Lee County will hold an open house-style public meeting to discuss and answer questions about a proposal to build a marina and boat club on Waterway Estates property on Inlet Drive in North Fort Myers. The open house is 4:30 to 6 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 17, at the North Fort Myers Recreation Center, 2000 North Recreation Park Way. Lee County commissioners voted in March 2019 to direct staff to develop an invitation to negotiate to solicit developer proposals for the property based on current entitlements. This open house is intended to update residents on the progress before the board considers the proposal on Dec. 7. Safe Harbor Marinas has proposed to lease the county-owned property to develop about $9 million in capital improvements, dry storage for 200 boats, wet/floating boat slips, a fuel dock, waterfront restaurant, pool and the potential for a Lee County Sheriff’s Office Marine Unit substation.
