15. Modify Cape Coral Recreation Center and Disaster Shelter CDBG-DR Project Scope
The Lee Board of County Commissioners has approved a modification to the Cape Coral Recreation Center and Disaster Shelter project. This project, initially planned as a Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) initiative, will now focus on the recreation center aspect, removing the disaster shelter component due to significant cost impacts from elevation requirements. The facility will serve as a refuge of last resort, offering limited protection during emergencies. The project is moving forward with an approved scope, and while specific construction timelines are not yet detailed, the modification implies that site preparation, utility work, and vertical construction will be necessary. This presents an opportunity for general contractors, site prep and grading services, concrete and masonry providers, and those in the electrical, plumbing, and HVAC trades. Early engagement with the county's Facilities Construction and Management department could provide insight into upcoming bid processes and permit applications.

24. Approve Sole Source Agreement for Purchase of Volvo Equipment Parts and Service
Lee County is planning to approve a sole source agreement for Volvo equipment parts and service. This agreement, with Alta Construction Equipment Company, is for one year and has a not-to-exceed amount of $700,000.00. The county uses this sole source method because Alta is the only authorized dealer in the region with the necessary proprietary diagnostic software for Volvo machinery. Lee County Solid Waste operates 25 Volvo machines critical for waste hauling and emergency response. This agreement will cover complex repairs, specialized parts, and warranty-specific expertise, supplementing in-house routine maintenance. The approval process is currently planned, with a vote already carried by the Board of County Commissioners. This project would involve the supply of proprietary parts and specialized repair services for existing county machinery. Businesses that supply heavy equipment parts, provide specialized repair services, or offer diagnostic software for heavy machinery could find opportunities. Early engagement with county fleet management or solid waste departments may provide insight into future needs as this agreement is put into place.
