White, Executive Aide <br />DATE: September 28, 1994 <br />SUBJECT: Payment of Membership Dues for NACO and Florida -Shore <br />and Beach Preservation Association <br />Because of the budget constraints the County faces this next <br />budget year, it has been suggested that we not pay membership <br />dues FY 1994-95 for NACo or Florida Shore and Beach Preservation <br />Association (FS&BPA.) It is felt that we do not get our money's <br />worth from either of these organizations. <br />I respectfully request direction from the Board of County <br />Commissioners in this matter. <br />The Board discussed pros and cons of continued membership in <br />both organizations. Consensus was reached to continue paying both <br />and reevaluate the membership payments next year. <br />43 <br />October 11, 1994 ROOK PAGE 509 <br />
