Fort Myers Beach voters reject fire district merger with Iona-McGregor

Published in Local Government on .

Confirmed

Reported by a news outlet, an official source or a public record.

About 75% of voters in the Fort Myers Beach Fire Control District voted against merging with the Iona-McGregor Fire District on Nov. 3, while about 57% of Iona-McGregor voters supported it. The merger needed a majority in both districts, so it fails and Fort Myers Beach keeps its own district. The district says plans for a new administration building and a returning fire boat will go ahead.
