As part of this process, the local government must provide amendments to the local comprehensive plan a /k/a Growth Management Plan (GMP) guided by Evaluation & Appraisal Report (EAR) recommendations. The periodic amendment process, which occurs once every seven years, as described in Chapter 163.3191, F.S., is a two -phase process. It began with the preparation, by the local government, of an Evaluation & Appraisal Report (EAR). The EAR evaluated the performance of the various Elements of the local government comprehensive plan since the previous EAR -based amendment process. It assessed the successes and failures of the various Goals, Objectives, Policies, and programs included within the local comprehensive plan, and provided recommendations for necessary changes. Additionally, the EAR is the primary means by which the local plan can respond to changes in federal, state or regional planning requirements. The recommendations contained in the EAR became the basis of proposed amendments to the local government comprehensive plan, the second phase in the amendment process. Collier County's first EAR was adopted by the Board of County Commissioners on July 16, 1996. The subsequent EAR -based amendments were adopted on October 18, 1997. The second EAR, which reviewed the performance of Collier County's Growth Management Plan (GMP) from October 1997 to July 1, 2003, was adopted on July 27, 2004. The Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO), which has oversight for comprehensive plans, amendments, and EARs for all local governments, found the 2004 EAR sufficient on November 15, 2004. The third EAR, which reviewed the performance of the •1• GMP from July 2004 through 2010, was adopted by the BCC on January 31, 2011. The then Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA), which had oversight for comprehensive plans, amendments, and EARs for local governments, found the 2011 EAR sufficient on April 12, 2011. The amendments that are the subject of this Staff Report are limited in scope primarily to those recommended in the EAR. Though not necessarily recommended by specific reference in the EAR, general updating and "housecleaning" amendments are allowed as part of this amendment process; these include updating Ordinance numbers, revising /correcting government agency names, word - smithing, reformatting, re- arranging the order of Districts /Subdistricts, and so forth. Transmittal hearings on these amendments were held on December 7, 2011 (EAC); January 26, February 16, March 1 and 6, 2012 (CCPC), and on April 24, 2012 (BCC). FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY ORC REPORT /STAFF RESPONSE: After review of Transmitted GMP amendments, the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) rendered an Objections, Recommendations and Comments (ORC) Report. Only Objections can form the basis of a non - compliance determination, unless the adopted amendments vary significantly from those transmitted. In their July 6, 2012 ORC Report, the DEO summarized, "ft]he Agency does not identify any objections. However, the... Report outlines a number of technical assistance comments consistent with Section 163.3168(3), F.S. The Agency's technical assistance comments will not form the basis of a challenge." A significant portion of changes made in response to DEO and external agency Comments serve to technically improve GMP elements. Due to the technical nature of many of the changes, additional data and analysis is not deemed necessary to support them. In the few instances where support documentation is decidedly needed, it is identified in the County Response to the ORC Report and attached thereto. The DEO's entire ORC Report is attached to this Staff Report. Agencies who provided comments in addition to those from the DEO are the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) and the State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). The full Collier County Response to the ORC Report is also attached to this Staff Report. In the ORC Response document, where a Policy, Objective or other provision is changed in response to a Comment, the proposed revision is provided — using underline/ strike through format. With the exception of the one minor non -ORC Report related amendment noted below, the focus of this Staff Report and hearing is only on the County responses - and Element revisions, where appropriate - to the ORC Report. The ORC Report contained only Comments pertaining to the following Elements /Sub - Elements: Capital Improvement Element, FLUE, Transportation Element, and Stormwater Management (Drainage) Sub - Element. ELEMENTS WITH NO ADDITIONAL CHANGES: No additional changes were made since the April 24, 2012 BCC Transmittal hearing on EAR -based amendments to the following GMP Elements: Economic Element; Sanitary Sewer Sub - Element; Potable Water Sub - Element; Solid Waste Sub - Element; Housing Element: Public Schools Facilities Element; and, Immokalee Area Master Plan Future Land Use Map. ELEMENTS WITH ADDITIONAL CHANGES: Additional changes made since the April 24, 2012 BCC Transmittal hearing on EAR -based amendments to the following GMP Elements are limited to DEO directed revisions throughout the GMP to reflect the repeal of Florida Administrative Code 9J -5 and associated changes: Golden Gate Area Master Plan Element; Intergovernmental Coordination Element; and, Recreation and Open Space Element. These Elements, along with those previously affected by EAR -based amendments, comprise the additional changes to the amendments that the DEO did not specifically, previously review. And though not •2- specifically reviewed by the DEO, these additional changes relate to general direction provided by the DEO in their ORC Report. These entries are found under the Collier County Response to the ORC Report heading, Other Instances of References to Rule 9J -5 F.A.C. to be Revised. ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL (EAC) RECOMMENDATION: The EAC held Adoption hearings on the Conservation and Coastal Management Element, Natural Groundwater Aquifer Recharge Sub - Element, and Stormwater Management Sub - Element on September 5, 2012. By a unanimous vote, the EAC recommended that the CCPC and BCC adopt the proposed 2011 EAR -based amendments, with Drainage Sub - Element Policies 6.2 and 6.3, and CCME Objective 2.1.a modified further to better reflect the County's stormwater management practices. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: That the CCPC forward the EAR -based GMP amendments to the BCC with a recommendation to adopt - with modifications forwarded since Transmittal hearings, as noted in the accompanying Collier County Response to the ORC Report - and to transmit to the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity.

