Lee Board of County Commissioners · 2026-04-21 · agenda_item

The Lee Board of County Commissioners is considering how to use $2,248,632.33 in Hurricane Ian Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) mitigation funds. This funding is intended to help pay for projects that were awarded money through the FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant Program. Specifically, the plan would increase the CDBG-DR awards for the Sanibel Fire Station 171 and Matlacha Pine Island Fire Station 2 projects. This item is currently under review by the Board. If approved, this could lead to work including construction, site preparation, and specialized trades for the fire stations. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers interested in potential future work should monitor this item as it moves through the review process. Early awareness allows businesses to prepare and potentially engage before final bids and permits are issued.
