Dear Mr. Nixon:
This will acknowledge receipt of your proposal to apply the three new names, Venture
Key, Out Key, and Venture Out Keys (the latter name collectively) to two unnamed
islands located off Cudjoe Key, As you know, the US. Board on Geographic Na..l!1es is
responsible by law for standardizing geographic names for use by the Federal
Government, and its members must approve a new name before it can be applied to
Federal maps and products. We shall prepare a case brief for each of the three proposed
names and place them on the Board's next docket for review by all interested parties.
Because local acceptance of any proposed name is of paramount importance to the Board,
we shall ask the government of Monroe County to review your proposal and provide us
its recommendation on the names. By a copy of this response, we are also forwarding the
proposal to the Florida State Board on Geographic Names and the Office of Coast Survey
for their review and comment. If you wish to solicit additional letters of support, such as
from neighbors, local businesses, and/or area civic and maritime organizations, we would
welcome those for the case file.
As soon as our research is complete and all interested parties have had an opportunity to
comment, we shall present the cases for Venture Key, Out Key, and Venture Out Keys to
the US. Board for discussion and a decision. Although this entire process will likely take
several months, we shall notify you in writing as soon as that decision is rendered.
Thank you for your interest in the geographic names of Florida. If you have any
questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us, either by mail at the address
above; by telephone at (703) 648-4544; by fax at (703) 648-4549; or bye-mail at

Dear Mr, Cypress:
This is i!l reference to a proposal that the US_ Board on Geographic Names has received to apply
three new names, Out Key, Venture Key, and Venture Out Keys (both islands collectively), to two
unnamed islands located in Monroe County. As you know, the Board is responsible by law for
standardizing geographic names for use by the Federal Government, and its members must approve
a new name before it can be applied to Federal maps and publications.
Because local and regional acceptance of any proposed name is of paramount importance to the
Board and because we believe the features may lie in an area of cultural and/or historical interest to
your organization, we are contacting your office for an opinion on the proposed name. We have
included three Geographic Name Proposal Recommendation forms to facilitate a response [Tom your
office, as well as a photocopied portion of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA) nautical chart # 11445 SugarloafKey to Key West with the features highlighted.
In order for the Board to review all the responses and vote on this issue in a timely manner, we ask
that you respond with an opinion regarding the proposed names Out Key, Venture Key, and Venture
Out Keys within 45 days of receipt of this letter. Please note that if your organization chooses not to
respond, the Board will consider your opinion as 'neutral' and will make a decision that might affect
the use of names in your community. If you have any questions, or need additional information,
please do not hesitate to contact us either by mail at the above address, by telephone at (703) 648-
4544, or bye-mail at <bgnexec@usgs.gov>.

Dear Ms. Spehar:
This is in reference to a proposal that the U.S. Board on Geographic Names has received
to apply three new names to unnamed geographic features in Monroe County. As YOll
know, the U.S. Board is responsible by law for standardizing geographic names for use
by the Federal Government, and its members must approve a new name before it can be
applied to Federal maps and publications.
The proposed names in question are Venture Key. Out Key, and Venture Out Kevs.
These names were submitted to the Board by a resident ofCudjoe Key, who suggests
they would recognize the proximity ofthe features to the Venture Out community. The
two offshore islands are proposed to be named Venture Key and Out Key, while the name
Venture Out Keys would apply to the two islands collectively.
We have enclosed for your review a copy of the proposal, along with a photocopied
portion of an Office ofeoast Survey nautical chart on which the location of the features
is indicated. We have also asked the Florida State Board on Geographic Names and the
Office of Coast Survey to review and comment on this proposal.
Once we receive recommendations from all interested parties, we shall present the cases
for Venture Key. Out Key. and Venture Out Key~ to the u.s. Board for discussion and a
decision.
Thank you for your continued interest and assistance in these issues. As always, if you
have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us, either by mail at the
address above; by telephone at (703) 648-4544; or bye-mail at <BGNEXEC')SgS.gov>.

RESOLUTION
SUBJECT:
RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF NAMING ISLANDS OFF VENTURE
OUT SHORE
JANIE CATRON, PRESIDENT, VENTURE OUT BOARD OF
DIRECTORS
DECEMBER 15, 2003
SPONSOR:
DATE:
WHEREAS Venture Out @ Cudjoe Cay, Inc., A Condominium has enjoyed a long time presence in
the Florida Keys, and,
WHEREAS Florida Keys residents are familiar with a multitude of uninhabited islands in the near
waters of the keys, most of which have been given names and are so identified on existing
navigational charts, and,
WHEREAS two of these islands, situated just off the entrance of the Venture Out marina have yet
to be named, and,
WHEREAS Gerald Nixon, an owner and resident of Venture Out has expended much energy and
effort to facilitate the naming of these islands, taking appropriate steps to allow for the naming of
these islands, and,
WHEREAS the proposed names, "Venture Key" and "Out Key" seem entirely desirable and
deserving of the support of the Venture Out Board of Directors.
BE IT THEREFORE RESOLVED that the Venture Out Board of Directors, meeting in regular
session on December 15, 2003, does heartily support Mr. Nixon's efforts and urges the Monroe
County Board of Commissioners, as well as all other agencies responsible for the decision making
process to ratify his proposal in the naming of these islands and their subsequent inclusion'on future
navigational charts.
