recommends approval.
4. Staff recommendation to add to section 8 - Prohibited uses in
Residcntial Districts: The following animals are to be
considered farm animals and Drc not permitted to be kept in
residcntial areas: turkeY3, chickens, ducks, geese, pigs,
horses, cows, goats, hogs and the like. This item was not
brought up before either Commission.
Responding to Commission~r ristor's question, Ms. Kirchhoff
explained that hospitals, hospices and sanatoriums arc placed back in
-C-l, 3, 4, , 5R Districts and said uses will be placed in the eSsen-
tial service section as a provisional use if they arc not allowed as Ð
principal use in ð district.
Responding to Chairman Wimer, Ms. Kirchhoff explained that sta(!
can come back with final rccommp.ndations at the next public hearing if
the DCC feels they can make a decision on itcms wherc there arc (,is-
crepancics.
Ms. ~irchhoff explained th~t staff r~i~cd for discu~~ion a memo
conccrning agriculturûl and non-agriculture uscs in agriculture areas,
and that staff has bccome aware that the County Manager under~tands
that the agricultural district would be revised to require provisional
U505 for non-agricultural uses in agriculturally zoncd areas. She
stated that a retail nursery is the only use sta[f has found which is
not a true agriculturûl use, and, ~t thc prosent tim~, that is allowod
as a permitted use. She stated that the memo sugg~sts that use be a
provisional use rather than a prln~ipal use.
Hearing no questions from the Commissioners, Chairman Wimer
explainod th~t the BCC would hear from the public regarding the Zoning
Regulations and, at this point in the meeting, that the BCC would not
address said Regulations as they apply to a particular piece of land.

Incoming Prcsident of the Naples Area Board of pealtors (N~ßR) Jim
.
!
Smith explained that said Board has tried to be a source of diöfomi-
¡
.
nating information to the public re the proposed changes becaus~ of the
industry contact with the public. He expressed appreciation to~staff
for their cooperation and assistance durinq thc entire process óf
i
gathering information for the public re the zoning changes. Ho ðßked
¡
the Commissioners to considcr if thc proposed changes serve the 'inter-
est and welfarc of thc public, which is the basis for the polico power
of zoning in this Country. lie pointed out the following changes. for
which the NABR does not sp.~ ðny establishcd public need:
1. The ·GRC· cla5sific.1tlon seems to bc c!! step backwards; In
1974 Collier County "got away from" the system of h~ving ð
multitude of cl~fisif1c~tions wlthin tho gencral umbrclla of
·commercial", that it is difficult to anticipðtc housi~g
needs twenty years In the future, that only commercial use
nceds to be outlined, ~nd that later each plan can bo
ex~mined on ~n individual basis. :
2. A reduction In den9ity of .22 units pcr acrc in the "RMF-6-
c~tcgory may not fieem 'like d great dcal", but that it is an
arbitrary decision to decrcD~e the density by that amount.
3. Height is affected primarily in th~ "RT" classificðtion, that
therc ùre very few properties which will be affected by the
decrea5e from JOO feet to 100 fect, and that sucr. ð decrcase
without showing the pUblic need is a mistake.
4. In the "RMF-12" category, a recommendation has heen mad~ to
go to three (3) stories as a permitted use Dnri to go b<'lck to
six (f) stories with .1 provisional U5e. Reference was made
to Dr. Spagn,,'s report to the BCC in 19?O ...hich indicated
that height and density reductions beyond whdt is in the
f'xlsting plans 'Would creatl' ð ",¡"II effect· in zoninq ðnd
would contrIbute to urban sprawl.
5. Re the TDR, the NABR oriqinðlly opposl'd the Trðnsfcrðbllity
of Dcvl'lopm('nt R1ohts, but thðt after w~ighing l'conomic needs
~qðins~ environmental nel'ds, the f~ellng is that this ~ðY be
ð good compromisc. However, the reduction in the proposcd
ordinðncl' so rl'ducos the economic value of TDR's that they
essentI~lly nrè vðluelf'ss. f>uch ð reduction ~ould put tho
TDR's hnck into ð situation which borders on being ·confls-
catory" ~nd r~opcns the possibility of litiqðtion on whcth~r

Attorney George Varnadoe, representing some business owners on tho
Isles of Capri, explained that certain existing businesses on the Isles
of Capri will be non-conforming If the currently zoned "GRC· property
is changed to RC-3", and that would result in attondant problems that
non-conforming usus present for owners as well AS the Commissioners,
i.e. that the owncrs could not put up additional signs, could not
expand or
,:"arge their prof .r.: business nor rebuild in the event that
a hurricane destrovs tho bU3i 'SSe Stuting that he rocommends adding
the following language re permlttcd use as a compromise, which would
permit the exis~ing uses to continue as conforming uses lInd allow the
Island to be zoned ·C-3·, he gave a copy of the recommendation to the
Deputy Clerk, who entered it as Exhibit A:
7.22 C-3 COMMERCIAL INTERMEDIATE
. (U) Any use which was permissible und('r thù prior GRC zoning ðnd
which was existing or for which ð building pqrmit had heen
issucd beforc the effective date of this ordinance.R
Mr. Varnadoe urged the Commissioners to IIdopt this pðragraph as an
additional permitted use undcr ·C-)·.
Chðlrmðn Wimer asked County Attorney pickworth If he had seen the
aforementioned lðnguage to which Mr. pickworth rcsponded affirmatively,
that he has no problem with it, and th~t he h~s discussed the subject
with Mr. Virta. Mr. Virts stated that the ·C-3R and -C-4R DI&trlcts
represent the RGRC· District currently, with the RC_3R boing a sub-
division of the RcncR. He stated that Mr. Varnlldo~'S suggestion would
allow some of the prt>viously allowl..'d usus, which would become non-con-

