The Tourist Development Council was presented with proposed criteria for the tourist study as developed by Sonny Dean of the. General Services Department, and as developed by Regional Resource Associates, a consultant proposed to be utilized by Save Our Shores, the applicant for the tourist tax revenues. The Tourist Development Council felt that the criteria put forth in both proposals was generally similar and directed me to meld the two proposals into one scope of services, with any input provided by the Chamber of Commerce. I have revised the scope of services to a form which I believe is acceptable to either the County staff or Save Our Shores. The Tourist Development Council also recommended by a 5 -to -3 vote that Save Our Shores be allowed to contract directly for the tourist study so long as it included all the criteria required by the Tourist Development Council and the Board of County Commissioners.
