The Matecumbe Historical Trust is committed to the creation of the definitive anthropological and historical museum of the Florida Keys. The museum will preserve the unique history of the Keys, and it will become the pre-eminent repository of artifacts as well as a venue for academic symposia and research about the Keys and related subjects worldwide. It will house Mr. Eyster’s vast collection of artifacts, photographs, historical articles, and memorabilia. It will be enhanced by individual items and collections donated or loaned from others who have directly contacted us to express their most sincere interest. It will be a significant educational center for residents and tourists. Some of the themes to be included in the permanent collection will be: Geologic, Prehistoric, Explorations, Shipwrecks, Wreckers, Settlers, Pirates, Lighthouse, Military Presence, Spanish Connection, Flagler Railway, Fishing, Hurricanes, Post Hurricane, Overseas Highway, Tourism, and Commercial.

  • 2. Introduction and Background: Why Islamorada Matters?
    2. Introduction and Background: Why Islamorada Matters? Over the past decade, Islamorada, Village of Islands (“Islamorada” or “Village”) has undertaken several ini- tiatives to implement policies and projects to become more sustainable, improve stormwater management, improve water quality, and address other threats to safety and property within the Village. This Islamorada Matters Plan (“Plan”) furthers the Village’s commitment to sustainability and sea level rise preparedness.3 This Plan evaluates the Village’s current level of preparedness and investigates the potential impacts of sea level rise, exceptionally high tides, storm surge and other sea level rise issues. This effort officially launched in April 2014 and was conducted in tandem with a general planning effort being conducted by Monroe Coun- ty (“County”) on sustainability, sea level rise vulnerability and climate change. While concurrently undertaken with the County’s planning process, the initiatives discussed in this Plan were developed with specific focus on the Village and its goals. As vulnerability and sea level rise modeling data were developed for this project, candidate adaptation strategies were developed and publicly discussed, and a series of public meetings were held to help the community understand what Islamorada will face and what can be done to manage the challenges. These workshops were instrumental in understanding the concerns related to sea level rise and addressing com- munity priorities related to adaptation. This Plan incorporates the results of the planning process, including a discussion of the sea level rise modeling done for Islamorada, results of Islamorada’s preliminary sustain- ability assessment, goal priorities developed for the Village, and an implementation strategy with potential funding sources and policy recommendations to implement desired priorities.
