P R O C E E D I N G S
MR. BOSI: Chair, you have a live mic.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you, Mr. Bosi.
Good morning, everyone. I'm glad to see that we managed to squeeze in everyone who wanted
to be in attendance at this meeting, and I love all your red shirts, too. Thanks for being here.
Everyone please rise for the Pledge of Allegiance.
(The Pledge of Allegiance was recited in unison.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: I forgot one little technicality, and that was I hereby call to order this
meeting of November 2, 2023, of the Collier County Planning Commission.
Before we call on the secretary to call the roll, I'm informed that we have a commissioner who
would like to ask that he be permitted to participate electronically.
Commissioner Klucik, are you there, sir?
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Yes, thank you, Mr. Chairman. I would. Unfortunately, I had
some -- once again, had some things come up that just can't be delayed for a client. So I apologize. I
can be here remotely, though.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you very much. Understood. And I'll entertain a
motion to permit his participation.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Make a motion to allow for his participation. I can't even talk
this morning.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
Is there a second?
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Second.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: All in favor, please say aye.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Aye.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Aye.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Aye.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Aye.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Aye.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: (No verbal response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Opposed?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Welcome to your participation, Commissioner Klucik.
And with that, I'll ask the secretary to please call the roll.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Chairman Fryer?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Here.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Vice Chair Schmitt?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Here.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Secretary Shea is here.
Christopher Vernon?
(No response.)
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Commissioner Vernon is not coming.
Commissioner Klucik is on Zoom.
Commissioner Sparrazza?
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Here.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Commissioner Schumacher?
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Here.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Ms. Lockhart?
MS. LOCKHART: Here.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: We have a quorum, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you very much.

And just to complete the record, Commissioner Vernon's absence is excused. We are very
liberal with that policy anyway, but especially so for individual commissioners who work in the working
world. And we think it's good diversity, if you will, to have representatives who are still employed
professionally engaged in the community along with the rest of us, like myself, who is retired, though it
doesn't feel that way.
So we're glad that we have working folks up here, and we're always very liberal in handling those
excused absences or the participation by phone when necessary to accommodate their day job -- their
other job. So thank you.
Addenda to the agenda, Mr. Bellow.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: He's not here.
MR. BOSI: Mike Bosi, Planning and Zoning director.
Mr. Bellows has the day off. He -- as the zoning manager, he -- his world really doesn't touch
the AUIR/CIE. So we have Kathy Eastley, the primary principal project manager for the AUIR. She
did a great job. This is her first year involved in it, and she's taken Ray's place, so to speak.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Today, yeah. Well, that's great. And, Ms. Eastley, certainly, I would
never compare you in looks to Ray Bellows. I just hadn't looked over there. So my earnest apologies,
and warm welcome.
MS. EASTLEY: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: All right. Let's see.
Planning Commission absences. Our next meeting is on November 16, 2023. Does anyone
know if he or she will not be available?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: It looks like I will not be available for that meeting.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you.
So then -- anybody else?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: All right, good.
So then our meeting after that is actually two sessions, and it's going to be December 7, Pearl
Harbor Day, if you will, and this meeting will start at 3 p.m. for the daytime agenda item or items, and
then we'll reconvene at 5:05 p.m. for the items that have to be heard in the evening.
Does anyone know whether he or she is unable to attend those meetings?
COMMISSIONER SHEA: I will be unable to attend those meetings.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you. It looks like we'll have a quorum in both cases,
nonetheless, so that is a good thing. Thank you.
And just a reminder that there will be no second December meeting. The December 21 meeting
has been canceled due to the holidays.
Approval of the minutes: We have none in front of us today for action.
BCC report/recaps, Mr. Bosi.
MR. BOSI: On the October 26th BCC meeting, the Board of County Commissioners did
approve the Ascend project, the GMP amendment as well as the PUD, for the affordable housing across
from Island Walk, as well as, on the summary agenda, the GMP and PUD for the Lutgert storage facility
near The Haven. That was also approved on summary agenda.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Mike, a question on the -- on the airport authority. Did they
continue to oppose that proposal, do you recall? On the Board, it was a 4-1 vote, as I recall. But
was -- did the matters that we worked out here carry over, or was there still continued opposition?
MR. BOSI: The applicant and airport authority came to a mutual agreement upon the language
within the aviation [sic] easement.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yeah.
MR. BOSI: But they did request that it be placed on the regular agenda for the Board's -- for the
upcoming, the 12 -- or the 11/14 BCC hearing.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: I'm just not real comfortable with that because of the fact that we spent a
lot of time working with them to come to a consensus on what was represented to us, I believe, as being
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 7 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)

the only contested issue, and then to have the airport authority say, well, we want to keep the thing open
as if -- as if there were others that weren't put forth to us, which appears to be the case, I think is not
entirely cricket from one government agency to another, and I don't -- I take somewhat umbrage of that.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: I also understand -- and, again, it was reading articles -- that the
airport authority, though, of course, it's not our involvement, because it's the City of Naples, but they're
looking at a study to relocate the airport.
I mean, is there any realm of possibility, feasibility that there is even a location, unless we go all
the way to the Dade County/Collier County line, of any location for an airport, other than we have three
other airports in this county, Immokalee, Marco Island, and what's the one --
MR. BOSI: Everglades?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: City -- down off 41?
MR. BOSI: Everglades?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Everglades City, thank you.
MR. BOSI: And I haven't spoken with Transportation staff, which the airports are underneath.
I don't believe that they have any -- spent any time contemplating that relocation.
I'm sure they will be involved with some of the -- some of the consultant work that's -- and
research that's going to be associated with this study. But, you know, I think anything's possible, but I
would -- just my own -- my own assessment, it would be extremely hard to relocate the airport in terms of
another location just because of the sensitivity that airports bring in relationship to a land use. I think
airports -- airports and landfills are two of the hardest things to sit in terms of a land-use arrangement.
So I'm not sure all of the political issues that rose to arrive upon the City of Naples
commissioning the study, but we will participate in any way that they ask us to participate.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Well, when you look at the Rural Land Stewardship and you
look at the Future Land Use Map, it's pretty clear. I think we can probably advise, for free, rather than
them spending $5 million, and I can do the study in about three and a half minutes. No, there's no place
feasible.
Thank you. Send me the check.
MR. BOSI: And we agree. It's most certainly going to be -- it's an uphill -- it's an uphill climb.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: You're absolutely right, of course, and there's a lot more background that
I won't --
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: I'm sure the city is --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: But it's purely political, and it has to do with one of the HOAs, just one
of the HOAs making the loudest noise. That's all I'll say.
Okay. Let's see. We don't have anything else on the BCC report, or do we?
MR. BOSI: No, that's it for the BCC report.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Chair, if I may, just a question.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yes, please go ahead.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: During the County Commissioners meeting, there was
discussion for -- is that Lakewood? Or down off of 41 and towards --
MR. BOSI: I think -- the Riviera Golf?
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Where they're talking about that was going to go to a
HEX, and the commissioners were talking about sending that either back to here, or is it going to them
only?
MR. BOSI: No. That related to a future conditional use that will be before the Planning
Commission and then ultimately the Board of County Commissioners. It's called STARability, related to
a conditional use within the Lakewood golf course.
That petition is still in the staff review, and the applicant has indicated that they are making some
significant revisions to the application. It's going to have to have another neighborhood information
meeting, so you're at least six months away from that coming to you.
That was requested by Commissioner Kowal to not go the single route to the HEX. Because of
the heightened public interest, that was directed to go to the Planning Commission and to the Board of
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 8 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)

County Commissioners.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Okay.
MR. BOSI: What they decided upon was -- the representative of the Lakewood community,
Mr. Tony Pires, had submitted an official interpretation asking me what constitutes a neighborhood
fitness community center, and within that submittal, he had indicated that it was a very narrow focus in
terms of reach that that neighborhood fitness community center could have. My interpretation was a
little more broadly in terms of the reach -- the market area that could be served by a community center.
He has -- he has appealed that. So instead of taking that to the HEX, the Board of County
Commissioners said, take that directly to the Board of County Commissioners to hear the arguments.
Tony's perspective is he wants to -- he wants to challenge the STARability project, that it doesn't
fit the criteria of a neighborhood fitness community center. Staff's interpretation, like I said, is a little bit
more broad. We feel that the conditional-use process will evaluate the compatibility and the
appropriateness of that facility in relationship to where it's being proposed. So the Board will provide an
ultimate decision on that appeal of the OI.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: And it will pause along the way to be heard by the Planning Commission
as well?
MR. BOSI: Well, that -- the OI doesn't -- the OI and the appeal of the OI will have no --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, the official interpretation --
MR. BOSI: It won't come to the Planning Commission, but after -- once the STARability project
has its second neighborhood information meeting, you know, has satisfied staff review, the next stop from
that will be the Planning Commission, you'll make a recommendation, and then the Board of County
Commissioners will ultimately make that decision upon that.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
Okay. Chairman's report: None today.
Consent agenda: None today.
***That takes us to our first and only public hearing, advertised. It is PL20230013268, the
AUIR and CIE for 2023.
Mr. Bosi.
MR. BOSI: Thank you.
Chair, Planning Commission, like I said, we have a presentation. I'm going to give an overview
of just the overall AUIR/CIE and its purpose. As you can see by the seats, the general public for -- you
know, does not have a strong interest/role within this, but I think the general public does appreciate what
the AUIR and CIE represents. It represents maintaining of the levels of service that we've identified for
infrastructure and service providers through the general purpose county government. But I'll get to my
PowerPoint presentation, and we'll go over that.
Again, Mike Bosi, Zoning and Planning director.
AUIR/CIE. In the planning world, we are famous for our acronyms, and this is another one of
those acronyms. AUIR is the Annual Update and Inventory Report. It's a one-year snapshot in time of
the projected needs and the required capital improvements for the next five years based upon our
projected population increases against the BCC adopted levels of service. It should be noted that this
snapshot changes as the demand equation changes and evolves.
One of the things about the AUIR/CIE, it's an annual process. There are no real surprises when
we come to you every year. It's a continuation of the program that we had put forward in the prior year,
which builds upon the other prior year.
The long and short of the AUIR is how much expected population do we -- do we expect over the
next five years, and what are the necessary infrastructure expansions to be able to handle the additional
demands that that population will put upon our infrastructure and also our individual service providers.
And the thought behind this and why we perform this -- and as a sidenote, Collier County is the
only county -- and it has been for 15 years that I've been involved in the AUIR. We're the only one who
really gets to this type of level of specificity. We're the only one who performs the Annual Update and
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 9 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023

Inventory Report.
Most other jurisdictions, cities or counties, they'll perform updates to the CIE, but not -- and the
CIE really covers your concurrency management infrastructure providers. The AUIR also covers a
category, Category B, which is law enforcement, which is jails, which is government space, which is
EMS, libraries, portions that really don't get addressed within your Capital Improvement Element, but we
maintain -- we include them in the AUIR to make sure that we are maintaining the adopted levels of
service that we have.
And also, we have a Category C, which is coastal management.
So we have a unique process that we've developed, and we utilize it, like we said, to continue to
make sure that we can administer our Concurrency Management System but make sure we also maintain
the expectations of our community in terms of how they experience our infrastructure and our facilities.
There's three categories. A, which is the concurrency facilities: Road, drainage, potable water,
wastewater, solid waste, parks and recreation, and schools; and they're all tied to the Capital Improvement
Element. The only components that are required by statute currently would be potable water,
wastewater, solid waste, and drainage. Those -- the other, roads, parks and recreation, and schools, those
are -- the county has chosen to maintain those as part of the Concurrency Management System by
individual board decision to maintain those within the Category A.
Our Category B are jails, law enforcement, libraries, EMS, and government buildings, as I noted,
and the Category C has your beach and inlets.
So concurrency. What is concurrency? I kind of hit upon this. It's facilities and services
necessary to maintain the adopted levels-of-service standards that are available when the impacts of
development occur, which are contained within the CIE policies in the Land Development Code.
So when a land-use petition comes before you and they're proposing 400 units within a segment
on Airport Road, our chairman goes back, looks at the prior AUIR, looks at the road segments, looks at
the volume capacity that's associated with them, and oftentimes you'll ask questions in terms of roadway
capacity. Is there enough to satisfy the additional demands that that project's going to be providing for?
So it plays a critical role within the approval process that the Planning Commission and the Board
of County Commissioners are asked to do related to land-use petitions to ensure that there's adequate
projects in the pipeline or there's adequate capacity within the system to be able to handle those additional
demands that are associated with that individual request.
The CIE, it's driven by population, as I've said. Our year-round population, it's provided by the
University of Florida Bureau of Economic and Business Research -- another acronym, it's BEBR -- and
we utilize the medium-range projections. But we also know January, February, and March we've got a
seasonal population, and that seasonal population places additional demands upon that infrastructure, and
we have to have the capacity to be able to handle that additional demand.
Our seasonal population is a 20 percent increase over our permanent population. That's based
upon traffic counts, that's based upon wastewater and potable water usage, solid waste disposal rates. So
there's science that we've utilized to confirm that that is the appropriate number that we have to utilize
from a seasonal point of view.
And then the question is, how much do you build? And I always use libraries as the example,
because they are -- it's pretty straightforward. It's new population times your level-of-service standard,
and that equals your Capital Improvement program.
So for this next five years, we expect 28,338 people. We have an adopted level-of-service
standard. It's .33 square feet per person. So the math is simple. You take your 28,388, and you
multiple it by .33, and to maintain the system -- the concurrency -- or the system for libraries and the
adopted level of service, we'd need to build 9,352 square feet additionally to be able to handle the new
demands that are coming in.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: What if you have existing capacity? Why are you just doing the
addition if you don't have -- you could have enough capacity?
MR. BOSI: Well, that's just the first part of your question. That's how much you need. So
then you would -- and each one of your -- each one of your summary pages will say, what's the required
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 10 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023
Page 7 of 48
capacity and what's the existing capacity? If you've got existing capacity that exceeds your required
capacity, no projects are needed to satisfy a deficiency, because you've got a surplus.
And it's funny you pointed that out. We built the south library sometime around 2005/2006.
We've had capacity since we've constructed that library. It put us way over our required capacity, so we
haven't proposed a new library in over a decade and a half because of that additional capacity.
But that's simply to show how -- the trigger of how much you need to be able to satisfy, and then
that's compared against what is our existing square footage or our existing quantity of that infrastructure
provided.
And, please, feel free to ask questions at any time.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. I'm going to say this, though. Certainly the Planning
Commission can ask questions whenever they feel the need or desire to, but I think we might be more
efficient if we go section by section. For instance, the subject of the libraries is something that I expect
Commissioner Shea has more to say about, and I have some things to say about it. I'm sorry that
Commissioner Vernon isn't here, because he also had expressed concerns. But I'm going to save those
specific comments until we get to the section on libraries.
Having said that, Planning Commissioners, I mean, you can ask whenever.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Thank you.
Mr. Bosi, I looked through the report. I admit I may have missed it. But can you give me a
little bit of background on BEBR and how accurate they have been in the past? We use them, it
seems -- and, Board, please assist me. We use them for basically everything that this program's
discussing. And I kind of looked back. I only saw information on the 2010 census and the 2020 census,
but that's a 10-year gap.
Have -- has their rate of accuracy been within a tolerable range?
MR. BOSI: And that is the demographic population projection source that the state identifies for
each county and jurisdiction.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Correct.
MR. BOSI: And here's how it traditionally works. The further you get out from the census
year, the more degrees of deviation that you're going to have within the estimations and the population.
They do a really good job: Building permits issued, electrical hookup. They really get into
some real quantifiable means to be able to project moving into the future, but as we know, it's a regression
analysis that you try to project moving forward. So there's a lot of other variables that have to be brought
into it.
The decennial census provides a kind of checkup and just a reset, and the further you get from the
2010, the 2020 census, the more deviation you're probably going to get in terms of their projections. But
we find when we're in these first three or four years in proximity to the census, we find that the population
projections normally will provide a degree of accuracy that we are confident in.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: That you're comfortable with, okay.
MR. BOSI: Yes.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: And, for example, in a simple term, if we looked at
2012 -- if in 2012 we looked back at what 2010's actual numbers were, were they close to what BEBR
predicted?
MR. BOSI: And I'll give you -- I'll raise you a decade. We'll go to 2022. In 2022, we looked
back when the census numbers really -- because it was about a year and a half, two years before
the -- when the census is provided and published towards when it really becomes true to -- there's a
trueing up of the numbers.
We found that we were a bit ahead of ourselves -- BEBR was a bit ahead of themselves as to what
they were expecting our population to be. It was about a 10,000-person difference between what we
expected -- what we said was here in 2020, and then 2022 looked back and said, no, it was -- we're going
to take about 10,000 persons away because we were -- we overestimated what that population would be.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: So the final answer, I believe, it sounds like the county is
very comfortable continuing to use BEBR plus or minus X percent. It's not like, oh, my gosh, they've
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 11 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)

Page 8 of 48
been 50 percent off for these last X years; we should find a different way.
MR. BOSI: No, and there was a time when I first started this in 2006/2007. We didn't utilize
the BEBR medium population. We used the BEBR high population. We were a much -- we were a
more rapidly growing community than what we currently are as we start to mature.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Yeah.
MR. BOSI: And as you see --
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: It does steady out.
MR. BOSI: You look at the urban area. The urban area, there's no 150, 250 green space,
non-environmentally sensitive parcels of land just sitting out there. So the growth that we are projecting
are going to be associated with the towns and villages of the RLSA. Some towns and -- or some villages
associated with the Rural Fringe Mixed-Use District. And if you look at the buildout rates of those
communities, they tend to be a little bit slower than what our urban community -- our urban community's
buildout rates are. So I think that the switch that they did declare that we, you know, switch to the
medium rate is appropriate.
And here's the -- I guess the final thing I would say related to the accuracy. It's not like we do
this every five years or every 10 years, and we look back and say, oh, gosh, we were so far off. We do it
every year. So every year it allows kind of another opportunity to true up a little bit. So because it's an
annual thing -- and like I said, there's really no surprises within the AUIR/CIE. There's -- most of the
time -- and this is how our Capital Improvement programming works.
Our Transportation has a 2045 Long-Range Transportation Plan. They identified all the facilities
that would be needed and could be funded. We have got long-range master plans for our facilities
department. We've got long-range master plan for almost every one -- all our infrastructure providers.
We identify projects within our long-range plan. And then as those out-years become closer,
they start -- they come into our CIE. Our CIE is made of two separate planning periods. Our 6- to 10-,
those are projects that are needed, but they're not quite -- you know, they're not -- they're not ready for
prime time, so to speak. They're out there in that 6- to 10-year, but we put them.
And then they graduate to the first five years, and that's the next five years, the current period, the
category -- or Exhibit A, we call it, within the CIE, and that's the -- that's the projects that we know we
need within these next five years.
And then there's -- another subset of that five-year period is in your first two years. Those are
the projects that we really have to identify where the funding source is going to be, because those projects
are almost -- are ready to be let, meaning that they're ready to initiate the construction phase.
So it's an elongated process. So there's no real -- there's no real surprises, and there's plenty of
opportunities for trueing up and making sure that the projects that are being proposed are projects that are
truly needed and they're focused within the right geographic area and they're providing the necessary
relief so we can move forward with the additional development requests that we are constantly asked to
do.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Thank you very much. I appreciate your time on that.
MR. BOSI: And it was a perfect segue.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: I knew.
MR. BOSI: So -- and thank you, Commissioner Sparrazza. It gives me the opportunity.
So this is the last seven years of the AUIR. It started in 2017. And if you look, 2017, our
annual population growth and percentage-wise it was -- you know, we're just under 2 percent, and we're
hanging at that for about four years. We were between 1.97 and 1.9. And then right after the decennial
census, we started to see BEBR's projections for the county to start to throttle back a bit, and we dropped
from 1.9 to 1.77, and then in 2022 we dropped to 1.51, and then in 2023, we dropped to 1.42.
Now, I will admit, the laws of large numbers starts to kick in when you're going -- when you're
at -- when you're a 20,000-person county, like we were in the '40s, you know, adding 8,000 people is a
huge percentage increase. When you're at 400,000, 405,000 permanent population, it starts to -- it starts
to change with that percentage. But with all that being said, the number of persons that we're seeing
compared to -- from 2017 to 2023. In 2023 we're expecting 28 -- like I said, 28,533 people.
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 12 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023
Page 9 of 48
If we would look back at the 2017 AUIR, that five-year period, it was actually a projection of
about 40- to 42,000 people. So not only are -- you know, our annual percentages are declining, but the
real people that are coming, the number of people, has been drawn back a bit. And I think most people
in this town would probably be surprised at that statement, but that's the reality, and I think it has a lot to
do with the changing nature and the placement of where that development is being focused upon,
meaning the eastern portion of the county. But I also think issues of affordability and insurability are
things that -- I think everyone on this commission would understand and would agree that those are great
concerns to the long-term viability of what our populations and what our populations eventually will be.
But it's not just population. It's a key metric in the level-of-service standards for most facilities,
but there's exceptions. Roads and bridges, great example. They use traffic counts collected multiple
times a year, plus a trip bank to reserve capacity. So it's not just population that dictates, but it's the
Concurrency Management System in addition to the traffic that counts that influence where the proposals
and where the demand is expected to be.
Wastewater and water, they use historical demand usage, plus population projection, plus
additional capacity for the reserves. The Board of County Commissioners, especially within the utility
system, asks us to be more conservative to make sure that that facility is available when needed.
If you're -- good example -- and I don't want to pick on parks, but let's use parks. You've got
acreage per capita. If you go to Veterans Memorial and your kid wants to swing on the swing and he has
to wait five minutes for the swing because it's occupied, you know, that's one thing, but if your kid has to
go to the bathroom and that capacity is not -- not available within the system, that's another thing. So
that's one of the reasons why we're a little bit more conservative when it comes to wastewater and potable
water.
We always want to make sure that when you open up the tap, that that water's going to be able to
flow and that when you kind of hit the -- hit the other side, that it's going away as well without any issues.
Because in about 2000/2001, we had -- we had some issues with wastewater capacity, and that has
influenced the Board of County Commissioners in terms of being a little bit more conservative in that
area.
Stormwater, it's based its studies in water management -- water management master plans that set
the baselines. Solid waste is landfill disposal capacity. I'll give the accolades right now, and I always
do this, and you guys are probably tired of hearing this, but one of the things people always say about
what does local government do for you -- and I think local government does a lot for its citizens. But
Solid Waste is one of those good-news items that I like to trumpet in terms of, you know, patting
ourselves on the back.
When I started in 2006/2007, the expected capacity of the landfill was at 2017. And if you look
to our AUIR, it's at 2060, 2062 that we expect that useful life. So that gives us a lot of time to be able to
plan and prepare for what the next step and the next evolution of solid waste disposal can be. And there's
a little bit of -- I don't want to say hope, but there's an expectation that technology and technology
advances are going to continue to allow us to push that useful life further and further.
But that's one of the things that, you know, was a good-news story, because one of the other
aspects is, I remember sitting in a meeting with Former County Commissioner [sic] Jim Mudd and a
number of representatives from the eastern property owners, the Rural Lands Stewardship Area large
landowners, and their greatest concern, one of their biggest issues was, where is this next landfill going to
be? Because we were looking at it, you know. And we really didn't have answers for that. It's kind of
like sitting [sic] of an airport, like I said. Sitting of a new landfill, that's difficult to do.
But through the work that Solid Waste has done with their waste management partners, we've
been able to extend that out, like I said, an additional 50 years and, hopefully, over that 50 years we'll find
some additional technologies to help extend that moving further.
And then, finally, adopted master plans and sustainability standards is what drives our coastal
zone, which is our Category C, which is a unique commodity that sits out by itself.
And this is one the last slides that I have, and this is related to the concurrency management
proposal expenditures. As you can see, we've got a pretty aggressive schedule over the next five years,
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 13 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023
Page 10 of 48
not even including schools, which has -- has their own funding and their own program, but it is part of our
Concurrency Management System.
We have over $2 billion worth of capacity improvements scheduled for the next five years to
handle the additional capacities. But if you look on the right-hand side, one of the things that we
will -- we're going to have to tackle one way or another is there's about 500 -- 500 million that we have
identified, but we haven't identified a funding source. So that will be something that we will have to
continue to work on as a -- as a county government as a whole with the Board of County Commissioners
to try to find the additional revenue to fill those gaps.
What I can tell you, that that deficit is associated with projects that are in years 3, 4, and 5, so
they're not the ones that we are letting out of the barn, so to speak. Those ones are the ones that we have
dedicated funding to. It's the latter years of the next five years that we'll have to find additional revenue
sources to be able to satisfy the projects to be able to main the levels of service that we have.
And that is the end of my overview presentation. And I think the Chair had mentioned or had
indicated that we traditionally go -- we'll go section by section just following the order of the AUIR, and I
know -- I know Transportation and Stormwater and Utilities are here and ready to take over for me.
But any questions that you may have on just the overview portion of the AUIR, or do you want to
just jump into the sections?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Before I call on Commissioner Shea, the one thing that I have as a
general overview, when the time comes for us, I believe, to vote to recommend approval, I'm going to ask
that we attach a condition or at least some language that urges the Board of County Commissioners to
make it a very high priority to find the funding for the funding shortfalls, because I don't -- I mean,
we're -- at the end of each of these sections, it says what staff is asking the Planning Commission to do is
to recommend this for approval. And I'm fine with that, because I think you guys have done a terrific
job, but at some point we've got to -- I mean, we're, what, a half a billion dollars short on a five-year
basis, and I think it behooves us to be sure that when we sign off, that we make the Board of County
Commissioners aware of the fact that we were keenly aware of this and calling for some kind of a
solution.
And with that, I'll call on Commissioner Shea and then the Vice Chairman.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Yeah, that's kind of like a 25 percent shortfall.
My comment is I just wanted to thank you for the summary. Usually we get all these individual
reports, and we have a piece of paper on the side that we're trying to add them up and see how the
overall -- next year it could use probably a little more overview of the whole program. But thank you for
doing that, because we haven't seen that in the past.
MR. BOSI: I will -- and I will defer that accolade onto Kathy, who, like I said, she's for sure
taken over, but she's done a great job and has brought some individual improvements to the process that
we're very pleased with. And so we'll accept it, but we'll accept it on behalf of Kathy.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: And I second that observation of Ms. Eastley's work.
Vice Chairman.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: I just have a comment on, I believe, one of the issues that -- and
I'm going to discuss for Stormwater, because I believe -- even though it's a huge amount of money, I
believe it's an overstatement of the need. And why do I say that? Because this county, and most of the
growth in this county for the last 25 years, probably even 30 years, has been controlled through -- through
development of communities that require permitting through the South Florida Water Management
District, and they had to deal with stormwater runoff, stormwater retention through the -- or through the
permitting process.
Those shortfalls are in areas that are older communities that have done nothing in regards to
solving their problem, and somehow that onus is on the entire county now to solve what I would call
local -- localized problems for lack of stormwater services in the older communities.
So you're asking every taxpayer in the county to basically pay for what wasn't done in some of
these older communities.
I think the shortfall there should be made up by either MSTBU or other type of service -- taxing
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 14 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023
Page 11 of 48
authorities to focus strictly on those communities.
And I've spoke about this before to the Board of County Commissioners. Because the -- like I
said, most of the county that has developed through the PUDs that go through the permitting
process -- even straight zoning that go through the permitting process through the state require stormwater
management. That's an issue that's politically charged for our Board of County Commissioners. Are
they going to have the entire -- because at one time we talked about a stormwater tax or a
stormwater -- what was it? Proposed a couple years ago. There was a stormwater --
MR. BOSI: Was it a stormwater impact fee?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: No. It was a stormwater --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Surtax?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: It was a stormwater tax that was going to be paid -- that was
going to be added to the county, and our wonderful County Manager is going to come up and tell us about
that.
MR. BOSI: Well, I was going to say one of the benefits -- and I think what you've -- your
indication of where you're going to go in terms of a stormwater review, luckily one of the attendants of
the public is our County Manager, who stormwater is very near and dear to her heart. So I think she may
have some --
(Simultaneous crosstalk.)
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Look over your shoulder. She's right behind you.
MR. BOSI: I felt her coming up.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: No. So in that regard -- and I guess -- it may not be overstated.
It is a requirement. The real issue is, does everybody pay for what was not done 40 and 50 years ago
versus do we focus solely on those communities and figure out how do we raise revenue to solve the
problems in those communities that didn't require permitting through the South Florida Water
Management District and stormwater requirements?
Now, that said, there may be other things that -- and improvements that would be certainly
beneficial countywide, and I don't debate that. So that would be something that, yes, that we -- all the
taxpayers ought to be paying for that.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Can I follow up on that? That is a question for you. In there was a
package on responsibility, which canals, which areas.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yes.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: And there was a huge group of green called "other," and I was going
to ask what other is, and I think you just answered it for me.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: They were older communities.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: But the community has the responsibility to maintain it?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: That's the debate. I'm not a -- I'm not an elected politician -- so
it's a policy issue for our board.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: That's the "other," though, on that?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: That's the "other." I don't -- Amy may be able to -- that was
Amy's -- before she was the --
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Mr. Chairman?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: -- appointed County Manager, she got to wrestle with all these
issues.
MS. PATTERSON: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: County Manager, before you start --
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Mr. Chairman?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: -- Commissioner Klucik wants to be heard.
Go ahead, Commissioner.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Yes. Just -- I'm very curious to -- you know, to just have our
memories refreshed about that.
There was going to be a tax increase is what I recall regarding stormwater, and then somehow
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 15 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023
Page 12 of 48
that got deviated or postponed or canceled, whatever. And I am curious about, you know, just a refresher
and what was proposed and then why it went away and, you know, what the plan at the time was, and
then now what are we faced with because we delayed that or -- we didn't, but the county commissioners
delayed or decided to deviate from that revenue source.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Manager Patterson.
MS. PATTERSON: Yes. Amy Patterson, County Manager, for the record.
So what we're talking about is the stormwater utility concept.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: That's what it was.
MS. PATTERSON: So it's an idea that has been floated a few times in the past and
unsuccessfully each time. The idea being that it is a statutory assessment, and it looks at the runoff that
is specific to individual properties and basically develops a methodology to assess for the cost of that
runoff.
So post Hurricane Irma, there was real interest in development of the stormwater utility. It made
its way all the way to the vote of the Board of County Commissioners when they elected not to move
forward with it. In part, because of heavy opposition by Golden Gate Estates. There were some issues
with the calculations for impervious surface in Golden Gate Estates that just couldn't be overcome.
What makes the stormwater utility an ideal instrument in a perfect world is that, again, it ties the
demand to, then, a fee that's collected. So it's very specific. There's a statutory methodology that has to
be followed in order to be able to impose it. It is a special assessment, so a below-the-line. Not a tax,
but a fee. I know, Commissioner McDaniel, if you're watching, I'm sorry, but it is a fee by statute.
And so part of that, and what we were dealing with with the private communities, as
Commissioner Schmitt is referring to, is the newer communities do manage and maintain their own
stormwater systems. And so in this mechanism was -- or in this instrument was a mechanism to be able
to address that to say that there was a credit, essentially, to those communities because it wasn't on the
county to maintain them and, therefore, you weren't paying, they weren't paying, at the same rate as
somebody that may be in an older community or where the maintenance responsibility was solely on the
county. So that's a difference between something like Lely Resort and Golden Gate City.
The numbers represented in the AUIR are a variety of projects throughout the county in older
areas but also in our backbone system. So those are things like updates to our water control structures
which benefits everybody in the way we control water, but also things like projects in Golden Gate City,
which would be a complete rehabilitation of the stormwater system in an aging community. The
infrastructure there is better than 50 years old and is literally crumbling in the ground.
The other issue in Golden Gate City is they're on septic, so that's a multi-pronged issue and the
subject of a very large master plan.
Isles of Capri is another example that is in desperate need of stormwater updates, but they are also
on septic. So these will become partnership projects with either our own public utilities or with the
utility responsible for those areas; City of Naples, City of Marco Island. We have the same thing going
on down in what we call the West Goodlette area. Partnership projects, removing septic systems and
placing people on sanitary sewer by the City of Naples, but necessary stormwater upgrades for those folks
who are -- in that case a really interesting situation is they're in the City of Naples Water/Sewer District,
but they're actually residents of the unincorporated Collier County, so stormwater is our responsibility.
And so those types of projects are what you see in the AUIR.
Is there a better way to fund stormwater? Perhaps. And will we be revisiting the stormwater
utility in the future? Again, perhaps, with an idea that we position it a little bit differently than the
complicated way we went about it the first time, but also, again, as an attempt to really place that cost
where those who benefit pay and those who are managing their own water don't, except they'll continue to
pay property taxes.
It's also a diversification of our property taxes, which -- property tax revenue, which are going to
fund the stormwater programs both on the capital side of the house and on the maintenance side of the
house.
This also becomes a bondable instrument, should we head that way, which provides a sustainable
5.A.a

funding source.
Last thing I'll say, one thing that has created part of this issue with stormwater is that during the
recession, it was one of the areas that was most heavily hit in the reductions in their budgets, and it's very
hard and takes a long time to recover from that, the inadequate funding. And when you're choosing
between one health/safety and another, something has to give. There's only so much money to go
around. But stormwater is still climbing back out of that position that they were in when there wasn't
enough money to do projects, and we got further behind on maintenance.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Vice Chairman.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Great summary. I remember well.
And you hit the nail right on the head, because combined with stormwater runoff is the other
issue most people in this county don't want to talk about, and that is getting off of septic and putting most
of those older communities -- get them off septic and onto water/sewer, which is a -- it's the third rail in
this county when we talk about the cost and the impact fees. And without getting into great detail -- and
you and I both know the history of that, and so do the rest of the staff on the cost. Especially
Golden -- or the Estates; it was enormous what would be paid.
And the issue becomes, do we, as an entire community, pay for it, or is it just to the people who
are impacted and they pay. And, you know, we're talking 10-, $15,000 per home.
And like that, the same thing when you look at -- and does the staff look at those communities
that have CDDs? They're their own taxing authority. And we have many communities in this -- in this
county that are CDDs that raise revenue to pay for those services: Roads, sidewalks, water/sewer -- not
water/sewer but stormwater that are paid for in those CDDs by the people who live within that
community. They pay for that -- that service that's provided.
We have a lot of areas that -- the older areas in this county that don't have any type of taxing
authority to raise that kind of money to fix some of the things that need to be done. North Naples is
another great area.
MS. PATTERSON: Naples Park.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Naples Park.
MS. PATTERSON: Yes, twenty streets in Naples Park are underway in a massive capital
project dealing with water, wastewater, and stormwater combined. Same thing happened off of
Vanderbilt and the finger streets. They are all under county maintenance, county responsibility;
stormwater, roads. So they're different than a lot of the gated communities where that goes on internally.
That does come back to the county for our responsibility and our ongoing maintenance.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: And then for our board's edification, what was that, Amy,
maybe 18 years ago the Dover-Kohl study for Naples Park --
MS. PATTERSON: Yes.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: -- where the county did propose to create some kind of a local
taxing for the homeowners in that area for beautification, and there was going to be some money from the
county as well, but it was overwhelming opposed by the community. And it was another area that we
backed off. And here we are 20 years later still trying to deal with the same problem, homes that are still
on septic, and stormwater. And I know the City of Naples is running through the same problems. So
that's -- those are all policy decisions. Those are above our pay grade, I guess, is what I want to say.
But they're all on your shoulder, by the way.
MS. PATTERSON: They are policy decisions, but --
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: In case you didn't know.
MS. PATTERSON: Yeah. I think this is going to be an ongoing conversation as we look
at -- we're at the end of the round of funding provided by the Board; $16 million provided to the
stormwater capital program to really start to tackle some of these big projects. We're going to be closing
that funding out this year, and that's going to open this conversation of what the future of stormwater is.
Is it the stormwater utility? Is it an MSTU/MSBU, something like that? Something more sustainable
perhaps than what we're doing.
And, again, remember that behind all of this -- and we talk about capital -- is a tremendous

maintenance load. And there are a lot of the backbone portions of the stormwater system that are still
our maintenance responsibility separate than the Water Management District, and that benefits everybody.
So we have to look at each of these components separately, because every drop of water in this county
ends up moving its way towards the Gulf of Mexico, and so that water-quality element and how we
effectively manage that stormwater is a benefit to everybody that lives here. We just are trying to figure
out how to rightsize that.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
MS. PATTERSON: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you, Manager. I have a question, if I may.
MS. PATTERSON: Of course.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: This relates to persons per household --
MS. PATTERSON: Ah.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: -- which is a subject that you and I have had, well, from my perspective,
very informative conversations about over the years, and I certainly acknowledge your level of excellence
and expertise. You come to your current job with a huge background in knowing how all of that works,
and I learned a great deal about all that from you and also Mike Bosi and Jamie French and others.
In the -- in the staff report, on Page 5 of it, there's a term used "persons per total dwelling unit,"
and that number that is offered here is 1.645. And the -- I am enthusiastic about this, and I want to find
out where we are on an evolutionary process.
Back when we were talking about the villages, it seemed to me as though Growth Management
Plan amendments that were being sponsored by large residential developments wanted to show high
occupancy and -- no, I've got that wrong. Vice versa -- low occupancy, and commercial GMPAs wanted
to show higher occupancy to show the demand for the services. And it seemed to me as though it would
be worthwhile if we could all agree upon using one number whether it's an advocate for commercial or
advocate for residential.
And the BEBR number is around 2.4, something like that. And I have learned from you, County
Manager, and from Mr. Bosi and others, that that BEBR number doesn't take account of certain -- certain
factors that need to be addressed, such as vacancy rates and the like. So -- and, of course, those factors
do need to be addressed both by the applicants for residential and those for commercial.
With this 1.645 -- I guess I'm coming to my question here -- does this indicate that we're maybe
getting closer to a point where we can move away from the 2017 EMS numbers without embracing
BEBR, which is too high?
MS. PATTERSON: Yes, sir. So first of all, the benefit of the 2020 census, but the other
exciting thing is is that every one of our impact fees is currently under study. So we are going to have
the opportunity not only to look at the 2020 census as well as all new and refreshed data, but we're going
to have a whole new set of impact fee studies coming forward that will let us have a look at how they
compare to this as well as, in fact, how they compare to that 2016 EMS study, and we'll see just how far
apart we are.
There have been a lot of changes at the legislative level that have driven other changes to the way
that we approach the impact fees. We'll be excited to share that with you in the, probably, upcoming
months and how that relates to these persons per household or persons per dwelling unit numbers.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you very much.
And, also, thank you for oversight of the entire staff effort to pull this AUIR/CIE together. It's
always -- it's an admirable effort. It's very useful. To my way of thinking, it's most of the county's
business operations. It gives us a chance to look at and react to. So thank you very much.
MS. PATTERSON: Thank you so much. I probably will be back for EMS, if you-all are going
to have specific questions on EMS.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, good. Perfect. Thank you so much. Good.
All right. Commissioner Schumacher.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Ms. Patterson, I just had a question. Going back to

stormwater, two questions.
The older communities, is it a question of responsibility where they're saying "it's not our
responsibility" and the county's saying, "well, it's yours because it's your utility," or is it just a
non-maintained item within that community that's now at a point where it needs to be revitalized?
MS. PATTERSON: Generally not -- generally, it is county maintenance responsibility, so
there's not -- there's not a question of the homeowners not doing what they're supposed to do.
Now, we have had some isolated cases in older HOAs and things where they've needed help with
some aging infrastructure and, of course, we stand ready to go in and provide that technical assistance.
While the responsibility is on them, we do have teams that go out and assist. But areas that we're
speaking about are ones that don't have a formal HOA. They don't have -- they're not private roads or
private stormwater systems. They're actually under the maintenance responsibility of the county. And
they're all over the place. Neighborhoods up and down Goodlette Road, for example; generally
speaking, non-gated communities.
And it's just a matter of prioritization and really getting our arms around what a maintenance
schedule looks like. And Golden Gate Estates; huge maintenance responsibility in Golden Gate Estates
for a network of swales. When we were doing the analysis for the stormwater utility, looking at our
ability to be able to maintain those swales, the average -- or the best practice is maintaining a swale about
every 12 years. Our calculation showed that we were being able to maintain the swales about every 50
years. So if I saw you today, I wouldn't see you again probably while I was alive.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: No, I understand because I live on one of those streets.
MS. PATTERSON: Ah, yes.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: I know the idea behind Golden Gate Estates is obviously
we can't clear more than 40 percent. You're supposed to retain your own stormwater. So on that
impervious tax, is that just based off what the footprint of your house and patio was; whatever is a solid
surface that can't absorb the water and then is watershedding off is where that tax would come in?
MS. PATTERSON: Yes. So the stormwater utility attempted to capture all of the impervious
area. But one of the things that threw it off in Golden Gate Estates, in some of the other areas, Logan,
Livingston, people have very long driveways. They have gravel driveways, and some of those -- there
are different opinions about whether they should be included into the impervious calculations. And so
what you had was, if you looked at the stormwater utility fee, generally, for a single-family home, you
were looking at a number that was under $100 a year if you, you know, lived in a community, but when
you got out to Golden Gate Estates, some of those numbers were $1,000, $2,000 because of these long
driveways or parking areas or other areas that were viewed as impervious.
Now, we had developed a solution for that to be able to discount out a lot of the unpaved surface,
the compacted gravel driveways, but by that time people were pretty upset, and the Board put a stop on it
and looked at different ways to fund stormwater.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Has there ever been thought of just putting it on that
homeowner to maintain that swale and saying, you know, your swale's obviously overgrown, you laid sod
where you weren't supposed to, you know, you need to correct this, instead of putting on the county's
shoulders to go in and, lot by lot, basically, correct these swales?
MS. PATTERSON: It is in the county's right-of-way, which is the first thing. And, frankly, the
folks that live in these areas do us a huge service by keeping -- generally speaking, keeping their swales
free of debris and other things and mowing them for us a lot of the time.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: My son does that.
MS. PATTERSON: Right. But it also -- remember, too, is that those swales are all integrated
with each other, and so elevations and all of that become important to make sure that the water can flow
the way that it needs to, starting at a top of a street and making its way down to its point of discharge. So
while somebody might be trying to do the right thing by maintaining their swale, it really is an integrated
system and continues to be the maintenance responsibility of the county.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Thank you.
MS. PATTERSON: You're welcome.

CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you, County Manager.
MS. PATTERSON: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Mr. Bosi, do you have some more introductory comments?
MR. BOSI: No more introductory comments. I just wanted to thank Joe for bringing up that
subject. Like I said, it brings me back a bit.
There used to be a time when the AUIR was co-piloted by myself and Ms. Patterson, as the
impact fee manager. And I always thought that I was a lot better when she was at my side. But as you
can see, there was a higher calling for her, and I'm still here.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay.
MR. BOSI: So, no. So with that, I think we could transition to transportation, if it's the
pleasure of the Board.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, what I'd like to do, if I may, is to go through section by section,
the first one being the staff report, and some of the -- some of the comments have already been made. I'll
try not to duplicate what I've heard. And in some cases, they are clarifications matters that I received in
my regular meeting with staff on Tuesday but I just want to make a public record of if anyone else had
questions about that.
So, Mr. Bosi.
MR. BOSI: Ms. Patterson just asked me if I could request -- could we have a slight abbreviation
[sic] of the order? The Sheriff's Office representative is here.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Absolutely.
MR. BOSI: After the staff report, could we maybe start off with Sheriff, and then we can go
back to the --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, we can go right to Sheriff now. I mean --
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Sure.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. Without objection, let's hear from the Sheriff right now. If
they're ready.
Good morning, sir.
MS. WILLIAMS: Good morning. For the record, I'm Sean Williams, Central Services director
for the Sheriff's Office.
Unfortunately, I'm not as well diverse -- or well versed as Mr. Bosi, but we have a couple of
topics to cover for you. I'll hit the high points on jails and law enforcement.
Our responsibility as part of your process is to give you the narrative on what our needs are. So
for Corrections, we provide you with the needs. Currently, we believe our needs for Corrections is we
need a mental health and medical facility in our Naples Jail Center, the county's Naples Jail Center. We
also need, I believe, some offices in that space.
The trend in population in jails has not been trending where it needed to be originally. We
believe that is due to several aspects. We have Chief Middlebrook and Director Bouza with us that could
speak to some of that.
But the mental health piece has become a growing trend in the jails, so we believe that's
something we need to target. That's been something we've been looking at for several years and we've
been unable to get some traction on. But as Ms. Patterson indicated, we are looking at the impact fees.
We've been working with her staff to amend -- and we -- I think once that's done, we're going to be
looking at the level of service after that, I believe, and I'd have to defer to them to speak to that.
MR. BOSI: And just for the benefit of the Planning Commission, what I put on was the jail
section does have a bed utilization rate that was provided by the Sheriff's Office, and you can see from
2020, 2021, and 2022. On average, in 2020, was 628 beds; in 2021, it was 668; and then in 2022 was
702. And, remember, the capacity for the -- for the system is at -- right at -- it's right about 13 -- 1,300
beds.
And the only improvement that we would have scheduled right now is in the sixth year, and that's
the Immokalee jail bed expansion. It's a predesigned 64-bed expansion that could be accommodated
within the Immokalee -- within the Immokalee jail system.

November 2, 2023
Page 17 of 48
CHAIRMAN FRYER: So the level-of-service standard is 2.79 beds per thousand population?
MS. WILLIAMS: That, I believe, is right.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: That's got a self-updating mechanism in it because, as the population
grows, the need for beds grows, and I imagine that in your projection going out five years, you anticipated
that the population's going to continue to grow.
MS. WILLIAMS: That was the indication, I believe, prior to my taking over this. But we have
not been trending that way for -- again, for various reasons. I think, good law enforcement practices
changing and the needs within the jail. Again, mental health has become a bigger need.
About 10 years ago, we had some changes in how we dealt with inmates. We were transferring
them to state or federal facilities, getting them out of the county, as well as some court practices that I
think Chief Middlebrook or Director Bouza could speak to if you needed them to.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. But you're showing a five-year deficit of 12 million. And so I
assume that's on the back end. You're good to go for a couple of years, but then toward the end of the
five-year period, you're going to need to find some money.
MS. WILLIAMS: I would have to defer that to Mr. Bosi.
MR. BOSI: And let me -- and that's the level-of-service standard, and that's the discrepancy.
The utilization rate is a little over half of what our capacity is.
So we have more available beds than what our -- what our needs are shown in actuality usage.
But our level-of-service standard has a demand for a much higher level of beds than what we're utilizing.
So this would be one of the areas where the Planning Commission could look at the level of service, and
if you would request of staff to say, moving forward to next year, could you do some analysis work with
the Sheriff's Office to see if there would be a potential and a comfortability with maybe reducing that
level of service to provide for a more accurate -- in terms of the overall needs toward what's available
capacity.
Now, I will say that there's always been some caution from the Sheriff's Office related to the ICE
program, and I could -- I guess I could turn it over, but I know that it's a federal program for how we
move illegals through the systems. And if that program would ever go away, I know that there will
always be a concern that could have a dramatic impact upon our beds and beds availability.
MS. WILLIAMS: That, and if populations grow again, crime trends could increase. But I don't
want to go away from the narrative that we provide that mental health and medical facility, that
renovation within our Naples Jail Center is something we need to focus on for our facility needs for our
current facilities.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Before we get back to that, County Manager, did you want to be heard
on this, ma'am?
MS. PATTERSON: Thank you, again. Amy Patterson, for the record.
Building on that conversation, remember, too, that we're in the process of working through the
design for the central receiving facility for David Lawrence. And I would suggest that this is going to
enter into this conversation about the utilization of the jail and how it interplays when we are using that
central receiving facility properly once it's constructed versus using the jail as our central receiving
facility. There are a lot of different things that -- and we've been in conversation with the Sheriff's
Office. There's a lot of different things that we need to look at in the jail in the configuration of those
spaces, how they're utilized, how those inmates are separated. So I just want you to know those are
ongoing conversations --
MS. WILLIAMS: Yes, ma'am.
MS. PATTERSON: -- working closely with the Sheriff's Office and definitely taking into
consideration that we have a level of service that may appear to provide capacity, but I think we're going
to need to evaluate these things all together so that we can really get a handle on what that need is.
And if at that time we need to have a conversation about level of service and beds per thousand
population, that may be the appropriate time. We just -- we need to -- we need to really embrace this
moving forward with the central receiving facility and then see how these intersect.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. Thank you for bringing that up. I was also going to ask

about it.
With respect to David Lawrence and St. Matthews, I'm reminded, and I know probably everyone
in this room has heard Sheriff Rambosk say, that the largest mental health facility in the county has been
the Naples Jail, which is an unfortunate reality. And it's also, I think, too soon to say that David
Lawrence and St. Matthew's are relieving some of that stress.
But can you give us an idea when in the future we might actually see some improvements in jail
population, for instance?
MS. WILLIAMS: I cannot speak to that. I have to defer to Chief Middlebrook or --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Well, if that would be appropriate, thank you.
CHIEF MIDDLEBROOK: Good morning. Chief Mark Middlebrook, Collier County Sheriff's
Office.
There's many factors that go into the number of beds available, the cost associated. For instance,
if we have a male juvenile, they have to be housed away from adults. That would take up one 32-bed
housing area. If we have a male juvenile and a female juvenile, they can't be housed together, so now we
take up two 32-bed housing areas. We have to staff that.
So we have fixed numbers as far as staffing costs. So that all has to be taken into consideration
as far as bed space. The 287(g) ICE program that we currently have here has cut our population in half.
If that went away, within 12 to 18 months, we'd be at max capacity.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Interesting.
CHIEF MIDDLEBROOK: We would not be able to house the number of people appropriately
that we would have.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. Thank you.
Any other questions either on jails or law enforcement?
MR. BOSI: And, Chair, just to remind you, from the law enforcement perspective, we do have a
program -- and this was provided from the Sheriff's Office -- the need for the forensic and evidence
facility, the District 1 substation.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah.
MR. BOSI: The training facility, as well as the District 5 substation and an Estates substation,
we are identifying those, and the one that we do have coming online in the first five years is the forensic
science facility, the District 1 substation, and the District 5 substation. So they're -- we're trying to get to
those individual areas of need, but we know that there is -- there is an allocation of revenue that constrains
us from attacking that a little bit more aggressively. But we do know, and we're working with the
Sheriff's Office to see if we can accelerate any of these projects.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. And I just -- it was clarified for me in our meeting on
Tuesday that in furtherance of streamlining and reducing the number of words contained in this report,
some things were removed without that to be indicating that the projects were removed or downscaled.
And so that forensic evidence building, in last year's staff report, was referred to as a $33 million
exercise, and I assume that it's still -- and it hasn't been cut back any.
MR. BOSI: No, it has actually been expanded. It was 90,000-square-foot facility, as we were
proposing last year. It's been increased to 114,000. So that has -- that's the relationship to the overall
cost, but the size has increased as well.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. Vice Chairman.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yeah. I just want to make sure we understand, and for the
Sheriff's Office, our concern as the zoning board is to make sure that when we approve a project --
MS. WILLIAMS: Yes, sir.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: -- that it doesn't put a burden on you and exceed the
level-of-service capability, and that's our greatest concern.
MS. WILLIAMS: Thank you.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: All other data is extremely interesting, but our concern is that
we don't want to approve something that then all of a sudden puts you in a bind because you can no
longer meet the level-of-service requirements.

