December 10, 2020 Newsletter From:Collier County District 4 Commissioner Penny Taylor To:TaylorPenny Subject:[Test] December 2020 Collier County - District 4 Newsletter Date:Thursday, December 10, 2020 3:45:04 PM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source. Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. As we approach the end of 2020, it is an understatement to say that this hasbeen quite a year. The COVID-19 pandemic has shaped and colored many of theCounty decisions we have had to make. In many instances, these were toughdecisions because there is simply no rule book to follow. We started, on March, 3, 2020 to title our newsletters: COVID-19 Bulletin #.... because of Governor’s declaration of a State of Emergency due to the COVID-19virus. It was our hope that by the end of 2020, the pandemic would be mostlybehind us, and the Governor’s State of Emergency lifted. Instead, we see our COVID numbers steadily increasing. The bright hope is avaccine already being distributed in Great Britain and Canada. But, as I learnedtoday, even with a vaccine, we need to stay vigilant and practice social distancingand masking until the distribution of the vaccine is widespread in the UnitedStates. Dr. Fauci announced today that he is hopeful that by the Fall of 2021,things just might return back to some degree of normalcy. And so, we are going to make one small change in our newsletters, becauseCOVID-19, for now, is a fact of life in our world. We will still publish ournewsletters, and we still will have up-to-date information about County businessand the virus updates and most importantly the progress wethe Countyis making in addressing the challenges of COVID-19. But we simply drop thetitle: "COVID-19 Bulletin # …" and publish our newsletters by date. So, on that note, here is our District 4 Newsletter, December 10, 2020!

As part of the accreditation process, Collier County Parks & Recreation Divisionhad to demonstrate compliance with 151 recognized standards and document allpolicies and procedures. Often the process helps identify efficiencies andheighten areas of accountability, all of which translate into higher quality serviceand operation to benefit the community. “The process of reaccreditation is extensive and to accomplish this, our teamcontinually monitors our business and customer processes to ensure we aremeeting the public’s needs,” said Collier County Parks & Recreation DirectorBarry Williams. “We invite residents and visitors to rediscover our fantastic parksystem, where there is something for everyone.” The process for accreditation involves a formal application, self-assessments, asite visit by a team of trained visitors that results in a written report, and ahearing with the commission to grant accreditation.

Museum of the Everglades Hosts“Indomitable – the Life & Art of Camille BrockBaumgartner” Exhibit Museum of the Everglades is pleased to present Indomitable – the Life & Art ofCamille Brock Baumgartner – a retrospective exhibit recounting the colorfulstory of the late artist who made Everglades City her home from 1977 until 1994,focusing as much on the artist and the events that shaped her life and work as itdoes on the art itself. This exhibit explores her journey from adventures as aPlayboy bunny in 1960s Miami to her groundbreaking work lifecastingdignitaries of the Seminole tribe in bronze thirty years later. A fixture in theNaples art community, Camille’s paintings of her friend and colleague PaulArsenault’s historic home were selected to represent the Fine Arts Society’sDecade of Arts campaign in 1989. After overcoming struggles with alcoholism and other personal issues,Baumgartner was determined to pay back her gift of sobriety and became alicensed addiction counselor, working both in that capacity and as a publicrelations agent for the Willoughs at Naples. She wore many hats (quite literally)and served our community in many ways before returning to her native Georgia where she died in 2015. Examples of Camille’s work in a variety of mediums and along with numerousphotos from her storied career bring the Pauline Reeves Gallery at Museum ofthe Everglades to life - capturing the essence of an artist whose irrepressiblespirit inspired the exhibit’s title. Indomitable – the Life & Art of Camille Brock Baumgartner openedon Tuesday, December 1, 2020, and will run through Saturday,February 27, 2021. Originally a commercial laundry established during the building of the TamiamiTrail, the Museum of the Everglades features exhibits that proudly tell the storiesof the area’s pioneer past and its transformation into Barron Collier’s companytown. Placed on the National Register in 2001, the building itself brings theregion’s history to life, an extraordinary example of Everglades City’s evolutionfrom a frontier fishing village to the Birthplace of Collier County.

And so, we are going to make one small change in our newsletters, becauseCOVID-19, for now, is a fact of life in our world. We will still publish ournewsletters, and we still will have up-to-date information about County, business and the virus and the progress we are making as a County in addressing thechallenges of COVID-19. But we will drop the title: COVID-19 Bulletin# … andjust publish our newsletters without that title. So, on that note, here is our District 4 newsletter, December 10, 2020!

Museum of the Everglades Hosts“Indomitable – the Life & Art of Camille BrockBaumgartner” Exhibit Museum of the Everglades is pleased to present Indomitable – the Life & Art ofCamille Brock Baumgartner – a retrospective exhibit recounting the colorfulstory of the late artist who made Everglades City her home from 1977 until 1994,focusing as much on the artist and the events that shaped her life and work as itdoes on the art itself. This exhibit explores her journey from adventures as aPlayboy bunny in 1960s Miami to her groundbreaking work lifecastingdignitaries of the Seminole tribe in bronze thirty years later. A fixture in theNaples art community, Camille’s paintings of her friend and colleague PaulArsenault’s historic home were selected to represent the Fine Arts Society’sDecade of Arts campaign in 1989. After overcoming struggles with alcoholism and other personal issues,Baumgartner was determined to pay back her gift of sobriety and became a licensed addiction counselor, working both in that capacity and as a publicrelations agent for the Willoughs at Naples. She wore many hats (quite literally)and served our community in many ways before returning to her native Georgiawhere she died in 2015. Examples of Camille’s work in a variety of mediums and along with numerousphotos from her storied career bring the Pauline Reeves Gallery at Museum ofthe Everglades to life - capturing the essence of an artist whose irrepressiblespirit inspired the exhibit’s title.

Originally a commercial laundry established during the building of the TamiamiTrail, the Museum of the Everglades features exhibits that proudly tell the storiesof the area’s pioneer past and its transformation into Barron Collier’s companytown.

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?

Dear Commissioners, I am a longtime owner of property in Naples Park, previously Pelican Bay and 45 year resident of Collier County. I am in support of the “One Naples” project which is soon to come to a vote by you. I often use the amenities in the area, especially Vanderbilt Beach and believe the project will not only update the corner of Vanderbilt Beach and Gulfshore Boulevard esthetically, but provide additional safety for that very crowded area. Collier County prides itself on beautification of our unique county, as it has set the standard for where people want to live and visit. It has been the well-respected developers who have successfully helped build out our community the way we enjoy it today. This corner, as we have seen in “the season” this year (even with covid) illustrates the expanding number of people who want to visit this area and the need for change. My experience with this builder is that they are trustworthy and have provided many beautiful and tasteful projects, a testament to their promise to make many amenity changes at no additional taxpayer costs. Also, this project will increase the values in this area, adding greatly to our residential tax base. I am asking you to support the “One Naples”project based on the above facts and benefits to our community. Thanks for your continued service to Collier County.

February 28, 2021 Honorable Chair Taylor and Commissioners Solis, Saunders, McDaniel and Lo Castro: I am writing to you as a proud 25 - year resident of District 2 Collier County in support of the “One Naples” project which will come before you for a vote. As a resident in this district, I often walk and swim at the Vanderbilt Beach location on the gulf and believe this project reflects the kind of smart, stable growth my family and I wish to see in our community. I do not think anyone in this community would disagree that this corner has been and continues to be somewhat of an eye soar and certainly goes against our collective mission for the beautiful community we all strive to achieve. As if the beauty and scope of this project were not enough, this LOCAL builder has offered to improve the safety of the intersection of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive, provide connected public bicycle paths throughout “One Naples”, create a lush, tropical garden with the installation of mature, native landscaping throughout the project’s corridor and a coffee shop – deli open to the public ALL AT NO EXPENSE TO TAXPAYERS. As if the aforementioned were not enough to support this project, the increase of our residential tax -base, collection of impact fees, hiring of local contractors adding to a positive economic advantage for our own community members as well as substantially lower traffic based on a residential rather than a new commercial project provide a magnitude of added benefits. I am asking you to support “One Naples” based on the facts and benefits to our community. Thank you for your consideration, you leadership and your service to our community and county.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Hello. I am writing to ask you to deny the changes that would allow the One Naples residential project on Vanderbilt Beach Road. You may not live in District 2 as I do, but you may spend time on Vanderbilt Beach or at Delnor-Wiggins State Park. This development will profoundly change the character of a neighborhood that provides TWO public beach access points for Collier County and make it much more difficult for all Collier County residents to enjoy our lovely beaches. The only roads that intersect with Gulfshore Drive along this beach are Bluebill and Vanderbilt Beach Road. These roads are already near capacity and the provisions to mitigate traffic promoted by One Naples are unrealistic. Commercial re-development of this corner is appropriate. It has always been commercial and redevelopment as commercial will benefit the neighborhood and our visitors. The owners in my building are now swayed by the bogey man of commercial development that is presented by Stock development. We feel that commercial development is the better choice for our quality of life. We would not mind more restaurants and shops within walking distance, with adequate onsite parking.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: I am writing you today to express my opposition to the Stock Development One Naples as it is currently proposed. I was encouraged by the action of the Planning Commission and their inability to recommend approval not only of the current Stock plan, but of a watered-down version that reduced the outrageous tower heights by almost 25%, and extremely diminished setbacks. They did their job, protecting the community. Now it’s your turn. Planning Commissioner Frye said it best when he asked the other Commissioners how they could ignore the outpouring of sentiment from the community. These are your constituents, your voters. Isn’t it your responsibility to listen to those who will live with this atrocity for decades to come and to vehemently deny the developer the right to build it? If hundreds of emails exhorting you to deny the project are not enough, if more than eighty people who signed up to speak against the project at the Planning Commission are not enough, if the 1,100 members of Save Vanderbilt Beach, forty percent of whom have contributed more than $100,000 to engage experts and fight the development are not enough, what exactly will be enough to persuade you to do the right thing? Please, when it comes before you, vote to deny the project as it is currently proposed. If you do approve something for the site, and remember we are not opposed to reasonable development, please approve the project with the conditions that your own Planning Staff proposed. They are reasonable and result in a project that is compatible with and complementary to the neighborhood.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Solis: As a resident, I want to see Collier county grow and prosper. I appreciate the need for additional residents and businesses and tax revenue. But the One Naples project is not an appropriate way to develop our county. I hope, as the representative for our neighborhood (Vanderbilt Beach Road west of 41), you will convince your colleagues on the county commission to vote no on this development that will increase traffic on an already busy two-lane road, and dramatically change the demographics and ambiance of our neighborhood, including our public Vanderbilt Beach. There are better ways to grow and improve Collier County. Thank you for representing us. W. Fred Duy 8325 Excalibur Circle O6 Naples, FL 34108 Forwarded by a friend?

I Talked to an older couple that I have known for many years that shop where I work. She had the virus but he did not want the vaccinations as he thought he had to pay for them. I asked if he had Medicare and he does so I emphasized that the two shots are “free.” Maybe you want to add the word “free” to the informational newsletter on vaccine availability. And I really do appreciate both of your informative newsletters that I receive. 2. Although this development is a long ways from where I live still I am very concerned over the “One Naples” being proposed on Vanderbilt Road. I served on the Onondaga County, the Town of Onondaga, and the Collier County Environmental Advisory Boards and always look for good development that also takes the “environment” into account. One of the best developments, Treviso Bay, stayed within the zoning requirements and also donated land to Rookery Bay, approved their control burns, gave extra distance for the eagles nests, and built houses on already disturbed farm lands. And I recently read of a ware house in a residential neighborhood that is adding many more trees and open land to make it more compatible within its setting. So I really hope that you both will question why Stock Development is trying to make so many serious changes to the current zoning requirements. As I understand it the development will increase the residential units from 87-172; requests reduced setbacks from the 93 to 31 and 25, that the 30% open space may be the pool and cabanas and not open land. Zoning requires compatibility and consistency with the neighborhood and this development does not seem to follow this guide line. Also if the zoning laws are adequate this proposed development is asking for a lot of substantial variations. I saw that when the City of Naples Board members gave many variances to their zoning laws with respect to height and density etc. that the citizens became upset and voted out those representatives so I do hope that you will carefully look at “One Naples” and if it is not a “good development” that you will not approve it. Stock Development is a good builder and they have already made changes to their plans. Having a developer say that their plan is the only one that will allow an economic return is not a good reason. If this is still not a good development for this neighborhood perhaps they should look at more adjustments to their plans. Again in the meantime I hope that you do not approve Stock’s current requests for zoning law variances that allow for a bad development. It could set a precedence for others requiring more density etc. 3. I should have written sooner on the Collier village. When the state stopped Collier County from developing anything East of Collier Boulevard the rationale was to stop urban sprawl. The Collier County Environmental Advisory Council and a Special Citizens Advisory Committee put together rules that each village should be so many miles from another village and also so many miles from another town. Likewise towns were to be so many miles from another town. Many disapproved of the current Collier village as presented and now the Collier family are discussing another village and eventually a town. You may want to review the rules. If the Collier family wants to create a town that now incorporates the current village and future village, maybe the town aspect should be the main concept reviewed. They probably should have presented the town from the beginning instead of starting villages. I can not quote the current distances from each but you both may want to review the initial concepts on village and town developments. As a former County Commissioner (Legislator) in Onondaga County NY, I appreciate all the work that you both do for your citizens!! And to Penny Taylor a special thanks again for allowing Collier County to have a mask ordinance. It will be interesting to read the information on the percentages of people that have had their full vaccinations and the percentages toward “herd immunity” and how effective the current and new vaccinations are toward preventing the mutations of the virus. All the articles that I have read say that we can only stop mutations when we no longer pass them along to others. With the current shortages of vaccines the mask mandate may have to be extended in April until we do have a high “herd immunity” figure. I know people are tired of wearing the masks but the diseases are so much worse and the best ways of not spreading the diseases are with the wearing of masks, the social distancing, and the washing of hands.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. August 3, 2020 James Sabo Donna Fiala Andy Solis Burt Saunder Penny Taylor Bill McDaniel Subject: One Naples Proposed Development To All of the Above: We have one request for you. Please, please, please examine the One Naples proposal from the standpoint of the local community that currently walks, bikes or drives to Vanderbilt Beach. If you truly view it from our perspective, rather than that of the developer, the tax collector and the prospective multi-millionaire residents of One Naples, you will see that in its present form the proposal is unworkable and downright unsafe. We have reviewed the most recent renderings, and despite our previous written comments, still do not see any bike paths that would allow us to safely travel from our home in Naples Park to Vanderbilt Beach. The last time we asked, we were told only that there would be a bike path running along Southbay from Vanderbilt Beach Road to Gulfshore. This makes absolutely no sense – it’s like a bridge to nowhere. We own a home on 96th Ave. North in Naples Park. We built that home in large part because of the access to Vanderbilt Beach. On an almost daily basis, we walk or we ride our bikes to Vanderbilt Beach, often with our children and young grandchildren. Even today, that short little jaunt is dangerous. Please follow our current path: -We travel west on 96th to Vanderbilt Drive and turn south. There are no bike paths on Vanderbilt Drive. The sidewalk is not sufficiently wide to accommodate people with wagons and strollers and dogs and wheelchairs and beach chairs and coolers, much less bikes. Bikes, even those ridden by young children, are forced onto the already narrow street to compete with the cars. -We then turn west on Vanderbilt Beach Road, heading toward the beach. Again, there are no bike paths. The sidewalk is not sufficiently wide to accommodate people with wagons and strollers and dogs and wheelchairs and beach chairs and coolers, much less bikes. Bikes, even those ridden by young children, are forced onto the already narrow street to compete with the cars. -We cross at Gulf Shore and park our bikes at the beach. Now, instead of addressing an already dangerous issue, the One Naples proposal makes the path even more dangerous: -The car traffic will increase substantially as a natural consequence of having 172 additional residences between Naples Park and the Beach, plus a marina and 99 boat slips. -There still are no obvious bike paths along Vanderbilt Beach Road that are evident in the renderings, despite the added traffic. -What we have been told is that there will be a bike path along Southbay. But think about it. If we are riding from Naples Park to the beach, what good will it do to route us along Southbay? And then what? Dump us onto Gulf Shore? Then what? How do we get to the beach from there? Ride bikes on the east side Gulf Shore sidewalk back to the corner to cross at the light? The pedestrians will love that. Or should we dash through the traffic on Gulf Shore to then ride south on the street back to the beach? This makes no sense! All it does is take the bike traffic out of the way of the One Naples entry/egress road. It is even less safe than just staying on Vanderbilt Beach Rd and dodging the cars on the direct route to the beach. Please try to see this from our perspective. We are not anti-development, but this proposal is unsafe. By trying to cram so many physical structures onto a small site, Stock is proposing set-backs that are ridiculously narrow and do not permit expansion of walkways and roads to serve the residents of the area. Will Stock, or the Commissioners accept liability when adults or, God-forbid, young children trying to walk or ride their bikes to the “PUBLIC ACCESS beach” are injured because money took precedence over safety? And I can guarantee that this proposal is an accident waiting to happen. This is in your hands. You can force a fix. The current regulations are on the books for a reason. Please don’t ignore us. I can guarantee that the first time there is an accident in that area involving pedestrians or bikes, we will send this letter to the newspapers so that no-one can say they did not anticipate the safety consequences of the proposed One Naples development. Our safety is in your hands. Please stand up for us.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: I am writing you today to express my opposition to the Stock Development One Naples as it is currently proposed. I was encouraged by the action of the Planning Commission and their inability to recommend approval not only of the current Stock plan, but of a watered-down version that reduced the outrageous tower heights by almost 25%, and extremely diminished setbacks. They did their job, protecting the community. Now it’s your turn. Planning Commissioner Frye said it best when he asked the other Commissioners how they could ignore the outpouring of sentiment from the community. These are your constituents, your voters. Isn’t it your responsibility to listen to those who will live with this atrocity for decades to come and to vehemently deny the developer the right to build it? If hundreds of emails exhorting you to deny the project are not enough, if more than eighty people who signed up to speak against the project at the Planning Commission are not enough, if the 1,100 members of Save Vanderbilt Beach, forty percent of whom have contributed more than $100,000 to engage experts and fight the development are not enough, what exactly will be enough to persuade you to do the right thing? Please, when it comes before you, vote to deny the project as it is currently proposed. If you do approve something for the site, and remember we are not opposed to reasonable development, please approve the project with the conditions that your own Planning Staff proposed. They are reasonable and result in a project that is compatible with and complementary to the neighborhood. In hopes of a more reasonable project, I am respectfully, Dan Jensen __________________________ -------------------------- From:Pat McCaffery Sr To:SolisAndy; TaylorPenny Subject:Dear Commissioners.docx One Naples Date:Friday, February 26, 2021 8:56:35 AM Attachments:Dear Commissioners.docx ATT00001.txt EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. As we approach the end of 2020, it is an understatement to say that this hasbeen quite a year. The COVID-19 pandemic has shaped and colored many of theCounty decisions we have had to make. In many instances, these were toughdecisions because there is simply no rule book to follow. We started, on March, 3, 2020 to title our newsletters: COVID-19 Bulletin #.... because of Governor’s declaration of a State of Emergency due to the COVID-19virus. It was our hope that by the end of 2020, the pandemic would be mostlybehind us, and the Governor’s State of Emergency lifted. Instead, we see our COVID numbers steadily increasing. The bright hope is avaccine already being distributed in Great Britain and Canada. But, as I learnedtoday, even with a vaccine, we need to stay vigilant and practice social distancingand masking until the distribution of the vaccine is widespread in the UnitedStates. Dr. Fauci announced today that he is hopeful that by the Fall of 2021,things just might return back to some degree of normalcy. And so, we are going to make one small change in our newsletters, becauseCOVID-19, for now, is a fact of life in our world. We will still publish ournewsletters, and we still will have up-to-date information about County businessand the virus updates and most importantly the progress wethe Countyis making in addressing the challenges of COVID-19. But we simply drop thetitle: "COVID-19 Bulletin # …" and publish our newsletters by date. So, on that note, here is our District 4 Newsletter, December 10, 2020!

The Department of Health (DOH) - Collier County continues to work to expandour reach of vaccine clinics and vaccine distribution across the County underthe guidance of the Governor’s Executive Order and Health Advisory. This effort includes leveraging community partners, community health workersand health educators to identify, estimate and provide outreach to ensurehealth equity in COVID-19 vaccine distribution and to help target underservedcommunities or those disproportionately affected by COVID-19. Vaccination isoffered multiple days a week. The primary vaccination site is currently maintained through DOH-Collier,Collier County Emergency Management, Emergency Medical Services (EMS),Collier County Fire, Collier County Sheriff’s Office, Healthcare Network ofSouthwest Florida, and Collier County Parks. In addition to the primary vaccination site in North Collier Regional Park, thereare multiple vaccination efforts maintained by local partnerships. For a list ofadditional vaccination sites visit floridahealthcovid19.gov/. Highlights of partnerships and successes: Partnerships with DOH, EMS, North Collier Fire, City of Naples Fire, andMarco Fire to target 65+ in local communities, health care workers,independent living facilities, people with disabilities, and underservedcommunities This includes local communities and organizations with homeowner associations, low income residents, subsidized housing, rental communities, mobile homes, homebound, special needs clients, group homes and HUD residential areas. Partnerships with faith-based organizations, leadership of churches,synagogues, temples, volunteer, nonprofit and community-based organizationsthat serve seniors to identify individuals who meet criteria for vaccination andcoordinate vaccination. DOH-Collier has developed and shared a local process with organizations and communities that have interest in supporting these efforts. These organizations are providing support to local seniors for reserving appointments for the COVID 19 vaccination. - Among this group are the vulnerable and frail elderly, as well as thoseseniors who do not have the capacity, for one reason or another, to usetechnology, may be having difficulty with scheduling and who may be unable to transport to the vaccine sites. Examples of organizations include: - Faith-based organizations in underserved or rural areas and who serveminority groups - Naples Senior Center, Wounded Warriors, Greater Naples Leadership, andParkinson’s association Partnerships with local hospitals for vaccinating health care worker staff andpeople under 65 that are deemed extremely vulnerable per the GovernorsExecutive Order. DOH-Collier has provided dedicated days for frontline health care workers incoordination with the local medical society and hospitals to expand vaccine tohealth care providers including home health agencies, primary care providers,and hospice workers.

HELPING OUR SENIORS GET THE COVID 19 VACCINEHOW YOU CAN HELP The Leadership of Churches, Synagogues, Temples and faith-based communityorganizations serving seniors are getting many calls from frustrated seniorsbecause they are unsuccessful in securing a reservation to receive the COVID 19vaccination. Among this group are the vulnerable and frail elderly, as well asthose seniors who do not have the capacity, for one reason or another, touse technology. We are continuing to work with our community partners including county andhealth care providers to expand the reach of vaccine clinics and vaccinedistribution across Collier County under the guidance of the Governor’sExecutive Order. DOH-Collier is currently using an appointment-based system as vaccinesupplies are received. They will continue to modify the process per the needs ofthe community and feedback. Criteria: Must fall under the current Executive Order of those who are 65+ Individual agencies may choose to designate “at risk” groups within the parameters of the Executive Order - Not able to use technology or no access to technology Process: The leadership of the faith-based communities and any organizations serving seniors, will reach out to the seniors that fall under the above criteria. The agency understands that they are responsible for client contact, completion of registration, and serves as a point of contact for scheduling of the second dose. The full name and email address are required for a vaccine reservation - If the senior has no technology, the volunteer filling out the senior’s name must use their email address. The Florida Department of Health in Collier County has no current set schedule of when the vaccine will arrive. - DOH-Collier will be in contact with volunteers with instructions and next steps how to utilize the scheduling system. The senior or the senior’s representative (volunteer) will fill out the name and email address of the senior at this time. A ticket will be sent to the registration email address confirming the date and time of the vaccination clinic. - The ticket should be printed for each person registered and that each person receiving a vaccine must provide some form of i.d. and/or FL residency. A consent form is required and can be provided in advance from the Department of Health or the senior must fill it out at the vaccination site (no health insurance information is needed). ***Please note that the only State registered DOH-Collier site forvaccine clinics, currently is North Collier Regional Park. This is adrive-thru vaccination clinic and the leadership will be responsiblefor transportation if the senior cannot drive.

From:GrecoSherry To:TaylorPenny Subject:for review Date:Thursday, February 25, 2021 11:34:54 AM Importance:High To: The Commission ONE WAY COMMUNICATION Yesterday February 24, 2021, I met with Brian Stock, Keith Gelder and his attorney, Richard Yovanovich regarding the Stock development One Naples. The proposed development has proven to be an extremely controversial project and has visibility across the entire County. Given the importance of this project to the community as a whole, the Board of Collier County Commissioners decided to hold a Special Hearing for One Naples outside of their normal schedule. In the meeting yesterday, Mr. Stock communicated that Stock Development has secured a contract to purchase DaRuMa Restaurant, 241 Center St. N., Naples, FL 34108, adjacent to the One Naples development. It could be argued that this purchase will become an integral and dynamic part of the One Naples development. In fact, Mr Stock indicated that he was meeting with his planning staff that afternoon to review his existing plan and that an adjustment of setbacks might be considered. The Hearing date is set for Monday, March 1. The Special Hearing is an expensive endeavor for the County and the taxpayers. We anticipate that the hearing will be a full day, if not two days, given the complexity of the project and the outcry of public concern over One Naples. The meeting requires five (5) Collier County commissioners County, County Manager, Deputy County Manager, County Attorney and full Growth Management staff including Planning and Zoning Department, Traffic Department, Environmental, etc. Additionally, security will be required for both in the BCC Chambers and entrance to the building and depending upon the public response may require additional security staff. I am respectfully suggesting that we continue the One Naples hearing until such time as the revised plans for One Naples can be brought forward, giving our staff time to review those plans and giving the public time to review those plans. This would be a win, win for everyone. Given the requirements of the Sunshine Law, I respectfully suggest that we discuss this in person as the first topic on our agenda for Monday morning. I appreciate your consideration of my request.

Ray, I find it difficult to believe that the staff does not know, years into this application, what the answers are to my questions. I assume they would’ve been fundamental questions addressed at the onset of the application. If the applicants assertions as to the entitlement density or intensity are incorrect, then all of their analysis are incorrect; additionally, as the applicant does not own the .74 acres of road right of way, I would believe that that would be a fundamental matter to be raised during the review process, so that the applicants acreage for purposes of calculating usage would be based upon 4.7+ or minus acres. I would submit that the applicant Should be asked by county staff, in a RAI, to respond to and address the questions that I have raised, prior to the staff preparing any staff report. This project has the potential to have significant adverse impact to the surrounding established residential neighborhoods, and I believe it is appropriate for staff to ask these hard questions of the applicant prior to preparing a staff report.

Date:Tuesday, December 1, 2020 10:19:10 PM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source. Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Commissioner Taylor, I fully support the Pelican Bay Property Owners and Save Vanderbilt Beach and I hope you will VOTE TO DENY approval of the One Naples project. The PBPOA email below says it all. It is wrong for Vanderbilt Beach. It is wrong for Collier County and it is wrong to vote against the clearly STRONG message being given by the residents of not just Vanderbilt Beach, but all of Collier county. It is wrong for Collier County to be giving Stock almost $4,000,000 in land value by vacating the roads and giving them to Stock so that he can violate dozens of our zoning and Growth Management plan regulations. It is wrong to set this precedent by allowing Stock to totally obliterate the county’s Growth Management Plan, Zoning Code and Coastal Management Guidelines. It is wrong to not listen to the will of the tax paying constituents. It is wrong for taxpayers to have to raise/pay over $100,000 to just ask our Commissioners to enforce the laws that are already in place. Why does this happen? The One Naples project should have been denied at the planning department and never even gotten to this stage by just enforcing the laws already in place. I don’t think that is too much to ask of our elected officials. The RIGHT thing to do is for every Commissioner to VOTE TO DENY the changes requested by Stock development. It is the only responsible answer and I hope we can count on your support. George Marks 319 Lagoon Ave Naples, FL 34108 215-870-5543 From: Pelican Bay Property Owners Association <pbpoa@pbpropertyowners.org> Sent: Tuesday, December 1, 2020 9:45 PM To: George <gemarks7@gmail.com> Subject: It's about the will... Thousands of Collier County residents oppose One Naples as evidenced by the petitioners (2,769 unique names), hundreds of telephone calls, thousands of E- mails and over 20,000 letters to the Collier County Commissioners of which we are aware and/or initiated. Why does it appear that thousands of Collier County citizens' voices are falling on deaf ears and one voice (Stock’s) is being heard, when they are clearly wrong in trying to violate dozens of codes, covenants and rules? Stock Development has gotten themselves into a $25,000,000 mess and is trying to have Collier County bail them out. They have had many successful projects. This likely is not one of them, and it's not our (Collier County citizens) obligation to fix it at taxpayer’s expense. If "The Will of the People" to whom the Commissioners are pledged to serve prevails and not "The Will of the Stock," EVERY Commissioner should vote to reject One Naples. "It's not who's right, it's what's right." It is wrong in so many ways and the purest example of a developer throwing his/her money and muscle around for his/her own benefit. Collier citizens are the ones who will be severely negatively affected, as will those who won't even be born for another 30, 40, 50 or more years and beyond! The below comment from Collier County Planning Commissioner, Paul Shea, is taken word for word from the November 7th, 2020 edition of the Naples Daily News: “Paul Shea, the other commissioner who voted against recommending approval, said he didn't know how he could support the project, ignoring the thousands of letters and notes he'd received against it. In his mind, he said, it's the board's duty to help manage the growth in the county based on the county's growth management plan, which currently doesn't allow such an intense development on the site. Changes to the growth management plan, Shea argued, should be made when they benefit the community, which can be hard to measure at times, especially in this situation when so many neighbors are against the project. "To me, I don't think it's our role to go into a community like that and tell them what's best for them," he said. Now contrast that comment/quote with the following comment/'quote from Collier Collier Planning Commissioner, Paul Schmitt. “The real issue, Schmitt said, is what can be built that makes financial sense and creates a reasonable rate of return. He pointed out that developers don't build projects to "not make any money." "That's why they get into the development business," he said. One Commissioner, Paul Shea, listened and responded with his vote to the thousands of citizens of Collier County who voiced their opposition the One Naples Project as proposed. AND One Commissioner, Joe Schmitt, listened to or heard, as may be the case, only the voice of Stock Development as his expressed only concern, per the above statement, and verbalized that his sole concern is Stock Development's financial well being. He has expressed absolutely no sympathy or support for the residents, citizens, people who sent him thousands of communication opposing One Naples and requesting his "no" vote. This is exactly why people do not trust government. When self-serving and/or personal opinions, and/or influences often based on personal relationships transcend or appear to transcend the "will of the people," the PEOPLE have every right to object and to be outraged that their collective voices were ignored for the benefit of one voice. In January, 2021, The Board of Collier County Commissioners will address the One Naples Project and a final vote will be taken. There are five (5) Commissioners.

After our discussion, it was decided to schedule the hearing for a special stand-alone BCC meeting on the first of March. We will hold the meeting here at the main campus, using all our facilities for socially distanced overflow, allowing everyone who wishes to be heard to speak in person or virtually, as they choose, without the difficulties and risks of trying to recreate all our technical, audiovisual and security systems in an off-site location. I know many of you are interested in that hearing, and would want to know the outcome of that discussion. I will share more details as the date gets closer. (A prior version of the newsletter had an incorrect date -- be sure to mark your calendars for Monday, March 1, and our apologies for any confusion.) The main topic of our discussion yesterday was a progress report on the community's efforts toward implementing the Mental Health and Addiction Strategic Plan adopted by the County last year. It is truly amazing and inspirational what the group has accomplished in the middle of a pandemic. In the almost 30 years that I have been in Collier, I can't recall anything where the community has come together and accomplished so much so quickly. In an another year or two I think there will be a great book to be written about how all this came together. You can watch the full session HERE, or get the TL;DR version in the 2-minute video below. As always, very proud of our amazing community, H O T L I N E 866-779-6121 The best sources for clear information on the pandemic are our state health department or the CDC.

Importance: High Good morning Jeff and Heidi. As you know I represent the Vanderbilt Beach Residents Association, Inc, (VBRA), and as you are also aware, VBRA opposes the approval of the three pending One Naples applications. During the Planning Commission hearing, I raised the issue that the proposed MPUD would allow the construction of one massive tower. Attached are some excerpts from the Planning Commission hearings regarding whether the developer, based upon the proposed MPUD, could build one big, wide building on Tract MU Tract 1. In reviewing the proposed MPUD documents in the agenda packet, including the proposed conceptual Master Concept Plan (Exhibit C-1 ) and Development Standards Table (Exhibit B and its footnotes) I did not see such a prohibition or restriction. While Footnote #4 of Exhibit B states “ “Exhibit C, Sheet 3 of 4 depicts the location of the towers along Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive...”, in my review, Exhibit C, Sheet 3 of 4 only details setbacks and does not prohibit the construction of one massive tower on Tract MU Tract 1, nor does it show any footprint that would prohibit one “big, wide building”. Does the MPUD as proposed, prohibit the construction of one “big, wide building” on Tract MU1?

It includes residents from Vanderbilt Beach, Naples Park, Pelican Marsh, Pelican Ridge, Pine Ridge, Palm River, Regent Park, Vineyards, Wilshire Lakes and the other surrounding communities, as well as individuals as far out as Golden Gate Estates, who are opposed to One Naples as proposed. The spreadsheet contains the names and raw data of those 2,769 people who signed the petition opposing One Naples as proposed and the .pdf is a sample of each signed petition card.

I live in the area and I am watching all of the activity surrounding One Naples. While I am concerned about density, you should know that there are a large number of residents and homeowners who actually DO support the One Naples project and development. I happen to be one of them. I believe in balance when it comes to development and I think unreasonable development is not a good idea. By the same token, I believe that unreasonable voices opposed to One Naples are equally destructive and detrimental to the area. The entire SAVE VANDERBILT BEACH mantra needs to be permanently shelved. Vanderbilt Beach will be fine. In the same way your Pelican Bay community of rich snobs exists, other developments should be allowed to flourish. The idea that development is for a select few to the exclusion of others is downright silly. I have often thought how nice it would be to bulldoze Pelican Bay to the ground and return it to nature for example. However, I know that is about as ridiculous as this notion that somehow One Naples is going to bring calamity upon the area. Rather than take an unreasonable stand and oppose One Naples, why not embrace change and development next time you take that stage to speak your mind? I will be at the next meeting and I will stand in support of developing One Naples. I hope you will join the growing community of residents that are cheering on this project.

We’ve learned some things throughout the course of trying to prevent this One Naples tragedy. One of the biggest takeaways is that developers know no limits when it comes to getting their way. When Stock Development incentivizes the Barefoot Pelican Condominium Association with nearly $550,000 in cash & services to subscribe to Stock’s position, suddenly there are no boundaries for developers. If there is a resistance problem, they simply throw money at it until it is fixed to their satisfaction. The idea, apparently, is that everyone has a price. And we can expect more of the same with the Vanderbilt Palms Condo Association. One Naples is proposed for 5.4 acres of land in an already congested area at the intersection of two busy streets that cannot be widened. Remember, this is two 14 story towers, 3 five story residential buildings, 10,000 square feet of commercial space, up to 99 boat slips with a ship's store, gas pumps and tanks, rest rooms and parking, all jammed onto 5.4 acres and ... virtually right up against the sidewalks! Oh yes, there are setbacks, but no where near what the codes and covenants require. It’s the “canyon effect” for sure, Miami Part II. If Stock is allowed to do this to the Vanderbilt/Naples Park, Pelican Bay/ Parkshore and Pine Ridge communities, Stock and other self- serving developers can buy their way into your neighborhood, too, and completely compromise your quality of life solely for their benefit. What we can do to stop this: 1. If you have not already done so, please complete this survey (CLICK HERE).

That includes following the will of their constituents even when it may be at odds with their personal views. Government does not always know what's best given the same information as the electorate. I have always thought that the biggest complement that one could ever receive is to be elected to a position of public trust and responsibility by your peers. They are empowered, not only with the responsibilities of the job, but the responsibility to serve those who elected them in the first place, in the voters' interests. It is safe to say that most candidates for public offices, particularly local public offices where the constituents tend to be more consistent in their opinions, run with the best of intentions to serve their people. Then when elected, the money and muscle appear. The Lobbyists are relentless, and what was well intentioned suddenly is compromised. The personal strength of the elected official determines the extent to which these outside efforts are effective. To still be fighting this ridiculous One Naples monstrosity after thousands (1000's) of Collier County citizens have loudly expressed their outrage is wrong in itself. Never one to give up, Stock Development has a new initiative using one of the oldest tricks in the business. Let me explain. The neighboring and most affected condo association has received a tentative proposal from Stock Development offering several monetary "incentives" to the condo association if they agree to drop their opposition to the One Naples project and to publicly speak in favor of it and write a supporting letter to the Board of County Commissioners on Stock's behalf. The package is very significant, estimated to be between $300,000 - $400,000. Now this is where the oldest "trick" kicks in... Naturally, the 60 condo owners in the project do not agree on how the proposal should be managed. So what is Stock trying to do? Divide and conquer! Pit long-time friends and neighbors against each other for the benefit of... guess who?... Stock Development! And they are having success from what residents are reporting. Stock has no hesitation to destroy an entire condo community association’s way and quality of life. And to add ‘insult to injury’, there is another neighboring condo association that may also be facing the same decision. At the very least, there are ethical issues here. Stock Development' s One Naples project must to be stopped. Watch in the coming days for news about opposition rallies and protests around One Naples. Later this week we will know the January, 2021 date that the Board of County Commissioners will hear the One Naples proposal and vote. Please add it to your calendar and plan to attend the Board Meeting and participate in as many other activities as you can. Below is the contact information for the five (5) Collier County Commissioners. Please call them, E-mail them and write them expressing your opposition to this insidious project. It is absolutely amazing that collectively we have to go through all of this when Stock Development, alone, enjoys a higher priority on the attention meter of some Commissioners than the collective views of thousands of citizen voters who have expressed their opposition to One Naples.

(The opposite end of Gulf Shore Drive, at Bluebill Avenue.) We bought the condo pre-construction, and at that time, the developer, Mo Shave informed us that much of the adjacent land area was protected from development, notably, where the huge Dunes Condo development now sits. We were told this was "protected mangrove area, never to be developed". But, of course, this fell by the wayside, and a very large condo complex was developed. We would like to share with you (and sincerely hope you will read this in its entirety) some concerns Vanderbilt Beach north end owners have, as the ramifications of the large one Naples project will greatly impact us. Over the years, our promises and rights have slowly eroded. The Moraya Bay Condominium Complex, adjacent to the south end of Bluebill and Gulf Shore's public entrance, have blocked off all use of the beach in front of their complex. OF PARTICULARLY DISTURBING TO US, ON OUR ARRIVAL TO THIS AREA OF VANDERBILT BEACH IN NOVEMBER, WAS THE FACT THAT DELNOR-WIGGINS STATE PARK, ADJACENT TO THE NORTH END OF THIS PUBLIC ENTRANCE, HAS NOW ERECTED A ROPE BARICADE TO PROHIBIT ANYONE FROM WALKING ONTO THEIR BEACH! So once beach goers enter the Bluebill entrance, we literally have no where to sit, or a very small area of beach to use! So, begs the question, where does the city intend for more population to use beaches near us? ONE NAPLES INTENDS TO POSSIBLY WATER TAXI PEOPLE FROM THE VANDERBILT BEACH PUBLIC ACCESS TO OUR ACCESS? We don't even have a place to sit anymore, and they want to bring more people down here??? How did the city allow a public beach access, with dedicated beach parking (along Bluebill Avenue east of the bridge), and then not have a beach area for the public to sit at? This One Naples is such an overreach of the use of the property. In the past, access to Baker Carroll Point's entrance has been impossible to reach on popular weekends and busy holiday weekends! We have had to sit in lines of cars trying to access Delnor Wiggins State Park ( at times for 15 minutes or more) on Bluebill over the bridge, or sat in lines of people trying to bypass busy Bluebill Avenue and instead travel down Gulf Shore Drive from Vanderbilt Beach Road. How much more traffic could this area possibly handle? Bluebill and Vanderbilt Beach Road will be backed up to 41 if density continues to increase! I urge you, after seeing the unmanageable increase of human and vehicle traffic in this area in the last 25 areas, to vote NO to One Naples as proposed. I am not alone in my concerns, and would like you to consider all variables, as I mentioned, in making your final decision. Thank you.

During the closing the employees worked on the Post by painting, cleaning, installing new floors (to cover old asbestos floors), repairing ceiling tiles and replacing the 40-year old roof to protect the health of Veterans and their families. In the process we expended all of our operational funds to the point we were operating on a week-to-week basis paying our VFW employees. We got through the pandemic related closing successfully; however, we completely expended our Operational Funds in the process.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: I am an owner of a condo in Barefoot Pelican on 271 Southbay Drive and am a direct abutter to the One Naples properties. Brian Stock (One Naples) is in direct negotiations with my Board. He is offering incentives for my Board's endorsement of his One Naples's submission. He wants the Board to write a letter in favor as well as speak before the Commissioners in your Jan. meeting. I have attached a string of e-mails from Gelder as well as my e-m to Commissioner Paul Shea. I have attached his Memorandum of Understanding which lists his offer. He includes in this offer keeping Southbay Dr. public, landscaping and road improvements, a closed drainage system that my Board does not realize are part of his public submission and are not "gifts" to us. He has also offered to paint our building, the railings, and the roof and then give us a check representing 10% of the final cost of our seawall replacement. The value of these "gifts" is being touted as in excess of $400,000.00 Our Board is being threatened with lawsuits for Breach of Fiduciary Duty by a couple of owners if they do not comply and sign the agreement. We have 3 types of owners at Barefoot Pelican, residents who love the place and the location, Snowbirds who also love the place but do not reside there, and investors who bought a condo for financial appreciation as well as to rent their units. Brian Stock has succeeded in pitting neighbor against neighbor with this deal. He is trying to silence the community with these underhanded and divisive tactics. Before One Naples tried to come to Vanderbilt Beach, we all gathered for suppers at the pool, everyone bringing something. We gathered on the walkways to have a cocktail and enjoy the sunsets. The residents welcomed the Snowbirds and the renters alike. We were invited to go out on each other's boats. We celebrated birthdays and shared our lives with each other. The atmosphere at Barefoot Pelican is different now. Neighbors no longer speak to each other, there is no sharing of meals and lives. Mr Stock may be winning his game to divide and conquer but is this what is required for him to obtain his approvals? Why would he have to go through such measures if the community liked his project and thought it was an improvement to the neighborhood. We all know that the project requires vast overreach and will be harmful to the community at large. Does a payout of $400,000 make it all right now? This pitting of neighbor against neighbor means to me that Stock will go to any lengths to get his project jammed down our throats. We have talked to him at length about scaling it down to fit our community. This has fallen on deaf ears although he often says how he has listened. He has not! I would like to participate in a Zoom call with you to further discuss this unsettling problem that has been created by this developer. I would hope that this is not the means that this developer has to resort to in order to gain his approvals. If that is so, then something is seriously wrong with the whole process. I choose to believe that the process exists to protect the interests of the community first. That is why I am reaching out to you, my Commissioner, for guidance. I would sincerely appreciate your willingness to participate in a Zoom meeting with me.

The current Board is under a lot of pressure from the old President and her group to sign this and send it off the the owners for approval. They keep saying that the deal is worth $400,000 to us. She also has the ear of Brian Stock who is pushing this deal. I think the contract is not enforceable on 2 fronts: 1. It says their approvals have to be "non-appeal-able" (Everything is appeal-able) 2. It says they have to receive approval on "substantially" what they applied for. (How can you define that?) Also they include their submission improvements on Southbay as part of the Barefoot deal. This is wrong. I am compromised.

As outlined in our zoning presentation and shown on Exhibit C attached, we are proposing a significant amount of community enhancements (landscaping, sidewalks, bike lanes, street lighting, drainage, etc.) which we believe will be a benefit to Barefoot Pelican, Vanderbilt Palms, and the overall Vanderbilt Beach neighborhood. In response to Ted Ward’s latest correspondence on August 26, 2020, attached is our final offer in the form of a Memorandum of Understanding detailing the comprehensive list of capital improvements we are prepared to stand behind. Our latest offer includes several additional new items including re-painting the Barefoot Pelican roofs and exterior railings, guaranteed savings on the seawall replacement, and additional cleaning/maintenance during construction as requested. We believe the proposed One Naples project, community improvements, and voluntary concessions offered bring significant value and continuity to the neighborhood and are in the best interest of the Barefoot Pelican.

Dear Commissioners:, What comes before this board concerns not just those in the project impact area, but all of the Taxpayers of the Collier County. It seems that the Developers wishes and demands are being approved while the Taxpayer - WE the people- who put -you - the commissioners in office, praying that the commissioners' decisions would benefit all concerns - not just the developers. Because of prior plans, I will not be able to come and support the homeowners of Pelican Bay area to protest against this project. But I again wish to voice my concerns about this project. After seeing the actual area and hearing about the loss of beach access and parking, I became even more concerned - attached map of project. I have heard it said that it would be great for the economy - . This Project benefits - only - the development residents and developer - no public parking provided in the project and loss of existing beach front to build 99 boat slips. Not to mention the wall around the complex. What is economy- but money? (definition of economy - a system of making and trading things of value. It is usually divided into good (physical things) and services (thing done by people). It assumes there is medium of exchange, which is a system of Finance, making trade possible.) What about being good for the quality of life? (definition of quality of life - the degree to which an individual is healthy, comfortable and able to participate in or enjoy Live events - a multidimensional, encompassing emotional, physical material of social well-being.) What happens to the quality of life for the residents of Pelican Bay and Collier County Taxpayers that are losing the benefit of beach access and parking and will have to pay for the infrastructure and services that the developer does not pay? Where is their quality of Life? This will impact the traffic flow- already congested -had to circle at noon 2 x's to find a spot to park and it was not close to the beach. Bicycles are ridden a lot in that area, the streets are already very narrow for 2 way traffic let alone bikes and people. This Project is not according to the preset codes and zoning laws. Which it seems that the developers tend to ignore to build their massive projects. This will destroy what little there is left of Vanderbilt beach uniqueness. Please consider the existing residents, the year round residents and Collier County Taxpayers what they will lose with this project. Will it be filled with part-timers and renters or full time residents?

