EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation that the Board of County Commissioners adopts an Ordinance amending
Chapter 74 of the Collier County Code of Laws and Ordinances (The Collier County
Consolidated Impact Fee Ordinance) by providing for the incorporation, by reference, of
the impact fee study entitled "Collier County Trip Characteristics Study Mine Land Use,"
amending Schedule One of Appendix A to reflect the new "Mine" land use category and
impact fee rate and providing for a delayed effective date of February 1, 2010 in
accordance with the notice period requirements of Section 163.31801(3)(d) Florida Statutes;
this action is in furtherance to the direction provided by the Board of County
Commissioners on June 23, 2009.
OBJECTIVE: That the Board of County Commissioners (Board) adopts an Ordinance
amending Chapter 74 of the Collier County Code of Laws and Ordinances (Code) by providing
for the incorporation, by reference, of the impact fee study entitled "Collier County Trip
Characteristics Study Mine Land Use," amending Schedule One of Appendix A to reflect the
new "Mine" land use category and impact fee rate and providing for a delayed effective date of
February 1, 2010, in accordance with the notice period requirements of Section 163.31801(3)(d)
Florida Statutes. This action is in furtherance to the direction provided by the Board of County
Commissioners on June 23, 2009 (Item 16B[5]).
— CONSIDERATIONS: Mining activities in Collier County are currently permitted through
Conditional Use applications and excavation permits through Community Development and
Environmental Services (CDES). The impacts to the County's transportation grid are significant
in two critical areas. Heavy haul vehicles place an inordinate burden on the physical
characteristics of the adjacent roadway network and throughout the area by stressing the
structural integrity of the roadway shoulders on rural roads. They further impact the roads by
pushing the top layer of asphalt (friction course) and wash boarding the structural course as they
stop at intersections and along the roadways. Heavy haul vehicles also consume roadway
capacity at almost twice the rate of passenger cars. It can be particularly detrimental at
intersections where the heavy haul vehicles require significantly more time to accelerate and
maneuver than is required by a passenger vehicle.
The County currently addresses the physical impacts to the road by allowing the mining site the
option of maintaining the structural integrity of the roadway around their area of significant
influence or by contributing $1.00 (one dollar) to road maintenances for every loaded vehicle
exiting the site. The County does not currently have an impact fee in place that addresses the
replacement of roadway capacity; therefore, Tindale- Oliver and Associates, Inc., was retained to
complete a full study of mining operations including trip generation rate, average trip length, and
percent new trips. Trip generation is calculated using the permitted cubic yards of material over
the life of a mine, and the average trip length and percent new trips were obtained through
origin- destination surveys at the local active mining sites. Attached is the full report that
documents the impact fee which would be associated with mining activities. It should be noted
that most mining facilities, once exhausted, convert to a secondary use such as residential
lakefront housing. Heritage Bay provides a good example. Impact fees paid for by the mining