Page 19 of 48
And every time we review a staff report, every one of these issues is covered in regards to level of
service. But from that standpoint, I look at this as we are maintaining the level of service that's adequate.
Your needs, of course, for funding are issues that go to -- of course, to the Sheriff and to the discussions
with the Board of County Commissioners as far as funding.
MS. WILLIAMS: Correct. We've been working with Manager Patterson over the last year and
having some great conversations about some of these projects, so that is moving forward in a positive
way.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: But I think the standpoint of our concern, the District 1
substation, as growth moves where it is now and that -- especially as it goes east, that the capabilities are
there. The funding issue, we can stress from the standpoint of zoning.
MS. WILLIAMS: Sure.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: But to make sure the level of service is there to provide what's
needed for the community as it moves eastward now where it's going to go in this county, and that's down
41 and east.
MS. WILLIAMS: Yeah.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Okay. Thanks.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
Let's see. Commissioner Schumacher.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Just a question for Sheriff's Office.
MS. WILLIAMS: Yes, sir.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: So on your staffing side, are you having -- with the
number of beds decreasing per that report, staffing is acceptable within the jail, or are you finding a
shortfall there, even with less beds being occupied?
CHIEF MIDDLEBROOK: Chief Middlebrook again.
We are sufficiently staffed. We have a robust HR program, recruitment, retention. Through the
efforts of the manager and the commissioners, we are well funded. So we aren't having a staffing issue
at all.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: And that kind of leads into this: So also with your road
deputies, you're not having a staffing issue, especially with the growth we're kind of seeing out in that
Golden Gate Estates. Would that be, like, District 2, I believe, or --
CHIEF MIDDLEBROOK: We are more than capable of handling the calls for service with our
current staffing levels. It's always -- it's always an effort to continue to recruit quality individuals to
come work for us.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: No. I know the deputies in my district are great, because
I talk to them a lot when I see them at the 7-Eleven, but --
CHIEF MIDDLEBROOK: Always good to hear.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: -- in your other districts, you're not seeing any type of
shortfall? Is there any other needed substations outside of the ones that were identified that you're
looking at saying, this would a good area, given this growth, to have --
CHIEF MIDDLEBROOK: There are discussions about substations or sub substations as we go
east. We continuously -- and this happens monthly -- review our calls for service, where the need is and
what our staffing quantities are in those areas.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Perfect. Thank you, Chief.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
Commissioner Shea.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: So I guess, in summary, what I'm hearing is, we shouldn't be worried
about the deficit right now. There's a lot of moving parts that -- trying to attack that, and we shouldn't be
worried about it at this level this year?
MR. BOSI: I would agree with that assessment, and I think the Sheriff's Office does a great job
of, you know, reducing that jail population. As I showed by that individual chart, it has steadily
declined.

But through coordination and conversation with all the different moving parts and the individuals,
the factors -- so we will bring -- we'll bring that to a head and have future discussions with you. But the
capacity is there for the next 12 -- the next 12 months before you see the 2024 AUIR.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Vice Chairman Schmitt?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yeah. Since I've got the microphone, I want to publicly thank
the Sheriff's Office, because I just returned from Los Angeles yesterday. I was out there. What a
disaster. I mean, homeless areas, abandoned -- well, they're not abandoned, but campers on the side of
the road where people are living.
The people in this county will give you everything you need to prevent that from happening here.
And if it -- if you don't get that, I would hope that you're standing on the desk of the County Manager,
Amy, and the commissioners because, it's just -- it was just a disaster.
MS. WILLIAMS: Thank you. And the Sheriff's Office focuses on the community.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: The tents and other things. And once that starts, it just --
MS. WILLIAMS: Yeah.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: It's like a feeding frenzy. It's just camp after camp after camp.
And, anyways, it was not fun out there.
So thank you for making sure that doesn't happen here, and that's what the citizens want --
MS. WILLIAMS: Yes, sir.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: -- that it doesn't happen here.
MS. WILLIAMS: Thank you. And the Sheriff thank you as well.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
Let's see. No one signaling at this time, so I'm going to ask a question. Now over on law
enforcement facilities.
MS. WILLIAMS: Yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: The LOSS is, excuse me, 0.9089 per capita, and that's square feet. Just,
if you wouldn't mind telling me how that was calculated.
MS. WILLIAMS: I'd have to defer to Mr. Bosi on that, sir.
MR. BOSI: That is a level-of-service standard that we've had some modifications to in the past
over the past four to five years. It was -- used to be officers per thousand. We've tied it now to officers,
you know, per square foot, because what we provide for the Sheriff's Office is building and building
capacity. So it's a more direct tie to the capital improvement programs that you are seeing. So that's
been a -- that's been an evolving level-of-service standard. I think we've arrived upon the
level-of-service square foot per capita for the last four years and that we think it serves it well, because it's
directly tied to the capital that's associated with the programs that are contained within the AUIR.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. The Sheriff's Office has a facility in the 2300 block of
Horseshoe.
MS. WILLIAMS: Yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: And this is --
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: There's a forensic lab there.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. This facility, according to the material that I'm reading, has
become a very dated and cramped facility. So I can see why you need a new facility for that. My
question is, is, what's going to happen to that Horseshoe facility?
MS. WILLIAMS: That's -- I would have to defer to the county's side on that, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay.
MR. BOSI: And -- I was going to say, that's a facility management question, and I was looking
back to see if Ed Finn or John McCormick -- I'm not sure if there's been -- I'm not sure what the level of
discussion that's been --
MS. PATTERSON: The conversations are still ongoing about the use of that property once we
have the forensic building completed and are able to relocate the Sheriff's operations. Potentially
remaining in the county's inventory for relocation of staff out of the other leased space. The building
does need some renovations; however, it's a good location close to both our transportation and our
5.A.a

community development campuses, and they are often space challenged. I do have a whole section in
leased space right around the corner where we call West Horseshoe, stormwater, transportation planning,
coastal zone are all there as well. So we'll look to potentially re-home somebody into that building as a
county asset.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Sounds good. Thank you.
I don't think I have -- oh, here's a question.
The Collier County Sheriff's Office patrol district boundaries, I don't see District 7. Is there a
District 7?
MS. WILLIAMS: Not any longer, sir. District 7 became District 5 when we kind of
restructured --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh.
MS. WILLIAMS: -- District 3, and District 5 now moved further west, and that district lives in a
leased space, so that's why it's on the AUIR for future county-owned space.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. What about District 6?
MS. WILLIAMS: Oh, that used to be Marco years ago.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, okay.
MS. WILLIAMS: That no longer exists.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Now they police themselves?
MS. WILLIAMS: Yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Got it. Okay. Thank you.
That's all I have for law enforcement or jails. Does anyone else have anything for the Sheriff's
Office?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: If not, thank you very much, sir, for being here.
MS. WILLIAMS: Thank you for your time. Thank you, everyone.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Shall we loop back now to staff report? I think most of my questions
have already been answered, and the records that I want to make have been made. Let me just be sure.
The numbers in the staff report show that there's more construction going on despite the slower
rate of increase in growth. And as Mr. Bosi and his colleague explained to me on Tuesday, this is not
being built for the present, but it is in anticipation of an inevitable increase in growth. So we're just
trying to keep up with things.
MR. BOSI: And as we discussed, what Commissioner Fryer was referring to is the
average -- the 28,000 people we expected over the five years, but the population increase we have from a
year-to-year basis is about -- you know, about 5,800 people. That would translate to about 3,000
individual dwelling units needed to -- assuming that they all moved into a new dwelling unit.
But the amount of COs that have been issued for multifamily and single-family dwelling units
exceeds that number, so there's a surplus being provided for. That's a positive thing. As we've
described on almost every one of our petitions that have affordable housing, there's a tremendous
imbalance between demand and supply, and that's a response from the private development community.
So the more units that we can put out of the -- we can grow out of the ground, make available,
can have a positive effect upon that supply and demand imbalance and has, hopefully, a positive effect
upon, you know, the prices that could be commanded from a rental standpoint and the overall cost of
homeownership.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
My next question has to do with schools. And this, I think, was another example of
streamlining; some language was taken out from the previous year. But I just wanted to make a record of
it in case anyone else noticed it.
But there was a reference last year to quote, as well as a future school addition in Fiscal Year
'25/'26. That was deleted. But it's my understanding that the project wasn't deleted. It's just -- it's no
longer in the narrative, but that's still going forward.

MS. LOCKHART: We have actually two schools in our five-year plan, two elementary schools.
We had an addition at Immokalee High School, and we also had plans for an addition at Palmetto Ridge
High School.
That will bring us to meeting our level of service within the next five years, so we're good.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you very much.
I don't have anything further on the staff report. I'm ready to go to roads and bridges unless
someone else -- if not, let's turn to roads and bridges.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Do we want to take our break now before we --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, good idea. Thank you, Vice Chairman.
We will be in recess for 10 minutes until 10:34, please.
(A brief recess was had from 10:24 a.m. to 10:34 a.m.)
MR. BOSI: Chair, you have a live mic.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you, Mr. Bosi.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: I'm here.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Noted.
Commissioner Schumacher, I noticed some kind of flashing on your device.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: It's my dummy light on my phone when it rings. It
flashing.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, okay. That's what it was. All right. I was hoping that it wasn't a
timer that connected to something that might hurt me.
Okay. Thank you.
All right. Roads and bridges. Did you want to say anything further on this, or we can go right
to -- oh, would you --
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Lorraine is here.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. May we hear from you? Do you want to say anything?
MS. LANTZ: Sure. I do have a presentation if you'd like it, or if you wanted to ask questions.
I did recognize --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Tell us your name, and then --
MS. LANTZ: Oh, I apologize. Lorraine Lantz, Transportation Planning. Transportation
Planning manager.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Why don't we start with, like, hitting the very highest points, and then
we'll see if we can flesh out any questions rather than going through the whole presentation; is that
possible?
MS. LANTZ: Sure.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: That would be great. Please do that.
MS. LANTZ: Okay. So the high points -- and I will just -- I'll skip through and just show you
some of the high points of our plan, because I did receive some questions regarding some of the projects
that we are specifically working on.
Our level-of-service requirements are D or E for our roads. We are currently moving towards
projects to alleviate those deficiencies. Some of the -- or some of the deficiencies as you noticed in some
of our attachments are in the eastern area of Collier County.
And so to alleviate that, we have several bridge projects that are moving forward. These were
funded through surtax referendum, and there are five moving forward. They are all working on their
own design and project specifics. But they're from Wilson Boulevard South, 10th Avenue Southeast,
67th -- or 62nd, 13th, and 47th.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Could you say a word about how the bridges will help us in relation to
getting over canals?
MS. LANTZ: So these bridges were a part of a 2008 study for the east of Collier County -- East
of Collier Boulevard Horizon Study to look at efficiencies and interconnections for the area, for fire,
EMS, first responders. And these were the recommended projects that moved forward. So these are not
to connect cul-de-sacs. These are to connect roads over canals for additional access so that someone

who's there is not trapped by only getting into their homes one way. They can have a different -- an
additional option.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. I will -- and no one's signaling, so I'm going to make a
comment or two here, if I can.
I think -- I think this county does as much as it possibly can to facilitate the improvement of roads
and villages [sic] given the obvious financial limitations that we have and also given the various laws that
get changed in Tallahassee, which complicates it somewhat, in particularly how we look at deficiencies
and what we can do, when we can do it, and what we can't do when deficiencies are on the horizon.
And in those terms, our level-of-service standard, as was mentioned, is either D or E, pretty
much, and that's a pretty low bar, which is unfortunate. But given our financing and the other constraints
that I mentioned, it's really the best we can do.
At some point in the future, maybe we need to strive for somehow doing more or doing better, but
it's going to take more money, and that's where the rubber meets the road.
Also, I notice the work program for '24-'28 is 742 -- 742 million and some change. Last year it
was 538-. So, I mean, again, that's -- that's trending well for us. Unfortunately, on the backside, it
makes it more, you know, challenging for us to say, well, now where is this extra money coming from?
But I'm glad that at least we're planning to spend more on our roads and bridges because, indeed, that's
going to be necessary.
And as I mentioned earlier, when we make our recommendation, and assuming it's to approve,
I'm hopeful that we can add a tagline to our vote that indicates the importance of forward planning
because, while in the near-term years we're going to do okay, when you get out to years 4 and 5 and then
beyond, if you look at the 10-year, it's going to get to be a real challenge, and it takes some serious
forward planning now so that we're not surprised and caught back on our heels.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Mr. Chairman?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yes. Go ahead, Mr. Klucik.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Just when there's a chance, I'd like to ask some questions.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: This would be a good time, sir.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Okay. So if you could help me out, just to -- Packet Page 16 and
Packet Page 141, are those the same? It's 9A1B and 9A1C. I think they're the same chart. It's the
'24-'28 plan. Is there any difference between them? I'm just asking because I don't want to miss
something.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Let's get staff to respond to that.
MR. BOSI: Yes. Mike Bosi, Planning and Zoning director. Yes, they are the -- earlier in the
report is from the Transportation section. That's their program of five-year improvements, and then on
the back side is the CIE submittal, which is a mimic of those plan -- five-year projects within the five-year
plan, but they are codified within the CIE proposal amendment, which is the first five years, which is
associated with the Exhibit A of the CIE. So, yes, they are.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Okay. And then how does that relate to Page 41, which is
Attachment D, the work program? It seems like it's virtually the same thing but shown a different way as
far as the work that's planned.
MR. BOSI: They are. They are. D is a little more -- a little more specificity in terms of the
work plan as to some of the underlying components of why they're being proposed, but they're essentially
the same projects.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Okay.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: And then can you explain for me what A versus C is in the
schedule notes where the -- it's the -- and, particularly, I'm looking at 60144, which is the widening of Oil
Well between Everglades and Oil Well Grade Road. And I'm just trying to understand the distinction.
There's -- so what does the A on that line stand for?
MS. LANTZ: Sorry. I wasn't --

Page 24 of 48
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Line 60144, 60144, it's Oil Well being widened from between
Everglades and Oil Well Grade Road.
MS. LANTZ: So we have -- the A in our -- oh, sorry. Lorraine Lantz, Transportation Planning.
The A is an annotated advanced construction. So this is where we put money aside where we
know the construction is coming, and we save money for that project in advance.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Okay. So -- great, great. Okay. That's what I was hoping.
And then C is the --
MS. LANTZ: For actual construction.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Construction.
Okay. So the 4,900 -- 4.9 million, I guess, is getting -- doing -- spending the money to get ready
to do what you're going to do in Fiscal Year '27? Is that -- or are you actually doing improvements in
that 4.9 million?
MS. LANTZ: The 4.9 is for the advanced construction, so it's putting it into the savings account.
In Fiscal Year '27, it's to start construction, so that's the beginning of the procurement phase and to start
the construction.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Okay. So there's $4.9 million in expenditures and getting ready
in 2024 for what you're going to do in 2027, or putting the money aside?
MS. LANTZ: It's to put the money aside to basically hold it so that we have the money in place
when we want to move forward with the construction.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Got it.
Okay. And then if I can go to -- gosh, it's -- Attachment C shows the -- it's in red. It shows the
traffic volumes for 2022. Is that -- is that -- that's showing the increases or decreases in traffic for
Calendar Year 2022, Packet Page 40?
MS. LANTZ: Yes. So the Attachment C is to show the increases. The increases are in red.
The decreases are in green, and then those that are basic -- stayed relatively the same are in black. So the
wider or the thicker the line, the more of an increase.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Okay. And what would you attribute -- so on Randall
Road -- Randall Boulevard you've got 20 percent decrease between Everglades and DeSoto. What -- you
know, are you -- you know, can you opine as to what it is that caused that decrease?
MS. LANTZ: So it's year over year, so we're looking at the same times that we took traffic
counts for the prior AUIR. This particular segment, there could have been additional -- people are
distributing. They're moving forward with other areas or other access points, maybe using Oil Well,
maybe going out Oil Well to 29. That seemed to have increased.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: And some of that might have been -- am I right, some of that
could have been because there was some congestion there because the improvements were causing traffic
to go in a different direction? Is that sometimes what could cause a decrease in traffic?
MS. LANTZ: Yes. So obviously people look at what works best for them, and they may find a
more efficient way to get to their destination.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Great. And then one last question -- I really appreciate you
indulging me. These are very particularized questions to the community that always asks me a ton of
questions out in Ave Maria.
So then I look at Attachment H1 at -- I'm not sure what packet page that is. I think it might be
Packet Page 50. I'm not sure. But it's another map, and it has orange and black and yellow lines. Do
you know which one I'm talking about? Attachment H1, projected Collier County deficiency roads.
MS. LANTZ: Yes, I have it.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Okay. So on that, if you can help me, so the black -- if you're
looking at the legend, does it go from biggest concern down to lower concern as you go black, red,
orange, yellow?
MS. LANTZ: Yes. So the black tends to be the projects that were deficient in prior years, and
they're remaining deficient. So we are -- and then those are the ones in which we are actively working
towards our program to alleviate that deficiency.

COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Okay. And so what I highlighted earlier with that one budget
line item for Oil Well between Everglades and DeSoto, that project is part of that black line that goes Oil
Well, Everglades, Vanderbilt. That's all a capacity enhancement project kind of together is designed to
take the burden off the -- those -- the congestion there? That's what that one big black line is? It's all
the improvements that are slated that are already in the pipeline and they're on our chart; is that correct?
MS. LANTZ: Yes. Those projects on Oil Well are moving forward through our work program.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Okay. And has anything changed? It seems like those have
already been in the pipeline. Has that pretty much remained, you know, the same plan that they've had
for the last couple years?
MS. LANTZ: So the Oil Well Road project, specifically in that area, was a component of the
Ave Maria development. And as soon as certain -- they had to pay impact fees. And as those impact
fees were collected, we were moving forward with the design -- well, with analysis, design, and
construction. We're still collecting those impact fees. They're not at -- I believe they had to be at a
$20 million mark before we would start construction. We are now anticipating when they will reach that
$20 million mark, and that's why we're moving forward with programming the construction of that
project.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Okay. And when you say '27, are we talking the beginning of
'27 or the end of '27, or you don't really know?
MS. LANTZ: So our fiscal year starts in October, so that's what this is demonstrating, the fiscal
year. The actual project might not start at the beginning of the fiscal year, but we're anticipating it to
start during that fiscal year.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Right, which means -- and the fiscal year would end in September
of '27. So by the end of '27, we certainly should all be seeing the progress there starting?
MS. LANTZ: You might not see a bulldozer on the road. There might be more internal where
we have to hire the consultant, make sure the contracts are in order. But, yes, that's the intent is for it to
anticipate start.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Okay. Thank you so much.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you, Commissioner.
Anybody have anything further on roads and bridges?
COMMISSIONER SHEA: I have.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Go right ahead.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Trinity did a presentation last night that -- I thought was very helpful
in terms of some of the -- like, 75 intersections, the plans for the flyovers, the diverging diamonds. It
was pretty brief. But this is so high level. I don't know if the average one of us can put our -- really
understand it. I don't know, is that part of the presentation you had similar to what she did last night?
MS. LANTZ: I don't know specifically what she presented last night. I did have a presentation
of the projects that we were moving forward with.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Because you're not talking about the state-funded projects, which are
some of our more difficult areas, like the intersections of Immokalee and 75, Pine Ridge and 75, and
there's some big plans in those areas in the next five years, and I'm guessing we don't see them in here
because they're not our projects; they're the state's. But they're hugely impactful to our transportation.
MS. LANTZ: So the correct answer is those are the FDOT projects. A lot were the Moving
Florida Forward projects that I believe she may have presented. I did not include those in my
presentation. But Moving Florida Forward did fund I-75 at Pine Ridge as a diverging diamond
interchange. They also funded State Road 29 out in the Immokalee area for 29 to 82, as well as the New
Market Road, what was originally called the Loop Road. That -- those two segments. That was Moving
Florida Forward.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Okay.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. Commissioner Schumacher.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Good morning. A couple questions. So looking at
Attachment H1, when we look at Vanderbilt, especially from Logan to Airport-Pulling, those -- remaining
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 29 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023
Page 26 of 48
capacity is 226 from Airport to Livingston, and then 204 from Livingston to Logan. Those obviously did
not take into account the Ascend Naples project which had a trip count of an additional 100 cars or 106
cars, I believe. So that would obviously reduce the capacity on those numbers there, correct?
MS. LANTZ: So our AUIR takes the numbers into account that are the -- we take traffic counts,
specific traffic counts at four points a year, as well as anything that's come in for a Site Development Plan
and that has been banked, those trips. I'm sorry. Attachment H is now on your screen. Sorry about
that.
So those -- that's what's taken into consideration. If they have come in for their site -- their
zoning and approvals but have not come in with a Site Development Plan, those trips are at trip cap, and
they have a development order where they can move forward to a Site Development Plan and
development review, but we do not necessarily show those as a -- as a banked trip on the system until
they come in for an approved Site Development Plan.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Thank you.
The Oil Well connection to Vanderbilt, are those -- does that include -- does the trip cap include
that expansion as well, or is that something that isn't taken into account until the road's actually
completed?
MS. LANTZ: So the -- I'm not sure I understand your question exactly.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Like, you have 204 remaining for capacity for Livingston
to Logan on Vanderbilt. Does that include the completion of the Oil Well connection to Vanderbilt? Is
that traffic counted in the capacity?
MS. LANTZ: So the traffic count is the actual counts. So what's out there today, not
Vanderbilt Beach Road extension that we anticipate is coming in.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Okay.
MS. LANTZ: And what that traffic would be anticipated, we don't --
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: You don't know until you do a count after it's done.
MS. LANTZ: Correct. It's actuals.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: All right. On each one where these areas are -- an
enhancement project is scheduled, how do you do a capacity expansion on that?
MS. LANTZ: So some projects are -- we're widening the road. So some facilities are being
widened. Some facilities are -- it might be easier if I go through, but which --
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Like, for example, that -- obviously, the Oil Well is in
black to Vanderbilt, the Vanderbilt Road extension, so that's obviously under schedule.
If you look at existing deficiencies that I had kind of talked about from that Airport to Logan, if
you've projected a deficiency -- I'm sorry; correct myself. How would you expand that road that's
already built out?
It's obvious that we're approaching capacity on that road if you take into account the Ascend that's
already been complete is now going to go in for a Site Development Plan shortly, and there's another
apartment complex that's going to push another 100 vehicles per their traffic count onto that road. So
we're now above capacity, I guess, with those communities with the 200 -- 226 remaining.
MS. LANTZ: So what we're going to -- we are -- in that specific area, I believe you're in a
TCMA or TCEA area so that we understand that they may go over capacity, and there's additional
activities that we can do, we're going to recommend. We acknowledge the deficiency, and we will
continue to monitor and assess it; however, we would look for other strategies of transportation demand
management such as carpooling, using the bus transit.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Because there is no bus transit on that road now, correct?
MS. LANTZ: Correct.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Vanderbilt. Okay.
That's all I have. Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
No one else is signaling.
I've got just a couple of questions. No, disregard that; I don't. I have questions coming up in

stormwater.
Anything further on roads and bridges?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: If not, then we will turn to stormwater. Are there questions remaining
on this? We've already talked about it a little bit, but -- I think I'll start off with a question. I looked at
the Attachment C of the 2022 AUIR, and it referenced a Table 2, which was captioned "current canal
system inventory," and that table is not included in the 2023 AUIR. So my question is: Why not?
MR. ROMAN: For the record, Dan Roman, stormwater project manager, supervisor.
The one that you are referring to is the major structures.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: It was called "current canal system inventory," Table 2, and so that's not
a part of the 2023 AUIR.
MR. ROMAN: So this is the current system inventory for the major stormwater that we have.
Maybe it was mislabeled, and probably this is the one that previously was referred to when the question
was who maintains it "by others."
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay.
MR. ROMAN: So the majority of -- when it says "by others" is FDOT, Alligator Alley, 41, and
private stormwater systems.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. So the material that was in Table 2 is now reflected in a different
image, and that was part of our material, I take it?
MR. ROMAN: (Nods head.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. What about -- same question with respect to Table 4, and that
was -- last year was labeled "current control structure inventory," and that table is also gone.
MR. ROMAN: This is Figure 2.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Say again.
MR. ROMAN: It's Figure 2, stormwater control structures.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, it's called Figure 2 rather than Table 4.
MR. ROMAN: (Nods head.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. All right. Thank you.
Then the recommended revenues for '24 through '28 are 37 million, 637. Now, that number was
84 million last year. Could you -- could you comment on why the reduction?
MR. ROMAN: Some projects move further away, and given that stormwater is not an enterprise
fund, we have to just basically plan with a budget that it's given to us from the General Fund.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Anyone else have comments on this section, stormwater? If
not, it would seem that we are concluded with that.
Oh, go ahead, Vice Chairman.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Are you responsible or can you give me a status, what's going
on with the project that was started several years ago for the restoring of the Belle Meade flowway?
There were monies that the county received. I think it was part of the settlement in the gulf for the oil
spill, and there was some -- there was a project for restoration of flow through the Belle Meade and then
down.
MR. ROMAN: Yeah, it's called the Restore project.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yeah.
MR. ROMAN: So the county was moving forward with a selection committee to award that
design, but now we're just reevaluating the scope as there has been a lot of development in that area. We
just need to go back to the study and reevaluate the scope to make sure that what we're proposing, it's in
accordance with the current development in that area.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Okay. And then there was -- there's work that's already being
done by South Florida Water Management District over restoration of the flowways, and that's going out
the East Trail. There was additional pipes and other activity being sponsored, of course, by the Water
Management District. I would hope that's being integrated with your plans and the work that's being
done in that part of the county.

MR. ROMAN: The Picayune project that they have, it's not part of the restore.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yeah, I understand that. But it is still some work that the
district is doing.
MR. ROMAN: Yes, sir.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: That --
MR. ROMAN: But what I'm referring to is the water that we're planning on capturing --
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yeah.
MR. ROMAN: -- is not going to be basically the -- on the area of the Picayune Strand because
they have certain capacity. They have some habitats there that are sensitive. So we are not planning
on -- the water that's going to go from -- go down from Restore is not going to be part of that Picayune.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Okay. I mean, I just look at that as another source of revenue
that's still available to the county. I don't know, Amy, were you going to talk about that? I saw you get
up. Captured you again.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Stay close.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: You're not going back to the office.
MS. PATTERSON: Amy Patterson, again, for the record.
No, I was just going to provide you clarification on last year's revenue why that number was
higher. It still contained a debt component, so that was that remnant of the $60 million that the Board
provided in debt funding, how we were continuing to spend that down. It will be gone for this year. So
that number came down because of it -- not because of the Board allocating less dollars, but rather that
piece now being spent all the way.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you very much.
MS. PATTERSON: You're welcome.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Anything further on stormwater?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: If not, potable water is the subject. And no one is signaling. I don't
think I have any questions or comments.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: I have one.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Do you?
COMMISSIONER SHEA: They're not going to do a presentation?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, if you want them to.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: No, I don't.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Actually, I do have a question or two here.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: My only concern is the level of service again.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. Well -- and that's pervasive. That goes through all this stuff.
Yes, sir.
MR. STOLTZ: Anthony Stoltz, Collier County Public Utilities Planning.
The 2023 potable water and wastewater AUIR demonstrates that Collier County Water/Sewer
District is in compliance with the concurrency requirements found in Florida Statutes, Section 163, the
Collier County Comprehensive Plan and the Land Development Code, and we are here to answer any
questions you may have.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Go ahead, Commissioner Shea.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: So it looks like a lot of your projections are all population based, so
the treatment process is still population based. But there's a lot of changes coming out, like the PFASs
and things like that. Do you envision having to do any upgrade in quality that won't really increase the
capacity of the facility, but it will increase the level of treatment? I didn't see any of that in there. And I
guess my question is, do we have PFASs in our water? And it would be the same question for
wastewater since they go together.
MR. McLEAN: Yeah, very good question.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: And the sludge that comes out of the treatment plant, so...
MR. McLEAN: Matt McLean, division director for Engineering and Project Management.

PFAS and other chemicals are definitely hot on the topic list around within the overall industry.
Currently, right now, our water systems are clean. We don't have any issues relative to that.
We are looking, as we do our plant expansions, to go into membrane treatment processes at the
wastewater plants, which will position us to be able to handle future PFAS regulations as they may come
down the pipeline for us. So we're positioning ourselves to be prepared for that. Currently, it is not
under our regulation, but it's under study to add regulations soon.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: There will be regulations, but most of our water is groundwater,
which shouldn't have PFASs in it.
MR. McLEAN: That's correct.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: So you don't have any concern with any upcoming regulations, and
our level of treatment will stay probably -- you're projecting it will be similar, but you just need additional
capacity as the population grows?
MR. McLEAN: Treatment processes will definitely continue to change with those types of
additional regulations as they come forward. That's why we are moving towards more of a membrane
treatment process on the wastewater side as we do future expansion projects.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Are we finding more brackish water and saltwater intrusion so that
we might have to upgrade our water plants to handle the salt?
MR. McLEAN: Very interesting. Within our potable water systems, we utilize multiple
different aquifer sources, freshwater sources, Tamiami aquifers, as well as brackish water sources with
the Upper and Lower Hawthorn.
So right now, today, we are actively utilizing brackish water within our potable treatment
processes. We currently continue to be regulated by the Water Management District when it comes to
water use permitting, and additional wells, as they come online, will continue to be a mix and blend of
both freshwater and brackish water sources.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: And long range, we're not -- we see enough capacity in the
aquifers -- I know we're going to add some wells, but we see enough capacity in the aquifers, not just in
our ability to pull the water out?
MR. McLEAN: We do.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: I have a question with respect to the table. Again, comparing last year's
report to this year's. This is the eight-column table; it's on Page 56 of what I'm using. And Column 1 is
labeled "Fiscal Year" and Column 8 is labeled "Percent of Total Permitted Capacity." Last year, it went
from 2018 to 2032, and the peak last year was in 2027, where we hit 77 percent. Then in this year, the
peak has moved to 2032 where we're going to hit 87 percent, but then we're going to come way down the
following year to 75 percent. Could you comment on that?
MR. McLEAN: Yes. When it goes back down -- I think you're on Packet Page 79.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Could be.
MR. McLEAN: The continued increases relevant to that are reflective of when we have plant
expansion. So as plant expansions come online, then we have a larger percentage of total permitted
capacity there. I believe that's the table that you're on.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. So it's a just timing of --
MR. McLEAN: Timing of plant expansions and when they come online.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you.
Excuse me, how does the county assess the presence and adequacy of untapped aquifers? I
mean, is that a science? Divining rod perhaps or --
MR. McLEAN: It is. It's a science, and we have experts in the -- in the industry that we hire as
consultants to continue to work through the geotechnical aquifer availability of water sources, and it's
highly regulated by the Water Management District through water use permitting.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you.
And I'm ready to move on to wastewater.
Anyone else have anything on potable water?

(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: If not, wastewater. Let's say what I have here. This may be a County
Manager question. It first comes to my attention here, but it is in other materials. I simply had not
observed in previous years how much debt we had, either bonded indebtedness, commercial paper, and
the like. Not that there's anything wrong with that. It's just that I hadn't -- I wasn't aware of what a
significant part of our budget that played. I would like for someone to comment on the prospects of
continued reliance on debit, particularly as interest rates are going up.
MR. BELLONE: For the record, Joe Bellone. I'm the utilities finance director.
We, as an enterprise fund, have two very limited income sources. They're either user fees or
impact fees.
We do have some existing user fee debt service covered by user fee rates, and we've got some
leftover expansion, which are covered by impact fees. We do those rate studies regularly every three
years because we're responsible for ensuring that we have adequate funding to do that.
We are going to rely on additional debt for these expansions that are in the program. Timing of
those, again, will depend on the demand but we, as a utility, don't walk alone. We usually work together
very closely with the Finance Committee, the county's financial advisors, to develop debt strategies for
the utility to ensure that we get the best rates that we can.
We are AAA rated, so that does ensure that we have -- we are borrowing at the lowest rates
possible. General Fund is as well, but the utility is AAA rated.
So, yes, we will rely on that, and we will look at -- we will rely on all of our financial
professionals within the county and externally that we use to assemble the best packages that we can.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: There's nothing at all wrong with using debt to finance operations. In
fact, it's very wise, particularly when rates are low. I guess my question, I'm hopeful that now rates are
rising and, again, with our very high credit rating, do we have some nice rates locked in?
MR. BELLONE: We have refunded several of our previous bonds. And, again, thanks to the
support from the Finance Committee and our external county's financial consultants, we have refinanced
several bonds at more favorable rates. We continue to review those constantly to ensure that we're
not -- we're not paying more than we need to be paying.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay.
MR. BELLONE: Sure.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
MR. BELLONE: Sure.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Let's see. Anyone else have any questions on wastewater before we
move to solid waste? If not, solid waste it is. And I was interested to learn about how solid waste
disposition can now occur in ways to take it above ground level to form berms or hills in this otherwise
flat part of the world.
But maybe a word or two about the aesthetics of that would be -- because it sounds like it's a
great way to increase our capacity, and our capacity is well within what we would want. But are we
going to see more hills and berms and --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Same ones, just higher.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: The same ones, just higher? Could you say a word or two about that?
MS. HODGSON: Good morning, Commissioners. For the record, Kari Hodgson, your director
for Solid Waste.
As Mike has alluded to, with the success of county planning, that being able to expand your
existing assets and infrastructure to maximum the benefits to the county residents, the landfill is a great
example where, in 2011, the permitted elevation of the landfill was around 108 elevation above ground,
and the Board of County Commissioners approved the landfill to apply for a permit to raise that elevation
which is, in turn, what gave it an additional 20, 30 years of capacity.
Landfills are a very sophisticated engineered design like any other utility and has liner systems in
place as well as 4-1 slopes that are then maintained with grass, so they look like hills, essentially, with
benches on them for stormwater control. They have all the assets that must be controlled with any other

type of building construction.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Are any of them designed to be, like, plateaus where you could -- you
could build improvements on top of them?
MS. HODGSON: Absolutely. There are a few landfills in Florida specifically that have assets
that have been built on top of them. More recently, Orange County is looking to put a surfing facility on
top of an old landfill.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Just -- we built a golf course on West Palm on top of the landfill.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Interesting. Okay. Anybody else have questions on the subject of
solid waste?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, we're moving right along, everyone.
MS. HODGSON: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you very much.
The next subject is Collier Schools Capital Improvement Element. I must admit, I don't dig as
deeply into this as I do the other because, I mean, well, we've got Amy here. And as the expert, and
I -- and I'm confident that if we're short-changing the school in any way, that she would -- she'd let us
know immediately; is that fair, Ms. Lockhart?
MS. LOCKHART: That's fair, and it's covered in the packet, our capital improvements that we
plan on putting in place in the next five years. As I had said before, two elementary schools are within
our five-year plan, and across the district we meet our level of service at each of our schools.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
Vice Chairman Schmitt.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yeah. I just want to point out, oftentimes we have the public
come in. If it's not the environment that they talk about, it's the impact on schools. I trust that the
county -- the school board, which, of course, is a separate constitutional entity, and I commend the school
board, as they always had done in past years, the county staff, coordinating with the school board staff, to
ensure that the capacity was there. And if it wasn't there, we, again, need to know that from a voting
standpoint that we don't approve projects that exceed the capacity. And I think we're -- we're well on
track for making sure that there's desks available.
Now, with that said, do you also impact -- or do you also analyze the charter schools and all the
other types of programs that are taking place as well? Because, again, that's -- usually the mantra we
hear is the impact in schools and overloading of the schools, but it's not happening?
MS. LOCKHART: It's not happening. There are a few schools -- and that's why we're going to
be building new elementary schools -- that have some overcrowding issues, namely the Estates and Laurel
Oak Elementary School. Corkscrew Elementary is also getting close. So we monitor all of that.
The charter schools, to answer your question, we do not -- have not expended capital funds on
charter schools.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Correct.
MS. LOCKHART: That is not part of the capital plan. There is a flow-through now of capital
dollars that's available now to charter schools, but that just flows through the district to the charter schools
themselves.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Okay. But you do monitor schools --
MS. LOCKHART: We do monitor -- we do monitor their enrollment.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Population, enrollment.
MS. LOCKHART: Yes, we do.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Okay. Good. Thanks.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Are we ready to move on to Parks and Recreation? It seems like we
are.
MS. EDWARDS: Good morning, Olema Edwards, Parks and Recreation director.
With our AUIR, the most notable changes that we have is that we're going to have a deficit in our
community parkland resources by Fiscal Year 5. To correct this issue, we are currently in negotiations
5.A.a

with the Williams Farm property to try to acquire land. We are good for our regional parkland
acquisition. We're fine. We don't have any deficits, but I'm here to answer any other questions that you
may have.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. You've got a surplus, right?
MS. EDWARDS: Yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, that's a nice position to be in, I must say.
MS. EDWARDS: Only for regional parks right now.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, yeah.
MS. EDWARDS: Yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Go ahead, Vice Chair.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: The Golden Gate Golf Course, will that now fall under Parks
and Rec? Will that be managed -- I don't mean daily operations, but will that become a public facility?
Is that the plan for that?
MS. EDWARDS: Currently, they have -- currently, there are different uses for the golf course.
We're using it right now as a passive park.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Right.
MS. EDWARDS: We do have it, but I think they are planning on building a veterans nursing
home on top of this land and stuff, so it would be divided out as it goes.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: But the remaining 14 holes or whatever, will that now be
managed under the Collier County Parks?
MS. EDWARDS: As of right now, yes.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Okay.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Are there -- I'm sorry.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: But, I mean --
MS. EDWARDS: Going forward --
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Are you budgeting forward? Because, you know, to run a golf
course --
MS. EDWARDS: Right.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: -- it's a million, a million and a half dollars a year, and that's on
the cheap. Maintenance, you know --
MS. EDWARDS: I'm going to defer to --
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: -- treatment, all the other things associated with it. So I just
want to make sure that these numbers are taken into account, the potential impact of bringing that on
board.
MS. WILLIAMS: Yeah. And actually, the County Manager is standing behind me.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Say your name for us, please.
MS. WILLIAMS: For the record, Tanya Williams, Public Services Department Head. Thank
you, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
MS. WILLIAMS: County Manager is standing behind me, and she can talk more specifically
about the Golden Gate Golf Course facility because it will turn into a multiuse facility.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yep.
MS. WILLIAMS: Parks will maintain a certain portion of that, but I'll let her explain how that's
going to be sectioned out.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Okay.
MS. PATTERSON: Hello. Amy Patterson, again, for the record.
When we finalize plans for the portion of this property that will remain as a golf course, there
have been a couple of different schools of thought. Originally, you may recall that there was a proposal
for a BigShots facility similar to a Topgolf. That was also going to include them operating the 12-hole
golf course built by the county.
Since BigShots has left and we've reconfigured the placement of various buildings on the
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 36 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023
Page 33 of 48
property, we're now openly exploring how we're going to place the 9- to 12-hole golf course on the
property with the move of the veterans nursing home. It is not the intent of the county to run the golf
course ourselves. There will be an operator that will do that. It's wholly outside our wheelhouse to
operate a golf course, but it will remain as part of the Parks' inventory. So we'll own it, and we will hire
someone to operate it.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: All right. Question answered.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you very much.
Commissioner Schumacher.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Good morning. I'm trying to see, is there any indication
of improvements to current parks in this report that's filed?
MS. EDWARDS: No, sir, not right now. No, sir.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: No? Is there any improvements planned for Veterans
Community Park?
MS. EDWARDS: We do have some improvements. It's minor. But not anything major as
capital-related projects. We're looking at lighting right now, but that's about it.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: That's about it? There's no talk for baseball fields being
redone or --
MS. EDWARDS: No.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: That's been an ongoing conversation for a decade. That I
can tell you. And I apologize. I don't want to sound gruff here, but, frankly, my point of view is if you
carry "veterans" on the name of a park, it should probably be the best-looking park in the county.
MS. EDWARDS: Understood.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: And, quite frankly, the only thing that's "best looking"
over there is the pickleball courts.
MS. EDWARDS: I understand.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: The rest of the park is -- the fences have fallen down.
We had fences that were falling off dugouts that had to be replaced. We've had a number of challenges
out there at that field. The stormwater does not drain, and it's something as simple as the crushed PVC
pipes on the west end of it that have fallen in, which caused it to flood out, and then we just recently had a
four-day irrigation leak that has now resulted in, like, 200 or 300 feet of asphalt being ripped out that's
wide open and getting fixed right now.
MS. EDWARDS: Right.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: So --
MS. EDWARDS: Well, going forward, we will do what we can. We have a lot of
life/health/safety issues at all of our parks that we're taking, so we are prioritizing what we can do, as I
said, right now. Currently, we're working on lights for Veterans, but I will take your comments and note
it, and we will work on a plan to get that corrected.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Okay.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. No one else is signaling at this point, so I think we're ready
to move on. Thank you so much.
MS. EDWARDS: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: I believe the next subject area is going to be Category A facilities under
the CIE, and I think most of this is in the nature of summarizing what we've already seen.
Mr. Bosi, did you want to tee it off?
MR. BOSI: No. I was just going to say, what you have within your CIE is you've got your
Exhibit A and your Exhibit H. Exhibit A are your five-year plans, which are all summarized within your
sections within the -- within the Category A components of the AUIR, and then H is your 6 through 10.
Those are the future projects that are anticipated from each of your Concurrency Management Systems.
But there are -- there are subjects that you guys have been discussing previously.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Sure. I have a question. This is on Exhibit A under roads and bridges.
There is a -- on the revenue side we show three line items that begin with the word "transfer." Could you
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 37 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023
Page 34 of 48
tell me where those are transfers from?
MR. BOSI: I'd have to turn to Transportation Planning for that. But is this the Attachment A
you're referring to?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Exhibit A, then the first one, which is roads and bridges, yeah.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Packet Page 140.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah, thank you, because my pages don't jibe.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: From your IRA, I think.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: What? Oh. Thanks.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: There's no "from." There's only "to."
MS. LANTZ: Lorraine Lantz, Transportation Planning.
While Mike is getting it up, I believe there was a transfer from 112, which was some landscaping
that was transferred into a road project, as well as there was some transfer to be consistent with budget
guidance. And so that was previously known, I believe, as a different fund. It was maybe 310 fund, and
now it's moved into a different fund number, and so that was the transfer.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Okay. Then there -- about two or three lines down there's a line
that says "unfunded needs," 295 million. No, that's not what I want to talk about. I want to talk about
the line immediately above that that says carryforward, 313 to 310, impact fees.
Could you explain the carryforward? I didn't realize that we sometimes ended up with more
impact fees than we needed.
MS. LANTZ: So I believe that some of that carryforward funding is -- I'm sorry -- 55 million.
All right. So it's funding that we had started to collect and, moving forward, so that when we get to
actually doing the project, the funding is available --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh.
MS. LANTZ: -- to be spent.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh. So, I mean, you've got it banked, so to speak.
MS. LANTZ: Yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. No one else is signaling at this time. And -- oh, I know.
Exhibit A, again, this is under roads and bridge projects, and this is the project-by-project number. You
know, 60,212, numbers like that. My request for next year would be that you also include the segment
number that ties back to Attachment F.
MS. LANTZ: On this graphic or --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. I'm looking at the Exhibit A collector roads and bridges projects,
and it lists the projects and their amounts to be expended up to Fiscal Year 2028, and it appears that these
addresses are going to also be occupying space on segments, and it would just be nice for me, because I
try to follow the segments from the standpoint of what's aiming toward deficiency, if we could see a
segment number as well next year.
MR. BOSI: And we can attempt to do that. This is a CIE. The CIE has a specific format the
state would like -- that we present to the state. We tied that -- we tie those projects back within the
component of the transportation section in a more visual and connected way. Within the CIE, we don't
have that level of specificity. We can look into it to try to see in terms of the segments that are going to
be impacted. But for what the state wants to see, the state wants to just see, what are your capital
projects, where are the funding sources, and then what are the revenue sources associated with that.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. I understand, then, why we're where we are. And if it is too
much work that would need to be put in to do that, then don't do it. But it would just be helpful for those
of us who follow these segments and know numbers by heart like, well, 44, would be interested to be able
to match them up with these projects. But, you know, if you can, do; if you can't, I get it.
Let's see. Does anybody have anything on the CIA schedule -- CIE Schedule A numbers?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: If not, then, let's see. I think we've already talked sufficiently about jail
and correctional and law enforcement, and libraries, also, I think we've talked -- unless anybody wants to
say something more about libraries.
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 38 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023
Page 35 of 48
MR. BOSI: And, Chair, on the screen, I've got the summary page up. There are no
proposed -- we have sufficient inventory to satisfy the additional demand that's provided with some
surplus of 4,358 square feet associated with that. So there are no improved programs.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Good, good. And I think -- I expect that the time will come when we'll
be able to subtract some square feet from what is needed for libraries, thanks to technology and the kinds
of things that are being checked out of the library and how they're being checked out.
MR. BOSI: And that's an ongoing conversation the library staff is having with the Board of
County Commissioners in terms of the changing utilization of the library space and the value that's
associated with it in terms of where we see the library utilization for the general public purpose of going
in relationship to the content, the amount that we have for the physical books to the electronic books that
are more and more popular.
So it's a constantly evolving process, and it's one of the things that we're going to continue to talk
with the Board of County Commissioners and the Planning Commission about that, our level of service
for libraries and how they're utilized on a changing basis.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you.
My next subject is EMS, and I believe the County Manager will lead us through this. And I have
a few questions, although so many of them are really age-old questions and age-old problems.
County Manager.
MS. PATTERSON: Commissioners, Amy Patterson, again, for the record. If we want to start
with your questions, that may lead into --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay.
MS. PATTERSON: -- more insight on some things that are changing in EMS.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Good. Good. I have a few. And no one else is signaling, so I'll lead
with mine.
MS. PATTERSON: Sure.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: And, again, a lot of these questions there is no good answer to because,
like everything else, it depends upon the availability of funds and money. And as everyone knows, EMS
has historically needed to borrow from the general operating accounts in order to provide the services at
the desired levels, and that's just a conscious decision that's been made by the Board of County
Commissioners, and it is what it has to be.
Looking at the number of units that -- well, I guess my first question has to do with the number of
16,400 population, one medic unit per, and that number's been around for a long time. Is that still a good
number?
MS. PATTERSON: So that number will be revisited again as the impact fee studies come
forward. EMS has suffered with three distinct levels of service, which is really an interesting situation.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah.
MS. PATTERSON: One is their actual level of service that we can use for the AUIR because
we're allowed to count the stations that are leased as well as the stations that we own, because they do
factor into those response times.
The second is that number you're referring to, which is the level of service driven by the stations
we own and under which we assess our impact fees. And then, of course, we have a response time level
of service, making this one of the most complicated AUIRs to deal with, trying to juggle all of those
things for their various purposes.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Understood. I noticed in here that, whereas, in previous years we've
either gone to owned or leased, and now we're looking at co-owned which I think makes more sense to
me because of the value of real estate. I think that's a good position to be in. Is that why we're doing it?
MS. PATTERSON: There's a number of reasons why, and there's actually a little bit more
information on this.
You-all may know that we recently hired an executive director of public safety who has an
extensive background in fire rescue. He is now the lead in both emergency management and EMS as
well as the liaison to the fire districts and the Sheriff, and he brings with him insight that I think is really
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 39 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023
Page 36 of 48
going to help us as we move forward in this process, and I think you'll be pleased.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Good.
MS. PATTERSON: But the collocation does help both us and the fire districts because the lease
arrangements only benefit one. If they own it and we're there -- unless we can get a long-term lease, it
creates all kinds of complexity. So this collocation idea is one we're really running with, but we are
working on an idea that, essentially, we all commit that we're all going together where we go.
So if North Collier is building a station, EMS is going to be there. If EMS is building a station,
the fire district of where that station is, that fire district is going to be there, and this is going to be a
standing agreement amongst us, number one, to be more efficient and, number two, to cut down on some
of the complexity of this leasing, collocating, co-owning. It's been quite difficult to deal with, so I feel
like that conversation is very positive and is going to lead to allowing us to put medic units in places
where we traditionally have not had them but there is actually space for them.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Good. I'm very glad to hear that.
I remember, and others may as well, the tension that was produced as a result of the proposed
moving of Engine House 40, which is North Collier, and that -- you know, what does that do about the
ambulance? Because the ambulance runs a lot into the City of Naples. And so those of us who live in
the City of Naples were wondering, well, are we going to lose access to that ambulance? But,
fortunately, they're staying at their current location.
Are they going to open another engine house where they had proposed to move 40?
MS. PATTERSON: I am not sure. I know that the places that we're working with North Collier
are out in the eastern part of the -- of the county. Actually, near one of our other locations on DeSoto,
there's another station planned out there closer to the villages where we will also plan to collocate. And
recently, with the approval of a land-use petition, North Collier has property on 41 near old -- not near
Old 41. That's where our location is, but on the northern portions of 41 where they plan another station
where our plans are to collocate there as well.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, okay. So, I mean, North Collier has Engine House 43 up there, I
believe --
MS. PATTERSON: (Nods head.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: -- which is almost to Bonita Beach, and so we would be putting another
collocated engine house/EMS house in that?
MS. PATTERSON: On 41, they have a piece of property that was part of that -- part of that land
use. Cocohatchee.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. Yeah.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: (Unintelligible.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, no, I don't think so. I think that's something different.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: No, I believe it's land that the developer donated.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Donated it to them.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Somehow I thought that was -- that was east of there, but -- so this
is -- this is land that was donated by the developer?
MS. PATTERSON: (Nods head.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Donated or sold?
MS. PATTERSON: Donated.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Then I'm confusing multiple projects. Thank you. I got it
now.
So we're at 26 ambulances. We need to get to 31 in five years, and it's going to be quite a
challenge. Are there any federal grants or state grants available out there that we can --
MS. PATTERSON: Yes. So we are actually working on Station 74, which appears in this
document. That is the DeSoto station. That is a -- it's a three-part collocation with Greater Naples and
North potentially putting an apparatus there. We are pursuing a legislative appropriation for that project.
It is a very large and expensive station.
I will continue to pursue grants where appropriate to be able to stand these up. But, again, with
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 40 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)

Page 37 of 48
the relationship with the fire districts, we view that here in the near future that we're going to have the
ability to place some more medics units in places where we don't currently have them. There are a
number of fire stations that have place for us where we may be able to put an additional ambulance.
The big challenge here is the hiring of people. Last year, we granted 24, 26 positions to EMS to
be able to start to stand up additional ambulances and fill some of those funding shortfalls that they had,
and hiring folks has been a bit of a challenge.
So we've been working on different ways to incentivize hiring to bring people on. And so they
have some vacant positions that we're looking to fill. As we fill those positions, it's going to give us the
ability to stand up more trucks. So even without having to build stations, the ability to get more
ambulances out into these areas, particularly those that are growing and are challenged and do cause
difficulties with the movement of our trucks throughout the county when we get really busy, will be very,
very, very helpful and, again, the fire districts have been very receptive in these conversations of allowing
us space and to stand those units.
Our dream, of course, is to stand up some seasonal units and potentially to look at a future BLS
truck. So there's a lot in work here.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, really? BLS trucks.
MS. PATTERSON: Yes, sir. Yep.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Interesting. So is there any -- well, is -- by way of background, Collier
Boulevard is a dividing line, I think, between our 8-minute and our 12-minute response time goals. Is
there -- is there any possibility that we could be able to populate the eastern part of Collier County
sufficiently to get that response time down?
MS. PATTERSON: Yes. And our new chief feels very strongly about that dividing line being
a geographic boundary and not truly one that's driven by population.
Immokalee is densely populated, but they have a 12-minute response time. So, yes, that is, I
would say, in his -- in his top five of priorities is looking at how we handle that and to deal with the
growth in the east and the impact that it has had on our units and our need to move units around this
county.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Remind me, do the Sheriff's deputies have AEDs in their cars?
MS. PATTERSON: I believe they do, but I would not want to speak for the Sheriff. I can find
out for you for sure.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Commissioner Sparrazza.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Thank you.
Quick question, if I understood this correctly. Collocation is relatively new, and you're moving
forward with that at all locations, or you're trying to?
MS. PATTERSON: Collocation itself isn't new. It's the way that we approach it from the
financial side of the house that has evolved. We have traditionally had ambulances at fire stations. A
lot of times they were owned by the fire districts, and we were there through a rental agreement or a lease
agreement. Now, that creates all sorts of difficulties for us on the level of service side of the house when
it comes to impact fees. We could talk about this for hours, and, believe me, you probably -- you don't
want to. So we had moved to a collocation model where we were in co-ownership or in long-term leases.
What we're trying to do is continue on with that collocation but try to simplify this down and
basically come to agreements that we're all going to be together wherever we're going, and we try to come
to unified lease terms and/or if we build a station, we make space for fire; fire builds a station, they make
space for us, eliminating this need for all of these complicated arrangements. It gets us to the same place
for the purposes of response times and levels of service, but it cuts out a lot of the bureaucracy involved
in all of these arrangements that have evolved over time.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: And that was leading me to my second question, because
just driving around the beautiful county, you see, usually, fire truck or two, and an EMS together. And
I -- when you started to refer to collocation, you're really talking about the financial business end of it, not
physically, because they're already, many times, physically together. It's whether the ambulance is
leasing back from the county or the county's leasing -- okay. Very good.

