Lee County does not make decisions regarding the disposition of property within mobile home communities. A property owner does not need a determination or permission from Lee County to demolish a structure if they so desire. If a property owner seeks demolition of their structure, a Lee County demolition permit is required.

 If a property owner seeks to remodel or rehabilitate a structure that sustained storm damage, a Lee County building permit is required. If a property is located within a special flood hazard area, the FEMA 50% rule must be complied with. Under the 50% rule, if there is a substantial damage determination made through the permitting process, the property owner is required to bring the building into compliance with current flood prevention regulations including elevation above base flood. The substantial damage determination is based on a comparison of the cost estimate of the work required to restore the building to its pre-damage condition to the market value of the building (excluding land value). When the cost to repair equals or exceeds 50 percent of the market value of the building, the work is repair of substantial damage and current flood plain regulations must be complied with.  

For more information on the 50% rule, visit http://www.leegov.com/dcd/flood/building/improvements
