The site is depicted below: Under Section 255.065, Florida Statutes, the County is required to publish notice of the acceptance of an unsolicited proposal and a willingness to accept competing proposals. The Board of County Commissioners of Monroe County has determined that this unsolicited proposal is sufficient for consideration on a preliminary basis and, as such, Monroe County will accept competing proposals for the design, construction and financing of a new fire station on the site of the existing Sugarloaf Volunteer Fire Station at 17175 Overseas Highway, Sugarloaf Key during this notification period.

Persons or entities submitting competing proposals are advised that such proposals must be in compliance with Section 255.065, Florida Statutes including, but not limited to, Subsection 255.065(4), Florida Statutes.