MS. PATTERSON: Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Thank you.
MS. PATTERSON: Now, the conversation about how we move forward in different types of
partnerships -- because, yes, to your point, you see a fire truck. You may see a squad. You see an
ambulance, and then we talk about how they respond out together. All of these are conversations that are
ongoing on how we deliver the best and most efficient service to the residents of Collier County together.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Thank you very much.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: On serious calls, breathing problems, cardiac problems, and others, the
dispatcher will send not only an ambulance but also a fire suppression vehicle, and those are almost all,
if -- well, maybe not Immokalee, but almost all ALS equipped. And so when we count our 12-minute
response time, for instance, to the rural area, the parts of the county to the east, that's the first ALS unit to
respond. They can defibrillate, they can start IVs, and do other thing. They can't transport, but they can
do all the other things. And fire trucks are always -- almost always going to get there before the
ambulances, are they not?
MS. PATTERSON: There's a lot of -- we're heavily saturated with ALS units, particularly in the
urban area, with those ALS capabilities, so, yes, and they do stop the clock. And part of this
conversation is, number one, getting more medical units but also is the inner workings of how we work
with each other to deliver that service without what can appear to be redundancy or not the most efficient
use of the taxpayers' resources.
So -- and that -- that help from the fire districts, when used properly, lessens the stress placed on
us having to move medic units around the county when we get really busy.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Understood. I guess two or three days ago Marvin Easton published a
third letter -- opinion letter to the editor in the Naples Daily News, and I think together -- and he's a very
well-respected international consultant who has been involved in working on various committees and
commissions over the years to look at quality of fire service and EMS service.
And he -- he is -- well, first off to say, fortunately, there have been a number of mergers recently,
and so that's a good thing. You know, various departments that used to exist have consolidated down to
either five or six. I'm not sure the exact number. But he's calling for even more. And it's -- you know,
from my perspective, which is just as a reader of the newspaper, it seems to me that that's a good idea. I
was wondering what the county's position is on it.
MS. PATTERSON: We're open to all conversations about how we better cooperate. We have
been having regular meetings with the fire districts, with the cities because they have their fire folks as
well, even with the Sheriff on how we plan, how we work together, how we work together differently.
Consolidation, which is a word that causes people to have a bit of anxiety, does not have to be a bad
thing. It definitely isn't a bad thing. So we like now to use the term "enhanced cooperation," and we're
moving those conversations along in how we're looking at how we respond to calls, again, how we're
locating together and all of those ways that we can perform more efficiently.
So stay tuned for those conversations. I feel like they're really positive steps that are happening,
and I think we'll have good news to deliver to you as we move through this process.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: And there's been good news also developing with respect to what
technology can bring to the party. And the Sheriff's Office dispatches all the fire districts, fire
departments, and EMS. And so not only do they have their computer-aided databases that show where
the closest units are, closest appropriate unit, but they also have the capability to dispatch under what's
called automatic mutual aid. And just as -- it's automatic. If you -- if you have a medical call, for
instance, in the City of Naples, and the two Naples EMS vehicles are -- well, if the Naples -- if they're out
fighting a fire, another fire suppression apparatus will come in along with the Naples-based EMS, and that
will be automatic.
So you get the closest available unit even if they're not consolidated, which is the good side of the
story. The not so good side of the story is sometimes it results in disparities between what taxpayers are
paying in millage.
Some areas, some districts consume more benefits from mutual aid than they give back, and that's

the kind of thing that perhaps could be -- could be better achieved in the event of consolidation.
But having said that, I know it's highly political, and there are all sorts of variables involved.
But I wanted to bring it out because it's something I think that's important for us to think about.
MS. PATTERSON: Absolutely. And we will be meeting with Mr. Easton again coming up
here soon to talk about some of those things that, you know, he's been asking questions about --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Good.
MS. PATTERSON: -- and can give him an update on our progress together.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Good, good, good.
Thank you. Thank you, County Manager. I don't have anything further on EMS. Anybody
else?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: All right. Thank you, ma'am.
MS. PATTERSON: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Let's see. I go to county government buildings, and I don't think I've
got really much of anything on this to say that hasn't already been said, because a lot of this is just
recapitulation.
So no one is signaling on that, which takes us to Coastal Zone Management. And, again -- oh, I
do have a question about this. You know, in light of Ian -- did you want to make a prefatory comment?
MR. BOSI: No. But if -- any questions, we have Andy Miller here, who is the manager, so --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Good. All right. Ian, just like Irma previous to it, was a big drawdown
of our reserves, correct?
MR. MILLER: Correct. And, for the record, it's Andy Miller with Coastal Zone Management.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. And so having drawn down those reserves, we need to
replenish them before the next one hits. And, I mean, these forecasts are built on five-year projections.
And, you know, we may or may not have enough for this year or next year but eventually, as is in the case
of almost all these other resources that we have, by the time we get to year four and year five, we need
to -- we need to be having some new money found. We don't want to lower our LOSS. I mean, I don't.
I think it would be a terrible black mark on the county if we had to do that, and I don't think anybody
wants to. But either you do that or you raise funds somehow.
So having said that, sir, do you want to comment on my comment?
MR. MILLER: Yes. And, you know, we work with a fairly healthy reserve, but it did take a hit
last year from Hurricane Ian and, specifically, we did a lot of good work, and we spent the county's
money, but the good news is, I think we're looking at some reimbursements from the State of Florida and
some reimbursement from FEMA to offset some of those expenditures. We've got some pretty
promising grants either in process or in the bag from FDEP to the tune of $10 million, and FEMA has
given us a preliminary obligation of $8 million, so we're already up to 18 million out of that 20-plus
million that we spent. So that will go right back into reserves and pump us up for the short term.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Have we recovered everything from FEMA or any other sources that we
had expected to get from -- first I'll ask you about Irma.
MR. MILLER: From Irma, I can't really answer that, although I know we did have some
difficulties because of the timing that we completed the work, and so I think we're going to have a lot
better results from what we accomplished with our grants folks and Ian.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. So there's more money coming in on Irma, and you feel like
you're on top of the issue?
MR. MILLER: That's correct.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Then on Ian, I imagine there's been a smaller percentage of our
total recovery at this point, am I correct?
MR. MILLER: And I think I want to reverse what I just -- what I just said was that we had some
issues with getting grant reimbursement from Irma related to the timing of the work that we accomplished
and the requirements from FEMA and the like.
Ian is a totally different story. We reacted immediately and work very closely with FEMA.
5.A.a

November 2, 2023
Page 40 of 48
And so, like I said, we're looking at grant reimbursements somewhere in the neighborhood of $10 million
from the state that are already pretty much a done deal, and then FEMA has indicated that they are
obligating $8 million for our emergency berm work as well, and so we're doing a lot better job with Ian
than Irma.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Could you speak briefly about -- and the vice chairman may
want to weigh in on this as well -- but the interplay between the FEMA money and the hurricanes and the
study group that he is a member of looking at how to harden our coastline.
MR. MILLER: What I can tell you is that FEMA will not be in the mix as far as what Army
Corps -- they're two totally -- as a matter of fact, when you bring on an Army Corps project and get
obligated, authorized, FEMA is pretty much out of the picture. It's totally Army Corps that comes to the
rescue on those. Up until that point, up until we actually construct, if we do, our resiliency project,
FEMA will still be in the mix.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Did you want to say anything more about that?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Well, he's correct. FEMA responds to the disaster. And if it's
declared a federal disaster, typically the Army Corps of Engineers is the entity that FEMA turns to to do
the assessments and to respond. And Public Law 84-99, Public Law 93-288, the federal response act, or
whatever it's called today, the federal response plan, and it has all the categories, FEMA controls those
various response categories, one of which you referred to, the Army Corps of Engineers, is typically shore
protection and debris cleanup and all the other type of things. FEMA is the overarching manager, but
the -- is not involved in any way in the core study, the feasibility study, that's going on right now.
FEMA's not involved.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you. That's all I have on Coastal Zone Management, and
that actually brings us to the end of this exercise.
Oh, Commissioner Schumacher.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Mr. Miller, if I could ask you a question, please. On the
Fiscal Year '24, it's showing beach renourishment at 3.8 for Parkshore and 100,000 for Clam Pass. Is
there -- is that just because it's a smaller section from Seagate to the top of Clam Pass there? Is that why
there's only 100,000 budgeted for it?
MR. MILLER: That's correct. I think Parkshore is in the order of maybe two miles, and Clam
Pass is maybe a thousand feet, something like that.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: And when are those scheduled to occur?
MR. MILLER: They're not scheduled because -- as a matter of fact, the sand that we lost from
Irma was primarily the dunes, and so the sand that was the beach proper wound up offshore. And so we
did annual monitoring this year, which is basically a survey effort. And the monitoring came in that says
you really don't need -- especially with the 400,000 tons of sand we just put on the beach for the berm, we
don't necessarily need to do these renourishment projects.
So we've got them in our budget. We'll revisit the beaches in January and have our surveys done
then. And if the engineering consultant tells us that, hey, you've got a hot spot in Parkshore or otherwise,
they'll recommend a renourishment project, and we'll do that. But the funding is available.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Has there been any conversation on increasing the size of
that berm height-wise? And let me skip to the end. Naples Cay, we had $60,000 in damage from Idalia.
I was there for the surge. It was a 4-foot surge on top of a king tide, and it came over top of that dune
and submerged our entry road with about 2 to 3 feet of water, and then it about took out our FPL box, too,
but there was just zero protection there.
So is there any conversation of reanalyzing those areas to say, hey, maybe we should bump this
up a little bit and make it a little higher for this section here?
MR. MILLER: Well, I think the conversations that are headed in that direction are more
associated with the CSRM project. They're talking about -- they were talking about it in the previous
effort of having berms in the neighborhood of Elevation 12. Ours that we just put in are Elevation 6, so
that's a huge difference.
The issue is, as you raise the berm, you're either robbing from the beach or you're going to need
5.A.a

to widen the beach out into the gulf to retain that design standard that we have; that is 100 feet in some
places and 85 in others. And as you widen into the gulf, you widen towards the offshore hard bottom,
nearshore hard bottom. And so we're kind of -- we have these design constraints that limit -- limit us to
some extent on how wide and how high we can make the beaches.
There's probably opportunities to do what you just -- what you just mentioned by making the
dunes higher, making the beaches wider, impacting the hard bottom, and then mitigating for the impacts
to the hard bottom, so that's kind of the ongoing discussion.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Okay. Thank you, sir.
MR. MILLER: Yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
Vice Chairman.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yeah. Just to clarify, we do not have any federally authorized
projects for beach renourishment in Collier County. All of the beach renourishment and shore protection
are county projects. There's nothing that has gone through any type of federal type of authorization or
appropriation. That's what the study is, of course, looking at and whether there's going to be any type of
improvements through the feasibility study that's ongoing.
But the monies certainly that -- the monies are not federal dollars. They come from either the
General Fund or tourist taxes or wherever the county raises the revenue to do the shore protection
projects.
MR. MILLER: Yes. They're tourist development --
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: When I mentioned FEMA and I mentioned the Army Corps of
Engineers, if there's a federal disaster and there are disaster dollars to solve one particular issue, there are
opportunities to have federal money do specific things. But, typically, it does not happen unless it's a
federal project, and that's under Public Law 84-99, which is the coastal management type aspects of
where they can have emergency dollars come in and repair dunes and types of things. But we don't have
any of that in Collier County, and that's a choice that the county has made for years not to -- not to use
federal dollars.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: I appreciate the clarification. The issue that I've seen is
when you look at the Army Corps of Engineers plan, it stops at Seagate and doesn't go to Clam Pass
which, therefore, cuts all of Naples Cay out.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yeah. But that, again, is a -- that is a decision of the local
sponsor. The local sponsor being -- the local nonfederal sponsor is the county. And if the county wants
to look at things beyond what is being proposed, that is the -- that has to come from the -- that has to
come from the county as the nonfederal support.
Jamie.
MR. FRENCH: Thank you, Commissioner.
For the record, Jamie French, the -- I'm the department head for Growth
Management/Community Development.
The relevancy study currently underway with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is within my
purview under our resiliency group under Chris Mason. We spoke yesterday with the Naples City
Council about this. That study will go all the way just south of the Gordon River.
So, Commissioner Schumacher, it is inclusive. So the study, perhaps, that you're mentioning is
the study that was never completed, but that is not this study, so that we're clear. This is a study that
currently --
(Simultaneous crosstalk.)
MR. FRENCH: This goes beyond Gordon River, sir, so that's going to be beyond -- well beyond
Clam Pass, 8th Street, all of those others. So it is inclusive of that --
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: You're thinking of south.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah, you're talking about north.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: You're south. I'm next to Pelican Bay.
MR. FRENCH: I know exactly where you are, and it goes all the way up the coastline. So what
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 45 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023
Page 42 of 48
I'm saying is that it is a much more comprehensive area that will cover the coastline of Collier County,
and that study, we will not make comment on that study because we have nothing to comment on. We
are currently within that study period.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has not produced anything yet, and once they produce their
report, at that point -- and we're so appreciative of Commissioner Schmitt being on that committee. But
we have monthly calls with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and that is available to the public. There
are members from the City of Naples as well as City of Marco on those calls. And there are also -- we
have biweekly calls, so every two weeks, and the Naples as well as Marco Island staff are on that call.
So they do have an ongoing every-two-week staff call with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and then
we have a monthly open-to-the-public call, and all of that information is published by the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Just to clarify again, the study will study whatever the county
would like the Corps to study, but they have to stay within the statutory requirements of the $3 million,
2.98 or whatever it is.
MR. FRENCH: It's a 3 by 3 by 3. They have three years, and they have $3 million to spend,
and they have made it exceedingly clear that Congress has not expanded their time or their dollars.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: They have a funding limit requirement, but they'll study
whatever the local sponsor would like to study, and that's -- apparently, right now, the movement,
predominant pressure, I believe, that the Corps is getting from the number of people who participate in
the conference calls is for nonstructural alternatives.
MR. FRENCH: Higher, wider beaches.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Resiliency and other type of nonstructural alternatives, so that's
the direction that the Corps will move, and that's based not on the committee. We advised the
Board -- we were -- the committee was formed to advise the Board, but the Board -- in essence, the
county staff, but the Board is the -- for all intent and purposes, is the nonfederal -- entity that's deemed the
nonfederal sponsor, and that's who the Corps will take direction from.
MR. FRENCH: You are absolutely correct, sir.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: And if the county doesn't become the nonfederal sponsor, the
Corps could look to another taxing authority, whether that's Marco Island, the City of Naples. And
that's -- that's what the study does. I can get into great detail about the study, the process, and whatever
else, but from that standpoint -- and we're looking at, right now, Jamie, 2025?
MR. FRENCH: We anticipate --
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Final report?
MR. FRENCH: We anticipate their preliminary report probably around April or May of next
year, and at that point that will give us something to work off of. But understand that this is beyond just
local citizens that have been here a lifetime, let's say. But these are -- we've got a number of skilled
contractors as well as engineers, from Ken Humiston to Josh Maxwell who came from Turrell Hall who's
now with another firm. These -- the representation that exists on this advisory committee is
exceptionally strong, and they're very tied to this community, and certainly not to lean on Joe or to lean
on Ken Humiston, but there's no one that knows these studies better than those two, no doubt.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yeah. And the -- understand -- again, for the Board's
edification, for us, the study is just that, a study, then it has to go through -- it goes through the final -- it
goes through what they call the chief's report, chief of engineers, and it goes through the budgetary
process if it's -- if the local sponsor agrees to sign the agreement to become the local contributing
nonfederal sponsor. Then, if the project is, quote, finally approved as a congressionally authorized
project, the next hurdle, of course, is the funding for it, authorization and appropriation. Appropriation is
entirely different. At any given time, there might be 800 to 1,000 authorized projects on the books that
are not funded. So it could be an authorized project but never funded because there's dollars
that -- there's other projects that compete.
And in reality, when you look at the state of Florida, the monies that are coming into Florida,
when you look at the dollars, and the money that is being spent either in Lake O or on Everglades
5.A.a
Packet Pg. 46 Attachment: 11-02-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27279 : November 2, 2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes)
November 2, 2023
Page 43 of 48
restoration, that's a huge amount of federal dollars that comes into -- or comes into the state of Florida. I
have to say, this would probably not be up there in the competing category against other requirements.
So there's -- I hate to be a -- kind of pour cold water, but the fact is, the study will be the study,
but the difficulty will then be getting the dollars appropriated, and that could be years away.
MR. FRENCH: Well -- and thank you for that, Joe.
Part and parcel to that is that we're also -- we're also participating in the state resiliency program
where we're looking at the vulnerability of our coastline and those that would be inclusive of stormwater
elements and those areas -- and so that the county recently recognized a $50,000 grant to go towards a
study.
And we've contracted, I believe, with Wood Engineering, which is very familiar with the state of
Florida. In fact, they do most of the modeling around the state of Florida and work closely with the state.
So we are working with our chief resiliency officer for the state of Florida, his staff, on looking at that as
well. Clearly, it might be a capital element that we would recognize in the future hearings of AUIRs, but
at this point we are simply measuring now.
So we are well underway. We are very versed. As many of you know, our group is also
responsible -- we are not first responders, but the community, as it was put recently when I visited the
Florida Legislation, think about it like an iceberg. There's still -- what you see is the storm, the water, the
damage. What you don't see underneath of the water is the rest of the iceberg, and that's the recovery
portion, and it's monumental.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: I'm still in it, trust me.
MR. FRENCH: And I would tell you that the best and worst day in my career is when Joe hired
me, right? So I had no idea what I was getting into, but I could tell you that Hurricane Irma took us
better than four -- better than five years, and on the day we issued our last roofing final, along comes Ian.
So these are not quick fixes, the recovery piece, the assessment piece, the habitability piece of
these communities. We're very highly trained and skilled in that area. We can always improve.
Clearly, we're not infallible, but I would tell you that we take this vulnerability piece -- because that helps
us as well on getting our community stood back up from both a socioeconomic portion but also just
structural safety of our community. We get it.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Thank you, Mr. French. I'll ask you after the meeting.
I've just got a couple other things.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Vice Chairman?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Jamie, I have one other question; different subject, different
issue. And I saw the numbers of the certificates of occupancy, the COs issued by year. Is the trend line,
from our standpoint, the zoning, the things that we have approved -- and I know when we think about
what we have approved over the last 18 to 20 months along Collier County -- or along Collier Boulevard
and other areas in the east. My question is, where are we on a standpoint of -- is it going up, is it steady,
or going down on building permits and certificates of occupancy?
MR. FRENCH: So it's kind of a -- it's a two-part answer. So you've got to consider the COVID
factor. There was a great migration where we saw across the nation in 2019 and '20, for the first time in
the history of Collier County, what we saw is we saw some areas, such as California, outpacing
Wisconsin and New York, and that's -- you know, go west, young man, where they were coming back
home. At the end of the day, we've seen that start to balance back out.
So year over year, we're about 13 to 14 percent down in transaction value and about 10 percent
less in revenue dollars. Now, I refer back to revenue dollars because we're -- I like to brag about it, so
I'm going to do it again. We're the only group in the entire county that has actually not only kept our
fees, but we've reduced our fees in eight years. And I know that the County Manager is shaking her head
saying, oh, gosh, what are you doing? But at the end of the day, we pride our --
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: She's running out.
MR. FRENCH: Yep. We pride ourselves on not just being able to provide good service, but
efficient service. It could always be better.
But when we look at that, if we go back pre-COVID, we are on that same growth pattern. And
5.A.a

so when we see these Site Development Plans, we see the entitlements come forward for consideration,
we know that we are 12 to 18 months out before we actually break ground and start to go vertical.
So we are well positioned both financially as an organization, as an enterprise organization, to
have a level of stability within our staff to support new growth as it comes in, but hopefully we don't go
through what we saw in 2009/2010, but we're not there. We track commodity markets. We recognize
everything from concrete to lumber on what that market's doing so that we can better forecast not only the
skill of employee that we need but also what additional buildings we would need to house them as well as
how we're going to be able to provide that level of service.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Good. Thanks.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. Did you want to say something, Mr. Bosi?
MR. BOSI: (Shakes head.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. We're at the end of the line here. I want to say just a couple of
things and then ask for a vote. And what I'd like to say is to extend a word of extreme thanks and
confidence in the job that staff did, and by that I mean the County Manager and her office, the Growth
Management office, Jamie French, Mike Bosi, Ms. Eastley, Ms. Cook --
MR. FRENCH: All her.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Jaime Cook, okay.
Everyone did a terrific job on this, and we're all constrained by finances, you know, but that's a
serious issue, and we've got to confront it. My sense of things is that we're going to be okay for the next
couple of years, but when we get out more toward Year 5, by then we need to have some solutions in
place other than lowering our level-of-service standard, which we don't want to do.
So at this point I would entertain a motion. And before anyone makes one, think about
whether -- whether in our motion we want to simply recommend it for approval and send it to the Board
of County Commissioners or add a reference to our concern about the later years and the five-year plan,
or is that simply a statement of the obvious? And if it is, it might not be necessary.
So with that, unless anybody else has concluding remarks, I'd entertain a motion.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Well, I'll just -- on the discussion on your point, Mr. Chairman.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah, go ahead.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: It sort of is a statement of the obvious, because every year we do
the AUIR. It is -- as Mike just said, it's a capture, it's a snapshot. But if you go back every year for the
last maybe 15 years, that's always been an issue.
And, of course, our board, our Board of County Commissioners, they have the tough challenge of
remaining millage neutral and whether tax value of property goes up or down, but at some point, yeah,
they may have to decide to raise the millage rate, which is very unpopular. But I guess we could point
something out that, yeah, the out-years don't look very healthy, but I have to say two years from now it's
going to be the same thing. And I think we'll be -- we'll be healthy. So I don't know, maybe it is a
statement of the obvious.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you.
Commissioner Shea.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Probably a question for Mike. I always get astounded by the size of
the unfunded revenue that's required. Is this normal at the 25 percent level? If you went back over
every year we've done this for the last few years, is it normally that high a percentage of our capital
budget over five years that we don't know where we're going to get our money from? It seemed awful
high. I don't remember it being this high, but I don't have a great memory.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: And then to add to that, Paul, the worst thing, as you and I know
from our engineering background, is deferred maintenance.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Yes.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: You just keep on pushing it.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Very scary.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: And you keep on pushing. And the more you push --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Huge capital expense.

COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: -- the worse it gets, yes.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: County Manager, did you want to say a word?
MR. BOSI: What I just put on the screen, Ms. Eastley put together a comparison of the '21, '22,
and '23 AUIR in relationship to the overall expenditure in relationship to the unfunded needs. And they
really sit within transportation and stormwater, for the most part.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: Yeah.
MR. BOSI: And if you look at the percentage of that unfunded needs to overall expenditures, it's
maybe a little bit percentage higher but not a tremendous deviation from what we had before.
I think we traditionally have, with both of those areas, trouble within the Years 4 and 5, the
out-years of identifying those revenue sources. So it's not a huge departure from where we were the
prior year or for 2021 in that matter, but it's just a consistent -- we're always trying to struggle to find the
necessary funds for the entire five-year program. It's the Years 1 through 3 that we're confident that we
have the identified funds to be able to tell -- at least have those projects, you know, move to completion.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: That's pretty -- I don't know if I agree with your assessment. I think
the percentage is a lot bigger when you do them with the numbers.
But I think we should make a statement, because it worries me how much of it -- I think the
percentage of unfunded is growing, and it's a bigger challenge. And I realize a lot of it is in the next two
or three years, but we're looking out five years, and that number, to me -- and I think if you do the
percentages, it's a lot more growth than you think of the unfunded versus the total expenditure.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Commissioner Sparrazza.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Thank you, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: I'm sorry, County Manager, did you want to speak first?
MS. PATTERSON: If I may just for a moment.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Of course.
MS. PATTERSON: I don't disagree with you, and I think you have two things going on here.
One is that we have experienced over the last couple of years these absolutely astronomical increases in
cost. So that is a factor here because, obviously, we want this document to represent -- we don't have a
crystal ball, but we want to represent the truest picture we have right now. So a project that cost
$5 million a few years ago may cost 7 or $10 million now. It's just the reality of our situation.
But the second thing is is we made a commitment to the Board of County Commissioners that we
would show them the full picture of what's going on and not to scare anybody but, really, so that they can
make good decisions on how we fund things and what our priorities are and so showing the magnitude of
these needs, reasonably.
There are a lot more needs in stormwater, but there's no point in showing a work plan that can
never be accomplished. So this is an attempt to balance and have some reasonableness to the needs as
well as what's a reasonable program and then, therefore, the shortfall.
So, you know, we had years where we were only producing a balanced AUIR. And if that meant
that there was $5 million in stormwater, there's $5 million in stormwater. That was always showed.
There were years that we were mandated to have a financially feasible AUIR, and that's all you
would show was a program that would balance with the revenue, and that started to change, and now
we're really trying to show the Board the magnitude of the need, particularly as, you know, two things
happen. As we grow and -- unique to stormwater probably than any other category in here is -- other
than utilities is as we age. So as that aging infrastructure continues to head towards the end of its useful
life or surpass it, we have a lot of needs out there for the community.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
Commissioner Sparrazza.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Thank you, sir.
Going along with what you started, I believe most of the Board here is on that same topic of what
do we say or ask or put in our recommendation to the Board? Could we be as bold to ask or suggest that
the Board, in nine months, whatever time frame is appropriate, has a first draft of a plan for a five-year
program to increase those revenues and not to just allow them to say, yes, we have to work on it?

November 2, 2023
Page 46 of 48
Unfortunately, it ends up being kicking the can down the road. Maybe they'll start on it next year.
Is there a way we could reasonably ask them, can you put a timetable together on your first
proposal or a draft or ideas?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: That's a good point. I'm just -- I'm not sure politically whether --
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: I recognize that.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: -- whether that --
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: I'm amongst friends here, so I can say that.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah.
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: I don't even know if that's within our --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. Well, it may or may not be, and here's the County Manager.
What do you recommend that we do?
MS. PATTERSON: So back to our conversation about the stormwater utility, it may be
something as simple as supporting the Board's exploration of -- exploration of viable options to fund
some of these shortfalls that are outside of the traditional funding source, which is ad valorem and impact
fees.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: That sounds much more politically correct than what I was
suggesting.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. So we're recommending exploration and that, I think, is the --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: And expressing concern.
MS. PATTERSON: The magnitude of the need is large, and we need viable options to
sustainably fund these types of programs.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: So if we don't need them, then somebody's into a big contest as
prioritizing where you're going to spend the lesser amount of capital dollars, and we --
MS. PATTERSON: That was the --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: What we're looking at here could be a plan that never gets
implemented because it's -- as Joe says, it's not funded. It's appropriated, but not -- approved but not
appropriated.
MS. PATTERSON: The Board's direction in our budget process was to turn over every rock and
challenge everything that we have known about budgeting, which would include the capital program, to
look at the budget going into FY '24. I would suggest that this is one of those things.
We've assumed a certain way of doing things. And while it's changed a little bit, exploration of
the traditional ways of funding capital improvements may need a refresh. And it may be that it comes
back to say we still are comfortable with largely using gas tax, impact fees, and property taxes to fund the
bulk of our capital program, or it may say we liked the use of the surtax, for example, which is sunsetting
here in December, or we would like you to look at a stormwater utility again. Just exploring those things
doesn't commit us to having to do them but simply says these are the options that you have at your
disposal.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Is there an opportunity for us to, when we ask for the
explanation -- exploration to begin to put a timetable on it?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: That, I think, might be pushing it.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Yeah, that might be.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Timetables are for the Board to --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: We're volunteers.
COMMISSIONER SPARRAZZA: Or ask -- no, ask them if they can come up -- I'm just
afraid -- maybe I'm off -- I'm afraid that, yep, we're going to do that, and next year we'll start looking
at -- and it just never happens, and before we know it, the five years are here. You need the money for
the stormwater program, and all of a sudden we get a 30 percent increase in our taxes. That's all. I'll
leave it at that. Thank you, Paul, for --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Commissioner Schumacher.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: I was just going to call -- I was going to call for a
motion --

CHAIRMAN FRYER: Go right ahead. Make a motion.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: -- to approve with a note for the Board of Collier County
Commissioners to explore viable options for funding of future projects that indicate shortfall.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well said.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Does that sound right?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: It does to me.
MS. PATTERSON: Absolutely.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Is there a second?
COMMISSIONER SCHMITT: I second.
Does that sound right to the County Manager?
MS. PATTERSON: Yes, sir. And if you really wanted to put a time frame on it without a time
frame, you most certainly would want to see this in advance of next year's AUIR because that number
could be larger next year than it is this year. So, I mean, it does -- we're going to be doing this as part of
the budget, so that should, I hope, provide you some assurance that this will be -- the capital program will
be a focal point of the '24 budget, and the shortfalls will be explored at that time.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: That sounds good.
Further discussion?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: It's been moved and seconded that we approve the AUIR and the CIE
with the exploration suggestion also added to our motion, and county staff will write that in a diplomatic

CHAIRMAN FRYER: All right. Now we'll go to old business, of which there is presumably
none.

MR. BOSI: Chair, you have a live mic.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you, Mr. Bosi.
Warm welcome to everyone on this 16th day of November 2023. This is the
meeting of the Collier County Planning Commission. Glad you're here with us.
Everybody please rise for the Pledge of Allegiance.
(The Pledge of Allegiance was recited in unison.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Secretary, please call the roll.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Chair Fryer?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Here.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Vice Chair Schmitt, no.
Secretary Shea is here.
Commissioner Vernon?

MS. LOCKHART: Here.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Did you hear me?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yes, we did, and I neglected to do what I always needed to
before we call the roll, and that's just to get your request to participate electronically and
give us a brief statement for cause. We'd appreciate that.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Yes. I'm traveling today to a family wedding, and
so...
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Granted, without objection, Planning Commission.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Which is -- I'm not going to be able to be there --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: That's fine.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: -- in person, but I can --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: Second. Have fun.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, thank you for calling in. We appreciate that. All
right.
All absences have been excused.
Addenda to the agenda; we have two requests for continuance. And I'm going to
ask Mr. Bellows to go over this, but first I want to remind the Planning Commission what
the standards are. Because these are not automatic, and sometimes when I see emails
come in where, in this case -- and I'm not going to mention any names -- but one of the
applicants -- one of the applicants, one of that applicant's agents, texted me to say that -- no
need for a meeting because that item will be continued, and, of course, that's our decision
to make. And there is a pretty clear standard in here.
And I'm not making any judgments about whether the two matters in question
today rise to the standard or not. That's for us to talk about. But I just want to be sure
everybody understands, you know, the role that we play. And this follows Planning
5.B.a

November 16, 2023
Page 3 of 31
Commission Resolution 2023-1 which was promulgated by us under authority of the
Planning Commission organizational ordinance which authorizes us to adopt not only
bylaws but rules of procedure as long as they're not in conflict with any other law.
And so here's -- I'm going to just quote some excerpts out of this. And, again, I'm
not trying to lean anybody to one thing or another. I just want everybody to know what
the standard is of consideration on our part.
It says, the Planning Commission expects that every item that has been advertised
and public notification has been given shall only occur when both staff and the applicant
are prepared to have the application heard by the Planning Commission. Should either the
applicant or staff wish to continue the item, they may do so by requesting a continuance.
The request for a continuance shall be in writing and shall state all the facts the requester
contends justify a continuance. And the Planning Commission may grant a request for
continuance if and only if good cause is shown. And good cause includes, but is not
limited to the following: Number one, unavailability of a party, counsel, or material
witness due to death, illness, or other extenuating circumstance; two, when the denial of a
continuance creates a material and unavoidable hardship for the requesting party; and,
three, where the cause of the request was unforeseeable and not the result of dilatory
conduct. And that last one is pretty broad.
Then it goes on to say, if the Planning Commission determines by majority vote
that good cause for a continuation has been shown, then the item will be continued to a
date no earlier than six weeks. Now, we could, by majority vote, set something earlier,
but we're in a situation here -- and I'll say more about that after Mr. Bellows announces
these requests -- we're jammed up at the Planning Commission for December and January,
and so any request would -- if granted, would have to go no earlier than February 1st.
And I just want to be sure that the applicants understand that, you know, we could
hear them today, but if they continue to request a continuance, which, of course, they have
a right to request, it's going to be moved all the way to February 1st at the earliest,
probably February 1st, but we can't make any guarantees at this time. So that's the
background that I wanted to present.
And with that, Mr. Bellows.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Can I ask a question.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Please go ahead.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: I guess process-wise I don't understand. That means
they submit a request, but they all have to come to the meeting prepared to talk because
they don't know if it's granted until we meet. Isn't there a better way to do this?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: There might be. This is the resolution we have in front of
us, and we can always change it, although it gets very complicated when we can't talk to
each other. It gets next to impossible. I suppose there's a way that staff could manage it,
and we could consider doing that.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Well, right now, what if we vote that we want to not
approve the contingencies [sic]; they're not here to discuss it because they made an
application that can't be approved until we say.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well -- okay. Well, let me -- let me just pre -- let me
preview my take on this. I've talked to both applicants, and in my personal view, they
have -- they're able to show good cause. So I'm not worried about this particular one.
But I wanted to be sure that they recognize that they're on the docket for today, and we

could hear them today, but if we do find good cause, it's going to -- it's going to not be in
December or January pursuant to our resolution. And I just want to be sure that when the
applicants come up, they have a full and complete understanding that that's the situation we
find ourselves in, because we've got a lot of very -- numerous and consequential rezone
hearings coming before us in December and January.
So with that, turn it back over to Mr. Bellows to announce the first -- the first
request we received.
MR. BELLOWS: Good morning. The first item is actually a companion item.
It's 9A1 and 9A2. 9A1 is PL20220003804. It's the GMP amendment for JLM Living
East Residential Overlay, and that companion item is PL2022 -- thank you -- 0003805, and
that's the PUD for that JLM.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
Mr. Yovanovich, did you want to tell us --
MR. YOVANOVICH: Do you want me to -- sure.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Just give us some cause.
MR. YOVANOVICH: Sure. Well, briefly, two reasons: One, I did anticipate
that we would be discussing the 30 percent set-aside. I was prepared for that. I wasn't
prepared for the actual request to reduce the density 6.4 units per acre, but I could have
addressed that. But most importantly --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: You mean 9.4, I think.
MR. YOVANOVICH: Well, they wanted to go down to a much lower density at a
25 percent set-aside. There were two options.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Gotcha. Okay.
MR. YOVANOVICH: I wasn't prepared for that one. I was prepared for the
other.
But, more importantly, it was discovered that we -- our PUD, we were asked to
have a 60 percent open-space requirement, which was fine. We originally had in our
GMP amendment the ability to reduce it to 50 percent, just like all other affordable
housing applications, if they went through typical 2.06 process in the LDC.
Somehow -- and we can't all figure out how that original 50 percent came out of the
document, the GMP amendment.
So if you went forward today and approved the PUD and the GMP, the PUD would
be inconsistent with the Growth Management Plan because the Growth Management Plan
requires a 70 percent set-aside.
So instead of doing all of this on the fly, we would prefer to continue this, make
sure all the right documents are in front of you. We've already told staff we are going to
agree to the increase to 30 percent. So we didn't want to do all that on the fly. We
wanted to have the complete documents in front of you, in front of the public, and that's the
basis for our request, because we really can't go forward because of the Growth
Management Plan text not being accurate.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. I -- as I mentioned, I'm inclined to grant the
request, but you've had these materials since last Friday and --
MR. YOVANOVICH: I called Mike on Thursday when we first got them.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah.
MR. YOVANOVICH: I told him we were going to ask for the request. The
county was closed on Friday.

CHAIRMAN FRYER: No, I understand.
MR. YOVANOVICH: So as soon as we knew it, we got ahold of staff.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: There's some scrivening that's needed, and it seems to me
that you had enough time to do the scrivening so that we could have gone ahead today or,
if not, we could have had a hearing today, and if we approved the PUD and the GMP with
the concept of language, we could have then brought it back on consent.
MR. YOVANOVICH: Well, the problem is the ordinance that was advertised to
the public didn't have the complete GMP text.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: And that's --
MR. YOVANOVICH: That's what I was concerned about.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: That -- I was going to -- I was about to say that. And
that's what tilted it for me.
So I want to hear from staff before we deliberate up here.
MR. BOSI: Mike Bosi, Planning and Zoning director.
I mean, that was accurate. I did have the conversation with Mr. Yovanovich
on -- late Thursday. We did receive it on Friday. We were closed. It was forwarded to
the Planning Commission from -- and from that perspective, staff does appreciate the
ability to have the time to get all the documents correct as agreed to, and then -- so what
you'll be hearing when you hear this item, whenever that date would be, you know, it's
going to be what's contained within the ordinance, within the GMP and within the PUD.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Any members of the public here who came in
order to speak on this matter, please raise your hand. There's one. All right -- two, three.
Okay. What we're going to do is we're going to give the public speakers an
opportunity to speak now if they wish or to come back on the day that this is rescheduled
to but not both. If you want to speak, you can take your choice. My recommendation is
is that if you can come back, you do so, because it would be more fresh in our minds what
your comments were. But we'll find out about that after we have a discussion up here.
And so I'll open it up for discussion. And first to Commissioner Vernon.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: Yeah. I just want to give a historical perspective.
In my recollection of how this rule came about is because we became frustrated. We were
reading hundreds of pages. Members of the public were showing up. And I think it came
to a head. I don't think it was Rich; it was another land-use attorney kind of gave a
last-minute request for continuance and then didn't show up just assuming it was going to
be continued, which is fair on their part because there was no rule.
So I think that Paul's pointed out, the rules probably need some adjustment, and
that's fairly typical. You know, you make a rule, and then you see, well, it's not quite
working, so we probably need to adjust the rule.
But my recollection is I'm the one who pushed for a rule because, you know, if
we're in a courtroom and there's rules, then everybody knows what to follow. And the
problem was we just didn't have much consistency. We'd kind of gripe about it and then
let it happen. And I think the rule is big progress. I did sort of -- in my mind, I noted that
we -- I got an email a few days before. Candidly, I didn't get a chance to look at it
because I was working. But I said, wow, the rule's kind of working, you know.
It's -- so I feel like we're making progress. I think we need to make a little more
progress. And the land-use community is so small that everybody who works in this
county should be aware of it. You know, folks who -- like Rich, as long as they know

what the rule is, I think they can comply with it. And, frankly, if you're coming in from
out of town, it's your duty to learn the rules. And if you don't know them, that's your
problem.
And I think once we get the rule kind of just the way we want it, we just enforce it.
And we always have the discretion to change our minds, but I don't think we should feel
bad about enforcing the rules once it's settled on what it is and once, you know, people get
used to it. So that's my thought.
I don't have any problem with continuing it today, although it bothers me that
members of the public showed up. That's -- and that's one thing that frustrated us. It
wasn't fair for them to take off work and then have to come back.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, if we do continue this, it will be my
recommendation that we allow the members of the public to speak either today or when
this is rescheduled, but not both times. And if they do want to speak today, we could ask
that the transcript of their comments be included in the staff report when it comes to us
next time, presumably in February. We can talk about all of that.
All right. Commissioner Shea.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: I don't have a problem, but I'm going to -- with Rich's
proposal. I do have a process problem, the same one that Chris is talking about. And it's
not going to go away, and I don't know if there's a legal -- I mean, it just makes absolutely
no sense that we can't -- everybody has to show up in anticipation of maybe we will or
maybe we won't continue it. Process-wise, it makes no sense. We should have some way
of knowing or allowing a granting of a continuance ahead of time; otherwise, you kind of
defeat the whole purpose, and you create more chaos than if we just proceeded with it
sometimes.
To me, it's not a good process that everybody has to show up and wait for this
group to decide when probably most of the time it wouldn't come to us unless it probably
met the criteria.
I mean, Mr. Bosi wouldn't put it forward as a request if he didn't think it met our
criteria but, yet, still they don't have a definite yes or no until they come here. And I
think -- I don't know what we can do about it, but it makes no process sense to me at all.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, I have a suggestion, but I'm going to hold onto it
until we act upon this request.
Commissioner Vernon.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: Yeah. And I don't know whether we want to or
need to solve it today. I definitely would like to have it on the agenda if we don't solve it
today. But just brainstorming, I don't know that this can be delegated to the staff and -- or
delegated to the staff and the Chair to make the decision so that you don't have really
expensive experts and lawyers showing up just to say, hey, I wrote you about the
continuance. Can we have the continuance?
I don't know that that's legal, but, if so -- you know, and I would say that the -- I
don't know how you deal with the discretion, but once we get the rule settled on, the
default should be that it's denied unless there really is good cause or it's due to a mistake by
the county as opposed to the applicant. I don't know -- I don't know whether that's even
legal, but that may solve Paul's problem.
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: Yeah. I mean, staff's going to administer this however
you'd like it to be administered. I can tell you that Mr. Yovanovich did give me a call, I

think it was last week, about the omission of the text regarding the open space in the GMP,
and he told me that he was going to request a continuance.
And I forgot about the issue being the omission, Mr. Fryer, when we spoke
yesterday. So I agreed with Rich that I thought that was the best way for the record to be
clear.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: And it sounds like that is -- the rule is working the
way it's supposed to with respect to this particular applicant. And the only problem that
Paul raised is, well, the applicant still doesn't know, and they have to show up; the public
has to show up. How do we fix that?
COMMISSIONER SHEA: We have to show up.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: And the closest thing I can think is to delegate it to
the staff to make that decision.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yes, it happens --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Exactly.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: -- that was -- that was what I was going to propose.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: Oh, okay.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: But let's -- in fairness to this applicant, let's act on this
request and perhaps take up the potential amendment of our resolution under new business
if we want to talk more about it today.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Sounds good.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Does that make sense? Okay. That's what we'll do.
All right. Any further discussion on the request for continuance?
COMMISSIONER SHEA: This is for 9A1 and 9A2?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: 9A1 and 9A2, yeah. And, again, let me clarify with staff
so that I haven't -- I'm not making a mistake. Am I correct that the first convenient date
that's not jammed up is February 1?
MR. BOSI: Mike Bosi, Planning and Zoning director, again.
On the 4th of January, we have the three Fiddler Creek petitions. We anticipate
that to be a pretty demanding day.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: No doubt.
MR. BOSI: And then we have -- on the 18th we have five individual petitions.
We have -- right now we have -- we have zero petitions on the 20 -- or February 1st.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Now -- all right. So unless there are further
questions or comments, I'm going to go ahead and make a motion, if I may, and that is to
grant the continuance to February -- well, first to establish a finding of good cause as
required under the resolution and, based upon that finding, to grant a continuance of both
of these matters, the GMP and the PUD, to February 1. Is that -- would that be
satisfactory, Mr. Yovanovich, to your client?
MR. YOVANOVICH: I'm going to -- the answer is -- can I ask you to just say to
the next available date, which currently now is February 1st?
During my discussions with Mr. Bosi about this continuance, he enlightened me
about some comments that are coming my way on the Fiddler's Creek matter, which I
haven't discussed with my client yet, and I would hate to end up continuing that while
we're still talking, and then all of a sudden that date became an available date for the
hearing. So that's my only -- I'll do whatever you request. I just wanted to kind of give
you a heads-up. It may be a sooner date based upon what Mike just said as far as

scheduled hearings.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: We're not trying to preclude that if that makes the most
sense for everybody, but at the present time it doesn't look like it's going to. But,
certainly, if it turns out that it is and you can get the advertising out -- Mr. Bosi.
MR. BOSI: I was going to say, we have until -- for the -- the 4th, the advertising
deadline is today.
MR. YOVANOVICH: For the 4th?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: For February?
MR. YOVANOVICH: For January?
MR. BOSI: Oh, I'm sorry. It's December. I'm sorry. It's December 5th is the
advertising deadline. So we've got two weeks --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, as long as there's an understanding and an
acceptance on the part of the applicant that the probability is this is going to go on
February 1st unless all other factors align in a way that makes it convenient for all
concerned.
MR. YOVANOVICH: We understand that it may -- it may not happen until
February 1st.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. And, in fact, it may not happen February 1st.
Probably will.
MR. YOVANOVICH: If you guys take the day off.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, I mean, what if we don't get a quorum?
MR. YOVANOVICH: I know. I understand.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: It may not; it probably will. That's as much as I can say.
All right. Any other comments before we vote? I made a motion. Is there a
second?
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Second.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Any further discussion?
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Mr. Chairman?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yes. Go ahead, Commissioner Klucik.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Yes. I would just like to say I realize, you know,
the problem that's posed, and I realize there's probably not a great solution, but I just want
to make note that, you know, ultimately, it's the residents or citizens in the community that
have a stake, that are neighbors or -- somehow will be affected.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, your point --
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: -- (unintelligible) by whatever petition is requesting
the continuance. They're the ones -- they're the ones that are harmed regardless of how we
proceed, because if we're reasonable -- I mean, the reason we wanted everybody to show
up, in case we say no, is to make sure, you know, that we're in charge as a commission and
that we get to actually have a meaningful decision --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Exactly.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: -- and whether to grant the continuance.
Ultimately, this system is -- you know, it just -- it's not -- I think we need to make
sure that we're just as lenient to -- you know, to the people in community who want, you
know, to participate in the hearings. And I don't know as, you know, there's a way to
improve that, but it seems like they're the ones getting the shaft. And, obviously, I think it
rubs us all the wrong --

COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: And I just want to emphasize that. You know
what, I'll switch -- that's fine. I'll switch to a different audio.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you.
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Don't worry about it for this.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you very much.
I think I need to amend my own motion or request an amendment of my own
motion to include that we give the members of the public who are here to speak on this
their choice of either speaking on it today or speaking on it when this matter is resumed.
May I have a second to my proposal to amend my own motion?

CHAIRMAN FRYER: Further discussion?

the motion -- please say aye.

The members of the public, who would -- who would like to -- who would like to
speak today? We have one person -- two. Oh, yeah. Two people would like to speak
today. All right. Well, this was clumsy on my part, and I apologize to all.
Without objection from the applicant, without objection from the Planning
Commission, we will -- well, I guess that the continuance can still stand because we've
provided for hearing the people who want to be heard today, so that's what we'll do.
All right. So have the two of you registered? All right. You probably haven't

been sworn in yet. So let's ask you to rise and be sworn in by the court reporter.
THE COURT REPORTER: Do you swear or affirm the testimony you will give
will be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?
(The speakers were duly sworn and indicated in the affirmative.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Disclosures starting with Ms. Lockhart, please.
MS. LOCKHART: Text materials only.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: No disclosures.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: No disclosures.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. I have had conversations with applicant's
representatives and with the staff and matters of public record.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Text materials and email correspondence
with residents surrounding the property.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. All right. So the way this is going to --
I'm sorry, Court Reporter.
THE COURT REPORTER: Robb?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, yeah, thank you.
Commissioner Klucik, disclosures, please, sir.
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: We'll catch him when he comes back.
All right. So I think the way this is going to go down in history, or should, is that
we will begin hearing this today, but no one -- no one from the applicant's side or the staff
are required to present any part of their case. If they want to reply to something that a
member of the public says, I think they can, but they're not -- they don't have to put all
their cards on the table today. When this comes back, they can start afresh, and if we have
three speakers today, we'll probably be attaching the transcript of their comments to the
staff report so everybody has it.
All right. Who's the first registered speaker, please?
MR. SABO: Mr. Chairman, these two speakers are State Road 846.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. So they're -- all right. Well, we haven't called
that one yet. I thought I was clear. Maybe I wasn't.

today on JLM. That matter's been continued, and we will call the next matter.
MR. BELLOWS: ***Okay. The next item for continuance is 9A4, which is
PL20220006213. It's the SR846 Land Trust Earth Mine.

COMMISSIONER VERNON: Mr. Chairman?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yes, Commissioner Vernon.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: If I could bring up one procedural matter.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Please.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: I usually turn off my phone before we start, and
then I can't check my calendar. And I purposely left it on so that we could chat about the
next meeting and availability.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: So do you want to do that before I turn off my
phone so we see if we have a quorum?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Sure, yeah. Our next -- let me get back to my cheat sheet
here.

it, so...

going to be on December 7; is that correct? Yeah, December 7th, Pearl Harbor Day.
Anyone know --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: That's a double meeting, isn't it, a 3 and a 5?
MR. BOSI: Correct.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yes. Does anyone know if he or she cannot be at that
meeting?

I'll be out of town.

COMMISSIONER SHEA: There's a 3 -- well, on my notes it's to start at 3 and
then 5 for the after-5 content.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah, we've got an evening meeting.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: Yeah, I don't know whether I can make it.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: You can be an "I don't know" for now.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: I don't know.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Anybody else?

CHAIRMAN FRYER: Commissioner Klucik, you okay on that date,
December 7?
COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: Yes.

December 21, 2023, meeting has been canceled, so that will take us into January, and we'll
poll on that on December 7.

MR. BELLOWS: That was Agenda Item 9A4. I read the petition number. Do
you want the full title?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: No. No, that's fine. I'm not going to give the same
introduction, because it applies exactly, unless the Planning Commission wants to hear it
again. But I think -- I think we're all primed now to know what we need to do, and so I'll
ask -- it's Mr. Arnold or another representative who's going to come up and make the case

of good cause.
MR. ARNOLD: Thank you. Good morning. Wayne Arnold here, for the
record, with Grady Minor & Associates.
So we had -- we represent the applicant for the 846 mine. Staff is recommending
approval; however, on Monday of this week we received an email from your
Transportation Planning staff asking us to agree to a new commitment to show a road
reservation across this property. And we've had some dialogue back and forth with
Mr. Sawyer and Ms. Lantz regarding that project. And then, in fact, last night we received
another request to modify and add additional language.
And in conferring with Mr. Yovanovich, our counsel, and our client, they're not
comfortable agreeing to that until we can sit down and talk to staff regarding this new
request.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you.
MR. ARNOLD: Yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: And you heard -- you were here, of course, when the other
applicant was at the dais. And I just want to be sure that your client understands that he
could have gone forward today. I understand your reason, and we'll talk about good cause
in a moment. But yours is also probably going to go to February 1.
MR. ARNOLD: We understand, yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: And I want to be sure that you understand and you agree
to that.
MR. ARNOLD: Yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you very much.
All right. The subject -- Mr. Bosi.
MR. BOSI: Yeah, I did want to -- Mike Bosi, Planning and Zoning director.
I wanted to put on the record for the 9A1, 9A2, and 9A4, the ones that are
requesting the continuance, whether they fall upon the January 4th meeting or whether it
be the February 1st meeting, new public notices will have to be provided, and the items
will have to be readvertised as well. So I just wanted to put that on the record.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. And there are costs, as the applicants, I'm sure,
know. I think it's $500. And also additional costs of advertising and related costs.
Okay, thank you.
So where does that take us?
COMMISSIONER SHEA: We have to vote on that.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, yeah, we do. Discussion of this request? Mr. Bosi.
MR. BOSI: And just to remind the Chair, I do believe we had two individuals that
did want to speak to this today if you do grant the continuance.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you very much for reminding. Any other -- any
comments on good cause?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. I would -- I'm prepared to accept the explanation
as good cause. Having said that now, we know that we do have two members of the
public who are to be given the choice of either speaking now or waiting until the matter
comes up again, presumably February 1st.
Members of the public, if you want to speak today, please raise your hand. Okay.
They both are raising their hands, and so we will hear from them. And I'll call the matter.

