DISCLAIMER |

This booklet has been prepared for the
convenience of the Board of County Commissioners in discussing
matters before them. Every effort has been made to include all items
to be discussed at this Board of County Commissioners meeting,
however, Commissioners may add items, which are not a part of this
Agenda, or items may be removed from consideration. While it has
been the goal to present error-free information, we do not represent
that documentation is without errors or omissions.
In addition to regular Board meetings, the Board of County
Commissioners may, from time to time, schedule a workshop during
which they will receive information from staff, have discussions
with staff and among themselves, and then proceed to give staff
direction on the subject matter being discussed unless otherwise
shown on the Agenda item. These discussions and workshops do not
take the place of the formal public hearing process during which any
member of the public may comment and formal action is taken.
The Board and staff welcome written comments prior to workshops and
other meetings. If you have comments or questions regarding the
subject matter of any Board action or workshop, please deliver your
written comments to appropriate County staff or mail to the Board of
County Commissioners, Post Office Box 7800, Tavares, FL 32778. |

Repair and Maintenance (Facilities) to Repair and

funds of $60,000 are needed to replace the hot water boiler
for the Detention Center. The boiler has operationally
deteriorated, will not pass the upcoming state inspection

operational for occupancy. The boiler is part of the
building hot water system, and was installed as part of the
original Detention Center construction. The
anticipated cost of a replacement boiler is $75,000.
The additional funds are available in the Facilities
