F. Budget Amendment 082 - Tourist Tax The Board reviewed the following memo dated 6/12/89: TO: Members of the Board of County Commissioners DATE: June 12, 1989 SUBJECT: BUDGET AMENDMENT 082 - TOURIST TAX CONSENT AGENDA FROM: Joseph A. Baird OMB Director DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS In order to initially implement the Tourist Tax, a two year budget had to be developed outlining the proposed uses of this new source of revenue. This budget, which began April 1, 1987 and ended March 31, 1989, does not conincide with the county's fiscal year (October 1 to September 30). The Tourist Tax Committee did not wish to develop a budget for the last six months of fiscal 1989 until they had had an opportunity to evaluate the original two year budget. In their meeting of May 17, 1989, the committee proposed the following budget for the period April 1 - September 30, 1989. DISTRICT I City of Vero Beach Emergency Dune and Park Restoration South Beach Lifeguard Tower _ Re -deck Boardwalk at South Beach Beach Park Maintenance Arts Council Fourth of July Extravaganza Operating Expense Chamber of Commerce Operating Expense DISTRICT II $75,000 15,000 10,000 $55,500 $1551500 $ 5,000 7.500 $ 12,500 $ 7,500 $ 7.500 $175,500 There were no recommendations because District II's revenues had not met expectations. The committee decided to let the money accumulate, for use in the 1989/90 fiscal year budget. On May 22, 1989 the Board of County Commissioners approved the Tourist Tax committee report as outlined above. REION Staff recommends that the Board of County Tourist Tax committee's proposed uses of the last six months of the 1988/89 fiscal year, amendment appropriating these monies.
