11. County Manager's Report

Board of County Commissioners Meeting · 2026-05-12 · agenda_item

Collier County is considering expanding the Collier County Landfill to the East, known as Option I. This expansion is planned in three phases. The county is also reviewing the 166.63-acre Smits property, located south of Sabal Palm Road, about 1.5 miles east of Collier Boulevard, for potential acquisition. The Smits property is being considered for its conservation value and potential land acquisition. This item is currently under review by the Board of County Commissioners. The project would likely involve site clearing and grading, extensive earthwork, and potentially new construction for landfill operations. Future phases could include utility work and specialized landfill infrastructure. Contractors specializing in heavy civil construction, site preparation, and landfill operations may find opportunities as this project moves forward. Early engagement is advised before final plans and permits are established.
