Agenda 07/09/2019 Item #16A12 (Resolution - SFWMD Grant Applications)07/09/2019
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve submittal of two (2) Stormwater Management Improvement Project
grant applications to the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) Big Cypress Basin
Local Partnership Grants Program for FY 2020 and a Resolution supporting the County’s
application.
OBJECTIVE: To receive approval and support from the Board of County Commissioners to submit two
(2) grant applications to the South Florida Water Management District for Stormwater Management
Improvements for the following projects: Freedom Park Ditch Stormwater Improvements and Phase 1
Griffin Road Area Stormwater Management Improvement.
CONSIDERATION: The annual Big Cypress Basin (BCB) Local Partnership Grant submittal process
has been announced. The BCB Partnership Grant cycle provides funding support County and City
stormwater management/water quality, alternative water supply and water conservation projects. The
application deadline is August 16, 2019. The BCB requires that all grant applications be approved by the
local government prior to submittal and supported through Resolution. In addition to being approved by
the local government, the project should be “shovel-ready” and completed within a 24-month period.
The following projects have been prioritized and determined to meet the criteria for BCB funding:
1. Freedom Park Stormwater Ditch Improvements. Proposed improvements will widen the ditch
and add spreader swales into the treatment facility to improve water quality prior to stormwater
entering the Gordon River. The estimated construction cost is $1,850,000.
2. Phase 1 of the Griffin Road Area Stormwater Management Improvement Project (Barefoot
Williams Road Improvements). Proposed improvements will increase flows in the ditch along
the east side of Barefoot-Williams Road by upsizing three driveway culverts, upsizing the cross-
drain under Price Street, and upsizing the inlet structure to a cross -drain where the ditch ends at
the northeast corner of the Artesia development. The estimated construction cost is $450,000.
FISCAL IMPACT: The amount of funding applied for from Big Cypress Basin is $975,000 for Freedom
Park Stormwater Ditch Improvements with a local match commitment of $975,000 and $225,000 for
Phase 1 of the Griffin Road Area Stormwater Management Improvement Project with a local match
commitment of $225,000. If funds from Big Cypress Basin are awarded, the local match will be available
within the Stormwater Capital Improvement Fund 325. The source of funds is transfers from the Gen eral
Fund (001) and Unincorporated Area General Fund (111).
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved for form and legality and requires a majority vote
for Board action. - JAB

PROJECT DETAILS
1.Provide a high-level description (several sentences) of the project.
The Griffin Road Area Stormwater Management Improvement Project (GRASIP) will
address recurring flooding problems in the Griffin Road/Barefoot-Williams Road area of east
Naples. The project location is south of US-41 and generally includes properties on both
the east and west sides of Barefoot-Williams Road. The area is mostly residential with a
mixture of mobile homes, recreational travel trailers, low density rural and development with
single family lots. The low density rural properties utilize wells and septic systems. The
objective of the project is to install infrastructure to enable appropriate and desired
stormwater flows to reach wetlands within the Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research
Reserve through a specifically permitted and previously constructed bypass channel along
the northern perimeter of the Artesia development. This will also reduce the frequency and
extent of flooding in the GRASIP area. The construction plans are complete and the
SFWMD permit has been obtained.
2.Please attach the following:
a.At least one letter-sized figure that depicts the project location in relation to the nearest
major road intersection
b.At least one letter-sized figure that depicts project details and illustrates information
provided in the Statement of Work
c.A GIS shapefile or AutoCAD dwg file per Florida State East Zone, NAD83 HARN, US

