Fort Myers City leaders are discussing the idea of annexing at least part of North Fort Myers to make the incorporated area part of their own city.
The two areas are currently separated by the Caloosahatchee River.
People like Deborah Cop and Charles Garretson choose to live in North Fort Myers to escape the so-called city life close by.
“I like that it’s more rural and not a city,” Cop said.
“Right now I would be worried about the city coming in here,” Garretson added.

Passionate cries for freedom for Cubans continue to be heard in Southwest Florida. It’s been five days of protests in our region for the people of Cuba.
As protests continue, the governor is stepping up efforts to try and help the people on the island nation.
We witnessed a protest in solidarity for Cubans held near the Edison Mall in Fort Myers Thursday.
A crowd of people continued to be heard into the night giving speeches about how they say it’s time to stand up and help Cuba, holding signs that say “SOS Cuba” and waving the Cuban and American flags together. These protestors are demanding the U.S. intervene in Cuba.
