Agenda 01/25/2022 Item #11A (Conservation Collier Active Acquisition List #10)01/25/2022
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve the tenth Conservation Collier Active Acquisition List (AAL) and
direct staff to pursue projects recommended within the A-Category in sequential order spending no
more than $14,065,100 within Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Fund (172), and direct staff to
start accepting applications for Acquisition Cycle 11 following a similar timeline to Cycle 10.
OBJECTIVE: To obtain Collier County Board of County Commissioners' (Board) approval to pursue
Cycle 10 project acquisitions and commence the process for Cycle 11.
CONSIDERATION: On December 3, 2002, the Board approved Ordinance No. 2002-63, as amended,
(Conservation Collier Ordinance) which implements the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Program.
On November 3, 2020, the Collier County electors approved the Conservation Collier Reestablishment
referendum with a 76.5% majority. Section 11 of the Ordinance provides for the Conservation Collier
Land Acquisition Advisory Committee (CCLAAC) to recommend qualifie d acquisition proposals for the
AAL to the Board for approval. On December 9, 2021, the CCLAAC selected qualified acquisition
proposals for inclusion on the AAL provided as a backup.
The proposed AAL has been separated into three (3) categories, A, B, an d C. The A-category includes
those properties the CCLAAC recommends the County Manager or his designee to actively pursue. The
A-category properties are also further prioritized as to which properties should be pursued first. The B -
category includes those properties that the CCLAAC does not recommend active pursuit of during the
current acquisition cycle but will retain and automatically re-rank in the next acquisition cycle. The C-
category properties are those that the CCLAAC does not recommend active purs uit of and will not
automatically be re-ranked in the next cycle, but which an owner may resubmit for consideration in a
subsequent cycle. The map provided as backup shows the location of all proposed Cycle 10 properties
along with currently owned Conservation Collier properties.
The process for evaluation by the CCLAAC included staff preparation and presentation of property
reports, called Initial Criteria Screening Reports (ICSR). Included in each ICSR was a scoring matrix
developed by staff, based on researched and observed data. The CCLAAC then reviewed these reports
and utilized the score as a tool along with staff’s recommendation, public input, and other intangible
criteria related to their individual expertise, to evaluate and rank the properties. P roperty Summary
Sheets, summarizing report data and explaining how properties met Program criteria, are also provided as
backup to the agenda item. The ICSRs have been posted on the Conservation Collier website:
https://www.colliercountyfl.gov/government/public-services/divisions/conservation-collier/public-
documents/tenth-cycle
At the December 9, 2021, CCLAAC meeting, the ranking of properties occurred after staff presented
summaries of all properties and public comments.
Several properties warrant efforts to make sure the Board is aware of specific issues. These include:
Sanitation and Bethune Road parcels - Barron Collier Partnership LLLP
Although staff recommends this property for the A-list because of its urban location and habitat quality,
the CCLAAC recommends it for the B-List to be considered in the next acquisition cycle. Public speakers
and the Committee discussion included concerns about potential contamination from the landfill and
adjacent Immokalee Water & Sewer Spray fields.

and the Committee discussion included concerns about potential contamination from the adjacent landfill
and adjacent Immokalee Water & Sewer Spray fields. The property owner removed the landfill from
the application in November 2021.
The adjacent historic 16-acre Eustis Landfill was opened in 1947 and closed in 1992. The County-
operated the landfill from 1980-1985 under a lease agreement with the current property owner. It closed
in 1992, with 20 years of required permit monitoring finally completed in 2012.
During Acquisition Cycle 9 in 2018, an environmental consultant performed a Phase 1 Environmental
Site Assessment (ESA) and found two (2) Recognized Environmental Conditions (REC) on the subject
property including localized household debris dumping on the edges and debris in the slough. The
consultant did not recommend further groundwater testing unless hazardous substances were found during
the removal of debris. Immokalee Water and Sewer District (IWSD) does have concerns regarding the
security of wells and ponds on the adjacent parcel accessed through the Barron Collier property at the
south end of Sanitation Road. Therefore, staff has agreed that if the Program acquires the property, staff
will coordinate with the IWSD to ensure the security of these areas.
