Impact Fees
Impact fees are assessed for new development and changes of occupancy. They are assessed either at time of building permit issuance, move-in permits for mobile homes, or development order issuance for recreational vehicle parks. More information regarding impact fees can be found in Chapter 2 of the Land Development Code. An impact letter is required as part of your permit application. Use the links below to access the current Unincorporated Lee County impact fee schedule.
Please email the Impact Fee Coordinator if you have specific impact fee questions.
Solid Waste Assessment
Before a Certificate of Occupancy on a residential dwelling can be issued, the builder or owner is required to pay the annual Solid Waste Assessment for a residential dwelling (four units or less). Please visit the Solid Waste Assessment webpage for more information.