And you do understand that you will not be invited to speak again a second time, so this
is -- this will be it for you. And also applicant understands that we're not waiving. We
don't -- we don't consider this to be a waiver of any part of your case; that you would start
from the beginning.

minutes.
MR. DIXON: All right, sir.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Correction, five minutes.
MR. DIXON: I appreciate it. Thank you.
Robert Dixon. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
So I prepared pretty much a statement, because I know we're on a time frame here.
I usually like to just ad lib, but -- so we're talking about the land trust mine. The State of
Florida's allowable blast limit peak particle velocity, which is abbreviated PPV -- and
you'll see that in a bit -- as I've been told, is a value of 1. Collier County set their PPV
limit at .5, which is half of what State of Florida allows. That's great.
The recordings in the recent blasts, I have been told by the blasting company, the
PPV has been well below even the allowable .5.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: I'm so sorry to interrupt. I must be screwed up
here. I thought we were talking about Union Road, the 109 units.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: No.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: No, no. This is the second continuance.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: We're going to hear that in its entirety.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: My apologies for interrupting.
MR. DIXON: No, no problem.
So at this point everything looks great on paper. Quality Enterprises is the
company that's in charge of blasting, is following Collier County code, but the reality is
that homeowners are experiencing structural damage to their homes specifically on the
blast that took place on 9/14/23 at 1:02 p.m.
So if the state gives allowable limit of 1, county adopted .5, they're blasting well
below the Collier County adopted limit, everything looks great on paper, but the reality is
is we are suffering damages to our houses. I've got over 12 to 15 cracks in my house from
the September 14th blast.
So moving on. Barry Blankenship, he's the representative for Quality insurance,
came out on 9/29/23 to some of the homeowners' residences to evaluate the damage that
was caused by the 9/14 blast. My house -- excuse me. My house alone sustained over a
dozen cracks by itself.
Barry Blankenship came out to my house. He acknowledged the damage and
stated, future blasts, he's going to reconfigure the blast and use smaller amounts to prevent
any further damage to our houses, which he did follow through with on the 9/29/23 blast
and the most recent one as of yesterday, which made a big difference.
QE blasted with less explosives and blasted from the direction south to north, first
north to south, which was done on the 9/14/23 blast.
So it's a long sequence of blasts that has to start in one direction, ends in another
direction, and the 9/14 blast, they started from north, and they shot it south where all the
houses are. Everything north, there's no houses. So that was probably a really big
mistake on their part for the 9/14 blast.
Barry stated not to fix any of the existing damage and see if it gets any worse after
he continues to reconfigure the blast and the amount of explosives.
Barry stated to my neighbor, Harold Hoosman (phonetic), which actually -- excuse
me -- which is here, and I that once we establish that no more damage will be incurred
from the future blasts, that he will arrange restitution on how the damage will be corrected.
5.B.a
Packet Pg. 67 Attachment: 11-16-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27365 : 11/16/2023 CCPC Meeting minutes)
November 16, 2023
Page 15 of 31
Barry also installed a seismic monitor on my neighbor's property, Harold's, next
door to monitor future blasts. Barry was very sincere, and he seemed committed to do his
best to prevent any further damage from taking place in the future, which was great news,
and he has to date. But I want to emphasize that Barry also stated that he's doing this on a
voluntary basis only and that QE is operating under Collier County code. Barry also
stated that they incur a minimum charge per blast, meaning QE is paying for a minimum of
200 blast holes even if they only blast 100 holes.
So the fear is although Barry's good faith seems to be sincere, you know, money
talks; they are a business.
The previous approved allowable .5 PPV limit is way too high, and the allowable
limit needs to be significantly reduced and made to code. We are already experiencing
damage to structures now, and we're not even close to the .5 PPV. We cannot and should
not rely solely on blasting companies to just practice under a voluntary basis. What
happens if they decide that it's no longer convenient or cost effective to work under a
voluntary basis, or another company comes in or the representative no longer works for
that company, and now we're starting all over again?
If QE were to blast anywhere near the .5 PPV, it would destroy thousands of
structures, making them unsafe and inhabitable, displacing thousands of Collier County
residents. We are already facing a housing crisis here in Collier County, and this would
be catastrophic.
My closing comments is it's imperative that Collier County Commissioners and
staff recognize the potential disaster of future blasts if these blast protocols are not
reevaluated and allowed to go unchecked.
So we ask to please help and protect us and put more stringent rules in place to
prevent any further damage. You know, if they go to their .5 and they've, like, gone even
less than half that at times -- I -- literally, I've already sent pictures in to Eric Ortman.
He's seen everything. Barry's come out; he's acknowledged the damage. It's clearly from
the blast. He said he's going to fix it, which is great. I'm hoping they're all superficial.
He said he's going to keep moving in the right direction, which he's been doing.
Yesterday's blast, it was regular rumble; no problem. The blast they did on 9/29,
which he said he was going to reevaluate, was the regular rumble. But that 9/14 specific
blast, our house felt like a pirate ship out on the open sea. I mean, it rocked like there was
no tomorrow.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: All right, sir. Thank you.
Commissioner Shea has a question or comment.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Just -- sir, just to understand better, do they have the
PP -- peak particle velocity measurement device near your house running continuously or
just occasionally they do a test?
MR. DIXON: Well, I'm not -- he set it up permanently. He never had one in our
direction. It was always in every other direction but ours.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: But is it by your house?
MR. DIXON: It's literally on Harold's property.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: So it's by your house, yeah.
MR. DIXON: Now, he installed that --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: And he monitors continuously?
MR. DIXON: As far as I know. I don't know exactly how it works, but it's there

24/7 with a solar panel, and I'm assuming it's taking readings. And the big problem with
the readings is is they're well under, but I don't know if we're on a fault line or if
there's -- there's definitely something wrong, which it caused damage to the house without
a doubt. And if it was to continue, it would make the structures unsound and inhabitable.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you, sir.
Next speaker.
MR. GARCIA: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. My name is Carlos Garcia.
I'm here to reinforce everything Mr. Dixon just talked about. I've lived at this
address for 21 years. Mr. Dixon owns two properties on the street, and I own five on the
same street.
I have gone through this entire scenario before the other neighbors have. They've
actually set up a seismic monitor on my property for one blast, and I never heard a
response back from the company.
My house has difficulties opening windows because of the angle of the window.
We have tenting on the tiles, on the floor tiles. We have significant cracks in the stucco
and the CBS block.
And I want to back up a little bit and give you a little bit of history on who I am and
what I know. I'm 100 percent familiar with Dyno Nobel. Dyno Nobel provides the
explosive emulsifier for these blasts when the holes are dug, okay.
In my chosen career path as an explosive expert with the military, I understand how
it works. I've actually done, to say, a field trip, per se, at Dyno Nobel with my profession.
We've experienced exactly how they work and how everything happens.
These companies are out here exploding or imploding land and dirt for a fee. Like
Mr. Dixon said earlier, it's about money. Unfortunately, many of us have been there many
years, and we're sustaining damage to our homes as well, okay.
I don't think it's fair. I've already spoken, before we've even got to this far, with
Mr. Dixon and the other neighbors where now the neighborhood is more inhabited.
There's a lot more homes going up now, and there's a lot more people complaining.
I'm not here to ask them to stop their operation. I'm not asking that. I understand
they have to do business, but what's on paper makes no sense with what's actually
happening on the ground.
One thing is what you put on a piece of paper and feel that that's an allowable limit,
and another thing is reality, what's really happening and what we're really experiencing and
feeling. It's not normal for a house that's built with the South Florida building code to
experience that kind of shaking and rattling. We're talking about significant movement
and shifting. We're talking about damage to our homes.
I actually had people come over -- from these companies come over and evaluate
the damage. They took pictures of the tile. They saw it. They're aware of it. They
know it. This is our second runaround. This is my second runaround with this -- this
issue.
I'm requesting -- I'm here to request that we examine or evaluate the amount of
allowable limits and the direction of the blast. When they changed the direction of the
blast, we had almost no recognition of what was going on. It didn't even -- we didn't even
feel it. It wasn't bad. But the last blast that they did that Mr. Dixon was talking about, it
violently shook our home, and that's not common of concrete and rebar. It shouldn't be
happening.

So we're not new to the neighborhood. We're not new people. We're, like I said,
21 years in this county. I understand how things work. We're here full time. We're
full-time residents and voters in this county. I don't think it's right, and I'm here to
reinforce everything that was being said here and just take -- you know, with a grain of
salt, just understand that there are the way things are and the way things should be.
One thing is what you see on paper, and it looks very good and scientific and
perfect, but that's not the reality. Reality is in a whole 'nother ballpark.
So if we can please, to reiterate what I just said earlier, I encourage you to go out
there; take a look at it. I don't know if you guys get field time. Go out there and take a
look and see what's going on. Go out there during the blast and see how high that rock
flies out there. I mean, this is a big operation. And, you know, that's -- I just want you to
be aware of it. Maybe you're not aware of what's going on. But it's our homes; it's our
property. It's a lot of money of property. It's not just one house. It's several properties.
Okay. Thank you for your time.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you, sir.
Commissioner Shea.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Question, sir.
MR. GARCIA: Yes.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: I just wanted to make sure I understood.
MR. GARCIA: Yes.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: When they changed the direction, were they below the
.5?
MR. GARCIA: When they changed the direction --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: When they changed the direction of the blast away
from the residence.
MR. GARCIA: That's a great question.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: They met the .5?
MR. GARCIA: That's a great question.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: You don't know?
MR. GARCIA: Now, for me as a -- you're right. For me as a constituent, how
would I know? I wouldn't -- I wouldn't know. And then there is no seismic machine on
my property, and I'm at -- so it's important to note that I am at the very end of the property
[sic]. Our house is at the very end of the street, the last property.
So, you know, as a constituent, we don't know. We take their word for it, and then
when we called the county and said, hey, you know, what's going on? They're blasting
again. The gentleman that answers the phone is like, well, we didn't know nothing about
this. So now it's just a big runaround, like a big circle. So it feels to us like they have a
liaison, and we don't have anyone. So we're here because we're hoping that you can help
us, because nobody else is.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: All right, sir. Thank you very much.
MR. GARCIA: Thank you. Have a good day.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
Mr. Arnold, do you want to say anything, you or Mr. Yovanovich, at this time?
You don't have to.
MR. ARNOLD: No, sir. I think we're fine. The comments were understood,
and as he indicated, we've had folks on site, and we're looking into the matter.

CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. Did you signal again?
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Yes.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Go ahead, Commissioner Shea.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: This is for Mike Bosi. When this comes up, I would
like to have somebody from the county here that can talk to the questions that this
gentleman had about measurements and county regulations. We really need to hear that at
this level, what the process normally is. It's only a comment.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Commissioner Schumacher.
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: I'll -- if I may, I'll address that for Mr. Bosi.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Go ahead.
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: The Florida Fire Marshal has exclusive jurisdiction over
the blasting activities. The county does, I believe, monitor it. I do not believe he has
delegated the authority for the regulation and enforcement to the county, but I'll verify that
before it comes back.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: We have a different standard than the state, so how do
we enforce ours if we --
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: I'm not sure what that's about because Section 552.30
does give that jurisdiction, and the county's preempted --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: I'd like --
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: -- unless it's been delegated.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: -- something clear -- explained before we go
through -- when we get to the next hearing, hopefully ahead of time, how the structure of
the regulatory part of it works, and what do citizens do -- what is their recourse? Who do
they call?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Mr. Bosi's nodding in the affirmative, so I assume that that
will be in the staff materials when --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Yeah. I don't need a discussion on it now, but I will
ask it later.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Commissioner Schumacher.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: I'm sorry. I didn't follow that. Did you
say it was the county fire marshal that has jurisdiction, or state?
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: State.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: So the state fire marshal has that, because I
believe the DEP is also involved when it comes to blasting permits. It requires time of
day, weather conditions, so on and so forth, correct?
MR. BOSI: I believe so. And we will have someone from the -- from our
engineering department who will be able to answer these questions when we hold -- when
we hear the matter.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Because the limited research I did online
with the DEP states that they have to make neighboring properties aware of what they're
doing and when they're going to do it.
So if somebody could be here to clarify that -- because I agree with Mr. Garcia that,
you know, they need an advocate on the county's side. But if the county doesn't have
jurisdiction and it goes through the state fire marshal, it's just layers upon layers of
bureaucracy, and we need to figure out a way to clean this up.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: True. Just as a reminder to ourselves, there are going to

be 37, 38 conditions, somewhere in that range, where we're going to have proactive input
into how the mining and blasting operations are conducted. So we'll -- that -- you know,
we'll have some involvement there.
Commissioner Vernon.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: I think -- I'm not sure, you may have just answered
my thought/question, Mr. Chairman. But I guess I'm just wondering -- I feel like I'm a
little out of my element. I ask the staff/legal if the -- it sounds like -- it sounds like to me
the applicant's trying to be a good neighbor.
And so my nightmare scenario, thinking down the road, what if the good neighbor
applicant sells the property, and the new owner feels very differently about being a good
neighbor. So I'm just wondering if the applicant and the neighbors get together and sort
of -- this is probably the wrong word -- codify or agree to what it sounds like the
applicant's already willing to do, and that becomes part of the application, and then that's
the -- that's the protocol, whether he sells it or not.
So I'm sure I'm using a lot of the wrong language, but do you -- Mike and you guys,
do you understand what I'm asking?
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: Yes, but Mr. Perry, who worked on this petition, did
advise me there is a condition about the vibration that occurs at the -- where is it. The
ground -- yeah. The ground vibration shall be allowed up to a not to exceed a calendar
monthly average of .20-inch per second. So that is a condition that currently exists. If
they're not complying with that, then it could be a code enforcement issue if a complaint is
filed.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Is that a county code issue, then?
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: Yes, as to -- because that's a current condition in the
conditional use.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: You said .2 PPV?
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: Yeah, .2. What did I say?
COMMISSIONER SHEA: I'm getting confused with 1, .5, and .2.
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: No, it wasn't PPV, sorry. What was it? I lost the page.
MR. PERRY: It's how much the ground can shake, essentially, on a monthly
average. I don't know -- there's --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Well, it's measured as PPV, the particle. It's got to
be --
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: I don't think so.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: I'd like to suggest, if I may, that we -- that we defer further
discussion on this because we haven't even heard the applicant's initial report and request.
And it's good that they had the opportunity to hear what some of our concerns are, but let's
not try to play out the whole thing on the merits yet.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Agreed.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. Mr. Arnold.
MR. ARNOLD: Mr. Chairman, I concur. When we have the full hearing, we'll
have our blasting expert here, seismologist here, as well as the mine operator.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you. Anything further from the Planning
Commission on this?

to enforcing our code. I just feel like -- that you've got an applicant trying to be a good

neighbor on the practical side as opposed to a bunch of numbers, as Mr. Garcia said.
And thank you for your service, sir.
That I'd rather see something that the neighbors think is good and the applicant
think is good rather than a bunch of numbers which are different than what's boots on the
ground, what's going on.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. I think we've well signaled the concerns we have
at this point, this very preliminary point, to both staff and the applicant, and we'll expect to
hear back -- Mr. Perry, did you want to say something?
MR. PERRY: There will be an opportunity when it comes back for a -- if the
applicant and staff choose, to have an amended document.

That's the introduction. Thank you, Mr. Fryer. This property is located in Port of
the Islands. It's approximately one mile north of U.S. 41. You can see the location here
on your screen.
To the north is the gun club, which is zoned conservation. To the west is also
zoned conservation protected lands. To the south is a residential development known as
Orchid Cove, and the project itself bisects a road known as Union Road, which is a road
owned by Port of the Islands. It's an independent special district that operates utilities
specific to this location of Collier County. And to the west is also conservation and a
canal. The total project acreage is approximately 51 acres, again, bisected by Union
Road.
The future land-use designation is urban mixed-use, and the current zoning is RT
residential. A small portion is also zoned conservation.
Importantly, and as noted in the staff report, the project, as a matter of right today,
allows for 16 dwelling units per acre in the RT zoned area, which equates to over 630 units
of density. This represents, as you can see by the proposed PUD zoning, which is a
downzone to single-family, approximately one-sixth of the acreage that's permitted as a
matter of right.
There's also a significant reduction in -- minimization, rather, in the development
standards, as you can see, as height, increase in buffers and, from the perspective of the
residents who we've been working with significantly through the course of this project,
compatibility of use by eliminating uses like hotel and transient lodging to just
single-family residential uses.
This is a depiction of the master plan. Again, bisecting Union Road. There is one
amenity tract within the project that's on the east side of Union Road. It's specifically
designated on the master plan and would have typical amenity uses that would be
complementary to the residential property; clubhouse, et cetera.
The PUD, as typical through a PUD, designates us permitted uses as to each tract,
the residential and amenity tract.
The proposed development standards are typical for single-family and -- both
attached and detached, as well as typical amenity area standards. The height for the
amenity area is the same as the height for the residential. So, again, that's a significant
reduction in zoned height. We provide here a few conceptual building elevations just to
give you a sense of how the project would look. We don't have a -- obviously, a fully
developed concept yet as to elevations, so this is conceptual.
The only -- excuse me. The only deviation which has received staff report is for
minimum roadway width within the project, and this is to -- this is very customary for
residential projects, and it's to facilitate a more compact development. The deviation is
from a 60 feet minimum width to 50 feet minimum width.
In conclusion, the project has received a recommendation of staff approval. The
traffic study and TIS -- sorry -- submitted with this application shows that the number of
trips would be approximately 108. That is obviously a substantial reduction to what the
number of trips would be under the current permitted zoning. In addition, the TIS
demonstrated that the adjacent roadway links have sufficient capacity to support this
project.
That's a quick summary of our presentation, and I open it up to any questions you
may have for me or any of the professionals.

Page 22 of 31
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you. No one is signaling quite yet. I've just got a
couple of questions or comments. First of all, with respect to the TIS, there is an
imperiled road segment, and that's 95.3 of the East Trail. It's at F with minus 113 capacity
left. But since this is a downzoning, the result is is that there will be fewer automobiles
and other motor vehicles on the roads than there would have under the current zoning, so...
MS. PASSIDOMO: And I also believe that that -- that was based on a trip count
that will be -- the staff report notes that's based on a trip count that will be more properly
reflected in updates. So it's obviously a state road, so we'd be working with -- the county
would be working with Florida Department of Transportation to make sure that that
grading of that roadway segment is correctly reflected in the future. But, of course, this is
a significant downzoning as well.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you.
Then a question, and that is, how will notice be brought home to the purchasing
residents that there is a gun club north of there?
MS. PASSIDOMO: As a matter of fact, with the closing with the Port of the
Islands development, we worked with the gun club to ensure their access was retained. So
we actually granted the gun club a specific access easement through the property. And in
conjunction with that access easement, we provided, at the gun club's request but also
prudency for our own end-users to your point, we provide notice specific in the document.
So it will be a matter of record that this project abuts a gun club to the north.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Is the plan that that notice will find its way into a deed?
MS. PASSIDOMO: Well, it is a matter of title, so it's reflected in public record.
When we're crafting the homeowners association documents, that's --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay.
MS. PASSIDOMO: -- some time from now, but perhaps we incorporate it. That
would be -- that would be in our interest, too.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. So the HOA documents, which are filed for
record, that's how it gets to be a matter of public record?
MS. PASSIDOMO: Well, it already at this time is. But if you're asking whether
it would be incorporated into some other future documents -- so it's already a matter of
record at this point in time.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. That's all I need to know. Thank you.
Commissioner Vernon.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: Aren't there two gun clubs there?
MS. PASSIDOMO: There's a gun club to the north, excuse me, and that is all I'm
personally aware of. So just right there north of the yellow line, that's the gun club which
I believe Mr. Fryer was speaking to.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. I can elaborate a little bit. I'm not sure whether
there are two ownerships, but there is a clay pigeon shotgun course with, you know, a high
house and a low house, and then there's a long-distance rifle and the short distance pistol
course a little farther north.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: In the back?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah, farther north of the --
COMMISSIONER VERNON: Are those common ownership?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: I don't know.
MS. PASSIDOMO: We only worked with one owner of the gun club in the access

easement, so my presumption would be there's a single entity owner.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: Okay.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Any other questions or comments?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Is that all you have right now?
MS. PASSIDOMO: It is, and I apologize for the start, but I appreciate your

CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, we'll find out.
MS. PASSIDOMO: Not in the -- not based on the record in front of you --
COMMISSIONER VERNON: So you're not aware of --
MS. PASSIDOMO: -- or in the correspondence.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: You're not aware of any?
MS. PASSIDOMO: I personally can speak to that we've worked extensively with
the district through this process. So it would be my expectation that we're all holding
hands at this point.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, since Commissioner Vernon's asking the question,
let me take the initiative to ask, if there's anyone in the audience who wishes to be heard in
this matter as a member of the public, please raise your hand.
(No response.)

COMMISSIONER SHEA: Don't we hear from Mike first?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, yeah, yeah. But I just was -- he asked, you know,
whether there would be public comment, and so I wanted to get an answer to him. But
we're -- yeah, we're ready to go. Assuming the applicant's finished, we'll now turn to staff
and have staff's report.
Go ahead, sir.
MR. BOSI: Mike Bosi, Planning and Zoning director.
As indicated within the staff report, from our analysis of the Growth Management
Plan and the Land Development Code and the Concurrency Management System, staff is
recommending approval.
I do believe that we have received one comment not of support of the proposal.
The person who provided it lives on the south side of Port of the Islands, and they
indicated that they moved there for its rural character and low density, and they wanted to
keep it that way.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Thank you.
Commissioner Shea.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: More of an educational question. I probably should
know the answer, but it seems like everything around it is zoned conservation. What does
that mean?

MR. BOSI: It means there is no development scheduled or permitted within that
area.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: So why -- why was this approved in the middle of a
conservation area? This is a historical thing. I'm not -- it has nothing to do with the
application, so...
MR. BOSI: This is a settlement that dates back well before my time with the
county back, I believe, to the '80s. The future land-use designation carves out this area
that's being rezoned as urban residential. All the rest is conservation.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Okay.
MR. BOSI: It's an exception.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Anything further from staff?
MR. BOSI: Nothing from staff.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. We have -- oh, Commissioner Vernon.

CHAIRMAN FRYER: Kathryn Kehlmeier.
MS. KEHLMEIER: I'm here. Can you hear me?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yes, ma'am, now we can.
MS. KEHLMEIER: Thank you so very much.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yes. You have five minutes.
MS. KEHLMEIER: Thank you so very much for hearing me. I would just like to
show my support for Mr. Case's plan for the 109 single-family homes on what the CID
calls as Parcel 13 and what you used to be the old dormitory.
I think the single-family homes will be a better fit for the new construction that has
been going on the south side of 41 and also, if it was to remain RT, when the property was
up for sale, we had numerous interest in putting in a motorcoach resort, which would bring
300 pads, possibly, to that 50 acres back there.
So in my opinion -- and I would appreciate the Commission going ahead and
approving the zoning change to the residential; better fit for Port of the Islands, better use
of the land, and that's all I have to say, and thank you so very much for the time.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Thank you, ma'am.

CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, okay, yeah.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Just confirming, this site is not on septic; it has a
public wastewater facility that goes -- that's built into the project, or are they all on septics
and wells?
MR. BOSI: I believe the proposal will be for an eventual connection to the
existing utility that the Port of the Island provides.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: That's what I thought I read. Okay. Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Any other public comment registered? If not,
any -- Commissioner Vernon.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: No. I just wanted to wrap up by saying I really,
Ms. Passidomo, appreciate the conciseness of your presentation and your preparation and
ability to answer the questions, and it's nice to see a new face rather than the same old
guys. So thank you. Look forward to seeing you again soon.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: I agree completely with that. Thank you.
MS. PASSIDOMO: No slight.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Let's see. So we'll close -- no. Anybody else in the room
want to be heard on this?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Seeing no hands up, we'll close the public comment
segment of this hearing, and the matter falls to us to deliberate.
There is no EAC vote because the property's already been cleared. So what do I
hear? Commissioner Schumacher.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Thank you, Chair.
Ms. Passidomo, thank you for your presentation. I think as you pointed out, you're
going to 2.1 dwelling units per acre, which it could be at 630. So I think -- I think it's a
no-brainer. I think it's -- I'll make the motion to approve as presented.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: I'll second.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: All right. Is there any further discussion?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: I didn't ask you if you had any rebuttal, but I don't think
you do, do you?
MS. PASSIDOMO: I don't. I just -- I just respectfully request your
recommendation of approval. And just factually, to Mr. Bosi's point, we have worked
with the POI to reserve utility hookup. So it will be on -- eventually on actual sewer and
water.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. So this is an RPUDZ, and it's been moved and
seconded to approve for recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners. Any
further discussion?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: If not, all those in favor, please say aye.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: Aye.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Aye.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Aye.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Aye.

CHAIRMAN FRYER: Opposed?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: It passes unanimously.
Many thanks to Ms. Passidomo, applicant team, staff.
Mr. Bosi.
MR. BOSI: It just came to my attention -- Mr. Bellows reminded -- I don't believe
that we approved the minutes that were before you at the beginning.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: We sure didn't. Thank you.
MR. BOSI: As well as -- and I wanted to know if -- does the Planning
Commission, after your approval of minutes, do you want to talk a little bit about potential
modifications to the continuance policy under new business?
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yes. Thank you for reminding me on that as well. I
appreciate that.
THE COURT REPORTER: Chair, I didn't hear Mr. Klucik vote, if you could just
ask him.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: You didn't hear Mr. Bosi?
THE COURT REPORTER: Mr. Klucik.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: No, Mr. Klucik vote.
THE COURT REPORTER: I didn't hear his vote.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Oh, we haven't --

CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah, but she's got to hear him.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: She's got better ears.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah. You might want to put "inaudible" in. It's not
going to matter.
Yeah. Okay. We have two sets of minutes before us this morning for action.
First for the October 5 meeting and then the October 19 meeting. Is there any need to
vote on these separately?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: If not, I'd entertain a motion to approve both sets of
minutes. Is there such a motion?
COMMISSIONER SHEA: So moved.

COMMISSIONER KLUCIK: And the one -- well, those two votes plus the prior
one.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay, good. We've got -- it will show that, then. Thank
you.
***All right. So that concludes our hearings for today, and it takes us to old
business. And, you know, I guess we could call this old business. It really doesn't
matter, but the question is, is do we want to polish up our Resolution 2023-01? And one
of the -- one of the thoughts I had would be that we would be authorized or we could
delegate to staff with specific criteria, and the specific criteria we might want to make
more clear and more detailed than the ones we have here, to grant the continuance on our
behalf with or without consulting with me.
It was mentioned that that would be one approach. That's fine if you think it's
necessary. It doesn't matter to me one way or the other. But that way we would -- and,
certainly, if a matter is continued without our action, we would want to know that
immediately so that we don't have to spend time on the matter.
So it -- it would behoove the applicant, if they're really wanting to see a
continuance, to get that request in soon enough so that we can prevent people from having
to work the weekend before our Thursday meeting on a matter that's not going to be heard.
So do we want to have -- Commissioner Schumacher.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: I think that it would be appropriate for
Mike to, in essence, make that decision and bring it to you and say, these are the reasons
for the continuance, and you as the Chair say, yes, I think that's appropriate. I think that at
that time if there's a discord and you don't -- and you disagree with the staff's
recommendation for a continuance, I think that's the only time it should come before us.
But I think nine out of 10 times Mr. Bosi's going to be, like, there's a reason for a
continuance, it's a correct reason. It's not like they just aren't ready to go. It's -- there's
something factual there, and we should --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: -- move forward in that manner.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. We could -- I'd entertain a motion for staff,
working with the County Attorney's Office, to revise our resolution to incorporate the
comments that would involve staff making the decision. And we want you -- we want
you to draft more explicit criteria for you to follow than the ones that are in here. There

are three different ones. But think it through and see if you can tighten it up a little bit to
squeeze the subjectivity as much as possible out of it, and then I believe it's the consensus
of the Planning Commission that you and I would then consult over that. And if we agree,
then it would be considered a continuance.
Mr. Bosi.
MR. BOSI: And not -- and I agree that would be an improvement, and staff will
definitely take that action and bring you back something that follows that accord.
The one thing that we will not be able to address, and I just don't know how to do
it, our advertising is 20 days before our hearing, so that's -- that horse is out of the barn 20
days, and most times we don't get -- if we get a continuance request prior to 20 days, we
pull the ad.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah.
MR. BOSI: So once it's advertised, I have no idea how that we can -- when I
get -- when I get it a week before --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: You can't. You can't.
MR. BOSI: -- I don't know what I can do to notify the public because --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: We can't. But the fail-safe, the stopgap here for the
public is that if we have people show up and want to be heard on the day in question, we'll
hear them. And we're going to incorporate those comments into the transcript. So that's,
I think, about as much as we can do.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: But you publish the agenda package on the web page.
You could update it. At least go there the day before, check and see if the agenda's been
revised.
MR. BOSI: We did update -- we did update this agenda to give a note that these
items were being continued.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: Okay.
MR. BOSI: Yes. It was only --
COMMISSIONER SHEA: That's probably the best that you can do.
MR. BOSI: Yeah.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yeah, I think so.
MR. BOSI: Okay.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: All right. So it's been moved. Was there a second? I
don't recall. Oh, Commissioner Vernon, did you want to be heard first?
COMMISSIONER VERNON: Yeah, yeah. I just -- I guess my thought -- and it's
never going to be perfect, and I don't think it needs to be perfect. We're just trying to
deter this careless last-minute throw at, hey, we're not going to be there. So it seems to
me, however we tighten the rule up and pull the subjectivity out of it, as the Chairman
suggested, I think that if they don't follow the rules, the staff should deny it. And then if
it's legal, then -- if it's denied, allow the Chairman to exercise his discretion without
communicating with us to override that. Because if it's -- if every time somebody asks for
a continuance they find a way to say, come on, Mike, and you grant it, it's not going to
have any teeth. So I want it to sort of -- I want people to actually be a little worried; if
they don't follow the rules, it's actually going to be enforced.
MR. BOSI: And as I understand your motion, whether I make a decision to grant
a continuance or not grant a continuance, that's only after consulting with the Chair.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Maybe we need to even put another tooth in there that the
5.B.a
Packet Pg. 81 Attachment: 11-16-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27365 : 11/16/2023 CCPC Meeting minutes)

Chair needs to concur.
MR. BOSI: Yes.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Would that work?
COMMISSIONER VERNON: Oh, yeah. Like I said, I don't think there's a
perfect, so whatever you think works.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: And then the other thing is, you know -- and Robb
brought this up as well, and so did Paul. The concern is -- the second big concern is the
public, and they take a day off work, come, it's very frustrating. Would it be appropriate
to let them speak twice if they want to? I mean, if they show up twice, they can speak
twice. I mean, it's three extra minutes or five extra minutes.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: I kind of did that on the fly. Based upon how we have
previously done it, the people get one shot at it, but that's more my view of what -- how we
have historically done it rather than how we're required to do it. And so I think if it's the
wish of the Planning Commission, we can allow people to speak again, you know.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: And we can suggest to them, if you're just going to
say the same thing over, we heard it the first time. But we're trying to sort of put some
teeth into it to sort of deter these willy-nilly continuances at the last minute.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Well, how about this, that we will allow a member of the
public who's already spoken to provide new material. And we're going to have the
transcript of what they say in front of us. So if we -- if they're talking and we're reading
along the transcript, and we'll say, hold on now; you've already made that point.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: I think that works for me.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: I'm okay if they make the same point again. I mean,
if they hadn't come today, we wouldn't have realized we needed more information to make
sure we get the right experts at the next one, and I think they should have the right to say
the same thing next time.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: I agree.
COMMISSIONER VERNON: I'm okay with that. I mean, I'm not -- you know,
none of these are hills to die on. I'm just throwing out ideas.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. Mr. Bosi.
MR. BOSI: And I want to clarify. That -- we have no -- there's no provision in
the continuance policy to addresses this issue. That's a procedural issue that you guys are
making the determination in terms of how -- if you want them to be able to speak at both
hearings. That's -- each case will be up to -- will be up to you, and I think you're just kind
of arriving upon a consensus of what you think of how your policy should move forward.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Yes. I'm thinking, though, we'd like to squeeze some
discretion out from us as well. And if we're going to allow some public speakers to speak
twice, we probably ought to say they all can, within the framework of the three- or
five-minute time limit each time.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: I agree with the Chair. And I think, as you
said, if it's new information, it's appreciated, if it's the same thing they had already stated.
The other concern I would have is if, like, for example, Mr. Dixon and Mr. Garcia show
up, and then they give their time to somebody else and they had already spoken --
CHAIRMAN FRYER: That's a good question.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: -- so there's no reason for them to give up
5.B.a
Packet Pg. 82 Attachment: 11-16-2023 CCPC Meeting Minutes (27365 : 11/16/2023 CCPC Meeting minutes)

their time so somebody else has an extra 10 minutes to present your case.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: I would agree. I would make that caveat that if
you've already spoken, you have to use that time if you want to speak again.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Exactly.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: But I like hearing it again because I'm old, and my
memory -- I thought they were both very good, and I'd like to hear it again in six weeks
when they -- but --
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: I'm with you. According to my wife, I
don't listen at all. So I will gladly hear that a second time over.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay.
COMMISSIONER SHEA: And if it becomes cumbersome, we can change it,
since it's a process, a procedure.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Correct.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: So are we asking staff to put all of that additional stuff
into the resolution?
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: What do you think, Mr. Bosi? Do you
think it should be procedural at that point in time?
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: Let's just put the continuance information in that you
requested to delegate the authority to Mr. Bosi to grant a continuance with the Chair's
approval.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: What about, though, allowing people to speak on both
days? Because if we do put it in there, it takes some discretion away from us, which I
think is advisable. But what do you think?
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: Well, I personally think that you should have the
discretion at the hearing as to whether you want to hear a second time. There are also
some Florida Statute considerations regarding the right of speakers to speak.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: Okay. We'll leave that out.
MS. ASHTON-CICKO: Yeah.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: That's fine. Thank you.
Mr. Bosi, is that okay with you?
MR. BOSI: (Nods head.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: All right. So we're going to see a redraft of this
resolution and -- probably at our next meeting, but maybe not.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Just for clarity, Mr. Bosi, those
could -- if -- according to Mr. Yovanovich, if his client pulls the Fiddler's Creek, the next
available would be -- I'm sorry, what was that? The --
MR. BOSI: January 4th.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: January 4th, and then if Fiddler Creek still
is on the agenda, then it would be pushed to February 1st?
MR. BOSI: Correct.
COMMISSIONER SCHUMACHER: Okay. Thank you.
CHAIRMAN FRYER: That's the current plan.
All right. Any other old business?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN FRYER: So we'll be seeing a draft coming back on what we just
talked about.

REQUESTED ACTION:
The applicant proposes a Small-Scale Comprehensive Plan amendment (a/k/a GMPA) to the
Collier County Growth Management Plan (GMP) Future Land Use Element (FLUE) to amend the
existing designation of Urban, Mixed Use District, Urban Residential Subdistrict to create a new
subdistrict entitled Mattson at Vanderbilt Residential Subdistrict. The petition proposes to amend
the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) to create a new map (Mattson at Vanderbilt Residential
Subdistrict) in the FLUM series to identify the subdistrict. The proposed GMP Amendment is
attached as Ordinance Exhibit “A.”
PURPOSE/DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT:
Proposal
To create the Mattson at Vanderbilt Residential Subdistrict to allow a maximum of 150 multi-
family rental units on the 5.88-acre property, the property (or site) is comprised of 2 parcels
resulting in a density of 25.5 dwelling units per acre (DU/A). The purpose of the proposed
subdistrict is to allow greater density than can be achieved through the GMP Density Rating
System.
The proposal includes a commitment that 22.6% of the units will be income-restricted and rent-
restricted for affordable housing, with half of these units (17 units) to be income-restricted and
rent-restricted for those making up to 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI) and the remaining
half (17 units) to be income-restricted and rent-restricted for those making up to 100% of AMI.
The affordable housing commitment is for 30 years.
In addition to the increased density, the subdistrict proposes reducing the LDC-required minimum
useable open space from 60% to 40%.
A companion petition (PL20230001010) proposes to rezone the 2 parcels from Rural
Agricultural District (A) to Residential Planned Unit Development (RPUD).
EXISTING CONDITIONS:
Subject Property:
The 5.88-acre proposed Mattson at Vanderbilt Residential Subdistrict is comprised of 2 parcels:
•A 1.93± acre parcel is located on the western end of the subdistrict and is currently developed
with a veterinarian office and kennels. This property is currently zoned Rural Agricultural (A)
and has a Future Land Use Designation of Urban Residential Subdistrict.
•A 3.91± acre parcel is located on the eastern end of the subdistrict and contains the now-closed
Bobbin Hollow Equestrian Center. This parcel is also zoned Rural Agricultural (A) and has a
Future Land Use Designation of Urban Residential Subdistrict.
Surrounding Lands:
North: Future Land Use Designation: Urban Residential Subdistrict. Zoned: Pelican Marsh PUD.
Land Use: Golf Course, then residential.
East: Future Land Use Designation: Urban Residential Subdistrict. Zoned: The Vanderbilt Trust
CFPUD. Land Use: Sandalwood Village Independent and Assisted Living Facility (ALF).
South: (across Vanderbilt Beach Road) Future Land Use Designation: Urban Residential
Subdistrict. Zoned: Vineyards PUD. Land Use: Residential uses.
West: Future Land Use Designation: Urban Residential Subdistrict. Zoned: Bradford Square
MPUD. Land Use: Independent and Assisted Living Facility (ALF).

In summary, the existing land uses in the larger surrounding area consist of low-density residential
use and Independent and Assisted Living Facilities, categorized as institutional use.
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:
Density
The existing Future Land Use Element (FLUE), Future Land Use Map (FLUM), and Map Series
of the Collier County Growth Management Plan (GMP) designate the subject property as Urban,
Mixed Use District, Urban Residential Subdistrict.
The Urban Residential Subdistrict allows a wide variety of non-residential uses, including
childcare centers, churches, and public schools, which include charter schools, private schools,
essential services, safety service facilities, utility and communication facilities, agricultural uses,
parks, open space, and recreational uses. All these uses are allowed under the existing “A” zoning,
either by conditional use or permitted by right.
The Urban Residential Subdistrict provides for higher-density residential uses, with density
determined by the Density Rating System; however, in no case shall the maximum density exceed
16 dwelling units per acre in the Urban Residential Subdistrict.
Staff calculation of the maximum allowable (eligible) density, based upon the existing FLUE
designation and applicable Density Rating System criteria, is 59 dwelling units, or 10 DU/A (see
table below).
4 DU/A Base Density
+3 DU/A Residential In-fill density bonus
+3 DU/A TCMA-Transportation Concurrency Management Areas density bonus
10 DU/A Maximum eligible density for market-rate development only
+6 DU/A Affordable Housing Density Bonus per LDC Sec. 2.06.00
16 DU/A Maximum eligible density if it includes affordable housing per LDC
Note: eligible density is not an entitlement, as stated in the Density Rating System
The rezoning proposal is for 150 multi-family rental units on 5.88 acres, resulting in a density of
25.5 DU/A. This is 15.5 dwelling units above the maximum density of 10 DU/A that can be
achieved through the Density Rating System for market-rate development and greater than the
maximum 16 DU/A maximum allowed in the Urban Residential Subdistrict. The proposed density
cannot be achieved through the Density Rating System; therefore, the proposal is inconsistent with
the FLUE. To achieve the proposed density of 25.5 DU/A, a GMP Amendment (GMPA) is
required.
Any comprehensive plan amendment to increase residential density within the Mixed Use District
shall only provide for that density increase via utilization of the transfer of development right
(TDR) program, except TDR credits shall not be required for projects determined by the Board of
County Commissioners to have a reasonably sufficient public benefit.
Staff review includes a comparative analysis of land use and density/intensity of proximate
development. The proposed Mattson at Vanderbilt Subdistrict is flanked on the east and west by
Independent and Assisted Living communities, which are classified as institutional uses that utilize
Floor Area Ratio (FAR) to determine the intensity of use rather than density associated with
residential dwelling units per acre. Surrounding residential communities include Pelican Marsh

Beach Road, and Wilshire Lakes PUD east of the adjacent ALF. These communities are low-
density residential uses with less than four DU/A; the highest density in the vicinity is the
Vineyards at 3.62 DU/A. The Bermuda Islands Apartments are located south-southwest of the
project area within the Vineyards PUD and consist of 360 multi-family dwelling units on 23.26
acres for a site density of 15.48 DU/A. The overall PUD density of the Vineyards is 3.62 DU/A.
The two ALF developments, Bradford Square PUD, on the west, and The Vanderbilt Trust PUD
a/k/a Sandalwood Village, on the east, are part of one GMP Subdistrict, the Vanderbilt Beach Road
Neighborhood Commercial Subdistrict, which restricts residential density to 16 DU/A. That
subdistrict also allows most uses in the C-1 through C-3 commercial zoning districts – 100,000
square feet on the westerly parcel (Bradford Square MPUD, also approved to include those
commercial uses) and 80,000 square feet on the easterly parcel (The Vanderbilt Trust CFPUD,
approved for group housing only – ALF, nursing home, etc.). Notwithstanding the commercial
uses allowed by the subdistrict, staff believes it unlikely those two PUDs would be redeveloped
with commercial uses given that both were developed within the last seven years, and each has an
“improved value” in excess of $20 million.
Based on the surrounding neighborhood, the proposed density is exponentially greater than the
surrounding residential communities. Typical retail and commercial service uses are located
approximately one mile west of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Airport Road North, but the area
generally comprises low-density residential PUDs.
Prior petitions for a GMPA have achieved density increases through the provision of affordable
housing or other public benefit; however, at 25.5 DU/A, the proposed Mattson at Vanderbilt
density is among the highest of recently approved residential projects, even those with
an affordable housing component. The ‘standard’ affordable housing provision of 22.6% of the
units would result in a maximum of 34 affordable units; 50% would be provided to those
earning up to 80% of Annual Median Income (AMI) and 50% up to 100 % AMI.

Adequate justification for the 25.5 DU/A cannot be found based upon 1) the low-density
residential character of the surrounding community and 2) the provision of only 22.6%
affordable housing units.
Staff recommends a reduction in the proposed density to 16 DU/A consistent with the Vanderbilt
Beach Road Neighborhood Commercial Subdistrict; however, if the Planning Commission
recommends the GMPA for approval, staff urges consideration of requiring additional
commensurate public benefit, which may be in the form of additional affordable housing units for
this subdistrict to be granted the requested increase in density to 25.5 DU/A. At a minimum, staff
recommends considering requiring 30% of the proposed units to be income-restricted and rent-
restricted. The additional units derived from the increased percentage should be income-
restricted and rent-restricted for those making up to 100% AMI.
The following chart shows the recent GMPA and PUD approvals to increase density and the
required affordable housing:

Development Standards
In addition to the use and density/intensity of surrounding properties, the physical character of the
adjacent communities is reviewed for uniformity and compatibility; however, development
standards are administered by the Collier County Land Development Code (LDC) and include
setbacks and buffers, building height, and open space.
Adjacent properties are developed with building heights of three to four-story structures;
Sandalwood Village on the east is three stories atop one level of structured parking, with
a maximum actual height of 62-feet, and Bradford Square on the west is a three-story structure
with a maximum actual building height of 53-feet. Minimum buffers are provided in each of
these developments and are generally consistent with those proposed for Mattson at Vanderbilt.
Setbacks from Vanderbilt Beach Road are increased to 50-feet for Mattson at Vanderbilt,
whereas the adjacent Bradford Square has a setback of 35-feet, and The Vanderbilt Trust
PUD a/k/a Sandalwood Village setback is 25-feet. Side setbacks vary, with a high of 75-feet
proposed on Mattson at Vanderbilt and decreasing to a minimum of 15-feet on the western
boundary of Sandalwood Village.
Open Space is a requirement of all Planned Unit Developments (PUDs), and those composed
entirely of residential dwelling units require a minimum of 60% useable open space pursuant to
Section 4.07.02.G.1 of the LDC. The LDC defines usable open space as:
Open space, usable: Active or passive recreation areas such as parks,
playgrounds, tennis courts, golf courses, beach frontage, waterways, lakes,
9.A.1.a
Packet Pg. 91 Attachment: Mattson at Vanderbilt CCPC Staff Report (27093 : PL20220001010 GMPA Amendment Mattson at Vanderbilt)
PL20230001010
7
lagoons, floodplains, nature trails , and other similar open spaces. Usable open
space areas shall also include those portions of areas set aside for preservation of
native vegetation, required yards (setbacks), and landscaped areas, which are
accessible to and usable by residents of an individual lot, the development, or the
general public. Open wat er area beyond the perimeter of the site, street rights -of-
way, driveways, off-street parking and loading areas, shall not be counted towards
required Usable Open Space.
The proposed Mattson at Vanderbilt subdistrict language proposes 40% usable open space for
the overall site area. The applicant's justification for this reduction to be located in the
subdistrict language is that it is a developer commitment and provides further justification for the
reduction:
•The project is “…redevelopment and an infill residential project on 5.9 +/- acres.”
•The project is centrally located within the site.
•The intent is to maintain comparable building heights with the adjacent ALFs.
•The provision of an enhanced buffer on the northern property line adjacent to the Pelican
Marsh Golf Course “…to ensure compatibility and increase effective open space for the
site.”
Staff does not support the relief from zoning standards located within the GMP subdistrict. There
is an appropriate process to request a deviation in the companion PUD. The justification for this
reduction in the GMP subdistrict due to the request being a developer commitment is not factual
since the request is a developer reduction of an LDC requirement. Staff has historically requested
standards required by the GMP to be included in the subdistrict language or when developer
commitments exceed the LDC minimum in providing greater assurance of completion (since a
PUD Amendment could be utilized to remove the commitment in the zoning).
The GMP does not include requirements for open space within the Urban, Mixed Use District, or
Urban Residential Subdistrict; therefore, the open space requirement is solely an LDC issue.
Zoning and Comprehensive Planning staff agree that this reduction should be requested through
the companion zoning petition.
The LDC requires that residential-only PUDs provide a minimum of 60% useable open
space, and this should not be waived simply by adding a lesser standard in the GMP subdistrict.
In addition to the requirement being removed from the GMP, staff does not support the reduction
in useable open space for a dense, urban-style apartment complex. The density of 25.5 DU/A
cannot meet required standards, such as the useable open space minimum and parking, for which
a deviation is sought in the companion PUD petition. The justification provided for the reduction
is not adequate. The inability to comply with LDC standards for required useable open space and
parking appears to be a self-created circumstance caused by requesting such a high-density
development.
Should the Planning Commission choose to recommend approval of the reduction via the PUD
petition, staff would suggest that additional public benefit be required to offset the loss of open
space. This could be in the form of additional affordable housing.
Residential Needs Analysis
Staff, developers, and the public have well documented the need for affordable housing in Collier
County. However, the need may vary by geographic area within the county and income
affordability level. Further, if the need is established, the proposed site is evaluated to determine
if it is the appropriate location to fulfill that need.
9.A.1.a

The applicant provided the 2017 Urban Land Use Institute report to support the plan amendment;
however, no specifics were provided regarding the report, nor was a locational analysis provided
to analyze the appropriateness of this use at this site. The appropriateness of the site for residential
use and the requested density must be justified, and the provision of affordable housing units
should be discussed in terms of proximity to employment, goods and services, access, and transit
availability. When additional information was requested, the agent responded, "The applicant is
of the opinion that the demand for affordable housing units in Collier County is well-documented,
and no further data is necessary to support the proposed request." A GMPA must, according to
state statute, provide sufficient data and analysis to justify the proposed amendment. Staff has not
found this standard to be satisfied.
Compatibility:
Given the area's residential character, staff finds that the requested residential use is compatible
with the surrounding area. However, staff does not support the proposed density of 25.5 DU/A,
which is significantly higher than, and out of character with, the surrounding community and
potentially incompatible.
Environmental Review:
The property is located in an Urban Mix Use district. The property is zoned Ag, with 2 parcels
totaling 5.88 acres. The request is to create an Urban Mixed Use district Urban Residential
Subdistrict. CCME Policy 6.1.1 and Obj 7.1 have been addressed; the property has been developed
and mostly impacted. A tree survey will be required to determine tree preservation amounts if
needed. No EAC is required.
Conservation and Coastal Management Element (CCME) Review:
Environmental review staff has found this project consistent with the Conservation & Coastal
Management Element (CCME). The project site has been cleared; no preservation is required.
The project site is 5.88 acres and consists of 12 native trees meeting the preservation
standards.
Transportation Planning Review:
Based on the TIS, State Statues, the 2021, and the 2022 AUIR, the subject PUD can be found
consistent with Policy 5.1 of the Transportation Element of the Growth Management Plan. The
Traffic Impact Statement (TIS) indicates that the adjacent roadway network has sufficient capacity
to accommodate this project within the 5-year planning period.
Public Utilities Review:
The project lies within the regional potable water service area and the North County Water
Reclamation Facility’s wastewater service area of the Collier County Water-Sewer District
(CCWSD). Water and wastewater services are available via existing infrastructure within the
adjacent right-of-way. Sufficient water and wastewater treatment capacities are available.
Any improvements to the CCWSD’s water or wastewater systems necessary to provide sufficient
capacity to serve the project will be the responsibility of the owner/developer and will be conveyed
to the CCWSD at no cost to the County at the time of utility acceptance.

NEIGHBORHOOD INFORMATION MEETING (NIM) NOTES:
The applicant conducted a NIM on May 24, 2023, at the Collier County Headquarters Library,
Sugden Theater, located at 2385 Orange Blossom Drive in Naples. The meeting commenced at
approximately 5:30 p.m. and ended at approximately 5:40 p.m. There were no in-person attendees
other than the applicant’s team and county staff, and two people from the general public attended
via Zoom.
D. Wayne Arnold, AICP, the agent, gave a brief presentation explaining the NIM process for
approval and providing an overview of the proposed project.
The only question was regarding where to find project information online. The NIM transcript and
PowerPoint presentation are included in the CCPC backup materials.
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS:
•There are no adverse environmental impacts as a result of this petition.
•There are no known historic or archaeological resources on the subject site.
•There are no transportation or public utility-related concerns as a result of this petition.
•There are no concerns about impacts on other public infrastructure.
•This project may create impacts on the surrounding area due to the proposed density, which is
not in character with the surrounding low-density residential development. However, this can
be made more acceptable by increasing the public benefit provided by this petition and
providing the LDC-required amount of useable open space.
•Staff does not support including a useable open space requirement in the proposed Subdistrict
text; rather, it supports deferring to the LDC. Further, staff does not support a reduction of that
useable open space requirement below the LDC-required 60%.
•The petitioner is proposing 22.6% (34 DUs) of the total requested 150 DUs as affordable units
as a “public benefit” to satisfy the requirement that all GMPAs that request a density increase
in the Urban Mixed Use District must utilize Transfer of Development Rights credits OR the
petition must provide “a reasonably sufficient public benefit.”
•Considering the density increase requested, the number of affordable housing units is
inadequate.
•Data and analysis submitted by the petitioner do not justify approval of this GMPA as
submitted.

Staff cannot support the petition as submitted. If the Planning Commission seeks to recommend
approval, staff would urge the requirement for additional public benefit to offset the 25.5 DU/A
and the reduction in Open Space.
LEGAL REVIEW: The County Attorney’s Office reviewed this Staff Report on November 7,
2023.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends denial of the petition as submitted. Staff
cannot support the requested density at this location; staff does not support including the
usable open space standard in the GMP Subdistrict language; and staff does not support the
proposed reduction of usable open space from 60% to 40% in a dense urban rental apartment
community.
However, IF the Collier County Planning Commission chooses to recommend approval of
this GMPA petition, THEN, as an alternative, staff recommends the CCPC consider the
following:
1.A reduction in the project density to 16 DU/A based on the subject location and inability
to meet development standards and/or,
2.An increase in the public benefit in the form of additional affordable housing for the
significant increase in density to a minimum of 30% based upon recent approvals and,
3.Removal of the GMPA subdistrict language related to usable open space (with disapproval
of a reduction of usable open space in the companion PUD). Staff acknowledges that
maintaining the 60% usable open space requirement may necessitate a density reduction
and/or a building height increase. Approving a reduction in usable open space should be
offset by the petition providing increased public benefit in the form of additional affordable
housing units at 34%.
NOTE: This petition has been tentatively scheduled for the BCC meeting on January 23, 2023.

located approximately 1,100 feet east of Livingston Road on the north side of Vanderbilt Beach Road.
The intent of this subdistrict is to allow for a maximum of 150 multi-family dwelling units to promote
affordable and workforce housing in an urban area with transit, employment centers, and public
infrastructure. The development of this subdistrict will be governed by the following criteria:
a. Development shall be in the form of a PUD.
b. The dwelling units are limited to rental units.
c. The maximum number of dwelling units permitted within the subdistrict is 150 dwelling units.
d. Usable open space shall be 40% of the overall site area.
e. Affordable Housing Commitment:
1. Of the total units constructed, the project shall comply with the following: 11.3% of the
units will be rented to households whose incomes are up to and including 80% of the Area
Median Income (AMI) for Collier County and 11.3% of the units will be rented to households
whose incomes are up to and including 100% of the AMI for Collier County and the
corresponding rent limits. At time of each SDP, no less than 22.6% of the dwelling units will
be identified as affordable and shown on the SDP with the AMI required ranges and
fractional numbers will be rounded up to the nearest whole unit. These units will be
committed for a period of 30 years from the date of issuance of certificate of occupancy of
the first unit. Income and rent limits may be adjusted annually based on combined income
and rent limit table published by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation or as otherwise
provided by Collier County.
2. As part of the annual PUD monitoring report, the developer will include an annual report
that provides the progress and monitoring of occupancy of the income restricted units,
including rent data for rented units, in a format approved by Collier County Community and
Human Services Division. Developer agrees to annual on-site monitoring by the County.
f. The Density Rating System is not applicable to this Subdistrict.

