Wilson second. Approved unanimously.
V. Adoption of Minutes: Jim King made a motion to approve the minutes, Kate Riley
second, approved unanimously.
VI. Community / Business – Presentations
a. Kamila Perez -Sr. Environmental Specialist, Collier Pollution Control
a. “There’s Pollution in Your Neighborhood”- Ms. Perez gave her presentation on
the negative effects of copper in our waterway, she went over typical landscape
maintenance using copper in the weed spray and other fertilizers that may have
copper in the ingredients. Another way to ensure we do not pollute the waterway
is to pick up dog feces, and avoid throwing trash and other chemicals in the storm
drains. Naples Bay had one of the highest concentrations of copper than any other
water body in the State of Florida. Over irrigating also washes pollutants in our
water bodies. Ponds and Lakes should have a certain amount of plants surrounding
the body water because certain plants soak up the nutrients that can pollute the
water. She also left phone numbers in case there was a complaint or concern with
someone polluting the storm drains or water bodies.
VII. Old Business:
A. Bathymetric Survey: Matt Goddard from Humiston and Moore noted the survey was
completed. They developed a map based on data collected. He went over the data in
comparison to the 2007 post dredge information. The Committee members had extensive
questions regarding the 2007 information to today’s report. The comparison the committee
wanted to show was how much fill is there today vs. the dredge back in 2006. Mr. Goddard
went over how deep they could dredge, and what the level is after the survey. He will go
back to the data and try to make the report reflect the depths then and now. He will go to
DEP to apply for the permit and compete the phases as approved in the scope of services.
The permit will include all maintenance required to maintain the creek.
B. Legislative update: Anita Jenkins updated the committee on adopted legislative
bills but it’s regarding the CRA not necessarily the MSTU’s and it only pertains to
ethics training for the Elected Officials.
C. Speed on the creek -Collier County Sheriff’s Office- Corporal Josh White was
asking some questions about the Communities concerns about speeding boats on the
Creek. He asked if it was happening more on the weekends and the time frames they
seem to be giving more citations. Roy Wilson stated sometimes around 8pm there
are some speeders, but the majority are folks who do not know how to slow down
without a wake. Jack Bonzelaar stated there were some boats that are driving
careless and creating large wakes, there was discussion about slow speed vs. no
wake which would be the same. Slow speed means no wake. Mr. Bonzelaar
mentioned this happens more on the weekends so if the Marine Patrol could monitor
on the weekends that would be great. There was a request to put up more signage in
Haldeman up towards the bridge that could help visually, the Committee asked staff
to proceed with signage and Roy Wilson asked if we could work with Coastal Zone
to add additional signage. Corporal White asked about derelict boats and Gary
Kluckhuhn who owns the house on the very corner end of Naples Bay and Haldeman
Creek which is at the end of Sandpiper Street, he had asked for a contact number to
reach out and ask about registrations for the vessels. Corporal Gibson gave a brief
summary of some issues in the area.
D. Collier County Code Enforcement- Code Report was attached for the committees’
review.
VIII. New Business:
IX. Staff Report:
a. Project Mgr Report- Tami Scott attached her project updates for the
committees review if anyone had additional questions.
b. Maintenance Report – Is attached if anyone has any questions.
c. Financials- For committee’s review and comments.
X. Correspondence and Communications:
A. Bay Days 4-13-2019 – Shirley Garcia gave a brief update and thanked
everyone for volunteering, it was very successful.
XI. Public Comments: Tish Dawson requested the Creek meetings start at 4:30pm
because it is very difficult to make it at 4pm. Kate Riley also has a hard time making it
on time at 4pm as well so the Committee agreed to start the meetings at 4:30 on
October 3, next meeting.
XII. Staff Comments: Staff presented 311 brochures the new call in number the County has
created for the public to use for those who do not know what department handles the
concerns of the community, once they call 311 and it will then be routed to the
appropriate department. The annual reports were distributed to the committee and it is
available on the CRA website; www.bayshorecra.com
XIII. Advisory Committee Comments:.

