EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to conduct the Conservation Collier Annual Public Meeting to
provide the Board of County Commissioners and public with an update on the
Program's past activities and to obtain direction on solicitation of proposals for
the current acquisition cycle.
OBJECTIVE: To provide an update on the Program's past activities and to obtain direction on
solicitation of proposals and applications for the current, seventh, acquisition cycle.
CONSIDERATION:
A November 2002 County-wide referendum approved the Conservation Collier Program to
acquire environmentally sensitive land. In December 2002, the Board of County
Commissioners (Board) approved Ordinance 2002-63 (amended as Ordinance 2007-65)
establishing the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Program and appointed a nine-member
advisory committee called the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Advisory Committee
(CCLAAC) to make recommendations on acquisitions and program policies and procedures. A
November 2006 County-wide referendum confirmed community support for ad valorem tax
funding of the Program for 10 years, through 2013.
The CCLAAC and staff have completed six selection and approval cycles. Total cost of land
acquisition to date is approximately $103.9 million. Since beginning acquisitions in 2004,
Conservation Collier has acquired 4,078 acres in 19 different locations.
",-,
At the June 8th meeting of the CCLAAC, members voted unanimously to forward the attached
2009 Annual Report to the Board of County Commissioners. Please see this Report, dated
June 2009, for a map of property locations and a report of past and current activities.
Fifteen (15) of the 19 acquired projects are now under Board-approved management plans,
both Interim and Final. Three Preserves (Cocohatchee Creek, Otter Mound and Logan Woods
Preserves) are currently open to the public. Preserve management activities are ongoing for all
acquired properties except several multi-parcel projects, where larger contiguous areas must be
acquired in order to manage in a cost effective manner.
The proposed objectives of the program's seventh year include:
1. Secure grant funding wherever possible
2. Continue to conduct public meetings for ongoing development of Final Management
Plans
3. Develop public access for acquired properties
4. Work with other County Departments to coordinate conservation land purchases with
other public needs
5. Work effectively with the Transfer of Development Rights Program and Offsite Preserve
Land Development Code option to accept land and/or funds conveyances under these
programs.
Like many public programs, Conservation Collier has been impacted by the current economic
conditions. Lower property values and the foreclosure crisis have been factors resulting in
reduced tax income for the Program.

The Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Advisory Committee was advised of the Program
financial status at its April 13th 2009 public meeting. At that meeting, staff proposed to suspend
the current (yth) acquisition cycle for a number of reasons, including the following:
. To allow time to accumulate funds for additional purchases,
. To make sure funds will be available to complete existing projects,
. To avoid inefficient duplication of property research that would be necessary if new
proposals are researched too far in advance of funding availability,
. To most efficiently use staff resources by focusing where funds are currently available -
for property management activities,
. To develop public access at current preserves.
Staff has proposed, and the Committee concurred at its April 13th public meeting, by 7-1 vote,
that staff should suspend intake of acquisition proposals (except for donations and ongoing
approved multi-parcel projects) until the next annual cycle beginning in January 2010. Further,
staff recommends that monthly committee meetings be limited to those necessary to accomplish
ongoing business so that staff can focus on preserve management tasks. The need for
meetings would be determined monthly by the staff and the Program Committee Chairman.
Subcommittee meetings would continue to be held as necessary.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funds received throughout Fiscal Year 2009 for acquisition of Cycle 6 A List properties were
less than anticipated; furthermore, cash on hand was utilized to complete the acquisition of
Pepper Ranch in February 2009. As a result, staff recommends that Cycle 7 activities be
suspended, as described above, until additional ad valorem revenue is received in Fiscal Year
2010. There is no other fiscal impact associated with this executive summary.
(The forecast revenue for land acquisition for the remainder of the Program (FY 2010 to FY
2013) is estimated in the table included as Exhibit A.)
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 and Policy 1.4 of the Future Land Use Element of the Collier County Growth
Management Plan.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: Ordinance 2002-63, as amended, in section 12.6, requires staff to
conduct an annual public meeting for the purposes of providing a Past and Current Activities
Report to the Board and to solicit proposals and applications from the public. JBW
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board accepts the attached 2009 Annual Report as presented
and directs staff to suspend the current acquisition cycle, cycle seven, to resume active review
of proposals in January 2010, within cycle eight.