forming, to continue as a permitted use in th~t zone. Chairm~n Wimer
dsked if Mr. Virtð woul~ Agr~o to the nforementloned p~r~graph, ~nd he
responded affirmatively.
Commissioner Pistor moved, seconded by Commissioner Brown and
unanimously c3rried, to include the language submitted by Mr. Varnadoe
ð3 an amendment to thr proposed ordinance.
Attorney Donald Arnold refp.rred to a map change in ~e~tion 2 and
stated that he does not feel there arr. enough permitted uses in tho RI-
Industrial District to make thc District viable for the type of
community in Collier County. He proposed that the RIR Industrial
District be chðnged to include the -C-SR pcrmitted useS and that the
strip zoning by the airport be removed.
Responding to Chairman Wimer, Mr. Virta stated that staff would
strongly rccommend objcction to Mr. Arnold's request. He explained
that staff surveyed the currently zoned WIR Industrial arca north of
Radio Ro~d ðn~ East of Airport Road, which is proposed to be zoned RI-,
a graphic was made, and that staff di3covered that the only presently
allowed existing use, which would not be allowed undor the proposod
ordinance, was the Dance Corner, a store which sells oancing Ðhoes and
leotards. He explained that the prcsent and proposed ordinance allows
for the multiplicity of uses prcsently occurring.
Ms. Kirchhoff referred to the Exocutive Summary dated 12/10/81,
and noted that the CAPC recommended adding, as F(ovislonal uses in the
-IL- and RI- Districts, ðll the uses allowerl in -C-S-, and sho said
that if a commercial use was desired, Ð petitioner would have to go
through the public hearing process. She referr~d to the junkyard
recyclying center petition in the Plnc Ridge Industrial Park, which the
BCC considered at today's regular meeting. Commissioner wenzel asked

if Ms. Kirchhoff had seen Mr. Arnold's December 2, 19a1 letter, end she
etated th~t the lctter was read at ono of the previous hearings.
Commissioner Wenzel said he felt that many of Mr. Arnold's comments
-made a lot of senseR. ReÐponding to Chairman Wimer, Commissioner
Wenzel said that Mr. Arnold's letter limited his rcmarks to paragraph
7.26 of the proposed ordinancc.
A discussion followed concerning currently allowed provisional
uses, and Ms. Kirchhoff stated that only tho hotel/motel and time share
provisi.,..,'
'.05 have been added to the Commcrci~l Districtsl one or
two US6:; .
been added to the Industrial District, and that the
Residential Distrit ts have prðctically been left alone. Commissioner
Kruse asked how many provision~l usos arc currently being granted and
stated that she was extremely uncomfortable with the Board of zoning
Appeals granting provisional U~Ub, if the Board R ~n appointed rather
than an elected Bonrd, bec~use it Is too common for the situation to
become an emotional i5sue.
Mr. ^rrold said that there arc presently approximDtely 2S0 provi-
sional uses. Commissioner pistor questioned why provisional uses were
needed in the industrial areas, Ðince he envisions that area as a place
where there might be manufacturing or some type of work, but that he is
not in favor of the inclusion of evcry commorcial opcration in the
industrial area. Mr. Arnold pointed out that in Collicr County the
tcrm -IndustrialR is "light commercialR rather than the steel mills or
refineries which some areas deem as RIndustrialR. Commissioner pistor
noted that the industrial areas on Airport Road do not havo retail
commercial ûtores, but thðt by allowing everything in ·C-S", the two
designations would be the same, ~nd that he did not [eel that was
necess~ry.

Chairman Wimer Gtat~d he understood that ~r. Arnold would like
-C-S", that staff wants nothing and that Rsomewhere in ~hc mIddle"
would be desirable. He referred Mr. Arnold tn a proposed list of uses;
said that he can see the no cd for limited commercial activities in an
industrial area, and that he believes said list covers thoso activi-
tics. Mr. ~rnQ)d s~ld he agreed that some commcrclal activities are
needed within Industrial.
Responding to ChÐirman Wimer, Mr. Virta said he had obj~ctions to
a number of the allowable items on the proposed list. Commissioner
Wcnzel said he agreed that some ch~nges should be made and that there
is not enough flexIbility now.
Mr. Virta displayed the aforementioned graphic on an ovprhead
board; said that the discussion regarding the n.'\ture of industrial
development in the community re-occurred during the hearings; that
staff became concerned, ~nd that two Pl~nning Department staff toured
the industrial area ncar Radio Road and Airport Road area and "looked
atR each presently existing use. He indicated the location of the
Dance Corner. Mr. Arnold no·tcd th.lt ¡',irport ROild '.s proposed to be
changed from RI" to "C_S". CommissIoner Kruse stated that a ~ew
industrial park is bcing developed ðpproxim~tely IIcross the street, and
she asked if Airport Road would bo designated ·C-5R and the remai~der
of thDt park be "IR Industrial. Mr. Virta said th~t has not be~n
proposed.
Responding to Chðirman Wimer, Mr. VIrta said that no ðnalysia of
the pine Ridge Ind~strial Park ar~a has been done. MG. Kirchhoff
stated that said Park, with J/41s of a mile of frontage on pine Ridge
Road, has been designated -CIR for years, and that ·C-S" or -Il- zoning
1s proposed for that area. 5hc said since the uses of either category

