Hello everyone,

I own a lot in Lehigh Acres. I've already conducted the necessary inspection, and for now, I know there are no gopher tortoise nests on my property. However, I understand that over the years, it’s possible one might move in and build a nest.

In that case, I’ve learned that the cost of relocating a tortoise and its nest can be around $10,000, plus $5,000 per additional tortoise. That seems excessively expensive to me.

Is it common for these tortoises to migrate from one lot to another, creating new nests? Is there an affordable way to prevent them from settling on my property? Do you know of any companies that offer more reasonable prices for relocation services?

Thank you very much!

So I just seen an accident on 82 involving a school bus (no kids on board) and a jeep this AM. I seen firetrucks and ambulance coming from sunshine and probably the one by Veteran's park. With so many accidents on 82 and it being so long and congested at times, why haven't the countt put a fire house or two actually on the 82? Wouldn't that make sense? It will cut down time to accidents

I recently moved and I love near bunch of parks, want to play soccer/futbol and meet new people

We moved here two years ago. We were attracted to the area because of lower cost of living and the abundance of trees. What we didn’t realize was: the roads here are awful and do not support the amount of people living here. Half the residential streets have no center line painted, so assholes decide to drive in the middle of the road, speed, and nearly run you off the road. There are 4 way stops on single lane roads…traffic gets backed up for miles simply because Lee County won’t invest in this community and put stop lights and double lane roads, making it miserable for every tax payer that lives out here. I’ve lived in several states, some with really bad roads and congestion…and NOTHING compares to what I’ve experienced here. While I say this, they are clearing lots every day, building homes…with no infrastructure to support it. Can’t wait to move out of here.

I'm looking to record a song that sounds good and official. I am a good singer. I just need someone who can make it sound official and mastered.

Anyone know about an internet provider near Sunshine and 42 st W? Or when any provider will build this way? Currently have Hughesnet which is fine but drops during any rain and suffers high latency (satellite, I know)

Anywhere in Lehigh or close to Lehigh. The “find me gluten free” app doesn’t show much in Lehigh.

What’s the best phone carrier signal in Lehigh? I have xfinity mobile and it works great in fort Myers (never had problems living 2 years in Estero) but literally as soon as I cross 82 into Lehigh my connection goes down. Thinking about switching so looking for recommendations!

Thanks!!

I forget which one it was. Either Irma or Ian. One of those was a category FIVE when it hit and in my area it barely did anything. There was flooding but it wasn't super bad. Milten is being said to be a cat 4, then slow down to cat 3 when it hits florida. Should us in Lehigh be worried?

Where's the good iguana hunting in Lehigh?

Just found out about barefoot lake, and we can't use it at all anymore??

Is anyone online rn

Does anyone use either First Key or Mainstreet Renewal for a rental house in Lehigh? If so, could you please tell me how good or how bad are they? Houses are soooo nice but they are all owned by these big companies and we are already having costumer service trouble just to apply so I can’t even imagine if we need something later to be fixed.

Thanks

Honest opinions about the Westminster area? Loved a family home there and it’s the only family home on the street. It’s a duplex area. It looked fine to me but I always hear “avoid duplex areas” so now I’m a little concerned. What’s wrong with that? East side of the golf club literally in front of it.

Thanks!

There is a GMC Square body at the Safe Storage Club facility in Lehigh and was wondering if anyone knows who it belongs to and if they’d be willing to sell it.

New here. Looking to go out and kick it. Where do the 20-30 year old black people hangout here ? Where are the hoes? I get a lot of matches on POF and tinder but then ghost or it’s suspect.

I have been hearing that Quantum Fiber is installing in Lehigh. Can any one confirm this? If you do have it can you please give me your approximate location? (In Lehigh only! I don't care about nearby locations.) Thank You
