Review and Comment on the Draft GreenKeys! Sustainability Action Plan

Monroe County, Florida – The County’s Draft GreenKeys! Sustainability Action Plan (“Plan”) has been posted for public review and comment. The GreenKeys! project is the County’s initiative to create a more sustainable Florida Keys and begin planning to prepare for climate change and sea level rise impacts that will affect the Keys. This project was designed to be a public process, encouraging and inviting residents and business owners to engage in the process over the project duration. Consistent with that design, we now encourage residents and business owners to review the posted Plan and provide comments on the draft document. It is important for the public to provide feedback and input to the County on the recommendations in this Plan so that the County can most appropriately prioritize planning efforts to address both sea level rise and sustainability into the future. The draft documents posted for review and comment include:

  • Executive Summary – summary overview of the entire Plan and results;
  • Recommendations – includes the Plan recommendations broken down by Focus Area;
  • GreenKeys! Sustainability Action Plan – entire GreenKeys! Plan including results of the vulnerability assessments, sea level rise modeling and sustainability evaluation and recommendations to increase the County’s overall sustainability and resilience;
  • Implementation Matrix – provides the method and timeline for implementing Plan recommendations, as well as potential funding sources and costs where applicable;
  • Appendices – supporting documentation referenced in the Plan.
