“This is just another example of our commitment to the community to make sure we provide the best amenities we can to our residents, Gunter said In the next six weeks, we’ll have three more ribbon-cuttings for other parks and two groundbreakings ”
Among the happiest was Councilmember Jessica Cosden, who lives just blocks away from the park and can now bring her children to enjoy it after months of little voices asking when the park would open “I’m excited for the people in the area and myself because we’re so close we can walk here There were kids in the park already when I got here and it filled my heart with joy that people are already enjoying it, Cosden said In 2018 Cape Coral voters approved a $60 million expansion of the city's parks and recreation amenities They approved a 15-year

Elks donates wheelchairs to VA hospital
By CHUCK BALLARO news@breezenewspapers com
The Veterans Administration doesn t just rely on funding from the federal government It relies on volunteers and donations from organizations and private citizens to help lighten the burden
When the Elks Lodge 2596 of Cape Coral learned that the VA Hospital in Cape Coral needed wheelchairs, the fraternal organization got to work
On Friday the Elks presented the hospital with 12 wheelchairs for use for patients arriving and leaving the hospital John Nugent, a member of the lodge, said he called the hospital to ask if there was anything it
needed The hospital volunteer representative said they needed wheelchairs the type that can be pushed
It seems the chairs were disappearing and there weren t enough chairs for everyone to go into the hospital
“What we did was buy 10 wheelchairs Later someone bought two more for a total of 12 ” Nugent said “So their veteran members can wheel themselves from their vehicle to the hospital for their appointment in comfort
The Elks got their shipment of chairs in just a few days continuing their longtime partnership with the VA Nugent said the Elks got a grant from the hospital a couple years ago for homeless veter-
ans for more than $4,000
A t C h r i s t m a s t h e E l k s g a v e m o r e t h a n $3 000 in presents and have given donations of $500 for dinners for veterans of the war in Afghanistan and multiple donations to the veterans hospital
The VA isn’t the only organization they help
The Elks also made a $5 000 donation to the Cape Coral Caring Center
That money went to help those primarily in the community to help pay for utility bills, said Elk Rich Kampf Our main goal is to invest in the local community One goal is to give back to local veterans and the other is caring about fam-

Town of
Fort
Myers Beach using
heavy equipment to remove dead fish
Officials trying to eliminate smelly problem caused by red tide
By NATHAN MAYBERG nmayberg@breezenewspapers com
The shores of Fort Myers Beach have been littered with dead fish in recent weeks leading the Town of Fort Myers
B e a c h t o u s e h e a v y e q u i p m e n t t o r e m o v e t h e f i s h
According to Town of Fort Myers Beach Interim Manager
Keith Wilkins, approximately 13 tons of dead fish have been removed from the town's beaches
The Town of Fort Myers Beach announced this past week that staff have “been working on the Beach daily to remove an increasing amount of dead fish that have started washing up daily, according to a statement issued by town spokesperson Jennifer Dexter stated
Vice Mayor Jim Atterholt said he received complaints from those living on Tropical Shores Way of the difficulty of passing by the dumpster behind town hall due to the stench of the dead fish Wilkins said some of the dead fish removed from the beaches were stored behind town hall until they could be transported to a landfill
The increasing numbers of dead fish on the town’s beaches coincides with increasing red tide levels this past month just a few months after Hurricane Ian struck
The Town s Environmental Services Manager started w o r k i n g l a s t w e e k w i t h t h e F l o r i d a D e p a r t m e n t o f
E n v i r o n m e n t a l P r o t e c t i o n ( F D E P ) t o r e c e i v e o f f i c i a l approval in the form of a permit to use heavier equipment to remove the fish ” Dexter stated
That approval was received on Monday Feb 27 and the town is using equipment from Lee County that is intended to make cleanup more efficient, Dexter stated
Numerous fish have been spotted floating on top of the waters around Fort Myers Beach and washing ashore
Last month the Florida Department of Health in Lee County issued a health alert after waters around Lynn Hall Memorial Park near Times Square on Fort Myers Beach were tested and found to have alert levels of red tide
Elevated alert levels of red tide are also being documented by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission in the area around Little Hickory Island and Barefoot Beach State Preserve in recent weeks Low levels of red tide were reported at nearby Bowditch Point Park on Fort Myers Beach
