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

The Lee Board of County Commissioners is planning enhancements for the Pine Island Flatwoods Preserve. This project involves hydrologic improvements to the former shrimp pond area. Work will include site clearing, excavating existing ponds, building two weirs, constructing a 100-foot earthen berm, re-contouring the pond area for stormwater management, and moving and storing removed vegetation. This project is planned and budgeted, with funding from the Coastal and Heartland National Estuary Partnership (CHNEP) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The project is early in the public process, having been approved by the Board of County Commissioners. The scope of work involves site preparation, grading, excavation, and potentially landscaping and hauling services. Contractors specializing in site clearing, grading, excavation, and environmental restoration could find opportunities. Reaching out early, before final bids and permits are settled, offers the best advantage for local businesses.
