On Saturday, Nov. 18, Lee County Parks & Recreation will be hosting a free movie night at Three Oaks Park.

The main feature will be Disney and Pixar’s PG-rated “Elemental”. This original film is set in Element City, where fire, water, land and air residents live together.

The story introduces Ember, a tough, quick-witted, and fiery young woman.

Ember’s friendship with Wade, a fun, sappy, and go-with-the-flow guy, challenges her beliefs about the world they live in.

For those uninterested in the movie, Lee County Human & Veteran Services will be on-site providing tents and games, while Lee County Scorpions will provide concessions for purchase.

Guests are encouraged to bring their own blankets or chairs.

For directions and more information about Three Oaks Park, contact Estero Recreation Center at 239-533-1470.

    Hundreds report water violations as enforcement varies across Sarasota County
    Emily Andersen/Suncoast Searchlight
    Suncoast Searchlight reviewed water-restriction complaints and enforcement records across Sarasota County during Southwest Florida’s most severe drought in nearly a decade and found municipalities are taking sharply different approaches to enforcement. While some jurisdictions actively patrol for violations and issue citations, others rely primarily on education and warnings and provide few clear ways for residents to report violations. We also examine how the drought has heightened public scrutiny over water use, with hundreds of residents filing complaints about sprinklers, lush lawns and suspected overwatering during the regional shortage.

    ‘You are playing games’: School tax fight erupts after Sarasota vote
    Derek Gilliam/Suncoast Searchlight
    Local officials thought a dispute over who would pay to collect a voter-approved school tax had been settled when Sarasota County commissioners agreed in a surprise vote this week to resume covering the millions of dollars withheld by Tax Collector Mike Moran. Turns out, the fight isn’t over. Behind the scenes, county, school and tax officials spent the next few days sparring over whether Tuesday’s commission vote actually restored the decades-old practice — or whether another formal vote would be required before the money could be released to the school district, according to emails obtained by Suncoast Searchlight.