An increased level of dead fish washing up with tides can be caused by Red Tide which is a toxic algae bloom that periodically happens ” Dexter stated
The Health Department also has an advisory that has been in place since Hurricane Ian about entering the Gulf or any other body of water due to the level of debris that landed in the water after the storm ” Dexter stated
The Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation (SCCF) called upon the Army Corps of Engineers to divert more water south to the Everglades to relieve the waters of
Southwest Florida from an overload of nutrients dumped into the local waters from Hurricane Ian
“When red tide intensifies, it s not only bad for wildlife and human health but it is also bad for tourism Sanibel is typically viewed as an escape from the overly developed cities of Fort Myers and Cape Coral said SCCF Research and Policy Associate Leah Reidenbach Although our beautiful island isn t recovered, red tide is stymying our ability to bring back the tourism economy that many businesses on Sanibel and Captiva depend on ”
Persistent red tide has been blooming in the Gulf of Mexico since October, when it was exacerbated by nutrient pollution from Hurricane Ian, according to SCCF
Naturally occurring K brevis tends to bloom by feeding on upwellings of deep ocean nutrients that become mixed in warmer waters near the surface of the Gulf However when provided with a large supply of man-made nutrients such as nitrogen, the bloom can grow much larger than it otherwise would, said SCCF Environmental Policy Director Matt DePaolis, adding that SCCF and the University of Florida recently published a study showing this connection
The ongoing red tide bloom has resulted in frequent reports of mild to severe respiratory irritation and fish kills along beaches, and the public is urged to follow all beach closures and red tide advisories and avoid areas with active red tide blooms
“Water managers must send more water south to the Everglades where it is needed and more water storage and treatment in the Caloosahatchee watershed are absolutely necessary to buffer periods of high and low flows and reduce nutrient loading Our islands’ economy and our future depend upon it ” Reidenbach said

‘Voices of the Storm: Writing Your Story in the Aftermath of Hurricane Ian’ Tuesday
By TIFFANY REPECKI
trepecki@breezenewspapers com
Reservations are open for a free upcoming workshop that will focus on therapeutic writing
The Captiva Civic Association will host Voices of the Storm: Writing Your Story in the Aftermath of Hurricane Ian” on March 14 from 10 to 11:30 a m at the Captiva Civic Center
Led by author, editor and island resident Ilie Ruby, participants will learn how to process their experiences through writing
E x e c u t i v e D i r e c t o r E m i l y Hess Ankerson explained that Ruby proposed the workshop to help people process any trauma through writing particularly as it relates to what they have dealt with with Ian
Ilie Ruby
All storms become personal, and if you drill down deep enough, the personal becomes universal, Ruby shared While many of us have been pouring our energy into rebuilding our homes businesses and communities it's vital that we include ourselves in the 'rebuilding' equation Processing our personal experience through writing can help us restore our inner resources
Telling our story is a proven and powerful tool for healing, she added Ankerson explained that Ruby has experience teaching others how to use writing to heal In the workshop she will
guide participants through the process by using examples and her background “She will lead people through the process of writing to process trauma she said
Participants should bring a pen or pencil and journal or notebook to use
Ruby is the author of two novels “The Language of Trees” and “The Salt God’s Daughter ” Her essays have been published in the New York Times CNN AOL and Forward among others Ruby s awards include the Edwin L Moses Fiction Prize, Kerr Foundation Scholarship and Phi Kappa Phi Award for Fiction She is also a recipient of the Wesleyan Writer’s Conference Nonfiction Scholarship a n d K e m p A w a r d f o r O u t s t a n d i n g T e a c h i n g a n d Scholarship
Ruby has taught at literary conferences nationwide and she offers writing workshops, as well as coaches people on the transformative process of writing to heal
While the workshop is free reservations are required as space is limited
To make a reservation visit https://ccacaptiva org/
The community is encouraged to reserve their spot
I think it could be very helpful for people who are still working through what happened, Ankerson said It's kind of a different approach for people to try a different avenue for people to perhaps process what they've been through

Cape Coral Police Department issues fraud alert involving unwitting transportation drivers
