What the county recorded

This item is not from the published agenda

It is a stretch of the recording that this archive identified as a separate matter — a call to order, a recess, or something taken up that the agenda does not list. There is no official title, no staff recommendation and no disposition, because the county never recorded one. Everything below is inferred.

I will now provide a summary of the other two Municipal Service Taxing Unit MSTU budgets, stating the tentative millage rates, the percentage change from the rollback rate, and the reasons for the change. No millage was levied last year and we propose no millage be assessed this year for the Parks Capital Maintenance Municipal Service Taxing Unit Fund. I would ask the Board to accept public comment and then vote on the Parks Capital Maintenance Municipal Service Taxing Unit Millagery and Associated Budget. Since no levy is being proposed, the minimum vote for this tentative hearing is a simple majority or three votes.

StarkeyChair

Okay, does anyone here wish to speak to the Parks M STU?

You know, I was a I was a it was four to one on this last time, but I w I can't do that this time. I wish I could, but um I'm not gonna have you try and talk my fellow board members into funding parks better and send out another trim notice. Which is what would happen. Huh? Only if we send out another trip notice, so I won't do that. Um so I will vote for it, but but I just on record I think we're underfunded part.

WeightmanSecond Vice Chair

To be fair, I would have voted for it too if the structure of the language was different in the MSTU. If we're gonna vote for a new tax, You better have the language the right way to have a true generational impact in my opinion. So it's not that I'm against parks. I was against the language and the structure of this tax.

StarkeyChair

Yeah, and you know depending on what they do in Talasic, we have to do a lot of things that we're talking about. Yeah, the language

Mike Carballa

the language is now updated, but I think as we discussed in our workshop, there were some structural changes with the remainder of the budget that needed to happen first uh before we Had that subsequent conversation, namely around public safety and expenses of the general funds.

StarkeyChair

Okay. Um there was no public comment. Correct. So I'll take a motion.

Second. No. For zero mills. I'm taking a motion for zero mills for the parks, capital maintenance, MSTU. Do I have a second?

Unidentified speakerVoice A
