Swelland’s construction services

08/28/2026

Last Friday of the month and we join forces to work with Charlotte County Community Development

Building Industry Oversight Committee (BIOC) is a monthly meeting of construction industry leaders with vital government entities that help homeowners build the American dream so they can enjoy their slice of paradise.

This is a monthly meeting that helps keep the building industry, community development with planning & zoning, permitting and inspecting and utilities communicating to keep the flow of new construction as smooth as it can be, especially through these volatile times. This meeting is chaired by CDBIA President Shan Swelland, Swelland’s construction services.

Today we discussed scrub jays and the Habitat Conservation Plan unique to Charlotte County, permitting, hurricane repairs and unlicensed activity.

CCU mentioned they will be sending notices for unpaid water bills. There is assistance with a hardship program available by calling Charlotte County Human Services. If you are interested in supporting this fund, you can contact CCU to help assist some of the families that may need a handup.

The BIOC meeting helps us have conversations to make sure we are able work together for those who want to build and rebuild.
