Support Services

53. 2010 Census/Board Member Redistricting and Impact Fees

Minutes: 

Mike Elliott, Asst. Supt. for Support Services, advised the Board that with the completion of the 2010 Census, Florida Law requires redistricting of the board member districts to balance the county's population among the 5 members.  Staff will process this effort similar to the way they would with school redistricting, unless directed otherwise.   Mr. Farrell requested and received consensus of the Board to proceed with redistricting. 

Florida Statute states that impact fees must be developed on the basis of current data available and it must be fair, justifiable and defensible.  The last time the impact fees were lowered, they were below the maximum that the study identified.  Approval from the Board was sought to move forward with a new study, with an estimated cost of $6,000-$8,000. Mr. Elliott's staff will bring back to Board an appropriate date, a new study, and will move forward on resolution with the county.  

 

54. Speakers

Minutes: Kelly Griffis, President of CESPA - Contract; Rebecca Smith - Contract; Stacey Coffey - Contract; Karen O'Keefe - Contract and Liz Crane, President CCEA - Spoke on behalf of teachers.

55. Comments

56. Comments

Minutes: 

All Board members expressed their appreciation for the teachers of Clay County with the hope that they understand the tough decisions the Board has to make.
