Re: Collier County Rural Fringe Mixed Use Program
Dear Mr. Casalanguida,
I am writing at the request of several clients who own property sending lands within Collier
County's Rural Fringe Mixed Use District as defined in the Future Land Use Element. As you
may be aware, the deadline for severance of the early entry bonus is March 27, 2012. While the
Rural Fringe landowners appreciate the County's past efforts to extend such deadline, they find
themselves questioning whether the County has plans to extend such date once again. Generally,
my clients find themselves in two categories that require extensions:
a. Developer clients that are pursuing project approvals with the South Florida Water
Management District and the Army Corps of Engineers are fearful that the recordation of the
development restriction associated with the TDR severance will render their acreage as ineligible
for use as mitigation land. As you are aware, this was never the intent of the TDR program.
b. Landowner clients who are unsure as to what their best option is. They find themselves
discouraged by the limited liquidity in the TDR market so they are unsure whether exercising a
development restriction on their land is the right course of action. They would like to see the
TDR program be a success before jumping in.

The County has extended timelines for PUD's, SDP's and other development approvals due to
the economic slow down. The TDR program has also suffered due to the economic slow down.
The goal of the TDR program is to encourage preservation of sending lands while fully
compensating those property owners who had their property designated sending lands. The
extension of the early entry bonus credit will fin then the goals of the TDR program.
On behalf of my clients, I am hereby requesting that you consider these circumstances and
provide clear direction to my clients and the public in general as to the County's proposed
actions with respect to this upcoming deadline.
If you would like to discuss this matter further, I can be reached at 239 -435 -3535.
