The Lee County Industrial Development Authority (IDA)
The Lee County Industrial Development Authority was established in 1975 under Part
III of Chapter 159, Florida Statutes to foster and encourage industrial and business
development in Lee County, Florida. The IDA is a seven-member board appointed by
the Board of County Commissioners for Lee County. Each IDA board member is appointed
to a four-year term. The IDA encourages both companies interested in locating to
Lee County and companies presently located in Lee County to explore the use of Industrial
Development Revenue Bonds (IDRBs) to finance projects.