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. I had sent the following to Commissioner Solis earlier this week but thought it appropriate to now send to you as well. The proposed One Naples Living complex by Stock Development is a huge concern to me. It poses some significant issues including density, scale and traffic. However, the street wall as depicted in the sketch below poses the most substantial threat to the quality of life for local residents. This rendering is derived from Stock’s own sketch contained in their submission to the County. I merely expanded their sketch vertically to capture the full height of the tower. Stock’s proposal positions the face of the 180-200’ tower only 10’ from the public sidewalk used by local residents to reach Vanderbilt Beach. The scale, height and shadows cast by the tower in this location are downright oppressive. I have no qualms with Stock developing the super-parcel they have accumulated; however, I respectfully urge the commissioners to ensure they develop it “as of right” with no variances, exceptions or incentives. Thank you. Rich Gallagher Begin forwarded message: From: richroni gallagher <randrgall@gmail.com> Subject: One Naples Living Date: January 8, 2020 at 4:30:59 PM EST To: SolisAndy <Andy.Solis@CollierCountyFL.gov> The link you provided to the documentation related to Stock Develoment’s proposal for One Naples Living was most helpful. Thanks again. I have a lot of concerns with the proposal including many of the issues you already alluded to (e.g. traffic, density, etc.). In short, I have no objections to Stock developing the super parcel they have accumulated but feel strongly they should develop it in compliance with existing zoning regulations with no variances or exemptions. However, this note is intended to articulate perhaps my most worrisome concern- That is to say the resulting street wall. I offer the attached rendering to convey my concern. The proposal will create a 16 story + parking garage street wall a mere 10 feet set back from the property line on Vanderbilt Beach Road. The resulting condition is more typical of the concrete caverns of Manhattan than Naples. The sketch is actually derived from one of Stock's renderings included in their formal submission to the County. I merely expanded the drawing vertically to capture the top of the tower. There are certainly other similarly sized towers in the vicinity; however, all of those are setback significantly further and avoid the oppressive street wall associated with Stock’s proposal. I think the sketch speaks for itself. I hope you find this interesting and look forward to the public earrings and ongoing dialogue. Thanks again.

My question was not addressed during the meeting, and I, along with many of my friends/neighbors in Naples Park, am very concerned about the One Naples project. Our neighborhood does not have sidewalks, nor do our streets have shoulders, and we are a very active walking neighborhood. I am concerned about the impact to our neighborhood should the One Naples project move forward. I would be happy to walk you around our neighborhood (masked, of course) to show you the concerns we have. We do not have sidewalks on east/west streets, we do not have crosswalks to cross Vanderbilt Drive and there is a lot of traffic along Vanderbilt Drive (especially during traditional rush hour) and people drive very quickly (we have 25 mph posted throughout our neighborhood). I look forward to your response and I hope you would be willing to come see why we are concerned. Thanks!

Honorable Commissioners, Below is a letter to Mr. Bellos of your staff expressing opposition to the proposed Naples One project. The meeting Tuesday was quite remarkable...so many local residents voicing their genuine concerns and registering informed and thoughtful data underscoring the ludicrous nature of this project. As noted in my communication to Mr. Bellos, the scale of this project and the resultant harm caused to residents (including generational families) is impossible to quantify. If the Stock group wants to maintain hope of developing this site, they should withdraw it and present another less offensive option that preserves the integrity of their firm and County government. If community feedback such as that displayed Tuesday evening is ignored, irreparable damage will be thrust upon the Commission and Stock. Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions or comments. Thank you in advance for your thoughtful and favorable consideration of this request.

It is not a situation where there is some minor tweaking/negotiations to be held with the Developer, it is a project so grossly out of balance with the interests of community residents, it should be withdrawn and completely resubmitted with massive reductions in scale...if the developer is unwilling to voluntarily withdraw it from consideration, it must be denied. I will not repeat the number of concerns referenced at the meeting regarding density, height, environmental, traffic congestion and many other shortcomings that were made by a number of opposition colleagues...I will focus my comments on several additional factors. Safety...This project puts all local residents at increased risk for an orderly evacuation of the area due to hurricane/storm surge conditions. Does the County want to assume substantial liability due to their approval of this project in its current form? The chaos under these circumstances would likely contribute to injury and perhaps even deaths to area residents. Traffic is problematic now and approval would only exacerbate this issue. Review Process...Given the fact this project is even under review in its current form is incredulous. The magnitude of zoning variances and other developmental standards should Have resulted in suspending any staff consideration at the outset. It is not only the number of variances, it is the magnitude of such variances. Without question, it is the wrong project for the wrong parcel of land. Independent Review...It has been reported the Developer paid nearly $20 Million for the parcels equating to approximately 5.5 acres. It is curious to note these purchases were NOT conditioned on obtaining necessary zoning and other variances. Why do you believe an experienced developer such as Stock would take this unusual risk? Perhaps he believed the community would be passive and he would easily receive approval...this is clearly not the case. A more plausible answer would be that he received encouragement from County officials and staff to make such purchases and that zoning changes would be forthcoming. If this is the case, the ability to conduct an unbiased and independent review is terribly compromised. This overreach in pursuit of tax revenues must be balanced against needs and desires of community residents. Winners and Losers...Let me identify, “winners” if this project or anything close to it is approved. The most obvious is the group of yet to be identified multimillionaire purchasers of these condos. What is your responsibility to accommodate these individuals? The second winner is the Stock Development Company. The scale of this endeavor is irresponsible and their pursuit of maximizing profit is clearly an illustration of greed in its highest degree. The third winner is the County. While tax revenues resulting from this undertaking would be substantial, they come at the expense of local residents. A substantially reduced project would still result in substantial additional revenues to increase salaries and pensions of County employees from projects such as this. The losers are the folks wearing the red shirts and red hats along with others in attendance at Tuesday’s meeting. I suspect many other opponents could not attend meeting but feel strongly in their opposition. Effectively, the County through its approval would be approving a “quality of life” burden/tax on local residents. It is ironic since they should be placed at the pinnacle of the winners of responsible development but their reactions and concerns have been ignored throughout this entire process. In closing, I would urge the Developer to voluntarily withdraw the pending proposal and resubmit a substantially reduced alternative. If they are unwilling, the Commissioners must deny their request or be guilty of regulatory malpractice. I suspect the Developer will claim the economic feasibility of the project becomes questionable if reduced but would remind you that you are not responsible for financial feasibility but owe an allegiance to the residents of the community. Finally I want to let you know I am planning to send a copy of this communication to the Commissioners and local media. I apologize for the length of this communication and ask that you give careful consideration to these concerns.

Good morning Jeff and Heidi. As you know I represent the Vanderbilt Beach Residents Association, Inc, (VBRA), and as you are also aware, VBRA opposes the approval of the three pending One Naples applications. During the Planning Commission hearing, I raised the issue that the proposed MPUD would allow the construction of one massive tower. Attached are some excerpts from the Planning Commission hearings regarding whether the developer, based upon the proposed MPUD, could build one big, wide building on Tract MU Tract 1. In reviewing the proposed MPUD documents in the agenda packet, including the proposed conceptual Master Concept Plan (Exhibit C-1 ) and Development Standards Table (Exhibit B and its footnotes) I did not see such a prohibition or restriction. While Footnote #4 of Exhibit B states “ “Exhibit C, Sheet 3 of 4 depicts the location of the towers along Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive...”, in my review, Exhibit C, Sheet 3 of 4 only details setbacks and does not prohibit the construction of one massive tower on Tract MU Tract 1, nor does it show any footprint that would prohibit one “big, wide building”. Does the MPUD as proposed, prohibit the construction of one “big, wide building” on Tract MU1? Thanks Tony Under Florida Law, e-mail addresses are public records.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner: I have attached a diagram that I prepared about the lack of consistency of the One Naples development with the Vanderbilt Beach Neighborhood. Basically, One Naples is pushing over the limit as to what is allowed and what will fit to be complimentary to the neighborhood. These buildings would fit better if they observed the correct setbacks and agreed to at least 25 feet around the whole perimeter of this project. This would naturally reduce the density and be more palatable to the neighborhood because it would not be the massive eyesore that we see in the plans. I have heard that he has a contract to purchase Daruma and I would imagine that some "horse trading" will ensue on Monday. I am thinking that he may be using Daruma to meet some open space requirements, but please do not let this negate the necessity for maintaining sufficient setbacks so that his buildings are not next to the sidewalk. None of us want this over-reaching development, no matter what incentives Brian Stock is willing to pay to get his way. He has to abide by the Zoning Law or he not be the first to flaunt the Zoning with offerings of incentives and then, the whole Zoning will collapse as others rush in and purchase small parcels of land to build towers. As you have assured me, I know you will take into consideration the views of the public in this matter.

It is wrong for the commissioners to give land valued at more than $4,000,000 to the developer. 3. It is wrong for the commissioners to set future precedent by voting to approve a project with so many major variances. 4. It is wrong for the commissioners to ignore the will of their tax-paying constituents. It would be right for the developer to come back with a plan that addresses the concerns listed above.

There is an old saying, “Where there is smoke, there is fire”. I would hope that on the basis of good government that the Commissioners would thoroughly investigate these charges. If Stock is willing to stoop so low on the ethics scale in public, what is going on behind the scenes in the rest of Collier County? I’m sure as concerned representatives of the voters of Collier County, that you as the Commissioners would want to have this investigated to see if such activities are true and if similar measures are occurring in other areas within Collier County’s government and processes. As the upstanding representatives of our community, I would hope that you would feel as appalled as the rest of us as to why this is happening? If this was such a wonderful project and good for Collier County, why would it be necessary for Stock to be spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy people’s support? Shouldn’t that in itself be a reason to deny the Stock One Naples application? I would hope that the Commissioners see the need for a FULL investigation into these allegations and into whether or not other questionable ethics violations exist prior to any vote being taken and if true that the Commissioners would immediately DENY THE ONE Naples Growth Management plan amendment in the best interest of Collier county, the voters and the taxpayers.

For representative government to work as designed and to be efficient, those who are chosen to serve through the election process have to represent the interests of the people who elected them. That includes following the will of their constituents even when it may be at odds with their personal views. Government does not always know what's best given the same information as the electorate. I have always thought that the biggest complement that one could ever receive is to be elected to a position of public trust and responsibility by your peers. They are empowered, not only with the responsibilities of the job, but the responsibility to serve those who elected them in the first place, in the voters' interests. It is safe to say that most candidates for public offices, particularly local public offices where the constituents tend to be more consistent in their opinions, run with the best of intentions to serve their people. Then when elected, the money and muscle appear. The Lobbyists are relentless, and what was well intentioned suddenly is compromised. The personal strength of the elected official determines the extent to which these outside efforts are effective.

Collier County citizens have loudly expressed their outrage is wrong in itself. Never one to give up, Stock Development has a new initiative using one of the oldest tricks in the business. Let me explain. The neighboring and most affected condo association has received a tentative proposal from Stock Development offering several monetary "incentives" to the condo association if they agree to drop their opposition to the One Naples project and to publicly speak in favor of it and write a supporting letter to the Board of County Commissioners on Stock's behalf. The package is very significant, estimated to be between $300,000 - $400,000. Now this is where the oldest "trick" kicks in... Naturally, the 60 condo owners in the project do not agree on how the proposal should be managed. So what is Stock trying to do? Divide and conquer! Pit long-time friends and neigh bors against each other for the benefit of... guess who?... Stock Development! And they are having success from what residents are reporting. Stock has no hesitation to destroy an entire condo community association’s way and quality of life. And to add ‘insult to injury’, there is another neighboring condo association that may also be facing the same decision. At the very least, there are ethical issues here. Stock Development' s One Naples project must to be stopped. Watch in the coming days for news about opposition rallies and protests around One Naples. Later this week we will know the January, 2021 date that the Board of County Commissioners will hear the One Naples proposal and vote. Please add it to your calendar and plan to attend the Board Meeting and participate in as many other activities as you can. Below is the contact information for the five (5) Collier County Commissioners. Please call them, E-mail them and write them expressing your opposition to this insidious project.

I attended a presentation by Stock Development on February 21 of its plans for One Naples. The 240-unit project includes two 18 story buildings (75 units each) which will have slight street setbacks and will visually appear as gigantic walls from the road. Stock’s traffic studies show peak travel will increase to about 270 vehicles per hour on Vanderbilt Beach Road. The Stock team said that they do not expect the County to widen this single lane road. Most One Naples traffic will exit by turning east across the westbound lane on Vanderbilt which will necessitate more traffic lights or other restraints on traffic flow. They could not give a perspective on what 270 cars an hour looks like on a single lane road. I’ve driven on that end of Vanderbilt lately and often found it backed up to the Pavilion mall entrance. The high-rise units each will cost $1 million minimum and some substantially more. So, to provide upscale housing for a small number of affluent families, accommodations that could be found in Pelican Bay and the other upscale housing in the area, Stock and the County are permanently removing what seems to be the last property that could support the beach visitor requirements of the burgeoning County population east of 41. This seems very short-sighted. Yes, a well-designed and landscaped garage would also increase traffic flow and it would add to the beach population. A widened Vanderbilt really seems to make great sense. The beach to each side of its entrance has lots of room. Please don’t let this opportunity to make our prized beaches available to many more residents. You missed a great chance when you didn’t buy the hotel property adjacent to Wiggins. You really can’t afford to do it again.

Dear Commissioners, As you know, One Naples is massive and not consistent or compatible with the neighborhood. There would be negative impacts on Pelican Bay and the surrounding area stemming from further overcrowding of already crowded Vanderbilt Beach; a large increase in Vanderbilt Beach Road traffic that would spill over onto the streets of Pelican Bay; and a dangerous precedent of a massive, high density residential project with small setbacks that could give rise to many more similar developments along Gulf Shore Drive. There is no proposed retail and it appears there is inadequate engineering and environmental studies for the oversized boat and marine facility with storage tanks, gas dock, boat docks and dredging from Federal or State environmental review. This may present significant legal, regulatory and liability risk to Collier County and Commissioners. For all the obvious reasons, the County Commissioners should deny the Growth Management Plan amendment for One Naples. Thank you for your careful review and consideration.

Coffee with The Commissioner 4-8-20 Veterans Parkway Extension image Veterans Memorial Parkway Extension Update I’ve gotten a lot of questions lately about the Veterans Memorial Parkway Extension. As they hear talk about the new high school, people are asking when the road construction will begin. Here’s a bit of a recap and an update: The Parkway Extension has been on the County’s long-term plans for a while, but with the School Board’s decision to open the new high school in Fall 2023, our plans have been accelerated. To facilitate construction of the school, County staff has decided to split the project into two phases/contracts: Phase I: Livingston to the new high school; and Phase II: New high school to Old 41. It is anticipated the road will have sidewalks on both sides, with bike lanes and 2 travel lanes in each direction. Currently, the County’s Environmental Consultants are doing the permitting work for the roadway, while the School Board is in their design process. We submitted a permit request to the US Army Corps of Engineers last fall, and our Environmental Resource Permit applications to the South Florida Water Management District earlier this month. These agencies have their own timelines, and we expect their reviews to take several months. The School Board hopes to begin construction sometime in the summer of 2021, and we hope to be able to provide them at least temporary access to the site by then. Along the way, as with most roadway projects, there will be 3 Public Information Meetings: one each at the 30% design plan, at 60%, and at construction kick- off. None of those are yet planned; we expect the first, at 30%, to be sometime early in 2021. So currently, our goals are first public meeting in winter of 2021, temporary access for construction later that year, and Phase 1 completion by the start of the school year in 2023. We will keep you posted on all the meetings and progress on the construction through this newsletter. We had some very interestiong discussions at the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) meetings in February. A few were particularly important to our little part of Collier County, so I'm happy to share some updates on them below. Click on the accompanying images if you're interested in watching the Board's discussion on that topic from our video archives. I was very pleased to make the motion to approve the design contract for this expansion project. Since it is expansion of an existing road, we don’t have the same level of permitting issues as on the Veterans extension discussed above, so our timelines are a bit more solid. The 1.8 mile project to widen this roadway from four to six lanes will include: Maintaining existing sidewalks and providing bike lanes; Improved roadway intersections at Strada Place and Goodlette Frank Road; Improved drainage throughout the project area. Design work will begin immediately; here’s the anticipated schedule for the rest of the project: Design Complete: September 2021 Start Construction: March 2022 Construction Complete: May 2023 This design phase will cost just over $1 million; the total estimated construction cost for the whole project is approximately $13 million. I know that landscaping on this stretch of Vanderbilt is a high priority for many nearby residents. Completion of this project will make it eligible for the landscaping program, and I am confident that we will work out the growing pains on the maintenance costs in the meantime. pump station graph One of the biggest concerns I heard in the aftermath of Hurricane Irma had to do with the failures in our wastewater pump station emergency plans. How it was intended to work (and how it has always worked in the past), was for nearby unaffected counties and out-of-town contractors to come and pump out the stations as needed until power could be restored. Irma, however, was a black swan – an extremely rare, unforeseen event with severe impacts. Never before had one storm affected the entire state at one time (and right on the heels of another devastating storm in a nearby state). All those out-of-town contractors had contracts with multiple counties and couldn’t service them all. And we were more impacted than ever before: 841 of our 846 pump stations lost power, and it stayed out for longer than anticipated. The important thing is that we learned from that experience, and we are now better prepared than ever, as the graph above shows. I recommend you watch the brief discussion at the Board meeting, HERE or by clicking the image above. But the short version is that we’ve received a grant from the state Department of Emergency Management to equip an additional 53 pump stations with back-up power, which will result in more than double the number we had going into Irma. Combined with the portable generators and our additional pump-out trucks which can be deployed where needed, we are in good shape for the inevitable next storm. Clam Pass Park Boardwalk Replacement & Restroom Expansion Now that the idea of a parking garage at Clam Pass has been firmly rejected, we have shifted to maintaining the beautiful park. After a beach renourishment project at the end of last year, we are now focusing on the park’s infrastructure. The 3000-foot long boardwalk has deck boards that are over 25 years old and nearing the end of their useful life. For quality and longevity, we will replace all the decking and handrails with Ipe lumber. This hardwood is extremely dense and durable and should stand up to the daily foot and vehicle traffic for decades. In addition, the existing restroom facilities are not ADA compliant, and are wholly inadequate for the park’s needs in season. This expansion will bring the existing structure into ADA compliance and quadruple the number of facilities. The Boardwalk Deck Replacement portion of the project will be scheduled in the off-season. And all these projects – the beach renourishment, new deck and new restroom facilities – will be paid for by tourist tax dollars. For those interested in taking a deeper dive, the BCC meets on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of (almost) every month beginning at 9am in the BCC chambers (marked 'County Admin' on THIS map); agendas and back-up materials will be available on the preceding Thursday HERE. You are always welcome to attend, or to watch live on either your cable channel 97/98 or online HERE. Shortly following the meetings, videos will be available to watch HERE. I think most of the neighboring residents are aware of the upcoming Neighborhood Information Meeting (NIM) for the One Naples proposal. There is, however, a new location (and most of you are probably aware of that, as well; this is just in case). The NIM was moved both because people were complaining that the prior location was too far from the neighborhood, and because there probably wouldn't have been enough room for all who wish to attend. Our statute requires all property owners within a certain distance of the proposed rezoning to be notified -- all those neighbors will have received the updated location, but interest extends well beyond those communities. If you know anyone interested in this NIM -- and I encourage anyone with questions or concerns to attend -- please share the information about the updated location with them. UPDATED VERSION: Many readers found the information below to be helpful, and many new subscribers have asked to receive it, so I have updated it and reprinted it below. I have heard from many of you about the proposed One Naples project at Vanderbilt Beach and Gulfshore, asking about a timeline for this project. (Most of you mention you’ve visited the updated OneNaples.com website, so you’ve seen their description of the proposed development and I won’t bother to repeat that. If you haven't, the website has lots of information and renderings to view.) Here's what I can tell you: After months of inactivity, this proposal was re- submitted at the end of October. Currently the application is being reviewed by staff. The first Review Letter, listing areas where staff has further questions or what items might be deficient, was sent out at the end of November. The developer reviewed staff’s questions and concerns and re-submitted a complete new application at the end of January. This second application is now being reviewed by staff. Most applications go through this cycle several times before they are deemed complete and scheduled for public hearings. So there is no timeline yet to share. As you probably know, our Land Development Code requires the developer to hold a Neighborhood Information Meeting (NIM); the NIM must be held at least 15 days before the Planning Commission hearing, but could be held anytime between staff's first review and then. As mentioned above, that meeting will happen next week. You can read the application and review letters in the public portal for our Growth Management Division HERE. Click on “Status and Fees” under the “Planning Department.” Once you prove you’re a human, you can search for One Naples or use the applications numbers. The application number for the PUD is 20190000697, and for the Small Scale Growth Management Plan Amendment it is 20190000696. Most of the information seems to be under the PUD application number. You will be able to follow along through the entire process at this site. As with most rezones, there will be numerous revisions to the application requested by staff, the public, and the Collier County Planning Commission. It has always been my practice not to comment on an application until after the staff has reviewed it, the NIM has occurred, and the Planning Commission has vetted the application in a public hearing. Many times, especially on large rezones, significant changes are made during that process. I want to see what it is that the Commissioners will be asked to consider before making comments. Otherwise, I could be commenting on something that won't even be included in the final proposal. Having said that, there are significant issues that the applicant will need to adequately address -- traffic concerns, density, building heights, etc. I anticipate that many people will attend and participate in the NIM and the Planning Commission meeting and I encourage all interested parties to do so. I will be watching the process closely. Did a friend send you this email?Click HERE to subscribe! Copyright © 2020 Andy Solis, District 2 County Commissioner, All rights reserved.

Dear Commissioner Taylor, I am writing to you today in support of the One Naples project and ask you to vote yes on all items that will allow the project to proceed as planned. As a local business owner, I have had the opportunity to work with Stock Development over many years on multiple video projects. I know, firsthand, that Stock Development is an ethical company that truly believes in doing the right thing for the community, while developing quality projects and protecting the unique quality of life we are all so fortunate to enjoy here in Collier County. As someone who raised a family here, I have watched Collier County grow for over 25 years. Just like you, I want what’s best for the community. I want Collier County to continue to grow, ethically and responsibly and I believe that the One Naples project will contribute positively to that growth. I believe the opposition is being deceptive in their presentation of the facts about the project and the renderings they have displayed do not at all reflect Stock’s plans for lush landscaping and well-designed buildings that will blend right in to the area. Contrary to what the opposition has been saying, Stock has directly addressed concerns about traffic and I believe this is the best option to keep traffic to a minimum. In addition, the building heights have been reduced to levels that are lower than some of the neighboring condominiums. The “canyon of buildings” argument simply isn’t valid in my opinion. Finally, as a Hispanic American, I take personal offense to the opposition’s usage of terms like “Miami West” or “Miamification of Naples” in their advertising. In the past, I have heard people use terminology like this to discriminate against people of Hispanic or Jewish descent. Whether that’s their intention or not, it’s simply done in poor taste and does not reflect well on the people of Collier County. In the end, I believe that the One Naples project will create many good-paying jobs and it will be a good source of property tax income for the County. Thank you for your time and consideration. And thank you for your continued efforts to make Collier County a great place to live while protecting our unique quality of life! P.S. I hope all is well with you and your family! I have been seeing your photography book all around town.... love it!!!

Now, residents are banding together to clean out the rest of the junk dumped around their neighborhoods ahead of the event’s second week. “This place is so beautiful, we all live here because we love nature and we respect every single piece of plant and animal that lives here,” resident Sofi Bocque said. Last week, Bocque’s neighbor discovered illegally dumped construction debris and cow legs at the south end of 4th Street Northwest, near a canal lining Immokalee Road. “Keep your trash in your car, put it in the garbage afterwards. It’s not a big deal, it’s just easy, and keep our neighborhoods clean,” Bocque said. Incidents like this inspired the county to launch the free cleanup events. Last Saturday brought in more than 160 residents. “We filled up over five containers with construction demolition so quite a bit,”said Kari Hodgson, director of Solid Waste Management. Meanwhile, the county took to the streets to collect the trash after neighbors cleaned up the trail. Anyone who witnesses illegal dumping is asked to call 311. County hosts community Golden Gate Estates clean-up event NBC-2 2/19/21 Collier County Solid Waste is holding a neighborhood cleanup in Golden Gate Estates after complaints of trash piling up in the community. The event is Saturday from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. and again the following Saturday at the same time. Community members will have the opportunity to clean up their street and clean out their home, according to event organizers. This cleanup comes after trash was being left behind in the neighborhood including dishwashers, tools, boxes, shirts and more. Illegally dumped cow carcasses worry some Golden Gate Estates residents NBC-2 2/17/21 Neighbors living in a northeastern Golden Gate Estates neighborhood are concerned after a couple found illegally dumped cow remains. Monday afternoon, Missi Bellmande and her husband were taking a stroll at the south end of 4th Street Northwest. She said, “That area is a really pretty part of the estates.” The couple made a horrifying discovery as they approached the canal lining Immokalee Road. She said, “We saw two piles…it looked like construction debris dumped at the end of it. It was stucco- covered wood and boards with nails and stuff like that in just a bunch of black garbage bags.” Then something else caught their eyes just a few feet away. “I noticed the smell and I looked down and I saw a cow leg…like literally a full-sized cow leg,” she said. “I continued to look around the area and there was the hide and another leg.” Bellande worried the cow was stolen and slaughtered. The couple called 911. Investigators on scene determined the remains had been there for up to two weeks. Luckily they didn’t match the descriptions of any missing cows in the area. Meredith Budd with the Florida Wildlife Federation said more than just the cow was harmed here. “Decomposing bodies…decaying carcasses can cause bacterial contamination to our water, especially when you see it so close to our canal systems. That’s a human health and safety concern,” Budd said. Budd urges people to call your local waste management districts when unsure of how to get rid of something. Collier County Solid Waste Management is actively working to prevent incidents like this. On February 20 and 27 from 8 am to noon, the Tim Nance Recycling Center near the Collier Fairgrounds will take any clutter, including bulk items. Residents usually pay $12 per cubic yard. Collier County Guest opinion: One Naples has 'morphed from truly outrageous to simply atrocious' Naples Daily News 2/25/21 Brian Stock was given his opportunity, in this space, to present his proposed One Naples development to the community. I have respect for Mr. Stock and his company. He has done many good things. Sadly, One Naples will not be one of them. Mr. Stock compares his Vanderbilt Beach neighborhood project with the Ritz Carlton and the “luxury condominium towers of Pelican Bay.” He fails to point out that Pelican Bay is a 2,100 acre Planned Development, nearly 400 times larger than his own site, with extensive building setback requirements and more than 500 acres of open space. It is true that One Naples, as currently proposed, has changed significantly from its original design. It has morphed from truly outrageous to simply atrocious. Stock seeks a density of up to 172 residential units in a coastal high hazard area where 87 are permitted. He seeks building heights of 186 feet where County Planning staff has stated that 76 feet is compatible with the neighborhood. He seeks fifteen-foot setbacks to a wall 35 feet high stretching more than 700 feet along Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive. Setbacks to his 186-foot towers range between 25 and 30 feet where the requirement is for 93 feet. He seeks to count second floor private amenities such as swimming pools and cabanas as a significant portion of the required open space. True, he offers to provide numerous area improvements, traffic lights, bicycle paths, etc. But these come at the cost of destroying a neighborhood. And who really benefits? Just Stock, himself, and 172 new condominium owners. Lately, Mr. Stock has been taking out advertisements promoting One Naples in the same way that his opinion piece did. Does he “protest too much?” If One Naples were the wonderful development he describes, would such advertisements be necessary? Would he have to offer a nearby condominium project inducements valued at over $500,000 in order to solicit a letter of support? Recently, Save Vanderbilt Beach and other neighborhood groups have sponsored a “Growth Management Survey” to determine community attitudes toward growth and development throughout Collier County. As of this writing 2,125 responses to the survey have been received. More than 92% of them have called for County Commissioners to deny the amendment to the County’s Growth Management Plan (GMP) that Stock seeks. These numbers fly in the face of Mr. Stock’s statement that he is “encouraged by the many who enthusiastically await our project.” If constructed, One Naples will be a disaster for Vanderbilt Beach. It will mark the beginning of the “Miamification” of the neighborhood. No longer will future developers have to point to Pelican Bay to justify their too dense, too tall, aspirations. They will simply have to point to One Naples to make their case that their design is compatible and complementary to the area. County Commissioners meet on March 1 to consider Stock’s requests. Save Vanderbilt Beach Inc has been joined by the Vanderbilt Beach Residents Association, the Naples Park Area Association, the Pelican Bay Property Owners Association, the Collier County Presidents Council, and thousands of others throughout the County in demanding that the Commissioners deny Stock’s request to amend the GMP. Will the commissioners be deaf to the demands of their constituents as they have many times in the past? If so, watch out, Collier County, you are on your way to becoming the Miami of the west coast. Buzz Victor is President for Save Vanderbilt Beach, Inc. New park could be a safe place for Collier County families during pandemic WINK News 2/20/21 Big Corkscrew Island Regional Park is planned for the area near the Collier County fairgrounds. Families are hoping it can be a safe place for children to stay active during the pandemic. Plans for the park include fields for recreational sports, an outdoor gym and an aquatics center. Another addition in the park is especially for kids. Parents say this is the perfect time for a park to be built in the community. “It’s pretty cool,” said Jennifer Borges’ son. “It looks nice,” And kids aren’t the only ones excited about the new Big Corkscrew Island Regional Park construction in Golden Gate Estates. Daryl Digirlamo says this will be a good experience for his kids. “We’re excited just trying to give my kids that experience I had growing up,” he said. The parents are happy as well. After being cooped up in their homes for so long because of the pandemic, a new park is a perfect and safe addition to this community. “It’s kinda cool to be free and get back to some normalcy out there and be able to play,” Digirolamo said. “They need it. He just went back to school because we’ve been at home doing the homeschooling thing, but they need an outlet,” said Borges. The $45 million project will have not one, but four soccer fields, a community center, a dog park, two softball fields and a pool. “I think it’s going to be great. We definitely need something for the youngsters in the community out here in the estates,” Borges said. Parents are also thrilled that the park will be close by so they can take their children. They say this is something Golden Gate Estates is lacking. “As the city grows and expands out this way, it’s cool to bring parks we would probably have to travel in the city for,” said Digirolamo. You can already see that the construction process is in full swing. The county says the north end of the project is set to open in April and the south end of the park should be open by July. Rural village proposal on Immokalee Road draws concerns Naples Daily News 2/18/21 Developers of a potential rural village off Immokalee Road in Collier are asking the county to change a portion of a rural growth plan, drawing concerns from environmental groups and those opposed to development in the area. The county’s planning commission unanimously voted Thursday to agree to the changes. The amendments will now be sent to the board of county commissioners for approval, a process known as transmittal. Edwin Fryer, chairman of the planning commission, said after voting that he will, at a later date, drill down on issues he sees so the public can understand what is going on. “I’m going to vote in favor of this because there has been sufficient public speaking against certain aspects of it so it will have to be considered by the board of county commissioners, not on the consent agenda but there will have to be a hearing,” Fryer said. The proposal outlines a potential village containing up to 4,000 residences with areas set aside for commercial and civil development. The area to be developed would be just west of Everglades Boulevard on Immokalee Road. Richard Yovanovich, representing the developer, said the changes are needed for any type of village to occur. “We are coming through with certain tweaks because in order for a village to occur there needs to be tweaks. Otherwise it makes no economic sense,” he said. The developer is a partnership linked to Palm Beach billionaire Jeff Greene. The proposed area for development is under the county’s Rural Fringe Mixed-Use Development plan, originally created to discourage urban sprawl and protect wetlands and wildlife. The plan uses a credit system designed to protect certain areas from development while allowing developers to exercise their rights. The area, called the Immokalee Road Rural Village Overlay, has been in the works for about two years, Yovanovich said. “Candidly, if we don’t get transmittal we just need to stop and not spend anymore,” he said. “We started this about two years ago and are at a point where we need to know if these tweaks will be supported by the Board of Collier Commissioners.” Local environmental advocate groups have been in talks with the developer in hopes of having wildlife crossings put in and certain habitats created. The boundaries of the proposed area contain both primary and secondary Florida panther habitat. Meredith Budd of the Florida Wildlife Federation said it’s apparent that panthers are being struck and killed by cars just west of the proposed village on Immokalee Road. “That’s not only an issue for wildlife, but there are human safety issues as well,” Budd said. “It’s a relatively high-speed road and hitting a bear at that speed is certainly a human safety concern. A large crossing, preferably two, really need to be considered and planned along this segment of the roadway.” The area is surrounded by already preserved lands to the north and west, so wildlife will persist in those areas. Budd said it’s critical that the internal roadways of a potential village also include traffic calming measures such as reduced speeds and speed bumps. Planning commissioner Joe Schmitt asked representatives of the developer if wildlife crossings would just bring large mammals into residential areas. Environmental consultant for the applicant, Andy Woodruff, said the lands panthers used in the area have already been chopped up because of development activity around the proposed site, so it’s basically a dead end for them. Woodruff said there’s a concern that crossings would funnel panthers into the Golden Gate Estates just east of the proposed development site, but the developer will continue working with local groups on the matter. Should panthers be evicted for new community in Collier County? WINK News 2/18/21 Development vs. wildlife: Should a 1,000-acre town be built east of Golden Gate Estates in Collier County? Those living in one community are in an uproar because protected Florida panthers already live there. Rae Ann Burton describes living in Golden Gate Estates as an escape. “The reason that people moved to rural Golden Gate Estates is to get away from the city, from the noise, from the pollution and from the crimes.” But she’s hearing more construction noise than ever before, and she fears for endangered Florida panthers – and her quiet lifestyle. “I have seen more traffic going up and down my dead-end street than I have ever seen and they’re constantly building up.” Burton went to the Collier County Planning Commission meeting on Thursday to speak against the Longwater Village development. Plans right now include 2,600 homes and 90,000 square feet of office space and government buildings, all just east of the Estates in what’s known as the Rural Lands Stewardship Area (RLSA) along the Desoto Boulevard/Oil Well Road corridor. April Olson, an environmental planning specialist with The Conservancy of Southwest Florida, worries what the project will mean for the panthers by “replacing essential habitat … with homes, cars and businesses.” She says the design doesn’t fit the RLSA. “All of these developments that come forward are supposed to be walkable, they’re supposed to be self-sufficient, they’re supposed to planned smart growth.” But developer Collier Enterprises says the Village will encourage biking and walking, and include services and goods for all in the area to enjoy. Burton doesn’t buy it. “Our property should not be destroyed for the rights of the developer.” The Collier County Planning Commission will discuss the project in their March 4 meeting. If approved by them, it would go in front of county commissioners. Developers say the project would be finished in 12 years, if approved. Beyond Failing Fort Myers wastewater system could cause major sewage spill WINK News 2/17/21 Fort Myers leaders have learned the equipment inside the City’s wastewater system is failing, which could lead to a catastrophic sewage spill. This comes after Mayor Kevin Anderson and Fort Myers City Council were already dealing with more than $500,000 in fines due to Florida Department of Environmental Protection determining the City failed to address previous sewage spills. The mayor did not hide his feelings during a public meeting at city hall. He asked direct and pointed questions to the man in charge of the city’s public works department. The State DEP said Fort Myers was responsible for 70 different spills, many of which ended up in our waterways. “Are we OK to think that there are no pumps out there ready to go?” Anderson asked. “No. I cannot say that,” said Richard Moulton, the director of Fort Myers Public Works. Anderson and council also learned for the first time the City has paid outside company Siemens AG millions of dollars since 2016 to maintain its water system, a system now determined to be failing. “How likely are we to face a catastrophic failure at one of our plants,” Anderson asked? “In general, are we in the face of a failure because of the systems that’s installed and not being maintained properly?” “We’re in the process of replacing all these,” Moulton responded. “I understand we’re in the process, but are we at risk of a major failure at one of these plants?” Anderson asked. “I don’t know the answer to that,” Moulton said. The city engineer was asked similar questions and shared a similar response to the public works director. “Again, I will ask the members of the council, how many of you were aware that this problem even existed?” Anderson said. The answer was none. Mayor Anderson and Councilman Fred Burson have placed blame on the city manager for both problems. “There was an issue with the DEP that we needed to negotiate,” City Manager Saeed Kazemi said. “It doesn’t matter if there was an issue,” Anderson said. “I requested rightfully so a document, and I was not provided it.” At first Councilwoman Teresa Watkins Brown supported the city manager at the onset of the wastewater management issues, saying he’s not intentionally gong around the city and bursting pipes. But when she learned about the City paying a private company to maintain the water plants, she stopped. Mayor Anderson wants an independent investigation into the City’s wastewater management.

July 20, 2020 County Commissioner Penny Taylor, 3299 Tamiami Trail East, Suite 303, Naples, Florida, 34112 Via email: Penny.Taylor@colliercountyfl.gov Dear Honorable County Commissioner Taylor, I am writing with respect of the One Naples project proposed by Stock Developments to be built at the corners of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive. For over 10 years I have had a residence on Gulf Shore Drive with my husband and we have been enjoying Vanderbilt Beach for over 15 years. I am very concerned about the impacts of this proposed development on an already congested road and limited beach area. As such I am hoping you will not grant them various requested variances to the existing building regulations for their development in terms of building heights and density, set backs and green space. Doing so will harm a unique part of Naples. As such I ask you vote No to the rezoning proposed for this project. I am not sure if you have had the opportunity to enjoy the sunset on Vanderbilt beach or the pristine sand and water but it is truly a gem of an area in north Naples – one enjoyed by seasonal residents, visitors and permanent home owners who count on access to the beach for much of their recreation. However, in season and holidays the beach is “packed” particularly the public entrances where people come to use the beach. Often there is not a speck of room for a towel or chair let alone room to throw a frisbee or enjoy a beach game. This is the situation on the beach even before considering the COVID -19 pandemic (which may be only the first to come) and the recommended social distancing. I cannot imagine how the number of people who would like to access the beach particularly on weekends and holidays will be able to do so and social distance. As such adding more permanent residents or hotel guests to the beach is not a healthy idea let alone one that leaves space for the permanent Naples residents that would like to access the beach. The Proposed development at One Naples will only exacerbate the current overcrowding of the beach and the roads in this neighbourhood. Driving west on Vanderbilt Beach Road is often backed up as it is mostly a single lane road heading to the beach. More residents heading west with cars will only make this worse. The proposed development will also ruin the “casual - holiday type” feeling the current low -rise mixed use buildings on the north-east corner provide where people can come from the beach and congregate, grab a casual bite to eat or go to the store. I understand One Naples will provide more public parking but bringing more and more people to this small slice of beach is not going to be healthy for the beach and its wild life or good for the already congested road systems. Pelican Bay has taller towers than those presently on Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive and I understand the One Naples project is looking at those types of heights but Pelican Bay’s main thorough fare is 4 lanes. Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive at the beach are both single lane roads that carry an above average number of people walking (Gulf Shore with no sidewalks) and cycling. Vanderbilt Beach Road doesn’t even have proper bicycle paths all the way to the beach west of Vanderbilt Drive. More traffic is a very real safety concern to those walking, and cycling, let alone the frustrations of more traffic. Taller towers will also “shade” existing lower rise buildings to the east and north. No one buying in the neighborhood should have to foresee developers neglecting to follow existing building requirements and having their homes changed forever. Development is accepted as being likely for the area but development that does not consider the existing landscape, buildings, needs, very limited roadways and the precious environment provided by the Gulf of Mexico should be opposed. Many species of birds, turtles and water animals make the Gulf their home. More construction, more concrete, more people only continues to threaten their habitat. Let alone more people that would need to evacuate in the event of hurricanes or floods. Development will be an excellent stimulus for the economy but that will be a one time shot and can be achieved with lower rise, less dense and properly set back development that is already allowed. Approving more height, more density and more road and beach congestion will negatively impact the Vanderbilt Beach area forever. I ask you vote NO to Stock Development’s proposed project and the rezoning requested for the One Naples project. Thank you for your consideration, Jane Mowat c.c.

Dear Commissioners, I am writing to very simply let you all know that I oppose the One Naples project as currently proposed. I sat on a planning and zoning board for over a decade in another state, so I understand your difficult task to balance responsible development with local interests. One Naples, however, is not responsible development. The project is vastly over scaled for both the specific site and general location. The concentration of buildings and height of the towers is wrong for the area. You do NOT have to change zoning to fit a developer’s requests, in fact your responsibility is to the existing citizenry and the specifics of the site. I am not opposed to all development on the site, in fact a lower density and mid-rise only development that matches the scale of the surrounding neighborhoods north of Vanderbilt Beach Road, and which contains some restaurants and retail available to the public, would be an appropriate and welcome development for that site. Please vote to deny the application as it stands.

I am writing this to encourage those of you who truly care about Naples, Florida to overwhelmingly vote against Stocks One Naples project. My husband and I have owned at the Barefoot Pelican 30 years. We have enjoyed the comforts and ambiance of the beach community that is just about ready to be destroyed. It is unbelievable to me, as an individual married to a Ph.D. In biology, that anyone could even think about allowing this monstrosity if they are even remotely interested in the environment. I guess tomorrows meeting will tell us who cares and who is only interested in the almighty dollar. Brian Stock, I refuse to call him Mr. since he has no scruples, is interested in the most bang for his buck and he certainly does not care about Naples, the community, or anyone who lives here. I am sorry to see some of you agreeing with this project. I would respectfully ask each of you to be the voice of reason and vote NO on this project as it stands. Respectfully.