The small-scale growth management plan amendment proposes to establish a new infill
subdistrict which would permit up to 150 multi-family rental dwelling units on the 5.88+/- acre
property. The applicant has committed that 11.3% of the dwelling units constructed will be
income restricted and rented to individuals or families earning less than 80% of the Collier
County AMI and 11.3% of the dwelling units constructed will be income restricted and rented
to individuals or families earning less than 100% of the Collier County AMI.
The small-scale amendment is necessary in order to develop the property at a density that
provides an economic incentive to the developer to provide 22.6% of the units constructed as
affordable rental units.
Under, Chapter 163 of the Florida Statutes, local governments may adopt small-scale
amendments to their Growth Management Plans if the amendment impacts fewer than 50
acres. The proposed new sub-district consists of approximately 5.88+/- acres and is; therefore,
eligible to seek the proposed small-scale amendment. A companion PUD rezoning application
has been filed with Collier County.
Chapter 163.3167 Scope of act.—
(9) Each local government shall address in its comprehensive plan, as enumerated in this
chapter, the water supply sources necessary to meet and achieve the existing and projected
water use demand for the established planning period, considering the applicable plan developed
pursuant to s. 373.709.
The project will be provided potable water and sewer service by Collier County Water Sewer
District. No capacity issues exist or are anticipated in the service area.
Chapter 163.3177
(6) (a) 2. The future land use plan and plan amendments shall be based upon surveys,
studies, and data regarding the area, as applicable, including:
a. The amount of land required to accommodate anticipated growth.
b. The projected permanent and seasonal population of the area.
c. The character of undeveloped land.
d. The availability of water supplies, public facilities, and services.
e. The need for redevelopment, including the renewal of blighted areas and the elimination
of nonconforming uses which are inconsistent with the character of the community.
f. The compatibility of uses on lands adjacent to or closely proximate to military
installations.

g. The compatibility of uses on lands adjacent to an airport as defined in s. 330.35 and
consistent with s. 333.02.
h. The discouragement of urban sprawl.
i. The need for job creation, capital investment, and economic development that will
strengthen and diversify the community’s economy.
j. The need to modify land uses and development patterns within antiquated subdivisions.
Chapter 163.3177
8. Future land use map amendments shall be based upon the following analyses:
a. An analysis of the availability of facilities and services.
b. An analysis of the suitability of the plan amendment for its proposed use considering
the character of the undeveloped land, soils, topography, natural resources, and historic
resources on site.
c. An analysis of the minimum amount of land needed to achieve the goals and
requirements of this section.
The Mattson at Vanderbilt Residential Subdistrict is consistent with Chapter 163.3177, F.S.
The subdistrict includes all available land of a size adequate to support a residential project.
163.3184 Process for adoption of comprehensive plan or plan amendment.
The proposed amendment is consistent with Chapter 163.3184, F.S which establishes the
criteria for small-scale comprehensive plan amendments to a growth management plan.
163.3187 Process for adoption of small scale comprehensive plan amendment.—
(1) A small scale development amendment may be adopted under the following conditions:
(a) The proposed amendment involves a use of 50 acres or fewer and:
(b) The proposed amendment does not involve a text change to the goals, policies, and
objectives of the local government’s comprehensive plan, but only proposes a land use change
to the future land use map for a site-specific small scale development activity. However, text
changes that relate directly to, and are adopted simultaneously with, the small scale future land
use map amendment shall be permissible under this section.
(c) The property that is the subject of the proposed amendment is not located within an
area of critical state concern, unless the project subject to the proposed amendment involves
the construction of affordable housing units meeting the criteria of s. 420.0004(3), and is
located within an area of critical state concern designated by s. 380.0552 or by the
Administration Commission pursuant to s. 380.05(1).
The proposed amendment involves the use of less than 50 acres, the proposed amendment
includes a map amendment and associated text relating directly to the map amendment, and
the property is not located within an area of critical state concern. No State or regional impacts
are associated with the proposed amendment.

Project Justification
Future Land Use Element:
The 5.88± acre project is designated Urban Designation, Mixed Use District, Urban Residential
Subdistrict on the Future Land Use Map. The small-scale growth management plan amendment
proposes to establish a new infill subdistrict which would permit up to 150 multi-family rental
dwelling units on the 5.88+/- acre property. The applicant has committed that 11.3% of the
dwelling units constructed will be income restricted and rented to individuals or families
earning less than 80% of the Collier County AMI and 11.3% of the dwelling units constructed
will be income restricted and rented to individuals or families earning less than 100% of the
Collier County AMI.
The small-scale amendment is necessary in order to develop the property at a density that
provides an economic incentive to the developer to provide 30% of the units constructed as
affordable rental units.
Both Collier County and the Urban Land Institute have conducted analyses of the demand for
additional affordable housing in Collier County. The studies have concluded that additional
housing meeting affordable housing guidelines are needed in Collier County.
Policy 5.9: Encourage recognition of identifiable communities within the urbanized area of
western Collier County. Presentation of economic and demographic data shall be based on
Planning Communities and commonly recognized neighborhoods.
Transportation Element:
Policy 5.1 requires that all projects are evaluated to determine their effect on the overall
countywide density or intensity of permissible development, with consideration of their
impact on the overall County transportation system and shall not approve any petition or
application that would directly access a deficient roadway segment as identified in the current
AUIR or if it impacts an adjacent roadway segment that is deficient as identified in the current
AUIR. The TIS prepared in support of this small-scale amendment application concludes that
no level of service issues will arise from development of the proposed 150 rental units.
Public Facilities Element:
The property is served by potable water and sanitary sewer services. Water and sewer service
will be provided by Collier County Water Sewer District. No capacity issues have been
identified or are anticipated in the future.
Conservation and Coastal Management Element:
Policy 6.1.2 requires that developments in the Urban area must retain a minimum of 25% of
existing native vegetation on-site. The site has been largely cleared in support of the former
9.A.1.c

Exhibit VD Growth Management-r1.docx
equestrian training facility and existing animal hospital and only scattered native trees remain
on-site. Some tree clusters exist and 25% of the trees to be retained will be identified as part
of the companion PUD application.
Objective 6.2 and implementing policies protect and conserve wetlands and natural functions
of wetlands. The vegetative mapping provided in the Environmental Assessment identifies no
wetlands on the site.
Objective 7.1: Direct incompatible land uses away from listed animal species and their habitats.
The availability of suitable habitat for any vertebrate is quite limited. The parcel is cleared and
does not provide potential for any denning, habitation and /or foraging. The parcel is also
surrounded by development. The parcel was traversed and examined. Potential species for
such a small parcel would be fox squirrels and/or gopher tortoises. At the time of inspection,
no burrows and/or small animals were encountered. The project site does provide some
foraging for traversing birds. A Black Bear management plan may be required at the time of
SDP. Please also refer to the listed species management and indigenous preservation plans
prepared by Collier Environmental Consultants, Inc.

Executive Summary
ES-05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b)
1. Introduction
The 2021-2025 Consolidated Plan for Housing and Community Development provides the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) with information on Collier County’s
intended uses of funds HUD's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment
Partnerships (HOME), and Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) programs. The County allocates the
annual funding from these programs to public, private, or non-profit parties consistent with HUD
program goals and requirements. Below is a list of each of the grant program objectives:
CDBG Program: Provide decent housing, creating suitable living environments, and
expanding economic opportunities principally for low- and moderate-income persons.
HOME Program: Provides funding for a wide range of activities including building, buying,
and/or rehabilitating affordable housing for rent or homeownership or providing direct
rental assistance to low-income people.
ESG Program: ESG funds improve the number and quality of emergency shelters for
homeless individuals and families, help operate shelters, provide essential services to
shelter residents, rapidly rehouse homeless individuals and families, and prevent families
and individuals from becoming homeless.
The County submits the Consolidated Plan to HUD every five years and has a program year
beginning October 1 and ending September 30. The County’s Annual Action provide a concise
summary of the actions, activities, and specific federal and nonfederal resources that will be used
each year to address the priority needs and goals identified in the Consolidated Plan.
The County has identified the following Goals to be addressed over the 2021-2025 Consolidated
Plan period and during the 2021 Annual Action Plan:
Goal # Goal Name
1 Housing Affordability
2 Homelessness & Homelessness Prevention

Community Profile and Needs
The Collier County Consolidated Plan relies upon multiple forms of qualitative and quantitative
data as well as community input in order to identify housing, homelessness, and community
development needs and trends. This picture of need is the basis of the proposed objectives and
outcomes for the 2021 Consolidated Plan. In addition to the US Census, updated American
Community Survey (ACS) data and community surveys that provides the foundation for
development of the document, the Cities of Naples, Everglades, and Marco Island built on the
work of several active committees and recent studies that addressed housing, homeless and
community development. The assessment was also informed by additional consultations with
city officials and other important stakeholders such as the Affordable Housing Advisory
Committee, United Way of Collier County, and the Collier County Homeless Coalition.
In 2020, the County’s economy has continued to diversify and improve, while at the same time
leaving many in the community still struggling to find jobs with wages to cover increasing housing
costs. There is a significant number of households who cannot meet the basic needs for food,
shelter, medical care, and transportation. In addition, there are a growing number of seniors,
persons with disabilities, and others who are unable to work. These factors, combined with a very
tight housing market, have resulted in many households paying more than they can afford, and
a growing number of persons experiencing homelessness. It is important to note that the impacts
of the COVID-19 are too recent to be reflected in the 2020 and 2019 ACS data used for the analysis
provided below.
Population Growth
As noted in the 2019 Census American Community Survey, Collier County, Florida had a total
population of 384,902 of which 195,189 or 50.7% are female and 189,713 or 49.2% are males
when compared to 2010, County’s population was 322,472 with 162,493 or 50.3% of females and
159,979 or 49.6% of males. Therefore, reflecting a 19.3% population increase in the Collier
County. Population grew to 21,812 in Naples, 7.32% increase since 2010. The population also
increased in Marco Island to 17,834, a 5.14% increase since 2010. Last, Everglades City’s
population decreased to 190, a 41.89% decrease since 2010. Accounting for population growth
over the last 10 years, Collier County is expected to continue to grow over time.
Age Distribution
The population of Collier County is aging. According to ACS, in 2010 there were 70,289 people
aged 60 to 75 and this grew to 87,042 in 2019. For the same period, there were 193,930 people
under the age of 55 in 2010, which has also risen to 205,929 in 2019.
Racial and Ethnic Composition
Collier County is becoming increasingly racially and ethnically diverse. Latino residents are the
fastest growing population, representing 28.6% of the population in the County in 2019. While
11.5% of the population is non-white comprised of 28,704 African Americans, 6,961 Asians, 1,768
American Indian and Alaska Natives, and 6,414 multi-racial persons.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
Household Composition
As of 2019, Collier County has a total of 140,578 households. There were 10,797 households in
Naples, 8,379 in Marco Island, and 101 in Everglades City. In Collier County, of the 140,578 total
household there were 10,194 single female-headed households and 4,417 single male-headed
households. There has also been a significant increase in nonfamily households 43,299 which
now make up 30.8% of all households as compared to 2010 which had 37,996 or 32.12%. The
largest growth in household type is non-family households which increased 13.95% between
2010 and 2019. In 2019, the average household size is 2.71 in Collier County.
Multigenerational living is defined as residing in a home with three or more generations.
According to Generations United, the past ten years have seen a remarkably large leap in
multigenerational living, from 7% of Americans 2011 to 26% of Americans in 2021. As noted in
the 2010 Census, Collier County had a total of 118,258 households of which 2.6% (3,022)% were
living in multigenerational households. This data is collected during the decennial census every
ten years and this data is the most recent data available.

Income and Poverty
According to 2019 ACS, the median income of households in Collier County, Florida was $76,025.
An estimated 4.8% of households had income below $10,000 a year and 13.1% had income over
$200,000 or more. The Median Household Income for Collier County is higher than the US
($65,712) and our northern county, Lee County ($57,832). While income has risen slightly there
remain many low wage jobs and data has shown this contributes to financial instability as
evidenced by other indicators: 6.5% or 9,164 residents receive food stamp benefits (SNAP), 61%
of students are eligible for free and reduced lunch. In 2019, 48,825 individuals in Collier County
had incomes below 125 % of the poverty levels as indicated in the chart below.

Persons with Disabilities
According to the 2019 ACS, of the total Collier County population of 384,902 there were 47,569
people, or 12.3%, living with one or more disabilities. The highest reported disabilities include
ambulatory at 6.3%, cognitive at 3.9%, and difficulty with independent living 5.2%.
Persons Experiencing Homelessness
The 2021 Point-in-Time Count (PIT) identified 568 people in Collier County experiencing
homelessness, a 5.8% decrease from 2020. Over 25% of this population, or 144 individuals, met
HUD’s definition of unsheltered. As a disclaimer, these numbers may be under reported due to
COVID. The 2021 PIT count also found that 169 persons experiencing homelessness were
seriously mentally ill, 198 reported substance abuse, 34 were veterans, 49 were seniors, and 49
were families with comprised of adults and 109 children. For FY 2021, Collier County reported
that 568 unduplicated individuals who were homeless received human services from one or more
agencies. During the 2020-2021 school year, the Collier County public school reported 805

homeless youth, includes students who are staying with friends or family. The reported number
includes 183 homeless youth (16 and older) who were unaccompanied.
Persons with Special Needs who are not Homeless.
Limited new data exists specific to non-homeless special needs populations in Collier County.
There are numerous sub-populations in this community. Of those, there are some that have both
enough and unique housing and service needs that warrant identification. Those include the
following: families with children, seniors, ex-offenders, people with HIV/AIDS, victims of domestic
violence, people with drug and alcohol addictions, people who are evicted or foreclosed, people
with physical and mental disabilities, veterans, youth and young adults, and youth aging out of
foster care.
Employment and Economy
Economic conditions in Collier County have recovered significantly in the past decade, and the
County has emerged as a more diversified economy than it was before the Great Recession. The
number of jobs has grown steadily during the decade, and unemployment rates have remained
relatively low during recent years (below 3%). Wages have slightly risen 1.9% in the County as
reflected in the household earnings chart below:
Household Earnings 2017-2019

$40,622.00 $40,892.00 $41,415.00
Source: Census, ACS Estimates 2017-2019, data.census.gov
As of 2019, there were 166,353 (50.7%) persons in the labor force 16 years and older and 161,557
(49.3%) not in the labor force. According to 2019 ACS estimates, 4,929 or 1.5% of the total
population was unemployed.
While there have been recent and significant job losses as a result of COVID-19, it is unclear how
sustained these job losses will be as social distancing measures diminish. It is apparent however
that many people with limited incomes are experiencing financial instability as a result of recent
events.
Housing Units and Tenure
According to 2019 ACS estimates, the County had a total of 222,289 housing units. The majority
of the housing units are single family 1-unit detached unit structures at 90,552 (40.7%) of the
total units. The remainder consisting of 1-unit, attached at 15,145 (6.8%), 2-9 multi-family units
at 44,174 (20.1%), 10-20 multi-family units at 59,697 (26.9%) and a small share of
mobile/manufactured homes at 12,499 (5.6%) of the housing units.

Consolidated Plan COLLIER COUNTY 10
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
While wages and incomes have continued to rise in recent years, they have not kept pace with
the cost of both owner and rental housing in Collier County. From 2010 to 2019, Median
Household Income increased 44% from 2010 at $52,730 to 2019 at $76,025. Housing costs in the
county area have risen more sharply since 2010, especially in recent years. According to 2019
ACS estimates, the County’s median home prices have increased by 44.8% between 2010 and
2019, reaching $370,000. The County’s median gross rental rates have also increased
substantially faster than incomes and the home values. Between 2010 and 2019, the median
rental rate rose to 48.3% from $942 in 2010 to $1,397 in 2019. As a result, many households pay
more for housing than is affordable, or are unable to afford any housing. Households paying more
than 30% of household income are considered to have a ‘housing cost burden’. According to 2019
ACS, a total of 19,977 of renters in Collier County have cost burdens greater than 30% of their
income, while a total of 14,910 of homeowners have cost burdens greater than 30% but less than
50% of their income. HUD Comprehensive Housing Affordable Strategy (CHAS) (2011-2015) data
estimates the County had a total of 13,977 renter households and 14,154 of owner households
spent more than 30% of their income on housing costs.
Housing Conditions and Lead Based Paint
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Report on the National Survey of Lead-Based Paint
in Housing released in 1995 found that 83% of the nation’s privately owned housing units built
before 1980 had lead-based paint somewhere in the building. The study suggests that older
homes are more likely to have lead-based paint than newer homes. According to the 2019 ACS,
approximately 17% (37,852) of the total housing units were built prior to 1980 may be at risk of
containing lead-based paint. Lead-based paint numbers are estimated since census data is not
broken out annually. Since lead-based paint was outlawed in 1978 and census data is not
available annually, all housing built after 1980 was excluded from the potential pool of housing
potentially contaminated with lead-based paint.
Despite the age of the housing stock, the physical condition of the housing in Collier County is
generally good, as there are relatively few housing units (1,715) in the area that are considered
substandard according to HUD. Based on input received during provider and public consultations,
units available to low-income residents tend to have more significant issues, and because of the
scarcity of affordable low-income housing, residents are reluctant to raise their concerns for fear
of losing the housing.
2. Summary of the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan Needs Assessment

The Process
The Consolidated Plan was developed through extensive consultation with partner organizations
and other stakeholders, as well as broad input from community members. Several
intergovernmental and advisory committees—representing the affordable housing provider,
advocates, and other key community stakeholders—played an integral role. The Consolidated
Plan also incorporated valuable data and analysis from several recently published reports on
demographic, housing, community, and economic development conditions and needs. Service
providers also shared their insights through an online survey. Extensive public outreach was
conducted to allow other community members to share their insights during the planning process
through public hearings, and online surveys. This section summarizes the extensive consultation
and citizen outreach conducted.

1. Introduction
The County developed an outreach effort to maximize input from a large cross-section of
stakeholders. This outreach effort included public meetings, neighborhood meetings, published
meeting notices, and a web survey conducted in both English and Spanish. Consultation with the
community and affected service providers is a fundamental component of the Consolidated Plan
and Action Plan process. Collier County conducted significant consultation with citizens,
municipal officials, non-profit agencies, public housing agencies, governmental agencies, and the
Continuum of Care in preparing this Plan.
The last piece of the stakeholder outreach component involved surveying local broadband and
hazard mitigation agencies. Additionally, a total of 536 stakeholders completed surveys inquiring
about the community and housing needs throughout the County. The County held two virtual
public meetings on February 17, 2021 at 11:00am and 3:00pm through its public participation
process prior to the development of the plan and one public meeting to review the draft
priorities. These meetings are summarized in the Citizen Participation Section of this plan. Drafts
of the plans have been posted on the County webpage. Notices of public meetings and hearings
were published in the local newspaper.
Stakeholder Focus Groups and Interviews: From February 2021 through April 2021, a series of
stakeholder meetings and interviews was conducted to discuss issues and opportunities related
to housing and community development needs as well as fair housing issues. Individuals
representing government and policy makers, nonprofit organizations, affordable housing
providers, and other interested parties were invited to participate to ensure that as many points
of view as possible were heard. Over the course of one-on-one interviews and small focus group
meetings, approximately five local nonprofit organizations provided their feedback in person.
Several meetings were held with the local committees and in other settings. Public presentations
of the findings and recommendations from the Needs Assessment, Market Analysis, and Priority
and Needs sections were shared at multiple community meetings in February.
Community and Agency Surveys: Separate online surveys were developed to gather information
about current community conditions and needs. A total of 536 representatives from community
agencies and the public responded to the online survey. This survey sought input from housing
community development stakeholders and community members for the purposes of identifying
priority needs, reviewing, and providing feedback on the County’s current priorities, and
providing feedback on the housing and community development conditions in Collier County.
The agency survey received responses from a range of organizations including city agencies,
housing providers, and social service providers and advocate groups. The participating agencies
provide social services support to low-income and near-homeless populations to maintain
housing and secure available public and private resources. Agencies providing temporary and

transitional housing to at-risk populations like single mothers, victims of domestic abuse, elderly,
people with disabilities and/or mental illnesses, etc. were identified and reached out to for
information through the survey as well as in-depth interviews.
Consolidated Plan Advisory Committee: The Affordable Housing Advisory Committee provided
input and feedback during several meetings on current housing and community development
conditions, needs, and strategies.
Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction’s activities to enhance coordination between
public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health, and
service agencies (91.215(I)).
During the development of the Consolidated Plan, the County sought to encourage a high level
of public communication and agency consultation in an effort to demonstrate its commitment to
identifying priority needs and engaging the participation of citizens, public agencies, and
nonprofit organizations in a positive and collaborative manner. A list of stakeholders and
affordable housing providers was developed and included public agencies and private nonprofit
organizations whose missions included the provision of affordable housing and human services
to LMI households and persons. These stakeholders were invited to participate in needs
assessment meetings held for the purpose of developing the Consolidated Plan. The list of
stakeholders is included in the Citizen Participation Comments section. Based on the public
meetings, a set of priorities was established by the County for the next five years as shown in SP-
25 of this document.
Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of
homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with
children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness.
Collier County staff attends bi-monthly meetings with the Hunger & Homeless Coalition of Collier
County and area service providers to enhance the community's comprehensive Continuum of
Care system to end homelessness. This dynamic partnership includes collaborative efforts of a
variety of community groups, government agencies. The Hunger & Homeless Coalition of Collier
County serves as the Lead Agency and has been designated by the CoC as the Collaborative
Applicant to apply for the HUD CoC grant on behalf of Collier County’s Continuum of Care. The
County enhances coordination of public, private, and non-profit housing providers, human
service agencies, and social service providers through the following actions:
Continues to work with other jurisdictions and the Collier County Housing Authority to
prioritize housing needs, provide services, and maximize the use of federal, state, and
local funds for affordable housing, community development, and related services.
Continues to participate in coordinated efforts for shelter and services assisting homeless
individuals and families.

The Collier County Hunger and Homeless Coalition (CCHHC) serves as the lead agency for Collier
County’s Continuum of Care. Members of the Continuum of Care provided input during
stakeholder interviews and in the project selection process. The CoC is responsible for
designating a Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) and a Lead Agency responsible
for its management and has primary responsibility for ensuring that Homeless Management
Information System (HMIS) is fully funded with appropriate policies and procedures, which were
last updated in 2020. The CoC also works closely Collier County (ESG recipient) to allocate funds
and monitor outcomes.

Coordination with private industry, businesses, developers, and social service agencies included
Individual consultations were conducted with affordable housing developers and the social
service agencies. The input received during these consultations informed the development of
priority needs and recommended strategies. For example, through consultations with
developers, it was determined that there remains insufficient access to affordable housing.
Likewise, developers have a difficult time finding developable land for affordable housing. The
Collier County staff that coordinated the development of the 2021 Consolidated Plan used the
Citizen Participation Plan as a guide for consultations. Consultations were conducted with public
and non-profit organizations. There were also several public advisory committees that were
consulted. Input received from the consultations informed the Needs Assessment, Market
Analysis, and Strategic Plan
Narrative (optional):
Combined, these agencies provide housing and supportive services to the community's special
needs populations, including persons with disabilities, homeless families and individuals, chronic
homeless persons, persons with HIV/AIDS, and the elderly. In addition to many of the agencies
listed above many of the groups and agencies that were consulted provided information during
the development of the plan.

1. Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen
participation.
Summarize citizen participation process and how it impacted goal setting.
Collier County staff worked with the community in developing goals and objectives. The
developed goals are a result of feedback from the community regarding issues to be resolved and
projects in need of funding. Collier County has an adopted Citizen Participation Plan to ensure
consistent outreach efforts. A community needs survey in English and Spanish was available to
residents, housing service providers. The survey ran from January 12, 2021 through February 5,
2021 and was advertised along with the community, meetings through a newspaper
advertisement and English and Spanish. A total of 536 surveys were collected. The community
survey was released online and promoted through the County’s Community and Human Services’
web-based resources. The survey respondents ranked helping families with children, providing
mortgage and ongoing rental assistance, increasing emergency shelter space/permanent
supportive housing, creating jobs in low-income neighborhoods, creating additional rental
housing, assisting human service agencies with facilities acquisition or improvements, and
housing services as high priorities and needs for the Collier County community.
All municipalities were encouraged to have active participation in preparation of the
Consolidated Plan by all residents who are affected by Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME), and Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) funds.
The Citizen Participation Plan outlines local responsibilities to provide opportunities for resident
involvement. In addition to the survey, residents were invited to participate in an open house to
learn about needs identified and strategies being considered to address those needs. Participants
were able to provide direct feedback. This feedback informed the selection of priority needs and
strategies for the Consolidated Plan, the identification of impediments to fair housing, and the
identification of regulatory barriers.

Community Profile and Needs
The Collier County Consolidated Plan relies upon multiple forms of qualitative and quantitative
data as well as community input in order to identify housing, homelessness, and community
development needs and trends. This picture of need is the basis of the proposed objectives and
outcomes for the 2021 Consolidated Plan. In addition to the US Census, updated American
Community Survey (ACS) data and community surveys that provides the foundation for
development of the document, the Cities of Naples, Everglades, and Marco Island built on the
work of several active committees and recent studies that addressed housing, homeless and
community development. The assessment was also informed by additional consultations with
city officials and other important stakeholders such as the Affordable Housing Advisory
Committee, United Way of Collier County, and the Collier County Homeless Coalition.
In 2020, the County’s economy has continued to diversify and improve, while at the same time
leaving many in the community still struggling to find jobs with wages to cover increasing housing
costs. There is a significant number of households who cannot meet the basic needs for food,
shelter, medical care, and transportation. In addition, there are a growing number of seniors,
persons with disabilities, and others who are unable to work. These factors, combined with a very
tight housing market, have resulted in many households paying more than they can afford, and
a growing number of persons experiencing homelessness. It is important to note that the impacts
of the COVID-19 are too recent to be reflected in the data used for the analysis provided below.
Population Growth
As noted in the 2019 Census American Community Survey, Collier County, Florida had a total
population of 384,902 of which 195,189 or 50.7% are female and 189,713 or 49.2% are males
when compared to 2010, County’s population was 322,472 with 162,493 or 50.3% of females and
159,979 or 49.6% of males. Therefore, reflecting a 19.3% population increase in the Collier
County. Population grew to 21,812 in Naples, 7.32% increase since 2010. The population also
increased in Marco Island to 17,834, a 5.14% increase since 2010. Last, Everglades City’s
population decreased to 190, a 41.89% decrease since 2010.
Age Distribution
The population of Collier County is aging. In 2010, there were 70,289 people aged 60 to 75 and
this grew to 87,043 in 2020. For the same period, there were 136,079 people under age 45 in
2010, which has also risen to 162,534 in 2020.
Racial and Ethnic Composition
Collier County is becoming increasingly racially and ethnically diverse. Latino residents are the
fastest growing population, representing 28.6% of the population in the County in 2019. While
11.5% of the population is non-white comprised of 28,704 African Americans, 6,961 Asians, 1,768
American Indian and Alaska Natives, and 6,414 multi-racial persons. %%%

As of 2020, family households still make up the largest percentage of households with 69.19%
(6,441 in Naples, 5,714 in Marco Island, and 57 in Everglades City) and of those, 10,194 of
households are single female- headed households. There has also been a significant increase in
single person households which now make up 30.80% of all households. The largest growth in
household type is non-family households which increased 12.24% between 2010 and 2020.
Average household size is 2.71 in Collier County.
Multigenerational living is defined as residing in a home with three or more generations.
According to Generations United, the past ten years have seen a remarkably large leap in
multigenerational living, from 7% of Americans 2011 to 26% of Americans in 2021. As noted in
the 2010 Census, Collier County had a total of 118,258 households of which 2.6% (3,022) were
living in multigenerational households. This data is collected during the decennial census every
ten years and this data is the most recent data available.

Income and Poverty
According to 2019 ACS, the median income of households in Collier County, Florida was $76,025.
An estimated 4.8% of households had income below $10,000 a year and 13.1% had income over
$200,000 or more. Although growing, the Median Household Income for Collier County is higher
than the US ($65,712) and our northern county, Lee County ($57,832). Further, there are many
residents in Collier County that are struggling, as evidenced by other indicators: 6.5% or 9,164
residents receive food stamp benefits (SNAP), 61% of students are eligible for free and reduced
lunch. Low wages also contribute to financial instability. In 2019, 48,825 individuals in Collier
County had incomes below 125%%of the poverty levels as indicated in the chart below.

Persons with Disabilities
According to the 2019 ACS, of the total population of 384,902 there were 47,569 people, or
12.3%, live with one or more disabilities. The highest reported disabilities include ambulatory at
6.3%, cognitive at 3.9%, and difficulty with independent living 5.2%.
Persons Experiencing Homelessness
The 2021 Point-in-Time Count (PIT) identified 568 people in Collier County experiencing
homelessness, a 5.8% decrease from 2020. Over 25% of this population, or 144 individuals, met
HUD’s definition of unsheltered. As a disclaimer, these numbers may be under reported due to
COVID. The 2021 PIT count also found that 169 persons experiencing homelessness were
seriously mentally ill, 198 reported substance abuse, 34 were veterans, 49 were seniors, and 49
were families with comprised of adults and 109 children. For FY 2021, Collier County reported
that 568 unduplicated individuals who were homeless received human services from one or more
agencies. During the 2020-2021 school year, the Collier County public school reported 805
homeless youth, includes students who are staying with friends or family. The reported number
includes 183 homeless youth (16 and older) who were unaccompanied.
Persons with Special Needs who are not Homeless
Limited new data exists specific to non-homeless special needs populations in Collier County.
There are numerous sub-populations in this community. Of those, there are some that have both
enough and unique housing and service needs that warrant identification. Those include the
following: families with children, seniors, ex-offenders, people with HIV/AIDS, victims of domestic
violence, people with drug and alcohol addictions, people who are evicted or foreclosed, people
with physical and mental disabilities, veterans, youth and young adults, and youth aging out of
foster care.
Employment and Economy
Economic conditions in Collier County have recovered significantly in the past decade, and the
County has emerged as a more diversified economy than it was before the Great Recession. The
number of jobs has grown steadily during the decade, and unemployment rates have remained
relatively low during recent years (below 3%). Wages have slightly risen 1.9% in the County as
reflected in the household earnings chart below:
Household Earnings 2017-2019

As of 2019, there were 166,353 (50.7%) persons in the labor force 16 years and older and 161,557
(49.3%) not in the labor force. According to 2019 ACS estimates, 4,929 or 1.5% of the total
population was unemployed.

While there have been recent and significant job losses as a result of COVID-19, it is unclear how
sustained these job losses will be as social distancing measures diminish. It is apparent however
that many people with limited incomes are experiencing financial instability as a result of recent
events.
Housing Units and Tenure
According to 2019 ACS estimates, the County had a total of 222,289 housing units. The majority
of the housing units are single family 1-unit detached unit structures at 90,552 (40.7%) of the
total units. The remainder consisting of 1-unit, attached at 15,145 (6.8%), 2-9 multi-family units
at 44,174 (20.1%), 10-20 multi-family units at 59,697 (26.9%) and a small share of
mobile/manufactured homes at 12,499 (5.6%) of the housing units.
Housing Cost Burden
While wages and incomes have continued to rise in recent years, they have not kept pace with
the cost of both owner and rental housing in Collier County. From 2010 to 2019, Median
Household Income increased 44% from 2010 at $52,730 to 2019 at $76,025. Housing costs in the
county area have risen more sharply since 2010, especially in recent years. According to 2019
ACS estimates, the County’s median home prices have increased by 44.8% between 2010 and
2019, reaching $370,000. The County’s median gross rental rates have also increased
substantially faster than incomes and the home values. Between 2010 and 2019, the median
rental rate rose to 48.3% from $942 in 2010 to $1,397 in 2019. As a result, many households pay
more for housing than is affordable, or are unable to afford any housing. Households paying more
than 30% of household income are considered to have a ‘housing cost burden’. A total of 9,545
of renters in Collier County have cost burdens greater than 30% but less than 50% of the Area
Median Income, while a total of 14,685 of homeowners have cost burdens greater than 30% but
less than 50% of the Area Median Income.
Housing Conditions and Lead Based Paint
Approximately 17% (37,852) of the total housing units were built prior to 1980 and may contain
lead-based paint. Approximately 37,852 homes pose potential lead-based paint hazards in Collier
County.
Despite the age of the housing stock, the physical condition of the housing in Collier County is
generally good, as there are relatively few housing units (1,715) in the area that are considered
substandard according to HUD. Based on input received during provider and public consultations,
units available to low-income residents tend to have more significant issues, and because of the
scarcity of affordable low-income housing, residents are reluctant to raise their concerns for fear
of losing the housing.

Needs Assessment
The Needs Assessment examines needs related to affordable housing, special needs housing,
community development and homelessness. With input from data and market analysis, as well
as community outreach and stakeholder consultation, the Needs Assessment identifies needs
that form the basis for the Strategic Plan section and future programs and projects to implement
the strategic plan.
NA-05 Overview
Needs Assessment Overview
Based on HUD provided figures, the following data indicates the number and percentage of
renters and homeowners who may be subject to housing problems, based on income level. The
current economic recession has substantially increased the number of households experiencing
housing problems and cost burdens.
HUD receives a “special tabulation” of data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community
Survey (ACS) that is largely not available through standard Census products. These “special
tabulation” data provide counts of the numbers of households that fit certain combinations of
HUD-specified criteria such as housing needs, HUD-defined income limits (primarily 30, 50, and
80% of area median income) and household types of particular interest to planners and
policymakers. This data, known as the Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS)
data, is used by local governments for housing planning and as part of the Consolidated Planning
process.
Assessing the specific housing needs of Collier County is critical to creating a realistic and
responsive affordable housing strategy. As such, an assessment of the County’s affordable rental
and single-family homes was conducted based on available demographic, economic and housing
data for Collier County utilizing HUD’s new eCon Planning Suite downloaded in the Integrated
Disbursement and Information System (IDIS). The eCon Planning Suite pre-populates the most
up-to-date housing and economic data available to assist jurisdictions identify funding priorities
in the Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan. Highlights of this assessment are provided in
this section.

In Collier County, the majority of those households experiencing a housing problem are cost burdened or severely cost burdened.
Households defined as “other” experience cost burden and severe cost burden at the highest rate. “Other” is a single person or a
nonfamily household, meaning several non-related individuals sharing a household.
Those small family households (2-4 family members) and those “other” households experience cost burden and severe cost burden at
similar rates. Within the 50-80% AMI bracket, nearly half of those households experiencing severe cost burden are elderly households.
This is most indicative of elderly homeowners that are living on a fixed income.

Table 11 – Crowding Information – 2/2
Describe the number and type of single person households in need of housing assistance.
Estimates of the number of single person households in need of housing assistance are not available for Collier County. In Tables 8
and 9 above, non-elderly single person households are included in the “other” households category, along with non-family households,
such as roommates or non-married partner households. Table 8 shows that there are an estimated 3,022 “other” renter households
and 1,773 “other” owner households with low or moderate incomes who spend more than 30% of their income on housing. Of these,
48% of renter households and 73% of owner households are also severely cost burdened, meaning that they spend over 50% of their
income on housing and may be in the need of housing assistance.
Estimate the number and type of families in need of housing assistance who are disabled or victims of domestic violence, dating
violence, sexual assault, and stalking.
According to the 2015-2019 5-Year American Community Survey, there are an estimated 42,528 disabled persons in Collier County,
comprising about 11.5% of its population. While housing need is not estimated for the disabled population, the ACS does provide
poverty rates by disability status, which can serve as an indicator of potential need, given that households with lower incomes are
more likely to have a housing problem. For persons aged 18 to 64, 25% of the disabled population (11,670 persons) is impoverished,
compared to 13% of the non-disabled population. For seniors, the poverty rate of disabled persons is 9% (1,983 persons) compared
to 6% for those without a disability. Thus, poverty rates suggest that disabled adults in Collier County would be more likely to have
difficulty affording housing than their non-disabled counterparts. Additionally, a limited supply of accessible housing, the cost of
making needed modifications, and the limited availability of supportive housing for persons with developmental or substance abuse
disabilities represent housing needs for the County’s disabled population.

According to the 2021 Point in Time Count, the County served 122 victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or
stalking who were in need of housing assistance. Input from housing and homeless services providers, however, indicates a continued
need for housing for domestic violence victims in Collier County. The Shelter for Abused Women & Children operates two 60-bed
emergency shelters in Naples and Immokalee as well as nine transitional living cottages in Naples. According to their 2019-2020
Impact Report, there were 1,686 Collier County domestic violence calls to 911 in 2019. As evidence of the continuing need for housing
for domestic violence victims, in its last fiscal year, The Shelter provided over 1,500 nights of housing to women and their children,
over 14,689 hours of counseling, and education regarding domestic abuse to more than 20,000 professionals and community
members.
What are the most common housing problems?
By far the most common housing problems in Collier County for both owners and renters are cost burdening and severe cost
burdening. Table 8 reveals that 13,977 low- and moderate-income renter households spend more than 30% of their income on
housing, as do 14,154 low- and moderate-income owner households. Taken together, there are 28,131 cost burdened households
with incomes below 80% AMI. Of these, 14,992 households have a severe cost burden (7,013 renters and 7,979 owners), comprising
31% of total low- and moderate-income households, as Table 9 displays. The high rates of cost burden indicate that many households
in the County are not able to adequately save for unexpected events and occasionally even planned expenses. It is important to
consider that cost burden impacts households across all income brackets. During stakeholder engagements, community members
consistently brought up the issue of limited housing options as a concern. This goes past just affordability, but includes accessibility,
proximity to household needs, and size. Households may often choose to be cost burdened in lieu of choosing a housing unit that
costs less than 30% of their income. This circumstance impacts low- and moderate-income households most often, and more
specifically renter households.
Crowding (more than one person per room) affects 2,618 renters and 994 owners with low and moderate incomes, or 9% of all
households in that income group (Table 10), a considerably lower share than are affected by cost burdens or severe cost burdens.
Substandard housing (lacking complete plumbing or kitchen facilities) affects the smallest number of low- and moderate-income
households in Collier County: 355 renters and 214 owners, or 2% of all households with incomes under 80% AMI, according to Table
7.
Staff opinion, consultation, and citizen participation demonstrated that the most common housing problems were deferred
maintenance, lack of income/savings for down payments, and poor credit scores. These are all consistent with the needs of cost burdened
households, and strategies such as housing rehabilitation and down payment assistance were identified as solutions to these problems.
Are any populations/household types more affected than others by these problems?

Households with incomes lower than 80% AMI are more affected by housing cost burdens and thus, have the greatest needs. The data in Table
8 reveals that 13,977 low- and moderate-income renter households spend more than 30% of their income on housing, as do 14,154
low- and moderate-income owner households. Over 31% of low-income households are severely cost burdened.
Describe the characteristics and needs of Low-income individuals and families with children (especially extremely low-income) who
are currently housed but are at imminent risk of either residing in shelters or becoming unsheltered 91.205(c)/91.305(c)). Also
discuss the needs of formerly homeless families and individuals who are receiving rapid re-housing assistance and are nearing the
termination of that assistance.
Individuals with an imminent risk of residing in shelters or becoming unsheltered typically have a combination of financial factors
present in their lives: lack of living wage job, rent consuming more than 30% of their income, and high childcare, medical, or
transportation costs. In addition to these factors, individuals at risk of homelessness will often have additional issues present such as
family conflicts, domestic violence, doubling up with family members, recent crisis, housing with code or safety violations, family
members with disabilities, criminal histories, history of mental health or chemical dependency, difficulty navigating systems to access
public benefits or community-based services, and prior experience with homelessness.
For formerly homeless families and individuals receiving rapid re-housing assistance but nearing the termination of that assistance,
key needs include access to Social Security disability and other benefits; stable employment or access to mainstream job training,
employment, and education programs; linkages to health and mental health services; convenient access to affordable childcare and
transportation; and continued case management and supportive services.
If a jurisdiction provides estimates of the at-risk population(s), it should also include a description of the operational definition of
the at-risk group and the methodology used to generate the estimates:
Collier County does not prepare estimates of its at-risk population. The Collier County Continuum of Care (CoC) uses HMIS to collect
and track data on housing and services to persons experiencing homelessness and who are at-risk of homelessness. The CoC utilizes
HUD’s official definition of at-risk for homelessness released in January 2012. There are three categories to the definition: Individuals
and Families; Unaccompanied Children and Youth, and Families with Children and Youth. The Collier County Hunger and Homeless
Coalition’s 2021 Point-in-Time Count of homeless persons identified 568 persons who are experiencing homelessness. Including
people staying temporarily with family or friends, in a hotel or motel, or sharing a home on a more or less permanent basis with
another family, often living in crowded or inadequate conditions, this number increases to 1,373 persons experiencing
homelessness.

Specify particular housing characteristics that have been linked with instability and an increased risk of homelessness.
The characteristic most closely linked to housing instability is a household’s financial circumstance. Cost burden places households in
a situation where unexpected expenses or sheer time of deficit spending may cause a household to become homeless. The United
Way Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed (ALICE) Report found that 30% of Collier County households earn the ALICE survival
budget or less. The ALICE Report looks at working families and their ability to afford basic needs for the households such as food,
clothing, healthcare, transportation, housing, taxes, etc. As cost of housing is a single variable, there are others, too, that may place a
household in a vulnerable financial position and increase the chance of becoming homeless. A household that incurs childcare costs
that ultimately earns less than 80% of the area median income is at-risk. Additionally, the frequent moves of families who are homeless
or at risk of homelessness has placed additional barriers to educational attainment for children. The high housing costs puts household
at risk of homelessness at any given time, it is impossible to know which of those households will experience domestic violence, the
loss of a job, a death, a health event, or another adverse circumstance that can trigger homelessness. It is extremely difficult to predict
the next homeless cases among those who are currently housed.
Low incomes and high housing cost burdens are two housing characteristics linked with instability and an increased risk of
homelessness. Renters with incomes under 30% AMI and housing costs burdens over 50% are at risk of homelessness, especially if
they experience a destabilizing event such as a job loss, reduction in hours, or medical emergency/condition. Additionally, families or
individuals doubling up with other, unrelated households are at an increased risk of homelessness. In Collier County, there are 3,774
extremely low-income renter households (under 30% AMI) spending more than 50% of their income on housing. Collier County also
has 770 households comprised of multiple, unrelated families living together in overcrowded conditions.
Households with members that are elderly, have a disability, or require regular supportive services are also at greater risk. These
households, no matter the income bracket, often spend more financial resources on care for these individuals. The care may require
time away from work by a family member or require hired help or fee-for-service. In any case, these households are more financially
vulnerable; if these households are also earning less than 80% of the area median income, the data shows that this household is likely
also cost burdened. These types of households are at increased risk of homelessness.

NA-15 Disproportionately Greater Need: Housing Problems – 91.205 (b)(2)
Assess the need of any racial or ethnic group that has disproportionately greater need in comparison to the needs of that category
of need as a whole.
Introduction
HUD defines a disproportionately greater number of housing problems by a racial or ethnic group as when a group experiences housing
problem at a rate more than 10% greater than the income group as a whole. The data summarizes the percentage of each minority
group experiencing any of the four housing problems: cost burden (paying more than 30% of income for housing); overcrowding (more
than one person per room); and lacking complete kitchen facilities or complete plumbing facilities (substandard housing). Income
classifications are defined as: extremely low-income (under 30% of HAMFI); low-income (between 30 and 50%); moderate-income
(between 50 and 80%); and middle-income (between 80 and 100%). The 2011-2015 CHAS data provided in the tables below include
households with or more of the following housing problems:
lack of complete kitchen facilities
lack of complete plumbing facilities
overcrowding (i.e., more than one person per room)
cost burden greater than 30% (i.e., spending more than 30% of income on housing-related costs).
0%-30% of Area Median Income
77% of households in Collier County , at extremely low incomes, have one or more housing problems (8,480 as shown in Table 12).
Whites and American Indian, Alaska Native are somewhat less likely to experience a housing need (72% and 50%, respectively), while
African Americans, Asians, and Hispanics are more so (84-92%). At 0-30% of Area Median Income, Asians (92%) have a
disproportionately greater need than the jurisdiction as a whole.

incomes households face one or more housing problems. Six groups experience a disproportionately greater incidence of housing
needs than the county as a whole. They include low income (30-50% AMI) African American households (of whom 84% face a housing

Overall, severe housing problems are most acute at lower income levels. A little over two-thirds (69%) of Collier County households
with incomes below 30% AMI face a severe need, as do 69% in the 30-50% AMI income range. As incomes increase, rates of severe
housing problems lessen, dropping to 21% at the 50-80% AMI income level and 14% at the 80-100% AMI level. African American
households face disproportionately high rate of severe housing needs at three income levels: low, moderate, and middle incomes.
Asians are disproportionately affected by severe housing needs at the very low and moderate level incomes.
NA-25 Disproportionately Greater Need: Housing Cost Burdens – 91.205 (b)(2)
Assess the need of any racial or ethnic group that has disproportionately greater need in comparison to the needs of that category
of need as a whole.
Introduction:
Per HUD definitions, a “disproportionate need” exists when any group has a housing need that is 10% or higher than the jurisdiction
as a whole. A household is considered cost burdened when they are paying more than 30% of their income towards housing costs,
including utilities. This section analyzes the extent of cost burden and identifies populations that are disproportionately affected.

Discussion:
According to Table 20, 19% of households in Collier County spend 30-50% of their income on housing-related costs. African American
and Latino households are more likely to spend within this range when compared to the jurisdiction overall (26% and 28%,
respectively). No racial or ethnic group is disproportionately likely to fall within this category.
Severely cost burdened households (i.e., households spending more than 50% of their income on housing) account for 16% of Collier
County households, an estimated 17,399 households county wide. Rates of severe cost burdening by race and ethnicity range from
18% for Whites to 30% for African Americans, not including Pacific Islander households, of whom zero face severe cost burdens. African
Americans are the only group to face a disproportionately high rate of severe cost burdening (30% versus 16% for the jurisdiction as a
whole).
Combining the 30-50% and over 50% cost ranges shows that there is a total of 48,049 cost burdened households in Collier County,
which constitutes 35% of the county’s total households. By race and ethnicity, rates of cost burdening range from 13% for American
Indians/Alaska Natives to 53% for African Americans. Two groups are disproportionately likely to be cost burdened: African Americans
(53% or 2,644 households) and Hispanics (48% or 9,329 households).

NA-30 Disproportionately Greater Need: Discussion – 91.205(b)(2)
Are there any Income categories in which a racial or ethnic group has disproportionately greater need than the needs of that income
category as a whole?
The data in the Disproportionately Greater Need section of this document (NA-15 through NA-25) reflects that there are certain races
and/or ethnicities that experience housing problems and cost burden at disproportionately higher rates as compared to all households
within their same income bracket. This does not imply that explicit/overt policies or actions are being taken to create a market where
minorities are not able to afford a quality home or a home at all. What the data in sections Needs Assessment -15 and -20 above more
so reflect is the discrepancy in household income of minority populations as compared to the city as a whole. This discrepancy could
be caused by a wide range of variables, but in any case, the end result is that a large number of minority households across all income
brackets experience housing problems and/or cost burden at rates higher than their non-minority neighbors.
Tables 12 through 20 identify several instances of disproportionately greater need, which are summarized below:
1. Housing Problems - At moderate incomes (50-80% AMI), African Americans and Asians face a disproportionate need
(67% and 86%, respectively, compared to 53% for the jurisdiction as a whole. Finally, at middle incomes, no group has
a disproportionately greater need than the jurisdiction as a whole.
2. Severe Housing Problems – African American households face disproportionately high rate of severe housing needs at
three income levels: low, moderate, and middle incomes. Asians are disproportionately affected by severe housing
needs at the very low and moderate level incomes.
3. Housing Cost Burdens - Two groups are disproportionately likely to be cost burdened: African Americans (53% or 2,644
households) and Hispanics (48% or 9,329 households).
If they have needs not identified above, what are those needs?
There is a need for greater distribution of affordable housing across all areas of the County. The primary housing-related needs are
identified above and are reflected through the high number of households experiencing cost burden. An extremely low vacancy rate
allows landlords, understanding that rental units will not stay vacant long, greater control. This very tight housing market
disproportionately impacts low- and moderate-income households as a tight market has contributed to an increasingly expensive one.
As rates increase, the portion of housing units on the market for low- and moderate-income residents becomes smaller and smaller.
Compounding this, as noted above, minority households often earn less than white households. As minority households earn less and

have fewer options for rental units, these low- and moderate-income minority populations are vulnerable to landlord-tenant disputes
or discrimination in searching for a unit to rent or purchase.
Are any of those racial or ethnic groups located in specific areas or neighborhoods in your community?
According to the 2010 Census, Collier County’s minority population (including African American, Latino, Asian, Pacific Islander, and
Native American/Alaska Native residents) is most heavily concentrated in five census tracts in the Immokalee area, where minority
residents constitute over 90% of the population. The majority of the residents in these tracts are Latino, and the second largest share
are African American.

Six other tracts have minority population shares above 50%. They include four tracts in Golden Gate, one in Naples Manor, and one in
Naples near the Gordon River Apartments. In the census tract that includes the Gordon River Apartments, the majority of residents
are African American; in the remaining tracts, Latinos make up the largest share.

In summary, the African American and Latino Census Block maps display unique challenges faced by the segregated living patterns in
Immokalee and Golden Gate and Naples Manor, that are also in transition. The unique challenges should be considered in examining
strategies to invest and preserve neighborhoods, while also fostering more inclusive choices of housing county wide.
NA-35 Public Housing – 91.205(b)
Introduction
The Collier County Housing Authority (CCHA) is an independent authority established under state law and is separate from the general
control of the County. The mission of the CCHA is to offer a choice of decent safe and diverse affordable housing, with opportunity for
low- income households to achieve economic independence in living environments free from discrimination. The Authority fulfills this
mission by offering a variety of subsidized housing options to low-income residents of Collier County. The CCHA owns and manages
four public housing developments: 276 units of low-income housing in Farm Worker Village, 315 units of farm labor housing also in
Farm Worker Village, 30 units of farm labor housing known as Collier Village and a 192-bed dormitory known as Horizon Village. In
addition, the Authority serves an estimated 3100 plus people through the administration of the Section 8 rental assistance program
and Family Self Sufficiency Program to provide support services targeted to low, elderly, disabled and homeless that live in Collier
County.
The Housing Authority also administers approximately 4 Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers. Unlike most public housing authorities,
CCHA has no HUD-funded public housing units. Their primary funding is from The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

Section 504 Needs Assessment: Describe the needs of public housing tenants and applicants on
the waiting list for accessible units:
Of the CCHA’s 440 Housing Choice Voucher holders, 105 (24%) were disabled and 161 (37%) were
over the age of 62 according to the HUD PIC data displayed in the tables above. These resident
characteristics indicate a significant need for accessible housing units. When interviewed for
input related to this plan, CCHA staff underscored this need, characterizing the existing housing
stock in the County as having very few accessible units. Another need of people with disabilities
who may be CCHA residents or on the waiting list is transportation. Enhanced paratransit and
regular bus service would assist these residents in being better able to access services.
Most immediate needs of residents of Public Housing and Housing Choice voucher holders
The most immediate needs of CCHA’s clients are for more affordable housing options,
transportation, and childcare. Despite the Housing Choice Vouchers and farmworker housing
available through CCHA, there are approximately 1,000 applicants on the voucher waiting list and
the list is closed. Rents in the private market are increasing and vouchers cannot keep pace,
causing even those with vouchers to have difficulty finding affordable housing.
Transportation, both paratransit and regular bus service is an additional need. Routes and hours
are limited, making it difficult for voucher holders to access or maintain employment. There are
a few programs in the area that provide assistance with the cost of childcare, which is necessary
for parents of young children who need to work or look for work. These existing programs work
well but cannot meet the high level of need.
How do these needs compare to the housing needs of the population at large?
The needs of public housing residents and housing choice voucher holders are largely consistent
with the needs of the low- and moderate-income population at large. In the general population,
tenants are concerned about the quality and affordability of their existing housing. Without the
housing subsidies and other supports provided by CCHA, some of the affordability issues faced
by the general population are even more acute.

