Agenda 05/13/2025 Item #17C (Resolution: PL20240000438, project property is located in Sections 22, 27, and 34, Township 49 South, Range 28 East)5/13/2025 Item # 17.C ID# 2025-1292 Executive Summary Recommendation to adopt a resolution of the Collier County Board of County Commissioners designating approximately 655.7 acres in the Rural Land Stewardship Area Zoning Overlay District as a Stewardship Sending Area with a designation “CLH SSA 20”; pursuant to the terms set forth in the Escrow Agreement, Stewardship Sending Area Credit Agreement, all for CLH SSA 20; approving a Stewardship Sending Area Credit Agreement for CLH SSA 20; approving a Stewardship Sending Area Easement Agreement CLH SSA 20; approving an Escrow Agreement for CLH SSA 20; and establishing the number of Stewardship Credits generated by the designation of said Stewardship Sending Area. The subject project property is located in Sections 22, 27, and 34, Township 49 South, Range 28 East. [PL20240000438] OBJECTIVE: To approve the proposed SSA 20 boundary and to establish the twenty Stewardship Sending Area (CLH SSA 20) in the Rural Lands Stewardship Area Zoning Overlay District (RLSA), approve a Stewardship Sending Credit Agreement, Stewardship Easement Agreement, and Escrow Agreement, and establish the number of credits generated. CONSIDERATIONS: Collier County adopted the Rural Lands Stewardship Area (RLSA) Overlay District as an innovative program designed to preserve natural resource areas, protect agricultural lands, and direct growth to suitable locations. The RLSA relies primarily on incentives to protect natural resource areas. As landowners within the RLSA voluntarily protect environmentally valuable land, public benefits can be achieved with little or no public funding. The mechanism to achieve these public benefits is through the voluntary designation of Stewardship Sending Areas (SSAs) in exchange for Stewardship Credits that can be used to entitle compact development. Stewardship Sending Area (SSA) 20 totals approximately 655.7± acres and is located in Sections 22, 27, and 34; Township 49 South; Range 28 East, Collier County. More specifically, SSA 20 is located north of Interstate I-75. SSA 20 will preserve approximately 655.7± acres of private lands. SSA 20 includes habitat for Florida panther (Puma concolor coryi) and Florida black bear (Ursus americanus floridanus) and provides habitat for many other listed species such as Big Cypress fox squirrel (Sciurus niger avicennia), wood stork (Mycteria americana), little blue heron (Egretta caerulea), snowy egret (Egretta thula), tri-colored heron (Egretta tricolor), Florida sandhill crane (Grus canadensis pratensis), and American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis). This SSA application establishes the boundaries of a new SSA within Collier County (i.e., SSA 20); documents the Natural Resource Index (NRI) values assigned to the SSA; proposes the elimination of certain land use layers; and calculates the resulting number of Credits being generated. This application contains the NRI Assessment, support documentation, SSA Credit Agreement, and Stewardship Easement Agreement as required by Section 4.08.06 C of the Collier County Land Development Code. SSA 20 will remove residential uses, also described as Land Use Layer 1, general conditional uses, also described as Land Use Layer 2, earth mining and processing uses, also described as Land Use Layer 3, recreational uses, also described as Land Use Layer 4, and Agriculture Group 1, also described as Land Use Layer 5, Agriculture Support uses, also described as Land Use Layer 6, Agriculture Group 2 also described as Land Use Layer 7 from 655.7± acres, while retaining only the use rights for and conservation, restoration, and natural resource uses, also described as Land Use Layer 8 as set forth in Section 4.08.06.B. of the LDC. The designation of 655.7± acres as SSA 20, along with the removal of the most intense Land Use Layers, generates 1267.9 stewardship credits. This will give added protection to valuable habitats for endangered species such as Florida panthers and wood storks and ultimately provide additional long-term conservation benefits to the region. In summary, SSA20 will generate 1,267.9 total base credits in exchange for placing 655.7± acres into the SSA program. This petition supports the objective of the Community Development strategic focus area to implement prudent and inclusive policy development through effective planning for transportation, land use, and growth management. FISCAL IMPACT: The applicant has paid fees totaling $9,500 for the processing and review of the application and the Page 4923 of 5243 5/13/2025 Item # 17.C ID# 2025-1292 development and maintenance of a Stewardship Credit System Database for the purpose of tracking credits. There are no additional fiscal impacts associated with the application. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: The Rural Lands Stewardship Area Overlay in the Future Land Use Element (FLUE) established the process and requirements for establishing SSAs, which lands qualify for SSA designation, and the use limitations for lands once designated as SSAs. The Rural Lands Stewardship Area Overlay is implemented through the Rural Lands Stewardship Area Zoning Overlay District. The zoning overlay contains the same requirements and limitations as the FLUE Overlay. Therefore, staff’s analysis indicates this petition for designation of SSA is in compliance with the RLSA Zoning Overlay, and it may also be found consistent with the FLUE. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality, and it requires a majority vote for Board approval. (HFAC) RECOMMENDATIONS: To adopt a resolution creating Stewardship Sending Area 20 (CLH SSA 20) in the Rural Lands Stewardship Area Zoning Overlay District (RLSA), designating 655.7± acres as SSA 20, approving a Stewardship Credit Agreement, Stewardship Easement Agreement, and Escrow Agreement for 655.7 and establishing the number of credits generated by the designation of said Stewardship Sending Area.