Executive Summary
In accordance with the Conservation Collier Ordinance, as amended (2007-65, Section 12.6),
there will be an annual meeting to update the Board of County Commissioners (Board) and
public on the Conservation Collier Program and for soliciting proposals and applications. The
following annual report is intended to serve as the update to the Board and public.
The Conservation Collier Program is responsible for implementing the mandate of the electorate
of Collier County as provided by public referendum votes in November, 2002, and again in
November, 2006 confirming that mandate, to levy a 0.25 mill ad valorem property tax for a
period not to exceed 10 years for acquisition, protection, restoration, and management of
environmentally sensitive lands in Collier County for the benefit of present and future
generations. A nine (9) member citizen's advisory committee named the Conservation Collier
Land Acquisition Advisory Committee (CCLAAC) was appointed in early 2003 to make
recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners on land purchases and program
policies. Members are appointed for 3 year terms. The CCLAAC currently has nine active
members.
Conservation Collier has been operating to implement its mandate for 6 years. During this time
period, approximately 4,078 acres have been acquired in 19 different locations for a cost of
approximately $103.9 million. A total of $47,332,251 has been bonded for use in property
acquisition, via bonds in 2004 and 2009. Another approximately 51 acres at a cost of
approximately $1.6 million are currently approved and within the acquisition pipeline. Two
approved multi-parcel projects are underway (Winchester Head and North Golden Gate Estates
Unit 53), and other projects that contain multiple parcels and owners are partially purchased.
These projects are detailed later in this report.
Of the 19 acquired Conservation Collier properties, eight (8) have approved Final Management
Plans, seven (7) have approved Interim Management Plans (IMP), and one has an IMP under
review (Table 3). The remaining properties not currently under management plans are multiple
parcel projects with acquisitions pending. Three (3) Conservation Collier preserves are open for
public use: Cocohatchee Creek Preserve, Otter Mound Preserve and Logan Woods Preserve -
with signs, trails and benches. Management activities for FY2009 are anticipated to cost
$269,000. This funding is to accomplish specific management actions on 11 of the 19 acquired
preserve properties.
Staff has been active in grant writing for management since the beginning of the Program and
has received grant funding awards totaling $242,406. Several grants for land acquisitions have
been applied for, but none have been awarded. All awarded grants have been for land
management activities and equipment.
Like many public programs, Conservation Collier has been impacted by the current economic
conditions. Lower property values and the foreclosure crisis have been factors resulting in
reduced tax income for the Program. Funds received by early 2009 for acquisition of cycle 6 A-
List (2008) properties were less than anticipated; fulihermore, cash on hand was utilized to
complete the acquisition of Pepper Ranch in February 2009. As a result, cycle 6 A-List projects
3

Page 8 of 25
have been placed "on hold" until funding is secured. Budget staff has advised Conservation
Collier that ad valorem revenue for FY 2010 will be received beginning in late 2009.
The Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Advisory Committee was advised of the Program
financial status at its April 13th 2009 public meeting. At that meeting, staff proposed to suspend
the current acquisition cycle for a number of reasons, including the following:
· To allow time to accumulate funds for additional purchases,
· To make sure funds will be available to complete existing projects,
· To avoid inefficient duplication of property research that would be necessary if proposals
are researched too far in advance of funding availability,
· To most efficiently use staff resources by focusing where funds are currently available -
for property management activities,
· To develop public access at current preserves.
Staff has proposed, and the CCLAAC concurred, that staff should suspend intake of acquisition
proposals (except for donations and ongoing approved multi-parcel projects) until the next
annual cycle (beginning in January 2010), and should limit monthly committee meetings to those
necessary to accomplish ongoing business so that staff can be freed to focus on preserve
management tasks. The need for additional meetings would be detemlined monthly by the staff
and the Program Committee Chairman. Subcommittee meetings would continue to be held as
necessary. Staff is requesting the Board approve this strategy for 2009.