NA-40 Homeless Needs Assessment – 91.205(c)Introduction:
A variety of housing and shelter models are available within the community including emergency shelter (ES), transitional housing
(TH), permanent supportive housing (PSH), rapid re-housing (RRH).:
This section provides an assessment of Collier County’s homeless population and their needs. Data is provided by the Hunger and
Homeless Coalition’s 2021 Point in Time Counts (PITC) of sheltered and unsheltered homeless persons in Collier County.
If data is not available for the categories "number of persons becoming and exiting homelessness each year," and "number of days
that persons experience homelessness," describe these categories for each homeless population type (including chronically
homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth):
The Collier County Hunger and Homeless Coalition conducts an annual Point-in-Time Count of homeless persons in Collier County in
January of each year. Volunteers for the count included members of the civic and business community, homeless and formerly
homeless individuals, and CoC member agency staff. Volunteers attended a training session prior to the count.
The table that follows provides the results of the Hunger and Homeless Coalition’s 2021 Point-in-Time Count. As shown, there were
568 homeless persons counted in 2021. In 2021, veterans constituted 5.6% (34 persons), up slightly (29 persons) from the prior year.
As of 2021, the largest share of homeless persons was either persons with chronic substance abuse issues (34.85%), individuals with
serious mental illness (29.75%), victims of domestic violence (21.47%), and seniors made up 8.6% of the homeless population. These
numbers are indicative of a need for housing with supportive services for both persons with disabilities and persons with substance
abuse issues.
Youth made up a significant share of Collier County’s homeless population. According to the 2021 point-in-time count, on the night of
the count, 19.19% or 48 households with 109 children were homeless. Of these 109 children, 53 were in emergency shelter, 44 were in transitional
shelter and 12 were unsheltered., which was 21% in 2020.
In addition to the Point-in-Time Counts, homeless youth are also counted by the public schools’ liaison for homeless education, who
reported serving 805 homeless students. In addition to children who met HUD’s definition of homeless, this count also includes
children in families doubling-up with another household, unaccompanied youth staying with friends or family, and children awaiting
foster care placement.
A person is considered “chronically homeless” when they experience homelessness for a period of 12 consecutive months, or
experience four episodes of homelessness within the past three years that total 12 or more months and have a long-term disability.

Patterns of homelessness reflect those who are unable to self-resolve their homelessness, are experiencing chronic homelessness,
and who are not being adequately served by existing homeless system resources and capacity. Data was not available for 2021, but
prior year data was used to draw comparisons of chronic homelessness and to portray a snapshot of this issue within the County. The
number of chronically homeless people decreased from 88 in 2019 to 80 in 2020. As a share of the total homeless population,
chronically homeless persons decreased from previous years in which the share fluctuated from increased.
Address coordinated assessment
Coordinated Entry is a streamlined system designed to efficiently match people experiencing homelessness or those at-risk of
homelessness to available housing, shelter, and services. It prioritizes those who are most in need of assistance and provides
crucial information that helps the Continuum of Care strategically allocate resources.

According to the 2021 Point-in-Time Count, 109 children (under 18) were homeless, which
represents 19.19% of the total homeless population counted. There were 34 or 5.98% of
homeless veterans were counted.
Describe the Nature and Extent of Homelessness by Racial and Ethnic Group.
Race and Ethnicity data was not available for the most recent point-in-time count conducted in
2021. The most recent data available on race and ethnicity was reported in the in the 2020 CoC
Homeless Assistance Programs Homeless Populations and Subpopulations Report. The report
shows that in 2020 there was a total of 603 homeless persons of which 475 were White, 85 were
black, 23 were Multi-racial, 6 were Asian, and 14 were American Indian or Alaska Native. The
data also revealed that there were 54 Hispanic/Latino persons who were homeless.
Describe the Nature and Extent of Unsheltered and Sheltered Homelessness.
As of the 2021 count, a large majority of Collier County’s homeless population was sheltered
(74.67%), with 25.35% unsheltered. Of the sheltered population, most (43.13%) were in an
emergency shelter. These percentages were increases from the 2021 point-in-count numbers for
shelter and unsheltered individuals.
NA-45 Non-Homeless Special Needs Assessment - 91.205 (b, d)
Introduction:
Non-homeless special needs characteristics describe the various subpopulations of Collier County
who are not homeless but may require supportive services, including.
• elderly,
• frail elderly,
• persons with disabilities (mental, physical, developmental),
• persons with HIV/AIDS,
• persons with alcohol or drug addiction,
• victims of domestic violence,
• persons with a criminal record,
• those who have limited English proficiency,
• and those who are transportation disadvantaged.
Persons belonging to this population may have additional needs before, during, and after an
incident in functional areas including but not limited to maintaining independence,
communication, transportation, supervision, and medical care. The section below will describe
why identifying the characteristics and needs of these sub-populations is essential to the planning
process for these federal dollars.

Describe the characteristics of special needs populations in your community:
Both the elderly and persons with disabilities have difficulties in finding accessible and affordable
housing. In addition to housing, these populations are challenged to find transportation and
other supportive services. Persons with alcohol and other drug addiction problems often have
difficulty finding resources and treatment facilities including the lack of a central point reference
for persons seeking assistance. Persons living with HIV/AIDS are more likely to have income
instability because of their medical condition and this can lead to the increased likelihood of
homelessness. The needs of victims of domestic violence can vary to include shelter, transitional,
and long-term housing, medical, counseling, and legal services.
What are the housing and supportive service needs of these populations and how are these
needs determined?
The primary housing and supportive needs of these subpopulations (the elderly, frail elderly,
persons with disabilities, persons with HIV/AIDS and their families, persons with alcohol or drug
addiction, victims of domestic violence, and persons with a criminal record and their families)
were determined by input from both service providers and the public through the survey, public
meetings, and stakeholder interviews. These needs include affordable, safe housing
opportunities in areas with access to transportation and paratransit, commercial and job centers,
and social services including counseling, case management, and subsidies for childcare, and for
education regarding fair housing rights and actions that can be taken in the event those rights
are violated. Persons with disabilities often require accessible features and ground floor housing
units and use of supportive/therapeutic animals. Victims of domestic violence need safe housing,
removal of barriers to relocation, and protection from perpetrators. Persons with criminal
records and their families may be disqualified from public housing or Section 8 rental assistance,
and accordingly, assistance with housing for low-income members of this subpopulation must be
provided by other nongovernmental organizations. Interviews with stakeholders and residents
indicated that residents with alcohol and substance abuse histories, as well as victims of domestic
violence may have criminal records.
While the scope of supportive services varies based upon an individual’s characteristics, the
following is a list of services commonly needed by non-homeless people with special needs.
These services may be provided either on- or off-site:
Accessible Housing Crisis Hotline Health Care
Advocacy, referral,
information
Education Legal Assistance
Case Management Employment Training
Childcare Family & Caregiver Support

Discuss the size and characteristics of the population with HIV/AIDS and their families within
the Eligible Metropolitan Statistical Area:
Knowing how many people diagnosed with HIV infection each year, and their stage of disease at
diagnosis, is important for planning and resource allocation and for monitoring trends and
disparities between groups. Similarly, monitoring HIV incidence is critical for allocating resources
and evaluating the effectiveness of HIV testing and other prevention programs. Improved
surveillance methods allow resources to be better directed for programs and resources to the
populations most affected. According to the Florida Department of Health, there were 263
persons with HIV (PWH) compared to the state of Florida at 548.6 for all modes of exposure and
age groups. The rate of diagnosis for the County was 9.8 compared to 21.6 for the state of Florida
for all modes of exposure and age groups.
NA-50 Non-Housing Community Development Needs – 91.215 (f)
Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Facilities:
The top needs for public facilities in Collier County include the need for:
• drainage improvements,
• sewer improvements,
• street improvements,
• and water system improvements,
• as senior centers,
• youth centers
• libraries
Residents described that Collier County has put in sufficient efforts to ensure that there are equal
resources like parks, public safety facilities, and recreational facilities throughout the County.
The Needs Assessment included public facilities and improvements that are eligible for CDBG
grant funding: facilities that principally serve low- and moderate-income residents or are located
in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. Although not limited to these needs, the following
were identified as needs in the jurisdictions through focus groups and community and agency
surveys:
• Improving facilities for human service agencies
• Increasing development of childcare facilities
• Improving substandard or deteriorated properties
• Making improvements to public infrastructure (streets, curbs, sewer, and stormwater
systems)

This priority was also supported during stakeholder meetings.
How were these needs determined?
Public facilities needs were identified through a community assessment survey distributed to
the public and a virtual public needs assessment meeting held during a virtual public meeting.
Other resources consulted were prior plans and progress reports from Collier County.
Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Improvements:
Demolition or redevelopment of blighted properties was seen by Collier County residents as an
important need. Additionally, the Collier Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) has
undertaken several subarea studies of bicycle and pedestrian mobility in communities
throughout the County. Though only a few individual communities have been studied to date,
the MPO reports have indicated significant needs for sidewalks, bike lanes, and pedestrian safety
improvements. For example, in Naples Manor, the MPO report graded the community with an
overall level of service of D. of 31 streets in the community, only one had sidewalks on both sides
of the road. The proximity of Lely High School and Parkside Elementary School to the area
heighten the need for public improvements. Improved street lighting and the addition of street
furniture, such as benches and signs, was often a frequent recommendation as well. Similar
findings were contained in a separate MPO report on the Immokalee area.
How were these needs determined?
Public improvement needs were identified through a community assessment survey distributed
to the public and a virtual public needs assessment meeting held during a virtual public meeting.
Other resources consulted were prior plans and progress reports from Collier County.
Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Services:
Survey respondents identified the following public services as high needs: need for social services
for low-income seniors, youth, mentally and physically disabled persons.
a) Rental Assistance - Tenant subsidies exclusively for rental payments for eligible clients. These
services could financial assistance to pay rent or utilities.
b) Senior Services – Services that are exclusively provided for elderly persons with or without
disabilities provided it is intended primarily to serve elderly. These services could include case
management for staff working primarily with the elderly.
c) Youth Services - Services that are exclusively provided for young people aged 13 to 19. For
example, recreational services limited to teenagers and teen counseling programs.
d) Childcare Services - Services that will benefit children (generally under age 13), including
parenting skills classes.
e) Services for Mentally Ill - Services addressing the mental health needs of residents of the
community. These services could include case management for staff working primarily with the
persons with mental illness.

Housing Market Analysis
MA-05 Overview
Housing Market Analysis Overview:
The housing market analysis contained in this report was developed by using primarily using data
from the American Community Survey, CHAS, and other sources noted in the tables. The
following information is based on the Census' American Community Survey 2011-2015. Numbers
shown represent the Collier County. The total number of housing structures shown in the "All
Residential Properties by Number of Units" table includes mobile homes and recreational
vehicles, some of which may not be considered housing units by HUD. Of the 163,293 units in the
County, 46% consist of two or more bedrooms. One-bedroom units are the smallest category of
housing units. The rest is divided into single unit attached structures and multiple unit apartment
buildings.
While housing opportunities can be limited by household income and purchasing power, the lack
of affordable housing options can result in a significant hardship for low-income households,
preventing them from meeting other basic needs. Low-income residents often have fewer
financial resources available for making monthly rent or mortgage payments. Those low-income
residents who do choose to purchase a home must keep even more funds available for taxes,
insurance, homeowners association fees, and home maintenance and repairs. Because home
ownership requires significant investment for most residents, many low- and moderate-income
households choose to rent their homes as opposed to purchasing one. Under most residential
property leases, this option calls for less responsibility and less investment from the home
occupant than if they were to purchase a home.

Introduction
This section explores the number and types of housing units in Collier County and whether or not
the number of available units is sufficient to meet housing demand for the County.
Data provided by the 2011-2015 ACS, as shown in Table 26, reveals 48% of the County’s housing
stock was of single-family configuration with attached and detached unit structures. Of the

Describe the number and targeting (income level/type of family served) of units assisted with
federal, state, and local programs.
The County administers a variety of housing programs to assist low- and moderate-income
residents to afford and maintain housing. These are funded primarily through federal Community
Development Block Grant and the HOME Investment Partnerships programs, through which the
County utilizes public funds to address the priority needs and specific objectives identified in the
Consolidated Plan.
The lack of affordable housing in the County is a major obstacle for residents. This lack of
affordable housing particularly affects low- and moderate-income households, seniors, people
with disabilities, single head of households, and young adults. To foster the development of
affordable housing, the County utilizes HOME resources to expand housing opportunities.
Provide an assessment of units expected to be lost from the affordable housing inventory for
any reason, such as expiration of Section 8 contracts.
There are no anticipated losses of affordable housing inventory. Some affordable housing units have
been lost due to the vast changes in the housing market. Homes lost to foreclosure or those that are
short sold may be acquired by a bank or investor. Many times, these are resold with no homebuyer
assistance or for rental properties, so the owner-occupied market has changed as a result. This makes
affordable homeowner units a scarcity. At this time, none of the publicly funded and assisted units
are anticipated to be lost during the 5-year Consolidated Plan period extending through 2021.
Does the availability of housing units meet the needs of the population?
Consultations with housing service providers and community meetings revealed that there
remains a need for one-bedroom units for individuals exiting homelessness as well as two- and
three-bedroom apartments for very low and extremely low-income families.
Describe the need for specific types of housing:
There is a need for safe, sanitary, accessible, and affordable housing throughout the County.
Specifically, there is a strong need for housing affordable to households earning less than 50%
of the median income, and practical options are needed to ensure the availability of accessible
units for the elderly and people with physical disabilities. The type of housing that is needed,
includes varied options, whether those be single family detached or multifamily units, are needed to
meet the demands of the population as well as to address the forecasted growth.

MA-15 Housing Market Analysis: Cost of Housing - 91.210(a)
Introduction
The following tables reflect the cost of both owner and renter-occupied housing in Collier County.
These tables use 2011-2015 ACS data from HUD’s eCon Software. There have been significant
changes in housing prices in recent years which are not fully captured in this data and will be
discussed at the end of this section.
In Collier, the 2020 Fair Market Rent (FMR) for a two-bedroom apartment was $1,381. In order
to afford this level of rent and utilities, without paying more than 30% of income on housing, a
household must earn $4,603 monthly or $55,240 annually. Assuming a 40-hour work week, 52
weeks per year, a resident must work at least 124 hours per week at minimum wage to afford a
two-bedroom unit. The monthly rent affordable at minimum wage for a 40-hour work week in
the County is $406, less than half of the actual Fair Market Rent.
The table reflecting the amount of rent paid by residents of the County demonstrates that 49.7%
of rental units rent for between $500 and $999 per month, while 14.1% of rental units rent for
less than $500 per month. The Housing Affordability table also shows that there were 1,275 units
available to households earning below 30% of the county’s HUD Area Median Family Income
(HAMFI).

Is there sufficient housing for households at all income levels?
There is not a sufficient supply for low- and moderate-income households in Collier County. This
is evident through cost burden data that considers median household income as compared to
median rental rates and home values. A significant lack of affordable housing exists particularly
for the approximately one in four households that are at the low or very-low-income levels. The

Consolidated Plan COLLIER COUNTY 87
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
table above shows that there is insufficient housing for extremely low- and low-income
households in the County. Based on 2019 ACS data there are an estimated 6,273 very-low-
income households in Collier, but only 1,275 affordable rental units at 30% HAMFI.
Collier County conducts an apartment study quarterly to look at pricing trends and needs.
Additionally, the County also produces a housing demand model annually to keep a pulse on the
number of units needs within the County. Below is a snapshot of the report.
How is affordability of housing likely to change considering changes to home values and/or
rents?
Affordability in Collier County has decreased because the cost of housing continues to increase
and the availability of land decreases. According to Zillow (2021), the typical home value of
homes in Collier County is $381,207. This value is seasonally adjusted and only includes the
middle price tier of homes. When compared to the 2019 ACS estimates, the County’s median
value was $370,800, which is a 2.8% increase. According to the National Low Income Housing
Coalition’s 2020 Out of Reach Report, the County’s Fair Market Rent for a two-bedroom was
$1,381 when compared to the 2019 ACS estimates the median rent was $1,397, which is a slight
decrease of 1.14%. Another compounding factor adversely affecting affordability is unit vacancy
rate. According to the 2019 ACS, the rental unit vacancy rate for Collier County was 7.1% while
the owner-occupied unit vacancy rate was 3.5%. It should be noted that production of new units
became available in the high-end rental market which could cause the vacancy rate to trend
higher than normal overall, but the vacancy rate in the low-income rental market is less 3%
according to the Quarterly Apartment Survey, conducted by Community and Human Services
staff.
How do HOME rents / Fair Market Rent compare to Area Median Rent? How might this impact
your strategy to produce or preserve affordable housing?
As actual rental rates have continued to rise, they are outpacing the HUD-established fair market
rents (FMRs). The FMR and HOME high rents are substantially below the 2019 median rental

Consolidated Plan COLLIER COUNTY 88
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
rates as reported by Zillow. As reflected in the following charts, the 2020 High HOME rents and
Fair Market Rents for efficiencies, one-, two-, and three-bedroom units in the Naples-Immokalee-
Marco Island, Florida MSA are the similar as the Area Median Rent, and comparable for four-
bedroom units. However, as detailed above, housing costs in the County are increasing at higher
rates than incomes. As housing construction and rehabilitation costs rise, it will be increasingly
difficult to produce much needed affordable housing.
Rent Reasonableness allows Collier County to provide housing for units up to 10% over the Fair
Market Rent rate.
HOME Rent Limits
Discussion
As housing costs continue to rise, so does the demand for housing that is affordable to low-
income households, particularly rental housing for the very low and extremely low-income
households. The County will need to consider new and innovative ways to meet this demand.
MA-20 Housing Market Analysis: Condition of Housing – 91.210(a)
Introduction
The age and condition of a county’s housing stock are important variables in assessing the overall
characteristics of the local housing market. This section will review important data about the
county’s housing stock. The older housing stock, particularly older rental housing often has code
and deferred maintenance issues that can impact the longevity of the housing structure which in
turn impacts the housing supply in terms of accessibility and affordability.

Standard Condition: No major structural defects; adequate plumbing and kitchen facilities;
appearance which does not create a blighting influence; and the house meets additional, more
stringent, local standards and building codes, including lead-based paint clearance. Such units
may be eligible for housing rehabilitation funding if interior conditions are such that the HUD
Section 8 Housing Quality Standards or other standards are not met. Examples of ways in which
the interiors of such homes might be rehabilitated include the replacement of heating systems,
electrical system repairs or upgrades, plumbing system repairs or upgrades, energy efficiency
improvements, and accessibility improvements.
Substandard Condition but Suitable for Rehabilitation: This category describes dwelling units that
do not meet standard conditions but that are both financially and structurally feasible for
rehabilitation. Such units may be lacking complete plumbing or kitchen facilities and/or may have
exterior elements in need of repair (e.g., a roof in need of replacement, siding in need of repair
or replacement, or a missing/failing foundation), and the unit value must exceed the cost of the
repairs or upgrades required to bring it to standard condition.
Substandard Condition but Suitable for Rehabilitation: The nature of the substandard condition
makes rehabilitation both financially and structurally feasible. Such units will typically have an
improvement value that is less than the cost of addressing the habitability and exterior elements
that cause its classification as “substandard,” or will be considered to be unoccupiable for reasons
of safety by the county’s building official.
Housing Conditions: Condition of units is assessed using the same criteria as in the Needs
Assessment. This includes: 1) lacks complete plumbing facilities, 2) lacks complete kitchen
facilities, 3) more than one person per room, 4) cost burden (amount of income allocated to
housing) is greater than 30%, and 5) complies with applicable building code standards.

Need for Owner and Rental Rehabilitation
The age of the housing stock in Collier County will continue to have a significant impact on general
housing conditions in the area. The 2019 ACS data shows that only 16.73% of the county’s
housing stock was built prior to 1970. Owner and renter households, especially those located in
low-income target neighborhoods will be in need of rehabilitation assistance to maintain their
homes. As housing ages, maintenance costs rise, which can present significant costs for low- and
moderate- income homeowners. This also poses a threat to low- and moderate- income tenants
who are not able to maintain close communications with their landlords or property managers
who may be out of state when repairs are needed.
Estimated Number of Housing Units Occupied by Low- or Moderate-Income Families with LBP
Hazards
Exposure to lead-based paint represents one of the most significant environmental threats from
a housing perspective. Lead is a highly toxic metal that may cause a range of health problems for
adults, and especially for children. The major source of lead exposure comes from lead-
contaminated dust found in deteriorating buildings. Many residential properties built before
1978 contain lead-based paint. Unfortunately, measuring the exact number of housing units with
lead-based paint hazards is difficult. HUD regulations regarding lead-based paint apply to all
federally assisted housing. Low-income households that earn between 0-50% Median Family
Income (MFI) are least able to afford well maintained housing and, therefore, are often at greater
risk of lead poisoning.

Introduction
Collier County Housing Authority (CCHA) provides housing assistance to low-income residents
through the management of the areas Housing Choice Voucher Program - Section 8. This program
is income based and the eligibility requirements are set by HUD. The CCHA has been committed
to providing safe, decent, and affordable housing to low-income residents in Collier County since
1966. The CCHA administers a number of programs, such as the Far Worker Housing, the Housing
Choice Voucher Program, and the Family Self-Sufficiency Program, to promote self-sufficiency
and economic opportunity for local residents.

Describe the supply of public housing developments:
The CCHA owns and manages four public housing developments: 276 units of low-income
housing in Farm Worker Village, 315 units of farm labor housing also in Farm Worker Village, 30
units of farm labor housing known as Collier Village and a 192-bed dormitory known as Horizon
Village. In addition, CCHA serves an over 3,100 persons through the administration of the Section
8 rental assistance program and Family Self Sufficiency Program to provide support services to
low, elderly, disabled, and homeless persons living in Collier County.
Describe the number and physical condition of public housing units in the jurisdiction,
including those that are participating in an approved Public Housing Agency Plan:
HUD's Real Estate Assessment Center conducts physical inspections of properties that are owned,
insured, or subsidized by HUD, including public housing and multifamily assisted housing.
However, because the public housing units in Collier County are funded by USDA and not HUD,
they are neither inspected by the Real Estate Assessment Center nor are they covered by a Public
Housing Agency Plan. The Housing Choice Vouchers are tenant-based and the properties at which
the vouchers are used vary significantly in physical condition.

Describe the restoration and revitalization needs of public housing units in the jurisdiction:
The CCHA was awarded a SHIP Rental Acquisition grant to buy properties in Naples to rent to
low-income families. This project will be financed in part by the State Housing Initiative Program
(SHIP) and the Collier County Community and Human Services Division. The CCHA has also applied
for rehabilitation grant through the Collier County Community and Human Services Division to
rehab older units. Additionally, the Housing Authority also receive money from the HOME and
CDBG program to add HVAC units in Immokalee.
Describe the public housing agency's strategy for improving the living environment of low-
and moderate-income families residing in public housing:
The CCHA also sponsors and supports self-sufficiency programs focused at helping their residents
improve their economic situation and quality of living. The programs, ROSS and FSS, are voluntary
self-sufficiency programs that provide participating families the opportunity to identify needs,
improve skill sets, and work towards life goals, economic independence, and housing self-
sufficiency programs provide families with:
• A plan specifically tailored to their family or individual goals.

Many social service agencies in Collier County provide benefits to homeless individuals and
families to address homelessness. These services are essential to facilitate the process and serve
the needs of those who have already become homeless. These organizations provide many
services to their clientele, including but not limited to counseling, case management, life skills
training, financial literacy classes, and victim advocacy, all of which help residents to develop the
skills and knowledge to transition into permanent housing or independent living and to maintain
steady employment. The goal of providing supportive services is self-sufficiency.
While case management services do exist within programs, some stakeholders noted that
tenancy supports are underfunded and are not available on the scale needed to serve people in
PSH and RRH. Robust tenancy supports would improve housing-related outcomes across the
system. Discussions are also ongoing regarding hiring FTE staff including case managers, licensed
mental health case managers, peer specialist and licensed substance abuse case managers to
coordinate services or provide onsite services.
List and describe services and facilities that meet the needs of homeless persons, particularly
chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their
families, and unaccompanied youth. If the services and facilities are listed on screen SP-40
Institutional Delivery Structure or screen MA-35 Special Needs Facilities and Services, describe
how these facilities and services specifically address the needs of these populations.
Collier County has a broad network of homeless providers offering emergency shelter,
transitional housing, employment services, legal services, food, veteran’s services, medical
services, financial assistance, eviction prevention services, and assistance with alcohol and drug
dependency. The following agencies listed provide services specifically for homeless people:
The Shelter for Abused Women and Children in Naples is the only domestic violence center in
Naples. It includes emergency shelter (where stays average 29 days) and a transitional housing
program (where residents can live for up to 2 years). Other services include a confidential hotline,
safety planning, counseling and support groups in English and Spanish, court advocacy and
assistance with daily needs such as food, clothing, toiletries, and household items.
St. Matthew’s House operates several facilities in Collier County, including emergency and
transitional housing in Naples, an emergency shelter in Immokalee (Immokalee Friendship
House), and transitional supportive apartments for persons with substance abuse or mental
health needs. Other services include a food pantry, thrift store, counseling and case
management, and access to referrals for medical, mental health, and substance abuse needs
through partnerships with other organizations in Collier County.
The Salvation Army and St. Vincent De Paul provides financial assistance for food, shelter, and
other aid to Collier County residents who meet certain income criteria.
Youth Haven is a 24-hour residential shelter for children removed from their homes due to abuse,
neglect, or abandonment. In addition to a 23-bed emergency shelter, Youth Haven offers a child

and family counseling center, in-home parenting classes, case management, and a teen drop-in
center with showers, laundry facilities, and meals. Typical length of stays range from 45 to 60
days until children are placed in foster care or with a relative.
Providence House provides a faith-based, transitional housing and self-sufficiency program for
motivated women with young children who are homeless or at risk of being homeless. These
women lack the long-term support necessary to acquire the assets foundational to re-
establishing their families. The two-year accountability program not only encourages the
development of self-efficacy, but it also provides women and their children with resources that
they need to become independent. Providence House also offers case management, life skills
training, and counseling referrals.
Wounded Warriors assists with the needs of Veterans and their families, with the focus on
education, housing, and mental health. The Hunger and Homeless Coalition of Collier
County estimates that there are 80-90 homeless Veterans in Collier County. Wounded Warriors
of Collier County is dedicated to ending Veteran homelessness in Collier County by employing
various housing models.
MA-35 Special Needs Facilities and Services – 91.210(d)
Introduction
This section describes the housing and social service needs of Collier County’s special populations
including:
• Elderly,
• frail elderly,
• domestic violence victims,
• residents with diagnosis of HIV/AIDS,
• residents with substance abuse, mental health, or disability diagnosis.
The special needs population includes individuals having mobility impairments, disabilities, or
that require supportive services.
Typically, this population has a severe or persistent mental illness, development, and physical
disabilities. Several organizations provide facilities and services for special needs populations in
Collier County.
Including the elderly, frail elderly, persons with disabilities (mental, physical, developmental),
persons with alcohol or other drug addictions, persons with HIV/AIDS and their families, public
housing residents and any other categories the jurisdiction may specify, and describe their
supportive housing needs
The supportive housing needs of Collier County’s special needs sub-populations (the elderly, frail
elderly, persons with disabilities, persons with HIV/AIDS and their families, persons with alcohol

or drug addiction, victims of domestic violence, and persons with a criminal record and their
families) mirrors the housing needs of the general population. Their needs include affordable and
accessible housing opportunities, job centers, access to transportation, and most importantly to
these subpopulations is social and supportive services to assist them in accessing programs
available to them. Services for these populations include counseling, case management, ADL
support, and education regarding fair housing rights and actions that can be taken in the event
those rights are violated.
Elderly and Frail Elderly - Much of the elderly population in Collier County need a range of
community-based services, i.e., social, physical, mental health, case management, chronic
disease management, supportive housing, and other services that assist people to remain living
in the community. Community-based long term care services include in-home supportive
services; home health care; adult day services; paratransit services; home-delivered meals;
supportive services in a hotel; care in residential care facilities, including board and care and
assisted living; and other health and social services. Long term care and supportive services can
be provided in home and community-based settings, as well as in institutional settings,
depending on need and choice. Collier County also has a comprehensive meals program that
provides congregate, and home delivered meals. The case management services for seniors
program also allows seniors to participate in the EHEAP for the elderly to help with electric
services.
Persons with Disabilities - Persons with disabilities often require accessible features and ground
floor housing units and support animals. Available housing for this subpopulation is limited within
Collier County, thus limiting housing choice. Units are available for this population; however,
there is greater demand for units for people with chronic mental illness for units for people with
physical or developmental disabilities. Funding from the State Housing Incentive Partnership
(SHIP) programs allows Community Assisted & Supported Living (CASL) and ROOF Collier County
to create supported living homes for adults with disabilities.
Persons with Drug Addiction and Criminal Records may be disqualified from housing
opportunities public housing or Section 8 rental assistance, and accordingly, assistance with
housing for low-income members of this subpopulation must be provided by other
nongovernmental organizations.
Survivors of Domestic Violence need safe housing, removal of barriers to relocation, and
protection from perpetrators. Housing providers need to be aware of and adhere to protocols
outlined in the Violence Against Women’s Act.
Persons with HIV/AIDS and their families supportive housing needs include housing developed
with HOPWA funding and other dedicated resources. Persons living with HIV/AIDS often have
medical concerns that can severely impact their ability to earn wages sufficient to maintain
adequate housing. HOPWA funding is not received directly in Collier County.
Public Housing Residents need supportive social services to aid families in becoming self-
sufficient. These services include financial counseling, housing counseling, credit counseling,
down-payment assistance programs, job training and placement, and access to transportation.

Describe programs for ensuring that persons returning from mental and physical health
institutions receive appropriate supportive housing
Public systems or institutions (i.e., jails, prisons, hospitals, child welfare, mental health facilities,
etc.) often release individuals directly into homelessness. Supportive housing has been identified
as one of the greatest needs for special needs subpopulations after being discharged from mental
and physical health institutions. In Collier County, housing referrals are often made to the David
Lawrence Center a nonprofit that owns and operates treatment programs and supportive
housing for people with mental health and substance abuse disorders. Community members
reported a need for community-living, group home type housing for those transitioning from
inpatient care to more independent living situations. One such agency providing that service is
Community Assisted & Supported Living (CASL).
Specify the activities that the jurisdiction plans to undertake during the next year to address
the housing and supportive services needs identified in accordance with 91.215(e) with respect
to persons who are not homeless but have other special needs. Link to one-year goals.
91.315(e)
Collier County will prioritize increasing the supply of affordable housing that includes supportive
services for special needs subpopulations which include families with children, seniors, ex-
offenders, people with HIV/AIDS, victims of domestic violence, people with drug and alcohol
addictions, people who are evicted or foreclosed, people with physical and mental disabilities,
veterans, youth and young adults, and youth aging out of foster care. The county will give
preference to projects that are rich in amenities and opportunity to include proximity to grocery
stores, public transportation, and job centers. Additionally, Collier County will continue to
support programs that provide rental subsidies to low-income housing households to make
existing units affordable; providing down payment assistance to eligible low and moderate-
income homebuyers; and supporting community efforts to fund the affordable housing trust
fund. However, there is not a consistent revenue stream to support funding the trust fund. Collier
County also will focus on increasing the supply of accessible units for persons with disabilities. To
address special housing and supportive needs, Collier County has identified the following one-
year goals and plans to fund Tenant-Based Rental Assistance, supporting new construction of
rental and homeowner housing, and providing assistance to homebuyers. HOME funds will be
directed to projects that address the needs of persons who have an identified special need.
HOME and CDBG funds have been utilized to support a range of developments to support special
needs populations.

and job centers. Since many services available to special needs populations are offered through
nonprofit agencies within the community, there is a need for these agencies to strengthen
collaboration among service providers across the region to ensure appropriate delivery of
services. To address special housing and supportive needs, Collier County has identified the
following one-year goals and plans to fund Tenant-Based Rental Assistance, supporting new
construction of rental and homeowner housing, and providing assistance to homebuyers. As it
relates to housing, Collier County has allocated HOME funds for future development of affordable
housing. Projects will be solicited through an application process and are strongly encouraged to
include a set-aside for special needs populations. Collier County will continue our SHIP home
repair programs that are frequently used by elderly persons, persons with disabilities, veterans,
and families with children. As it relates to supportive services, the County will continue to provide
CDBG funds for human services related to food assistance, social services, and assistance for
victims of domestic violence and children at risk of child abuse.
MA-40 Barriers to Affordable Housing – 91.210(e)
Negative Effects of Public Policies on Affordable Housing and Residential Investment
The Collier County Land Development Code, as amended through November 20, 2020, and the
Naples Land Development Code, as amended through December 16, 2020, were each reviewed
and evaluated against a list of common fair housing issues. The zoning regulations are permissive
and allow for flexibility as to the most common fair housing issues. Neither jurisdiction received
a high-risk score on any of the fair housing issues evaluated. However, the County and Naples
received medium risk scores on certain issues where the zoning regulations still have the
potential to negatively impact fair and affordable housing, and where improvements to the rules
and policies could be made to protect the fair housing rights of the County’s residents more fully.
On paper, the residential zoning criteria for the jurisdictions surveyed are not inherently
prohibitive, and yet there is general consensus among residents, planning officials, housing
advocates, and other stakeholders that Collier County and Naples suffer from an affordability gap
for both affordable and workforce housing. This problem will only grow as rent and home prices
are expected to continue to trend upward. Based on 2015 projections provided by the University
of Florida’s Shimberg Center for Housing Studies, the County’s Affordable Housing Advisory
Committee estimates that 43% of Collier households pay more than 30% of their income (the
limit considered financially healthy) on housing related expenses, and 22% of households spend
more than half of their income on housing.
There are some development costs that local governments simply cannot control, such as
materials and labor costs. However, there are other costs which government regulations directly
impact: for example, raw land costs (via minimum lot size requirements), permitting costs, and
impact fees. By reducing these costs, the hope is that there would be a trickle-down effect which
would in turn make development of affordable housing more feasible. In the context of the area’s
already costly rental and housing market, development standards may be a barrier to obtaining
workforce and affordable housing for low to moderate income families and should be evaluated
and tailored to the area’s estimation of affordability, that is the extent to which enough housing

Introduction
In determining priorities for the allocation of federal funds, the Collier County has recognized the
need to foster a competitive local economy that expands economic opportunities for present and
future residents. A unique economic development trend in Collier County is the high number of
seasonal residents who own property in the area. This phenomenon can cause data to trend in
ways that do not truly reflect the economy year-round. This section describes the local workforce,
the nature of current employment, and activities that coordinate economic development activities
across local and regional agencies.

Based on the Business Activity table above, what are the major employment sectors within
your jurisdiction?
Collier County’s largest employment sectors are:
• Sales and Office (34,130)
• Management, Business, and Finance (27,350)
• Service (18,358)
Describe the workforce and infrastructure needs of the business community:
Collier County’s workforce needs is heavily dependent on the hospitality industry with more than
20% of the County’s workforce employed in that industry. Education and healthcare represent the
second largest sector of jobs in Collier County. The local economy will depend on a strong labor
pool skilled in these industries. The County should continue job training and employment services
and seek to increase community college attendance among residents in poorer areas including
Immokalee, Bayshore residents, and residents residing in the RCAP/ECAP region.
Describe any major changes that may have an economic impact, such as planned local or regional
public or private sector investments or initiatives that have affected or may affect job and
business growth opportunities during the planning period. Describe any needs for workforce
development, business support or infrastructure these changes may create.
The County’s travel and tourism industry was hard hit with the effects of the Coronavirus Pandemic.
Prior to the pandemic the County had a strong business climate with many successful CEOs, low
property tax rates, wealthier citizens with high median incomes, and the state of Florida has high
ranking for a strong business environment. Residents will need skills in business development and
management and job training and skills in various service industries including health care,
education. While the arts, entertainment, tourism, and food services industries were the hardest
hit during the pandemic, additional job training in new fields will become apparent as the County
continues to recover from mandatory closures.
How do the skills and education of the current workforce correspond to employment
opportunities in the jurisdiction?
A skillful and well-educated workforce is essential to attracting and retaining employers and
growing the County’s economy. Residents with a bachelor’s degree or higher were less likely to be
unemployed or not in the labor force than residents with less educational attainment. It is also
important to note that while educational attainment shows that most county residents have
educational attainment above a high school diploma, but most jobs are in sectors that do not
require degrees. It will be important for the county to strengthen its ability to attract companies
to open, relocate, or expand in Collier County.
Describe any current workforce training initiatives, including those supported by Workforce
Investment Boards, community colleges and other organizations. Describe how these efforts will
support the jurisdiction's Consolidated Plan.

What are the characteristics of the market in these areas/neighborhoods?
Collier County targets resources in low-moderate income census block groups to meet regulatory
requirements for CDBG grant funds and to target areas with the highest level of needs. These areas
are considered “target areas” for use of HUD grant funds for area improvements, such as public
infrastructure or facility improvements. HUD funds may also be spent outside of these targeted
areas, as long as they provide services, improvements, affordable housing, or other benefits for
low- and moderate-income households or special needs populations.

necessities, medical and mental health services, services for people with disabilities, elderly and
assistance for children, youth, and families.
Are there other strategic opportunities in any of these areas?
The Strategic Plan provided below identifies priority needs and geographic focus areas for
community development and housing efforts in Collier County over the next five years. These
priorities are based on findings from the need’s assessment and market analysis, along with public
input received through a variety of engagement methods. The County will continue to concentrate
CDBG, ESG, and HOME spending on public safety activities, housing initiatives, and public service
activities. Projects and programs funded using CDBG, ESG, and HOME funds will meet program
eligibility requirements, generate long term improvements for low- and moderate-income
residents and communities, and help address federal, state, and local priorities, such as expanding
fair housing choice and sustainability.
This Strategic Plan also identifies market conditions which may influence the use of HUD grant
funds, the resources expected to be available to meet community needs, and the structure in place
for delivering services. Strategies for addressing public housing, homelessness, lead-based paint
hazards, and poverty are summarized. Finally, the Plan outlines barriers to housing affordability in
Collier County and will provide a plan to monitor performance and compliance for the CDBG, ESG,
and HOME programs.
The Strategic Plan will guide the use of CDBG and HOME in Collier County over the next five years
and is guided by HUD’s three overarching goals that are applied according to the County’s needs.
These goals are:
• To provide decent housing by preserving the affordable housing stock, increasing the
availability of affordable housing, reducing discriminatory barriers, increasing the supply of
supportive housing for those with special needs, and transitioning homeless persons and
families into housing.
• To provide a suitable living environment through safer, more livable neighborhoods,
greater integration of low- and moderate-income residents throughout the County,
increased housing opportunities, and reinvestment in deteriorating neighborhoods.
• To expand economic opportunities through more jobs paying self-sufficient wages,
homeownership opportunities, development activities that promote long-term community
viability, and the empowerment of low- and moderate-income persons to achieve self-
sufficiency.

MA-60 Broadband Needs of Housing occupied by Low- and Moderate-Income
Households - 91.210(a)(4), 91.310(a)(2)
Describe the need for broadband wiring and connections for households, including low- and
moderate-income households and neighborhoods.
For many Americans, access to computers and high-speed Internet connections in an integral part
of their everyday lives. As most of information, services, and resources have transitioned to online
access, digital inequality has a direct impact on low-income household’s social inequality.
According to HUD’s Office of Policy Development, in the Digital Inequality and Low-Income
Households Report, the disparate access to broadband can correlate with the inequality of income,
education, race, and ethnicity.
As part of the 2008 Broadband Data Improvement Act, the U.S. Census Bureau began asking about
computer and Internet use in the 2018 American Community Survey (ACS). Federal agencies use
these statistics to measure and monitor the nationwide development of broadband networks and
to allocate resources intended to increase access to broadband technologies, particularly among
groups with traditionally low levels of access. No longer a luxury, high speed internet access is
relied upon for residents to fully engage in an expanding array of employment, education, training,
financial and healthcare services. Internet access is relatively high but not universal for all
households in Immokalee.

Describe the need for increased competition by having more than one broadband Internet
service provider serve the jurisdiction.
Throughout the United States, there is a significant digital divide; a gap between those who have
ready access to the internet and computers and those who do not. The divide is perpetuated by
limitations that are geographical as well as financial, where persons cannot afford to pay a monthly
service fee for Broadband service (an internet connection fast enough to stream a video).
Nationwide, less than half of households living on or under $20,000 are connected. This lack of
internet access in communities supports a deficit in opportunity, education, and other prospects.1
The figure below shows the number of fixed broadband providers.
While the figure shows
the number of providers
available, it does not
reflect the household level usage of broadband. From a fair housing
perspective, ensuring that residential broadband is available to
housing projects both within and in the outskirts of the county will support community viability
and improve the quality of life for residents.

MA-65 Hazard Mitigation - 91.210(a)(5), 91.310(a)(3)
Describe the jurisdiction’s increased natural hazard risks associated with climate change.
According to the County’s 2020 Multi-Jurisdictional Local Mitigation Strategy, Collier County is
threatened by several different types of natural, technological, and manmade hazards. These
hazards endanger the health and safety of the people of the county, jeopardize its economic
vitality, and imperil the quality of the natural environment. All lands bordering the Gulf Coast are
susceptible to tidal effects and flooding. Due to the relative flatness of Collier County’s topography,
historical water flow has always been shallow overland sheet flow during the wet season.
Hurricanes and tropical storms can occur anywhere within the Collier County planning area. While
coastal areas are most vulnerable to hurricanes, their wind and rain impacts can be felt hundreds
of miles inland. All of Collier County is vulnerable to hurricane and tropical storm surge, but to
varying degrees, with areas closer to the coast and water bodies that drain into the coast facing
greater risk.
Describe the vulnerability to these risks of housing occupied by low- and moderate-income
households based on an analysis of data, findings, and methods.
Over 95% of Collier County falls within the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). By definition of the
100-year flood event, SFHAs are defined as those areas that will be inundated by the flood event
having a 1-percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year. Low-income properties
located in these areas have a 26% chance of flooding over the life of a 30-year mortgage. According
to NCEI, 35 recorded flood events affected the Collier County area from 2000 to 2019 causing an
estimated $6,534,500 in property damage, with no fatalities, injuries, or crop damage. Debris also
poses a risk both during and after a flood to all residents including low-income households. During
a flood, debris carried by floodwaters can cause physical injury from impact. The second type of
health problem arises after most of the water has gone. Stagnant pools can become breeding
grounds for mosquitoes, and wet areas of a building that have not been properly cleaned breed

mold and mildew. A building that is not thoroughly cleaned becomes a health hazard, especially
for small children and the elderly. Much of the housing that is affordable to lower income
households is naturally occurring – meaning older and less desirable housing. Many of these older
units, built to less stringent standards, may be at increased risk to natural hazards.
The County has identified housing-related vulnerabilities of low- and moderate-income residents:
• Most residents lack the savings and/or insurance required to weather significant economic
challenges.
• Economic shocks due to natural hazards, unexpected health expenses, or national
economic conditions can very quickly translate into housing instability and foreclosure.
• There is currently very little, if any, excess housing stock in the Collier County area.
Lower income households are also more likely to lack rental insurance to recover from a disaster
and will have greater difficulty affording the cost of installing and operating cooling systems if
temperatures continue to rise.
Strategic Plan
SP-05 Overview
Strategic Plan Overview
The Strategic Plan provided below identifies priority needs and geographic focus areas for
community development and housing efforts in the Collier County for the next five years. This Plan
will identify the County’s anti-poverty initiatives, market conditions, available resources, and the
plan to monitor performance and compliance for each HUD program for which it receives funds.
The priorities identified are based on the information received from needs assessment surveys,
market analysis, stakeholder meetings, and public comments. Collier County is anticipating over
$18 million in federal funds over this 5-year Consolidated Plan period. Collier County Community
& Human Service Division will administer these grant funds. The Community and Human Services
Division will partner with county departments, nonprofit partners, developers, community housing
development organizations, and the local housing authority to expend these funds on eligible
activities that address the strategic priorities listed in this Plan.
CDBG, HOME, and ESG allocations will be leveraged to generate long term improvements for low
and moderate-income residents and communities while helping to address various federal, state,
and local priorities, such as affordable housing, fair housing choice, economic development,
homelessness, and lead-based paint hazards.
The county will concentrate CDBG, HOME, and ESG spending on community facilities,
infrastructure projects, and public service activities. HOME funds will be utilized on the
development or rehabilitation of single and multi-family housing units, tenant-based rental
assistance activities, and homebuyer activities. Additionally, the County will focus on rapid re-

Collier County is an urban area that relies on widely accepted data such as American Community
Survey (ACS), HUD low and moderate-income summary data, and Federal Financial Institutions
Examinations Council (FFIEC) data to determine areas throughout the community with
concentrations of low and moderate-income communities. Program resources are allocated
county-wide based on low-mod areas, which often coincide with areas of minority concentration.
Over the next five years, the County intends to utilize CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds in areas where

Market Characteristics that will influence
the use of funds available for housing type
Tenant Based
Rental Assistance
(TBRA)
TBRA is an important tool for families to maintain affordable housing.
Severe cost burden is the greatest predictor of homelessness risk, with
populations paying more than 50% of their income towards housing costs
or having incomes at or below 50% AMI at greatest risk of becoming
homeless
TBRA for Non-
Homeless Special
Needs
Lack of units with supportive services influences this program. Based
upon consultations with homeless housing and social service agencies, a
need for supportive housing has been identified as a priority. The special
needs households include those with disabilities, persons with mental
illness, elderly, frail elderly, veterans, as well as dysfunctional households
facing a variety of issues. Market characteristics impacting this priority
relate to the shortage of privately-owned housing units which are
available to provide supportive housing programs. This problem is
intensified by the lack of public funds.
New Unit
Production
Rents will not financially support the cost of new unit production. A
shortage of affordable, decent housing units is an identified need. The
market characteristics influencing this priority include the age and
condition of the existing housing stock without the rent levels to support
rehabilitation. New construction faces the same market conditions. The
HOME program can provide some resources to address this issue.
Rehabilitation Rents will not financially support the cost of major rehabilitation projects
similar to the new unit production priority discussed above, the
achievable rents and income levels in the County often result in
rehabilitation in the private marketplace to be financially infeasible. This
issue is intensified by the age and condition of the housing stock.
Acquisition,
including
preservation
Lack of funding available to finance projects. There are opportunities to
improve the conditions and affordability of housing by the acquisition of
vacant, deteriorating structures. These structures are for the most part
multi-unit in nature or previously nonresidential buildings appropriate for
conversion. The cost and complexity of acquisition and rehabilitation of
these structures usually requires implementations by an experienced
housing development entity and financial assistance. When structures are
of historic or architectural value, the cost can be increased. Similar to the
new unit production, the HOME program can provide the resources for
this type of development.

SP-35 Anticipated Resources - 91.215(a)(4), 91.220(c)(1,2)
Introduction
Collier County Entitlement grant resources totaling $4,567,555.47 are anticipated for the 2021
program year to meet underserved needs, foster decent affordable housing, develop institutional
structure, and enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service
agencies. Along with the County’s 2021 annual CDBG, HOME, and ESG allocations, this figure
includes $134,787.17 in prior year CDBG funds and $666,127.30 in prior year HOME funds that
will be reprogrammed for use this year. Additionally, this figure includes an estimated $20,000 in
program income, which the County anticipates receiving from its CDBG program for use in 2021.
Anticipated Resources
• Bond Financing: For multi-family affordable housing and single-family projects. A portion
of the bonds issued by a state, local government, or housing development agency may be
considered as HOME match.
• Collier County Housing Trust Fund: Administered by the County eligible activities include
predevelopment, acquisition, construction, and rehabilitation costs associated with low-
income housing development. The full amount of Collier Housing Trust Fund grants/loans
invested into the project is eligible as HOME match.
• Florida Affordable Housing Tax Credit Program: Administered by the State of Florida,
this program provides below-market interest rates for low-income housing projects. The
maximum interest rate reduction is approximately 4% below market, for a maximum
term of 20 years. HOME match is calculated by applying the present discounted cash
value to the total yield foregone by the lender.
• Affordable Housing Surtax: Passed by the voters in 2018 Property Tax Exemptions: Not
for profit developers may receive an exemption from property taxes have been awarded
on a project-by-project basis to low-income housing developments. Generally based on
the benefits provided to the community and the duration of the low-income housing
commitment.
• Volunteer Labor: Area non-profit housing developers have been successful in utilizing
volunteer labor in their developments. Architects, attorneys, and other professionals
have also contributed their services to non-profit housing developments in Collier.
Volunteer labor is eligible as HOME match.
• Private Contributions: Cash and materials have been contributed to the past by private
businesses, lenders, corporations, and foundations to assist in the development of low-
income housing in the County. It is expected that future contributions from private
sources will continue to provide needed assistance. Private contributions are eligible as
HOME match.
• Other Federal Resources Used at the Local Level: Federal Low-income Housing Tax
Credits are allocated by the State of Florida and are used to subsidize rental housing
developments that are affordable to persons with incomes below 60% AMI. Area projects
have typically applied for the 9% tax credits in order to serve a lower-income population.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
The 9% tax credits are more desirable but statewide demand greatly exceeds available
funding.
• Publicly owned land: The County has a history of utilizing public property for affordable
housing. Currently one property is under development for low-income affordable housing
in the County. The County does own land itself that could be put toward affordable
housing, but is looking at what it has, as well as land owned by other public agencies, to
determine whether certain properties are well suited for affordable housing.
• State Housing Initiatives Partnership program (SHIP): Provides funds to local
governments as an incentive to create partnerships that produce and preserve affordable
homeownership and multifamily housing. The program was designed to serve very low,
low- and moderate-income families.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state, and local
funds), including a description of how matching requirements will be satisfied.
Collier County leverages a combination of public and private funding to conduct activities
identified in this plan. During this Consolidated Plan period, the County will research
opportunities to apply for additional funding streams that are consistent with the goals of the
Consolidated Plan. Infrastructure improvements projects capitalize on the ongoing revitalization
efforts in the Bayshore Gateway Triangle and the Immokalee CRA. These areas were designated
by the Collier County Board of Commissioners to boost the local economy and uplift surrounding
communities. Additionally, the County works with several nonprofit organizations by granting
funding for facility improvements and services. These grant funds are leveraged by private
donations and other resources to provide services to clients or residents of Collier County.
The HOME program requires a 25% match of the total amount of funds drawn down during the
federal fiscal year. Collier County HOME subrecipients are required to submit a match log that
identifies the sources of match funds for each fiscal year. Match funds can be derived from
various sources to include: the value of sponsorships from local businesses; waived County fees;
donated land or improvements; volunteer hours; donated materials; or by other eligible methods
as provided in the HOME regulations. When necessary, the County also uses its SHIP funding to
match HOME funds. Historically, match amounts for HOME subrecipients have far exceeded the
25% annual contribution requirements stipulated by HOME program regulations.
The ESG program requires a 100% match for the total amount of funds drawn down during the
federal fiscal year. Collier County requires all ESG subrecipients to provide a dollar-for-dollar
match by calculating the value of volunteer hours, private donations, and salary not covered by
ESG, other grant funding, in-kind donations, or by other eligible methods as provided in the ESG
regulations. The County also provides match support for the ESG program from general funds.
If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that
may be used to address the needs identified in the plan
County owned land will be used in in the development of 82 housing units at the Bembridge
property in partnership with McDowell Housing partners. There is no HUD funding in this
development.

