Agenda 07/13/2021 Item #16A15 (Agreement w/Olde Florida Golf Club)07/13/2021
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve an agreement between Collier County and Olde Florida Golf Club for
the installation and maintenance by the property owner of landscaping in the right -of-way along
the Vanderbilt Beach Road Extension Project and the acquisition of land (Parcel 172FEE) required
for construction of the Project. (Project No. 60168.)
OBJECTIVE: To enter into a Landscape Maintenance Agreement (LMA) with Olde Florida Golf Course
(OFGC) and to acquire land (Parcel 172FEE) needed for construction of the Project.
CONSIDERATIONS: OFGC has drawn staff’s attention to the fact that their property abounds with
wildlife, including deer and large alligators. They have expressed a concern for the safety of both wildlife
and motorists. Furthermore, errant golf balls could create a safety hazard for motorists, cyclists and
pedestrians using the roadway and adjacent pathway. During a meeting with OFGC and its attorney, staff
was informed that OFGC is willing to forego the construction of a separate turn lane and entrance into
their property as part of the Project improvements in return for the County using a portion of the cost
saving as a contribution towards the cost of OFGC installing enhanced landscaping in the right-of-way
adjacent to the property. The attached agreement is the result of negotiations between OFGC’s
representatives and staff and includes provisions relating to the conveyance of Parcel 172FEE to the
County. The agreement also provides for the installation of enhanced landscaping and irrigation facilities
along most of the frontage of the property and maintenance of this landscaping by the OFGC in perpetuity
in return for payment by the County of $143,400. Enhanced landscaping, along with a fence that will be
installed as part of the project, will provide a barrier against wildlife encroaching into the roadway and
added protection against errant golf balls for those using the roadway and the pathway.
In return for payment of $143,400, the County will additionally benefit as follows:
• OFGC will not require construction by the County of an entrance to their property, with the golf
course instead sharing an entrance with Golf Club of the Everglades. Their motivation is that
eliminating a separate entrance will further contribute to the safety of wildlife. This will result in
a saving to Collier County of approximately $192,500 in construction costs. Elimination of the
access driveway, median opening, and associated right and left turn lanes will also enhance safety
by removing conflict points created by the various turning movements.
• The County would have installed Bahia sod as part of the Project. The saving to County in not
having to install and mow grass in this location is $31,500 for the installation and $4,500 per year
at today’s rates to maintain it in perpetuity.
• The public will have the benefit of esthetically more pleasing landscaping in this area at no
additional cost to the County. It is estimated that installing and maintaining the landscaping and
irrigation provided for in the agreement will cost OFGC $205,220 for the installation and $36,600
per year in perpetuity at current rates for maintenance.
• The Transportation Division’s Review Appraiser, Harry Henderson, has estimated the fair market
value of Parcel 172FEE to be $111,000. Mr. Henderson’s valuation memo is attached. If the
parties were to become adversarial, significant risk factors would accrue to the County, including
exposure to exorbitant damages claims and liability for payment of attorney and exp ert witness
fees and costs.
Staff accordingly recommends that the Board of County Commissioners (Board) approve the agreement,
which provides for clear benefits to both parties, as a better result is not expected if Parcel 172FEE is
condemned.

FISCAL IMPACT: The fiscal impact associated with this item is estimated to be $143,600, being the
monetary consideration of $143,400 to be paid by the County to OFGC under the terms of the agreement
plus approximately $200 for recording and miscellaneous fees. The primary source for acquisition is
impact fees. Should impact fees not be sufficient within a particular project, the secondary funding
source will be gas taxes.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires majority vote
for approval. - CMG
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: This recommendation is consistent with the Long-Range
Transportation Plan and the Collier County Growth Management Plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve the attached agreement and authorize the Board’s Chairman to execute same on behalf
of the Board;
2. Accept the conveyance of Parcel 172FEE and authorize the County Manager, or his designee, to
record the conveyance instruments in the public records of Collier County, Florida; and
3. Authorize the payment of all costs and expenses that Collier County is required to pay under the
terms of the agreement.

Exhibit B
LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE SPECIFICATIONS
A. SOD ESTABLISHMENT
Perform sufficient watering to maintain adequate moisture for optimum development
of the sodded areas, no less than 1.5 inches of water per week for at least 2 weeks.
Thereafter, apply water for a minimum of 60 days as needed until the sod takes root
and starts to grow.
Irrigation can be waived if and only if there is a minimum of one inch of rain per
week on all sod on the project.
The sod shall produce a dense, well-established ground cover. Repair and re-sod all
eroded or bare spots as needed to ensure turfgrass cover sufficient of maintaining the
integrity of the slope with minimal erosion.
B. SOD MAINTENANCE
The minimum mowing height for established sod is 5 inches for all rural mowing
areas. If and when the adjacent areas are developed, the mowing schedule shall be
consistent with these future developments so that the sod does not appear to be
overgrown.
No more than one-third of the blade height of the desired grass (excluding seed
heads) should be removed during a mowing cycle. This will result in a healthier turf
better able to compete with undesired vegetation.
Do not scalp or mow excessively close to the soil surface. Mowing too low increases
soil temperature, contributes to erosion, lowers plant tolerance to cold and drought,
results in the thinning of the turf and increases undesirable vegetation.
Mow only when necessary. Consider seasons, locations and turf conditions when
scheduling mowing operations. Mowing should not be performed during periods of
drought or growth stress.
Never mow over debris that would damage the equipment or that might be picked up
and thrown out by the mower. Stop and remove objects, such as trash, limbs and
other debris, from the mowing area.

Packet Pg. 655 Attachment: Agreement (16126 : Olde Florida LMA - VBRX 60168)
C. FERTILIZATION
Granular fertilization shall be applied at the proper rate and frequency to all turfgrass
and plant material to maintain proper plant growth and health.
D. IRRIGATION
The irrigation system shall be checked and repaired as necessary. Maintenance
responsibilities will include cleaning and adjustment of heads, nozzles, installation or
replacement of risers, repair of PVC piping breaks or subsurface sprinkler
components, replacement of damaged valve boxes/lids and adjustment of controller
and rain shut off switches.
E. PRUNING
All plant material will be pruned as needed to maintain proper plant health.
F. PEST CONTROL
All turfgrass and plant material will be closely monitored for pests and diseases and
will be treated as needed by an individual holding a commercial applicator license
issued by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.
G. GENERAL
All sod maintenance, fertilization, irrigation, pruning and pest control will follow
guidelines established in the Florida Department of Environmental Protection
document, “Best Management Practices for the Enhancement of Environmental
Quality on Florida Golf Courses.”
