***********************************text break****************************************
Port of the Island is a unique development, which is located within the Urban Designated Area, but is
also totally within the Big Cypress Area of Critical State Concern. However, a portion of the development
was determined "vested" by the State of Florida, thus exempting it from the requirements of Chapter
380, Florida Statutes. Further, there is an existing Development Agreement between Port of the Islands,
Inc. and the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs dated July 2, 1985, which regulates land
uses at Port of the Islands. Port of the Islands is eligible for all provisions of the Urban Mixed Use District
in which it is located to the extent that the overall residential density and commercial intensity does not
exceed that permitted under zoning at time of adoption of this Plan.
***********************************text break ****************************************
Any comprehensive plan amendment to increase residential density within this District shall only provide
for that density increase via utilization of the transfer of development rights (TDR) program, except TDR
credits shall not be required for protects determined by the Board of County Commissioners to have a
public benefit.

B. Rural Fringe Mixed Use District [Page 76]
The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District is identified on Future Land Use Map. This District consists
of approximately 93,60077,200 acres, or 76% of Collier County's total land area. Significant
portions of this District are adjacent to the Urban area or to the semi-rural, rapidly developing,
large-lot North Golden Gate Estates platted lands. Agricultural land uses within the Rural
Fringe Mixed Use District do not represent a significant portion of the County's active
agricultural lands. As of the date of adoption,of this Plan Amendment the Rural Fringe Mixed
Use District consisted of more than 5,550 tax parcels and includeds at least 3,835 separate

and distinct property owners. Alternative land use strategies have been developed for the
Rural Fringe Mixed Use District, in part, to consider these existing conditions.
The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District provides a transition between the Urban and Estates Designated
lands and between the Urban and Agricultural/Rural and Conservation designated lands farther to the
east. The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District employs a balanced approach, including both regulations
and incentives,to protect natural resources and private property rights, providing for large areas of open
space, and allowing, in designated areas, appropriate types, density and intensity of development. The
Rural Fringe Mixed Use District allows for a mixture of urban and rural levels of service, including limited
extension of central water and sewer, schools, recreational facilities, commercial uses and essential
services deemed necessary to serve the residents of the District. In order to preserve existing natural
resources, including habitat for listed species, to retain a rural, pastoral, or park-like appearance from
the major public rights-of-way within this area, and to protect private property rights, the following
innovative planning and development techniques are required and/or encouraged within the District.
Any comprehensive plan amendment to increase residential density herein shall only provide for that
density increase via utilization of the transfer of development rights(TDR) program, except TDR credits
shall not be required for projects determined by the Board of County Commissioners to have a public
benefit.
1. Transfer of Development Rights (TDR), and Sending, Neutral, and Receiving
Designations: The primary purpose of the TDR process within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use
District is to establish an equitable method of protecting and conserving the most valuable
environmental lands, including large connected wetland systems and significant areas of
habitat for listed species, while allowing property owners of such lands to recoup lost value
and development potential through an economically viable process of transferring such
rights to other more suitable lands. Within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District, residential
density may be transferred from lands designated as Sending Lands to lands designated
as Receiving Lands on the Future Land Use Map, subject to the provisions below.
Residential density may not be transferred either from or into areas designated as Neutral
Lands through the TDR process.
A) Receiving Lands: Receiving Lands are those lands within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use
District that have been identified as being most appropriate for development and to which
residential development units may be transferred from areas designated as Sending
Lands. Based on the evaluation of available data, these lands have a lesser degree of
environmental or listed species habitat value than areas designated as Sending and
generally have been disturbed through development, or previous or existing agricultural
operations. Various incentives are employed to direct development into Receiving Lands
and away from Sending Lands, thereby maximizing native vegetation and habitat
preservation and restoration. Such incentives include, but are not limited to: the TDR
process; clustered development; density bonus incentives; and, provisions for central
sewer and water. Within Receiving Lands, the following standards shall apply, except for
those modifications that are identified in the North Belle Meade Overlay:
1. Maximum Density, except for Housing that is Affordable: The base residential
density allowable for designated Receiving Lands is one (1) unit per five (5) gross
acres (0.2 dwelling units per acre). The maximum density achievable in Receiving
Lands through the TDR process is one (1) dwelling unit per acre for the Belle
Meade and North Belle Meade Receiving Lands; and, two (2) dwelling units per
Words underlined are added; words stfuslfh are deleted
02/15/2022 mrm

