Agenda 06/10/2014 Item #17B 6/10/2014 17.B. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to consider an Ordinance amending Ordinance No. 2004-41, as amended, the Collier County Land Development Code, which established the comprehensive zoning regulations for the unincorporated area of Collier County, Florida by amending the appropriate zoning atlas map or maps by changing the zoning classification of the herein described real property from a C-1 zoning district to a C-4 zoning district for the project known as Walgreens Naples Rezone located on Pine Ridge Road,east of Airport-Pulling Road in Section 12,Township 49 South,Range 25 East, Collier County, Florida, consisting of 1.79± acres; and by providing an effective date [RZ- PL20130001302). OBJECTIVE: To have the Board of County Commissioners (BCC)review staff's findings and recommendations along with the recommendations of the Collier County Planning Commission (CCPC) regarding the above referenced petition and render a decision regarding this Rezone petition; and ensure the project is in harmony with all the applicable codes and regulations in order to ensure that the community's interests are maintained. CONSIDERATIONS: The petitioner is requesting a rezone of the subject 1.79± acre site from the Commercial Professional and General Office (C-1)zoning districts to a General Commercial (C-4) zoning district. The site consists of a previously developed commercial tract of land currently used by the YMCA to provide children's daycare services. If this rezone petition is approved, the subject property would be eligible to be developed with all permitted C-4 uses. The currently proposed end user is a Walgreens Pharmacy. The subject 1.79± acre parcel is located at the northeast corner of the Pine Ridge Road (C.R. 896)/Museum Drive intersection, on the south side of YMCA Road, approximately 400 feet east of Airport-Pulling Road(C.R. 31),between the YMCA and Sports Authority. FISCAL IMPACT: The County collects impact fees prior to the issuance of building permits to help offset the impacts of each new development on public facilities. These impact fees are used to fund projects identified in the Capital Improvement Element of the Growth Management Plan as needed to maintain adopted Level of Service (LOS) for public facilities. Additionally, in order to meet the requirements of concurrency management, the developer of every local development order approved by Collier County is required to pay a portion of the estimated Transportation Impact Fees associated with the project in accordance with Chapter 74 of the Collier County Code of Laws and Ordinances. Other fees collected prior to issuance of a building permit include building permit review fees. Finally, additional revenue is generated by application of ad valorem tax rates, and that revenue is directly related to the value of the improvements. Please note that impact fees and taxes collected were not included in the criteria used by staff and the Planning Commission to analyze this petition. GROWTH MANAGEMENT PLAN(GMP)IMPACT: Future Land Use Element(FLUE): The 1.79-acre subject property is designated Urban (Urban — Commercial District, Mixed Use Activity Center Subdistrict (#13), as identified on the Countywide Future Land Use Map of the Growth Management Plan. The Mixed Use Activity Center Subdistrict allows residential uses, RPUD-PL20130001302: Walgreens Naples Rezone Page 1 of 4 Revised: May 9,2014,May 27,2014 BCC Hearing Date June 10,2014 Packet Page-2184- 6/10/201417.8. mixed use developments, the full array of commercial uses, essential services, and other non- residential uses. The proposed rezone is consistent with the GMP, and further detail is provided in the attached staff report. Therefore, zoning staff recommends that the petition be found consistent with the goals, objective and policies of the overall GMP. COLLIER COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION (CCPC) RECOMMENDATION: The CCPC heard this petition on May 1, 2014. By a unanimous vote (7 to 0) recommended forwarding this petition to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) with a recommendation of approval subject to the following limitation: 1) The building height is limited to 50'0"actual height. These revisions have been incorporated into the Rezone document that is included in the draft ordinance. No correspondence in opposition to this petition has been submitted for the current proposal; no one spoke at the CCPC hearing voicing opposition to the project and the CCPC vote was unanimous. Therefore,this petition can be placed on the Summary Agenda. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This is a site specific rezone from the Commercial Professional and General Office (C-1) Zoning District to the General Commercial (C-4) Zoning District for a project to be known as the Walgreens Naples Rezone. The burden falls upon the applicant to prove that the proposed rezone is consistent with all the criteria set forth below. The burden then shifts to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC), should it consider denying the rezone,to determine that such denial would not be arbitrary, discriminatory or unreasonable. This would be accomplished by finding that the proposal does not meet one or more of the listed criteria below. Criteria for Straight Rezones 1. Will the proposed change be consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies and future land use map and the elements of the Growth Management Plan? 2. Will the proposed rezone be appropriate considering the existing land use pattern? 