The Collier County proposed comprehensive plan amendments address issues raised in the County's 2011 Evaluation and Appraisal Report, address statutory changes, and update the goals, objectives and policies and other parts of the Growth Management Plan. Responses provided herein fall into one of the following response categories. The first three categories comprise the list of additional changes made in Elements of the Collier County Growth Management Plan that the Department of Economic Opportunity did not previously review. 1) Changes to Plan Elements made in response to DEO Comments 2) Changes to Plan Elements made in response to Comments received from external review agencies 3) Changes to Plan Elements made in response to comments received from review agencies outside the ORC Report 4) Plan Elements with no additional changes Modifications to approved- for - Transmittal versions of Objectives and Policies, or related Element entries proposed by staff in response to the ORC Report or other review agency comments appear as edits [in underline /strike - through format] . ELEMENT CHANGES MADE IN RESPONSE TO DEO COMMENTS ➢ Future Land Use Element (FLUE), Transportation Element (TE): Comment 1: The Department recommends that the County revise the Future Land Use Map to reflect the correct long -term planning timeframe, of at least 2022, and include the revised map with the adopted amendment. Also, the Department recommends that the County update its Transportation Map Series to include the projects in the Collier and Lee Counties MPO's 2035 Long Range Transportation Plan, and Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Work Program. The incorporation of these projects into the comprehensive plan helps the Department in its review for consistency of the comprehensive plan with proposed transportation projects being considered for federal and state monies. The projects are reviewed at the state level for the following acts: (1) the National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA), (2) the Florida Coastal Management Program Federal, and (3) the MPO's Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). COLLIER COUNTY RESPONSE: Acknowledged, and the Future Land Use Element and Transportation Element Policies are revised, as shown below. The 2011 EAR (Chapter 2, Sections 2.2 and 2.3) contains data and analysis regarding —I — Collier County Response to the Objections, Recommendations and Comments Report on 2011 EAR -based Amendments land use inventories and future needs. This data indicates there is adequate land to support the projected population in the FLUM horizon year of 2025. Future Land Use Element Maps as modified for Adoption: Updates to Countywide Future Land Use Map and addition of Coastal High Hazard Area Maps, as indicated below. Future Land Use Map and Map Series a. Amend Countywide Future Land Use Map (FLUM) to: 1. Delete Traffic Congestion Area boundary (correlates to changes in Density Rating System) 2. Revise Coastal High Hazard Area boundary (correlates to changes in Policy 12.2.5 of Conservation and Coastal Management Element and changes in Density Rating System) 3. Revise planning horizon from 2006 -2016 to 2012 -2025. b. Create new Coastal High Hazard Area Map depicting revised Coastal High Hazard Area boundary — generalized boundary to correlate with that depicted on Countywide FLUM and more precise boundary (correlates to changes in Policy 12.2.5 of Conservation and Coastal Management Element, revised CHHA boundary on Countywide FLUM, and changes in Density Rating System) c. Create new Coastal High Hazard Area Comparison Map depicting revised Coastal High Hazard Area boundary — generalized boundary to correlate with that depicted on Countywide FLUM and more precise boundary — and the now existing (to become former) CHHA boundary for comparison purposes (correlates to changes in Policies 6.1.1 and 12.2.5 of Conservation and Coastal Management Element and revised CHHA boundary on Countywide FLUM) [The above revisions also affect the text entries in the Future Land Use Map Series listing appearing on Future Land Use Element page 1] Transportation Element text as modified for Adoption: A. FUTURE SYSTEM NEEDS The Collier County Metropolitan Planning Organization JMPO,) Long Range Transportation Plan's Financially Feasible Plan and Needs Plan as adopted on MaFGh 23, 2 December 10, 2010, are hereby incorporated to define the major roadway needs for Collier County. The 2025 2035 Financially Feasible Plan is presented as Map TR -1 and shows the needed roadway improvements that can be funded through the year 2025 2035. Map TR -2 shows the total projected roadway improvements needed by 2825 2035. Note that the Financially Feasible Plan does not include all needs identified through the Urban Area Transportation Study. It only includes the projects that can be funded from reasonably anticipated revenues. While the total 202-5 2035 needs are estimated to require funding of approximately 44 4.56 billion dollars, the cost feasible plan reflects funding of approximately $1.5 billies 602 million dollars. Appendix A presents the 2825 2035 Long Range Transportation Plan resulting from the Urban Area Transportation Study prepared by the MPO as additional data and analysis. Map TR -1 also serves as the Traffic Circulation Map that presents the number of lanes on Collier County Roadways in 242-5 2035. Map TR -3 shows the functional classification of the roadways and Map TR -3A shows the future functional classifications in the sCounty. The refinement of these plans to incorporate updates to the MPO's Plan, development of a collector road system and results of —2— Collier County Response to the Objections, Recommendations and Comments Report on 2011 EAR -based Amendments corridor specific studies, shall occur on a regular basis upon approval of the Collier County Board of County Commissioners (BCC). * ** * ** * ** * ** * ** text break 3.

It is recommended that the references to Rule 9J -5, F.A.C., be removed from FLUE Policy 2.4 and Transportation Element Policy 5.8. Also, any other references to Rule 9J -5, F.A.C., should be deleted from the County's comprehensive plan. Additionally, the Department recommends that Drainage Sub - Element Policy 6.3.1 be updated to reference Section 403.814(12), F.S. The currently referenced Rule 40E- 400.315, F.A.C., does not exempt projects from off -site discharge limitations, and this rule will be superseded on July 1, 2012 with the aforementioned Statute. COLLIER COUNTY RESPONSE: Acknowledged, and a number of Policies are revised, [also addressing FDOT Comment no. 3 and SFWAM Comment no. I] as follows: —3— Collier County Response to the Objections, Recommendations and Comments Report on 2011 EAR -based Amendments Public Facilities Element/Drainage Sub - Element (the Stormwater Management Sub - Element, upon adoption): Policy 6.3: Allowable off -site discharge rates shall be computed using a storm event of 3 day duration and 25 year return frequency. The allowable off -site discharge rates are as follows: a. Airport Road North Sub -Basin 0.04 cfs /acre (North of Vanderbilt Beach Road) b. Airport Road South Sub -basin 0.06 cfs /acre (South of Vanderbilt Beach Road) C. Cocohatchee Canal Basin 0.04 cfs /acre d. Lely Canal Basin 0.06 cfs /acre e. Harvey Basin 0.055 cfs /acre f. Wiggins Pass Basin 0.13 cfs /acre g. All other areas 0.15 cfs /acre The County may exempt projects from these allowable off -site discharge rates if any of the following applies: 1. —. 1. (re- numbered only) 3-.2. (re- numbered only) Future Land Use Element text as modified for Adoption: Policy 2.4: Pursuant to Section 163.3180, Florida Statutes and the Urban Infill and Urban Redevelopment Strategy contained in this Element, development located within the South U.S. 41 Transportation Concurrency Exception Area (TCEA) (See Map TR- 4) may be exempt from transportation concurrency requirements, so long as impacts to the transportation system are mitigated using the procedures set forth in Policy 5.5 of the Transportation Element. Transportation Element text as modified for Adoption: Policy 5.8: Should the TIS for a proposed development reflect that it will impact either a constrained roadway link and /or a deficient roadway link within a TCMA as determined in the most current Annual Update and Inventory Report (AUIR), by more than a de minimis amount (more than 1% of the maximum service volume at the adopted LOS), yet continue to maintain the established percentage of lanes miles indicated in Policy 5.7 of this Element, a proportionate share congestion mitigation payment shall be required as follows: a. Congestion mitigation payments shall be calculated using the formula established in Rule W Section 163.3180(5)(h), Florida Statutes. The facility cost for a constrained roadway link shall be established using a typical lane mile cost, as determined by the Collier County Transportation Administrator, of adding lanes to a similar area /facility type as the constrained facility. b. Congestion mitigation payments shall be utilized by Collier County to add trip capacity within the impacted TCMA, road segment(s) and /or to enhance mass transit or other non - automotive –4– Collier County Response to the Objections, Recommendations and Comments Report on 2011 EAR -based Amendments transportation alternatives, which adds trip capacity within the impact fee district or adjoining impact fee district. c. Congestion mitigation payments under this Policy shall be determined subsequent to a finding of concurrency for a proposed project within a TCMA and shall not influence the concurrency determination process. d. No impact will be de minimis if it exceeds the adopted LOS standard of any affected designated hurricane evacuation routes within a TCMA. Hurricane routes in Collier County are shown on Map TR -7. Any impact to a hurricane evacuation route within a TCMA shall require a proportionate share congestion mitigation payment provided the remaining LOS requirements of the TCMA are maintained. OTHER INSTANCES OF REFERENCES TO RULE 9J -5 F.A.C. TO BE REVISED: CIE INTRODUCTION section — page 1; plus legislation cites and quotations; I. INTRODUCTION In 1985 and 1986, the Florida Legislature significantly strengthened the requirements for county and city comprehensive plans. These growth management statutes were found in the "Local Government Comprehensive Planninq and Land Development Regulation Act" until major changes were made by the 2011 Florida Legislature, most by HB 7207 (with minor amendments by HB 639), which is now Chapter 2011 -139, Laws of Florida. Included with these changes was to re -name the Chapter 163 act from the "Local Government Comprehensive Planninq and Land Development Regulation Act" to the "Community Planning Act ", giving new emphasis to the role of local government. One of the provisions of the Community Planning Act is the requirement that the comprehensive plan must contain a Capital Improvement Element "...to consider the need for and the location of public facilities..." (Section 163.3177(3), Florida Statutes). The Capital Improvement Element (CIE) must identify public facilities that will be required during the next five years, including the cost of the facilities, and the sources of revenue that will be used to fund the facilities. One of the specific requirements of the legislation states that the public facilities that are contained in the CIE must be based on "standards to ensure the availability of public facilities and the adequacy of those facilities +ssIWd+sg to meet established acceptable levels of service." The Feg ilatinn that imnlomnntS the statutes defines the phrase "level of service" as "...an indicator of the extent or degree of service provided by ... a facility based on and related to the operational characteristics of the facility. Level of service shall indicate the capacity per unit of demand for each public facility." (Section 163.3164(28), Florida Statutes). CCME Policy 6.2.1 — page 26; Policy 6.2.1: As required by Section 163.3177(6)(a)(10)(c), Florida Statutes, wetlands identified by the 1994 -95 SFWMD land use and land cover inventory are mapped on the Future Land Use Map series. These areas shall be verified by a jurisdictional field delineation, —5— Collier County Response to the Objections, Recommendations and Comments Report on 2011 EAR -based Amendments subject to Policy 6.2.2 of this eElement, at the time of project permitting to determine the exact location of jurisdictional wetland boundaries.

