Lee Board of County Commissioners · 2026-05-05 · agenda_item

The Lee Board of County Commissioners is considering a submerged land lease for the Fort Myers Beach Pier. This lease, proposed for a twenty-five year term starting November 18, 2026, would allow for the construction and operation of a public fishing pier. The project involves 34,288 square feet of submerged land. This item is currently under review by the Board of County Commissioners. If approved, the project would involve site preparation for pier construction, followed by the installation of the pier structure itself. Final phases would include any necessary operational setup for the pier. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to engage early, as this project is in the planning stages before site plans, bids, and permits are finalized. Early engagement can provide a competitive advantage for businesses interested in potential work related to this public pier development.