The Pine Flatwoods area has been selectively logged of pine on the Sanitation property “parcel a” since
the last review of this property occurred in 2018. The owner advised they plan to treat exotics that have
come in because of the logging and clean up debris and/or rutting in the staging areas r esulting from the
logging effort. These areas will most likely need to be restored and have shown to already be more
susceptible to exotic vegetation due to the disturbance. Parcel b. has considerable ongoing dumping on
the property. This will be an additional cost to have ongoing waste removal.
HHH Ranch - Hussey Section 33
Both staff and the CCLAAC recommend this property for the A-list. These 252 acres within the Rural
Fringe Mixed Use District (RFMUD) Sending and Natural Resource Protection Area (NRPA) are
immediately adjacent to the east of the 960 acres acquired by Collier County in 2020. Red-Cockaded
Woodpeckers (RCWs) were observed in the areas of the parcels. RCWs have become quite rare in Collier
County. The property also has high utilization by the Florida panther.
Land Development Code (LDC) Section 2.03.08.A describes RFMU Sending Lands as those lands that
have the highest degree of environmental value and sensitivity, and they are the principal target for
preservation and conservation. LDC section 2.03.08.B. states:
The purpose and intent of the NRPA are to protect endangered or potentially endangered species
by directing incompatible land uses away from their habitats; to identify large, connected, intact,
and relatively unfragmented habitats, which may be important for these listed species; and to
support State and Federal agencies' efforts to protect endangered or potentially endangered
species and their habitats… These lands generally should be the focus of any federal, state,
County, or private acquisition efforts.
According to Collier County Transportation (GMD), a roadway may be aligned through the property.
GMD will be expected to follow the Exceptional Benefits Ordinance (2006-58) regarding any roadway
alignment if the property is acquired by Conservation Collier.
Barron Collier Partnership LLLC - Big Hammock Area 1
Both staff and the CCLAAC recommend this property for the A-list. This parcel contains an inactive oil
well. Staff ordered a Phase I ESA in 2018 to determine if there were any pollution concerns. The Phase I
ESA found three (3) RECs: the cattle pen, a staging area, and ag fields, but did not consider the oil well a
concern. Further soil and groundwater testing was recommended at a cost of $21,100. The CREW Trust
is willing to partner for this acquisition, offering $10,000 towards the purchase price of Area 1.

Barron Collier Partnership LLLC - Big Hammock Area 2
Although staff recommends this property for the C-list because it is already protected under the Rural
Lands Stewardship Area (RLSA) program, the CCLAAC recommends it for the B-List. This area is part
of SSA #13 and has Stewardship Sending Area (SSA) credits in escrow. No environmental testing was
done during Acquisition Cycle 9, as this area is a marsh and has not been used in the past for anything
other than cattle forage in the dry season.
Big Hammock Area II is within a Flowway Stewardship and Habitat Stewardship Area which has been
voluntarily requested by the landowner to be designated as an SSA. The Board should take into
consideration that Area II is within SSA #13 with credits in escrow. Therefore, as part of the existing SSA
Agreement, Area II is proposed to be protected from development and planned for restoration to obtain
credits to entitle development elsewhere within the RLSA. The remaining uses on the property would
include Agricultural Group 2 (unimproved pasture, grazing, livestock raising, etc.); Conservation,
Restoration, & Natural Resources. Barron Collier Partnership LLLC would be required to m aintain the
SSA #13 restoration areas in perpetuity in accordance with the SSA Agreement.
Staff would suggest that such areas not be acquired with tax-payer funds until such time that the SSA
Agreement is withdrawn. Further, Barron Collier Partnership LLLC has advised they will seek to obtain
R2 restoration credits after the (potential) sale to the County. Staff is of the understanding that the RLSA
strategy is to protect lands through incentives to keep maintenance costs out of public responsibility. The
RLSA program provides such areas as conservation with no cost to the public through its incentive
policies.
