First stage done for Bonita beach restoration

July 31, 2013
By BOB PETCHER (rpetcher@breezenewspapers.com) , Fort Myers Beach Bulletin, Fort Myers Beach Observer
A 34-acre beach park on the northern end of Big Hickory Island has received some much needed sand placement relief. A stabilization project to keep that sand on the beachfront is next.
The private facility property, owned by Pelican Landing Community Association and contractually shared by Hyatt Resort Hotel & Spa and Hyatt Coconut Plantation, was the recipient of a 43-day beach restoration project that ended in mid-July. This week, a mobilization process to build seven king-pile groins will begin on the beachfront.
It has been a long time coming for association officials and their guests that visit the island. The need for restoration dates back to Hurricane Charley in 2004. Since then, PLCA officials have plugged local, state and federal organizations and agencies for guidance and permits.
