Local Housing Assistance Plan

The Local Housing Assistance Plan (LHAP) was prepared for the county's participation in the State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) program, in compliance with Florida Statute 420.907 and Florida Administrative Code Rule 67-37. The program is administered by the Lee County Department of Community Development, which also oversees the local government comprehensive plan, zoning, permitting, and environmental resources services. Lee County’s SHIP program provides funding and technical assistance to nonprofit housing development organizations and down payment/closing cost assistance to qualified homebuyers. The Lee County Affordable Housing Advisory Committee, which is comprised of members of various professions or fields of interest each with a relevance to affordable housing needs, makes recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners about the implementation of the SHIP program.