site would be tracked as a credit that runs with the land that could be used if and when the site
converts to another land use.
The County Attorney's Office and County staff have worked extensively with the consultant and
the County's outside legal counsel (Nabors, Giblin & Nickerson, P.A.) to develop a fair and
legally defensible impact fee for the Mine land use. The result is a Collier County proposed rate
of $14.18 per 1,000 cubic yards. As a comparison, Lee County has an adopted rate of $40 per
1,000 cubic yards. While the proposed rate is lower than the $30 per 1,000 cubic yards that was
provided to the Board in the preliminary report, staff agrees that the lower rate is fitting at this
time. The lower rate reflects an elimination of a 1.5 multiplying factor for large trucks. While
the factor is appropriate, it must be reviewed and included in all land uses that contain a
significant portion of large trucks as part of their daily trip generation in order to be considered.
The next full transportation impact fee update will address the truck factor within all pertinent
categories.
The item was presented to the Development Services Advisory Committee (DSAC) and the
Productivity Committee. DSAC was split 5 to 5 on the new rate category and the Productivity
Committee voted 7 to 2 in support of the new rate category.
FISCAL IMPACT: The inclusion of this new category on the Road Impact Fee rate schedule
will provide a uniform fee of $14.18 per 1,000 cubic yards of permitted excavation. This fee will
be assessed to new excavation permits and expansion of existing excavation permits applied for
on or after February 1, 2010.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: This change is consistent with Objective 1.2 of the
Capital Improvement Element (CIE) of the Collier County Growth Management Plan (GMP),
which states: "Future development will bear a proportionate cost of facility improvements
necessitated by growth."
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The proposed Ordinance was reviewed by both outside
counsel and the County Attorney and is legally sufficient for Board action. - JAK
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners adopts an Ordinance
amending Chapter 74 of the Collier County Code of Laws and Ordinances by providing for the
incorporation, by reference, of the impact fee study entitled "Collier County Trip Characteristics
Study Mine Land Use," amending Schedule One of Appendix A to reflect the new "Mine" land
use category and impact fee rate and providing for a delayed effective date of February 1, 2010,
in accordance with the notice period requirements of Section 163.31801(3)(d) Florida Statutes.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
Collier County retained Tindale- Oliver & Associates, Inc. to conduct a trip characteristics
study for mine land use that measures the trip length and percent new trips. This summary
report presents the results of the trip data collected for the mine land use in Collier County,
which will be used to develop travel demand for the mine land use based on typical mine
developments in Collier County. Included in this document is a summary of the trip
characteristics study results, as well as the necessary support material utilized in the
development of the summary statistics.
Trip characteristics are inputs to the demand component of the Collier County
transportation impact fee equation that measures the demand for travel placed on the
transportation system per unit of development. This travel demand is usually expressed in
units of vehicle miles or lane miles of roadway capacity consumed. In particular, the three
variables needed to obtain the measure of vehicle miles traveled (VMT) in Collier County
for any given land use are:
• Number of daily trips generated, or the trip rate (this variable was previously
calculated by TOA, and as such, is not part of this study. Appendix B includes an
explanation of how the trip generation rate was determined);
• Length of those trips; and
• Proportion of travel that is new travel, rather than travel that is estimated to have
already been on the road system, referred to as percent new trips.
2.0 SITE SELECTION
Study sites were selected based on an evaluation of mine capacity and location within the
County as well as discussions with County staff.
2.1 Mines Land Use
Surveys were conducted at the following three sites:
• Site 1, Golden Gate Mine, which is located in the east central portion of the County;
• Site 2, Jones Mine, which is located in the northern half of the County; and
• Site 3, Sunniland Mine, which is located in the northeast quadrant of the County.

3.0 SAMPLE SIZE REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS
Due to the small number of survey samples obtained, the typical confidence test to
determine the required sample size did not apply to this data collection effort. The entire
population of potential inbound and outbound trips were surveyed and provided a
representative sample of mine trucking travel in Collier County. Discussions with site
management at all three sites confirmed that the job tickets issued at the time of the
origin- destination survey data collection were typical of average trip lengths in Collier
County.
4.0 TRIP CHARACTERISTICS RESULTS
Results of the trip characteristics surveys are summarized in Tables 1 and 2. These tables
provide information regarding the percent new trips and average trip length for each of
the mines previously referenced. As mentioned previously, the trip generation rate was
estimated through a separate analysis. Data resulting from the trip characteristics surveys
are included in Appendix A of this report and, are used in the development of the demand
component of the transportation impact fee calculation for the mine land use.
4.1 Trip Generation Rate
The trip generation rate for the mine land use was prepared by TOA previously, and is
summarized in Appendix B. Based on these findings, the resulting weighted average trip
generation rate for the mine land use is 0.010 trips per 1,000 cubic yards. This figure is
based on the estimate of 16 cubic yards per truck.
4.2 Percent New Trips
The percentage of new trips computed from the survey data collected. The weighted
average percent new trips is obtained by weighting the percent new trips of each site by
the number of surveys used. For each site, the percent new trips is calculated by first
classifying all trips as either a captured trip, primary trip, diverted trip, or secondary trip.
The percentage of the combined primary, diverted, and secondary trips of the total trips
classified is the percent new trips. This methodology for classifying trips was published
by Bill Oliver (TOA Senior Vice President) in the ITE article Measuring Travel
Characteristics for Transportation Impact Fees, in April, 1991.