fit the remaining 1/4 mile strip, west of Shirley Street, that "C-5"
zoning was continued for that area.
Responding to Chairman Wimor, Commissioner Wenzel said he 5ðW
nothing wrong with a person putting a commercial venture in an indus-
trial area, to which Commissioners Kruse and Brown agreed, and Commis-
810ner Pistor stated hc felt the aforementioncd list has somc merit.
Chairman Wimer appointed Messrs. Varnadoe, Arnold, Conroy and Virtn to
ð committee, with ~r. Virta act as chairman, to resolve the sltua-
tion, that the aformentioned ' ~t be used as a basis, and that on
January 5, 1982, the Committee will return with a firm, agreed recom-
mendation.
Ms. Charlotte Westman, representing the Leagu~ of Women Voters,
(LWV) read a detail'" r;;'atement on behalf of that organization
supporting several
5 in the proposed ordInance. Ms. Westman asked
if the EAC and the WMAB will continue to function as advisory bodies
and continue to have mcaningful input as part of the Planning
Commission?
Chairman Wimer asked Ms. Westman to le~ve hcr statcment with ~r.
Virta. Commissioner Wenzel askcd if the LWV favors an appointed
~ppeals Board rather than having elpctcd public officials to which
Ms.Westman rcsponded affirmatively.
Mr. Jack Conroy, represcnting the N~BR gt~ted, ro the proposed
ordinance, that he felt the most important single issue is recognition
of private propcrty rights, since changing zoning affccts said rights.
He addressed tho issue of the Board of Zoning ^ppcaln and the fact that
Baid Board addrcBses requests for provisionlll uses. He explained that
the NABR feels that the thoory behind aald Board Is proper, ~nd that
thero ahould be some form other th~n the BCC for qu~gi-judicial func-

tions, such as appealing the rulings of the zoning Director. He said
that NABR (oels that the qr~ntlnq of provisional uses has to be the
BCC's function and r~commends that provisional use petitions come
before tho bCC. He personally recommen~
jelcting the placement of
provisional uses under the BOArd of Zoni~g Appeals.
Mr. rickworth said th~t, under the Gpecial Acts of Collier County,
the Board of Zoning Appeals can definitely hear variances and
administrative appeals, but that there is no specific ~uthorization in
the Acts for the Board of Zoning ^P?eals to hear provisional uses, in
which case the cons~rvativc vil.'wpoint Is that the BCC should retain
jurisdiction over those.
Chairman Wimer said th~t if the Board of zoning ^ppeals cannot
hear provisional uses, he would ju~t ðS soon "throw the wnole thing
outR, since that is the key to the whole situðtion
Mr. Virta asked if the review of proviÐ~onal use would be allowed
if Chapter l63 of the General Acts is used, to which Mr. pickworth
responded affirm,;,tively. ChlJirman Wimer asked for furthel rcseë'lfch by
staff on the subject being discussed prior to the next meeting to
properly consider the topic.
Commlssioner Kruse said she agreed with Chairman Wimer re provi-
sional uses, that the grnnting of puts is one of the most distasteful
chores which the flCC has to do, ðnd that she does not "thlnk it is
(" ightR to give t hll t duty to someonc ....ho docs not have to face the
voting public. She said she could scc moving the BCC, as a Board of
Zoning Appeals, to one or two days per month, lInd that she feels the
RCC makes the rules .,nd sho u 1 d also be making the exceptions. She
sa id , if she were a petitioner, th~t e;ho wo u 1 d bo very angry to face a
group of appointed people nnd have them determine her f¡ste when she

procedurðl, and Commissioner Kruse said that ~onfusion is caused by
6Ufu~ono not (~ml1!Jr wi~h the hur~aucr~t\c system if the BCe 8winqs
back and forth from zoning appeals to a variance to a public hearing
for rezone, to Ð Comprehensive Plan change.
Attorney J. Dudley Goodlette, representing the NABR, agreod with
M@~Ars. Smith and Conroy and suggested consideration of the historical
perspective re proviÐlonal uses, since he has learned that no more than
approximately 26 provisional use petitions have been filed in any year
since 1972. He said that he Agrees with Mr. Pickworth's suggestion to
treat provisional uses in the same way as rezoning of property, since
he feels that a provlfiional use goes to the Rheart of the use of the
propertyR, ~nd that the N^ßR feels tho~c petitions should be considered
by A body that is responsible to the public.
Regarding Com~lssioncr Kruse's concern, Mr. Goddlette said he felt
that at ð mini~um the BCC needs to adopt an ordln~nce which the N^BR
has submitted for consideration perscriblng In detail the qualifica-
tlons of persons to serve on the advisory boards and that such a
~eaningful ordin~nce m~y permit: . BCC to have more confidence about
the appointed bodies.
He sðld he did not mean to criticize ~hose
persons who~ the BCC has d~cmed [\t to ðppoint to pres~nt co~~isslons,
but that a primary concern that he and his clients Ðhare is a need for
more substantive criteria for the appointment of those persons so that
the BCC will have cert~in qu~liflcðtion5 for membership, ð~d that if it
is permissions) to refcr the subject of provisional uses to ð Aoard of
Zoning ^ppeals, that Board should be ~nswerahle to the public In SOffiO
way.

Mr. Goodlett. roferred to "RMF-~" zoning found in the proposed
zoning ordinðnce on pages 28 ðnd 29, SccL10n 7.12 (OlC), and l!!lIr.ed for
clðrificlltion re the phrðse, RSee Section lO.S-. He asked whether ð
pcrson is asked to comply with section 10.5, hec~use if such were the
_ ClIse, thero is a vesting of rights when ð development plan is submitted
in the one or two year limitations set forth on page 16 of the proposed
ordinance that has paramount importance.
~r. Virtð clarified that the item following the phrase "See
Section 10.5R indic~tes "Subject to Section 10.5", and he explained
that developncnt plan approval is voluntðry in onc case, but mandatory
in the "Subject toR item. Re~ponding to Mr. Goodletto, Mr. Virta said
that if the developmcnt plßn is subnitted voluntarily, the pcrson has
the ve!'.igc of rights. ~r. Goodlettc requested verbage claritlcation
of th~t point in the proposed ordinance.
Mr. James L. Roder, p.)rt owner of Driftwood Landing, Isles of
¡ ClIpri, explain~d that in ]979 ðn 18 unit motel was built, complying
I. with the zoning regulðtions and ordinancc~ at that time. With the
!
I proposed zoning density changes, he stated, he would be unable to
rebuild his structure if é) hurricllno or fire occurs, t.IUS requiring a
two year old building to be classed as ð non-conforming use ðnd thðt
would exhibit ~ built-in obsolesccnce caused by the proposed density
regulations undcr the new zoning rule. Hc requcsted that this matter
be investigated. lie :-,id that he did not want to increase his
holdings, but ~lso did not want to lose anything he prosently has.
In rcsponse to Chairmðn Wimer's qucstion, Mr. Virtð explðlned that
if Mr. Rodcr is in the area zoned commercial, he would continue to be a
permitted use and would be ðble to rcbuild the same as the present

