Dear Chamber Member:
Late Friday an amendment was introduced to SB 1024, (see page 74), which basically takes control of RESTORE Act funds away from the 8 disproportionately affected counties portion of Pot #1 (Local) and puts it under the control of the State. It does not affect the other portion of Pot #1 going to the other 15 affected counties. It does not affect Pot #3, the Gulf Consortium Pot. This weekend and today, our county administration has been working very hard to get additional information and a strategy for stopping this amendment. We need your help in making phone calls and sending e-mails to the House Appropriations Committee and the Panhandle Legislative delegation
against the amendment that takes control of RESTORE Act funds coming to Wakulla County. Provided with this e-mail is the contact information for the Senate and House Appropriation committees, the Panhandle Legislative Delegation, the proposed amendment to SB 1027 and a summary of the impact of this amendment regarding the RESTORE Act funds.
