AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Comments from Sheriff Peryam regarding the upcoming Bone
Island Triathlon — January 13, 2013.
ITEM BACKGROUND: A Full Iron Man Triathlon is scheduled for January 13, 2013, from Key
West to Bahia Honda State Park. Coordinators of the triathlon hope to attract approximately 1,000
participants. This event is scheduled during the winter season when the traffic conditions in the Keys
are at their worst. The addition of triathlon participants to our primary roadway (i.e.; bicycles riding
the shoulder of the road way, traversing neighborhoods, crossing intersections along the planned
route, check points, etc.) causes several traffic and safety concerns.
