Collier board approves golf course at citrus grove site

The Collier County board approved a private golf course project that will replace a citrus grove.

The decision

The board’s action allows the property to move from citrus production to use as a private golf course. The project is a local land-use decision involving the Collier County board.

What changes

The approved development would replace the existing citrus grove with a private golf course. The available details identify the project and its effect on the grove but do not establish a construction schedule or other project terms.

Why it matters

The decision changes how the site will be used in Collier County. A citrus grove is agricultural land, while a private golf course is a recreational development. The board’s approval marks the formal decision to allow that change.

What to watch

The next updates will show whether the project moves into construction and when the golf course could open. Additional county actions may also set out project requirements or timing.