9A
acre for the two Receiving Lands areas along Immokalee Road. This maximum
density is exclusive of the Density Blending provisions. Dwelling Units may only be
transferred into Receiving Lands in whole unit increments (fractional transfers are
prohibited). Once the maximum density is achieved through the use of TDR
Credits, additional density may be achieved as follows:
a) A density bonus of no more than 10% of the maximum density per acre shall
be allowed for each additional acre of native vegetation preserved exceeding
the minimum preservation requirements set forth in Policy 6.1.2 of theCCME.
b) A density bonus of no more than 10% of the maximum density per acre shall
be allowed as provided in Policy 6.2.5(6)b of the COME.
2. Maximum Density for Housing that is Affordable: For a project providing housing
that is affordable, a maximum density of twelve and two-tenths (12.2) units per acre
is allowed, consistent with Section 2.06.00 of the LDC, subject to rezone approval,
and subject to the approval of an "Affordable Housing Agreement." TDR credits are
not required, nor allowed, to achieve density.
3. Clustering: Where the transfer of development rights or provision for housing that is
affordable is employed to increase residential density within Receiving Lands, such
residential development shall be clustered in accordance with the following
provisions:
a) Consistent with the provisions of the Potable Water and Sanitary Sewer Sub-
elements of this Plan, central water and sewer shall be extended to the project.
Where County sewer or water services may not be available concurrent with
development in Receiving Lands, interim private water and sewer facilities may
be approved.
b) The maximum lot size allowable for a single-family detached dwelling unit is
one acre.
c) The clustered development shall be located on the site so as to provide to the
greatest degree practicable: protection for listed species habitat; preservation
of the highest quality native vegetation; connectivity to adjacent natural
reservations or preservation areas on adjacent developments; and, creation,
maintenance or enhancement of wildlife corridors.
3:- 4. Minimum Project Size: The minimum project size required in order to receive
transferred dwelling units is 40 contiguous acres, except no minimum project size
is required for the Receiving Lands areas along Immokalee Road.
4.5. Emergency Preparedness:
a) In order to reduce the likelihood of threat to life and property from a tropical
storm or hurricane event, community facilities, schools, or other public buildings
shall be designed to serve as storm shelters if located outside of areas that are
likely to be inundated during storm events, as indicated on the Sea, Lake, and
Overland Surge from Hurricane Map for Collier County. Impacts on evacuation
routes, if any, must be considered as well. Applicants for new residential or

mixed use developments proposed for Receiving Lands shall work with the
Collier County Emergency Management staff to develop an Emergency
Preparedness Plan to include provisions for storm shelter space, a plan for
emergency evacuation, and other provisions that may be deemed appropriate
and necessary to mitigate against a potential disaster.
b) Applicants for new developments proposed for Receiving Lands shall work with
the Florida Forest Service and the Managers of any adjacent or nearby public
lands, to develop a Wildfire Prevention and Mitigation Plan that will reduce the
likelihood of threat to life and property from wildfires. This plan will address, at
a minimum: project structural design; the use of materials and location of
structures so as to reduce wildfire threat; firebreaks and buffers; water features;
and, the impacts of prescribed burning on adjacent or nearby lands.
5,6. Allowable Uses: Uses within Receiving Lands are limited to the following:
a) Agricultural uses;
b) Single-family residential dwelling units, including mobile homes where a Mobile
Home Zoning Overlay exists.
c) Multi-family residential structures shall be permitted under the Residential
Clustering provisions of this plan, subject to the development of appropriate
development standards to ensure that the transitional semi
the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District is preserved. These development
standards shall include, but are not limited to: building heights, design
standards, buffers, and setbacks.
d) Rural Villages, subject to the provisions set forth in II. B.3 of this element.
e) Dormitories, duplexes and other types of staff housing, as may be incidental
to, and in support of, conservation uses.
f) Group housing uses subject to the following density/intensity limitations:
• Family Care Facilities: 1 unit per 5 acres;
• Group Care Facilities and other Care Housing Facilities: Maximum Floor
Area Ratio (FAR) not to exceed 0.45.
g) Staff housing as may be incidental to, and in support of, safety service facilities
and essential services;
h) Farm labor housing limited to 10 acres in any single location:
• Single family/duplex/mobile home: 11 dwelling units per acre;
• Multifamily/dormitory: 22 dwelling units/beds per acre.
i) Sporting and Recreational camps within which the lodging component shall
not exceed 1 unit per 5 gross acres;
j) Essential services.
k) Golf courses or driving ranges, subject to the following standards:

nonconforming lots or parcels in existence as of June 22, 1999, where such lot or
parcel is less than 5 acres in size, erne two (2) TDR Credits may be severed from said
lot or parcel.
3. Conditions Applicable to Base and Bonus TDR Credits:
a) Base TDR Credits may not be severed from Sending Lands where a conservation
easement or other similar development restriction prohibits residential
development.
b) The severance of credits shall be recorded in public records utilizing a legal
instrument determined to be appropriate by the County Attorney's Office. Said
instrument shall clearly state the remaining allowable lands uses on the subject
property after all, or a portion, of the residential density has been severed from the
property.
c) Where development rights have been severed from Sending Lands, such lands
may be retained in private ownership or may be sold or deeded by gift to another
entity.
d) The bonus provisions set forth in subsections 4 through 6 below are applicable to
properties from which TDR Credits were severed prior to and subsequent to the

nonconforming lot of record. This Bonus shall be granted upon the County's acceptance
of a Restoration and Management Plan (RMP) that is consistent with a listed species
management plan that includes habitat management, the removal of exotics and the
maintenance of the land exotic free. The property owner may contract with any of the
government agencies or contractors deemed qualified by the County for implementation
of the RMP. The property owner shall provide financial assurance, in the form of a
performance surety bond or similar financial security acceptable to the County, that the
RMP shall remain in place and be performed until the earlier of a) or b) below the
fell-owing occurs:
a) Viable and sustainable ecological and hydrological functionality has been achieved
on the property as measured by the success criteria set forth in the RMP.
b) The property is conveyed to a county, state or federal agency, as provided for in
subsection 5 below.
c) For Sending Lands properties in private ownership located within, or partially
within, the Belle Meade Hydrologic Enhancement Overlay (BMHEO), the