3. Would the proposed rezone result in the possible creation of an isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts? 4. Are the existing district boundaries illogically drawn in relation to existing conditions on the property proposed for change? 5. Do changed or changing conditions make the passage of the proposed amendment necessary? RPUD-PL20130001302: Walgreens Naples Rezone Page 2 of 4 Revised: May 9,2014,May 27,2014 BCC Hearing Date June 10,2014 Packet Page-2185- 6/10/2014 17.B. 6. Will the proposed change adversely influence living conditions in the neighborhood? 7. Will the proposed change create or excessively increase traffic congestion or create types of traffic deemed incompatible with surrounding land uses, because of peak volumes or projected types of vehicular traffic, including activity during construction phases of the development, or otherwise affect public safety? 8. Will the proposed change create a drainage problem? 9. Will the proposed change seriously reduce light and air to adjacent areas? 10. Will the proposed change adversely affect property values in the adjacent area? 11. Will the proposed change be a deterrent to the improvement or development of adjacent property in accordance with existing regulations? 12. Will the proposed change constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual owner as contrasted with the public welfare? 13. Are there substantial reasons why the property cannot be used in accordance with existing zoning? 14. Is the change suggested out of scale with the needs of the neighborhood or the County? 15. Consider: Whether it is impossible to find other adequate sites in the county for the proposed use in districts already permitting such use. 16. Consider: The physical characteristics of the property and the degree of site alteration which would be required to make the property usable for any of the range of potential uses under the proposed zoning classification. 17. What is the impact of development on the availability of adequate public facilities and services consistent with the levels of service adopted in the Collier County Growth Management Plan and as defined and implemented through the Collier County Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance [Code ch.106, art.II], as amended? 18. Are there other factors, standards, or criteria relating to this rezone request that the Board of County Commissioners shall deem important in the protection of the public health, safety, and welfare? The proposed Ordinance was prepared by the County Attorney's Office and approved as to form and legality for Board action. An affirmative vote of four is necessary for Board approval-HFAC RPUD-PL20130001302: Walgreens Naples Rezone Page 3 of 4 Revised: May 9,2014,May 27,2014 BCC Hearing Date June 10,2014 Packet Page-2186- 6/10/2014 17.B.

PURPOSE/DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT: The subject property consists of a previously developed commercial tract of land currently used by the YMCA to provide children's daycare services. As noted above the development is zoned Commercial Professional and General Office (C-1)and located in Mixed Use Activity Center 13. The petitioner is requesting to rezone the subject property from C-1 to C-4. If this rezone petition is approved, the subject property would be eligible to be developed with all permitted C-4 uses. The currently proposed end user is a Walgreens Pharmacy. SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING: SURROUNDING: North: A commercial professional and general office development with a zoning designation of C-1 (Commercial Professional and General Office) zoning district. East: A developed YMCA with a zoning designation of CF (Community Facility) zoning designation. South: The Pine Ridge Road Right of Way then a developed commercial retail center known as Carillon Center with a zoning designation of PUD (Planned Unit Development). West: The Museum Drive Right of Way then a developed commercial retail center known as Sports Authority with a zoning designation of C-4 (General Commercial). (See aerial photo on following page).

The Mixed Use Activity Center Subdistrict allows residential uses, mixed use developments, the full array of commercial uses, essential services, and other non- residential uses. The Mixed-Use Activity Center (MUAC) Subdistrict is conceptually "designed to concentrate almost all new commercial zoning in locations where traffic impacts can readily be accommodated, to avoid strip and disorganized patterns of commercial development, and to create focal points within the community” and "are intended to be mixed-use in character ...developed at a human scale ...pedestrian oriented, and ... interconnected with abutting projects — whether commercial or residential. Street, pedestrian pathway and bike lane interconnections with abutting properties, where possible and practical, are encouraged. " "Allowable lands uses in Mixed-Use Activity Centers include the full array of commercial uses, residential uses [at a maximum density (at this location) of 16 dwelling units/acre], institutional uses, hotel/motel uses at a maximum density of 26 units per acre, community facilities, and other non-residential land uses as generally allowed in the Urban designation. The actual mix of the various land uses shall be determined during the rezoning process based on consideration of the RZ-PL20130001302,Walgreens Naples Rezone April 10, 2014(revised :April 17,2014) Paaa 4 of 13 Packet Page-2193- 6/10/2014 17.B. factors listed below." Each factor is listed below, followed by staff comments/analysis in .