Lee County Community Development administers County zoning and development programs. The County Permit Center and GIS include incorporated municipal boundaries, and the zoning service describes County zoning applications, public hearings and land-development standards. Do not assume a County zoning layer is current zoning for an incorporated parcel: Lee County's DCD_Zoning service labels municipal zoning layers as historic. Confirm the exact site's zoning, future land use, overlays and responsible planning authority directly with the city, Village, Town or County before advising on eligibility.
