• Following a presentation from board chair Mel Montagne of Fair Insurance Rates in Monroe (FIRM), a nonprofit and nonpartisan advocacy and lobbying group that works to bring insurance inequities to light in the eyes of state officials, the commission elected to give the group $50,000 to continue addressing pressing concerns affecting Keys property owners.

• The commission unanimously voted to approve an employment agreement with current Medical Examiner Michael Steckbauer to create a County Medical Examiner Department with Steckbauer as its head. Addressing the commission, Steckbauer said that absorbing the previously independent office will allow for greater control of the position and easier recruitment of new employees as necessary.

• The commission unanimously approved an ordinance to create the Richard A. Recupero Park at Key West’s Hawk Missile Site. As set forth in the ordinance, the park will be open for recreational use by the public between 7 a.m. and 11 p.m. Camping, alcohol, fires, grilling, drones and overnight parking are prohibited.

• The commission unanimously accepted a proposal from Banc of America Capital Corp. to provide the county with lease-purchase financing for the three Leonardo AW139 helicopters that will eventually replace the current Monroe County Sheriff’s Office Trauma Star air ambulances. The 15year agreement for the $53 million purchase comes with an interest rate of 3.25%.

• Dozens of law enforcement personnel and other first responders filled the meeting’s early portion to support Florida Highway Patrol Lt. Kathleen McKinney. Due to retire after 40 years of service, McKinney was presented with an Honorary Conch certificate by the commission.

Briefly

Traffic advisory issued for Marathon boat races

The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office would like to remind motorists and mariners that the Seven Mile Offshore Grand Prix is this weekend, April 29 and 30. The race will occur in the Gulf of Mexico, north of the Old Seven Mile Bridge. Motorists should expect some delays on U.S. 1 during the race and plan accordingly. There will be no stopping or parking allowed on the shoulder, curb or directly on U.S. 1 during this event. Sheriff’s Office deputies and Florida Highway Patrol troopers will be patrolling to ensure this behavior does not occur.

Driver in stolen vehicle arrested after pursuit

A 36-year-old New Albany, Ohio man who allegedly fled from the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office in a van reported stolen out of Key West was arrested on April 25.

According to the Sheriff’s Office, Evan Joseph Dodge was charged with fleeing and eluding, DUI, reckless driving and possession of drug paraphernalia. Additional charges with the Key West Police Department may be pending.

The Sheriff’s Office saw the van northbound on U.S. 1 near MM 18 at about 4:41 p.m. The van, driven by Dodge, did not stop and continued northbound on its rims after the Sheriff’s Office spiked its tires.

Dodge eventually stopped near MM 30 and was taken into custody without further incident. Dodge allegedly stated he had been smoking methamphetamine. There were no passengers in the vehicle.

MHS band seeks instrument repair sponsors

The Marathon High School band currently has many older wind instruments that are in need of repair to work properly for students. There are 65 instruments that are in need of repair. Most repairs are more than $100 each. The band is asking for sponsors to “adopt an instrument” for repair. Each sponsorship is for $75 and will include a brass engraved name plate on the instrument case with the sponsor's name, foundation name or business name in a prominent location. Each instrument repair sponsor will also be listed in the band concert programs for the remainder of the 2022-23 and 2023-24 school years. Community support will help keep participation in band and music classes free for every student. Sponsors may write checks payable to “Marathon Band” with “instrument repair sponsorship” in the memo line. They can be mailed to the high school, dropped off, or picked up if requested.

FILE NO.: 23-CP-000047-P

IN RE: ESTATE OF JEAN ELLEN PINDER, Deceased.

NOTICE OF ADMINISTRATION

The administration of the estate of Jean Ellen Pinder, deceased, is pending in the Circuit Court for Monroe County, Florida, Probate Division, the address of which is 88770 Overseas Highway, Suite 2, Plantation Key, Florida 33070.

The file number for the estate is 23-CP-000047-P. The estate is testate and the date of the decedent’s Will is March 23, 2017.

The names and addresses of the personal representative and the personal representative's attorney are set forth below. The fiduciary lawyer-client privilege in Section 90.5021, Florida Statutes, applies with respect to the personal representative and any attorney employed by the personal representative. Any interested person on whom a copy of the notice of administration is served must file with the court, on or before the date that is 3 months after the date of service of a copy of the Notice of Administration on that person, any objection that challenges the validity of the will or any codicils, venue, or jurisdiction of the court. The 3 month time period may only be extended for estoppel based upon a misstatement by the personal representative regarding the time period within which an objection must be filed. The time period may not be extended for any other reason, including affirmative representation, failure to disclose information, or misconduct by the personal representative or any other person. Unless sooner barred by section 733.212(3), Florida Statutes, all objections to the validity of a will or any codicils, venue or the jurisdiction of the court must be filed no later than the earlier of the entry of an order of final discharge of the personal representative or 1 year after service of the notice of administration.

Persons who may be entitled to exempt property under section 732.402, Florida Statutes, will be deemed to have waived their rights to claim that property as exempt property unless a petition for determination of exempt property is filed by such persons or on their behalf on or before the later of the date that is 4 months after the date of service of a copy of the notice of administration on such persons or the date that is 40 days after the date of termination of any proceedings involving the construction, admission to probate, or validity of the will or involving any other matter affecting any part of the exempt property. Unless an extension is granted pursuant to section 732.2135(2), Florida Statutes, an election to take an elective share must be filed on or before the earlier of the date that is 6 months after the date of service of a copy of the notice of administration on the surviving spouse, an agent under chapter 709, Florida Statutes, or a guardian of the property of the surviving spouse; or the date that is 2 years after the date of the decedent's death. Under certain circumstances and by failing to contest the will, the recipient of the notice of administration may be waiving his or her right to contest the validity of a trust or other writing incorporated by reference into a will.
