Fines and rules aside(which would make it nearly impossible to sustain because they make you revert it back to mangroves after caught/fined), making a man made beach wouldn't turn it into Gulf frontage. It's still brown stained estuary/bay water. It wouldn't have the seashells, sea turtles, sunsets, gulf beach waves, etc.

I seen these signs ALL OVER the island. As an outsider can someone explain what they mean.

You can't compare the two. It's about becoming an over developed island the next (Sanibel or Marco Island) and it's not about the 1600 undeveloped islands in the Keys or ten thousand Islands of other undeveloped islands in the region

Nothing misleading or wrong about that, I'm sure you get it, If not, then you have other interest $

You CAN compare the 2 groups. Both groups are ISLANDS. I'm not the one using the term "Very last Florida ISLAND". I'm only quoting it. I have no $ interest in Pine Island, and this is the first I have heard of the Pine Island plan. But, when I read, "...very last Florida Island...", I read that sentence again, because I assumed I must have read it wrong. I thought nobody could be that "geographically challenged".

Well, then it should say that, but it doesn't. Maybe it should say very last inhabited island that is not over developed. They need to change their wording to reflect that, and I'll drop the issue like a hot rock. But, right now, it looks glaringly false, and it looks like that sentence was written by someone who has never set foot in Florida.

but not over developed means exactly what it says. Developed but not overly so. Undeveloped is a different situation that does not apply here. It says what it says, you just may not have understood it.

We do know that it's the Very Last

According to that reasoning, someone could take an undeveloped island, and do a little development on it, and .. voila! It becomes what you would define as an island that is "not over-developed". (I say it was already "not over-developed" when it was I it's undeveloped state.) Do you see the folly in your definition? I'm saying that UN-developed is "not over-developed", while your definition would make it so that doing some construction on undeveloped islands creates more islands that are "not over-developed". Clear as mud! LOL!
