He stressed that we must ensure that the County's interests <br />are represented. <br />LEGISLATIVE INTENT AND RULE MAKING <br />Commissioner Macht announced that a bill has been introduced <br />that deals with agencies that exceed legislative authority and <br />intent in rule making. He stated that he was expecting a Fax <br />summarizing that bill, and that he would distribute copies to the <br />other Commissioners. He stressed that the Board should stay very <br />close to that issue. In that regard, Commissioner Macht reported <br />that Legislative Day is March 16, 1994, in Tallahassee, and he felt <br />that the Board should send at least one Commissioner to represent <br />the interests of the County on that issue and other issues that <br />concern us. <br />Chairman Tippin stated that he would like to go, but he has <br />some scheduling conflicts on his calendar. He asked if the Board <br />could discuss this again at next week's meeting. <br />Commissioner Eggert clarified that this is the Florida <br />Association of Counties (FACo) Legislative Day. She suggested <br />authorizing out -of -county travel for one or more Commissioners and <br />whatever staff the County Administrator deems appropriate to avoid <br />the necessity of having to bring it back to the Board at the last <br />minute. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Macht, the Board unanimously (4-0, <br />Commissioner Bird being absent) approved out -of - <br />county travel for one or more Commissioners, plus <br />whatever staff the County Administrator deems <br />appropriate, to attend Legislative Day on March 16, <br />1994, in Tallahassee. <br />35 <br />�9� aoc�c 1 �a �� 7� <br />