OCT.1, 2020 113-121.pdf EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source. Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: Thank you for meeting with us this morning. It was so refreshing to sit in on a meeting where we were listened to and not interrupted. Attached is a transcript of the Octover 1, 2020 meeting of the Planning Commission noting the important pages where the Planning Staff made their recommendations for the One Naples Development. I personally called James Sabo after the meeting and he told me that these recommendations were the result of meetings he had with Anita Jenkins, Mr. French and Mr Cohen and they had all agreed that these recommendations would bring One Naples more in conformity with the neighborhood's Overlay called the Vanderbilt Beach Overlay District. I have underlined the more important recommendations and this encouraged all of us to support the staff. Now it appears that the staff has allowed Stock to influence them, and as a result, we cannot unilaterally agree with these recommendations. As an aside that Nancy just mentioned, Stock changed their submissions in Dec. 2020 with just a letter to the County Attorney without any posting to the County web site.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Commissioner Taylor, As requested, we evaluated the setbacks that exist on Marco island along the high-rise properties. We utilized Google Earth Pro which has a sophisticated measuring application as part of the software. I have prepared the attached documents, albeit crude sketches, that show the setbacks. I’m sure they are not 100% accurate, but you would be surprised how accurate they can be and the dimensions shown are just a representative of the setbacks that exist. There are a couple of 1 story parking garages that are setback 55’ from the road, but they are across from resort areas and the actual towers range from a 265’ setback from the road to over 450’ from the road in the first area shown and range from a 70’ setback at the 1 story parking garage to 135’ setback at another parking garage. The closest a tower ever gets to the road in this section is 70’ and that is only at one property, but that tower is only 6 stories high, not 12 of 14 of 16. This is SIGNIFICANTY greater than the 15’ setback to the 3 story parking garage and 25’ setback to a high-rise tower as proposed by Stock on a much smaller site and I doubt that the County gave them $4,300,000 in land value to create those buildings or to grossly violate the existing GMP at the time. I am just surmising as I do not know the history of those properties, but a review of the plans does show that the towers are consistent in their setbacks and compatible with each other. One Naples is in no way consistent or compatible with the surrounding properties as currently designed. Please reach out to me if you have any additional questions and see the attached diagrams. I will send them in 2 emails due to their size. Thank you, George E. Marks 215-870-5543 ( c ) 1 Martha S.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Penny, Thank you for representing the citizens of Collier County. Your lone voice is deeply appreciated. My opposition to One Naples: Reasons to reconsider Dear Commissioners, First I want to thank you for your work on behalf of the citizens of Collier County. I want to voice my continued concern regarding the One Naples project. I feel it is not in line with other developments in the area. Pelican Bay development is not comparable to the Vanderbilt Beach community, as the setbacks were designed many years ago and it is one contiguous community as opposed to the beach area, which is a residential street. I do not wish to quash development, but I do want smart growth. One Naples is a bad precedent for our town. It will lead to many other developments of high density being approved, with will permanently alter the character of not just the immediate area around the project, but the whole community over time. I have always said I would never want to leave Naples when I retire, as my husband and I have built our life here in this community. However, I do not wish to live in a recreation of the towns on the east coast. People move to Naples to escape those! Why do we wish to destroy the very thing that makes people choose Naples as their home? It is not just the One Naples project by Stock that I oppose. As a Realtor in the area I have been a big supporter of Stock. For me this is nothing against just them. It is opposition to the continued waivers we hand out to developers - whether it be those building in the town or building in the expanding area out east. We can not continue this pace of growth and maintain the charming charter of our beloved Naples. Traffic gets worse each year, access to the beach by the public is made more difficult, and little by little our quality of life here slips away. I understand the tax revenue, employment, and economic stimulus concerns that are behind our need for growth. These are legitimate. However, I wish to caution against the outcome of continuing to give waivers to developers, be it for density, set backs, building height, or environmental in nature. It is changing our town and not for the better. If we continue to grow without a means to preserve what has made Naples such a special place to live, we will sow the seeds of our downfall. Those who have moved to Naples over the years have come for a reason. We have always been a special community. I oppose One Naples and the continued waivers of well established development guidelines for developers. We are not just "Saving Vanderbilt Beach" we are saving our town. I am including my previous letters that detail my reasons for opposition to One Naples for your review below. I implore you to consider your decision carefully in this matter. Respectfully, Ann Darwish REALTOR®, GRI, RSPS, SFR®, BPOR, ABR® Naples Resident since 2000 (239) 248-4965 anndarwish@me.com ............................................................................................................................................. LETTERS OF OPPOSITION TO ONE NAPLES - REASONS FOR OBJECTIONS: Subject: Opposition to One Naples - “Highest and best use” should not equate to maximum profits and high density Dear Commissioner, I am writing in opposition to One Naples. I believe Collier County is headed in the wrong direction. If we give waiver after waiver to developers, then we really have no standards! I oppose the One Naples development, even with Stock’s latest revisions and wanted to share are my thoughts. I strongly oppose Stock’s One Naples and continued exceptions for developers. Setbacks and other zoning regulations have been relaxed lately and I don’t like the results. This project is another on the list of “letting it slide” and lack of enforcement of current long time zoning regulations. For first time in 20 years of living here I am thinking I may not stay in Naples when I retire. Naples is trending in a BAD direction. I am not alone in that opinion. Just because current zoning allows it does not make it in keeping with what has been built in the area. In my mind, there is a distinction between a project that is allowed and one that would be appropriate. We can make choices that affect population density and the overall feel of our community. “Highest and best use” should not equate to maximum profits and high density for the rest of us who live in Naples. I support growth that is in keeping with our goal as a community. If growth means we become a Mini- Boca, is that what we want to be? If we resign ourselves to MONEY RULES then eventually the even “the rich” end up on the wrong side of the equation! One thing Naples teaches us: no matter how rich you are, there is always someone who has more than you. Commissioner, what happens when it comes to your neighborhood??? As the saying goes “be careful what you wish for.” Again, I strongly oppose One Naples and continued exceptions for developers. I will rely on the words of others who can express the details of the issue better than me. Please consider voting against continued waivers to our building and development codes. Be mindful of the precedent you set and the underlying message it sends to the rest of the community. Respectfully, Ann Darwish REALTOR®, GRI, RSPS, SFR®, BPOR, ABR® Naples resident since 2000 ................................................................................................................................................................. Dear Commissioner, In the coming weeks, you will be given the opportunity to do a great service to the citizens of Collier County in general and to the Pelican Bay, Vanderbilt Beach and Naples Park communities specifically. You will have the opportunity of strongly and in no uncertain terms, recommending to the Board of County Commissioners that they deny the application of Stock Development for the approval of its One Naples project at the corner of Gulfshore Drive and Vanderbilt Beach Road as it is currently proposed. Why should you take this action? I know that the corner of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulfshore Drive is currently an eyesore, and I know that it needs to be redeveloped. Stock may be a good choice as the developer, but his current plan is a significant overreach. The current design which includes a 700-foot long 35-foot high wall 15-feet off his property line and a mere 35-feet from edge of the pavement along the length of Gulfshore and VBR, no matter what the planting in front of it, is not in the public interest. It will be a monstrosity for decades to come. And the towers, two 208-foot high structures as close as 25 feet to the property line will dominate the landscape, dwarfing the surrounding buildings. Save Vanderbilt Beach Inc has provided the County Planning Staff with its recommendations as to how One Naples might be redesigned to be neighborhood compatible. These recommendations address building height, density of residential units, setbacks, open space and more. Latitude is provided to Stock, giving the development flexibility vis-à-vis the existing C-3 zoning restrictions. I encourage you to request that the staff provide you with the Cover Letter and the Compatibility Standards document provided by Greg Stuart Associates, Planners to the County planning staff. Can I count on you to recommend denying his current design? Ask him to review the documents referred to above. You need not wait until the formal meeting. A call from you today indicating that you can’t vote for today’s design, but that you would fully support a project more sensitive to neighborhood wishes and compatibility would go a long way to bringing Stock back to the table It’s not too late. Stock is asking the county to donate nearly .8 acres to him in the form of the vacation of various roadways that run throughout his property. What is he giving in return? A project not in the public interest, adding density, traffic, safety concerns, and additional beach usage to an area already overburdened. One more thing. At the Neighborhood Information Meeting and elsewhere, Stock has always stated that if the zoning is not approved, Stock would market the property to a commercial developer who could build a Costco or a gas station there. That’s just not a real possibility. No such business would desire to be at that location. Stock recognizes that as well but thinks that a hotelier might have an interest. Remember, hotels are not approved in the existing C-3 zoning. To protect his investment, however, and to give himself more flexibility, Stock is asking that a hotel use be part of his new zoning. Not only that, but Stock has not qualified that request in any way. There have been no site plans showing a hotel. There are no elevation drawings of a hotel. There is no way to know if the ballroom will hold 200 or 700, or even if there will be one. There is no mention of restaurants serving large Sunday brunches. Nothing. Only that it can have up to 172 rooms. This is not acceptable. Do the right thing, and recommend that the County Commissioners deny the project in its current form. Protect the public interest. Thank you. Ann Darwish ................................................................................................................................................ My Additional Signed Letter and agreement with the opposition letter below. Dear Commssioner, As a Collier County Commissioner, I hope you are listening to the growing level of concern among North Naples residents opposed to the One Naples project, as proposed. What is the value of planning when you can arbitrarily change zoning and request variances that conflict with safety, rights and common sense? The hundreds of walkers from Naples Park, Beachwalk, Pavilion, etc. with chairs on their backs will wonder what happened, when people, not previously zoned, can simply cross the street to take their place at Vanderbilt Beach. One Naples will add more than 500 vehicles that will be forced to use local streets not built for traffic. Vanderbilt Beach Road east of 41 is being widened to six lanes and is being extended further east to the proposed 360,000 vehicle Rural Lands Service Area (RLSA) while west of 41 the two lanes can’t be widened. Please note that Emergency Services must pass through Vanderbilt Beach Road from Hammock Oak Drive. Furthermore, the county has built an expensive four-mile bike path, including bridges, north of Bluebill Avenue to Bonita Springs and you must use Vanderbilt Drive to access. Please consider these facts before deciding. Thank you.

For numerous reasons this project is wrong for Vanderbilt Beach and for Collier County. 1. It is wrong to allow major variances to dozens of regulations in the County Growth Plan, County Zoning Code and Coastal Management Guidelines. 2. It is wrong for the commissioners to give land valued at more than $4,000,000 to the developer. 3. It is wrong for the commissioners to set future precedent by voting to approve a project with so many major variances. 4. It is wrong for the commissioners to ignore the will of their tax-paying constituents. It would be right for the developer to come back with a plan that addresses the concerns listed above.

Dear Commissioner Solis, As a resident on Gulf Shore drive for over ten years, I have to say I now vigorously oppose the proposed plan of the One Naples Project. Initially, I was not completely opposed as I saw some appealing parts to improving the area under discussion. I walk past that area daily as part of my exercise routine and am very aware that some improvements would be an advantage. Nothing in this project has been scaled to simply improve the area. It is clear that the project is motivated by profit and not really the best interest of the neighborhood. This past season has given me a completely new viewpoint of the what could happen with overcrowding. One only needed to be there this past winter when the Co-Vid restrictions were loosened on the beaches and they were mobbed with people and traffic. I realize that it was eventually determined that many members of those crowds were folks who came from the East Coast, however it was a dramatic example of what could happen if the concentration of residences and commercial business and traffic were increased to an usustainable level and of the damage that could be done to our neighborhood. Traffic was impossible! Pedestrians were rampant on the streets---interfering with vehicular traffic and likewise vehicles unfamiliar with the pedestrian nature of Gulf Shore Drive did not operate in a safe way or respect the many crossing areas on the streets. We daily picked up trash, beach chairs, umbrellas, clothing, that was abandoned on the beaches—our yards. Visitors chose not to wait in lines for the restroom facilities that are provided and were frequently found in our yards urinating in our landscaping and private areas. We watched people disrobe and change from their swimsuits into street clothing on the beach as they apparently did not want to wait for room in the restrooms. We have invested millions into our properties and had to watch this sort of behavior daily. The level of crowds on the beaches was unlike anything that I have seen since living on Vanderbilt beach. And I will add that it didn’t stop after the restrictions were re-imposed. The crowds did lessen slightly, but the beaches were taxed way beyond the ability of the current facilities to handle the crowds and infrastructure. I honestly do not see how anyone can believe that the neighborhood can support this type of development. It will change our neighborhood for the worse permanently---- forever! What is the value of planning when you can arbitrarily change zoning andrequest variances that conflict with safety, rights and common sense? Thehundreds of walkers from Naples Park, Beachwalk, Pavilion, etc. with chairson their backs will wonder what happened, when people, not previously zoned,can simply cross the street to take their place at Vanderbilt Beach.

Dear Commissioner Sanders, , I have lived in Naples Park for 5 years and have actively followed the Stock Development proposal since I attended the Ritz Carlton event in May 2017. Since then I have read the application components submitted to the county, followed comments by county planning staff, read the county planning staff reports, attended the NIM, met with Brian Stock personally as President of Naples Park Area Association three times, and attended all three days of hearings with the Planning Commission. I have learned alot about the development application process as a result of this interaction and my concern for the meaning of the Growth Management Plan continues to escalate. I acknowledge Stock Development altered their original plan but the remaining application remains inappropriate. I strongly object to changing the Growth Management Plan simply to satisfy the desires of one developer when it will have a significant negative impact to the nature of a shared resource in the county in order to reach a certain desired Return on Investment. When Stock bought the property he knew the zoning and its requirements. The property can be nicely developed in many ways, including offering his specialty---high end housing---but at a substantially reduced density., He made clear in our discussions that he could not reduce the density further below the current application. If the ROI is insufficient when accomplished within the current Growth Management Plan and zoning constraints, it is not the problem of the neighbors or the residents of the county to change the Growth Management Plan to meet the ROI needs of the developer. If the Board of Commissioners insists on allowing a change to the Growth Management plan, then it is imperative to follow the guidance of the county planning staff and require the developer to meet all the conditions they set forward in their report so that the impact of the project is somewhat mitigated. If we choose to ignore county planning staff and the clearly stated opinions of a large number of county residents I fear the following: 1) The One Naples towers will quickly become the SHORTEST towers in the neighborhood as current buildings are "refreshed". 2) The One Naples development will stall mid-stream when sales don't develop as planned--- the pool area and workout area seem insufficient to attract high-end buyers who will not be interested in sharing the beach with the current crowds nor deal with the current level of traffic in the area. We will end up with a larger problem at that site than we have now. 3) The Growth Management Plan will be seen as something that is readily gutted and has little meaning. The growth of Collier County will be unbridled and make the county less desirable for current and future residents and businesses. Thank you for reading my input and considering it as you deliberate this question.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear County Commissioners: One Naples will negatively affect the heavily congested Vanderbilt Beach collector roadway, already having difficulty handling its existing peak hour traffic. Steps from the public beach, it will only serve to exasperate existing road-pedestrian safety issues with overpowering structures, short setbacks, vacation of right of ways, less parking and certainly less compatibility with the immediate surrounding public environment. Stock Development's revised petition with 2 – 16 story towers is still incompatible with the local environment. County staff do not agree that a ‘reduced’ tower height of 208 ft is justified and in keeping with neighboring structures. Please listen to your County staff! Stock fails to acknowledge that they are encroaching on setbacks, sidewalks, right of ways, and don't compare at all to other hotels in the area. Nor are the other hotels so close to the pavement or at the entrance to the public beach! We need you, as our elected Commissioners to be ‘for the people’ and part of the solution. Every decision has consequences that affect the future of Naples for decades to come. Granting deviations will only allow future developers to come along and argue their project is similar to what the Commissioners allowed and everyone can get waivers of right of ways and setbacks. Please! This project doesn't belong right across from our parking garage and scarce access for the residents to the beach! Better plans with less density need to be forthcoming. Thank you for thinking of the residents of Naples, our access to enjoying activities at Vanderbilt Beach, and what is best for Naples.

McDaniel, Jr. Mr. Burt L. Saunders Mr. Rick LoCastro It has been brought to the attention of many that one of the condo associations most affected by the One Naples project has received a tentative proposal from Stock Development offering several monetary "incentives" to the condo association if they agree to drop their opposition to the One Naples project. They must also agree to speak publicly in favor of One Naples, and write a supporting letter to the Board of Collier County Commissioners on Stock's behalf. The package is very significant, estimated to be between $300,000 - $400,000. This is a very sad and disturbing development. If this is true, it poses a significant conflict of interest because the motivation of such a condo association would not necessarily be what is in the best interest of the community, but rather what is in the best financial interest of the association. If true, paying for such endorsement may well violate the Florida Statute, which is never ok and should never be condoned. If the Commissioners are aware of this does it matter that hearing from such persons regarding this issue is actually not an arms length transaction due to their personal enrichment? Further, it is proof to me that Stock Development is not really the "good neighbor," as they allege. Therefore, I sincerely hope that you to require that anyone testifying in writing or in person at the One Naples March Board of County Commissioners meeting disclose whether they, or the community association in which they live, have received any compensation or other "incentives" from Stock Development, its affiliates or representatives and if so, the amount of such compensation. While any association has a right to voice its opinion on the project, such disclosure would give full transparency to a significant motivating factor.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Decision-makers of Collier County, We, like so many residents of North Naples, are anxious and very concerned about the future of our neighborhood. The decisions you will soon make about One Naples and the Vanderbilt Beach neighborhood could negatively affect the happiness and quality of life for thousands of people who, like us, trusted Collier County and invested our hard-earned money to purchase a home here in North Naples. We realize Stock can afford very powerful attorneys who are familiar with arguing against regular people like us. However, One Naples should not be built at the expense of area residents and we hope you will take the time to read our email below. These challenging decisions about the future of this North Naples area will take you just minutes to vote, but the resulting aftermath will be forever. Sincerely yours, Gale Morgan and Julie Wyman North Naples Residents (1) Planning commissioner Robert Klucik said he didn’t understand why the opposition suggested the county cap the height of One Naples at 12 stories when so many nearby buildings are taller, including the Ritz-Carlton across the street. Commissioner Klucik's question is exactly the reason Brian Stock makes a point to compare his skyscrapers to the Ritz-Carlton and other Pelican Bay buildings; he hopes Collier County will start to believe it is a fair comparison -- it is not. Stock now is comparing buildings in 'foot heights' -- Ritz-Carlton @ 215 feet across the street in the Pelican Bay Community versus his two skyscrapers @ 208 feet (each) in the Vanderbilt Beach neighborhood. Comparing Stock's two, 208 feet skyscrapers to Pelican Bay's Ritz-Carlton Hotel at 215 feet across the street is not a viable comparison -- these two totally independent developments/communities are not comparable as they are totally unrelated because they are so DIFFERENT! The Ritz-Carlton Hotel is part of the Pelican Bay Community* and located on the other side of Vanderbilt Beach Road from the One Naples site. All the nearby Pelican Bay buildings have land mass around them and access to a private beach, including the Ritz. As a matter of fact, it takes a bit of a 'drive up a hill' to get to the Ritz-Carlton. With One Naples there will be no 'drive' as it would be just feet from Vanderbilt Beach Road. Stock perpetuates this 'misleading foot height comparison of Pelican Bay buildings' hoping Collier County will believe it is a viable argument and award him with his two 16 story towers. In truth, the 'foot height' comparisons should be compared to the buildings on the same side of the street and in the same neighborhood as One Naples. At 208 feet the two One Naples skyscrapers would be way taller than ALL nearby buildings on the same side of Vanderbilt Beach Road and in the same neighborhood. One Naples is not part of the Pelican Bay Community. Further, instead of comparing just 'feet height' Collier County should further investigate and compare 'feet height and surrounding acreage' and see what happens. ONE NAPLES: With barely 6-acres upon which to build his entire development, Stock must squeeze together two, 208 foot skyscrapers with little 'open air space' between them plus several other buildings -- surrounded by asphalt and concrete. No private beach access like many nearby buildings. PELICAN BAY: The Ritz and other Pelican Bay buildings have large, healthful 'open air spaces' between them and are surrounded by acres and acres of walking trails, lakes, magnificent mangroves, manicured lawns, trees and flowers, tennis courts and their own private beaches. See pictures. One cannot in good conscience compare these two totally different developments. (2) Planning commissioner David Fry asked how previous *zoning decisions in the area should factor into this one. *The Pelican Bay Community was developed with an eye to conservation preservation as well as protection of the environment in its design. Today the Pelican Bay Foundation maintains (in perpetuity) 88 acres of parks and recreation areas offering an oasis of lakes, kayaking, preserved mangroves, nature-laden paths and trails reminiscent of days gone by. So you see, one cannot honestly compare these two totally different developments. If Stock gets what he wants from Collier county, One Naples would be bursting at the seams with buildings and have no acreage set aside for conservation and the environment. One Naples should be developed consistent with the same restrictions such as height restrictions as nearby neighborhood buildings. Why did Pelican Bay develop according to the Land Development Code and Stock doesn't? Even the Ritz-Carlton is a designated Florida Green Lodging property and has its own private beach access as well as other green amenities. (3) Planning commissioners questioned some of Stuart’s arguments, statements and suggestions, including his criticisms of the traffic analysis done by Stock’s independent expert, which wasn’t challenged by county staff . The analysis shows the project will improve traffic flow on Vanderbilt Beach Road and in the surrounding neighborhood and won’t lead to failing roads or demand for new road capacity. Already there are safety concerns on crowded Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulfshore Drive and the traffic problem isn't just cars lined up to enter the beach garage.... regular traffic of cars and trucks, garbage trucks and emergency vehicles, etc., all sharing the road with joggers, bladers, bikers, baby carriages, etc. How will hundreds of additional cars of One Naples owners, guests, delivery trucks, employees, etc., improve traffic?? Stock's independent expert failed to check out the cars already cutting through Pelican Bay to avoid Vanderbilt Beach Road and One Naples isn't even built. The roads of Pelican Bay must not become access arteries for One Naples. Collier County must not allow Naples' coveted public Vanderbilt Beach to become a private beach for the residents and guests of Stock's high rise condos. How many One Naples residents and friends, with no beach access of their own, will take the time to be 'transported' to another beach when they can just walk across the street to Vanderbilt Beach -- The Peoples' Beach? This valuable Naples public beach 'amenity' is already often overcrowded; fights and emergencies happen. This serious potential beach problem must be avoided -- we can't make more beach space! Maybe 'beach access' is the reason this property was never intended to be a high density residential location. Charming neighborhood Village: It is hard to believe a low density residential and commercial 'Village' similar to Bay Front would bring more traffic than a monster One Naples especially if you consider such a development would be exciting, compliment Vanderbilt Beach and be within walking and biking distance for nearby residents and hotel guests as well as provide some essential services and restaurants and shops to the immediate area. Thank you so very much for reading and, hopefully, consider some of the issues we have discussed!!

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. One thing is perfectly clear, Collier County planning regulations mean absolutely nothing to the Stock Development plan. Collier County Planning Regulations are just something to abuse. With every single planning target, Stock Development leap frogs beyond “that number to suit their needs”; whether “building density”, “building heights”, “setbacks”, “traffic counts”; the numbers are set by the Planning Commission and ignored by Stock Development. We have lived in the Beachwalk Community for over 15 years. Even without Naples One in the picture, it is often extremely difficult to make a left turn out of Beachwalk, due to the steady line of traffic heading to Vanderbilt Beach, on Vanderbilt Beach Road. Now Stock wants to add 172 condominium units to the traffic mix. Don’t want to even think about it. There comes a time to say enough is enough. IF One Naples is given the “go ahead” from the Collier County Commissioners, then that building becomes the compatibility target for the next one — bigger and better than Naples One. Compassion for all current property owners, in and around Vanderbilt Beach, will prayerfully speak to the hearts and minds of the Collier County Commissioners as they prepare to vote on Monday, March 1. We ask the Commissioners to deny Stock Development the opportunity to amend the County’s Growth Management Plan that they are seeking. If the Commissioners could simply “place themselves” in an existing home, villa, condo, or community, as existing property owners that currently make up the Vanderbilt Beach area, there would be no doubt that they would vote to deny. Bigger is not always better. In this case, bigger is much worse! Thank you for listening.

But first: SAVE THE DATE: Coffee with The Commissioner: Last month's first-ever evening Coffee was a great success -- it was nice to see so many unfamiliar faces, and several people thanked me afterward for holding the event at a time they could attend. I will plan to hold more events in the evening, but for the next Coffee on April 8 we'll go back to the morning. I hope you'll come and get updated on important happenings in our community. Mark your calendar now and watch for registration later in March. We had a good crowd at the tour of the Emergency Operations Center / 911 Call Center. I think everyone learned a lot, and the following email is a good example of the feedback we received: "Thanks again - our facilities and employees are wonderful! I am so glad to see a commitment to excellence. Keep up the good work!" Lots of good information below -- recent BCC decisions concerning North Naples, updates on Veterans Parkway, some info about One Naples (all the way at the bottom for those who want to go straight there). Thanks as always for taking the time to participate in local government by reading and sharing these updates. Let me know if you have any questions, and I'll hope to see you in April! Coffee with The Commissioner 4-8-20 Veterans Parkway Extension image Veterans Memorial Parkway Extension Update I’ve gotten a lot of questions lately about the Veterans Memorial Parkway Extension. As they hear talk about the new high school, people are asking when the road construction will begin. Here’s a bit of a recap and an update: The Parkway Extension has been on the County’s long-term plans for a while, but with the School Board’s decision to open the new high school in Fall 2023, our plans have been accelerated. To facilitate construction of the school, County staff has decided to split the project into two phases/contracts: Phase I: Livingston to the new high school; and Phase II: New high school to Old 41. It is anticipated the road will have sidewalks on both sides, with bike lanes and 2 travel lanes in each direction. Currently, the County’s Environmental Consultants are doing the permitting work for the roadway, while the School Board is in their design process. We submitted a permit request to the US Army Corps of Engineers last fall, and our Environmental Resource Permit applications to the South Florida Water Management District earlier this month. These agencies have their own timelines, and we expect their reviews to take several months. The School Board hopes to begin construction sometime in the summer of 2021, and we hope to be able to provide them at least temporary access to the site by then. Along the way, as with most roadway projects, there will be 3 Public Information Meetings: one each at the 30% design plan, at 60%, and at construction kick- off. None of those are yet planned; we expect the first, at 30%, to be sometime early in 2021. So currently, our goals are first public meeting in winter of 2021, temporary access for construction later that year, and Phase 1 completion by the start of the school year in 2023. We will keep you posted on all the meetings and progress on the construction through this newsletter. We had some very interestiong discussions at the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) meetings in February. A few were particularly important to our little part of Collier County, so I'm happy to share some updates on them below. Click on the accompanying images if you're interested in watching the Board's discussion on that topic from our video archives. I was very pleased to make the motion to approve the design contract for this expansion project. Since it is expansion of an existing road, we don’t have the same level of permitting issues as on the Veterans extension discussed above, so our timelines are a bit more solid. The 1.8 mile project to widen this roadway from four to six lanes will include: Maintaining existing sidewalks and providing bike lanes; Improved roadway intersections at Strada Place and Goodlette Frank Road; Improved drainage throughout the project area. Design work will begin immediately; here’s the anticipated schedule for the rest of the project: Design Complete: September 2021 Start Construction: March 2022 Construction Complete: May 2023 This design phase will cost just over $1 million; the total estimated construction cost for the whole project is approximately $13 million. I know that landscaping on this stretch of Vanderbilt is a high priority for many nearby residents. Completion of this project will make it eligible for the landscaping program, and I am confident that we will work out the growing pains on the maintenance costs in the meantime. pump station graph One of the biggest concerns I heard in the aftermath of Hurricane Irma had to do with the failures in our wastewater pump station emergency plans. How it was intended to work (and how it has always worked in the past), was for nearby unaffected counties and out-of-town contractors to come and pump out the stations as needed until power could be restored. Irma, however, was a black swan – an extremely rare, unforeseen event with severe impacts. Never before had one storm affected the entire state at one time (and right on the heels of another devastating storm in a nearby state). All those out-of-town contractors had contracts with multiple counties and couldn’t service them all. And we were more impacted than ever before: 841 of our 846 pump stations lost power, and it stayed out for longer than anticipated. The important thing is that we learned from that experience, and we are now better prepared than ever, as the graph above shows. I recommend you watch the brief discussion at the Board meeting, HERE or by clicking the image above. But the short version is that we’ve received a grant from the state Department of Emergency Management to equip an additional 53 pump stations with back-up power, which will result in more than double the number we had going into Irma. Combined with the portable generators and our additional pump-out trucks which can be deployed where needed, we are in good shape for the inevitable next storm. Clam Pass Park Boardwalk Replacement & Restroom Expansion Now that the idea of a parking garage at Clam Pass has been firmly rejected, we have shifted to maintaining the beautiful park. After a beach renourishment project at the end of last year, we are now focusing on the park’s infrastructure. The 3000-foot long boardwalk has deck boards that are over 25 years old and nearing the end of their useful life. For quality and longevity, we will replace all the decking and handrails with Ipe lumber. This hardwood is extremely dense and durable and should stand up to the daily foot and vehicle traffic for decades. In addition, the existing restroom facilities are not ADA compliant, and are wholly inadequate for the park’s needs in season. This expansion will bring the existing structure into ADA compliance and quadruple the number of facilities. The Boardwalk Deck Replacement portion of the project will be scheduled in the off-season. And all these projects – the beach renourishment, new deck and new restroom facilities – will be paid for by tourist tax dollars. For those interested in taking a deeper dive, the BCC meets on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of (almost) every month beginning at 9am in the BCC chambers (marked 'County Admin' on THIS map); agendas and back-up materials will be available on the preceding Thursday HERE. You are always welcome to attend, or to watch live on either your cable channel 97/98 or online HERE. Shortly following the meetings, videos will be available to watch HERE. I think most of the neighboring residents are aware of the upcoming Neighborhood Information Meeting (NIM) for the One Naples proposal. There is, however, a new location (and most of you are probably aware of that, as well; this is just in case). The NIM was moved both because people were complaining that the prior location was too far from the neighborhood, and because there probably wouldn't have been enough room for all who wish to attend. Our statute requires all property owners within a certain distance of the proposed rezoning to be notified -- all those neighbors will have received the updated location, but interest extends well beyond those communities. If you know anyone interested in this NIM -- and I encourage anyone with questions or concerns to attend -- please share the information about the updated location with them. UPDATED VERSION: Many readers found the information below to be helpful, and many new subscribers have asked to receive it, so I have updated it and reprinted it below. I have heard from many of you about the proposed One Naples project at Vanderbilt Beach and Gulfshore, asking about a timeline for this project. (Most of you mention you’ve visited the updated OneNaples.com website, so you’ve seen their description of the proposed development and I won’t bother to repeat that. If you haven't, the website has lots of information and renderings to view.) Here's what I can tell you: After months of inactivity, this proposal was re- submitted at the end of October. Currently the application is being reviewed by staff. The first Review Letter, listing areas where staff has further questions or what items might be deficient, was sent out at the end of November. The developer reviewed staff’s questions and concerns and re-submitted a complete new application at the end of January. This second application is now being reviewed by staff. Most applications go through this cycle several times before they are deemed complete and scheduled for public hearings. So there is no timeline yet to share. As you probably know, our Land Development Code requires the developer to hold a Neighborhood Information Meeting (NIM); the NIM must be held at least 15 days before the Planning Commission hearing, but could be held anytime between staff's first review and then. As mentioned above, that meeting will happen next week. You can read the application and review letters in the public portal for our Growth Management Division HERE. Click on “Status and Fees” under the “Planning Department.” Once you prove you’re a human, you can search for One Naples or use the applications numbers. The application number for the PUD is 20190000697, and for the Small Scale Growth Management Plan Amendment it is 20190000696. Most of the information seems to be under the PUD application number. You will be able to follow along through the entire process at this site. As with most rezones, there will be numerous revisions to the application requested by staff, the public, and the Collier County Planning Commission. It has always been my practice not to comment on an application until after the staff has reviewed it, the NIM has occurred, and the Planning Commission has vetted the application in a public hearing. Many times, especially on large rezones, significant changes are made during that process. I want to see what it is that the Commissioners will be asked to consider before making comments. Otherwise, I could be commenting on something that won't even be included in the final proposal. Having said that, there are significant issues that the applicant will need to adequately address -- traffic concerns, density, building heights, etc. I anticipate that many people will attend and participate in the NIM and the Planning Commission meeting and I encourage all interested parties to do so. I will be watching the process closely. Did a friend send you this email?Click HERE to subscribe! Copyright © 2020 Andy Solis, District 2 County Commissioner, All rights reserved.

Commissioners....pls add my name to the long list of collier voters and taxpayers strongly against the proposed one Naples development. I won't bore you with a repeat of many of the comments you have seen and hopefully heard. I don't understand why you would consider giving stock a financial gift. He paid a fair price for the properties with existing zoning and restrictions. To relax them would provide him with a financial gift of 50 million dollars to pick a number. And what do the good folks of collier county get.??...nothing. Many think it is arrogant to use the name one Naples ....when the property is not in Naples. What is wrong with one collier or one Vanderbilt or one estero or one Miami? My guess is he is selling the name Naples which he does not have. Is this false and deceptive marketing? The full page ads he is running reflect his arrogance. He doesn't have anything to sell until you make him his 50 million dollar gift. The local paper had a maxim to the effect that all that is required for evil..aka one Naples ...to prevail is for good men and women to do nothing to stop it. Maybe you have seen the signs....to the effect ...respect Naples and collier county and the taxpayers and voters....you came her from there because you didn't like there, and now you want to change here to be like there. We are not realist, phobic or anti whatever-you-are, we simply like here the way it is and most of us actually came here because it is not like there, wherever there was. You are welcome here, but please stop trying to make here like there.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner, When the ONE NAPLES project was initially presented, it seemed like the project was a little too massive for the small area where it would go. After the developer changes were presented, it seemed to be a reasonable compromise and as a result, I thought that the project should go forward. This seems very typical in the developer world where they give up a little something to get community approval. However, after learning more about how the scope of the project is not even close to complying with County regulations, I have changed my opinion to a emphatic NO. The height of the buildings is not even close to what is “approvable” for this area. The setbacks totally ignore the guidelines standards. To make comparisons to Pelican Bay is not a fair comparison in my opinion. Perhaps the developer comment should be that these buildings are shorter than the skyscrapers of New York City. Pelican Bay, although nearby, is a large parcel of land that is in the 4 to 5,000 acre range. Not a good comparison. Please side with the people who live here now and will continue to live here and vote NO on the ONE NAPLES item. Thank you for your consideration.

The One Naples wall proposed by Stock is the same height, only it extends to the corner of Vanderbilt Beach Road and wraps around the corner onto Gulfshore Drive. No amount of "lush, tropical landscaping" promised by Stock will hide a wall of this magnitude. Neither will it compliment the neighborhood. And the setback here is the same setback proposed by Stock. In real life, look how close it is to the sidewalk! These photos were taken today at the Save Vanderbilt Beach Rally at 12 noon. Stock is asking the Commissioners to break the law. One Naples proposal constitutes unlawful Spot Zoning. I do not live in your district, but subscribe to your newsletter.

Dear Commissioner Taylor, Dear Commissioner Solis: As the President of Vanderbilt Yacht & Racquet Club at 11030 Gulfshore Drive, I am writing you today to express my opposition to the Stock Development One Naples as it is currently proposed. I spent three full days listening to the presentations. I was encouraged that the Planning Commission was unable to recommend approval, not only of the current Stock plan, but also of a alternate version that barely reduced the out of scale tower heights and still allowed inadequate setbacks. I was one of the more than eighty people who spoke up against the project at the Planning Commission and one of the 1,100 members of Save Vanderbilt Beach. I represent our condo association when I say that this project is too massive and too tall for this corner. There is no benefit to current residents of the neighborhood. The owners in my building are counting on me to make sure their voices are heard. We are not opposed to reasonable development. In the 30+ years since VYRC was built, we have seen many fine developments on our street. This one is not in keeping with the others. Ultimately, we want you to approve a project with the type of conditions that your own Planning Staff proposed. They are reasonable and will result in a project that is compatible with and complementary to the neighborhood.

As our commissioner, we urge you to keep an open mind and carefully weigh the import of a project of such immense, incongruous and ultimately inappropriate size and proportion that it will change the coastal balance of Collier county and set an ominous precedent for the future of Vanderbilt Beach and every other coastal area in Collier County. We urge you to see past the cosmetic enhancements and enticing amenities that Stock Development will present in order to sweeten the deal for your vote in their favor. Past experience has proven that these promises always favor the developer, not the community at large. Please do not allow yourself to be swayed by these tactics and instead, vote in favor of our future without further exploitation.

Stock cobbled together the property around Vanderbilt beach, knowing the current C-3 zoning, with the realization that it was a non-starter by their own admission, with the expectation that they could bulldoze their legacy on that little corner. One Naples project advances; neighborhood meeting planned https://www.naplesnews.com/story/money/business/local/2020/03/02/one-naples-moving-ahead- neighborhood-meeting-planned-tuesday/4928571002/ "His team, he said, hasn't even attempted to draw up plans for a purely, or mostly commercial project." Stock claims to want the best for Naples, but their overreaching plan is certainly not in the best interests of Collier County, including Naples Park and Vanderbilt beach, which I have been a part of for over 20 years. Trying to shoe horn this project into a 5.4 acre site is a nightmare for neighbors like us, including density (44 units vs 16 per acre), building height (235 ft vs 70), marina access, public parking, traffic, emergency response, beach access, environmental impact, set backs (starting at 10ft to 0), coastal high hazards, traffic bypass and quality of life. In the end, all we have are commissioners *like you* who are willing to do the right thing, to protect folks like us who have worked their whole life to experience something as wondrous as this (and to pass on to our children). To this end, I simply ask that you enforce the current zoning or make a case that changing it would benefit the larger community and not someone else's pocket/legacy. And yes, I went to the recent NIM @ St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church(3/2/2020), where Stock's presentation focused on fluff, landscaping and parking garage tech, which seemed more akin to a Real Estate Sales pitch, which the folks in the room weren't buying. And yes, tech won't magically expand the current garage capacity and only annoy those who decide to rip through my Naples Park neighborhood. Regardless of the traffic, folks still need a place to park when the garage is full and a place to rest themselves on the ever restricted public beach (thanks to neighbors like the Ritz) :) In a nutshell, one needs to simply "Support Responsible Development", which seems like a reach here....

Dear Commissioner I strongly oppose the vote to approve One Naples with any zoning and land use variances. A very large building can still be built within the existing zoning laws. The benefits they outline for variances are invalid and do not benefit and improve the existing community around them. I and others do not ask you to create new zoning laws, we ask you to simply enforce the ones we have today. It is critical to set the precedent that Naples can not be bought or twisted into zoning variances while the current zoning allows for large improvements to the property.

Dear Sirs, This email serves as a another attempt to have you vote NO and stop the One Naples development!! You have heard testimony in person at the board meetings and I’m sure have received many other emails and phone calls regarding this project. There is no one in this community, who actually lives in the area, that wants this development to take place. The infrastructure near Vanderbilt Beach will not support such a development. There are many times even now that the beach area is overcrowded and traffic in the area is unsafe. Adding another 240 + condominiums with the One Naples project well only overburden an already stressed area. Please hear of the will of the people, who’s live, work and pay taxes in Collier county and do not let this development take place!!

February 27, 2021 Dear Collier County Commissioners, First of all, I appreciate your dedicated service and willingness to represent the interests of the many residents that call Naples their home. Most of us settled in Naples to avoid the overdevelopment and over population found in other Florida cities where it appears corporate greed prevails over the interests of the residents. Naples is more laid back, you can hike through the mangroves, enjoy the feeling of a small town atmosphere and avoid the chaos of many other Florida locations. As a general observation, developers are solely motivated by the financials of a deal and will moderate their position to the least extent possible, and only to get the deal approved. Their marketing programs remind me of drug commercials where people are holding hands and walking in the park, but the fine print lists 50 side effects that could cause death or serious bodily injury – the only difference is that the developer’s marketing fails to point out all the downside of the overdevelopment. I have been an advisor to and member on many Board of Directors for companies in Europe, Canada and the United States. I expect your attorneys have advised you of your fiduciary responsibility regarding avoidance of further overcrowding of Vanderbilt Beach, environmental issues, the significant increase in traffic, the added safety and evacuation risks and other adverse factors which would materially reduce property value for a majority of homeowners in this area – and the consequences of a breach with respect to potential impact on your D&O and general liability insurance coverage . Thanks in advance for killing the One Naples Development project – everyone knows it will be a disaster for our community and there is no legitimate justification for moving forward. You were elected/appointed to your positions to represent the interests of the residents – not developers. We are all counting on you to do the right thing. Appreciate you taking the time to read this, and consider my thoughts.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: On March 1 you and your fellow Commissioners will be hearing Stock Development’s application for One Naples. I am writing you today to express my strong opposition to the development as Stock has proposed it. I know full well that this development is not in our District, and that Commissioners generally tend to vote with the Commissioner in whose District the project lies. But, in this case I ask you to act independently. Residents of Commissioner Solis’ District have overwhelmingly shown their opposition. I know that you are aware of that as I know that you have received hundreds of emails telling you so. I believe that Commissioner Solis intends to vote in support of the Stock amendment to the Growth Management Plan. His reason for doing so is flawed. He feels that the neighborhood is not capable of understanding the nuances of the matter before you, and that he, alone, knows what is good for his District. When he tells people, “Be careful what you wish for.” he is saying that the residents of the affected neighborhood don’t know what they are asking. assure you that they do understand the ramifications of asking that Stock respect the existing C-3 zoning. One Naples is not simply a District 2 issue. Its approval would send a message that it’s “business as usual,” and that the “Miamification” of Collier County will continue. That must stop! I am asking you to vote to deny Stock’s proposed amendment to the Growth Management Plan I along with hundreds of others will be there on March 1st to support you in making the right decision. __________________________ -------------------------- From:info@savevanderbiltbeach.com To:TaylorPenny Subject:One Naples Hearings Date:Friday, June 19, 2020 12:53:22 PM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source. Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: I am writing you today in my position as President of the Florida 501c3 non-profit, Save Vanderbilt Beach Inc out of a concern both for the health of citizens of Collier County and for the constitutional rights of these same citizens to enter sworn testimony at public meetings held by Collier County. Specifically, I am focused on yet-to-be scheduled hearings to be held by the Planning Commission and Board of County Commissioners regarding the application being made by Stock Development for the rezoning of the 5.42 acre tract at the northeast corner of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulfshore Drive commonly known as the One Naples project. The County planning staff will soon issue their report to the Planning Commission regarding the development, and the Planning Commission will soon be scheduling its public hearing. On March 3, before COVID19 was widely understood and before the state’s safer at home rules took effect, Stock Development held its required Neighborhood Information Meeting, and Save Vanderbilt Beach Inc was able to motivate more than 400 County residents attended to express their opposition to the One Naples development. Since then the number of people who have registered with us, and who oppose the development in its current form, has grown from 650 to more than 1,000 Hundreds of citizens wish to take an active role in their local government by attending the planning commission and county commission public hearings and making their opposition to One Naples known. It is likely that at least 500 people, and possibly more, will wish to participate. We are concerned about creating an unhealthy super-spreader event in Collier County by holding an in-person quasi-judicial zoning and legislative plan amendment hearing that will be attended by many hundreds of individuals. Today’s headline in the Naples Daily News read “Fla. Shatters record with 3,207 virus cases” Johns Hopkins reports that Florida cases have grown from 55,424 at the end of May to 75,565 by June 15. Covid19 cases are now being contact-traced to events that are even smaller than this public hearing. There is no safe way that hundreds of people can be accommodated with proper social distancing and be given their constitutional right to be heard. Virtual appearances are not appropriate for those who have supporting physical presentations and no social media platform is designed that will give many hundreds of people a fair chance to be heard and seen. Because of these realities, we ask that the upcoming hearings relating to the Stock application be postponed indefinitely until such time as it is possible to safely hear from all those with opinions about the project. Thank you for your consideration.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor , I have lived in Naples Park for 5 years and have actively followed the Stock Development proposal since I attended the Ritz Carlton event in May 2017. Since then I have read the application components submitted to the county, followed comments by county planning staff, read the county planning staff reports, attended the NIM, met with Brian Stock personally as President of Naples Park Area Association three times, and attended all three days of hearings with the Planning Commission. I have learned alot about the development application process as a result of this interaction and my concern for the meaning of the Growth Management Plan continues to escalate. I acknowledge Stock Development altered their original plan but the remaining application remains inappropriate. I strongly object to changing the Growth Management Plan simply to satisfy the desires of one developer when it will have a significant negative impact to the nature of a shared resource in the county in order to reach a certain desired Return on Investment. When Stock bought the property he knew the zoning and its requirements. The property can be nicely developed in many ways, including offering his specialty---high end housing---but at a substantially reduced density., He made clear in our discussions that he could not reduce the density further below the current application. If the ROI is insufficient when accomplished within the current Growth Management Plan and zoning constraints, it is not the problem of the neighbors or the residents of the county to change the Growth Management Plan to meet the ROI needs of the developer. If the Board of Commissioners insists on allowing a change to the Growth Management plan, then it is imperative to follow the guidance of the county planning staff and require the developer to meet all the conditions they set forward in their report so that the impact of the project is somewhat mitigated. If we choose to ignore county planning staff and the clearly stated opinions of a large number of county residents I fear the following: 1) The One Naples towers will quickly become the SHORTEST towers in the neighborhood as current buildings are "refreshed". 2) The One Naples development will stall mid-stream when sales don't develop as planned--- the pool area and workout area seem insufficient to attract high-end buyers who will not be interested in sharing the beach with the current crowds nor deal with the current level of traffic in the area. We will end up with a larger problem at that site than we have now. 3) The Growth Management Plan will be seen as something that is readily gutted and has little meaning. The growth of Collier County will be unbridled and make the county less desirable for current and future residents and businesses. Thank you for reading my input and considering it as you deliberate this question. Sincerely, Marsha D Bale Oenick PS---your newsletter is GREAT. I am a subscriber and find it very useful.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. This project should not be allowed to go thru - it will destroy the uniqueness of the area and limit beach access. Development should be compatible with the existing neighborhoods and benefit the residents as well as the developers. Massive development should not be allowed - the developers should have to go by the standards and rules set for the area. This letter came to my attention so I am forwarding it to the board - praying that this board elected by the People will honor the wishes and hear the people's concerns and not cater to the greed of the developer. Condo towers near beach too large The One Naples project, a massive development proposed for near the shoreline, is a recipe for disaster. Current plans call for crowding five residential buildings, two of them 186-foot towers, into a tiny 5.4-acre parcel at the foot of busy Vanderbilt Beach Road. It makes no sense. The project is totally incompatible with the neighborhood (in North Naples). It would add hundreds of residents near a public beach, significantly increasing traffic and parking problems in an area already highly congested area. Traffic backup and spillover into adjoining streets would jeopardize walkers and bicyclists and hamper emergency rescues. The Collier County Planning Commission refused to endorse the project. What’s the solution? Reduce the size and scope of the project, as spelled out by county staff. The Collier County Presidents Council, representing some 20,000 doors in the county, urges the County Commission to send the One Naples proposal back to the drawing board.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: On Monday, you and your fellow Commissioners will be hearing Stock Development’s application for One Naples. I am writing you today to express my strong opposition to the marina as Stock has proposed it. How will up to 99 boat slips and a fuel dock affect water quality of Vanderbilt Lagoon? Water quality at this lagoon has been studied by Collier County and the Conservancy of Southwest Florida for years. The lagoon is polluted and lacks the amount of dissolved oxygen many organisms need to survive. It can’t flush the pollutants because its southern flow to Clam Pass was blocked by earlier development. This Lagoon is the southern termination of the Wiggins Pass Estuary. The Conservancy’s 2005 Estuaries Report Card for the water quality of Wiggins Pass Estuary was C-. In 2017, the Report Card for its water quality was D-. Ironically, the Cocohatchee River, part of the Wiggins Pass Estuary, is designated by the State of Florida as Outstanding Florida Water. This designation guarantees the water will have special heightened protection from pollution. The Army Corps of Engineers determined that Wiggins Pass Estuary warrants manatee protection. Management and protection for the manatees in Collier County are set forth in section 5.05.02 of the Land Development Code, titled “Marinas.” Section C of 5.05.02 describes a rating system to evaluate proposed marina facilities. The purpose of the marina site rating system is to determine maximum wet slip densities to improve existing manatee protection. In evaluating a parcel for a potential boat facility, a minimum sphere of influence for the boat traffic must be designated. As proposed, One Naples marina would exasperate pollution of the Vanderbilt Lagoon and create unfavorable conditions for manatees. Building this marina is belong. Sincerely, Susan L.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner, I would like to address a matter that is of great concern to myself and to the residents of Collier County: The proposed One Naples project by Stock Development. In the case of Stock Development's application regarding One Naples, two related parts came before the Collier County Planning Commission. Part one was an amendment to the County's GMP in which Stock asked for the addition of a new Sub-District encompassing the 5.42 acres of his development. The purpose of the addition was to change the current regulations that limit the density allowed on his land. His request would double the density from sixteen dwelling units per acre, 87 units, to 32 dwelling units per acre,172 units. Without this change to the GMP, the plans that he presented in his rezoning application (part two) in which he asked for two 208-foot high towers, inadequate setbacks, several midrise buildings, and other considerations could not be approved. I was very disappointed in the outcome of the Collier County Planning Commission meeting on Thursday, November 5, 2020. The deadlock does not provide the County Board of Commissioners with any meaningful input. Hopefully, the County Commissioners have a “transcript” of the voting and discussions at the end of the meeting. The newer Planning Board members were not instructed properly beforehand on how the deliberations and voting would happen. Instead, Commissioner Schmitt quickly made a motion and Commissioner Homiak quickly seconded it, ensuring that a vote be taken and that no other motion could be made. The newer members thought there would be an opportunity to make a motion that would be more acceptable to the majority but sadly found out after the voting on the first motion that that could not happen. The point that came across clearly from the meeting on Thursday, November 5, 2020 was that the developer’s proposal is unacceptable. The developer falsely claims that they can only build the original plan. If not allowed, they will have to deal with the current zoning and they claim that is worse for the residents. This is not the case and is a poor attempt to get their plan approved. The developer can certainly build a scaled down version of their proposal. They can certainly bring the height and density within the current regulations and still have the same type of project. Yes, the land will eventually be developed by someone. But the development should fall within rules and regulations. We ask that Stock respect the existing zoning and his proposed amendment to the Growth Management Plan should be denied. Stock bought the land fully understanding the current zoning. He could have and should have asked for variances before he bought it. Stock is relying on previous situations that were voted to allow developers to run slipshod over the wishes of your taxpaying constituents. Stock is apparently so used to getting its way, that it just assumed that it could run over everybody in North Naples. When Stock Development incentivizes the Barefoot Pelican Condominium Association with nearly $550,000 in cash & services to subscribe to Stock’s position, suddenly there are no boundaries for developers. If there is a resistance problem, they simply throw money at it until it is fixed to their satisfaction. The idea, apparently, is that everyone has a price. And we can expect more of the same with the Vanderbilt Palms Condo Association. Stock and other self-serving developers can not be allowed to buy their way into our neighborhood and completely compromise our quality of life solely for their benefit. This must stop. An approval of Stock’s plan would show that the Commissioners, at heart, have little regard for the will of the people, that they side with developers and endless unrestrained growth. Traffic will be increased on a road that already has traffic issues. Beachwalk Gardens has asked for a traffic light at their entrance due to traffic congestion and has been turned down. I have been told that the county states there are too many traffic lights already on Vanderbilt. So why are we considering increasing traffic and adding a traffic light for the Developer? We should deal with the existing traffic congestion issue first. The developer’s traffic plans create an undeniable surge in traffic on residential roads which are already dealing with traffic similar to Beachwalk Gardens’ where residents have to make a right in order to make a left. The drivers then have to turn around on Vanderbilt or drive through a residential area and up 91st. The developer claims that C3 traffic would be worse than their proposed plan. However, a plan that sticks to the height and density rules and regulations would drastically cut down on their proposed increased traffic. Approval of any plan in excess of existing buildings already in the area sets a precedent for all future building. Any future developer can, and will, ask for exceptions based on this case. The excessive height would become a new norm, or average, that would be used for comparison for future development. The developer’s height, set back, and density are double what is allowed. No exception should be made to such extreme violation of existing rules and regulations. The rules and regulations are in place for a purpose and should be adhered to. Changing the rules is effectively “spot zoning”. You will hear that spot zoning can only be brought up if a challenge is filed with the Circuit Court. That is the developer’s way to try to get the rules changed now so that they can argue that the defense of spot zoning does not apply since the new rule incorporates their zoning changes and allows their plan. Changing the rules so that spot zoning can’t be a future defense is unethical and should not be allowed. It is essentially spot zoning. One Naples is certainly not in the best interests of the residents or the county. It affects all of our districts. We ask the County Board of Commissioners to take into consideration the overwhelming opposition residents have to the proposed project as it stands now and vote against the amendment to the County’s Growth Management plan that Stock’s application seeks. At the November 5th meeting, only one resident voiced support for the project, and he was a restaurant owner and spoke from a business perspective.

