  • A response to the Chamber

    Permit me to comment on the recent letter from the Chamber of Commerce vis-a-vis my campaign statement urging the City of Cedar Key to stop the Chamber subsidy.  My thinking was as follows:  the City bought the Creswell House in 2008 for $330,000, and renovated it in 2010 for use as a Welcome Center at a cost of $67,807.  The City’s investment was thus $397,807.

  • Airboat noise is an nuisance

    I am not a resident of Cedar Key, but I am a property owner and therefore a taxpayer. I am just finishing a six-week stay here in Cedar Key.
    Abomination is a strong word not to be used lightly, but it is a just description of the noise and disruption caused by airboats running close to the populated areas of the city. The amount of noise has increased since last year. Not only is it a great disturbance to the people but also to the wildlife. The city should establish a ban on airboats within a mile of the populated areas.

  • Cedar Key - a friendly and caring community

    This letter to the editor is to give a big “Thank you,” to the gentlemen from Pennsylvania and Arkansas in the ebay/Patty Ann and to the persons on shore who alerted them when my kayak sprang a leak on the way to Atsena Otie.
    Without your reserve, I would have been in the water and my kayak at the bottom. Thank you for your timely and generous help.
    Thank you, too, to the 911 operator, Cedar Key Police and Fire and Rescue, and anyone else who responded so quickly.
