At the October 19, 2011 BOCC meeting the Board discussed a resolution
regarding the use and distribution of BIF. The Board deleted sections of the resolution pertaining to
the distribution and allocation of BIF to the various municipalities, and passed the revised resolution
which pertains to the general use of BIF and funding request procedures. Subsequently the BOCC
directed staff to draft an amendment to Resolution No. 371-2011 which would make reimbursement
for the maintenance of revenue producing municipal infrastructure, such as mooring fields, an
ineligible use of BIF. Attached are F.S. 328.72 (State BIF) and F.S. 328.66 (County BIF) which
describe the eligible uses of each fund. Staff recommends this item to be continued to the December
14, 2011 BOCC meeting.