3.Provide a description for the project, which may be used to create contract
documents if selected, that includes:
a.Relevant Background Information
The GRASIP concept was initiated years ago between the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection Rookery Bay National Estuary Research Reserve
(RBNERR), South Florida Water Management District and Collier County as the
Artesia development was under conceptual design and permitting with SFWMD.
Lack of available funding along with the construction slowdown in the mid-2000’s
interrupted the coordination and continuity of the GRASIP concept. The result was
partial construction of some components, alteration of historical flow direction and
volume, and increased flooding potential within the overall GRASIP project area.
b.Purpose or Objective(s)
The GRASIP Phase 1 project addresses flood control by providing for increased
flow capacity in the Barefoot-Williams Road east side ditch, thus reducing peak
stormwater stages in the ditch and reducing overbank flooding of adjacent
properties. The natural system/water quality benefit is achieved as that additional
flow is able to enter into the Artesia bypass flowway system. While passing through
the bypass system it is able to enhance a wetland preserve area and receive water
quality treatment via nutrient uptake of wetland vegetative species along the channel
as well as residence time within two lakes before discharging via a lake spreader
system into additional wetlands on RBNERR property.
c.Statement of Work
The Griffin Road Phase 1 project consists of increasing flows in the ditch along the
east side of Barefoot-Williams Road by upsizing of three driveway culverts, upsizing
the cross-drain under Price Street, and upsizing the inlet structure to a cross-drain
where the ditch ends at the northeast corner of the Artesia development.
4.Explain how the project aligns with the District’s mission.
The GRASIP Phase 1 project aligns with the Big Cypress Basin Strategic Plan in the areas
of flood control and natural systems/water quality. The project is the initial County
construction project to redirect the distribution of stormwater flows in the desired quantities
and locations to the RBNERR.
5.Explain how the project aligns with other applicable plans such as a watershed
protection plan, basin management plan, total maximum daily load allocation, or
stormwater improvement master plan.
The GRASIP project aligns with the Southwest Florida Comprehensive Watershed Plan for
water quality and directing fresh water flow to a freshwater-starved estuary.
6.Describe measurable community or environmental benefits of this project with
respect to relevant considerations (improvement of water quality and/or quantity and
benefits to natural systems; degree of flood protection and/or resource protection).
Please include specific details such as estimated mass of nutrient/contaminant
reductions (parts per billion, pounds per day/year) or removal efficiencies, area of
natural systems to be restored or enhanced (acres), level of service attributes,
conveyance capacity (CFS), and/or volume of storage (acre-feet). Please include all
calculations.

The degree of flood protection provided by the GRASIP Phase 1 project will bring the
Barefoot-Williams Road ditch capacity up to approximately the 10-yr/72hr design storm
level. Subsequent phases, with their additional capacities to distribute stormwater into
other RBNERR wetlands, are intended to bring the area up to approximately the 25-
year/72hr design storm level. The GRASIP Phase 1 project is intended to pass 30 cfs into
the Artesia bypass flowway system, which aligns with the current permitted intent. The
areas of natural systems to be restored, estimated nutrient reductions, etc. were all part of
the Artesia development process and were not specifically calculated by the GRASIP
Phase 1 project.

2. POLICIES AND GUIDELINES
Local Project Grant Program Objective
The Big Cypress Basin Board’s (BCBB) objective is to assist local governments, public
and private water providers and other entities with the construction or implementation of
stormwater management, alternative water supply and water conservation projects that
support or compliment the South Florida Water Management District’s (District) mission.
There are three types of projects eligible for funding through the program: stormwater
management/water quality (SM/WQ), alternative water supply (AWS), and water
conservation (WC). SM/WQ projects are typically associated with water quality
improvements, infrastructure improvement, natural system restoration, storage, and flood
protection. SM/WQ projects focus on improving water quality and the quantity,
distribution, or timing of flows. AWS projects are associated with development of non-
traditional water sources and/or storage to meet current and future demands for water.
WC projects are associated with the use of hardware and/or technology to increase water
use efficiency.
District Mission
The District mission is to safeguard and restore South Florida’s water resources and
ecosystems, protect our communities f rom flooding and meet the region’s water needs
while connecting with the public and stakeholders . The BCB supports that mission by
assisting our local partners with projects that improve stormwater management/water
quality, supports alternative water supply development and water conservation.
General Local Project Grant Funding Program Overview
The following is provided as guidance for applicants to the Basin’s grant program. Each
application must be accompanied by a resolution from the appropriate governing board
(council/commission) expressing support and funding for the project. If an agency submits

