Council Divided on Noise Ordinance
If the updated proposal to the Town’s Noise Ordinance
were already in effect when Council met on Tuesday morning, February 19,
Town Hall neighbors may have made the first complaint, as the debate at
times grew loud! Council considered the First Reading of the Amended Noise Ordinance
under “Public Hearings” for “excessive noise defined as a violation when
any sound is audible to Code Compliance Officials while standing or in a
vehicle with engine off and windows rolled down in excess of 1,000 feet
or more from the noise generating property’s adjacent closest property
line between 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. “This proposed change,” said Town Manager Roger Hernstadt, “is for
the benefit of all Code Enforcement Officers, whether Lee County
Sheriffs or Town Code Enforcement who may not have a decibel meter,
proper training, or it does not work. Everyone has a cell phone with a
GPS to establish distance from a property, a voice recorder to capture
the sound, with time notation for an adequate record if enforcement is
necessary.” FULL ARTICLE
Free Park Programs Offer Variety
The weather was cool and overcast as 12 hardy souls attended the free “Bowditch Point Park” Interpretive Walk at the 17-acre natural gem at the northern tip of Estero Island, managed by Lee County Parks & Recreation, but by the time we finished 90 minutes later, skies were clear and temperatures warm. Barry Fulmer, a 4-year volunteer originally from New Jersey, led our program that began at the pavilion. Area parks offer a variety of free nature walks during season. Bowditch Point Park was my destination for this article. Lee County purchased the park site in 1987, broke ground in 1992, and hosted the grand opening in February 1994. It was the last remaining undeveloped land on Estero Island with a shoreline on the Gulf and Back Bay. It is home to dredging spoil piles from Matanzas Pass that make it the highest elevation on Estero Island at 22 feet above sea level. “Seven acres feature manmade developments like the pavilion and restroom,” said Barry, “with the remaining ten in its natural state.” FULL ARTICLE
