Quotes

NCA  writes on its website to  "come outout to honor the service and sacrifice of our nation's fallen heroes." U S Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric K Shinseki issued an official  news release  on Friday:
"Cape Florida State Park, located at the southern tip of Key Biscayne, provides clear, emerald-colored waters and gentle surf. This fine, white coral sand beach is great for swimming, as waves are knocked down by a large sand shoal offshore. In addition, the Cape Florida Lighthouse allows for a breath-taking view of this beautiful beach."
"County offices including Planning, Facilities, Environmental Services, the Tax Assessor's Office, Road/Engineering, EMS and the Sheriff's Department rely on recent aerial imagery to perform their duties" said Hanks
"The traditional source of funding is fuel taxes," Gaughan said. "As cars and trucks become more efficient and use less fuel, there will necessarily be less funding derived from that source. You're obviously seeing this across the country and tolling is becoming a more regular way to fund projects on this scale."
