COLLIER COUNTY
FIVE -YEAR STRATEGIC PLAN (2001 -2005)
Vulnerabilities and Capabilities
Collier County continues to be one of the fastest growing communities in the
United States. Its permanent resident population has increased more than twelve -fold
since the passage of Hurricane Donna in 1960. There are currently three municipalities
within the County: The City of Naples, (21,604), The City of Marco Island (12,993) and
Everglades City (594). Statistics provided by the Collier County Comprehensive Planning
Section estimate that the county - -wide population is 229,821 in 2001 and should grow to
288,198 by 2005. Peak population (January - April) is 337,743 in 2000 and 395,381 in
the year 2004. Fortunately, peak season does not coincide with our hurricane season.
Collier County, at 2020 square miles, is one of the largest counties, in size, within
the State of Florida. The topography is relatively flat ranging from sea -level along the
coast to 38 -40 feet in Immokalee. Approximately 86% of the population live within the
Tropical Storm- Category 3 vulnerability zones.
Hurricanes remain the most serious threat. Since 1886, Collier County has had 56
named storms that came within 60 miles of its borders. The frequencies are broken down
as follows:
32 Tropical Storms
8 Category 1 Hurricanes
5 Category 2 "
9 Category 3 "
2 Category 4 "
0 Category 5 It
Storm surge and hurricane force winds, not withstanding, localized flooding from
excessive rainfall over super - saturated soil and low category tornadoes are relatively
common during the late spring and summer months. Most residences have been
constructed since the County developed flood plain ordinances in the mid 70's thus
residential flooding is not a significant problem although roads become flooded quite
easily. Flooding resulting from Tropical Storm Jerry and Hurricane Opal caused damages
to more than 350 homes and businesses in 1995. In addition, heavy rains (10 + ") from
Tropical Storm Harvey also flooded 70 homes and businesses in late September, 1999. - •
Thunderstorms and their associated lightning are common from May- September
with 97 thunderstorm days along the coast and 105 in the Northeast sections of the
County.
Forest fires, particularly in the Golden Gate Estates area can become serious
especially after freezes and periods of drought. Thirty- thousand acres were lost in 1985
1
16F 4
and 24,550 in 1988. Since 1988, local fire districts and the National Park Service have
initiated a "controlled burn" program which mitigates the threat but more people are
moving eastward to the urban/wildfire interface areas. Two significant fires occurred in
Golden Gates Estates in March and April resulting in 4,000 acres and some homes
destroyed. Despite the "Controlled Burn" program, more than 16,500 acres were burnt in
the South Blocks and Miller Blvd. from April 9 -14, 2000. Twelve structures were
destroyed or substantially damaged.
Tornadoes during the late winter and spring months can do considerable damage
to mobile homes and screened pool enclosures
Hazardous materials are present in significant numbers throughout the County with
the Immokalee area having a very large quantity of agricultural chemicals. Collier County
has between 70 -80 facilities that store extremely hazardous substances on site.
Other potential man -made threats could come from a mass casualty event
involving an airplane or bus, terrorist activities, or civil disturbance. Collier County is
considered an ingestion pathway county because of the close proximity of the Turkey
Point Nuclear Power Plant in South Miami- Dade County.
Medical facilities within the county are:
General Hospitals
2
Substance Abuse Centers
3
Urgent Care Centers
6
Ambulatory Care Centers
8
Nursing Homes
12
Assisted Living Facilities
26
In addition, there are approximately 730 individuals that are registered with this
department as special needs clients. There are, however, approximately 7000 individuals
with special needs that are not registered with this agency. Many of them will require
assistance during a disaster.
The Emergency Management Department is staffed with 4 full -time employees:
Director, 2 Coordinators and Emergency Management Tech. We also have a clerical
assistant to help manage the special needs program from May to October and a part -time
position that manages the volunteers and donations program. In addition to dealing with �-
public awareness, alert and warning, special needs, sheltering, recovery and mitigation
issues, communications exercise development and plan review for health -care agencies, we
are increasingly being asked to sit on or chair task force committees for developments of
regional impact, planned urban developments, disaster recovery task forces, grant
management, local mitigation strategy and procurement, etc.

Where Are We Going? What needs to be done?
Although our emergency management program has make great strides during the
past five years, much needs to be done. This includes:

of service of 60,000 shelter spaces by 2002.

expectations of an ever increasing elderly and informed population.

emergency response structure of 18 Emergency Support Functions
under an incident command system.
* Recommending and implementing mitigation measures by developing
a local mitigation strategy; and
* Expanding current service levels in the area of public awareness, staff
development, resource management and equipment maintenance.

County.
