Your layout, foundation and trenching can be handled efficiently, promptly economically CRITICAL PATH, Inc. Machine Excavated PHONE: 936-4728 Day or Nite Sunset Realty Operation Looks Like 'Grand Canyon' County Slaps Island A digging and filling operation on Gasparilla Island by Sunset Realty Corp.

drew sharp criticism from the Lee County Commission Monday along with the deferment of the firm's request to rezone 80 acres for residential use. Commissioner Walter Shirey said a digging operation on the Charlotte County portion of the island "looks like the Grand Materials being dug from the gulffront property allegedly are being hauled into Lee County to fill 81.8 acres Sunset wants rezoned one-family residential. "That I hole you've dug in Charlotte County is about 75 feet deep and about a quarter of a mile wide," Shirey told attorney 1 Bob Seifert of Punta Gorda. "I started calling it the Grand Canyon of Boca Grande. "I would have taken a closer look, but the dump trucks were moving in and out of there so fast, I thought I was going to get run down.

I am disturbed by what appears to be a total disregard for the health, safety and welfare of the people on the island by your Seifert said he does not think Sunset Realty has violated any laws in the digging and filling operation. "I am concerned about what would happen if we had a hurricane or other severe storm," Shirey said. "I doubt that the little piece of land you have left would withstand such a storm. When that water gets to churning, I'm afraid it will wash out the highway as well as the railroad and completely cut the island off." Archie Grant of Johnson Engineering in Fort Myers, said about 800,000 cubic yards of fill materials has been dug from the hole and its depth is only 12 to 18 feet and not 75 as Shirey said. Shirey also said dirt has been piled around the roots of mangrove stand which will cause it to die.

really concerns me," he said. "The people at Boca Grande have told me the owner of Sunset Realty has By PHIL KEYES News-Press Staff Writer only been on the island twice once for a few days when he bought the property and one other time for some big occasion, like a funeral." Grant said Sunset decided to dig on the Charlotte County parcel after the state refused a swap of 1,500 acres of Sunset bottomland for permission to dredge in the Inter-coastal Waterway. The materials from that dredge project would have been used to fill the Lee County property instead, Grant explained. "Sunset Realty feels it had to do something or lose its land. The land being filled is being raised six feet or higher," Grant said.

Sayers said he would like to see the master plan for Sunset's development and moved to delay action on zoning until company officials can come from New York to discuss the project. A tentative date of Oct. 15 was set for the meeting. In late afternoon, the commissioners denied a request from Dewey H. Boyd to develop a 235-acre tract east of Suncoast Estates in North Fort Myers for a mobile home park.

Boyd has a contract to purchase the tract from John Grady, the developer of Suncoast Estates, if the zoning variance could have! been worked out with the county. Many Suncoast Estates residents have objected to additional development until problems such as unpaved roads and poor drainage are solved. The property, zoned several years ago for Grady, can have two mobile homes on each 1.25-acre lot. Boyd was seeking to put a mobile home on each 4,000 square foot lot and to develop the 235 acres with paved streets, county water service, a central sewage treatment plant, holding pond drainage and a new access road from Slater Road. In other zoning matters, the commissioners: Denied business zoning requested by P.

A. and Jeff Donnahoe for an antique shop in an agricultural zone at the corner of Pondella Road and Wendell Road in North Fort Myers.
