Agenda 01/09/2018 Item #16A1201/09/2018
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve an easement agreement for the purchase of a road right-of-way,
drainage, and utility easement (Parcel 471RDUE) which will be required for the expansion of
Golden Gate Boulevard between Everglades Boulevard and DeSoto Boulevard (Project 60145).
Estimated Fiscal Impact: $14,700.
OBJECTIVE: To continue acquiring right-of-way in accordance with the adopted budget for the future
expansion of Golden Gate Boulevard between Everglades Boulevard and DeSoto Boulevard.
CONSIDERATIONS: Collier County is seeking to purchase a 3,675 square foot, more or less,
perpetual, non-exclusive Road Right-of-Way, Drainage and Utility Easement (“Parcel 471RDUE”) that is
part of a 1.17 acre parent tract owned by Kenneth G. Minzey, Kathryn M. Minzey, Thomas A. Minzey
and Robert J. Minzey as joint tenants with rights of survivorship (“Property Owners”). The property is
located on the south side of Golden Gate Boulevard between Everglades Boulevard and Desoto
Boulevard.
The accompanying appraisal dated January 2017 prepared by R. Alan Wilcox, MAI, SRA, of Wilcox
Appraisal Services, Inc. estimates the current market value of Parcel 471RDUE to be $7,100. This
estimate is based on a land value of $1,600, rounded ($20,295 per acre) together with the contributory
value of the affected site improvements located within the proposed right-of-way ($5,500).
Contact with the Property Owners regarding the sale of the right -of-way to the County was first made on
or about June 15, 2010. On October 3, 2017, staff was advised by the Property Owners’ attorney that the
appraisal amount of $7,100 is accepted for Parcel 471RDUE.
The attached easement agreement reflects a negotiated all-inclusive settlement amount of $14,600 ($7,100
for the easement plus an additional $7,500 as full and final satisfaction of any and all attorney fees and
expert witness costs that could be asserted against Collier County pursuant to Sections 73.091 and 73.092,
Florida Statutes, with respect to the County’s attempt to acquire Parcel 471RDUE.)
Accordingly, staff is recommending that the Board of County Commissioners (the “Board”) approve the
accompanying agreement for the purchase of Parcel 471RDUE.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funds in the amount of $14,700, being the aggregate settlement price of $14,600
and approximately $100 in recording fees, will be required. The primary funding source for the
acquisition of right-of-way is impact fees. Should impact fees not be sufficient within a particular project,
the secondary funding source will be gas taxes.
Incremental maintenance costs for Golden Gate Boulevard from east of Everglades Boulevard to east of
the Faka Union Canal are estimated at $2,500 per year for mowing and garbage removal. The cost to
maintain stormwater management infrastructure will be approximately $4,000 on a three to five year
basis. New roadway construction has a maintenance curve of approximately five to seven years before
any incremental costs are required for repairs.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been approved as to form and legality, and requires a
majority vote for Board approval. - ERP
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: This recommendation is consistent with the Long Range
Transportation Plan and the Collier County Growth Management Plan.

Dear Mr. Henderson:
Pursuant to your request, an inspection and valuation analysis has been completed of the
above referenced property for the purpose of estimating the market value of the property rights
and improvements (if any) which are proposed to be acquired, together with all diminution in
value to the remainder land and improvements (if any) which can be attributed to the proposed
use of, or activity upon, the proposed perpetual, non-exclusive, road right-of-way, drainage,
utilities easement (Parcel No. 471 RDUE).
The Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation adopted the “2016-2017 Uniform
Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice” (USPAP) on February 6, 2015. The 2016-2017
standards became effective January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2017. In compliance with
Standards Rule 2-2(a), the appraiser is communicating to the client an “Appraisal Report”, one
of the two reporting options allowed under Standards Rule 2-2.
To estimate the compensation due the property owner, the appraiser has estimated the “as is”
market value of the undivided fee simple interest in the parent tract before and after the
proposed acquisition. Accordingly, as of the date of value, January 11, 2017, the appraiser
has utilized the hypothetical condition assuming the proposed acquisition and the
proposed roadway improvements have been completed. A hypothetical condition is
contrary to what exists but is supposed for the purpose of analysis. Hypothetical conditions
assume conditions contrary to known facts about physical, legal, or economic characteristics of
the parent tract; or about conditions external to the property, such as market conditions or
trends; or about the integrity of data used in an analysis.
Wilcox Appraisal Services, Inc. is
committed to the highest degree of
professionalism with all of our
appraisers being designated members
of the Appraisal Institute.

Board of Commissioners. Reliance upon the
appraisal for other uses is not warranted.
The parent tract is improved with a single-family home and associated site improvements. The
parent tract single-family home is setback approximately 150 feet from the existing right-of-way
of Golden Gate Boulevard E. before the taking. After the taking, the remainder property single-
family home is setback approximately 101 feet from the new right-of-way of Golden Gate
Boulevard E. The setback of the remainder property’s single-family home exceeds the
minimum zoning requirement and is within typical market setback standards. The only
significant improvements located within the proposed acquisition area consist of site
improvements. Building and site improvements located outside the proposed acquisition
area are considered to be unaffected. Accordingly, the appraiser has not estimated the
contributory value of the building and site improvements not taken.
This letter of transmittal precedes the full narrative appraisal report, further describing the
property and containing the reasoning and most pertinent data leading to the final value
estimates. Your attention is directed to the "General Assumptions", "General Limiting
Conditions", and "Certificate of Appraisal", which are considered usual for this type of
assignment and have been included in the addendum of this report.
By reason of my investigation and analysis, data contained in this report, and my experience in
the real estate appraisal business, it is my opinion that the amount due the property owner, as a
result of the loss of real estate resulting from the property rights and improvements (if any)
which are proposed to be acquired, including all diminution in value to the remainder land and
improvements (if any) which can be attributed to the use of or activity upon the proposed
perpetual, non-exclusive, road right-of-way, drainage, utilities easement (Parcel No. 471
RDUE), as of January 11, 2017, is:
Value of the Property Rights Taken: $1,600
Value of the Improvements Taken: $5,500
Severance Damages: 0
Net Cost to Cure: 0
TOTAL AMOUNT DUE OWNER: $7,100

Summary of Salient Facts and Conclusions
A. Appraisal Problem:
1. Types of Value (s): Market Value.
2. Property Rights: Undivided Fee Simple Interest.
3. Intended Use of Appraisal Report: The intended use of the appraisal is understood
to be for use as a basis of value for determining
full compensation to the property owner for the
loss of the real estate resulting from the
property rights and improvements (if any) which
are proposed to be acquired, including all
diminution in value to the remainder land and
improvements (if any) which can be attributed
to the use of, or activity upon, the proposed
perpetual, non-exclusive, road right-of-way,
drainage, utilities easement (Parcel No. 471
RDUE).
4. Date of Value: January 11, 2017 (Date of Most Recent
Inspection).
5. Scope of Analysis: Appraisal Report.
6. Owners of Record: Kenneth G. Minzey, Kathryn M. Minzey,
Thomas A. Minzey and Robert J. Minzey .
B. Site Data, Before the Taking:
1. Location: The parent tract is located on the south side of
Golden Gate Boulevard E. between Everglades
Boulevard and Desoto Boulevard in Collier
County, Naples, Florida. The parent tract has a
street address of 4030 Golden Gate Boulevard
E., Naples, Florida 34120.
2. Size & Shape: The parent tract contains 1.17 acres of gross
land area and is rectangular in shape. Tracts
that are smaller than 2.25 acres are considered
to be legally non-conforming tracts.
Accordingly, the parent tract is considered to be
a legally non-conforming tract. Specifically, the
parent tract has a northern property line along
Golden Gate Boulevard E. that measures 75
feet; with a depth there from along the eastern
and western property lines that measure 680

