DISCLAIMER |

This booklet has been prepared for the
convenience of the Board of County Commissioners in discussing
matters before them. Every effort has been made to include all items
to be discussed at this Board of County Commissioners meeting,
however, Commissioners may add items, which are not a part of this
Agenda, or items may be removed from consideration. While it has
been the goal to present error-free information, we do not represent
that documentation is without errors or omissions.
In addition to regular Board meetings, the Board of County
Commissioners may, from time to time, schedule a workshop during
which they will receive information from staff, have discussions
with staff and among themselves, and then proceed to give staff
direction on the subject matter being discussed unless otherwise
shown on the Agenda item. These discussions and workshops do not
take the place of the formal public hearing process during which any
member of the public may comment and formal action is taken.
The Board and staff welcome written comments prior to workshops and
other meetings. If you have comments or questions regarding the
subject matter of any Board action or workshop, please deliver your
written comments to appropriate County staff or mail to the Board of
County Commissioners, Post Office Box 7800, Tavares, FL 32778. |

Budget transfer - General Fund,
Department of Public Works, Public Lands Section.
Transfer $2,500,000 from Land (Project 10001) to Aids to
Government Agencies. County Finance requested that
this transfer be processed. A purchase order was
prepared and a check was issued to the City of Clermont for
the Phase II payment for the Inland Grove Corporation
property. This money has been budgeted in the Land
(Project 10001) account and was issued from that account.
The payment should have been from the Aids to Government
Agencies account, as this is a grant to the city and not a
payment for land that the County will own. This
transfer, and a County Finance journal entry, will correctly
document the transaction. |
