The Chairman called the meeting to order at 9:34 a.m. and reviewed the Council Auditor’s marked agenda which showed 8 items marked for deferral, 15 items ready for action (1 for withdrawal) and 7 items for second reading and re-referral.

 

2013-294 (extending special counsel contract with Finger and Nelson, PLLC): Council Member Boyer asked for a report on how much of the first $50,000 appropriation has been expended to date.

 

2013-354 (appropriating $1.826 million in CDBG program revenues to various projects): the bill is a duplicate of another pending ordinance and will be moved for withdrawal.

 

2013-303 (authorizing execution of interlocal agreement with JEA for P25 radio system): the bill was not referred to Finance at the time of introduction but has been added since it has fiscal implications.

 

Michelle Barth of the Mayor’s Office requested that Dave Roman be permitted to make a brief presentation on a potential grant that may be requested for emergency action at next Tuesday’s council meeting.

 

In response to a question from Council Member Anderson, Janice Billy reported that the Council has received a partial report from the administration on the CIP project list, but it is not the full report the Finance Committee requested several meetings ago.  Glenn Hansen and Ronnie Belton will be requested to appear at the meeting to address the issue.

 

Chairman Crescimbeni announced that at the end of the meeting there will be a presentation on streetlight replacement.  Lin White of the Public Works Department reported that Wayne Young of JEA and Public Works Director Jim Robinson will be present to discuss.

 

There being no further business, the agenda meeting was adjourned at 9:44 a.m.
