A proposal is under review to develop a publicly accessible conservation asset. The project is located within Collier County and is planned for property designated as Conservation (C) and Rural Fringe Mixed Use District, Neutral Lands (RF-Neutral). The Conservation designation area is intended to conserve natural resources and enhance habitat preservation, conservation, and passive recreation. The RF-Neutral area is planned for staff housing and maintenance facilities to support conservation and passive recreation uses. This item is currently under review by the Hearing Examiner. The project scope would likely involve site preparation, habitat restoration, construction of staff housing and maintenance facilities, and landscaping. Contractors specializing in site work, environmental services, building construction, and landscaping may find opportunities as the project moves forward. Early engagement is advised before final plans and permits are established.