A nationwide scam has affected residents in Cape Coral The Cape Coral Police Department has received several cases over the last week in reference to scams involving unwitting Uber/Lyft drivers Several residents received phone calls from scammers stating they were with a law enforcement agency or a law firm According to the CCPD these scammers will then say a family member has
been arrested or was in an accident, and they need funds for lawyers or bail money
The victims are requested to go to their banks and withdraw thousands of dollars and place the funds in unique packaging to d i s g u i s e i t f r o m d e l i v e r y d r i v e r s A n unknowing ridesharing driver will show up and pick up this money/package and deliver it to another location outside the city No law enforcement agency or law firm
would send drivers to pick up cash or packages from anyone, the CCPD said If you do get one of these phone calls and are not sure what to do follow these steps:
1 Contact the family member directly; if you cannot reach them, contact other family members to assist If you cannot get anyone, wait until a family member calls you back
2 Do not put cash in envelopes or pack-
ages for anyone to pick up from your home: these alleged accidents or an arrest of family members are likely fictitious and are part of a scam
3 If you are still trying to figure out what to do, please call the Cape Coral P o l i c e D e p a r t m e n t a t
These calls can also be reported by emailing us at ccpdfraud@capecoral gov
Accusation: Cape City Council member responds to mayor ’ s request
From page 1
Republican Party of Florida Caldwell, a state representative from 2010-2018 and the Lee County property appraiser, said Friday he forwarded the letter based on the seriousness of the allegation and the supporting documentation received
He said he was obligated to pass it on
This is a fundamental question regarding the electoral process and anytime anyone brings up a situation like this it needs to be investigated, Caldwell said when reached by phone “One way or another, it needs to be resolved ”
He said he received the complaint written by a Cape resident and forwarded without a name about two weeks ago I t o o k t h e i n f o r m a t i o n t o t h e
G o v e r n o r s O f f i c e w h e n I w a s i n Tallahassee a couple of weeks ago working on some tax proposals, Caldwell said
He did not contact Cummings
“It's the kind of thing that when you receive that type of allegation you are not the one to investigate it ” Caldwell said
Obviously we are a society where everyone is innocent until proven guilty, but I do have a duty to forward that type of information when it's provided to me
“I took it and passed it along to the Governor's Office I suspect at this time they are investigating it he added
He did not keep a copy of the letter but provided a general overview of the allegation which is that Cummings was not a resident of the district at the time of election and that she still is not a resident of District
4
The complaining parties had conducted their own investigation and provided "several pieces of information to back up their complaint, Caldwell said
They had investigated and done their own research as collaboration for their conclusion and it was credible information, he said
Since being notified of the complaint Cummings has said there has been no abridgment of city residency requirements pertaining to her qualification to run or serve
Everything I'm doing is legal, she said
when reached by phone last Friday I have a part-time residence in District 4 and I'll be full time in less than six weeks And we had a hurricane that wiped out the other house ”
She updated on Tuesday morning the time it would take to move providing the March 22 date to the city
People need to understand we just had a hurricane, she said This is why it's frustrating to me; we still have people displaced ” She said her response to the mayor would constitute her statement on the allegations
According to documents attached to G u n t e r s l e t t e r r e q u e s t i n g a r e s p o n s e , Cummings' drivers license and voters registration card both bear the address of a residence in District 4 which Cummings has said is her residence of record albeit parttime post-Ian G u n t e r a l s o a t t a c h e d C u m m i n g s ' Statement of Candidate form and other paperwork she had filed with the City Clerk s Office to qualify to run for the District 4 seat; city legal opinions related
to the charter residency requirement and situations that could result in forfeiture of office dating back to 2002 and 2013; and information obtained from the Lee County Supervisor of Elections Office regarding a change in her voter's registration shortly before the 2022 candidate qualifying period According to the dateline, Cummings, who previously ran in District 7, updated her address from one in District 7 to one in District 4 on May 9 2022
