DISCUSSION WITH COUNTY COMMISSIONER BURT SAUNDERS:
Commissioner Saunders discussed the Department of Equal
Opportunity proposal with the Black Affairs Advisory Board.
Commissioner Saunders suggested that the cost and scope of the
proposal be reduced to be sensitive to budget and economic
concerns. He encouraged the BMB to continue getting community
support for the proposal from organizations such as the Naples
Chamber of Commerce, Economic Development Council and Naples Daily
News. Commissioner Saunders stated he would contact the City of
Naples to determine their interest in sharing the costs associated
with the proposal. He also suggested scheduling a workshop with
the Board of County Commissioners in approximately ninety (90)
days to review the Department of Equal Opportunity proposal.
NEXT MEETING: The members of the Black Affairs
Board decided to schedule a joint meeting with the
Affairs Advisory Board in December, 1992 to review
proposal. The three (3) newly elected commissioners
