EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
BEACH RENOURISHMENT ACTIVITIES
OB,~ECTIVE: To provide an update on the renourishrnent of the beaches of Vanderbilt, Park
Shore, and Naples.
CONSIDERATIONS: Tropical Storm Gabrielle caused an estimated 200,000 cubic yards of
sand to be removed from the beaches of Vanderbilt, Park Shore, and Naples. The BCC, the
Florida Department of Environmental Protection and FEMA declared an emergency. The
requests for FEMA cost sharing have been submitted buy not yet approved.
Prior to renourishing Vanderbilt or Naples beaches, FDEP requires that we agree on a rock
removal plan and execute the plan in the areas with rock. Should FDEP approve the plan
submitted on February 15, 2002, sampling for rocks on Naples beach and sand sifting on
Vanderbilt beach will begin by the middle of March. Sand sifting will be done on Naples
beach based on sampling results.
An initial renoufishment of Park Shore beach (dune restoration and sea wall protection) was
completed in January and the balance of the restoration is planned for November.
Renoufishment of Naples beach from Doctors Pass to 7th Ave. North is anticipated to begin on
March 18, 2002.

US 41 North Phase1 (pine Ridge to Gulf Park Drive) Completed
February 2002, $490,000.00- This was a 50-50 public-private partnership
with Collier County and Pelican Bay MSTD for construction cost.
Landscape Operations and Maintenance to assume maintenance
responsibilities once final completion phase is through. Valley Crest
Landscaping installed the project on time.
US 41 North Phase 2 ( Gulf Park Drive to Vanderbilt Beach
Road}100% Design to be completed by Mike McGee. Pelican Bay to pay
for construction costs estimated at $200,000. The preliminary cost
estimate is $167,000. Pelican Bay MSTD seems to: think it will only cost
$130,000 as estimated by their Advisory Committee. Project management
to be provided by Landscape Operations and Maintenance. Only County
can enter into FDOT maintenance agr,eements. Pelican Bay working on
e. xec~ive summary to ask the E, CC to accept main'~enance
responsibilities. Sent Pelican Bay MSTD - Executive Summaries,
Maintenance Agreements and Cost estimates for their Advisory
Committee's review.
US 41 North ( Napiescape. VBR to Immokalee} Naplescape will hire a
landscape architect from Landscape Operation's fixed-term landscape
architect's list and make their selection through an RFP process. They are
interested in landscape architectural services to provide conceptual
drawings and estimates for each segment. The seed money for the design
services will be donated by the Ritz-Carlton to Naplescape.
o Naplescape expressed an interest in WCI's beautification efforts.
Ron Torrence, President of Pelican Marsh is scheduling a meeting
with Dave Caldwell of WCI to discuss shadng the maintenance cost
for the WCI project which is located in front of Tiburon (Airport-
Pulling and Vanderbilt Beach Road). A boilerplate agreement was
provided to Naplescape to be used in formulating an agreement
with Collier County. The maintenance agreement would be for 5
years as determined by the BCC.
o For U.S. 41, a state road, it was noted that a maintenance
agreement would have to be entered into with FDOT. It is FDOT's
policy to enter into maintenance agreements only with governing
bodies and not developers. Therefore, Collier County would have to
maintain the U.S. 41 segment.
It is no longer the County's policy to pay for new landscaping
projects and if a community wants landscaping they will be required
to provide the construction costs and maintenance costs for 5
years. The maintenance costs for U.S.41 would have to be paid to
the County since the County can only enter into agreements with
FDOT. For other County segments, the developer's in-house staff
following County specifications can perform the maintenance
through a ROW agreement.
Nonetheless, Naplescape is interested in private-public funding for
these three segments identical to Pelican Bay's 50-50 split with the
County for U.S.41 Phase 1. If the County does not wish to enter
into a 50-50 with Pelican Bay or Pelican Marsh, both are preparing
to pay for the entire cost as an alternative. It was asked if Pelican
Bay was intending to add more landscaping to the newly completed
U.S. 41 Phase I by adding additional work to their U.S. 41 Phase B
Project (Gulf park Drive to Vanderbilt). Pelican Bay is not prepared
to add any more plants to Phase I and staff has addressed Pelican
Bay's comments in the U.S. Phase II 60% design review.

E~C~IVESUMMARY
STATUS REPORT ON THE VANDERBILT BEACH MORATORIUM STUDY FOR PROPERTY
GENERALLY LOCATED ON THE EAST AND WEST SIDES OF GULF SHORE DRIVE, NORTH
OF ITS INTERSECTION WITH VANDERBILT BEACH ROAD AND SOUTH OF ITS
INTERSECTION WITH BLUEBILL AVENUE, GENERALLY AFFECTING ALL PROPERTIES
WITH A RESIDENTIAL TOURIST, "RT" ZONING DESIGNATION, IN SECTIONS 32 AND 29,
TOWNSHIP 48 SOUTH, RANGE 25 EAST, COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA.
