Keystone – the Great Northwest
Welcome to Keystone – The Great Northwest
We’re a growing community organization focused on improving the quality of life of citizens in the greater Keystone and Odessa area of Florida.
We are creating a community-based partnership of residents, businesses and property owners who will accept the challenge of working together in a positive manner for the good of all.
Please take a little time to explore our website. We want and need you to share your ideas with us. It cannot be denied. We are a growing community. What can we do to prepare for the future while preserving all the things that attracted us to Keystone/Odessa in the first place?
After finding out more information about the issues, we hope that you will Join Us Today!
Key Issues -
- Transportation - The Keystone/Odessa area has a system of failed roadways, Gunn Highway in particular. We need wider, safer roads with turning lanes at all intersections.
- Safety Issues - We need sidewalks and streetlights in our community.
- Utilities - We need the option to attach to county public water and wastewater systems.
- Schools - We need smaller local schools so our children won’t have to travel over potentially unsafe roads on buses to obtain their education.
- Convenience - It is unreasonable to expect residents to travel inconvenient distances to shop at a major grocery store or to pick up a prescription.
- Property Rights - We should have the right to choose the type of fencing that we want on our property or the type of roof that we want on our homes or businesses.
- Community Character - We want to retain Keystone’s historical flavor while allowing opportunity for improving quality of life.
- Jobs – A key component of quality of life is jobs. Without jobs, it is hard to have a nice quality of life.
