Lee Board of County Commissioners · 2026-06-02 · agenda_item

Lee County is planning to acquire utility easements for the Billy Creek Septic Conversion Project. This project is currently in the design phase and aims to reduce nutrient loading into local waters and improve water quality. The county plans to purchase a perpetual utility easement covering approximately 49,004 square feet and a temporary easement at 8771 Ortiz Circle. The estimated cost for the easement rights is $2,800, with an additional $1,500 for closing costs, totaling $4,300. This project will involve site work related to utility infrastructure and potentially stormwater management as it moves through design and into construction phases. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers should consider reaching out to Lee County to learn more about potential opportunities as the project progresses through its design and permitting stages.