OBJECTIVE:
To update the Board of County Commissioners on the status of the Vanderbilt Beach Moratorium
project.
CONSIDERATIONS:
The Interim Development Controls (moratorium) for the Vanderbilt Beach residential tourist (RT)
zoning district was adopted by the Board of County Commissioners on January 9, 2002 and became
legally effective on the same date. The duration of the moratorium is for a period of one (1) year. The
purpose and intent of the interim development controls for the RT zoning district in the Vanderbilt
Beach Area is to restrict most development and redevelopment to allow the Collier County Planning
Department to conduct an assessment of the area and determine appropriate development standards for
the area by way of establishing an overlay district. The study process will include public involvement,
data collection and traffic projections, and analysis and development of development standards. Public
comment will be solicited primarily during workshops and public hearings. A draft time line of the
project schedule and a copy of the proposal and ordinance governing the moratorium are attached.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The project will primarily involve Collier County staff time, unless it is decided at a later time to
contract out for special services. It is estimated that the number of hours to conduct the study and
develop the subsequent amendments to the Land Development Code will be approximately 170 hours.
The breakdown in costs is as follows:
2 Principal Planners: 100 hours (50 hours each) x $34.00 = $3,400.00
1 Planning Technican: 20 hours x $24.00 -- $480.00
1 Attorney: 50 hours x $61.00 = $3,050.00
Total estimated cost: +/- $67930.00
It is anticipated that the funding source for this project will primarily come fi.om funds in Cost Centers
113 and 111, within the Planning Services Department.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT:
This project will have no impact on the Growth Management Plan. Subsequent development regulations
adopted as a result of this study will be required to be in compliance with the County's Growth
Management Plan.
HISTORIC/ARCHAEOLOGICAL IMPACT:
Staff's analysis indicates that the property is located outside of an area of historical and
archaeological probability as referenced on the official Collier County Probability Map.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS:
There will be no environmental impacts, which result from this study. An in- depth analysis of proposed
amendments to the County's Land Development Code will involve a more detailed assessment of the
proposed regulafion's impact to the Environment. The Environmental Advisory Council will be
responsible for reviewing and providing recommendations regarding any change in regulations where an
impact to the environment is anticipated.
PLANNING SERVICES STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
No recommendation necessary. The above executive summary is being provided for informational
purposes only.

DRAFT PROPOSAL FOR STUDY OF A PORTION OF THE VANDERBILT
BEACH AREA ALONG GULF SHORE DRIVE, COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA.
1. PROJECT APPROACH AND UNDERSTANDING
A portion of the Vanderbilt Beach area along Gulf Shore Drive was subdivided in the
early 1950's. The Residential Tourist (RT) zoning district was established in this area in
County zoning ordinances dating back to 1963. The area was developed with single-
family residences and smaller scale multi-family land uses. The area is geographically
different from other areas of the County, which have an RT zoning designation. It is
located on a narrow peninsula lying between the Gulf of Mexico and the Vanderbilt
Lagoon. It is served by Gulf Shore Drive, a two-lane thoroughfare. Over time and most
recently the area has been developed and redeveloped with multi-family high-rise
structures and resort hotels.
Because of the heavy traffic generated by these types of uses, the practical difficulties in
providing additional road capacity, the need to protect view corridors of the Gulf and the
Lagoon, the need to maintain and increase public access to the Gulf of Mexico, the need
to maintain or enhance community character, and the need to prevent further
canyonization of the area by the imposition of additional high-rise structures on such a
narrow street, an assessment of the area is necessary.
The key components to project understanding are as follows:
Knowledge of a history of development and redevelopment in the area.
Knowledge of land use inventory of existing structures, population, traffic
generation, layout and design of existing structures and approved projects
Knowledge of participation techniques - the contemplation of amendments to
development regulations, which directly affect a defined area of the County
requires a balancing of interest represented by, elected and appointed officials,
county staff and the general public. A successful project requires recognition of
the desires to protect neighborhoods, ensure a good quality of life, foster
economic health and protect the interests of the public at large.
2. APPROACH
The basic process for examination of the area is one of research, evaluation,
recommendations, and presentation of revised development standards, if applicable.
Implementation of this process requires research and review of existing County
development records, field research and verification, interviews with residents,
interviews with key participants in the development process, and examination of the
issues and regulations affecting similar communities, as the foundation to further work.
With a clear and detailed understanding of the current situation as well as the
requirements of the Growth Management Plan, the staff can then proceed to evaluate the
effectiveness of current requirements, consistency with the Growth Management Plan
and Community Character Plan, and with reasonable and accepted planning principles
and practices. The process is primarily linear- completion of early tasks before
proceeding with later tasks however, some tasks will overlap in time.