-� [bracketed bold text]. a. Rezones within Mixed Use Activity Centers are encouraged to be in the form of a Planned Unit Development. There shall be no minimum acreage limitation for such Planned Unit Developments except requests for rezoning must meet the requirements for rezoning in the Land Development Code. [This petition is not submitted as a PUD. Due to its small size, PUD zoning does not seem warranted/offers no or minimal benefit.] b. The amount, type and location of existing zoned commercial land, and developed commercial uses, within the Mixed Use Activity Center and within two road miles of Mixed Use Activity Center. [While the petitioner did not directly address this criterion in the application a map was provided that depicts commercial zoning within 2+ miles of the site, a list of undeveloped commercial properties zoned C-3 and C-4 within those 2+ miles, and a general analysis. This information was deemed adequate for staff's review.] c. Market demand and service area for the proposed commercial land uses to be used as a guide to explore the feasibility of the requested land uses. [While the petitioner did not directly address this criterion in the application a map was provided that depicts commercial zoning within 2+ miles of the site, a list of undeveloped commercial properties zoned C-3 and C-4 within those 2+ miles, and a general analysis. This information was deemed adequate for staff's review.] d. Existing patterns of land use within the Mixed Use Activity Center and within two radial miles. [The petitioner did not directly address this criterion but did provide a map depicting commercial zoning and PUD zoning (residential, commercial, mixed use) within 2+ miles of the site. Again this information was deemed adequate for staff's review.] e. Adequacy of infrastructure capacity, particularly roads. [Comprehensive Planning staff defers to Transportation Planning staff to evaluate the project for traffic impacts and determine available capacity on affected roadways.] f. Compatibility of the proposed development with, and adequacy of buffering for, adjoining properties. [The requested C-4 zoning district allows a maximum building height of 75 feet, surrounding properties are developed with one-story structures containing commercial and institutional uses, and the intent of the Mixed Use Activity Center is for it to be "developed at a human scale." However, it is also noted that the developable area of this site is limited, and increased building height typically yields more stories which translates into greater parking requirements— thus creating a self-limiting circumstance." The proposed development will be subject to required design standards including but not limited to buffering at time of subsequent development orders, specifically Site Development Plan (SDP).] g. Natural or man-made constraints. [The site is constrained by frontage on three streets and a preserve area.] RZ-PL20130001302,Walgreens Naples Rezone April 10,2014(revised :April 17,2014) Paae 5 of 13 Packet Page-2194- 6/10/2014 17.B. h. Rezoning criteria identified in the Land Development Code. [Comprehensive Planning staff defers to Zoning Services staff for this review.] i. Conformance with Access Management Plan provisions for Mixed Use Activity Centers contained in the Land Development Code. [Comprehensive Planning staff defers to Transportation Planning staff for this review, but notes that no access is proposed to Pine Ridge Road.] j. Coordinated traffic flow on-site, as may be demonstrated by a Traffic Impact Analysis, and a site plan/master plan indicating on-site traffic movements, access point location and type, median opening locations and type on the abutting roadway(s), location of traffic signals on the abutting roadway(s), and internal and external vehicular and pedestrian interconnections. [Comprehensive Planning staff defers to Transportation Planning staff for this review.] k. Interconnection(s) for pedestrian, bicycles and motor vehicles with existing and future adjacent projects. [The site abuts roads on three sides; the side abutting YMCA Road is impeded by on-site preserve and drainage area. It is anticipated that vehicular and pedestrian access will be located on Museum Drive, and a vehicular interconnection to the YMCA site adjacent to the east will be provided.] 1. Conformance with architectural design standards as identified in the Land Development Code. [Zoning Services staff will provide a detailed review of the required design standards during review of subsequent development orders, e.g. Site Development Plan]. Future Land Use Element(FLUE) Policy 5.4 requires new developments to be compatible with, and complementary to, surrounding land uses. Comprehensive Planning leaves further determination of compatibility to Zoning Services staff as part of their review of the petition in its entirety. In order to promote smart growth policies, and adhere to the existing development character of Collier County, the following FLUE policies shall be implemented for new development and redevelopment projects, where applicable. Each policy is followed by staff analysis in [bracketed bold text]. Objective 7: In an effort to support the Dover, Kohl & Partners publication, Toward Better Places: The Community Character Plan for Collier County, Florida, promote smart growth