Executive Summary
Recommendation to sunset the Coastal Storm Risk Management Feasibility Study Ad Hoc Advisory Committee.
OBJECTIVE: That the Board allows the Coastal Storm Risk Management Feasibility Study Ad Hoc Advisory
Committee to dissolve on the sunset date of July 26, 2025.
CONSIDERATIONS: This ad hoc committee was established on April 11, 2023, by Resolution No. 2023-64, to assist
the Board of County Commissioners in compiling and identifying issues and relevant best practices relating to the
Collier County Coastal Storm Risk Management (CSRM) Feasibility Study being undertaken by the Army Corps of
Engineers, and to provide a forum for public participation and feedback relating to the CSRM Feasibility Study. This
committee is set to sunset on July 26, 2025, unless extended by resolution of the BCC or converted into a permanent
advisory committee.
In January of this year, the Army Corps of Engineers announced it was not moving forward with the feasibility study,
due to lack of funding. With no certain timeline for the study to resume, staff recommends the Committee be dissolved.
The Board could in the future reestablish the Committee if the feasibility study is reinstituted.
If approved, we will contact the members, advise them of the sunset and that if reformed we would contact them for
their interest in the reformed committee.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact associated with this action.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires majority vote for Board
approval. - JAK
RECOMMENDATIONS: That the Board of County Commissioners approves the sunset of the Coastal Storm Risk
Management Feasibility Study Ad Hoc Advisory Committee.
