r <br />COUNTY NAME OR "SUNSHINE STATE" ON LICENSE PLATES <br />The Board reviewed the following letter and proposed ordinance <br />from Fla. Dept. of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles: <br />April 26, 1994 <br />TO: All Florida Tax Collectors <br />FROM: Charles J. Brantley, Director O <br />Division of Motor Vehicles <br />SUBJECT: County Name or "Sunshine State" on License Plates <br />An opportunity is being given to the commission of each county to <br />determine whether the county name will remain on the license plate or be replaced with <br />the logo "Sunshine State." Our legal staff has drafted a generic ordinance which can be <br />used by all counties to record the vote of the respective commissions. <br />As both the agent for the department and an affected party, will you please <br />handle this matter with your commission and return to me a copy of the executed <br />ordinance. It would be helpful if we could get this completed by September 1, 1994. <br />Thank you for your assistance. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Macht, the Board unanimously <br />approved retaining Indian River County on <br />license plates. <br />RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING A COMMUNITY CHILD CARE RESOURCES TRUST FUND <br />Commissioner Macht explained that this proposed resolution <br />will enable the County to receive and hold in trust funds from the <br />Community Child Care Resources, which was tentatively approved in <br />the joint meeting with the School Board on May 3, 1994. <br />Commissioner Adams asked if this is something that should be <br />established by the School Board, but Commissioner Macht explained <br />that ultimately the aim is to obtain a 501(c)3 (certain non-profit <br />status under Internal Revenue Code) and to hold the funds in trust <br />for that organization. In the meantime, funds are becoming <br />available and a mechanism is necessary to hold them in trust. The <br />plan itself has been distributed to the Commissioners and will be <br />on next week's agenda. <br />Commissioner Adams asked if "shall" would be a better word <br />than "may" with regard to the line item. <br />Attorney O'Brien explained the idea is that there would be a <br />line item to consider each budget year as to whether you wanted to <br />put any money in this trust .fund. Right now, it is a tax <br />deductible contribution under Section 170 of the Internal Revenue <br />Code. <br />J U 7 1994 3 7 8.09 92 aa 502 <br />
