Section 2.
In carrying the District purpose, the District is to be financed by ad
valorem taxes collected within the District. Nothing in this section prevents the Sheriff of
Monroe County from charging fees for services rendered to specific persons for enhanced
service (e.g., increased security at festivals and sporting events) so long as the fee(s) are
established in a uniformly applicable schedule approved by the Sheriff.
Section 3.
The District consists of the following areas:
a) the unincorporated area of Monroe County;
b) subject to the approval of their respective governing bodies as provided in
Section 8 of this ordinance, the following municipalities:
i) Key Colony Beach
ii) Layton
iii) Islamorada
iv) Marathon
v) Key West
vi) any municipality that incorporates after the effective date of this ordinance.
Section 4.
Subject to Section 8 of this ordinance, the governing body of the
District is the Board of County Commissioners, hereafter the Board. Members will not
receive additional compensation for their Board service.
Section 5.
The Board has the power to: levy ad valorem taxes as provided by
general law; make all necessary payments to the Sheriff of Monroe County for carrying out
the District purpose; enter into interlocal agreements under Sec. 163.01, FS; to enter into
contracts on behalf of the District, to sue and be sued; to adopt and use a common seal; to
exercise the power of condemnation as provided by general law; to otherwise acquire by
gift, negotiated purchase, or installment payment, real estate and personal property
including equipment and lease and convey the same, as provided by general law; employ
experts, agencies and employees proper and expedient to carry out the District purpose; to
borrow money and issue negotiable promissory notes, bonds or other certificates of
indebtedness, as provided by general law; and to exercise all powers granted by general law
to municipal service taxing units created pursuant to Sec. 125.01(1), FS.
2
Section 6. a) The Clerk of the Circuit Court, 16th Judicial Circuit, the ex-officio clerk
to the Board of County Commissioners, is the ex officio clerk, auditor, recorder of minutes
and accounts, and the custodian of the District funds unless or until the funds are
transferred to the Sheriff of Monroe County.
b) Except as provided in subsection 6(c), the District books must be
audited by the same County officers, employees or independent auditors, and in a similar
manner as the books of other County departments in conformity with applicable law and
generally accepted accounting principles.
c) The Clerk must not comingle District funds with other County revenues
and must maintain the District funds in an account or fund apart from other County funds or
revenue. District revenue not needed for immediate expenditure must be invested by the
Clerk in the same manner as other county surplus funds are invested. However, nothing in
this paragraph 6(c) prevents the Board from transferring District funds to the Sheriff of
Monroe County pursuant to Sec. 30.50, FS, for the purpose of providing local road patrol
law enforcement services within the District. In that case, the Sheriff is the custodian of the
District funds so transferred and must account for those funds as provided by general law.
Section 7. District funds may only be expended for the following purposes:
a) Payment(s) to the Sheriff of Monroe County for the provision of local
road patrol law enforcement services within the District.
b) Compensation to District employees, consultants, experts, and
independent contractors, not employed or hired by the Sheriff, when authorized by the
Board;
c) The purchase, construction, care, maintenance and operation of real
and personal property necessary for carrying out the District purpose, as authorized by the
Board;
d) The repayment of all debts lawfully incurred under this ordinance or
pursuant to general law.
3
Section 8. a) Any or all of the municipalities of Key Colony Beach, Layton,
Islamorada, Marathon, Key West, and any municipality that incorporates after the effective
date of this ordinance will be included within the District upon such municipality(ies) passing
a municipal ordinance approving inclusion before January 1 immediately prior to the
commencement of the fiscal year for which the municipality wishes to be included.
b) If one of the municipalities passes a timely ordinance electing to join
the District, then the Board will consist of four County Commissioners and one member of
the city council. If two municipalities elect to join the District, then the Board will consist of
three County Commissioners and a city council member from each municipality. If more
than two municipalities elect to join the District, then the Board will consist of three County
Commissioners and a city council member from the two municipalities with the highest and
next highest population, as determined from the most recently available census data. The
County Commission and city councils must designate their members by resolution.
Section 9. a) The Board is authorized and empowered to annually levy upon all the
real and personal property within the District, including participating municipalities, a
sufficient tax to pay all the necessary costs of whatever kind, including capital expenditures,
as authorized by this ordinance within the limits established for municipal service taxing
units under Art. 7, See. 9(b), Fla. Const., Sec. 125.01(1), FS, and Sec. 200.071(3), FS.
b) The levy by the Board of the taxes authorized by any provision of this
ordinance must be by resolution of the Board duly entered upon the minutes of the Board.
Millage must be set and ad valorem taxes levied thereon in accordance with the provisions
of general law and in like manner as required for the setting of millage and levy of ad
valorem taxes by a county. It is the duty of the Board to order and require the Property
Appraiser to assess, and the Tax Collector to collect, the amount of taxes so assessed or
levied by the Board upon the taxable property in the District at the rate of taxation adopted
by the Board for the year. The Tax Collector must collect such tax so levied by the Board in
the same manner as other taxes are collected, and must pay the same over to the Board
4
within the time and in the manner prescribed by law for the payment by the Tax Collector of
county taxes and which taxes then must be held by the Board and paid out as provided in
this ordinance. Tax certificates and tax deeds must be issued for all delinquent properties in
accordance with and as required by Chapter 197, FS, and other applicable law regarding the
issuance of same for nonpayment of delinquent county ad valorem taxes.
c) The Board of County Commissioners has determined that the District
ad valorem taxes provided for in this ordinance and the of local road patrol law enforcement
service authorized herein are municipal taxes for municipal benefits accruing to the
properties within the District upon which the ad valorem levies are directed to be made.
The Board of County Commissioners also finds and determines and declares that the of local
road patrol law enforcement service authorized in this ordinance is a public purpose and
essential municipal service under Sec. 125.01(l)(q), FS.
Section 10. The Board is authorized to pay from the funds of the District all
expenses necessarily incurred in the formation of the District.
Section 11. The officers of the Board have the duties, whether mandated by
statute or common law, usually pertaining to, vested in, and incumbent upon like officers.
A record must be kept of all meetings of the Board. The Board may adopt the rules and
regulations it deems necessary for the transaction of its business, and in carrying out the
provisions of this ordinance.
Section 12. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause or provision of this
ordinance is held invalid, the remainder of this ordinance shall not be affected by such
invalidity.
Section 13. All ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict with this ordinance are
hereby repealed to the extent of said conflict.

the Code of Ordinances of the County of Monroe, Florida, as an addition or amendment
5
thereto, and shall be appropriately renumbered to conform to the uniform numbering
system of the Code.
