EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This item requires that ex parte disclosure be provided by commission members. A
resolution approving with conditions petition CCSL-2008-0l/AR-12598 requesting a
variance from the Coastal Construction Setback Line (CCSL) to allow for the construction
of two chickee hut concession stands, replacement and expansion of an existing park
entrance administrative office, and paved drop-off lane addition to the park road, all of
which are located on the property known as Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park with a street
address of 11135 Gulfshore Drive North and more particularly described as that fraction
part of lots 1 & 2, located in Section 20, Township 48 South, Range 25 East, Collier County
Florida
OBJECTIVE: The petitioner requests a Coastal Construction Setback Line (CCSL) Variance
of approximately twenty-five (25) feet to one-hundred-thirteen (113) feet seaward of the CCSL
to construct a new administrative office on the park's primary entrance; future phases to
construct up to seven wood-frame/metal roof picnic shelters ranging in size from 12' x 12' to 30'
x 40'; six 10' x 10' chickee-style concession stands; and a paved drop-off lane addition to the
park road for service access (Exhibit C).
CONSIDERA nONS: The subject property is located along the Gulf of Mexico immediately
north of Vanderbilt Beach. Pursuant to Section 9.04.06 (below) of the LDC, Variance to the
Coastal Construction Setback Line are not reviewed by the Environmental Advisory Councilor
the Collier County Planning Commission.
Applicable section of the CCSL Variance section of the code and staff comments are as follows:
9.04.06 Specific Requirementsfor Variance to the Coastal Construction Setback Line
A. The coastal construction setback line shall be that coastal construction setback line
established by the Department of Environmental Protection of the State of Florida
pursuant to F.S. J 161.053 and recorded in Coastal setback line Book 1, pages 1
through 12 inclusive, recorded October 31, 1974, as Clerk~s Instrument No. 365665 oj
the public records of Collier County, Florida.
B. Setback lines established under this Land Development Code shall be reviewed upon
petition of affected riparian upland owners. The Board of County Commissioners (BCC)
oj Collier County shall decide, after due public notice and hearing, whether a change in
the setback line is justified, and shall notifY the petitioner in writing. The present setback
lines are presumed to be correct, and no change in setback lines are presumed to be
correct, and no change in setback lines shall be made except upon an affirmative
showing by petitioner that any construction line established hereunder is a minimum of
150 feet landward of the mean high-water line or seventy-five (75) feet landward of the
vegetation line whichever is greater~ and that considering ground elevations in relation
to historical storm and hurricane tides, predicted maximum wave up rush, beach and
offihore ground contours, the vegetation line, erosion trends, the dune or bluff line, if

any exist, and existing upland development, that the general public health and welfare
are preserved, upland properties protected, and beach and sand dune erosion
controlled.
Staff Comment:
Four (4) encroachments are consistent with the Land Development Code. Those encroachments
that are consistent include: the new administrative office, two (2) of six (6) proposed 10' x 10'
chickee-style concession stands, and the paved drop-off lane addition to the park road (for
service access).
Eleven (II) of the fifteen (15) proposed encroachments are not consistent with the LDC as they
are less than 150 feet landward of the mean high-water line or less than seventy-five (75) feet
landward of the vegetation line. The furthest structure seaward of the CCSL is 113 feet seaward
of the CCSL. The structures not meeting the LDC requirement range from 116 feet to 134 feet
landward of the mean high-water line and 20 feet to 66 feet landward of the vegetation line.
e. It shall be unlawfUl/or any person, firm, corporation, or agency, public or private. to
construct, reconstruct, or change existing structures. make any excavation, remove any
beach material or otherwise alter existing ground elevations. drive any vehicle on, over
or across any sand dune, or damage or cause to be damaged any sand dune, or the
vegetation growing thereon and/or seaward of said dune, seaward of the coastal
constlllction setback line, except as hereinafierprovided.
D. If in the immediate contiguous or adjacent area a "number of existing stlllctures"
have established a reasonably continuous and uniform construction line closer to the line
of mean high water than the line as herein established, and if said existing structures
have not been unduly affected by erosion, a proposed structure may be permitted along
such line if such proposed structure is also approved by the Bee.
Staff Comment:
A "number of existing structures" immediately contiguous or adjacent has not established a
reasonably continuous and uniform construction line closer to the line of mean high water than
the line as herein established.
