The Lee Board of County Commissioners voted Jan. 4 to authorize staff to pursue the purchase of two parcels, including an 80.5-acre parcel on Bokeelia, for the Conservation 20/20 land acquisition program. The Bokeelia parcel is near the Conservation 20/20 Smokehouse Bay Preserve and within the Matlacha Pass Aquatic Preserve on the northeastern portion of Pine Island. It is a former ornamental tree farm and plant nursery. The other parcel is 15.5 acres in the southeastern part of Lee County, surrounded by state-owned conservation land within the Corkscrew Regional Ecosystem Watershed. Any acquisition agreements brought back will be brought to the board for consideration.