building. Chairman Wimcr said that the intent and ðirectlon of the BCC
of the amendmcnt mðdc ear11cr this evcning would permit Mr. Roder t~
rebuild as his prescnt structure, and ho asked staff to be ccrtain that
the -wordingR rcflects this situation.
Mr. D~vid Graham, Golden Gate resident, asked for the rationale
re9~rdlng the limitation of 150 feet of frontnge on a lot in order to
construct a guest house. He statcd that prcsently a guest house can be
constructed on ~ 75 foot, 1-1/4 ðcre lot. Mr. Virta said that there
have been problcms which the DCC has had to face re providing for a
guest house on a 75 foot lot, and thðt the rationale behind the 150
foot limitation is to permit guest houses if the lot is a 2-1/4 to a
2-1/2 acre parcel with sufficient frontage. Mr. Graham said he could
not see what problems arc caused and suggested that a better way to
nolve a C'Jm pI a I n t with elevations might be some legi51~tion mandating
tha t a quest house has to bc pl,lead to the rear of the propcrty, or if
square footðgc of guest houses is restricted further, that would be
fine. He asked the BCC not to Rtake away our pri va te property rights" .
.....Commissioner Krus~ left the room at 8:C5 P.M.·····
Chairman Wimer said that the main problem cncountercd with the
arca to which Mr. Grah~m refers was the narrow, 75 foot lot, that the
BCC was trying to be responsive to problems such as a l,'OO square foot
structure with ~ garage being placcd on that sizc lot and a guest house
with a driveway bcing constructed behind that structure. He explained
that the ~CC was trying to be responsive to tho atorem~ntioned problem
where thero was a multiplicity of 75 foot lots.
Mr. Charles L. Shumway explained that he wrote the ßCC in ~ugust
opposing tho 200 foot height limitation becausc he Ceela that tho real
issue is whether the Commissioners or anybody conn<,ct~d with govcrnment

able to cons~ru=t a profp~RionAlly designcd building. He submittcd
th.:1t if l1mitl'ltions of density arc desired, that is ./I right of the ace,
but he suggested that by limiting the he igh, 1'1 dcveloper is be irlg made
to use considcrðbly IT,O.r c land fOJ: a b u 11 ding thus leaving less -green

that there is a tremendous public issue thl'lt Rcries out against th~ 200

Pelican Bay and Parkshore. Ho suggcsted that the OCC could designate
areas where the structures could b~ built and rcquestcd a little more
cDrcful rcview bctwcen staff and the DCC regarding where thc limitation
of 200 feet should be placed. He asked that ~he individual developers
bc allowed to come up with ~ good archltcctural plan.
Commissioner Wenzel ask~d Mr. Virta if the reason f~r limitation
of a gucst house was.because of sizc or the 1-1/4 ~cres of land, to
which Mr. Virta ðnswcrcd because of the frontùg~. Ms. Kirchhoff
expl~ined that with a 75 foot lot, a 7-1/2 foot setback on each side 1s
required which leaves only fiO feet which prohibits ð driveway to a
guest hous0. since most hou.es are 55 to fiO feet wide.

Chairman Wimer said ho would novor vote appro-
val for a guest house on a 75 foot lot, but that 105 feot ~ay boo
acce ptabl e .
Commissioner Kruse asked if the total square footage of the lots
could be investigated. Chairman Wimer explained that a total square
footage is in the present ordinance and, therefore, is not the problem.
He described the Rband-aid lotsR in Golden Gate Estates, i.e. 75 foot
by 650 foot lots which from the road creates the problem of a walled
effect that would be doubled if guest houses were allowed.
Mr. John Steinwand, repre~enting the NABR, addressed page 35 of
the proposed zoning ordinance, Section 7.15, RRT- ~esidential Touript
District, Item 7, floor arca requirements, nnd Ðtated thAt the NABR has
talked with staff and Commissioners with the rcsultant consensus that
some change might be amenablo to ~ta!f ro Item B, which sets a 500
square foot maximum tor hotels and motels. He requested staff to
comment on whether they would be in favor of allowing a provision~l
usage under the -RTR section for such outst~nding structures as a
-super luxury development".
In response to Commissioner pistor,
Chairman Wimer stated that the maximum limitation was to prevent
someone from coming in at 30 units per acrc with a building pcrmit for
a hotel when it really is a condominium or interval ownership.
Mr. Vlrta said that he did not see any roal problem with Mr.
Steinwand's request except that it would be an additional provision~l
use. He concurred with Ch~irman Wimer's statement regarding why tho
maxImum limitation is in the proposed ordinance and that the addition~l
20\ is now part of the draft. Chairman Wimer expl~ined that tho 20\
would enable a hotol to add additional suites if desired. Mr.
Stelnw~nd saId that there 1s a trend toward ]~rger hotel units which
would have a legitlm...cy not as condominiums but as RßlIptH c1eluxt!'

