Key Club holds town hall meeting

The goal of the Longboat Key Club’s Islandside Redevelopment Plan Town Hall meeting is to give those voices that haven’t been heard a chance to discuss the plan.

“We want anyone there who is on the fence or has questions,” Longboat Key Club Public Relations Manager Katherine Songster said.

The meeting will begin with a 15-minute presentation by Key Club General Manager Michael Welly. A panel discussion moderated by Longboat Key, Lido Key, St. Armands Key Chamber of Commerce President Tom
Aposporos will follow. Panelists will include north-Key registered voter Bill Kary and mid-Key registered voter
Terry Gans, Mar Vista Dockside Restaurant & Pub owner Ed Chiles, Longboat Key Kiwanis Club President Vince De Lisi and former Longboat Key Holiday Inn executive Carole Nikla.

“Given these times and recent events on Longboat Key, this project may be one of the most important events of our time,” Aposporos said.