feet; and a rear, southern property line that
measures 75 feet.
3. Roadway Frontage: The parent tract benefits from 75 feet of
frontage along the southerly right-of-way of
Golden Gate Boulevard E. Golden Gate
Boulevard E. is an arterial, undivided, two lane,
paved roadway.
4. Utilities: The available utilities to the parent tract include
telephone, electrical service and emergency
services. Drinking water would be typically
provided by a private well. Wastewater would
be typically disposed of by a private septic tank
and drain field combination.
5. Topography: The parent tract is a level tract covered with
vegetation that is partially cleared. The parent
tract is situated within an area designated Flood
Zone AH in the Federal Emergency
Management Flood Rate Maps, Map Number
12021C0435H, and dated May 16, 2012. Flood
Zone AH includes areas subject to inundation
by 1-percent-annual-chance shallow flooding
(usually areas of ponding) where average
depths are between one and three feet. Base
Flood Elevations (BFEs) derived from detailed
hydraulic analyses are shown in this zone.
Mandatory flood insurance purchase
requirements and floodplain management
standards apply.
6. Predominant Soils: Based on the appraiser's review of the United
States Department of Agriculture’s Soil Survey
of Collier County, Florida, the parent tract is
located in an area with predominant soil types
that includes No. 4, Chobee, Limestone
substratum, and Dania mucks, depressional;
and No. 21, Boca fine sand. It is important to
bring to the reader’s attention that the
information reported above related to the
predominant soil group(s) on or near the parent
tract, are general in nature, and may or may not
apply specifically to the soil group(s) located on
the parent tract.
7. Exotic Vegetation and Wildlife: Current county, state, and federal regulations
have considered certain areas jurisdictional
based upon vegetation classifications and/or
wildlife species. The appraiser is not an expert
Prepared for and property of Collier County Board of Commissioners. Page 7

at vegetation groups or wildlife identification
and has not been provided a report prepared by
such an expert. The parent tract is presumed
to be unencumbered by current county, state,
and federal regulations related to certain areas
being considered to be jurisdictional based
upon vegetation classifications and/or wildlife
species. Furthermore, the appraiser has
assumed a reasonable quantity of non-
jurisdictional uplands exist on the parent tract
suitable for the development of the property in
accordance to the estimated highest and best
use.
8. Environmental Liabilities: The parent tract is assumed to be unaffected by
environmental liabilities. However, the reader is
advised that no environmental studies of the
parent tract have been provided to the
appraiser.
9. Easements & Restrictive
Covenants: The parent tract is encumbered by a 50-foot
wide road right-of-way easement along the
northern property line along the property’s
existing frontage to Golden Gate Boulevard E.
The appraiser is not aware of any other
easements or restrictive covenants which might
adversely affect the market value and
development of the parent tract before the
taking. However, the reader is advised that the
appraiser has not been provided any title
information.
10. Land Use and Zoning: The parent tract is designated Estates
Designation on the Collier County Future Land
Use Map, within the Residential Estates Sub-
district, and is further regulated by the Golden
Gate Area Master Plan. Furthermore, the
parent tract is zoned E, Estates District,
according to the Collier County Land
Development Code.
C. Improvement Data, Before
the Taking: The parent tract is improved with a single-family
home and associated site improvements. The
parent tract single-family home is setback
approximately 150 feet from the existing right-
of-way of Golden Gate Boulevard E. before the
taking. After the taking, the remainder property
single-family home is setback approximately
101 feet from the new right-of-way of Golden

Gate Boulevard E. The setback of the
remainder property’s single-family home
exceeds the minimum zoning requirement and
is within typical market setback standards. The
only significant improvements located within the
proposed acquisition area consist of site
improvements. Building and site
improvements located outside the proposed

Introduction and Definition of the Appraisal Problem
The first step of the valuation process is the development of a clear statement of the appraisal
problem. This sets the limits of the appraisal and eliminates any ambiguity about the nature of
the assignment. The statement of the appraisal problem includes:
• Identification of the Intended User(s);
• Identification of the Real Estate;
• Prior Services;
• Identification of the Property Rights to be Valued;
• Intended Use or Function of the Appraisal;
• Definition of Value;
• Date of the Value Estimate;
• Description of the Scope of the Appraisal;
• Hypothetical Conditions; and
• Other Limiting Conditions.

IDENTIFICATION OF THE INTENDED USER(S)
This appraisal is made for the exclusive use of Harry Henderson, SRA, Review Appraiser,
Transportation Right-of-Way Group, 2885 South Horseshoe Drive, Naples, Florida 34104; and
its use by others is strictly prohibited. This narrative report is made subject to the Assumptions
and Limiting Conditions as listed in the Addendum to this report.
IDENTIFICATION OF THE REAL ESTATE
The parent tract of this appraisal assignment is an unimproved tract of land located on the north
side of Golden Gate Boulevard E. between Everglades Boulevard and Desoto Boulevard in
Collier County, Naples, Florida. The parent tract owners of record are listed on the 2016 Collier
County Tax Roll as Kenneth G. Minzey, Kathryn M. Minzey, Thomas A. Minzey and Robert J.
Minzey . The property is identified as Folio No. 40870440009 and S.T.R.A.P. No. 350500 118
34D08 in the Collier County Property Appraiser’s Office.
PRIOR SERVICES
USPAP requires if known prior to accepting an assignment, and/or if discovered at any time
during the assignment, an appraiser must disclose to the client, and in the subsequent
certification:
• any current or prospective interest in the subject property or parties involved; and
• any services regarding the subject property performed by the appraiser within the three
year period immediately preceding acceptance of the assignment, as an appraiser or in
any other capacity.
The appraiser signing this report has performed no services, as an appraiser or in any other
capacity, regarding the property that is the subject of this report within the three-year period
immediately preceding acceptance of this assignment.
IDENTIFICATION OF THE PROPERTY RIGHTS TO BE VALUED
The valuation of real property includes both the physical real estate and the rights that one or
more individuals or legal entities may hold or contemplate holding in the ownership or use of the
land and improvements. An appraiser may estimate the value of a fee simple estate or a partial
interest created by the severance or division of ownership rights. Special attention must be
given to any limitations on ownership rights such as easements, encroachments, liens, or
leases. Financing must also be considered because fee simple estates, leasehold estates, and
leased fee estates can all be mortgaged. The specific rights to be valued in the probable or
actual financing involved must be ascertained at the start of the assignment because the
complexity of these rights and terms will determine the procedures, skills, and time required to
complete the assignment.
In this particular appraisal assignment, the appraiser has been requested by the client to
estimate the “as is” market value of the undivided fee simple interest in the parent tract before
and after the proposed acquisition. Fee simple ownership is an absolute ownership
unencumbered by any other interest or estate; subject only to the limitations of eminent domain,
escheat, police power and taxation. Eminent domain is the right of the sovereign government to
take private property for public use upon the payment of just compensation. Escheat is the right
to have titular ownership of a property returned to the state if the owner dies and leaves no will
and no known or ascertainable heirs. Police power is the right to regulate property so that the
public safety, health, morals, and general welfare are protected. Examples of this power are
Prepared for and property of Collier County Board of Commissioners. Page 14

zoning ordinances, building codes, air and land traffic regulations, and sanitary regulations.
Taxation is the right to take money from owners of valuable goods, products, and rights. In
addition to government restrictions on property, legal private agreements may also impose
limitations. One type is a restriction inserted in a deed. Other private restrictions include certain
easements, rights of way, and party wall agreements.
The proposed property rights to be acquired involve a proposed perpetual, non-exclusive, road
right-of-way, drainage, utilities easement.
INTENDED USE OR FUNCTION OF THE APPRAISAL
The intended use of an appraisal (formerly known as the Function of the Appraisal), is the
manner in which a client employs the information contained in an appraisal report. Because an
appraisal provides the basis for a decision regarding real property, the nature of the decision
affects the character of the assignment in the appraisal report. For example, a value estimate
may be needed to determine the price at which to buy or sell a property, the amount of a loan, a
basis for taxation, terms of a lease, value of real property assets and financial statements, or a
basis for just compensation and eminent domain proceedings.
The intended use of the appraisal is understood to be for use as a basis of value for determining
full compensation to the property owner for the loss of the real estate resulting from the property
rights and improvements (if any) which are proposed to be acquired, including all diminution in
value to the remainder land and improvements (if any) which can be attributed to the use of, or
activity upon, the proposed perpetual, non-exclusive, road right-of-way, drainage, utilities
easement (Parcel No. 471 RDUE).
DEFINITION OF THE VALUE ESTIMATE(S)
The purpose of any valuation process is to estimate the value of a real property interest.
Therefore, the specified type of value and the interests involved must be clearly defined. Types
of appraised value include market value, fair value, use value, going concern value, investment
value, assessed value, and insurable value.
As previously noted in the letter of transmittal, the type of value to be estimated in this particular
appraisal assignment has been identified as the market value of the undivided fee simple
interest in the parent tract before and after the taking.
Market value is defined as “the most probable price that a property should bring in a
competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller
each acting prudently and knowledgeably, and assuming the price is not affected by undue
stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the
passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:
1. Buyer and seller are typically motivated;
2. Both parties are well informed or well advised, and acting in what they consider their
best interests;
3. A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
4. Payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements
comparable thereto; and

