Conditions of Approval for HD-2007-AR-11828
1. The existing specimen plants and trees on Lot 5, and the Caribbean Gardens
GatehouselGift Shop and outhouse (8CR972) listed on the attached map (Exhibit
A to the Resolution) shall be this historic designation. These plants and trees shall
be maintained and labeled, as appropriate, historic by the Naples Zoo. In the
event of a natural disaster the Naples Zoo shall not be required to replant a
similar species unless it is at the discretion of the Naples Zoo and/or Collier
County.
2. The fIrst clearing for the proposed redevelopment of the Naples Zoo in the
vicinity of the Nehrling House Site (8CR974), and Slathouse (8CR975), indicated
on the site plan (Exhibit A to the Resolution) shall be monitored by a certified
archaeologist. In the event that artifacts are found. such artifacts are the property
of Collier County. The display of any historic artifact would be at the Collier
County Museum unless the Naples Zoo utilizes the GatehouselGift Shop as a
museum, then they can be displayed on-site.
3. The HAPB assumes that the Naples Zoo shall have no financial obligations as a
result of designating the qualifying specimen plants and trees and the Caribbean
Gardens Gatehouse/Gift Shop and outhouse as significantly historic. As funds are
appropriated, the Caribbean Gardens Gatehouse/Gift Shop (8CR972) and its
outbuildings shall be preserved. Providing public use is preferred. Consideration
should be given to using the building as a museum to interpret the Nehrling,
Fleischmann and Tetzlaff legacies. However, the execution of some of the
recommendations will require identification and securing of funding sources. No
time or schedule is associated with any recommendations made by the
Preservation Board. While either the County or the Naples Zoo may contribute
funds directly to these projects, neither is required to do so.
4. If preservation of the Caribbean Gardens Gatehouse/Gift Shop and its
outbuildings in its original location as depicted on Exhibit A to the Resolution is
not feasible then it should be relocated and restored. In this last resort. the
structure(s) should be moved to a location as close as possible to the original site
while maintaining their original spatial relations as much as possible.
5. Management of the archaeological and historic resources listed on Exhibit A to
the Resolution shall comply with the provisions of the Collier County Land
Development Code.
6. Transportation Services Division shall be granted an unconditional exemption
from having to obtain a Certificate of Appropriateness for road improvements
related to the North-South service road, which runs parallel to Goodlette-Frank
Road (CR-851). The Moreton Bay fig (Ficus macrophylla) and the Padauk tree
(Pterocarpus macrocarpus) (as depicted on Exhibit A to the Resolution),
juxtaposed to the proposed road alignment in the existing North Parking Lot,
shall be preserved to the maximum extent possible.
7. Figure 29 on page 38 of "A Cultural Landscape Assessment of the Nehrling
Portion of the Naples Zoo Property, Collier County, Florida" shall not be
displayed by Collier County absent an explanatory discussion of the swastika
symbol.