All variance dimensions described below were provided by the applicant in a "Variance
Dimension Data Table (Exhibit B). The petitioner provided an overall site plan showing existing
and proposed structures (Exhibit C). The petitioner provided four enlargements of the site plan
known as areas one (I) to five (5) to correspond with the five existing parking lots: Area I
(Exhibit 01); Area 2 (Exhibit 02); Area 3 (Exhibit 03); Area 4 and 5 (Exhibit 04). The
petitioner proposes to construct the following:

Costal Setback Line VariaDce Petition
Exhibit A
Proposed Construction Activitv
The current phase of development will construct a new administrative office on the park's
primary entry. Future phases will construct up to seven wood-frame/metal-roofpicnic
shelters ranging in size from 12' x 12' to 30' x 40' (see site plan). These shelters will
require a coastal setback variance. In addition, six 10' x ] 0' chickee-style concession
stands and a paved drop-off lane addition to the park road (for service access) will be
constructed in future phases, each requiring a coastal setback variance.
Descriptions of Variance Reauests
Administrative Office - this construction site is located greater than 150' inland of the
MHWL and does not impact the existing dune line or bluff. The site is located on the
existing traffic island in the park road, immediately north of the park's ranger station, and
has no effect on the park's upland plant communities. The traffic island is bisected by the
location of the Coastal Construction Setback Line (CCSL). Four of the park's existing
buildings are located approximately 50' seaward (westward) ofthe proposed building.
Therefore, construction of the office does not extend construction beyond the limit
established by existing structures, and the Division of Recreation and Parks requests
Collier County to grant a variance for this building.
Picnic Shelters - The development of picnic shelters in the park will further the park's
goal for eradication of invasive exotic trees (Australian pines), and will address a public
demand for beach-related shade and picnic area amenities. Over the past 30 years,
Florida Park Service resource management activities have removed hundreds of
Australian pine trees from the beach area of this state park. The remaining trees are in
locations that have traditionally been refuge and picnic areas for park visitors, and have
not been removed for that reason. As these remaining Australian pine trees are removed,
their shade will be replaced by the picnic shelters to preserve (and improve) the park's
shaded picnic locations. Permanent structures will enhance the safety and public welfare
in the park by providing sun and heat protection and refuge for visitors during sudden
thunderstorms.
Six of the seven proposed shelter locations lie seaward of the faces of the existing
restroom buildings in the park. Construction in all 7 locations will require a variance of
the County's CCSL regulations. In all cases, locating the proposed shelters eastward of
Agenda Item No. SA
March 25, 2008
Page S of 23
the CCSL is not feasible, since either parking areas or restored native vegetation occupy
these areas, and the intent here is to maintain the traditional and popular picnicking
locations that have developed beneath the exotic trees. For these reasons, the Division of
Recreation and Parks requests Collier County to grant a variance for these shelters.
Concession Chickees - The development of concession chickees will address a long-
term public demand for beach-related services in the state park. The beach area at
Delnor- Wiggins Pass State Park is a linear space extending for over one mile, making it
impossible for centrally-located concessions to provide the services requested by the
park's visitors. Therefore, six 10' x 10' "chickee-style" concession stands are
recommended to provide food, drink and beach-related consumer items at locations
through the park that are convenient to the public. These structures will be similar to the
concession stands constructed by Collier County Parks and Recreation at Barefoot Beach
Preserve County Park, just north of Wiggins Pass. Each of the proposed chickees will be
constructed as an addition to the park's existing boardwalk system. Two chickees are
associated directly with existing restrooms, and two are located east of the seaward faces
of the existing restroom buildings.
A tapered, single-lane expansion of the park road (approximately 40' in length and
tapering from 0' to 10' in width) is recommended to provide a central service access point
for the concession operation, located near the park's Restroom #4. This stabilized surface
will allow necessary vehicular access while protecting adjacent native vegetation from
soil compaction. No native vegetation will be removed for installation of the drop off.
As with the proposed picnic shelters, each of the proposed concession chickees and the
service drop-off will require a variance of the County's Coastal Construction Setback
Line regulations.
Justification
The Division of Recreation and Parks believes that the requests for variances are justified
based on the established goals of both the Division and Collier County to conserve and
enhance natural resources on the coastal barrier and to provide safe and enjoyable
outdoor recreational opportunities for the County's citizens and visitors. These efforts are
consistent with the Conservation and Coastal Management Element, Goal I : "continue to
plan for the protection, conservation, management and appropriate use of (County's)
natural resources"; Goal 6: "identif'y, protect, conserve and appropriately use (County's)
native vegetative communities and wildlife habitats"; and 10: "protect, conserve, manage
and appropriately use (County's) coastal barriers".
