At the May 2, 2000 Board of County Commissioners meeting, the Board authorized the <br />Indian River County Chamber of Commerce to solicit proposals for the Tourism Study. The <br />reason for the decision was that Indian River County had solicited proposals and the lowest bid <br />was $89,000, and Indian River County had budgeted only $50,000. It was felt that proposals <br />sent out from a private sector (such as the Chamber) might produce more aggressive bids. <br />The Chamber has reached an agreement to have the University of Florida do the tourism <br />study for $58,841. Staff feels we may want to allow approval of a 10% contingency of $5,900, <br />to be authorized by the Assistant County Administrator, in case additions need to be made. They <br />then can be facilitated expediently. <br />Recommendation <br />Staff recommends the Board of County Commissioners authorize the Chamber of <br />Commerce to enter into a contract with University of Florida in the amount of $58,841, plus a <br />$5,900 contingency, for a tourism study, to be reimbursed from Tourist Development funds. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Tippin, SECONDED BY <br />Commissioner Stanbridge, the Board unanimously (4-0, Vice <br />Chairman Ginn absent) authorized the Chamber of Commerce <br />to enter into a contract for a tourism study with University of <br />Florida in the amount of $58,841, plus a $5,900 contingency, to <br />be reimbursed from Tourist Development funds, as <br />recommended in the Memorandum. <br />7.R.
