Chairman Scurlock advised that the millage reflected on.the TRIM Notice for General Purpose Municipal Service Taxing Unit (MSTU) was 2.1000 and this has since been reduced to 2.0702. Our proposed millage is less than the rolled back millage. The 3 proposed M.S.T.0 budget is $10,114,849, and the current year's budget is $9,666,199. There is no increase over rollback. The Chairman asked if anyone wished to be heard in regard to the General Purpose Municipal Service Taxing Unit. There were none. The Chairman then addressed the Vero Lake Estates M.S.T.U., advising that it is assessed on a per parcel basis and is the same charge as last year or $15.00 per parcel/acre. Rollback does not apply per parcel/acre. The proposed budget is $108,700, and the current year's budget is $107,665, which is a $1,035 increase. The Chairman felt there may be some discussion on this in that the Vero Lake Estates Advisory Committee at one point was in favor of this charge being raised to $100 per-parcel/acre, but since there is one large land owner who owns most of the parcels, there was some opposition. The Chairman asked if anyone wished to be heard in regard to the Vero Lake Estates M.S.T.U. There were none. Chairman Scurlock next addressed the various Fire Districts and advised that the millage reflected on the TRIM Notice for the North County Fire District is 1.000, and our proposed millage is 1.000, which is a 1.6% increase over the rollback millage. The proposed budget is $611,548, and the current year's budget is $503,390, which is a $113,158 increase. The reasons for the increase are an additional employee - a Fire Inspector, increased liability insurance costs, and building of -reserves to purchase fire equipment - pumper trucks, etc. 12 BOOK 7 4 Fn,�E 119