5. The price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special
or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.”

amended at 57 Federal Register 12202, April 9, 1992; 59 Federal Register 29499, June
7, 1994)
DATE OF THE VALUE ESTIMATE(S)
The date of a value estimate must be specified because the forces that influence real property
value are constantly changing. Although conditions observed at the time of the appraisal may
persist for a considerable time after that date, an estimate of value is considered valid only for
the exact date specified. Market value is generally seen as a reflection of market participant’s
perceptions of future economic conditions and the perceptions are based on market evidence at
a specific point in time. Value influences reflect economic conditions at a particular time and
sudden changes in business and real estate markets can dramatically influence value.
As previously identified, the appraiser is estimating the market value of the undivided fee simple
interest in the parent tract before and after the taking. The effective date of the appraisal is
January 11, 2017 (Date of the Most Recent Inspection). R. Alan Wilcox, MAI, SRA, inspected
the parent tract.
DESCRIPTION OF THE SCOPE OF THE APPRAISAL
The scope of the appraisal refers to the extent of the process in which data are collected,
confirmed, and reported. The scope is described to protect third parties whose reliance on an
appraisal report may be affected by this information. An appraiser determines the extent of the
work and of the report based on the significance of the appraisal problem. The appraiser is
responsible for describing the scope of the appraisal in the report.
Standards Rule 2-2(a)(vii), USPAP-2016-2017, requires the appraiser to “summarize the scope
of work used to develop the appraisal”. In this regard, pertinent to the extent to which the parent
tract and the remainder property have been identified and inspected, the type of market data
researched, and the type and extent of the analysis applied, the reader is advised to refer to the
appropriate portion of this report.
• Data Collection: The data utilized in this assignment was collected through a thorough
search of the public records of Collier County, Florida, interviews of local real estate
brokers and property owners, and information obtained from this firm’s appraisal office.
Furthermore, Patricia A. Wilcox, SRA, assisted in the collection of market data.
• Data Confirmation: The appraiser signing this report has independently confirmed the
market data that has been utilized in the development of the value estimates reported
herein. Furthermore, the appraiser signing this report has also physically inspected this
data.
• Data Reporting: The data utilized in this report has been presented in a data sheet
format for the reader’s review. Additional information has been retained in the
permanent files of the appraiser and is available upon request by the client.
HYPOTHETICAL CONDITIONS
To estimate the compensation due the property owner, the appraiser has estimated the “as is”
market value of the undivided fee simple interest in the parent tract before and after the
proposed acquisition. Accordingly, as of the date of value, January 11, 2017, the appraiser
has utilized the hypothetical condition assuming the proposed acquisition and the

proposed roadway improvements have been completed. A hypothetical condition is
contrary to what exists but is supposed for the purpose of analysis. Hypothetical conditions
assume conditions contrary to known facts about physical, legal, or economic characteristics of
the parent tract; or about conditions external to the property, such as market conditions or
trends; or about the integrity of data used in an analysis. A hypothetical condition may be used
in an assignment only if:
• Use of the hypothetical condition is clearly required for legal purposes, for purposes of
reasonable analysis, or for purposes of comparison;
• Use of the hypothetical condition results in a credible analysis; and
• The appraiser complies with the disclosure requirements set forth in USPAP for
hypothetical conditions.
OTHER LIMITING CONDITIONS
Statements of limiting conditions are included in a report for the appraiser’s protection, and to
inform and protect the client and other users of the report. For a complete copy of the typical
Assumptions and Limiting Conditions, which govern the appraisal process, please refer to the

MARKET AREA DATA
Definitions:
The following definitions were obtained from The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, Sixth
Edition as published by the Appraisal Institute:
1. Market area is defined as “the geographic region from which a majority of demand
comes and in which the majority of competition is located. Depending on the market, a
market area may be further subdivided into components such as primary, secondary, and
tertiary market areas, or the competitive market area may be distinguished from the
general market area.
2. Neighborhood is defined as “a group of complementary land uses; a congruous
grouping of inhabitants, buildings, or business enterprises.
3. Market area delineation is defined as the process of identifying the geographic area
where a majority of competition is located and from which a majority of demand is drawn.
4. Neighborhood boundaries is defined as the physical limits of a neighborhood; may be
delineated by natural, man-made, or geopolitical features.
5. Market analysis is defined as a process for examining the study of the supply and
demand in a specific area for a specific type of property.
6. Neighborhood life cycle is defined as the typical, but not necessarily universal, four-
stage cycle that describes the life pattern of neighborhoods and districts.
7. Real estate cycle is defined as the successive periods of expansion, peak, contraction,
and trough that characterize activity in a real estate market. Business and real estate
cycles do not generally move in tandem. Since real estate development and sales activity
are especially responsive to a downward movement in interest rates, increased activity in
real estate markets often heralds an economic recovery.
Market Area Analysis:
Social, economic, governmental, and environmental forces influence property values in the
vicinity of the subject property. As a result, they affect the value of that property. Therefore, to
conduct a thorough analysis, the appraiser must delineate the boundaries of the area of
influence. Although physical boundaries may be drawn, the most important boundaries are
those that influence property values.
The area of influence, commonly called a neighborhood or market area, can be defined as a
group of complementary land uses. To identify a market area’s boundaries, an appraiser
examines the subject property’s surroundings. The investigation begins with the subject
property and proceeds outward, identifying all relevant influences on the property’s value that
can be attributed to the property’s location.
Analyzing the market area helps to provide a framework, or context, in which the opinion of
property value is developed. The appraiser identifies the area of influence and establishes
potential limits within which the appraiser searches for data that can be used to apply the
approaches to value.
Market Area Delineation: A market area’s boundaries may be the physical area that exerts
relevant influences on a subject property's value. The boundaries may coincide with changes in
prevailing land use, occupant characteristics, or physical characteristics, such as structures,
street patterns, terrain, vegetation, and lot sizes. Because changes in natural or physical
Prepared for and property of Collier County Board of Commissioners. Page 27

