though a portion of the property has been rezoned as Planned Unit Development (PUD), there are significant access issues that bar its development for multi-family residential uses. Management: 50 out of 100 possible points The property scored moderately in the management category due to the significant infestation with exotic plant species, difficulty in removal and presence of some dumping, including an old boat. It gained points because no hydrologic changes are anticipated. Parcel Size: While parcel size was not scored, the ordinance advises that based on comparative size, the larger of similar parcels is preferred. This parcel is like the 400-acre Barron Collier Partnership LLLP Sanitation /Bethune proposal, as it is urban, of substantial size and significantly impacted by exotic plant species. 26.A.5 Packet Pg. 586 Attachment: ISCR-SD Corp of Naples Agenda Item V.A (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) Initial Criteria Screening Report Folio #: 00418640007, 00425920008, 00419160007 Owner Name: SD Corp of Naples, Inc. and Cypress Landings II of Naples, LLC Date: February 12, 2018 Page 25 of 54 Exhibit A.

CCLAAC – Wallace-Konkler-Frauendorfer (WH 1.14 acres) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Approve an Agreement for Sale and Purchase for 1.14 acres within the Winchester Head Multi- parcel Project under the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Program, at a cost not to exceed $14,800 (Wallace-Konkler-Frauendorfer). OBJECTIVE: Request approval of the attached Agreement for Sale and Purchase (Agreement) between the Board of County Commissioners (Board) and Janet L. Wallace, Kevin L. Konkler and Linda K. Frauendorfer formerly known as Linda K. Blake, all as tenants in common (Sellers). CONSIDERATIONS: On January 25, 2005, Agenda Item 10D, the Board approved a Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Advisory Committee (CCLAAC) recommended Cycle II - Active Acquisition List, (AAL) with changes, and directed staff to actively pursue acquisition of the properties under the Conservation Collier Program. A multi-parcel project included on the Cycle II – AAL was a portion of Unit 65 in Golden Gate Estates (Winchester Head Multi-parcel Project). Staff has actively pursued acquiring parcels within Unit 65. However, on September 13, 2005, Agenda Item 16 A 34, the Board accepted CCLAAC’s recommendation to, due to rising property costs, discontinue buying properties for the Winchester Head Multi-parcel Project for 90 days. On February 14, 2006, Agenda Item 10A, the Board approved placing the Winchester Head Multi-parcel Project on the “B” list of the Cycle III – AAL, and on January 23, 2007, Agenda Item 10A, the Board approved the Cycle IV – AAL, once again placing the Multi-parcel Project on the “B” list. On May 22, 2007, Agenda Item 10F, the Board approved activating the Winchester Head Multi-parcel Project, with conditions, and it was placed on the “A” list on the current AAL. On January 25, 2011, Agenda Item 10B, the Board accepted CCLAAC’s recommended Cycle 8 AAL, placing Winchester Head Multi-parcel Project on the “A” list. On December 13, 2016, the Board reauthorized the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition program. On August 14, 2017, the CCLAAC recommended staff to make offers to interested property owners within the Winchester Head Multi-parcel Project. The Winchester Head Multi-parcel Project consists of 116 parcels and a total of 159.81 acres. To date, Conservation Collier has acquired 59 parcels for a total of 82.40 acres, and the Collier Soil and Water Conservation District has acquired 2 parcels totaling 2.28 acres. Staff contracted with two independent, state-certified, general real estate appraisal firms to appraise all parcels within the Project. The appraisers based their analyses on comparable sales from wetland, not upland parcels, preferably within the Project boundaries. The appraisals dated July 2017 provided an averaged appraised value for parcels within the Project at $12,500 an acre. On October 9, 2017, the CCLAAC recommended extending offers to owners who sent in applications in the Project. The cost to obtain new appraisals is $4,900. The Sellers’ property contains a total of 1.14 acres and is located within the Winchester Head Multi- parcel Project. The land cost for the 1.14 acre parcel is $14,250. The Property Appraiser’s 2017 Preliminary Tax Roll assessed value for this property is $7,739. The attached Agreement provides that should the County elect not to close this transaction for any reason, except for default by the Sellers, the County will pay the Sellers $71.25 in liquidated damages. Pursuant to Ordinance 2007-65, Section 13(8), a Project Design Report for the property is provided herewith. 26.A.6 Packet Pg. 617 Attachment: Wallace ES-Agreement Agenda Item V.C (4935 : Conservation Collier LAAC - February 12, 2018) CCLAAC February 12, 2018 Agenda Item V.C. CCLAAC – Wallace-Konkler-Frauendorfer (WH 1.14 acres) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Conservation Collier – Wallace-Konkler-Frauendorfer (WH-1.14 acres) Page 2 FISCAL IMPACT: The total cost of acquisition will not exceed $14,800 ($14,250 for the property and approximately $550 for the title commitment, title policy, and recording of documents). The funds will be withdrawn from the Conservation Collier Trust Fund (172). As of February 12, 2018, property costs for Conservation Collier properties, including this property and those under contract, total $104,378,042. Estimated costs of maintenance in perpetuity have been considered by the CCLAAC and have been 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 CCLAAC: 1. Approve the attached Agreement; and 2. Recommend to the Board approval and authorization for the Chairman to execute the Agreement on behalf of the Board. PREPARED BY: Cindy M.

CONSIDERATIONS: On January 27, 2004, Agenda Item 10A, the Board approved a Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Advisory Committee (CCLAAC) recommended Active Acquisition List (AAL), with changes, and directed staff to actively pursue acquisition of the properties unde r the Conservation Collier Program. On June 22, 2004, Agenda Item 16A2, the Board confirmed their direction to staff authorizing staff to proceed with purchase contracts for Golden Gate Estates, Unit 53 Multi Parcel Project now known as the Red Maple Swamp Preserve Multi-parcel Project (Project), properties as they become available and to bring these contracts back to the Board for final approval. On September 26, 2006, Agenda Item 10G, the Board directed staff to discontinue buying properties within the Project due to rising property costs.

On January 25, 2011, Agenda Item 10B, the Board accepted CCLAAC’s recommended Cycle 8 AAL, placing the Project on the “A” list. On December 13, 2016, the Board reauthorized the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition program.

The Red Maple Swamp Preserve Multi-parcel Project consists of 108 parcels and a total of 305.69 acres. To date, Conservation Collier has acquired 74 parcels consisting of a total of 207.70 acres. Staff contracted with two independent, state-certified, general real estate appraisers to appraise all parcels within the Project.

The Seller’s property contains 1.14 acres and is located within the Project, also known in the Conservation Collier Program as the Red Maple Swamp Preserve. The land cost for the 1.14 acre parcel is $6,555. The attached Agreement provides that should the County elect not to close this transaction for any reason, except for default by the Seller, the County will pay the Seller $32.78 in liquidated damages. Pursuant to Ordinance 2007-65, Section 13(8), a Project Design Report for the property is provided herewith. FISCAL IMPACT: The total cost of acquisition will not exceed $7,100 ($6,555 for the property and approximately $545 for the title commitment, title policy, and recording of documents). The funds will be withdrawn from the Conservation Collier Trust Fund (172).
