Understanding Lee County Building Conditions

Building in Lee County involves navigating factors that must be addressed early in the process, including:

  • Flood zone and elevation requirements in coastal and low-lying areas
  • Varying zoning and land-use regulations by municipality
  • Environmental and coastal permitting requirements
  • Site-specific conditions affecting access, drainage, and foundations