Here are summaries of the other properties on the Active Acquisition List which do not have specific
issues of concern at this time:
Dr. Robert H. Gore II Preserve Project
Both staff and the CCLAAC recommend these properties for the A-list These five (5) parcels are located
off Desoto Blvd. just north of I-75 in Golden Gate Estates. The addition of the five (5) parcels in the
application would expand the existing 170-acre preserve by 17.5 acres. The D’Angelo property on 40th
Ave SE would be a candidate to install parking for this recently acquired (2018) preserve that is still in
the process of having amenities installed. This area is within a historic wetland that connects with the
Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge (FPNWR) to the east, Picayune Strand State Forest (PSSF)
across I-75 to the south, and Fakahatchee Strand State Preserve to the SE across I-75.
Parcel near Shell Island Preserve - Magdalener
Staff recommended this property for the B-list to the CCLAAC due to the lack of budget in FY22 and its
lower vulnerability. However, the CCLAAC recommends it for the A-List. Staff is agreeable to an “A”
Ranking for this property as the CCLAAC ranked Acquisition List stays under the $14 million budget.
This 18.73-acre property is Adjacent to Conservation Collier Shell Island Preserve and Rookery Bay
National Estuarine Reserve along Collier Blvd, south of US41. The Public Transit and Neighborhood
Enhancement (PTNE) Division would like to reserve the right of way (ROW) for its bus stop
improvements within this property. PTNE would need to compensate the seller for the portion of property
needed for the bus stop improvements; this area would be excluded from the purchase by Conservation
Collier.
Rivers Road Preserve Project
Both staff and the CCLAAC recommend these properties for the A-list. The three (3) parcels totaling 29
acres are located south of Immokalee Road in the RFMU and would be an expansion of the existing 77-
acre preserve.
11.A

01/25/2022
Parcels near Panther Walk Preserve
Both staff and the CCLAAC recommend these properties for the A-list. These 20 parcels totaling 38.45
are within the Horsepen Strand. Some of the parcels are adjacent to the existi ng Panther Walk Preserve.
Collier County Stormwater Management has expressed that this is an important area for preservation to
provide natural water storage. Several public speakers spoke in favor of this project during the November
8, 2021, CCLAAC meeting.
Bayshore Parcels
Both staff and the CCLAAC recommend these properties for the A-list. These two (2) parcels totaling
71.16 acres are located at the terminus of Bayshore Drive. These easily accessible, urban parcels are
contiguous with the greater Rookery Bay ecosystem and protect diverse habitats from scrubby flatwoods
to the saltwater marsh. During the ranking meeting, public speakers spoke in favor of this project. A staff
member from the Naples Botanical Garden spoke and indicated an interest in partnership opportunities for
the management of the property.
Pepper Ranch Preserve Project
Staff recommended these properties for the B-list to the CCLAAC due to the lack of budget in FY22 and
its lower vulnerability. However, the CCLAAC recommends them for the A-List. Staff is agreeable to an
“A” Ranking for this property as the CCLAAC ranked Acquisition List stays under the $14 million
budget. The five (5) parcels, totaling 89 acres, are located on Trafford Oaks Road in Immokalee, south of
a portion of the Pepper Ranch Preserve. This would be an expansion of the existing 2,512-acre preserve to
provide resource protection.
Marco Island Parcels
Although staff recommended one (1) of the four (4) properties to the CCLAAC for the A -list, one (1) for
the B-list, and two (2) for the C-list based on each of the parcel’s habitat quality and cost, the CCLAAC
recommends two (2) of the four (4) parcels, for the A-list category, one (1) for the B-list, and one (1) for
the C-list. Staff is agreeable to an “A” Ranking for the two (2) properties ranked as “A” by the CCLAAC
as their final ranked Acquisition List stays under the $14 million budget. A high amount of gopher
tortoise activity has been documented on the two (2) parcels recommended for the A-list by the
CCLAAC. Burrowing owls were observed on the Watson Road parcel, which is recommended for the A-
list by both staff and the CCLAAC. There were several public speakers regarding these properties during
CCLAAC meetings where these were discussed. Marco Island City Councilman Rich Blonna attended
many meetings and has offered a partnership opportunity to assist with signage and pathway connections.