The information found there provides a basis for the Implementation Strategy and serves to meet the requirements of Section 163.3177(6)(a), Florida Statutes,, Mia.n OVERVIEW, subsection B — page 4; B. BASIS [reflects merger of Ordinance No. 2002 -32 and 2002 -54] This Element is based in large part on the Future Land Use Element adopted as part of the 1983 and 1989 Collier County Comprehensive Plans. The land use strategy put forth in those Plans have served Collier County well, therefore, a general continuation is provided. The best characteristics of the 1983 and 1989 Comprehensive Plans included the use of a binding Future Land Use Map with designated "Urban" areas and the confinement of intensive Zoning Districts, thus intensive land uses, to those areas. Moreover, this Element includes a strategy for the protection of natural resources and agri- business in the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District [and] Rural Lands Stewardship Area by employing various regulations and incentives to direct incompatible land uses away from such natural resources and to enhance the economic viability of agri- business. In addition, this Element is based on the Support Document: Land Use Data and Analysis, and the summation of the detailed planning conducted for each of the other portions of the Comprehensive Plan. Data, analysis and implementation strategies from the various elements have contributed to the geographic framework through the configuration of the designations on the Future Land Use Map ' and the associated standards for use of land. The State Comprehensive Plan and the Southwest Florida Regional Comprehensive Policy Plan form another basis for the Future Land Use Element.

OVERLAYS AND SPECIAL FEATURES, Area of Critical State Concern Overlay, subsection A — pages 87 — 89; A. Area of Critical State Concern Overlay The Big Cypress Area of Critical State Concern (ACSC) was established by the 1974 Florida Legislature. The Critical Area is displayed on the Future Land Use Map as an overlay area. The Critical Area encompasses lands designated Conservation, Agricultural /Rural, Estates and Urban (Port of the Islands, Plantation Island and Copeland). The ACSC regulations notwithstanding, there is an existing Development Agreement between Port of the Islands, Inc. and the then State of Florida Department of Community Affairs, approved in July 1985, which regulates land uses in the Port of the Islands Urban area; and, there is an Agreement between the Board of County Commissioners and the Florida Department of Community Affairs, approved in April 2005, pertaining to development in Plantation Island. Chokoloskee is excluded from the Big Cypress Area of Critical State Concern. All Development Orders within the Critical Area shall comply with Chapter 28 -25, —6— Collier County Response to the Objections, Recommendations and Comments Report on 2011 EAR -based Amendments Florida Administrative Code, "Boundary and Regulations for the Big Cypress Area of Critical State Concern ".

RLSA Policy 1.16 — page 98; Policy 1.16: Stewardship Receiving Areas will accommodate uses that utilize creative land use planning techniques and Credits shall be used to facilitate the implementation of innovative and flexible development strategies described in Section 163.3168(2), Florida Statutes. RLSA Policy 4.6 — page 105; Policy 4.6: SRA characteristics shall be based upon innovative planning and development strategies referenced in Section 163.3168(2), Florida Statutes. These planning strategies and techniques include urban villages, new towns, satellite communities, area - based allocations, clustering and open space provisions, and mixed -use development that allow the conversion of rural and agricultural lands to other uses while protecting environmentally sensitive areas, maintaining the economic viability of agricultural and other predominantly rural land uses, and providing for the cost - efficient delivery of public facilities and services. Such development strategies are recognized as methods of discouraging urban sprawl. GGAMP OVERVIEW, subsection A — page 3; A. COUNTY -WIDE PLANNING PROCESS Pursuant to Gh^ ^teF 463 FleFida Statutes the "LOGal r_`eyemmeR# GempFeheRsive Planning and „ " Section 163.3177(6), Florida Statutes, the Collier County Growth Management Plan shall contain the following elements: 1.

In 1991, the Board of County Commissioners chose the option of adopting the Golden Gate Area , Master Plan, in recognition of the unique characteristics of the Golden Gate Area. In addition to establishing the Collier County Growth Management Plan's mandatory structure, Chapter 163, R.S. ^a Rule 9i 5, F=.e.G. Florida Statutes, also subjects the Plan to a mandatory evaluation process every seven 7) years. This process involves the preparation of an Evaluation and Appraisal Repo Review (EAR) to determine whether, and to what extent, the existing Growth Management Plan has carried out its stated Goals, Objectives and Policies. ICE Policy 3.1— page 5; Policy 3.1: Based upon Section 163.3177(h), Florida Statutes, Collier County shall work with the local municipalities to identify and implement joint planning areas and /or joint infrastructure service areas for the purpose of planning for potential future municipal annexation of such areas. The identified joint planning areas and /or joint infrastructure service areas shall be depicted on the County's Future Land Use Map series. ROSE INTRODUCTION section — page 1; Chapter 163.3177(6)(e), Florida Statutes, requires each local government comprehensive plan to have "a recreation and open space element indicating a comprehensive system of public and private sites for recreation, including, but not limited to, natural reservations, parks and playgrounds, parkways, beaches and public access to beaches, open spaces, and other recreational facilities." SpGeEleMeats has b9efldeleted. T—w While the Recreation and Open Space Element remains a requirement for local comprehensive plans in the State of Florida, the format and contents of such an Element may be tailored to local needs, provided that the intent of the Statute is met. This Recreation and Open Space Element was fesertly updated, as recommended by the Community Character/ Smart Growth Advisory Committee, by Ordinance No. 2003 -67, adopted on December 16, 2003, to further implement the Collier County Community Character Plan and "Smart Growth" principles.

