Tomorrow, August 23rd at 5pm down at City Hall, the Sarasota City Commissioners will be considering what FPL says is their “final” offer. I implore you to come down and be a part of this event. I truly cannot predict what will happen.
Listed here are the issues to be discussed during the special meeting on Monday. Second reading of the franchise ordinance is scheduled for September 7, 2010.
It was during a private meeting that the VP from FPL told Mayor Kelly Kirschner that if the City did not accept this offer on Monday, then come Tuesday they would stop collecting the Franchise Fee that would account for $5 Million of the City budget.
These are the documents to be considered:
Robert S. Wright August 20th Letter
Portions of Florida Transportation Code
