EXHIBIT "A"
INTRODUCTION [Added text, page 2]
The goal of the Housing Element of the Collier County Growth Management Plan is "to create
an adequate supply of decent, safe, sanitary, and affordable housing for all residents of Collier
County." With the exception of housing opportunities provided to citizens of very modest means,
the provision and maintenance of housing is traditionally a function of the private market. The
development of private housing in Collier County is driven by an expensive housing stock:
effectively excluding low-income and working class families from the housing market. Thus,
there is a need for the County to find ways to encourage the provision of affordable-workforce
housing for these families.
In Collier County. encouragement of the provlSlon of affordable-workforce housing is the
responsibility of the Collier County Operations Support and Housing Department. The purpose
of the Department's grants and affordable-workforce housing programs is to increase the supply
of affordable-workforce housing countywide, through management of the County's Affordable
Housing Trust Fund. The trust fund has enabled the County to implement the following
programs:
. Impact fee deferrals,
· Housing rehabilitation and emergency repair,
· Down payment / closing cost assistance,
· Land acquisition with new construction,
· Demolition with new construction,
· Special needs housing and pre-approved building plans,
· Meeting community needs by facilitating the creation of affordable-workforce housing
opportunities: the improvement of communities: and the sustainability of neighborhoods.
Collier County will continue to address its affordable-workforce housing deficit by working
collaboratively with non-profit groups, governmental agencies, and public/private coalitions to
coordinate activities and effectively leverage the resources available to the entire County. The
most current data available from the University of Florida Shimberg Center is considered in
assessing the County's affordable-workforce housing deficit.
