Naples
Collier County’s Site Development Plan requirements identify a Boundary and Topographic Survey as part of the standard review documentation and specify that the survey must be less than six months old.
A Required Survey Checkpoint During Pool Construction
In the City of Naples, a residential pool project has a specific survey checkpoint during construction. After the steel and ground stage, no further construction activity is permitted until the required Spot Survey has been submitted to and approved by the City of Naples Building Department.
This means the survey is part of the construction process—not simply a document needed at the end. For homeowners and pool contractors, having the survey prepared at the required stage helps keep the project moving through the City’s inspection and approval process.

Port Charlotte Land Survey FAQ
Does a Naples pool project require a survey before construction can continue?
Yes. For private residential pools and spas, the City requires a Spot Survey and Elevation Certificate after the slab is placed, and both must be submitted and approved before construction continues.

What does a Naples pool survey need to show?
The City requires the pool site plan/survey to show property lines, setbacks, easements, pool location, crown-of-road elevation and finished-floor elevation, along with the proposed pool elevations.
I own an older Naples home and want to remodel. Could I need an Elevation Certificate?
If the property is in a Special Flood Hazard Area and the project qualifies as a substantial improvement, the City requires an Elevation Certificate or elevation survey as part of the review.
Why can elevation information be important when building or remodeling in Naples?
The City notes that the relationship between a property’s actual elevation and the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) can affect construction requirements and flood-insurance considerations. Naples also states that permitted work within the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) requires an Elevation Certificate showing compliance or the City’s applicable FEMA form.