While the County includes a compatibility FLUE Objective 3 and Policy 3.1.i for the Naples Airport, it should add compatibility standards for the following public airports: the Everglades Airpark, the Immokalee Airport, and the Marco Island Airport. COLLIER COUNTY RESPONSE: Future Land Use Element (FLUE) Policy 3.1.i. is revised to reference the existing compatibility provisions in the Collier County Land Development Code pertaining to all four airports. —9— Collier County Response to the Objections, Recommendations and Comments Report on 2011 EAR -based Amendments FLUE text as modified for Adoption: Policy 3.1: Land Development Regulations have been adopted into the Collier County Land Development Code (LDC) that contain provisions to implement the Growth Management Plan through the development review process. These include the following provisions: * ** * ** * ** * ** * ** text break * ** * ** * ** * ** * ** The mitigation of incompatible land uses within the area designated as the Airport Noise Area Overlay on the Future Land Use Map shall be accomplished through: implementation of regulations that require sound - proofing for all new residential structures built within the 65 LDN Contour; recording of the legal description of the noise contour boundary in the property records of the County; and, the inter -local agreement with the Naples Airport Authority that requires the County to notify the Authority of all development proposals located within 20,000 feet of the airport that exceed height standards established by the Federal Aviation Administration. Additionally, to address compatibility with the Naples Municipal Airport, Marco Island Executive Airport, Everglades Airpark and Immokalee Regional Airport, the County will continue to implement the following provisions in the Collier County Land Development Code, Ordinance No. 04-41, as amended: Section 2.03.07C., Airport Overlay (APO); Section 4.02.06, Standards for Development in Airport Zones; and, Appendix D, Airport Zoning. ELEMENT CHANGES MADE IN RESPONSE TO EXTERNAL REVIEW AGENCY COMMENTS Agencies who provided comments in addition to those from the DEO are the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) and the State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). ➢ Capital Improvement Element (CIE): Agency Comment: Re: CIE Policies 1.5.A and B as transmitted by the County — Policies 1.5.A and B establish LOS standards for roadways [with] reference to "FIRS ". The FIRS has been discontinued by [FDOT] in accordance with recent legislation and has been incorporated into the Strategic Intermodal System (SIS). Per s. 163.3180, the County now has the ability to establish its own LOS standards on SIS and emerging SIS transportation facilities. While exiting non -state facilities funded by the Transportation Regional Incentive Program (TRIP) are also not bound to state LOS standards, the county should abide by any applicable TRIP finding agreement requirements for these facilities. For new TRIP funded facilities, [FDOT] should be consulted to insure consistency with the SIS Plan pursuant to s. 339.2819. For SIS facilities, [FDOT] encourages Collier County to coordinate with [us] and establish LOS standards consistent with the new FDOT LOS policy and procedure that was recently approved by FDOT's Executive Board. [FDOT] recommends that specific standards should be considered. [FDOT Comment no. 1 of 4, paraphrased for brevity]r —10— Collier County Response to the Objections, Recommendations and Comments Report on 2011 EAR -based Amendments County Response: No new LOS standards are being established by this proposal; previously established LOS standards are simply being relocated from the Transportation Element to the CIE. Nonetheless, the County acknowledges the FDOT recommendations. Collier County has consistently abided by applicable TRIP funding agreement requirements for these facilities and has historically, and will continue to, consult and coordinate with FDOT where TRIP or SIS facilities are under consideration. The County makes no further changes to the CIE based on this FDOT Comment. CIE text as modified for Adoption: Policy 1.5: The standards for levels of service of public facilities shall be as follows: A. Roadways: 1. Arterials and collector roads: Level of Service indicated below on the basis of peak hour, traffic volume: Level of Service "E" on all six -lane roads: 2. Level of Service "D" peak hour on all other County aP4 or State arterial and collector roads not on the PeFeda IRtFastate Highway System Strategic Intermodal System (SIS). B.

[Refer to] FDOT Comment no. 1, as it relates to Policy 1.5 of the CIE. [FDOT Comment no. 2 of 4, paraphrased for brevity] County Response: Acknowledged, and the Objective is revised to replace the "Policy 1.3" reference with "Policy 1.5 in the Capital Improvement Element, as follows. No change to Transportation Element is necessary. —12— Collier County Response to the Objections, Recommendations and Comments Report on 2011 EAR -based Amendments Transportation Element text as modified for Adoption: OBJECTIVE 2: The- r 0_1_1 tY shall m Maintain the adopted Level of Service standard as provided for in 12910GY 1.3 Policy 1.5 in the Capital Improvement Element by making the improvements identified on the Five (5) Year Work Program. Future Land Use Element (FLUE) Agency Comment: Re: FLUE Section I.B.3 of the Future Land Use Designation Description Section as transmitted by the County — [FDOT] provides extended comments about revision to replace Traffic Congestion Area Density reduction guidelines with Coastal High Hazard Area Density reduction guidelines. This section also revised to exempt [certain] properties within the Coastal High Hazard Area (CHHA) from the density reduction actors. [FDOT] recommends that analysis be provided to determine the impact of replacing the Traffic Congestion Area Density reduction guidelines with the Coastal High Hazard Area Density reduction guidelines. Should substantial additional development occur from this amendment, it is recommended that an area wide traffic study be conducted and supporting documentation be provided to establish whether state roadways within the County will operate at their adopted LOS standards, as identified within the County's [GMP] during short term (2017) and tong term (2035) horizon year conditions. [FDOT] provides additional recommendations should any roadway segments are found to operate under adverse conditions in the short or long terms. [FDOT Comment no. 4 of 4, paraphrased for brevity] County Response: Regarding the issue of increased traffic associated with increased density allowance via elimination of Traffic Congestion Area (TCA) boundary and replacement with Coastal High Hazard Area (CHHA) boundary: Staff's analysis shows a potential density increase of 628 total dwelling units [population of 1,009 persons] which yields a potential increase of 5,637 total daily trips. These potential trips would be spread from the Lee County line down to an area around Davis Boulevard (SR 84). (Please see the attached spreadsheet of affected properties, titled: Density Rating System Proposed Changes — Density Increase and Trip Generation; the attached spreadsheet, titled: Table A — Collier County EAR Traffic Analysis in regards to changing from a TCA to a CHHA; and, the attached map, titled: Exhibit A, Coastal High Hazard Area Comparison Map — with handwritten additions, identifying the spatial distribution, by Section, of the potential increased dwelling units.) • The potential density increase of 628 dwelling units is the maximum increase. Some percentage of the eligible properties will not seek the eligible dwelling unit increase; some properties will not be rezoned to allow residential development, rather will develop under the existing zoning or be rezoned to another non - residential zoning district; and, some properties will be rezoned to allow residential development but not seek the eligible density bonus, that is, will be rezoned to allow a —13— Collier County Response to the Objections, Recommendations and Comments Report on 2011 EAR -based Amendments density at or below the existing maximum of 3 dwelling units per acre. However, the attached analysis assumed total utilization of the additional 628 dwelling units. Collier County has determined that if the TCA reduction area is replaced with the CHHA area reduction, there are 303 total acres affected. The County has calculated that the potential additional dwelling units on these acres are a maximum of 628 dwelling units. From this information, the County has determined that a maximum number of new PM Peak Hour Directional trips would be approximately 549 vehicles per hour (vph) while the maximum number of new ADT would be approximately 5,637 vehicles per day (vpd) throughout the County. An analysis was completed to determine how these potential additional trips could affect state facilities. This analysis (see attached Table A) shows the following. Short term (PM Peak Hour Directional Trips per the 2012 AUIR): • US 41 from Pine Ridge Road to the Lee County line could increase by up to an additional 10 vph (a de minimus impact) • SR 84 (Davis Boulevard) from Airport Road to County Barn Road could increase by up to an additional 100 vph (a 5.0% impact). • SR 84 (Davis Boulevard) from County Barn Road to Santa Barbara Boulevard could increase by up to an additional 40 vph (a 1.8% impact). • SR 84 (Davis Boulevard) from Santa Barbara Boulevard to Collier Boulevard could increase by up to 40 vph (a 1.4% impact). • All segments are projected to operate within Level of Service (LOS) standards in the short term (next few years). Long term (Average Annual Daily Trips per the Existing plus Committed (E &C) network for the 2035 LRTP amendment currently in progress): • US 41 from Pine Ridge Road to the Lee County line could increase by up to an additional 50 -100 vpd (a de minimus impact) • SR 84 (Davis Boulevard) from Airport Road to County Barn Road could increase by up to an additional 1,500 vpd (a 4.7% impact). • SR 84 (Davis Boulevard) from County Barn Road to Santa Barbara Boulevard could increase by up to an additional 500 vpd (a 2.2% impact). • SR 84 (Davis Boulevard) from Santa Barbara Boulevard to Collier Boulevard could increase by up to 500 vph (a 1.4% impact). • All segments are projected to operate within Level of Service (LOS) standards in the long term with the exception of US 41 from Wiggins Pass Road to the Lee County line with is projected to not operate within the LOS standard with or without the change from a TCA to a CHHA. The potential impact of this change from a TCA to a CHHA to this segment of US is "de minimus." No additional changes are necessary to the Future Land Use Element (FLUE).

