GOVERNING BOARD
June 15, 2000 Meeting Minutes
The Governing Board of the Monroe County Comprehensive Plan Land Authority held a regular
meeting on Thursday, June 15, 2000 at the Marathon Government Center. Chairman Nora
Williams called the meeting to order at 10:55 AM. Answering roll call, in addition to Chairman
Williams, were Mayor Shirley Freeman, Mayor Emeritus Wilhelmina Harvey, Commissioner
George Neugent, and Commissioner Mary Kay Reich. Also in attendance were Executive
Director Mark Rosch, Office Manager Kimberly Nystrom, Counsel Larry Erskine, and members
of the press and public.
The first item on the agenda was approval of minutes for the May 18, 2000 meeting. A motion
was made by Commissioner Reich and seconded by Commissioner Neugent to approve the
minutes as submitted. There being no objections, the motion carried (5/0).
The next item was approval of a resolution updating the appropriation of funding for the Plan
2000 affordable housing initiatives. Mr. Rosch explained that the proposed resolution calls for
the Land Authority to acquire building sites for the Monroe County Housing Authority's new
program for constructing single family and duplex rental units. The Board discussed the
possibility of repackaging properties previously acquired by the Land Authority as an alternative
to purchasing new parcels and directed staff to research the feasibility of this alternative. A
motion was made by Mayor Freeman and seconded by Mayor Emeritus Harvey to approve the
proposed resolution as submitted. There being no objections, the motion carried (5/0).
[Resolution 04-2000]
The next item was approval of contracts to purchase the following property:
a) Block 1, Lots 8 through 17, Silas Knowles subdivision (PB 1-61) on Big Pine Key at a total
cost of $2,353.50;
b) Block 4, Lot 27, Cutthroat Harbor Estates subdivision (PB 4-165) on Cudjoe Key at a total
cost of $3,630.00; and
c) Block 4, Lot 7, Silver Shores Estates subdivision (PB 4-111) on Ramrod Key at a total cost
of $22,576.30.
All of the above properties are to be purchased with Preservation 2000 funds. A motion was
made by Mayor Freeman and seconded by Mayor Emeritus Harvey to approve the purchases
as submitted. There being no objections, the motion carried (5/0).
Mr. Rosch reported that staff has prepared the necessary documentation to request
"Reimbursement #3" in State Preservation 2000 funds from the Florida Communities Trust in the
amount of $2,008,092.92. He distributed a table indicating the specific properties which will be
restricted to conservation or recreational uses as a result of the reimbursement. The Board
directed staff to proceed with the reimbursement process.
Mr. Rosch reported that the Florida Keys Invasive Exotics Task Force will be receiving $277,000
in State funding for stewardship activities. Some of this funding can be used to manage lands
included in Reimbursement #3. Staff will report on this matter in more detail at future meetings.