Conservation Collier Annual Report
1. Conservation Collier land Acquisition Advisory Committee
The CCLAAC consists of 9 members appointed by the Board. The primary purpose of the
CCLAAC is to assist the Board in establishing an Active Properties Acquisition List with
qualified purchase recommendations consistent with the goals of Conservation Collier.
CCLAAC members serve in accordance with Ordinance 2001-55, as revised (Ord. 2009-16).
Membership of the CCLAAC is intended to be comprised of broad and balanced representation
of the interests of Collier County citizens, including:
. Environmental and conservation interests
. Agricultural and business interests
. Educational interests
. General civic and citizen interests throughout the county.
The CCLAAC has 3 subcommittees:
Outreach
Typical tasks include development of informational brochures, facilitating partnership projects
with area schools and working to interact with the local community to encourage public interest
in Conservation Collier Projects.
Lands Evaluation and Manaeement
This sub-committee reviews all proposed land management plans and makes recommendations
to the full committee on land management activities and issues on acquired preserves. This
committee is currently reviewing the Interim Management Plan for the Pepper Ranch Preserve.
Ordinance. Policv and Rules
This subcommittee met in the early stages of the program to develop a purchase policy, to
discuss various program policies and to review the ordinance to determine if and what changes
may be needed to successfully operate the program. Completed tasks include a revision of the
Conservation Collier Ordinance (2007-65), development of an Exceptional Benefits Ordinance,
changes to the Purchase Policy (Resolution 2007-300) and development of a recommended
policy for the acceptance of properties conveyed under the Transfer of Development Rights
(TOR) Program. This subcommittee is now in the process of developing a recommended policy
to facilitate the off-site preserve option as proposed in Land Development Code revisions.
Currently serving members and their areas of expertise are:
. William Poteet, Jr. - Chairman. Mr. Poteet is a realtor and businessman, who has been
a member of the CCLAAC since its inception in March 2003. He was originally appointed in

Two of the 19 project locations are approved multi-parcel projects - Winchester Head and
North Golden Gate Estates (NGGE) Unit 53 (a.k.a. Red Maple Swamp). Conservation
Collier has acquired approx 35% (58.04 acres out of 167.74 acres) within Winchester Head,
and has acquired 61 % (174.08 acres out of 285 acres) within NGGE Unit 53. Both multi-
parcel projects have been approved subject to land values. As long as this approval remains
in force, Conservation Collier will perform a market study and appraisal approximately every
6 months and make offers to owners within the project boundaries. The most recent
appraisals for both projects are over 6 months old. New appraisals are expected to be
performed in August 2009. Staff expects the property values in both multi-parcel project
areas to fall.
Because many of the lands offered to Conservation Collier are comprised of multiple lots and
ownerships, multi-parcel projects have been a challenge for the Program. Challenges
include: higher prices for smaller lots, fluctuating values over multiple years of buying,
unwilling sellers within the project boundary, and lack of assurance that in-holding parcels
will be acquired in the future, a particular challenge of the willing-seller environment.
Although only two approved multi-parcel projects exist, there are a number of Program
projects that consist of groups of adjacent properties, including the 1-75 (Currently B-Listed),
Rivers Road, McIlvane Marsh and Camp Keais Strand projects. There is a distinct difference
between approved multi-parcel projects and parcels that are simply grouped together as
projects. For approved multi-parcel projects, a project boundary has been clearly defined and
all parcels within that boundary are deemed of interest to the County. Upon Board approval
of a multi-parcel project, appraisals can be done and offers made to owners within the project
boundary without taking properties individually through the review and acquisition cycle.
Parcels that are simply grouped together in locations are taken individually through the
criteria evaluation process and to the Board for approval during the regular cycle. There has
been reluctance to make grouped parcels into formal multi-parcel projects due to the above-
mentioned challenges.
