changed; and
WHEREAS, the FKAA Board of Directors is currently composed of members appointed
by the Governor of the State of Florida; and
WHEREAS, in response to concerns raised by citizens of Monroe County regarding the
FKAA Board of Directors, the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) sought input from the
public at one regularly scheduled Board meeting in each area of the Florida Keys (Lower,
Middle and Upper) regarding the method of selection; and
WHEREAS, on March 21, 2012, in response to the public input received over the past
several months, the BOCC voted unanimously to place a non - binding referendum question
