Removal is the responsible and environmentally right thing to do. The locks has outlived its useful life and is now a detriment both environmentally and civically.

The Sanibel Captiva Conservation Foundation is a petitioner and against removing the lock. I thought they were for marine and wildlife. Why would they support killing Manatees?

I undeerstood the lock was originally installed to facilitate the building of the canals. Then it would be removed. That never happened. Whatever the reason it is not srving any useful purpoase but is causing nuisance to everybody. If I'm really honest, it's a eyesore too!
