We live in one of the most beautiful places on earth. Sand and the gulf of Mexico frame our landscape. Many times I wonder if the visionaries of that sculpt our future have the right line of sight. Some don't want change, Fort Myers beach should fight growth they say. A start there would be to clean the beach on a regular basis. Our family vacationed in Clearwater for a few years prior to trying out this area. The beaches there were plowed and combed each morning. Pristine to each new footprint. Some say "we can't afford it". Same with the power boat races that stop in Fort Myers from time to time. "We can't afford it" was the answer for them not coming this year.
Last year the beaches were packed, boats lined the shore line rub rail to rub rail, resturants were packed. It seems like we can't afford not to do these things if we want to be a true destination for vacation and ultimately for people to relocate to. I fear the elder managers/politicians have grown to comfortable and taken for granted what we have as natural resources.
Think people and vote for growth when the opportunity comes.