Deutsch EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR The State Land Planning Agency has completed its review of the proposed comprehensive plan amendment for Collier County (Amendment No. 12 -1ER), related to the County's EAR -based amendments, which was received and deterrnined complete on May 9, 2012. Copies of the proposed amendment have been distributed to the appropriate reviewing agencies for their review, and their comments are enclosed. We have reviewed the proposed amendment in accordance with the state coordinated review process set forth in Sections 163.3184(2) and (4), Florida Statutes (F.S.) for consistency with Chapter 163, Part II, F.S. The Agency does not identify any objections. However, the attached Objections, Recommendations, and Comments (ORC) Report outlines a number of technical assistance comments consistent with Section 163.3168(3), F.S. The Agency's technical assistance comments will not form the basis of a challenge. They are offered as suggestions which can strengthen the County's comprehensive plan in order to foster a vibrant, healthy community or are technical in nature and designed to ensure compliance with the provisions of Chapter 163, F.S. The County should act by choosing to adopt, adopt with changes, or not adopt the proposed amendment. Also, please note that Section 163.3 184(4)(e) 1, F.S., provides that if the second public hearing is not held and the amendment adopted within 180 days of your receipt of agency comments, the amendment shall be deemed withdrawn unless extended by agreement with notice to the state land planning agency and any affected party that provided comment on the amendment.

Sincerely, Mike McDaniel, Chief Bureau of Community Planning MM/jhs Enclosures: ORC Report and Review Agency Comments cc: Mr. David Weeks, AICP, Growth Management Plan Manager, Collier County Ms. Margaret Wuerstle, AICP, Executive Director, Southwest Florida Regional Planning Council The Honorable Fred W. Coyle, Chairman July 6, 2012 Page 3 of 6 OBJECTIONS, RECOMMENDATIONS AND COMMENTS REPORT COLLIER COUNTY PROPOSED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT 12 -IER I. Consistency with Chapter 163, Florida Statutes (F.S.) The Collier County's proposed comprehensive plan amendments address issues raised in the City's Evaluation and Appraisal Report, address statutory changes, and update the goals, objectives and policies of the comprehensive plan. A. The Department offers the following comments regarding the proposed Evaluation and Appraisal Report -based amendments: Comment 1: The Department recommends that the County revise the Future Land Use Map to reflect the correct long -term planning timeframe, of at least 2022, and include the revised map with the adopted amendment. Also, the Department recommends that the County update its Transportation Map Series to include the projects in the Collier and Lee Counties MPO's 2035 Long Range Transportation Plan, and Florid<< Department of Transportation (FDOT) Work Program. The incorporation of these projects into the comprehensive plan helps the Department in its review for consistency of the comprehensive plan with proposed transportation projects being considered for federal and state monies. The projects are reviewed at the state level for the following acts: (1) the National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA), (2) the Florida Coastal Management Program Federal, and (3) the MPO's Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). Comment 2: House Bill (HB 7207) repealed Rule 9J -5, F.A.C., and incorporated certain definitions and provisions of the Rule into the Florida Statutes. It is recommended that the references to Rule 9J -5, F.A.C., be removed :From FLUE Policy 2.4 and Transportation Element Policy 5.8. Also, any other references to Rule 9J -5, F.A.C., should be deleted from the County's comprehensive plan. Additionally, the Department recommends that Drainage Sub - Element Policy 6.3.1 be updated to reference Section 403.814(12), F.S. The currently referenced Rule 40E- 400.315, F.A.C., does not exempt projects from off -site discharge limitations, and this rule will be superseded on July 1, 2012 with the aforementioned Statute. Comment 3: If the County chooses to continue to implement transportation concurrency, then by or during the next Evaluation and Appraisal cycle, the plan must be amended to meet the requirements of Section 163.3180(5)(h), F.S. This includes an amendment to allow an applicant for a Development of Regional Impact, rezoning, or other land use development permit to satisfy transportation concurrency and Section 380.06, F.S., when applicable, through proportionate share mitigation consistent with the provisions of Section 163.3180(5)(h)3, F.S. During the interim, the County must apply the new statutory provisions to any plan amendments or development orders, particularly the new proportionate share provisions. The Honorable Fred W. Coyle, Chairman July 6, 2012 Page 4 of 6 Comment 4: The Department reminds the County, pursuant to Sections 163.3177(6)(a)3.b., and 163.3177(6)(a)11.,F.S., the comprehensive plan is required to adopt by June 30, 2012 compatibility standards regarding all public airports as defined by Sections 330.27 and 330.02, F.A.C. While the County includes a compatibility FLUE Objective 3 and Policy 3.l d for the Naples Airport, it should add compatibility standards for the following public airports: the Everglades Airpark, the Immokalee Airport, and the Marco Island Airport.

June 6, 2012 1. Amendment Name Collier County EAR Growth Management Plan Amendments DESCRIPTION OF AMENDMENT(S): Collier County has provided text amendments to the County's Growth Management Plan (GMP) based on an Evaluation and Appraisal Report that was adopted on January 31, 2011. The proposed amendments include changes to the following GMP Elements: a. Capital Improve Element; b. Transportation Element; c. Sanitary Sewer Sub - Element; d. Potable Water Sub - Element; e. Drainage Sub - Element; f. Solid Waste Sub - Element; g. Natural Groundwater Aquifer Recharge Sub - Element of the Public Facilities Element; h. Housing Element; i. Recreation and Open Space Element; j. Conservation and Coastal Management Element; k. Intergovernmental Coordination Element; 1. Future Land Use Element, including the Future Land Use Map and Map Series; m. Golden Gate Area Master Plan; n. Immokalee Area Master Plan Future Land Use Map; o. Economic Element; and p. Public Schools Element According to the County staff report a notable difference exist between what had been proposed in the adopted EAR and the proposed changes to the Immokalee Area Master Plan (IAMP). The IAMP was submitted to the State in the EAR as an "optional element" as allowed in Chapter 163, F.S. As such there were no specific criteria to guide the format or purposes of the element. The IAMP was originally developed as a mandate of Policy 6.4 of the Future Land Use Element of the County's GMP. The EAR called for revisions to the plan to be prepared as part of the subsequent County's EAR -based amendments because at the time the IAMP was in the process of being revising the plan's land use designations. The plan was supposed to be adopted in the first quarter of 2011; however, difficulties affected the adoption of the IAMP within its expected schedule and DEO granted the County an extension to the timeframe so that a remedy to the. issues that prevented adoption by the County Board of County Commissioners (BCC). The County staff reports that the Master Plan will be processed as a separate GMP amendment with the timeframes being decided by the Immokalee Redevelopment: Agency (CRA). In addition, the Rural Lands Stewardship Area (RLSA) amendments, generated at the conclusion of the RLSA 5 -year review and designated in the EAR as the Overlay's assessment, are not included in these amendments. Due to several technical reasons, the amendments for the Overlay were never taken through the formal GMP amendment process. The EAR adopted by the County in 2011 indicated that the comprehensive assessment for the Overlay and proposed amendments would be initiated at the completion of the in- process Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) for the area. The plan would be lead by U.S. Fish and Wildlife. In the fall of 2011, the County learned that the HCP had stalled. With the completion date uncertain, the County brought the issue before the BCC who decided that the RSLA amendments would be processed in a GMP amendment cycle separate from these EAR -based amendments. 2. ADVERSE EFFECTS TO SIGNIFICANT REGIONAL RESOURCES AND FACILITIES IDENTIFIED IN THE STRATEGIC REGIONAL POLICY PLAN: Council staff has reviewed the proposed text amendments to the Collier County GMP and finds that the changes are procedural, provide updated materials, or add policies that add to the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the region and thereby improve the County's GMP. Council staff also finds the proposed amendments are consistent with the previously adopted EAR and do not adversely affect: any significant regional resources or facilities that are identified in the Strategic Regional Policy Plan. 2 3. EXTRA - JURISDICTIONAL IMPACTS INCONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLANS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS WITHIN THE REGION Council staff has reviewed the proposed amendments with respect to extra jurisdictional impacts on surrounding local government Comprehensive Plans and finds that the proposed amendments do not negatively impact and are not inconsistent with adjacent .local governmental Comprehensive :Plans.

