To: Danny Kohlage
Please read the following into the record at the BOCC meeting this afternoon:
To: Monroe County Board of County Commissioners
Dear Commissioners.
It is our understanding that County Administrator Jim Roberts will be a participant
in the anti-incorporation meeting tonight at the SugarloafSchool. We vehemently oppost
this action.
Our committee has carefully abided by this commission~s request that county
employees remain neutral with respect to this process. Therefor, we have never invited
county employees to any of our meetings. We have utmost respect for Mr. Roberts and
teel that he is filir and neutral regarding this issue. However, the fact remains that the
mere participation of Mr. Roberts creates an appearance, or an illusion that the county is
in fact siding with one group on this issue.
Though Mr. Roberts will provide valuable information to this issue, it is not
reasonable to assume that the electorate will disseminate actual information from the mere
appearanoe. A meeting between both groups would be more appropriate for this
appearance.
Please reconsider this issue and perhaps define "neutral".
DeWayne Kemp, Chairman
Village ofthe Lower Keys Steering Committee
