NEW FEATURE FROM ALYSON CREAN


The City of Key West was pleased to welcome Ms. Shamele Jenkins of the Miami Foster and Adoptive Parent Association and her group to Key West last week.

They were greeted at the port by the City's Special Projects Coordinator Dorian Patton brought them to City Hall where they were welcomed by Mayor Teri Johnston, Commissioner Clayton Lopez, City Manager Albert Childress, and Administrative Assistant Portia Navarro.

They were treated to a discussion of the Bahama Village Community Quilt by local artist Sally Binard and Michael Ross of the Studios of Key West. The quilt was made possible by The Studios of Key West and artist William Rhodes, Keys Arts Counsel, CFFK, and the Bahama Village Music program.

Poet Arita Wright treated them to a reading, and Commissioner Lopez talked about Key West history. They then visited the Key West African Cemetery and met Monroe County Historian Corey Malcom for a discussion of the history of the cemetery

--------------------------------------------------------------------


Mayor Teri Johnston and the Key West City Commission have proclaimed July as Recreation and Parks Month.

The declaration dovetails with recognition countrywide by the National Recreation and Park Association as well as the Florida Recreation and Park Association.

“Parks and recreation programs enhance our quality of life by contributing to healthy lifestyles, building community, creating economic development, and encouraging environmental stewardship,” reads the proclamation. In addition, they “boost the economy, enhance property values, attract new business, increase tourism, and reduce crime.”

Recreation helps build “family unity, strengthens neighborhood involvement, offers opportunity for social interaction, enhances education, develops creativity, and promotes cultural diversity.”

The honor was accepted by Tiffany Pellicier, Chairperson of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, and Roger McVeigh, Vice Chair.

In the photo: Commissioners Mary Lou Hoover and Lissette Carey, Parks and Recreation Advisory Board Vice Chair Roger McVeigh and Chairperson Tiffany Pellicier, Mayor Teri Johnston, and Commissioners Clayton Lopez and Billy Wardlow. Vice Mayor Sam Kaufman was in attendance via Zoom.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Mayor Teri Johnston and the Key West City Commission commended the Florida Small Business Development Center (FSBDC) at Florida International University for its recent national recognition.

The Center started working with small businesses in the Keys in 2018. The team of highly experienced consultants provides assistance and training to entrepreneurs and business owners in the City of Key West and Monroe County to help them start, grow, and succeed.

FSBDC at FIU work one-on-one with small businesses providing startup assistance, access to capital, marketing, financial management, government contracting, human resources and business strategy advising.

The Center has delivered more than 2,215 hours of consulting to 223 Key West small businesses, resulting in business owners securing over $18.4 million in capital, securing $7.3 million in government contracts, increasing sales by $8.6 million, impacting 1,548 jobs, and launching 13 new businesses.

In April, the U.S. Small Business Administration announced SBDC at FIU as the winner of the 2023 Small Business Development Center Excellence and Innovation Award, which recognizes the country’s top small business center.

Regional Director Brian Van Hook accepted the honor with consultants Nancy Hull, Bonnie Barns, and Julie Brown. They were joined on the dais by Nick Formico, owner of Key West Marine Hardware who is the Center’s Keys Client of the Year.

“We talk about numbers on a page but its actually all about the business owners,” said Van Hook. “Nick here was our Client of the Year. And that’s what we’re all about, helping local business owners.”



The Key West Police Department and the Monroe County Sheriff's Office are teaming up for another National Night Out family event. On Tuesday, August 1st, from 5:30 p.m. until 7:30 p.m., we invite the community to come meet our first responders who keep us all safe. The Lower Keys event will be held at Bayview Park in Key West. Monroe County Sheriff's Office will also host events at the Aviation Hangar in Marathon, Founder's Park in Islamorada, and at the Key Largo Community Park.

This national annual event is aimed at increasing awareness about assets and resources in the community. There will be an exciting array of displays and equipment used by police, firefighters, as well as our military and community partners. There will be everything from special teams, fire trucks and boats to dogs, horses and more at this great family event. The kids will love the animals from the Monroe County Sheriff's Farm! There will also be music, free food and beverages.