policies, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and adhere to the existing development character of Collier County, the following policies shall be implemented for new development and redevelopment projects, where applicable. Policy 7.1: The County shall encourage developers and property owners to connect their properties to fronting collector and arterial roads, except where no such connection can be made without violating intersection spacing requirements of the Land Development Code. [The subject site abuts Pine Ridge Road (CR 896), an arterial road as identified in the Transportation Element. However, the site is relatively close to the Pine Ridge Road/Airport-Pulling Road intersection and abuts a local road connected to Pine Ridge Road.] RZ-PL20130001302,Walgreens Naples Rezone April 10,2014(revised :April 17,2014) Page 6 of 13 Packet Page-2195- 6/10/2014 17.B. Policy 7.2: The County shall encourage internal accesses or loop roads in an effort to help reduce vehicle congestion on nearby collector and arterial roads and minimize the need for traffic signals. [As a non-PUD rezoning petition, a master plan is not required. The site size is not conducive to subdivision and provision of roads, rather a single development containing a parking lot with drive aisles.] Policy 7.3: All new and existing developments shall be encouraged to connect their local streets and/or interconnection points with adjoining neighborhoods or other developments regardless of land use type. The interconnection of local streets between developments is also addressed in Policy 9.3 of the Transportation Element. [The site abuts roads on three sides; the side abutting YMCA Road is impeded by on-site preserve and drainage area. It is anticipated that vehicular and pedestrian access will be located on Museum Drive, and a vehicular interconnection to the YMCA site adjacent to the east will be provided.] Based upon the above analysis, Comprehensive Planning staff finds the proposed rezone petition to be consistent with the Future Land Use Element. Transportation Element: The Transportation Services Department has reviewed the Traffic Impact Statement (TIS) and has determined that the adjacent roadway network has sufficient capacity to accommodate this project within the 5 year planning period. Therefore, the subject application can be found consistent with Policy 5.1 of the Transportation Element of the GMP. Conservation & Coastal Management Element (CCME): Staff found this project to be consistent with the Conservation& Coastal Management Element (CCME). Based on the above analysis, Comprehensive Planning staff finds the proposed rezone consistent with the Future Land Use Element(FLUE)of the Growth Management Plan(GMP). ANALYSIS: Staff completed a comprehensive evaluation of this land use petition including the criteria upon which a recommendation must be based, specifically noted in LDC Subsection 10.02.08. F., Nature of Requirements of Planning Commission Report (referred to as "Rezone Findings"), which establish the legal bases to support the CCPC's recommendation. The CCPC uses these same criteria as the basis for their recommendation to the BCC (Board of Collier County Commissioners), who in turn use the criteria to support their action on the rezoning request. An evaluation relative to these subsections is discussed below, under the heading "Rezone Findings." In addition, staff offers the following analyses: Transportation Review: Transportation Department Staff has reviewed the petition for compliance with the GMP and the LDC and is recommending approval. Staff notes that primary access for the development will be from Museum Road and an interconnection to the YMCA development to the east will be provided at time of next development order RZ-PL20130001302,Walgreens Naples Rezone April 10,2014(revised :April 17,2014) Pane 7 of 13 Packet Page-2196- 6/10/2014 17.B. Environmental Review: This project does not require Environmental Advisory Council (EAC) review, as this project did not meet the EAC scope of land development project reviews as identified in Section 2-1193 of the Collier County Codes of Laws and Ordinances. The preserves for this development were previously determined at time of plat development as part of the "Airport Road Subdivision". Potential preserve impacts have not been reviewed or approved as part of this rezone petition. Utility Review: Utilities staff reviewed and approved this petition. The petitioner's "Statement of Utility Provisions" indicates water service and sewage disposal will be provided by the Collier County utility system. Planning & Zoning Review: As previously mentioned, the subject property consists of a previously developed commercial tract of land currently used by the YMCA to provide children's daycare services. As noted above the development is zoned Commercial Professional and General Office(C-1) and located in Mixed Use Activity Center 13. The subject parcel is located between the existing C-4 zoning district containing the current Sports Authority retail use to the west and the CF zoning district containing the current YMCA facility to the east. To the north is a C-1 zoning district containing a professional and general office park use and to the south is the Pine Ridge Road Right of Way and then the Carillon Center retail use that has a PUD zoning designation. The Commercial Intermediate district (C-4) purpose and intent is quoted [in part] from LDC Section 2.2.14.1: "The purpose and intent of the C-4 district