  • Benthic Resource Assessment Knights Key Resort Water Observation Platform
    Benthic Resource Assessment Knights Key Resort Water Observation Platform Prepared for: Knights Key Resort 1 Knights Key Boulevard Marathon, Florida 33050 Prepared by: May 21, 2018 Knights Key Resort Observation Platform – Benthic Resource Assessment Introduction Knights Key Resort is located at 1 Knights Key Boulevard, marathon, Monroe County, Florida. The facility is currently undergoing re-development as a resort hotel. A water observation platform is proposed to provide guests viewing access to the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The proposed water observation platform is a “T” design that extends from uplands out into shallow waters. The proposed walkway is 4’ in width and extends appx. 119’ over submerged lands and wetlands. The proposed terminal platform is 160 sf (16 x 10). The entire structure (walkway and terminus) is elevated a minimum of + 5.0 MHW and the decking is light-transmitting grating. The project was designed to comply with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers/National Marine Fisheries Service “Construction Guidelines in Florida for Minor Piling- Supported Structures Constructed in or over Submerged Aquatic Vegetation”. Project plans prepared by Weiler Engineering were submitted as part of the application for the project and contain full construction details. An assessment of the benthic resources potentially impacted by the project expansion project was conducted on May 11, 2018. The objective of the benthic assessment was to assess and document living marine resources potentially impacted by the proposed project. In addition, a specific-purpose survey for corals was conducted to fulfill Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS) requirements. Methods An in-water assessment of the project area was conducted on May 11, 2018 by scientific divers experienced in conducting resource assessments of benthic habitats found in the Florida Keys.

  • EMERGENCY EVACUATION BUS PICK-UP STOPS Monroe County
    EMERGENCY EVACUATION BUS PICK-UP STOPS Monroe County encourages individuals living in storm surge planning zones and mobile homes to have arrangements in place to stay outside of the areas called for phased evacuations during a tropical storm or hurricane. These arrangements should be in place prior to the start of hurricane season (June 1st). Monroe County Emergency Management will activate specific Emergency Evacuation Bus Pick-Up Stops along US 1 Highway as directed by the Monroe County Sheriff Office. In addition to the zones, mobile home parks are vulnerable to high winds and residents are encouraged to take buses at nearest designated stop if unable to provide their own transportation. It is the responsibility of the residents to get to designated pick up site. These Emergency Evacuation Bus Pick-Up Stops are identified by the attached Monroe County Sheriff list. The buses placed into service for the evacuation will have displays that read “EMERGENCY EVACUATION” and these buses will only travel between the Emergency Evacuation Bus Pick-Up Site and the Hurricane shelter out of the county. Please note that the evacuation zones are pre-determined individually for each storm. ZONE 1: MM 0 to MM6 ZONE 2: MM 6 to MM 40 ZONE 3: MM 40 to MM 63 ZONE 4: MM 63 to 3-way stop at CR 905-A ZONE 5: CR 905-A to mainland Monroe County, including Ocean Reef 5 4 2 3 1 EMERGENCY EVACUATION BUS PICK-UP STOPS Bus Assignment: Run Stop Mile Key Stop Location Time Marker NOTE 4.6 Stock Island Vacant Lot North of Burger King 10 Big Coppitt Circle K 15 Saddlebunch Baby's Coffee 17 Sugarloaf Sugarloaf Blvd & US1 20 Sugarloaf Alamo Bldg.

    10 Charts That Prove the Florida Keys are Still the Best Lodging Market in the World August 4, 2020 1. Recession - Resistant Market During the 2009 financial crisis, occupancy in the Keys increased by 3% while the rest of the U.S. declined 10%. RevPAR recovered approximately twice as quickly as the broader U.S. The Keys are positioned as a safer, lower- cost, easier-to-access substitute for the Caribbean, Bahamas, Central America, and crowded cruise ships, translating to a 6% RevPAR CAGR over the past 10 years and a 4% RevPAR CAGR over the past 30 years.