This Policy Alexander Spier provides in pertinent part as follows: Bill Stephenson 1 1 14.15 Tamiami Trail East, Naples, FL 34113 George Wainscott 239.775.0036 • (Fax) 239.775.0477 Karl Wyss www.HabitatCollier.org 6ellier-The County shall create or preserve affordable housing to minimize the need-for additional local services and avoid the concentration of affordable housing units only in specific areas of the iurisdiction adequate isfFaGtFWGt ern and seF inter nrn ..pia 6lab n * * * * Habitat is concerned with the bolded portion of the amendment. The language is very broad - having been taken verbatim from the provisions of Subsection 163.3177(6)(f)3.of the Florida Statutes. Habitat is unsure of the meaning of the language and is also unsure as to how this Policy may be applied to Habitat's development of affordable housing projects in the County. For example, what does the term "concentration" mean ? Is it a percentage of all of the homes in a given area ? What does the term "specific areas of the jurisdiction" mean ? Does this mean a street, block, neighborhood, subdivision, zoning district, planning district, census tract, commission district or a section ? There are no sub - policies under this policy nor are there any other policies that explain how this requirement is to be implemented. Habitat believes that more specificity is required. This is especially true given the requirements of the growth management laws. According to Subsection 163.3164(36) of the Florida Statutes, a policy must describe the way in which programs or activities are conducted. to achieve an identified goal. There is no such description in Policy 1.10. Moreover, the law requires that principles and strategies [goals, objectives and policies of the plan] must: 1) contain programs and activities to ensure that the comprehensive plan is implemented; 2) describe how the local government's programs, activities and land development regulations will be initiated, modified or continued to implement the plan in a consistent manner; 3) identify the programs, activities and land development regulations that will be a part of the strategy to implement the plan; -4) identify the principles that describe how the programs, activities and land development regulations will be carried. out; and 5) establish meaningful and predictable standards for the use and development of land and provide meaningful guidelines for the content of the more detailed land development regulations. See Subsection 163.3177(1) of the Florida Statutes. Additionally, the requirements for the Housing Element contain similar language stating that the Element must contain express principles, guidelines and standards for the creation and preservation of affordable housing as well as providing for its siting and distribution. See Subsection 163.3177(f)3. of the Florida Statutes. Revised Policy 1.10 sets forth no program or activity to explain how this provision will be implemented. There is no meaningful or predictable standard that describes how the Policy will be carried out. There is no express principle, guideline or standard for the siting; or distribution of affordable housing pursuant to this Policy. Habitat would also point out that it recently filed a Petition for Declaratory Statement with the Department asking for its expertise as to what the statutory provisions of Subsection 163.3177(6)(f)3.of the Florida Statutes mean since the statutory provision has found its way nearly verbatim into the County's EAR based amendments as revised Policy 1.10 of the Housing Element. The Petition is now pending with the Department. Habitat appreciates the Department's attention to this matter.

The Evaluation and Appraisal Report based amendment package consists of text amendments to various elements in the County's comprehensive plan. The District requests the following comments be considered by the Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) in its report to the County: Update Drainage Sub- Element Policy 6.3.1. to reference Florida Statute Section 403.814(12). The currently referenced Rule 40E- 400.315, Florida Administrative Code does not exempt projects from off -site discharge limitations, and this rule will be superseded on July 1, 2012 with the aforementioned Statute. Remove the reference for District coordination to develop and implement a plan to encourage inspections of stormwater systems from Conservation and Coastal Management Element Policy 2.2.5. The District does not require these inspections. However, the District is available to provide technical assistance and to coordinate education efforts with the County regarding the importance of periodic inspections and maintenance. The District offers its technical assistance to the County and the Department of Economic Opportunity in developing sound, sustainable solutions to meet the County's future water supply needs and to protect the region's water resources.

GOVERNOR Fort Myers, FL 33913 SECRETARY June 1, 2012 Mr. Ray Eubanks Plan Processing Administrator 1 Department of Economic Opportunity Caldwell Building 107 East Madison Street, MSC 160 Tallahassee, FL 32399 RE: Collier County 12 -1ER Proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendments (Including EAR - based Amendments) — FDOT Comments and Recommendations Dear Mr. Eubanks: The Florida Department of Transportation, District 1, has reviewed the Collier County 12 -1 ER, Proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendments (EAR -based amendments approvedfor transmittal by the Board of County Commissioners on April 24, 2012) in accordance with the requirements of Florida Statutes (F.S.) Section 163 and Chapter 9J -11 of the Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.). The department offers the following comments and recommendations for your consideration regarding the proposed amendments. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT ELEMENT (CIE): FDOT Comment # 1• Policy 1.5 of the CIE establishes the following Level of Service (LOS) roadway standards: LOS Standard Facility E All six lane roadways D All other County and State roadways not on the Florida Intrastate Highway System (FIHS). D I -75 (the only FIHS roadway within the County). The department notes that the FIHS has been discontinued by the department in accordance with recent legislation and has been incorporated into the Strategic Intermodal System (SIS). The department further notes that per s. 163.3180, the county now has the ability to establish its own LOS standards on SIS and Emerging SIS transportation facilities. While existing non -state facilities funded by the Transportation Regional Incentive Program (TRIP) are also not bound to state LOS standards, the county should abide by any -applicable TRIP funding agreement requirements for these facilities. For new TRIP funded facilities, the department should be consulted to ensure consistency with the Strategic Intermodal System Plan pursuant to s. 339.2819. For SIS facilities, the department encourages Collier County to coordinate with the www.dot.state.ft.us Mr. Ray Eubanks Collier County 12 -1ER Proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendments — FDOT Comments and Recommendations June 1, 2012 Page 2 of 3 department and establish LOS standards consistent with the new FDOT LOS policy and procedure that was recently approved by FDOT's Executive Board. Based upon this new policy and procedure, the following LOS standards should be considered. FDOT LOS "C" (SIS hiahways within a transitioninz or rural area type): �,4OW97 • SR 82 • 1 -75 from Broward County line to SR 951 FDOT LOS "D" (SIS hikhways within an urban area type): I -75 from SR 951 to Lee County line TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT (TE): FDOT Comment # 2• Objective 2 of the TE reads "Maintain the adopted Level of Service standards provided for in Policy 1.3 by making the improvements identified on the Five (S) Year Work Program." The department notes that Policies 1.3 and 1.4 of the TE were revised to reference the adopted LOS standards for roadways included in Policy 1.5 of the CIE. Please see FDOT Comment #1, as it relates to Policy 1.5 of the CIE. INTERGOVERNMENTAL COORDINATION ELEMENT (ICE): The EAR based amendments to the ICE are not anticipated to have any adverse impacts on any state roadways. The department offers no comments. FUTURE LAID USE ELEMENT (FLUE),: FDOT Comment # 3• It should be noted that House Bill (HB) 7207 repealed rule 9J -5 of the Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.) and incorporated important and relevant definitions and provisions of the rule into the Florida Statues. It is recommended that reference to Rule 9- J5.0055(6)(a)., F.A.C. be removed from Policy 2.4 of the FLUE as it relates to development located within the South US 41 Transportation Concurrency Exception Area (TCEA). FDOT Comment # 4• Section I.B.3.a of the Future Land Use Designation Description Section was revised to replace the Traffic Congestion Area Density reduction guidelines with the Coastal High Hazard Area Density reduction guidelines. This section was also revised to exempt the properties within the Coastal High Hazard Area in Section 1, Township 50 South, Range 25 East from the density reduction factors. Consistent with Comment # 14 of the Collier County Proposed EAR — FDOT Recommendations and Comments letter (dated October 8, 2010). The department recommends that analysis be provided to determine the impact of replacing the Traffic Congestion Area Density reduction guidelines with the Coastal High Hazard Area reduction guidelines. Should substantial additional development occur from this amendment, it is recommended that an area wide traffic study be conducted and supporting documentation be provided to establish whether state roadways within the county will operate at their adopted level of www.dot.state.fl.us Mr. Ray Eubanks Collier County 12 -IER Proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendments — FDOT Comments and Recommendations June 1, 2012 Page 3 of 3 service (LOS) standards, as identified within the county's comprehensive plan during short term (2017) and long term (2035) horizon year conditions. If any state roadway segments are found to operate under adverse conditions in the short term, the department recommends that the county's five -year schedule of capital improvements in the comprehensive plan Capital Improvements Element be updated to include remedies or improvement projects that will maintain the county's adopted LOS standards in the near term. Projects should be identified as funded or unfunded and prioritized by the county per 163.3177(3) (b) F.S. Potential remedies include revised LOS standards, capacity improvements on failing roadways, capacity improvements on parallel roadway facilities, investments in alternative transportation modes, Transportation Demand Management strategies, Smart Growth initiatives, and/or other solutions as may be identified by the county. For long term failures, the department recommends that appropriate policies be indentified in the county's Capital Improvement Element or Transportation Element, and the needed improvements be added to the appropriate plans and programs. GOLDEN GATE AREA MASTER PLAN ( GGAMP): The EAR based amendments to the GGAMP are not anticipated to have any adverse impacts on any state roadways. The department offers no comments. IMMOKALEE AREA MASTER PLAN (LAMP) ELEMENT: As noted in the Transmittal of Proposed 2011 Evaluation & Appraisal Report -based Growth Management Plan Amendments Letter (dated May 4, 2012), difficulties affected adoption of the IAMP within its expected schedule, and the Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) granted Collier County an extended timeframe with which to remedy issues that prevented adoption by the BCC. This Master Plan will be processed as a separate Growth Management Plan (GMP) amendment, the timing of which is being determined by the Immokalee Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA). The department offers no comments. Thank you for providing the department with the opportunity to review and comment on the proposed amendments.