Re: Haldeman Creek FEMA Technical Analysis

HM File No. 25‐026
Dear Debrah,
This technical analysis is a review of the potential shoaling effects of Hurricane Irma which
impacted the Naples area on September 10, 2017. Hurricane Irma caused an irregular water level
fluctuation within the area including Naples Bay. Refer to Figure 1 for water level elevations
recorded by a tide gauge located on the Naples Pier. This degree of fluctuation in water levels has
the potential of creating turbid waters and depositing sediment within back bays and canals.
Figure 1: Recorded water levels at the Naples Pier (NOAA)
Based on the review of historical aerials of Naples Bay, Figure 2 shows the Creek being dredge
and created in circa 1962. This appears to be the first and only dredging prior to the 2006 project.
Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and United States Army Corps of Engineers
(USACE) permits are provided in Appendix A and reference approximately 45,000 cubic yards (cy)
to be dredged, according the pre‐construction survey of 2006.

To assess the potential damage caused by
Hurricane Irma to Haldeman Creek, it is necessary
to develop a background in‐fill rate. This would be
the natural average of sediment deposited, not
including any significant storm events. This can be
achieved by reviewing historical survey data and
the time between each survey to develop an
estimated volumetric rate of change in cubic
yards per year (cy/yr). Due to the limited survey
data of the Creek, the 2006 pre‐construction
survey volume obtained from the regulatory
permits was used. Applying the approximately
45,000 cy over the time period since the Creek
was initially dredged, approximately 44 years, a
background in‐fill rate of approximately 1,000
cy/yr was estimated.
Applying this in‐fill rate to the current conditions, Humiston and Moore Engineers compared the
current volume between the 2007 post construction survey and the current 2019 survey. Figure
3 shows typical sections and how volumes were calculated. The area between the two surveys
are computed, averaged, and then multiplied by the distance between each survey station. In this
case, the distance between the stations are 50 feet. This method is referred to as the average
end‐area method. The hatch area shows the change in cy found in Table 1.
Figure 3: Typical Section and Volume Calculation
Table 1 is a summary of the calculated volumes for the main channel and each adjoining canal.
Refer to Appendix B for canal location and associated cross sections. The main channel and
adjoining canals show accretion or shoaling from the 2007 dredging except for canal E‐E, which
shows negligible scouring.

Table 1: Volume Summary
The change volume for the entire navigable canal system is 8,122 cy. Applying the time interval
between the two surveys, the background in‐fill rate is estimated at approximately 875 cy/yr.

HALDEMAN CREEK MSTU PROJECTS
• Bathymetric Survey and Data Review:
Humiston and Moore Engineers have been retained to provide a Bathymetric Survey of the Haldeman
Creek existing conditions. The survey data will be used to compared to the 2006 /2007 post dredge
information with the current conditions.
Based on review and analysis, there is approximately 8,100 cubic yards of shoaling within the design
channel since the 2007 post construction survey. This amount is not sufficient to warrant a dredge at this
time. Recommendation is to continue to monitor the shoaling every 2 to 3 years. Given the findings, the
impact from Hurricane Irma was not significant enough to seek FEMA reimbursement.

BAYSHORE DRIVE SOUTH STREETSCSAPE IMPROVEMENTS REFURBISHMENTS
Site Analysis and Existing Conditions
The roadway (Bayshore Dr. So.) is a minor collector two lane uncurbed asphalt pavement road. The
roadway length is approximately .80 miles between Thomasson Drive to the north and Holly Avenue to
the south. The roadway is a local for mostly residential with minimum commercial traffic.
In FY 2011-12 landscape and hardscape streetscape improvements were installed along the east right-of-
way. The improvements generally included the installation of east rights-of-way roadside drainage
systems and swales, landscaping, pedestrian accent lighting system, and an eight (8) foot width sidewalk
system consisting of concrete pavement, Architectural pavers and applied on asphalt simulated paver
pattern street crossings.
The report has been developed over multiple months and some items identified may have been addressed
as of the date of this report.
Existing Roadway Drainage
Uncurbed asphalt pavement and sidewalk draining into roadside swales with at grade grated catch basins
and open-ended culvert pipes connected to an underground storm water piping system discharging to
surrounding low areas.
Along multiple sections of the roadway between driveways a buildup of sand and /or soil debris has
occurred at the edge of east side roadway pavement affecting the travel lane width, as well as impeding
the storm water sheet flow off the roadway pavement, which can result in temporary roadside water
ponding during heavy rainfall events.
Construction debris & Plant blocking drainage Sidewalk edge erosion creating bike & trip issues

