(Fund 1105, Project No. 90536)OBJECTIVE: To move forward with the annual required beach and inlet monitoring surveys and reports for Collier County Beaches and Inlets for 2026.
CONSIDERATIONS: The Coastal Zone Management (CZM) Section is tasked with the maintenance and monitoring
of over thirty (30) miles of coastline, beaches, estuaries, channels, and bays. CZM has specific goals, objectives, and
criteria to meet as identified within the Collier County Growth Management Plan Land Development Code, and the
Codes of Laws and Ordinances regarding the county’s coastal aquatic resources. In order to meet these goals and
objectives, CZM has been charged with a variety of programs including the implementation of beach re-nourishment
and dredging projects, as well as any related operations that are required to maintain the health, aesthetics, and safety of
the county’s coastal waterways and communities. Humiston & Moore provided a proposal dated August 15, 2025 in the
amount of $161,547.00 to perform the monitoring services through a Work Order under library contract 18-7432-CZ.
Yearly physical monitoring of the beaches and inlets is required by FDEP permit. Monitoring consists of field survey
measurements of the above and below water topography of the beach, generally for its entire length, and to a width from
the dune line to over 1000 feet offshore. Results of this report are used to evaluate, recommend, and prioritize annual
beach segment renourishment.

(CAC) on November 13, 2025 (8-0), and will be presented to the Tourist Development Council (TDC) on December 12,
2025.
This item is consistent with the Quality of Place Objectives of the County’s Strategic Plan.

Monitoring Project (90536). FDEP cost-share funding will be requested if eligible at a future date to reimburse Collier
County for a portion of the completed work. The source of funding is tourist development tax.