to n condominium, to wh i c h Mr. Virtn said tha t pa rt of the problem i8
that in evary hotel room there is the allow~nce for cooking facilities
which "lire not cooking fi1cillt.ics". lie explain~d th.Jt if such facil1-
ties were a self contained unit, encompassing l~ square feet, with a
rcfriqcrlltor, stove, anrl sink, that is not considered cooking facili-
ties but thllt they arc there already. Chairman Wimer asked staff to
addross in the ordinance that thcrc "be absolutely no cooking faciities
in a hotel or motelR except for a certain numbcr of u~its that could be
¡
,
allowed, i.e. kitchenette or the suites. Mr. Steinwi1nd suggested
adding to tn~ proposed ordinance the vcrbðge that the units had to be
held out for rcnt or. a daily basis which would overcome the original
reason for the 500 square foot maximum 11mlti1tion. Ms. Kirchhoff noted
that suggestion would create êln enforcLment problem, because a building
inspcctcr would have to be at an establishment evcry day.
Mr. J.F. Popplewell, owner-developer of Sunny Trail ~otel, Wiggind
Pass Road, explained he acquired his prQPcrty in 197R and tas built one
building every year ns time and conditions permit. lie said thdt he has
acquired additionc.'ll, adjacent property currently zoned "GRCR, but that
the proposed density change would dc-value his property and prevent him
from continuing his conÐtruction program, because it would not bo
cconomically feaGible for him to build a motel and continue opcration
for the current price of the l<:lnd. Be cxplained that ho has two fin-
ished buildings, one building under construction, ^nd that thero is
room for two morc builrlings.

nol be ab16 to cerne to the Build1~1 Pep~rtmpnt throught the Zoninq
Depertment and obt~in a building permit to continue building in the
samo manner and style which he wanted to build his project. Responding
to Chairmnn Wimer, Mr. popplewell said that hn did not havo tho number
of units per acrc because in tho "GRCR zoning motal usage is depend~nt
upon the number of parking spaces.
Zoning Director Perry explained that Mr. popplewell's project is
probably botween 20 to 30 units per acre and that the RC_4R District,
which his land would be zonp.d undp.r tho propoÐed ordinance, will Dllow
motels as provisional uses at only 16 units per acre, hence, on the
remaining portion of his vacant land Mr. popplewell would not be able
to build bccause of those ncw limits.
Chairman Wimer asked Mr. Popplcwel) if he had ß suggested amend-
mcnt to the proposed zoning ordinance, which would be a change in the
denisty, th~t the BCC could consider that requeot. Mr. Perry explained
that there w~uld b<, no zoning district any better. Mr. popplewell said
he had no suggestions other than continuing hiG prcscnt building
practices. MS. Kirchhoff c~plained that the "RT" allows 16 units per
acre for multifamily and 2fi units (or hotel/motel and that there was
considerable discussion aß to whethor to carry the '6 units per acre
into the RC_4R and RC-S" categories and that the vote was not
unan imous.
Responding thc Chairman Wimer, "'r. popple''''. 'I said he owned the
addition~l land and has plans for the new buildings but thDt he would
not be ablc to get a building permit in less than 60 days, possibly '0
days, because of the regulations. Since he did not see any inclination
to incrcase tho l~ units pcr "cre regulation, Chairman Wimer suggested

Wonzel moved, seconded by Commissioner pistor and carried unanimously,
that the BCC approve that the preceding staff recommendation be
incluóed in the proposed zoning ordinance.
Item 18. ·STR section concerning contiguous lands - take out
donation requirement and add gunrantee requirement: Chairman Wimer
stated the aforementioned staff recommendation is in direct conflict
with a previously stated DCC desire of not wanting g~ar~ntees because
the BCC wantcd the donation of land. He said that following discus-
sion, hc wondercd if considcration of ST should not be removed from the
proposed ordinance.
Mr. pickworth stated that hc found a number of currcntly unre-
solved questions re the subject, while going through the proposed
ordinance, which were raised aftcr receipt of a comprehensive letter
some time ago. He ey.plained that there are conslder~ble variations And
approaches to the ST scction which might make considerDtion of the
subject at a later date worthwhile, if the BCC so desires.
Chairman Wimcr stated hc has serious concerns re the topic and
that the DCC would probably have to leave thc ·STR ordinance in the
redrafting as it prcs2ntly exists bu~ continue the moratorium of TCR's
until the now ordin"nco is adopted. Mr. Virta said that there would
have to be some amendment in any event to make the RSTR fit thc new

subject should be handled as " separate issue.

Mr. Cr:pparù's propcrty near this p~rccl was-recommënded to
be rczoncd to A-2. Mrs. Kaiser's property was recommended to
be delcted and-rëzoncd to A-2 since ~he h~s an ongoing farm
in that area. --
Attorney Jim Sicsky, representing Nðt Dubinsky, cxplained that Mr.
rJbinsky has owncd property for approximately sevcn years which Is
zoned Agriculture in Section 1~, T495, R26E, on which he has had a
single family residence, animal breeding, training and k~nnel facility,
And A wholesale nursery, and that currently he has a verbal agreement
for the land to be farmed. He stated the aforementioned uses arc
consistent with the ^gricullure zoning and that Mr. Dubinsky would like
to maintain that zoning. Mr. Siesky said that Section 13, T495, R25E,
which is west of Mr. Dubinsky's property, is zoned A-I, that the
propcrty immediately south of Section 10, the northcrn approximately
1/4 section, is zoncd A-2, that Mr. Frank CroJppara has requcsted and
been recommended for continucd 1'1-2 zoning on his property, as has
Willie Kaiser for his property. ~r. Siesky stated that in his opinion
there is no overriding purpose to r..zonc the property under discussion
to Estatcs and requested continulltion of A-2 zoning for his client's
propcr ty.

