A call for change

One of the most fantastic advantages of being the owner of a coffee shop here on our tropical island Key west, is that we get to talk to local people of all walks of life.
Everyone of our customers has their own idea how to make our town a better place.
I would like to start a conversation on our blog with fresh ideas without politics, because there is one thing that all of our loyal coffee drinkers have in common and that is that they all feel that our local government is out of touch with the needs of our community.
No, we don't need a water park, no, we don't need a 16 story hotel at the airport, and no, we sure don't need a 400 room resort on stock island under the assumption that it would be a hurricane shelter in times of need and this is just too name a few...

What if we had a clean slate, what if the people of Key West can design their own town?
What would it be like?
A old town Key West with electric cars only... no exceptions...
All power lines underground...
All old town streets paved in cobble stone...

I, for one, would love to kick off this project and make Key West a sample town for the rest of the country...