BAYSHORE DRIVE SOUTH STREETSCSAPE IMPROVEMENTS REFURBISHMENTS
Erosion and/or settlement undermining sidewalk edges creating bike and trip issues
Roadway soil debris built up on & along roadway edges. Soil debris over ADA warning areas creating
slip and trip issues
Catch basin covered and filling in with debris. Illegal horticultural debris dumping & blocking drainage.
Current roadside soil debris over asphalt pavement; Bare soil areas along swale slopes; construction
debris in swale bottom; Remaining littoral plants (e.g. sand cordgrass) all add to blocking and filling in of
the swales. Erosion along the sidewalk edges has and is creating potential trip or cycle issues.
SITE ANALYSIS AND DESIGN CRITERIA REPORT Page 4
BAYSHORE DRIVE SOUTH STREETSCSAPE IMPROVEMENTS REFURBISHMENTS
Planning Observations and Considerations:
Littoral plantings within these roadway swales are not a viable solution for landscape and/or water
improvement plantings. The existing storm water drainage system catch basins and swale bottom
elevations limit and greatly reduce the rainy season standing water, which is required for littoral
establishment and success. The swale systems are always filling in from horticultural debris (e.g. grass
clippings, weed control, sand cordgrass trimmings an/or dead foliage), and roadway dirt add to the filling
in process which raises the bottom elevations reducing the standing wa ter levels because of the fixed
catch basin elevations.
Generally, weed control to remove or treat weeds (e.g. Torpedo grass) is also an issue in standing water
littoral plantings. Weed control to remove the torpedo grass can result in the littoral planti ngs decline.
Existing Roadway Utilities
The roadway contains multiple underground and overhead utility systems along both rights-of-way and
crossing the roadways. The underground utilities are electrical, communication, water, storm water
piping, force main sewer and gravity sewer systems. The overhead power lines run along the east right-of-
way with multiple crossings along the roadway. The main water line runs the length of the roadway along
the west right-of-way with multiple crossings at intersections or to services individual properties. The
sewer and storm water lines are mostly along and/or within the east right-of-way with service pipe
crossings to individual properties on both rights-of-way.
The northern half to three-quarters of the power lines have been upgraded with concrete power poles
which strengthen the system and increased the height of the electrical lines. Some of the poles had to be
installed within the concrete sidewalks. The concrete power poles will also have the existing
communication cables attached at a lower height generally above fifteen (15) feet. T o date the cables are
still attached to the old wooden poles. The poles have just been cut off above the communication cables.
Planning Observations and Considerations:
The location of the force main and gravity sewer lines within and along the east right-of-way are a big
issue with any large tree plantings along the west side of the sidewalk. The current ten (10) foot Collier
County offset requirement for large to median size trees is not possible. A sewer system deviation from
tree planting offset requirements will be required. Previous approved County deviations have allowed the
planting of small (equal to or less than 4 inch caliper trunk) to medium (less than eleven (11) inch caliper
trunk) size palms (i.e. Alexander, Adonidia) and small trees (i.e. Crape myrtles) with a three (3) foot
offset.
The overhead power lines and communication cables also restrict the tree plantings with their 2additional
offset and height requirements.
Existing Pedestrian Concrete Sidewalks and Roadway Crossings
The concrete sidewalks along the east and west right-of-way are in good condition with level surfaces.
The east right-of-way eight (8) foot width concrete sidewalk appears to be placed on or about one-foot off
the right-of-way or property lines. The east right-of-way sidewalks in multiple locations have adjacent
property vegetation encroachments into the sidewalks or within the County recommended two-foot offset
for this type of pedestrian and cyclist facility. There are also multiple locations where previous hurricane
storm debris cut branches are encroaching into the sidewalks. The adjacent private property trees are also
overhanging the sidewalks at levels lower than the current County maintenance policy clearance
requirement of ten (10) foot.
SITE ANALYSIS AND DESIGN CRITERIA REPORT Page 5
BAYSHORE DRIVE SOUTH STREETSCSAPE IMPROVEMENTS REFURBISHMENTS
Multiple adjacent private properties have fencing installed within the two -foot preferred clearance offset.
There are locations where decorative picket fencing has been installed on top of and/or directly adjacent
to the east sidewalk edges, which appears to be for barrier purposes based upon the adjacent lower ground
elevations along sections of the sidewalks.
The intersecting roadway crossing s are ADA compliant with domed access warning strips. The ADA
domed texturing should be in a more highlighting color (yellow or blue) or a lighter or darker contrasting
color compared to the paver and asphalt coating colors. The roadway crossing asphaltic coatings are
highlighted with a decorative and reflective paver pattern. Minor missing, cracking or damaged areas of
the coatings were observed.
Current sidewalk roadway crossing with markings. Minor cracking and chipping are occurring.
Previous hurricane debris cut stumps and branches within sidewalk offset clearance areas.
Planning Observations and Considerations:
The south end catch basin and culvert pipe at Holly Ave. appears to be filled with debris. Illegal
horticultural debris has been dumped into the drainage swale at the end of this pipe. It should be
determined if all storm water piping and drainage catch ba sins were cleaned after hurricane Irma.
SITE ANALYSIS AND DESIGN CRITERIA REPORT Page 6
BAYSHORE DRIVE SOUTH STREETSCSAPE IMPROVEMENTS REFURBISHMENTS
Preserve area exotic plant growth on features (Love vine) and into sidewalk and light fixture clearance
areas.
Banner arm height clearances to low for sidewalk with cycle access. Banners should be reversed 180
degrees to outside edge of poles. Adjacent property fencing and/or structures should be restricted,
relocated and/or coordinated to maintain 2-foot offset clearances.
Planning Observations and Considerations:
Overhanging trees and/or shrubs located on adjacent private property that is on the east side of the
sidewalk needs additional pruning to provide a minimum ten (10) foot clearance over the sidewalk. Any
