Neugent: ‘Good luck’ What each agency pays for fleet management Monroe County Administrator Roman Gastesi has floated the idea of what he calls a public service alliance when it comes to maintaining government auto fleets.He said he plans to explore the concept with all Keys and governments and other agencies. The Keynoter obtained fleet information from all five Keys cities plus eight other bodies.Layton is not listed because it has no vehicles and only four part-time employees. Government fleets include vehicles besides cars and trucks. For example, of Monroe County's 706-unit fleet, just 144 are county-owned cars, trucks or SUVs.The rest are a variety of equipment, including: ● 260 Sheriff's Office's vehicles (according to that agency). ● 70 pieces of medium- and heavy-duty equipment like tractors, chippers, loaders and backhoes. ● 61 fixed and portable generators. ● 58 pieces of small equipment like lawnmowers, trimmers and pumps. ● 27 heavy-duty trucks. ● Two medium-duty trucks. The figures are broken down by fleet size, number of overall employees, maintenance budget and method. Maintenance budgets include salaries, fuel and other costs. Size Employees Budget Maintenance

Now we do not have that assurance,” Saunders told the Keynoter last year. CELEBRATING OUR PAST It was DCA intervention that proved critical in 2009 to stop massive development on Stock Island of a 300-room hotel, marina, retail shops and ferry terminal green-light- ed on a split-vote by a previous county commission. That vote to override the county’s own land plan, led by the so-called Gang of Three, ultimately brought defeat at the polls for Dixie Spehar, Sonny McCoy and then Mario Di Gennaro. The current commission has a much better track record when it comes to being a watchdog over ill-conceived development. But that’s little guarantee some future commission might not be more reckless. Richard Grosso, the attorney who represented the 1000 Friends of Florida in the Palm Beach County case, told the Florida News Service the appellate court’s ruling will reinforce local growth controls at a time when state law- makers have weakened state oversight of growth management. “Once they are written, comprehensive plans mean what they say,” Grosso said, “not what a majority of county commissioners think should happen.” When the idea of a super-majority vote was floated last December, we editorialized in support of the proposal. After what’s happened to gut DCA since Scott took office in January, we are even more convinced this is a good move.

Catch shares Representatives from commercial-fishing groups, including the Florida Keys Commercial Fishermen’s Association, hailed this week’s move by U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen to limit the effects of federal catch- share programs. “I have met with many local fishermen from my con- gressional district and they all complain about the adverse affects of these catch-share programs,” Ros-Lehtinen said. “They are adamantly opposed to the privatization of one of our greatest natural resources, which is a primary component of catch shares.” Catch shares allocate a specific percentage of a fishery to each commercial har- vester, depending on the fisherman’s catch history. A bill being co-sponsored by Ros-Lehtinen would require approval by a majority of active fishermen in a tar- geted species for a new catch- share plan to be enacted. In addition, any catch-share program that eliminates 15 percent or more of fishers in a program would be eliminated.