B. Grouped Parcel Projects:
1. The /-75 parcels - Currently on the B-List
8
These are a group of contiguous and
non-contiguous parcels located
between the southern terminuses of
Everglades Blvd. and Desoto Blvd.
in NGGE. These parcels are within
a Target Protection Area (NGGE)
and meet the Conservation Collier
criteria. Their acquisition would
provide wildlife habitat and a
significant area that could accept
surface flood waters from other
lands within the NGGE. The total
area covered by these lots is 243
acres, 196 acres of which are mostly
Agenda Item No. 10E
June 23, 2009
Page 13 of 25
contiguous lots owned by one individual. There are a total of 13 owners who have filled out
applications for Conservation Collier and who have gone through the criteria review process.
All 243 acres are currently on the Cycle 6 Conservation Collier Active Acquisition List
(AAL) as B-List properties, meaning they will be automatically re-ranked in the next
acquisition cycle.
There are several unknowns and challenges involved with considering a multi-parcel
purchase in this location. First is that the County Transportation Department has this area
under review regarding a potential future interchange connection with 1-75, possibly at the
southern end of Everglades Blvd, the southern end of Desoto Blvd or farther east. The
Conservation Collier Committee has recommended placing parcels in this project on the B-
List to determine if there is potential to partner with Transportation on the acquisition of
specific lots for interchange project mitigation. A County consultant is currently performing
an Interchange Justification Report (UR) as a preliminary step in determining whether an
interchange is needed. This report is expected to be completed by December 2009, with.
response expected from the Florida Highway Administration (FHW A) in early 2010. The
next phase of the project is a Project Design and Engineering (PD&E) Study. Local, state
and federal funds have been allocated for the PD&E Study, which should begin after
receiving a response from FHW A. Interchange development in this location may still take
many years to accomplish, since no funding has been identified for design and construction.
At this time, it is not clear what, if any, mitigation may be required and what, if any,
partnership between Transportation and Conservation Collier is possible. Additionally,
some parcels currently identified for acquisition with willing sellers are not contiguous, and it
is not known whether in-holding owners will be willing to sell. Previously, letters sent by
Conservation Collier to these owners have received no response. A final challenge is that
assembling a large area from individually platted lots can be expensive. Although values
may have decreased, the last estimate of land values done by County staff in 2008 placed the
value of offered parcels in the neighborhood of $3.1 million. That does not include
appraisals and individual title work. Actual appraisals have not been performed.
2. The Rivers Road Project
~ Conservl!ltlon C.ollier: Stirns Cycle 6: Aeriel Map IRivora Road LocDtion~ ; ,}:1':.., "''''
This project began as a group of
9 contiguous parcels owned by 5
individuals which were offered
to Conservation Collier in the 5th
acquisition cycle. The parcels
are located off Rivers Road,
which is located south of
lmmokalee Road across from the
Twin Eagles PUD, in Section 30,
Township 48, Range 27. These
parcels are not within a TP A, but
meet the Conservation Collier
criteria. They lie within the

acquisition expands and protects an active wildlife corridor and protects an area that is
significant for aquifer recharge. Nine parcels (72 acres) were evaluated during the 5th
acquisition cycle, and in January 2008, seven of those parcels (63 acres) were acquired.
Three additional contiguous parcels under two ownerships totaling 13.76 acres were
approved as A-List properties in the 6th acquisition cycle (Cosentino -2 parcels; Devisse - I
parcel), which will bring the total size of the Rivers Road Project to 77 acres. The two A-
List parcels will be appraised and purchased as funding allows. Parcels within this group are
considered in the context of a multi-parcel project but are moving independently through the
acquisition process. An owner whose parcel was placed on the C-List in cycle 6 due to the
presence of a structure (Paganes - 5 acres outlined in blue on the map) has approached the
CCLAAC asking for consideration of a non-fee type acquisition, such as life estate or
conservation easement. This will be considered during the next active acquisition cycle.
Located northeast of Marco Island and
surrounded by state and federal
conservation lands, the McIlvane
Marsh Project consists of an 800-acre
mangrove salt marsh. Parcels here are
relatively large, 20 acres to several
hundred acres in size, and are
relatively inexpensive, having been
appraised and purchased at $6,700 per
acre within the last few years.