Table 49 - Institutional Delivery Structure
Assess of Strengths and Gaps in the Institutional Delivery System
Collier County has a comprehensive network of service providers that is made up of nonprofits,
private sector developers, community-based development organizations, local housing
authorities, and coalitions. Additionally, Collier County has enough staff capacity to dedicate one
staff member per grant program that is administers. This allows both the staff and the service
providers to become subject matter experts in their grant programs. This expertise maximizes
both the efficiency and effectiveness of the programs administration and minimizes mistakes.
One of the greatest gaps in the Institutional Delivery System is the financial capacity of the
nonprofit partners. The funding Collier County provides is intended to be supplemental to the
operation of programs. For many of the nonprofits the County’s funding represents the majority
of the money expended for a program and limits the reach of the program beyond the amount
allocated by HUD. An additional gap has been identified since the release of the revised HOME
Final Rule. The final rule eliminated the ability of local housing authorities to serve as Community
Housing Development Organizations (CHDOs). While a new CHDO has been identified to take
the place of this housing authority some local institutional knowledge has been lost in the
transition.

One of the greatest gaps in the Institutional Delivery System is the financial capacity of the
nonprofit partners. The funding Collier County provides is intended to be supplemental to the
operation of programs. For many of the nonprofits the County’s funding represents most of the
money expended for a program and limits the reach of the program beyond the amount allocated

The final rule eliminated the ability of local housing authorities to serve as Community Housing

Describe the strengths and gaps of the service delivery system for special needs population and
persons experiencing homelessness, including, but not limited to, the services listed above
The County has been successful at partnering with several agencies serving persons with special
needs via entitlement funding, and also has provided services and programs to persons with
special needs via the SHIP program, which aids in the production and preservation of affordable
homeownership and multifamily housing for very low, low, and moderate-income households.
Although the County has been successful at working with many of the non-profit organizations
in the community, gaps in service delivery include supportive services for homeless individuals,
persons with special needs, and supportive housing and transitional housing for residents with
substance and alcohol abuse issues.
Provide a summary of the strategy for overcoming gaps in the institutional structure and
service delivery system for carrying out a strategy to address priority needs.
The most significant gap in the service delivery system is identifying sufficient funding to meet
the needs identified. Collier County typically receives requests for four to five times the funding
available on an annual basis. Consequently, funding is allocated to as many high priorities needs,
and projects as is practicable. Given the limited HUD funding available to completely overcome
the gaps in the institutional structure, the County collaborates with various partners to ensure
that priority needs are addressed. For example, the County operates as the lead agency for the
Area Agency on Aging, which provides case management and other services for seniors and
oversees a daily nutritional program for seniors in the community. Also, the County seeks and
has been successful in receiving many other awards to address priority needs. These grants
include a SHIP award to assist with homeowner and rental opportunities and a state of Florida
Criminal Justice, Mental Health and Substance Abuse grant through which the County partners
with the Sheriff’s office and a local mental health facility to improve outcomes for persons in the
criminal justice system who have mental health issues. The development of social service
collaborations across the region to coordinate the work of social service organizations,
disseminate news and information, and spearhead community-wide solutions to local needs is
necessary to assist the community in overcoming gaps in services for the homeless and residents
with substance abuse issues.

Need to Increase the Number of Accessible Units (if Required by a Section 504 Voluntary
Compliance Agreement)
The Collier County Housing Authority (CCHA) is an independent authority established under state
law, is separate from the general control of the County, and operates no HUD-funded public
housing units. The Collier County Housing Authority is not required by a Section 504 Voluntary
Compliance Agreement to increase the number of accessible units.
Activities to Increase Resident Involvements
The Collier County Housing Authority undertakes a variety of initiatives to increase resident
involvement which include established programs that represent all residents living in Housing
Authority developments. The Collier County Housing Authority coordinates programs, activities,
and services offered to residents, including:
Family Self Sufficiency Program - designed to assist residents with achieving self-
sufficiency. This effort is accomplished through goal setting, intervention, advocacy, and
community collaboration. When entering the program, the residents meet with a Family
Self Sufficiency (FSS) Program Coordinator to discuss their needs and to set goals.
Residents can receive assistance with seeking employment, job training, and educational
opportunities.

Barriers to Affordable Housing
The inventory of affordable housing in Collier County is not sufficient to meet the demand for
affordable units. One of the primary challenges to creating and preserving affordable housing in
Collier County is that household income is failing to keep up with rising housing costs. The local
economy is focused on retail, hospitality, services, and agriculture; however, high housing costs
have priced out much of the workforce needed for the county to function.
Strategy to Remove or Ameliorate the Barriers to Affordable Housing

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
Collier County faces a burgeoning issue in trying to identify, quantify and qualify new and existing
affordable housing units. With a wider range of housing options, Collier County would be better
equipped to tackle the affordable housing problem. The effort requires comprehensive strategies
and a variety of tools that can be used alone or in combination to reduce costs and increase
availability.
During this consolidated plan period, Collier County will continue to Review and Revise the Land
Development Code which, if done well will make it easier to implement necessary changes to
encourage housing affordability. The current Land Development Code (LDC) does not consistently
support and encourage growth in already existing urbanized areas of the county (those areas
generally west of Collier Parkway). Many of the LDC’s ordinances are geared toward large-scale,
planned-unit developments (PUDs) on greenfield sites. Conversely, smaller-scale redevelopment
and infill sites in already developed areas of the county are challenging to consolidate, may need
to address adjacent uses and neighborhood concerns, and often require additional density to
make them financially feasible. Collier County can also consider reducing parking standards to
achieve affordability, permitting guest houses as accessory dwelling rental unit, encouraging
smart-site infrastructure, and identify strategic opportunity sites.
SP-60 Homelessness Strategy – 91.215(d)
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their
individual needs
Collier County, through its nonprofit partners, provides services for the homeless by allocating
ESG funding. The network of services providers refers clients to one another for assistance on an
ad hoc basis. They work to build trusting relationships with homeless persons living on the streets
and in shelters as well as at-risk populations to remain stably housed. The subrecipients perform
assessments for homeless persons and those at risk of homelessness to link them to shelter and
other supportive services that are appropriate to meet their needs. All subrecipients funded
through the County’s ESG will participate in coordinated entry.
Additionally, the County also continues to provide funding for salaries and operating costs to
shelters in the community including the Shelter for Abused Women and Children. The County
also supports facility improvements at local emergency shelter locations. Collier County also
participates in the Point in Time Count to identify the number of homeless persons in the County
and to appropriately allocate funding to address homelessness and human trafficking victims.
Addressing the emergency and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
Collier County currently awards its ESG entitlement funds to subrecipients for the operation of
emergency shelters, provision of hotel/motel vouchers, financial assistance through rapid re-
housing to become stably housed and homeless prevention programs to serve individuals and
families. Some emergency shelters and homeless prevention programs are designed to focus
their services to the needs of specific populations such as families, victims of domestic violence,
persons being evicted, and persons with severe mental health disorders or substance abuse
histories.

Consolidated Plan COLLIER COUNTY 147
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
In response to the HEARTH Act and 24 CFR part 576, Collier County, in collaboration with its
subrecipients are working together to prevent homelessness by helping families remain within
their communities and retain their current permanent housing or diverting people to permanent
housing solutions. The first step in this process was to streamline the intake of homeless families
seeking emergency shelter. The improved coordination will result in more families being diverted
away from homelessness and more families exiting homelessness and being rapidly re-housed in
permanent housing.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families
with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to
permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that
individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals
and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were
recently homeless from becoming homeless again.
The County will continue to administer the Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) and oversee
activities for homeless individuals and families. The County has identified rapid re-housing as a
priority during the next Consolidated Plan period. Obtaining permanent housing for homeless
individuals and families will shorten the length of time spent in emergency and transitional
shelters.
Collier County encourages collaboration with organizations to transition as many people as
possible into permanent housing as quickly as possible. The County also supports the
implementation of coordinated entry process to assess and direct the homeless and people with
mental illness to appropriate housing and services. Some families or individuals may require only
limited assistance for a short period of time, such as emergency food and shelter -- until a first
paycheck is received or a medical emergency has passed. Others will require more
comprehensive and long-term assistance, such as transitional housing with supportive services
and job training. Due to limited resources, it is important for agencies to eliminate duplication of
effort by local agencies, both in assessment procedures and in subsequent housing and
supportive services. The Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) can be improved
with common intake forms, shared data, effective assessment instruments and procedures, and
on-going coordination of assistance among community organizations.
Help low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-
income individuals and families who are likely to become homeless after being discharged from
a publicly funded institution or system of care, or who are receiving assistance from public and
private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth
needs
Diversion to housing and services outside of the traditional homeless services system is an
integral part of helping families to avoid becoming homeless. Through a coordinated system,
service providers will work with families to identify other housing options available for the
household rather than accessing shelter through the homeless system. For example, family or
friends that the client may be able to stay with while stabilizing their housing situation, which

may be more beneficial for the household and simultaneously reserves homeless shelter
resources for those with no other options.
SP-65 Lead based paint Hazards – 91.215(i)y
Actions to address LBP hazards and increase access to housing without LBP hazards
Collier County will continue to implement countermeasures to reduce lead-based paint hazards
by abating or removing lead-based paint hazards found in existing housing built prior to 1978.
Collier County educates the public on the hazards of lead-based paint and educates parents about
protecting their children. In response to lead-based paint hazards and the limited resources
available, the County will plan a steady, long-term response in accordance with Federal lead-
based paint standards, other applicable federal regulations, and local property standards.
The County will identify houses with lead-based paint through the various housing programs
undertaken by the County and will abate or remove lead hazards in high priority units.
Government assisted housing rehabilitation projects will include the completion of a lead-based
paint inspection according to HUD and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines.
Policies and procedures for abatement of lead hazards have been established in Collier County,
which include determining cost effectiveness for abatement and procedures for assessing,
contracting, and inspecting post-abatement work. The policies and procedures also include
preparing work write-ups and costs estimates for all income eligible persons in Collier County
with identified lead-based paint hazards.
How are the actions listed above related to the extent of lead poisoning and hazards?
Lead poisoning is the leading environmental hazard to children, creating devastating and
irreversible health problems. The leading cause of lead-based poisoning is exposure to dust from
deteriorating paint in homes constructed before 1978. This is due to the high lead content used
in paint during that period, and particularly in homes built before 1950. Pre-1978 housing
occupied by lower income households with children offers particularly high risks of lead exposure
due to the generally lower levels of home maintenance among lower income households. This is
an important factor since it is not the lead paint itself that causes the hazards, but rather the
deterioration of the paint that releases lead-contaminated dust and allows children to peel and
eat lead-contaminated flakes.
How are the actions listed above integrated into housing policies and procedures?
Collier County policies and procedures call for full compliance with the lead-based paint
regulations at 24 CFR Part 35. Contractors, subrecipients, and other community partners are
advised of the lead-based paint regulations and the County works with them to ensure
inspection, testing, and abatement of lead hazards wherever necessary. Additionally, the County
distributes information and literature on lead hazards to households who may be at risk of
exposure.

SP-70 Anti-Poverty Strategy – 91.215(j)
Jurisdiction Goals, Programs and Policies for reducing the number of Poverty-Level Families
Collier County has a Business and Economic Division that provides help with business relocation
and expansion. This Division has partnered with several local economic development agencies,
including the Small Business Development Center, which helps with small business start-ups,
Career Source of Southwest Florida to help with job training and employment services, and
Naples Chamber of Commerce. The local community college provides additional classes and
training related to small business development and implementation and job training programs.
Life skills, employment, and job training activities are offered in areas with high concentrations
of low-income residents including Immokalee, and there are two targeted CRAs in the Bayshore-
Gateway Triangle Area and Immokalee.
How are the Jurisdiction poverty reducing goals, programs, and policies coordinated with this
affordable housing plan
Some of the jurisdiction’s poverty reduction programs and the affordable housing programs
detailed in this plan are managed by Collier County, allowing for strong coordination of program
offerings, performance goals, and policies.
SP-80 Monitoring – 91.230
Describe the standards and procedures that the jurisdiction will use to monitor activities
carried out in furtherance of the plan and will use to ensure long-term compliance with
requirements of the programs involved, including minority business outreach and the
comprehensive planning requirements
Subrecipients will receive information on federal and local regulations relating to their specific
activity, along with an explanation as to how they apply to the project. Specific performance
objectives will be outlined within each subrecipient agreement, giving measurable objectives for
the eligible activity to be carried out. Each project is monitored on an ongoing basis and all
preconstruction conferences are attended by division staff. Prior to any contracting, CHS staff
reviews program requirements with prospective subrecipients, including emphasis on conflict of
interest and special requirements for each subrecipient’s specific agreement. This process
ensures subrecipients are fully aware of program requirements. Documentation submitted with
reimbursement requests is reviewed for compliance with applicable regulations and measurable
objectives prior to issuing funds.
On-site monitoring of selected subrecipients is scheduled by the County and conducted by the
CHS Grant Monitoring Team using an enhanced monitoring checklist. The Monitoring Team is
typically composed of the Compliance Supervisor, the Project Grant Coordinator, the Monitoring
Operations Analyst, and a Senior Accountant. This team is charged with providing a progress
monitoring visit and evaluation and a second visit at final project closeout (the timing of which

are subject to change based on current divisional policies). The specific number of monitoring
visits each funded entity receives is based on a risk evaluation, but every project will have a
closeout monitoring. Projects still under construction for more than a year are also monitored
until the project is complete. Projects are reviewed to ensure all aspects of the activity are carried
out in accordance with applicable regulations. After a monitoring visit, CHS sends a follow-up
letter to the subrecipient stating the outcome of the monitoring. Where required by the
monitoring outcome, Corrective Action Plans are developed and the subrecipient’s compliance
with the Corrective Action Plan is reviewed until the plan is satisfied. After the Corrective Action
Plan is satisfied and all monitoring findings are cleared, CHS closes out the monitoring with a
letter to the subrecipient identifying future compliance requirements and reporting
responsibilities.
In addition to the above, any subrecipient determined to be in need of and/or requesting
additional training on how to meet grantee and federal requirements receives technical
assistance (TA) in the form deemed most appropriate to the circumstances.
The County has developed written policies and procedures that are in place for all federal grant
programs. CHS continues to monitor and assist subrecipients to become aware of and
knowledgeable about all grant requirements. Additionally, CHS provides TA to achieve
compliance with all federal requirements and holds a quarterly partnership meeting with each
subrecipient to ensure successful project completion.

Expected Resources
AP-15 Expected Resources – 91.220(c)(1,2)
Introduction
Collier County Entitlement grant resources totaling $4,567,555.47 are anticipated for the FY2021 to meet underserved needs, foster
decent affordable housing, develop institutional structure, and enhance coordination between public and private housing and social
service agencies. Along with the County’s 2021 annual CDBG, HOME, and ESG allocations, this figure includes $134,787.17 in prior year
CDBG funds and $666,127.30 in prior year HOME funds that will be reprogrammed for use this year. Additionally, this figure includes
an estimated $29,000 in CDBG program income and $31,571 in HOME program income.
In the prior program year, the County received CDBG-CV and ESG-CV funds to assist eligible individuals and families facing hardships
due to the COVID-19 pandemic. CDBG-CV funds were allocated towards economic development activities such as small business loans
to assist businesses that have been negatively affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. CDBG-CV funds were also allocated to the purchase
of medical equipment such as personal protective equipment and testing. ESG-CV funds were utilized for expanded rapid re-housing
and homeless prevention activities. The County continues to assess the effectiveness of these allocated funds and will work to ensure
that the funds are utilized to optimal efficiency.
Additional resources available to Collier County in this program year include State Housing Initiative Partnership (SHIP) funding of
approximately $2,500,000 which is used for a wide range of rehabilitation, rental housing, and homeownership assistance.

Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state, and local funds), including a description of how
matching requirements will be satisfied.
Projects selected for funding by Collier County leverage additional community resources, including public and private agency funds.
Although the CDBG program does not require a match from non-federal sources, monies dedicated to infrastructure improvements
capitalize on ongoing revitalization efforts by the Bayshore and Immokalee Community Redevelopment Agencies (CRAs). Facility
improvements for nonprofit organizations enhance their ability to provide services to their clients or residents. Public service funds
are granted to agencies with additional public and/or private funding streams that provide a variety of services in addition to those
supported by CDBG funds. For example, several nonprofits receive state funds through the Department of Children and Families to
support CDBG-funded programs. In recent years, subrecipients also had large private donors who made cash donations.
Both the HOME and ESG programs have matching funds requirements. The HOME program match will be provided from organizations
that receive HOME funding during FY2021 in in-kind contributions and other non-federal sources to fund the operations supporting
the HOME funded program. The County may also satisfy the HOME match through the State Housing Initiative Program (SHIP). The
ESG program requires the County provide a 1:1 match. The County plans to fund the Shelter for Abused Women and Children and the
subrecipient will provide match through payment of costs associated with shelter operations such as program staff salaries. NAMI’s
rapid re-housing and the HMIS activity will also provide required match. Additionally, the County pays the salaries of County staff to
contribute to match requirements form HUD.

If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that
may be used to address the needs identified in the plan
Florida Statues Section 125.379, Disposition of County property for affordable housing, requires
that counties create an inventory of real property with fee simple title appropriate for affordable
housing. Collier County maintains the inventory of County-owned surplus land through its Real
Property Division. Locally, the disposition of surplus land is governed by Resolution 2007-172 and
Resolution 2010-123, which direct the County to sell the land and use the proceeds to increase
financial resources set-aside for affordable housing.
The County identified two publicly owned parcels suitable for new housing construction and
released an RFP for their sale and development in fall 2018. One parcel, known as Bembridge,
released an Invitation to Negotiate for the development of affordable housing in spring 2019.
The Bembridge property developer will receive Florida Housing Finance Authority funding to
construct 82 new rental units in 2021. The project has completed all zoning activities required for
construction to begin. The project is expected to commence in late 2021.
In 2019, the County acquired 60+ acres in Golden Gate City. As part of this acquisition the County
has obligated 40ac to affordable housing. In 2020 the County released an RFP, and a nonprofit
developer was selected. This project includes a 10M private donation to support the project.
The County will contribute the land to project.
In addition, the County Board of Commissioners recently adopted Resolution 2018-39, which
encourages the co-location of housing and public facilities when the County acquires future
property.

Introduction
For FY 2021-2022, Collier County will fund a total of 12 projects under the CDBG, HOME, and ESG
programs, identified below with additional details provided in Section AP-38. Please note that
funding levels and goal outcome indicators are estimates for planning purposes. Payments to
subrecipients for individual projects and/or activities are not contingent on meeting annual
outcome indicators shown below. Subrecipient award amounts may not match those in the
applications submitted to the County, as not all projects were funded at requested levels.
Recommended activities are eventually finalized in a legal agreement approved by the Board of
County Commissioners and the subrecipients. The agreement is considered to contain the final
activity description including funding levels, scope elements, deliverables and beneficiaries and
supersedes any prior information such as the application or this action plan.
CDBG projects include public services, public facility, and public infrastructure improvements.
Under the HOME program, the County will fund, acquisition, and/or rehabilitation of affordable
housing and a tenant-based rental assistance program.
ESG activities include emergency shelter operations support and administration.
The administrative costs of the CDBG, HOME, and ESG projects are also included as projects and
represent 20%, 10%, and 7.5% of annual allocations, respectively.
In the event that any of the activities identified in the project list and descriptions do not perform
as anticipated and grant funds are returned, or in the event that additional funds become
available, the County reserves the right to reprogram those funds for use in a TBRA, Down
Payment and Closing Cost Assistance program for low- and moderate-income households.

Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved
needs.
The County has pursued a variety of strategies to impact the identified needs of the community,
the primary obstacle to meeting the underserved needs is the lack of sufficient financial
resources. Annually several project proposals may be unfunded or receive only partial funding
due to lack of available resources.
Allocation priorities for the FY 2021-2022 Action Plan are consistent with those outlined in the
Strategic Plan portion of the County’s 2021-2025 Consolidated Plan. The priorities were identified
through a review of market conditions as well as a needs assessment that analyzed affordable
housing, special need housing, homeless, and non-housing community development needs in
Collier County. Substantial participation by residents, local and regional organizations, and other
stakeholders also informed these priorities.
The Consolidated Plan and the Needs Assessment conducted as part of the Consolidated Planning
process identified affordable for-sale and rental housing as a top need in Collier County. Housing
affordability was the most common issue identified by interviewees and community meeting
participants throughout the county, including in Naples and Immokalee. Further, according to
Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) data, about 19% of all households in the
county spend more than 30% of their income on housing. For low- and moderate-income
households, about 75% of renters and 65% of owners spend over 30% of income on housing.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
The County made its funding decisions for this Action Plan based on need, geographic priorities,
and opportunities to work with subrecipients and other partners that contribute additional
resources to leverage federal funds. The main obstacle to addressing underserved needs is the
shortage of financial resources to address Collier County’s priorities.
In the event of natural disasters, pandemics, and other worldwide crisis events (natural or manmade), the
County may substantially amend the projects in this Plan to meet the immediate needs of the community.
It is the responsibility of the County to plan ahead and be disaster prepared. For example, in the event of
hurricanes the County may reprioritize from normal activities to focus on infrastructure and facilities
improvements, or increase public services, where allowable, in the case of a pandemic or other natural
disaster. Under the State SHIP program, the county has an existing Disaster Assistance Strategy that goes
into effect when a disaster declaration has been declared by the President or the Governor. Collier County
will also take advantage of federal waivers that may be issued from time to time in the event of declared
disasters. In April 2020, the County identified HUD CDBG, ESG and HOME waivers that it was electing to
use in addressing the Coronavirus pandemic. Collier County will continue to take advantage of all
appropriate CDBG, ESG and HOME waivers as they become available

AP-50 Geographic Distribution – 91.220(f)
Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low-income and
minority concentration) where assistance will be directed.
Collier County is an urban county that relies on widely accepted data such as American
Community Survey (ACS), HUD low and moderate-income summary data, and Federal Financial
Institutions Examinations Council (FFIEC) data to determine areas throughout the community
with concentrations of low and moderate-income communities. Program resources are allocated
County-wide based on low-mod areas which often coincide with areas of minority concentration.
Over the next year, the County intends to utilize CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds in unincorporated
parts of the County and the City of Naples. Marco Island, an incorporated city within the County,
opted out of participation in 2012. Over the next program year, the County anticipates spending
96% of its CDBG funds and in Immokalee HVAC improvements to rental housing and
infrastructure development and 4% in Naples undertaking , street light replacement, Countywide
project include rental acquisitions, shelter security enhancements, transportation services,
victim services, acquisition of affordable housing and veteran housing.
Geographic Distribution
Target Area Percentage of Funds
City of Naples 4%
Immokalee 18%
Collier County- Countywide 78%
Table 55 - Geographic Distribution
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically.
Collier County targets resources in low-moderate income census block groups to meet regulatory
requirements for CDBG grant funds and to target areas with the highest level of needs. Maps provided
show Collier County block groups where 51% or more of the population have incomes at or below 80% of
the area median income. These areas are considered “target areas” for use of HUD grant funds for area
improvements, such as public infrastructure or facility improvements. HUD funds may also be spent
outside of these targeted areas, as long as they provide services, improvements, affordable housing, or
other benefits for low- and moderate-income households or special needs populations. The following
map depict the low- and moderate-income block groups within Collier County. The low-income
block groups identified in the map below will generally be prioritized for allocation of
Consolidated Plan resources, however, individual low- and moderate-income persons residing
anywhere in Collier County may be eligible beneficiaries of CDBG funds.
The 2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act established the Opportunity Zone program. Opportunity zones are low-
income census tracts nominated by the Governor of the state to spur private investment for economic

development and job creation in the designated tracts. Collier County has five census tracts that are
certified by the State as Opportunity Zones (census tracts 104.11, 108.02, 112.05, 113.01, and 114). HUD
encouraged grantees to consider using their CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds for eligible activities in
Opportunity Zones in CPD-19-01: Guidance on Submitting Consolidated Plans and Annual Action Plans.
The County's Opportunity Zones overlap with census tracts within two of the CDBG target areas. For FY
2020-2021, the County anticipates funding two public facility projects in these census tract target areas.
As the Opportunity Zone program regulations are finalized, the County will explore how the CPD funds
can be used to leverage Opportunity Zone funding to these areas.

public housing developments, including low-income and farm labor housing at Farm Worker Village, farm
labor housing at Collier Village, a 192-bed dormitory called Horizon Village, and some scattered site
housing.
Farm Worker Village is a multi-family low-income and farm labor housing development in Immokalee
built under the USDA 514/516 Program. The development includes 176 total acres with 591 housing
units, ranging from single-family homes to duplexes and quadraplexes. Farm Worker Village has a main
office, convenience store, laundromat, community center, playground, and two daycare centers.
Horizon Village offers 192 beds for unaccompanied migrants and seasonal farmworkers in dormitory-
style efficiency units, each with space for 8 people, a common kitchen area with appliances, and two
bathrooms. A meeting room is available to provide social and educational programs.
The Housing Authority also administers approximately 440 Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers. Unlike
most public housing authorities, CCHA has no HUD-funded public housing units. Their primary funding is
from USDA.
Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing.
The CCHA has also applied for rehabilitation grant through the Collier County Community and
Human Services Division to rehab older units located at Farmworker Village. This project will
provide HVAC to 50 units. In 2019-2020, CCHA received a HOME grant to rehabilitate 52 units at
Farm Worker village. In addition, CCHA has been awarded funds for the acquisition of rental
property to support 2 households during this grant cycle.
Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and
participate in homeownership.
The CCHA also sponsors and supports self-sufficiency programs focused at helping their residents
improve their economic situation and quality of living. The programs, ROSS and FSS, are voluntary
self-sufficiency programs that provide participating families the opportunity to identify needs,
improve skill sets, and work towards life goals, economic independence, and housing self-
sufficiency programs provide families with:
• A plan specifically tailored to their family or individual goals.
• A link to community organizations geared towards education, job training and placement
programs, computer and financial literacy, and increased self-sufficiency.
• An advocate and supporter to help residents work through barriers preventing self-
sufficiency.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i)
Introduction
Collier County’s 2021-2025 Consolidated Plan identifies increasing housing options for homeless
and at risk of homelessness as a strategic priority. Long-term objectives include supporting
emergency housing and supportive services, and the implementation of a coordinated entry
system.
The 2021 ESG allocation will fund emergency shelter and prevention services that are projected
to assist homeless and at-risk of homeless beneficiaries. The identified projects target homeless
individuals and families who lack the resources to independently regain stable housing. Programs
are designed to connect clients with the services necessary to ensure they move from emergency
shelter to transitional or permanent housing.
Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness
including
Collier County will utilize Emergency Solutions Grants funding for Emergency Shelter,
Homelessness Prevention, Rapid Re-Housing, HMIS administration, and ESG program
administration. Funding for these programs is projected to benefit homeless persons and those
at risk of homelessness. Projects selected for funding are designed to help shorten the period the
client experiences homelessness, improve their ability to secure stable housing, and prevent
recurrent homeless episodes.
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their
individual needs
Collier County funds subrecipients that administer homelessness projects under the ESG
program. They work to build trusting relationships with homeless persons living on the streets
and in shelters as well as at-risk populations to remain stably housed. The subrecipients perform
assessments for homeless persons and those at risk of homelessness to link them to shelter and
other supportive services that are appropriate to meet their needs. All subrecipients funded
through Collier County ESG will participate in coordinated entry. These organizations provide
emergency shelter, rental and utility assistance, food and clothing, and other homeless services
to individuals, families with children, veterans, unaccompanied youth, and including persons with
HIV.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
Collier County currently awards its ESG entitlement funds to subrecipients for the operation of
emergency shelters, financial assistance through rapid re-housing to become stably housed, and
homeless prevention programs to serve individuals and families. Some emergency shelters and
homeless prevention programs are designed to focus their services to the needs of specific
populations such as families, victims of domestic violence, human trafficking victims, persons

being evicted, and persons with severe mental health disorders or substance abuse histories.
In response to the HEARTH Act and 24 CFR part 576, Collier County, in collaboration with its
subrecipients are working together to prevent homelessness by helping families remain within
their communities and retain their current permanent housing or diverting people to permanent
housing solutions. The first step in this process was to streamline the intake of homeless families
seeking emergency shelter. The improved coordination will result in more families being diverted
away from homelessness and more families exiting homelessness and being rapidly re-housed in
permanent housing. Other than the funds available through this process, emergency shelter and
transitional housing needs may be addressed through grant funding opportunities, such as the
competitive Continuum of Care process, or through other state or local funding streams.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families
with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to
permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that
individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals
and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were
recently homeless from becoming homeless again
The County will continue to administer the Emergency Solutions Grants Program and oversee
activities for homeless individuals and families. The County has identified rapid re-housing as a
priority during the next Consolidated Plan period. Obtaining permanent housing for homeless
individuals and families will shorten the length of time spent in emergency and transitional
shelters.
Collier County encourages collaboration with organizations to transition as many people as
possible into permanent housing as quickly as possible. Some families or individuals may require
only limited assistance for a short period of time, such as emergency food and shelter -- until a
first paycheck is received or a medical emergency has passed. Others, however, will require more
comprehensive and long-term assistance, such as transitional housing with supportive services
and job training. Due to limited resources, it is important for agencies to eliminate duplication of
effort by local agencies, both in intake and assessment procedures, and in subsequent housing
and supportive services. The Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) can be
improved with common intake forms, shared data, effective assessment instruments and
procedures, and on-going coordination of assistance among community organizations.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely
low-income individuals and families and those who are: being discharged from publicly funded
institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster
care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving
assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services,
employment, education, or youth needs
Collier County will continue to operate its rental assistance program in 2021-2022 to assist
families and individuals to avoid becoming homeless. This program seeks to prevent

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j)
Introduction:
The inventory of affordable housing in Collier County is not sufficient to meet the demand for
affordable units. One of the primary challenges to creating and preserving affordable housing in
Collier County is that household income is failing to keep up with rising housing costs. The local
economy is focused on retail, hospitality, services, and agriculture; however, high housing costs
have priced out much of the workforce needed for the county to function.
Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve
as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning
ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the
return on residential investment
Collier County faces a burgeoning issue in trying to identify, quantify and qualify new and existing
affordable housing units. With a wider range of housing options, Collier County would be better
equipped to tackle the affordable housing problem. The effort requires comprehensive strategies
and a variety of tools that can be used alone or in combination to reduce costs and increase
availability.
During this consolidated plan period, Collier County will continue to Review and Revise the Land
Development Code which, if done well will make it easier to implement necessary changes to
encourage housing affordability. The current Land Development Code (LDC) does not consistently
support and encourage growth in already existing urbanized areas of the county (those areas
generally west of Collier Parkway). Many of the LDC’s ordinances are geared toward large-scale,
planned-unit developments (PUDs) on greenfield sites. Conversely, smaller-scale redevelopment
and infill sites in already developed areas of the county are challenging to consolidate, may need
to address adjacent uses and neighborhood concerns, and often require additional density to
make them financially feasible. Collier County can also consider reducing parking standards to
achieve affordability, permitting guest houses as accessory dwelling rental unit, encouraging
smart-site infrastructure, and identify strategic opportunity sites.
AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k)
Introduction:
In addition to the programs and activities described on the prior sections of this plan, the County
and its subrecipients intend to undertake a number of other actions to address housing needs

Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs
Collier County will collaborate with community leaders, stakeholders, and local non-profit
agencies to help remove obstacles to better meet the needs of the underserved population and
improve service delivery. The County will coordinate the work of non The County relies on
agencies on nonprofit agencies to provide social services, disseminate news and information, and
spearhead community-wide solutions to local needs. Collier County will also support the
expansion of HMIS technology beyond homeless service providers as a way to link the various
categories of services provided by our partner non-profit organizations and standardize
performance measures. The County will also review and analyze the work of its various
departments and divisions to find opportunities for collaboration between similar programs.
Program staff will also ensure that all fair housing education materials are current and compliant
with the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Final Rule.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing.
Collier County will actively work to address the need for more decent and affordable housing by
continuing to prioritize the investment of funds into all its housing programs. In the interest of
preserving affordable housing, the County will continue to support the use of HOME program
funds for activities such as: down-payment assistance, land acquisition, TBRA, and
single/multifamily acquisitions and rehabilitation. Additionally, the County will continue to utilize
CDBG program funds to rehabilitate owner-occupied homes. To promote fair housing choice, the
County will encourage and support fair housing rights for all and provide program funds to
conduct outreach and education regarding the Fair Housing Law act of 1968.
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards.
Collier County will continue to implement countermeasures to reduce lead-based paint hazards
by abating or removing lead-based paint hazards found in existing housing built prior to 1978.
Individuals who reside in properties built prior to 1978 and receive assistance through CDBG,
ESG, or HOME grant programs are required to be inspected for lead-based paint hazards. These
inspections are completed by a HUD Certified Inspector in accordance with HUD and
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines. Collier County educates the public on the
hazards of lead-based paint and how to protect children and the elderly. In response to lead-
based paint hazards and the limited resources available, the County has planned a steady, long-
term response in accordance with Federal lead-based paint standards, other applicable federal
regulations, and local property standards. Policies and procedures for abatement of lead hazards
have been established in Collier County, which include determining cost effectiveness for
abatement and procedures for assessing, contracting, and inspecting post-abatement work. The
policies and procedures also include preparing work write-ups and costs estimates for all income
eligible persons in Collier County with identified lead-based paint hazards.

Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families
Collier County will continue to increase its efforts to implement anti-poverty strategies for the
citizens of Collier. The County will strive to increase its efforts in assisting homeowners and
renters with housing rehabilitation and renovation of affordable housing to decrease the
financial burden on low-to-moderate-income persons.
The County will employ the following strategies to reduce the number of poverty-level families:
1. Support the collaborative efforts of the service providers in Collier County to attract new
business and industry to Collier.
2. Support the efforts of the Chamber of Commerce to target certain segments of the
economy for business development/job creation.
3. Encourage nonprofit organizations to expand housing development programs to
incorporate job-training opportunities as a part of their operations.
4. Promote the use of referral services for the existing Human Service Centers which
involves a partnership with many human service agencies, including job referrals.
5. Provide assistance to the County’s CHDO to acquire and construct affordable rental
housing for low/moderate income persons.
6. Participate in the development of a regional social service collaborative to coordinate
the work of social service organizations, disseminate news and information, eliminate
duplication of efforts, and spearhead community-wide solutions to local needs.
7. Use enhanced accomplishment data as a criterion in the evaluation of applications for
ESG funding.
8. Support any expansion of local transit service and/or for express transit service.
Through the initiatives described above, and in cooperation with the agencies and nonprofit
organizations noted, the Community and Human Services Department will continue to assist low
and moderate-income persons of Collier County over the next five years.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
The Community and Human Services Department administers, plans, and manages all facets of
the HUD grants for Collier County to ensure that all aspects of the grant programs perform in a
concerted manner. The department will work as the housing and community development liaison
between the county, local public housing, participating cities, state agencies, and non-profit and
community-based organizations. Collier County recognizes the need to maintain a high level of
coordination on projects involving other departments and/or non-profit organizations. This
collaboration guarantees an efficient use of resources with maximum output in the form of
accomplishments.

Reference 24 CFR 91.220(l)(2)
1. A description of other forms of investment being used beyond those identified in Section
92.205 is as follows:
Collier County does not use other forms of investment.
2. A description of the guidelines that will be used for resale or recapture of HOME funds
when used for homebuyer activities as required in 92.254, is as follows:
The County’s Recapture Provisions permit the original homebuyer to sell the property to any
willing buyer, at any price the market will bear, during the period of affordability while the
County is able to recapture all, or a portion of the HOME-assistance provided to the original
homebuyer.
Collier County utilizes a recapture policy in compliance of 24 CFR 92.254. The affordability
period is determined based upon the amount of HOME Investment Partnerships Program
funds invested into an individual project. HOME Regulations set three minimum tiers of
affordability periods.
When a homeowner chooses to sell or use the property for non-eligible HOME Program
activities during the Period of Affordability, the full amount of the HOME Program Direct
Subsidy shall be recaptured and repaid to Collier County provided that net proceeds are
sufficient. If net proceeds are insufficient to repay the total HOME investment due, only the
actual net proceeds will be recaptured. In the event that net proceeds are zero (as is usually
the case with foreclosure), the recapture provision still applies. Recaptured funds shall be
returned to the Collier County to reinvest in other affordable housing projects for low- to

moderate-income persons.
The County’s Resale Provisions shall ensure that, when a HOME-assisted homebuyer sells or
otherwise transfers his or her property, either voluntarily or involuntarily, during the
affordability period:
1) The property is sold to another low-income homebuyer who will use the property as
his or her principal residence.
2) The original homebuyer receives a fair return on investment, (i.e., the homebuyer’s
down payment plus capital improvements made to the house); and
3) The property is sold at a price that is “affordable for a reasonable range of low-income
buyers.”
The County’s Recapture and Resale Provisions are included in full in the Appendix.
3. A description of the guidelines for resale or recapture that ensures the affordability of units
acquired with HOME funds? See 24 CFR 92.254(a)(4) are as follows:
Development Subsidy – a development subsidy is defined as financial assistance provided by
the County to offset the difference between the total cost of producing a housing unit and
the fair market value of the unit. When provided independently and absent any additional
subsidy that could be classified a direct subsidy, development subsidy triggers resale.
Direct Subsidy – a direct subsidy is defined as financial assistance provided by the County that
reduces the purchase price for a homebuyer below market value or otherwise subsidizes the
homebuyer [i.e., down-payment loan, purchase financing, assistance to CHDO to develop and
sell unit below market or closing cost assistance]. A direct subsidy triggers recapture.
Net Proceeds – the sales price minus superior loan repayment (other than HOME funds) and
any closing costs.
The County’s Recapture and Resale Provisions are included in full in the Appendix.

a) Include written standards for providing ESG assistance (may include as attachment)
Collier County’s ESG Policy and Procedures Manual is attached as an appendix to this Plan.
b) If the Continuum of Care has established centralized or coordinated assessment system
that meets HUD requirements, describe that centralized or coordinated assessment
system.
Coordinated Entry is a streamlined system designed to efficiently match people
experiencing homelessness or those at-risk of homelessness to available housing, shelter,
and services. It prioritizes those who are most in need of assistance and provides crucial
information that helps the Continuum of Care strategically allocate resources. Anyone
seeking homelessness or homelessness prevention services in Collier County will complete
a coordinated entry assessment which is subsequently evaluated for services.
c) Identify the process for making sub-awards and describe how the ESG allocation available
to private nonprofit organizations (including community and faith-based organizations).
The County provides a competitive process for awarding all entitlement funding. This is
widely advertised formally, via email, and at partnership meetings. A review and ranking
committee reviews applications for merit and compliance. The CoC is provided an
opportunity to support or not support an application. Eventually, the recommended
awardees are noted in the Annual Action Plan. All public comment requirements are
followed. The Annual Action Plan is presented to the Board of County Commissioners for
approval, and then to HUD. The process is as follows:
1. Identification of community development issues, needs, and concerns through community
meetings and citizen input.
2. Formulation of community development goals and preliminary strategies, i.e., staff and
citizens.
3. Dissemination of Grant Funds information to agencies and individuals
4. Submission of Project applications; and
5. Project Selection: Review of project applications by review committee ii. Present
recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners, Public Hearing and Final Selection
sent to HUD
d) If the jurisdiction is unable to meet the homeless participation requirement in 24 CFR
576.405(a), the jurisdiction must specify its plan for reaching out to and consulting with
homeless or formerly homeless individuals in considering policies and funding decisions
regarding facilities and services funded under ESG.

through the Continuum of Care, which is led by the Collier County Hunger and Homeless
Coalition. The CoC comments on funding applications and considers policies regarding
homeless facilities and services. Other organizations representing the homeless provided
input for the Consolidated Planning process, and a focus group was held at the Shelter for
Abused Women and Children to gather input about housing and community development
priorities. The County will continue to secure consultation with homeless or formerly
homeless individuals, along with local organizations that represent and provide services to
the homeless.
e) Describe performance standards for evaluating ESG.
Performance standards provide a measure for Collier County to evaluate the effectiveness
of each ESG service provider in the areas of: (a) Targeting those who need assistance most;
(b) Reducing the number of people living on the streets or in emergency shelters; (c)
Reducing the time people spend homeless; and (d) Reducing clients’ housing barriers or
housing stability risks.
In addition, the County evaluates the success of ESG programs by reviewing Homeless Management
Information System (HMIS) data . Sub recipients are required to submit regular reports which are
reviewed by staff. These reports are used to ensure ESG compliance with regulations and local written
standards as well as confirming that program goals are being met. ESG programs are also subjected
to “on-site monitoring.” The County has a Monitoring Group to monitor the ESG programs. This group
has participated in over 100 federal grant evaluation designs, evaluation projects, and
implementation of evaluation plans. The basis for monitoring is to address findings and provides
recommendations for program improvements
Collier County will also evaluate each ESG service provider’s performance based on the
following standards:
a) Subrecipients will develop and adhere to priorities for service delivery by need.
b) Subrecipients will assist clients in rapid movement to permanent housing from
shelters or from the street.
c) Subrecipients will ensure that clients have easy access to services.
d) Subrecipients will provide comprehensive case management to address a spectrum
of needs for each client.

Sharon Umpenhour: 00:01 Okay, we're recording.
Wayne Arnold: 00:01 All right.
Wayne Arnold: 00:03 Well good evening everybody. I'm Wayne Arnold with
GradyMinor & Associates and we're here tonight to talk about
two applications that are pending with Collier County
Government. We don't have any audience attendees other than
staff and the development team, but we do have a couple of
folks on Zoom. So I hope you all can hear us fine and can see the
video. I'll make some project introductions, but we're here for a
project that is located just east of the intersection of Livingston
Road and on the north side of Vanderbilt Beach Road. It's about
5.8 acres and it's currently the home of a pet resort and a
defunct equestrian facility. And we're proposing a conference of
plan amendment and a PD rezoning application in order to
develop up to 150 multifamily rental dwelling units on the
property of which we have proposed 22.6% of those to be
affordable units, income restricted.
01:04 So introduce the team. We have Andy Bollig who's here as a
development partner with Roers Acquisitions. Rich Yovanovich
is our land use counsel. I'm Wayne Arnold. Mike Delate, our civil
engineer with GradyMinor & Associates. Jim Bank is our traffic
engineer and we have a biologist who's not in attendance, but
Marco Espinar did the environmental assessment for the site.
01:27 The project is highlighted here on the screen in yellow and you
can see the existing structures. Those are all set to be raised
assuming this project is approved. And again, the property's
about 5.8 acres and located just east of Livingston Road. To our
west is a project called Bradford Square, which is a age
restricted senior housing project and to the east of us, is a
project called Sandalwood Village, which also is an age
restricted independent living facility. And to our north is the
Tiburon Golf Club.
02:04 This is a project information sheet that lets you know that we
are modifying the future land use map. We're creating a new
subdistrict to establish the property to be allowed to have 150
multi-family rental units on that. And again, we're proposing
that 22.6% of those would be income restricted homes.

Sharon Umpenhour: 02:27 Just a correction on that Future land use designation, the
proposed, it's incorrect.
Wayne Arnold: 02:33 Okay. We are proposing the new subdistrict and it'll be the
Matson Vanderbilt Beach Road, subdistrict. We have to create a
series of maps for the county as part of our small scale plan
amendment. And this is a map that identifies the location for
the mixed use subdistrict that will be for the subject property.
Again, this is another series of maps with some of our sub-
district language, and here it highlights, in paragraph C, the total
units that are constructed, 22.6% of those would be income
restricted, half of that number at the 80% or less and the others
up to 100%.
03:18 Here's a conceptual master plan that we developed for the
zoning application that identifies a central access point on
Vanderbilt Beach Road, and then it's an 'H" shaped building with
an interior courtyard amenity area with parking surrounding the
building, some of which will probably have carport covered
structures on it. This is a color version, just adds a little more
clarity to where the green space, buffers, water management
and the amenity areas will be located.
03:51 We propose to enhance the buffer adjacent to the Tiburon Golf
Club with a series of clustered sable palm trees. Similar to what
was prepared for the Sable, or excuse me, the Sandalwood
Village project to our east. We have to propose development
standards for the project highlighted here. Maximum building
height. We establish a zone height of 50 feet and we're
proposing an actual height that the maximum building height
for any part of the structure would be 60 feet.
04:22 These are some images from other Roers projects. The building
that's shown there is not a four-story building, but we're
proposing in the 50-foot zone height to have a four-story
apartment building. But you can see the quality of the finish
that Roers intends to provide here with some of their outdoor
amenity areas and just the architectural details.
04:45 So in the process we're required to hold a neighborhood
informational meeting, which we're conducting tonight. Our
next step will be to go to the Collier County Planning
Commission, which we do not have a hearing date established
yet. Separate mail notices will be provided to surrounding
property owners once that date is established. And then after
the planning commission, they will make a recommendation to

the Board of County Commissioners. And that meeting has not
yet been set, but those are our next steps and the County
Commission will hold one final hearing and make a decision to
approve, approve with conditions, or deny the application.
05:19 This is an informational sheet. Sharon Umpenhour, who's in
charge of our audio system here tonight, is also our contact in
our office for any of the information. So we upload on our
website this presentation as well as other project information
that is submitted to Collier County for the project and we
continue to update it as we provide any updates to Collier
County staff. So we will continue on through what's known as
our Sufficiency Process until we get to our first planning
commission hearing. And again, signs will be posted on the site
when that hearing's established as well as mail notice is going
out to surround the property members.
05:56 So that's our quick presentation. I'm happy to take any
questions you may have from those attendees on Zoom. If you'd
unmute if you have a question, that would be great.
Robert Campbell: 06:11 The only question I have... Hello. My name's Robert Campbell.
I'm with TGM Communities. We actually own TG and Bermuda
Island directly across the Vanderbilt Road from the proposed
site. I just had a question. Did you say that the document that
you're sharing now will be uploaded onto the gradyminor.com
planning website?
Sharon Umpenhour: 06:35 It's already there.
Wayne Arnold: 06:35 Yes, sir. It's there now. It'll be shared-
Robert Campbell: 06:36 Oh, this version is already there, correct?
Wayne Arnold: 06:37 It is. We uploaded that late this afternoon.
Robert Campbell: 06:39 Okay. Much appreciated. It looks exciting.
Wayne Arnold: 06:46 Thank you. Any other comments or questions? I know there's
another attendee on the Zoom.
Robert Campbell: 06:54 He's actually a colleague of mine.
Wayne Arnold: 06:55 Oh, okay. Great.
Sharon Umpenhour: 06:56 Mr. Ruiz, is that your colleague?

Sharon Umpenhour: 07:01 Oh, okay. Thank you.
Wayne Arnold: 07:01 Great. Well, we're happy to answer any questions you may have
as we go through the process or if you all think of anything else,
we're glad to get information to you. We appreciate you.
Robert Campbell: 07:10 No, I think everything looks great. I appreciate the presentation.
Looking forward to seeing how it all plays out.
Wayne Arnold: 07:17 Okay, well great. Thank you so much. Well, with that, I guess
we'll adjourn. Thanks for participating and look forward to
hearing from you. Thanks.
Robert Campbell: 07:24 All right, have a great day.

GROWTH MANAGEMENT PLAN (GMP) CONSISTENCY:
Future Land Use Element (FLUE): The existing Future Land Use Element (FLUE), Future Land
Use Map (FLUM) and Map Series of the Collier County Growth Management Plan (GMP)
designates the subject property as Urban, Mixed-Use District, Urban Residential Subdistrict.
The Urban Residential Subdistrict provides for higher-density residential uses, with the maximum
density determined by the Density Rating System; however, in no case shall the maximum density
exceed 16 dwelling units per acre in the Urban Residential Subdistrict.
Staff calculation of the maximum allowable density, based upon the existing FLUE designation
and applicable Density Rating System criteria, is 59 dwelling units, or 10 dwelling units per
acre (DU/A) for market rate DUs. This is derived by adding the eligible base density of four (4)
DU/A to the two (2) eligible density bonuses of Residential In-fill three (3) DU/A and
TCMA - Transportation Concurrency Management Areas three (3) DU/A. If the project
included affordable housing per LDC Section 2.06.00, then the project could be eligible for a
density bonus of up to six (6) DU/A to achieve the maximum 16 DU/A allowed by the Density
Rating System.
The rezoning proposal is for 150 multi-family rental units on 5.88 acres, resulting in a density of
25.5 DU/A (15.5 dwelling units above the maximum density of 10 DU/A that can be achieved
through the Density Rating System for market-rate development). The proposed density cannot be
achieved through the Density Rating System and exceeds the maximum allowable density within
the Urban Residential Subdistrict. Therefore, the proposal is inconsistent with the FLUE. To
achieve the proposed density of 25.5 DU/A, a GMP Amendment (GMPA) is required.
The GMPA petition, in addition to the increase in density, proposes a reduction in Open Space
from that required by Section 4.07.02.G.1 of the LDC, which states, “Within PUD Districts
composed entirely of residential dwelling units, at least 60 percent of the gross area shall be
devoted to usable open space.” The GMPA Subdistrict language proposes reducing open space
from 60 percent to 40 percent.
Comprehensive Planning and Zoning Planning staff agree that a residential project's proposed
open space reduction is appropriately requested through the zoning deviation process rather than
through the proposed GMP text since the open space is an LDC regulation.
Staff has several concerns with the proposed petition. The increase in density to 25.5 DU/A is not
consistent with the surrounding residential densities, and the reduction in open space is not
supported by staff. If the Planning Commission approves the GMPA and PUD petitions,
staff recommends the provision of commensurate public benefit in the form of additional
affordable housing units. The provision of 30 percent affordable units, rather than the 22.6 percent
standard generally utilized in petitions, should be considered for the increase in density to 25.5
DU/A. The commensurate public benefit to offset the reduction in open space would increase the
provision of affordable units to 34 percent. The increase to 30 percent affordable housing
would result in 45 affordable units, 11 additional affordable housing units over the number of
units achieved by the 22.6 percent provision. The public benefit of the 11 additional affordable
units could support the increase in density. The increase to 34 percent affordable housing
would result in 51 affordable units, six additional affordable housing units over the number of
units achieved by the provision of 30 percent. This could support the reduction in useable open
space that would benefit the residents of a dense urban rental project. Instead, a public benefit to
the County, in the form of additional affordable housing units, may be acceptable.