is to provide the opportunity for the most diverse types of commercial activities delivering goods and services, including entertainment and recreational attractions, at a larger scale than the C-1 through C-3 districts. As such, all of the uses permitted in the C-1 through C-3 districts are also permitted in the C-4 district. The outside storage of merchandise and equipment is prohibited, except to the extent that it is associated with the commercial activity conducted on-site such as, but not limited to, automobile sales, marine vessels, and the renting and leasing of equipment. Activity centers are suitable locations for the uses permitted by the C-4 district because most activity centers are located at the intersection of arterial roads. Therefore the uses in the C-4 district can most be sustained by the transportation network of major roads. The C-4 district is permitted in accordance with the locational criteria for uses and the goals, objectives, and policies as identified in the future land use element of the Collier County GMP " This project should "provide an opportunity for a diverse type of commercial activity delivering goods and services" to the nearby commercial developments and nearby residential developments located to the north, south and east along Pine Ridge Road and Airport Pulling Road. Therefore, this petition should be in compliance with the purpose and intent of the C-4 zoning district. Approval of this petition should not be contrary to the requirements of the LDC, and the uses allowable in the C-4 zoning district should not be out of character with the neighborhood. To date,no letters of objection or support have been received. RZ-PL20130001302,Walgreens Naples Rezone April 10,2014(revised :April 17,2014) Paae 8 of 13 Packet Page-2197- 6/10/2014 17.B. REZONE FINDINGS: LDC Subsection 10.02.08. F. states, "When pertaining to the rezoning of land, the report and recommendations of the Planning Commission to the Board of County Commissioners...shall show that the Planning Commission has studied and considered proposed change in relation to the following findings when applicable" (The criteria is italicized, Staff's responses to these criteria are provided in regular font): 1. Whether the proposed change will be consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies and future land use map and the elements of the GMP. The Comprehensive Planning Department has indicated that the proposed rezone is consistent with all applicable elements of the Future Land Use Element (FLUE) of the Growth Management Plan (GMP). 2. The existing land use pattern. The subject site is already zoned commercial. As described in the "Surrounding Land Use and Zoning" portion of this report, the neighborhood's existing land use pattern is characterized by developed commercial land to the north, west and south; as well as developed community facility land to the east. The commercial uses proposed in this petition should not create incompatibility issues. 3. The possible creation of an isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts. As previously stated, the subject site is already zoned commercial. It is not an isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts. 4. Whether existing district boundaries are illogically drawn in relation to existing conditions on the property proposed for change. As shown on the zoning map on page two of this staff report, the existing district boundaries are logically drawn. 5. Whether changed or changing conditions make the passage of the proposed amendment necessary. According to information provided by the petitioner,this rezone request is in response to a proposed sale of the property by the YMCA to help rebuild their facilities damaged by a fire in the fall of 2013. The proceeds from the proposed sale of the property will be used to fund the rebuilding and expansion efforts by the YMCA that include expanded services and facilities to better serve the public. The proposed Walgreens Pharmacy use requires the C-4 zoning district/designation. 6. Whether the proposed change will adversely influence living conditions in the neighborhood. The proposed change from C-1 to C-4 will permit a broader range of commercial uses complementary to surrounding developed parcels. Therefore, staff is of the opinion that the proposed change will not adversely influence living conditions in the neighborhood. RZ-PL20130001302,Walgreens Naples Rezone April 10,2014(revised :April 17,2014) Pape 9 of 13 Packet Page-2198- 6/10/2014 17.B. • 7. Whether the proposed change will create or excessively increase traffic congestion or create types of traffic deemed incompatible with surrounding land uses, because of peak volumes or ■••■ projected types of vehicular traffic, including activity during construction phases of the development, or otherwise affect public safety. The roadway infrastructure has adequate capacity to serve the project at this time. This project was evaluated for GMP consistency as shown in that section of this report. In addition,the development must comply with all other applicable concurrency management regulations when development approvals are sought. 8. Whether the proposed change will create a drainage problem. The proposed development will not create a drainage problem because the project is subject to the requirements of Collier County and the South Florida Water Management District. Confirmation of staff's assessment that the project possesses an existing South Florida District permit and qualifies for discharge rate exemption as provided by the GMP will be a companion item at time of BCC hearing. 