Fort Myers councilman wants feds to probe Dunbar sludge

Fort Myers councilman Johnny Streets hosted a meeting Thursday to discuss the future of a former sludge dumping site in Dunbar.

Streets wants the federal government to conduct a comprehensive investigation into how the sludge ended up at the site. If negligence is found, Streets wants to hold those people accountable.

“Let’s start from day one until today and make sure we stop scapegoating and find a solution to fix the problem,” Streets said.

WINK News John-Carlos Estrada explains the reason behind the councilman’s request.
