Legislative Priorities 

Each year, we set clear legislative priorities that guide our advocacy on issues important to the City and our community.  The City Commission approves these priorities and helps shape how we engage with lawmakers, agencies, and funding opportunities.

Key focus areas include protecting our environment, supporting stormwater run-off and water quality, building resilience against flooding and storms, and securing funding that keeps Key West strong and sustainable.
