Services for design and construction of the Marathon
Regional Service Center and to provide for any and all other
appropriate financial documents as may be required.

until yesterday, neither the contract between the Board of
County Commissioners and the Department of General Services
nor the tri-party agreement between Monroe County, the

on their way back to the County. Motion was made by

thereof, to the Department of General Services, State of
Florida, when requested by the County Administrator; pro-
viding for severability; providing for repeal of all
Ordinances inconsistent herewith; and providing an effective
date. Roll call vote was unanimous. Motion was made by