The City of Marco Island has also offered to assist in providing off-street parking on pervious material
and the installation of signage consistent with the City’s Land Development Codes.
Multi-parcel projects
Both staff and the CCLAAC recommend that the Red Maple Swamp (North Golden Gate Estates Unit 53)
and Winchester Head projects remain as A-List acquisition areas and that staff continue to acquire parcels
in these areas. During Acquisition Cycle 9 in 2018-19, the Board provided staff with direction to continue
to acquire in these areas. In FY20 and FY21, off-site preserve donation funds were used to acquire parcels
in these areas. In anticipation of funding in FY22, appraisals were obtained, and letters were sent to
property owners in August and September of 2021. Within Red Maple Swamp, 222.96 acres have been
acquired, 20 acres are in process for acquisition in FY22, and 63 acres remain to be acquired. Within
Winchester Head, 93.5 acres have been acquired, 2.28 acres are in process for acquisition in FY22, and 61
acres remain to be acquired. Multi-parcel project properties in process for FY22 total $354,000.
CCLAAC proposed to add another $200,000 for FY22 for an estimated total of $554,000 to be spent in
FY22 for multi-parcel projects.

Preserve expansion parcels
Both staff and the CCLAAC recommend these properties for the A-list. The preserve expansion parcels
identify specific parcels immediately adjacent to the existing Panther Walk and Dr. Robert H. Gore III
preserves. If the specific parcels shown on the Preserve expansion maps (Attachment 3) within these
expansion areas come available for sale and there is a remaining budget after A-list properties are
acquired then these parcels can be made offers.
ADVISORY COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS: On December 9, 2021, at 5 pm, the CCLAAC
met in a public meeting and selected qualified acquisition proposals for Board consideration . CCLAAC
recommends 39 properties comprised of 1,144 acres, plus multi -parcel properties, for a total of 1,193
acres for the “A” list category to be acquired within Acquisition Cycle 10. The total projected acquisition
cost for these CCLAAC recommended properties is $12,147,482.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff agrees with the AAL ranked by the CCLAAC (Attachment 1)
except for the Big Hammock Area II. Staff recommends this property be placed on the C -list until such
time that the SSA Agreement is extinguished.
FISCAL IMPACT: The total estimated cost of all properties under consideration in Cycle 10 is
$33,174,000. The total estimated cost of all CCLAAC recommended A-list properties in Cycle 10 is
$12,147,482.
Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Fund (172) currently has $14,065,100 available in the FY22
budget for land acquisition. Assuming available dollars ($14 million) are used for land acquisition, staff
recommends that offers are made in sequential order until $13,510,900 are spent, leaving $555,000 for
acquisition in multi-parcel projects for FY22. $355,000 is already in process within the multi-parcel
projects.
Assuming available cash ($14 million) is expended for the acquisition of properties, it is estimated based
on current FY22 revenues, that approximately $18 million would be available annually for land
acquisition through FY31 if Cycles are completed sequentially.
Approval of the attached AAL and direction to actively pursue the Cycle 10 CCLAAC recommended A -
category projects will result in estimated acquisition costs (appraisals, title commitments, and surveys) of
$218,000. Operating funds are available in the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Fund (172) for this
expense.
Funding for the management of any lands acquired by the program is budgeted in a separate Conservation
Collier Land Management Fund (174), which is funded via a transfer of 25% of the net Conservation
Collier ad valorem tax levy.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Fee-simple acquisition of conservation lands is consistent with
and supports Policy 1.3.1(e) in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element of the Collier County
Growth Management Plan.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The Conservation Collier Ordinance (No. 2002-63, as amended), in
Section 11, provides a legal framework for the development of the Active Acquisition List. The
recommendation to acquire A-List properties on the Active Acquisition List falls within this legal frame.
