$900M to harden Keys against climate change

Hardening the Florida Keys against climate change will carry a price tag of nearly $900 million for Monroe County, according to a study currently in the works by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. But the Florida Keys Coastal Storm Risk Management Feasibility Study no longer includes acquiring vulnerable private properties through eminent domain, as an earlier version of the plan did. The total cost of the proposed project would be about $2.5 billion as of now, 65% of which would be covered by the federal government, leaving the remainder to be split between the county and municipalities. Rhonda Haag, the county’s chief resilience officer, said the funding source for the remaining 35% could come from any source other than the federal government. Resiliency projects within municipalities would be paid for by the cities, while projects in unincorporated areas will be covered by the county.
