The utilities department issues all water-related information that affects residents: water quality reports, boil water notices, etc. Residents are encouraged to submit service requests through a Request For Action

The water supply offered by Gateway Services CDD is provided by Lee County through an interlocal agreement. Boil water notices are therefore issued due to County water main breaks affecting our service area. The City of Fort Myers is not the District’s water supplier.