D)Additional TDR Provisions: Collier County has amended its land development regulations
to adopt a formal process for authorizing and tracking the Transfer of Development Rights.
This process includes the following provisions:
1. The establishment of a simple, expeditious process whereby private property owners
may, by right, "sell" residential dwelling units from lands designated as Sending Lands.
Said units (TDR Credits) may then be transferred by right to lands designated as
Receiving Lands, or to Urban Lands where authorized. Once established, the TDR
program shall be administratively reviewed and approved, requiring no further public
hearing or Board approval if consistent with the provisions for administrative approval.
2. The establishment of a process for tracking and recording all TDR Credits in the public
records of Collier County. This shall include the identification of the entity or
department responsible for on-going administration of the TDR program. In addition,
the County shall consider the feasibility of establishing a "TDR Bank," to be
administered by the County or some other not-for-profit governmental or quasi-
governmental public agency established for this purpose. A primary objective of the
TDR Bank is to make funds available to support the TDR program by offering initial
minimal purchase prices of TDR Credits.
3. Limitations and Procedures:
a) TDR Credits shall not be generated from Sending Lands where a conservation
easement or other similar development restriction prohibits residential
development.
b) The generation of TDR Credits through the severance of residential density from
Sending Lands shall be recorded in public records utilizing a legal instrument
determined to be appropriate by the County Attorney's Office.
c) Said instrument shall clearly state the remaining allowable land uses on the subject
property after all, or a portion, of the residential density has been severed from the
property.
d) Where residential density has been severed from Sending Lands, such lands may
be retained in private ownership or may be sold or deeded by gift to another entity.
4. The TDR process shall be the only mechanism to achieve increased density within
Receiving Lands, excluding: the Density Blending provisions of this Plani; Housing

that is Affordable in the Plan; and any density bonuses authorized in the Rural Fringe
Mixed Use District.
5. A 25-year prohibition on generating TDR Credits from any parcel, or portion thereof,
within Sending Lands has been cleared for agricultural purposes after June 19,2002.
6. A TDR Bonus Credit shall be issued to the owner of private property for each five
(5) acre parcel or legal nonconforming lot of record designated Receiving Lands or
Neutral Lands, at the transfer rate of one (1) additional TDR Bonus Credit for each five
acres or legal nonconforming lot of record, utilized for a conservation use. A perpetual
easement shall be placed on lands used for conservation uses to protect these lands
in perpetuity. A restrictive covenant in favor of Collier County will be placed on lands
used for conservation restricting the use in perpetuity to protect against non-
conservation development.
2. Buffers Adjacent to Major Public Rights-of-way: In order to maintain and enhance the
rural character within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District, within one year of adoption of
this amendment, Collier County will adopt land development regulations establishing
buffering standards for developments adjacent to existing or proposed arterial and
collector public roadways. These standards shall include, but are not limited to:
applicability provisions, including establishing a minimum project size below which these
requirements shall not apply; the degree to which water features, including water
management lakes and canals, may be a part of this buffer; credits for existing native
vegetation that is to be retained; and, credits toward any open space and native vegetation
preservation requirements.
3. Rural Villages: Rural Villages may be approved within the boundaries of the Rural
Fringe Mixed Use District in order to: maximize the preservation of natural areas and
wildlife habitat within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District; to reduce the need for residents
of the District and surrounding lands to travel to the County's Urban area for work,
recreation, shopping, and education; and, to enhance the provision of limited urban and
rural levels of service through economies of scale. Rural Villages shall be comprised of
several neighborhoods designed in a compact nature such that a majority of residential
development is within one quarter mile of Neighborhood Centers or Village Center.
Neighborhood Centers may include small scale service retail and office uses, and shall
include a public park, square, or green. Village Centers shall be designed to serve the
retail, office, civic, government uses and service needs of the residents of the village.
The Village Center shall be the primary location for commercial uses. Villages shall be
surrounded by a green belt in order to protect the character of the rural landscape and to
provide separation between villages and the low density rural development, agricultural
uses, and conservation lands that may surround the village. Villages shall be designed to
include the following: a mixture of residential housing types; institutional uses; commercial
uses; and, recreational uses, all of which shall serve the residents of the Village and the
surrounding lands. In addition, the following criteria and conditions shall apply, except for
those modifications that are identified in the North Belle Meade Overlay:
A) Process for Approval: The Collier County Land Development Code includes provisions
for the establishment of Rural Villages. These provisions establish specific

