This is good news, but one little thing in the headline could have made a quick difference in understanding. Making it "DOT's challenge" shows that the court ruled against them, not the challenge the city made *to* the DOT order that started it all, which is how I first read it. Lots of folks don't read beyond the headline.
Hooray for home rule, freedom and Ft. Lauderdale. Boo to Dee Dee, weak Key West commissioners and prejudice

Just wait until we will have to beg for funding when Tallahassee strips taxing power away from cities and counties.
