When Dana Miller leaves her Cape Coral home in the mornings, the first thing she sees in the big painted bike path sign. “The City of Cape Coral has decided to put that at the end of our driveway,” Miller said. “The entire length of our driveway [is] very awful, hideous looking.” On Tuesday, Miller was surprised and feels singled out by the city for their latest transgression. “The bike lane across the street is not in their driveway,” Miller said, visually frustrated.

Officials tell WINK News the original bike lane sign was here before the house was built. It added the black color recently. Miller said she will continue to fight this. “I don’t appreciate my tax dollars going to make my property looked disgusting,” Miller said.
