Item # 17.E
ID# 2024-2224
Executive Summary
*** This has been continued to the February 11, 2025, BCC Meeting *** Recommendation to approve a Resolution of
the Board of County Commissioners of Collier County, Florida, amending the Administrative Code for Land
Development, which was created by Ordinance No. 2013-57, by amending the administrative procedures to create an
application for Mobile Food Dispensing Vehicles, Permanent, Permit. (This item is a companion to 17D)
OBJECTIVE: To obtain Board of County Commissioners (Board) approval of the proposed amendment to the Collier
County Administrative Code for Land Development (Administrative Code), which is a companion to a Land
Development Code (LDC) amendment (PL20220006373).
CONSIDERATIONS: The Administrative Code provides the processes and procedures for reviewing various land use
petitions or applications identified with the LDC. On September 24, 2024, the Board approved the request staff brought
forward as a consent agenda item, requesting direction to waive the nighttime hearing requirement, hold two regularly
scheduled daytime hearings, and advertise an Ordinance amending the LDC (PL20220006373). The LDC amendment
proposes to allow permanent mobile food dispensing vehicles in certain zoning districts. The first hearing will be held on
January 14, 2024.
This Administrative Code amendment will amend Chapter 4 (Administrative Procedures) to create the permitting process
for applicants who desire to obtain approval for their permanent mobile food dispensing vehicles. Apr oval of this
Administrative Code amendment is contingent upon the adoption of the companion amendment to the LDC (see Item
#2024-2205 under Summary Agenda). If the LDC amendment is not adopted or if it is revised, this resolution will be
updated accordingly.
CCYC RECOMMENDATION: The Collier County Planning Commission (CCPC) reviewed the companion LDC
amendment on Thursday, December 7, 2023, at 5:05 p.m. An earlier iteration of this amendment to the Administrative
Code was included as an exhibit in the LDC amendment packet. The CCPC unanimously recommended approval of the
LDC amendment with the following changes requested by the Greater Naples Fire Rescue District:
1. In LDC section 5.05.16 D.3.e., include “fire lanes and access roads.”
2. In LDC section 5.05.16. F.1 requires connections to propane to occur "with breakaway connections."
There were no members of the public in opposition.
DSAC RECOMMENDATION: The Development Services Advisory Committee (DSAC) reviewed the companion
LDC amendment on November 1, 2023. An earlier iteration of this amendment to the Administrative Code was
included as an exhibit in the LDC amendment packet. The DSAC recommended approval, contingent upon the following
changes:
1. In LDC section 5.05.16 D.2, a wall may be higher than 6 feet. Reword the statement "… unless there is at
least an intervening 6-foot tall concrete or masonry wall" to read "…unless there is a concrete or masonry wall at
least six feet in height."
2. In LDC section 5.06.16 F.2, replace the word “ pads” with “ designated areas.”
3. Stipulate that the amendment shall only apply to new food truck parks after the Ordinance's adoption date.
With the advice of the CAO, staff has determined that this stipulation is unnecessary and that prior approved Food
Truck Parks and site plans with MFDVs are nonconforming per LDC section 9.03.00.
4. Staff shall review text in LDC section 2.03.06 with the County Attorney's Office prior to the Planning
Commission meeting to see if there is an opportunity for MFVD and Food Truck Parks to be a permissible use in
commercial PUD districts or make a cross-reference to similar uses. After meeting with the CAO, LDC
subsections 5.05.16 E.1. and E.3. have been revised to require a comparable use determination for PUD districts

and similar uses.
The Land Development Review Subcommittee of the Development Services Advisory Committee (DSAC) reviewed an
earlier iteration of this LDC amendment on October 17, 2023. The Subcommittee recommended approval, contingent
upon using the term "full cutoff" as opposed to "fully shielded" as it relates to the use of outdoor lighting fixtures.
FISCAL IMYACT: There are no anticipated fiscal impacts to Collier County, as there is no advertising requirement for
amendments to the Adminstrative Code.
PROG TW MANAPEMENT IMYACT: There is no Growth Management impact associated with this action.
LEPAL CONSIDERATIONS: TBD
RECOMMENDATIONS: To approve the proposed Resolution amending Ordinance No. 2013-57, as amended, the
Collier County Administrative Code for Land Development and direct staff as to any changes.
