- Meeting Overview:
The Oviedo Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) has approved a budget amendment concerning the East Magnolia Street crossing, affected by Hurricane Ian. The amendment, requested to address an embankment washout, will utilize the third generation sales tax fund instead of the CRA’s resources.
During the meeting, a budget amendment was presented to shift the funding for the East Magnolia Street crossing repair from the CRA to the third generation sales tax fund. This decision came after identifying that the damage was likely caused by Hurricane Ian, and the realization that navigating FEMA’s reimbursement procedures would be more complicated than initially thought. By allocating funds from the third generation sales tax, the project can proceed without relying on the uncertain timeline of FEMA’s process. The board approved this amendment, which will allow for the immediate addressing of the infrastructure issue without depleting CRA resources.
Additionally, the meeting saw the selection of new leadership positions within the CRA board. Nominations for the chair and vice-chair were proposed, with the discussion emphasizing the preference for candidates who reside within city limits. The board elected its new chair and vice-chair, but specific details on the nominees and the voting process were not provided in the transcript.
The board also approved the minutes from the previous meeting and discussed upcoming projects, including cost estimates for a Connector Road. The next meeting was scheduled.