• Expenses associated with the preparation, submission, or presentation of the
Application
• Contributions or donations to other organizations
Withdrawal of Application/Project
Applicants may withdraw their submitted application by notifying the Basin either in writing
or in person through an authorized representative at any time . Applications, once
received, become the property of the Basin. Applications are not returned to the Applicant
even if withdrawn from consideration.
Application Development Costs
Neither the Basin nor its representatives shall be liable for any expenses incurred thro ugh
the preparation, submission, or presentation of the funding Application, nor shall said
expenses be reimbursed using program funds (see non -allowable costs section above).
All information in the Application shall be provided at no cost to the Basin.
Aw ard
The Applicant understands that the Application does not constitute a contract or purchase
order with the District. No contract or purchase order is binding or official until applications
are reviewed and accepted by the Basin, approved by the District GB, and the Parties
duly execute an official contract or purchase order. The Basin/District reserves the right
not to issue any funding whatsoever, if it is in the best interest of the Basin/District.
Guidelines for maximum reimbursement cooperative fundin g amounts and percentages
for each project type have been established by the Basin and District GB. Funding can
generally be up to 50 percent of the project’s construction/implementation cost or the
funding maximum, whichever is less.
Funds are awarded based on estimated project costs as reported in the Application. The
Basin may prorate and reduce the funding amount if the project scope is not 100 percent
(100%) completed as outlined in the Statement of Work. In no event shall the Basin’s
funding amount exceed percentages of the actual expenditures approved in the
agreement/contract by the District GB. If actual construction costs are less than estimated
construction costs this may result in a reduced award. During project closeout, actual
costs must be accounted for and supported by evidence including, but not limited to,
completion/certification letter, vendor invoices/pay applications, check payments, records
for all in-kind services and verification project completion. Failure to supply evidence of
all financial expenditures will result in the withholding of funds by the Basin/District.
Funding Compliance Review
The Basin will ensure the proper use of funding by requiring applicants to comply with
the terms and conditions of the contract(s) or purchase order(s). Additionally, the Basin
will ensure compliance through:
16.A.12.c

relevant documentation from the third party to support reimbursement.
3. PROJECT TYPES – SPECIFIC GUIDELINES
Stormwater Management/Water Quality Projects
The focus of the LGP SM/WQ component is to cost-share construction ready projects
that address water quality and quantity, distribution, and timing of flows. The Basin seeks
applicants who will implement projects that treat stormwater run -off prior to entering
surface waters, as well as in-lake or in-stream water quality improvements through
implementation of best management practices (BMPs). The Basin seeks to leverage
funds and incentivize local governments to address water quality within watersheds and
associated natural systems of the region.
Priorities for SM/WQ projects include:
• Areas discharging to an impaired water body
• Areas with Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) allocations
• Areas identified in a Basin Management Action Plan (BMAP)
• Areas identified within a Surface Water Improvement and Management Plan
• Projects identified in a local government stormwater master plan
• Projects that have major watershed benefits such as regional solutions
SM/WQ projects should be designed to reduce the load of nutrients and quantity of water
discharging to bays, rivers, lakes, streams, and canals and/or improve the distribution or
timing of water discharging to rivers, lakes streams, and canals. Applicants may propose
projects that provide additional benefits such as flood protection, infrastructure
improvement, natural system restoration, and storage but should address water quality.
Allowable Costs for SM/WQ Projects Include:
• Construction – including control structures, drainage catch basins, exfiltration
trenches, stormwater treatment areas, stormwater catch basin inserts or other
stormwater conveyance system features
Non-Allowable Costs for SM Projects Include:
• Planning, design, studies, modeling, and as-built plans
• Wetlands mitigation plans or credits
• Projects that are out of compliance with permit conditions or are proposed to bring
a facility back into compliance or proposed as settlement for enforcement activities
• Projects utilized for compensatory treatment (Environmental Resource Permits) or
required by an enforcement and/or compliance action

