Agenda 01/14/2025 Item # 9F (Ordinance rezoning real property from an Intermediate Commercial (C-3) Zoning District to a General Commercial (C-4) Zoning District)1/14/2025 Item # 9.F ID# 2024-1989 Executive Summary This item requires ex-parte disclosure to be provided by the Commission members. Should a hearing be held on this item, all participants are required to be sworn in. Recommendation to approve an Ordinance rezoning real property from an Intermediate Commercial (C-3) Zoning District to a General Commercial (C-4) Zoning District limited to 11,000 square feet of gross floor area of commercial uses, of which 5,000 square feet of gross floor area may be carwash, with conditions; providing partial repeal of Ordinance No. 00-81 and Resolution No. 12-253. The subject property is located on the south side of Tamiami Trail East, 350 feet east of the intersection of Tamiami Trail and Barefoot Williams Road, in Section 33, Township 50 South, Range 26 East, consisting of 1.92+/- acres, and by providing an effective date. (Companion to item 9E) OBJECTIVE: To have the Board of County Commissioners (“Board”) review staff’s findings and recommendations along with the recommendations of the Collier County Planning Commission (CCPC) regarding the above-referenced petition, render a decision regarding this rezoning petition, and ensure the project is in harmony with all the applicable codes and regulations in order to ensure that the community's interests are maintained. CONSIDERATIONS: The subject property is located on the south side of Tamiami Trail East, approximately 350 feet east of the intersection of Tamiami Trail and Barefoot Williams Road, in Section 33, Township 50 South, Range 26, East, Collier County, Florida, consisting of 1.92+/- acres. The applicant is requesting to rezone the subject property from the Commercial Intermediate (C-3) Zoning District to the General Commercial (C-4) Zoning District. The request to rezone to the C-4 Zoning District Use is limited to a single use: a car wash facility. The rezone will also allow the full range of C-3 uses (as current C-3 zoning allows). A companion SSGMPA has also been submitted to permit the desired uses and to establish the maximum allowed intensity (square feet). This rezone request includes conditions of approval (Exhibit A), which impose a number of restrictions and design requirements related to the car wash and to eating and drinking establishments with drive-through facilities in an attempt to address the staff recommended (but as yet not adopted) US 41 East Zoning Overlay District Land Development Code Amendments (LDCA). COLLIER COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION (CCPC) RECOMMENDATION: The CCPC heard petition RZ-PL20220005137 on November 7, 2024, and by a vote of 7 to 0 recommended to forward this petition to the Board with a recommendation of approval. The CCPC approval was unanimous. On January 7, 2025, a letter of objection was received. As such, this petition will be placed on Advertised Public Hearings. FISCAL IMPACT: Collier County collects impact fees prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy to help offset the impacts of each new development on public facilities. These impact fees are used to fund projects identified in the Capital Improvement Element (CIE) of the Growth Management Plan (GMP) as needed to maintain the adopted Level of Service (LOS) for public facilities. Other fees collected prior to the issuance of a building permit include building permit review fees. Please note that impact fees and taxes collected were not included in the criteria used by staff and the Planning Commission to analyze this petition. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Comprehensive Planning staff has reviewed the proposed rezoning petition and has found it not consistent with the Future Land Use Element (FLUE) of the Growth Management Plan (GMP). See GMP amendment Staff Report for detailed analysis. This rezoning may only be deemed consistent with the FLUE if the companion GMPA (PL20220005822) is approved and goes into effect, and the uses and intensities in this rezoning align with those in the GMPA. It should be noted that the applicant could have utilized the Office and In-fill Commercial Subdistrict to gain consistency with the Growth Management Plan, but due to the length of time (over two years), the petition has been under review, opted to move forward with the proposed GMP-Amendment to gain GMP consistency, rather than submit a new application and the review process. Transportation Element: In evaluating this project, staff reviewed the applicant’s June 16, 2023, Traffic Impact Statement for consistency with Policy 5.1 of the Transportation Element of the Growth Management Plan (GMP) using the 2022 and 2023 Annual Update and Inventory Reports (AUIR). Policy 5.1 of the Transportation Element of the GMP states; Page 1264 of 6405 1/14/2025 Item # 9.F ID# 2024-1989 “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: 1. 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; 2. 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 3. 