Agenda 06/24/2008 Item #16E 3 Agenda Item No. 16E3 June 24, 2008 Page 1 of 15 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to approve an Agreement for Sale and Purchase with Stiffler Specialties, Inc., for 1.14 acres under the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Program, at a cost not to exceed $18,700. OBJECTIVE: To obtain approval from the Board of County Commissioners for execution of the attached Agreement for Sale and Purchase (Agreement) between the Board of County Commissioners (Board) and Stiffler Specialties, Inc. (Seller). CONSIDERATIONS: On January 27, 2004, Agenda Item 10A, the Board approved a Collier Conservation 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 (Project), properties as they become available and to bring these contracts back to the Board for final approval. Staff has actively pursued acquiring parcels within the Project. However, on September 26, 2006, Agenda Item 10G, the Board directed staff to discontinue buying properties within the Project, due to rising properly costs. On January 29, 2008, Agenda Item 10F, the Board accepted CCLAAC's recommended AAL reactivating and placing the Project on the "A" list. Staff contracted with two independent, state-certified, general real estate appraisers to appraise all parcels within the Project. The appraisers based their analysis on comparable sales from wetland, not upland parcels, preferably within the Project boundaries. The averaged appraised value for all parcels is $15,842 an acre. The Seller's property contains 1.14 acres and is located within the Project, also known in the Conservation Collier Program as the Red Maple Swamp Preserve. The land cost for the 1,14 acre parcel is $18,060. The attached Agreement provides that should the County elect not to close this transaction for any reason, except for default by the Seller, the County will pay the Seller $90.30 in liquidated damages. The CCLAAC approved this transaction on June g, 2008, and voted to recommend Board approval and execution of the attached Agreement. 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 $18,700 ($18,060 for the property, and approximately $640 for the title commitment, title policy, and recording of documents). The funds will be withdrawn from the Conservation Collier Trust Fund (172). As of June 9,2008, property costs for Conservation Collier properties, including this properly and those under contract, total $63,583,576. 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. Agenda Item No. 16E3 June 24, 2008 Page 2 of 15 LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The Conservation Collier Ordinance (2007-65) provides a legal framework for property acquisition for the Conservation Collier Program. The process for acquiring this property falls within the legal framework of Ordinance 2007-65. The Agreement has been reviewed and approved by the County Attorney's Office. - JAB RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff is recommending that the Board of County Commissioners: 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.

These parcels were 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 285 acres and, including this parcel, there are currently 118.62 acreS either acquired, under contract or pending acceptance of offers to owners. Although the unit has been platted for single- family home development, at present there are no homes, paved streets or electric service. A search of County permit files shows no permits are under review as of May 15, 2008, however this area is vulnerable to development for single-family residences and permits could be issued at any time. 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 an historic farm field (approximately 100 acres). Soils, hydro logy 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 (7-14 inches per year). 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 adj acent 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 were observed on site. NGGE Unit 53 is connected on its north and west sides with 60,000 acres of conservation lands that are part of a regionally important watershed and to the southwest with nearly 35 additional sections of lands having varying levels of environmental protection. Surrounding lands include South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) lands, the Corkscrew Regional Ecosystem Watershed (CREW) Trust conservation lands, the Audubon Corkscrew Sanctuary and private mitigation lands. Acquisition ofNGGE Unit 53 would enhance, protect, buffer these lands and provide public access to adjoining Bird Rookery Swamp, where a 1,200-foot boardwalk has been built and nearly 5 miles of hiking trails have already been created. Staff is working with the SFWMD and Parks and Recreation Department staff to develop a partnership for access and management ofthese recreational amenities. Proiected Manal!ement Activities: Removal of exotic plants, grading out portions of existing limerock roads (except for those 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. 2 CONSERVATION COLLIER Property Identification No. 39492280001 Agenda Item No. 16E3 June 24, 2008 Page 8 of 15 title shall be deemed acceptable.