Dear Commissioners: Those of us who have been reviewing the plans of One Naples have been closely following the work of the Planning Staff, meeting with them and adding comments to their findings. We have not been forwarding our work to the Commissioners because we had been hopeful that meetings with Brian Stock would result in a more positive outcome. While Brian has said he is listening to the neighbors, we have not found this to be so. He appears to be entrenched in building his legacy high rise towers and 3 mid-rise buildings on this mere 4.8 acres of land across from our Vanderbilt Beach in spite of all the negative impacts. The problem seems to be that there is a critical design flaw and if he wants to hold onto it, the impacts will be egregious to the neighborhood. And he does not appear willing to acknowledge that the design is just not compatible with the neighborhood. That being said, I am forwarding my work in reviewing the Stock submissions, taking into consideration the comments of the Planning Staff as well as the neighbors. The One Naples Plans are deficient. They show inconsistencies; they ask for a hotel as an incidental use, when they do not address its impacts. Brian says he will not build a hotel, yet he refuses to remove the hotel use from the submission. We are at a stalemate with him. Please read my comments on this development. We are trying to come up with a mutually satisfying development.

I am a homeowner in Beachwalk just down the street. My family has had a presence in Naples since 1967. In that time I have seen quite a few changes, some good and some that we all regret that have changed the character that brought us all here in the first place. I don't have to tell you about the congestion and density at Vanderbilt Beach or about the significant changes to surrounding neighborhoods that this development will bring. You should already know this. My wife and I are asking you to consider the little guys in this situation -- the neighbors for whom Vanderbilt Beach is critically important to their daily lives. We all love Naples for its charm and character. Florida is a wonderful state but Naples is the true gem in the entire state. Please do not destroy what makes Naples what it is. The One Naples development is not just oversized for the location, it will forever change what makes the Vanderbilt Beach area so unique and so special. Vanderbilt Beach is already overly congested and is fast becoming a difficult area to get in and out of -- in fact, it is becoming unsafe and actually dangerous. Please spend some time standing at the corner of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive, especially at 10:00 am or just before sunset. Observe for yourself the steady stream of cars and motorcycles, old and young people on bicycles, people of all ages walking, children running, mothers pushing baby strollers, young people on their cell phones -- it is a chaotic scene -- and a potentially dangerous situation -- people not paying attention, people caught up in the rush to get to the beach carrying umbrellas, chairs, coolers, boogie boards and water toys. You know and you must admit to the citizens that the One Naples development is not going to just contribute to this congestion, it is going to push it over the top. Lastly, I implore you to consider how the Ritz Carlton resort and the La Playa resort were strategically built apart so as not to result in an overcrowded and unmanageable situation. These two resorts have been great neighbors and additions to the area. The One Naples development will not fit this model. Instead it will forever destroy the beauty, the charm, the attraction, the serenity of Vanderbilt Beach. I believe in development but please remember that not all development is good and worthy. I pray that you will seriously consider "we the people" who live in the area and call this area home before you make your decision.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: We are writing to you to urge you to vote against the variances that will be coming before you for a vote on Monday March 1st. We are in support of keeping the neighborhood consistent with the current zoning laws. It is one thing to allow a small variance within 10 ft but allowing a 15ft setback when the current code is 93ft and a height variance of 186ft when the current allowance is 77ft it begs the question why have any zoning laws? In addition, where will the open space be for the community, what happens to the wildlife that will be disrupted from the 99 boat slips, how will traffic congestion be handled and shouldn't the developer gift the County $4.3M for roads and open space instead of the other way around? We are not against developing and improving the neighborhood but seeing that the zoning board voted against this project it shouldn't go forward with just a commission vote.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner, When the ONE NAPLES project was initially presented, it seemed like the project was a little too massive for the small area where it would go. After the developer changes were presented, it seemed to be a reasonable compromise and as a result, I thought that the project should go forward. This seems very typical in the developer world where they give up a little something to get community approval. However, after learning more about how the scope of the project is not even close to complying with County regulations, I have changed my opinion to a emphatic NO. The height of the buildings is not even close to what is “approvable” for this area. The setbacks totally ignore the guidelines standards. To make comparisons to Pelican Bay is not a fair comparison in my opinion. Perhaps the developer comment should be that these buildings are shorter than the skyscrapers of New York City. Pelican Bay, although nearby, is a large parcel of land that is in the 4 to 5,000 acre range. Not a good comparison. Please side with the people who live here now and will continue to live here after the developers are long gone and vote NO on the ONE NAPLES item. Thank you for your consideration.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioners The County Government Website says it best: “The Board of County Commissioners serves as the governing body of the county and has the responsibility of setting policies that protect the health, safety, welfare and quality of life of our residents and visitors. “ It further goes on to list the vision, mission, and values of the county: Vision To be the best community in America to live,work and play. Mission To deliver high quality, best-value, public services, programs, and facilities to meet the needs of our residents, visitors, and businesses today and tomorrow. Guiding Principles (Values) Honesty, Integrity, Service, Accountability, Quality, Consistency, Respect, Knowledge, Stewardship, Collaboration, Self-Initiating, Self-Correcting Take each one of these key responsibilities - health, safety, welfare, and quality of life - that the commissioners and the county should be taking into consideration in any project or matter that comes before them. Hold those up against the proposed One Naples project and you can instantly see how this project violates everything that the commissioners should be standing for. Let’s take a look at them one by one: Health - with so much development crammed into 5.4 acres, increased traffic to an already overcrowded beach, significantly increased boat traffic on the small residential canals nearby, and the removal of “green space” how is the health of the residents in the neighborhood and the county being cared for? If anything, the increased pollution, traffic, noise, stress from congestion, higher density on the beach will most certainly negatively impact the health of surrounding residents. Safety - traffic on a road that cannot be expanded will increase no doubt. The people who already enjoy the beautiful walk or bike along the roads in the area will now be in much more danger from this increase. In addition, with so many more residents and only one nearby fire and safety facility and not forgetting the congestion, response times during peak times of the year to emergencies could also significantly impact the safety of the community. Not to mention, cost the county significantly more to increase services. Welfare - if you are looking for happy residents and visitors, the last thing you want is to antagonize them with congestion, pollution, and unsightly developments with little green space that simply do not fit into the surrounding community. What are the benefits to the developments and current residents in the area? How does it benefit the residents of the county who will now have even more crowded beaches? It’s certainly not economic progress, or expanded restaurants, shops, entertainment that the area is currently zoned for that would bring long term additional jobs to the area. People bought in that area with full knowledge of what could be done in the surrounding area. That’s what great county planning is all about - letting people know what they are getting into when they invest in a community and trust that their investment is sound - not devalued by pulling the rug out from under them with a drastic change like One Naples. It simply is not going to make anyone in the area happy. Quality of Life - why has Naples constantly been rated by numerous sources as one of the small towns to live in the country? Because of its quality of life! Naples is not Miami - with high rise after high packed into small footprints, traffic congestion, and sprawling development. Communities in Naples have to date been carefully planned and executed according to well thought out longstanding zoning. Why change now? To make a corporation significantly more money? Once the dam is broken there will be no excuse for developers to not “redevelop” Naples into Miami as the opportunity arises. The attraction of people to Naples because of its small charm and beautiful neighborhoods will be gone. Having previously lived on the other coast for 10 years, and now in Naples for over 10 years I can tell you I breathe a sigh of relief every time I return from the other coast, and thank God that I live in Naples - not Miami. So, commissioners, I ask you - how are you going to honor your responsibilities to the citizens of Collier County? If you don’t see by the 1000’s of emails, letters, and other communications from concerned citizens who are your bosses and do not understand how you can not see the detriment this development does to the values that we as citizens of Naples & Collier County hold so dear, then you must be living in an alternate reality. And no doubt at the ballot box you will be swiftly brought back to the true reality of what your constituents desire. What you do now will not just affect this one development, but has the potential to radically change Naples for all time. Is that the legacy you want as an elected official? Is that what you want for your children and grandchildren? Is that your vision of how “to be the best community in America to live, work, and play”? Actions have consequences. Make sure your action is to stop this development that goes against all the responsibilities and policies you are sworn to uphold as a county commissioner and instead hold true to the vision for Naples & Collier County to be the “best community in America to live, work, and play”.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Ms. Taylor: I am writing in opposition to the One Naples Project. Despite my high opinion of Stock Development and Brian Stock, I believe that this development will be detrimental to our neighborhood. I am a full-time resident of The Trieste condominium building across the street. My opinion is based upon the following issues: Conversion of the property C-3 zoning to residential should only allow 16 units per acre. This development has 31.7 units per acre, almost double the allowed number. The development will create significant additional traffic, noise, and beach use. The setbacks are nowhere near adequate to bring One Naples into a compatible relationship with surrounding properties in the neighborhood. The traffic light at the corner of Gulf Shore and Vanderbilt Beach Road, as proposed, will make it increasingly difficult and dangerous to exit One Naples and make left turns from either end of South Bay Drive. The marina is currently not restricted to residents only in One Naples. This change must be made. I fully agree that this site demands redevelopment, but this should be done in a manner consistent with the existing neighborhood. As currently planned, my opinion is that the development will decrease property values in the surrounding area rather than increase them. The property should be redeveloped in a manner in which to increase property values throughout this section of North Naples. My thoughts are meant to be constructive. Thank you for your consideration in this matter. Best wishes, Bob Robert M.

Dear Board of Commissioners, We recently purchased a condo at Barefoot Pelican looking to escape the madness of Northern NJ and NYC. We saw a beautiful area and we Knew that the area would be developed into residential condos making the area even more beautiful. We never anticipated the animosity we are experiencing. We are IN FAVOR of a residential building and want to be a good Neighbor to Stock Development. What we DO NOT WANT IS COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE on our corner. We have plenty of Malls and Stores in the area and we do not want the beautiful Landscape of Vanderbilt Beach destroyed with commercial business. Please approve the One Naples Project for residential use only. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Collier County Commissioners: Mr. Andy Solis, Esq. Ms. Penny Taylor Mr. William L. McDaniel, Jr. Mr. Burt L. Saunders Mr. Rick LoCastro It is my understanding that one of the condo associations most affected by the One Naples project has received a tentative proposal from Stock Development offering several monetary "incentives" to the condo association if they agree to drop their opposition to the One Naples project. They must also agree to speak publicly in favor of One Naples, and write a supporting letter to the Board of Collier County Commissioners on Stock's behalf. The package is very significant, estimated to be between $300,000 - $400,000. If this is true, it poses a significant conflict of interest because the motivation of such a condo association would not necessarily be what is in the best interest of the community, but rather what is in the best financial interest of the association. Therefore, I urge you to require that anyone testifying in writing or in person at the One Naples March Board of County Commissioners meeting disclose whether they, or the community association in which they live, have received any compensation from Stock Development, its affiliates or representatives and if so, the amount of such compensation. While such association has a right to voice its opinion on the project, such disclosure would allow the you full transparency to a significant motivating factor.

Dear Members of the Collier County Planning Commission, We are shocked to learn that the One Naples project continues to be considered by the Planning Commission and the Collier County Board. It will exacerbate an already intolerable traffic problem along the stretch of Vanderbilt Beach Road from U.S. 41 to the Gulf and along Vanderbilt Drive. It creates a gated fortress which excludes the public and appropriates public streets and essential parking spaces. It eliminates essential businesses and forecloses the possibility of adding more local services contemplated by the commercial zoning. The project is an awkward agglomeration of parcels, some of which are jointly owned with others, and because of its odd configuration resembles a rube goldberg of structures and facilities. While the developer is well known for its homes, it has little if any experience with high rise developments; the developer’s inexperience and the ill-conceived nature of the project raises the real risk of failure which would permanently scar the local community. Particularly irksome, is the developer’s childish threat that if it can’t get the needed waivers it will punish the County by building something “of right” that the developer claims will be much worse for the area. The response should be “Bring it on!”. While the developer writes a fairy tail of another Mercato, the reality would be a series of small commercial businesses serving the local community which would reduce traffic, not worsen it. This threat seems so farfetched that one hopes that it is not a straw being grasped by Commissioners and Board members who have benefitted from substantial contributions from the developer. Please do the obvious.....send the developer back to the drawing boards to give us what we need in this area - - - some convenient local businesses as contemplated by the exisitng zoning. Thank you.

In the interest of our residency as full time home owners in the immediate area of the possible upcoming project, titled Stock Development-One Naples, we are insisting that you vote in opposition to this project. By voting in the affirmative, you are ignoring the existing problems that currently confront the neighborhood surrounding the beach at Vanderbilt Beach Road. On many days all year round, the traffic backs up to Highway 41, also known as Tamiami Trail, and limits the neighborhood traffic from obtaining any easy access to the adjacent grocery stores, library, restaurants, fitness centers, barbers, beauty salons, movie theaters, immediate health care facility, and our homes. Our quality of life will definitely be impacted by this large development known as Stock Development-One Naples. Besides us as neighborhood dwellers, thousands of other Naples residents will also be impacted by curtailed and congested access to the Vanderbilt Beach access point. As a commissioner on the Naples Board, it is your responsibility to act in the best interest of your constituents and vote NO to this upcoming Stock Development-One Naples project. We definitely oppose this One Naples Stock Development and expect your negative vote on this issue, as well. Please act on our behalf and on behalf of the other Naples residents, visitors, and friends who frequent the area in and around this outrageously large Vanderbilt Beach Road project. By opposing the Stock Development-One Naples, you will give us proof that Florida law prohibits unlawful spot zoning, which we believe is identified in this proposed project in our backyard and neighborhood. Thank you for your negative vote on Stock Development-One Naples. Believe that your negative vote on this project is protecting the quality of life for your constituents and the safety of Collier County.

My name is Sue Hecht and I have lived in your district for 16 years and been a property owner for 28 years. . I wish to express my extreme disapproval for the proposed One Naples project. The developer's request for amendments to the GMP are just unacceptable. It is outlandish to consider granting his multiple amendments which violate multiple rules of the GMP including density building height, setbacks and open space. Seriously---he wants the commissioners to consider private pools and cabanas as "Open Space". What an insult to your intelligence. I do not live in the Vanderbilt Beach area, but as a long term resident I have ownership and responsibility to the entire community of Collier County. I urge the Commissioners to fulfill their responsibilities to their constituency, uphold the rules of the GMP and not bend to big money and big business.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: On March 1 you and your fellow Commissioners will be hearing Stock Development’s application for One Naples. I am writing you today to express my strong opposition to the development as Stock has proposed it. I know full well that this development is not in our District, and that Commissioners generally tend to vote with the Commissioner in whose District the project lies. But, in this case I ask you to act independently. Residents of Commissioner Solis’ District have overwhelmingly shown their opposition. I know that you are aware of that as I know that you have received hundreds of emails telling you so. I believe that Commissioner Solis intends to vote in support of the Stock amendment to the Growth Management Plan. His reason for doing so is flawed. He feels that the neighborhood is not capable of understanding the nuances of the matter before you, and that he, alone, knows what is good for his District. When he tells people, “Be careful what you wish for.” he is saying that the residents of the affected neighborhood don’t know what they are asking. assure you that they do understand the ramifications of asking that Stock respect the existing C-3 zoning. One Naples is not simply a District 2 issue. Its approval would send a message that it’s “business as usual,” and that the “Miamification” of Collier County will continue. That must stop! I am asking you to vote to deny Stock’s proposed amendment to the Growth Management Plan I along with hundreds of others will be there on March 1st to support you in making the right decision.

The purpose of this E-mail is to make a final attempt to convince you how important it is to show Collier County residents you represent their best interests and not those of developers. First, I would like to thank each of the Commissioners for taking the time to listen to the thoughts of the Pelican Bay Property Owners Association which represents about 12,000 residents. Add our numbers to those residents in surrounding communities who will be negatively impacted by a yes decision and you probably have over 25,000 residents who want you to represent them and vote NO!!!! To support my statement, I can share with you that of all the meetings, discussions, surveys, we held on One Naples, only two folks believed this was a beneficial project for the community. We are now at the point where the general community believes this project is not compatible with the rest of the community, is really spot zoning, when the area calls for keeping the commercial zoning in place.

As a Pelican Bay homeowner, I am extremely concerned with what the One Naples project will do to the Vanderbilt beach area. It will overcrowd that vital county resource that so many need to have access to a beach for their families. It will also impact traffic and quality of life along Vanderbilt Beach Road, and also impact our Pelican Bay lifestyle, since folks will more than likely cut through Pelican Bay to avoid the Vanderbilt Rd., and Rt 41 intersection if the are traveling south. I must ask you to give your upmost consideration to stopping this disruptive project, no matter the money involved, to avoid making our corner of the world into another overbuilt Florida beach area.

It is quite obvious in practical terms that the proposed project is too massive, too dense for the 5.4 acres of land available to the developer. Vanderbilt Beach Road and Vanderbilt are presently crowded with cars and people enjoying the beautiful public beach. This congested area cannot sustain a project that would bring to the area the people and their cars, and boats this project calls for. Vanderbilt Beach ,a favorite for Naples residents brings hundreds and hundreds of cars each day, especially on weekends and any day at sunset time. Allowing this proposed project with this density would be a disaster for all people of Naples. Please require the developer to go back to the drawing boards and submit new plans comparable to the area and reasonable for the 5.4 acres of available land. The future of our beautiful Naples is in your hands. Please do not destroy Naples and turn it into Miami or NYC.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear commissioners, As a resident of Gulf Shore Drive I received a certified letter informing me of a Right of Way Vacation and request to provide no objection regarding streets within the One Naples Project (see attached pdf). I assume this notification is a legal requirement which I fully understand. However, the developer provided a letter and return envelope in which I COULD ONLY STATE THAT I HAD NO OBJECTION. There was no opportunity to respond with OBJECTION. I think this is outrageous to utilize a legal procedural notice to promote a self serving biased response. Clearly the community’s response will not be fairly solicited. You will probably be told of those who responded all had no objection. OF COURSE! This is the only choice provided. At the least the developer should be reprimanded by the commissioners and this notice declared invalid. They should be required to send another notice either without a solicitation of no objection or a solicitation for an OBJECT/NO OBJECT response. In the larger sense I hope this informs you of the biased and self serving tactics employed by the developer regarding this project and raises your level of scrutiny regarding statements, studies, site conditions, and “facts” submitted for your review of this project.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Hello, I am a FULL TIME resident and owner at the Barefoot Pelican that is located within the same two blocks of the soon to be One Naples. Obviously, I am writing to share my opinion of the project. Unlike many of the Part Time residents I know the project will not only enhance the area but also bring safety to our corner of Gulfshore and Vanderbilt Beach. I would like to say that I am not a retiree as I work full time and feel that many of the owners at the BP are out of touch with reality. They have no vision or foresight as to what can be. Instead, they somehow believe they have the right to control the whole block that Stock has purchased. I think that it is just their inexplorable mindset from the 1980's when many purchased. With all of this being said, I support the project. In addition, I am embarrassed by the behavior of a very few who do nothing to improve our own association but choose to go after what will be a shining star next to us. I personally give Stock kudos for the kindness and generosity they have attempted to share through our former president Tina Seely (who by the way has worked tirelessly to try to educate the benighted opponents). Unfortunately it seems many people are so egocentric that they are unwilling to listen to the positive of something due to their own impediments. In closing, I give my wholehearted support of this project and my only regret is that it is not in my budget to purchase a unit in One Naples. All the best to the Commissioners taking the time to read a Collier county tax payers thoughts on this matter Roxanne Landry unit 232 Barefoot Pelican From:Kathleen A.

I realize that charm and quaint are long gone, but this current wave of big development has far exceeded anything we could have imagined, and not in a good way.

Dear Collier County Commissioners, The Stock family have been investing in the quality of our community for many years, supporting local schools through their support of Champions For Learning. They have a reputation of caring about the well-being of families and have shared their time, talent and treasure in support of education in Collier County. I do not want to express my opinion either way with regard to your decisions concerning One Naples, as that is something that you will have to determine what is best for the community. I do want to express my appreciation for a family company that has demonstrated a long standing history of doing what is best for the community in its generous support for teachers and students. During this pandemic, hurricanes, and recessions, they have never failed in their financial support for Champions For Learning programs that helped students, families and educators achieve their goals for their future. I know that they have a true commitment to the quality of life and share their success with the community.

Dear Commissioners: Your role as commissioner comes with the responsibility to set policies that “protect the Health, Safety, Welfare and Quality of Life” of Collier’s residents. Yet, the Naples One development which clearly is in direct contravention to the Board’s stated responsibilities continues to go forward. This oversized development on a 5 acre lot is a testament to developer greed over community welfare. No one who has walked or driven past the proposed site could possibly see this area supporting the traffic, density, height and proposed “set backs” as being remotely appropriate for this location, let alone the consequent environmental implications. Currently, Vanderbilt Beach is overcrowded yearly. Imagine what the Naples One development will bring. There should be NO criteria or justification for granting the numerous variances being requested. Those variances would in no way improve the health, safety, welfare or quality of life for the current residents of this area. Commissioners, I urge you and your colleagues to put a halt to this unconscionable development. The quality of many lives is at risk. It is my understanding that it was the role the communities elected you to do.

I do wish to go on the record as a concerned citizen regarding what is happening with the development and information coming for some of you. If the developer is in continuing negotiations with the county attorney and changes are being made with some frequency then the public has a right to know what, when and how these changes may occur. It is patently unfair for any of the interested parties to be “surprised” at your meeting on Monday with revisions that could impact your vote. As publicly propose the development requires you to waive a number of elements of the county code. In addition the proposal requires you to provide county land to a developer without compensation. This combination makes the current publicly revealed development untenable for local residents and county citizens. I ask you to consider some review of any changes than may be revealed at the public meeting and if the current plan is considered to reject.

Commissioners, Walking from our home in the Beachwalk community has always been an enjoyable experience - open air, gulf breezes and plenty of sunshine. This will all change if you allow One Naples to be constructed as presently planned. The five story building and huge wall next to the sidewalk along Vanderbilt Beach Road will block out the sunshine, gulf breezes and open feeling, the tunnel effect will be there forever. Please don't let this happen. Other concerns: - The congestion near the beach and traffic back-up alone VB road will become unbearable. - The 2 fourteen story buildings and 3 five story buildings will eliminate the open feeling and produce the unwanted tunnel effect. - The 99 boat slips, store and gas pumps will add traffic, noise and pollution to the peaceful lagoon that so many residents enjoy. - The precedent of allowing so many variances to the zoning laws will forever have a negative effect on the quality of life in all of Collier county. Why do we have zoning laws if builders continually receive variances? Will the proposed One Naples improve the health, safety, welfare and quality of life the residents of this area? ABSOLUTELY NOT!

Dear Commissioner Taylor, Please do not approve the requests for amending the GMP so that The One Naples project can go ahead as proposed. This would be a terrible addition to an already crowded area and is way bigger in height and breadth than five acres of land can accommodate. The fit with the surrounding area is nonexistent. This building project should be in open space with lots of setback space-not squeezed into this postage stamp lot in the middle of an already existing neighborhood which clearly is not in favor of having it. If you are to succeed in keeping Naples a desirable a place to live as it is now, these kinds of projects must not be allowed to proceed.

Dear Ms. Taylor, Please don’t be swayed by a big development corporation that wants to change the footprint of the Vanderbilt Beach area! Over 10 years ago I was fortunate to purchase a small condo not far from where the One Naples project is planned. As much as I loved coming down to enjoy the beaches and wonderful lifestyle of Southwest Florida, I could never stay for any long periods as I still worked. At last, I have now retired and can look forward to extended stays with friends and family. The only problem is this large scale development that threatens the natural beauty, peace and resources of this area. The very thing that convinced me to use savings and buy a slice of “heaven” is now in danger of being taken away. I don’t see how this project will benefit anyone in the long term except the people involved in its over development. While I count myself fortunate to even own property in this location, I must object to such major construction that will forever change the landscape. Believe me, I live in downstate New York and know what over development looks like. Once you go there you can never go back. I implore you to continue your good stewardship of our town and protect our habitat! Thank you for making the right decision to best serve the people, wildlife and resources of Vanderbilt Beach.

Dear Commissioner Taylor, Obviously, all of the information shows that the covenants and codes have not been followed, the mass is not in keeping with the neighborhood, the current owners have been thrown into terrible stress over all of this, even losing friendships over it, and it will cause the worst, most dangerous traffic situations and the overcrowding at the Vanderbilt Beach area will incite confrontations over parking and access. Also of great concern is the terrible invasion of the lagoon and it’s existing sea life. All of this is due to this developer’s greed.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: Once again , I am making my voice heard on important issues affecting our beautiful Collier County and the lovely quality of life we enjoy here. I have been a land owner in Naples & Collier County since 1985 and a legal resident of Florida and of Pelican Bay since 1998. Please do NOT, I repeat do NOT, vote to approve the One Naples project. I have read many articles and letters against it as well as Brian Stock's PR & marketing for it. It really boils down to who follows the rules and who does not. The Planning Commission does NOT support this project as it violates MANY of the codes...codes which were established for the well being and quality of Collier County. This is one of the main reasons this area is consistently ranked at the top destination in surveys. It is what separates us from our neighbors on the East Coast. I am sure Brian Stock is a nice person and his company has been developing here for some time. That has nothing to do with approving this project. It is way too dense for the area it is proposed for. Last weekend I had company who drove down Vanderbilt Rd from The Pavillion shopping center to enter Pelican Bay. When they finally arrived they spoke about the backed up traffic on Vanderbilt Road and how long it took them to make their turn. This is already a heavily traveled road which is always problematic in season with high traffic volume. Parking for the Vanderbilt Beach is very limited and difficult to access at this time. There are SO MANY reasons to veto this project. And Stock's influence & profit is the only one positive factor in the equation. Wrong Project in the Wrong Area !!! Follow the thousands of voices of your constituents , follow the advice of your Planning Commission and follow the history of quality requirements for our community. Vote NO, NO, NO for this project.

Commissioners: My wife and I are NOT FL residents; rather, we annually visit for the month of February and bring along many family/friends to The Regatta, just a few blocks east of the proposed development. None of us have any involvement whatsoever with the developer of One Naples nor have we been asked by anyone living at The Regatta or in the Vanderbilt Beach Drive neighborhood to speak for or against the proposed One Naples development. Since “tourists” play such a major role in Naples , we thought you might be interested in what some “outsiders” think of the current dispute. The only information we have is the following material printed in the Sunday February 21, 2021 Naples Daily News: 1) Brian Stock’s Guest Commentary on Page 5B, and 2) the Save Vanderbilt Beach group’s commentary on page 21A. Here are our thoughts: A. Effect on Existing Neighbors Since sunsets are so prized in Naples, we would expect that most existing building owners in the neighborhood are upset that their view of the Gulf is about to vanish. The only way to completely solve that problem is to prevent any development from exceeding one single story … certainly an unrealistic “solution.” At some point, that land is going to be used for something. B. Growth Management Plan Presumably, some governmental organization spent a lot of time discussing what parameters to use when deciding what could be built where. It sure sounds like the One Naples development significantly violates the current GMP. If that is so, then what is the rationale for creating a GMP in the first place? C. Naples is simply BEAUTIFUL Over the years as we have traveled around the Naples area, we continue to be amazed at the many, many beautiful developments. We (and our friends and family) continue to return because of that beauty … the lush, open spaces that provide a sense of grandeur. Has anyone mentioned their thoughts about what it will feel like to walk/drive/bike down Vanderbilt Beach Drive if One Naples is allowed to proceed in its current form? Please remember that while hundreds may live in the immediate area, many thousands more will walk/drive/bike down Vanderbilt Beach Drive. It sure looks like those humans will have to deal with a 15-20 foot extended, flat concrete wall that will closely border Vanderbilt Beach Drive and Gulf Shore Drive. Where else in the City of Naples have you allowed that to happen? Our point is that instead of focusing on the height of the buildings, attention needs to be given to the very human “boxed-in” feeling that accompanies a walled-in compound. Whatever is done inside the compound to make it appealing will have NO impact on the thousands of people who daily will travel along the street because it will be 15 or so feet above their heads/cars/bikes. Finally, at first we had no idea that the DaRuMa restaurant and several of the existing condo buildings will remain inside the walled-compound. Is there an architect in the world who would willingly group those existing buildings together in a new development? Furthermore, it is hard to imagine how 5 more buildings can be constructed in that space without everything feeling that it was “shoe-horned in.” As currently proposed, the One Naples development will cheapen, not beautify Naples.

I walk by that area almost every day, and I think what they are planning to build doesn’t fit with the neighborhood. It’s ugly, huge, tall, and too close to the street. And why are they trying to hide their plans? The drawing they have provided to the newspaper shows One Naples in the background, with the Ritz and Trieste in the foreground. This drawing is very deceptive. What are they trying to hide? SaveVanderbiltBeach placed an ad in today’s paper showing what One Naples will really look like.

Therefore, why are the Commissioners even considering One Naples with all of its inadequacies. Another developer will come along and design a project in keeping with the neighborhood and would be willing to abide by current regulations. Please STOP this project right now.

February 20, 2021 Dear Commissioner Taylor The Beachwalk Community of 356 dwellings is the largest community fronting on VBR (Vanderbilt Road) half way between Hwy 41 and Gulfshore Drive. We have lived here for 20 years and seen major traffic and noise growth coupled with unsafe exit to VBR. There is only one exit, and turning left is extremely unsafe especially during the winter season. Major concerns are also with how this Stock development can flout GMP and LDC requirements: <!--[if !supportLists]-->1. <!--[endif]-->We object to the zoning density of this proposal: 87 units per code, Stock wants172. Zoning setbacks require 50%, 2 towers require 93 ft. Setback Stock wants31 ft. for 3 mid rises requires 38 ft and 43 ft, Stock wants 15 ft. <!--[if !supportLists]-->2. <!--[endif]-->Open space requires 30% open, Stock includes major amenities (pools, cabanas). <!--[if !supportLists]-->3. <!--[endif]-->Zoning requires compatibility and consistence with the existing neighborhood. <!--[if !supportLists]-->4. <!--[endif]--> Traffic issues not addressed. TSI has not considered the Beachwalk Communit y and the nearby communities of Naples Park and Pelican Bay. Transportation has not considered seasonal traffic, emergency exits, or growth from beach traffic growth from Collier east. <!--[if !supportLists]-->5. <!--[endif]-->VBR is currently considered a near failing road (category E) and will surely fail with the proposed increased traffic from Stock and Collier growth. Conclusion: Let’s us keep the current C-1,2,3 zoning even if there is some additional traffic (which is doubtful). It would better serve the community than Shoehorning the proposed monster development Into this small corner. “There is no, planning when a commission can arbitrarily change Zoning and Growth management policy to approve these variances which also conflict with safety, community rights and common sense.” Michael Seef Tel: 239-596-9135 From:Bev Cohen To:TaylorPenny Cc:bevchn@gmail.com Subject:One Naples Date:Sunday, February 21, 2021 11:14:01 AM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source.

February 21, 2021 Dear Ms. Taylor, My husband and I have had a residence in Pelican Bay since 1986, and, in 2015, became Florida residents. Over the years we have obviously seen remarkable growth in our area. The majority of communities within Pelican Bay exit their neighborhoods onto Pelican Bay Boulevard. In season, it can take as much as 4-5 minutes to get onto the Boulevard at various times during the day because of heavy traffic. The roadway has become a cut through for drivers avoiding the lights on 41, both north and south. Additionally, pedestrians cross the Blvd at various points along this roadway to head to the beach or walk along the Pelican Bay Berm. Although Pelican Bay Boulevard is a 4-lane roadway (2 southbound lanes; 2 northbound lanes) two of those lanes are dedicated for cyclists, essentially rendering the Boulevard a 2-lane road. To date, we have not seen a traffic study that has addressed this fact. Pelican Bay Boulevard was intended to be a community roadway within the Pelican Bay community -it was never intended to be a major thoroughfare. I have witnessed car and bike accidents on the Boulevard over the past several years – a concerning situation that will only become even more so with increased traffic from One Naples. Impatient drivers heading east from One Naples to 41 will avoid traffic lights on both Vanderbilt Beach Road and 41 by either heading through neighborhoods in North Naples or onto Pelican Bay Boulevard. The One Naples Development will forever change the complexion of the Pelican Bay community and the neighborhoods of North Naples. The increase in traffic will certainly have a negative impact on the neighborhoods’ quality of life, and, additionally, on our property values. We have witnessed the tremendous growth that has occurred in Collier County for over 30 years, and the changes in zoning that have allowed more development to take place. At what point does this seemingly unstoppable development render Naples no longer one of the most desirable places to live? The One Naples property should remain commercial. Thank you.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Ms. Taylor, It is incomprehensible to me why and how our County government could consider permitting a hugely inappropriate development such as One Naples. The impact on the Vanderbilt Beach community will be devasting and change the landscape in a most negative ways. For one, the density of this development will create crowds of people the surrounding beaches cannot handle. Currently, along Gulf Shore Drive on Vanderbilt Beach, people are driving there cars to unload passengers at the beach accesses along the road. This is dangerous, holds up traffic, and should be policed. This will only get worse with a development such as One Naples. The impact of the traffic will be devasting. The density of One Naples, along with the current load of traffic, will cause many delays and impact the roads. There will be an increased number of accidents, pedestrian safety will be an increased issue, as well as policing the additional density and traffic. Currently, the traffic backs up across the Bluebill Bride for Delnor Wiggins State Park and the Connors Park Parking Lot will be full at peak times. I am a permanent resident of 11 Bluebill Ave, Surf Colony 1. I deal with the Vanderbilt Beach traffic on a daily basis. This is my home and I am not a snowbird. One Naples is not the appropriate development for the designated parcel of land not matter how much Stock Development pays off the adjacent property owners and no matter what type of community benefit they provide. The land and location cannot absorb this density in a safe and healthy manner. There will only be life long problems as a result that can not be reversed. I ask of you, PLEASE do the appropriate, proper, and right thing and DO NOT ALLOW THIS DEVELOPMENT WHATSOEVER! Dennis L.

Commissioner Taylor: As a resident of the Beachmoor condominium I have a direct view of the proposed One Naples development. I am not opposed to development on this piece of land however ONLY a reasonable development, within existing codes is acceptable. The traffic nightmare this proposed development is in itself enough to deny Stock's request. The safety issue for individuals as well as the support personnel, fire rescue, police and ambulance access needs to be highly considered. In addition, the environmental, covid, and neighborhood issues- quality of life, should not be forgotten. Other concerns I have is the way Stock is 'buying' their way into the area. The $550,000.00 cash and services offered to 'certain' condo buildings to gain their approval is unethical to the average person. (That is, one who is not normally involved in such developments ) This action makes one believe that everyone has a price and that the developers will do anything to acquire approval of their proposal for their financial gain. I ask that you deny Stock Development's existing request.

As a long time part time resident of Bay Colony in Pelican Bay, I’m so totally against this huge Concrete Jungle project, it’s proposed in a very small corner, which really doesn’t make sense in this very quiet spot, for the residents that are immediately impacted. Vanderbilt drive is only one way each way, east one way, west the same. Traffic is unbearably in season, as all surrounding inland areas try to use our public beach area by the Ritz. Can’t stop anyone from using the beach, it’s a beautiful place, we are all so very fortunate to be able to own a hone in Naples. I’m not opposed to development, only a large concrete jungle in this area. If you haven’t been to our area, it’s worth a drive to see where stock wants to squeeze this massive project in. Just say no to this huge project if you can, make it a smaller project, retail in bottom, with two floors or residential on top would be more like it and is more suitable in this corner. Just so massive, I can’t believe it! Project is right on the sidewalk practically. No room ever to even widening rd ever or add a bigger bike lane for people wanting to ride to beach or rollerblade, even our sidewalks are inadequate, very tight. I’ll buy you lunch!

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Good morning Jeff and Heidi. As you know I represent the Vanderbilt Beach Residents Association, Inc, (VBRA), and as you are also aware, VBRA opposes the approval of the three pending One Naples applications. During the Planning Commission hearing, I raised the issue that the proposed MPUD would allow the construction of one massive tower. Attached are some excerpts from the Planning Commission hearings regarding whether the developer, based upon the proposed MPUD, could build one big, wide building on Tract MU Tract 1. In reviewing the proposed MPUD documents in the agenda packet, including the proposed conceptual Master Concept Plan (Exhibit C-1 ) and Development Standards Table (Exhibit B and its footnotes) I did not see such a prohibition or restriction. While Footnote #4 of Exhibit B states “ “Exhibit C, Sheet 3 of 4 depicts the location of the towers along Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive...”, in my review, Exhibit C, Sheet 3 of 4 only details setbacks and does not prohibit the construction of one massive tower on Tract MU Tract 1, nor does it show any footprint that would prohibit one “big, wide building”. Does the MPUD as proposed, prohibit the construction of one “big, wide building” on Tract MU1?

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor, We are opposed to Stock Development’s One Naples high-rise project because it fundamentally disregards the Collier County Growth Management Plan (GMP) and Land Development Code which residents and neighborhoods rely on to protect our quality of life and home investment. For this reason, and for the reasons outlined below, I am asking you, as a County Commissioner, to DENY the proposed GMP amendment. As a member of the local community, I fully understand that in doing so, the property will retain its current C-3 zoning, which will provide much needed walkable and bikeable neighborhood services. Stock’s proposed amendment doubles density in the coastal high hazard zone and paves the way for the rezoning request that doubles allowable building height, reduces setbacks by 70%, and cuts in half required open space. The project is not compatible with, or complementary to, adjacent comparable neighborhoods. One Naples will introduce a Collins Ave., Miami Beach-like development into the Naples Park, Gulf Shore Drive and Vanderbilt Beach Road communities. To avoid this outcome, the Commissioners must deny the GMP amendment. Acknowledging this extreme and radical departure from the type of development allowed under the GMP, approval of this project would provide a rationale for future too tall, too dense, irresponsible projects to continue to alter for the worse existing neighborhood character throughout Collier County. Should you see fit to approve the amendment notwithstanding the outcry from thousands of community residents, Collier planning staff, in considering the rezoning request, has recommended approval of the project but conditioned to make the buildings better fit the neighborhood. Staff proposes limiting the height of all four building to seventy-six feet. With a redesign option of the towers, setting back higher stories in a “wedding cake” fashion, staff would allow a height of one hundred and twenty-five feet (60% of the 208-ft request). Staff also recommends a front setback of 25-feet for all four buildings, rather than the 10-ft to 15-ft setback that the Stock plan is based on. Additionally, it recommends allowing a front setback of 15-feet for the two towers based upon a site plan redesign that provides retail services along Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive. Although the Naples Park Area Association, the Pelican Bay Property Owners Association, the Vanderbilt Beach Residents Association, Save Vanderbilt Beach, and other communities can support staff design conditions, given the transformative nature of the project even at the reduced scale, the better approach is to deny the project outright. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Dear Commissioners, First I want to thank you for your work on behalf of the citizens of Collier County. I want to voice my continued concern regarding the One Naples project. I feel it is not in line with other developments in the area. Pelican Bay development is not comparable to the Vanderbilt Beach community, as the setbacks were designed many years ago and it is one contiguous community as opposed to the beach area, which is a residential street. I do not wish to quash development, but I do want smart growth. One Naples is a bad precedent for our town. It will lead to many other developments of high density being approved, with will permanently alter the character of not just the immediate area around the project, but the whole community over time. I have always said I would never want to leave Naples when I retire, as my husband and I have built our life here in this community. However, I do not wish to live in a recreation of the towns on the east coast. People move to Naples to escape those! Why do we wish to destroy the very thing that makes people choose Naples as their home? It is not just the One Naples project by Stock that I oppose. As a Realtor in the area I have been a big supporter of Stock. For me this is nothing against just them. It is opposition to the continued waivers we hand out to developers - whether it be those building in the town or building in the expanding area out east. We can not continue this pace of growth and maintain the charming charter of our beloved Naples. Traffic gets worse each year, access to the beach by the public is made more difficult, and little by little our quality of life here slips away. I understand the tax revenue, employment, and economic stimulus concerns that are behind our need for growth. These are legitimate. However, I wish to caution against the outcome of continuing to give waivers to developers, be it for density, set backs, building height, or environmental in nature. It is changing our town and not for the better. If we continue to grow without a means to preserve what has made Naples such a special place to live, we will sow the seeds of our downfall. Those who have moved to Naples over the years have come for a reason. We have always been a special community. I oppose One Naples and the continued waivers of well established development guidelines for developers. We are not just "Saving Vanderbilt Beach" we are saving our town. I am including my previous letters that detail my reasons for opposition to One Naples for your review below. I implore you to consider your decision carefully in this matter.

