Prior to making the arrest, Dalton discussed the case with the State Attorney's Office to be sure he was following proper procedure. According to the lawsuit, Dalton asked Irving to come to the police department squad room on Feb. 17, 1998, to sign a Notice to Appear in court.

This is a nice community that is going to have to work desperately to continue a real sense community under the pressures we face: •more tourism on and off-island, hence traffic • development and redevelopment that could drastically change the way we "look" and the kinds of people who will live here •the loss of longtime islanders and the integration of new islanders •a change in demographics that may have more and more people working off the islands, mak- ing this more of a Lee County suburban bedroom community •growth off the island that could effect everything from hurricane evacuation to estuary pollution and boating and car traffic... I really believe that the Islander and the Island Reporter, together, are a package that will help us survive and flourish, to both understand and enjoy these islands. Again, we are lucky to live here. But it isn't Disney World. (And I'm glad for that!)
