: Using a disability to be cheap may be a real
: disability.
understand being disabled does not mean just being confined to a wheelchair. For that I'm sorry for the lack of knowledge and understanding
: useful for the truly disabled even if they

: Subject: Re: Posting of the RFP/RFQs
:
: Good afternoon Mr. Geotis,
:
: Yes, that was what I was looking for.
:
: I want to thank you for your time in
: this matter.
:
: I believe by taking action now, it will
: save the City of Marathon millions of
: dollars in the future. And bring in even
: more cruisers (who spend money).
:
: Two (2) Items though, we will still need
: the city to approve no dinghy dockage fee
: for the disabled until the docks are in
: compliance.
:
: The new ordnance will need to be approve
: within
: 60 days from September 11,2007. So that
: everything is on the up and up.
:
: Once the dinghy docks are in compliance you
: can sign me up 1st.
:
: The 2nd item I'd like to pass by you is:
: In Key Largo, their water taxis have
: wheelchair access.
:
: I have seen and heard from the operators
: of
: the taxi, that many tourist are now
: going to
: Key Largo because they are able to get
: out
: on the water due to the availability of
: water taxis with the wheelchair access.
:
: The city hands out grant for different
: support groups, why not some kind of
: grant
: for the water taxi so they can get setup
: for
: wheel chair access? No reason for Key
: Largo
: to get all the money.
:
: You may contact them for added
: information
: at either 305-394-1980 or 305-451-2102.
: ask for Capt. Mick.
:
: I believe this would add great value to
: the
: harbor and the City of Marathon.
:
: But yes Mr. Geotis, I know one thing at a
: time.
:
: And I do thank you greatly for your help,
:
