Naples Pier – 25 12th Ave South, Naples, Florida
This annual TDC funded project includes maintenance, labor, material, supplies
and equipment for the upkeep and safety of the pier. The Naples Pier is a public
access beach facility and a tourist attraction and destination. The Naples Pier, a
historically significant structure originally constructed in 1887, serves as a public
access beach facility, as a major tourist attraction and vacation destination. The
Naples Pier captures non-county and local visitors as well as tourist populations
from throughout the region and world.
This year this grant application will be extremely important as we rebuild the
iconic Naples Pier. We have begun the design of the pier with the goal of making
it stronger and more user-friendly. We anticipate this project to be in the tens of
millions, perhaps higher. This grant funding will help to offset a portion of the
costs as we construct the new and improved Naples Pier. Moving forward these
funds will also help with the daily maintenance and upkeep of the restrooms,
shelters, picnic tables, signage, and over structure. The Operating Cost for the
Naples Pier is $107,493 for FY24. The estimated rebuild cost is estimated at $20
million. In addition to asking for an increase in the cost of ongoing repair and
maintenance, we respectfully request consideration for the annual amount to be
increased from $200,000 to $400,000 annually and allow the City to seek 5 years
of funding, which is $2.0 million, from which to draw during construction. The
City of Naples would not request funding for the Naples Pier from FY-2025 to

the rebuilding. We would like to amend the previous application for $200,000 by
adding the additional $2mil to bring the total request to $2,200,000.
