A Lee County Mosquito Control District Spokesman and the owners of the Woodstock Airport property acknowledge that the closing and transfer of ownership took place on or before Dec., 15th as put forth in the original contract for sale.

Five people addressed the Lee County Mosquito Control District at the Nov. board meeting. In favor of the purchase, Jonathon Hunt, of Matlacha stated, "When a resident comes before a board, I really feel that they should use their real name. . . that hasn't been done here today."

There was no in-depth discussion by the Lee County Mosquito & Hyacinth Control Districts board members about the Woodstock Airport purchase at the October meeting, other than the District’s attorneys are investigating the questions brought forward to the board about easements on the property. The next scheduled board meeting is Thursday, November 15th at 10 a.m.

The plaintiffs appealed the court’s decision that the zoning verification letter from the county permitting LCMCD’s use of the Woodstock Airport FL86 was valid.

At approximately 4:30pm, 8-24-18, there was a three vehicle involved accident. Impact occurred near Stringfellow & Lolly roads. Original report of a rollover turned out to be incorrect. The ambulance transported at least one person to the Cape Coral Hospital. A white Nissan destroyed its front end after impacting a Dodge 4x4 and a pickup truck.

Rickey Dewel Beaty, 59, of Bokeelia is the first person in Lee County to have his firearms confiscated under the new "Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Act" enacted by the Florida legislature and signed by Governor Scott, Mar 9, 2018 after thousands of high school students marched and protested around the country in favor of the new law. A petition for risk protection order against Beaty was sought by the Sheriff's Dept.

The Lee County Mosquito Control District is currently awaiting a judge’s decision on the lawsuit that was filed regarding the County’s determination of Woodstock-FL86 airport use. The District currently has a six month lease on the airport, with an option to renew for another six months. While waiting for the judge’s decision, the lease allows the District to conduct an assessment on the infrastructure, determine engineering requirements, formulate an LDO, (Limited Development Order) and begin the permitting process.
