Cheers: To the Monroe County Commission for tasking staff to come up with a reopening plan for libraries and the Planning Department. While COVID-19 is still a very real issue, we also must start transitioning to a more normal life. Other establishments are open or are opening, and the commission and its employees are using the services; why are they immune from in-person operations where applicable? Cheers: To the City of Key West, as it continues to work toward improving the quality of life on the island. Through community group meetings, numerous surveys and an all-day workshop, city officials have been able to identity nine areas to prioritize in the cityâs three-year strategic plan, which is currently being developed.
