ZONING ON PROPERTIES AND/OR IN DEVELOPMENT PROCESS IN KEYSTONE/ODESSA ARE MONITORED


7302 Van Dyke Rd, Odessa, FL - Subdivision

by T. Lawton

Safe drinking water and the integrity of our wells is a priority for Keystone residents and this is one of many reasons the KOCP instituted the requirement for parcels to be no less than five acres. It was a direct result of destructive practices that damaged local residential resources.


Keystone Civic Association Land Use Committee is seeking and examining the documents that pre-dated the 2020 BOCC approval of a subdivision located at 7302 Van Dyke Rd which currently has only one home constructed. We have just learned the parcel has been platted as a subdivision with eight homes in which seven of the homes would have less than the five acre minimum required by the KOCP. It is adjacent to Van Dyke Farms however that subdivision was constructed prior to the adoption of the KOCP. We will continue to update you as we learn more about the decision making process and how it impacts Keystone.


Within Keystone, there are currently several commercial parcels along Tarpon Springs Rd. that are listed for sale. We are continually learning about land use policies and procedures and will keep you informed throughout the process. At this time, to our knowledge, there are no construction plans being presented to the county.

It would help any information residents obtain please forward to our main email.


Location 1:

10208 Tarpon Springs Rd, Odessa, FL 33556 - Property Record | LoopNet : From a resident member- We are passing on this message to all neighbors - STOP DUNKIN DONUTS FROM BUILDING A STORE at Tarpon Springs and Jorene Rd. Save our neighborhood!


Location 2:

11026 Tarpon Springs Rd, Odessa, FL 33556 - Tarpon Springs Rd | LoopNet : Keep an eye on this one, no specifics yet for this property.

Tentative Work Program - Veterans Expressway



NorthBound SR 589 Weaving Maneuvers Backs Up Lanes


A complaint addressed by KCA was presented by Mr Wade Reynolds to Florida’s Turnpike Enterprise regarding the weaving maneuvers observed on the northbound SR 589 approaching the Van Dyke Road exit. Herein is the response received from the Florida Turnpike Enterprise Planning Specialist Siaosi Fine, FCCM : The request was reviewed by the traffic operations and roadway maintenance offices to identify the issue and potential mitigation. The outside lane of SR 589 between the SR 568 (Dale Mabry) and Van Dyke Road interchanges is designated as a full auxiliary lane. The purpose of the auxiliary lane is to provide an additional lane of capacity for traffic continuing north on SR 589 or exiting at Van Dyke Road. During the PM peak hour, vehicles have been observed using the auxiliary lane and making late lane change maneuvers to bypass the congested traffic continuing northbound. These type of traffic maneuvers are common in congested areas where auxiliary lanes exist. Placing delineators to block the auxiliary lane would not address the congestion issue and would move the weave zone from its current location to further upstream. A Project Development and Environment (PD&E) study (FPID 448068-1) is currently underway to evaluate the widening of SR 589 north of SR 568 (Dale Mabry) to address the congestion issue. Until then, our traffic operations office will reach out to Florida Highway Patrol and alert them of the current conditions. Enforcement and ticketing during peak hours should prevent any unsafe actions. Pending the outcome of additional enforcement, the Enterprise will also consider supplemental signage to increase awareness that the right lane is an exit only. Given your feedback, the Enterprise will begin development of these short-term improvements. Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention.

SAFETY DURING HOLIDAYS

 

by C. Leonard, via Florida Sheriffs Association


Great Prevention Tips from Florida Sheriffs Association (FSA) that may inform you on how to protect yourself against criminals. Article below from FSA.


How to Prevent Identity Theft

When a criminal steals your personal information, they can use it to drain your bank account, damage your credit and wreak havoc on your life. And the worst part is, you might not even know it happened until it’s too late. Thankfully, there are ways to protect yourself and your personal information from the crime of identity theft.


Here’s the rundown on what you can do and what you need to know as a responsible consumer. What is Identity Theft? According to the Federal Trade Commission, identity theft is when someone uses your personal or financial information to make purchases, get benefits, file taxes or commit fraud. Many attacks come in the form of a phone call or email that asks you to provide or confirm personal information. Some even include a fictional threat of danger or arrest if the target does not provide financial information or make a payment. Other attacks are more discreet and occur from online hacking, phishing attacks or stolen mail.


A criminal might use your stolen information to:

• Open a bank account or new credit card in your name.

• Make purchases with your existing credit cards.

• Use your health insurance to receive medical care.


Tragically, criminals often target vulnerable groups, such as older adults. And these attacks can have devastating consequences when a retired target suddenly finds themselves without their life savings. That’s why it’s important to learn about this very real threat and how to avoid being a victim.


The more you know, the more you can share with others who might not have access to the same information. Protecting Yourself from Identity Theft like most crimes, there’s nothing you can do to completely prevent identity theft from happening, but you can make yourself a more difficult target. Here are the basics:


Protecting Yourself from Identity Theft Like most crimes, there’s nothing you can do to completely prevent identity theft from happening, but you can make yourself a more difficult target. Here are the basics.