Community Development Director Virta interjected thðt porhaps it
.
was time that staff t~ke the whole section back to A-2. Commissioner
Kruse moved, s~conded by Commissioner Wenzel and carried unanimously,
thnt Sp.ction 18 be zoned A-2.
Mr. Jim McKay, owner of a building on the corner of US 41 and
Frank Whitcman Boulevard, explained that the building was designed for
a second story. He said thðt his propcrty extcnds from US 41 to 10th
Street, which is proposed for rezoning from -GRCR. Respondlng to
Commissioner Wenzel, Mr. McKay explalncd that his property dimensions
are 100 feet on US 41 by 175 feet deep, and that in order to put the
second story on the building, he nce~g the bðlance of 150 feot of
property for p<1rking. I!c requested tho zoning remain RGRCR.
Purinq the ~n~u\ng discussion, the point was made th~t a portion
of the property in question was zon~d Rcsidenti~l on tho Comprehensive
Land Use Plan, ~nd that a parking lot could not be constructed unless
tho Comprehensive Plan was changed. Chairman Wimer explained that Mr.
McKay has owned the property for approximately 29 years, and ho asked
staff if there was ~ny other way that a parking lot could be dccom-
modated on the back portion of his property. Mr. Virta responded that,
as the Comprohensive Plan is presently writton, this would not be
possible. Chairman Wimer asked if a way could be developed to permit
this use, and Zoning Director Perry st~ted th<1t if the Comprehensive
Plan is chang cd to Commerci~l that the Zoning Ordinance would allow a
p<1rking lot, evcn though the property i8 residentially zoned.
Rcference was made to previously allowed parking lots on reøl-
dcntially zoned properties, i.a. churches, and Mr. Perry stated that
those instances were prior to the ~doptlon of the Comprehensive Plan,

and ho clarified that Zoning still allo~s a business to place parking
within SOD feet of ~ busine~s on lands zoncd resld~nt1al if the p~Ll-
tion is approved that way.
Responding to Commiasioner Wenzel, Mr. ~cKay stnted that the
entire p~rcel of land to lOth Street was zoned "GRCR, at the time he
built the buildi~g. Chairman Wimer explained that the direction from
the Board is to in~truct the staff to find a solution so that Mr. McKay
would be able to construct a parking lot for his building on the back
portion of his property, and he suggested that Mr. McKay keep in touch
with Mr. Virta.
Attorney Ron Hogue, representing Frank W. Boyle, et al, owner of
property adjacent to Mr. McKay's property, said that his client's
property is zoncd "GRC" and Residential zoning on the back porti~n. He
stated he was aware that the Comprchensive Plan would have to be
changed so that the entire parcel would be zoned "GRCR. Hc said that
an optioned buyer has plans to bulld on the property and that not all
of the back portion would be used for parking, since some buildings
would be placed in that area. He indicated the location of the
property in question on a map on an overhead board and explainerl there
are 4.5 acres which fronts 10th Street, and that the property has been
zoned "GRC" for a considerable amount of time.
Mr. Rogue explained that whcn the Comprehensive Plan was adoPted
in 1979, the bDCk 175 feet of the property waß r~quircd to be a buffer
zone for the residential area and, that after checking with the Plan-
ning Department, he discovercd that the reðson for that change waS to
brIng the arca into conformity with other property as well as to act as
a buffer. He describrd the ðrca and explained that four property

doco not tun ~ll the 'fiftY throulJh, but ('nds .,fler three blocks, ðl'ù tt,~t
no sewers are installed in the area with none being p~..J'H~,,1 for snme
time. He stated his clicnt owns 2-1/2 acres, 1-1/4 acrc of which 18
affected by the rezoning ~nd that 1n ordor to build any type of un~t ~n
said property, a sewer plant occupying approximately 1/2 acrc would
have to be plDced in the residential area to permit reasonnblc land
use.
During the ensuing discussion, Chairman Wimcr explained that he
had driven by the area in question this date, ðnd that he hðS a problem
with zoning the whole block commercial because the residential propcrty
owners look into the back of a scrvlcc station and 7-11 store, a3 well
as a mobile home office/storage unit. He said that the residents would
have perferred having the area zoned residential multifamily rather
than commercial, and that 10th Street 'fIas never designed to handle the
commercial uses placed in that 'Hea. lie sa id he could approve of Mr.
McKay's request for parking on his corner lot.
Mr. lIogue stated that an alleyway would be created between the
residential and multifamily if multifamily zoning is placed on that
strip of property because, in order to build with the required setbacks
and required parking, the lots on the Trail would be approximately 40
feet deep, resulting in said strip with an alloy behind the lots which
woUld need to bo scrvic~d. Chðirman Wimer re-emphasized that Mr.
Hogue's requested rezoning could not be accomplished until the Compre-
hensive Land Use plan is enacted.
Commissioner Wenzel stated that tho owner of J.P.'s restaurant was

Mr. John S. Berio r.xplained that he is interested in the property
just discussed, and that he owns and operates a lumbcr yard on Lot 72,
Naples Little Farms, which h~s a 330 feet frontage on the Trail, with

Mr. Serio r~5ponded to CommlsGioner Wenzel's qu¿gtion by explain-
ing that his first building is 140 feet and the warehouse approxima~~ly
300 feet from the street, ðnd that h~ grows trees around the perimeter
of the lumber yard to screen stored lumber from the area. The point
was made that the back portion of ~r. B~rio's yard would be in the
proposed RMF-6 zoned arca. He stated he has been in the area since
1947. Chairman Wimer said, in his opinion, ~taff should find a way for
Mr. Berio to continue as he presently operateB his business. Commi~-
øioner Pistor said that this would constitute spot zoning and he
~uggeGted the whole matter be considered.
Chairman Wimcr stated th~t it waD the consensus of the Buard for

