BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: July 15, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Ed Schroeder
SUBJECT: Beach Restoration MSBU - Initial Assessment Resolution FY 2015
DEPARTMENT: Tourist Development Department
BCC DISTRICT:
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request approval and adoption of the Beach Restoration MSBU
Initial Assessment Resolution and scheduling of a Public Hearing to consider adoption of the
Final Assessment Resolution.
BACKGROUND: On December 4, 2007, the County adopted Ordinance 07-71 which created
the Okaloosa County Beach Restoration Municipal Services Benefit Unit (MSBU). The purpose
of the MSBU is to facilitate the imposition of special assessments to partially fund the Beach
Restoration Project within the MSBU. As a result of prior action of the Board, the assessment
within the Okaloosa Island Subarea has been eliminated and refunds paid. Therefore, this
assessment will only be within the Destin Subarea.
The Initial Assessment Resolution before the Board will begin the process for the imposition of
the assessment for Fiscal Year 2014-2015. The purpose of this Initial Assessment Resolution is
to establish the proposed rates for the assessment, direct that notice be given for a public hearing
to consider the adoption of a final assessment resolution and schedule that hearing. The rate of
the assessment will be the same as imposed in the prior fiscal years and will only be imposed
within the Destin Subarea.
OPTIONS: Approve or Disapprove
RECOMMENDATION: Approve and adopt the Initial Assessment Resolution for the Destin
Subarea within the Okaloosa County Beach Restoration Project Municipal Service Benefit Unit
for Fiscal Year 2014-2015 and schedule a public hearing for August 19, 2014 at 6:00 p.m. at the
Water & Sewer Building, 1804 Lewis Turner Boulevard, Fort Walton Beach, FL to take public
comments and to consider adoption of the Final Assessment Resolution.