previous storm debris within two (2) foot of the edge of the sidewalk and/or lower than ten (10) feet over
the sidewalk should be removed.
It may be advantageous to explore the opportunity to get landscape and maintenance license agreements
from the adjacent sidewalk private properties in order to fully control the lan dscaping adjacent to the
sidewalk.
Existing Roadway and Roadside Accent Pedestrian Lighting
Street lighting fixtures are attached to overhead electric poles at roadway intersections and pedestrian
accent decorative lighting fixtures (56 +/-), along the eastside of the east right-of-way sidewalks.
Two fixtures are still damaged from previous hurricane ‘Irma’ (2017) due to parts availability.
SITE ANALYSIS AND DESIGN CRITERIA REPORT Page 7
BAYSHORE DRIVE SOUTH STREETSCSAPE IMPROVEMENTS REFURBISHMENTS
The sidewalk lighting is apparently divided into two systems with fixture spacing in no set uniformity
thus creating light and dark areas along the sidewalks. Some of the spacing differences have occurred due
to site improvement driveways.
Fixture #55 Fixture #54
Adjacent property foliage creating light reduction.
Planning Observations and Considerations:
Overhanging trees and shrubs located on adjacent private property that are on the east side of the sidewalk
are covering or reducing light output from multiple fixtures. Additional pruning to provide a minimum
four (4) foot clearance around all light fixtures is recommended.
SITE ANALYSIS AND DESIGN CRITERIA REPORT Page 8
BAYSHORE DRIVE SOUTH STREETSCSAPE IMPROVEMENTS REFURBISHMENTS
Existing Landscape Plantings
The east and west rights-of-way green or potential planting areas are mostly covered with herbaceous
weeds and grasses that are maintained by mowing and edging along the concrete sidewalks. These areas
are bisected by intersecting roadways and/or driveways.
A review of the landscape planting plans prepared by Windham Studio, Inc. indicated a substantial
roadside planting of Sunshine Mimosa ground cover, multiple type ground covers and littoral plants,
along with Thatch palms adjacent to the sidewalk. No As built or Record drawing plans were presented
for review, so it is assumed the plantings were installed according to the March 2011 revised plans.
A review of the Collier County Property Appraisers annual aerial photography revealed the new swale
plantings present in January of 2012. The January 2013 show no substantial amount of ground cover or
littoral plants existing. The Sunshine Mimosa ground cover may have spread, but as of today it is not
present in any substantial amount, but thinly scattered throughout the grassy right-of-way areas along the
east right-of-way.
Conversations with past maintenance personnel revealed that the planting survival rate was reduced over
time generally due to high standing water levels. A statement fr om the installation contractor indicated
that during installation they had to move plants up the swale slopes to get them as far as possible out of
the standing water areas. It is an assumption that these plants were the Sunshine Mimosa and any of the
other plants that would not tolerate standing water.
Previous East Right-of-way Drainage Swale Landscape Plantings:
Planted Trees – (77) Key Thatch palms – Plans specified 7’ overall height size palm
Observed Trees - (40) Key Thatch palms – High and low water levels do affect the root systems
seasonally and thus effect the growth rate.
Planted Littorals - (2,893) Multiple plant types
Observed Littorals - (83) Sand Cordgrass clumps
Planted Ground Covers (3,503) Multiple plant types
Observed Ground Covers (<10) Mulhy grass and sparsely scattered Sunshine Mi mosa plants.
Speculative Observations:
Assuming everything per the original planting plans was planted establishing littoral planting around the
edge of a lake or pond is somewhat difficult, but establishment within a roadside storm water swale would
be very difficult and, in our judgement, require additional site-specific maintenance techniques other than
just the typical roadway maintenance programs.
The missing ground cover and littoral plantings is assumed to be related to high standing and dry season
non-existent storm water levels in the swale systems. Weed growth maintenance methods during wet
season and dry season to control and/or remove the weeds growing in the ground covers and littorals
could have also played a major role in the decline and missing plants .
It is also our understanding some plantings located adjacent to driveway or roadway interse ctions were
removed due to sight line complaints.
Planning Observations and Considerations:
The Key Thatch palm trees are surviving and, in some locations, growing well based upon their un -
irrigated, un-mulched and assumed unfertilized status. The Key Thatch palm is the slower and smaller of
the two generally used Thatch palms in this area. The Florida Thatch palm in our opinion and
SITE ANALYSIS AND DESIGN CRITERIA REPORT Page 9
BAYSHORE DRIVE SOUTH STREETSCSAPE IMPROVEMENTS REFURBISHMENTS
observations grows faster and to a taller mature height. Many palms appear to be struggling to produce
typical annual growth. The existing swale soil conditions of extremely wet (high water table) to extremely
dry (low water table) soil conditions greatly affect the overall root system and growth of the palms.
Above is current Key Thatch palm planting at 4 to 5 ft. ht. Original planting plan specified 7 ft. ht. plants
that apparently were not installed. For many years increased height and foliage spread will continue to be
an issue regarding sidewalk clearances with these slow growing palms.
The reviewed installation plans provided information for the one-year establishment watering
requirements, but the plans and information provided for review contained no establishment or annual
maintenance specifications for establishing littorals or other plants w ithin a storm water swale system.
The remaining Sand cordgrass plantings in the bottom of the swale are impeding centerline and at catch
basin flows and generating foliage debris as they are trimmed during maintenance activities.
Irrigation Systems
No irrigation systems exist for the existing landscape plantings. Watering until establishment is what was
called for in the original planting plans.
Planning Observations and Considerations: Irrigation of tree plantings with a minimum bubbler type
irrigation system has been found to be successful in many roadside plantings . Irrigation coverage for
shrubs and/or ground covers should be designed as a 100 percent coverage for establishment and
replacement purposes.

