EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve an Agreement for Sale and Purchase with Bill
Navarro, formerly known as Isabelo V. Navarro and Lydia R. Navarro, his wife, for
1.59 acres under the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Program at a cost not
to exceed $12,500.
OBJECTIVE: To purchase a 1.59 acre parcel within the Red Maple Swamp Preserve Multi"
parcel Project from Bill Navarro, formerly known as Isabelo V. Navarro and Lydia R. Navarro
(Sellers).
CONSIDERATIONS: On January 27, 2004, Agenda Item 10A, the Board approved a
Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Advisory Committee (CCLAAC) recommended Active
Acquisition List (AAL) , with changes, and directed staff to actively pursue acquisition of the
properties under the Conservation Collier Program. On June 22, 2004, Agenda Item 16A2, the
Board confirmed their direction to staff authorizing staff to proceed with purchase contracts for
Golden Gate Estates, Unit 53 Multi Parcel Project now known as the Red Maple Swamp
Preserve Multi-parcel Project (Project), properties as they become available and to bring these
contracts back to the Board for final approval. On September 26, 2006, Agenda Item 10G, the
Board directed staff to discontinue buying properties within Red Maple Swamp Preserve Multi-
parcel Project due to rising property costs. On January 29, 2008, Agenda Item 10F, the Board
accepted CCLAAC's recommended AAL reactivating and placing the Red Maple Swamp
Preserve Multi"parcel Project on the "A" list.
The Red Maple Swamp Preserve Multi"parcel Project consists of 107 parcels and a total of
305.69 acres. To date, Conservation Collier has acquired 61 parceis consisting of a total or
174.70 acres and two parcels totaling 9.17 acres owned by Corkscrew Regional Ecosystem.
Staff contracted with two independent, state-certified, general real estate appraisal firms to
appraise all parcels within the Red Maple Swamp Preserve Multi-parcel Project. The appraisers
based their analyses on comparable sales from wetland, not upland parcels, preferably within
the Red Maple Swamp Preserve Multi-parcel Project boundaries. The appraisals dated
September 2009 provided an averaged appraised value for parcels less than 2.5 acres within
the Red Maple Swamp Preserve Multi-parcel Project at $7,500 an acre. On July 12, 2010, the
CCLAAC recommended extending offers to owners at the October 2009 appraisal values. The
cost to obtain new appraisals is $8,000. Based on the slight decline in land values and the
number of interested property owners last year, the CCLAAC determined that the most cost
effective approach is to utilize the 2009 appraisal values.
The Sellers' property contains a total of 1.59 acres and is iocated within the Red Maple Swamp
Preserve Multi-parcel Project. The land cost for the 1.59 acre parcel is $11,925. The Property
Appraiser's 2010 Tax Roll assessed value for this property is $5,565.
The attached Agreement provides that should the County elect not to close this transaction for
any reason, except for default by the Sellers, the County will pay the Sellers $59.63 in liquidated
damages.
At the December 13, 2010 CCLAAC meeting, staff presented financial data and projections that
indicated a projected deficit in the Land Management Fund and recommended immediate
suspension of acquisition activities. The CCLAAC recommends moving forward with this and

three other properties already under contract citing that both the acquisition and land
management costs for these properties are low, they are all part of multi-parcel projects. and the
contracts for these properties have already been negotiated.
Pursuant to Ordinance 2007-65, Section 13(8), a Project Design Report for the property is
provided herewith.
FISCAL IMPACT: The total cost of acquisition will not exceed $12,500 ($11,925 for the
property and approximately $575 for the title commitment, title policy, and recording of
documents). The funds will be withdrawn from the Conservation Collier Trust Fund (172). As
of November 8, 2010, property costs for Conservation Collier properties, including this property
and those under contract, total $104,181,153.02. Estimated costs of maintenance in perpetuity
have been considered by the CCLAAC and have been incorporated into the Conservation
Collier Long Term Financial Management Plan.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Fee simple acquisition of conservation lands is
consistent with and supports Policy 1.3.1 (e) in the Conservation and Coastal Management
Element of the Collier County Growth Management Plan.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed and approved by the County
Attorney's Office and is legally sufficient. - JSW
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board: 1) Approves the attached Agreement and accepts the
Warranty Deed once it has been received and approved by the County Attorney's Office; 2)
Authorizes the Chairman to execute the Agreement and any and all other County Attorney's
Office approved documents related to this transaction; 3) Authorizes the County Manager or his
designee to prepare related vouchers and Warrants for payment; and 4) Directs the County
Manager or his designee to proceed to acquire this parcel, to follow all appropriate closing
procedures, to record the deed and any and all necessary documents to obtain clear title to this
parcel, and to take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure performance under the Agreement.