B. Scope
Task One - Project Initiation
1.a. A project kick-offmeeting will be held in a meeting formation. Participants will
include staff from the Planning Services Department including Planners from the Current
and Comprehensive Planning Section, and Environmental Specialists. Other participants
will include staff from the Transportation Planning Department and Engineering Services
Department. The purpose of this meeting will be to coordinate details of the work
program, task assignments, schedule work products and to exchange information.
Products: Final approved project schedule; summary of meeting
1.b. Conduct interviews, both one-on-one and in groups, with elected and appointed
officials, staff, citizens, representatives of the development community, and others.
Through these interviews, the team will hear an identification of issues and concerns. It
is anticipated this information will be helpful in a complete understanding of the issues.
Products: Summary of interviews
Task Two - Information Gathering/Document Review/Analysis
2.a. The team will examine the Collier County Growth Management Plan (GMP), the
Community Character Plan, the Land Development Code, County Code of Laws, any
recently adopted ordinances, which are not codified in the LDC, any other documents, or
studies that may be identified in the project initiation meeting and traffic information for
the area.
Products: Progress report
2.b. The GMP, LDC, Community Character Plan and any other pertinent documents or
studies will be carefully reviewed in detail for consistency and applicability in
relationship to the findings in the project initiation meeting and interviews, as well as the
findings from review of other documents or studies that my be on-going or planned for
the area.
2.c. The staff will examine areas of communities which are similarly situated and who
may be undergoing like type of redevelopment pressure. The team will obtain
information in the form of reports or special studies conducted in these communities and
will analyze them for their success and failure.
Products: Draft and final summaries of findings and conclusions, including preliminary
recommendations.
Task Three - Recommendations
3.a. The staff will prepare and submit recommended revisions to the Land Development
Code, consistent with the analysis, findings and conclusions reached from the research
and preliminary recommendations. This draft will be the workshop draft for presentation
to advisory review boards and committees.
Products: Workshop draft of recommendations
3.b. The staffwill present the workshop draft of recommendations to the following
groups where applicable: Development Services Advisory Committee, The
Environmental Advisory Committee, and the Planning Commission. Staff may schedule
other presentations. Comments and recommendations received during these workshops
may be used to make further revisions to the draft document and produce a final draft.
Products: Draft of Recommendations

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
UPDATE OF THE PREPARATION OF A SCOPE OF SERVICES FOR THE NAPLES
PARK COMMUNITY PLAN.
OBJECTIVE: The Board of County Commissioners directed staff to work with the
residents of Naples Park to prepare a scope of services for a community plan and bring the
scope of services back to the Board for approval. The purpose of the community plan would
be to coordinate the improvement and redevelopment of a maturing or declining commercial
or residential area consistent with its community character such that property values,
livability and commerce would be enhanced over time.
CONSIDERATIONS: In the June 2001 Community Character Plan Workshop, the Board
identified their support for community planning for certain areas in the county by suggesting
that $250,000 would be needed for outside consulting services. In addition, the Board
committed that Naples Park would be the first area to be considered for a community plan.
On January 22, 2002, the Board directed staff to meet with Naples Park representatives to
develop the scope of services for a community plan. Staff has had meetings with residents
and business owners of Naples Park for their input toward the scope. The final meeting was
held February 28, 2002, where a draft scope was presented and approved with revisions. The
goal will be to bring the scope of services to the Board of County Commissioners at the
second meeting in March for approval. Naples Park representatives have expressed a strong
interest in extending the contract with Dover, Kohl so that there will be consistency and cost
efficiency toward the preparation of their Community Plan. In response, staff will bring
forward to the Board for their consideration, the Naples Park Community Plan Scope of
Services, a request to extend the Dover, Kohl contract, and the contract amount. With the
authorization to extend the Dover, Kohl contract, the Community Plan preparation can begin
immediately after Board approval.
The Scope of Services includes the following:
Analysis of Assets and Opportunities · Land Use Data Analysis
· Property and Business Owner Interviews
· Market and Location Analysis
· Existing Transportation Framework Analysis
· Community Preference Survey
Five Community Workshops. 1: Community Vision
2: Alternative Concepts
3: Preferred Redevelopment Plan
2. Preferred Redevelopment Plan
· Design Guidelines, Zoning Overlay, Transportation Framework
Plans to Include Land Use Plan, Transportation Plan, Open Space Plan,
Design Guidelines Plans and Detailed Plans of Selected Subareas,
Corridors, Local Streets and Prototype Blocks
Streetscape Improvements
Implementation Plan
Marketing Strategy
· Evaluation of Establishing Additional Areas within the County's CRA
· Schedule of Actions: Timing and Phasing and Definitive Funding Sources
· Other Implementation Strategies
Attached is a location map of the study area.
