AGENDA ITEM WORDING:
Approval by the Monroe County Board of Commissioners to request our State Representative to
introduce emergency legislation at the September 18, 2007 legislature special session, to allow
Monroe County, if approved by the voters, to add an additional one penny to Monroe County
sales tax specifically for wastewater and stormwater infrastructure implementation cost.
ITEM BACKGROUND:
Based upon the 2010 unfunded mandate by the legislature to achieve a high degree of wastewater
treatment and stormwater retention, it would only seem fair for the legislators to allow us to request
from the voters to establish a revenue stream to pay for the implementation.
