BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:
The Value Adjustment Board was created pursuant to Florida Statute 194.015. The Board consists of two members of the governing body of the county as elected from the membership of the board of said governing body, one of whom shall be elected chairperson, and one member of the school board as elected from the membership of the school board, and two citizen members - one of whom shall be appointed by the governing body of the county and must own homestead property within the county and one of whom must be appointed by the school board and must own a business occupying commercial space located within the school district. A citizen member may not be a member or an employee of any taxing authority and may not be a person who represents property owners in any administrative or judicial review of property taxes.
The Administration Staff advised Diane Castellucci that her term has expired with the ending of the 2021 Value Adjustment Board functions. Mrs. Castellucci was provided an application to complete and return if he wished to be re-considered for the position.
An Information Release soliciting applicants was emailed via Constant Contact to the Outreach Martin and Local Media email lists which includes local Chambers of Commerce, local businesses, local media, and citizens (nearly 2,300 recipients). The Information Release was also posted to the County’s web page under News.
The Board is asked to appoint one individual to the Value Adjustment Board for a term to begin immediately and end when the 2022 Value Adjustment Board completes their functions.
The Administration Staff will advise the applicants of the Commission’s decision which include Sunshine Law information to the appointed individual. A Chair letter and framed Certificate of Appreciation will be mailed to Mrs. Castellucci if she is not reappointed. The Chairman will sign the letter and certificate.