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 findings: According to the Traffic Impact Statement (TIS) provided with this petition, the proposed development will generate a projected total of +/- 127 PM peak hour, as well as 2-way trips on the adjacent roadway segments of Tamiami Trail East (US 41). The trips generated by this development will occur on the following adjacent roadway link: Link/Roadway Link Current Peak Hour Peak Direction Volume/Peak Direction Projected P.M. Peak Hour/Peak Direction Project Trips (1) 2022 AUIR LOS/ Remaining Capacity 2023 AUIR LOS/Remaining Capacity 93.0/Tamiami Trail East (US-41) Rattlesnake Hammock Rd to Triangle Blvd 3,000/East 29/East D/280 (2) D/307 (2) (1) Source for P.M. Peak Hour/Peak Direction Project Traffic is from the June 16, 2023, Traffic Impact Statement provided by the petitioner. (2) Expected Deficiency due to Trip Bank not caused by this proposed development (see State Statute 163.3180). Additionally, this development is located in the recently expanded Traffic Congestion Exception Area (TCEA). Provisions of Florida Statute 163.3180: • Must allow an applicant to enter into a binding agreement to pay or construct their proportionate fair share. • Facilities determined to be deficient with existing, committed, and vested trips plus projected background traffic from any source other than the development shall be removed from the proportionate share calculation • The improvement necessary to correct this type of deficiency is the funding responsibility of the maintaining entity. • Applicant must receive a credit for the anticipated road impact fees. • The expected and existing deficiencies are not caused by this proposed development. Based on the TIS, the 2022 and 2023 AUIR, State Statute 163.3180, and the TCEA provisions of the GMP, the subject rezone can be found consistent with Policy 5.1 of the Transportation Element of the Growth Management Plan. The Page 1265 of 6405 1/14/2025 Item # 9.F ID# 2024-1989 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 staff evaluated the petition. The property is 1.92 acres; the project is consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies of the CCME. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: Petitioner is requesting a rezone from the Intermediate Commercial (C-3) Zoning District to the General Commercial (C-4) Zoning District, with conditions. The attached staff report and the required recommendations of the Planning Commission are advisory only and are not binding on you. All testimony given must be under oath. The Petitioner has the burden to prove that the proposed rezone is consistent with all the criteria set forth below, and you may question Petitioner or staff to satisfy yourself that the necessary criteria have been satisfied. Should you consider denying the rezone, to assure that your decision is not later found to be arbitrary, discriminatory, or unreasonable, the denial must be based upon competent, substantial evidence that the proposal does not meet one or more of the listed criteria below. Criteria for Straight Rezones 1. Will the proposed change be consistent with the goals, objectives, policies and future land use map and the elements of the Growth Management Plan? 2. Will the proposed rezone be appropriate considering the existing land use pattern? 3. Would the proposed rezone result in the possible creation of an isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts? 4. Are the existing district boundaries illogically drawn in relation to existing conditions on the property proposed for change? 5. Do changed or changing conditions make the passage of the proposed amendment necessary? 6. Will the proposed change adversely influence living conditions in the neighborhood? 7. Will the proposed change 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? 8. Will the proposed change create a drainage problem? 9. Will the proposed change seriously reduce light and air to adjacent areas? 10. Will the proposed change adversely affect property values in the adjacent area? 11. Will the proposed change be a deterrent to the improvement or development of adjacent property in accordance with existing regulations? 12. Will the proposed change constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual owner as contrasted with the public welfare? 13. Are there substantial reasons why the property cannot be used in accordance with existing zoning? 14. Is the change suggested out of scale with the needs of the neighborhood or the County? 15. Consider: Whether it is impossible to find other adequate sites in the County for the proposed use in districts already permitting such use. 16. Consider: The physical characteristics of the property and the degree of site alteration that would be required to make the property usable for any of the range of potential uses under the proposed zoning classification. 17. What is the impact of development on the availability of adequate public facilities and services 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 [Code ch.106, art.II], as amended? 18. Are there other factors, standards, or criteria relating to this rezone request that the Board of County Commissioners deem important in protecting public health, safety, and welfare? This item has been approved as to form and legality, and it requires an affirmative vote of four for Board approval. Should this item be denied, Florida Statutes section 125.022(3) requires the County to provide written notice to the applicant citing applicable portions of an ordinance, rule, statute, or other legal authority for the denial.

