Yup.
We've learned all of that, even where there are no codes, ordnances, etc.
I have already contacted the county, and I have emailed the chamber of commerce to get a list of contacts for the city.
Having dealt with the USACE concerning use of one of their lakes, I was surprised when the County Public Works guy in charge of waterways said it was OK for private citizens to clean-up/dredge canals.

Unrelated, but related, here's something about credit scores.
A year and a half ago I contacted Lendingtree to get quotes to refinance a real estate "business" loan. 9 lenders pulled our credit and because of that each of our credit scores took a big hit, more than 50 points. "Too many inquiries" We found that out when we wound up refinancing it right where it is, our local bank. So, don't buy lendingtree's "make lenders compete for your business" line.
This time only one lender has pulled our credit, and we each got a copy of the three scores. They not only have recovered, but are well above what they were 2 years ago, almost as high as they can be.
So, if you are considering financing, or refinancing, don't give anyone your personal information until they tell you rates and so forth. Tell them what your scores are and have them tell you what they can do for you. Then let just one, or two pull your credit.

, but when I first started visiting areas like FMB, Bonita Beach, Bonita Springs, etc. it was just a sleepy fishing and beach area where you very seldom heard a siren.