9. Whether the proposed change will seriously reduce light and air to adjacent areas. This development should not significantly reduce light and air to adjacent areas; thus the development proposed, if approved, should not negatively affect light and air permeation into adjacent areas. 10. Whether the proposed change would adversely affect property values in the adjacent area. The subject site is already zoned commercial and surrounded by other commercial and institutional uses. Therefore, Staff is of the opinion this rezone will not adversely impact property values in the adjacent area. 11. Whether the proposed change will be a deterrent to the improvement or development of adjacent property in accordance with existing regulations. Properties to the west, east, north and south of this property are already developed as previously noted. The basic premise underlying all of the development standards in the LDC is that sound application, when combined with the site development plan approval process and/or subdivision process, gives reasonable assurance that a change in zoning will not result in deterrence to improvement or development of adjacent property. Therefore, the proposed rezone should not be a deterrent to the improvement of adjacent properties. 12. Whether the proposed change will constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual owner as contrasted with the public welfare. The proposed development complies with the GMP, a public policy statement supporting Zoning actions when they are consistent with said Comprehensive Plan. In light of this fact, the proposed change does not constitute a grant of special privilege. Consistency with the FLUE is further RZ-PL20130001302,Walgreens Naples Rezone April 10,2014(revised :April 17,2014) Page 10 of 13 Packet Page-2199- 6/10/2014 17.B. determined to be a public welfare relationship because actions consistent with plans are in the public interest. 13. Whether there are substantial reasons why the property cannot be used in accordance with existing zoning. The subject property could be developed in accordance with existing zoning. However, as noted above, this rezone request is needed for the proposed sale of the property by the YMCA to assist in their rebuilding effort to address the fall 2013 fire damage to the facility. The proposed end use is a Walgreens Pharmacy which requires the C-4 zoning district/designation. The C-4 designation will permit a broader range of commercial uses complementary to surrounding developed parcels, and also be consistent with the activity center provisions of the GMP. 14. Whether the change suggested is out of scale with the needs of the neighborhood or the county. As previously stated, the subject site is already zoned commercial. In addition, the proposed development complies with the GMP requirements for the uses proposed. The GMP is a policy statement which has evaluated the scale, density and intensity of land uses deemed to be acceptable throughout Collier County. Staff is of the opinion that the zoning district will ensure that the project is not out of scale with the needs of the community. 15. Whether it is impossible to find other adequate sites in the county for the proposed use in districts already permitting such use. There may be other sites in the County that could accommodate the uses proposed; however,this is not the determining factor when evaluating the appropriateness of a zoning decision. The petition was reviewed on its own merit for compliance with the GMP and the LDC; and staff does not review other sites in conjunction with a specific petition. 16. The physical characteristics of the property and the degree of site alteration which would be required to make the property usable for any of the range of potential uses under the proposed zoning classification. According to information provided by the applicant, the subject site will be processed as a site development plan currently projected to be a Walgreens Pharmacy. As with any form of redevelopment potential of the proposed zoning district some site alteration may/will be required and this project will undergo extensive evaluation relative to all federal, state, and local development regulations during the site development plan approval process and again later as part of the building permit process. 17. The impact of development on the availability of adequate public facilities and services consistent with the levels of service adopted in the Collier County GMP and as defined and implemented through the Collier County adequate public facilities ordinance. The project will have to meet all applicable criteria set forth in the LDC regarding Adequate Public Facilities and the project will need to be consistent with all applicable goals and objectives of the GMP regarding adequate public facilities. This petition has been reviewed by county staff that is RZ-PL20130001302,Walgreens Naples Rezone April 10,2014(revised :April 17,2014) Paae 11 of 13 Packet Page-2200- 6/10/2014 17.B. responsible for jurisdictional elements of the GMP as part of the rezoning process and those staff persons have concluded that no Level of Service will be adversely impacted. 18. Such other factors, standards, or criteria that the Board of County Commissioners shall deem important in the protection of the public health, safety and welfare. To be determined by the BCC during its advertised public hearing.