The Bayview Park National Night Out is a convenient location for residents of all ages to come see what we do and meet your local first responders. It dovetails with events held across the nation, including those hosted by the Monroe County Sheriff's Office in the Upper and Middle Keys.


In the photo: Sheriff Rick Ramsay and Police Chief Sean Brandenburg invite the community to visit one of four National Night Out locations.


Mayor Teri Johnston and the Key West City Commission honored Dr. Jonathan C. Carey, who recently received the President's Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition of his 5,000 hours of service to the United States of America through community development and emergency services.

Dr. Carey is a minister, author, certified life coach, an Assemblies of God USA commissioned chaplain, and the lead pastor of Glad Tidings Tabernacle in Key West. He has served as chair for the faith based juvenile justice program for Monroe County, served as disaster response chaplain throughout the country on a volunteer basis, and served as a volunteer counselor during the aftermath of the George Floyd killing.

Dr. Carey taught crisis and trauma care for debriefing purposes. He has volunteered as a worker during rebuilds after storms, developed a food assistance program and served in it, and served as a counselor on Native American reservations.

The President's Lifetime Achievement Award was initially established by President George W. Bush as the President's Volunteer Service Award. It has become the President's Lifetime Achievement Award and is the most prestigious national recognition of extraordinary service.

"It an honor to live in the greatest city in the greatest nation and to add value to the greatest people on the earth," he told the commission as he accepted the award with his wife Shena.

Mayor Teri Johnston and the City Commission unanimously approved a resolution affirming that Key West continues to be a Welcoming City.

The resolution emphasizes the City's commitment to ensuring the rights of residents and visitors, including drag queens, gender nonconforming, transgender, cisgender and all manner of humans to walk upon, and to use, public spaces while wearing attire of their own choosing, as long as it is in compliance with the City's nudity ordinance and public health requirements.

In addition, it acknowledges the Drag Community for elegance and originality, for their ability to unite the community and for boundless events, and the contributions benefiting the charitable causes of our City.

"Key West's 'One Human Family' philosophy," reads the resolution, "represents a commitment to protect the human rights of all citizens, and the Key West City Commission categorically condemns violence, discrimination, hate, intimidation, harassment or similar acts that undermine the fabric of what makes the Key West community unique and vibrant."


Mayor Teri Johnston and the City Commission, in recognition of his 100th birthday, have proclaimed June 15th Frank Toppino Day.

Mr. Frank, as many of his friends call him, was born on June 15, 1923 in Winter Park, Florida to Charley and Orsolina Toppino.

Charley Toppino and Sons was established in the 1920s and moved to Homestead in 1933. As a teenager, Frank worked his first job driving trucks from Homestead down to Marathon, delivering potable water to contractors building bridges over the overseas railroad via ducts after the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935 washed away the tracks. By the 1940s, the family and business relocated to Key West.

Mr. Frank enlisted in the U.S. Air Force in 1941 and spent 15 months in China. He was honorably discharged as Staff Sergeant in 1945. Back in Key West he married Betty Rose in 1947 and they had three children, Daniel, Ramona and Richard.

Mr. Frank has been an active and generous member of the community. He has as a member of the Florida Keys Educational Foundation, Mel Fisher Museum, Military Affairs Committee, Monroe County Contractors Association, and the Sunrise Rotary. He served on the Board of Trustees of the Florida Keys Community College, served as President of the Key West Chamber of Commerce, and was appointed to the Key West Housing Authority Board of Commissioners in 1991 by former Mayor Dennis Wardlow and has served continuously for 32 years.

His service and generosity have been acknowledged by many awards and recognitions. Mr. Frank was the 1993 Chamber of Commerce Hall of Fame Award recipient and he won the Florence Spottswood Humanitarian of the Year Award. The Frank P. Toppino Poinciana Gardens Senior Living Complex was dedicated in honor of him in recognition of his outstanding dedicated service providing for the housing needs of the community.

This 100th milestone was celebrated during the June 8th City Commission meeting where he was greeted with a standing ovation and a chocolate cake.