V. OVERLAYS AND SPECIAL FEATURES [Page 99]
A. Area of Critical State Concern Overlay
The Big Cypress Area of Critical State Concern (ACSC) was established by the 1974 Florida
Legislature. The ACSC is displayed on the Future Land Use Map as an overlay area. The
ACSC encompasses lands designated Conservation, Agricultural/Rural, Estates and Urban
(Port of the Islands, Plantation Island and Copeland). Chokoloskee is outside the boundaries
of the Big Cypress ASCS. Two areas located within the boundaries of the ACSC are exempt
from the ACSC regulations: Everglades City: and, Ochopee, which is described as all of
Sections 27, 28, 33 and 34, Township 52 South, Range 30 East.

C. Belle Meade Hydrologic Enhancement Overlay (BMHEO) [Page New]
The purpose of the BMHEO is to restore natural flow ways and rebalance freshwater flows into
two natural systems — Naples Bay and Rookery Bay. Naples Bay has been adversely impacted
over the years from an abundance of fresh water from the Golden Gate Canal; and, Rookery Bay
from increased salinity caused by too little freshwater inflow. The Comprehensive Watershed
Improvement Plan is a county initiative designed to address these adverse impacts with a series
of hydrologic improvements to rebalance these two natural systems while rehydrating
approximately 10,000 acres of land within and adjacent to the Picayune Strand State Forest to
reestablish historical flows through this area. As a result, lands within the BMHEO will have
standing water at varying levels depending on the location of these lands within the Overlay. The
Lands within the Core Hydration Area will be impacted by a larger volume of water and for a longer
period, and lands within the Primary and Secondary Flow Ways will be impacted to a lesser degree
(refer to BMHEO Map).
Lands within the BMHEO are under public and private ownership. Recognizing the public benefit
achieved through these hydrologic enhancements, private property owners within the BMHEO will
be eligible to participate in the Transfer of Development Rights Program, as provided within the
RFMUD TDR provisions herein.
************************************textbreak*************************************
CD. Natural Resource Protection Area Overlay [Page 120]
The purpose of the Natural Resource Protection Area (NRPA) Overlay designation is to protect
endangered or potentially endangered species and to identify large connected intact and relatively
unfragmented habitats, which may be important for these listed species. NRPAs may include
major wetland systems and regional flow-ways. These lands generally should be the focus of any
federal, state, County or private acquisition efforts.
NRPAs are located in the following areas:
1. Clam Bay Conservation Area (within Pelican Bay Plan Unit Development);
2. CREW(Corkscrew Regional Ecosystem Watershed);
3. North Belle Meade;
4. Belle Meade;
5. South Golden Gate Estates;
NRPAs located in the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District are identified as Sending Lands. Owners
of Rprivate property owners within these NRPAs may transfer residential development rights
from these important environmentally sensitive lands in accordance with Sending Lands
provisions.
Natural Resource Protection Areas (NRPAs) shall have the following standards:
1. Vegetation Retention and Site Preservation - Calculated at the higher value of 90% of the
native vegetation present, or 90% of the total site area, or as may otherwise be permitted
under the Density Blending provisions of the FLUE. Applicable standards provided for in
CCME Policy 6.1.2 shall also apply;
Words underlined are added; words are deleted

9A
2. Listed species protection shall be provided for as specified in COME Policy 7.1.2;
3. Permitted and conditional uses for publicly owned lands within an NRPA Overlay shall be
those as set forth under the Conservation Designation.
4. For privately owned lands within a NRPA Overlay and designated Sending Lands,
permitted and conditional uses shall be those as set forth in the Rural Fringe Mixed Use
District for Sending Lands.
5. For privately owned lands within a NRPA Overlay and designated Estates, permitted and
conditional uses shall be those as set forth in the Estates Designation within the Golden
Gate Area Master Plan, in recognition of Florida's private property rights laws. As these
privately owned Estates Designated lands are acquired for conservation purposes, the
Plan will be amended to change the Designation to Conservation.
6. There are approximately 15 sections of privately owned land within a NRPA Overlay
that are not designated Sending and are not located within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use
District(where all Sending Lands are located). Eight(8) of these sections, known as the
"hole-in-the-doughnut," are located within the South Golden Gate Estates NRPA and
surrounded by platted Estates lots, almost all of which have been acquired by the State
under the Florida Forever program as part of the Picayune Strand State Forest. The
remaining seven (7) sections are within an approved mitigation bank located north and
west of Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary. Uses on these lands are limited to restoration
and mitigation and, at the completion of this restoration process, these lands will be
deeded to a land management entity for conservation purposes. As these privately
owned Agricultural/Rural Designated lands are acquired for conservation purposes, the
Plan will be amended to change the Designation to Conservation. Until such time, in
recognition of Florida's private property rights laws, permitted and conditional uses for
these privately owned lands shall be those set forth in the Agricultural/Rural Mixed Use
District.

