5. Land Development Code Section 134.2.15.L. Where existing lot width or
The City of Fort Myers Planning Board is reviewing a proposed amendment to the Land Development Code, specifically Section 134.2.15.L, concerning access point spacing on properties. This review is currently under consideration and has not yet been approved.

6. Request to deviate from LDC Sec. 134-4 which requires a 15-foot wide Type B
A request is under review by the Planning Board of the City of Fort Myers to deviate from a local code requirement. The current rule mandates a 15-foot wide buffer between commercial areas and rights-of-way, but this project seeks to use a 5-foot wide buffer instead.
