Permits the City of Fort Myers issues for one- and two-family homes inside city limits: re-roofs, air-conditioner change-outs, plumbing, electrical, solar, windows, doors and shutters, pools, fences, screen enclosures and new houses. Commercial and multi-family permits, signs, events and right-of-way work are not counted. Unincorporated Lee County, Cape Coral, Bonita Springs and Estero run their own permit offices and are not in this file.
Counts are permits, not jobs: one job can need several permits. Nobody paid to be on this page and nobody can. Sources and definitions →