SITE ANALYSIS AND DESIGN CRITERIA REPORT Page 14
BAYSHORE DRIVE SOUTH STREETSCSAPE IMPROVEMENTS REFURBISHMENTS
Summary
The overall appearance of the east right-of-way areas because of the adjacent undeveloped properties;
unmaintained improved and preserve properties; chain link fences; un-mulched palm trees; bare and/or
then swale grass areas; all add up to contribute to an unattractive look.
Roadways
Quarterly roadway street sweeping is a viable solution to removing roadway dirt/sand debris along the
roadway edges and over the pedestrian crossing ADA warning areas. The ADA warning areas if not
already should be cleaned with the weekly lawn maintenance services.
When construction traffic is utilizing the roadway, it would be suggested to require in the permit process
that the construction company be required to provide the street sweeping during and at the end of the
construction.
East Right-of-way Areas
The east right-of-way pedestrian sidewalk facility contains no pedestrian rest areas or trash receptacles.
The opportunity exists to design and install strategically placed sidewalk level elevated pedestrian rest
areas with benches, trash receptacles, flowering large shrub or small tree and ground covers.
The swale areas erosion issues and bare ground areas need to be addressed. The swale areas should be
graded as needed and then re-sodded and/or seeded with Bahia turf grass.
Quarterly street sweeping should be implemented.
Future accent lighting fixture improvements or replacements should be coordinated with the new
Thomasson Drive and Bayshore Drive North fixtures.
West Right-of-way Areas
The west right-of way does not lend itself to a roadside tree planting within the right -of-way areas. The
low existing swale elevation, Botanical Garden roadside landscape improvements and its native
vegetation Preserve areas leave little room for any tree development or placement within the right-of-way
areas. However, the west right-of-way could be used for an irrigation system to supply the east right -of-
way because of the reduced amount of under ground utilities and driveway or roadway intersection
crossings.
Adjacent Private Properties
Any preserved areas where existing natural vegetation is adjacent to the right -of-way lines should have all
exotic invasive vegetation removed. Exotic vegetation removal on these types of properties is generally
required under County permitting to be remove and maintained clean of exotics in perpetuity.
A notification program should be developed for the sidewalk adjacent property owners to encourage them
to improve their property landscape plantings and fences to provide for a continued two-foot clear
sidewalk offset, accent lighting fixture four-foot radius vegetation clearance and exotic plant removal
from within the Preserve areas adjacent to the roadway . An alternate option to this program is to consider
the implementation of a landscape, irrigation and maintenance license agreement with selective adja cent
SITE ANALYSIS AND DESIGN CRITERIA REPORT Page 15
BAYSHORE DRIVE SOUTH STREETSCSAPE IMPROVEMENTS REFURBISHMENTS
property owners in order improve and maintain a five-foot to ten-foot width area along the east side of the
sidewalks. This would permit the M.S.T.U. to put the areas under its maintenance services and provide
additional roadside planting areas. This type of license agreement does not take any property rights away
from the property owner it only allows the M.S.T.U. to improve and maintain any landscape and
hardscape improvements. The property owners could also be provided the rights to approve any
improvements on their properties. This type of Landscape License Agreement is a win -win for all parties
because of the owner’s reduced property maintenance costs and planting improvements, while the
M.S.T.U. and others property owners enjoy a more consist and maintained roadway corridor.
Irrigation Systems
An irrigation system is possible, but the cost would be a major factor to consider if planning a system.
Any irrigation system should be reviewed for possibility of reuse water source supply, but a minimum
application system on potable water is also possible.
Landscape Plantings
Any future replacement of the existing Key Thatch palms locations should be with the Florida Thatch
palm species.
Any additional small tree and palm plantings along the east right-of-way between the sidewalk and road
pavement should be on elevated planting areas created by stone riprap retaining walls or culvert piping
installations. Both types of installation allow for storm water flow as it is existing. Either type will requ ire
County roadway permit approval. These type of elevated planting areas most be located outside of any
intersecting roadway sightline requirements. Refer to concept plans for details of raised planting areas.
If the landscape license agreements are implemented, then additional small tree and palm plantings could
occur along the east side of the east right-of-way sidewalks.
Analysis for Accent Pedestrian and Roadway Lighting
It is recommended in order to improve the community ’s overall appearance through coordination and
consistency that the existing light poles on Bayshore Drive South be re-fixtured with the smaller version
(Cyclone Domia Mini) of the same style of fixture that has been specified for the proposed Thomasson
Drive renovation; and similar in style to the existing fixtures on east Thomasson Drive and on US 41
East. The existing poles can be reused. A new extension, mounting arm and fixture would be installed.
The removed acorn style fixtures can then become stored replacements for the existing same fixtures that
exist along the Bayshore Dr. north section. The existing acorn style fixtures and poles will remain in place
on Bayshore Dr. north until the future street lighting renovation improvements are implemented. The
Bayshore Dr. north renovation project would be estimated to be at least 3 to 4 years out and could extend
out 5 to 6 years if it is phased over multiple years as funds become available.
The existing Bayshore Dr. south banner mounting arms should be raised to as far up the poles as possible
and turned toward the east or adjacent properties because a required ten (10) foot height clearance cannot
be accomplished with the existing pole height. It is also recommended that the banners arm only be
installed on poles adjacent to road intersections, as appears is currently being done for better visibility.

