BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT WALTON BEACH, FLORIDA: Section 1. Authority & Intent a. The City of Fort Walton Beach has the Authority to adopt this ordinance pursuant to its powers provided in Section 2 of the City Charter and Section 166. 021( 1), Florida Statutes, and the provisions of Chapter 163. b. Pursuant to section 163.361, of the Florida Statutes ( 2010), on June 2, 2010, the Board of Commissioners of the Fort Walton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency recommended an update to the Community Redevelopment Agency Plan adopted by Ordinance 1747 on December 11, 2007 (" CRA Plan"). c. Section 11.4. 1 of the CRA Plan provides for the " ongoing maintenance and/or construction and rehabilitation of core utilities such as sewer or water lines and stormwater management facilities, as well as pavement, sidewalk, curb and gutter, etc." d. Since the Plan was adopted, the CRA has completed numerous capital projects that require ongoing and continuous maintenance but are not specifically within the language of section 11.4. 1. Therefore, Revenue Trust Funds cannot be expended for the ongoing maintenance of those projects. e. An amendment to section of the CRA Plan is necessary to 11. 4. 1 implement and accomplish the goals of the CRA Plan and to ensure the continued success of the CRA Plan. Section 2. Amendment of Section 11.4. 1 of the Fort Walton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency Plan Therefore, section 11.4. 1 of the CRA Plan is hereby amended as follows: The redevelopment contemplated in this Plan requires substantial public investment in public infrastructure and amenities in terms of ongoing maintenance and/or construction and rehabilitation of core such as sewer or water utilities-,- lines and stormwater management facilities, as well as amenities. such as pavement, sidewalk, curb and gutter, streetscaping. park improvements. right-of- way improvements. and the like. These ongoing infrastructure projects will be scheduled through the City' s five- year capital improvements plan; however, as  private development occurs that requires upgraded infrastructure and amenities the City/CRA will reprioritize the schedule so as to have the projects implemented concurrently with planned private development projects to the maximum extent possible" .
