STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
The purpose of this section is to express the intent of Long Bay Parmers, LLC, hereinafter referred
to as LBP, to create a Planned Unit Development (PUD) on 9434. acres of land located in Sections
11 and 12, Township 48 South, Range 25 East, Collier County, Florida. The name of this Planned
Unit Development shall be Mediterra. The development of Mediterra will be in compliance with
the planning goals and objectives of Collier County as set forth in the Growth Management Plan.
The development will be consistent with the growth policies and land development regulations
adopted thereunder of the Growth Management Plan Future Land Use Element and other applicable
regulations for the following reasons:
1.1 The subject property is within the Urban Mixed Use Residential District as identified on the
Future Land Use Map as required in Objective 1, of the Future Land Use Element (FLUE).
The purpose of the Urban Mixed Use Residential District is to accommodate the majority of
population growth in an area with relatively few natural resource constraints and where
existing and planned public facilities are concentrated.
1.2 The Growth Management Plan qualifies the subject property for maximum density of four
units per acre. The proposed residential density for the Collier County portion of Mediterra
is 0.8 units per acre, which is less than the maximum allowable density, and therefore is
consistent with and complies with the FLUE Density Rating System.
1.3 The commercial uses within the Village Center District are consistent with the adopted
EAR based amendments to the FLUE, but cannot be developed until the ordinance adopting
the EAR based amendments addressing the proposed Village Center commercial uses
becomes effective.
1.4 Mediterra is compatible with and complementary to existing and future surrounding land
uses as required in Policy 5.4 of the FLUE.
1.5 Improvements are planned to be in compliance with applicable land development
regulations as set forth in Objective 3 of the FLUE.
1.6 The development of Mediterra will result in an efficient and economical extension of
community facilities and services as required in Policies 3.1 .H and L of the FLUE.
1.7 Mediterra is a large scale functionally interrelated community, and is planned to encourage
ingenuity, innovation and imagination as set forth in the Collier County Land Development
Code (LDC) Planned Unit Development District.
SHORT TITLE
This ordinance shall be known and cited as the "MEDITERRA PLANNED UNIT
DEVELOPMENT ORDINANCE".

13 PROPERTY OWNERSHIP
The subject property is currently under the equitable ownership of, or contract with LBP, or
their assigns, whose address is 3451 Bonita Bay Boulevard, Suite 202, Bonita Springs, FL
34134.
1.4 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
A. Mediterra is an in-fill project to be developed on 1,435 acres located west ofi-75 in
north Collier County and south Lee County. Approximately 943+ acres of the
project are in Collier County and the remaining acres are in Lee County. The PUD
jurisdiction applies only to the property located in Collier County.
B. The Collier County project site is located in Sections 11 and 12, Township 48
South, Range 25 East, and is generally bordered on the west by Industrial and
Residential zoned property and Old US 41; on the north by Lee County Agricultural
zoned property; on the east by Agricultural zoned property; and on the south, by
RSF-3 (Imperial Golf Estates) zoned property and Agricultural zoned property. The
location of the site is shown on Exhibit "A".
C. The zoning classification of the subject property at the time of PUD application is
Agricultural with ST overlay and PUD.
D. Elevations within the site vary from approximately 11 to 14 feet-NGVD. The
project is located outside the 100-year floodplain. Specifically, the Project is
located within Zone X of the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map (panel numbers
120067 0185D, 0191D, and 0195D, dated June 3, 1986).
E. According to the Collier County Soil Survey prepared by NRCS, 14 soil units are
present on the project site. These units, all of which are common to Collier County
and southwest Florida, include the following: Malabar fine sand; Riviera-limestone
substratum/Copeland fine sand; Immokalee fine sand; Hallandale fine sand; Pineda
fine sand-limestone substratum; Basinger fine sand; Riviera fine sand-limestone
substratum; Boca free sand; Boca/Riviera-limestone substratum/Copeland free sand,
6/4/~-52046 Vcf:. 061-AJmldns

1-5
depressional; Holopaw fine sand; Urban land-Holopaw/Basinger complex; Satellite
fine sand; Urban land-Satellite complex; and Hallandale/Boca fine sand.
Vegetation on site primarily consists of pine flatwoods with palmetto subcanopy,
pine fiatwoods with graminoid subcanopy, cypress-pine-cabbage palm, melaleuca,
fallow agricultural land, and other open agricultural lands. Exotic vegetation (i.e.,
Brazilian pepper and melaleuca) has invaded most habitat types. The levels of
infestation of melaleuca and Brazilian pepper have increased significantly since the
original site mapping. Many of the wet prairies, pine fiatwoods, pine graminoid and
pine-cypress-cabbage palms habitats have been heavily invaded by melaleuca
and/or Brazilian pepper. A detailed vegetative inventory and FLUCCS map is
included.
F. The Project is located within the Cocohatchee River Basin (Class II) as depicted
within the Collier County Drainage Atlas (June 1998).
1.5 DEVELOPMENT OF REGIONAL IMPACT
LBP has received a Binding Letter of Interpretation of DRI status from the Florida
Department of Community Affairs (DCA) determining that the project is not a DRI and will
result in no regionally significant impacts. At the time the binding letter was received, the
project was known as Toulon.
1.6 DENSITY
A. Mediterra is to be developed on 1,435 acres in north Collier County and south Lee
County. The number of dwelling units authorized to be built pursuant to the DCA's
binding letter, dated February 5, 1999, is 950 units. The gross project density,
therefore, will be a maximum of 0.65 units per acre. The number of dwelling units
to be built in Collier County pursuant to this PUD will not exceed 750.
B. At all times all property included within Mediterra as described in Section 1.2 shall
be included in determining the Collier County project area density.
