Project Management
The Monroe County Project Management Office contracts and builds all new public facilities for Monroe County, manages assigned special projects, and serves as the Tourist Development Council’s grant compliance inspection service.
The office also manages all capital improvement projects for existing buildings, parks, beaches, and boat ramps. We currently manage more than 100 capital projects with a total multi-year capital construction budget of $100 million.
The majority of this work is funded by the One-Cent Infrastructure Sales Tax. Grant awards account for significant supplemental capital funding.

Hurricane Irma
The Project Management Office also oversees $21 million in work to repair damage caused by Hurricane Irma at 48 structures, 17 parks, 7 boat ramps, and 3 tower sites. The office also managed more than $2 million in emergency and protective measures as a result of damage to buildings in the months following Irma.
Americans with Disabilities Act
Project Management is also responsible for studies, assessments, and evaluations, such as for the Americans with Disabilities Act Opens a New Window. (ADA). This law calls for the retrofitting of buildings to bring them into compliance. Monroe County plans to reassess buildings and sidewalks for ADA compliance in 2024. The original assessment was done in 2010.