Ellen Summers, AICP, Senior Planner Hole Montes, Inc., a Bowman Company Cheffy Passidomo, P.A. 821 Fifth Avenue South 950 Encore Way Naples, FL 34102 Naples, FL 34110 REQUESTED ACTION: The applicant is requesting that the Collier County Planning Commission (CCPC) consider an application to amend Ordinance Number 2004-41, as amended, the Collier County Land Development Code, which established the comprehensive zoning regulations for the unincorporated area of Collier County, Florida, by amending the appropriate zoning atlas map or maps by changing the zoning classification of the herein described real property from an Intermediate Commercial (C- 3) Zoning District to a General Commercial (C-4) Zoning District limited to 11,000 square feet of gross floor area of commercial uses of which 5,000 square feet of gross floor area may be carwash, with conditions; providing partial repeal of Ordinance No. 00-81 and Resolution No. 12-253. Page 1268 of 6405 RZ-PL20220005137; 11760 Tamiami Trail East Revised: October 14, 2024 Page 2 of 15 GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION: The subject property is located on the south side of Tamiami Trail East, approximately 350 feet east of the intersection of Tamiami Trail and Barefoot Williams Road, in Section 33, Township 50 South, Range 26, East, Collier County, Florida, consisting of 1.92+/- acres. (see location map). Page 1269 of 6405 RZ-PL20220005137; 11760 Tamiami Trail East Revised: October 14, 2024 Page 3 of 15 PURPOSE/DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT: This is a request to rezone the subject property from the Commercial Intermediate (C-3) Zoning District to the General Commercial (C-4) Zoning District. The request to rezone to the C-4 Zoning District Use is limited to a single use: a car wash facility. The rezone will also allow the full range of C-3 uses (as current C-3 zoning allows). A companion SSGMPA has also been submitted to permit the desired uses and to establish the maximum allowed intensity (square feet). This rezone request includes conditions of approval (Exhibit A), which impose a number of restrictions and design requirements related to the car wash and to eating and drinking establishments with drive-through facilities in an attempt to address the staff recommended (but as of yet not adopted) US 41 East Zoning Overlay District LDC amendments. The subject site was rezoned in 2000 from a Residential Tourist (RT) Zoning District to a Commercial Intermediate (C-3) Zoning District by Ordinance No. 2000-81 with a Conceptual Site Plan. Resolution 12-253 was approved on December 11, 2012, allowing four buildings on four different parcels of up to 15,000 s.f. each of gross floor area in the principal structures for food stores, food services, personal services, and video rentals, and retail uses; however, this resolution has expired. Currently, the western portion of this site plan has been developed into a RaceTrac gas station with a convenience store. The eastern portion of this subject property is vacant. The Future Land Use Map Designation is Urban Coastal Fringe Subdistrict. This location is within the boundaries of the East Naples Community Development Plan (ENCDP) and the proposed US 41 East Zoning Overlay (US 41 EZO).

See GMP amendment Staff Report for detailed analysis. This rezoning may only be deemed consistent with the FLUE if the companion GMPA (PL20220005822) is approved and goes into effect and the uses and intensities in this rezoning align with those in the GMPA. Transportation Element: In evaluating this project, staff reviewed the applicant’s June 16, 2023, Traffic Impact Statement for consistency with Policy 5.1 of the Transportation Element of the Growth Management Plan (GMP) using the 2022 and 2023 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 +/- 127 PM peak hour 2-way trips on the adjacent roadway segments of Tamiami Trail East (US-41). The trips generated by this development will occur on the following adjacent roadway link: Page 1273 of 6405 RZ-PL20220005137; 11760 Tamiami Trail East Revised: October 14, 2024 Page 7 of 15 Link/Roadway Link Current Peak Hour Peak Direction Volume/Peak Direction Projected P.M.