Program Qualifications:
This is one of a number of parcels approved for acquisition that are part of a larger, multi-
parcel, multi-owner project known both as the Red Maple Swamp Preserve Project and as
North Golden Gate Estates (NGGE) Unit 53. This parcel was considered in context of the
whole project. The following identifies the ecological value, significance for water
resources, human values and aesthetics, vulnerability to development and management
potential for this project. The entire project area is 305.69 acres, and there are currently
171.97 acres (or 56%) within the project area acquired by Conservation Collier. Another
7.28 acres (4 parcels) are currently scheduled for closings.
.
Native habitat present over the whole unit is wetland hardwood forest, with a substantial
portion of that being dominated by cypress and red maple swamp and the remainder by
native and exotic re-growth over a historic farm field (approximately 100 acres). Soils,
hydrology and extant plant species indicate that the entire unit is a seasonal wetland, with
surface water present during rainy season and moist conditions remaining during dry
season (excepting drought conditions when water tables may recede lower). The area
contributes moderately to Lower Tamiami aquifer recharge.
A native terrestrial orchid species State listed as Threatened, Wild Coco (Eulophia alta)
and a fern species, Royal fern (Osmunda regalis) listed by the State as Commercially
Exploited were observed in abundance. No listed wildlife species were observed,
however, the entire unit is directly adjacent to Priority One Panther Habitat, as designated
by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Black bear, another listed
species, are known to inhabit adjoining public lands. Wetland dependant bird species
have been observed on site.
.
NGGE Unit 53 is connected on its north and west sides with the Florida Forever
Corkscrew Regional Ecosystem Watershed (CREW) Project, a "Group A" (priority)
project on the state's Florida Forever Acquisition List encompassing 69,500 acres. See
the attached map taken from a March 2010 Florida Forever annual report with NGGE
Unit 53 identified as "Red Maple Swamp Preserve." Surrounding lands include South
Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) lands, the CREW Trust conservation
lands, the Audubon Corkscrew Sanctuary, the Pepper Ranch and Caracara Prairie
Preserves, private mitigation lands and lands protected under the County's Rural Lands
Stewardship Program. Conservation Collier acquisitions within NGGE Unit 53 would
enhance, protect, and buffer these lands. The acquisition of lands within NGGE Unit 53
will provide additional public access opportunities to the area including a connection with
adjoining Bird Rookery Swamp, where a 1,200-foot boardwalk has been built and nearly
5 miles of hiking trails have been created by SFWMD. Staff will coordinate with
SFWMD when planning for public access to NGGE Unit 53 lands.
Proiected Management Activities:
Removal of exotic plants, grading out portions of existing limerock roads (except for
those portions necessary to public access), construction of trails, parking and placement
of fencing and signage are projected management activities. An Interim Management
Plan (IMP) has been drafted and approved, however, the existence of the boardwalk and

trail system on adjoining SFWMD lands was not known at that point in time and a
potential partnership was not contemplated. Any partnerships, including potential road
improvements, will be included in a Final Management Plan and brought to the Board of
County Commissioners for review and approval. Pursuant.to the approved IMP, active
management of the parcels will begin once enough contiguous parcels have been
acquired to make management actions cost effective.
