Life on Fort Myers Beach

TOP NEWS STORIES

Liki Tiki Music, Downtown Sidewalks
The Fort Myers Beach Local Planning Agency (LPA) approved a Special Exception to the Commercial Planned Development for the Liki Tiki bar and restaurant that would allow outdoor music under the tiki hut installed last year. The board also unanimously approved a Capital Improvement Plan that would add sidewalks on both sides of the street from Crescent to Old San Carlos Blvd. Kalyani Bhutada, new with the Town’s Planning Services, introduced the Liki Tiki’s request to allow live outdoor entertainment from 5 – 9pm daily. The property owner Goran Stojkoski told the LPA he approached the town about an “entertainment license” when he purchased the property during the summer of 2018 and was told the town did not require one. “As soon as it was brought to my attention, we applied immediately,” he explained, referring to the special exception to allow outdoor music.  FULL ARTICLE


First Fort Myers Beach Turtle Nest
Image result for sea turtles“We have our first Fort Myers Beach turtle nest for this season, so Wahoo!” exclaimed Eve Haverfield, founder of Turtle Time, Inc., a non-profit established in 1989 to benefit nesting marine turtles on Big Hickory Island and Bonita, Bunche and Fort Myers Beaches. “We discovered it Monday morning, May 13, near mid-island, so it is fantastic we finally have a nest! It’s about time, as we already have 18 on Bonita Beach! Eve reported that “the first FMB nest equates well with 2017, as our initial one was May 11. Last year, our first was May 1, but we had a big gap until our second on May 16. At this same point on Bonita Beach for the last two seasons, we only had five each year.” In 2018, Turtle Time had 297 total nests, including 68 on Fort Myers Beach; 2017 is the benchmark year, with 327 total nests and the FMB record of 99.  FULL ARTICLE