Conservation Collier has acquired 339
acres from 6 owners, a result of the 4th
acquisition cycle (2006), with one
parcel from that cycle still making its
way through the acquisition process.
Collier County also owns 20 acres
within McIlvane Marsh as a mitigation
parcel. With the remaining
acquisition, the total acreage within
McIlvane Marsh owned by
Conservation Collier/Collier County
will be 388 acres. The State of Florida
owns 329 acres in a mosaic pattern
with Conservation Collier lands.
Considering both state and County
lands, a total of nearly 7] 7 acres out of the 800-acre marsh will be in conservation status.
Conservation Collier has discussed partnership with the State of Florida (Florida Forever
Program) for a post-acquisition partnership involving future sale of these lands to the State of
Florida for long term management and protection. Current state budget constraints make this
a proposal to look at after 20] O. In the event a state partnership is not realized, Conservation
Collier will seek to partner with Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, the

There is some limited potential for public use of this area via kayaks and canoes, which
would still be possible under state ownership and/or management.
4. The Camp Keais Strand Project
This is a group of smaller acreage
parcels within the Rural Lands
Stewardship Area located just north of
the Florida Panther National Wildlife
Refuge in the Camp Keais Strand,
within Sections 29 and 30, Township
48, Range 29. Parcels are within the
Florida Forever Corkscrew Regional
Ecosystem Watershed Project and in
an area considered critical for
conservation by four state agencies in
studies done over two decades.
Fourteen (14) non-contiguous parcels
ranging in size from 2 Y2 to 15 acres
under different ownerships totaling 85
acres originally made up this project. These applications were received in the 3rd acquisition
cycle as a result of staff mailing inquiry letters to owners of parcels identified as Target
Protection Areas within the Conservation Collier ordinance. In the 3rd acquisition cycle
(2005), the properties were evaluated and placed on the "B" list due to their remote location
and lack of access. In the 4th cycle (2006) they were again placed on the "B" list. In the 5th
cycle (2007), the Conservation Collier Committee recommended placing these properties on
the "c" list, even given their "critical" status, again due to their remote location, lack of
access and the now dwindling number of contiguous parcels offered - 6 out of the original] 4
offered; 32.5 out of the original 85 acres offered. However, in January 2009, the Board
placed the six offered properties on the "A" list. As of June 9, 2009 all six parcels have
been acquired. Conservation Collier staff has discussed this project with the state in context
of a partnership with the Florida Forever Program, but current state budget constraints make
this a proposal to look at after 2010.

Conservation Collier: Camp Keals Strand Parcels
c. Approved but not acquired parcels:
Conservation Collier is currently in the appraisal and due diligence phase for cycle six (2008)
"A" list projects (Exhibit B), which were approved for acquisition by the Board on January
27, 2009. Eighteen acres, with a total estimated value of $1.26 million are waiting to be
appraised and have offers made. These are parcels that adjoin and would expand current
Conservation Collier Preserves. Two parcels from previous cycles remain in the acquisition
process due to various delays, one from the McIlvane Marsh project (RJS) and the other from
the Camp Keais Strand Project (Griffin). The entire estimated cost of approved but not
acquired parcels, including cycle six A-List, remaining earlier cycle and remaining NGGE
Unit 53 and Winchester Head parcels, is approximately $5.2 million. Not all ofthe remaining
11
Agenda Item No. 10E
June 23, 2009
Page 16 of 25
NGGE Unit 53 or Winchester Head are expected to be offered for sale to Conservation
Collier this year; so less than $5.2 million will likely be needed. Funds to make these
purchases will come from ad valorem revenues for FY 2010, expected to be received
beginning in late 2009.
3. Program financial status
Conservation Collier has spent approximately $103.9 million in the 6 years it has been in
existence, acquiring 4,078 acres in 19 different locations. Funds are generated from an ad
valorem property tax of up to .2500 mils, or $25 for each $100,000 in taxable property value for
property owners in Collier County, with levy authorization through 2013. As funds are collected
for the Program each year, a small percentage is taken by the tax collector and the property
appraiser for their services, 15% of the net levy is transferred into a separate fund for
management activities, and a portion is used for debt reduction (Bond Series 2005 and Bond
Series 2008). The total of debt service payments made, including principal and interest, will be
$54,614,972.49 when the debt is retired in FY 2013. Table I below shows ad valorem revenue
received after debt service payments, from Fiscal Year (FY) 2004 to 2009. Table 2 shows
estimated ad valorem revenue projections from FY 2010 through FY 2013.