Alternative Water Supply Projects
The focus of the LGP AWS component is to cost share on projects that provide alternative
water supply. Meeting the growing need for water hinges on our efforts to develop water
sources that offer an alternative to traditional fresh groundwater and surface water.
Alternative water sources are important to Florida’s future and help communities diversify
supply sources and reduce reliance on regional freshwater sources, which in turn make
them less susceptible to the effects of drought.
One of the objectives of the LGP is to support the Lower West Coast Water Supply Plan.
The goal of the LWCWSP is to identify sufficient sources of water to meet existing and
projected reasonable and beneficial uses while sustaining water resources and related
natural systems. Objectives in the LWCWSP include increase available water supplies,
maximize overall water use efficiency, and reduce reliance on traditional water sources
through development of alternative water supplies including nontraditional sources .
These sources include saltwater or brackish water, reclaimed or recycled water, surface
water captured during heavy rainfalls, sources made available through addition of new
storage capacity, storm water (for use by consumptive use permittee), and any other
source designated as nontraditional in a WSP. Water supply plans contain guidance to
meet the plans goals and objectives, which include:
• Water users encouraged to develop alternative sources
• Increase water use efficiency through effective water conservation
• Explore Aquifer Storage and Recovery for storage to extend water availability
during peak demand periods
• Construct storage of reclaimed water to extend use of seasonal water supplies and
interconnects
• Utilize membrane treatment concentrate water beneficially including blending it
with reclaimed water
• Increase reuse through construction of additional reclaimed water lines for
landscape irrigation
• Construct new or retrofitted surface water storage systems for agricultural
operations
• Lower West Coast – Development of alternative sources to minimize saltwater
intrusion potential
Allowable Costs for AWS Projects Include:
• Alternative water supply raw water transmission lines
• Reclaimed water storage tanks
• Reverse osmosis (RO) trains, pumps, and associated appurtenances
• ASR wells, brackish water production wells, concentrate disposal wells associated
with development of an AWS source

PROJECT DETAILS
1. Provide a high-level description (several sentences) of the project.
Freedom Park is a 50-acre natural water quality treatment facility on the west side of the
Gordon River that provides flooding relief and tertiary treatment of stormwater runoff from
surrounding neighborhoods. During heavy rain events stormwater accumulates in
residential areas due to inadequate stormwater conveyance structures to move the
stormwater toward the treatment facility and eventually the Gordon River. The Freedom
Park Stormwater Ditch which runs along the northern border of the treatment facility needs
improvement in order to move stormwater more efficiently into the natural wetlands on the
east end of the property before entering the Gordon River.
2. Please attach the following:
a. At least one letter-sized figure that depicts the project location in relation to the nearest
major road intersection
b. At least one letter-sized figure that depicts project details and illustrates information
provided in the Statement of Work
c. A GIS shapefile or AutoCAD dwg file per Florida State East Zone, NAD83 HARN, US
Survey feet of the project location or latitude/longitude: 26°10’32”N 81°47’21”W
3. Provide a description for the project, which may be used to create contract
documents if selected, that includes:
a. Relevant Background Information

To help reduce loading to Naples Bay, the Freedom Park was constructed in 2009
as a water quality park consisting of ponds, wetlands, polishing marshes, habitat
restoration, and man-made passive recreational park features. The project was
funded by grants from SFWMD/BCB and Florida Communities Trust.
b. Purpose or Objective(s)
The objective is to increase water management efficiency of into the Freedom
Park Ditch and create a spreader swale system allowing better distribution of
stormwater flow into the natural wetland system on the east end of the park prior
to entering the Gordon River. c.Statement of Work
Improvements include widening the ditch, installing a new larger weir and
constructing a spreader swale from the ditch into the natural wetlands..
4. Explain how the project aligns with the District’s mission.
The Freedom Park Ditch project aligns with the Big Cypress Basin Strategic Plan in the
areas of flood control and natural systems/water quality.
5. Explain how the project aligns with other applicable plans such as a watershed
protection plan, basin management plan, total maximum daily load allocation, or
stormwater improvement master plan.
The project aligns with Collier County’s Watershed Management Plan (WMP) which aims
to protect water resources by reducing excessive fresh water discharges into Naples Bay.
6. Describe measurable community or environmental benefits of this project with
respect to relevant considerations (improvement of water quality and/or quantity and
benefits to natural systems; degree of flood protection and/or resource protection).
Please include specific details such as estimated mass of nutrient/contaminant
reductions (parts per billion, pounds per day/year) or removal efficiencies, area of
natural systems to be restored or enhanced (acres), level of service attributes,
conveyance capacity (CFS), and/or volume of storage (acre-feet). Please include all
calculations.
The degree of flood protection provided by the Freedom Park Ditch improvements will
bring capacity up to approximately the 25-year/3-day design storm level. As part of a
comprehensive Gordon River Master Plan, the combination of stormwater improvements
are estimated to bring a flood stage reduction of 2.18 feet at the Freedom Park Ditch
location.
