Summary |
Sanibel City Council members expressed concerns on the approach to Blind Pass bridge when Lee County engineers presented plans to the city for a new bridge. In designing the new bridge, the county had to forego elevating the approach roads leading up to the bridge because of the additional cost. Sanibel's mayor, however, suggested the county advise Captiva residents that many people could be left stranded on Captiva during a storm because of rising waters. |
