The Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) is seeking public participation regarding the state-mandated hurricane evacuation modeling discussions that will continue through January 2025.
Survey #5 is currently available and is designed to gauge public opinions and ideas concerning planning considerations for the future growth of the Florida Keys, including how many new residential units are preferred and how they ought to be distributed. The survey will remain open until Friday, Nov. 8 at 5 p.m.
Monroe County community members are invited to take this short survey, the fifth and final one. The survey is at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/rogosurvey5 and should take five to six minutes to complete.
This and past surveys will help officials learn more about community members’ basic knowledge of ROGO/BPAS, how locals live and commute, when residents evacuate during a hurricane, legal considerations and public opinion on additional residential growth. (Note: The first five questions of each survey are the same.)Monroe County is also hosting town hall meetings on Nov. 4, 6 and 7; an upcoming workshop on Nov. 20; and a special BOCC meeting on Dec. 19 regarding the Department of Commerce’s hurricane evacuation modeling to gauge public opinions on everything that affects evacuation timing and the number of additional ROGO/BPAS allocations the county and municipalities should request from the state. The hurricane evacuation modeling is based on a Florida Statute requiring that Monroe County residents be able to evacuate the Keys within 24 hours before a storm.
