Dock of the Bay

Kudos to the Sanibel City Council for standing firm on the "dock of the bay" issue. It warms the cockles of my heart to know that the Sanibel Plan is holding strong in the face of yet another attempt to overdevelop the Island.


Owners of bayside properties were well aware of development limitations when they purchased their properties. Crying foul years later demonstrates incredible arrogance and entitlement. If you want to pave and build and maximize return on real estate investment, perhaps you would be happier in another part of Florida.


I wish more people could see the value of an unspoiled island in a state where developers pave right up to the edge of protected lands.

There are two docks in this photo.

Imagine if there were five, or ten, or more...