Funds received by early 2009 for acquisition of cycle 6 A-List (2008) properties were less than
anticipated due to the general economic downturn. Furthermore, remaining cash on hand was
utilized to complete the acquisition of Pepper Ranch in February 2009. As a result, there is a
lack of available funds for Conservation Collier to acquire cycle six (2008) approved proposals.
At this point in the program, when lands have been acquired and potential management costs can
be more realistically determined, staff and CCLAAC members are examining projected income
and management funding needs in order to make a recommendation to the Board as to how
remaining funds should be spent; i.e, can additional land acquisitions be made or should
remaining projected income be allocated for completion of existing projects and management of
existing preserves? A public workshop is being planned for July, 2009 to discuss this issue. Staff
expects the CCLAAC to formulate a recommendation to the Board in late 2009.

4. Acquired lands management status
Conservation Collier is required to prepare Interim Management Plans (IMP) for properties
within 90 days of acquisition and Final Management Plans (FMP) within 2 years of acquisition
(Ord. No. 2007-65, Section 14). IMPs are designed to facilitate initial management actions such
as removal of exotics and trash, securing the asset (i.e., fencing, if necessary) and planning for
future management actions and public access. FMPs provide direction for ten years and
incorporate long term management actions such as restoration, plant and wildlife monitoring and
public access infrastructure.
Of the 19 acquired Conservation Collier properties, eight have approved FMPs, seven have
approved IMPs, and one has an IMP under review (Table 3). Of the remaining three properties,
one is proposed for management by Rookery Bay NERR (Mcllvane Marsh Project), and two are
grouped projects with acquisitions pending (Rivers Road and Camp Keais Strand). An IMP will
be prepared when project acquisitions are completed. Both of the approved multi-parcel
projects have IMPs in place but will not be actively managed until a solid core of contiguous
properties are acquired so that the most efficient use can be made of management funds.
A number of Conservation Collier Preserves are open to the public, shortly to be opened and/or
are accommodating public use. Three preserves are currently open for public use with signs,
trails, benches, picnic tables and trash receptacles. Cocohatchee Creek Preserve, next to
Veterans Community Park, was opened in March, 2006. Otter Mound Preserve, on Marco
Island, was opened in March 2007. Staff has already conducted numerous tours and educational
programs for adults and children at these two preserves and routinely observes members of the
public visiting them. Logan Woods Preserve, on the NW comer of Pine Ridge Road and Logan
Blvd. is now open with a trail, benches, table and trash receptacle installed. The Logan Woods
Preserve sign installation is expected within weeks and will complete the opening. No formal
opening event has been planned for Logan Woods Preserve as there is no parking availability at
this location. At all three preserves, native habitat has been restored. At the Freedom Memorial
Park, a portion of which is within a l2-acre Conservation Collier Preserve, a public boardwalk is
scheduled to be opened later this year. The 2,5l2-acre Pepper Ranch Preserve was acquired
earlier this year. Although much work remains to be done before the Preserve can be opened for
routine public use, staff conducted a public event on April 9, 2009, the Pepper Ranch Sneak Peek
Hike, which included guided trail hikes and an open house at the lodge. An additional event is
planned for the Pepper Ranch Preserve later this year.

6. Grants status
Conservation Collier has actively pursued a number of grants for both acquisition and
management purposes. Currently, there have been no awards for land acquisition, but many for
management, primarily for the removal of invasive, exotic species but also for needed equipment
and plant community restoration (Table 4). Exotics removal grants have come from state and
federal government agencies, including U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Partners Program), the
State of Florida through the Invasive Plant Species Management Council, and the University of
Florida. A grant from the private sector (ESRI Corporation) for Global Positioning Systems I
Geographic Information Systems (GPS/GIS) for equipment and software in the amount of
$10,000 was also awarded to Conservation Collier. The table below shows the amount of grant
funds obtained and Conservation Collier management funds expended for specific preserves.

