The 2022 election will come nearly two years after the March 2020 election that saw challengers sweep incumbents in the largest turnover on the Naples City Council in recent years.
Christman said he is seeking reelection for the same reasons he chose to run in 2019: “to listen to the residents, be responsive to their concerns and to do everything possible to make sure Naples city government addresses the key challenges it faces.”
Christman said four of his priorities include environmental protection, a land development code that supports the city’s “small-town feel and character,” supporting quality development and redevelopment and providing “transparent and ethical local government.”
Naples could soon boast a five-star Four Seasons resort.
While Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts hasn t publicly announced its interest yet, The Athens Group has confirmed it has a letter of intent for the world-renowned brand to operate the five-star resort that will replace the landmark Naples Beach Hotel. Four Seasons’ destination resort hotels and residences are unsurpassed, and we believe this unique location in Naples deserves nothing less, said Kim Richards, CEO of The Athens Group, in a statement. While the operating agreement is still in development, Four Seasons shares Athens’ vision for creating exceptional experiences for our resort guests and residents, as well as our Naples neighbors, he said.
