Lee County awards $991K contract to armor Punta Rassa shoreline
Published in Local Government on .
Reported by a news outlet, an official source or a public record.
Lee County commissioners approved a $991,300 low-bid contract with Fort Myers-based Earth Tech Enterprises to lay interlocking concrete mats along the shoreline by the Punta Rassa Boat Ramp, at the mainland end of the Sanibel Causeway. The mats are meant to cut erosion and wave energy; work should start late this year and finish in spring 2027. The ramp stays open during construction, though parts of the parking lot may close at times, and federal Hurricane Ian recovery grants pay for the project.