CAPITAL 1AIPROATAIENT GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES [Revised text, page 2] GOAL: TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE PUBLIC FACILITIES CONCURRENT WITH NEW DEVELOPMENT IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE AND MAINTAIN OR EXCEED ADOPTED STANDARDS FOR LEVELS OF SERVICE. OBJECTIVE 1 (PUBLIC FACILITYLEVEL OF SERVICE STANDARDS: Identify and define types of public facilities, establish standards for levels of service for each such public facility, and determine what quantity of additional public facilities is needed in order to achieve and maintain the standards. Policy 1.1: [Revised text, page 2] The County shall establish standards for levels of service for public facilities, as follows: Public facilities are facilities which appear in other elements of this comprehensive plan, including arterial and collector roads, stwf ee .v er stormwater management systems, potable water systems, aF wastewater treatment systems, solid waste disposal facilities, parks and recreation facilities, and public school facilities. The standards for levels of service of County provided public facilities shall apply to development orders issued by the. County, to the County's annual budget, and to the appropriate individual element of this comprehensive plan. The standards for levels of service of public facilities which are not County provided shall apply to development orders issued by the County and to the appropriate individual element of this comprehensive plan, but shall not apply to the County's annual budget. Public facilities shall include land, structures, the initial furnishings and equipment, design, permitting, and construction costs. Other "capital" costs, such as motor vehicles and motorized equipment, computers and office equipment, office furnishings, and small tools are considered in the County's annual budget, but such items are not "public facilities" for the purposes of the Growth Management Plan, or the issuance of development orders. Policy 1.2: [Revised text, page 2] The quantity of public facilities that is needed to eliminate existing deficiencies and to meet the needs of future growth shall be determined for each public facility by the following calculation: Q= (SxD) -I. Where: "Q" is the quantity of public facility needed, "S" is the standard for level of service, "D" is the demand, such as the population, and "I" is the inventory of existing facilities.

The calculation will be used for existing demand in order to determine existing deficiencies. The calculation will be used for projected demand in order to determine needs of future growth. The estimates of projected demand will account for demand that is likely to occur from previously issued development orders as well as future growth. B. The Board of County Commissioners shall review all rezone petitions, SRA designation applications, conditional use petitions, and proposed amendments to the Future Land Use Element (FLUE), Golden Gate Area Master Plan (GGAMP) or Immokalee Area Master Plan (LAMP) affecting the overall countywide density or intensity of permissible development, with consideration of their impact on both the variable "D" in the formula Q = (S x D) - I, and the overall County transportation system. The Board shall not approve any such petition or application which would directly access a deficient roadway segment or if it impacts an adjacent roadway segment that is deficient, or which significantly impacts either: (1) a deficient roadway segment or adjacent roadway segment; or (2) the seasonal population based upon the Bureau of Economic and Business Research at the University of Florida (BEBR) medium range growth rate population projections, for all public facilities, for the variable "D ", unless one of the three items listed below simultaneously occurs: (-a)1. Specific mitigating stipulations are approved in conjunction with the rezone or SRA designation resolution, conditional use petition, or FLUE amendment, to restore or maintain the Level of Service on the impacted roadway segment; (-1)2. The adopted population standard used for calculation of "Q" in the formula Q = (S x D) - I is amended based on relevant, appropriate and professionally accepted data and analysis; or, (0a. The Schedule of Capital Improvements is updated to include any necessary projects that would support the additional public facility demand(s) created by the rezone, SRA designation resolution, conditional use petition, or amendment to the Future Land Use Element. C. Significant impact is hereby defined for Section B of this Policy as, an impact generating potential for increased countywide population greater than 2% of the population projections for parks, solid waste disposal, potable water, wastewater treatment, and Vie- stormwater management facilities, or as generating a volume of traffic equal to or greater than 2% of the adopted LOS standard service volume of an impacted roadway. D. There are three circumstances in which the standards for levels of service are not the exclusive determinant of need for a public facility: 1. Calculated needs for public facilities in coastal high hazard areas are subject to all limitations and conditions in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element and Future Land Use Elements of this Growth Management Plan.

Replacement of obsolete or worn out facilities, and repair, remodeling and renovation, will be determined by the Board of County Commissioners upon the recommendation of the County Manager. 3. Public facilities that provide levels of service in excess of the standards adopted in this Growth Management Plan may be constructed or acquired at any time as long as the following conditions are met: a. the facility does not make financially unfeasible any public facility of the same type that is needed to achieve or maintain the standards for levels of service adopted in this Growth Management Plan, and b. the facility does not contradict, limit or substantially change the goals, objectives and policies of any element of this Growth Management Plan. Any public facility that is determined to be needed as a result of any of the factors listed in Section B or Section D of this Policy shall be included in the regular Schedule of Capital Improvements contained in this Capital Improvement Element. All capital improvement projects for such public facilities shall be approved in the same manner as the projects that are identified according to the quantitative analysis described in Section A of this Policy. Population definitions as used in this Capital Improvement Element and other elements are provided below. Permanent Population is the population projection figure based on Bureau of Economic and Business Research at the University of Florida (BEBR) medium range growth rate population projections. The population projection figure is then converted from April 1 to October .l, which is the beginning of the fiscal year for Collier County. Seasonal Population is the BEBR population figure (described above) converted to its October 1 figure, increased by 20% for all areas of the County to reflect the increase of seasonal part-time residents and visitors. Unincorporated Area Seasonal Population is the seasonal population figure (described above) for unincorporated Collier County only, adjusted to represent how seasonal residents utilize certain park facilities differently. * ** * ** * ** * ** * ** text break * ** * ** * ** * ** * ** Policy 1.4: [Revised text, pages 4, 5] Public facility improvements are to be considered in the following order or priority: A.