The results indicated that the percent new trips to the mine land use ranged from 90
percent to 100 percent. As shown in Table 1, the resulting weighted average percent new
trips is 97 percent for the mine land use.

4.3 Trip Length
The second variable obtained from the trip characteristics study is trip length. To
calculate the weighted average trip length from the data collected in Collier County, the
average trip length for each site is weighted by the number of assessable trip ends
obtained from the surveys collected at the study site.
Table 2 presents the weighted average trip length obtained from the collected survey data.
As shown, mine land use trip lengths range from 8.07 miles to 17.33 miles. As shown in
Table 2, the resulting weighted average trip length for the mine land use is 14.82 miles.
The results of the data reduction process are presented in detail in Appendix A, including
survey number, trip type, inbound and outbound trip lengths, and assessable trip length that
assesses all data plus or minus three standard deviations of the mean and excluding
resulting data that lie outside this range. Note that trip type is denoted as "C" for captured,
"P" for primary, "D" for diverted, and "S" for secondary. Also, the limit check denotes
"OK" if the inbound and outbound trip lengths lie within three standard deviations of the
mean and are, thus, assessable lengths, or "NO" if the trip lengths are considered outliers
and are excluded from the assessable trip length calculation.
As shown in Appendix A, Tables A -1 through A -3 present the results of the survey at the
three selected sites.

4.4 Impact Fee Calculation
This section provides the calculation of the net impact fee for the mine land use using
information from the adopted impact fee methodology summarized in the Collier County
Transportation Impact Fee Final Report, February 2009 and the results of the study
presented previously. The following equations are utilized to calculate the net impact fee:
Net Impact Fee = Total Impact Cost — Total Credit
Where:
Total Impact Cost = ((Trip Rate x Assessable Trip Length x %New Trips) /2) x (1— Interstate/Toll Facility
Adj. Factor) x (Cost per Lane Mile l Avg. Capacity Added per Lane Mile)
Gas Tax Credit = Present Value (Annual Gas Tax), given 4.5% interest rate & 25 -year facility life
Annual Gas Tax = (((Trip Rate x Total Trip Length x %New Trips) 12) x Effective Days per Year x
$ /Gallon to Capital) /Fuel Efficiency
Ad Valorem Tax Credit = Calculated based on average taxable value of each unit and portion of ad valorem
tax revenues used for transportation capacity projects
Each of the inputs has been discussed previously in this document and in the referenced
Collier County transportation impact fee study; however, for purposes of this example
and because adjustments were made to some of the variables to account for the fact that
mines primarily attract trucks, brief definitions for each input are provided in the

