EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to provide increased recycling services and household hazardous waste
collection in North Naples by (1) authorizing staff to design and build a North Naples
Recycling Center at a cost of $1,600,000; and (2) approve the acquisition of 1 acre +/- of
land from the Collier County Water-Sewer District by the Solid Waste Management
Department at a cost of $414,000 for the construction of the recycling center; and (3)
authorize the necessary budget amendment. These actions will save valuable airspace,
comply with the County's Growth Management Plan, and the Integrated Solid Waste
Management Strategy by diverting recyclable materials from the landfill and protecting
our natural resources.
OBJECTIVE: The public purpose is to provide a conveniently located recycling center in
northern Collier County for residents and small business owners to dispose of their recyclables
and household hazardous materials to protect the environment and preserve valuable landfill
airspace.
CONSIDERATIONS: The Solid Waste Management Department (SWMD) is responsible for
ensuring that the Collier County Landfill ("Landfill") has sufficient capacity available for the
disposal of all municipal solid waste generated throughout the county. The Integrated Solid
Waste Management Strategy approved by the Board of County Commissioners (Board) on
December 5, 2006, includes components related to: increasing source reduction, materials reuse,
and recycling; diversion; optimizing existing assets and resources; and obtaining additional
facilities. Based on the past successful development of the Marco Island Recycling Center, the
SWMD finds that developing additional recycling centers in areas convenient to the public is a
best value solution that will increase recycling and household hazardous waste collection and, in
return, saving valuable landfill airspace and protecting our environment from illegal dumping.
The new North Naples Recycling Center will be located on a one-acre +/- lot located on the west
side of the Collier County Water-Sewer District-owned and operated North County Water
Reclamation Facility (NCWRF) just south of the intersection of Goodlette Frank and Immokalee
Roads. Access to the site will be from Goodlette Frank Road. The recycling center will not
interfere with current or future planned operations of the water reclamation facility. The North
Naples Recycling Center will be modeled after the Marco Island Recycling Center, which has
been recognized as a best-in-the-nation recycling facility for its ability to serve the community
through recycling and the protection of the enviromnent. The new North Naples facility will
provide increased recycling services for that community by providing a convenient collection
center for recyclable materials and household hazardous wastes including batteries, florescent
light bulbs, used oil, herbicides, pesticides, tires, and many other hazardous materials. All
materials will be properly housed and packaged for recycling and final disposal. It is estimated
that the North Naples Recycling Center will collect and ship out over 600 tons per year of
recyclable and household hazardous materials (based on current recycling operations).
The investment in the North Naples Recycling Center will save taxpayer funds by lessening our
dependency on the Collier County Landfill and extend its life cycle. By diverting valuable
recyclables to available markets, the county will recognize additional revenue to help offset
disposal cost for other materials.

The entire NCWRF site, including the area planned for the construction of the North Naples
Recycling Center is zoned I-Industrial that allows as a permitted use the local collecting and
transporting of refuse, without disposal (SIC code 4212). The operations of the planned
recycling center are consistent with this zoning requirement.
The Solid Waste Management Department maintains a very strict and comprehensive good
neighbor policy. This new facility will not negatively impact the residents of North Naples, but
rather will enhance their ability to protect their environment by properly disposing of household
hazardous waste materials and increasing recycling. With Board approval, staff will provide
public presentations to the homeowners' associations adjacent to the site to educate and inform
them of the availability of this new facility. Note that the Solid Waste Management Department
has not received any complaints related to noise, odor, or other operations related to the Marco
Island Recycling Center or its other recycling facilities.
Most importantly, this new recycling center will further enhance the recycling rates for Collier
County. This year, the Florida legislature passed a new statute that requires increased recycling
by municipal governments. As outlined in Florida Statute 403.7032(2), "by the year 2020 the
long-term goal for the recycling efforts of state and local govermnent entities, private companies
and organizations, and the general public is to reduce the amount of recyclable solid waste
disposed of in waste management facilities, "landfills," or incineration facilities by a statewide
average of at least 75%." This statute is consistent with the Board approved Integrated Solid
Waste Management strategy which calls for increased recycling countywide.
Real Property Management's staff appraiser has valued the one-acre +/- lot at $414,000 based on
current market data.
FISCAL IMPACT: Total cost of land, design, permitting and construction of the new North
Naples Recycling Center is estimated at $2,014,000 as follows:
Property Acquisition from NCWRF
Design, Permitting, and Construction costs
Total cost of Recycling Center
$ 414,000
$1.600.000
$2,014,000
The total amount of funding and budget amendments (BA) needed to move the required funding
into the North Naples Recycling Center project 70013 as follows:
North Naples Recycling Center (existing budget)
BA to reduce Reserves
BA to reduce Landfill Airspace Recovery Project 59015
Total amount of funding
$1,040,000
$ 674,000
$ 300.000
$2,014,000
The county will avoid disposal cost by not burying materials in the landfill as well as saving that
airspace for future disposal needs. Illegal dumping of household hazardous waste will be
reduced or avoided providing tangible and intangible benefits to Northern Collier County and
our environment.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: The construction of a North Naples Recycling
Center is in compliance with the county's Growth Management Plan. The Solid Waste sub-
elements of the Plan promote measures that will increase recycling in Collier County. This