Port of the Island is a unique development, which is located within the Urban Designated Area, but is
also totally within the Big Cypress Area of Critical State Concern. However, a portion of the development
was determined "vested" by the State of Florida, thus exempting it from the requirements of Chapter
380, Florida Statutes. Further,there is an existing Development Agreement between Port of the Islands,
Inc. and the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs dated July 2, 1985, which regulates land
uses at Port of the Islands. Port of the Islands is eligible for all provisions of the Urban Mixed Use District
in which it is located to the extent that the overall residential density and commercial intensity does not
exceed that permitted under zoning at time of adoption of this Plan.

B. Rural Fringe Mixed Use District [Page 76]
The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District is identified on Future Land Use Map. This District consists
of approximately 93,60077,200 acres, or 76% of Collier County's total land area. Significant
portions of this District are adjacent to the Urban area or to the semi-rural, rapidly developing,
large-lot North Golden Gate Estates platted lands. Agricultural land uses within the Rural
Fringe Mixed Use District do not represent a significant portion of the County's active
agricultural lands. As of the date of adoption.,of this Plan Amendment,the Rural Fringe Mixed
Use District consisted of more than 5,550 tax parcels and includeds at least 3,835 separate
and distinct property owners. Alternative land use strategies have been developed for the
Rural Fringe Mixed Use District, in part, to consider these existing conditions.
The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District provides a transition between the Urban and Estates
Designated lands and between the Urban and Agricultural/Rural and Conservation designated
lands farther to the east. The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District employs a balanced approach,
including both regulations and incentives, to protect natural resources and private property
rights, providing for large areas of open space, and allowing, in designated areas, appropriate
types, density and intensity of development. The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District allows for a
mixture of urban and rural levels of service, including limited extension of central water and
sewer, schools, recreational facilities, commercial uses and essential services deemed
necessary to serve the residents of the District. In order to preserve existing natural resources,
including habitat for listed species, to retain a rural, pastoral, or park-like appearance from the
major public rights-of-way within this area, and to protect private property rights, the following
innovative planning and development techniques are required and/or encouraged within the
District.
Any comprehensive plan amendment to increase residential density herein shall only provide
for that density increase via utilization of the transfer of development rights (TDR) program,
except TDR credits shall not be required for projects determined by the Board of County
Commissioners to have a public benefit.
1. Transfer of Development Rights (TDR), and Sending, Neutral, and Receiving
Designations: The primary purpose of the TDR process within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use
District is to establish an equitable method of protecting and conserving the most valuable
environmental lands, including large connected wetland systems and significant areas of
habitat for listed species, while allowing property owners of such lands to recoup lost value and
development potential through an economically viable process of transferring such rights to
other more suitable lands. Within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District, residential density may
be transferred from lands designated as Sending Lands to lands designated as Receiving
Lands on the Future Land Use Map, subject to the provisions below. Residential density may
not be transferred either from or into areas designated as Neutral Lands through the TDR
process.
Words underlined are added; words struck through are deleted
04/27/2022 mrm