Attorney William Blackwell rcferred to page 027 on the map on the
overhead board, a NortQ Goldcn Gate tr~ct of l~nd, and explained that
he had spoken on this issue prcviously before the ace, at the prelimi-
nary hearings, and before the CAPC. He explained that the four SQC-
tions of land to which he roferred belongs to GAC Realty Trust, ðnd was
Rspun out of the bankrupt Gulf American Land CorporationR in tho
Federal District Court in Miami, ba~cd on appraisal of vðrious assests
that the bðnkrupt had. He stðte~ that said aFpraisal took into account
zoning and land use parameters which then existed, ðnd that a signifi-
cant expenditure of money h~s be~n Mðdc by the predecessors entitled to
the land, i.e. surveying, engineering and dedicating pl~ts. H~ said
that dedicated ðnL significant public rights-of-way wore accepted by
the Cnllnty Commissj_,.\ in 19fi7. He said that he is opposed to rezoning
every two year~; that the plats have not boen vDcated, nnd he requested
that his clients' propcrty be left as currently zoned and not rezoned
A-l.
Planning Director Crew s~id th~t zoning is al~ðYs subject to
change, and he listed the following points for the Commissioners'
consideratlons
~*-
..
1. The current: prilcticcs of good pl<'lnning, subdivision stan-
dards, lo~ size~, roado, urban design, etc., dictate the
recomMl.'nd~tions that staff h~s made; strip commercial is no
. )ng<::r considered to be in the public Interest.

S. The property is presently used as agriculture and tho soils
ere acceptable ðnd valid for agricultural use.
6. The existing zoning that is in this plat does not exist in
some cases any longer, i.e. the Immok~lee Golf Course ðnd
the Immokalee Multifamily 5.
7. On May 1, 1979, the areas wcrc trllnsfpred from IAPC to CAPC,
which had a major effect on the zoning.
8. On May 8, 1979, the Comprehensive Plan for ColI ier County was
adopted which made this area entirely residential, 0-4 units
per acre which in effect, duc to staff's interpretation of
the Attorney General's opinion, has voided most of the zoning
for practical purposes.
9. In Novembcr 1981, the ACC adopted a land use plan change for
tho arca of ðgricultur~, the propcrty owner was notified ðnd
the change was not contested since no objection was raised at
thllt time.
Mr. Crow stated that thc rccommcndation h~s been made by the IAPC,
CAPC and staff recommends same.
During the following discussion, Mr. Virta rcsponded to a question
by Commissioenr Kruse that the Quail Crcek PUD, near the property under
discussion, has a density of one unit per two acres. Mr. Blackwell
took issue with Mr. Crew'~ ~tatement that the property owner has not
opposed this change by stating that he has been opposing said change
for the last two months, and had "'Iritten a letter of opposition to each
Commissioner. Mr. Crew stated that staff feels because there has becn
15 to 20 years of non-use, the plats have effectively been voided. Mr.
Blackwell stated, in his opinion, tht! zoning Is much the same liS a PlID,
ðnd that the name of plat design has been changed. lie contended that
the property is ð platted subdivision.

not know. Mr. pickworth explained that during those proceedings an
agreement was "worked outR between G^C, their bankruptcy attorney,
himself, and a bankruptcy attorney retained by Collier County which
would require that if the property under discussion were developed, it
....ould have to ~e developed in Dccordance with the exis~ing subdivision
regulations. ,Ie sald th"t the County takes the position thðt under
that GAe agre~ment, the development of the property under existing
subdivision reguli)t1ons would not be possible. He said that tho
agreement was mðde during the course of the bankruptcY1 that the
propcrty wcnt into the liquidating trust and that the agreemu~t was
m~de by the trustees and approved by th~ Courts.
Mr. Blackwell stated that the liquidating trust received those
assets basc'" IF-on appr~ised vê1lues of all the asset.~ of the bankrupt
and he agreed with /'Ir. pickworth thLlt the liquidating trust received
the ðssets by order of the same c~urt that approved the aforementioned
agreement. "'r. pickworth said he would get a copy of that agreement
for Mr. Bl~ckwell, Dnd that ttere is certainly ð question as to whether
or not even at the time the agreement was made that there ....as any
intention to develop the property in accordance with the plat.
Chairm~n Wimcr said that n0 action would be taken at this hearing
with the exception of some adjustment5 and that the final vote would be
J~nuary S, 1~82. Responding to Mr. Blackwell, Chairman Wimer explðlned
th~t the BCe could make a change in this specific instilnco if they so
desire but that no ch"nge seems to be forthcoming. poll. Cl,'cl:....cll

Responding to 8 request by Commissioner Brown, Mr. Blackwell said
he would be hóppy to discuss th,. ~ltUðt.lon with the Lounty AlLuf)ey.
Mr. pickworth said th~t he did not feel that the planning considera-
tions which have to be weighed reg~rding the subjoct under discussion
could be disregarded ðnd th3t the BCC would have to consider all facets
in making its ultimate determination.
Commissionp.rs Kruse, Wenzel and rlstor responded negatively to
Chairman Wimer's question of whether the BCC wished to make any changes
rogarding Mr. Blackwell's request, and Chairman Wimer stðtcd that the
BCC would make the flnal determln~tion on J~nu~ry 5, 1982. Commis-
sioner Brown moved to leave the present zon~ng on the property in
question. Motion died for lack of a second.
Mr. Blackwell Ðtated that he ropre~ents the Edith Sproul Trust,
own~ of ~ 10 acre tract of land in the SW 1/4 of Airport Road and
Colden Gate Parkway, immediately adjacent to property known as Bear's
~aw. He said that the tract was designated GRC two years ago as a
result of the negotiating procecding~ heard before the BCC with respect
to the approval of the PUD's for Bears Paw and that the landvwner
employe- architects, engineers, land plðnnors, and interior designers
to design an office building complex, including a rest~urant and high
qu~lity shops. He said that with the widening of ^irport and Golden
Gate Roads intersection, his client spent in excess of $20,000 t~ help
pay for entrances at the ~forementioned interr.ection on tho four-lane
highwðY. He stated that neveral wep.ks ago, the ncc dirccted stIlt! to
re-examine the property with ~ view to lowering the zoning from C-3 to

