Chairwoman Brosche called the meeting to order and asked the
attendees to introduce themselves. She reviewed the Auditor’s marked agenda
which included 7 items marked for deferral, 22 items ready for action (2 as emergencies,
2 for withdrawal) and 11 items for second reading and re-referral.
2016-441 (appropriating $125,000 from Cash Carryover within
the Soutel/Moncrief CRA fund for a CRA plan update):
will be taken up after action on 2016-601 (amending the Soutel/Moncrief,
JIA CRA, Northbank Combined and Southside CRA
budgets.
2016-453 (appropriating $3.48 million from Foreclosed
Property Registry revenue for eligible uses): the administration requests
deferral for further research; Kalina Shirley will
give an overview before deferral.
2016-505 (adopting 2017-21 CIP): Peggy Sidman noted that the
CIP bill and the budget run in tandem and need to match; if a budget amendment
is made next Tuesday that affects the CIP, then this
bill will need to be amended as well to match. She requested the committee to
authorize the General Counsel’s office to “true up” the bills as necessary.
2016-489 (amending Special Events code regarding support for
council district events): the bill was deferred in Rules Committee and won’t be
on the Council agenda next week unless it’s discharged from that committee.
Council Member Schellenberg will provide information to the
committee discussed at recent meetings of the Florida Association of Counties
on proposed changes to the state’s marijuana laws.
Council Member Bowman asked that 2016-571 (appropriating
$200,000 to the Chamber of Commerce for city marketing contract) be moved to
the top of the agenda so a Chamber representative can address the bill.