Protect Your Documents. It’s important to take care with any documents containing personal information, such as financial records, Social Security cards and Medicare cards. When disposing of any of these items, use a shredder. Also, don’t leave mail sitting in the mailbox for longer than necessary.

Don’t Give Out Your SSN. Always take care when giving out your Social Security number, as it can be used to steal your identity. When in doubt, be skeptical of anyone asking for your SSN, and remember that you will never be required to give this information over the phone to a financial institution or credit card company.

Be Smart Online. Always use strong passwords when creating online accounts and use two-factor authentication whenever it is available. Be aware of phishing attacks that can come via email or text message and seek to steal your personal information. Scam emails can look 100% real, so it’s always worth your time to independently check before completing any actions. Do not click on unknown links or attachments, especially if you do not recognize the sender.

The more you know about identity theft, the better you can protect yourself against common attacks. For instance, the police are not going to show up at your door over an IRS dispute – a threat often used to frighten targets in phone-based scams. How do I Know My Identity Has Been Stolen? To minimize damage, it’s important to know how to recognize when you have been the target of an attack. To spot any unusual activity, make the following part of your routine:

  • Routinely review your bank account statements and bills. Are there transactions or withdrawals that you don’t recognize?

  • Keep a sharp eye on your incoming mail. Did you receive any unexpected notices from the IRS for a tax return you didn’t file, or a medical bill for services you did not receive?

  • Take advantage of free credit card reports. Check for accounts you don’t recognize.

Keeping an eye on your finances is the best way to recognize and respond to an attack as soon as it happens. Recovering from Identity Theft If you believe your identity has been stolen, don’t panic. According to the FTC, here’s what you need to do:

  • Contact the fraud department of the companies where the fraud occurred and ask them to freeze your accounts.

  • Change your passwords and PINs for all important accounts.

  • Place a fraud alert on your accounts at IdentityTheft.gov.

  • Get a free credit report and look for any unauthorized transactions.

  • Report the incident to the FTC. This site also provides resources to create a recovery plan.

  • If you are in Florida, you can also go to FraudFreeFlorida.com.

Depending on what information has been compromised (for instance, your driver’s license), you may need to take additional steps. Click here for a full list.


Stay Safe with FSA While the threat of stolen identity is very real, you can stay ahead of the game by monitoring your accounts, using caution when giving out personal information and knowing what to do when an attack does occur. As a reminder, the Florida Sheriffs Association will never ask you to provide personal or financial information over the phone.

Keep Your Pets Safe On Colder Days

by C. Leonard


Fortunately in Florida we do not have to be so concerned about Snow or Ice conditions for our Pets indoor or out. There are some good tips I found that are great reminders on how animals behave and/or need assistance on those "cold" days, especially for our older pets when we do have freeze or cold temps. Herein is some helpful information I've researched for what is recommended by the Vet Associations.


Winter wellness: Has your pet had his/her preventive care exam (wellness exam) yet? Cold weather may worsen some medical conditions such as arthritis. Your pet should be examined by a veterinarian at least once a year, and it's as good a time as any to get him/her checked out to make sure (s)he is ready and as healthy as possible for cold weather.


Know the limits: Just like people, pets' cold tolerance can vary from pet to pet based on their coat, body fat stores, activity level, and health. Be aware of your pet's tolerance for cold weather, and adjust accordingly. You will probably need to shorten your dog's walks in very cold weather to protect you both from weather-associated health risks. Arthritic and elderly pets may have more difficulty walking on snow and ice and may be more prone to slipping and falling. Long-haired or thick-coated dogs tend to be more cold-tolerant, but are still at risk in cold weather. Short-haired pets feel the cold faster because they have less protection, and short-legged pets may become cold faster because their bellies and bodies are more likely to come into contact with snow-covered ground. Pets with diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, or hormonal imbalances (such as Cushing's disease) may have a harder time regulating their body temperature, and may be more susceptible to problems from temperature extremes. The same goes for very young and very old pets. If you need help determining your pet's temperature limits, consult your veterinarian.


Provide choices: Just like you, pets prefer comfortable sleeping places and may change their location based on their need for more or less warmth. Give them some safe options to allow them to vary their sleeping place to adjust to their needs.


Stay inside. Cats and dogs should be kept inside during cold weather. It's a common belief that dogs and cats are more resistant than people to cold weather because of their fur, but it's untrue. Like people, cats and dogs are susceptible to frostbite and hypothermia and generally should be kept inside. Longer-haired and thick-coated dog breeds, such as huskies and other dogs bred for colder climates, are more tolerant of cold weather; but no pet should be left outside for long periods in below-freezing weather.


Make some noise: A warm vehicle engine can be an appealing heat source for outdoor and feral cats, but it can be deadly. Check underneath your car, bang on the hood, and honk the horn before starting the engine to encourage feline hitchhikers to abandon their roost under the hood.


