l. Building or land alteration permit and certificate of occupancy compliance process.

Code Enforcement Board Meeting · 2026-04-23 · agenda_item

Collier County is reviewing its processes for building and land alteration permits. This review focuses on ensuring that all permit applications, including those for clearing, excavation, site development, agricultural clearing, and blasting, align with zoning and land development regulations. The County Manager or a designee is responsible for approving these permits, with oversight from the Board of Zoning Appeals or a court. The review also addresses the prohibition of site work, grading, or construction before a building permit is issued, though exceptions may be granted for approved subdivision or site development plans related to on-site fill distribution or water management systems. This process is currently under review, indicating an early stage for potential involvement. The work could involve site clearing, grading, utility installation, and construction, depending on the specific permits applied for. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers in site preparation, grading, and general construction may find opportunities by engaging early before final plans and permits are established.
