Hurricane Evacuation

.

Citizens in the Keys, are suppose to be able to evacuate the Keys within a 24 hour time frame, for their safety when a hurricane approaches.

With so much growth in the Keys, it is very debatable as to the current safety of hurrican evacuation, whether it would be possible to evacuate everyone in time.

Development in the Keys, is limited for this reason, and Developers are trying to change the rules in order for the state to allow them permits to build more.

We try to offer letters, news articles for this subject. It is not a complete list.

we welcome your opinion

The Florida Department of Transportation should honor their previous pronouncements that they would not pave a fifth lane through Key Largo. Furthermore, FDOT should apologize to the citizens of Monroe County for their seedy tactics in this matter.
