How to use this

Utility pages stay canonical

Southwest Florida works as a metro support layer because adjacent county utilities use different portal, approved-list, and annual-testing workflows while serving the same demand region. This page groups those surfaces without flattening them into a fake single authority.

Use this metro page to compare nearby utility workflows and public provider options, then drop into the exact utility page before acting on a compliance step.