that whcn the discussion ro the propcrty return~d to tno CArC, ~t~!f
and CAPC again recommended the parcpl to remain zoned C-3, which is
what ho requests at this heðring.
Ms. Kirchhoff explained that at the final hcaring by the BCC on
the tentative revort, a motion WðS made to take the zoning on this
property back to C-l.
,.
Commissionor Wenzel askeó for clllrification of why the zoning was
requested to be changed back to C-l, ðnd Ms. Kirchhoff explained that

present and the mot4.on .Me:, .'.0 "CIIJngo the property under discussion from
.........
C-J to C-l, with ð resl.ilbt;·.;;~f(l"'ï·.~:('te. She rcsponded to Commissioner
Wenzel's question by stating that th~re is a difference in uses between
C-l ðnd C-3, since C-l is profe5sion~l commcrcial with limited usage.
. .
Chairman Wim~r ~~ld that he recalled when Bearls Paw originally came
under consideration, that the--:Qrncr was reserved for office buildings
and that at that point in time the only classific~tion was GRC. He
said that with the increase in Lrafíic imd b~C"i\IIS(> the Golden Gate
Parkway now would extend to ~~ 41, there was a feeling by some
Commissionens that a less intensive use would be of public benefit and
be more consistent with what is being planned for major intersections
and that the C-l zoning designation would be more appropriate.
During the ensuing discussion, Commissioner Kruse said that Ms.
Kirchhoff reflected her votc at the previously mentioned hearing
inaccurately, that she voted for this property to go from C-3 to Cl,
but thaL shc voted ag~\~ßt the Comprehensive Land Use plan. She
explained that the reason she voted for the C-l designation was

the airport which is currcntly zoned RM-l and recommended to be changed
to A-2. 110 oxplalned that the Comprchcnsive Lðnd Uso Plan shows thllt
propcrty to be commercilll and that hc undcrstands that the reason for
tho A-2 rccommcndntion hy ~t~ff 15 that staff feels that the propcrty
should not be residential bccausc it is so close the the airport. He
stated that A-2 is a "holòing pattcrn" zoning which allows onc unit per
five acres and that the ^-2 designati)n would, in effcct, be down
zoning his client's property from six units per acre currently allowed
in RM-l. He said that he did not feel is was proper to label this area
ð "holding patt~rn" category because it is evident what the zonirg will
be on propcrty "that close in". Ie explained that -holding patternR
arcas are for parc~ls oí land where "leap frog growthingR is taking
place and no onc knows what the growth will bc.
He stated that in his
opinion to zone this parcel A-~ would be an impropcr means of of a just
goal, zoning the area com~crcial. He requested that, ie ~là(f fccl~
the arca should be commercia:, then ð Comprchensive plan change should
be proposed for the property under òiscussion.
During the ensuing discussion, ~r. Varnadoe explained that his

hensive Plan amendment request has not yet been submitted for those
areas and could not bc submitted until the next six month zoning
review. Mr. V~rnadoe stated that, if staff submits a Comprehensive
Plan change, his client would not object but that he does not think
taking pr~perty rights ~way by zoning the propcrty A-2 is justified.
Commissioner Brown moved, secondeò by Commissioner Pistor and
carried unanimously, that the zoning on the property u~der discussion
remain RM-l. Chairman Wimer dirccted st(]ff to lo,)k at the p~rcel of
land directly ~cross the Ðtrcet from the entrance to the new airport
terminal and rcturn with proper do.signations, since he is not sure he
is in ð9re :mcnt that the arca the cn' ire lcngth of the airport should
be zoned commercial. He said that future zoning designations in the
area continu~ to wiF~ out RM-l ~nd RM-l^ zoning which allows for lower
cost rental units that the BCC would be diðmetricially opposed to some
of the pl~ments on the Comprchen~ivc Land Use Plan which the BCC says
the County needs, i.e. lower cost housing units.
MS. Kirchhoff asked tor ~lðrification re leaving the zoning as it
is and Chðirm~n Wimcr 9~id the propcrty should be left as zoned under
the existing Zoning Ordlnance.

Plator and carried 4/0, with Commissioner Wenzel absent, that the Bee
rczone the property in Section 49-2ó-6 to R~F-3.
Ms. Charlotte Wcstman, rcprcscnting the Lcaguc of Women Voters
(LWV), requested the MIS map for Township 52~ to be placed on an
overhcad board and expla :lcd that she had called a property owncr on
Marco Island aftcr discovering th~t the Mica Beach area is proposed to
be zoned RO, the property to the north, RMF-l6, which is the Culfviow,
and that the Princess Del ~ar, the Princcss, and the Dutchess would be
in a zone which could convert to interval ownership, if tho proposp.d
zoning ordinance is approved. She said that she dtd not understand the
proposed RT zoning for the property in question. Aftcr further des-
cription of surrounding proposed zoning, Ms. Kirchhoff explained that
the property under discussion has been zoned RTR for the past eight
years which allows multifamily and hotel/motel. Ms. Kirchhoff
explained the rationale behind the current zoning and said that Special
Exception designation allows a temporary sales office and is zoned RT.
Chaiman Wimer suggested that, since this subject was raised at
this public hearing, no final action would be taken until January ~,
1982. Commissioner Pistor said he did not see why the area under
discussion c~uld not be changed to RMF-16. Ch~irm~n Wim~r said that if
the owner to whom Ms. Westman referred is unhappy with his existing
zoning, now Is the time to reqeust ð change.
