League of Women Voters of Florida NAACP Florida Virgil Hawkins Florida Chapter of the National Bar Association FAC was represented at the meeting by Scott Shalley and Ginger Delegal (FAC Staff) and Immediate Past President Grover Robinson (Escambia) and Past President Welton Cadwell (Lake). In addition, the Collins Institute hosted a follow up meeting in Tallahassee on November 10. Ginger Delegal attended that meeting. Attached to this agenda item is the initial Citizens' Guide to the Florida CRC that has been developed by the Collins Institute partnership (Attachment 1). You can also link to this resource by clicking here. The next step is for the Association to develop and approve a workplan for its involvement with the 2017-18 CRC. FAC staff is proposing the attached Workplan for these efforts (Attachment 2). Fiscal Impact: None yet. However, depending on the level of involvement with which FAC chooses to engage the 2017-18 CRC, the fiscal impact to the Association will vary. Board and/or Executive Committee approval, as appropriate will be sought when any impact is anticipated to exceed that beyond FAC's normal course of business. By way of example but not limitation, if contract lobbyists are sought to represent FAC solely before the CRC, additional resources would be required to be allocated and approval sought; if a statewide educational effort is to be implemented on any proposals resulting from the CRC's work, additional resources would be required to be allocated and approval sought. Options: (1) Approve the draft FAC Constitutional Revision Workplan. (2) Provide other direction to FAC staff. Recommended Action: Option (1).
