Letter to the Editor — Remember the Parks GO Bond?
Remember the Parks GO Bond? Recall the Public meeting that they said was very well attended? They need to make room at Lake Kennedy, so the current lease for the kayak and rowing club has ended. Yes, there is space needed for these important water sports. Putting the kayak and rowing club into a very heavy traffic area may not be the best option. I live on the NW Spreader. From Gator Slough south is the heaviest used area. We have long had a speeding issue. The Cape PD tries, but can’t be on patrol here as much as is needed. At the new Tropicana Park, they now plan to lease park property to a rowing group and a kayak group. I don’t recall seeing that as part of the park concept that was previously presented at the public meeting held on the park plans. At the North end of …

Letter to the Editor — Cape Coral’s Current “Land Charade” is Taking Place now
Have you ever read the book “Lies That Came True?” Lies That Came True: The Amazing Creation of Cape Coral… available on www.amazon.com One may want to say that the same is happening today.

They raided the budget and the reserves with a promise to return the funds when the property was sold. They said they needed the property for future use to support the city’s growth. How many times have …

Letter to the Editor — An Autistic Thanksgiving
At the time of me writing this, it is both Thanksgiving and, simultaneously, my 29th birthday. I am at the age where most people settle down, focus on their career and start a family. But that is not the case for those living with mental health conditions. I have had a difficult two years, being hospitalized twice for mental breakdowns, quitting multiple jobs, and failing to fulfill my personal goal of living independently. This is not an unfamiliar story for those of us diagnosed with conditions such as autism or bipolar disorder. A lot of us, in an innate and human desire to prove our worth, seek to lie or hide the nature of these conditions. I have always lived openly with my conditions, because I don’t think you should hide who you are to conform to a society that deems you “disabled.” Even worse, sometimes when we express ourselves, …
