RE: SWFRPC's FY2015 Work Plan & Budget
Dear Sir or Madam:
At its August 14, 2014 meeting, the Southwest Florida Regional Planning Council (Council) adopted its
FY2015 Work Plan and Budget, in accordance with the Council's Rule 291-1.007 Budget and Finances:
The Council shall cause to be prepared and shall adopt on or before August 15 of each
year a budget for the development and implementation of the planning and
development programs by such means and through such agencies as the Council shall
determine and shall certify a copy thereof to the Clerk of the governing body of each
local government that is a member.
Upon approval thereof by the governing body each member local government shall
include in its annual budget and cause the levy of a millage sufficient to produce the
amount necessary to fund its proportionate share of the Council's total budget for the
District, which, beyond minimums for individual membership established by the Council,
bears the same ratio to the total budget as the population of each member unit bears to
the total population of the District, all as determined annually by official population
forecasts by the state of Florida for the year preceding each budget determination.
Enclosed is a certified copy of the Council's FY2015 Work Plan and Budget for your records. Please feel
free to contact me if I can be of further assistance.
incerely,

MESSAGE
Over the last three years, the journey of the Southwest
Florida Regional Planning Council has been tumultuous
but progressively improving. We have transitioned pro-
grams to align with the needs of our communities while
stabilizing operations. Our recovery can be evidenced by
a positive fund balance at the end of each year and an
increasing reserve balance. It is now time to build on this
successful foundation and branch out with nontraditional
programs that will support and enhance the public assets
that sustain our communities. 4 #
Fiscal Year 2014-2015 will focus on Building Resiliency. Re-
siliency is the ability to anticipate risk, limit impact, and
bounce back rapidly in the face of turbulent change. Re-
silient communities are the foundation of the Southwest
Florida region. Whether our communities need to recover
from a major storm event,withstand the loss of a business,
or deal with crime and safety issues,we will work with our
22 local governments to ensure that they can respond to
and recover quickly from whatever unique challenges,dis-
ruptive crisis or vulnerability that may arise.The SWFRPC
can provide expert resources for emergency manage-
ment,evacuation planning and studies,hazardous materi-
als training, sea level rise, climate change, economic de-
velopment issues, and geographic information, as well as
general technical assistance.Working with our stakehold-
ers,committees,elected officials and national experts,the
SWFRPC will focus on providing programs and reliable in-
