Exhibit A
HOUSING ELEMENT
(Adopted October 1997, amended through January 8, 2013 by Ordinance no. 2013-10)
INTRODUCTION
[pg. 1]
The goal of the Housing Element of the Collier County Growth Management Plan is "to create an
adequate supply of decent, safe, sanitary, and affordable housing for all residents of Collier
County." With the exception of housing opportunities provided to citizens of very modest means,
the provision and maintenance of housing is traditionally a function of the private market. The
development of private housing in Collier County is driven by an expensive housing stock;
effectively excluding low-income and working class families from the housing market. Thus, there
is a need for the County to find ways to encourage the provision of affordable-workforce housing
for these families.
In Collier County, encouragement of the provision of affordable-workforce housing is the
responsibility of the Collier County Operations Support and Housing Department. The purpose
of the Department's grants and affordable-workforce housing programs is to increase the supply
of affordable-workforce housing countywide, through management of the County's Affordable
Housing Trust Fund. The trust fund has enabled the County to implement the following programs:
• Impact fee deferrals,
• Housing rehabilitation and emergency repair,
• Down payment/closing cost assistance,
• Land acquisition with new construction,
• Demolition with new construction,
• Special needs housing and pre-approved building plans,
• Meeting community needs by facilitating the creation of affordable-workforce housing
opportunities; the improvement of communities; and the sustainability of neighborhoods.
Collier County will continue to address its affordable-workforce housing deficit by working
collaboratively with non-profit groups, governmental agencies, and public/private coalitions to
coordinate activities and effectively leverage the resources available to the entire County. The
most current data available from the University of Florida Shimberg Center is considered in
assessing the County's affordable-workforce housing deficit.

Policy 3.8:
[pg. 6]
The County shall continue to maintain its Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) urban
entitlement county status with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, which
will continue to result in an annual allocation of federal funding available to assist very-low, low,
moderate and affordable workforcc income households.
*** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** ***
OBJECTIVE 8:
[pg. 10]
Utilize SHIP, CDBG, or other funding sources and, in partnership with Federal, State and non-
profit housing agencies, to provide in concert with Objective 1, a number of rehabilitated or new
residential units per year for very low, low, moderate and affordable-workforce income residents,
based on identified need. (Families benefiting from such housing will include, but are not limited
to, farmworkers and other populations with special housing needs.)
