5. Land Development Code Section 134.2.15.L. Where existing lot width or
The City of Fort Myers Planning Board is reviewing a proposed amendment to the Land Development Code, specifically Section 134.2.15.L, concerning access point spacing on properties. This review is currently under consideration and has not yet been approved. The proposed changes address situations where lot width or environmental factors make standard access point spacing difficult, suggesting a minimum of 50 feet between pavement edges or half the lot frontage, whichever is greater. It also mandates provisions for joint-use driveways and future interconnections where feasible, requiring easements of at least 50 feet by 100 feet. This code amendment will impact future land subdivisions and lot creations, requiring internal circulation systems and restricting direct access to major roads under certain conditions. Contractors specializing in site preparation, grading, concrete work, paving, and civil engineering services may find opportunities as this code change influences future development projects. Engaging early allows businesses to understand the evolving requirements and prepare for potential work related to site access and circulation planning.

5. Land Development Code Section 138 -41(a) When required, building perimeter
This item concerns a proposed deviation from the Land Development Code regarding building perimeter plantings for a project in Fort Myers.

6. Request to deviate from LDC Sec. 134-4 which requires a 15-foot wide Type B
A request is under review by the Planning Board of the City of Fort Myers to deviate from a local code requirement. The current rule mandates a 15-foot wide buffer between commercial areas and rights-of-way, but this project seeks to use a 5-foot wide buffer instead. This change is requested for the section of the project along Rarco Boulevard. The project plans to include pedestrian connections to Colonial Boulevard and will have a 10-foot setback from existing rights-of-way. The proposal is to use a street tree buffer instead of a full screening buffer, fitting the mixed-use and walkable design. This item is currently under review, meaning plans are not yet finalized. If approved, the project would involve site preparation, landscaping, and potentially utility work related to the buffer and pedestrian connections. Contractors specializing in site prep, grading, landscaping, and potentially concrete work for sidewalks could find opportunities. Reaching out early could provide an advantage as plans develop.

6. The Planned Unit Development (PUD) shall be in effect for fifteen (15) years

V. FUTURE TRAFFIC CONDITIONS
This item concerns a traffic study for future conditions in Fort Myers, focusing on projected roadway use in 2028. The study analyzes traffic volumes based on a proposed development's impact on the surrounding road network. It details existing traffic, projected traffic in 2028 without the development, and projected traffic in 2028 with the development. The methodology for calculating these future traffic volumes, including growth rates for roadway segments, is outlined. This planning stage indicates that infrastructure planning and potential construction related to traffic flow improvements may be considered in the future. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers should monitor this item as it progresses, as future traffic mitigation or improvements could involve site clearing, grading, paving, and utility work. Early engagement with the project team could provide an advantage as plans develop.
