Boot Key Harbor Message Board
Posted by Jim Lowry If in fact, the resolution you sponsored for Tuesday's City Council meeting agenda calling for City Manager Mike Puto to conduct a cost analysis and feasibility study of expanding the City of Marathon Marina by adding more slips and possibly including retail activities, passes, then sadly you will put Boot Key Harbor and the City of Marathon into a similar fight we has You are quoted as saying you ". would be willing to take a slower approach. " Lets get this straight, it is not you. It is the voters, the people who attended the latest workshop, It is the City of Marathon Mr. Vasil, not you. You can hire any firm experienced in designing dockage to evaluate the harbor. And because you (the Voters) are footing the bill, the firm will And the resolution you sponsored calling for a reduction in City Manager Mike Puto's spending threshold from $25,000 to $5,000, is absurd. You are quoted as saying ""I feel it's the responsibility to do oversight on these issues, not to inhibit the city manager from being able to spend, but to make sure every dollar is spent wisely," If a City Manager has to have a spending limit of $5,000.00 Then fire him. Mr. Vasil, don't burden the City Council with more than it already has. That is why we have a City Manager, to manage. It would appear that it is the City Council (you Mr. Vasil) that needs to restrained in spending, not our City Manager. Jim Lowry

Councilman Vasil you are quoted as saying ". I won't let a cool response to my proposal to add 190 boats slips to Boot Key Harbor stop me from exploring the possibilities there."
several years ago.
give you anything you want. Just as I can hire a firm to show why the slips can not be built, and I'll get what I want.
The Workshop held at the Marathon Garden Club should have shown you what the Voters wanted, but it appears it did not .
