Good work and coverage, Pru
I guess Sheriff Ramsay no longer is concerned for the safety of his female Sheriff headquarters and jail employees being so close to congregated homeless people on his road and College Road and the city transit bus stop there?
I wonder where homeless people will sleep nights while the new KOTS is being built a few feet from the present KOTS? Will the old KOTS stay open during the transition?
The city exercised due diligence in making sure the new KOTS would not be on Key West proper. And in making sure to avoid NIMBY.
A new KOTS takes care of the old KOTS not being built with city permits, but does not deal with the nuisance part of Barton Smith’s lawsuit. I have suspected Smith and the city made a backroom deal, in which the city gave Smith a lot of new building rights for so-called “affordable” rental housing at Sunset Marina, in exchange for Smith not trying to enforce the settlement agreement.
Can imagine the emotional currents in the Sunset Marina homeowner’s association over Smith not trying to enforcement the settlement agreement I suppose they hired them him to get for them.
