BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:

 

Earlier this year the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) designated Commissioner Smith to act as the lead representative for the Commission as it relates to the 100th Anniversary of Martin County. Staff has met with Commissioner Smith, constitutional officers, not for profit entities, members of the public, and the Historic Preservation Board. These meetings have generated a copious number of ideas in which Martin County could celebrate the 100th anniversary. Staff is providing a basic line-item cost estimate for the potential ways in which the anniversary may be celebrated.

 

 

 

ISSUES:

 

Staff is requesting that the Board of County Commissioners to set a budget and then to authorize a budget transfer from reserves to fund the various items in which the Board of County Commissioners would like to proceed with.
