There was a comment that a statement should be added regarding the funding required by GMA and he agrees that something should be added to these goals to address GMA. . Commissioner Huntingford suggested that a statement be added somewhere in these objectives that the County will work with the EDC and the Port to attract businesses to the County. David Goldsmith suggested that a statement could be added as a bullet under objective number 14. Commissioner Hinton reported that the EDC and the Port are currently working on this. . Commissioner Hinton suggested that a 104% property tax levy should be added in objective two. . Ila Mikkelsen, Treasurer stated that she does not feel that an additional department should be added (bullet two, Objective number 7) especially since the Board is trying to meet FTE goals. She suggested that the Budget Committee discuss this alternative and how it can be achieved without adding another department. . Commissioner Huntingford suggested that a bullet be added to Objective number 6 to address the need for more funding for capital facilities' maintenance. . Commissioner Hinton suggested deleting the second bullet on item seven since there is not enough infonnation available on it at this time.