The purpose for identifying the largest contiguous area is to provide for a core area that has the greatest potential for wildlife habitat by reducing the interface between the preserve area and development which decreases the conflicts from other land uses. Criteria for determining the dimensional standards of the preserve are to be set out in the Land Development Code. (3) Areas that fulfill the native vegetation retention standards and criteria of this policy shall be set aside as preserve areas. On -site and off -site preserve areas shall be protected by a permanent conservation mechanism to prohibit further development, consistent with the requirements of this policy. The type of permanent conservation mechanism, including conservation easements, required for a specific development may vary based on preserve area size, type of development approval, and other factors, as set forth in the County's land development regulations. (4) Selection of native vegetation to be retained as preserve areas shall reflect the following criteria in descending order of priority: a. Wetland or upland areas known to be utilized by listed species or that serve as corridors for the movement of wildlife shall be preserved and protected in order to facilitate the continued use of the site by listed species or the movement through the site, consistent with the requirements of Policy 7. 1.1 and 7.1.2 of this element. b.

Within the applicable Urban Designated Areas, a base density of 4 residential dwelling units per gross acre may be allowed, though not an entitlement. This base level of density may be adjusted depending upon the location and characteristics of the project. For purposes of calculating the eligible number of dwelling units for a project (gross acreage multiplied by eligible number of dwelling units per acre), the total number of dwelling units may be rounded up by one unit if the dwelling unit total yields a fraction of a unit .5 or greater. Acreage to be used for calculating density is exclusive of. the commercial and industrial portions of a project, except where authorized in a Subdistrict, such as the Orange Blossom Mixed -Use Subdistrict; and, mixed residential and commercial uses as provided for in the C -1 through C -3 zoning districts in the Collier County Land Development Code; and, portions of a project for land uses having an established equivalent residential density in the Collier County Land Development Code. b.

Master Planned Activity Centers Any of the five Mixed Use Activity Centers listed below may be designated as a Master Planned Activity Center, via the rezoning process. A Master Planned Activity Center is one which has a unified plan of development in the form of a Planned Unit Development, Development of Regional Impact or an area -wide Development of Regional Impact. If choosing to desierlate a Mixed Use Activity Center, or portion thereof, as a Master Planned Activity Center, the property Pfepert3= owners within such Mixed Use Activity Centers shall be required to utilize the Master Planned Activity Center process; as provided below. # 2 US 41 and Immokalee Road # 3 Immokalee Road and Collier Boulevard # 5 US 41 and Vanderbilt Beach Road # 7 Rattlesnake- Hammock Road and Collier Boulevard #14 Goodlette -Frank Road and Golden Gate Parkway In recognition of the benefit to the public road network resulting from the coordination of planned land uses and coordinated access points to t e p4he read „°twer-r, Master Planned Activity Centers are encouraged through the allowance of flexibility in the boundaries, and thus location of uses permitted within a designated Mixed Use Activity Center. The boundaries of Master Planned Activity Centers depicted on the Future Land Use Map Series are understood to be flexible and subject to modification as provided for below. However, the acreage within the reconfigured Activity Center shall not exceed that within the existing Activity Center. The actual mix of land uses shall be determined using the criteria for other Mixed Use Activity Centers. All of the following criteria must be met for a project to qualify as a Master Planned Activity Center: 1. The applicant shall have unified control of the majority of a quadrant in a designated Activity Center.

This District consists of approximately 93,600 acres, or 7% of Collier County's total land area. Significant portions of this District are adjacent to the Urban area or to the semi - rural, rapidly developing, large -lot North Golden Gate Estates platted lands. Agricultural land uses within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District do not represent a significant portion of the County's active agricultural lands. As of the date of adoption of this Plan Amendment, the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District consists of more than 5,550 tax parcels, and includes at least 3,835 separate and distinct property owners. Alternative land use strategies have been developed for the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District, in part, to consider these existing conditions. The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District provides a transition between the Urban and Estates Designated lands and between the Urban and Agricultural /Rural and Conservation designated lands farther to the east. The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District employs a balanced approach, including both regulations and incentives, to protect natural resources and private property rights, providing for large areas of open space, and allowing, in designated areas, appropriate types, density and intensity of development. The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District allows for a mixture of urban and rural levels of service, including limited extension of central water and sewer, schools, recreational facilities, commercial uses and essential services deemed necessary to serve the residents of the District.

ESTATES DESIGNATION A. Estates — Mixed Use District 3. Conditional Uses Subdistrict Various types of conditional uses are permitted in the Estates zoning district within the Golden Gate Estates area. In order to control the location and spacing of new conditional uses, one of the following four sets of criteria shall be met: a) Essential Services Conditional Use Provisions: Those Essential Services Conditional Uses, as identified within Section 2.01.03 G of the Collier County Land Development Code, may be allowed anywhere within the Estates Zoning District, except as prohibited in certain Neighborhood Centers, and are defined as: • electric or gas generating plants, • effluent tanks, • major re -pump stations, • sewage treatment plants, including percolation ponds, • hospitals and hospices, • water aeration or treatment plants, • governmental facilities (except for those Permitted Uses identified in Section 2.01.03 of the Land Development Code), • public water supply acquisition, withdrawal, or extraction facilities, and • public safety service facilities, and other similar facilities. Provision Assessm This provision, in varying iterations, has existed in the GGAMP since its adoption in 1991 and remains appropriate. However, the LDC reference and/or list of uses may not encompass all essential services, e.g. communication towers which are listed in LDC Sec. 2.01.03 G, Sec. 5.05.09, and in various zoning districts. Additionally, the reference to the Estates zoning district fails to capture all zoning districts found in the Golden Gate Estates area, e.g. P, Public Use zoning at Max Hasse Park. The County recommends revising the LDC reference and/or list of essential services uses to encompass all essential services uses relevant to the Golden Gate Estates area, and expanding the referenced zoning district listed to encompass all relevant zoning districts in Golden Gate Estates and/or adding reference to the Estates Designation. * ** * ** * ** * ** * ** text break * ** * ** * ** * ** * ** Words underlined are added; words struGk theegh are deleted.

ESTATES DESIGNATION B. Estates — Commercial District 3. Randall Boulevard Commercial Subdistrict Recognizing the unique development pattern and characteristics of surrounding land uses, the Randall Boulevard Commercial Subdistrict has been designated on the Golden Gate Area Future Land Use Map. The Subdistrict is comprised of the following properties: Tract 71, Golden Gate Estates, Unit 23; and the East 165 feet of Tract 54, Golden Gate Estates, Unit 23. See Randall Boulevard Commercial Subdistrict Map. a) The Criteria for the Subdistrict are as follows: All commercial development is encouraged to be in the form of a PUD. Projects directly abutting Estates zoned property shall provide, at a minimum, a 75 -foot buffer of retained native vegetation in which no parking or water management uses are permitted; except that, when abutting conditional uses no such buffer is required. Shared parking shall be required with adjoining developments whenever possible. b) Limitation of Uses - Uses shall be limited to the following: • Automobile Service Station; • Barber & Beauty Shops; • Convenience Stores; • Drug Stores; • Food Markets; • Hardware Stores; • Laundries - Self Service Only; • Post Offices and Professional Offices; • Repair Shops - Radio, TV, Small Appliances and Shoes; • Restaurants, including fast food restaurants but not drive -in restaurants • Shopping Center; • Veterinary Clinics with no outside kenneling. Provision Assessment: The specific list of uses in this subdistrict has existed in the GGAMP since its adoption in 1991 and was taken from a PUD approved prior to 1991. On April 14, 2009, the BCC approved an Appeal of a Zoning Verification Letter (Resolution 2009 -99) having the effect of allowing all uses of the C -2 zoning district in the LDC at that time, under the term "shopping center."