9A
A) Receiving Lands: Receiving Lands are those lands within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use
District that have been identified as being most appropriate for development and to which
residential development units may be transferred from areas designated as Sending
Lands. Based on the evaluation of available data, these lands have a lesser degree of
environmental or listed species habitat value than areas designated as Sending and
generally have been disturbed through development, or previous or existing agricultural
operations. Various incentives are employed to direct development into Receiving Lands
and away from Sending Lands, thereby maximizing native vegetation and habitat
preservation and restoration. Such incentives include, but are not limited to: the TDR
process; clustered development; density bonus incentives; and, provisions for central
sewer and water. Within Receiving Lands, the following standards shall apply, except for
those modifications that are identified in the North Belle Meade Overlay:
1. Maximum Density, except for Housing that is Affordable: The base residential
density allowable for designated Receiving Lands is one (1) unit per five (5) gross
acres (0.2 dwelling units per acre). The maximum density achievable in Receiving
Lands through the TDR process is one (1) dwelling unit per acre. This maximum
density is exclusive of the Density Blending provisions. Dwelling Units may only be
transferred into Receiving Lands in whole unit increments (fractional transfers are
prohibited). Once the maximum density is achieved through the use of TDR
Credits, additional density may be achieved as follows:
a) A density bonus of no more than 10% of the maximum density per acre shall
be allowed for each additional acre of native vegetation preserved exceeding
the minimum preservation requirements set forth in Policy 6.1.2 of the CCME.
b) A density bonus of no more than 10% of the maximum density per acre shall
be allowed as provided in Policy 6.2.5(6)b of the CCME.
2. Maximum Density for Housing that is Affordable: For a project providing housing
that is affordable, a maximum density of twelve and two-tenths (12.2) units per acre
is allowed, consistent with Section 2.06.00 of the LDC, subject to rezone approval,
and subject to the approval of an "Affordable Housing Agreement." TDR credits are
not required, nor allowed, to achieve density.
3. 2.Clustering: Where the transfer of development rights or provision for housing that
is affordable is employed to increase residential density within Receiving Lands,
such residential development shall be clustered in accordance with the following
provisions:
a) Consistent with the provisions of the Potable Water and Sanitary Sewer Sub-
elements of this Plan, central water and sewer shall be extended to the project.
Where County sewer or water services may not be available concurrent with
development in Receiving Lands, interim private water and sewer facilities may
be approved.
b) The maximum lot size allowable for a single-family detached dwelling unit is
one acre.
Words underlined are added; words filth are deleted
04/27/2022 mrm
5 of 30
9A
c) The clustered development shall be located on the site so as to provide to the
greatest degree practicable: protection for listed species habitat; preservation
of the highest quality native vegetation; connectivity to adjacent natural
reservations or preservation areas on adjacent developments; and, creation,
maintenance or enhancement of wildlife corridors.
3: 4. Minimum Project Size: The minimum project size required in order to receive
transferred dwelling units is 40 contiguous acres, except no minimum project size
is required for the Receiving Lands areas along lmmokalee Road.
4.5. Emergency Preparedness:
a) In order to reduce the likelihood of threat to life and property from a tropical
storm or hurricane event, community facilities, schools, or other public buildings
shall be designed to serve as storm shelters if located outside of areas that are
likely to be inundated during storm events, as indicated on the Sea, Lake, and
Overland Surge from Hurricane Map for Collier County. Impacts on evacuation
routes, if any, must be considered as well. Applicants for new residential or
mixed use developments proposed for Receiving Lands shall work with the
Collier County Emergency Management staff to develop an Emergency
Preparedness Plan to include provisions for storm shelter space, a plan for
emergency evacuation, and other provisions that may be deemed appropriate
and necessary to mitigate against a potential disaster.
b) Applicants for new developments proposed for Receiving Lands shall work with
the Florida Forest Service and the Managers of any adjacent or nearby public
lands, to develop a Wildfire Prevention and Mitigation Plan that will reduce the
likelihood of threat to life and property from wildfires. This plan will address, at
a minimum: project structural design; the use of materials and location of
structures so as to reduce wildfire threat; firebreaks and buffers; water features;
and, the impacts of prescribed burning on adjacent or nearby lands.
i} 6. Allowable Uses: Uses within Receiving Lands are limited to the following:
a) Agricultural uses;
b) Single-family residential dwelling units, including mobile homes where a Mobile
Home Zoning Overlay exists.
c) Multi-family residential structures shall be permitted under the Residential
Clustering provisions of this plan, subject to the development of appropriate
development standards to ensurer that the transitional semi rural character of
}the R oral Fringe Mixed--Use—tristri t ispreserved. se devel nt
standards shall include, but arc not limited to: building heights, design
standards, buffers, and setbacks.
d) Rural Villages, subject to the provisions set forth in II. B.3 of this element.

• Multifamily/dormitory: 22 dwelling units/beds per acre.
i) Sporting and Recreational camps within which the lodging component shall
not exceed 1 unit per 5 gross acres;
j) Essential services.
k) Golf courses or driving ranges, subject to the following standards:
(1) The minimum density shall be as follows:
(a) For golf course projects, including both freestanding golf courses and
golf courses with associated residential development: one TDR credit
shall be required for every five (5) gross acres of land area utilized as
part of the golf course, including the clubhouse area, rough, fairways,
greens, and lakes, but excluding any area dedicated as conservation
that is non-irrigated and retained in a natural state. Any residential
development associated with the golf course shall have a minimum
density of one (1) dwelling unit per five acres.
(2) Golf courses shall be designed, constructed, and managed in accordance
with the best management practices of Audubon International's Gold

D) Additional TDR Provisions: Collier County has amended its land development regulations
to adopt a formal process for authorizing and tracking the Transfer of Development Rights.
This process includes the following provisions:
1. The establishment of a simple, expeditious process whereby private property owners
may, by right, "sell" residential dwelling units from lands designated as Sending Lands.
Said units (TDR Credits) may then be transferred by right to lands designated as
Receiving Lands, or to Urban Lands where authorized. Once established, the TDR
program shall be administratively reviewed and approved, requiring no further public
hearing or Board approval if consistent with the provisions for administrative approval.
2. The establishment of a process for tracking and recording all TDR Credits in the public
records of Collier County. This shall include the identification of the entity or department
responsible for on-going administration of the TDR program. In addition, the County shall
consider the feasibility of establishing a "TDR Bank,"to be administered by the County or

for this purpose.A primary objective of the TDR Bank is to make funds available to support
the TDR program by offering initial minimal purchase prices of TDR Credits.
3. Limitations and Procedures:
a) TDR Credits shall not be generated from Sending Lands where a conservation
easement or other similar development restriction prohibits residential
development.
b) The generation of TDR Credits through the severance of residential density from
Sending Lands shall be recorded in public records utilizing a legal instrument
determined to be appropriate by the County Attorney's Office.
c) Said instrument shall clearly state the remaining allowable land uses on the subject
property after all, or a portion, of the residential density has been severed from the
property.
d) Where residential density has been severed from Sending Lands, such lands may
be retained in private ownership or may be sold or deeded by gift to another entity.
4. The TDR process shall be the only mechanism to achieve increased density within