Peak Hour/Peak Direction Project Traffic is from the June 16, 2023 Traffic Impact Statement provided by the petitioner. •(2) Expected Deficiency due to Trip Bank not caused by this proposed development (see State Statute 163.3180). Additionally, this development is located in the recently expanded Traffic Congestion Exception Area (TCEA). Provisions of Florida Statute 163.3180 ▪Must allow an applicant to enter into a binding agreement to pay or construct their proportionate fair share. ▪Facilities determined to be deficient with existing, committed, and vested trips plus projected background traffic from any source other than the development shall be removed from the proportionate share calculation. ▪The improvement necessary to correct this type of deficiency is the funding responsibility of the maintaining entity. ▪Applicant must receive a credit for the anticipated road impact fees. ▪The expected and existing deficiencies are not caused by this proposed development. Based on the TIS, the 2022 and 2023 AUIR, State Statute 163.3180, and the TCEA provisions of the GMP, the subject rezone 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 staff evaluated the petition. The property is 1.92 acres, and the project is consistent with the CCME's goals, objectives, and policies. GMP Conclusion: The proposed PUD is inconsistent with the GMP unless the Board approves the companion GMPA first or concurrent with the PUD and the uses and intensities align. STAFF ANALYSIS: 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 10.02.08.F, Nature of Requirements of Planning Commission Report (referred to as “Rezone Findings”), which establish the legal bases to support the CCPC’s recommendation. The CCPC uses these same criteria as the basis for their recommendation to the BCC, who in turn use the criteria to Page 1274 of 6405 RZ-PL20220005137; 11760 Tamiami Trail East Revised: October 14, 2024 Page 8 of 15 support their action on the rezoning request. This evaluation is completed as part of the Zoning and Land Development Review provided below. Drainage: The proposed zoning amendment request is not anticipated to create drainage problems in the area. Stormwater best management practices, treatment, and storage will be addressed through the environmental resource permitting process with the South Florida Water Management District. County staff will also evaluate the project’s stormwater management system, calculations, and design criteria at the time of site development plan (SDP) and/or platting (PPL). Environmental Review: Environmental Planning staff has reviewed this petition. The property has been historically maintained and cleared of native vegetation. Therefore, the Master Plan does not show a preserve since no minimum preservation is required. No listed animal species were observed on the property. 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 11760 Tamiami Trail East Rezone request. Landscape Review: The North and South buffers proposed by the applicant exceed current code minimum standards. The LDC required buffer along the North boundary is a 15’ Type D. Type D buffers require trees spaced 30’ on center with a double row hedge 2’ high at the time of installation. The applicant is proposing a 15’ Type B buffer along the North boundary. Trees in Type B buffers are 25’ on center, and the hedge is 5’ high at the time of installation. The code minimum required buffer along the South is a 15’ Type B. The applicant is proposing to increase this width by 5’. The remaining buffers are consistent with code minimum standards. Utility Review: The project lies within the regional potable water service area and the South 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, and 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. Zoning Review: The land use pattern in the local area contains a mix of mobile homes, travel trailers, commercial uses, and a park. The current zoning of C-3 is consistent with the established zoning pattern for the area. The proposed rezoning to C-4 to allow for a car wash self-storage facility is inconsistent with the zoning to the south. The car wash may be deemed consistent with the property to the west as this is a RaceTrac gas station with a convenience store. However, this property is located in the pending US41 East Corridor Zoning Overlay, and the East Naples Community Development Plan (ENCDP) does not allow the car wash use as this was deemed an undesirable use. Staff is concerned about the high proportion of car washes within a one-mile radius of the subject property. During community outreach meeting of the ENCDP, the community endorsed a vision for the area to promote less intensive commercial uses and residential. However, the proposed draft US 41 East zoning overlay provides criteria for the development of car washes Page 1275 of 6405 RZ-PL20220005137; 11760 Tamiami Trail East Revised: October 14, 2024 Page 9 of 15 and other identified undesirable uses in the ENCDP, including locational separation of a quarter mile from a like use, enhanced buffering, and increased setbacks. The conditions of approval included as Exhibit A in the Draft Ordinance (Attachment A) provide