Re: Proposed Modification to Census Tract No 9710 Long Key to Key Colony Beach
Gentlemen,
Monroe County is currently participating in the u.S. Census Bureau's 2010 Participant Statistical Areas Program
(pSAP). The county has received software and data from the u.S. Census Bureau, the data based on the 2000
census, contains flagged census tracts that need to be modified. The flagged census tracts do not meet the 2010
PSAP criteria. The census tracts in question either have populations andlor housing units that fall below the
minimum or exceed the maximum 2010 Census Thresholds. After speaking with my contact, Chris, Shaw at the
U.S. Census Bureau in Atlanta, it's been determined that only one census tract will require a boundary
modification: Census Tract No 9710 which encompasses Long Key, Duck Key, Grassy Key and Key Colony
Beach.
Prior to submitting the proposed change, (please see attached map), the Census Bureau requires us to obtain
signatures of the highest elected official directly affected by the change, documenting their approval of the new
census tract proposal. The deadline for submission to the Census Bureau of the proposed changes is March 24,
2009.
Please take a moment to review the attached information and kindly sign the attached authorization sheet.
Sincerely,
Andrew O. Trivette
