Dear Commissioner Locastro,
As residents of Collier County, we are writing to ask you to Vote No to the One Naples project as proposed.
The density of One Naples on its 5.4 acres is totally incompatible with the surrounding neighborhoods in District 2. Mr. Stock likes to compare One Naples with Pelican Bay and its 2,100
acres, but this comparison is completely disingenuous. (See excerpt from fellow Pelican Bay resident Julie Wyman's letter below.)
In addition, we are hard pressed to see how One Naples can be a success in a market that seems to be saturated and struggling to fill condominiums with better designs in Kalea Bay, Moorings
Park, and Eleven Eleven Central, all of which are airing TV ads every day ad nauseam.
We appreciated all you did to keep us informed of Covid vaccination opportunities, and we hope you will now do the right thing for District 2 and Collier County and Vote No to One Napes
as proposed.
Sincerely yours,
Ben and Eleanora Ware

******EXCERPT FROM JULIE WYMAN’S LETTER******
OneNaples is a total of 5.4 acres... of course that is only if Collier County 'gifts' Stock with .79 acres of taxpayers' roads. (Land valued at $3.4M) but for Stock.... PRICELESS!
Pelican Bay is a total of 2,100 acres; 530 acres of which are designated 'green space' and 77 acres of which were given to Collier County: 1.69 acres for the Vanderbilt Beach Branch
Library; 3.63 acres for the North Collier Fire rescue, Sheriff's Station and Emergency Services; 15 acres to create Pelican Bay Community Public Park with tennis courts, large open
field, etc.; 40 acres of Clam Pass Beachfront which is now a Collier County Beach Park; 12 acres for Collier County Utilities AND ... at the end of Vanderbilt Beach Road -- 5 acres
of a beautiful stretch of beachfront property which is now the famous "Vanderbilt Beach" which includes land for the parking garage! That's right, Pelican Bay owned this land and it
is now "The People's Beach" and one of the most popular beach accesses in Collier County! Recently along a stretch of Vanderbilt Beach Road, Collier County, using tax dollars, extended
existing bike lanes further Westward heading to Vanderbilt Beach!
All Pelican Bay towers and homes have private beach access. OneNaples towers own no private beach access and the 344 +/- owners/renters together with their many guests will overwhelm