that a sound attenuation wall that shall be provided along the southern property line separating the car wash facility from the Hitching Post mobile home park with a minimum height of 2 feet higher than the entrance to the car wash tunnel, but not to exceed 12 feet in height and provide 25 feet from the rear property line along the entire width of the car wash facility, including the drive aisles that serve the car wash. The car wash shall have a minimum side yard setback of 10 feet when adjacent to commercially zoned property. The carwash building shall not exceed 5,000 s.f. The vacuuming facilities may be located outside the building but may not be in any required yard area and shall not be located forward of the primary façade of the car washing facility. Vehicular stacking lanes and drive through lanes shall not be located closer to the US 41 right-of-way than the principal building. Furthermore, the petition also proposes an eating establishment to the east of the car wash with a maximum of 6,000 square feet of gross floor area in the principal structure. Vehicular stacking lanes and drive through lanes shall not be located closer to the US 41 right-of- way than the principal building. The building height for both the car wash and eating establishment will be 35 feet zoned and 42 feet actual. Parking lots, vehicular use areas, and service functions areas shall be located to the sides or rear of buildings, no closer to US 41 than the principal building except that a maximum of one double loaded drive aisle of parking is permitted in the front yard. All these conditions are consistent with the proposed draft US 41 East zoning overlay. The subject site is currently zoned C-3 and is located within the Urban Coastal Fringe Subdistrict of the Future Land Use Element of Collier County. The site was cleared prior to 2014, when the property was under different ownership, including an access easement benefitting the adjacent RaceTrac gas station facility to the west, and is otherwise undeveloped. The property is also subject to a companion SSGMPA application. The proposed rezone seeks to change the zoning designation of the subject property from the C-3 zoning district to the C-4 zoning district to permit a car wash facility to be developed on a portion of the site and to permit the full range of C-3 uses on the remaining portion of the site. To the west of the subject property is an existing RaceTrac gas station facility with an existing access driveway across the subject site, connecting the two properties. The RaceTrac property is located directly at the corner of Barefoot Williams Road and Tamiami Trail E. and provides direct access to the traffic light at that intersection. Adjacent to the east of the subject site is an existing office facility that Home Depot has recently purchased. This adjacent lot to the east is one of multiple consecutive lots assembled by Home Depot, which was approved via Ordinance 2024-08 on March 26, 2024. As a result of the Home Depot – SE Naples CPUD approval, the subject project became eligible for the FLUE text-based Office and Infill Commercial (OIC) Subdistrict provision. The OIC Subdistrict would allow the subject property to rezone from its current Commercial Intermediate District (C-3) to the highest intensity commercial zoning district of the abutting site (CPUD). The Home Depot Commercial Subdistrict allows uses consistent with the Heavy Commercial District (C-5) and the C-3 zoning district. The proposed car wash use is an allowed use within the General Commercial District (C-4) of the LDC. Accordingly, the subject site would be eligible to develop with C-3, C-4, and C-5 commercial uses without the need for a GMP amendment. Moreover, the site can be potentially rezoned to C-5 (utilizing the Office and Page 1276 of 6405 RZ-PL20220005137; 11760 Tamiami Trail East Revised: October 14, 2024 Page 10 of 15 Infill Commercial Subdistrict provision of the FLUE) to allow more intensive land uses than the proposed limited car wash use allowed in the C-4 zoning district. 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 proposed change in relation to the following when applicable” (Staff’s responses to these criteria are provided in non-bold font): 1. Whether the proposed change will be consistent with the goals, objectives, & policies of the Future Land Use Map and the elements of the Growth Management Plan. As a result of the Home Depot – SE Naples CPUD approval, the subject project became eligible for the FLUE text-based Office and Infill Commercial (OIC) Subdistrict provision. The OIC Subdistrict would allow the subject property to rezone from its current Commercial Intermediate District (C-3) to the highest intensity commercial zoning district of the abutting site (CPUD). The Home Depot Commercial Subdistrict allows uses consistent with the Heavy Commercial District (C-5) and the C-3 zoning district. The proposed car wash use is an allowed use within the General Commercial District (C-4) of the LDC. Accordingly, the subject site would be eligible to develop with C-3, C-4, and C-5 commercial uses without the need for a GMP amendment. 