Unincorporated Lee County’s electronic plan submittal portal

Lee County ePlan will allow contractors, who are registered in Lee County, to submit and receive permits and plans through our system, therefore reducing the paper, fuel, and time expenses associated with permitting.

Step 1 - Register

Each User will be required to complete a Lee County User/Contractor Agreement, which is an agreement between Lee County and a user to send and receive documents through our system. Upon acceptance of the agreement by Lee County, a user will receive an invitation by email into Lee County ePlan; this invitation will contain installation directions, a temporary password, and further instructions on creating a secure profile. Initially a user will only have access to one project ‘Lee County Users Guide to ePlan’ which contains directions and downloadable permit applications.

Step 2 – Submit Applications by email / Upload plans and permitting documents

To begin using ePlan to pull a permit, you must first email a completed permit application to ePlan@leegov.com (hint: click the ‘Submit’ button at the top of the application to auto-email the application). Please only email the application to us. When the Permitting Department receives your application we will create a project in ePlan and notify you by email when it is time for you to upload your plans and permitting documents into the project. Plan review fees will also be due at this time. Please follow the ‘File formats’ document when uploading documents and submitting revisions.

Step 3 – Pay Permit Fees when the permit is Approved

Lee County and the Fire Department will review the documents submitted, if they are approved, Lee County will notify you by email when your permit is ready for payment.  If any other documents (like an NOC) are needed you will also be informed to upload those documents at this time.  If your plans are rejected please follow the ‘How to Resubmit Plan Corrections after a Rejection’ section of the ‘File Formats’ document.

Step 4 – Printing your permit and approved plans

After receipt of all additional documents and permit fees, Lee County will make your permit and approved plans available for you to print from the ‘Print Permit and Drawings Here’ folder of your project in ePlan.

There are two types of users who can be invited to projects.   Contractors and his /her authorized signers are ‘Authorized Users’.  Other users of the system (such as Engineers, Architects, Truss Suppliers, etc) who are not authorized to sign for a contractor (pick up permits) are ‘External Users’.  Both types of users must have a Lee County ePlan Agreement on file.   Permit applications contain a section to list the Authorized Users and External Users which should be invited to a permit project.
