HISTORY, BACKGROUND and  DISCUSSION

Resolution No. 27, dated April 28, 1981, authorized the establishment of an Authority for the Fort Custer Industrial Park District. Its purpose is to halt a decline of property values, increase property tax valuation, eliminate causes of decline in value, and promote growth in the Fort Custer Industrial Park.

 

Resolution No. 138, May 19, 2015, established the following criteria for the Board: city resident – 4 members; property owner, business owner or designee of the TIFA District – 4 members; City Manager or designee – 1 member; not less than nine (9) nor more than thirteen (13).

 

Resolution No. 230, September 6, 2016, clarified the following criteria for the Board: 

 

Each of the no more than thirteen members shall meet either the City resident criteria or the property owner, business owner or their designee of the TIFA district requirement, with the minimum numbers being four and four. The size of the Board shall not be less than nine nor more than thirteen members as determined and appointed by the City Manager subject to the approval of the City Commission.  It, also, further clarified that Board Members shall serve no more than four consecutive, four-year terms, to be determined at the time a member is up for reappointment; and each person interested in a position on the TIFA Board, that meets the established criteria, shall submit an application using the City’s Board and Commission application form for review and consideration by the City Manager.
