Dear commissioner. Thank you for your personalized response which is more than I got from my own commissioner Solis. In fact I did not even get a canned response from him. I believe
you are on the right track, and I'm assuming you will vote against stock and hopefully you find at least one other commissioner to do the right thing with you. You are absolutely right
about the value of that property as commercial. My wife and I go to the Beach box often and walk around the area everyday. The thought of losing those sky and water views is very disturbing
to us. We think a limited commercial development low-rise similar to Venetian Village would be the perfect use of that 5 acre space. Even though Stock denigrates that option because
he wants to make more money with the residential zoning change oh, if he wants to do that sort of commercial development I will be all in support. It is equally important that stocks
99 slip Marina be turned down so that the waterfront along the Vanderbilt Lagoon is available for public use and enjoyment. Please Lobby your colleagues to support that outcome. Respectfully
Toby Zettler and Eve Wiese, Vanderbilt Beach.

Mr. Zettler
Thank you for your email. As a Commissioner, I am definitely connected with this area… and have spent considerable time at the Beach Box and surrounding areas over many years. Although
the Commissioner for that District is Andy Solis… I consider ALL of Collier County my District.
I'm very aware of the One Naples project and have spent considerable time speaking with parties on both sides. I've had many discussions with Buzz Victor and his staff who represent
the "Save Vanderbilt Beach" initiative and he and I recently had another Zoom video phone meeting.
Thank you for your viewpoint and for being an engaged citizen… I assure you I will continue to do the deepest dive into the details on both sides before making any decision.

Subject: "NO" to "One Naples"

Dear Commissioners:
Please vote against the “One Naples” residential proposal on Vanderbilt Beach at the corner of Vanderbilt Beach Rd. and Gulf Shore Dr. in North Naples.
Stock Development’s “One Naples” proposal for Vanderbilt Beach is not in the best interest of Collier County residents. The “development” would deprive tens of thousands of residents
and visitors of sky, water, and sunset views, and the only public green space left. The beneficiaries? A few buyers willing to pay millions for gulf views and Stock Development which
stands to gross close to a billion dollars. How can the County Commissioners even consider approving this project?
Stock also wants 99 new docks. This is an unthinkable assault on a priceless natural backwater resource enjoyed by the entire Collier County Community, the already overburdened Vanderbilt
Lagoon.
I believe it is much better to let Stock carry out their “threat” of a commercial development, as permitted by current zoning, if that is the only other choice left to us. The neighborhood
could actually benefit from a properly planned small, low rise commercial development; and it would be far preferable to high-rise residential. We also should require that the waterfront
along the Vanderbilt Lagoon be open to the public, just as the beach is.
Again, as a Collier County taxpayer, I request that you vote against the One Naples proposal at the meeting March 1. It is time for all Collier County citizens to finally take a stand
against overdevelopment. The greater good for the greater number is the correct political call here in order to protect us taxpayers from a developer who obviously cares nothing about
the neighborhood nor the environment?
Respectfully,
Toby Zettler
