League of Women Voters of Collier County logo A CALL TO ACTION TUESDAY, JANUARY 28 A decision will be made on the proposed Rivergrass Village development in rural Collier that will impact future development and our quality of life. Attend and make a difference! WHERE? Collier County Government Center, 3299 Tamiami Trail East, Naples FL 3412. Administration Building (3rd floor) WHEN? 10 a.m.January 28 WHY IS THIS SO IMPORTANT? Rivergrass Village was rejected by the Collier County Planning Commission by a vote of 4 to 1 in early November. If it is approved by the Board of County Commissioners, it will set a precedent for all future development within the Rural Lands Stewardship Area (RSLA) - an area meant to protect environmentally sensitive lands, wildlife and our agricultural lands by using the best in smart growth principles.Rivergrass Village — a 1000 acre 2500 resident gated golf course community —-is the first of 5 new applications for “villages” in this stewardship area. Rivergrass is the opposite of good stewardship. It is the opposite of smart growth. YOUR ROLE? WEAR GREEN. You don’t have to speak (but you can if you wish). By just showing up, you are making a statement. Bring a friend. Numbers talk to our Commissioners!: Note: this is the BCC hearing on Rivergrass which was cancelled in December 2019.