LETTERS OF OPPOSITION TO ONE NAPLES - REASONS FOR OBJECTIONS: Opposition to One Naples - “Highest and best use” should not equate to maximum profits and high density I am writing in opposition to One Naples. I believe Collier County is headed in the wrong direction. If we give waiver after waiver to developers, then we really have no standards! I oppose the One Naples development, even with Stock’s latest revisions and wanted to share are my thoughts: I strongly oppose Stock’s One Naples and continued exceptions for developers. Setbacks and other zoning regulations have been relaxed lately and I don’t like the results. This project is another on the list of “letting it slide” and lack of enforcement of current long time zoning regulations. For first time in 20 years of living here I am thinking I may not stay in Naples when I retire. Naples is trending in a BAD direction. I am not alone in that opinion. Just because current zoning allows it does not make it in keeping with what has been built in the area. In my mind, there is a distinction between a project that is allowed and one that would be appropriate. We can make choices that affect population density and the overall feel of our community. “Highest and best use” should not equate to maximum profits and high density for the rest of us who live in Naples. I support growth that is in keeping with our goal as a community. If growth means we become a Mini- Boca, is that what we want to be? If we resign ourselves to MONEY RULES then eventually the even “the rich” end up on the wrong side of the equation! One thing Naples teaches us: no matter how rich you are, there is always someone who has more than you. Commissioner, what happens when it comes to your neighborhood??? As the saying goes “be careful what you wish for.” Again, I strongly oppose One Naples and continued exceptions for developers. I will rely on the words of others who can express the details of the issue better than me. Please consider voting against continued waivers to our building and development codes. Be mindful of the precedent you set and the underlying message it sends to the rest of the community. Respectfully, Ann Darwish REALTOR®, GRI, RSPS, SFR®, BPOR, ABR® Naples resident since 2000 ................................................................................................................................................ My Additional Signed Letter and agreement with the opposition letter below. As a Collier County Commissioner, I hope you are listening to the growing level of concern among North Naples residents opposed to the One Naples project, as proposed. What is the value of planning when you can arbitrarily change zoning and request variances that conflict with safety, rights and common sense? The hundreds of walkers from Naples Park, Beachwalk, Pavilion, etc. with chairs on their backs will wonder what happened, when people, not previously zoned, can simply cross the street to take their place at Vanderbilt Beach. One Naples will add more than 500 vehicles that will be forced to use local streets not built for traffic. Vanderbilt Beach Road east of 41 is being widened to six lanes and is being extended further east to the proposed 360,000 vehicle Rural Lands Service Area (RLSA) while west of 41 the two lanes can’t be widened. Please note that Emergency Services must pass through Vanderbilt Beach Road from Hammock Oak Drive. Furthermore, the county has built an expensive four-mile bike path, including bridges, north of Bluebill Avenue to Bonita Springs and you must use Vanderbilt Drive to access. Please consider these facts before deciding. Thank you.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. As a resident of the Trieste at Bay Colony, I am writing you today to state my opposition to the One Naples Development as currently proposed. The Trieste has 105 condominium units and has been in existence since 2001. Our building is located in Bay Colony within Pelican Bay. We are at the far north of Bay Colony bordering Vanderbilt Beach Road just east of the Ritz Carlton. The Trieste has been cited by the developer of One Naples as a comparable for the One Naples project because of our 20-story height. The focus on building height totally ignores many other characteristics that make the comparison completely inappropriate. As stated in the October 30, 2020 letter you received from Pelican Bay Foundation, “Pelican Bay was created years ago as a comprehensive, well-planned, mixed-use Planned Unit Development, and it is vastly different from the neighborhoods to our south, north, and east.” Specifically, in the case of the Trieste, our parking garage is set back about 85 feet from Vanderbilt Beach Road and, sitting on a 4.73 acre lot, our density is about 22 units per acre. By comparison, Naples One proposes a setback of only 15 feet from Vanderbilt Beach Road and a density that is about 50% higher than that of the Trieste. Most important, the Trieste dimensions are similar to those of the rest of the buildings in Bay Colony. In contrast, One Naples dwarfs the surrounding buildings in their neighborhood. The project is simply not compatible or consistent with the neighborhood by any reasonable criteria. When you also factor in the likely further overcrowding of Vanderbilt Beach, the significant increase in traffic, the added safety and evacuation risks and other adverse factors, it is clear why several thousand Collier County residents fiercely oppose the project. Finally, while I am not “ anti development” the precedent of allowing this type of zoning change can not be overstated. First there is the question as to whether such a zoning change that benefits one developer so much at the expense of the rest of the neighborhood is even legal in Florida. Finally, if One Naples is approved, what can stop the potential flood of similar requests by developers to build similar overcrowded facilities to the north up the Collier County coastline? In summary, I respectfully request that you deny the One Naples proposal as submitted. Thank you for taking the time to consider my position.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Collier County Commissioners, I am a resident of the Trieste condominium located within the Bay Colony Community of Pelican Bay and have been so for eleven years now. Quite candidly, I am surprised that the Trieste was permitted to be built so close to Vanderbilt Beach Road when first constructed in the late 1990s. It does loom a big large over most of our neighbors. At least there is a large set back from the road, extensive landscaping and a light at the intersection of Vanderbilt Drive and Vanderbilt Beach Road. And it does NOT mandate a bottleneck or constricted point. Over these past eleven years of living at the Trieste I have witnessed a steady increase in the amount of pedestrian, bicycle and vehicular traffic along these two roads. Sidewalks are narrow where they are present, which is not everywhere, and lumpy in places. Many families seek free parking outside the of county parking garage and push their strollers, pull their wagons and coolers and hold the hands of their elderly and children while walking towards the beach. They walk for exercise, to visit a few small local restaurants, to visit the beach and to view sunsets en masse. I encourage you to come and take a look around any day of the week at any time to see for yourself. My primary concern and driver for my opposition to the development of One Naples as currently proposed is safety. This area is a narrow corridor with many people at all hours of the day. It is also a drag strip late at night for fast car racers. It is also in a coastal high hazard area which portends the possible overload of traffic during evacuations. The addition of 172 additional residential units as planned for One Naples will only exacerbate an already dangerous situation. No one is guaranteed a view of the Gulf. We all know this. The Stock development as proposed seeks exemptions from far too many current permitting and growth management plan provisions, issues obviously at hand when Stock purchased the parcels of land on which to build their One Naples dream. The issue is context. The drawing Stock Development is showing of One Naples in the newspapers looking from south to north from the Bay Colony Contessa condominium to the LaPlaya Hotel and Beach Club is so very deceiving. This speaks volumes to me. Deceptive behavior bodes poorly for a well-received development. Look around the immediate area where Stock wants to build their One Naples. It dwarfs the immediate community. And a 35-foot tall wall abutting Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive with only a 15-foot setback is insulting. Please understand that I would like to see these parcels of land developed in context with our neighbors in Naples Park, Gulf Shore Drive and the Regatta. I recognize that Stock builds a good product. BUT I don’t believe that their current proposal is the solution. Please deny their current petition and ask that they go back to the drawing boards. Surely there are many more creative and responsible options available to them to consider. Your vote on March 1 will set a very important precedent with regard to growth management. I look to you for leadership to keep Naples a beautiful option to so many waterfront Florida cities where massive concrete towers prevail. Naples deserves better. Thank you for your work on behalf of the citizens of Naples, Florida. I am grateful to count myself amongst them.

Commissioner Taylor, My wife Ellie and I are writing again in continued opposition to the One Naples project. We have been regular visitors to Beachwalk and Vanderbilt Beach since 1987, homeowners since 2010, and full-time residents since 2018. Apart from the distressing increase in traffic that will occur on Vanderbilt Beach Road, we are even more upset by the overall density issues and lack of setbacks the development proposes. The corner of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive – and the beach – already exceed practical density, and that was with just a parking garage and public restroom. Adding five residential buildings and commercial space will ruin the neighborhood. Isn’t that the purpose for having the parcel not zoned for this kind of project? Please turn down One Naples as presented and require that Stock Development adhere to current zoning.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: On March 1 you and your fellow Commissioners will be hearing Stock Development’s application for One Naples. I am writing you today to express my strong opposition to the development as Stock has proposed it. I know full well that this development is not in our District, and that Commissioners generally tend to vote with the Commissioner in whose District the project lies. But, in this case I ask you to act independently. Residents of Commissioner Solis’ District have overwhelmingly shown their opposition. I know that you are aware of that as I know that you have received hundreds of emails telling you so. I believe that Commissioner Solis intends to vote in support of the Stock amendment to the Growth Management Plan. His reason for doing so is flawed. He feels that the neighborhood is not capable of understanding the nuances of the matter before you, and that he, alone, knows what is good for his District. When he tells people, “Be careful what you wish for.” he is saying that the residents of the affected neighborhood don’t know what they are asking. assure you that they do understand the ramifications of asking that Stock respect the existing C-3 zoning. One Naples is not simply a District 2 issue. Its approval would send a message that it’s “business as usual,” and that the “Miamification” of Collier County will continue. That must stop! I am asking you to vote to deny Stock’s proposed amendment to the Growth Management Plan I along with hundreds of others will be there on March 1st to support you in making the right decision.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor, My name is Laura Simmelink, and I’m writing as a full-time resident of Collier County to express my opposition to One Naples, the Stock Development project on Vanderbilt Beach Drive. Basically, the project as currently proposed is not aligned with the character of our Collier County coastal neighborhoods or the preferences of our community. As you are aware, this will set a precedent for future development, and I believe it will irrevocably change the character of Collier County. Is the increased tax revenue from the proposed project enough of an advantage for Collier County Commissioners to approve the project as it stands? I cannot think of any other benefit to our community, other than that additional revenue. If there are other positive outcomes, I am unaware of them. Is it worth it to irrevocably change the character of our community — immediately and in the future? This project will increase density, reduce live-ability, reduce the beauty of our community, and reduce road safety for pedestrians, bikers, and drivers, among other negative outcomes. I support a project with: - significantly lower structure height - fewer residences - significantly greater setbacks - not gifting the developer the roads and other publicly-owned space As you make decisions about this project, please bear in mind that you represent the public. And that the way you vote will affect our community permanently. Generations from now, people who reside in and visit Collier County will experience the legacy of your vote on this project.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioners Taylor, LoCastro, McDaniel, Saunders, and Solis: I write to emphasize a dispositive legal argument that prohibits Stock Development’s proposed One Naples project. Stock’s proposal constitutes unlawful Spot Zoning. As some of you are fellow litigators (I have been practicing for 42 years), I am hopeful that the controlling Florida case law and statutes described herein concerning Spot Zoning will resonate with you. Spot Zoning is the elephant in the room, as it condemns Stock’s proposed development. The Florida Supreme Court prohibited Spot Zoning in Parking Facilities v. City of Miami Beach, 88 So.2d 141 (1956). The Florida legislature codified this prohibition in Florida Statutes, Section 163.3194(3)(a). The prohibition is further codified in Policy 5.6 of the Future Land Use Element of the Collier County Growth Management Plan. Spot Zoning is the name given to the piecemeal rezoning of small parcels of land to a greater density, leading to disharmony with the surrounding area. Spot Zoning gives preferential treatment to one parcel at the expense of the zoning scheme as a whole. See Southwest Ranches Homeowners Assoc. v. Broward County, 502 So.2d 931, 935 (Fla. 4th DCA 1987). Unlawful Spot Zoning creates a small island of property with restrictions on its use different from that of surrounding properties, solely for the benefit of a particular property owner and to the detriment of the community or without a substantial public purpose. Allapattah Community Ass’n Inc. of Florida v. City of Miami, 379 So.2d 387 (Fla. 3d DCA 1980); City Commissioner of the City of Miami v. Woodlawn Park Cemetery Co., 553 So.2d 1227, 1240 (Fla. 3d DCA 1989). The determination of Spot Zoning involves an examination of (1) the size of the spot; (2) the compatibility with the surrounding area; (3) the benefit to the owner and (4) the detriment to the immediate neighborhood. Parking facilities, Inc. v. City of Miami Beach, 88 So.2d 141 (Fla. 1956); Dade County v. Inversiones Rafamar S.A., 360 So.2d 1130 (Fla. 3d DCA 1978). In its proposal, Stock asks, solely in respect to its parcel, for (1) density that is double the density allowed by the current zoning law, (2) building heights that are double to triple the permissible building heights, (3) open space that is half of that required by the current zoning law, and (4) setbacks that are one-quarter of the setbacks currently required. Stock’s proposal is incompatible and inconsistent with, and in no way complementary to, the comprehensive plan, the current zoning rules, and the pertinent surrounding neighborhood. It seeks to create an impermissible “square peg” of land in an incompatible “round hole” community, to the great harm of, and with no benefit to, the entire community, for the sole benefit of the developer. Stock’s proposal is the poster child for unlawful Spot Zoning. Stock cannot properly rely on nearby properties in neighboring zones such as Bay Colony or Pelican Bay to create a purported compatibility that does not exist. Allowing comparisons with properties in other zones would impermissibly import a neighboring zone’s rules into a zone that has different zoning rules, just because it is nearby. Plainly, that would make Florida zoning laws meaningless. In Machado v. Musgrave, 519 So. 2d 629 (3d Dist. 1987), the court prohibited such a comparison, holding that “a comprehensive land plan legislatively sets a zoning norm for each zone,” not a single piece of property. One of the reasons for this rule, said the Machado court: “to avoid spot zoning.” Id. Collier County Land Development Code (“LDC”) Section 1.05.01F confirms this point. It provides: “Each zoning district has its own purpose and establishes its own density and intensity regulations.” Pelican Bay and Bay Colony provide particularly poor comparisons to the Vanderbilt Beach neighborhood in issue here, as they are vastly different communities with vastly different regulatory controls and restraints. Not surprisingly, the law does not allow Stock to avoid the Florida prohibition on Spot Zoning by separately seeking an amendment to the Growth Management Plan (“GMP”) that addresses only Stock’s parcel. As the Court in Machado explained, the prohibition on permitting a GMP amendment for a single piece of property “is the only way to (1) regulate and maintain land use by zones; (2) make individual zoning changes . . . conform to a legislated plan; and (3) avoid arbitrary spot zoning change that permits the use of individual parcels to depart from a plan.” Florida Statute 163.3194(1) confirms this point, providing that amending the GMP can only be done “as to the area of the entire zone,” not a single piece of property within the zone as sought by Stock. Indeed, the Court in Machado explained that under Section 163, local comprehensive plans “are not zoning laws.” They are “a limitation on a local governments . . . zoning powers.” Moreover, LDC Section 9.04.03 allows a zoning variance only if it is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land. Stock’s proposal plainly does not satisfy that requirement. Importantly, the stakes here are far bigger that the One Naples project currently in issue. If the Commissioners permit Stock’s current proposal to proceed, the Commissioners may render themselves powerless to stop the next project, and the next one after that, going north on Gulf Shore Drive. Currently, there is nothing in the neighborhood comparable to One Naples. So Spot Zoning flatly prohibits Stock’s proposal. But if the Commissioners allow One Naples to proceed, the next developer on Gulf Shore Drive will use One Naples as a comparable, and the Commissioners may have no principled basis for stopping that next proposal, and the next one, and the one after that. Right here, right now, the Commissioners will be condemning the Vanderbilt Beach and surrounding neighborhoods if they approve One Naples as currently proposed. Stock’s requested variances would benefit only Stock and would disregard entirely the rights of the residents of the area and the general public. Stock’s proposal would not create any resources useful to or needed by those who live in the area. To the contrary, the proposed development would do nothing more than accomplish an arbitrary, capricious, unlawful, and uncompensated wealth transfer of property from the thousands of residents who built and enjoyed their neighborhood over many decades and relied on the integrity of the current zoning rules, to a single developer. Indeed, in the face of the crescendo of community opposition to Stock’s proposal and the Planning Commission Staff’s recommendation against Stock’s proposal in its current form, the Collier County Planning Commissioners declined to approve Stock’s proposal. Nor can Stock plausibly claim that it would be unfair to deny its requested zoning variances. A developer who purchases land subject to existing zoning limitations accepts the risk that the limitations will remain in place. Stock knew when it purchased the land that its proposed project is prohibited by the zoning rules currently in force. The Planning Commission Staff Report dated September 24, 2020 agreed in 20 places that Stock’s proposal is incompatible and inconsistent with the Growth Management Plan. The Staff opined that Stock’s project could be approved only if its scope is dramatically reduced to comply with the current requirements for height, density and setbacks. Importantly, Florida Courts give no deference to the Commissioners’ judgment where Spot Zoning is in issue, because it is an issue of law. As explained in Machado, a court must review de novo, and with “strict scrutiny,” not deference, the Commissioners’ decision. A reviewing court would surely find Stock’s proposal to be prohibited, unlawful Spot Zoning. Attached hereto is a copy of an October 12, 2020 letter by my former law partner, Michael Austin, who represents a fellow member of the opposition to Stock’s proposed development, Ken Melkus. In his letter, Mr. Austin amplifies on the law of Spot Zoning and agrees that Stock’s proposed project constitutes unlawful Spot Zoning. As you consider Stock’s proposal, please be guided by your sacred duty to protect the residents of these communities. A tasteful, modest development of appropriate scale, consistent and compatible with current zoning requirements, can be an enhancement to the area. But allowing Stock to undertake a project with anything close to the currently proposed scope would impermissibly inflict substantial damage to the people that the Commissioners are duty bound to protect. Stock is asking the Commissioners to allow Stock to break the law. Under Florida law, Stock’s request must be rejected. Respectfully, William P.

Dear Penny, We are property owners at 476 Pine Avenue in the Vanderbilt Beach neighborhood and have read with horror the proposed plan for One Naples. Frankly, it is baffling how such a monstrous development proposal could have advanced this far. The massive size and height of the proposed buildings would not only make a congested area virtually impassible, but are completely out of character for the neighborhood! It is no consolation whatsoever that Stock's previous ridiculous plan has been scaled back to be slightly less ridiculous.

One Naples Date:Monday, March 1, 2021 11:14:49 AM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source. Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear honorable County Commission: As a resident with interest in my neighborhood, and watching online the One Naples hearing today, it occurs that the proposal eliminates street parking and unofficial parking in common use on the property for decades without providing for replacement of that parking. Neither is the County parking garage adequate, as evidenced in the presentation illustrating cars backed up to enter the garage. In summary, a public parking garage must be included in the proposal. The long winded presentation does not adequately address the community needs of parking. Traffic lights move the public traffic more efficiently through the area but does not replace lost parking.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Commissioners: My wife and I live in Pelican Bay, right adjacent to Vanderbilt Beach Road. The proposed Stock project would really destroy our neighborhood. As you know, in sum: 1. Both during construction and during occupancy, it would massively increase the already significant traffic on Vanderbilt Beach Road. Sound and congestion will be a real hit to the quality of life. 2. The size and density is inconsistent with the area. It is more similar to Miami Beach. Most of us chose Naples precisely to void that ambiance. We have gotten our children and friends to look and buy here in Naples because it is unique. 3. Stock is doing the usual game of proposing a massive project and then trying to appear reasonable by “tweaking” it by “concessions.” But the basic concept remains unsound given he neighborhood. The basic concept of huge building, shopping, and marina will bring lots of people, noise, traffic and change the character of the area. Boating will become congested and noisier. 4. There will be and “spillover” effects of traffic on nearby streets and neighborhoods . People will cut through neighborhoods to try to avoid the congestion. 5. Have no illusion: you will be setting a precedent, which will be used to justify ever more enormous projects. 6. I am not anti-growth at all. But growth has to be smart growth. This will depress not enhance property values. Good projects can be built –on the right locations. I am not one to obsess over every little change. But this is a watershed, and I urge you not to approve the One Naples project. Thanks for listening. Clifford D.

As a resident of multiple homes in north Naples, I find it abhorrent that our commissioners would disregard the will of the residents and approve the OneNaples project. All change is not good and this is a clear example of an urban renewal initiative that is being driven by contractor greed. At a time when there is so little respect for government, it makes us wonder if the contractor was promised approval before making the offer for the land.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Honorable Board of Commissioners, My wife and I are retired and have homesteaded our residence at Vanderbilt Beach. We now find ourselves part of the David and Goliath battle of developer vs neighbors. We continue to try to help Stock Development improve this small area but within a semblance of legally established zoning rules, building codes, local guidelines and community norms. Mr. Stock seems to believe he is politically secure in his ability to ignore these same rules, codes and norms. The outcome will affect everyone, as decisions made now will set precedent for future development and have permanent repercussions on the entire region. These conflicts are almost always won by the Goliaths of the world but this time it must be different. To be clear, owners and residents have advised Brian Stock that measured development is needed and welcome. However, we have also strongly advised Mr. Stock that too much concentrated development can do more harm than good. The plan as presented disregards rules and codes arrived at over decades of thoughtful planning and trial and error - a story repeated in too many other parts of Florida with very bad outcomes. The beauty and grace that is Collier is already threatened by over-development. Once Stock succeeds here, his new rules, codes and standards will forever be applied throughout the Collier county region. The massive development is not supported by planning reviews nor steadily growing numbers in and close to the impact zone. It is one developer imposing a version of progress in spite of neighbor best and thoughtful input on how best to develop yet keep this little corner of SW Florida attractive and desirable. If not careful, Collier will begin to mimic places like Miami and Ft Lauderdale with the same over-growth and population issues and real potential to become an inadvertent host to micro- disasters when such as a virus attacks. And what of the lingering but potent problem of RED TIDE and other health issues made worse by over-population? Leaders must know when to say "STOP" or one day we may wake up to a ready-made disaster with nowhere to escape. Enjoyment will have already been long gone. My wife and I are asking you to insist that Brian Stock comply already, and not create a path for others to invade with massive overdevelopment as has undermined other formerly beautiful parts of Florida. Ask yourselves what is best in the long run for current and future constituents? We have seen the future in other parts of Florida and the attendant problems associated with such over- development. Indeed, many that live here now escaped from other parts of Florida for the very same reasons. This has been a place for healthy and vibrant communities to thrive. If history can serve as a warning, this proposed construction overreach portends a giant step toward a disastrous future.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: Thank you for all the information in your newsletters regarding covid vaccines. Well done! Switching gears now to One Naples - I am a resident of Vanderbilt Beach in District 2. One Naples is wrong for Vanderbilt Beach and wrong for Collier County. It is wrong for Collier County to be giving Stock more than $4.3 million in land value through gifting him roadways so that he can violate dozens of our zoning and growth Management plan regulations. Its wrong to set this precedent by allowing Stock and future developers to totally obliterate the intent of the County’s Growth Management plan, Zoning Code, and Coastal Management Guidelines. The approval of One Naples, as proposed, will show that it’s business as usual in Collier County, with unbridled growth, and little or no consideration of current taxpayer and residents’ desires. Thank you for your consideration. Please vote No on One Naples.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Collier County Commissioners: We are sending this email to formally request the Collier County Board of Commissioners to approve the proposed residential development at Vanderbilt Beach known as One Naples by Stock Development. We have been visiting Collier County every year since 1986 and have owned property since 2001. We are now and have been full time permanent residents in Collier County since 2005. We kindly request your support for this project for reasons that include: 1. The condition of the properties at this location has been an eyesore for too many years. This area of Collier County draws more residents and tourists due to its proximity to the beach so it should be the county's highest priority to improve it. 2. We have reviewed the renderings prepared of the proposed development and believe this amenity will increase the value of the neighboring residential buildings. 3. There are existing taller buildings within the immediate area so it will fit in nicely to its surroundings. 4. Traffic flow and pedestrian/bicycle safety will be enhanced (Ralph is a local civil engineer and therefore qualified to make this statement). 5. If the zoning change to allow this residential development is not approved, a commercial development will likely be constructed that will bring more traffic than a residential development. We believe this is not an appropriate location for more offices, restaurants, etc. 6. We believe Stock Development has done their homework and listened to the community as evidenced by the significant compromises it has made from its original proposals. 7. Our understanding of the concerns made by the vocal naysayer group is clear on only one point - NOT IN MY BACKYARD (NIMBY)! Thank you for your consideration of our request and thank you for your service to our community. Respectfully, Ralph and Dorothy L.

Penny Taylor, PLEASE VOTE YES FOR ONE NAPLES! I have owned a condo at Regatta Condominiums for 20 years and have hoped for someone to come along and clean up the eyesore to the west of me. When it was announced that Stock had purchased the parcel, I was elated! I immediately requested a meeting to see what was planned. Brian Stock and his assistant Keith met with me and shared to overview. What a beautiful project. I then called a buddy who does virtual reality, to see the impact of my view. Virtually no change. I only have one kitchen window that faces west. Yes, I will see the building from that window, but no others. In fact, in all units in 400 flagship, only 2 stacks will have their kitchen window impacted slightly. The 02 and 03 stack. NO other units will even see One Naples from their Lanai. I have been harassed by fellow owners who live in buildings 2, 3, 4 and 5 to support their efforts to stop this development. They have treated to make life rough if I do not fall in line. What kind of world is this? This cancel culture must stop. These owners complain about everything. My only concern is traffic. Right now, it is very difficult in season to exit Regatta. Stock has offered to look into a Vanderbilt Drive exit for us. This would be a awesome solution. Scott L. Klabunde CEO EVamped LLC 400 Flagship Drive #1103 Naples, FL 34110 Sent from Yahoo Mail.

Good afternoon Commissioner Taylor, I write this letter to you in support of the One Naples project proposed for the Vanderbilt Beach area. I believe it will be a positive addition to the area and will greatly improve land that has been in poor condition for many years. This would be the best option to keep traffic to a minimum in the area versus the congestion that would be caused by a commercial area or shopping center on that land. I believe in responsible growth for Collier County and I think this project is the right choice for area beautification and minimal community impacts. I understand that you will be voting on Monday to decide whether this project will be allowed to proceed as planned. I ask that you please take my commentary into consideration and vote Yes for One Naples. Thank you for your time!

Collier County Planning Commission Board of County Commissioners Re: Proposed One Naples project Dear Commission and Commissioners: The Pelican Bay Foundation (Foundation) recognizes and values the importance of redevelopment to maintain property values and the quality of life in our community. We appreciate both the multiple and complex considerations of the criteria provided for in the land development code, the comprehensive plan amendments, the rezoning requests, etc., and, further, respect the concerns, objections, or support, of various community interest groups, individuals, or businesses. The Foundation expressly neither supports nor opposes the proposed One Naples project. In fact, we appreciate the open communication with which Stock Development has approached this proposed project. However, because properties within Pelican Bay have been cited as compatibility justifications for the One Naples project, the Foundation believes it has an obligation to clarify how Pelican Bay differs from the area to the north of Vanderbilt Drive since it is not part of Pelican Bay. Pelican Bay was created years ago as a comprehensive, well-planned, mixed-use Planned Unit Development, and it is vastly different from the neighborhoods to our south, north, and east. The planning, the PUD regulations and the applicable private declarations and covenants that govern Pelican Bay and have controlled its development include a myriad of factors, controls, constraints and planning techniques to regulate and manage development. The allowance of high-rise construction and mixed-use development are regulated and controlled by multiple different and important factors and controls. To compare only height in Pelican Bay to other areas, without also considering the overall planning and multiple other constraints that apply to Pelican Bay, seems like selective cherry picking. It is not an apt comparison. For example, the maximum height of principal structures within the Pelican Bay PUD is two hundred (200) feet above finished grade, provided that minimum yards must be maintained, from tract or development parcel lines, right-of-way lines and/or the edge of the gutter of a private road, of fifty (50) feet or one-half (1/2) the height of the structure, whichever is greater. Simply stated, Pelican Bay is a well-planned, well-organized and well-run large-scale development that should not be compared or used in a comparative analysis to justify any position (for or against) relative to development outside of its jurisdictional boundaries unless the entire Pelican Bay regulatory scheme of controls and constraints are similarly included. We wish you well in your deliberations of the value and appropriateness of the proposed One Naples project for the Vanderbilt Beach neighborhood.

Commissioner Taylor- The protections afforded the public by the County’s GMP and Zoning Laws lose their effectiveness and start becoming obsolete, in a system that continuously permits special approvals, variances, and exceptions by a mere BCC vote of 3-2 or 4-1. These types of variances and exceptions have now become commonplace, in spite of the public’s’ overwhelming demand to have the Developers and BCC strictly abide by the terms and conditions set forth in the County’s GMP and Zoning Laws. Such an arbitrary and subjective approval system, that continuously disregards the laws meant to protect the public and Collier County’s neighborhoods, leads to the possibility of a few powerful players being able to skillfully formulate the narrative and the marketing to have the greatest input and impact on a small number, i.e., just FIVE (5), decision-makers. If a Powerful Developer is able to influence the decision-makers by alleging that certain neighbors immediately adjacent to its proposed development, which is not in compliance with the GMP or Zoning Laws, have suddenly changed their previous opposition to the developers’ project and are now supportive and writing glowing letters to the decision-makers), the question that begs to be asked is, “What caused the change of mind?” The answer to such a question is what decision-makers should ask to have a FULL, COMPLETE and TRANSPARENT understanding of whether and how, in fact, such support may have been obtained by the Powerful Developer. If, as is being alleged, the Developer (directly or indirectly initiated or responded) to a quid- pro-quo from a certain small but vocal number of individuals, and has, in fact, promised to undertake significant and costly maintenance, repairs, replacements or additions to their adjacent building or buildings, then such must be made public and the decision-makers must know that such EXCHANGE OF VALUABLE SERVICES FOR SUPPORT translates into the Developer rewarding a few while the majority of the neighbors not engaged in or benefiting from the quid-pro-quo pay the price of possibly having an unwanted Behemoth Development Project next door. So, the next time you receive a letter from one of the sixty (60) owners of Barefoot Pelican COA, please inquire whether they have negotiated a benefit from the Developer and then ask yourselves if the voice of those few who benefit from the Developers’ largess should drown out the voice of the other 800 plus neighbors that are in opposition to the Developer’s project.

Ray, I find it difficult to believe that the staff does not know, years into this application, what the answers are to my questions. I assume they would’ve been fundamental questions addressed at the onset of the application. If the applicants assertions as to the entitlement density or intensity are incorrect, then all of their analysis are incorrect; additionally, as the applicant does not own the .74 acres of road right of way, I would believe that that would be a fundamental matter to be raised during the review process, so that the applicants acreage for purposes of calculating usage would be based upon 4.7+ or minus acres. I would submit that the applicant Should be asked by county staff, in a RAI, to respond to and address the questions that I have raised, prior to the staff preparing any staff report. This project has the potential to have significant adverse impact to the surrounding established residential neighborhoods, and I believe it is appropriate for staff to ask these hard questions of the applicant prior to preparing a staff report.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Yikes. You said we have to remain vigilant. Then you outline all the group activities where food is involved and thus masks are removed. I am appalled. Leslie Springman On Dec 10, 2020, at 4:00 PM, Collier County District 4 Commissioner Penny Taylor <penny.taylor@colliercountyfl.gov> wrote: As we approach the end of 2020, it is an understatement to say that this hasbeen quite a year. The COVID-19 pandemic has shaped and colored many of theCounty decisions we have had to make. In many instances, these were toughdecisions because there is simply no rule book to follow. We started, on March, 3, 2020 to title our newsletters: COVID-19 Bulletin #.... because of Governor’s declaration of a State of Emergency due to the COVID-19virus. It was our hope that by the end of 2020, the pandemic would be mostlybehind us, and the Governor’s State of Emergency lifted. Instead, we see our COVID numbers steadily increasing. The bright hope is avaccine already being distributed in Great Britain and Canada. But, as I learnedtoday, even with a vaccine, we need to stay vigilant and practice social distancingand masking until the distribution of the vaccine is widespread in the UnitedStates. Dr. Fauci announced today that he is hopeful that by the Fall of 2021,things just might return back to some degree of normalcy. And so, we are going to make one small change in our newsletters, becauseCOVID-19, for now, is a fact of life in our world. We will still publish ournewsletters, and we still will have up-to-date information about County businessand the virus updates and most importantly the progress wethe Countyis making in addressing the challenges of COVID-19. But we simply drop thetitle: "COVID-19 Bulletin # …" and publish our newsletters by date. So, on that note, here is our District 4 Newsletter, December 10, 2020!

On Dec 10, 2020, at 3:59 PM, Collier County District 4 Commissioner Penny Taylor <penny.taylor@colliercountyfl.gov> wrote: As we approach the end of 2020, it is an understatement to say that this hasbeen quite a year. The COVID-19 pandemic has shaped and colored many of theCounty decisions we have had to make. In many instances, these were toughdecisions because there is simply no rule book to follow. We started, on March, 3, 2020 to title our newsletters: COVID-19 Bulletin #.... because of Governor’s declaration of a State of Emergency due to the COVID-19virus. It was our hope that by the end of 2020, the pandemic would be mostlybehind us, and the Governor’s State of Emergency lifted. Instead, we see our COVID numbers steadily increasing. The bright hope is avaccine already being distributed in Great Britain and Canada. But, as I learnedtoday, even with a vaccine, we need to stay vigilant and practice social distancingand masking until the distribution of the vaccine is widespread in the UnitedStates. Dr. Fauci announced today that he is hopeful that by the Fall of 2021,things just might return back to some degree of normalcy. And so, we are going to make one small change in our newsletters, becauseCOVID-19, for now, is a fact of life in our world. We will still publish ournewsletters, and we still will have up-to-date information about County businessand the virus updates and most importantly the progress wethe County ismaking in addressing the challenges of COVID-19. But we simply drop the title: "COVID-19 Bulletin # …" and publish our newsletters by date. So, on that note, here is our District 4 Newsletter, December 10, 2020!

I enjoy receiving both your newsletter and Commissioner Solis’ newsletters. You have been our advocates since Covid began and I know we would be in a far worse position, like cities in the east coast, if not for your stand. I know you have taken slack and insults but thank you for thinking of your neighbors. Sadly I know businesses I will never enter again as I have seen the lack of masks and that is my right. Thankfully a lot of businesses listened and are working to keep people safe. You are a gift to our community. I wish you all the best as despite Covid we are still staying safe! I hope 2021 sees a better year but this year has been a gift as I have learned even more about our community. Most good but some Grinches. Warmest wishes, Patty Wheeler Ave Maria Sent from my iPhone On Dec 10, 2020, at 4:00 PM, Collier County District 4 Commissioner Penny Taylor <penny.taylor@colliercountyfl.gov> wrote: As we approach the end of 2020, it is an understatement to say that this hasbeen quite a year. The COVID-19 pandemic has shaped and colored many of theCounty decisions we have had to make. In many instances, these were toughdecisions because there is simply no rule book to follow. We started, on March, 3, 2020 to title our newsletters: COVID-19 Bulletin #.... because of Governor’s declaration of a State of Emergency due to the COVID-19virus. It was our hope that by the end of 2020, the pandemic would be mostlybehind us, and the Governor’s State of Emergency lifted. Instead, we see our COVID numbers steadily increasing. The bright hope is avaccine already being distributed in Great Britain and Canada. But, as I learnedtoday, even with a vaccine, we need to stay vigilant and practice social distancingand masking until the distribution of the vaccine is widespread in the UnitedStates. Dr. Fauci announced today that he is hopeful that by the Fall of 2021,things just might return back to some degree of normalcy. And so, we are going to make one small change in our newsletters, becauseCOVID-19, for now, is a fact of life in our world. We will still publish ournewsletters, and we still will have up-to-date information about County businessand the virus updates and most importantly the progress wethe Countyis making in addressing the challenges of COVID-19. But we simply drop thetitle: "COVID-19 Bulletin # …" and publish our newsletters by date. So, on that note, here is our District 4 Newsletter, December 10, 2020!

My husband and I have noticed that so many more are wearing the masks now in our area. We are use to it at this point and comfortable to spend money in Collier County. Having said that, we do avoid the areas that do not have a mask mandate and therefore do not spend our money in those areas. Thank you again!

The Department of Health (DOH) - Collier County continues to work to expandour reach of vaccine clinics and vaccine distribution across the County underthe guidance of the Governor’s Executive Order and Health Advisory. This effort includes leveraging community partners, community health workersand health educators to identify, estimate and provide outreach to ensurehealth equity in COVID-19 vaccine distribution and to help target underservedcommunities or those disproportionately affected by COVID-19. Vaccination isoffered multiple days a week. The primary vaccination site is currently maintained through DOH-Collier,Collier County Emergency Management, Emergency Medical Services (EMS),Collier County Fire, Collier County Sheriff’s Office, Healthcare Network ofSouthwest Florida, and Collier County Parks. In addition to the primary vaccination site in North Collier Regional Park, thereare multiple vaccination efforts maintained by local partnerships. For a list ofadditional vaccination sites visit floridahealthcovid19.gov/. Highlights of partnerships and successes: Partnerships with DOH, EMS, North Collier Fire, City of Naples Fire, andMarco Fire to target 65+ in local communities, health care workers,independent living facilities, people with disabilities, and underservedcommunities This includes local communities and organizations with homeowner associations, low income residents, subsidized housing, rental communities, mobile homes, homebound, special needs clients, group homes and HUD residential areas. Partnerships with faith-based organizations, leadership of churches,synagogues, temples, volunteer, nonprofit and community-based organizationsthat serve seniors to identify individuals who meet criteria for vaccination andcoordinate vaccination. DOH-Collier has developed and shared a local process with organizations and communities that have interest in supporting these efforts. These organizations are providing support to local seniors for reserving appointments for the COVID 19 vaccination. - Among this group are the vulnerable and frail elderly, as well as thoseseniors who do not have the capacity, for one reason or another, to usetechnology, may be having difficulty with scheduling and who may be unable totransport to the vaccine sites. Examples of organizations include: - Faith-based organizations in underserved or rural areas and who serveminority groups - Naples Senior Center, Wounded Warriors, Greater Naples Leadership, andParkinson’s association Partnerships with local hospitals for vaccinating health care worker staff andpeople under 65 that are deemed extremely vulnerable per the GovernorsExecutive Order.

HELPING OUR SENIORS GET THE COVID 19 VACCINEHOW YOU CAN HELP The Leadership of Churches, Synagogues, Temples and faith-based communityorganizations serving seniors are getting many calls from frustrated seniorsbecause they are unsuccessful in securing a reservation to receive the COVID 19vaccination. Among this group are the vulnerable and frail elderly, as well asthose seniors who do not have the capacity, for one reason or another, touse technology. We are continuing to work with our community partners including county andhealth care providers to expand the reach of vaccine clinics and vaccinedistribution across Collier County under the guidance of the Governor’sExecutive Order. DOH-Collier is currently using an appointment-based system as vaccinesupplies are received. They will continue to modify the process per the needs ofthe community and feedback. Criteria: Must fall under the current Executive Order of those who are 65+ Individual agencies may choose to designate “at risk” groups within the parameters of the Executive Order - Not able to use technology or no access to technology Process: The leadership of the faith-based communities and any organizations serving seniors, will reach out to the seniors that fall under the above criteria. The agency understands that they are responsible for client contact, completion of registration, and serves as a point of contact for scheduling of the second dose. The full name and email address are required for a vaccine reservation - If the senior has no technology, the volunteer filling out the senior’s name must use their email address. The Florida Department of Health in Collier County has no current set schedule of when the vaccine will arrive. - DOH-Collier will be in contact with volunteers with instructions and next steps how to utilize the scheduling system. The senior or the senior’s representative (volunteer) will fill out the name and email address of the senior at this time. A ticket will be sent to the registration email address confirming the date and time of the vaccination clinic. - The ticket should be printed for each person registered and that each person receiving a vaccine must provide some form of i.d. and/or FL residency. A consent form is required and can be provided in advance from the Department of Health or the senior must fill it out at the vaccination site (no health insurance information is needed). ***Please note that the only State registered DOH-Collier site forvaccine clinics, currently is North Collier Regional Park. This is adrive-thru vaccination clinic and the leadership will be responsiblefor transportation if the senior cannot drive.

The PBPOA email below says it all. It is wrong for Vanderbilt Beach. It is wrong for Collier County and it is wrong to vote against the clearly STRONG message being given by the residents of not just Vanderbilt Beach, but all of Collier county. It is wrong for Collier County to be giving Stock almost $4,000,000 in land value by vacating the roads and giving them to Stock so that he can violate dozens of our zoning and Growth Management plan regulations. It is wrong to set this precedent by allowing Stock to totally obliterate the county’s Growth Management Plan, Zoning Code and Coastal Management Guidelines. It is wrong to not listen to the will of the tax paying constituents. It is wrong for taxpayers to have to raise/pay over $100,000 to just ask our Commissioners to enforce the laws that are already in place. Why does this happen? The One Naples project should have been denied at the planning department and never even gotten to this stage by just enforcing the laws already in place. I don’t think that is too much to ask of our elected officials. The RIGHT thing to do is for every Commissioner to VOTE TO DENY the changes requested by Stock development. It is the only responsible answer and I hope we can count on your support. George Marks 319 Lagoon Ave Naples, FL 34108 215-870-5543 From: Pelican Bay Property Owners Association <pbpoa@pbpropertyowners.org> Sent: Tuesday, December 1, 2020 9:45 PM To: George <gemarks7@gmail.com> Subject: It's about the will... The Will of The Stock The wrong One Naples decision made today will have a century of consequences, mostly bad, for Collier County residents to live with daily. That's a long time to suffer! So, why then is One Naples such a tough decision for our Commissioners? Thousands of Collier County residents oppose One Naples as evidenced by the petitioners (2,769 unique names), hundreds of telephone calls, thousands of E- mails and over 20,000 letters to the Collier County Commissioners of which we are aware and/or initiated. Why does it appear that thousands of Collier County citizens' voices are falling on deaf ears and one voice (Stock’s) is being heard, when they are clearly wrong in trying to violate dozens of codes, covenants and rules? <!--[if !vml]-- ><!--[endif]--> Stock Development has gotten themselves into a $25,000,000 mess and is trying to have Collier County bail them out. They have had many successful projects. This likely is not one of them, and it's not our (Collier County citizens) obligation to fix it at taxpayer’s expense. If "The Will of the People" to whom the Commissioners are pledged to serve prevails and not "The Will of the Stock," EVERY Commissioner should vote to reject One Naples. "It's not who's right, it's what's right." It is wrong in so many ways and the purest example of a developer throwing his/her money and muscle around for his/her own benefit. Collier citizens are the ones who will be severely negatively affected, as will those who won't even be born for another 30, 40, 50 or more years and beyond! The below comment from Collier County Planning Commissioner, Paul Shea, is taken word for word from the November 7th, 2020 edition of the Naples Daily News: “Paul Shea, the other commissioner who voted against recommending approval, said he didn't know how he could support the project, ignoring the thousands of letters and notes he'd received against it. In his mind, he said, it's the board's duty to help manage the growth in the county based on the county's growth management plan, which currently doesn't allow such an intense development on the site. <!--[if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->Changes to the growth management plan, Shea argued, should be made when they benefit the community, which can be hard to measure at times, especially in this situation when so many neighbors are against the project. "To me, I don't think it's our role to go into a community like that and tell them what's best for them," he said. Now contrast that comment/quote with the following comment/'quote from Collier Collier Planning Commissioner, Paul Schmitt. “The real issue, Schmitt said, is what can be built that makes financial sense and creates a reasonable rate of return. He pointed out that developers don't build projects to "not make any money." "That's why they get into the development business," he said. One Commissioner, Paul Shea, listened and responded with his vote to the thousands of citizens of Collier County who voiced their opposition the One Naples Project as proposed. AND One Commissioner, Joe Schmitt, listened to or heard, as may be the case, only the voice of Stock Development as his expressed only concern, per the above statement, and verbalized that his sole concern is Stock Development's financial well being. He has expressed absolutely no sympathy or support for the residents, citizens, people who sent him thousands of communication opposing One Naples and requesting his "no" vote. This is exactly why people do not trust government. When self-serving and/or personal opinions, and/or influences often based on personal relationships transcend or appear to transcend the "will of the people," the PEOPLE have every right to object and to be outraged that their collective voices were ignored for the benefit of one voice. In January, 2021, The Board of Collier County Commissioners will address the One Naples Project and a final vote will be taken. There are five (5) Commissioners. Contact them, their emails addresses and phone numbers are below; make YOUR voice heard on this ridiculous project. Together we can make our collective will, the "Will of the People" prevail. Mark E.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioners, I have reviewed the revised submission as of this date by Stock Development for the One Naples Project. I do applaud his attempt to make this project more consistent with the neighborhood and reduce the negative impact on traffic, views, and general aesthetics. However, as a neighborhood resident I find the revisions are far short of what needs to be changed to make this project compatible with the neighborhood. I do not have the expertise to evaluate the traffic plan but I clearly can envision the height, setback, and density as proposed. This project is simply still too massive in scale, buildings of too great a height, setbacks inadequate, and density too high. I believe every landowner has a right to develop their property within the confines of existing zoning. Any changes the municipality grants from that criteria should clearly be in the best interests of the neighborhood. In my opinion this plan does not meet that criteria and I urge you to continue to require Stock to revise down height and density while increasing setbacks. Do not be swayed by the argument that this plan is better than 100.000 sqft of commercial space. The reality of existing zoning is that much of it is uneconomical and only a low rise small scale project, (which would be appropriate for the neighborhood) would be economically viable.

From: Full Name Patrick McCaffery Email:pmmccaff@comcast.net Type a question ONE NAPLES GMP and PUD Rezone blanks:34108 Dear Commissioner, The ONE NAPLES growth plan amendment and rezone will be coming up for your review and action very soon. I respectfully ask that you ‘really’ listen to the expressed concerns of the many citizens in North Naples, and Collier County in general, and fully understand the magnitude of why so many are strongly opposed to this project, as proposed. Please understand everyone is in agreement that something needs to be done with this assemblage of land, as it’s presently an eyesore to residents and visitors alike. With that being said, development is not the objection here, it’s the proposed project’s egregious intensity, its non-conforming height and density, its deviations in architecture, landscape buffers, parking, sidewalks, setbacks, right of ways … and the list goes on. As proposed, the scope and scale of One Naples certainly does not meet the intent of the current Land Development Code (LDC), nor is it in keeping with, or protective of the local environment and it poses great safety concerns for pedestrians, bicyclists, cars, and emergency vehicles alike. One Naples will negatively affect the heavily congested Vanderbilt Beach collector roadway, already having difficulty handling its existing peak hour traffic. The approval of this MPUD as proposed, steps from the public beach, will only serve to exasperate existing road-pedestrian safety issues with overpowering structures, short setbacks, vacation of right of ways, less parking and certainly less compatibility with the immediate surrounding public environment. Even with Stock's proposed traffic calming "gifts' and lush landscape, this project does not conform nor is it conducive to the local environment. Stock Development continues to advise the public they have had more than 50 meetings with the surrounding neighbors, to be a good neighbor, and understand the concerns. They have scaled down the project, reduced commercial space and are offering community improvements to offset stated objections. Despite those offerings, many local residents think Stock Development is failing to recognize that even its revised GMPA/ rezone petition with to 172 residences with 2 – 16 story towers is still incompatible with the local environment and many view it as invasive, unsightly ‘urban sprawl,’ given its location and limited space. As these petitions come before you for action, Stock Development maintains their ‘reduced’ tower height of 208 ft is justified and in keeping with neighboring structures, even though the County staff comments do not agree. They also maintain that, while they overshadow their immediate neighbors, their towers will be shorter than the highly visible Ritz Carlton and Pelican Bay, Trieste. Again, many believe Stock fails to acknowledge that those properties being referred to are not encroaching on setbacks, sidewalks, right of ways, have different # of units per acre and/or were built under previous codes/guidelines… nor are any so close to the pavement or at the entrance to the public beach! We are at a crossroad with the future of Naples... We need you, as our elected Commissioners to be ‘for the people, protect the local environment and be part of the solution. When all is said and done, this will ultimately come down to a policy decision. Every decision made has consequences and those consequences affect the future of Naples for decades to come. Granting such intense deviations to the current LDC will only allow future developers to come along and argue their project's consistency based on any deviations you allow today. Please, do the right thing here and deny One Naples, as proposed. VOTE NO! Do not allow this project to intensely, exceed allowable density to 31.7 units per acre in this (already) congested area with little, open green space and limited parking. Thank you.

