AQUALANE SHORES
Aqualane Shores Association was incorporated on February 3, 1966, as a non-profit corporation to provide fellowship and unity of purpose for a unique, mature, and settled segment of Naples.
At its inception the Association’s area of interest and responsibility ran eastward from Gordon Drive to the Bay of Naples and southward from 14th Avenue South to 21st Avenue South, Marina Drive, Forrest Lane and Southwinds Drive. In 1996 the City of Naples was required by state law to present an updated, comprehensive plan for the City, which evolved into the City’s VISION 2005. Numerous meetings with city residents indicated a need to realign individual neighborhoods within the city. Aqualane Shores is now known as THE AQUALANE SHORES NEIGHBORHOOD. The area of interest and responsibility now runs eastward from the Gulf of Mexico to Naples Bay and southward from 14th Avenue South to Jamaica Channel.
Since its beginning, the Association’s purpose has remained much the same. The officers and Board of Directors, all volunteers, participate in many community projects and activities to protect and improve the environment, beauty, and way of life that distinguishes the Aqualane Shores area from all others.
The Association plays an active role in many community programs through the Presidents Council of Greater Naples Property Owners Associations and the City of Naples President’s Council—two groups composed of the presidents of county and city property owner associations, respectively. The Association cooperates with the City Police Department, Naples Civic Association and County Sheriff in the Neighborhood Watch Program. It monitors political activities of the City Council and County Commission and continues its efforts on behalf of cleanliness and safety of our waterways and in the support and enforcement of local ordinances.
An Annual meeting in January, Holiday party, Spring party and two beach parties (new!) are held each year to promote fellowship among the entire Aqualane Shores Neighborhood.
