What building in Windsor actually involves

The ground
Upland sand with cypress and hardwood swamp at the lake edge, so the transition from firm to unbuildable ground is abrupt.
The water
Newnans Lake is shallow with a soft organic bottom — pile depth for any dock is driven by finding bearing well below the mud line.
The building stock
A scattering of rural and lakefront homes on large parcels.
The rules
Permits run through Alachua County Building Department, and county permitting with wetland and shoreline setbacks that materially reduce the buildable envelope.
