Cape targets builder for delays in building homes
The city of Cape Coral is cracking down on a major homebuilder for delays in starting dozens of homes, but the builder says its problems are largely the fault of a bank that stopped financing 380 of them.
Last week, city officials stopped issuing permits for Cape-based Hansen Homes because of a backlog of permit applications that had piled up but hadn’t been picked up or paid for, city spokeswoman Connie Barron said Thursday.
