Division Duties & Background:

The Community Planning & Resiliency Division performs technical studies relating to the various needs of neighborhoods and larger unique geographic designations throughout the County. The Division oversees and contributes to the development needs of the community through capital needs planning, level of service analysis, special studies, neighborhood, and business community interactions to then propose recommendations on amendments to the Collier County Growth Management Plan (GMP), Land Development Code (LDC), and policies of the County Board of County Commissioners based upon the results of the various studies and community planning efforts. Coupled with these initiatives, the Division seeks to foster the communities’ ability to withstand, adapt, and recover from the challenges posed by various stressors such as natural disasters, social disruptions or other shocks by identifying the capacity of individuals, organizations, and systems within the community to anticipate, absorb, and bounce back from adversities while maintaining essential functions and well-being.
