EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation that the Board of County Commissioners (Board) approve an Easement
Use Agreement for the existing drainage easement at 158 San Rafael Lane
OBJECTIVE: To approve the attached Easement Use Agreement (hereinafter called
Agreement) for an existing pool, deck, and screen enclosure encroachment into a drainage
easement and allow the owner to continue to use the drainage easement under the terms of the
Agreement. Upon approval, the owner shall record the Agreement in the Official Records of
Collier County.
CONSIDERATIONS: The owner of the property located at 158 San Rafael Lane desires to
make repairs to the existing sereen enclosure over the pool and deck. In the course of applying
for the proper building permit to make thesc repairs, it was discovered that there is an
encroachment into the existing drainage casement on the property. The desired building permit
cannot be issued until the easement cncroaehment is resolved. When the original pool and
screen enclosure huilding permits wcrc obtain cd in 1994, there was no information provided to
show the existence of the drainage easement.
The drainage eascment contains a 12" diametcr storm drain as part of the development's
stormwater managcment system. The storm drainage pipe appears to have continued to function
since the pool, deck and screen enclosure were constructed in 1994. The encroachment extends
beyond the pipe location. so a partial vacation of the drainage easement is not practical to resolve
the encroachment. The County Attorncy has recommended the use of an Agreement to resolve
the existing encroachment. Thc San Rafael Homeowners Association, Inc. has review and
approved the Agrcement.
A third, and undesirable option, is to require the owner to remove the encroaching portions of the
pool, deck and screen enclosure. Staff does not recommend the removal option if the
Agreement, with the conditions [or approval, is deemed acceptable to the Board.
FISCAL IMPACT: None
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: None
LEGAL CONSIDERA nONS:
RECOMMENDA nON: That the Board approve the attached Easement Use Agreement and
direct the County Manager or his designee to have the owner of 158 San Rafael Lane record the
document in the Official Records to run with title of the land.

This Easement Use Agreement (The "Agreement") is made as of this _ day of

thereof as recorded in Plat Book 20, Pages 53 and 54, of the Public Records of Collier County,
Florida (hereinafter the "Subject Property"); and
WHEREAS, as set forth in Plat Book 20, Page 54, there is a I 0.95 foot Drainage Easement
held by the San Rafael Homeowners Association, Inc. (with responsibility for maintenance) and
Collier County (without responsibility for maintenance) which burdens the westernmost I 0,95 feet
of the of the southwestern portion of the Subject Property (hereinafter the "Easement''); and
WHEREAS, in April 1994, application was made for, and the County approved, pennits to
construct a pool, deck and screen enclosure on the Subject property including within the Easement,
and the pennit applications made no reference to the existence of the Easement; and
WHEREAS the Easement contains a twelve (12) inch diameter storm drainage pipe
necessary to convey stormwater runoff from the rear of the lot to the storm drain along San Rafael
Lane, and this drain has continued to function since 1994 with the existing pool, deck and screen
enclosure encroachment in the Easement; and
WHEREAS, Ms. Zuidema wishes to renovate the existing screen enclosure which requires
resolution of the Easement encroachment before a County building permit can be approved; and
WHEREAS, the location of existing buildings, pool, deck, screen enclosure and storm
drainage pipe preclude the use of a partial easement vacation to eliminate the encroachment, thus
leaving the development of an Easement Use Agreement as the preferred option to resolve the
encroachment; and
WHEREAS, the San Rafael HOA and the County have no objections to the existing
encroachment of a pool, deck and screen enclosure within the Easement, provided that Ms.
Zuidema agrees to the terms and conditions set forth below, by which terms and conditions Ms.

2. Ms. Zuidema (or successor) will give the San Rafael HOA and County whatever access
the San Rafael HOA and County (in the event it is necessary) require to maintain the existing
drainage equipment.
3. Ms. Zuidema (or successor) agrees to waive any claim of damage to the Subject
Property, and to the pool and screen enclosure situated thereon, arising out of the San Rafael
HOA's or County's (in the event it is necessary) maintenance of the drainage equipment, whether
such damage is intentional or unintentional.
4. Both the San Rafael HOA and the County (in the event it is necessary) will exercise
diligent effort to provide maintenance and eventual replacement to the storm drainage pipe in a

the pool and screen enclosure removal and reconstruction.

successor) may continue to encumber the Easement with a pool, deck and screen enclosure that do

from receipt of such reqnest.
6. This Easement Use Agreement shall be recorded in the Public Records of Collier

Ms. Zuidema's sole cost and expense. This Agreement is intended to bind the parties, together
with their respective successors, assigns and heirs.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date