Wilcox Appraisal Services, Inc.
features often coincide with the change from one market area to another, features such as
transportation arteries (highways, major streets, railroads), bodies of water (rivers, lakes,
streams), and changes in elevation (hills, mountains, cliffs, valleys) often constitute market area
boundaries.
The primary market area is defined geographically as the area in which a competitive property
would have a similar market area identification and general location appeal. The primary
market area, for purposes of this appraisal assignment, consists of those residential properties
zoned (E), Estates District, according to the Collier County Land Development Code located
along and near Golden Gate Boulevard east of Wilson Boulevard and west of Desoto Boulevard
in Collier County, Florida.
The secondary market area is defined economically to include those areas where a similarly
zoned property would be considered by the same basic profile of prospective purchasers as
generally competitive with the parent tract. The secondary market area, for purposes of this
appraisal assignment, is defined as those residential properties zoned (E), Estates District,
located in peripheral locations to the primary market area described above.
Stages of a Market Area’s Life Cycle: A market area’s life cycle usually consists of the
following stages:
1. Growth - a period during which the market area gains public favor and acceptance.
2. Stability - a period of equilibrium without marked gains or losses.
3. Decline - a period of diminishing demand.
4. Revitalization - a period of renewal, modernization, and increasing demand.
Although the stages describe a market area’s evolution in a general way, they should not be
overemphasized as providing guidelines to market area trends. Many market areas are stable
for very long periods of time, and decline is not necessarily imminent in all older market areas.
Unless caused by the advent of some specific external influence, for example, a new highway
that changes traffic patterns, decline may be at a barely perceptible rate and is subject to
interruption by changing use or revival of demand. Therefore, there is no definite life
expectancy for a market area. Moreover, the stages are not always sequential. At any time in
the cycle, major changes can occur which interrupt the order to the cycle's stages. For
example, a market area that is in a stage of growth may decline precipitously rather than
stabilize.
The primary market area is considered to be in the growth stage of its life cycle, as evidenced
by appreciating values, the planned improvements to the area’s infrastructure and the continued
development of residential properties within the market area.
The entire southwest Florida market area has suffered through the previous recession, with the
collapse of the residential and commercial construction industries, the lack of market financing,
and a high unemployment rate. Prior to the recession, the 2004 and 2005 Collier County real
estate market experienced tremendous appreciation. This appreciation was facilitated by rapid
growth and an over active speculative market.
However, the residential bubble collapsed in 2006 and the commercial market collapsed in
2007. Dramatically lower values, higher vacancies, and lower rents all contributed to the
collapse of the residential and commercial construction industry with limited demand for vacant
sites. Accordingly, the number of bank foreclosures and bank influenced sales significantly
affected pricing.

In 2010 and 2011 prices began to stabilize and recently prices have begun to appreciate.
Positive national economic growth and positive regional economic factors including climate,
beaches, tourism, demographics, the regional airport, and the continued growth of Florida Gulf
Coast University, steady job growth, and low mortgage rates have all contributed to this market
recovery.
General Primary Market Description: The Golden Gate Estates area began development in
the early 1960’s. Based on the Collier County tax rolls, there are approximately 31,000 platted
tracts of land located within the Golden Gate Estates area typically ranging in size from 1.14
acres to over 5 acres. Tracts smaller than 2.25 acres are considered to be legally non-
conforming tracts. The Golden Gate Estates area is composed of two separate sub-markets,
the Urban Estates area, which lies west of Collier Boulevard (CR 951), and the Rural Estates
area, which lies east of Collier Boulevard (CR 951).
The primary roadways that provide the main access to the immediately described primary
market area include:
• Golden Gate Boulevard;
• Collier Boulevard (CR 951);
• Wilson Boulevard;
• Everglades Boulevard; and
• Desoto Boulevard.
Available utilities within the primary market area include telephone, electrical service and
emergency services. Water must be typically provided by private well and wastewater must be
typically disposed of by a private septic tank and drain field combination.
Finally, the appraiser has included in the addendum of this report the “Quarterly Market Detail
for the 3rd Quarter 2016 for Single Family Homes in Collier County” produced by Florida
Realtors with data provided by Florida’s multiple listings services.
Trends and Conclusions: In conclusion, recognizing the above favorable locational factors and
the current growth stage of the primary market area as evidenced by appreciating values, the
planned improvements to the area’s infrastructure and the continued development of residential
properties within the market area, it is the appraiser’s opinion, that the primary market area should
expect continued economic development into the foreseeable future.

SITE DATA
Location: The parent tract is located on the south side of Golden Gate Boulevard E. between
Everglades Boulevard and Desoto Boulevard in Collier County, Naples, Florida. The parent
tract has a street address of 4030 Golden Gate Boulevard E., Naples, Florida 34120.
Size and Shape: The parent tract contains 1.17 acres of gross land area and is rectangular in
shape. Tracts that are smaller than 2.25 acres are considered to be legally non-conforming
tracts. Accordingly, the parent tract is considered to be a legally non-conforming tract.
Specifically, the parent tract has a northern property line along Golden Gate Boulevard E. that
measures 75 feet; with a depth there from along the eastern and western property lines that
measure 680 feet; and a rear, southern property line that measures 75 feet.
Roadway Frontage: The parent tract benefits from 75 feet of frontage along the southerly
right-of-way of Golden Gate Boulevard E. Golden Gate Boulevard E. is an arterial, undivided,
two lane, paved roadway.
Available Utilities: The available utilities to the parent tract include telephone, electrical
service and emergency services. Drinking water would be typically provided by a private well.
Wastewater would be typically disposed of by a private septic tank and drain field combination.
Exotic Vegetation and Wildlife: Current county, state, and federal regulations have
considered certain areas jurisdictional based upon vegetation classifications and/or wildlife
species. The appraiser is not an expert at vegetation groups or wildlife identification and has
not been provided a report prepared by such an expert. The parent tract is presumed to be
unencumbered by current county, state, and federal regulations related to certain areas being
considered to be jurisdictional based upon vegetation classifications and/or wildlife species.
Environmental Liabilities: Unless otherwise stated above or elsewhere in this report, the
existence of hazardous substances, including, without limitation, asbestos, polychlorinated
biphenyls, petroleum leakage, or agricultural chemicals, which may or may not be present on
the property, or other environmental conditions, were not called to the attention of nor did the
appraiser become aware of such during the property inspection. The appraiser is not qualified
to test such substance or conditions. If the presence of such substances, such as asbestos,
urea, formaldehyde foam insulation, or other hazardous substances or environmental
conditions, may affect the value of the property, the value estimated is predicated on the
assumption that there is no such condition on or in the property or in such proximity thereto that
it would cause a loss in value. No responsibility is assumed for any such conditions or for any
expertise or engineering knowledge required to discover them. The parent tract is assumed to
be unaffected by environmental liabilities. However, the reader is advised that no environmental
studies of the parent tract have been provided to the appraiser.
Elevation and Topography: The parent tract is a level tract covered with vegetation that is
partially cleared. The parent tract is situated within an area designated Flood Zone AH in the
Federal Emergency Management Flood Rate Maps, Map Number 12021C0435H, and dated
May 16, 2012. Flood Zone AH includes areas subject to inundation by 1-percent-annual-chance
shallow flooding (usually areas of ponding) where average depths are between one and three
feet. Base Flood Elevations (BFEs) derived from detailed hydraulic analyses are shown in this
zone. Mandatory flood insurance purchase requirements and floodplain management standards
apply.
Predominant Soil Classification(s): Based on the appraiser's review of the United States
Department of Agriculture’s Soil Survey of Collier County, Florida, the parent tract is located in
an area with predominant soil types that includes No. 4, Chobee, Limestone substratum, and
Prepared for and property of Collier County Board of Commissioners. Page 34
Reliance upon the appraisal for other uses is not warranted.
Wilcox Appraisal Services, Inc.
Dania mucks, depressional; and No. 21, Boca fine sand. It is important to bring to the reader’s
attention that the information reported above related to the predominant soil group(s) on or near
the parent tract, are general in nature, and may or may not apply specifically to the soil group(s)
located on the parent tract.
Easements and Restrictive Covenants: The parent tract is encumbered by a 50-foot wide
road right-of-way easement along the northern property line along the property’s existing
frontage to Golden Gate Boulevard E. The appraiser is not aware of any other easements or
restrictive covenants which might adversely affect the market value and development of the
parent tract before the taking. However, the reader is advised that the appraiser has not been
provided any title information.