The addition of office space and a new beach boardwalk at the park entrance is intended
to support the appropriate use (public beach access) of the state park. For many years,
traffic congestion, pedestrian-automobile conflicts and frustrating delays in admission to
the state park have been a problem for both park and County administrators. The
Division and Collier County staff are working together to alleviate these conditions to the
greatest extent possible, by increasing the carrying capacity of the state park, and
Agenda Item No. 8A
March 25, 2008
Page 9 of 23
providing both interim and permanent solutions to traffic congestion at the park entrance.
The addition of administrative space at the park entrance is part of the permanent
solution, intended to provide staffing at necessary levels based on the volume of traffic
entering the park, and designed to alleviate pedestrian conflicts with incoming traffic.
This project has been designed consistently with the Conservation and Coastal
Management element Goal 6, minimizing the removal of native vegetation, and Goal
10, assuring public beach access, directing new development to previously developed
locations, and minimizing impact to dune vegetation.
The proposed addition of picnic shelters is directly tied with the County's Conservation
and Coastal Management Element: Goal 6, Objective 6.1, Policies 6.1.4 and 6.1.7
preserving native vegetation and Goal 10, Objectives] 0.1 10.2, 10.3, ] 0.4, 10.5 and 10.6
protecting coastal barriers and assuring public access to beaches.
The eradication of invasive exotic plants is a goal of both the State of Florida and Collier
County. The Division has completed removal of Australian pines from Delnor-Wiggins
Pass State park, except for those remaining in locations that are used by the public for
shade and refuge. In fact, removal of these remaining trees has been opposed by local
citizens in the past, since the loss of shade in the affected areas is perceived as a
degradation of the park by its constituents. Granting of the requested waivers for picnic
shelters will allow the Division to remove the last Australian pines from the park,
implementing the objectives of Goal 6 of the Conservation and Coastal Management
Element.
Public beach access at Delnor- Wiggins Pass State park is a high priority for both Collier
County and the Division of Recreation and Parks. Public safety is an issue in relation to
the proposed removal of exotic trees that will be addressed by the construction of
shelters. With Florida's aging population, park planners at all levels of government,
when planning recreation facilities, find it necessary to consider the physical abilities of
park visitors to find refuge from the intense heat and the sudden thunderstorms typical of
our state,. The locations in the state park where Australian pines have remained are the
only locations where respite from direct sunlight can be found, with exception of the
park's restrooms. With a population that includes increasing numbers of individuals with
health problems and limited mobility, it becomes ever more important to provide shade
and shelter from sudden storms at distances from the beach that are accessible to the
majority of the park's users. Therefore, the proposed shelters will be elements ofthe
park's beach access facilities of equal importance to dune crossovers, boardwalk systems
and parking areas.
The combined effect of the proposed shelter construction is to allow preservation and
enhancement of native plant communities while protecting public safety, as outlined by
the Conservation and Coastal Management Element Objective 10.4.8: "Collier County
shall allow construction seaward of the Coastal Construction Setback Line for public
access and protection and activities related to restoration of beach resources. Such
construction shall not interfere with sea turtle nesting, will utilize native vegetation for
dune stabilization, will maintain the natural beach profile, will minimize interference
Agenda Item No. 8A
March 25, 2008
Page 10 of 23
with natural beach dynamics, and where appropriate, will restore the historical dunes with
native vegetation." The proposed projects are consistent with this objective, in its
entirety.
The proposal to construct six concession chickees adjacent to the park's existing
restrooms and boardwalks, and a stabilized lane for service access, can not be linked as
literally to the Conservation and Coastal Element as the office addition and picnic
shelters. The provision of these services have been very vocally requested over many
years by County residents. Providing services that are directly related to the recreational
use and enjoyment of the state parks is consistent with Division policies. The locations
of the proposed chickees and the drop off are all eastward of the locations of the proposed
shelters (some are eastward of the locations of existing buildings), no native vegetation
will be disturbed by their construction and they are to be located within the existing
developed footprint of the park. We believe that these elements of the proposal are
consistent with the County Growth Management Plan in that they provide a needed level
of amenity to a popular recreation area. Division staff requests the approval of the
necessary variances to allow these amenities to be constructed in future park development
phases.
