The town will be named after nearby Big Cypress National Preserve.

On June 27, 2023 Collier County gave the project its final approval. Despite this, a 2024 ruling by Federal Judge Randolph Moss has stalled the development of Bellmar, citing that its construction violates the Endangered Species Act.
