Dear Colleagues,
Mayor Gimenez announced his FY 2015-2016 budget recommendations yesterday. I am pleased to report that the Mayor has recommended sufficient revenues for us to continue to conduct our competitive grants programs at current year’s overall funding levels.
It also is important to note that the Mayor’s recommendations for the coming year must be reviewed and acted upon by the Board of County Commissioners.
Here are highlights of the next steps:
