The Board of County Commissioners (BCC),​is​the​ex-officio​governing​Board​of​the​CRA.​ On March 14, 2000, the BCC adopted Resolutions 2000-82 and 2000-83, establishing the Collier County CRA and identifying two areas within unincorporated Collier County as areas in need of redevelopment. On June 13, 2000 the BCC adopted Resolution 2000-181 adopting the Community Redevelopment. The Plan lays out the framework of goals, objectives, and strategies to support the community vision.​​The​first​amendment​to​the​plan​was​approved​on​ April 23, 2019. In 2016, Resolution 2016-198 was adopted to revise the bylaws to clarify​the​membership​and​terms​of​office​of​the​Immokalee​Local​ Redevelopment Advisory Board. The purpose of this nine-member committee is to be the primary vehicle for community and professional input to the CRA for matters relating to the Immokalee Redevelopment Area. Terms are for three years. How is CRA funding created? Property values in the CRA are capped, or frozen, at the assessed value for an established base year (2000). Thereafter, any tax revenues due to increases in property values in excess of the base are dedicated to the redevelopment area. The generated revenue is known as tax increment and is used in the Immokalee CRA to leverage its redevelopment efforts. What is a CRA? 3.B.1.a Packet Pg. 62 Attachment: Immokalee CRA 2020 Annual Report (15430 : Immokalee CRA) Immokalee CRA Annual Report 2020 9 Immokalee CRA Since the adoption of the 2000 Redevelopment Plan, much has changed within the Immokalee redevelopment​area.​In​April​2019,​the​first​ amendment of the redevelopment plan focused on the Bayshore Gateway Triangle redevelopment area. The Board directed staff to update the plan to​reflect​the​changes​and​needs​in​the​Immokalee​ Community Redevelopment Area. Johnson Engineering was hired to provide planning support services for the Immokalee Community Redevelopment Plan Update. Their proposal of $79,710 is based on planning support services for the CRA staff’s update to the plan. Staff issued the Notice to Proceed to Johnson Engineering on December 1, 2020.

The ordinance provides an alternative to paying impact fees in full as a prerequisite for the issuance of a Certificate​of​Occupancy.​ A fee payer may pay impact fees in installments rather than a lump sum by entering into an impact fee installment payment program agreement with Collier County. This arrangement allows installment payments as a special assessment levied as non-ad valorem tax against the subject property. The program took effect October 1, 2017. Low Tax Opportunity Zones, established by the federal Tax Cut and Jobs Act of 2017, encourage long-term investment and job creation in targeted communities by reducing taxes for many job creators. They enhance the ability to attract businesses, developers and financial​institutions​to​invest​in​targeted​areas​ by allowing investors to defer capital gains taxes through investments in federally established Opportunity Funds. These zones allow private investors to support distressed communities through private equity investment in business and real estate ventures. The incentive is deferral, reduction and potential elimination of certain federal capital gains taxes. U.S. investors hold trillions of dollars in unrealized capital gains in stocks and mutual funds​alone,​a​significant​untapped​resource​ for economic development. Immokalee has 3 Census Tracts included in the Opportunity Zone. The Immokalee airport has parcels of shovel- ready land in the Opportunity Zone.

Immokalee was also included in the 2020 FHERO guide. In accordance with Objective 1.2 in the Immokalee Area Master​Plan,​the​CRA​continued​to​provide​financial​ incentives to businesses in Immokalee via the Commercial Façade Improvement Grant program.
