Past -policy of the <br />Commission indicates that the County has not participated in <br />activities of this type. Past Commissions have taken the approach <br />that funding of this nature for public relations type activities <br />would be given consideration during the budget process. Monies <br />were not set aside in the fiscal year 81-82 budget. <br />ALTER14ATIVES AND ANALYSIS <br />1. Alternative 1 would be to deny this request and provide funding <br />for requests of this type in the 82-83 ,fiscal year budget so <br />that in the future funds could be utilized on a limited basis <br />for a public relations type activities. <br />2. Alternative 2 would be to approve of the request and transfer <br />funds from the Board of County Commissioners Contingency Account <br />number 001-99.91 to an appropriate line item in the budget that <br />would be consistant with the State Chart of Accounts for expend- <br />itures of this type. The present balance in this fund is <br />$332,880.00. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING <br />It is recommended that the Commission not grant this request. This <br />is consistant with past Board policy. It is further recommended that <br />consideration be given to establishing public relations activities <br />monies for the fiscal year 1982-83 budget. <br />Motion was made by Commissioner Fletcher, seconded by <br />Commissioner Lyons, that the Board accept the recommendation <br />of the County Administrator for Alternative 1 to deny the <br />Jaycee's request for County participation. <br />APR 14 188 2 7 BOOK FA X61 <br />