From: Full Name Sue levell Email:sueklevell@yshoo.com Type a question ONE NAPLES GMP and PUD Rezone blanks:34108 Dear Commissioner, The ONE NAPLES growth plan amendment and rezone will be coming up for your review and action very soon. I respectfully ask that you ‘really’ listen to the expressed concerns of the many citizens in North Naples, and Collier County in general, and fully understand the magnitude of why so many are strongly opposed to this project, as proposed. Please understand everyone is in agreement that something needs to be done with this assemblage of land, as it’s presently an eyesore to residents and visitors alike. With that being said, development is not the objection here, it’s the proposed project’s egregious intensity, its non-conforming height and density, its deviations in architecture, landscape buffers, parking, sidewalks, setbacks, right of ways … and the list goes on. As proposed, the scope and scale of One Naples certainly does not meet the intent of the current Land Development Code (LDC), nor is it in keeping with, or protective of the local environment and it poses great safety concerns for pedestrians, bicyclists, cars, and emergency vehicles alike. One Naples will negatively affect the heavily congested Vanderbilt Beach collector roadway, already having difficulty handling its existing peak hour traffic. The approval of this MPUD as proposed, steps from the public beach, will only serve to exasperate existing road-pedestrian safety issues with overpowering structures, short setbacks, vacation of right of ways, less parking and certainly less compatibility with the immediate surrounding public environment. Even with Stock's proposed traffic calming "gifts' and lush landscape, this project does not conform nor is it conducive to the local environment. Stock Development continues to advise the public they have had more than 50 meetings with the surrounding neighbors, to be a good neighbor, and understand the concerns. They have scaled down the project, reduced commercial space and are offering community improvements to offset stated objections. Despite those offerings, many local residents think Stock Development is failing to recognize that even its revised GMPA/ rezone petition with to 172 residences with 2 – 16 story towers is still incompatible with the local environment and many view it as invasive, unsightly ‘urban sprawl,’ given its location and limited space. As these petitions come before you for action, Stock Development maintains their ‘reduced’ tower height of 208 ft is justified and in keeping with neighboring structures, even though the County staff comments do not agree. They also maintain that, while they overshadow their immediate neighbors, their towers will be shorter than the highly visible Ritz Carlton and Pelican Bay, Trieste.

As proposed, the scope and scale of One Naples certainly does not meet the intent of the current Land Development Code (LDC), nor is it in keeping with, or protective of the local environment and it poses great safety concerns for pedestrians, bicyclists, cars, and emergency vehicles alike. One Naples will negatively affect the heavily congested Vanderbilt Beach collector roadway, already having difficulty handling its existing peak hour traffic. The approval of this MPUD as proposed, steps from the public beach, will only serve to exasperate existing road-pedestrian safety issues with overpowering structures, short setbacks, vacation of right of ways, less parking and certainly less compatibility with the immediate surrounding public environment. Even with Stock's proposed traffic calming "gifts' and lush landscape, this project does not conform nor is it conducive to the local environment. Stock Development continues to advise the public they have had more than 50 meetings with the surrounding neighbors, to be a good neighbor, and understand the concerns. They have scaled down the project, reduced commercial space and are offering community improvements to offset stated objections. Despite those offerings, many local residents think Stock Development is failing to recognize that even its revised GMPA/ rezone petition with to 172 residences with 2 – 16 story towers is still incompatible with the local environment and many view it as invasive, unsightly ‘urban sprawl,’ given its location and limited space. As these petitions come before you for action, Stock Development maintains their ‘reduced’ tower height of 208 ft is justified and in keeping with neighboring structures, even though the County staff comments do not agree. They also maintain that, while they overshadow their immediate neighbors, their towers will be shorter than the highly visible Ritz Carlton and Pelican Bay, Trieste. Again, many believe Stock fails to acknowledge that those properties being referred to are not encroaching on setbacks, sidewalks, right of ways, have different # of units per acre and/or were built under previous codes/guidelines… nor are any so close to the pavement or at the entrance to the public beach! We are at a crossroad with the future of Naples... We need you, as our elected Commissioners to be ‘for the people, protect the local environment and be part of the solution. When all is said and done, this will ultimately come down to a policy decision. Every decision made has consequences and those consequences affect the future of Naples for decades to come. Granting such intense deviations to the current LDC will only allow future developers to come along and argue their project's consistency based on any deviations you allow today. Please, do the right thing here and deny One Naples, as proposed. VOTE NO! Do not allow this project to intensely, exceed allowable density to 31.7 units per acre in this (already) congested area with little, open green space and limited parking. Thank you.

From: Full Name Joan Eshkenazi Email:jeshkenazi@gmail.com Type a question ONE NAPLES GMP and PUD Rezone blanks:34108 Dear Commissioner, The ONE NAPLES growth plan amendment and rezone will be coming up for your review and action very soon. I respectfully ask that you ‘really’ listen to the expressed concerns of the many citizens in North Naples, and Collier County in general, and fully understand the magnitude of why so many are strongly opposed to this project, as proposed. Please understand everyone is in agreement that something needs to be done with this assemblage of land, as it’s presently an eyesore to residents and visitors alike. With that being said, development is not the objection here, it’s the proposed project’s egregious intensity, its non-conforming height and density, its deviations in architecture, landscape buffers, parking, sidewalks, setbacks, right of ways … and the list goes on. As proposed, the scope and scale of One Naples certainly does not meet the intent of the current Land Development Code (LDC), nor is it in keeping with, or protective of the local environment and it poses great safety concerns for pedestrians, bicyclists, cars, and emergency vehicles alike. One Naples will negatively affect the heavily congested Vanderbilt Beach collector roadway, already having difficulty handling its existing peak hour traffic. The approval of this MPUD as proposed, steps from the public beach, will only serve to exasperate existing road-pedestrian safety issues with overpowering structures, short setbacks, vacation of right of ways, less parking and certainly less compatibility with the immediate surrounding public environment. Even with Stock's proposed traffic calming "gifts' and lush landscape, this project does not conform nor is it conducive to the local environment. Stock Development continues to advise the public they have had more than 50 meetings with the surrounding neighbors, to be a good neighbor, and understand the concerns. They have scaled down the project, reduced commercial space and are offering community improvements to offset stated objections. Despite those offerings, many local residents think Stock Development is failing to recognize that even its revised GMPA/ rezone petition with to 172 residences with 2 – 16 story towers is still incompatible with the local environment and many view it as invasive, unsightly ‘urban sprawl,’ given its location and limited space. As these petitions come before you for action, Stock Development maintains their ‘reduced’ tower height of 208 ft is justified and in keeping with neighboring structures, even though the County staff comments do not agree. They also maintain that, while they overshadow their immediate neighbors, their towers will be shorter than the highly visible Ritz Carlton and Pelican Bay, Trieste.

Sincerely, Mrs. Mary Lou CaminoI have been a Beachwalk homeowner for over 20 years. I am very much against and disturbed by the possibility of approval of Naples One. The traffic is already more than Vanderbilt Beach should handle per day. I am fearful to take my walk to the Beach anymore. Trying to exit Beachwalk by car is also dangerous and difficult due to volume and speeding cars. Please let us keep our beautiful beach within common sense decisions. I trust you so please do not let this 73 year old woman down.

Please understand everyone is in agreement that something needs to be done with this assemblage of land, as it’s presently an eyesore to residents and visitors alike. With that being said, development is not the objection here, it’s the proposed project’s egregious intensity, its non-conforming height and density, its deviations in architecture, landscape buffers, parking, sidewalks, setbacks, right of ways … and the list goes on. As proposed, the scope and scale of One Naples certainly does not meet the intent of the current Land Development Code (LDC), nor is it in keeping with, or protective of the local environment and it poses great safety concerns for pedestrians, bicyclists, cars, and emergency vehicles alike. One Naples will negatively affect the heavily congested Vanderbilt Beach collector roadway, already having difficulty handling its existing peak hour traffic. The approval of this MPUD as proposed, steps from the public beach, will only serve to exasperate existing road-pedestrian safety issues with overpowering structures, short setbacks, vacation of right of ways, less parking and certainly less compatibility with the immediate surrounding public environment. Even with Stock's proposed traffic calming "gifts' and lush landscape, this project does not conform nor is it conducive to the local environment. Stock Development continues to advise the public they have had more than 50 meetings with the surrounding neighbors, to be a good neighbor, and understand the concerns. They have scaled down the project, reduced commercial space and are offering community improvements to offset stated objections. Despite those offerings, many local residents think Stock Development is failing to recognize that even its revised GMPA/ rezone petition with to 172 residences with 2 – 16 story towers is still incompatible with the local environment and many view it as invasive, unsightly ‘urban sprawl,’ given its location and limited space. As these petitions come before you for action, Stock Development maintains their ‘reduced’ tower height of 208 ft is justified and in keeping with neighboring structures, even though the County staff comments do not agree. They also maintain that, while they overshadow their immediate neighbors, their towers will be shorter than the highly visible Ritz Carlton and Pelican Bay, Trieste. Again, many believe Stock fails to acknowledge that those properties being referred to are not encroaching on setbacks, sidewalks, right of ways, have different # of units per acre and/or were built under previous codes/guidelines… nor are any so close to the pavement or at the entrance to the public beach! We are at a crossroad with the future of Naples... We need you, as our elected Commissioners to be ‘for the people, protect the local environment and be part of the solution. When all is said and done, this will ultimately come down to a policy decision. Every decision made has consequences and those consequences affect the future of Naples for decades to come. Granting such intense deviations to the current LDC will only allow future developers to come along and argue their project's consistency based on any deviations you allow today. Please, do the right thing here and deny One Naples, as proposed. VOTE NO! Do not allow this project to intensely, exceed allowable density to 31.7 units per acre in this (already) congested area with little, open green space and limited parking. Thank you.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Commissioners. The fact that Stock Company has acquired a parcel of land from Du Ra Ma does not change our objection to this oversized development. It will still have condo buildings that are too tall, walls that are too high, setbacks that will not be met, the boat slips and store will still have detrimental effect on the lagoon and too many variances to the zoning laws will still have to be issued. Don't be fooled - a 3/4 acre lot in the middle of the walled city will not change the loss of sunlight, gulf breezes and open feeling one has as they walk, bike or drive down Vanderbilt Beach Road. The tunnel effect will still be there. Please do not allow this oversized project to move forward.

This will all change if you allow One Naples to be constructed as presently planned. The five story building and huge wall next to the sidewalk along Vanderbilt Beach Road will block out the sunshine, gulf breezes and open feeling, the tunnel effect will be there forever. Please don't let this happen. Other concerns: - The congestion near the beach and traffic back-up alone VB road will become unbearable. - The 2 fourteen story buildings and 3 five story buildings will eliminate the open feeling and produce the unwanted tunnel effect. - The 99 boat slips, store and gas pumps will add traffic, noise and pollution to the peaceful lagoon that so many residents enjoy. - The precedent of allowing so many variances to the zoning laws will forever have a negative effect on the quality of life in all of Collier county. Why do we have zoning laws if builders continually receive variances? Will the proposed One Naples improve the health, safety, welfare and quality of life the residents of this area? ABSOLUTELY NOT! We and thousands of other Collier county residents implore you to vote against this divisive project.

Importance: High Good morning Jeff and Heidi. As you know I represent the Vanderbilt Beach Residents Association, Inc, (VBRA), and as you are also aware, VBRA opposes the approval of the three pending One Naples applications. During the Planning Commission hearing, I raised the issue that the proposed MPUD would allow the construction of one massive tower. Attached are some excerpts from the Planning Commission hearings regarding whether the developer, based upon the proposed MPUD, could build one big, wide building on Tract MU Tract 1. In reviewing the proposed MPUD documents in the agenda packet, including the proposed conceptual Master Concept Plan (Exhibit C-1 ) and Development Standards Table (Exhibit B and its footnotes) I did not see such a prohibition or restriction. While Footnote #4 of Exhibit B states “ “Exhibit C, Sheet 3 of 4 depicts the location of the towers along Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive...”, in my review, Exhibit C, Sheet 3 of 4 only details setbacks and does not prohibit the construction of one massive tower on Tract MU Tract 1, nor does it show any footprint that would prohibit one “big, wide building”. Does the MPUD as proposed, prohibit the construction of one “big, wide building” on Tract MU1? Thanks Tony Under Florida Law, e-mail addresses are public records.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioners, My family has owned a condo at 11030 Gulf Shore Drive since 1987, and the appeal of the area has been the sense of intimacy, neighborhood,and community. That character has been maintained by the limit on building height, occupation density, and traffic volume, and on sufficient setbacks to maintain the uniform look of the surrounding properties. The One Naples Development does not remotely fit with the aesthetic of the surrounding community and would cause unmanageable traffic volume, adverse impact on neighboring properties due to the unbalanced appearance of the buildings and insufficient setbacks, and destruction to the beauty of a area prized for its neighborhood feeling. Please consider the thousands of residents and properties in the area that have worked for decades to create and preserve a way of life that is not overshadowed by towering and inappropriate buildings crowded onto insufficient property spaces with crowded traffic that ruins the quality of life in a special area. Please deny the request to rezone and help us preserve our way of life in our community. Thank you. Susan Keister . Owner, 11303 Gulf Shore Drive, Naples Florida 34108 (614) 327-3096 phone From:Dorothy Hornsby To:TaylorPenny Subject:RE: Vanderbilt neighborhood Date:Tuesday, September 1, 2020 5:23:00 PM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source. Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: We hope that you will take the lead in demanding that the Stock company bring this overreaching plan for One Naples more into compatibility with the neighborhood. Save Vanderbilt Beach Inc has provided the County Planning Staff with its recommendations as to how One Naples might be redesigned to be neighborhood compatible. These recommendations address building height, density of residential units, setbacks, open space and more. Latitude is provided to Stock, giving the development flexibility vis-à-vis the existing C-3 zoning restrictions. I encourage you to request that the staff provide you with the Cover Letter and the Compatibility Standards document provided by Greg Stuart Associates, Planners to the County planning staff. Can I count on you to vote down his current design? Ask him to review the documents referred to above. You need not wait until the formal meeting. A call from you today indicating that you can’t vote for today’s design, but that you would fully support a project more sensitive to neighborhood wishes and compatibility would go a long way to bringing Stock back to the table It’s not too late. Stock will tell you that there have been literally dozens of meetings with the community and that is true, but the changes he has made to date have simply not been adequate, nor is it appropriate that there are quid pro quos with new paint jobs, access control systems, pool covers, power washes, and discounted pricing on needed sea wall repairs being exchanged for support. A 700-foot long 35-foot high wall 15-feet off his property line and a mere 35-feet from edge of the pavement along the length of Gulfshore and VBR, no matter what the planting in front of it, is not in the public interest. It will be a monstrosity for decades to come. And the towers, two 208-foot high structures as close as 25 feet to the property line will dominate the landscape, dwarfing the surrounding buildings. Stock is asking the county to donate nearly .8 acres to him in the form of the vacation of various roadways that run throughout his property. What is he giving in return?

Collier County Commissioners: We ask that you do not consider passing any development which does not adhere to current zoning in all ways including height, residential density, setback, green space etc. Pete and Kim Heath On Wednesday, February 24, 2021, 01:36:30 PM EST, peter heath <heaths2004@yahoo.com> wrote: Collier County Commissioners: As you consider Mr. Stock's proposal, please be guided by your obligation to the residents of all of Collier County. A tasteful, modest development, of appropriate scale, consistent and compatible with the current neighborhood and its zoning requirements, can be a responsible enhancement to the area. But, as proposed, the Stock development is not responsible. It is too expansive, too tall, forces upon us too big of a marina, and mocks appropriate established setbacks and green space requirements. Most importantly, please bear in mind before you vote, that it is against current zoning regulations, and flouts the Collier County Land Development Code, which was established to protect our county from exactly this type of overdevelopment! Vanderbilt Beach is a popular county beach and should remain accessible to all county residents. Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Boulevard are single lanes, and are already heavily congested with cars, bicycles, and pedestrians. The additional burden this proposal imposes will overwhelm the current infrastructure. To Mr. Stock, this is only a money making scheme that he is vigorously trying to foist upon your constituents. As county commissioners, please consider all of your county residents. That is your charge. This includes not only the neighbors to One Naples, but all residents of the entire county. This vote will set a precedent for how all of Collier County will be allowed to grow in the future. Will Collier County grow according to the established Land Development Code, or will Mr. Stock, and other developers who will then follow his lead, be allowed to look upon the code with derision, and then talk the board into changing it to fit their personal wants? If so, why was a Land Development Code ever established? It will have totally lost its intended purpose. Please stand for the voices of all the people. Vote NO to this condescending proposal.

"WE PASSIONATELY BELIEVE ONE NAPLES WILL BEAUTIFY THE AREA, ENHANCING THE COMMUNITY." Brian Stock (CEO, Stock Development) "One Naples is unique because it offers the best opportunity to redevelop a highly visible, blighted intersection and complete much-needed, community-wide public improvements, paid for by STOCK." As a long time Naples Park resident/visitor, Vanderbilt Beach was just fine while passing through this blighted intersection (including garage), but somehow building a huge monstrosity next to it will beautify it. Still wondering how it will enhance the community. Thanks, but no thanks, If they were were really concerned about enhancing the community, perhaps it would be best to ask first. From what I can tell, it is Stocks dream, not the rest of Vanderbilt Beach and surrounding area. I get it, they are a business and build quality stuff, but what they are proposing is just wrong for the neighborhood. Just some food for thought from someone who has invested 20+ years here.

It is wrong to allow major variances to dozens of regulations in the County Growth Plan, County Zoning Code and Coastal Management Guidelines. 2. It is wrong for the commissioners to give land valued at more than $4,000,000 to the developer. 3. It is wrong for the commissioners to set future precedent by voting to approve a project with so many major variances. 4.

Dear Sirs and Madam Chairwoman Taylor, We are writing to express our grave concern with the One Naples project currently being considered for our City. As former residents of the City of Chicago we have vast experience with zoning changes approved only to provide profits for developers, leaving the community with dense traffic and a lack of thoughtful infrastructure. Access to Naples beautiful public beachfront recreational areas are already a highly desired premium for our residents and visitors. Zoning changes to further limit a valuable and limited asset should not be made available to wealthy developers pitching increased tax dollars to our local government for which you are respected stewards. We ask you to vote to deny any changes to our current zoning laws and not approve a change to accommodate such a large, dense development as currently proposed by the One Naples developer.

I park at the Vanderbilt Beach garage, walk to the beach and enjoy the sun and gulf. It's always very crowded there with pedestrians, bikers and cars. AT the intersection of Vanderbilt Beach Rd and Gulf Shore Dr, it is very busy and sometimes even a bit scary crossing with all the traffic. I am asking you to disallow the One Naples project to move forward. It will be a detriment to the town and especially for the residents and neighborhoods there. It's a wonderful old part of Florida. Not everything has to be built and "made pretty". That's part of the charm of Naples and why people like t come. I urge you...please do not allow the One Naples project to go through. Thank you.

The written opposition, via petition, between that organization and The Pelican Bay Association is now over 3,000. Pelican Bay to my knowledge just started their petition about 8 weeks ago, without the part time residents even involved. I highly recommend that you view it. It would be great if you could incorporate it in your newsletter. The neighborhood wants a resolution to the treatment of that corner BUT 2- 16 storied buildings, one of which could be zoned for a hotel and almost as tall as the Ritz, which sits on 20+acres, is really over the top. The threat that just anything would go up on that average, second class commercial property is just that a threat. It’s been mostly vacant for 30 years. The original planners envisioned a commercial low rise for the local beach residents. Hence the low rises and spacious walkways, integrating the area. One Naples with its 2 storied wall, all along Vanderbilt Beach Road, is anything but inclusive. It’s very exclusive. Yet the main road into the project,will open up just across from the public beach parking lot. A mess, especially if there is a future hotel. At least, view the material and see what your constituents care about.

This is just one of the tools available to our tourism industry partners at the Paradise Coast website. Check out the others, too. There's lots of great information in this newsletter -- a Road Alert for Vanderbilt Drive, the opportunity to register for our first Virtual "Coffee" with The Commissioner, testing updates -- so be sure to read all the way through. But first I want to talk about masks. You may have heard that in my role as Chair of the county's Tourism Development Council (TDC), I called an emergency meeting earlier this week. I am seeing Florida and Collier County and Naples mentioned more and more in national news in a very negative light, and hearing more and more concern from family and friends outside the state. When I see headlines like this, it gets me concerned about prospects for our 2021 season: Sometimes those of us who aren't directly in the tourism business can forget that it is the economic engine that drives our community. Yes, that is $2.3 billion, with a B. 2019 was a record year, and we actually were up in January and February over even those great numbers. Then came March and its surreal twist. Here are the numbers presented to the Tourist Development Council at our last regular meeting: That is a lot of lost income for a lot of local business owners and their workers. My heart goes out to them all. So I called the meeting to have a discussion with the other members of the TDC and find out if they would be willing to add their voices to mine in requesting that the Board of County Commissioners once again consider adopting a mask ordinance, in light of our COVID spike and resulting negative publicity. In addition, our TDC staff has begun to see other Florida communities, with which we compete for tourists, highlighting their own mask ordinances as one of the ways they are making their communities safe for visitors. The TDC voted 4-3 in favor of asking the Board to consider masks again, in an economic light. So my item on the agenda for next's Tuesday's County Commission meeting will come with that backing, such as it is. However I was concerned that during the TDC meeting, we had many public speakers, and nearly every one of them was against any sort of mask requirements. In my office, the majority of calls and emails -- nearly 75% of them -- are in favor of a mask mandate, essentially begging for one. But that's not who is being heard in the meetings. I'm hopeful that more of the people who feel as I do -- that it is good public policy and simply common sense that face coverings should be worn in indoor public places -- will take the time to make their voices heard, literally, in this discussion next Tuesday. With the ability to make public comment virtually, it is possible to do so from the safety of your own home (this item will be heard sometime after 1pm): Notice of Public Meeting - Board of County Commissioners Tuesday, July 14, 2020 9:00 a.m. Notice is hereby given that the Collier County Board of County Commissioners will meet at 9:00 a.m., Tuesday, July 14th, in the Board of County Commissioners chambers, third floor, Collier County Government Center, 3299 Tamiami Trail E., Naples, Florida 34112.

Hi, Penny and Sherry, Save Vanderbilt Beach would like to reserve up to 90 minutes for our experts to make their presentations. Greg Stuart, Planner 30 minutes Bill Oliver, Traffic 15 minutes Sarah Specter, Atty 15 minutes Ralf Brookes, Atty 15 minutes Buzz Victor, up to 15 minutes If you have a few minutes, I’d like to chat with you, and maybe the County Attorney, about the structure of the March 1 meeting. Specifically I am wondering if, after public comment has closed, and before or during the Commissioners’ discussion, you as Chair, can move for a vote to deny or approve the GMP amendment. The thought would be that this should take place before there is a discussion about the road vacation and zoning. If the discussions get mixed up together, the fact the negotiations about the site’s heights, setbacks, open space, etc. are taking place makes the tacit assumption that the GMP amendment will be approved. On the other hand, if the GMP vote takes place and two of you vote to deny, there is no need for further discussion. My guess is that, if Stock sees that there is even a possibility the the vote to deny might succeed, he will withdraw the application, again meaning that the zoning discussions are moot. I’d love to get Jeff’s thoughts about this to be sure that it doesn’t put you in any sort of difficult position. Thanks, Buzz Buzz Victor 5650 Greenwood Pl. Bl.

I am writing to you today to express my opposition to the Stock Development One Naples as it is currently proposed. I was encouraged by the action of the Planning Commission and their inability to recommend approval not only of the current Stock plan, but of a watered-down version that reduced the outrageous tower heights by almost 25%, and extremely diminished setbacks. They did their job, protecting the community. Now it’s your turn. Planning Commissioner Frye said it best when he asked the other Commissioners how they could ignore the outpouring of sentiment from the community. These are your constituents, your voters. Isn’t it your responsibility to listen to those who will live with this atrocity for decades to come and to vehemently deny the developer the right to build it? If hundreds of emails exhorting you to deny the project are not enough, if more than eighty people who signed up to speak against the project at the Planning Commission are not enough, if the 1,100 members of Save Vanderbilt Beach, forty percent of whom have contributed more than $100,000 to engage experts and fight the development are not enough, what exactly will be enough to persuade you to do the right thing? Please, when it comes before you, vote to deny the project as it is currently proposed. If you do approve something for the site, and remember we are not opposed to reasonable development, please approve the project with the conditions that your own Planning Staff proposed. They are reasonable and result in a project that is compatible with and complementary to the neighborhood. In hopes of a more reasonable project, I am respectfully, Susan Housel 701 95th Ave N Naples, FL 34108 -- "Civil Rights and Voting Have Always Gone Hand in Hand" Susan Housel 513.225.2797 - M From:Chism, Nancy To:TaylorPenny Subject:Stock Development One Naples Project Date:Tuesday, October 13, 2020 2:48:20 PM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source.

Dear Penny, You will soon be getting a recommendation from the Collier County Planning Commission on Stock Development’s plan for developing the area at the intersection of Gulfshore Drive and Vanderbilt Beach Road. A lot has been documented about this project by Save Vanderbilt Beach and others and I agree with the deficiencies that have been raised, but I also want to present another issue that underlies the discussion. Mr. James Sabo of the Planning Commission staff rightfully pointed out that the comparison that Stock Development is using —buildings to the south of Vanderbilt Beach Road such as Trieste, the Ritz Hotel, and Bay Colony—are quite different from the buildings to the north of Vanderbilt Beach Road. While he was talking mainly about building heights and setbacks and their access to the road, I believe that there is a socioeconomic difference that has not been discussed in any depth. The structures that Stock uses for comparison and the complex that they are proposing are intended for very wealthy individuals. The existing buildings north of Vanderbilt Beach Road and east of Gulfshore Drive are used mostly by people who are not wealthy. There is a beach bar, a convenience store, a modest motel and restaurant, some modest condos. The people who walk the street to the beach are coming from the middle-class Naples Park neighborhood or parking in the public garage. They are dragging coolers and chairs, riding beach bicycles, pushing strollers. They are white, brown, and black, old and young. They come to dance, picnic, swim, play. And what has Stock labeled this scene? Blight. To those who think of Naples as an enclave of the rich, as a place where luxurious structures and manicured lawns are the norm, yes, this is different, but it is insulting to call it blight. It is the entrance to a public beach where people who cannot afford beachfront homes or condos can come to enjoy sea and sand. It is one of the few places along the coastline where there is free access with parking for these ordinary people. Yes, they can be channeled on to a narrow sidewalk to make their way past the luxury dwellings that Stock proposes, but clearly, the change creates a deeper sense of the economic divide and the fear that the area will become increasingly unwelcoming to those who seek a public beach. The noise and color will disappear and with it, the chance for Naples to share the beach with those who are not wealthy, rather than relegating them to certain sections of the city without close beach access. Our master plan has correctly anticipated that this corner is not for high rise luxury condos. As you continue to hear arguments about the future of this project, I ask that you consider this issue as well as the other issues about aesthetics, traffic, and density that have already been made.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner, As a Collier County Commissioner, I hope you are listening to the growing level of concern among North Naples residents opposed to the One Naples project, as proposed. What is the value of planning when you can arbitrarily change zoning and request variances that conflict with safety, rights and common sense? The hundreds of walkers from Naples Park, Beachwalk, Pavilion, etc. with chairs on their backs will wonder what happened, when people, not previously zoned, can simply cross the street to take their place at Vanderbilt Beach. One Naples will add more than 500 vehicles that will be forced to use local streets not built for traffic. Vanderbilt Beach Road east of 41 is being widened to six lanes and is being extended further east to the proposed 360,000 vehicle Rural Lands Service Area (RLSA) while west of 41 the two lanes can’t be widened. Please note that Emergency Services must pass through Vanderbilt Beach Road from Hammock Oak Drive. Furthermore, the county has built an expensive four-mile bike path, including bridges, north of Bluebill Avenue to Bonita Springs and you must use Vanderbilt Drive to access. Please consider these facts before deciding. Thank you. Respectfully, Cherie and Joe Bawduniak 803 Knoll Wood Ct.

February 28, 2021 Honorable Chair Taylor and Commissioners Solis, Saunders, McDaniel and Lo Castro: I am writing to you as a proud 40+ year resident of North Naples, District 2, Collier County in support of the “One Naples” project which is coming before you for a vote. As a resident of the Dunes community, and a commercial building and business owner on 96th and 41, my husband and I spend most of our time commuting in this area, and swim at the Vanderbilt Beach location on the gulf. We believe this project Stock Development is proposing reflects the kind of smart, stable growth my family and I wish to see in our community. We know many in our community here believe this corner has been not only somewhat of an eye sore, but also troublesome and dangerous, and certainly goes against our collective mission for the beautiful community we all strive to achieve. The beauty and scope of this project is beneficial alone in so many ways and additionally, this LOCAL builder has offered to improve the SAFETY of the intersection of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive, provide connected public bicycle paths throughout “One Naples”, create a lush, tropical garden with the installation of mature, native landscaping throughout the project’s corridor and a coffee shop – deli open to the public ALL AT NO EXPENSE TO THE TAXPAYERS. The above facts are reason enough to support this project, however we also benefit from the increase of our residential tax -base, collection of impact fees, hiring of local contractors adding to a positive economic advantage for our own community members as well as substantially lower traffic based on a residential rather than a new commercial project provide a magnitude of added benefits. I am asking you to support “One Naples” based on the facts and benefits to our community. Thank you for your consideration, your leadership and your service to our community and county.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: We hope that you will take the lead in demanding that the Stock company bring this overreaching plan for One Naples more into compatibility with the neighborhood. Save Vanderbilt Beach Inc has provided the County Planning Staff with its recommendations as to how One Naples might be redesigned to be neighborhood compatible. These recommendations address building height, density of residential units, setbacks, open space and more. Latitude is provided to Stock, giving the development flexibility vis-à-vis the existing C-3 zoning restrictions. I encourage you to request that the staff provide you with the Cover Letter and the Compatibility Standards document provided by Greg Stuart Associates, Planners to the County planning staff. Can I count on you to vote down his current design? Ask him to review the documents referred to above. You need not wait until the formal meeting. A call from you today indicating that you can’t vote for today’s design, but that you would fully support a project more sensitive to neighborhood wishes and compatibility would go a long way to bringing Stock back to the table It’s not too late. Stock will tell you that there have been literally dozens of meetings with the community and that is true, but the changes he has made to date have simply not been adequate, nor is it appropriate that there are quid pro quos with new paint jobs, access control systems, pool covers, power washes, and discounted pricing on needed sea wall repairs being exchanged for support. A 700-foot long 35-foot high wall 15-feet off his property line and a mere 35-feet from edge of the pavement along the length of Gulfshore and VBR, no matter what the planting in front of it, is not in the public interest. It will be a monstrosity for decades to come. And the towers, two 208-foot high structures as close as 25 feet to the property line will dominate the landscape, dwarfing the surrounding buildings. Stock is asking the county to donate nearly .8 acres to him in the form of the vacation of various roadways that run throughout his property. What is he giving in return? A project not in the public interest, adding too much density, traffic, safety concerns, and additional beach usage to an area already overburdened. Please, Commissioner Taylor, help us protect the public interest Thank you.

To stop receiving such messages from this sender, please unsubscribe With apologies to the late, great Tim Russert … The top three issues facing the 2021 Florida Legislature are COVID, COVID, COVID. It’s no surprise that just about everything that will happen during the 60- day Session will be directly or indirectly related to the pandemic or influenced by the countless ways it has changed life in our state. From health care policy to the budget, from education policy to the environment, the Session will seem like all COVID-19, all the time. Even where legislation doesn’t directly link to COVID-19 — say, school choice — lawmakers will be factoring in what it will cost in a pandemic- battered economy or how it will help kids whose schooling was turned upside down. How could it be any other way? If the great Tim Russert were here. it would be COVID, COVID, COVID. The biggest COVID-19 impact on the Legislature will, of course, be the budget. Florida’s economy took a body blow from which it is still struggling to recover. Meeting the state’s ever-growing needs is challenging in the best of times, but revenues are down, and needs are up. When it comes to generating revenue to fill budget shortfalls, legislators have a few ideas up their sleeve, in a diverse list that includes: — Requiring all out-of-state retailers to collect and remit sales taxes on things Floridians buy online; — Authorizing online sports gambling; and — Jump-starting Florida's airports, which are the gateway to tourism — pre-COVID-19, nearly half of all visitors arrived here by air — and suffered major losses when passenger traffic dipped significantly last year. But realistically, generating new revenue can only carry the load so far. The real challenge will be determining how to divvy up what’s there to do the most good for a public with more needs than ever. Just consider the Medicaid budget, which barely meets Florida's poorest citizens' basic health care needs and faces a $1.3 billion gap. The state is notoriously chintzy in reimbursing hospitals and health care providers for taking care of low-income patients, and any further cuts would threaten access to care for the state’s poorest residents. In the past, lawmakers often chose winners and losers in which hospitals would get adequate Medicaid funding. Still, this year it’s imperative that decisions on dividing the pie be as balanced as possible. The other huge COVID-19-related priority will be liability protection. When the pandemic exploded a year ago, businesses of all kinds had to scramble to adapt, often in the face of confusing and contradictory guidance from the feds that seemed to change every week. Now, those businesses understandably want protection from lawsuits that might arise due to their COVID-19 response, and the Legislature looks poised to give it to them. Less clear is whether liability protection will be extended to nursing homes, who had the most daunting task of all — caring for Florida’s most COVID-19-vulnerable residents without being given adequate supplies of equipment, PPE, and staff — and are now worried that their caregivers will have to constantly look over their shoulder to make sure trial lawyers aren’t second-guessing their every action. Indeed, COVID-19 is forcing the Legislature to reconsider how so many things are done in Florida. Legislation would broaden access for pharmacists to administer vaccinations, an important consideration in a state of 21 million people. In this age of remote everything, protecting internet privacy has become a top priority. Mental health resources, always stretched thin, have become so much more crucial to help people through a year of turmoil and disruption. Amid legislative leaders’ push to expand school choice options again, public schools have to find some 87,000 kids who have remained absent from school amid the pandemic; an enrollment hit that could impact public school district budgets. The chronically woeful prison system is desperate for more guards, something that only money will solve. Then, there are the legislative issues that would arise even without a pandemic — but even these will have to jockey for position when the agenda is filled with COVID-19-related topics. Things like further restrictions on vote-by-mail (a curious priority following Florida’s most trouble-free election in years); the Governor’s push to rein in protests; an attempt to abolish the once-every-20-years Constitution Revision Commission, which perhaps threatens the Legislature’s desire to be the only game in town; a push to eliminate no-fault auto insurance; and making our state more resilient to withstand the impacts of climate change. But see, that last one — along with other long-standing environmental priorities like Everglades restoration and springs protection — require money. Lots of it. So, it all comes back to the overarching theme of the 2021 Session: COVD, COVID, COVID. —@SteveLemongello: [Donald] Trump goes right to the lie that he won the election.

The state Capitol remains mostly closed, with virus testing of staff and lawmakers taking place daily. And while Floridians can still testify before committees, the Senate is requiring everyone to do so remotely, from a couple of blocks away.

Brodeur also is putting a lot of energy into his SB 1260 to toughen sentencing against drug dealers, SB 1024 expanding access to mental health services, and SB 80 to clarify child welfare rules. “Janet Cruz brings passion for Florida families to Tallahassee” via Joe Henderson of Florida Politics — The catastrophe last summer of Florida’s unemployment system collapse wreaked havoc and brought misery for working families. Outrage rained down upon Deloitte Consulting, which designed the $77 million computer system that melted down when the need was greatest. That’s bad, right? Yes, but that didn’t stop the state from awarding the company behind the chaos a $135 million contract to overhaul the state’s Medicaid data system. And when news of that leaked last August, Sen. Cruz of Tampa had a rapid response. “Shevrin Jones says Session should include condemnation of White supremacy following Capitol attack” via Ryan Nicol of Florida Politics — With the Capitol attack months in the rearview, Democratic Sen. Jones wants to make sure Florida hasn’t forgotten the threat of White supremacy. Jones is pushing a resolution in the 2021 Legislative Session calling on his colleagues to condemn the hateful ideology. In a talk with Florida Politics, he pegged it as one of his top priorities this year. The measure would follow a broader resolution, approved in 2020, pushing back against philosophies that incite hatred based on immutable characteristics. White nationalists and White supremacists were specifically named in that 2020 resolution, though even that wasn’t without controversy. —”Polk’s Senators have big roles as Session begins” via Gary White of The Lakeland Ledger “With several high-profile safety bills, Dan Daley starts Session on- point” via Carol Brzozowski for Florida Politics — “Jamie’s Law” is one of seven key pieces of legislation Daley, a Democrat representing District 97, is focusing on as he enters the 2021 Legislative Session. Named for Jaime Guttenberg, HB 25 would require a background check on all individuals purchasing ammunition, closing a loophole in Florida law that does not require vendors to check backgrounds for ammunition purchases. “As a graduate of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High, nothing is more important to me than preventing another tragedy like what our community experienced from ever happening again,” Daley said. Fred Guttenberg, gun reform advocate and Jamie’s father, notes that with about 4 million weapons on the streets, “we must make it harder for those who intend to kill to do so. Jaime’s Law will help save lives immediately.” Dan Daley expects an active Session.

Last February, Persons-Mulicka, a Fort Myers Republican, launched her legislative bid with support from several state political luminaries, including state House Majority Leader and current director of the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity Dane Eagle. By May, she gathered enough signatures to get on the ballot to succeed term-limited Rep. Heather Fitzenhagen in House District 78. Also, in May, Super Lawyers named her a Rising Star Super Lawyer for the eighth year in a row. Super Lawyers rates lawyers and recognizes outstanding ones nationwide. Persons-Mulicka, who is a partner in her own firm, Strayhorn & Persons, P.L., in Fort Myers, was included among land use and zoning attorneys. “VISIT FLORIDA hoping for reemergence in potential heroic role” via Scott Powers of Florida Politics — Not long ago, VISIT FLORIDA was on life support, and the Legislature contemplated a mercy killing. Yet now the agency enters the 2021 Legislative Session viewed by some as a potential savior of a state economy that’s deeply suffering. “The tourism industry is our number one industry here in the state of Florida. And as goes the tourism industry, so goes the economy of the state of Florida,” said VISIT FLORIDA President Dana Young. Just three, four years ago, VISIT FLORIDA was beset with harsh charges of bloat, misspending, ineffectiveness, junkets, questionable bonuses, lavish celebrity contracts, infighting, and lack of accountability. Audits and investigations followed. “Amid pandemic, lawmakers offer little direct help for average residents” via Lawrence Mower, Mary Ellen Klas, Ana Ceballos and Kirby Wilson of The Tampa Bay Times — On Tuesday, Florida’s 40 Senators and 120 Representatives will convene in Tallahassee for one of the strangest Legislative Sessions in The Capitol’s history. Lobbyists won’t be roaming the halls, seeking out lawmakers to cajole and persuade. The public won’t be packed into committee rooms to protest controversial bills. Most (not all) will be wearing masks. Committees also have worked quickly to advance conservative DeSantis priorities that have little to do with average Floridians, including a controversial anti-riot bill, measures that crackdown on “Big Tech” companies and bills that prevent businesses from being sued for spreading COVID-19.

State Republican legislative leaders on Friday announced a $100 million-a-year plan to tackle the issue. House Speaker Chris Sprowls said at a news conference that the Legislature's upcoming Session would address flooding and sea- level rise. “With sea-level rise, we are seeing that risk grow exponentially, from storm surge and tidal flooding to groundwater and flash flooding. The impacts are devastating,” Sprowls said. “Republican bill to dismantle Florida's M-CORES toll roads project on fast track” via Jeffrey Schweers of the USA Today Network — State Sen. Gayle Harrell's bill to repeal and defund the massive public works toll roads project known as M-CORES is on the fast track toward approval. The bill is the first by a Republican to dismantle the signature piece of legislation pushed through by former Florida Senate President Bill Galvano. Harrell filed the bill Thursday, and it is already on the Senate Transportation Committee's calendar for Wednesday. It has just one other committee stop, Appropriations, before it can go to a floor vote, suggesting it has been fast-tracked for approval. Senate President Wilton Simpson said before Session that M-CORES was one of several big-money items on the chopping block as Florida faces a huge revenue shortfall created by the COVID-19 pandemic. Health liability bills teed up this week via News Service of Florida — Though some of the details differ, the House and Senate next week will continue moving forward with proposals that would help shield health care providers from lawsuits related to COVID-19. On Tuesday, the House Pandemics & Public Emergencies Committee will take up the House’s health care liability bill (HB 7005), sponsored by Rep. Colleen Burton. A day later, the Senate Health Policy Committee will take up the Senate version (SB 74), sponsored by Sen. Jeff Brandes. The Senate bill would require plaintiffs to prove by an overwhelming amount of evidence that health care providers were grossly negligent or engaged in intentional misconduct. The House bill would require plaintiffs to prove negligence or misconduct by a preponderance of the evidence. —”Bill would revamp Florida’s PPE preparedness” via Haley Brown of Florida Politics “Erin Grall presses election supervisors on how they spent that Mark Zuckerberg, Priscilla Chan money” via Jacob Ogles of Florida Politics — The leader of the Florida House’s public integrity committee wants election supervisors to detail how outside grants were spent last year. Rep. Erin Grall, chair of the Public Integrity and Elections Committee, sent a request on House letterhead ferreting out details. “Your responses will help the Committee address many issues facing Florida voters,” Grall wrote. The survey asks first for an accounting of all grants received from sources besides the state and federal governments. It makes mention of high-profile grants. That comes months after the Center for Tech and Civic Life committed $250 million in grants for local elections offices to help them navigate the challenges of the pandemic. “Bills broaden access to medical, recreational pot” via Anila Yoganathan of The Associated Press — Florida could further broaden access to marijuana under a slew of bills proposed ahead of this year’s Legislative Session that include tweaks to medical cannabis rules and even long shot measures to legalize recreational use. The bills come alongside a separate move to put recreational use before voters as a state constitutional amendment in 2022, following the success of a ballot measure approving medical marijuana in 2016. The Make It Legal advocacy group says it must collect about 200,000 more signatures; 766,000 are needed to put the issue before voters. More than a dozen bills have been introduced for consideration to expand access to medical and recreational pot. Image via AP. Scoop — “Spencer Roach files THC limits on medical marijuana” via Jacob Ogles of Florida Politics — A new bill filed in the House would cap sum of tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, levels in medical marijuana in Florida. Rep. Spencer Roach, a North Fort Myers Republican, filed legislation (HB 1455) that, along with introducing new regulations on the industry, would restrict prescriptions to low-THC cannabis. The legislation as written would limit THC to 10% for smokable marijuana, 15% in edibles, and 60% in all other products. Within the industry, caps have been fought by producers of grown marijuana because, unlike extracts, the flower of the plant itself provides the medicine. “This will be crippling for the medical marijuana industry in Florida,” said Ben Pollara, executive director of Florida For Care. Nikki Fried pushes back on THC caps — In an email to supporters, Agriculture Commissioner Fried called the proposal for a cap on THC levels in medical marijuana “outrageous,” and the bill is, in effect, a “new tax on sick and suffering patients across the state.” As a longtime advocate for cannabis legalization, Fried promotes a petition from “Florida for Care,” to oppose the “arbitrary” tax. “Decisions on treatment should be between doctors and patients, not politicians,” She added. “Do reporters deserve hate crime protections? Sen. Cruz says yes.” via William March of The Tampa Bay Times — Cruz filed a bill for the upcoming Legislative Session that would extend the protection of the state’s hate crime statutes to reporters, increasing penalties for attacks on them. “I can’t stand by and watch people be attacked for the work they do in the noble profession of reporting what’s happening,” Cruz said in an interview. A functioning press, she said, is of particular importance during the pandemic and as the nation is dealing with unemployment and attempts to solve racial injustice. Cruz said she hasn’t researched attacks on journalists but believes there is a problem because of incidents, including attacks on journalists during the Jan. 6 invasion of the U.S. Capitol. Janet Cruz believes journalists shouldn't be attacked just for doing their jobs.

Under the House pandemic procedures, lobbyists and other visitors must register online at least three hours before committee meetings, show identification and pick up passes to gain access to meeting rooms. To adhere to social-distancing requirements during the 60-day Legislative Session, the House is offering limited seating on a “first-come, first-served basis” for committee meetings in which legislation is discussed. The updated House protocols won’t allow people who can’t get access to committee rooms to testify remotely from an overflow room, a change from the earlier coronavirus precautions.

With Uhlfelder’s retirement, admiring tributes like that are no exaggeration. For about a half-century, the Tallahassee lawyer quietly became one of Florida’s most respected and influential political insiders. Over the years, he’s worked with Democrat and Republican governors alike on education and mentoring programs. In a recent article about his activism, Uhlfelder indicated activism comes naturally to him. If I wasn’t raised the way I had been, I wouldn’t be doing this now,” he said.

The jump-start in dates will be discussed at a World Meteorological Organization meeting next month and could mean daily tropical weather forecasts issued by the National Hurricane Center will begin as early as May 15 this year. Dennis Feltgen, a meteorologist and spokesman for the NHC, said an official change in the start date would only come after a committee looked at storm data and examined the need and “potential ramifications of moving the beginning of the hurricane season to May 15.” “Nestlé sucks — literally — the lifeblood out of Florida’s precious freshwater springs” via Carl Hiaasen of The Miami Herald — The fate of one of Florida’s most fragile freshwater springs now is in the hands of the Nestlé company, which intends to drain nearly 1 million gallons a day and sell them back to us in plastic bottles. Last week, despite a tide of opposition, the Suwannee River Water Management District unanimously approved a controversial permit that will uncork a siphon from Ginnie Springs for the noble purpose of further enriching a multinational conglomerate. Not only is the state giving away precious water for free, but it’s allowing that to happen on a river system where the flows already have dwindled 30% to 40% below historic norms, according to the Florida Springs Institute. “Why are thousands of Republicans leaving the party?” via Christine Stapleton and Chris Persaud of The Palm Beach Post — The Florida Republican Party has lost thousands of voters since the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol last month and most of those leaving have renounced party labels altogether and become voters without a party. The overall number is low, a net loss of just under 5,000 voters. But it interrupts, at least for the moment, a yearslong trend in which GOP voter registrations outpaced those of rival Democrats. From 2016 through last fall's election, Florida Republicans picked up roughly 600,000 new voters, to top 5.1 million in the state. Democrats picked up just over 430,000 to reach 5.3 million, giving the party a 183,596-voter lead over Republicans among registered voters. Except they do — “Charlie Crist is eyeing a run for Governor again. Florida Democrats might not care.” via Gary Fineout of POLITICO — Rep. Crist switched parties almost a decade ago, but the party has moved on. As the former Republican prepares a potential bid to unseat 2022 DeSantis, the 64-year-old Crist must somehow convince skeptical Democrats that he can energize the diverse coalition that now makes up the party. Crist has reached out to political consultants, major donors, and longtime friends. Along the way, some of his past allies are beginning to work with other potential Democratic candidates.

