Log on from your lounge chair and browse from the beach? It’s now possible in Treasure Island with the Citi WiFi Networks new wireless internet connection. Citi WiFi high-speed internet goes live and online Wednesday, July 4, 2007 covering Gulf Boulevard and the beaches from Caddy’s on the Beach to Gator’s on John’s Pass.

When do you water?
Match the last number of your house number to the day of the week and turn on the sprinklers. No watering between 8am and 6pm, though.

Treasure Island reinforces ban on illegal fireworks
Illegal fireworks cause fires, injuries and leave behind a real mess on our beaches and streets, unnecessarily burdening our sensitive marine environment. And an $88 fine for illegal fireworks is not much holiday fun, either. Let the pros handle the fireworks!

Common ground for beach dunes

The City Commission recently adopted a beach maintenance area which provides for a no-rake buffer zone around the existing dunes to grow naturally again. Those areas of the beach away from the dunes will continue to be maintained by the TI Public Works in the form of raking and the bi-monthly volunteer beach clean-ups.