following paragraphs, along with the actual inputs used in the calculation of the mine
land use category:
• Trip Rate = the average daily trip generation rate, in vehicle-trips/day on a per 1,000 cubic yards
basis (0.010)
• Assessable Trip Length = the actual average trip length for the category, in vehicle -miles (14.82)
• Total Trip Length = the recommended trip length plus an adjustment factor of half a mile, which is
added to the trip length to account for the fact that gas taxes are collected for travel on all roads
including local roads (14.82 + 0.50 = 15.32)
• % New Trips = adjustment factor to account for trips that are already on the roadway (97 %)
• Divide by 2 = the total daily miles of travel generated by a particular category (i.e., rate *length *%
new trips) is divided by two to prevent the double- counting of travel generated among land use codes
since every trip has an origin and a destination.
• Interstate /Toll Facility Adjustment Factor = adjustment factor to account for the travel demand
occurring on interstate highways and /or toll facilities (27.3 %). It should be noted that this factor has
been calculated for the truck traffic separately, and results in a more conservative impact fee. Please
see Appendix B for further explanation.
• Cost per Lane Mile = unit cost to construct one lane mile of roadway, in S/]ane -mile ($6,255,570)
• Average Capacity Added per Lane Mile = represents the average daily traffic on one travel lane at
maximum level of service volume for one lane mile of roadway, in vehicles,lane- mile /day (10,217)
• present 6'alue = calculation of the present value of a uniform series of cash flows, gas tax payments
in this case, given an interest rate, "i," and a number of periods, "n;'' for 4.5% interest and a 25 -year
facility life, the uniform series present worth factor is 14.8282
• Effective Days per Year = 365 days
• SIGallon to Capital = the amount of gas tax revenue per gallon of fuel that is used for capital
improvements, in $/gallon ($0.258). This factor takes into consideration that the 2 'a Local Option
Gas Tax is not imposed on diesel fuel.
• Fuel Efficiency = average fuel efficiency of vehicles, in vehicle - miles /gallon (5.9). This factor is
recalculated to represent trucks' fuel efficiency. Please see Appendix B for further explanation.
Using these inputs, a net impact fee can be calculated for the mine land use category as
follows.
Total Impact Cost = ((0.010 * 14.82 * 0.97) i2) * (1 - 0.273) * ($6,255,570/10,217) _
$31.99
Annual Gas Tax = (((0.010 * 15.32 * 0.97)12) * 365 * $0.258) /5.9 = $1.19
Gas Tax Credit = $1.19 * 14.8282 = $17.65
Ad Valorem Tax Credit = $0.16
Net Impact Fee (per 1,000 cubic yards) = $31.99 - $17.65 - $0.16 = $14.18
Table 3 presents sample impact fee calculations for three of the sites that were used to
collect origin- destination survey data based on the approved tonnage (in increments of
per 1,000 cubic yards) in the mining permits for each respective site. The table also
provides the equivalency of the impact fee amount in ternis of the number of single

�.. family homes. As with any other land use, the impact fee for mines runs with the land,
and therefore, the fee for mines could be viewed as a pre - payment since previously paid
impact fees would be credited against the impact fee that will be owed by future
developments on the same site. As presented, the fee calculated for the 833 -acre site
(Site 1 in Table 3) would be equivalent of paying an impact fee for 11 homes that could
be developed on the same site. Similarly, the fees calculated for the other two mines
would equal to paying impact fees for 21 and 46 homes. Given the large acreage of
mines, it is highly likely that the total number of homes built on these sites will easily
exceed the equivalent number of homes shown in Table 3.

Collier County Trip Generation Rate, Interstate Adjustment Factor, and
Fuel Efficiency Calculations for Mines
Agenda Item No. 17B

Trip Generation Determination
There are several variables to consider related to mining truck trips, such as:
• Size of mine, in acres
• Depth of excavation, in feet
• Volume of mine, in cubic yards (CY)
• Anticipated duration of mine, in years
• Truck hauling capacity per load
• Days of hauling per week
• Truck to passenger car equivalency factor
TOA reviewed the following material for the trip generation calculations:
• Lee County Truck Impact Evaluation Report (David Douglas and Associates,
July 2008), which was used as the basis for the calculation of the mine land
use transportation impact fee in Lee County;
• Four mining traffic impact statements including:
• Gardiner Earth Mine — Hendry County;
• Hogan Island Mine — Collier County;
• SR 846 Land Trust Mine — Collier County; and
o Good Grove Mine — Manatee County.
• Permitting information for the existing mines in Collier County; and
• Annual reports from the three existing mines in Collier County.
In addition, TOA interviewed the operators of the three mines where trip characteristics
surveys were conducted to obtain additional information.
Based on this review, it became apparent that trip activity to and from mines is very
volatile and depends heavily on demand for material extracted. In addition, the
amount of material leaving a mine is limited by the loading rates and truck weighing
rates across the scales, measured in trucks per minute. Information provided by the
representatives of the three mines where the trip characteristics studies were
conducted indicated that these mines have the capability to load 18, 40 and 50 trucks
per hour, which results in an average loading capacity of 36 trucks per hour, or 1.7
minutes per truck, with a range of 1.2 minutes to 3.3 minutes per truck.