As such, this item is approved form and legality and requires a majority vote for Board action. - JAB
RECOMMENDATION: To approve the tenth Conservation Collier Active Acquisition List (AAL) and

Acquisition Considerations for Areas I & II:
1. Exotic Vegetation Removal and Restoration: The current owner has requested to
perform the restoration including exotic vegetation removal on Area II after the sale
to Conservation Collier to obtain the R2 Restoration Credits. Timeframe in which these activities are to take place is to still be
determined.
2. Property Survey: The owner is offering parcels which include portions that are not legally segregated at present. The map of the project
location is conceptual in nature. Therefore, staff has been advised by the Collier County Real Estate section to request that a Boundary
Survey (signed & sealed) performed by a Professional Surveyor and Mapper be provided by the seller to depict the exact boundary of the
property being offered to Conservation Collier.
3. Oil, Gas, Mineral Rights: Sale of Areas I & II do not include OGMs. If the Board of County Commissioners desires a surface waiver,
the Collier entities are willing to provide a surface waiver for 6% of the purchase price for their interest.

BCC Conservation Collier Property Summary
Big Hammock Area I & II Cycle 10
4. Stewardship Sending Area: The Advisory Committee and Board of County Commissioners should take into consideration that Area II is
within SSA #13 with credits in escrow. Therefore, as part of the existing SSA Agreement Area II would be protected from development
and will be restored to obtain credits to entitle development elsewhere within the RLSA. The remaining uses on the property include:
Agricultural Group 2 (unimproved pasture, grazing, livestock raising, etc); Conservation, Restoration, & Natural Resources. BCP would
be required to maintain the SSA 13 restoration areas in perpetuity in accordance with the SSA Agreement.
Information regarding SSA #13 (from ICSR presented to CCLAAC July 2021):
The project achieved no points for vulnerability because its zoning classification favors conservation under the existing Stewardship Sending
Area (SSA) Credit Agreement (Resolution 2009-302). The owner has voluntarily requested the land be designated as an SSA (#13). The
owner will retain the Stewardship Credits (in escrow) and offer only surface rights to Conservation Collier, retaining the oil, gas,
and mineral rights. The SSA agreement will remove the following six (6) Land Use Layers in order: Residential, General Conditional
Uses, Earth Mining & Processing, Recreational, Agricultural Group 1, and Agricultural Support (see Exhibit T in ICSR.)
The 730-acre portion of the SSA being offered to Conservation Collier equates to approximately 10% of the 7,417-acre SSA #13. The
current owner has banked (placed in escrow) the Base Credits, Early Entry Credits, and R1 Restoration Credits in the amount of
20,916.1. The escrow includes the following credits for the entirety of SSA #13: Base Credits (12,999.3) Early Entry Credits (1,317.6) and
R1 (restoration) Credits (6,599.2). At 8 Credits per acre, credits from the 730-acre portion of the SSA would entitle approximately 261
acres of future development. Additional R2 Restoration Credits (6,599.2) would be approved upon successful completion of the proposed
restoration plan. The applicant has requested to perform the restoration including exotic vegetation removal on the property after
the sale to Conservation Collier to obtain the R2 Restoration Credits.

• Surrounding land uses: Residential single family, multi-family, PUD, and Utility (Immokalee Water
and Sewer District offices, wells, and spray fields.
• All Criteria Score: 272 out of 400.
• Acquisition Considerations:
o Landfill: The property contains the historic 16-acre Eustis Landfill was opened in 1947 and was closed in 1992. It was in operation
before current hazardous waste disposal regulations were in place; is unlined; and likely has direct contact with the aquifer. The
County operated the landfill from 1980-1985 under a lease agreement with the current property owner. It closed in 1992, with
20 years of required permit monitoring finally completed in 2012. Although the Eustis landfill met state closure requirements, the
list of analytes monitored didn’t include pesticides, especially legacy pesticides such as Chlordane and DDT, that were commonly
used before they were banned. In addition, the well sampled for the final closure requirements may not have been representative
as it may not have been downgradient of the groundwater flow which is known to fluctuate. Groundwater samples obtained
from Immokalee Water and Sewer failed to provide indications of contamination because they were downgradient and therefore
in the wrong location. Samples taken from the middle of the landfill in 2012 showed that the site met permit requirements.
