e. Project Summary: Page 5 of 18
Bayview Park currently consists of an existing boat ramp and boat dock with parking lot, picnic pavilions, restrooms and
playground. Co1Jier County's scope of work associated with this project includes: professional design engineering and
permitting services, to redesign and expand the existing parking lot. complete replacement of the existing seawall, re-
construction of the existing dual-lane boat ramp to be replaced with a newly constructed tri-lane boat ramp, site starn1 water
management plan, replacement of the existing boat docks and the installation of newly designed boat docks, installation of kayak
and canoe launching pad, new landscaping, and new informational & educational signage.
This park site is heavily utilized by citizens throughout Collier County and is considered a preferred site due to its unique
location within Naples Bay waters, and boundaries of the county. The park has been in existence for more than three decades
and this particular park site is the only County-ovmed boat ramp location within a 15 mile radius. The typical usage of this boat
ramp far exceeds the intended design capacity by a marginal percentage of 100% causing many frequent boaters to park along the
street sides creating what is commonly viewed as an extremely hazardous safety condition. Other governmental agencies such as
Fish & \Villi Life Services and the Sheliffs Department. heavily depend on this boat ramp for immediate access into Naples Bay.
Due to the increase in population growth throughout Collier County, this park site has experienced a dramatic increase in usage.
The demand from the general public for the expansion of this park remains on a high priority status for the County. Upon final
completion of the project the facility \}.,rill provide 80 new parking accommodations. one new launch lane, 140 feet of increased
dock loading space, increased safety standards, and educational signs regarding education on manatee & seagrass protection,
recreational boater safety practices and site specific maps that define existing sea grass beds.
The funds Collier County is requesting will help offset the costs of the new boat launch site and the new loading and off loading
dock space. These two projects will greatly increase the efficiency and safety of boaters and allow them to arrive at their
destination in a more efficient manor.

IV - PROJECT DESCRIPTION
a. List Primary Need for Project:
l8J Safety
o Age-end of Useful Life
o Environmental Needs of the Area
o Other:
l8J High Demand by Users
o Recommended by FWC Staff
o Lack afIn-house Capability
b. Need Statement:
The primary' objective of this project is addressing the urgent need to resolve existing safety related issues and the
overwhelming demands for adequate access to the v.,'aterways from the general public. Bayview Park site is heavily
utilized on a daily basis exceeding the maximum functional capacity of the existing design layout. Currently, there are
only two boat launching sites, 60 feet of unloading and loading dock space and sixteen trailer parking spaces.
The funds Collier County is requesting will help offset the costs of the new boat launch site and the new loading and off
loading dock space. The current dock space only allows for two to three boats to park at one time. During peak hours,
boats begin line up and block the canal and stop traffic from exiting. The new dock space is going to increase dramatically
from 60 feet to 200 feet. Allowing for boaters to safely move off to the side of the canal and load Of unload. These two
projects will greatly increase the efficiency and safety" of boaters and allow them to arrive at their destination in a more
efficient manner.
c. Project Tasks:
The Tasks listed below are for the v"ho1c Bayview Project. The FBIP funds requested will assist with Task 4 and 6.
Task 1 - Provide professional design engineering and pennitting services for the expansion and development of the site,
Task 2 ~ Site demolition, clearing and preparation,
Task 3 - Remove existing seawal1 and replace with nev,' concrete seawall structure,
Task 4 - Remove existing dual-lane boat ramp and replace \\/ith new tripp]e-Iane concreate boat ramp,
Task 5 - Expand existing parking lot with new asphalt paving to include on and off site properties,
Task 6 - Construct new wood boat docks with \I,.'ood decking and wood & concrete pilings,
Task 7 - Construct new kayak/canoe launching pad with elliptical concrete ramp,
Task 8 - Install landscape and ilTigation system,
Task 9 - Install information kiosk and educational signage.
d. Project Benefits:
The project will substantially enhance boating in the community by greatly improving the existing site conditions,
provideing maximum layout & functionality. and incrcasing the sufficiency for direct access to the water\vays. The
increase in population throughout Collier County has raised the demands for sufficient public boat launching facilities.
The growth management plan for Collier County mandates the County to provide adequate access to these water ways.
Cun'ent!y, Collier County has over 24,000 registercd boaters. The expansion of Bay view Park site will enhance the
existing facilities, increase the amenities and substantially improve direct access to Naples Bay and the sun-ounding water
ways. The historical data of the high usage of this site clearly demonstrates that the demands are on a continual rise,
whereas the existing congested parking conditions are currently creating liability concems and extremely hazardous safety
conditions. The expansion of this site will indeed eliminate the exposed liability issues and provide safer conditions to the
general public.

XI - ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
YES NO
a. Will the project significantly or adversely affect the environment? 0 I2SJ
b. If Yes, please explain key issues and describe any mitigation actions proposed.
This project will not negatively affect the environment. There are no mitigation requirements for this project from FDEP and it
does comply with the Manatee Protection Plan.
On both sides of the channel leading out into Gordon Pass are two seagrass beds. These beds consist of paddle grass
(Halophila decipiens) and shoal grass (Halodulewrightii) species. Within the last year a private developer, developed the lot
opposite the two boat launch sites and part of their mitigation was to install channel markers. Collier County partnered with
the City of Naples on design of new site specific maps depicting the channel and kid friendly signage.
The idea of kid friendly signage has been used at other Collier Park locations for Gopher Tortoise awareness, and has proven
to be a huge success. The signage at Bayview Park will be posted at the end of the Park and visible for all boaters leaving the
Park. It is our hope that children will advise their parents to stay within the marked channel. Please see attached signage.
Agenda Item No. 16014
May 13, 2008
Page 12 of 18
XlI - BOATER SAFETY
a. Explain how the project may affect boater safety whether positively or negatively.
The improvements at Bayview Park site will greatly increase boater safety. Collier County has over 24,000 registered boaters
and only 4 public boat ramps. Bayview Park boat ramp provides direct access to Gordon River in Naples Bay, a major boating
channel that provides access to Keywadin ]Sland, a popular weekend destination, and direct access to the Gulf.
Bayview Park is operating over its capacity on a daily basis. Currently, Bayview Park only has 16 trailer parking sites and two
launching sites; this creates long lines and dangerous parking situations along side roads. Also, the current docks for loading
and unloading are only 60 feet in length; this provides only two or three boats access for loading or unloading. On weekends
this becomes a hazardous situation because boats begin to line up and cause congestion in the canal.
Expanding Bayview Park will eliminate the congestion, hazardous parking and unsafe boating situations. It will also allow
more spaces for law enforcement, Florida Fish and Wildlife officer and County Sheriff officers quick and easy access to
Naples Bay.
The improvement plans will allow for 80 more trailer parking sites, one more boat launch site, an additional 140 feet of loading
and unloading dock space and increased education through an informational kiosk. Collier County has already partnered with
the City of Naples and funded the installation of a site specific map on the existing scagrass beds and a more kid friendly
signage asking boaters to "please stay in marked channel" (please see attached).
All of these improvements to the Bayview Park site will greatly increase boater safety with an increase in safe parking areas,
loading and unloading facilities, an additional launch site and public awareness through education.