COLLIER COUNTY FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION
The parent tract is designated Estates Designation on the Collier County Future Land Use
Map, within the Residential Estates Sub-district, and is further regulated by the Golden Gate
Area Master Plan.
The geographic framework for growth in Collier County is established by the Future Land Use
Element. As such, the Element is central to planning for: protection and management of natural
resources; public facilities; coastal and rural development; and, housing and community
character and design. The Element is also important to the County’s system of land
development regulations and to private property rights.
The purpose of the Future Land Use Element is to guide decision-making by Collier County on
regulatory, financial and programmatic matters pertaining to land use. Most directly, this
Element controls the location, type, intensity and timing of new or revised uses of land. The
land use strategy in this Element is closely coordinated with a strategy for provision of public
facilities as found in the Capital Improvements and Public Facility Elements of the
Comprehensive Plan, and with the strategies to protect and conserve natural resources as
found in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element.
The Golden Gate Area was previously subject to the regulations outlined in the County’s Growth
Management Plan. However, in 1991, the unique characteristics of the area resulted in
adoption of a separate Master Plan for Golden Gate. This Master Plan became a separate
Element of the County’s Growth Management Plan and supersedes Objective 1, Policy 1.1, and
Policy 1.3 of the County-Wide Future Land Use Element. All other Goals, Objectives, and
Policies contained in the Future Land Use Element and all other Elements are applicable. In
addition, the Golden Gate Area Future Land Use Map will be used instead of the County-Wide
Future Land Use Map.
The Estates Designation is characterized by low-density semi-rural residential lots with limited
opportunities for other land uses. Typical lots are 2.25 acres in size. However, there are some
legal non-conforming lots as small as 1.14 acres. As previously stated, the parent tract contains
1.17 acres of gross land area and is considered to be a legally non-conforming tract.
Intensifying residential density shall not be permitted.
The Estates Designation also accommodates future non-residential uses including:
• Conditional uses and essential services as defined in the Land Development Code;
• Parks, open space and recreational uses;
• Group Housing shall be permitted subject to the definitions and regulations as outlined in
the Collier County Land Development Code (Ordinance 91-102, adopted October 30,
1991 and consistent with locational requirements in Florida Statutes (Chapter 419.01
F.S.).
• Schools and school facilities in the Estates Designation north of I-75, and where feasible
and mutually acceptable, co-locate schools with other public facilities, such as parks,
libraries and community centers to the extent possible.
• Group Housing includes the following type facilities:
o Family Care Facility, if occupied by not more than six (6) persons shall be
permitted in residential areas;
o Group Care Facility;
o Care Units;
o Adult Congregate Living Facilities; and
o Nursing Homes.

ZONING CLASSIFICATION
The parent tract is zoned (E), Estates District, according to the Collier County Land
Development Code. The purpose and intent of the Estates District is to provide lands for low-
density residential development in a semi-rural to rural environment, with limited agricultural
activities. In addition to low-density residential development with limited agricultural activities,
the Estates District is also designed to accommodate as conditional uses, development that
provides services for and is compatible with the low-density residential, semi-rural and rural
character of the Estates District. The Estates District corresponds to and implements the
estates land use designation on the future land use map of the Collier County growth
management plan, although in limited instances, it may occur outside of the estates land use
designation. The maximum density permissible in the Estates District shall be consistent with
and not exceed the density permissible or permitted under the Estates District of the future land
use element of the growth management plan or as provided under the Golden Gate Master
Plan.
Permitted uses under this zoning classification are as follows:
• Single-family dwelling; and
• Family care facilities, subject to section 2.6.26.
• Essential services, as set forth in section 2.6.9.1.
Uses accessory to permitted uses are as follows:
• Uses and structures that are accessory and incidental to uses permitted as of right in the
Estates District;
• Field crops raised for the consumption by persons residing on the premises;
• Keeping of fowl or poultry, not to exceed 25 in total number subject to specific
conditions;
• Keeping of horses and livestock (except for hogs), not to exceed two such animals for
each acre and subject to specific conditions;
• One guesthouse, subject to section 2.6.14;
• Recreational facilities that serve as an integral part of a residential development and
have been designated, reviewed and approved on a site development plan or
preliminary subdivision plat. These facilities may include but are not limited to golf
course, clubhouse, community center building and tennis facilities, parks, playgrounds
and playfields; and
• Excavation and related processing and production that are subject to specific conditions.
Conditional uses in the Estates District that are subject to the standards and procedures
established in division 2.74 are as follows:
• Churches and other places of worship;
• Social and fraternal organizations;
• Child care centers and adult day care centers;
• Schools, public and private; and
• Group care facilities (category I); care units, nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and
continuing care retirement communities; all subject to section 2.6.26.
• Category II group care facilities and care units, subject to section 2.6.26 only when
tenancy of the person or persons under care would not:
o Constitute a direct threat to the health or safety of other individuals;
o Result in substantial physical damage to the property of others; or

IMPROVEMENT DATA
The parent tract is improved with a single-family home and associated site improvements. The
parent tract single-family home is setback approximately 150 feet from the existing right-of-way of
Golden Gate Boulevard E. before the taking. After the taking, the remainder property single-
family home is setback approximately 101 feet from the new right-of-way of Golden Gate
Boulevard E. The setback of the remainder property’s single-family home exceeds the minimum
zoning requirement and is within typical market setback standards. The only significant
improvements located within the proposed acquisition area consist of site improvements.
Building and site improvements located outside the proposed acquisition area are
considered to be unaffected. Accordingly, the appraiser has not estimated the
contributory value of the building and site improvements not taken.

HIGHEST AND BEST USE
Highest and best use is defined in The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, Sixth Edition, as
published by the Appraisal Institute as “the reasonably probable use of property that results in
the highest value. The four criteria that the highest and best use must meet are legal
permissibility, physical possibility, financial feasibility, and maximum productivity.”
Implied is that the determination of highest and best use results from the appraiser's judgment
and analytical skill, i.e., that the use determined from analysis represents an opinion, not a fact
to be found. In appraisal practice, the concept of highest and best use represents the premise
upon which value is based. In the context of most probable selling price (market value) another
appropriate term to reflect highest and best use would be most probable.
Highest and Best Use Analysis "As Vacant": This part of the highest and best use analysis
assumes that a parcel of land is vacant or that it can be made vacant through the demolition of
any improvements. The question to be answered in this part of the highest and best use
analysis is: if the land is (or was) vacant, what use should be made of it? That is, what type of
building or other improvement (if any) should be constructed on the land? The purpose of
estimating the highest and best use for land or a site is to identify the use that causes the land
to have value. This identification also helps to identify comparable properties. For highest and
best use of land as vacant, a use must meet four criteria. The four criteria are (1) legally
permissible, (2) physically possible (3) financially feasible, and (4) maximally productive.
In summary, the parent tract is legally, physically and financially capable of supporting potential
single-family residential development. Accordingly, it is the appraisers’ opinion that the highest
and best use of the parent tract “as though vacant” is estimated to be potential single-family
residential development.
Highest and Best Use Analysis "As Improved": The parent tract is improved with a single-
family home and associated site improvements. The highest and best use of the parent tract
“as improved” is estimated to be the continued use of the existing improvements as a single-
family home and associated site improvements.
The only significant improvements located within the proposed acquisition area consist of site
improvements. Building and site improvements located outside the proposed acquisition
area are considered to be unaffected. Accordingly, the appraiser has not estimated the
contributory value of the building and site improvements not taken.

The Appraisal Process
There are three standard approaches to property valuation:
1. Cost Approach
2. Sales Comparison Approach
3. Income Capitalization Approach
The Cost Approach requires the estimation of the reproduction cost new of the subject
improvements on current market price levels for labor and materials. The second component is
the estimate of accrued depreciation, or diminished utility, which is computed and subtracted
from the reproduction cost new to obtain an estimate of the depreciated reproduction costs of
the subject improvements. Finally, the land value, as obtained from a market comparison
approach, is added to obtain a value of the property as a whole. The underlying premise in the
Cost Approach is the theory of substitution, which states that an informed purchaser would pay
no more for a property than would be required to substitute of equal utility. This approach is
most applicable when the improvements are new and represent the highest and best use of the
subject, as though vacant. Conversely, when the improvements are old and adequate land
sales are not available, the Cost Approach tends to lose credence.
The Sales Comparison Approach, or Direct Comparison Approach, utilizes the past actions of
buyers and sellers for a similar class of property in a simulation model to project the most
probable selling price. This approach is also based upon the theory of substitution as well as
the concept of anticipation and contribution. This approach is most applicable when there has
been a sufficient amount of market transactions of similar properties to ascertain patterns of
behavior of the market participants. This valuation can only be as accurate as the quality of
information permits. If the comparative properties are quite dissimilar to the parent tract and
large adjustments are required, then this approach loses credibility.
The Income Approach is the valuation process which measures value as a function of the
present worth of the property's net income capacity. This approach is based upon the concept
of anticipation, contribution, and increasing and decreasing returns. This approach requires
market oriented income and expense data as well as current mortgage and equity rates (income
and yield). This approach is generally considered most reliable in the valuation of commercial
properties, as it best represents investor’s and lender’s expectations and actions in the market.
Each of the above three approaches will usually indicate different values. After all of the factors
of the three approaches have been carefully weighted, the indications of value are correlated to
arrive at a final estimate of value.

