On October 15, 2015, the Fort Myers City Council declined a petition by Charlene's Classic Carriages to move regular commercial horse carriage operations and sightseeing tours from Naples to Downtown Fort Myers. While the city council originally approved an ordinance that would allow Charlene's Classic Carriages to advertise "horse carriage tours" in a 4-2 vote, due to significant public outcry and backlash, the city council members reversed course. However, a compromise was reached where Charlene's Classic Carriages would be allowed to operate horse carriage(s) in Downtown Fort Myers on a "temporary" basis, such as for weddings and events, rather than full-time, as seen in other cities, such as St. Augustine, Florida; New Orleans, Louisiana; and Savannah, Georgia.

A deal was recently reached to phase out horse carriage tours in New York City by June 1, 2028.

Hi, I'm 25M in Fort Myers.

Just trying to meet friends that would like to dive into these types of topics and have discussions.

I've tried to be in a church environment but after reading so much and seeing so much I no longer see everything in the same way anymore and it's hard to be myself or at least talk about this openly with anybody on a consistent basis.

Let me know if you'd like to chat and maybe meet in person for a walk or coffee. Or even if you are curious I like to talk about these types of topics.

I want to start playing padel, my bf has been playing for more than a year. However, I just now found courts in ES Academy in Naples. Is there anyone interested in playing?

Hi everybody. I went through some financial hardship and I need a Dogg insurance for future.
Which one you recommend ?
Text me if you have one and your opinion on it.
I see a lot off them out-here, looking for right one.

Thank you !