2. The existing land use pattern. The proposed rezone will not affect the existing land use pattern. The subject property is located in an urbanized portion of the county near the intersection of Barefoot Williams Rd and U.S. 41/East Tamiami Trail. The existing land use patterns within this area include CPUD, C-3, P, and RT uses that are composed of a mixture of mobile homes, travel trailers, commercial uses, and recreational uses. Immediately east of the subject site is zoned CPUD, which is approved for 140,000 s.f. of commercial use for a Home Depot store. 3. The possible creation of an isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts. The rezoning will not create an isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts. The adjacent property to the east is zoned CPUD and allows for 140,000 s.f. of commercial uses and the property to the west is zoned C-4 and is developed with a gas station with convenience store. 4. Whether existing district boundaries are illogically drawn in relation to existing conditions on the property proposed for change. The existing district boundaries coincide with lot lines. 5. Whether changed or changing conditions make the passage of the proposed rezoning necessary. Page 1277 of 6405 RZ-PL20220005137; 11760 Tamiami Trail East Revised: October 14, 2024 Page 11 of 15 The proposed rezoning from C-3 to C-4 is not specifically necessary. However, the petitioner believes it is necessary to accommodate a carwash and a wider range of C-3 uses. 6. Whether the proposed change will adversely influence living conditions in the neighborhood. Through the application of conditions of approval, the change resulting from the development of land as proposed in this rezoning request may be ameliorated to the extent the neighborhood is not adversely impacted. The conditions of approval included as Exhibit A in the Draft Ordinance (Attachment A) provide a sound attenuation wall that shall be provided along the southern property line separating the car wash facility from the Hitching Post mobile home park with a minimum height of 2 feet higher than the entrance to the car wash tunnel, but not to exceed 12 feet in height and provide 25 feet from the rear property line along the entire width of the car wash facility, including the drive aisles that serve the car wash. The car wash shall have a minimum side yard setback of 10 feet when adjacent to commercially zoned property. The carwash building shall not exceed 5,000 s.f. The vacuuming facilities may be located outside the building but may not be in any required yard area and shall not be located forward of the primary façade of the car washing facility. Vehicular stacking lanes and drive through lanes shall not be located close to the US 41 right- of-way than the principal building. Furthermore, the petition also proposes an eating establishment to the east of the car wash with a maximum of 6,000 square feet of gross floor area in the principal structure. Vehicular stacking lanes and drive through lanes shall not be located closer to US 41 right-of-way than the principal building. The building height for both the car wash and eating establishment will be 35 feet zoned and 42 feet actual. Parking lots, vehicular use areas, and service functions areas shall be located to the sides or rear of buildings, no closer to US 41 than the principal building except that a maximum of one double loaded drive aisle of parking is permitted in the front yard. 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. As outlined above, is 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 roadway infrastructure has sufficient capacity 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), at which time a new TIS will be required to demonstrate turning movements for all site access points. Finally, the project’s development Page 1278 of 6405 RZ-PL20220005137; 11760 Tamiami Trail East Revised: October 14, 2024 Page 12 of 15 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. 8. Whether the proposed change will create a drainage problem. It is not anticipated that rezoning of the property will create any stormwater related issues. Stormwater best management practices, treatment, and storage will be addressed through Environmental Resource Permitting (ERP) with the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). Staff will evaluate the stormwater management system and design criteria at the time of SDP or PPL. 9. Whether the proposed change will seriously reduce light and air to adjacent areas. Development of the site will need to meet the site design standards as set forth in the LDC. The conditions of approval included in Exhibit A in the Draft Ordinance (Attachment A) are a sound attenuation wall, stricter height limits, and landscaping to protect the adjacent areas from the reduction of light or air. 10. Whether the proposed change will adversely affect property values in the adjacent area. 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. Staff does not anticipate the rezoning would be a deterrent to the improvement of adjacent property in accordance with existing regulations. 