Beach Talk has reported that they received news of the waste water system being down indefinitely. For those residents who remain on Ft. Myers Beach a week after Hurricane Ian hit the island, this means waste water from used bathing water, toilets and sinks cannot be processed.
Ft. Myers Beach is currently closed to all residents and business owners. The rescue efforts continue and Ft. Myers Beach Officials urge people to allow them to complete their search. There are still missing persons they are trying to locate amongst the massive amounts of debris.

Pictures Of Fort Myers Beach In The Aftermath Of Hurricane Ian
Fort Myers Beach is absolutely destroyed. Our entire Southwest Florida area is reeling from Hurricane Ian. Most of us are without power and internet. We have limited cell and text messaging available. Many of you reading this are from outside of our area, so if can help:
We are currently live and taking phone calls and texts 98.1 FM, 106.3 FM, and 96.1 FM. You can also steam via the B103.9, 96K-Rock, ESPNSWFL, and Sunny1063 apps. To hear the broadcast in Spanish, tune to 99.3 fm or via the Playa99.3 app.
Hurricane Ian made landfall near Cayo Costa, an island off the coast of Fort Myers, just after 3 p.m. on Wednesday. With Ian, came 150 mph winds, the fifth-strongest hurricane to make landfall in the U.S. According to ABC News, "Ian then made a second landfall 90 minutes later, still as a Category 4 storm with 145 mph winds, just south of Punta Gorda, near Pirate Harbor."
While the efforts to restore Fort Myers Beach will be a years long recovery, our whole area is suffering greatly. The causeway to Sanibel collapsed and the docks sustained heavy damage, making the island only accessible by helicopter. There's some areas where we don't even know yet the extent of the damage.
We will rebuild. But this is going to take a long time.
