EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to receive and approve the Collier County Floodplain Management Plan 2017
Progress Report and Proposed Action Plan for 2018 and 2019. In addition to provide an update
regarding the rate of sea level rise adopted in the Floodplain Management Plan.
OBJECTIVE: To provide the Board of County Commissioners (Board) with a Progress Report on the
Collier County Floodplain Management Plan that was developed as a requirement of the County’s
participation in the National Flood Insurance Program’s Community Rating System. Staff is providing this
annual report to keep the Board informed of progress with regards to floodplain management within the
County.
CONSIDERATIONS:
2017 Progress Report and Proposed Action Plans for 2018 and 2019
Collier County is a voluntary participant in the Community Rating System (CRS) of the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP). As such, the County has developed and maintains a Floodplain Management
Plan. The purpose of a Floodplain Management Plan is to promote awareness of floodplain and flooding
issues, identify known flood hazards, discuss past flooding events, assess the current floodplain/flooding
problems, and set goals along with a strategy to make the community more resistant to flooding.
The County adopted its effective Floodplain Management Plan on March 10, 2015. The Plan was developed
by a consultant under the guidance of the Floodplain Management Planning Committee and was adopted
as a component of the Local Mitigation Strategy. The Floodplain Management Plan must be updated every
five years. The next update is scheduled for 2019-2020.
Collier County achieved a Community Rating System Class 5 rating in October 2015, which provides up
to a 25 percent discount on the premium rates charged to flood insurance policyholders. Because of this
rating, Collier County policyholders save roughly $7.9 million annually for approximately 70,000 flood
insurance policies across the County. As a part of the County’s annual Community Rating System
recertification, the County is required to provide a Progress Report on the accomplishments of goals in the
Floodplain Management Plan.
The Collier County Floodplain Management Plan 2017 Progress Report illustrates the progress made
toward fulfilling the 2017 Mitigation Action Items which were derived from the goals, objectives, and
policies of the effective Floodplain Management Plan. Please see Attachment 1 for details regarding the
progress made in achieving each mitigation action item. The progress report historically has been reviewed
by the Floodplain Management Planning Committee in the 2nd quarter of the year. However, due to CRS
verification visit and the recertification cycle modifications, the Progress Report review was conducted in
the 4th quarter of the year. There are no changes to the proposed Action Plan for 2018 or 2019. Please see
Attachment two for the proposed Action Plan for 2018 and 2019. The Floodplain Management Planning
Committee reviewed and approved this Executive Summary and corresponding Attachments on November
14, 2018.
Update regarding the rate of sea level rise adopted in the Floodplain Management Plan
The Floodplain Management Plan includes a section on the rate of sea level rise for Collier County. The
rate of rise was based on U.S Army Corps of Engineers data. The accuracy of this figure is very important
as it establishes a minimum standard for planning capital projects and other activities and is the only locally
16.A.5
Packet Pg. 795 Attachment: Executive Summary (7415 : Floodplain Management Planning Committee - November 14, 2018)
adopted metric related to sea level rise projections at this time. However, an error in the rate of rise
calculation was identified by staff in 2017. Following this finding, staff worked cooperatively with Climate
Central and professors from Florida Gulf Coast University and the University of Florida to correct and
update the rate of rise to 1.5 ft by 2060. On October 10, 2017, this information was presented to the Board
for concurrence and direction to update the rate of sea level rise. The revised metric of 1.5 feet by 2060 is
consistent with the range being used in the NOAA study for the same time period. Staff is continuing to
work through the established process to update the rate of sea level rise in the Floodplain Management Plan.
FISCAL IMPACT: There are no fiscal impacts associated with this action.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact associated with this
action.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed by the County Attorney, is approved as to

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to accept an update on sea-level rise planning activities and provide direction
on future actions.
OBJECTIVE: To accept an update for ongoing activities related to Sea-Level Rise (SLR).
CONSIDERATIONS: On June 23, 2015 (Item 10A), the Board of County Commissioners (Board)
initiated a conversation related to SLR, and provided direction to the County Manager to proceed with
data gathering, etc.
On October 11, 2016, staff provided a comprehensive update to the Board, which included additional
working tasks designed to keep the initiative moving forward, identify stakeholders and partners, etc.
Additionally, Collier County (County), the City of Naples, City of Marco Island, and the City of
Everglades joined in support of Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU), University of Florida (UF),
etc. in their application for a grant from the National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NOAA) for a
3-year study and modeling exercise related to the impacts of SLR and storm surge on Collier County.
The Board approved a Resolution of Support for the project on September 13, 2016. The NOAA grant
was awarded and is currently entering the second year. End User teams have been established and are
actively participating in the study process. These stakeholder groups include staff and elected officials
from local government, and local natural and cultural resource managers, to allow specialized
knowledge and expertise to be communicated.
Building on the important work of the NOAA study, there are several other initiatives currently
underway:
1. Congressman Francis Rooney joined the bi-partisan Climate Solutions Caucus. The caucus is
committed to addressing climate-related threats to the American economy, environment,
infrastructure and national security. Congressman Rooney stated that he joined the caucus
because “environmental issues are critical to our Southwest Florida community…To safeguard
our future, proactive planning is necessary to mitigate effects of rising sea levels and increased
intensity of flooding.” Congressman Rooney is also a member of the NOAA project End User
teams and has endorsed the project.
2. Congressman Rooney has introduced a House Resolution “expressing the sense of the House of
Representatives that sea-level rise and flooding are of urgent concern impacting Florida that
require proactive measures for community planning and the State’s tourism-based economy to
adapt.”
3. Update of the rate of rise adopted in the Floodplain Management Plan - An error in the rate of
rise calculation was identified. This rate establishes a minimum standard for planning of
capital projects and other activities. The accuracy of this number is extremely important as it is
the only locally adopted number related to SLR projections at this time. In 2017, staff worked
cooperatively with Climate Central and the professors from FGCU and UF to correct and
update the rate of rise for 2060. On October 10, 2017 this information was presented to the
Board for concurrence and direction to update the number. The revised number of 1.5 feet by
2060 is consistent with the range being used in the NOAA study for the same period. Staff is
continuing to work through the established process to update the Floodplain Management Plan.

