Life on Fort Myers Beach

TOP LOCAL NEWS

 

Margaritaville-FMB Resort

Clearing the Air
On Wednesday, February 5th, local media attended an information session on Margaritaville – Fort Myers Beach (TPI-FMB), aimed at clarifying some of what developers called “frustrating” and erroneous information that had been disseminated by opponents of the project recently. Hosted by developer TPI Hospitality representative Tom Torgerson, and TPI-FMB’s government liaison John Gucciardo, the session reviewed the project’s timeline to date, noting that it’s been almost two years since the project won unanimous approval and the details were in front of Beach residents and local media. Torgerson said in beginning the session that there has been a “fair amount of information that’s being circulated/reported that may not be quite accurate and is really confusing people. We thought that we would give you the knowledge and information of what we, as developers, did on this project and what the town, as the governing agency, did and what’s transpired since – give that background, factually, and give you the documents that memorialized what actually happened.” He explained that the project was vetted by the public and the Town during the last half of 2017 and first half of 2018 and a lot of time has passed since then. “That’s a long time ago…and people forget all the details.”