All the following are recommendations are being made to coordinate and make the light fixtures generally
consistent throughout the entire CRA.
Bayshore Dr. South: Remove existing acorn type fixture and replace with 21” diameter Cyclone Domia
Mini Pendent fixture on short decorative mounting arm. The Cyclone Domia Mini fixture should have a
painted white dome which will provide a consistent appearance with the existing CRA roadway (US 41

Naples Daily News USA TODAY NETWORK –
FLORIDA
The fate of a parking lot that has served a popular
East Naples food truck park since last fall but never
got the proper approvals is now in the hands of
Collier County’s hearing examiner.
County hearing examiner Mark Strain on Thursday
heard Bayshore Redevelopment Group LLC’s request
for a parking exemption for the vacant residential lot
at Bayshore Drive and Becca Avenue.
The empty lot at 2831 Becca Ave. sits north of
Celebration Park, the busy food truck park founded
by local entrepreneur Rebecca Maddox, who also
heads the limited liability company.
The property has been used for overflow parking for
months despite not having the proper permits in
place, and the issue has drawn concerns from some
neighbors who say the makeshift parking lot has
harmed their quality of life.
Within 30 days, Strain must render a decision on
whether or not to approve the parking exemption.
Currently, Celebration Park has 13 parking spots,
which includes one space for handicap parking. The
plan for the lot
The property has been used for overflow parking
for months despite not having the proper permits
in place.
proposes 62 spots, which includes three handicap
parking spaces.
If the use is not approved by the county’s hearing
examiner, the property will have to be restored to a
vacant lot, county officials have said. Decisions are
final unless appealed to the board of county
commissioners.
Representatives for the property owners submitted an
application for a parking exemption in October 2018.
The request ping-ponged between county staff and
the applicant a few times, with county officials
asking for corrections and the property owners
resubmitting the application three times before it was
accepted in July.
On Thursday, representatives for Maddox and
Bayshore Redevelopment Group presented the
proposal for the parking lot to Strain in front of a
packed conference room at the county’s Growth
Management Department on North Horseshoe Drive.
“We know there have been problems with the parking
lot as it exists today,” said Bob Mulhere of the
Samblanet said, adding that he has an issue only with
the parking lot.
“It’s just not right for the county to show favoritism,
allowing one person to succeed illegally and
everyone else plays by the rules,” Samblanet said. He
added that Maddox has arranged for additional
parking in a large lot off Weeks Avenue and in a lot
off Bayview Drive, and argued the “illegal parking
lot is not needed.”
For Michael and Janet Gavin, whose home sits
directly behind the lot, the busy parking space has
created a host of issues, including headlights shining
into their bedroom, car alarms going off for several
hours and strangers peering into their back yard.
“Since the lot has been illegally put into use, we have
lost all privacy,” said Meredith Gavin, reading a
statement on behalf of the Gavins.
But the requested parking lot also had its defenders
Thursday.
Decision on food truck parking lot goes before examiner

