WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of Okaloosa
County, Florida, has heretofore adopted Ordinances Nos. 87-13,
and 03-14, imposing six cents local option gas taxes, and
WHEREAS, the County and the eligible municipalities had
heretofore adopted an interlocal agreement for the division and
distribution of the aforesaid tax, and
WHEREAS, the interlocal agreement was effective for a
period of ten years commencing May 30, 2003, and
WHEREAS, the parties have not entered into a new agreement
for the division and distribution of the six cents local option
gas taxes, and
WHEREAS, Section 336.025, Florida Statutes, provides that
in the event there is not an interlocal agreement the proceeds
of the tax levied shall be distributed among the county
government and eligible municipalities based on the
transportation expenditures of each for the immediately
preceding 5 fiscal years, as a proportion of the total of such
expenditures for the county and all municipalities within the
county.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County
Commissioners of Okaloosa County, Florida, that the local option
gas tax authorized by Ordinances Nos, 87-13, and 03-14, shall
continue to be levied and the proceeds of the tax shall be
distributed among the county government and eligible
municipalities based on the transportation expenditures of each
for the immediately preceding 5 fiscal years, as a proportion of
the total of such expenditures for the county and all
municipalities within the county.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that each of the municipalities of
Okaloosa County are hereby requested to provide the Clerk of
Circuit Court with their transportation expenditures as defined
by Section 336.025 (7), Florida Statutes, for the 5 fiscal years
immediately preceding the current fiscal year. This request is
being made in order for the Clerk to calculate the distribution
formula for notification of the Department of Revenue prior to
October 1. The expeditious response to this request will assist
all local government entities in preparing their budgets.
DULY PASSED AND ADOPTED in regular session this the 4th day
