Lots near the Weeki Wachee River and its spring system often involve several special considerations. FEMA flood zone designations are common in the river's floodplain, requiring elevated home construction. Environmental setbacks from the river's shoreline and adjacent wetlands reduce the buildable area of waterfront lots. Southwest Florida Water Management District permits may be required for lots near the waterway.