Page 27 of 29
The study made the following assumptions for a typical mine:
• 40 -year life span;
• 8 -hour work days; and
• 6 -day work weeks.
These assumptions resulted in an average loading time of 3 minutes per truck for the
largest of the three mines surveyed (with a capacity of approximately 33.6 million
cubic yards of material). For the smaller mines, the same assumptions resulted in an
average loading time of 6.5 minutes (for the mine with a capacity of 15 million cubic
yards), and 12 minutes (mine with a capacity of 7.8 million cubic yards). As
presented, these loading times are well within the capabilities of each mine, and the
assumptions result in more conservative results as the mine capacity decreases.
Many of the traffic impact statements distributed an anticipated mining volume over
an estimated duration of mining activities. This method is reasonable for determining
level of service impacts for local network improvements. As explained above, for
this impact fee analysis the time period or "life of the mine" is assumed to be 40 years
to develop the needed trip generation rate that goes into the impact fee calculation.
The total 40 year annualized trip rate is 0.010 trips per 1,000 cubic yards (including
-°° an equivalent truck to car factor of 1.0) for trucks. It should be noted that an
equivalency factor of 1.5 to 2.0 represents the industry standard and used more
frequently; however, to provide a conservative estimate, Collier County preferred
using a truck to car equivalency factor of 1.0. It is the intention of the County to
conduct a separate analysis in the future to determine a more accurate estimate of the
equivalency factor, which could then be used to revise the impact fee calculations for
the mine land use.
The trip generation from light vehicles (employees, etc.) was found to be negligible.
Because of this and to provide a conservative approach, these trips were not added to
truck trips.
The trip generation rate used for gas tax credit calculation does not use the conversion
to cars factor since the fuel efficiency factor for gas tax calculations is already
adjusted for trucks. As such, the necessary figure for this calculation is the number of
trucks, and not the equivalent number of cars.

Interstate/Toll Facility Adjustment Factor
This variable is used to recognize that Interstate highway and toll facility improvements
are funded by the State using earmarked State and Federal funds. Typically, impact fees
are not used to pay for these improvements and the portion of travel occurring on the
interstate /toll facility system is usually eliminated from the total travel for each use.
Currently, I -75 is the only interstate running through the County. This factor is used to
reduce vehicle miles of travel that the impact fee charges for each land use.
The transportation impact fee study calculates this factor at 8.4 percent, based on the data
from the 2030 Lee /Collier Transportation Planning model on the vehicle miles of travel
(VMT) on I -75 relative to the total VMT on the entire functionally classified roadway
network. However, given that the trucks use interstates more heavily than cars, this factor
is adjusted to 27.3 percent. This adjustment is based on the origin- destination information
obtained during the trip characteristics surveys.
Fuel Efficiency
The fuel efficiency level is used to calculate the gas tax credit component of the
transportation impact fee. The fuel efficiency figure used in the Collier County
Transportation Impact Fee Final Report, February 2009 calculated a combined fuel
efficiency for cars, vans, and trucks, and resulted in 17.85 miles per gallon. Given that the
fuel efficiency of trucks is lower than cars and vans, a separate figure is calculated for the
mines. A fuel efficiency level of 5.90 miles per gallon is calculated for mines, which
increased the gas tax credit and reduced the impact fee.