12. Whether the proposed change will constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual owner as contrasting with the public welfare. If the proposed development complies with the GMP through the proposed rezoning, then that constitutes a public policy statement supporting zoning actions when they are consistent with said Comprehensive Plan. In light of this fact, the proposed change does not constitute a grant of special privilege. Consistency with the FLUE is further determined to be a public welfare relationship because actions consistent with plans are in the public interest. 13.Whether there are substantial reasons why the property cannot be used in accordance with existing zoning. There are no substantial reasons why the property cannot be used in accordance with the existing zoning. The current zoning designation of C-3 permits intermediate types of Page 1279 of 6405 RZ-PL20220005137; 11760 Tamiami Trail East Revised: October 14, 2024 Page 13 of 15 commercial uses. The petitioner contends that the proposed rezoning presents an opportunity to viably develop the property in an area where the concentration of commercial uses is encouraged, given that the subject property is located near a gas station and has remained vacant. 14.Whether the change suggested is out of scale with the needs of the neighborhood or the County. As a result of the Home Depot – SE Naples CPUD approval, the subject project became eligible for the FLUE text-based Office and Infill Commercial (OIC) Subdistrict provision. The OIC Subdistrict would allow the subject property to rezone from its current Commercial Intermediate District (C-3) to the highest intensity commercial zoning district of the abutting site (CPUD). The Home Depot Commercial Subdistrict allows uses consistent with the Heavy Commercial District (C-5) and the C-3 zoning district. The proposed car wash use is an allowed use within the General Commercial District (C-4) of the LDC. Accordingly, the subject site would be eligible to develop with C-3, C-4, and C-5 commercial uses without the need for a GMP amendment. 15. Whether is it impossible to find other adequate sites in the County for the proposed use in districts already permitting such use. There may be other sites in the County that could accommodate the proposed uses; however, this is not the determining factor when evaluating the appropriateness of a zoning decision. The petition was reviewed on its own merit 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, which would be required to make the property usable for any of the range of potential uses under the proposed zoning classification. Any future development anticipated by the rezoning would require site alteration. This project will undergo evaluation relative to 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 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. Moreover, a water main is available along Tamiami Trail East, and a wastewater main is available along Tamiami Trail Page 1280 of 6405 RZ-PL20220005137; 11760 Tamiami Trail East Revised: October 14, 2024 Page 14 of 15 East. 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. 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 BCC during its advertised public hearing.

Both of our car washes are within the very close vicinity of the proposed car wash with our locations being 2.2 miles and 2.4 miles away, respectively. We write this letter to raise our concerns and objections to the proposal. The Applicant claims that the area is in need of another car wash, but that could not be further from the truth. A simple review of the associated maps would show that there are already five substantial car washes within just a three mile radius of the proposed location. Five car washes in this small vicinity is far more than would reasonable for the population in the area, and this oversaturation of the market is exacerbated when out of season. The insertion of another car wash in this oversaturated market will create unmerited stress on the car washes that already serve the limited market in the area and potentially lead to business closures. The Applicant attempts to distinguish itself in the nature of its car wash business, but the reality is that four of the nearby five car washes are essentially identical. Even the County Staff noted their concerns associated with the “high proportion of car washes . . . .” The Applicant also attempts to paint the approval of the car wash as somehow serving the needs of the local community, but it is difficult to ascertain what needs are being served when there are so many car washes in the area already providing identical service with almost identical facilities. An oversaturation of the market does not serve the local community. It does, however, create strain on local businesses that can lead to closures of the already existing businesses. Additionally, the Application appears to rely heavily on the argument that the proposal is permitted on the basis that the Home Depot adjacent property has permitted uses of C-5, pursuant to Ordinance 2024-08. Docusign Envelope ID: 286F8503-9385-49E3-B18D-19FAD5762B4F Page 1461 of 6405 A review of Ordinance 2024-08, however, clearly reflects that the Home Depot has permitted uses of only C-3.
