Agenda 03/28/2017 Item #16D 103/28/2017
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve a donation of $2,219.92 to the Conservation Collier program as offsite
preservation for Comcast Data Facility (PL-20140002387) to satisfy the native vegetation retention
requirement.
OBJECTIVE: To accept an offsite preservation donation in the amount of $2,219.92 for the
Conservation Collier Program.
CONSIDERATIONS: The Land Development Code (LDC), Section 3.05.07, H.1.f. iii. a., allows for
offsite native vegetation retention requirements to be met by monetar y payment to the Conservation
Collier Program. Applicants may make a monetary donation to Collier County with funds to be used by
the County for the purchase and management of off-site conservation lands within the county. The
monetary payment is based on the location of the land to be impacted and shall be equal to 125 percent of
the average cost of lands in that Designation, as defined by the Future Land Use Map (FLUM), purchased
by Collier County through the Conservation Collier Program.
The proposed donor, Cable Holdco II Inc., is requesting an insubstantial change to the original SDP (00-
95) to add a new data center shed. This project is located within the rural area as defined by the FLUM.
The vegetation preservation requirement for this 1.14-acre parcel is 10% (0.114 acres), and the applicant
has elected to fulfill their preserve requirement through an offsite monetary donation to Collier County
for the Conservation Collier Program. One hundred and twenty-five percent (125%) of the average cost to
Conservation Collier for lands within the rural area is $19,473 per acre. Therefore, $19,473 X 0.114 =
$2,219.92.
The submittal was approved administratively with stipulations in February 2015 (attached). One
stipulation was that $2,010 shall be donated to Conservation Collier as payment in lieu of native
vegetation requirement. Since the time of that administrative approval, the average cost of rural lands for
the Conservation Collier program has changed slightly, incorporating the purchase of a new good-deal
parcel, resulting in a slightly higher required donation amount of $2,219.92.
FISCAL IMPACT: The donation is intended to provide funds for land acquisition and management of
lands for the Conservation Collier Program. Of the total received, 80% ($1,775.94) will be placed into
Fund 172, the Land Acquisition Trust Fund, and $443.98 will be placed into Fund 174, the Land
Management Trust Fund, to be used for management of any newly acquired property.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved for form and legality and requires a majority vote
for Board approval. JAB
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact associated with this
item.
RECOMMENDATION: To approve and authorize the donation of $2,219.92 to the Conservation
Collier Program.