Transportation Element: In evaluating this project, staff reviewed the August 8, 2023 (revised),
Traffic Impact Statement for consistency with Policy 5.1 of the Transportation Element of the
Growth Management Plan (GMP) using the current 2022 Annual Update and Inventory Reports
(AUIR).
Policy 5.1 of the Transportation Element of the GMP states;
“The County Commission shall review all rezone petitions, SRA designation applications,
conditional use petitions, and proposed amendments to the Future Land Use Element
(FLUE) affecting the overall countywide density or intensity of permissible development,
with consideration of their impact on the overall County transportation system, and shall not
approve any petition or application that would directly access a deficient roadway segment
as identified in the current AUIR or if it impacts an adjacent roadway segment that is
deficient as identified in the current AUIR, or which significantly impacts a roadway segment
or adjacent roadway segment that is currently operating and/or is projected to operate below
an adopted Level of Service Standard within the five year AUIR planning period, unless
specific mitigating stipulations are also approved. A petition or application has significant
impacts if the traffic impact statement reveals that any of the following occur:
a.For links (roadway segments) directly accessed by the project where project traffic is
equal to or exceeds 2% of the adopted LOS standard service volume;
b.For links adjacent to links directly accessed by the project where project traffic is equal
to or exceeds 2% of the adopted LOS standard service volume; and
c.For all other links the project traffic is considered to be significant up to the point where
it is equal to or exceeds 3% of the adopted LOS standard service volume.
Mitigating stipulations shall be based upon a mitigation plan prepared by the applicant
and submitted as part of the traffic impact statement that addresses the project’s
significant impacts on all roadways.”
Staff finding: According to the TIS provided with this petition, the proposed development will
generate a projected total of +/- 85 PM peak hour, 2-way trips on the adjacent roadway segments
of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Livingston Road. The trips generated by this development will occur

•(1) Source for P.M. Peak Hour/Peak Direction Project Traffic is from the petitioner's August 8,
2023 Traffic Impact Statement.
•(2) Expected deficient by trip bank; see State Statute 169.3180 below.
Section 163.3180 of the Florida Statutes requires a local government to satisfy transportation
concurrency requirements if the applicant enters into a binding agreement to pay or construct
their proportionate share. The Statutes further state that any facility determined to be
transportation deficient with existing, committed, and vested trips, plus additional projected
background trips from any source other than the development project under review and trips
that are forecast by established traffic standards, including traffic modeling, consistent with the
University of Florida’s Bureau of Economic and Business Research medium population
projections, without the project traffic under review, the costs of correcting that deficiency shall
be removed from the project’s proportionate-share calculation and the necessary transportation
improvements to correct that deficiency shall be considered to be in place for purposes of the
proportionate-share calculation. The improvement necessary to correct the transportation
deficiency is the funding responsibility of the entity that has maintenance responsibility for the

facility. The development’s proportionate share shall be calculated only for the needed
transportation improvements that are greater than the identified deficiency. In addition, per the
Statute, the applicant is eligible for a dollar-for-dollar credit for the road impact fees anticipated
for the development.
Based on the TIS, State Statues, the 2021, and the 2022 AUIR, the subject PUD can be found
consistent with Policy 5.1 of the Transportation Element of the Growth Management Plan. The
Traffic Impact Statement (TIS) indicates that the adjacent roadway network has sufficient capacity
to accommodate this project within the 5-year planning period.
Conservation and Coastal Management Element (CCME): Environmental review staff has
found this project to be consistent with the Conservation & Coastal Management Element
(CCME). The project site has been cleared; no preservation is required. The project site is 5.88
acres and consists of 12 native trees meeting the preservation standards.
GMP Conclusion: The proposed PUD is inconsistent with the GMP unless the Board approves
the companion GMPA first or concurrently with the PUD and the uses and intensities align.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Applications to rezone to or to amend RPUDs shall be in the form of a RPUD Master Plan of
development, along with a list of permitted and accessory uses and a development standards table.
The RPUD application shall also include a list of developer commitments and any proposed
deviations from the LDC. Staff has completed a comprehensive evaluation of this land use
petition, including the criteria upon which a recommendation must be based, specifically noted
in LDC Section 10.02.13.B.5, Planning Commission Recommendation (commonly referred to as
the “PUD Findings”), and Section 10.02.08.F, Nature of Requirements of Planning
Commission Report (referred to as “Rezone Findings”), which establish the legal basis to
support the CCPC’s recommendation. The CCPC uses the aforementioned criteria as the basis for
its recommendation to the Board, who in turn use the criteria to support their action on the
rezoning or amendment request. An evaluation relative to these subsections is discussed below
under the heading “Zoning Services Analysis.” In addition, staff offers the following analyses:
Environmental Review: Environmental Services staff has reviewed the petition to address
environmental concerns. The property has been developed and maintained clear of native vegetation
required to be preserved. The Master Plan does not show a preserve since no minimum
preservation is required. The site does contain 12 native trees that meet the preservation standards
of LDC Section 3.05.07, which will require two (2) trees to be preserved (12 Existing Trees x
15%). No listed animal species were observed on the property; however, the Florida Fish and
Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) wildlife data indicate the presence of a Black Bear
(Ursus americanus floridanus) in the area. A black bear management plan will need to be included
in the PPL or SDP review.
Transportation Review: The Transportation Planning staff has reviewed the petition for compliance
with the GMP and the LDC. Transportation Planning Staff recommends approval of the proposed
Mattson at Vanderbilt PUDZ.

Revised: November 8, 2023
Utility Review: The project lies within the regional potable water service area and the North County
Water Reclamation Facility’s wastewater service area of the Collier County Water-Sewer District
(CCWSD). Water and wastewater services are available via existing infrastructure within the
adjacent right-of-way. Sufficient water and wastewater treatment capacities are available.
Any improvements to the CCWSD’s water or wastewater systems necessary to provide sufficient
capacity to serve the project will be the responsibility of the owner/developer and will be conveyed
to the CCWSD at no cost to the County at the time of utility acceptance.
Landscape Review: The applicant is not seeking any deviations related to landscaping. The buffers
labeled on the Master Plan meet or exceed the requirements of the LDC.
Stormwater Review: Stormwater Management Section staff has reviewed the petition for
compliance with the GMP and the LDC and recommends approval of this project.
Zoning Services Review: This request is a rezone from a Rural Agricultural (A) zoning district to a
Residential Planned Unit Development (RPUD) Zoning District to allow construction of up to 150
multi-family dwelling units up to a maximum density of 25.5 dwelling units per acre (DU/A).
Within the proposed Mattson at Vanderbilt RPUD boundaries, the minimum PUD front yard
setback is 50 feet, and the minimum PUD setback is 75 feet along the north, east, and west
boundaries. The proposed heights have a zoned height of 50 feet and an actual building height of
60 feet. To the north is the Golf Course, Recreation, and Open Space (GCO) District, with a
maximum height of 50 feet within the Pelican Marsh DRI/PUD. To the south is the Residential (R)
District with a maximum height of 50 feet with the Vineyards PUD. To the west is the Bradford
Square MPUD, with a zoned height of 43 feet and an actual height of 53 feet for group housing. To
the east is the Vanderbilt Trust 1989 CFPUD, with a zoned height of 50 feet and a zoned height of
62 feet for principal structures. As such, the proposed heights within Mattson at Vanderbilt RPUD
are compatible with the immediate neighborhoods. As illustrated in the PUD Master Plan, a 15-
foot-wide Type D Buffer is proposed along Vanderbilt Beach Road, a 10-foot Type A buffer is
proposed along the eastern and western perimeters, and an enhanced 15-foot-wide Type B buffer is
proposed along the northern perimeter. As such, the landscaping buffers will provide natural
transitions around and within the RPUD. The development standards will provide adequate
setbacks, limitations on height, and buffers to ensure compatibility with adjacent land uses.
Companion item to this petition (GMPA-PL20220001010; Mattson at Vanderbilt Residential
Subdistrict) will seek to allow for a maximum of 150 multi-family rental dwelling units, 40 percent
usable open space, and affordable housing commitment of 22.6% of the dwelling units identified
as affordable. Regarding the allowance of the 40 percent open space, it should be noted that per
LDC 4.07.02.G.1, PUD Districts composed entirely of residential dwelling units and accessory
uses, at least 60 percent of the gross area shall be devoted to open space. The agent has provided a
rationale as to the reasoning behind the request for the 40% open space requirement in the Mattson
at Vanderbilt Residential Subdistrict; see the italicized excerpt below.
The Mattson at Vanderbilt project represents redevelopment and an infill residential project on
5.9+/- acres. The project proposes constructing 22.6% of the dwelling units as income-restricted

affordable housing, for which demand is well-documented. The applicant is proposing a project
with comparable building heights to the adjacent independent rental apartments for seniors and
has proposed locating the 4-story apartment building central to the site. Due to the size of the infill
parcel, meeting the 60% usable open space standard would render the site unusable for buildings
at the proposed 4-story height. A taller building, having less lot coverage, would be necessary to
meet the 60% open space requirement. The proposed building height is in keeping with the two
adjacent senior housing projects and other nearby development. The applicant has proposed an
enhanced project buffer adjacent to the Tiburon Golf Course to ensure compatibility and increase
the effective open space for the site.
Staff cannot support this petition as submitted; if the Planning Commission recommends approval,
then staff recommends that 30% affordable housing be required as a public benefit for the requested
25.5 (DU/AC) and a total of 34% affordable housing if a deviation is granted for the open space
reduction.
CONCURRENT PETITION AT THE SUBJECT PROPERTY
On July 25, 2023, the agent submitted Mattson at Vanderbilt - (SDP) PL20230007212 for a
proposed multi-family apartment complex consisting of 150 residential units in a 4-story building.
The project will include an attached amenity area with a pool, pickleball court, outdoor rec areas,
dog run, trash compactor and dumpster, water management areas, and utility infrastructure.
PUD FINDINGS:
LDC Section 10.02.13.B.5 states that, “In support of its recommendation, the CCPC shall make
findings as to the PUD Master Plan’s compliance with the following criteria in addition to the
findings in LDC Section 10.02.08”:
1.The suitability of the area for the type and pattern of development proposed in relation
to the physical characteristics of the land, surrounding areas, traffic and access,
drainage, sewer, water, and other utilities.
Water and wastewater mains are available along Vanderbilt Beach Road. There are adequate
water and wastewater treatment capacities to serve the project.
Any improvements to the CCWSD’s water or wastewater systems necessary to provide
sufficient capacity to serve the project will be the responsibility of the owner/developer and
will be conveyed to the CCWSD at no cost to the County at the time of utility acceptance.
Moreover, stormwater management details will be addressed at the time of SFWMD
Environmental Resource Permitting (ERP) and County Site Development Permit
(SDP)/Plans and Plat Permit (PPL) permitting.
2.Adequacy of evidence of unified control and suitability of any proposed agreements,
contracts, or other instruments or for amendments in those proposed, particularly as
they may relate to arrangements or provisions to be made for the continuing operation
and maintenance of such areas and facilities that are not to be provided or maintained

at public expense.
Documents submitted with the application, which the County Attorney’s Office reviewed,
demonstrate unified property control.
3.Conformity of the proposed Planned Unit Development with the goals, objectives, and
policies of the Growth Management Plan (GMP).
County staff has reviewed this petition and offered an analysis of conformity with the GMP's
relevant goals, objectives, and policies within the GMP Consistency portion of this staff
report.
4.The internal and external compatibility of proposed uses, which conditions may
include restrictions on location of improvements, restrictions on design, and buffering
and screening requirements.
As described in the Staff Analysis section of this staff report subsection Landscape Review,
staff is of the opinion that the proposed project will be compatible with the surrounding
area. The buffers proposed in the Master Plan meet or exceed LDC requirements.
5.The adequacy of usable open space areas in existence and as proposed to serve the
development.
The RPUD is required to provide at least 60% of the gross area for usable open space. No
deviation from the open space requirement is requested; however, 40% open space is
requested within the companion petition - Mattson at Vanderbilt Residential Subdistrict.
Staff recommends removing the GMPA language regarding open space and requesting a
deviation through the zoning petition. Staff does not support the reduction of open space in
a dense urban apartment community. If the Planning Commission approves the reduction in
open space, then Staff recommends that commensurate public benefit be required by
provision of additional affordable housing.
6.The timing or sequence of development for the purpose of ensuring the adequacy of
available improvements and facilities, both public and private.
The roadway infrastructure has sufficient to serve the proposed project, as noted in the
Transportation Element consistency review. Operational impacts will be addressed at the
first development order (SDP or Plat) when a new TIS will be required to demonstrate
turning movements for all site access points. Finally, the project’s development must
comply with all other applicable concurrency management regulations when development
approvals, including but not limited to any plats and or site development plans, are sought.
Water and wastewater mains are available along Vanderbilt Beach Road. There are adequate
water and wastewater treatment capacities to serve the project.

Any improvements to the CCWSD’s water or wastewater systems necessary to provide
sufficient capacity to serve the project will be the responsibility of the owner/developer and
will be conveyed to the CCWSD at no cost to the County at the time of utility acceptance.
7.The ability of the subject property and surrounding areas to accommodate expansion.
Water and wastewater mains are available along Vanderbilt Beach Road. There are adequate
water and wastewater treatment capacities to serve the project.
Any improvements to the CCWSD’s water or wastewater systems necessary to provide
sufficient capacity to serve the project will be the responsibility of the owner/developer and
will be conveyed to the CCWSD at no cost to the County at the time of utility acceptance.
8.Conformity with PUD regulations, or as to desirable modifications of such regulations
in the particular case, based on a determination that such modifications are justified
as meeting public purposes to a degree at least equivalent to the literal application of
such regulations.
One deviation is proposed in connection with this request to rezone to RPUD. See the
deviations section of the staff report beginning on page 14.
Rezone Findings:
LDC Subsection 10.02.08.F states, “When pertaining to the rezoning of land, the report and
recommendations to the planning commission to the Board of County Commissioners…shall show
that the planning commission has studied and considered a proposed change in relation to the
following when applicable”:
1.Whether the proposed change will be consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies
of the Future Land Use Map and the elements of the Growth Management Plan.
The proposed PUD is inconsistent with the GMP unless the Board approves the companion
GMPA first or concurrently with the PUD and the uses and intensities align.
2.The existing land use pattern.
This staff report's Surrounding Land Use and Zoning section describes the existing land use
pattern (of the abutting properties). The proposed use is compatible; however, the requested
density is not compatible.
3.The possible creation of an isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts.
The properties that abut the project to the east, north, south, and west allow for residential
uses. Therefore, the proposed petition would not create an isolated district unrelated to
adjacent and nearby districts; however, the requested density is not consistent with the
nearby residential communities.
4.Whether existing district boundaries are illogically drawn in relation to existing
conditions on the property proposed for change.

Revised: November 8, 2023
As shown on the zoning map included at the beginning of this report, the existing district
boundaries are logically drawn. The proposed PUD zoning boundaries follow the property
ownership boundaries. The zoning map on page 2 of the staff report illustrates the perimeter
of the outer boundary of the subject parcel.
5.Whether changed or changing conditions make the passage of the proposed rezoning
necessary.
The proposed rezoning is not necessary, but it is being requested in compliance with the
LDC provisions to seek such changes. It should be noted that the proposed uses are not
allowed under the current zoning classification.
6.Whether the proposed change will adversely influence living conditions in the
neighborhood.
The proposed RPUD is not consistent with the density in the neighborhood.
7.Whether the proposed change will create or excessively increase traffic congestion or
create types of traffic deemed incompatible with surrounding land uses because of
peak volumes or projected types of vehicular traffic, including activity during
construction phases of the development, or otherwise affect public safety.
The roadway infrastructure has adequate capacity to serve the proposed project at this time
and as outlined above, i.e., GMP consistent at the time of rezoning as evaluated as part of
the GMP Transportation Element consistency review. Operational impacts will be
addressed at the time of the first development order (SDP or Plat). Additionally, the
project’s development must comply with all other applicable concurrency management
regulations when development approvals are sought. The Project will also provide a 5-foot
by 25-foot easement for a future Collier Area Transit (CAT) bus stop on Vanderbilt Beach
Road in lieu of the required turn lane compensating ROW.
8.Whether the proposed change will create a drainage problem.
The proposed RPUD request is not anticipated to create a stormwater management problem
in the area, provided an environmental resource permit that adequately addresses
stormwater best management practices, stormwater pollution prevention, urban stormwater
management, on-site stormwater treatment, attenuation storage, flood plain compensation,
and maintenance is obtained from the South Florida Water Management District. County
staff will evaluate the project’s stormwater management system, calculations, and design
criteria at the time of SDP and/or plat review.
9.Whether the proposed change will seriously reduce light and air to adjacent areas.
It is not anticipated this RPUD would reduce light or air to the adjacent areas.
10.Whether the proposed change will adversely affect property values in the adjacent
areas.

This is a subjective determination based upon anticipated results, which may be internal or
external to the subject property. Property valuation is affected by a host of factors, including
zoning; however, zoning by itself may or may not affect values since value determination
is driven by market value.
11.Whether the proposed change will be a deterrent to the improvement or development
of adjacent property in accordance with existing regulations.
Properties to the east, north, south, and west are developed. The basic premise underlying
all the development standards in the LDC is that sound application, when combined with
the site development plan approval process and/or subdivision process, gives reasonable
assurance that a change in zoning will not result in deterrence to improvement or
development of adjacent property. Therefore, the proposed zoning change should not be a
deterrent to the improvement of adjacent properties.
12.Whether the proposed change will constitute a grant of special privilege to an
individual owner, contrasting with the public welfare.
The proposed development is inconsistent with the GMP, so the zoning petition cannot be
supported.
13.Whether there are substantial reasons why the property cannot be used in accordance
with existing zoning.
According to the existing classification, the proposed uses and development standards are
not permitted.
14.Whether the change suggested is out of scale with the neighborhood's or the County's
needs.
The proposed project density is out of scale with the surrounding community; however, the
additional density and reduction in open space may be supported if additional affordable
housing is provided above the 22.6% proposed.
15.Whether it is impossible to find other adequate sites in the County for the proposed
use in districts already permitting such use.
The petition was reviewed for compliance with the GMP and the LDC, and staff does not
specifically review other sites in conjunction with a specific petition.
16.The physical characteristics of the property and the degree of site alteration would be
required to make the property usable for any of the range of p otential uses under the
proposed zoning classification.
Any development anticipated by the PUD Document would require considerable site
alteration, and this project will undergo extensive evaluation relative to all federal, state,

and local development regulations during the SDP and/or platting processes and again later
as part of the building permit process.
17.The impact of development on the availability of adequate public facilities and services
is consistent with the levels of service adopted in the Collier County Growth
Management Plan and as defined and implemented through the Collier County
Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance, as amended.
The development will have to meet all applicable criteria set forth in the LDC regarding
Adequate Public Facilities. The project must also be consistent with all applicable goals and
objectives of the GMP regarding adequate public facilities. This petition has been reviewed
by county staff responsible for jurisdictional elements of the GMP as part of the rezoning
process, and staff has concluded that the developer has provided appropriate commitments
so that the impacts to the Level of Service (LOS) will be minimized.
18.Such other factors, standards, or criteria that the Board of County Commissioners
shall deem important in protecting public health, safety, and welfare.
To be determined by the Board during its advertised public hearing.
DEVIATION DISCUSSION:
The petitioner is seeking one deviation from the requirements of the LDC. The deviation is directly
extracted from PUD Exhibit E. The petitioner’s rationale and staff analysis/recommendation are
outlined below.
Proposed Deviation #1: (Parking Spaces)
“Deviation #1 seeks relief from LDC Section 4.05.04, Table 17, Parking Space requirements for
multifamily dwellings, which requires:
All units shall have 1 parking space per unit plus visitor parking computed at 0.5 per efficiency
unit, 0.75 per 1-bedroom unit, and 1 per 2-bedroom or larger unit. Office/administrative buildings
shall have parking provided at 50 percent of normal requirements. Where small-scale recreation
facilities are accessory to a single-family or multifamily project and intended only for the residents
of that project, exclusive of golf courses/clubhouses, the recreation facilities may be computed at
50 percent of normal requirements where the majority of the dwelling units are not within 300 feet
of the recreation facilities and at 25 percent of normal requirements where the majority of the
dwelling units are within 300 feet of the recreation facilities. However, any recreation facility shall
have a minimum of 2 spaces exclusive of parking spaces for dwelling units.
Instead, allow parking to be provided at a ratio of 1.6 parking spaces per unit, with no requirement
to provide additional parking for the recreation facilities.
Petitioner’s Justification: The developer has extensive experience in creating successful multi-
family dwelling units throughout the United States. Typically, they average 1.5 parking spaces per
unit across their portfolio. Four (4) project examples have been submitted with similar site
9.A.2.a

Revised: November 8, 2023
characteristics as this site (location, density, size, etc.). Based on the proposed unit breakdown for
this project, 40% of the units are proposed to be 1-bdrm. This is relatively high percentage of 1-
bdrm units which only require 1.75 space per LDC 4.05.03.
Further, the site has been designed in a manner that places all units in close proximity to the project
amenity area. The master plan identifies the area where the amenities for the project will be located,
and they will be located within a courtyard immediately adjacent to the building. No unit will be
farther than 250’+/- from the project’s amenity area. At this distance, there is no need for any
resident to walk to the parking lot and then drive a distance that may exceed the distance to walk
to the pool or outdoor courts.
Staff Analysis and Recommendation: Staff does not support the PUDZ petition; however, if the
Planning Commission recommends approval of this deviation, a finding that the requested deviation
is in compliance with LDC Section 10.02.13.A.3, the petitioner has demonstrated that “the element
may be waived without a detrimental effect on the health, safety, and welfare of the community,”
and LDC Section 10.02.13.B.5.h, the petitioner has demonstrated that the deviation is “justified as
meeting public purposes to a degree at least equivalent to literal application of such regulations.”
NEIGHBORHOOD INFORMATION MEETING (NIM):
The applicant conducted a NIM on May 24, 2023, at Collier County Headquarters Library, Sugden
Theater Meeting Room, located at 2385 Orange Blossom Drive, Naples, FL. The meeting
commenced at approximately 5:32 p.m. and ended at 5:39 p.m. Two public attendees were via
Zoom. Wayne Arnold, the agent, conducted the meeting with introductions of the consultant team
and staff and gave a PowerPoint. The presentation consisted of an overview of the proposed RPUD
rezoning application. Following the agent’s presentation, the meeting was open to attendees to make
comments and ask the consultant team questions regarding the proposed development. There was
an inquiry as to where the PowerPoint is available. Wayne responded it’s on the Grady Minor
website. One commitment was made within the PowerPoint presentation that illustrated an
enhanced 15-foot wide type “B” landscape buffer. This enhanced buffer was added to the master
plan in a subsequent submittal. A copy of the NIM Summary, sign-in sheet, and NIM
PowerPoint presentation are included in Attachment C.
ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL (EAC) REVIEW:
This project does not require an Environmental Advisory Council (EAC) review, as this project did
not meet the EAC scope of land development project reviews identified in Section 2-1193 of the
Collier County Codes of Laws and Ordinances.
COUNTY ATTORNEY OFFICE REVIEW:
The County Attorney’s Office reviewed this staff report on October 30, 2023.

Revised: November 8, 2023
RECOMMENDATION:
The companion GMPA is recommended for denial; therefore, Staff recommends denial of the
PUDZ petition as submitted. Staff cannot support the requested density at this location; staff does
not support including the usable open space standard in the GMP Subdistrict language and instead,
a zoning deviation should be requested, and staff does not support the proposed deviation to reduce
the usable open space from 60% to 40% in a dense urban rental apartment community.
However, IF the Collier County Planning Commission chooses to recommend approval of this
PUDZ petition, THEN, as an alternative, staff recommends the CCPC consider the following:
•A reduction in the project density to 16 DU/A based on the subject location and inability to
meet development standards and/or,
•An increase in the public benefit in the form of additional affordable housing for the
significant increase in density to a minimum of 30% based upon recent approvals and,
•Staff acknowledges that maintaining the 60% usable open space requirement may
necessitate a density reduction and/or a building height increase. Approving a reduction in
usable open space could be offset by the petition providing increased public benefit in the
form of additional affordable housing units at 34%. This would require the following
changes in the PUD document:
o Exhibit E, List of Deviations:
▪Regarding the GMPA, add a deviation to the PUD, reducing the open space from
60% to 40%.
o Exhibit F, Affordable Housing:
▪Increase the affordable housing requirement from 22.6% to 34%

LIST OF DEVELOPMENT COMMITMENTS
PURPOSE:
The purposed of this Section is to set forth the development commitments for the development of this
project.
GENERAL:
A. One entity (hereinafter the Managing Entity) shall be responsible for PUD monitoring until close-
out of the PUD, and this entity shall also be responsible for satisfying all PUD commitments until close-
out of the PUD. At the time of this PUD approval, the Managing Entity is 3333/3375 VBR LLC, 3838 Tamiami
Trail N, Suite 402, Naples, FL 34103. Should the Managing Entity desire to transfer the monitoring and
commitments to a successor entity, then it must provide a copy of a legally binding document that needs
to be approved for legal sufficiency by the County Attorney. After such approval, the Managing Entity will
be released of its obligations upon written approval of the transfer by County staff, and the successor
entity shall become the Managing Entity. As Owner and Developer sell off tracts, the Managing Entity
shall provide written notice to County that includes an acknowledgement of the commitments required
by the PUD by the new owner and the new owner’s agreement to comply with the Commitments through
the Managing Entity, but the Managing Entity shall not be relieved of its responsibility under this Section.
When the PUD is closed-out, then the Managing Entity is no longer responsible for the monitoring and
fulfillment of PUD commitments.
B. Issuance of a development permit by a county does not in any way create any rights on the part
of the applicant to obtain a permit from a state or federal agency and does not create any liability on the
part of the county for issuance of the permit if the applicant fails to obtain requisite approvals or fulfill
the obligations imposed by a state or federal agency or undertakes actions that result in a violation of
state or federal law.” (Section 125.022, FS)
C. All other applicable state or federal permits must be obtained before commencement of the
development.
TRANSPORTATION:
A. The maximum total daily trip generation shall not exceed 85 two-way PM peak hour net trips
based on the use codes in the ITE Manual on trip generation rates in effect at the time of application for
SDP/SDPA or subdivision plat approval.
B. In lieu of providing compensatory right-of-way for the required turn lane, the owner at the time
of SDP shall convey to County, at no cost to County and free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, a 5
foot by 25 foot easement adjacent to the turn lane for use as a future CAT bus stop shelter. The perimeter
landscape buffer will be located outside of this easement.
ENVIRONMENTAL:
A. No native preservation area is required as there is no native vegetative community on the
property. Twelve native trees exist on-site, and 15%, or 2 trees will be retained or replanted consistent
with LDC Section 3.05.07.A.2. The retained or replanted trees will be shown on the Site Development

Plan.
B. The required Type B buffer along the northern property boundary shall be enhanced to include
additional tree plantings consisting of Sabal Palms planted at a staggered heights ranging from 14’ to 22’
at time of planting, planted in clusters of 3 trees 10’ on center, with clusters spaced no greater than 50’
on center and Areca Palms (or similar) ranging from 8’ to 10’ at time of planting, planted at 50’ on center.
See Exhibit F1, Enhanced Buffer.
AFFORDABLE HOUSING:
A. Of the total units constructed, the project shall comply with the following: 11.3% of the units will
be rented to households whose incomes are up to and including 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI)
for Collier County and 11.3% of the units will be rented to households whose incomes are up to and
including 100% of the AMI for Collier County and the corresponding rent limits. At time of each SDP, no
less than 22.6% of the dwelling units will be identified as affordable and shown on the SDP with the
required AMI ranges and fractional numbers will be rounded up to the nearest whole unit. These units
will be committed for a period of 30 years from the date of issuance of certificate of occupancy of the first
unit. Income and rent limits may be adjusted annually based on combined income and rent limit table
published by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation or as otherwise provided by Collier County.
B. As part of the annual PUD monitoring report, the developer will include an annual report that
provides the progress and monitoring of occupancy of the income restricted units, including rent data for
rented units, in a format approved by Collier County Community and Human Services Division. Developer
agrees to annual on-site monitoring by the County.

Date: November 7, 2023
Subject: Future Land Use Element Consistency Review
PETITION NUMBER: PUDZ-PL20220001011
PETITION NAME: Mattson at Vanderbilt PUD Rezone
REQUEST: Rezone the subject property (+5.88 acres) from Rural Agricultural (A) to a Residential
Planned Unit Development (RPUD) to permit up to 150 multi-family rental dwelling units.
LOCATION: The subject site is located on the north side of Vanderbilt Beach Road, approximately
825 feet east of Livingston Road, in Section 31, Township 48 South, Range 26 East, Collier County,
Florida.
COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING COMMENTS: The existing Future Land Use Element (FLUE),
Future Land Use Map (FLUM) and Map Series of the Collier County Growth Management Plan (GMP)
designates the subject property as Urban, Mixed Use District, Urban Residential Subdistrict.
The Urban Residential Subdistrict provides for higher density residential uses, with the maximum
density determined by the Density Rating System; however, in no case shall the maximum density
exceed 16 dwelling units per acre in the Urban Residential Subdistrict.
Staff calculation of the maximum allowable density, based upon the existing FLUE designation and
applicable Density Rating System criteria, is 59 dwelling units, or 10 dwelling units per acre (DU/A)
for market rate DUs. This is derived by adding the eligible base density of 4 DU/A to the two eligible
density bonuses of Residential In-fill (3 DU/A) and TCMA - Transportation Concurrency Management
Areas (3 DU/A). If the project included affordable housing per LDC Section 2.06.00, then the project
could be eligible for a density bonus of up to 6 DU/A to achieve the m aximum 16 DU/A allowed by
the Density Rating System.
The rezoning proposal is for 150 multi-family rental units on 5.88 acres, resulting in a density of 25.5
DU/A (15.5 dwelling units above the maximum density of 10 DU/A that can be achieved through the
Density Rating System for market rate development). The proposed density cannot be achieved through
the Density Rating System and exceeds the maximum allowable density within the Urban Residential
Subdistrict. Therefore, the proposal is inconsistent with the FLUE. To achieve the proposed density of
25.5 DU/A a GMP Amendment (GMPA) is required.

Consistency Review Memo 11/7/2023

The GMPA petition, in addition to the increase in density, proposes a reduction in Open Space from
that required by Section 4.07.02.G.1 of the LDC which states “Within PUD Districts composed entirely
of residential dwelling units, at least 60 percent of the gross area shall be devoted to usable open space.”
The GMPA Subdistrict language proposes to reduce the open space from 60 percent to 40 percent.
Comprehensive Planning staff and Zoning Planning staff agree that the proposed open space reduction
for a residential project is appropriately requested through the zoning deviation process rather than
through the proposed GMP text since the open space is an LDC regulation.
Staff has several concerns with the proposed petition. The increase in density to 25.5 DU/A is not
consistent with the surrounding residential densities, and the reduction in open space is not supported
by staff. If the Planning Commission approves the GMPA and PUD petitions staff recommends the
provision of commensurate public benefit in the form of additional affordable housing units. The
provision of 30 percent affordable units, rather than the 22.6 percent standard generally utilized in
petitions should be considered for the increase in density to 25.5 DU/A. The commensurate public
benefit to offset the reduction in open space would increase the provision of affordable units to 34
percent. The increase to 30 percent affordable housing would result in 45 affordable units, 11 additional
affordable housing units over the number of units achieved by the 22.6 percent provision. The public
benefit of the 11 additional affordable units could support the increase in density. The increase to 34
percent affordable housing would result in 51 affordable units, 6 additional affordable housing units
over the number of units achieved by the provision of 30 percent. This could support the reduction in
useable open space that would benefit the residents of a dense urban rental project. Instead, a public
benefit to the County, in the form of additional affordable housing units, may be acceptable.
In reviewing for compliance with Policy 5.6 and Policies 7.1 - 7.4 (shown below) of the Future Land
Use Element (FLUE) staff provides the following analysis in [bracketed bold text.]
Policy 5.6: New developments shall be compatible with, and complementary to, the surrounding land
uses, as set forth in the Land Development Code (Ordinance 04-41, adopted June 22, 2004 and effective
October 18, 2004, as amended). [Comprehensive Planning staff leaves this determination to Zoning
staff as part of their review of the petition in its entirety. However, staff would note that in
reviewing the appropriateness of the requested uses/intensities on the subject site, the
compatibility analysis might include a review of both the subject proposal and surrounding or
nearby properties as to allowed use intensities and densities, development standards (building
heights, setbacks, landscape buffers, etc.), building mass, building location, traffic
generation/attraction, etc.]
Policy 7.1:
The County shall encourage developers and property owners to connect their properties to fronting
collector and arterial roads, except where no such connection can be made without violating
intersection spacing requirements of the Land Development Code. [The subject site will have one
access point on Vanderbilt Beach Road, a major collector road as identified in the Transportation
Element, as depicted on the RPUD Master Plan.]
Policy 7.2:
The County shall encourage internal accesses or loop roads in an effort to help reduce vehicle
congestion on nearby collector and arterial roads and minimize the need for traffic signals. [One access
point on Vanderbilt Beach Road is proposed. The project is served by an internal loop road.]

3
Policy 7.3:
All new and existing developments shall be encouraged to connect their local streets and their
interconnection points with adjoining neighborhoods or other developments regardless of land use type.
[The PUD Master Plan locates a “Potential Vehicular/Pedestrian Interconnection” at the east end
of the project that could provide interconnection to the adjacent property. To the west is a
developed project with buildings, water management area and preserve abutting the subject site;
therefore, interconnection is not feasible. To the north is a golf course; there are no streets with
which to connect. Sidewalks within the project will be required to connect with the on-street
sidewalk and bicycle lane system along Vanderbilt Beach Road.]
Policy 7.4:
The County shall encourage new developments to provide walkable communities with a blend of
densities, common open spaces, civic facilities, and a range of housing prices and types. [The proposed
development will provide up to 150 multi-family rental units, with a percentage of those units
proposed for affordable housing, thus providing a range of housing prices. The PUD Master Plan
locates a “Potential Vehicular/Pedestrian Interconnection” at the east end of the project that
could provide interconnection to the adjacent property, and project sidewalks will connect with
the on-street sidewalk and bicycle lane system along Vanderbilt Beach Road . Open space and
internal sidewalks must be provided as may be required by the LDC. Civic uses are not proposed;
however, the clubhouses and other common building areas can potentially be used for civic
purposes, e.g. neighborhood association meetings, NIMs, polling places, etc.]
CONCLUSION: The rezoning petition is not consistent with the GMP. A companion Small Scale
GMPA petition (PL20220001010) proposes to create a new Subdistrict within the Urban Mixed Use
District of the FLUE to allow the proposed density of 25.5 DU/A and to reduce the Open Space. Staff
is recommending denial of the petition due to inconsistent density with the surrounding residential
communities, and reduction in open space. If the Planning Commission recommends approval of the
petition, staff recommends that commensurate public benefit of 30 percent affordable housing be
provided for the density of 25.5 DU/A; staff recommends that the reduction in open space be removed
from the GMPA and more appropriately requested through the zoning deviation process in the PUD.
If the Planning Commission recommends to approve the reduction in the open space requirement, staff
recommends an increase in the provision of additional affordable housing, to 34 percent of the dwelling
units constructed in the project for added public benefit to offset the open space reduction. Approval
of this PUDZ petition is contingent upon the companion GMPA petition being approved and becoming
effective.

Pursuant to LDC subsections 10.02.13 B, 10.02.08 F and Chapter 3 G. of the Administrative Code,
staff’s analysis and recommendation to the Planning Commission, and the Planning Commission’s
recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners shall be based upon consideration of
the applicable criteria. Provide a narrative statement describing the rezone request with specific
reference to the criteria below. Include any backup materials and documentation in support of
the request.
The applicant is proposing to rezone the 5.88+/- acre property from A, Agriculture to a
Residential PUD to permit up to 150 multi-family rental dwelling units. The applicant has
committed in the PUD that 22.6% of the constructed dwelling units will be income restricted.
a. The suitability of the area for the type and pattern of development proposed in relation
to physical characteristics of the land, surrounding areas, traffic and access, drainage,
sewer, water, and other utilities.
The site is well-suited for development and is currently developed with a veterinary clinic and
pet resort, and an equine boarding/riding facility. The site has been altered in support of the
existing facilities and has existing access directly onto 6-lane Vanderbilt Beach Road. Water
and sewer services are available to the property. Drainage will be permitted through South
Florida Water Management District.
b. Adequacy of evidence of unified control and suitability of any proposed agreements,
contract, or other instruments, or for amendments in those proposed, particularly as they
may relate to arrangements or provisions to be made for the continuing operation and
maintenance of such areas and facilities that are not to be provided or maintained at public
expense. Findings and recommendations of this type shall be made only after consultation
with the county attorney.
The applicant is the contract purchaser of the RPUD. All other properties surrounding the site
are developed.
c. Conformity of the proposed PUD with the goals, objectives and policies of the Growth
Management Plan. (This is to include identifying what Sub-district, policy or other

Future Land Use Element
Policy 5.4 requires that all applications must be consistent with the Growth Management Plan
as determined by the Board of County Commissioners. A companion small-scale growth
management plan amendment has been filed which creates a new subdistrict providing for
development of the proposed 150 rental units. Upon approval of the Subdistrict, the project
may be deemed consistent with the Growth Management Plan.
Policies 5.5 and 5.7 discourage unacceptable levels of urban sprawl by utilizing urban areas for
development before redesignating new property for urban intensity. The proposed
development is located within the Urban Mixed Use District, Urban Residential Subdistrict. The
site represents infill redevelopment and does not result in sprawl.
Policy 5.6 requires that new projects will be compatible with and complementary to the
surrounding land uses. The proposed project will consist of 4-story rental apartments. The
property is located between two 3-story senior housing apartment facilities. The senior
housing projects were approved to provide for 130 group housing units for seniors within
Bradford Square PUD and 200 group housing units for seniors within the Vanderbilt Trust PUD.
The proposed 150-unit rental apartments with up to 22.6% of the constructed units having
income restrictions is of comparable use and density as the immediately adjacent property. To
the north is the Tiburon Golf Course and to the south across the 6-lane arterial Vanderbilt
Beach Road is TGM Bermuda Island apartment complex and the Village Walk residential
community.
Policy 5.8 encourages clustered development and the use of PUD techniques to conserve open
space and environmentally sensitive areas. The site has been largely cleared of native
vegetation and only scattered native trees exist on the site. The PUD contains a commitment
regarding the preservation or replacement of 15% of the native trees.
Objective 7, and implementing Policies 7.1-7.7, promote smart growth policies to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions and to adhere to the development character of the County. The
proposed project cannot be interconnected to the adjoining senior housing community to the
west due to the presence of water management facilities on that site. The Sandalwood Village
senior housing facility to the east was constructed with a potential interconnect to this
property; therefore, a potential interconnect to Sandalwood Village is shown on the PUD
master plan. The site will provide a sidewalk connection to the existing sidewalk located within
the Vanderbilt Beach Road ROW.

Conservation and Coastal Management Element
Policy 6.1.1 requires preservation of 15% of the existing native vegetation on sites ranging in
size from 5 acres to 20 acres. The property has been largely cleared in support of the existing
equine facility and pet hospital. No native vegetative communities exist on the property.
Policy 6.2.5 is directed at reducing impacts to wetlands. There are no wetlands on the subject
property.
Objective 7.1: Direct incompatible land uses away from listed animal species and their
habitats. The availability of suitable habitat for any vertebrate is quite limited. The parcel is
cleared and does not provide potential for any denning, habitation and /or foraging. The
parcel is also surrounded by development. The parcel was traversed and examined. Potential
species for such a small parcel would be fox squirrels and/or gopher tortoises. At the time of
inspection, no burrows and/or small animals were encountered. The project site does provide
some foraging for traversing birds. A Black Bear management plan may be required at the
time of SDP. Please also refer to the listed species management and indigenous preservation
plans prepared by Collier Environmental Consultants, Inc.
Housing Element
Objectives 1 and 2 promote the creation of affordable housing units in the County that address
the needs for various income levels. The proposed PUD requires that 22.6% of the rental units
constructed with meet income levels between 80% and 100% of the Area Median Income and
is consistent with the objectives of the Housing Element.
d. The internal and external compatibility of proposed uses, which conditions may include
restrictions on location of improvements, restrictions on design, and buffering and
screening requirements.
The project as proposed is compatible both internally and externally. The proposed infill
development of rental units is located between two rental communities targeted at seniors.
The use is comparable, and it will be compatible with these neighboring uses given the
proposed development standards and buffering provided within the PUD.
e. The adequacy of usable open space areas in existence and as proposed to serve the
development.
The rental community will provide common open space which will consist of recreational
amenity areas, buffers and water management areas.
f. The timing or sequence of development for the purpose of assuring the adequacy of
available improvements and facilities, both public and private.

Adequate infrastructure must be in place to support future development on the site. There are
no known infrastructure capacity issues that will impact this project. The residential project
will be developed in a single phase.
g. The ability of the subject property and of surrounding areas to accommodate expansion.
The RPUD is surrounded by zoned and developed land. Expansion of the PUD boundary is not
proposed or feasible.
h. Conformity with PUD regulations, or as to desirable modifications of such regulations in
the particular case, based on determination that such modifications of justified as
meeting public purposes to a degree at least equivalent to literal application of such

To the immediate east and west of the site are group housing for seniors rental communities.
To the south across Vanderbilt Beach Road is an existing rental community and a for sale
residential community.
3. The possible creation of an isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby
districts.
The PUD boundary is not proposed to be changed; therefore, no isolated district is created by
this zoning action.
4. Whether existing district boundaries are illogically drawn in relation to existing
conditions on the property proposed for change.
The PUD boundary represents a logical boundary.
5. Whether changed or changing conditions make the passage of the proposed
amendment necessary.
The existing uses are not consistent with the growth management plan in that the property is
located in the Urban area of Collier County and the existing agricultural related uses are not
consistent with the anticipated future residential development at this location.
6. Whether the proposed change will adversely influence living conditions in the
neighborhood.
The proposed rezone will not adversely influence living conditions in the neighborhood. The
proposed master plan and development standards will assure compatibility. The proposed
use is similar in use and intensity to the projects located immediately adjacent to the property.
7. Whether the proposed change will create or excessively increase traffic congestion
or create types of traffic deemed incompatible with surrounding land uses, because
of peak volumes or projected types of vehicular traffic, including activity during
construction phases of the development, or otherwise affect public safety.

The proposed 150-unit rental community will not create or excessively increase traffic
congestion. The TIS prepared for the PUD rezoning application concludes that the project will
not adversely impact the surrounding road network or cause any roadways to operate below
their adopted level of service.

have no impact on surrounding development.
9. Whether the proposed change will seriously reduce light and air to adjacent areas.
The proposed rezone will have no impact on light and air to adjacent areas.
10. Whether the proposed change will adversely affect property values in the adjacent
area.
The proposed rezone should have no impact on property values in the adjacent area. The
project will consist of both market rate and income restricted units which will be undiscernible.
11. Whether the proposed change will be a deterrent to the improvement or
development of adjacent property in accordance with existing regulations.
The proposed rezone should enhance surrounding properties and will not deter improvement
or development of nearby properties.
12. Whether the proposed change will constitute a grant of special privilege to an
individual owner as contrasted with the public welfare.
Any property owner may propose zoning changes subject to the requirements of the LDC. No
special privilege results from the PUD Amendment.
13. Whether there are substantial reasons why the property cannot be used in
accordance with existing zoning.
The proposed PUD provides for an increase in the number of dwelling units above that
authorized by the current zoning. The current zoning is A, Agriculture and does not permit the
proposed multi-family dwelling units. The rezoning is necessary to support the proposed use.
14. Whether the change suggested is out of scale with the needs of the neighborhood
or the county.
The scale of the project is in scale with the needs of the community.

Types of Reviews:
School Impact Analysis:
This review should be divided into two categories:
-School Capacity Review (land use and rezonings), and;
-Concurrency Determinations (site plans and subdivisions).
School Capacity Review is the review of a project in the land use and rezoning stage of development. It is a
review of the impact of the development on school capacity and is considered long range planning. This may
be a review resulting in mitigation being required. In situations where the applicant may be required to
mitigate, capacity may be reserved dependent on the type of mitigation.
Concurrency Determination is the review of residential site plans and subdivisions to determine whether
there is available capacity. When capacity is determined to be available a School Capacity Determination
Letter (SCADL) will be issued verifying available capacity to the applicant and the local government. If a
project exceeds the adopted level of service standards, the applicant is afforded the option of a negotiation
period that may or may not result in an executed/recorded mitigation agreement Mitigation at this stage is
expressed as a Proportionate Share Mitigation Agreement. For those residential developments that may have
an impact but are otherwise exempt from concurrency, an exemption letter will be prepared for the applicant
upon request. For those residential developments that are determined to not have an impact, a letter of no
impact will be prepared for the applicant upon request.
Exemption Letter:
An applicant may request an Exemption Letter as documentation for the local government. These are projects
that would be exempt from school concurrency review or projects that do not impact the public schools.
Exemptions from school concurrency are limited to existing single family or mobile home lots of record;
amendments to previously approved site plans or plats that do not increase the number of dwelling units or
change the dwelling unit type; age restricted communities with no permanent residents under the age of 18; or
residential site plans or plats or amendments to site plans or plats that generate less than one student; or are
authorized as a Development of Regional Impact (Chapter 380, F.S.) as of July 1, 2005.
Concurrency Determination Amendment:
An applicant may request an amendment to a previously issued School Concurrency Determination or to an
application being processed. This review may require additional staff time beyond the initial concurrency
determination review and results in a modified determination being issued. An amendment could result in a
negotiation period and/or a mitigation agreement being issued or a previously approved determination being
modified and reissued.

The 5.88-acre subdistrict, as depicted on the Mattson at Vanderbilt Residential Subdistrict map, is located
approximately 1,100 feet east of Livingston Road on the north side of Vanderbilt Beach Road. The intent
of this subdistrict is to allow for a maximum of 150 multi-family dwelling units to promote affordable and
workforce housing in an urban area with transit, employment centers, and public infrastructure. The
development of this subdistrict will be governed by the following criteria:
a. Development shall be in the form of a PUD.
b. The dwelling units are limited to rental units.
c. The maximum number of dwelling units permitted within the subdistrict is 150 dwelling units.
d. Usable open space shall be 40% of the overall site area.
e. Affordable Housing Commitment:
1. Of the total units constructed the project shall comply with the following: 11.3% of the units will
be rented to households whose incomes are up to and including 80% of the Area Median Income
(AMI) for Collier County and 11.3% of the units will be rented to households whose incomes are
up to and including 100% of the AMI for Collier County and the corresponding rent limits. At time
of each SDP, no less than 22.6% of the dwelling units will be identified as affordable and shown
on the SDP with the AMI ranges and fractional numbers will be rounded up to the nearest whole
unit. These units will be committed for a period of 30 years from the date of issuance of certificate
of occupancy of the first unit. Income and rent limits may be adjusted annually based on combined
income and rent limit table published by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation or as otherwise
provided by Collier County.
2. As part of the annual PUD monitoring report, the developer will include an annual report that
provides the progress and monitoring of occupancy of the income restricted units, including rent
data for rented units, in a format approved by Collier County Community and Human Services
Division. Developer agrees to annual on-site monitoring by the County.

1. Deviation #1 requests relief from LDC Section 4.05.04, Table 17, Parking Space
requirements for multi-family dwellings, which requires:
All units shall have 1 per unit plus visitor parking computed at 0.5 per efficiency unit, 0.75
per 1-bedroom unit, and 1 per 2-bedroom or larger unit. Office/administrative buildings
shall have parking provided at 50 percent of normal requirements. Where small-scale
recreation facilities are accessory to a single-family or multifamily project and intended
only for the residents of that project, exclusive of golf courses/clubhouses, the recreation
facilities may be computed at 50 percent of normal requirements where the majority of
the dwelling units are not within 300 feet of the recreation facilities and at 25 percent of
normal requirements where the majority of the dwelling units are within 300 feet of the
recreation facilities.
To instead allow parking to be provided at a ratio of 1.6 parking spaces per unit, with no
requirement to provide additional parking for the recreation facilities.
Justification:
The developer has extensive experience in creating successful multi-family dwelling units
throughout the United States. Typically, they average 1.5 parking spaces per unit across
their portfolio. Four (4) project examples have been submitted with similar site
characteristics as this site (location, density, size, etc.). Based on the proposed unit
breakdown for this project, 40% of the units are proposed to be 1-bdrm. This is relatively
high percentage of 1-bdrm units which only require 1.75 space per LDC 4.05.03.
Further, the site has been designed in a manner that places all units in close proximity to
the project amenity area. The master plan identifies the area where the amenities for the
project will be located, and they will be located within a courtyard immediately adjacent to
the building. No unit will be farther than 250’+/- from the project’s amenity area. At this
distance there is no need for any resident to walk to the parking lot and then drive a
distance that may exceed the distance to walk to the pool or outdoor courts.

Sharon Umpenhour: 00:01 Okay, we're recording.
Wayne Arnold: 00:01 All right.
Wayne Arnold: 00:03 Well good evening everybody. I'm Wayne Arnold with
GradyMinor & Associates and we're here tonight to talk about
two applications that are pending with Collier County
Government. We don't have any audience attendees other than
staff and the development team, but we do have a couple of
folks on Zoom. So I hope you all can hear us fine and can see the
video. I'll make some project introductions, but we're here for a
project that is located just east of the intersection of Livingston
Road and on the north side of Vanderbilt Beach Road. It's about
5.8 acres and it's currently the home of a pet resort and a
defunct equestrian facility. And we're proposing a conference of
plan amendment and a PD rezoning application in order to
develop up to 150 multifamily rental dwelling units on the
property of which we have proposed 22.6% of those to be
affordable units, income restricted.
01:04 So introduce the team. We have Andy Bollig who's here as a
development partner with Roers Acquisitions. Rich Yovanovich
is our land use counsel. I'm Wayne Arnold. Mike Delate, our civil
engineer with GradyMinor & Associates. Jim Bank is our traffic
engineer and we have a biologist who's not in attendance, but
Marco Espinar did the environmental assessment for the site.
01:27 The project is highlighted here on the screen in yellow and you
can see the existing structures. Those are all set to be raised
assuming this project is approved. And again, the property's
about 5.8 acres and located just east of Livingston Road. To our
west is a project called Bradford Square, which is a age
restricted senior housing project and to the east of us, is a
project called Sandalwood Village, which also is an age
restricted independent living facility. And to our north is the
Tiburon Golf Club.
02:04 This is a project information sheet that lets you know that we
are modifying the future land use map. We're creating a new
subdistrict to establish the property to be allowed to have 150
multi-family rental units on that. And again, we're proposing
that 22.6% of those would be income restricted homes.

Sharon Umpenhour: 02:27 Just a correction on that Future land use designation, the
proposed, it's incorrect.
Wayne Arnold: 02:33 Okay. We are proposing the new subdistrict and it'll be the
Matson Vanderbilt Beach Road, subdistrict. We have to create a
series of maps for the county as part of our small scale plan
amendment. And this is a map that identifies the location for
the mixed use subdistrict that will be for the subject property.
Again, this is another series of maps with some of our sub-
district language, and here it highlights, in paragraph C, the total
units that are constructed, 22.6% of those would be income
restricted, half of that number at the 80% or less and the others
up to 100%.
03:18 Here's a conceptual master plan that we developed for the
zoning application that identifies a central access point on
Vanderbilt Beach Road, and then it's an 'H" shaped building with
an interior courtyard amenity area with parking surrounding the
building, some of which will probably have carport covered
structures on it. This is a color version, just adds a little more
clarity to where the green space, buffers, water management
and the amenity areas will be located.
03:51 We propose to enhance the buffer adjacent to the Tiburon Golf
Club with a series of clustered sable palm trees. Similar to what
was prepared for the Sable, or excuse me, the Sandalwood
Village project to our east. We have to propose development
standards for the project highlighted here. Maximum building
height. We establish a zone height of 50 feet and we're
proposing an actual height that the maximum building height
for any part of the structure would be 60 feet.
04:22 These are some images from other Roers projects. The building
that's shown there is not a four-story building, but we're
proposing in the 50-foot zone height to have a four-story
apartment building. But you can see the quality of the finish
that Roers intends to provide here with some of their outdoor
amenity areas and just the architectural details.
04:45 So in the process we're required to hold a neighborhood
informational meeting, which we're conducting tonight. Our
next step will be to go to the Collier County Planning
Commission, which we do not have a hearing date established
yet. Separate mail notices will be provided to surrounding
property owners once that date is established. And then after
the planning commission, they will make a recommendation to

the Board of County Commissioners. And that meeting has not
yet been set, but those are our next steps and the County
Commission will hold one final hearing and make a decision to
approve, approve with conditions, or deny the application.
05:19 This is an informational sheet. Sharon Umpenhour, who's in
charge of our audio system here tonight, is also our contact in
our office for any of the information. So we upload on our
website this presentation as well as other project information
that is submitted to Collier County for the project and we
continue to update it as we provide any updates to Collier
County staff. So we will continue on through what's known as
our Sufficiency Process until we get to our first planning
commission hearing. And again, signs will be posted on the site
when that hearing's established as well as mail notice is going
out to surround the property members.
05:56 So that's our quick presentation. I'm happy to take any
questions you may have from those attendees on Zoom. If you'd
unmute if you have a question, that would be great.
Robert Campbell: 06:11 The only question I have... Hello. My name's Robert Campbell.
I'm with TGM Communities. We actually own TG and Bermuda
Island directly across the Vanderbilt Road from the proposed
site. I just had a question. Did you say that the document that
you're sharing now will be uploaded onto the gradyminor.com
planning website?
Sharon Umpenhour: 06:35 It's already there.
Wayne Arnold: 06:35 Yes, sir. It's there now. It'll be shared-
Robert Campbell: 06:36 Oh, this version is already there, correct?
Wayne Arnold: 06:37 It is. We uploaded that late this afternoon.
Robert Campbell: 06:39 Okay. Much appreciated. It looks exciting.
Wayne Arnold: 06:46 Thank you. Any other comments or questions? I know there's
another attendee on the Zoom.
Robert Campbell: 06:54 He's actually a colleague of mine.
Wayne Arnold: 06:55 Oh, okay. Great.
Sharon Umpenhour: 06:56 Mr. Ruiz, is that your colleague?

we're glad to get information to you. We appreciate you.
Robert Campbell: 07:10 No, I think everything looks great. I appreciate the presentation.
Looking forward to seeing how it all plays out.
Wayne Arnold: 07:17 Okay, well great. Thank you so much. Well, with that, I guess
we'll adjourn. Thanks for participating and look forward to
hearing from you. Thanks.
