COTI keynote speaker
By BRIAN W IERIMA
b w ie rim a @ b re e z e n e w s p a p e rs .c o m
Wayne Daltry has seen, if not all of it,
certainly most o f it.
For 20 years, he was the executive direc
tor of the Southwest Florida Regional
Planning Council, responsible for planning
services for a six-county area.
Then he spent eight years as the director
of the Lee County Smart Growth Initiative.
And as keynote speaker at C O T I’s
Annual Meeting last week, his message was
clear: We need to restore full impact fees
for Lee County.
Daltry
took
the
COTI audience through
a tour of Southwest
Florida development —
from the time of the
Calusa Indians, who
themselves engaged in

SKYWARN urges
islanders to become
weather spotters
By BRIAN W IE R IM A
b w ie r im a @ b r e e z e n e w s p a p e r s .c o m
y-w-^rere are still fresh memories of
I H urricane
C harley,
which
drove a swath o f destruction
through each o f Sanibel and Captiva
islands in 2004.
Scars o f C harley still persist,
despite over a decade of tropical
grow th. But as every Southw est
Floridian knows, weather is a big
issue on the coast.
The National W eather Service, as
well as local weather forecasters,
have the best technology the world
can offer for tracking dangerous
weather cells and where it maybe
going.
But even with all the radars, satel
lites and technology, the NWS still
depends on the human eye to help
send out warnings and advisories.
This was the topic during the

urges full impact fees
When it comes to expanding our infra
structure to keep up with population
growth, he pointed to the old shibbo
leth: “You can pay me now or pay me
later.”
And Daltry made the persuasive case
that it makes more sense - and gets far bet
ter results - to pay now.
Impact fees, he illustrated, are the fairest
and most effective way to see that our infra
structure - roads, schools, parks, etc. - keeps
up with Lee County’s growing population,
which Daltry projects to reach just over one
million when all existing lots are devel
oped.
In light of the ongoing controversy over
the reduction of Lee County impact fees,
Daltry struck a responsive chord with the
COTI audience, drawing frequent laughter
with his sense of humor and anecdotes and
sustained applause when he concluded his
remarks.
In other COTI business, the member

Gurhan shaped world
fashion with gold designs
By CRAIG GARRETT
c g a rre tt@ b re e z e n e w s p a p e rs .c o m
One of the world’s more important
jewelry designers will visit Sanibel at the
end o f the month.
Gurhan Orhan will be at the Lily & Co.
Jewelers shop M arch 28 for a meet and
greet, to laser inscribe his line of jew elry
between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. H e’ll also be
at Lily & Co. March 27 for an invitation-
only cocktail event.
The New York-based designer’s visit is
important because he rarely appears pub
licly. His fashions are worn by the w orld’s
exalted, currently carried at such places as
Neiman Marcus and Saks. And, o f course,
Lily. Few jew elers work in pure gold.
This will be his second visit to Sanibel,
Lily co-owner Dan Schuyler said.
Mr. Ohran “was overwhelmed by what
we do on this little island,” Schuyler said
o f the famed jew eler’s visit in 2014.
“W e’re very excited to have him back.”
The T urkish-born G urhan O rhan,
known in the industry by his first name,
started making jewelry after becoming
charmed with the look and feel o f pure
gold. H e’s headquartered in New York
City. His line is priced less than $500 to
more than $ 1 00,000. Performers and the
fashionable wear his jewelry at public
events. Their photos are displayed on his
w ebsite, as are fashion layouts that
Gurhan him self photographs. His empire
generates millions in annual sales.
Before designing jew elry. Gurhan was
an engineer and owned nightclubs. The
story is that handling a sheet o f pure gold,
