Agenda 01/13/2026 Item #16A12 (Staff to advertise and bring back for a public hearing an Ordinance amending the Land Development Code, pursuant to F.S. 125.022)1/13/2026 Item # 16.A.12 ID# 2025-4266 Executive Summary Recommendation to direct staff to advertise and bring back for a public hearing an Ordinance amending the Land Development Code, pursuant to F.S. 125.022, to revise timeframes for processing applications for approval of development permits or development orders. [PL20250010243] OBJECTIVE: To direct staff to advertise and bring back for a public hearing, an Ordinance amending the Land Development Code (LDC), pursuant to F.S. 125.022, to revise timeframes for processing applications for approval of development permits or development orders. CONSIDERATIONS: On June 24, 2025, the governor approved Senate Bill 1080, which amended certain statutes (i.e., F.S.125.022 and F.S. 166.033) that regulate the review and approval of land development permits and development order applications by local governments. The new law, Florida Chapter 2025-177, became effective on October 1, 2025. F.S.125.022 requires counties to specify minimum information for certain applications (zoning, rezones, subdivision approvals, certifications and variances, etc.); to revise timeframes for processing applications for development permits or orders; to provide for refund parameters when the county fails to meet certain timeframes; and to expedite the review for comprehensive plan amendments. Pursuant to F.S. 125.022(6), the terms “development permit” and “development order” do not apply to the timeframes for processing building permits, which are regulated by the Florida Building Code 553.792 (1) A. through B. The statute stipulates, “When reviewing an application for a development permit or development order that is certified by a professional listed in F.S. 403.0877, the county may not request additional information from the applicant more than three times, unless the applicant waives the limitation (timeframe) in writing.” Otherwise, the county must approve or deny the application. Furthermore, “Before the third request for additional information, the applicant must be offered a meeting to attempt to resolve any outstanding issues.” After an application is determined to be complete, the county must proceed to process the application for approval, approval with conditions, or denial within 120 days for applications that don’t require a quasi-judicial or public hearing and 180 days for applications that do require a quasi- judicial or public hearing. To comply with the amended F.S. 125.022, the proposed amendment will modify relevant sections of the Land Development Code (LDC) and the Administrative Code for Land Development in accordance with Chapter 2025-177 of the Laws of Florida. For this LDCA, pursuant to LDC section 10.03.06 A., only one advertised public hearing is required by the Collier County Planning Commission (CCPC) and Board of County Commissioners. DEVELOPMENT SERVICES ADVISORY COMMITTEE (DSAC) - LDR SUBCOMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: On September 16, 2025, the subcommittee unanimously recommended approval with the condition that staff include the required statutory percentage of refundable application fees in either the Administrative Code or the County’s fee schedule. Further, the subcommittee recommended that staff include a processing timeframe chart for the review of an application for completeness, as presented during the meeting. The chart has been incorporated as Exhibit C. DSAC RECOMMENDATION: The Development Services Advisory Committee (DSAC) reviewed the amendment on October 01, 2025, and unanimously recommended approval of the LDC amendment. CCPC RECOMMENDATION: On December 04, 2025, the Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval without changes. This item is consistent with the Collier County strategic plan objective to operate an efficient and customer-focused permitting process. FISCAL IMPACT: There are no anticipated fiscal impacts to Collier County. This will be advertised under the Collier Legal Notices section of the Collier County Clerk of Courts website. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact associated with this action. Page 5708 of 14062 1/13/2026 Item # 16.A.12 ID# 2025-4266 LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires a majority vote of the Board for approval. – CLD. RECOMMENDATION(S): To direct staff to advertise and bring back for a public hearing, an Ordinance amending the Land Development Code, that will revise timeframes for processing applications for approval of development permits or development orders.

The new law, Chapter 2025-177, will become effective on October 1, 2025. It requires counties by F.S.125.022, and municipalities by F.S.166.033, to specify minimun information for certain applications; revise timeframes for processing applications for development permits or orders; provide for refund parameters when the county fails to meet certain timeframes, and expedites the review for comprehensive plan amendments. The LDC amendment identifies those applications, and development order permits for clear communication and timely responses to applicants and recognizes the refund provisions resulting from processing delays. The required processing of an application starts with an acknowledgement of receipt within five business days of an application. Next, the application must be reviewed for completeness within 30 days, with any deficiencies being specified. Non-quasi-judicial hearing applications must be approved or denied within 120 days from when the application is deemed complete and quasi-judicial hearing applications within 180 days. During a public meeting or hearing, the applicant and county may agree, in writing, to an extension of time. If there is a “substantial change” (defined in the statue as 15 percent or more in proposed density, intensity, or square footage of a parcel) to the application, the timeframes restart.

Additionally, if “…the applicant and county agree to an extension of time, the delay is caused by the applicant, or attributable to a force majeure or other extraordinary circumstance,” the county is not required to issue a refund. In accordance with the amended F.S. 177.071-Approval of Plat by Governing Bodies, final plats are now administratively reviewed and approved by a designated authority (County Manager or designee). In LDC section 10.04.03, the amendment will delete “Final Plats” from the graphic illustration for Applications Subject to Type II Review. Also, this proposed amendment will modify relevant sections of the Land Development Code and Administrative Code for Land Development to comply with the Laws of Florida Chapter 2025-177, particularly F.S. 125.022. DSAC-LDR Subcommittee recommendations: On September 16, 2025, the subcommittee unanimously recommended approval with the condition that staff include the required statutory percentage of refundable application fees in either the Administrative Code or County’s fee schedule. Further, the subcommittee recommended staff include a processing time frame chart to the review of an application for completeness as presented during the meeting. The chart has been incorporated as Exhibit C. DSAC recommendations: On October 01, 2025, the Development Services Advisory Committee unanimously recommend approval without change. Planning Commission recommendations: On December 04, 2025, the Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval without change. FISCAL & OPERATIONAL IMPACTS A percentage of refund fees to the applicant can occur in the event of an application processing delay. Operationally, the county will incur administrative costs to update applications review timeframes. GMP CONSISTENCY The proposed LDC amendment has been reviewed by Comprehensive Planning staff and may be deemed consistent with the GMP.
