LIFE ON FORT MYERS BEACH
Top News
The latest news on Estero Blvd. Construction
Those of you who haven’t been to our island in a few months are no
doubt wondering what’s going on. Confronted with a maze of Bob’s
Barricades upon coming over the bridge, visitors to our island this
month will understandably have questions. The most important answer is,
yes, we are open for business and what’s happening is a long-needed
water and road improvement project that will eventually benefit
everyone. And as with any improvements that involve a heavily-traveled
roadway like Estero Boulevard, there will be some delays but local
businesses and the Town of Fort Myers Beach are working hard to ensure
those delays are minimal and our guests’ stay on the island remains a
pleasant one. CLICK HERE to read more.
Library Moves Towards Total Solar
The Fort Myers Beach Library Board approved the preparation and
issuance of a Competitive Negotiation Package request that would include
the services of an engineer, fabricator and artist to begin the
expansion of the solar program to provide electricity to the library. The Beach Library has set aside $744,000 toward a Total Solar Project
whose aim is to provide all the power the library uses. Currently the
library uses rooftop solar panels to supplement their electricity needs,
though FPL does not provide information on how much power they deliver
to the library. CLICK HERE to read more.
Swim With Caution
This week, the Sand Paper received some disturbing news from the
Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation’s weekly report on water quality
– Lee County’s Environmental Lab has documented that blue green algae
has moved from the Alva boat ramp downriver, and elevated levels of
cyanobacteria were found at Iona, the Sanibel Causeway and along the
eastern shore of Sanibel Island. In addition, the nuisance algae
‘pyrodinium bahamense’ was documented by the SCCF in Pine Island Sound. So what does this mean for the public? To use caution before entering the water, according to two scientists from the SCCF. CLICK HERE to read more.