7. Planned 2009 Activities
A. Cycle 7 - Current Status
Conservation Collier staff proposed and the CCLAAC recommends suspending Cycle 7 for FY
2009 and halting the processing of any new acquisition proposals in 2009. So far in 2009, staff
has received five applications; two donation/conveyance proposals and three acquisition
proposals (Exhibit C). Two potential donations and one acquisition proposal had been accepted
into the cycle and were under review. Another two applications were received for which no
action has been taken. Staff proposes and CCLAAC recommends that no additional proposals be
accepted in 2009 and the proposals currently received not be ranked at the end of 2009, but be
held for ranking at the end of 2010 along with any additional proposals received in cycle eight
(2010). Additionally, staff proposes and CCLAAC recommends that CCLAAC meetings be held
in July and October of 2009 and as needed in order to obtain Committee recommendations on
various ongoing issues, update the Committee on preserve management/access, review
donation/conveyances, and report on any Winchester Head and NGGE Unit 53 properties that
become available after updated appraisals are performed. Under this proposal, regular monthly
meetings and Cycle 7 application processing would resume in January 20 I O.
The reasons for this proposal include:
· The primary reason for suspension of cycle 7 is lack of immediate funds to purchase. Ad
valorem tax collections for 2009 will begin to be available in November 2009 but are
anticipated to fall below budgeted amounts. Cycle six A-List proposals, remaining
previous cycle purchases and multi-parcel project purchases are expected to consume the
tax collection funds that become available later in 2009. In the event that a Cycle 7 list
was prepared for ranking in December 2009, funds would not be available for acquisition
of those properties until December 20 I O. With such an extended time frame, there are no
assurances that Cycle 7 properties would still be available for purchase at that time, and
all information regarding the listed properties would require staff time to update prior to
acquisition, effectively duplicating the review effort.
· Funds are available for management; therefore staff time will be more productively and
efficiently used in focusing on management with a goal of facilitating public access.
· Allows more time for pursuit of grants.
B. Transfer of Development Rights (TOR) Program Conveyances
The TDR Program within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District (RFMUD) was first
adopted in the Future Land Use Element of the County's Growth Management Plan (GMP)
under Ordinance 2002-32, effective July 22, 2003. The implementing regulations were
adopted into the County's Land Development Code under Ordinance 2004-08, effective
February 20,2004. The TOR Program was established with the goal ofprotecting identified
environmentally sensitive lands within the RFMUD while protecting the value and
development potential of those lands by allowing the transfer of development rights
associated with these lands to less environmentally sensitive lands also within the RFMUD.
16
Agenda Item No. 10E
June 23, 2009
Page 21 of 25
The Program was amended in 2005 to add three additional residential density units as
bonuses, including an early entry TDR bonus, Environmental Restoration and Maintenance
TDR Bonus and a Conveyance TDR Bonus. Under the Conveyance Bonus, a landowner
may provide a restoration and management plan acceptable to the County and convey the
lands with management funding to a public agency for conservation purposes. The
Ordinance, Policy and Rules Subcommittee of the CCLAAC met to. develop a procedure for
evaluation of such proposals. Such procedure was developed and approved in Resolution
form (2008-132) by the Board of County Commissioners on May 13, 2008 (Agenda Item
l6E6).
Two applications for the first TDR conveyance proposals from properties within the Rural
Fringe Mixed Use District were received during 2008, one along Benfield Road (Benfield
Road Project) and the other in the North Belle Meade (Caloosa Reserve Project). These
proposals do not follow the regular acquisition cycle, but are addressed individually as they
are received. Staff has done the required assessment on both projects. Neither project is
moving forward towards Board approval at this time, for different reasons. Financial
considerations regarding certain requirements of the TOR transfer process, specifically,
Conservation Collier's requirement that a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment be
performed, and uncertainty regarding the route for the County's Wilson/Benfield road project
have caused the Benfield Road Project proposal to be withdrawn by the owners. General
economic conditions cause the Caloosa Reserve Project proposal to be temporarily
withdrawn by the owners. These proposals are summarized below:
Ca/oosa Reserve Project
The Caloosa Reserve Project proposal consists of 13 separate parcels totaling 109 acres
under one ownership in the RFMUD North Belle Meade sending lands, Collier County.
