He said that while the Board may approve that budget, it would not commit the Board to any expendituro of tho.e funds until the Stðte comes forth with it. share of the matching funds, whIch ho 80id he dið not fool would take place in the current year. Mr. ßerzon soid that the other budget that has a chonge 1. the MSTD for tho south half of Sower Area wO-, otherwiso known as East Naples, whIch is the one on which the Board approved the design for the engineering plans for the sower system and that, currently, the County Is in the procesa of paying back tho third installment of that loan, adding that when that is done, lInleds thoro is some residual costs that carryover from the interest chargea, that ahould toke care of that item. He atated that is an MSTD and does not affect tho County budget but is an item that appears on tho tax bill. Chairman WImer said that item affects the County budget this year becauso it 18 goes into the calculated inter.~t of the County, to "hlch Mr. Berzon agreed. Responding to Chairman Wim~r, Mr. flerzon said that everything ia complete for Sewer Area w8- and ·that the only thing that would be required, if construction were to commence, is to make Bure the permitting is up-to-date and t~at there might be an expenditure of $10,000 to $12,000 for that.

Mr. Berzon etated that the other items ore all within the Utility Enterprise Account Fund. Mr. Hall said that a diroct impact on the Con.rel or Oporating Fund would occur if th~ County were not lovying ~-~ ...,- '.. the 1/2 million dollar tax in Sewer ServIce Aroa -ß·. He stated that la6t year the County levied $219,000 ^nd ~r. Oerzon said that, in this year's budget, the item shows up as double that amount because the County is only paying off one-half of the entire loan. ~r. Hall said th~t thore i8 nothing that can be done about that because the County was alreody Into that matter. RespondIng to Commissioner plator's question regarding General Revenuos of $14,645.00 for Everglades City, Mr. Bcrzon saId that h. was in error and that $14,000 is the correct figure and that ~ncludes administrative charge. as wolle Ho rccommen~~d that tho Board retain that item in tho budget, and that if tho COMmiGsioners wðnt to reduce it to some nominal amount so that It is available a~ a budgot item, that revision could be modo ðnd that if the State comes through wIth any funding, if the Board 60 desIres to make an ~ppropriðte contribution it would be in the budqet. Comminsioner PIstor asked if that figure is for moro than Evorglndes City, and Mr. Borzon responded that it covcro ðn area of about tw~nty-fiv~ square mIlos.

Chairman Wililcr askod why the buðget is not changod to reflect that? Mr. Borzon explained said th~t the item iB carried under the 201 identification in the event that, at 6~me futuro time, tho County applies for Fedoral funds, there would be a need to identify the itom that wðy. He explainod that when the area was atudied, the recommended effluent ðisposal, at that time, wae doep well injection and that the County is not pursuing that now. Mr. Borzon stated thnt he expectB to receive ð finalized estimate this week and, if it appalH5 thllt the County has all the funds, howill return with the recommendation that the County go with th& plant expan3ion and that the expansion, as well as the percolation ponds, will take care of all the effluent other than spr~y irrigation latèr, if the decision is made to utilize that procedure. Commissioner' pistor said that, in his opinion, if the Everglades area needs a ~cwer system, the persons in that area sr.ould pay tor it, and that should happen without ð Btudy, to which ~r. Berzon said that is the Board's discretion and that tho BCC was not obligated in the very beginning to even commit itself to fund that. However, the Board chose that direction and has taken that course during the past tour years. no sðid that it the Board chooses to drop it and tell Everglades City that -they are on their own- it they want a 201 study Page .. . -. -------- --.------- ------ - -- - - ---- ,---------' .......~.,~_..,._-..-..

Commissioner Wonzel .aid that If that area wants to be a municipality, they should aupport thoms.lve.. Commissioner Kruse asked Mr. Berzon what the total budget figure is for tho Utility Division, and he responded that It depends upon whother the total capItal and operating are combIned, adding that tho capital i. over SO million dollars and that tho operating is in the range of 3-1/2 to 4 million dollars.

He said that would give les8 than $~OO,OOO.OO a year, however, if that action could be taken this year and next year, ~here would be almost $400,000.00 more cash carryover this year and the sa~. amount next year. Responding to CommisGioner Wenzel, Mr. Hall aaid that tho County would not be borrowing one million dollars because it already would have boen borrowed as a part of the 5 million dollar8 receiv~d in 1978. A discussion followed regarding this subject during , which County ~~n~gcr Norman snld that the 1977 Bond Is~ue money interest rate i8 7' versus 12'. A!ter Chairman Wimer requestcd clarification, Mr. Hall said that there are approximately one million dollars worth of capital projects currently planned by the County tor the 1977 Bond Issue and that his . suggestion was not to spend that money and tako that amount of money and put it into that Bond Issue's debt service and then it would not be necessary to use the State Revonuo Sharing for the debt aervice and that money would atay in the Ceneral Fund to be used to fund the operations, with Commissioner Wonzel adding that is thG item with the 7' interest rate. Responding to Commissioner ristor, ~r. Hall said that the money is ~ne million dollars of the unspent portion of tho five million dollars, and that Account 302 represents tho five million dollara. Mr. Hall continued to explðin that this approach would leave tho 1.4 million dollars reserve in tact to the place that the reserve would then be available, at thi8 point in time, next year. He pointed out that in each approach where o~e-tlme money tor a capital project S. takon and used to fund operating expenses, it 18 ð on. year fix and the Page tS . r"~iJ ~ '.. , 't r. 1 ~ ï .: --- -------- - ---- -- ----- -;¡úlÿ- 21-;- ï9if},- _________2 -_.."...;,.~,,;,,_.~.- "'''-'; ~..,. ., following year the sa..,o .1mount of ono-t i..,o money mUGt hI! found. ITB oald that n~xt ye~r toxes CAn be incrcðs~d 15. ~nd th~t this yoar thera can be no increaso. Mr. Norman s~id that ho felt ovoryone sharos th~ concorn that if the County buys its way out of a problem this coming year, what would the County do tho following year. He suggested that one poaslbility would be to use tho annual debt sorvico for next yoar's budgot and preserve the debt service the following ycnr, which would ensuro that there would be enough money loft to pay tho debt sorvice as that monoy would accumulate interest and be aval1~h16 for all future dobt service until it waR used. Commisøioner Kruse said that would free only 1/2 11\ 11 110n dollðrs ond not one million dollars, and Mr. Norman pointed out that if $400,000 is spent this year and $400,000 the ycar after, a highor rate of interest would bc earned. Co..,misRioner Xruse added this would mean tho County would be onn million short for this budget year. *****Commissionor Brown entered the meeting at 9130 A.M.***** Chairman Wimer asked the CommiGsioners if they wanted to ask Mr. Hall and Mr. Norman to begin exploring the ðforcmention~d process and Mr. Hall explained thðt tho procoss in in the same roalm of borrowing for long torm payment to meot current operating needs. ~r.