engineering and planning firm Hole Montes,
representing the redevelopment group.
“We are looking to remedy those problems.”
The proposed parking lot would have a 6-foot high
wall on the north and west sides of the property to
help shield neighbors from the lot. Additionally, a
landscape buffer would be installed.
To help encourage visitors walking to the food truck
park to use a crosswalk at the entrance of Becca
Avenue, the proposal includes a 4-foot high
decorative wall intended to keep pedestrians on the
sidewalk in front of the parking lot.
Some neighbors have noted that food truck patrons
have been jaywalking to get from the parking lot to
the venue, at times texting, intoxicated or not paying
attention to traffic.
“The problem’s been from some of the reports,”
Strain said, “that people are wandering across Becca
and it’s a dangerous situation.”
County officials have said that if the parking lot
situation becomes a lifesafety issue, it can be closed
down while it is going through the approval process.
County code enforcement issued a notice of violation
in December, noting “unpermitted construction
work,” including “lot clearing and the introduction of
gravel fill” on the property. So far no fines have been
assessed, county officials said.
Some residents opposing the parking lot raised
questions during Thursday’s hearing as to why the
county gave the food truck park the green light in the
first place when it doesn’t have enough parking.
“I find it incomprehensible to spend as much time,
effort and money constructing Celebration Park with
only 13 parking places and not having immediate
plans for additional parking,” Dennis Samblanet, a
retired state-certified general contractor who lives off
Becca Avenue, told Strain during public comment.
The fact that the county continues to allow Maddox
to use “the illegal parking lot certainly raises some
questions,” Samblanet added.
Greg Economos, a local real estate agent, said
Celebration Park has become “a unique gathering
place” for everyone. He said the proposed
improvements to the parking lot would alleviate a lot
of the current problems.
Property values on Bayshore Drive are increasing,
Economos said to applause from the crowd.
“It’s because of what’s happening on Bayshore, at
Celebration Park,” he said.
Camille Kielty, who sits on the Bayshore Gateway
Triangle Community Redevelopment Agency
advisory board, said the food truck park has been
“wildly successful” and the parking lot is critical to
continue that success. Celebration Park, she said, has
been “an excellent example” of what the CRA has
been looking for.
“We are changing Bayshore,” Kielty said. “We are
changing it for the better.”