Identification of the Applicable Valuation Procedure(s): As previously stated, the only
significant improvements located within the proposed acquisition area consist of site
improvements. Building and site improvements located outside the proposed acquisition
area are considered to be unaffected. Accordingly, the appraiser has not estimated the
contributory value of the building and site improvements not taken.
Therefore, it is the appraiser’s opinion that the Market Approach to Value (Sales Comparison
Approach to Value) is the only applicable approach for this valuation assignment. The Sales
Comparison Approach to Value is considered applicable since an adequate number of similar
unimproved sales have recently occurred within the market area that may be utilized by the
appraiser in predicting typical buyer and seller behavior. The market data within the Sales
Comparison Approach to Value is considered sufficient and adequate to provide a reliable value
conclusion.
The Cost Approach to Value and the Income Capitalization Approach to Val ue are not considered
applicable for this appraisal assignment due to the fact that the parent tract is being valued as if
vacant land.

The Sales Comparison Approach to Value
INTRODUCTION
In the Sales Comparison Approach, market value is estimated by comparing the parent tract to
similar properties that have been sold recently or for which offers to purchase have been made.
A major premise of the Sales Comparison Approach is that the market value of a property is
directly related to the prices of comparable, competitive properties. A comparative analysis in
the Sales Comparison Approach focuses on differences in legal, physical, locational, and
economic characteristics of similar properties and the parent tract. Differences in the real
property rights conveyed, the dates of sale, the motivations of buyers and sellers, and the
financing arrangements for each sales transaction can also account for variations in prices.
The Sales Comparison Approach is applicable to all types of real property interest when there
are sufficient, recent, and reliable transactions to indicate value patterns in the market. For
property types that are bought and sold regularly, the Sales Comparison Approach often
provides a reliable indication of market value. When data is available, this is the most direct and
systematic approach to value. When the number of market transactions is insufficient, the
applicability of the Sales Comparison Approach may be limited. For example, the Sales
Comparison Approach is rarely applied to a special purpose property because few similar
properties may be sold in a given market. To value such properties, the Cost or Income
Capitalization Approach may be more appropriate and reliable. Nevertheless, data on sales
and offers for similar properties may establish broad limits for the value of the property being
appraised.
When economic conditions are changing rapidly, the usefulness of the Sales Comparison
Approach may be limited. For example, changes in income tax laws and zoning regulations, the
availability in cost of financing, or the supply of similar properties may cause the sale prices of
comparable properties with similar uses to be unreliable indicators of the value of the parent
tract. If economic changes occur abruptly, an appraiser may have difficulty finding a reliable
market basis on which to make adjustments for these changes. Rapid inflation or deflation can
also jeopardize the reliability of an appraiser’s adjustments and limit the usefulness of the Sales
Comparison Approach.
To apply the Sales Comparison Approach, an appraiser follows a systematic procedure:
A. Research the market to obtain information on sales transactions, listings, and offerings
to purchase properties similar to the parent tract.
B. Verify the information by confirming that the data obtained are factually accurate and
that the transactions reflect arm's length market considerations.
C. Select relevant units of comparison (e.g., dollars per acre, per square foot, or per
income multiplier) and develop a comparative analysis for each unit.
D. Compare the parent tract and comparable sale properties using the elements of
comparison and adjust the sale price of each comparable appropriately or eliminate the
property as a comparable.
E. Reconcile the various value indications produced from the analysis of comparables
into a single value indication or a range of values. An imprecise market may indicate a
range of values.

PRINCIPLES OF THE SALES COMPARISON APPROACH TO VALUE
The application of the Sales Comparison Approach is based on, and consistent with, the
operation of value influences and appraisal principles. The following appraisal principles are
generally considered most relevant to the Sales Comparison Approach:
A. Supply and Demand: Property prices are determined by the market and they result
from negotiations between buyers and sellers. Buyers constitute market demand and
the properties offered for sale constitute the supply. If the demand for a particular type
of property is high, prices tend to increase; if demand is low, prices tend to decline.
Shifts in the supply of improved properties frequently lag behind shifts in demand
because supply is created by time-consuming construction, while demand can change
rapidly.
B. Substitution: As applied in the Sales Comparison Approach, the principle of
substitution holds that the value of a property tends to be set by the price that would be
paid to acquire a substitute property of similar utility and desirability. This principle
implies that the reliability of the Sales Comparison Approach is diminished if substitute
properties are not available in the market.
C. Balance: The forces of supply and demand tend toward equilibrium, or balance, in the
market, but absolute equilibrium is almost never attained. The balance between supply
and demand continually changes. Due to shifts in population, purchasing power, and
consumer tastes and preferences, demand varies greatly over time. The construction of
new buildings and the demolition of old ones cause supply to vary as well. Another
aspect of this principle is that the relationship between land and improvements and the
relationship between a property and its environment must both be in balance for a
property to reflect its actual market value. If, for example, a property has too much land
in relation to its improvements or too many expensive amenities for its location, an
imbalance is created. Appraisers must watch for imbalances in the market and within
properties because they can cause the market to impute different prices to otherwise
comparable properties.
D. Externalities: Positive and negative external forces affect all types of property. A
period of economic development or economic depression can often influence property
values. An appraiser analyzes the market area of a parent tract to identity all significant
external influences. To a great extent, these external forces are reflected in the
adjustments made for property location. Two properties with identical physical
characteristics may have quite different market values if one of the properties has less
attractive surroundings. Factors such as the condition and lighting of streets, the
convenience of transportation facilities, the adequacy of police protection, and the
proximity to shopping and restaurant facilities vary with location. They must be
considered by the appraiser to determine if they have a positive or negative effect on the
value of the property being appraised.
PRESENTATION OF THE MARKET DATA:
The appraiser has reviewed economic data related to a number of sales and listings of
comparable unimproved properties located within the primary and secondary market areas.
Based on this research, the appraiser has assembled four competitive unimproved sales zoned
E, Estates District, transacted between August 2016 and December 2016 as being most
comparable to the parent tract. The data sheets for each of the sales used to estimate the
value of the parent tract are presented in the addendum of this report.

APPLICATION OF THE MARKET DATA
As previously stated, the appraiser has selected four competitive unimproved sales zoned E,
Estates District, transacted between August 2016 and December 2016 as being most
comparable to the parent tract. All sales have been compared to the parent tract and adjusted
for significant differences. Buyers, sellers, and active real estate agents have reported that
competitive unimproved properties within the market area are typically purchased based on a
price per acre of gross land area unit of value. Furthermore, the appraiser has applied the
proper sequence of adjustments including the following order: property rights conveyed;
financing; conditions of sale (motivation); market conditions (time); and other significant
locational and physical characteristics. The sales comparison grid is presented on the following