The Serve America Movement is running candidates in a handful of states, banking on the appeal of a nonideological party. The outsized financial influence of donor Charles W.

Over those 12 months, Florida recorded nearly 1.9 million cases, more than 78,000 hospitalizations and more than 30,000 deaths. Florida had more COVID-19 deaths in a year than Canada and Australia combined, even though the two countries' combined population is triple that of Florida. The last year has been a disaster of historic proportions as a state dependent on tourists and filled with vulnerable elderly people, experienced a plague that had a particularly severe impact on travel and seniors. “COVID-19 cases among Florida seniors show sharp drop as DeSantis keeps vaccine focus on 65+ population” via David Fleshler and Cindy Krischer Goodman of The South Florida Sun-Sentinel — Cases of COVID-19 have plunged among Florida seniors, an encouraging sign for the group that’s suffered the largest number of Corona Florida deaths in the state and a strong indication the disease may finally be on the retreat. New cases dropped 56% in the past four weeks among people aged 65 and over, as survivors of disease benefited from their own immunity, and nearly half of seniors were shielded by vaccinations. DeSantis made Florida the first state to open up vaccinations to anyone aged 65 or older. And while this policy initially led to crashed websites and long lines as demand overwhelmed supply, it resulted in 45% of seniors receiving at least one dose. Ron DeSantis' push to vaccinate seniors first is having the intended effect.

As of 2 p.m. Sunday, the Florida Department of Health reported 1,909,221 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the state, an increase of 5,539 from Saturday’s update. The state also reported a single-day increase of 118 deaths. There are now 410,717 total confirmed cases in Miami-Dade County and 194,992 total cases in Broward. The total number of cases in Palm Beach County has now reached 120,735, and 5,857 total cases have been reported in Monroe County. —“Spread of COVID-19 nearing levels where it can be contained” via Jane Musgrave of The Palm Beach Post “DeSantis expands who can vaccinate medically vulnerable under 65” via Jeffrey Schweers for the Tallahassee Democrat — Doctors, pharmacies and advanced practice registered nurses can now vaccinate people under 65 whose medical conditions make them extremely vulnerable to the coronavirus. An executive order signed by DeSantis and quietly posted to his official website late Friday expands a Dec. 23 executive order that only allowed vaccine access through hospitals for those under 65 with what are called comorbidities, or other illnesses such as cancer. DeSantis also signed an executive order extending another 60 days his original declaration of a state of emergency last year. “Are ‘politics and personal relationships’ driving Florida’s vaccine distribution?” via Skyler Swisher of The South Florida Sun-Sentinel — As he readies for a reelection fight next year, DeSantis is facing a barrage of criticism and even calls for a federal investigation into whether he is using the lifesaving COVID-19 vaccine as a political tool to reward his supporters and donors. But is it true DeSantis’ vaccine distribution is politically biased? At issue are pop-up clinics, where the state visits 55-and-up communities with a large number of seniors and gives them vaccines where they live. Two of those pop-up clinics served upscale communities in Southwest Florida, including some with ties to a politically connected developer and GOP campaign donor. Is getting a vaccine based on who you know? Some critics say yes. “Publix COVID-19 vaccine deal with Florida raises questions” via Jeffrey Schweers of The Tallahassee Democrat — From day one, DeSantis touted the state’s “innovative partnership” with the Lakeland- based Publix supermarket chain in expanding the number of locations across the state for seniors 65 and over to get the COVID-19 vaccine. State officials have not provided an agreement, contract, or even any documentation outlining the terms of that partnership, even after giving Publix nearly 500,000 doses of the vaccine officials call “liquid gold.” DeSantis said the state was looking for retail partners and Publix stepped up to the plate. But critics say suddenly shifting such quantities to a single grocery store chain raises questions about how equitably the vaccine is being spread. “Vaccine pop-up clinics accused of favoritism draw strong community reaction” via Zac Anderson of The Sarasota Herald- Tribune — Questions about vaccine favoritism aren’t going away. They’re coming from people who argue that the governor is conferring an unfair competitive advantage on other developers by giving them access to the vaccine, and they’re coming from senior citizens who are still waiting in line to get the shot and resent seeing people skip ahead. When people know their place in line and eagerly are anticipating their number being called, hearing about others who got to skip ahead is bound to make them upset. If it’s perceived that people were able to jump ahead in line because they live in a community built by someone with political connections, that only adds to the perception that the process isn’t fair. Corona local Are Florida's pop-up clinics based on favoritism? “County aims to end vaccine desert on Palm Beach County coast” via Jane Musgrave of The Palm Beach Post — To fill a gaping hole that has made it difficult for seniors in Black neighborhoods to get the coronavirus vaccine, Palm Beach County leaders say they are planning to put an inoculation site at the Wells Recreation Center in Riviera Beach. The main stumbling block is that not enough vaccines are available, said County Administrator Verdenia Baker. Overall, only 4% of the shots administered in the county have gone to Blacks, even though they make up nearly 20% of the county’s population. Just 4.6% of the vaccines have gone to Hispanics, who comprise roughly 23.4% of the county’s 1.5 million residents. “Raymond James Stadium coronavirus vaccine site opening Monday” via Allison Ross of The Tampa Bay Times — The state- supported COVID-19 vaccine site that had been at Tampa’s University Mall will move to Raymond James Stadium on Monday. The decision to permanently relocate mass vaccinations to the stadium’s Lot 14 parking lot comes after the University Mall location reached gridlock in mid- February with long lines and confusion. According to a news release from the Florida Division of Emergency Management, the Raymond James vaccine site will be able to accommodate up to 3,200 people a day between first and second doses, according to a news release from the Florida Division of Emergency Management. That’s better than the University Mall, which struggled to keep up. Senior citizens waited in line for hours in standstill traffic. “CDC Director raises alarm as cases rise again, variants spread” via Josh Wingrove and Jill R Shah of Bloomberg — States should maintain COVID-19 restrictions such as mask-wearing and capacity limitations as case numbers halt their decline, the head of the U.S. CDC said Friday, citing the circulation of new variants and infection rates that remain alarmingly high. CDC Director Rochelle Walensky issued a sobering warning during a press briefing Friday, where she said the more contagious B.1.1.7 variant, first found in the U.K., now accounts for an estimated 10% of current U.S. cases, and that variants in California and New York also appear to spread more easily. Corona nation Rochelle Walensky brings some sobering news about variants. “J&J’s one-shot COVID-19 vaccine receives FDA advisers’ backing” via Robert Langreth and Riley Griffin of Bloomberg — Johnson & Johnson’s single-shot coronavirus vaccine won the backing of a panel of U.S. government advisers, paving the way for authorization of the country’s third immunization against the deadly virus. Experts advising the FDA voted 22-0, with no abstentions, that the benefits of the vaccine outweigh its risks in adults 18 and older, a decision that could help bolster the vaccine supply as new variants continue to spread. The FDA usually follows the nonbinding recommendations of its advisory panels and could authorize the shot within days. The J&J candidate is highly anticipated because it can be kept in a refrigerator for three months, an advantage over the mRNA vaccines that must be frozen when stored for longer periods, and its single-shot regime. “We’ll never reach herd immunity if we don’t vaccinate more non- White people” via Gregg Gonsalves, Amy Kapczynski and David Heramn of The Washington Post — States have taken wildly different approaches to vaccine distribution, but one thing unites them: Many of their most at-risk residents, particularly in communities of color, are being left behind. This doesn’t just cost lives. It also undermines our ability to achieve herd immunity, the point at which enough people are vaccinated to provide protection for a whole community. But rather than address those realities head-on, some states, encouraged by the Donald Trump administration, began giving up and pivoting to a stripped-down strategy of first-come-first-served within broad age- based categories. “Supreme Court again allows indoor church services, lifts ban” via Greg Stohr of Bloomberg — The U.S. Supreme Court said a California county must let five churches hold indoor services, adding to a line of orders that have curbed the power of government officials as they battle the spread of the coronavirus. The latest high court action follows a Feb. 6 order that let indoor worship services resume in most of California at 25% capacity. The court’s unsigned one-paragraph order said the outcome “is clearly dictated” by the earlier decision. The three liberal justices, Elena Kagan, Stephen Breyer and Sonia Sotomayor, dissented. Santa Clara County, which includes San Jose, said its ban remained valid because it was part of a broader prohibition on indoor gatherings at both religious and secular establishments. “House passes Joe Biden's COVID-19 relief bill with $1,400 stimulus checks, legislation heads to Senate” via Ledyard King, Nicholas Wu, Christal Hayres of USA Today — The Democratically- controlled House approved Biden's $1.9 trillion COVID relief package early Saturday, a key step for a measure that would provide millions of Americans $1,400 stimulus payments, ramp up vaccine distribution and extend unemployment aid through the summer. The bill, known as the Corona economics American Rescue Plan, passed 219-212. No Republicans voted for it, and two Democrats voted against it: Rep. Kurt Schrader and Jared Golden. The measure now heads to the Senate where it faces a rocky path in the evenly divided chamber. The president will have to count on every one of the 50 Democratic Senators and a tiebreaking 51st vote from Vice President Kamala Harris to make sure its key pillars remain in the bill. “Pandemic grief could become its own health crisis” via Hope Edelman of The Washington Post — As the nation mourns more than 500,000 lives lost a year into the coronavirus pandemic, another pandemic wave is building grief. It poses a potential public health crisis of its own. For the past century, Americans’ response to grief has been to minimize its impact and suppress emotional pain. We treat grieving as an individual affair, with mourners responsible for “getting over” their losses, mostly in private. Social isolation during the pandemic has made grieving even more solitary. But grief wasn’t always treated this way. For centuries, communities came together to mourn the passing of an individual as a loss to the polity. Victorian mourning practices were extravagant social affairs involving rituals that the bereaved and fellow citizens followed for months, sometimes years, after a death. “Vaccine lotteries and personal appeals: The medically vulnerable find their priority status slipping away” via Lena H. Sun and Isaac Stanley-Becker of The Washington Post — An estimated 81 million adults have conditions that the CDC identifies as posing an increased risk for severe COVID-19, the illness caused by the coronavirus. But those recommendations have plainly become unworkable, as states veer from federal guidelines and chart their own paths, often in seemingly random ways. The result: Access to a shot can depend on what side of a state line you live on. —“Queen Elizabeth II recalls COVID-19 vaccination: 'It was quite harmless, very quick'” via The Associated Press More corona “Biden tells the world ‘America is back.’ The world isn’t so sure.” via Anne Gearan and Ashley Parker of The Washington Post — For Biden and his circle, a low point in America’s global standing under President Donald Trump came when he blew up a meeting of U.S. allies in 2018, accusing close partners of “robbing” the United States and hurling insults at his Canadian host. So it was no accident that Biden’s push to reclaim American leadership in recent days has pointedly included a starring role for Canada, as the new administration seeks to woo an array of allies with a message that “America is back.” Allies know Trumpism could always come back, either in a 2024 bid by Trump himself or from another presidential hopeful offering a similar pitch, hindering Biden’s efforts. Presidential America is back, Joe Biden says.

It’s a wonky, Washington dilemma with real-world implications for millions of people, determining everything from the future of a minimum wage hike to voting access. It will also shape Biden’s ability to keep two restive wings of the Democratic Party united: swing state moderates wary of the appearance of effectively giving up on bipartisanship and more progressive Democrats who argue that Republicans aren’t coming along anyway. “Biden team readies infrastructure package as follow-up to COVID- 19 relief” via The Associated Press — Looking beyond the $1.9 trillion COVID relief bill, President Biden and lawmakers are laying the groundwork for another top legislative priority, a long-sought boost to the nation’s roads, bridges and other infrastructure that could run into Republican resistance to a hefty price tag. Biden and his team have begun discussions on the possible outlines of an infrastructure package with members of Congress, particularly mindful that Texas’ recent struggles with power outages and water shortages after a brutal winter storm present an opportunity for agreement on sustained spending on infrastructure. “Biden revokes a Donald Trump order seeking ‘classical’ civic architecture” via Zachary Small of The New York Times — An executive order that former President Trump issued in the waning days of his administration, which sought to make classical architecture the default style for new federal buildings, was revoked this week by President Biden as the White House continues its sweeping rollback of the previous administration’s policies. Though the Trump-issued order stopped short of banning newer designs from consideration, it was strongly condemned by several prominent architects and architectural associations for trying to impose an official, preferred national style. “Corporate America and Biden have a budding love affair. But a lot has to happen before Democrats can become the party of Big Business.” via Dave Levinthal of Business Insider — Increases in the federal minimum wage, higher corporate taxes, and stricter environmental regulations are among issues that could dampen any affection between Biden and big business. But leaders and lobbyists for 10 of the nation's top trade and business groups said that they had encouraging early conversations with President Biden and administration officials. All signaled enthusiasm for at least some of the items on Biden's business agenda and described common interest in COVID-19 relief, infrastructure investment, and immigration reform. “Trump wins CPAC straw poll, but only 68% want him to run again” via Elaina Plott and Shane Goldmacher of The New York Times — Nearly four months after he lost the 2020 election, Trump was able to celebrate being a winner again on Sunday, after he captured the 2024 presidential straw poll of the Conservative Political Action Conference, while DeSantis of Florida finished first in a second 2024 straw poll covering a field of potential candidates that did not include Trump. But in a surprise bit of downbeat news for Trump, only 68% of those at the conference said they wanted the former president to run again in 2024. Far more attendees, 95%, said they wanted the Republican Party to advance Trump’s policies and agenda than endorsed him running again, even as the mere mention of Trump’s name earned loud applause throughout the three-day gathering of activists. “At conservative conference, Trump’s election falsehoods flourish” via David Weigel of The Washington Post — The Republican Party on display at CPAC this weekend was antimonopoly, anti-free trade, skeptical of foreign wars, girded for economic conflict with China and frequently invested in things that aren’t true. Election myths were mentioned often, though rarely the damage they’d led to on Jan. 6. Some conservatives tried to advance the issue by laying out voting restrictions they said would solve problems. They suggested that the election had not been honest, a topic that spilled from panel to panel, fact or no fact. A breakout Session hosted by Republican election lawyers and a Georgia county GOP chair found questioners and panelists debating which of the fraud theories they could believe. CPAC recap “CPAC puts a bull’s-eye on China” via Gabby Orr and Nahal Toosi of POLITICO — Trump loomed large over day one of the 2021 CPAC. This year’s CPAC agenda features six panels in which China is a key theme, with titles ranging from “China Subverts America” to “Corporate America Surrendering to China.” The geopolitical challenges posed by China are also likely to come up in the speeches of several 2024 hopefuls using the conference to road-test new messages. CPAC’s focus on China is indicative of broader, and bipartisan, alarm in Washington over Beijing’s ambitions on the global stage, as well as a sign that Republicans see some Democratic vulnerability on the topic. “DeSantis tells conservatives Florida is an 'oasis of freedom' under his leadership” via John Kennedy of The Palm Beach Post — DeSantis fired up a crowd of conservative activists and donors gathered Friday in Orlando, urging them to “hold the line, stand your ground and don’t ever, ever back down.” Speaking at the CPAC, DeSantis seized his opportunity on the national stage to tout keeping the Florida economy and schools open through much of the COVID-19 crisis, overseeing a smooth election last fall, and now advancing a policy agenda certain to antagonize his Democratic opponents. “We are an oasis of freedom in a nation that is suffering in many parts of the country under the yoke of oppressive lockdowns,” DeSantis said. DeSantis hasn’t yet announced his candidacy for reelection next year, but most see that as a certainty. Ron DeSantis makes a splash at CPAC. Image via AP. “CPAC hosts booed for asking attendees to wear masks” via Quint Forgey of POLITICO — Organizers of the Conservative Political Action Conference were met with boos on Friday morning as they encouraged the crowd inside a Florida hotel ballroom to put on face masks in compliance with the host venue’s policies. The awkward moment unfolded early on the first day of programming at the American Conservative Union’s annual confab and represented a confusing shift in rhetoric from prior speakers who uniformly mocked coronavirus- related restrictions in a series of sharply partisan remarks. The comments particularly clashed with earlier remarks by ACU Chair Matt Schlapp and DeSantis, who boasted at the opening of Day One of the conference: “Welcome to our oasis of freedom!” “CPAC is missing students and its legendary party scene. Republicans are concerned the low-energy event reflects the GOP's standing with young voters in a post-Trump world.” via Tom LoBianco of Business Insider — The lack of eager right-leaning teenagers and 20-somethings collecting free swag and chugging beers is one of the most glaring and obvious contrasts from the annual conservative conferences held during the before times in and around Washington, DC. In past years, student attendance has accounted for up to 55% of the people who showed up to CPAC. The missing student mojo has left Republicans searching for reasons why this year's CPAC is so, well, low energy. Some say it's thanks to the general exhaustion after Trump's exit from the White House. Others blame the pandemic. “Trump’s baseless election claims march GOP into ‘policy wasteland’” via David Siders of POLITICO — In the post-Trump era, judging by the fare inside the Orlando ballroom where the CPAC unfolded, the GOP has evolved into the party of precisely two ideas: re- litigating Trump’s defeat and seething over the de-platforming of the former president and his supporters. Conservatives spent the weekend clinging to the false claim that Trump’s presidency was stolen from him and raging over the perceived “cancel culture” of Big Tech and the left. Nearly four months after the election and one month into Biden’s presidency, the politics of grievance has become the near-singular organizing principle of the post-Trump GOP. Epilogue: Trump Donald Trump at CPAC was mainly an airing of grievances. “Rick Scott: GOP is ‘voters' party,’ not Trump's” via Quint Forgey of POLITICO — Sen. Scott on Sunday declined to call the GOP the party of former President Trump and acknowledged President Biden was “absolutely” the legitimate winner of the 2020 White House race. But Scott’s remarks to host Chris Wallace also underscored the tense intraparty disputes he is navigating as he leads the GOP effort to retake the Senate in the 2022 midterm elections. Despite Trump’s threats to support primary challenges to certain GOP officials, Scott stressed that he would back incumbent Republicans in the midterm races. Scott also did not hesitate to declare that Biden had won the presidency fair and square last November. “How Trump upended the race to control the House through 2030” via Ally Mutnick and Elena Schneider of POLITICO — Days after the 2020 election, House Democrats convened to address some of the party’s most surprising losses, and Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chair Cheri Bustos name-checked one in particular: Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, a freshman from South Florida. Party data missed a huge surge to the right in her Miami-based district, where voters backed Hillary Clinton by 16 points in 2016 and then voted for former President Trump by more than 5 points in 2020, after he rebounded with Cuban Americans and other Latino groups. “Allies of Rep. Adam Kinzinger launch new super PAC to support Republicans who have bucked Trump” via Josh Dawsey of The Washington Post — Allies of Kinzinger are launching a new super PAC to collect large sums of money to support Republicans willing to buck Trump, the latest sign of the party’s deepening internecine war. Kinzinger, who has already started a leadership PAC to directly support GOP candidates who have gone up against Trump, is expected to appear at fundraising events for the new super PAC, called Americans Keeping Country First. Founders of the group are also launching a sister nonprofit group to “build a grassroots army.” “FBI focuses on video of Capitol Police officer being sprayed with chemicals before he died in pro-Trump riot” via Matt Zapotosky and Spencer S. Hsu of The Washington Post — Investigators have uncovered video appearing to show someone spraying a chemical irritant at Capitol Police Officer Brian D. Sicknick and other law enforcement personnel fending off rioters in last month’s attack, though they have yet to identify the person or tie the activity directly to Sicknick’s death, according to people familiar with the matter. Sicknick’s death has vexed investigators exploring the Jan. 6 riot, as they have struggled to figure out how precisely he died and whether someone could be held criminally accountable in connection with the death. D.C. matters Chemical sprays during The Capitol riot may have caused the death of Brian Sicknick. Image via AP. “U.S. Capitol security review set to call for adding more than 1,000 police officers and retractable fencing” via Jim Sciutto and Zachary Cohen of CNN — A review of US Capitol security in the wake of the January 6 insurrection is set to recommend a series of sweeping changes next week intended to better protect lawmakers while they are in Washington, D.C., and at home, according to two sources with direct knowledge of the findings. Both sources told CNN that a draft of the proposal recommends adding more than 1,000 US Capitol police officers, establishing a dedicated quick reaction force, and building an integrated system of walls and fences around the Capitol complex. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi directed retired Lt. General Russel Honoré to conduct an independent review of the Capitol's security presence last month after a pro-Trump mob breached the building. “‘Blame Trump’ defense in Capitol riot looks like a long shot” via Michel Kunzelman and Alanna Durkin Richer of The Associated Press — Facing damning evidence in the deadly Capitol siege last month, rioters are arguing in court they were following then-President Trump’s instructions on Jan. 6. But the legal strategy has already been shot down by at least one judge and experts believe the argument is not likely to get anyone off the hook for the insurrection where five people died, including a police officer. While experts say blaming Trump may not get their clients off the hook, it may help at sentencing when they ask the judge for leniency. Blaming Donald Trump for the riots is a long-shot defense. Image via AP. “Trump kept them out to protect jobs. Now, these immigrants are getting green cards” via Daniel Shoer Roth of The Miami Herald — Ending a ban on legal immigration imposed last year, Biden reopened the country this week to thousands of people who won the 2020 Diversity Immigrant Visa Program but couldn’t come to the U.S. because of an order by Trump. Biden’s Proclamation on Revoking Proclamation 10014 says that Trump’s measure, aimed at protecting American jobs during the pandemic, did “not advance the interest of the United States.” The executive order signed Wednesday specifically mentions immigrants selected in the Fiscal Year 2020 Diversity Visa Lottery, which allocated up to 55,000 permanent resident cards for immigrants with historically low immigration rates to the U.S. Assignment editors — Crist will host a news conference on the impacts of vaccine inequity in underrepresented communities, 10:30 a.m., Enoch Davis Center, 1111 18th Ave South, St. Petersburg.

Francis Suarez talks tech recruitment, COVID-19 fight in Axios interview — The Miami Mayor earned the closing segment in Sunday’s Axios on HBO broadcast. He used it to talk about his months-long crusade to bring tech firms to the city, while also hitting Gov. DeSantis over his COVID-19 policy. “As a city, we’re not allowed to mitigate as much as we would like,” Suarez said in explaining Miami’s struggles with the virus. “The Governor right now has preempted cities from implementing fines for [not wearing] masks in public, which I think is important. I think that would have helped tremendously.” Asked whether those state economic policies are helping attract new businesses, Suarez conceded, “There’s no doubt.” “With Integral, everyone could be a winner in Universal’s Housing for Tomorrow project” via Peter Schorsch of Florida Politics — Heads up, Florida tourism, real estate, and housing leaders. It appears that one of the major players in this competitive field, minority-owned and Local notes led Integral, is looking to come to the Orlando area and positively transform a key part of the community. Will undoubtedly cite its role as the nation’s original Hope VI housing leader and its calling card of sustainable, resident-focused design as leaders from Orange County and Universal Parks and Resorts Studios Orlando reflect on presentations for the region’s historic 1,000-unit Housing for Tomorrow project. “The Manatee County Commission deserves to be bashed” via Chris Anderson of The Sarasota Herald-Tribune — The Bradenton Herald did the residents of Manatee County a tremendous service recently by exposing that Commission Chair Vanessa Baugh indeed had a personal list of five people she wanted to be vaccinated ahead of so many others who played by the rules and signed up for the countywide lottery. Included on the list: Herself. And four of her friends. She (kind of) apologized and then blamed the media. Baugh may have broken state law by using public office for personal gain, news so fake that an investigation by the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office is now underway. Vanessa Baugh brought all this on herself. “Sarasota County Sheriff Kurt Hoffman attended multiple conspiracy theory events during campaign” via Timothy Fanning of The Sarasota Herald-Tribune — Sheriff Hoffman criticized the Herald- Tribune for its reporting on a photograph taken during his campaign last year in which he posed with a woman connected to a prominent conspiracy theory group. Hoffman accused the newspaper of “attacking conservative leaders” and said he had not heard of QAnon, a group now labeled by the FBI as a domestic terrorist organization. He also disavowed any connection to the complicated pro-Trump conspiracy theory movement whose members were among those who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. During his campaign last year, Hoffman attended or spoke during at least three events that also prominently featured QAnon and other fringe organizations. “U.S. Attorney Larry Keefe stepping down amid federal prosecutor transition” via Jeff Burlew of The Tallahassee Democrat — Despite an intense behind-the-scenes lobbying effort to keep him, Keefe will not stay on as top federal prosecutor for the Northern District of Florida. Keefe, along with several dozen other U.S. attorneys nominated by Trump, submitted his letter of resignation at the behest of Biden. Keefe, one of the more visible U.S. attorneys to serve over the years in the Northern District of Florida, officially steps down midnight Sunday after a little more than two years in the post. He and others were asked to tender their resignations by Sunday. “Losing candidate drops lawsuit challenging Fort Lauderdale mayor’s race” via Susannah Bryan of The South Florida Sun-Sentinel — Failed mayoral candidate Ken Cooper has decided to walk away from the lawsuit he filed contesting the results of the Nov. 3 race. Cooper lost the Fort Lauderdale mayor’s race to incumbent Dean Trantalis, 67, by 12,820 votes. Cooper’s lawsuit demanded that he be named mayor and that all 43,803 mail-in ballots cast in the election be thrown out. The suit, filed in Broward Circuit Court on Nov. 23, named Trantalis as a defendant along with Peter Antonacci, Broward’s supervisor of elections at the time of the election; Michael Udine, a county commissioner who served as chair of the Broward County Canvassing Board; and Daniel Kanner, a member of the Canvassing Board. What Lauren Book is reading and justifiably pissed off about — “Pediatrician, facing child porn charges, now wants to see young patients online” via Marc Freeman of The South Florida Sun-Sentinel — The criminal allegations say a Broward pediatrician kept computer photos of children as young as 10 not wearing clothes. And now the same doctor wants to get back on his laptop and continue treating young patients online, records show. Dr. Michael Mizrachy, who remains licensed by the state to practice medicine, wants to remove a court restriction against his access to the internet, despite the child pornography charges against him. It’s common for people arrested on such crimes to lose computer privileges while cases are pending. “'It's so immense': Protesters build wall to protest One Naples project as key vote approaches” via Laura Layden of The Naples Daily News — With a makeshift wall, opponents of One Naples attempted to demonstrate one of their biggest fears about the development. On Saturday, some of the most active and vocal residents against the proposed luxury high-rise development assembled and hoisted a wall near its site, one block from Vanderbilt Beach, in North Naples. The objectors designed the wall to mimic an L- shaped parking structure that would go near the roadside. In their eyes, it would stand too close to Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive, creating an urban canyon for passersby. Residents build a wall to protest the ambitious One Naples development project. “Mike Huckabee sells Blue Mountain Beach home for $9.4 million” via Jim Thompson of Northwest Florida Daily News — Huckabee and his wife Janet have sold their South Walton County beachfront home for $9.4 million, the real estate agent who represented the buyers has confirmed. Joe Burton, who specializes in selling properties along and near County Road 30A, would say only that the buyers are out-of-state residents. Burton said they will use the home as a second residence and will not offer it as a vacation rental property. According to Walton County tax records, the three-story stucco home, with a concrete tile roof, comprises a total of 10,900 square feet, with 8,277 square feet of heated space. The house, built in 2011, has six bedrooms and 7.5 bathrooms. “How this summer could bring the pandemic relief we’re longing for” via William Wan of The Washington Post — There is a good chance that by summer, American life will look and feel very different. Eating inside a restaurant or a friend’s house may no longer be controversial. Cookouts and summer vacations may return. Many aspects of life will be reminiscent of a time before the coronavirus, as long as vaccinations continue to increase and Americans stay careful during the spring, when more highly transmissible variants could proliferate and lead to an increase in cases. By July 1, roughly 56% of the U.S. population, about 185 million people could be vaccinated with at least their first dose. Top opinion “Hey Ron DeSantis, why so cagey with COVID-19 vaccine details?” via The Tampa Bay Times editorial board — Your “no-plan is a good Opinions plan” mantra isn’t playing well in some circles, though in your defense those circles are densely populated with people who would criticize you no matter what you did. We’re on board with keeping the distribution plan simple. No need for an overly complex blueprint that will inevitably have to be ripped up every week. As you know, older residents have suffered an overwhelming number of COVID-19 deaths. We would have started with people over 75 years old to cut down on the initial rush, but we get the reasoning behind your decision to begin with 65 and up. More recently, you criticized Biden's idea of creating more vaccination sites before rightly coming around to the idea. “Five ways Florida lawmakers can make the state a better place” via The Tampa Bay Times editorial board — Florida’s annual two- month Legislative Session opens Tuesday. Legislators must eventually pass a budget, but they can consider a legion of potential new laws and tweaks to existing ones along the way. The state should also consider pulling back on the current requirement that prisoners complete at least 85% of their sentences before being considered for early release. The state doesn’t need new toll roads. The money would be far better spent improving the existing road system. Florida law should quit coddling the Confederacy. Fund Florida Forever. Collect internet sales tax. Kill the anti-protest bill. “'Employment wages' shouldn't be a factor in funding Florida college scholarships” via Frank Cerabino of The Palm Beach Post — There’s a move in the Florida Legislature to cut public scholarship funding to college students who are majoring in areas of study that don’t have a clear, immediate path to employment after they graduate. Its author, Sen. Dennis Baxley, who operates funeral homes in Florida, was a sociology major who minored in psychology in college. Under the bill, state education leaders would meet every year to approve a list of degree programs that would be fully funded for scholarships and tuition- assistance grants. Students in degree programs that don’t make the approved list of employable majors would receive a reduced amount of financial support. “This change to Bright Futures would be a major mistake” via Mark Woods of The Florida Times-Union — Since 1997, Florida has been using lottery money to offer students an incentive to stay in Florida for college. If high school students achieve a certain level of grade-point average and test scores, they’re rewarded with Bright Futures. It’s good for the students and for the state. This is what Baxley’s bill would change: If students are majoring in a program that does not “lead directly to employment,” the state will reduce their scholarships. Under the bill, starting in 2022, the Board of Governors and State Board of Education would put together a list of programs that they determine lead directly to employment. The list would be updated annually. “Micro-schools could be answer for low-income Black students” via Glenton Gilzean Jr. for The Orlando Sentinel — For generations, children in low-income Black communities have endured a subpar education model and these underperforming schools not only hurt our children, but our entire community. Imagine a school with only a handful of students, learning in a safe and welcoming environment. With such small numbers, their teacher can work with each student, developing and following a personalized learning plan. If the state passes a new educational choice bill, this can become a reality for those in underserved communities too. “Change to Florida’s sex-ed policy takes unwise risk with teenagers’ health” via The Tampa Bay Times editorial board — Science-based sex education should be an important part of the public school curriculum. But a bill pending in the Legislature would require written consent from parents before students can receive sex ed instruction, creating a higher hurdle than the current opt-out policy. Florida requires comprehensive health education in public schools that emphasize the benefits of abstinence and the consequences of teenage pregnancy. Beyond that, individual school districts decide what to teach kids about sex. The law says school officials should choose an “appropriate curriculum which reflects local values and concerns.” “Chris Hart: This Session we must start fixing Clerk Services funding” via Florida Politics — Florida’s Clerks of Court and Comptrollers (Clerks) have more than 1,000 constitutional and statutory duties and provide many public services, are at risk due to an outdated and flawed funding system that consistently fails to support them. Some services come with a fee or service charge that supports their availability. But there are many others that are processed at no cost. This is good public policy and the right thing to do for citizens in need. Budget reductions, compounded by the financial impacts of COVID-19, have caused Clerks to take drastic measures that include staff layoffs, reduced operational hours and branch closures. This perilous funding position has also caused a vulnerability for access to crucial emergency court services. The 2021 Legislative Session is about to begin. Also, on today’s Sunrise: — The Session beginning tomorrow is like nothing we’ve seen or heard before, thanks to the COVID-19 crisis. The people who run the legislature have imposed new restrictions and have all but closed The Capitol to the public in order to reduce the threat of infection. But by doing so, they may have cut the public out of the process. — Officials with the League of Women Voters, Florida Rising, Common Cause and the Southern Poverty Law Center all believe lawmakers are taking advantage of the pandemic limits on public participation to advance a far-right agenda without having to look their victims in the eye. — Speaking of conservative agendas, DeSantis had a starring role at On today's Sunrise the CPAC convention in Orlando over the weekend. The Governor used that platform to unveil the “DeSantis Doctrine,” saying this is NOT your father’s GOP. — DeSantis urged conservatives to follow the example set by Rush Limbaugh, who turned talk radio into a partisan political weapon after the repeal of what was known as the “Fairness Doctrine.” — The Governor signed an executive order modifying the COVID-19 vaccine program. Shots are still set aside for seniors, but the new order allows physicians, nurses and pharmacists to vaccinate people under the age of 65 if they have medical conditions making them extremely vulnerable to COVID-19. It will be interesting to see how many people suddenly discover they have those conditions. — Speaking of COVID-19, the state reported 126 new fatalities Sunday; 1,127 names were added over the past week over the past week and the death toll has reached 31,406. — And finally, two Florida Women who were dealing with stun guns and parking problems.

Jordan tried to develop a Black Superman project when he first arrived at the studio with his deal in 2019, but that did not go very far.

It’s a three-wheel, ultra-aerodynamic electric vehicle covered in 34 square feet of solar cells. The car is so efficient that, on a clear day, those cells alone could provide enough energy to drive about 40 miles, more than twice the distance of the average American’s commute. The Aptera must undergo safety tests before the company can begin distribution, which it hopes to do by the end of this year.

Please accept our most sincere "thank you" and know how much it is appreciated. We find this whole One Naples project as totally unconscionable on many levels. It is amazing that Stock Development and their allies continue to pursue it when we have seen the consternation of thousands of opponents. People do not want this project. Yet a handful of powerful decision makers are / or seem to be in support. For ordinary citizens who rarely interact with government on the policy level and live their daily lives in a rather rational way trying to do the right thing, it is very hard for them to comprehend why something like One Naples would ever get to this state of the approval process. It was wrong when it was introduced, and its status of acceptability has not improved.

Your ability to understand and engage on the issues is greatly appreciated and much admired. Mar 1st will essentially mark the one year anniversary of the NIM meeting hosted at St. John’s. As you know, we are effectively an all volunteer group...we have spent untold time, effort and resources during the past year trying be respectful but yet assertive in communicating our displeasure to Stock...hoping he would develop a plan that is consistent and compatible with the neighborhoods. He has refused to do so. Consequently, if the Commission approves the GMP amendment and any zoning adjustments close to his submission, the quality of life index for Collier County residents will begin its predictable deterioration. You have been a beacon of hope in a regulatory process that is deeply flawed and controlled by economics.

And bringing Mr. Klatzkow to the meeting provided us with even more understanding on how best to advance our cause. We have already discussed our strategy with our team. We are absolutely shocked that this is how business is conducted in Collier County. No reasonable, informed person would approve this ridiculous and insidious Stock Development monstrosity. Yet we find ourselves in the fight of our zoning life to prevent for ourselves and future generations, something so unwanted, yet protected by a tiny number of decision makers. Many thanks to you for being receptive to our perception of One Naples. We now know what you went through, back in the '80's, with the Coastland Mall expansion. Following are our points of opposition to this attempt to subvert many zoning codes, covenants and rules for the benefit of one person/entity, Stock Development: Hundreds of residents in the Pelican Bay area attended Stock Development’s NIM presentations and initially (and overwhelmingly) expressed opposition to the project for numerous reasons and yet, Stock Development was willing to make only minor concessions. 2,769 individual residents signed a petition opposing One Naples as proposed. We provided a full list of the 2,769 PB area residents for you to see that resident objection was significant, not ballot stuffed and was carefully scrubbed for duplicate signatures. 20,000+ E-mail letters have collectively been sent to the CCPC and BCC Commissioners. We are sorry you found receiving the same letter copy from the residents annoying, but each signature was individually added to each letter. While the message may be the same, the letter signers were not. Each was unique. It is not our intention to offend anybody nor to be offended ourselves. The major problem that Pelican Bay residents point out and continually complain about is the never-ending traffic backups on Vanderbilt Beach Road west of Rt 41 down to the beach. During the Stock presentations to residents this problem was repeatedly raised along with the safety concerns of concentrating walkers, bikers, and vehicles on very narrow one lane in each direction roadways. The Stock groups answers to the numerous traffic questions did not address the actual problem of the roads and walkways being too narrow to handle current traffic loads. During a private discussion with a PBPOA Board member, Brian Stock and one of his associates, acknowledged their solutions were only minor improvements and they were hoping for a County solution. The County study said Vanderbilt Road is currently not overused based on their survey. How could that be possible? When we spoke with you, you acknowledged you were aware that once a vehicle entered Vanderbilt Beach Road west of North Pointe Dr., you could not exit or easily turn around until you traveled west to the beach and North on Gulf Shore Drive to Immokalee Road. This problem alone should be a major red flag and a good reason to say no to this project because of the traffic density it adds to the area. And, please remember, over the 100 year life of this project, as proposed, thousands of additional people will be residents of Collier County and using the roads and beaches. It’s important to remember that there are three Public Service operations, EMS, the Sheriff Department substation and the Fire Department that feed into Vanderbilt Beach Road west of US 41. It is irresponsible to not recognize the impact that the additional traffic over the many years of this project’s life will negatively impact response times. Absolutely nobody benefits from this dynamic! Many residents pointed out that the addition of a marina with 99 boat slips for commercial and local fishing boats will attract shark to the beach as food in the area increases when fisherman clean their catch and discard unwanted fish. Look at how shark sightings on the east coast beaches have negatively impacted beach tourism in that area. Stock’s attorney repeatedly claimed during the Planning Commission meetings that the One Naples high rise building heights and setbacks are compatible with other Pelican Bay Buildings. This is simply not true and resulted in the Pelican Bay Foundation sending a clarifying letter stating the neighborhoods to the south, north and east of PB are vastly different and cannot be compared to One Naples due to the limited space they have to build and comply with current codes. Just the Ritz is on 26.22 acres. That whole Stock Monstrosity is on 5.4 acres with the County kicking in right of ways! In addition to the above, local residents responding to our surveys repeatedly pointed out that One Naples is neither compatible nor complimentary with the existing neighborhood environment or a benefit to the local community due to: Lack of parking Building heights Loss of views Lack of open green space Lack of adequate building setbacks Loss of property values Marina Impact on beach goers Neighborhood interests not being served Pedestrian/Auto/Biker safety Issues Current traffic congestion on Vanderbilt Beach Road, Gulf Shore Drive, and Immokalee Road. Limited Capacity at Vanderbilt Beach Non-compliance with current Land Development Codes Thousands of residents from Pelican Bay and groups from Vanderbilt Beach, Naples Park, Pelican Marsh, Pelican Ridge, Pine Ridge Estates, Palm River plus many of the other surrounding communities have gone to great lengths (and at a great expense of $100,000+ might we add) to let the Collier County Planning Commission and the Board of County Commissioners know that One Naples is the wrong project, in the wrong space, at the wrong time and does nothing at all to benefit the community. Given the 3 to 3 CCPC vote after 3 days of hearings, it’s obvious that this GMPA is full of deviations that make it incompatible with the surrounding community and sets a bad precedent for future projects. It’s also obvious that Stock Development is unwilling to compromise on the scale and density of this project, so we are, therefore, asking you to do the right thing and “Vote NO” on One Naples. Please follow the "Will of the people" and not the "Will of the Stock." Thank you for your service to all of us in Collier County and particularly to your District 2 constituents.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioners: The approval of One Naples will have a highly deleterious effect on beach access for the inland population of Collier County. Consider 172 units occupied by the very rich immediately across from Vanderbilt Beach. During peak weeks, such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, Presidents Birthdays, those residents and their family guests could add as many as 500 - 800 people to the crowd at Vanderbilt Beach. Next door, the expansion of the Ritz will convert 100 rooms to suites and add 24 new suites, creating the potential for another 200 beachgoers. All these people will get to the beach before inland residents from Naples Park, Pelican Marsh, the Quarry, Golden Gate, Immokolee, etc., effectively displacing the working and middle class of Collier County. Is this a consequence you are prepared to address in the future? It's also worth noting that the recently proposed Clam Pass garage, at I believe an estimated cost of $8 million, would have added about 200 parking spaces and hence provided access to about 1000 more residents. So by approving One Naples you would create the need to spend $8 million just to recover the lost beach capacity. Such an expansion was opposed by environmentalists, numerous Pelican Bay neighborhoods and businesses, and Park Shore residents, but the Pelican Bay Board, whose approval is necessary, was willing to give the proposal a fair hearing given the importance of beach access for the general public in Collier County. Please know that as a current Director of the Pelican Bay Foundation and speaking solely for myself, I would find it difficult to support a garage in Clam Pass Park as the answer to a self inflicted beach capacity shortage created solely by your approval of One Naples. I would also do my best to convince my fellow Directors to adopt a similar view. Please, as you consider One Naples, remember the inland population of Collier County, and respect their need for beach access rather than the interests of a private developer seeking excessive gains at the expense of all concerned.

As a courtesy I am copying the other four elected officials, along with my clients. Finally, please note that these are development performance standards and not overall ordinance conditions. For example, from a review of the proposed MPUD ordinance and other documents I did not see a prohibition or restriction of constructing one massive tower on Tract MU One. This was a commitment made by the Applicant's attorney during the Planning and Zoning Commission hearing in response to an Anthony Pires question and concern. That commitment was to tie the One Naples illustration plan (the plan with the footprints and the basis for the landscape architecture plans) into the regulatory structure and ordinance. So obviously, that will be required by the Applicant and Staff. October 2020 Original Staff Minimal Recommended Conditions w./No Optional 15-ft Setback 1. Maximum building height for all Tracts is 76 feet zoned, except that Tract 1 can be increased to ±125 feet zoned height if step back architecture is used for the upper floors of buildings. 2.

Comparing Stock Development’s two (proposed) 16-story, 208-foot skyscrapers to the 215-foot Ritz-Carlton across Vanderbilt Beach Road is not a viable comparison because the two areas are unrelated. The One Naples skyscrapers would be way taller than all nearby buildings in the neighborhood on the same side of Vanderbilt Beach Road. To be fair, Collier County should compare height and surrounding acreage. The Pelican Bay (neighborhood) buildings (including The Ritz-Carlton) have large, healthful open-air spaces between them and are surrounded by acres of lakes, walking trails, magnifi cent mangroves, tennis courts, trees and foliage. Plus, they have private beach access; One Naples would not. Collier County must not permit North Naples’ coveted public Vanderbilt Beach to become a private beach for Stock’s high-rise condos. How many One Naples residents and their friends, with no private beach access of their own, will take the time to be transported to another beach when they can just walk across the street to the public beach? This serious public beach problem must be prevented. Beach access could be the reason this property was never zoned to be a high- density residential location. A charming low-density residential and commercial village would be exciting and provide some essential services, shops and restaurants to the immediate area, all within walking and biking distance for nearby residents and hotel guests.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: I am a resident of Regatta at Vanderbilt Beach and I support smart, managed growth and development in accordance with the stated objectives of the Land Development Code of Collier County. Stock’s current proposals blatantly conflict with the LDC and continue to present Pelican Bay as a neighborhood comparison. This, despite repeated requests to focus on the Vanderbilt Beach neighborhood. Any development of this site must be aligned with the LDC in a manner consistent with the character of the Vanderbilt Beach neighborhood. Stock’s website claims One Naples “will feel like it’s always been a part of the neighborhood.” Again, they sent a proposal which does NOT meet the LDC or neighborhood fit, due to: • Excessive density • Lack of adequate setbacks • Building height • Lack of open space • Hotel use not approved in existing C-3 zoning I respectfully request your vote to deny Stock approval to move forward with One Naples until they adequately address the above violations - without requesting code changes. In spite of Stock’s claims of total transparency, Stock has again neglected to provide the public with accurate, scaled plans that reasonably depict all aspects of the development. Based on what they have belatedly provided, this continues to be the wrong development for the Vanderbilt Beach neighborhood. After attending workshops, a NIM at which I was a speaker against the specifications of the development, and meetings with our Regatta condominium members, Stock continues to repeat the same messaging about transparency, yet remains tone-deaf with regard to real neighborhood look and feel issues. Despite concessions, the density STILL remains twice the current code. Setbacks are significantly inadequate, creating a cavernous, closed parcel similar to a New York City or Miami behemoth. One Naples claims that it “does not reinvent a neighborhood but “complements” its legacy.” In reality, Stock is doing the opposite. It is asking for changes in the LDC which will leave a cringe-worthy legacy for Vanderbilt Beach. The current proposal will not enhance Stock’s reputation. Thank you for considering my request. Please vote to deny Stock approval to move forward with One Naples until they adequately address the LDC violations above without requesting code changes.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: I respectfully request you consider the views I express below when voting on the Stock Development proposal. I recently sent the letter which follows to the Naples Dailly News. Thanks for listening, Toby Zettler 377 Vanderbilt Beach Rd., Unit 201 Naples FL 34108 "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? Commissioners should declare eminent domain to buy the property back and enhance it for Collier County residents and visitors. The county taxpayers have paid much larger amounts for land adjacent to the Everglades to protect it from development. Let’s turn these 5 acres into a public park with greenery, walk paths with benches, a playground, bandstand, waterfront appropriate retail, etc. Stock 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. Alternatively, let Stock carry out their “threat” of a commercial development. 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 boardwalk be open to the public, just as the beach is. It is time for all Collier County citizens to finally take a stand against overdevelopment. Convince the Commissioners to do the right thing. The greater good for the greater number is the correct political call here. Are they going to serve tens of thousands of residents and visitors? Or a single developer who obviously cares nothing about the neighborhood nor the environment?"