Therefore, further testing may be completed outside of the landfill within the area being offered for sale prior to any potential
acquisition of the property. Such testing could include groundwater and/or soil testing; Collier County Pollution Control will be
consulted on the parameters for testing.
Please note: The property owner has offered to remove the landfill and a 50-foot buffer from the sale.
o Access: There is access at Sanitation Road, however, there has been a security concern expressed by Immokalee Water and Sewer
regarding public use of this lime rock road as it leads to sensitive areas. Additionally, the Immokalee Water and Sewer indicated
they have an access easement over Sanitation Road and would need to continue to have this as it is their only access to section 8,
where their spray fields are located. An access point off of South 9th Street would be the only access point for visitors to access
parcel a. Therefore, access to the south part of parcel a. would necessitate a boardwalk through the slough to take visitors to the
southern end of the parcel.
o Restoration: The Pine flatwoods area has been selectively logged of pine on the Sanitation property “parcel a” since last review of
this property occurred in 2018. The owner advised they plan to treat exotics that have come in as a result of the logging and clean
up debris and/or rutting in the staging areas resulting from the logging effort. These areas will most likely need to be restored and
have shown to already be more susceptible to exotic vegetation due to the disturbance.
o Dumping: Parcel b. has considerable ongoing dumping on the property. This will be an additional cost to have ongoing waste
removal.

Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Advisory Committee (CCLAAC)
RE: CCLAAC Ranking Process
The CREW Land & Water Trust would like to express our support for the ranking and acquisition of
nominated parcels: Pepper Ranch Preserve Project and the Barron Collier Partnership Big Hammock
Area I.
Over the years, Conservation Collier has successfully acquired lands within the greater 60,000-acre
Corkscrew Regional Ecosystem Watershed (CREW) Project. This investment has continued to ensure
flood protection, water quality, resource protection, provide habitat for many protected species along
with providing recreational opportunities for the public. Both parcels would additionally add to these
ecological benefits listed above as they are adjacent to the Pepper Ranch Preserve. The connectivity of
these parcels to the Pepper Ranch Preserve will also help to facilitate on-going maintenance for county
staff. Ecologically, both parcels have diverse habitats resulting in listed species being present. Both
parcels also have hydrologic benefits to the greater CREW watershed.
The CREW Land & Water Trust requests that both parcels receive high prioritization during your
ranking process due to their ecological and hydrological significance. We are also committed to
contributing $10,000 for the acquisition of these two nominations to show our support.
Thank you for your consideration,
Executive Director
CREW Land & Water Trust

I as a tax payer and have lived on Marco Island coming up on 18 yrs it makes me very very sad to see that the borrowings
owls, gopher tortoises and other wildlife have been pushed off lands that have occupied for years all so these
developers and builders can make a fast buck. Look I am all for people moving here but at the rate in the last few years
has tripled.
I feel along with conservative of certain properties I feel very very strongly that a moratorium should be put on builders
and developers for at least 5‐10 years. Not only for our precious wildlife and shorebirds but just to slow down. Our
infrastructure on this island has deteriorated in the last 5 yrs and nothing is really being done about it as far as I can see,
the construction vehicles have ruined the main roads and especially the side roads where the construction is going by
leaps and bonds. I don’t want Marco Island to turn into a little Miami or Ft Lauderdale and I am sure many others who
have been here for a long time are as frustrated as I am, again as a taxpayer I would rather have my tax dollars go to
saving our wildlife and shorebirds because that is one of the reasons I moved here.
We need more green space, the more concrete and asphalt you have the more flooding happens on a lot of our roads,
there is no place for the water to drain naturally.
I don’t know if one of your places to preserve is in front of the Marco cemetery but that would be a spot to leave alone
and never build on.
I support Dr. Blonna on this cause because I don’t want my tax dollars spent on foolishness that means more building of
anything. Put a moratorium on building, because the only ones benefiting from that is the developers and builders, the
all mighty dollar that’s all they are concerned about.
Thank you for your time and letting me voice my opinion.