He said that would just reduce the dobt service by about $IOO,OOO, adding that if the Sl.2 million 18 appliod to debt service that vould wfree-up· the State Revenue Sharing to be uaed for operating purposes. Tape '2 \ ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ A discussion continued during which Chairman Wimer clarified that S400,000 would be picked up throe times, once thia year, once during next budget year and onc~ after that, and that SROO,OOO would be wpicked up· for this next year. ~r. Hall said that two payments are made a year and that this yaar the payment is $263,276 and an Inter.at payment in the middle of the year of just over $100,000 and, therefore, the total figure Is approxlmatoly $370,000, but only $263,276 can be , 1 obtained this yaar. Rosponding to Commissioner Pi.tor, Mr. Hall said' that the payments have been coming from State Revenue Sharing.

IInll explained that of the $147,890.00, Sll0,000 ia the Pino Ridge Industrinl Park MSTD and Chairman Wi~er asked ~r~ Nor~an to investigate how far along that process is, as he undorstando the contract has been awarded to the engineers to do preliminary work on that item. Mr. Hall recommended that the Board give administrative direct~on on those kinds of items that normally would be done bocausc funds aro ðvnilablo through tho Ceneral Fund, adding that, in tho future, he roels it would be best if no contracts are nwarded until th~ ~oney in in hand. Chairman Wimer ~aid that he thought that direction was given last week. ~r. Norman said hè ~uld find out how much ~oney ia involved in tho PIne Ridgo Industrial Park MSTD. Mr. Hall said that other nrc~s that should be considercd by the Board are operating expenses in the MST's for tho unincorporated area. A discussion followed during which he ðskod the Co~missionors to consider if they want to cut back on the ~ðintenðnco of residential streets in the unincorporatod arra which are funded though nd valorem taxes. He explained that in Fund 175, the unincorporated arca goneral, the County 18 levying $272,000.00 in taxos becausc the County has used all o~ the carry forward and rescrve from that fund and Is depending upon the Ccneral Fund to handle that until Octobor 1, which reduced the taxes by 85' from last year's 1.8 million dollars. no said that, regarding the Unincorporated MST for roads, the taxes last year Wftrft $2.4 million and that this year, since sales tax monoy was put into that itom, $65A,OOO.OO ia propocd to be levied, ð reduction of $].7 Page 9 aOOK 069 PAC~ 707 ---:-------;--- -,----:-,------_._,-", --- ---- .- --.~ -.- -- --.-;--- - -:-- -- ---- --- -.

Chairman Wimer said that he te.ls that road. are the last thing that should bft cut, adding they are a necesaity. Commissioner Pistor agreed, noting that if the money is cut and the roads deteriorate, the final coat would be twice as much. Chairman Wimer said he would defer building new roads, but that maintaining and paving oxisting roadwðYs should be not be cut. Mr. Hall doscribed other areas where, it expenditures were reduced taxes could be reduced, thereby adding to the base on which the Canersl Fund toxes could bo raised such as the Colden Gata and Ochopee Fire Departments. He ßð1d that thoee items would not constitute a large sum of money. following a brief discuasion, the general conaensus of the Board was not to cut those tire department budgets. Mr. Hall said that the way the State formula is designed, if taxes are lowered In any .pe~ta~ taxing district, that adds to the base of the formula over the Ceneral Fund where taxos can be raised in that fund, adding that the money is kept scparate. Following discusston, ~r., Hall stllted that 1.4 mllllon dollars 18 the minimum amount needed in reserve and that ~verything above that amount can be used in the operating budget, if the ~oard desires. Responding to Commissioner pistor, Mr. Hall stated that $750,000.00 is in Contingency this year. Commissioner Wenzel moved, seconded by Commissioner Kruse and carried unanimously, that 1.9 million dollar. be left In the Contingency Fund and that the cash carryover amount of $835,000.00 be moved to the Cenoral Fund, with half that amount added to Contingency and halt available for operations.

CommIssioner W~nzol asked if the ltemregarding MSTD Road Con- struction 1 through 5 r~ferred to new roads or maintenance, and Mr. ~rman said that was for resurfacing, adding it is heavy reconstruction which is basically capital improvements. Commissioner pist~r said if all the new districts, except Pine Ridge, are removed, the other lighting districts only amount to a little over $30,000, to which Mr. Hall .aid that romoving that amount would mean that there would be $37,000 which would not have to bo roduced in the county-wide funds. Commissionor pistor said that people have talked with him about the lighting districts and that they have wanted them for a long time, to which Chairman Wimer agreed.