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Vanderbilt Beach Road / One Naples Dear Commisioners, I write this letter to express my concern about traffic nightmare that exists along Vanderbilt Beach Road west from 41 and the ill-conceived development called One Naples that will make the problem even worse. We have been residents of Pelican Bay for over 15 years and have seen Vanderbillt Beach road evolve from a busy road to a gridlocked one. We now do our best to avoid it in season. When completed, the Naples One proposal will make the traffic problems much worse and during the 5 to 10 years of construction make Vanderbilt Beach a nightmare. In addition to the traffic disaster it will cause, Naples One is totally inappropriate for the area as indicated by the major zoning changes that it requires. That our Commissioners have even condoned the submission of the proposal which so violates the existing zoning limitations suggests that the Commisioners have lost sight of what is best for the people of Collier County. A week ago, I attended a presentation by Stock both to learn how they could possibly address the onerous traffic problems and to learn about the residences. As a result of the presentation, I am so concerned that I am writing this letter. Below are my notes from the meeting discussing the presentation and my concerns. I beg you not to let an influential developer’s ambitions ruin our neighborhood and make an impossible traffic situation worse. Thousands more people will be flocking west along Vanderbilt Beach Road in search of the Gulf waters thanks to last week’s approval of Rivergrass Village. Please don’t add to the frustrated hoards. Rather, direct the County resources to solving the existing problem. Thank you. D Brown NOTES FROM 2.21.20 ONE NAPLES PRESENTATION Conclusions. Traffic problems alone should have resulted in immediate rejection of proposal. It adds hundreds, if not thousands, of cars to the area and removes hundreds of available parking spots in an already gridlocked area. Even under the best of circumstances, years of traffic disruption can be expected from the construction. The proposal constitutes an incomplete agglomeration of parcels and tries to shoehorn inappropriate structures. The proposal creates a private fortress inaccessible to the public and closes public roads that provide the only possible relief to the gridlock regularly experienced in the area. The proposal is ill-conceived and could risk failure, particularly with a developer with no high rise tower experience. An ill-timed downturn could delay construction to a decade or longer and even risk partially completed buildings looming over Vanderbilt Beach for years. The property is currently zoned for commercial development, presumably to provided services to the neighboring community. The community relied on the commercial designation and Stock should use its talents to fulfill those intentions, possibly adding needed parking as part of a commercial project. Commisioners should immediately dismiss the proposal so that County personnel can address existing problems faced by the County, rather than working on creating new problems. General comments. Proposal seems like a terribly ill-conceived Rube Goldberg. The development consists of several disjointed parcels. Some seem jointly owned with others? Parts of the project are separated by public streets, by a low rise apartment building and by the DaRuMa restaurant. Southbay Drive will continue to be a public road and will separate the low rise buildings on the harbor from the towers. Center street will continue up past DaRuMa and then dead-end. Is it only a matter of time before the apartment building and DaRuMa are acquired and more high rises built? To be feasible, the Development requires the transfer of two streets, exacerbating the already serious traffic congestion in the area. Stock personnel seemed to hint that Southbay Drive would also become a private part of the development. Why Collier County would be willing to give up streets that provide some modicum of relief to the extreme traffic problems of the area is puzzling Because the streets are fundamental to the development, Stock should be required to pay millions based on land prices in Naples. There was no mention of compensation to County for the roads? Hundreds of parking spaces will be lost from the land on which the high rises are to be built and the proposed elimination of parking along Vanderbilt adjacent to the development. The convenience/food stores will be elimated at the corner, thereby eliminating the only support facilities for one of Collier County’s only beaches The Beach Box eatery will be forced to close A shop for coffee is “promised”. The existing real estate office will return, however. This is Stock’s first Tower development. The area will be brightly lit except along Gulfshore where sea turtle restrictions require lower lighting. The environmental and aesthetic effect of the light pollution is yet another concern raised by the project. Condos expected to be in 2,000 to 4,000 sq foot range priced in the $1 to $10 million range. Two towers and 3 lower multistory buildings with approximately 250 units. No beach or harbor access for owners. Unlike many landlocked developments, there is no plan to acquire a nearby parcel to provide beach access for condo owners. Instead, there will be “15” minute (?) ferry transportation to Delnore Wiggins State Park Only condo owners who purchase slips will have access to the harbor. No public access to condos or slips. The development will be gated. While it was stated that Southbay Drive will remain public, it seems that the desire to make the development private will inevitably lead to attempts to close Southbay Drive off. There seemed to be some allusion to that possibility by Stock personnel at the meeting. Zoning Currently commercial - 51’ above flood level of 21.5’ or total height of 71.5’? Required for proposed Development: 205’ “zoned height” , 235’ actual height. Even higher with equipment on roof? Stock acquired “the property “ in 2017. However, they seem to be continually acquiring bits and pieces, some as recently as last Fall. Some parcels seem to be co-owned. Interestingly, a sign on the parcel where 200 -300 hundred cars are regularly parked briefly listed the parcel for sale for a few million dollars sometime around 2008- 2010. Too bad Collier County did not acquire it for another parking garage. Construction will occur in stages and is dependent on sales results so it could go on for years. Stock’s attempts to address various traffic issues Traffic backing up on Vanderbilt Beach Road at Hammock Oak Dr going West from 41 or going east from the beach. Stock personnel refused to discuss or acknowledge the issue despite repeated requests and descriptions of backups lasting several lights. They tried to assert that the only traffic issues were by the beach and parking garage. Traffic backing up near Vanderbilt Beach. Stock’s analysis/solutions were superficial or mere hyperbole. They blamed inefficiencies with the management of the garage. Stock proposed that parking kiosks be installed like the ones used at Clam Pass Park and by the City of Naples. This would eliminate the backlog caused by the parking lot attendant. They also blamed the current policy of keeping the garage closed for at least 20 minutes and until at least several spaces opened up. They proposed that an app be used and signs installed to alert users that the garage is full. Basically, they want to tell people to “go away”. When asked where beach goers are suppose to go, they said Delnore Wiggins State Park and “other” county beaches. Delnore Wiggins already suffers serious backup and capacity issues as does Clam Pass park three miles south off Seagate and Barefoot Beach, a half hour to the north off the severely congested Bonita Beach Road. They also asserted that pedestrians were a major cause of congestion and that better signage and street markings would help solve the traffic problem.......really? They also stated that under the the County’s method of measuring traffic there is no traffic problem resulting from the project. Inexplicable. The proposals to alleviate inept parking procedures and pedestrian interference ignore the basic problem which is too much traffic and too few parking spots. The project will remove 20 onstreet parking spots and hundreds of parking spaces currently available on the fields proposed to be developed. Using a bathtub as an analogy....the bathtub is full. Their proposals merely fill it faster or organizes the rubber ducks in the tub, but once it is full, it will overflow and make a mess. Also the project actually results in a smaller bath tub! “Could be Worse” argument . An aspect of the presentation which seemed confused was the claim that the current commercial zoning would permit much worse traffic because of the additional hypothetical traffic from a make believe mall. The Mercato was held out as a possibility which seemed silly. A strip mall is the likely type of commercial development for such a modest sized odd- shaped parcel. There is no actual mall because developers have concluded for whatever reason that it is not commercially feasible. Residents in the area would no doubt embrace access to more commercial services so they didn’t have to battle the traffic to the shopping centers on 41 and beyond. In fact, they probably relied on the commercial designation with the expectation that additional services would some day be available. If anything, a small local mall could help alleviate the traffic problems by reducing trips up to 41 and beyond. The assertion that a gas station could be built was immediately retracted. In any event, one would hope that environmental regulations would prohibit such a facility. Sent from my iPhone. Pls forgive typos.

I listened to the developer presentation about a month ago and found it technically good, but ultimately unreasonable. They threatened commercial development under current zoning, among other things. Building under the current zoning would cause less disruption to the neighborhood than their proposal. The Stock proposal for rezoning lacks merit and should be denied. The proposed height does not "fit" the rest of the area, the increase in traffic would choke the roads, and the setbacks would adversely affect neighboring properties.

I was encouraged by the action of the Planning Commission and their inability to recommend approval not only of the current Stock plan, but of a watered-down version that reduced the outrageous tower heights by almost 25%, and extremely diminished setbacks. They did their job, protecting the community. Now it’s your turn. Planning Commissioner Frye said it best when he asked the other Commissioners how they could ignore the outpouring of sentiment from the community. These are your constituents, your voters. Isn’t it your responsibility to listen to those who will live with this atrocity for decades to come and to vehemently deny the developer the right to build it? If hundreds of emails exhorting you to deny the project are not enough, if more than eighty people who signed up to speak against the project at the Planning Commission are not enough, if the 1,100 members of Save Vanderbilt Beach, forty percent of whom have contributed more than $100,000 to engage experts and fight the development are not enough, what exactly will be enough to persuade you to do the right thing? Please, when it comes before you, vote to deny the project as it is currently proposed. If you do approve something for the site, and remember we are not opposed to reasonable development, please approve the project with the conditions that your own Planning Staff proposed. They are reasonable and result in a project that is compatible with and complementary to the neighborhood. In hopes of a more reasonable project, I am respectfully, Nancee Martin __________________________ -------------------------- From:ELizabeth (Betty) Pircio To:TaylorPenny Subject:Vanderbilt neighborhood and One Naples Date:Tuesday, August 11, 2020 5:10:41 PM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source. Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: We hope that you will take the lead in demanding that the Stock company bring this overreaching plan for One Naples more into compatibility with the neighborhood. Look, we know that the Commissioners have a long history of voting with Stock and other developers, but this time must be different. We know that the corner of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulfshore Drive is currently an eyesore, and we know that it needs to be redeveloped. Stock is a good choice as the developer. Can we count on you to vote down his current design? Ask him to start again, acting more in line with the public interest. It’s your sworn duty to do so. You need not wait until the formal meeting. A call from you today indicating that you can’t vote for today’s design, but that you would fully support a project more sensitive to neighborhood wishes and compatibility would go a long way to bringing Stock back to the table. We and our more-than-one-thousand fellow registrants of Save Vanderbilt Beach stand ready to talk. It’s not too late. Stock will tell you that there have been literally dozens of meetings with the community and that is true, but the changes he has made to date have simply not been adequate, nor is it appropriate that there are quid pro quos with new paint jobs, access control systems, pool covers, power washes, and discounted pricing on needed sea wall repairs being exchanged for support. A 700-foot long 35-foot high wall 15-feet off his property line and a mere 35-feet from edge of the pavement along the length of Gulfshore and VBR, no matter what the planting in front of it, is not in the public interest. It will be a monstrosity for decades to come. And the towers, two 208-foot high structures as close as 25 feet to the property line will dominate the landscape, dwarfing the surrounding buildings. Stock is asking the county to donate nearly .6 acres to him in the form of the vacation of various roadways that run throughout his property. What is he giving in return? A project not in the public interest, adding too much density, traffic, safety concerns, and additional beach usage to an area already overburdened. Please, Commissioner Taylor, help us protect the public interest Thank you. We have appreciated your stance with the Covid situation and are hoping that you will continue to protect the residents of Collier County.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: I am writing today in my continued opposition to the One Naples project as out is proposed. I understand that, because the Corona Virus has made in-person hearings difficult in the County’s hearing room, that consideration is being given to holding the One Naples discussions in an outdoor venue. I fully support that concept as it would allow many more members of the public to safely express their feelings about the project, both for and against it. Thanks for your positive consideration of this idea. As we all know only too well, Please consider hearing this important matter at the second of your January meetings, on the 19th. Like many others, we are still wrapped up in the holidays the first week in January and we won’t be able to give this matter our full attention as it deserves.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: I am a member of the County Planning Commission and I sat through the many hours of testimony at our CCPC meetings regarding the ONE Naples request. I am relatively new to the Planning Commission. Prior to being appointed I was part of our majority population that believed the County always approves developer requests to change the Growth Management . This is one of the reasons, I accepted the position. That reputation has to change. We represent the residents not the developers. My mindset is you establish a plan that the residents can rely on and only make changes that benefit the residents of Collier County. I also, go to Vanderbilt beach regularly. To me this is a no brainer to not approve this application. There is no good reason or any resident support to change our current GMP and certainly no benefit other than to the developer. If you support this request to change, you will be continuing to prove to the residents of Collier County that you do not represent the residents but rather the developers which would be a very sad message to send the public. And quite frankly it would make me reconsider if it is worth my time to be a Planning Commission. Please do the right thing and vote against the ONE Naples request. __________________________ -------------------------- From:Pamela Massimi To:TaylorPenny Subject:Vanderbilt neighborhood Stock Project Date:Friday, February 26, 2021 12:54:42 PM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source. Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: My husband and I moved 11 years ago into the Vanderbilt Beach area. We chose this area over areas like Park Shore due to its low key, more quaint neighborhood feel. We both love the beach very much and have seen a dramatic change to the beach with it becoming more crowded due to the increase in population in Naples. Vanderbilt is a very narrow Beach and cannot support the amount of people that it has now ….. We can’t imagine a residential project of this size and the impact that it will have on the beach and traffic areas. On March 1 you and your fellow Commissioners will be hearing Stock Development’s application for One Naples. I am writing you today to express my strong opposition to the development as Stock has proposed it. I assure you that we do understand the ramifications of asking that Stock respect the existing C-3 zoning, and I am asking you to vote to deny his proposed amendment to the Growth Management Plan. We will be there on March 1st and i’m hoping that you will please vote against this project.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: On March 1 you and your fellow Commissioners will be hearing Stock Development’s application for One Naples. I am writing you today to express my strong opposition to the development as Stock has proposed it. I know full well that this development is not in our District, and that Commissioners generally tend to vote with the Commissioner in whose District the project lies. But, in this case I ask you to act independently. Residents of Commissioner Solis’ District have overwhelmingly shown their opposition. I know that you are aware of that as I know that you have received hundreds of emails telling you so. I believe that Commissioner Solis intends to vote in support of the Stock amendment to the Growth Management Plan. His reason for doing so is flawed. He feels that the neighborhood is not capable of understanding the nuances of the matter before you, and that he, alone, knows what is good for his District. When he tells people, “Be careful what you wish for.” he is saying that the residents of the affected neighborhood don’t know what they are asking. assure you that they do understand the ramifications of asking that Stock respect the existing C-3 zoning. One Naples is not simply a District 2 issue. Its approval would send a message that it’s “business as usual,” and that the “Miamification” of Collier County will continue. That must stop!

This neighborhood is really a community and you only need to drive or walk through on any given day to see people out walking their dogs, biking, strolling the beach, and generally enjoying the ambiance of a smaller community within Naples. During the high season, the numbers swell with most residents and their guests enjoying the area, however you only need to drive down Vanderbilt Beach road on a weekend or during the busy season to see how overloaded the area becomes. Too many cars crowding the roads that are lined with residents walking and biking make it particularly dangerous and the beach becomes way overcrowded. The cars line up down the road, the garage closes, and the stress on the area is quite apparent. Last year-in an unusual situation, during the Co-vid shutdown of the beach, there were many residents already here, and then came an onslaught of people from other areas in the state when we opened and they were still closed. And though it was awful it served to warn the residents of how it could be all the time if this plan is allowed to go forward!! Obviously you know that as our beaches were briefly opened and then promptly closed again. The crowds became too large and unruly, leaving the area overcrowded, with the crowds leaving much trash all along the beach and private property when they left. On the beach side of our building, we had numerous incidences of people entering private property to relieve themselves and disrobing to change into street clothes because they didn't want to walk to the public restrooms or didn't want to wait in line to use them. We hauled in and threw away clothing, trash, bottles, cans, coolers, tents, etc that beachgoers left after a day of overcrowding on the beach. The trash cans at the public access areas were also overloaded and insufficient. I believe that the facilities that are available to the public in the Vanderbilt Beach area were designed and built to manage the crowds that come for the MUCH of the time based on the amount of land and space that are available. BUT, they are STRESSED at ANY PEAK period of use. That does not include just the highest weeks of "spring break" but also most weekends and holidays. Putting this large of a residential project in that place is absolutely wrong for the area. I do not object to a smaller project that could enhance the area. I walk to all of the local restaurants and amenities in the area and love that it is so pedestrian friendly. That is why we invested money into buying a property there. Putting these tall buildings in this area and also adding so significantly to the traffic , overcrowding on land and also the increase in the number of commercial docks will absolutely overload this neighborhood and the quiet lagoon and endanger the peace and tranquility of the bay as well as put the local residents and wildlife in danger. THIS PROJECT IS WRONG FOR THIS COMMUNITY ON SO MANY LEVELS! The zoning was put in place for a reason and there is no reason to change that now just because a developer has made a bad investment decision. I believe that Commissioner Solis intends to vote in support of the Stock amendment to the Growth Management Plan. His reason for doing so is flawed. He feels that the neighborhood is not capable of understanding the nuances of the matter before you, and that he, alone, know what is good for his District. When he tells people, “Be careful what you wish for.” he is saying that the residents of the affected neighborhood don’t know for what they are asking. I assure you that they do understand the ramifications of asking that Stock respect the existing C-3 zoning. One Naples is not simply a District 2 issue. Its approval would send a message that for the Commissioners it is “business as usual,” and the they have little concern for the “Miamification” of Collier County. It would represent the long-held pattern of the Board of County Commissioners supporting developers over neighborhoods. That must stop! I am asking you to vote to deny Stock’s proposed amendment to the Growth Management Plan. I cannot be more direct. You have for too long and for too often voted to allow developers to run slipshod over the wishes of your taxpaying constituents. Frankly, knowing how much opposition there is to the project’s design, I am amazed that this is a hard decision for anyone of the commissioners whose job it is to protect their constituent's interests. I assure you that we do understand the ramifications of asking that Stock respect the existing C-3 zoning, and I am asking you to vote to deny his proposed amendment to the Growth Management Plan. I cannot be more direct. You have for too long and for too often voted to allow developers to run slipshod over the wishes of your taxpaying constituents. It must stop! I will be there on March 1st to hold your feet to the fire.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: On March 1 you and your fellow Commissioners will be hearing Stock Development’s application for One Naples. I am writing you today to express my strong opposition to the development as Stock has proposed it. PLEASE VOTE AGAINST THIS APPLICATION. THIS IS NOT the way to move forward. We are already a traffic disaster. Without controlled and responsible growth, which protects our resources, Naples will be just another Miami. I know full well that this development is not in our District, and that Commissioners generally tend to vote with the Commissioner in whose District the project lies. But, in this case I ask you to act independently. Residents of Commissioner Solis’ District have overwhelmingly shown their opposition. I know that you are aware of that as I know that you have received hundreds of emails telling you so. I believe that Commissioner Solis intends to vote in support of the Stock amendment to the Growth Management Plan. His reason for doing so is flawed. He feels that the neighborhood is not capable of understanding the nuances of the matter before you, and that he, alone, knows what is good for his District.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: Project One is a terrible plan for the Vanderbilt Beach area. The last thing we need is another tall building obliterating the views of the sky and the water, and cutting into one of the few places that remain untouched by commercial housing. Every day we see people happily walking down Vanderbilt Beach Road to meet their friends and watch the sunset. Even now there are more cars than the parking can accommodate. It is inconceivable to me why the Commissioners would accept such a project–especially when the developers plan to request changes in the zoning restrictions, inhibiting even more the space for existing residents. Upgrading would be a welcome change, if it consisted of small shops, maybe a deli, a bar, some park benches with greenery. But another high-rise which walls preventing any sort of view. Who benefits from this project besides the developers themselves? They can't pretend that it benefits the current residents of Collier County. You, as a Commissioner, must be aware that we do not need or want another one of these buildings, more traffic, a more crowded beach, not to mention the boat docks . Please, please, do not vote for One Naples! Thank you, Eve Wiese __________________________ -------------------------- From:Deb Murray To:TaylorPenny Subject:Vanderbilt neighborhood Date:Tuesday, February 23, 2021 11:36:06 AM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: On March 1 you and your fellow Commissioners will be hearing Stock Development’s application for One Naples. I am writing you today to express my strong opposition to the development as Stock has proposed it. I know full well that this development is not in our District, and that Commissioners generally tend to vote with the Commissioner in whose District the project lies. But, in this case I ask you to act independently. Residents of Commissioner Solis’ District have overwhelmingly shown their opposition. I know that you are aware of that as I know that you have received hundreds of emails telling you so. I believe that Commissioner Solis intends to vote in support of the Stock amendment to the Growth Management Plan. His reason for doing so is flawed. He feels that the neighborhood is not capable of understanding the nuances of the matter before you, and that he, alone, knows what is good for his District. When he tells people, “Be careful what you wish for.” he is saying that the residents of the affected neighborhood don’t know what they are asking. assure you that they do understand the ramifications of asking that Stock respect the existing C-3 zoning.

I am writing you today to express my strong opposition to the development as Stock has proposed it. It would add significantly to what is already a lot of traffic on Vanderbilt Beach Road west of Tamiami Trail. It would put a strain on Beach access and cause overcrowding at the beach itself making it unpleasant for everyone! In addition, it would completely change the tenor of our relaxed beach community. It would be an overbearing presence in our community. You were a significant force when the mask mandate was passed in Collier County. I am asking you to stand up against this massive project. Frankly, knowing how much opposition there is to the project’s design and how you care for our Collier County, I am amazed that this is a hard decision for you. We understand the ramifications of asking that Stock respect the existing C-3 zoning, and I am asking you to vote to deny his proposed amendment to the Growth Plan. One Naples is not simply a District 2 issue. Its approval would send a message that it’s “business as usual,” and that the “Miamification” of Collier County will continue. That must stop! I am asking you to vote to deny Stock’s proposed amendment to the Growth Management Plan We will be there on March 1st, virtually.

I live in Bay Colony and walk and bike up and down Vanderbilt Beach road. There is already tons of traffic and this will add more and I worry about the safety of myself and others. That development would be lovely in another area that is not already so dense. Please oppose it. Thank you for your consideration.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: I am writing you today to express my opposition to the Stock Development One Naples as it is currently proposed. I was encouraged by the action of the Planning Commission and their inability to recommend approval not only of the current Stock plan, but of a watered-down version that reduced the outrageous tower heights by almost 25%, and extremely diminished setbacks. They did their job, protecting the community. Now it’s your turn. Planning Commissioner Frye said it best when he asked the other Commissioners how they could ignore the outpouring of sentiment from the community. These are your constituents, your voters. Isn’t it your responsibility to listen to those who will live with this atrocity for decades to come and to vehemently deny the developer the right to build it? If hundreds of emails exhorting you to deny the project are not enough, if more than eighty people who signed up to speak against the project at the Planning Commission are not enough, if the 1,100 members of Save Vanderbilt Beach, forty percent of whom have contributed more than $100,000 to engage experts and fight the development are not enough, what exactly will be enough to persuade you to do the right thing? Please, when it comes before you, vote to deny the project as it is currently proposed. If you do approve something for the site, and remember we are not opposed to reasonable development, please approve the project with the conditions that your own Planning Staff proposed. They are reasonable and result in a project that is compatible with and complementary to the neighborhood.

Dear Commissioner Taylor: On March 1 you and your fellow Commissioners will be hearing Stock Development’s application for One Naples. I am writing you today to express my strong opposition to the development as Stock has proposed it. I know full well that this development is not in our District, and that Commissioners generally tend to vote with the Commissioner in whose District the project lies. But, in this case I ask you to act independently. Residents of Commissioner Solis’ District have overwhelmingly shown their opposition. I know that you are aware of that as I know that you have received hundreds of emails telling you so. I believe that Commissioner Solis intends to vote in support of the Stock amendment to the Growth Management Plan. His reason for doing so is flawed. He feels that the neighborhood is not capable of understanding the nuances of the matter before you, and that he, alone, knows what is good for his District. When he tells people, “Be careful what you wish for.” he is saying that the residents of the affected neighborhood don’t know what they are asking. assure you that they do understand the ramifications of asking that Stock respect the existing C-3 zoning. One Naples is not simply a District 2 issue. Its approval would send a message that it’s “business as usual,” and that the “Miamification” of Collier County will continue. That must stop! I am asking you to vote to deny Stock’s proposed amendment to the Growth Management Plan I along with hundreds of others will be there on March 1st to support you in making the right decision. __________________________ -------------------------- From:inge hissa To:TaylorPenny Subject:Vanderbilt neighborhood/Chateau Vanderbilt Condominium Date:Monday, November 30, 2020 8:14:19 AM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source. Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: I am the President of Chateau Vanderbilt Condominium Association and writing you today to express my opposition to the Stock Development One Naples as it is currently proposed. I represent the Board and Owners of Chateau Vanderbilt and we are very concerned about the impact Naples One will have on our neighborhood, traffic, skyline, view and more. We have worked hard over the last few years to improve on our property and surroundings based on our owners desires to live in a smaller based community with high values and standards. I was encouraged by the action of the Planning Commission and their inability to recommend approval not only of the current Stock plan, but of a watered-down version that reduced the outrageous tower heights by almost 25%, and extremely diminished setbacks. They did their job, protecting the community. Now it’s your turn. Planning Commissioner Frye said it best when he asked the other Commissioners how they could ignore the outpouring of sentiment from the community. These are your constituents, your voters. Isn’t it your responsibility to listen to those who will live with this atrocity for decades to come and to vehemently deny the developer the right to build it? If hundreds of emails exhorting you to deny the project are not enough, if more than eighty people who signed up to speak against the project at the Planning Commission are not enough, if the 1,100 members of Save Vanderbilt Beach, forty percent of whom have contributed more than $100,000 to engage experts and fight the development are not enough, what exactly will be enough to persuade you to do the right thing? Please, when it comes before you, vote to deny the project as it is currently proposed. If you do approve something for the site, and remember we are not opposed to reasonable development, please approve the project with the conditions that your own Planning Staff proposed. They are reasonable and result in a project that is compatible with and complementary to the neighborhood. In hopes of a more reasonable project, I am respectfully, Inge Hissa President, Chateau Vanderbilt 410-215-1767 __________________________ -------------------------- From:carolyn jasiul ferrari To:TaylorPenny Subject:Vanderbilt neighborhoodnaples one Date:Wednesday, August 12, 2020 11:57:08 AM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source. Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor: We hope that you will take the lead in demanding that the Stock company bring this overreaching plan for One Naples more into compatibility with the neighborhood. Look, we know that the Commissioners have a long history of voting with Stock and other developers, but this time must be different. We know that the corner of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulfshore Drive is currently an eyesore, and we know that it needs to be redeveloped. Stock is a good choice as the developer. Can we count on you to vote down his current design? Ask him to start again, acting more in line with the public interest. It’s your sworn duty to do so. You need not wait until the formal meeting. A call from you today indicating that you can’t vote for today’s design, but that you would fully support a project more sensitive to neighborhood wishes and compatibility would go a long way to bringing Stock back to the table. We and our more-than-one-thousand fellow registrants of Save Vanderbilt Beach stand ready to talk. It’s not too late. Stock will tell you that there have been literally dozens of meetings with the community and that is true, but the changes he has made to date have simply not been adequate, nor is it appropriate that there are quid pro quos with new paint jobs, access control systems, pool covers, power washes, and discounted pricing on needed sea wall repairs being exchanged for support. A 700-foot long 35-foot high wall 15-feet off his property line and a mere 35-feet from edge of the pavement along the length of Gulfshore and VBR, no matter what the planting in front of it, is not in the public interest. It will be a monstrosity for decades to come. And the towers, two 208-foot high structures as close as 25 feet to the property line will dominate the landscape, dwarfing the surrounding buildings. Stock is asking the county to donate nearly .6 acres to him in the form of the vacation of various roadways that run throughout his property. What is he giving in return? A project not in the public interest, adding too much density, traffic, safety concerns, and additional beach usage to an area already overburdened. Please, Commissioner Taylor, help us protect the public interest Thank you.

Dear Commissioners, As a Collier County Resident, I am urging you vote NO to Stock Development's proposed One Naples. Even with the addition of the Daruma parcel! This project far exceeds any intelligent person's vision for the future of Vanderbilt Beach and the county coastline. We have a county Growth Management Plan in place for a reason... to protect our natural resources and the safety and quality of life in Collier County, especially in already congested areas!!

I am a longtime Florida resident of the Beachwalk community (since January 2005) located along Vanderbilt Beach Road. We are just west of the Pavilion shopping plaza and across VB Rd from the north end of Pelican Bay. I am 'okay' with residential development in the area that Stock is talking about....BUT LET US BE REASONABLE...the density and height must fit the area. Stock's examples of "comparable" high rises is a crock of shit; Stock references the Ritz Carlton and Trieste. Do you see the setbacks and surrounding green space around those two high rises? There is lots of it...there is NONE of that with Stock's plan. Stock should maybe get approval for a townhouse setting type development, 3 to 5 stories tall...AND NOT ON TOP OF 2 STORIES OF PARKING. I'm talking a total height of 5 stories. If they can't make that work, then forget granting them any variances. The area is zoned commercial; residents of the area would be good with a few more restaurants and services. Stock threatens that commercial development is going to generate more auto traffic...BALONEY. Those new commercial establishments will be supported by the existing beach visitors and the residents of the area; most of whom will walk or bike to the restaurant. PLEASE do not approve this One Naples proposal as it exists today. If Stock can't make either of the two suggestions above work, then so be it. Let them move on. thank you, willie Willie Schult 790 Reef Point Circle Naples, FL 34108 e-mail: schultw@aol.com cell ph: 239-438-2801 From:peter heath To:SolisAndy; TaylorPenny; LoCastroRick; McDanielBill; SaundersBurt Subject:Vote NO for One Naples Date:Wednesday, February 24, 2021 1:36:39 PM EXTERNAL EMAIL: This email is from an external source. Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Collier County Commissioners: As you consider Mr. Stock's proposal, please be guided by your obligation to the residents of all of Collier County. A tasteful, modest development, of appropriate scale, consistent and compatible with the current neighborhood and its zoning requirements, can be a responsible enhancement to the area. But, as proposed, the Stock development is not responsible. It is too expansive, too tall, forces upon us too big of a marina, and mocks appropriate established setbacks and green space requirements. Most importantly, please bear in mind before you vote, that it is against current zoning regulations, and flouts the Collier County Land Development Code, which was established to protect our county from exactly this type of overdevelopment! Vanderbilt Beach is a popular county beach and should remain accessible to all county residents. Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Boulevard are single lanes, and are already heavily congested with cars, bicycles, and pedestrians. The additional burden this proposal imposes will overwhelm the current infrastructure. To Mr. Stock, this is only a money making scheme that he is vigorously trying to foist upon your constituents. As county commissioners, please consider all of your county residents. That is your charge. This includes not only the neighbors to One Naples, but all residents of the entire county. This vote will set a precedent for how all of Collier County will be allowed to grow in the future. Will Collier County grow according to the established Land Development Code, or will Mr. Stock, and other developers who will then follow his lead, be allowed to look upon the code with derision, and then talk the board into changing it to fit their personal wants? If so, why was a Land Development Code ever established? It will have totally lost its intended purpose. Please stand for the voices of all the people. Vote NO to this condescending proposal. This is our county, this is our beach access. Please represent all of us. Thank you.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. I am a Regatta owner, and I am very concerned about the size and scope of Mr. Stock’s development at Vanderbilt Beach Road. I have been to several meetings and listened to his plans. This Project is entirely too tall and too close to the road. It is overwhelming considering the size and scope of the rest of the neighboring community. Vanderbilt Beach is a separate community from Pelican Bay so any comparisons to Pelican Bay are inappropriate. The Vanderbilt Beach area and condo buildings are quiet, low key and blend in with each other. Mr. Stock’s plan has a Park Shore high-rise feel which is not our community. What is the point of having rules and zoning requirements and limitations if developers are not going to adhere to them. They have been put in place to protect our community both for the environmental impact as well as visual. We do need that 6 acre property to be developed to add to our Community and property values, but it needs to be in keeping with the surrounding area in order to have the best impact visually and environmentally for our area. I realize this would be a major statement and show piece for Mr. Stock’s portfolio but it is not in the best interest of our community. I understand that the powers at be in Naples would like the income that a project like Mr. Stock’s would generate, but a great deal of the appeal of Naples and particularly our Vanderbilt community is based on a more low-key, quiet and unobtrusive merging with nature. That is what draws our tourists and businesses. We like our coastal area for these reasons and do not want to see oversized projects built close to the road with an East Coast feel. Upon completion of his project Mr. Stock will move on and begin another project elsewhere, and we will be left to deal with the fallout of an overdeveloped property forever. This should not be a discussion about the project’s economic and financial generation for Naples or our community but should be more about blending into the surrounding community in a positive way for our future. I’m not sure why he wants to push through a project of this size and scope that the community clearly does not want. Adhere to the height requirement and setback requirement and the community will be much happier!! Thank you for your consideration!

Commissioner Taylor, As a resident of The Beachmoor Condominium and as your constituent I am writing to you to express my opposition to the One Naples project as proposed. The facts as we see them are as follows: 1) Vanderbilt Beach is presently the most popular / over crowded beach in Collier County. 2) The traffic situation at present is extremely difficult and unsafe for vehicular traffic and pedestrians alike. 3) The 'canyon' effect created by these building will be profound; physically and aesthetically. We are not opposed to the development of the property. However, the magnitude of the project as proposed is completely unacceptable. As propose, the increase of numbers, people, cars etc, will negatively affect police, EMS, and fire response times. In addition, the size of the proposed marina will have a negative effect to the quality of the water in Connors Bay as well as marine life. We ask you to vote with the residents of your district and reject the project as proposed. A much more modest project for this area would be acceptable.

Dear Commissioner Taylor, I am writing you today to express my opposition to the One Naples application as it is proposed. Before telling you my reasons, however, I do want to express my thanks to you for your willingness to thoroughly hear the comments of both sides of the debate. My hope is for your thoughtful consideration of all the concerned residents and beach goers that frequent Vanderbilt Beach. I am opposed because, as has been so well documented, the plan is neither complimentary to nor compatible with the neighborhood. These shortcomings center primarily on height, mass, setbacks, and open space. As designed, One Naples promotes a Miami-like, canyon-like feeling that is the total opposite of the neighborhoods’ desires. The developer’s belief that by providing rooftop amenities such as cabanas and swimming pool is satisfying open space requirements, is totally absurd. Open space is to be enjoyed by all the people, not just the select few who can afford such an expensive “first class” residence. I am equally put off by the developer’s endless threat of a commercial development replacing his outrageous towers. Frankly, a commercial development constricted by the C-3 zoning requirements offers all the neighborhood’s residents an acceptable walkable/bikeable amenity as opposed to a development that benefits only the developer and his 172 customers.

I am writting to you to express my opinion on the “One Naples” project under consideration for my neighborhood.

I also understand that it does not meet the growth management plan but they are asking for changes. Please vote NO on this development at this location. Susan P.

Commissioner Taylor: No one, I believe, is saying do not develop the property under consideration for One Naples at all, but what should be permitted? Not what has been proposed. Pelican Bay is required to subsidize Route 41. One Naples should do no less, (roads, sidewalks, bicycle lanes, upkeep of the roadway, not your residents if anything is permitted for safety reasons if nothing else. There are only two ways out of One Naples, Vanderbilt Beach Rd, and Vanderbilt Dr. Then there will be the cutting through Pelican Bay to avoid the lights if one is going into Naples. Have the police tell you about the speed of traffic on Pelican Bay Blvd with no real bicycle lane. Posted as 30 mph, and if one goes this speed you will likely be the only vehicle doing so. Most of these are even Pelican Bay residents. What traffic this will add to that route will be unbelievable and sheer frustration will make the likely speeds in excess of 40 mph which occurs often now. But Pelican Bay is only one issue and I know some County personnel still smart from its petition to annex. That is history. Let's look at all other residents in North Naples who go to Vanderbilt Beach. With One Naples, the traffic will become impossible. The two roads in and out are only two lanes for the most part. I cannot opine on the building heights, however, the photographs show what appear to be unreasonable heights. The photographs also show multiple buildings with minimal parking within One Naples. Where do all the people go? Why so many buildings for what is actually a rather small plot of land for the scope of this development. Thank you for your consideration.

Please consider the future of Collier County as well as the wishes of the majority of home owners. Also remember the traffic on Vanderbilt Drive. Bike riders, mostly tourists and visitors, use it, no bike lane, sidewalk only on west side. On 91st there is a small lane on the south side. Bikes, strollers, wagons, people pushing carriages. They use both sides of the street, in the road, with traffic. The corner of Vanderbilt and 91st is a fatal accident waiting to happen. Drivers speed onto 91st, others speed to the stop signs. Pet peeve. Sunset serenade each evening is the sound of sirens and horns rushing to the beach area or try skirting the traffic on V. Drive. It will only worsen, and that scares me.

Dear Commissioner Taylor The ONE NAPLES growth plan amendment and rezone will be coming up for your review and action within the next few weeks. We are respectfully asking that you ‘really’ listen to the expressed concerns of the citizens of North Naples, and Collier County in general, and understand the magnitude of why so many are strongly opposed to this project, as proposed. Please understand everyone is in agreement that something needs to be done with this assemblage of land, as it’s presently an eyesore to residents and visitors alike. With that being said, development is not the objection here, it’s the proposed project’s egregious intensity, its non-conforming height and density, its deviations in architecture, landscape buffers, parking, sidewalks, setbacks, right of ways … and the list goes on. As proposed, the scope and scale of One Naples certainly does not meet the intent of the current Land Development Code (LDC), nor is it in keeping with, or protective of the local environment and it poses great safety concerns for pedestrians, bicyclists, cars, and emergency vehicles alike. One Naples will negatively affect the heavily congested Vanderbilt Beach collector roadway, already having difficulty handling its existing peak hour traffic. The approval of this MPUD as proposed, steps from the public beach, will only serve to exasperate existing road-pedestrian safety issues with overpowering structures, short setbacks, vacation of right of ways, less parking and certainly less compatibility with the immediate surrounding public environment. Even with Stock's proposed traffic calming "gifts' and lush landscape, this project does not conform nor is it conducive to the local environment. Stock Development continues to advise the public they have had more than 50 meetings with the surrounding neighbors, to be a good neighbor, and understand the concerns. They have scaled down the project, reduced commercial space and are offering community improvements to offset stated objections. Despite those offerings, many local residents think Stock Development is failing to recognize that even its revised GMPA/ rezone petition with to 172 residences with 2 – 16 story towers is still incompatible with the local environment and many view it as invasive, unsightly ‘urban sprawl,’ given its location and limited space. As these petitions come before the BCC, Stock Development maintains their ‘reduced’ tower height of 208 ft is justified and in keeping with neighboring structures, even though the County staff comments do not agree. They also maintain that, while they overshadow their immediate neighbors, their towers will be shorter than the highly visible Ritz Carlton and Pelican Bay, Trieste. Again, many believe Stock fails to acknowledge that those properties being referred to are not encroaching on setbacks, sidewalks, right of ways, have different # of units per acre and/or were built under previous codes/guidelines… nor are any so close to the pavement or at the entrance to the public beach! We are at a crossroad with the future of Naples... We need you, as our elected Commissioners to be ‘for the people’ and part of the solution. When all is said and done, this will come down to a policy decision for the BCC. Every decision made has consequences and those consequences affect the future of Naples for decades to come. Granting such deviations to the current LDC will only allow future developers to come along and argue their project's consistency based on any deviations you allow today. Please, do the right thing here and deny One Naples, as proposed. VOTE NO. Do not allow this project to intensely, exceed the allowable density of the LDC in this (already) congested area with little, open green space and limited parking.

Confirm this is a trusted sender and use extreme caution when opening attachments or clicking links. Dear Commissioner Taylor, I am opposed to Stock Development’s One Naples high-rise project because it fundamentally disregards the Collier County Growth Management Plan (GMP) and Land Development Code which residents and neighborhoods rely on to protect our quality of life and home investment. For this reason, and for the reasons outlined below, I am asking you, as a County Commissioner, to DENY the proposed GMP amendment. As a member of the local community, I fully understand that in doing so, the property will retain its current C-3 zoning, which will provide much needed walkable and bikeable neighborhood services. Stock’s proposed amendment doubles density in the coastal high hazard zone and paves the way for the rezoning request that doubles allowable building height, reduces setbacks by 70%, and cuts in half required open space. The project is not compatible with, or complementary to, adjacent comparable neighborhoods. One Naples will introduce a Collins Ave., Miami Beach-like development into the Naples Park, Gulf Shore Drive and Vanderbilt Beach Road communities. To avoid this outcome, the Commissioners must deny the GMP amendment. Acknowledging this extreme and radical departure from the type of development allowed under the GMP, approval of this project would provide a rationale for future too tall, too dense, irresponsible projects to continue to alter for the worse existing neighborhood character throughout Collier County. Should you see fit to approve the amendment notwithstanding the outcry from thousands of community residents, Collier planning staff, in considering the rezoning request, has recommended approval of the project but conditioned to make the buildings better fit the neighborhood. Staff proposes limiting the height of all four building to seventy-six feet. With a redesign option of the towers, setting back higher stories in a “wedding cake” fashion, staff would allow a height of one hundred and twenty-five feet (60% of the 208-ft request). Staff also recommends a front setback of 25-feet for all four buildings, rather than the 10-ft to 15-ft setback that the Stock plan is based on. Additionally, it recommends allowing a front setback of 15-feet for the two towers based upon a site plan redesign that provides retail services along Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive. Although the Naples Park Area Association, the Pelican Bay Property Owners Association, the Vanderbilt Beach Residents Association, Save Vanderbilt Beach, and other communities can support staff design conditions, given the transformative nature of the project even at the reduced scale, the better approach is to deny the project outright. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Dear Commissioner, I am writing to you to express my opposition to the One Naples application as it is proposed. I want to express my thanks to you for your willingness to thoroughly hear the comments of both sides of the debate. My hope is for your thoughtful consideration of all the concerned residents and beach-goers that frequent Vanderbilt Beach. I am opposed because the plan is neither complimentary to nor compatible with the neighborhood. These shortcomings center primarily on height, mass, setbacks, and open space. In addition, the traffic on Vanderbilt Beach Road would be horrific. As designed, One Naples promotes a Miami-like, canyon-like feeling that is the total opposite of the neighborhoods’ desires. I am equally put off by the developer’s endless threat of a commercial development replacing his outrageous towers. Frankly, a commercial development constricted by the C-3 zoning requirements offers all the neighborhood’s residents an acceptable walkable/bikeable amenity as opposed to a development that benefits only the developer and his 172 customers. Thank you for your consideration.

December 10, 2020 Dear Commission Taylor, As new owners in the Beachwalk subdivision of North Naples, we are writing in opposition to the proposed development of ONE NAPLES, by Stock Development. While most would agree a change to that area would be welcome, the current proposal is NOT the answer. We purchased our home in North Naples because we like the relative quiet, the convenience of being close to the beach and amenities, like Mercato, Urgent Care, bike rental, and restaurants. We appreciate the consistency of architecture and the respect the city and developers have demonstrated thus far, in making this an convenient, friendly community. However, the currently proposed plan would negate many of the important reasons we bought our home where we did; Beautiful skyline - the proposed plan is too high and would block the sky from view. Magnificent sunsets from our lanai - these would be blocked by the tall buildings too. Safe pathways to the beach - the proposed set-backs are unsafe for pedestrians and bikes. There is nothing for the citizens of Collier County to gain from the proposed plan, and for us, only regret that we bought where we did. Please protect the future of Naples and the investments of its residents. When the vote on One Naples plan, as proposed, comes before you we respectfully request that you VOTE NO.

I hope that you will give the same consideration to the concerns of neighbors of the One Naples project. I was a County Commissioner in Greene County, Ohio. I understand the balancing of citizen concerns and economic development. However, in this case you should consider the effect of your decision on the impact of traffic, noise and congestion for future generations. If passed, it would severely change the personality of the area. Please vote no. The developer is sophisticated and will bring back for your consideration a more appropriate development. Please vote no. Your voice will influence the other commissioners. Please use it.

I do not know of anybody who wants it. I am having a hard time understanding how we can elect good people to represent us. Be very explicit about how we want them to represent us, and then they do the opposite. What happened here? How long have you spent on Gulfshore Drive on a sunny day during season? It is already a dangerous place to drive. I constantly watch for bicyclist, Motorcycles, walkers, runners, strollers, in addition to commercial trucks, landscaping trucks and cars. Then you add in the valet runners at LaPlaya and all the cars that come and go from there. How could you representatives ever consider adding to that dangerous condition? Even now I sit at the stop light at Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulfshore Drive and watch very carefully all the people, cars and motorcycles, beach carts, Half dressed teenagers, Slow moving elderly people, bicyclist and more. And you are thinking of putting huge buildings with hundreds of people coming out on that same stoplight. It scares me that our government has come toThe point of ignoring common sense. Please show integrity and represent what your constituents voted you for. Joyce Agnew, 10562 Gulf shore Drive.

I am sadden more each year seeing our society's focus on monetary values over the majority's wishes. Other then a NO vote on One Naples will warrant a NO vote from myself for your continued service.

Dear commissioner, It makes me sick when I think of the congestion One Naples will cause our community! I live in the Regatta and it is hard enough to pull out of our driveway, this project would make it impossible! The public beach is the most crowded of the three as it is, this would make it unbearable! As if Naples doesn’t have enough traffic as it is, this would make it intolerable! This development would ruin the area and community I live in and you must be able to see that! Please vote NO to reasoning for One Naples.....please!

I live at Beach Walk and some of the people there are supporting the opposing side to this project. I don't know why it seems that some people never want any change. I see it in my community all the time. It's very frustrating. I think Stock always does a great job in everything I've seen them develop. That area needs a definite upgrade and the noise that the opposition is making is using a lot of scare tactics. Please don't let the voice of these curmudgeons spoil something new and bright and beautiful.

Dear Commissioner Taylor, Words do not exist to thank you enough for trying to resolve this very difficult One Naples issue. You have set the standard for public service.

While I am sure you are still gathering the facts, and data to form your decision, I do have one question: Do you feel it is the Commissioners job to uphold the current zoning codes and have developers build to them?