Care and Love your pet(s) and treat them as if they were your own child.

ODESSA HISTORY

 

LITTLE RED SCHOOLHOUSE IN CITRUS PARK

By C. Leonard. (from USF archives : Bailey, Judson (1979) "History of Keystone, Odessa and Citrus Park edited by Henry J. Binder," Tampa Bay History: Vol. 1 : Iss. 2 )


History of Keystone, Odessa and Citrus Park. Edited by Henry J. Binder (Published by Keystone-Odessa-Citrus Park Historical Society, 1979. 62 pp. Photographs, drawings, maps)

History is everything that has happened, small as well as large, and assembling an account of the past in a manner to mesmerize unconcerned readers in the present is a prodigious feat. Happily, Henry J. Binder and his associates of the Keystone-Odessa-Citrus Park Historical Society succeeded in preserving a delicacy with a great deal of ripeness.


Their project was conceived as a phase of the area’s participation in the nation’s Bicentennial and in 1979, achieved public attention in a soft-cover book. At the outset realized that such histories may be written solely for participants and their descendants. Yet the obvious authenticity of research shines through for future historians who may want to build on it at some time in the future—say, the nation's next centennial.


The History of Keystone, Odessa and Citrus Park may be interpreted, then, to be intended primarily for the posterity of people in the area. Mr. Binder, as the editor, surely never expected an outsider to be looking over his labor of love and did not bother to bring it into perspective for a stranger. Bailey: History of Keystone, Odessa and Citrus Park edited by Henry. His technique was to present thirty-nine articles by twenty-eight individuals without interpolation, relying on two deftly stylized cartographs by artist A. John Kaunus to depict the interrelation of the three communities along a 10-mile stretch of State Road 587. This winding thoroughfare is labeled Gunn Highway in deference to a former Hillsborough County commissioner, John T. Gunn, who arranged to get it paved during the Depression of the 1930s. Most roads, circulating like veins through the area, were named for settlers and Mr. Binder fashioned an intriguing chapter on their sources.


The first settler in 1860 appears to have been William L. Mobley, who brought his large family and slaves from North Carolina to found a plantation. The Civil War soon ensued and he gave much of his land to his freed slaves. In a chapter on churches, author Wilma “Billy” Bonar recalls Mobley’s hospitable home on Lake Keystone and identifies him as the founder in 1868 of a Methodist chuch, the first place of worship. It was constructed of logs with space in back for his former slaves to join in the services. This church burned and was replaced by one made of hewn boards before Mobley was killed by a runaway horse. The family is memorialized by two roads, North Mobley Road and South Mobley Road.


Keystone was first to get a post office, but the postmaster there tipped off federal authorities to growth in Odessa, a mile north of the Hillsborough-Pasco county line and one was established there in 1900. Thus Odessa, a flagstop on the Atlantic Coast Line Rail Road, subsequently became postal headquarters for the entire two-county area, now serving about 6,000+ patrons. The present (in 1979 of this article) Odessa postmaster, Charles R. Wilson, was born there in 1925 and is a principal contributor to this historical account.


Lumber interests discovered the region at the turn of the century and built a network of railroads with tendrils reaching from Tampa to Tarpon Springs. Two huge saw mills were erected, employing hundreds of workers from Florida and other states. The economy soared. One of the mills had the only telephone in the area and executives had the first three automobiles there. But it was not an unmixed blessing. There were knife fights almost every night and in one two-year, span eight men were slain. Finally the lumbermen cut and sawed their way out of existence and some tranquility was restored.


Agriculture with citrus and cattle as principal commodities became prevalent, scarcely fazed by a land boom in 1911-12. The North Tampa Land Company of Chicago advertised in the Saturday Evening Post and other publications the great lure of Florida living, offering land at $25 an acre with a building lot free.


Four wars, a depression and various recessions later the population has stabilized and several of the contributors to this history pridefully identified their “Cracker” ancestry. The families now there have found a satisfying way of life and endeavored to preserve traditions and landmarks, notable among them a revered, “Little Red School House” at Citrus Park. Author Cleo Bissonnette believes it is the oldest standing school in the county and possibly in the entire state. Among the chapters on Indian massacres, railroads, post offices, saw mills, stores, organizations and memories of people is a tender “Black History” by Lille Mae Mix Madison. If life was rugged over a spread of eight decades for the whites, it was rougher for the blacks. Mrs. Madison closed with an eloquent epilogue for this whole gentle inspection of local history. She wrote: “One of these days our children’s own children will laugh and say, ‘This is unbelievable, those must have been some hard days."


To every person who will read this book, remember: Let brotherly love continue to abide among all mankind; regardless of race, creed or color; whether rich or poor, young or old, it is our responsibility to love one another. Most of all, keep this in mind: ‘There is but one race, and that race is the human race’. Judson Bailey