Cultural expansions discussed at Collier forum

They came. They saw. They conferred.
And, oh, how they conferred at the first of three
community forums designed to give a national
consulting firm a sense of what works for the arts in
Collier County, and what it still needs.
Ideas ranged from a marketing-power merger for the
county’s three local art districts to a smartphone app
to both locate public art and QR codes on those
works offering in-depth information. Artists, who
were well represented among the gathering at Collier
County Headquarters Library in North Naples,
lamented the lack of studio and gallery space in both
East and North Naples.
Attorney Richard La Garde, armed with statistics,
proposed a sort of shirttail festival that would bring
patrons

groups to discuss what they like and what they
think could be improved in arts and culture in
Collier County during a forum at the Collier
County Library in North Naples on Tuesday.

from Art Basel in Miami in December to Naples.
“More jets land in Miami for Art Basel than for Super
Bowl,” said La Garde, who said he has researched the
high-end art fair, which brought in 83,000 people in
2018. “It’s just a hop, skip and a jump over to
Naples.”
Another participant wondered why events couldn’t be
scheduled on Naples’ iconic Pier, where he said
dances were held in a past era. Others were anxious
for a green light to resume mural creation in the
Bayshore Arts District in East Naples; in fact, at least
five of the attendees identified themselves as “mural
advocates.”
Professional photographer Michelle Tricca, one of
the first artists to create a photo montage mural on
Bayshore, felt the small number of permitted murals
arts organizations and events, Flynn said. But The
Cultural Planning Group is hoping to learn what
among those is special to people here. They
emphasized that when the discussion groups
tabulated their lists, duplication was fine: “If we hear
something named four times, we know it’s really
important to you.”
An open community survey is available to the entire
county online to solicit as much input into the process
as possible. (See information box for instructions on
how to access it.) The survey is already surpassing
expectation, Flynn: “It’s only been online a week and
already we’ve had 300 responses.”
But the Cultural Planning Group wants even more
inputs for a more defined picture, she added: “We
really want you to complete the survey and share it
with your family, friends, neighbors, business We

showed how tentative Collier County’s support for
arts was.
“That was in 2011, and we’re still talking about it in
2019,” she said. “I’m glad to see they’re finally doing
this.”
Among the other ideas:
❚ Art and art events for millennials and teens
❚ An outdoor amphitheater
❚ An arts magnet school
❚ A comprehensive arts events and programs source,
“one-stop shopping” for the seeker, as a participant
put it
❚ Summer events, “like Stay in May has brought,”
said one woman. Added another: “They’re staying
way past May now.”
The fulcrum for the meeting is the development of an
arts and culture strategic plan, the first in county
history approved by Collier County commissioners.
The plan will give Collier a blueprint for arts support
and direction over the next 10 years and beyond. Arts
proponents in the county hope it will also bring more
financial consideration for the arts, which receive no
county support aside from some tourism marketing
funds.
The Cultural Planning Group, a California-based with
a partner office in Florida, is collecting and tabulating
the information. Its representatives, Linda Flynn and
Surale Phillips, moderated the forum, as they would
do with two more public forums on Wednesday.
They split the 60-plus participants who came into
small groups to distill what the attendees love about
Collier County and what’s missing.
“We’re on our listening tour this week, so we really
want to get the discussion started,” said Flynn. “We
feel the best ideas emerge from conversations we
have in the community, which is why we take three
or four months and have discussion groups and have
these community meetings and have stakeholder
interviews.”
know some people don’t like filling out surveys, but
this is a fun one. It asks what you want to see.”
The Cultural Planning Group is hoping to have
preliminary recommendations in November, and a
roughdraft plan in January. At that point it will ask
for public comment again.
The planned launch date is April.