Explanation of Adjustments:
The following explanations of adjustments are presented:
• Adjustments for Property Rights Conveyed, Financing and Conditions of Sale
(Motivation): All sales utilized in direct comparison to the parent tract conveyed
property rights involving a fee simple estate and involved market financing or were all
cash to seller transactions. Also, all sales were verified to be typically motivated arm’s
length transactions. Accordingly, no adjustments were made for these three elements of
comparison.
• Adjustments for Marketing Conditions (Time): The date of sale identifies the market
conditions under which the comparable sale occurred. Changes in market conditions can
be caused by inflation, deflation, changes in supply and demand, and other factors.
Although the adjustment for market conditions is sometimes referred to as a "time
adjustment", the passing of time is not the cause of the adjustment, but rather, the
market conditions that may or may not have changed over the time period analyzed.
Changes in market conditions are usually measured as a percentage of a previous price.
An analysis of a resale of the sale property, or two (2) paired sales considered very
similar, can provide an indication of the rate of price change.
The appraiser has interviewed numerous buyers and sellers and real estate brokers,
who indicated market appreciation of property values since the date of the oldest sale
(August 2016). As previously reported in the market area analysis, the primary market
area is considered to be in the growth stage of its life cycle, as evidenced by
appreciating values, the planned improvements to the area’s infrastructure and the
continued development of residential properties within the market area.
The appraiser has utilized, as most appropriate, a 12.0% annual adjustment or a positive
1.0% per month adjustment to the previously adjusted sales prices for market conditions
(time) for the time frame between the oldest sale (August 2016) and the date of
appraisal (January 11, 2017). It should be understood that this market conditions
adjustment (time) is made to the “adjusted” sales prices (after adjustments for property
rights conveyed, financing and conditions of sale (motivation), if any. The following
market conditions (time) adjustment grid is provided on the next page:

Market Conditions (Time) Adjustment Grid:
• Adjustments for Location: All sales are competitive vacant residential sites located in
the primary Golden Gate Estates market area. Accordingly, all sales were considered to
have a similar overall location. However, the appraiser is aware that land sales located
furthest west toward Wilson Boulevard sell for greater prices per gross acre as
compared to land sales located furthest east. No specific location adjustment was made
to any sales. However, the specific locational characteristics of each sale are
considered in the appraiser’s final reconciliation of value.
• Adjustments for Road Frontage: The parent tract has road frontage along the south
side of Golden Gate Boulevard E. Golden Gate Boulevard E. is an arterial, undivided,
two lane, paved roadway. Sale No. 4 has similar road frontage along a busy roadway.
Therefore, no adjustment was made for this sale for this element of comparison.
Finally, Sale Nos. 1, 2 and 3 benefit from favorable road frontages along nearby less
travelled interior streets connecting to Golden Gate Boulevard E. Accordingly, these
three sales were given a negative 10% adjustment for superior road frontage.
• Adjustments for Size: All sales range in size from 1.14 to 2.73 acres, as compared to
the parent tract’s size of 1.17 acres. For many sale properties, sales of significant larger
size will typically sell for a lower unit value, as compared to sales of smaller size.
However, based on the analysis of the four land sales utilized, no size adjustment was
considered necessary.
• Adjustments for Land Use/Zoning and Utilities: All sales have similar land use
designations, zoning classifications and available utilities. Accordingly, no adjustments
were made for these elements of comparisons.

RECONCILIATION OF THE MARKET VALUE ESTIMATE:
In summary, the appraiser has selected four competitive unimproved sales zoned E, Estates
District, transacted between August 2016 and December 2016 for direct comparison to the
parent tract and which will provide the database for the application of the Sales Comparison
Approach. The indicated adjusted sales prices associated with these four sales range from a
low of $19,207 per gross acre for Sale No. 4 to a high of $23,605 per gross acre for Sale No. 3.
The arithmetical mean from this database was $20,551 per gross area.
In conclusion, the final estimate of value, after reviewing each of the four comparable sales
utilized in direct comparison to the parent tract is $20,500 per gross acre, which results in the
following estimate of value:
Market Value of the Parent Tract Land:
(1.17 Gross Acres) x ($20,500 Per Gross Acre) = $23,985
Rounded to, Say = $24,000*
* Contributory Value of the Site Improvements Taken: The parent tract is
improved with a single-family home and associated site improvements. The only significant
improvements that will be taken consist of site improvements including a portion of the gravel
drive, sod, landscaping, site clearing, fill and grading. Pertinent improvements to establish the
driveway connection(s) to Golden Gate Boulevard E. will be re-established by Collier County.
The appraiser has reviewed cost estimates from the Marshall Swift Manual and has consulted
with local contractors pertinent to the cost estimates for the significant site improvements taken.
Based on this research and the appraiser’s experience, the appraiser has estimated the
contributory market value of the site improvements taken to be $5,500. The following table is
provided to help the reader review the appraiser’s estimate of the contributory value for the site
improvements taken:

Summary of the Market Value of the Parent Tract:
Based on the aforementioned market data and analysis, the following summarizes the estimated
market value of the parent tract and the improvements taken:
Market Value of the Parent Tract:
Market Value of the Parent Tract Land = $24,000
Contributory Value of the Proposed Site Improvements Taken = $ 5,500
Total = $29,500*
* Building and site improvements located outside the proposed acquisition area are
considered to be unaffected. Accordingly, the appraiser has not estimated the
contributory value of the building and site improvements not taken.

Reconciliation of the Value Indications
In summary, the appraiser has obtained the following value indications from the valuation
approaches presented earlier in the appraisal report as follows:
The Cost Approach to Value: NA
The Sales Comparison Approach to Value: $29,500
The Income Capitalization Approach to Value: N/A
Reconciliation is the analysis of alternative conclusions to arrive at a value estimate.
Reconciliation is required because different value indications result from the use of more than
one valuation approach and within the application of a single approach.
Furthermore, the final value estimate should not be derived simply by applying technical and
quantitative procedures; rather, it should involve the exercise of judgment. The value
conclusion reached should be consistent with market thinking and the quantity of data used
should correspond to the amount of data the market considers relevant to the problem. An
appraiser shall produce a meaningful, defensible value estimate by considering three criteria:
appropriateness, accuracy, and quantity of evidence. Appropriateness relates to the use of
certain approaches and specific assignments. All data, calculations, estimates, and
adjustments are examined for accuracy. The quantity of evidence is analyzed to determine if
the conclusion reached is sufficiently supported in the market. Market data reflects past
phenomena, but an appraiser must rely on data to estimate future benefits and the present
value of these benefits. Nevertheless, the data available should not dictate the range of future
possibilities under consideration.
As previously stated, the only significant improvements located within the proposed acquisition
area consist of site improvements. Building and site improvements located outside the
proposed acquisition area are considered to be unaffected. Accordingly, the appraiser
has not estimated the contributory value of the building and site improvements not
taken.
Therefore, it was the appraiser’s opinion that the Market Approach to Value (Sales Comparison
Approach to Value) is the only applicable approach for this valuation assignment. The Sales
Comparison Approach to Value was considered applicable since an adequate number of similar
unimproved sales have recently occurred within the market area that may be utilized by the
appraiser in predicting typical buyer and seller behavior. The market data within the Sales
Comparison Approach to Value was considered sufficient and adequate to provide a reliable
value conclusion.
In summary, the appraiser has selected four competitive unimproved sales zoned E, Estates
District, transacted between August 2016 and December 2016 as being most comparable to the
parent tract. The market data within the Sales Comparison Approach to Value was considered
sufficient and adequate to provide a reliable value conclusion. Based on this market analysis,
the market value of the parent tract was estimated to have a unit value of $20,500 per gross
acre, resulting in a total indicated market value of $24,000, rounded (1.17 acres x $20,500 per
gross acre).
The Cost Approach to Value and the Income Capitalization Approach to Value were not
considered applicable for this appraisal assignment due to the fact that the parent tract is being
valued as if vacant land.

Next, the appraiser has reviewed cost estimates from the Marshall Swift Manual and has
consulted with local contractors pertinent to the cost estimates for the significant site
improvements taken. Based on this research and the appraiser’s experience, the appraiser has
estimated the contributory market value of the site improvements taken to be $5,500.
In conclusion, it is the appraiser’s opinion, that the market value of the parent tract, as of
January 11, 2017, is $29,500, allocated $24,000 to the land value and $5,500 to the
improvements.

