CELEBRATING OUR PAST But a few well-known facts shed light on the magni- tude of this “oops.” Contractors who built HOB in the early 1960s knew the ground there was mucky because the area was always known to be swampy. That’s why they built the original building on pilings. Now, the contractor is telling the board that in addi- tion to the mucky soil, it has to remove the old pilings. Go figure. Who can forget the flooding problems that used to plague the Key West police and fire station, which lies FALCON adjacent to HOB? Certainly not city officials, who wound up paying $1.5 million in mitigation after removing mangroves that grew alongside the Riviera Canal basin fronting the property. At the time (2007), the city - citing flooding emer- gency - removed mangroves without required state per- mits. City engineers said mangrove roots were blocking seven outfall pipes that drained excess water from streets in the area. Hint: Mangroves grow in wet, swampy areas.

The city and Monroe County each have a moratori- um in place on new hotel units. The only way to secure them now is to purchase them from private owners. Moretti said he values his at between $50,000 and $100,000 each. “It wasn’t the city’s inten- tion — nor do I think we can — to sell these units,” Vice Mayor Dick Ramsay said. “I believe we have to ... make these available to mom-and- pop” establishments.
