Subject: Sable Palm MPUD - Executive Summary

I’m writing about the upcoming agenda item at the upcoming BCC meeting. While this requested MPUD
annexation has already been reviewed at the Collier County Planning Commission, many current
residents of the Isles of Collier Preserve feel the petitioner's statements at that CCPC meeting overstated
and misrepresented current residents’ views on this annexation. The petitioner, Minto, has thus far not
committed to addressing any incremental amenities as they’d committed to the CCPC. Moreover, planned
amenities are incomplete with previously committed to nature walkways, wildlife viewing stations, and a
playground not even initiated nor completed. Many ICP residents feel this annexation unnecessarily
expands the Sabal Bay MPUD with no real benefits to current residents. Developer communications to
residents thus far suggest the developer has no intention to augment existing common property and
amenities. This seems to be in direct conflict to decision criteria for evaluating PUDA proposals that
stipulate any PUDA must not adversely affect the living conditions of the neighborhood.
Additionally, the proposed annexation exposes the HOA ‘assigns’ (current HOA homeowners) to future
and unknown infrastructural costs such as storm water and traffic infrastructure expenses when the
community is ‘turned over’ to the HOA at completion of the development. Importantly, the proposed
annexation of the ‘Fleischmann’ parcel is deemed to be within the MSTA (Municipal Special Taxing
Authority) and yet there is no explicit language in the petitioner’s applications to exclude the remainder of
the Sabal Bay MPUD from this MSTA obligation. We feel explicit exclusionary language must be included
as part of any PUDA approval to protect current MPUD home owners. In summary, we see no legitimate
benefit from integrating the processed Fleischmann parcel with the current ICP community and several
valid reasons to prevent such annexation.
With respect to the traffic consequences of this proposed development of 230 additional homes in the
Fleischmann parcel, we take the view a more complete evaluation of the likely 500+ additional cars per
day on the South/North portions of Bayshore Road has not fully accounted for other adjacent
developments along Thomasson Drive and Bayshore Drive, i.e., the Dells parcel, the Cirrus Pointe parcel,
the Mattamy Homes community on Bayshore and the row houses on Thomasson Drive currently under
construction. The PUDA’s associated Traffic Impact Statement (TIS) makes plain this PUDA will have
major effects on Bayshore and Thomasson Drives. (Reference page 30, line 5 of the Executive
Summary). This is in direct conflict with the summary findings provided to the BCC as part of their review
materials. We challenge the assumed traffic patterns comprised in the TIA associated with this proposed
PUDA on several fronts and believe in general it understates the traffic impact of this proposed
annexation.
Collectively, we believe this PUDA is inconsistent with MPUD rezoning criteria and will adversely
influence living conditions in the neighborhood in terms of reasonable access to and enjoyment of
community common property/amenities, along with the deleterious effects of increased traffic. (Reference
Page 5, Line 14 of the Executive Summary). We are asking for your vote to defer this agenda item
at the upcoming BCC meeting so residents’ issues and concerns can be presented and integrated
into the BCC’s deliberations on this proposed annexation. Please realize a large percentage of ICP
residents are seasonal residents and haven’t been fully involved in the deliberations of this proposed
annexation. The Covid 19 pandemic has introduced additional limitations on residents as well. We are
asking for your support to a request for temporary deferral of this agenda item until residents’
perspectives can be shared with the BCC. In so doing we believe you will be equipped with a full
understanding of the issues and concerns residents have with this proposal so a more informed decision
can be made.
Sincerely,
Tim Owens
