FORT MYERS BEACH LOCAL NEWS STORIES
Waterways and Water Quality
The City of Bonita Springs hosted “Waterways & Water Quality” at
its City Hall on Wednesday evening, October 16, before a packed room of
roughly 125 people, including approximately a dozen elected officials,
including Fort Myers Beach Vice Mayor Ray Murphy and Council member
Bruce Butcher and District 3 Lee County Commissioner Raymond Sandelli. Bonita Springs Mayor Peter Simmons moderated the expert panel of
Chauncey Goss, Board Chair of the South Florida Water Management
District; Dr. Michael Parsons from the Florida Gulf Coast University
Water School who is Director of the Vester Marine & Environmental
Science Research Field Station and a member of Governor Ron DeSantis’
Blue-Green Algae Task Force; and Sanibel Mayor Kevin Ruane, the
President of the Florida League of Mayors. Following the panel
discussion, the three took part in a question-and-answer session. FULL ARTICLE & RESOURCE
Appeal Delays Margaritaville
Construction Start Uncertain
While the Fort Myers Beach community was celebrating the first
evening of the three-day Roar Offshore Powerboat Race weekend with the
Roar Offshore Street Party downtown on Thursday, October 10, word
quickly passed through the crowd that island resident Chris Patton had
filed a last-minute appeal of the Writ of Certiorari denial by Judge
Alane C. Laboda on September 11. This action will most likely further
delay the start of construction for the Margaritaville FMB Resort at the
base of the Matanzas Pass Bridge for an undetermined period of time,
until the Florida Second District Court of Appeals can consider the
case. FULL ARTICLE & RESOURCE
