What happened?
Gulf Coast News reports the North 3 phase of Cape Coral’s Utilities Extension Project is 98 percent designed and moving toward construction in the Burnt Store area. Residents told the station they could face roughly $20,000 to $35,000 in assessments to connect to city water, sewer, and irrigation, while the overall phase is estimated at about $410 million. Some homeowners say the cost and disruption are serious enough that they are listing their homes before construction begins.
