Lee County identifies six incorporated jurisdictions that may handle permits locally: Bonita Springs, Cape Coral, Estero, Fort Myers, Fort Myers Beach and Sanibel. Each publishes its own building or community-development destination. Fort Myers Beach states that GOVWELL is used for new permit applications from August 24, 2026 while iWorQ remains for existing records during the transition. Sanibel states that CityView covers permits since October 2025 while EnerGov covers earlier permits. A search on one system alone can miss older or transitioning records. Confirm the jurisdiction and current application path with the city or Town.