Receiving Lands, excluding: the Density Blending provisions of this Plani; Housing
that is Affordable in the Plan; and any density bonuses authorized in the Rural Fringe
Mixed Use District.
5. A 25-year prohibition on generating TDR Credits from any parcel, or portion thereof,within
Sending Lands has been cleared for agricultural purposes after June 19, 2002.
6. A TDR Bonus Credit shall be issued to the owner of private property for each five (5)
acre parcel or legal nonconforming lot of record designated Receiving Lands or Neutral
Lands, at the transfer rate of one (1) additional TDR Bonus Credit for each five acres or
legal nonconforming lot of record, utilized for a conservation use. A perpetual easement
shall be placed on lands used for conservation uses to protect these lands in perpetuity.
A restrictive covenant in favor of Collier County will be placed on lands used for
conservation restricting the use in perpetuity to protect against non-conservation
development.
2. Buffers Adjacent to Major Public Rights-of-way: In order to maintain and enhance the
rural character within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District, within one year of adoption of this
amendment, Collier County will adopt land development regulations establishing buffering
standards for developments adjacent to existing or proposed arterial and collector public
roadways. These standards shall include, but are not limited to: applicability provisions,
including establishing a minimum project size below which these requirements shall not apply;
the degree to which water features, including water management lakes and canals, may be a
part of this buffer; credits for existing native vegetation that is to be retained; and, credits toward
any open space and native vegetation preservation requirements.
3. Rural Villages: Rural Villages may be approved within the boundaries of the Rural
Fringe Mixed Use District in order to: maximize the preservation of natural areas and wildlife
habitat within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District; to reduce the need for residents of the
District and surrounding lands to travel to the County's Urban area for work, recreation,
shopping, and education; and, to enhance the provision of limited urban and rural levels of
service through economies of scale. Rural Villages shall be comprised of several
neighborhoods designed in a compact nature such that a majority of residential development
is within one quarter mile of Neighborhood Centers or Village Center. Neighborhood Centers
may include small scale service retail and office uses, and shall include a public park, square,
or green. Village Centers shall be designed to serve the retail, office, civic, government uses
and service needs of the residents of the village.
The Village Center shall be the primary location for commercial uses. Villages shall be
surrounded by a green belt in order to protect the character of the rural landscape and to
provide separation between villages and the low density rural development, agricultural uses,
and conservation lands that may surround the village. Villages shall be designed to include
the following: a mixture of residential housing types; institutional uses; commercial uses; and,
recreational uses, all of which shall serve the residents of the Village and the surrounding
lands. In addition, the following criteria and conditions shall apply, except for those
modifications that are identified in the North Belle Meade Overlay:

a methodology for determining the rental and fee-simple market rates that will
qualify for such a credit, and a system for tracking such credits.
• A mixture of recreational uses, including parks and village greens.
• Civic, community, and other institutional uses.
• A mixture of lot sizes, with a design that includes more compact development
and attached dwelling units within neighborhood centers and the Village
Center, and reduced net densities and increasingly larger lot sizes for detached
residential dwellings generally occurring as development extends outward from
the Village Centers. A mixture of retail, office, and services uses.
3. Specific development standards, including but not limited to, maximum net
densities; required yards; landscaping and buffering, and building heights.
4. If requested by the Collier County School Board during the PUD and/or DRI review
process, school sites shall be provided and shall be located to serve a maximum
number of residential dwelling units within walking distance to the schools.
Accordingly, schools, if requested, shall be located within or adjacent to the Village