Twelve of the parcels, totaling 92 acres, are within Section 35, Township 49 Range 27 and
the remaining 17 acre parcel is within the adjacent Section 36. These properties are located
just north of 1-75 approximately 7 miles east of Collier Blvd. (C.R. 951). Access to the area
is along private gated dirt roads. Staff has visited the properties, prepared a Criteria
Screening Report and presented this report to the CCLAAC at a public meeting. The owner
was in the process of gaining approval for a Restoration Management Plan, pursuant to TOR
transfer requirements, which would have signaled readiness to convey. That process was
halted by the owners' lack of subsequent action. An additional complication is the presence
of a cattle lease over 12 full sections and 3 half sections within North Belle Meade,
encompassing the offered parcels. This lease prevents access to the parcels for public use.
Finally, this is within the Transportation Department's study area for the Wilson Blvd.
extension and Benfield Rd. corridor and within the planning area for the County's 2030 long
range transportation needs. Acquiring lands under the TOR program presents potential
complications for developing future roads in this area. Owners have advised when general
economic conditions improve, they will again consider conveyance of these parcels to
Conservation Collier.
17
Agenda Item NO.1 OE
June 23, 2009
Page 22 of 25
Benfield Road Project
The Benfield Road Project proposal consisted of 17 contiguous parcels totaling 17.72 acres
under 6 separate ownerships within Section I, Township 50, Range 26, in Collier County.
Properties are located approximately 1.37 miles east of Collier Blvd. (C.R. 951) with direct
access from Beck Blvd., a County-maintained paved road and Benfield Road, a privately
maintained paved road. Staff has visited the properties, prepared a Criteria Screening Report
and presented this report to the CCLAAC at a public meeting. A complication associated
with this proposal is that it is within the Transportation Department's study area for the
Wilson Blvd. extension and Benfield Rd. corridor. The route for this corridor has not been
determined at present. After presentation of the Criteria Screening Report to the CCLAAC,
which was conceptually approved, the owners were asked to remove exotic plants, provide
funds to maintain exotics for five years and to provide a Phase I Environmental Site
Assessment. At the time of these requests, the owners decided to wait for the determination
of the Wilson-Benfield road corridor and evaluate whether a sale to Transportation would
better serve their interests. At that time the owners withdrew the project from the
Conservation Collier Program.
C. Offsite Monetary Payment or Preserve Conveyances
Changes were made to the Conservation and Coastal Management Element (CCME) of the
GMP as a result of a 2004 Evaluation and Appraisal Report required by the State Department
of Community Affairs. The GMP, with changes, was adopted by the BCC in May 2007.
One of these changes provided that the County would adopt land development regulations
that would allow for a process for native vegetation preservation retention requirements to be
satisfied by a monetary payment or land donation (Goal 6, Policy 6.11.V(l 0). The LDC
amendments providing for that option are currently making their way through the approval
process, with an expected final review and approval by the BCC in early 20 I O. In
anticipation of monetary payments or land conveyance proposals to Conservation Collier,
staff has been attending stakeholder meetings conducted by the Engineering and
Environmental Services Department and providing recommendations made by the Ordinance
Policy and Rules (OPR) Subcommittee of the CCLAAC. The OPR subcommittee is also
concurrently working on developing a process for accepting funds or lands under a finalized
and Board-approved LDC revision.
D. Proposed objectives of the program's seventh year
I. Secure grant funding wherever possible
2. Continue to conduct public meetings for ongoing development of Final Management
Plans
3. Continue to develop public access for acquired properties
4. Work with other County Departments to coordinate conservation land purchases with
other public needs
5. Work effectively with the Transfer of Development Rights and Offsite Vegetation
Retention Programs to review land and/or funds conveyance proposals for
recommendation to the Board.