Packet Pg. 808 Attachment: SLR Update ES 102318 (7415 : Floodplain Management Planning Committee - November 14, 2018)
10/23/2018
4. Coastal/Beach Resilience Plan - Work is underway to develop a long-term plan to provide
higher and wider beaches, enhanced dunes and plantings, seawalls and other hardened
protective structures, etc. to lessen the impacts of storm surge combined with the
effects of sea level rise. This effort will be closely coordinated with the ongoing
NOAA study and the future Vulnerability and Adaptation efforts described below.
5. Business Stakeholder Meetings - The NOAA project, under facilitation by Dr. Savarese, is
arranging several business community stakeholder meetings. The purpose of these meetings is
to bring key representatives from a number of business sectors together to address their
concerns related to SLR and storminess and to identify their sector’s critical assets t hat are
potentially at risk as we move through the next few decades. Those assets will be cataloged and
mapped on top of the NOAA project’s modeled scenarios. This will improve the business
community’s planning for economic resilience and health. On October 29 and 30, 2018, two
forums will be held, one for the real estate and real estate development professionals, and a
second for the hotel, health, and education communities. In early 2019, four additional, more
in-depth forums are planned for: agribusiness, education and healthcare, real estate, and
tourism.
6. Vulnerability Assessment - Beginning in Year 2 of the NOAA study efforts will commence on
a Vulnerability Assessment for Collier County. This study will help to define and provide an
understanding of the effects of hazardous events. This effort will initially focus on SLR and
storm surge but may form a basis for future analysis of other types of natural and man-made
disasters. This effort will consider the impacts of SLR and storm surge on both the constructed
and natural environments, including critical infrastructure, habitats, affected land uses,
population, etc. This type of assessment often includes tasks related to exposure analysis
(where will SLR occur), sensitivity analysis (who and what will be affected) and focus areas
(where critical infrastructure is located, and/or highly affected population resides). Other tasks
and supporting analysis may also be included in the Vulnerability Assessment, including public
outreach.
7. Adaptation Planning - Scope of Work for future Request for Proposal (RFP) - Dr. Savarese,
along with Collier County staff, representatives from the municipalities and representatives
from natural and cultural resource management agencies will be working together to dr aft a
scope of services for a future RFP for a comprehensive Adaptation Planning effort. This work
will ultimately incorporate and address the findings of the Vulnerability Assessment and will
provide strategies in the areas of comprehensive planning, land development, codes, laws,
infrastructure planning, financial and economic modeling, etc. to implement actions to adapt to
the challenges of SLR and storm surge. This study will provide a framework for greater
community resilience and long-term adaptation strategies. This study will also utilize and build
from the findings and tools provided by the NOAA study. Estimated timeframe to complete
scope and begin solicitation for RFP is late Spring of 2019.
8. Discussions and proposed working group for the establishment of a Southwest Florida
Regional Compact - There have been ongoing conversations related to the viability of forming
a compact on the west coast of Florida similar to the Southeast Florida Regional Climate
Change Compact, formed in 2010. In 2016, the Board supported the concept of continuing
conversations with local municipalities, neighboring Southwest Florida communities and
partnering governmental agencies regarding strategies, partnerships, planning efforts, etc.
related to sea-level rise. On September 27, 2018, staff attended “Planning for the Future Effects
of Sea-Level Rise: A Forum to Discuss Southwest Florida’s Preparedness” on behalf of the
County Manager’s Office, hosted by Florida Gulf Coast University. The forum was attended

Packet Pg. 809 Attachment: SLR Update ES 102318 (7415 : Floodplain Management Planning Committee - November 14, 2018)
10/23/2018
by members of the State Legislature, Congressional representation, local elected officials and
staff from Charlotte, Lee, and Collier Counties, and local municipalities. The conversation
focused on vulnerability, adaptation and mitigation, preparedness, constituent and local
government concerns, cooperation and ways to move forward, etc. and included a presentation
by Dr. Jennifer Jurado, Director and Chief Resiliency Officer, Broward County, who provided
an overview of the history of Southeast Florida Regional Compact, public outreach, current
happenings with the Compact and the upcoming Summit. Dr. Jurado extended an offer to
schedule a workshop with stakeholders to discuss the process of building a Compact. This
workshop will also include participation by other team members that have had an active role in
the establishment and success of the Southeast Florida Regional Compact. In accordance with
Board direction, staff remains engaged in this process and will participate fully in upcoming
events and provide status updates to the County Manager.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no immediate funding request or obligation related to this item. These
activities are currently being resourced with existing staff within the Capital Project Planning, Impact
Fees and Program Management Division of the Growth Management Department. However, as this
process evolves additional staff resources and funding for related planning activities and studies may be
required. Further staff anticipates an update to the Board in early 2019 rel ated to the RFP for
Adaptation Planning, including a funding strategy and request for that effort.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact related to this
request at this time.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed by the County Attorney, raises no legal
issues, and requires majority vote for acceptance. -JAK
RECOMMENDATION: To accept the status report on planning activities and information related to
sea level rise and direct the County Manager to continue to facilitate conversations on a regional
partnership.