required permits were issued prior to June 19, 2002; or projects for which a Conditional use
has been approved by the County prior to June 19, 2002; or, projects for which a Rezone
petition has been approved by the County prior to June 19, 2002—inclusive of all lands not
zoned A, Rural Agricultural; or, land use petitions for which a completed application has
been submitted prior to June 19, 2002. The continuation of existing uses shall include
onsite expansions of those uses if such expansions are consistent with or clearly ancillary
to the existing uses. Hereafter, such previously approved developments shall be deemed
to be consistent with the Plan's Goals, Objectives and Policies and for the Rural Fringe
Mixed Use District, and they may be built out in accordance with their previously approved
plans. Changes to these previous approvals shall also be deemed to be consistent with the
Plan's Goals, Policies and Objectives for the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District as long as
they do not result in an increase in development density or intensity.
V. OVERLAYS AND SPECIAL FEATURES [Page 99]
A. Area of Critical State Concern Overlay
The Big Cypress Area of Critical State Concern (ACSC) was established by the 1974 Florida
Legislature. The ACSC is displayed on the Future Land Use Map as an overlay area. The
ACSC encompasses lands designated Conservation, Agricultural/Rural, Estates and Urban
(Port of the Islands, Plantation Island and Copeland). Chokoloskee is outside the boundaries
of the Big Cypress ASCS. Two areas located within the boundaries of the ACSC are exempt
from the ACSC regulations: Everglades City: and, Ochopee, which is described as all of
Sections 27, 28, 33 and 34, Township 52 South, Range 30 East.
***********************************text break**************************************
B. North Belle Meade Overlay [Page 102]
The North Belle Meade (NBM) Overlay is depicted on the FLUM. Uses shall be as provided for
in Receiving, Neutral, NRPA and non-NRPA Sending Lands, except as provided herein for
Neutral Lands in Section 24, Township 49 South, Range 26 East, and shown on the North
Belle Meade Overlay Section 24 Map. Development and preservation standards within this
Overlay shall be as provided herein.
************************************textbreak*************************************
C. Belle Meade Hydrologic Enhancement Overlay (BMHEO) [Page New]
The purpose of the BMHEO is to restore natural flow ways and rebalance freshwater flows into
two natural systems — Naples Bay and Rookery Bay. Naples Bay has been adversely impacted
over the years from an abundance of fresh water from the Golden Gate Canal; and, Rookery Bay
from increased salinity caused by too little freshwater inflow. The Comprehensive Watershed
Improvement Plan is a county initiative designed to address these adverse impacts with a series
of hydrologic improvements to rebalance these two natural systems while rehydratinq

approximately 10,000 acres of land within and adjacent to the Picayune Strand State Forest to
reestablish historical flows through this area. As a result, lands within the BMHEO will have
standing water at varying levels depending on the location of these lands within the Overlay. The
Lands within the Core Hydration Area will be impacted by a larger volume of water and for a longer
period, and lands within the Primary and Secondary Flow Ways will be impacted to a lesser degree
(refer to BMHEO Map).
Lands within the BMHEO are under public and private ownership. Recognizing the public benefit
achieved through these hydrologic enhancements, private property owners within the BMHEO will
be eligible to participate in the Transfer of Development Rights Program, as provided within the
RFMUD TDR provisions herein.
************************************textbreak*************************************
CD. Natural Resource Protection Area Overlay [Page 120]
The purpose of the Natural Resource Protection Area (NRPA) Overlay designation is to protect
endangered or potentially endangered species and to identify large connected intact and relatively
unfragmented habitats, which may be important for these listed species. NRPAs may include
major wetland systems and regional flow-ways. These lands generally should be the focus of any
federal, state, County or private acquisition efforts.
NRPAs are located in the following areas:
1. Clam Bay Conservation Area (within Pelican Bay Plan Unit Development);
2. CREW(Corkscrew Regional Ecosystem Watershed);
3. North Belle Meade;
4. Belle Meade;
5. South Golden Gate Estates;
NRPAs located in the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District are identified as Sending Lands. Owners
of Rprivate property owncrs within these NRPAs may transfer residential development rights
from these important environmentally sensitive lands in accordance with Sending Lands
provisions.
Natural Resource Protection Areas (NRPAs) shall have the following standards:
1. Vegetation Retention and Site Preservation - Calculated at the higher value of 90% of the
native vegetation present, or 90% of the total site area, or as may otherwise be permitted
under the Density Blending provisions of the FLUE. Applicable standards provided for in
CCME Policy 6.1.2 shall also apply;
2. Listed species protection shall be provided for as specified in CCME Policy 7.1.2;
3. Permitted and conditional uses for publicly owned lands within an NRPA Overlay shall be
those as set forth under the Conservation Designation.
Words underlined are added; words&truck through are deleted

4. For privately owned lands within a NRPA Overlay and designated Sending Lands,
permitted and conditional uses shall be those as set forth in the Rural Fringe Mixed Use
District for Sending Lands.
5. For privately owned lands within a NRPA Overlay and designated Estates, permitted and
conditional uses shall be those as set forth in the Estates Designation within the Golden
Gate Area Master Plan, in recognition of Florida's private property rights laws. As these
privately owned Estates Designated lands are acquired for conservation purposes, the
Plan will be amended to change the Designation to Conservation.
6. There are approximately 15 sections of privately owned land within a NRPA Overlay that
are not designated Sending and are not located within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District
(where all Sending Lands are located). Eight (8) of these sections, known as the "hole-in-
the-doughnut," are located within the South Golden Gate Estates NRPA and surrounded
by platted Estates lots, almost all of which have been acquired by the State under the
Florida Forever program as part of the Picayune Strand State Forest.The remaining seven
(7) sections are within an approved mitigation bank located north and west of Corkscrew
Swamp Sanctuary. Uses on these lands are limited to restoration and mitigation and, at
the completion of this restoration process, these lands will be deeded to a land
management entity for conservation purposes.As these privately owned Agricultural/Rural
Designated lands are acquired for conservation purposes, the Plan will be amended to
change the Designation to Conservation. Until such time, in recognition of Florida's private
property rights laws, permitted and conditional uses for these privately owned lands shall
be those set forth in the Agricultural/Rural Mixed Use District.