Estimation of Reasonable Exposure Time:
In this portion of the analysis, the appraiser will provide the reader with a narrative overview
relating to the estimate of the reasonable exposure time or normal marketing period for the
parent tract. Exposure time is defined in The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, Sixth Edition
as “the estimated length of time that the property interest being appraised would have been
offered on the market prior to the hypothetical consummation of a sale at market value on the
effective date of the appraisal. Furthermore, exposure time is a retrospective opinion based on
an analysis of past events assuming a competitive and open market.
The appraiser has estimated a reasonable exposure time for the parent tract to be six to twelve
months, based on the appraiser’s research of market activity and available listings and
interviews with numerous market participants.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND IDENTIFICATION OF THE PROPOSED
PARTIAL ACQUISITION AREA
Project Description: The proposed perpetual, non-exclusive, road right-of-way, drainage,
utilities easement will be utilized for the widening of Golden Gate Boulevard E. from Wilson
Boulevard to DeSoto Boulevard. Plans included the widening of Golden Gate Boulevard E.
from two lanes to four lanes and will include capacity improvements such as adding turn lanes
to the Wilson Boulevard and Everglades Boulevard intersections. Other improvements include
traffic signal upgrades at three major intersections (Wilson, Everglades and DeSoto
Boulevards), on-road bike lanes and sidewalks on both sides of the roadway. This project will
also include the replacement of bridges over three canals, the Golden Gate, Miller and Faka
Union canals.
Description of the Proposed Acquisition Area: Parcel No. 471 RDUE is a perpetual, non-
exclusive, road right-of-way, drainage, and utilities easement that consist of a 49 foot wide strip
taking along the southerly right-of-way of Golden Gate Boulevard E. Parcel No. 471 RDUE
contains 0.08 acres (3,675 square feet) of gross land area and is rectangular in shape.
Specifically, the Parcel No. 471 RDUE has a northern property line along Golden Gate
Boulevard E. that measures 75 feet; with a depth there from along the eastern and western
property lines that measure 49 feet; and a rear, southern property line that measures 75 feet.
Legal Description of the Partial Acquisition Area: The legal description of the proposed
perpetual, non-exclusive, road right-of-way, drainage, and utilities easement acquisition area is
as follows:
Source: RWA Consulting, Inc., Naples, Florida.
VALUATION ANALYSIS OF THE PROPOSED PARTIAL ACQUISITION AREA
Value of the Property Rights Taken: The appraiser has previously estimated the market
value of the fee simple interest of the parent tract to have a unit value of $20,500 per gross
acre. This value estimate was obtained through the application of the Sales Comparison
Approach to Value. Since the part taken is to be valued as part of the whole, this value will
serve as a basis of value for the valuation of the property rights taken.
As previously stated, Parcel No. 471 RDUE is a perpetual easement for road right-of-way,
drainage, utilities and maintenance of these uses. Accordingly, the proposed easement will
essentially take the entire bundle of rights, with the owner only allowed to utilize the proposed
easement area for density calculations.
Prepared for and property of Collier County Board of Commissioners. Page 58
Reliance upon the appraisal for other uses is not warranted.
Wilcox Appraisal Services, Inc.
Since the proposed taking is an easement versus a fee simple taking, the bundle of rights taken
is something less than 100%. However, since the proposed easement precludes almost all
practical uses by the owner, the appraiser has estimated Parcel No. 471 RDUE will include 99%
of the fee simple value resulting in an estimated overall unit value of $20,295 per acre (0.99 x
$20,500). Therefore, the value of the property rights taken is estimated as follows:
Market Value of the of the Property Rights Taken:
(0.08 Gross Acres) x ($20,295 Per Acre) = $1,624
Rounded to, Say = $1,600
Value of the Improvements Taken: The only significant improvements that will be taken
consist of site improvements including a portion of the gravel drive, sod, landscaping, site
clearing, fill and grading. Pertinent improvements to establish the driveway connection(s) to
Golden Gate Boulevard E. will be re-established by Collier County.
The appraiser has reviewed cost estimates from the Marshall Swift Manual and has consulted
with local contractors pertinent to the cost estimates for the significant site improvements taken.
Based on this research and the appraiser’s experience, the appraiser has estimated the
contributory market value of the site improvements taken to be $5,500. The following table is
provided to help the reader review the appraiser’s estimate of the contributory value for the site
improvements taken:

VALUATION ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINDER PROPERTY "AS SEVERED"
The remainder property shall contain 1.17 acres of gross land area and is still rectangular in
shape and the same size and shape as before the taking, since the proposed property rights to
be acquired involve a perpetual easement for road right-of-way, drainage, utilities and
maintenance of these uses. However, the remainder property will be encumbered by an
additional perpetual easement located along the southerly existing right-of-way of Golden Gate
Boulevard E. containing 0.08 acres of gross land area. The remainder property’s overall
access, availability to utilities, topography, land use designation, and zoning are unchanged.
The highest and best use of the remainder property “as vacant” is estimated to remain the same
as before the taking, potential single-family residential development. Furthermore, the
remainder property’s improvements are the same as before the taking, except for the taking of
some site improvements. The highest and best use of the remainder property “as improved” is
estimated to remain the same as before the taking, the continued use of the existing
improvements as a single-family home and associated site improvements.
Finally, the remainder property is not considered to be damaged due to the taking of the
proposed acquisition area.
Most competitive Golden Gate Estates properties are encumbered by 30 to 50 foot wide road
right-of-way easements along the property’s adjacent roadway frontages. Prior to the taking,
the parent tract was encumbered by a 50-foot wide road right-of-way easement along the
southern property line and along the property’s existing frontage to Golden Gate Boulevard E.
As stated above, after the taking, the remainder property will be encumbered by an additional
perpetual easement containing 0.08 acres of gross land area located along the southerly
existing right-of-way of Golden Gate Boulevard E.
Although the appraiser has recognized that most buyers, sellers, and active real estate agents
have reported that competitive unimproved Golden Gate Estate properties within the market
area are typically purchased based on a price per acre of gross land area unit of value, the
appraiser has also recognized the proposed additional easement area precludes almost all
practical uses by the owner. Therefore, the appraiser has estimated Parcel No. 471 RDUE will
take 99% of the fee simple value. Accordingly, the appraiser has estimated the residual value
to proposed additional easement area to be 1% of the fee simple value resulting in an estimated
unit value of $205 per acre (0.01 x $20,500) for this portion of the property. The appraiser has
previously estimated the market value of the undivided fee simple interest in the parent tract to
have unit value of $20,500 per gross acre. The remainder land area exclusive of the additional
encumbered area taking, containing 1.09 acres (1.17 – 0.08), is estimated to have the same unit
value, as before the taking.
Prepared for and property of Collier County Board of Commissioners. Page 60
Reliance upon the appraisal for other uses is not warranted.
Wilcox Appraisal Services, Inc.
Based on the aforementioned data and analysis, the following sets forth the appraiser’s
estimate of the remainder property as follows:
Market Value of the of the Remainder Property:
Land Area Exclusive of the Additional Encumbered Area Taken:
(1.09 Gross Acres) x ($20,500 Per Acre) = $22,345
Rounded up to, Say = $22,400
Additional Encumbered Area Taken:
(0.08 Gross Acres) x ($205 Per Acre) = $ 16
Rounded to, Say = $ 0
Total = $22,400
SEVERANCE DAMAGES TO THE REMAINDER PROPERTY
Technically, severance damages are calculated as the negative difference between the value of
the remainder property, as part of the whole, and the value of the remainder property, as
severed. When the value of the remainder property, as severed, is less than the value of the
remainder property, as part of the whole, the difference is the actual measurement of the
damages to the remainder property. When the value of the remainder property, as severed, is
greater than the value of the remainder property, as part of the whole, the difference is not
damage but is considered a benefit.
The appraiser has estimated the remainder property, as part of the whole, to be $22,400, which
represents the value of the whole ($29,500), less the value of the part taken ($7,100). The
appraiser has also estimated the market value of the remainder property as severed to be
$22,400. Therefore, these value estimates indicate no severance damages.
COST TO CURE ANALYSIS
Based on the analysis of the remainder property, it is the appraiser’s opinion, that there is no net
cost to cure.
SPECIAL BENEFITS
Based on the analysis of the remainder property, it is the appraiser’s opinion, that there are no
special benefits.
