The City of Fort Myers Planning Board is reviewing the adoption of its Capital Improvement Element. This element guides the City's plans for public facilities and ensures adequate service levels are maintained. It includes projects to rehabilitate or replace worn-out facilities and construct new ones to meet future demands. The plan also involves monitoring roadway impacts and coordinating with the Florida Department of Transportation. City staff will analyze proposed land use changes for their impact on public facilities and identify funding sources. This review process is early, meaning contractors, suppliers, and service providers can engage now. The work could involve site preparation, utility upgrades, road improvements, and construction of new facilities. Early engagement allows businesses to prepare for potential future bids and opportunities as plans develop.
