Board of Trustees Workshop – Budget 2007-2008
Friday, June 1, 2007
1:00 p.m. – Building D&E

 The Barefoot Bay Recreation District held a workshop on June 1, 2007 in Building D&E, Barefoot Bay, Florida, to discuss the 2007-2008 fiscal year budget. Chairman John Keegan called the meeting to order at 1:00 p.m.

 Thought for the Day

 Mr. Keegan said, “I hope we use prudence and moderation to try to develop a budget that’s favorable and doesn’t require any increase in our assessment in these financially turbulent times. Especially for our residents who are on fixed incomes.”

 Pledge of Allegiance

 Mr. Keegan led the Pledge.

 Roll Call

 Ms. McCahan called the roll. All Trustees were present. Counsel was not required.

 Mike McCleary of Complete Electric made a presentation regarding Barefoot Bay’s aging electrical infrastructure. Mr. McCleary stated the wiring in question is approximately 35 years old and is direct buried aluminum wire. In Building A most of the electrical panels are Federal Pacific Electric, a name brand which are no longer being made or used, and have become potential fire hazards. Light poles around Building A are only 8 to 10 feet tall and the globes point straight down, decreasing illumination. The lights around Pool 1 are a “shoebox” style, and clouded from age. Mr. McCleary commented new fixtures would be of a kind that did not waste illumination “out onto the water” (of the lake) or shine on homes near the shoreline.

 Mr. Allen asked if the $108,000 quote is the full price of the project. Mr. McCleary responded the price is for 40 fixtures, removing the old ones, and copper circuitry to each fixture. The quote for $13,721 is to replace FPE panels in the electrical room behind the Lounge. Mr. Allan expressed an interest in saving money on the project. Mr. McCleary responded there are lots of options; he explained some of the necessary installation procedures. Ms. McCahan asked what areas the quote involves. Mr. McCleary responded the lights would come in from Barefoot Boulevard, towards Building A, then towards the footbridge and 3 new fixtures on the footbridge, and a few going towards Egret Circle. Ms. Daddario contributed all the work is being done only on Barefoot Bay property, and Mr. McCleary’s presentation is not a quote for consideration at this time. He agreed to appear as an “expert witness” that the work must be done. The globes will be made of heavy duty plastic to minimize vandalism and facilitate replacement when necessary. Ms. Crouse asked what the object was in replacing the fixtures rather than running new lines to existing fixtures. Mr. McCleary responded some of the existing aluminum fixtures (poles included) are “in pretty rough shape”. The fixture heads are corroded and rusty; some are missing lenses around the light bulbs which is a safety issue. Ms. Weglein reiterated the work does not involve the pool area. Mr. McCleary agreed; it does include the horseshoe pits, and certain other areas of that nature, including the flower bed fixtures in front of Building A.

 Audience Participation

 Mr. Keegan commented the item regarding replacing Building F has been removed from the budget. Ms. Daddario commented that after looking at the numbers she had requested it be removed and possibly considered next year.

 Loretta Lynch commented there had been an ice cream store in the Bay at one time that folded because it didn’t make any money.  Ms. Daddario observed that the Press Journal article concerning the Administration building was premature. No new construction takes places without the Board’s approval. Ms. Daddario commented she asked that the item be removed from budget consideration.

 Jeanne Osborne urged the Board to approve the electric work to be done around Buildings A and C. She said improved illumination is critical. Ms. Osborne wanted to know why the money taken in from the social fee was not apportioned among the amenities it was intended to pay for.

 Walt Myer commented that Complete Electric has been to Pool 2 many times and the lights still don’t work.  Mr. Myer commented on the budget item concerning Code Enforcement.

 Al Glashauser commented on the $19,000 in the tax line of the budget for the Shopping Center being shown as expenditure, as well as the $16,000 for property tax Administration. Mr. Glashauser feels the money should also be shown as income. Ms. Daddario responded the District pays property tax on all its properties. The Shopping Center returns a portion of that as revenue. Outside the Shopping Center there is no property tax offset. Taxes that are not offset become an expense to the District which is paid from assessments.

 Dale Page commented on the status of the entertainment director. Ms. Daddario responded that the formula in the budget spreadsheet uses 30 hours as an average number for part-time employees and multiplies by the employee’s wage for median budget purposes. There are no benefits offered to employees who work 30 hours or less. Ms. Daddario invited anyone who wishes to come in and look at employee time cards. The entertainment director often works only 26 hours per week or less. Ms. Daddario commented she uses a formula for a decision making process rather than the cumbersome process of figuring individual scenarios for 80 employees.

 Mr. Keegan referred to page 3 titled Capital Fund Expenditures/Capital Outlay. The figure at the top of the page is $529, 740. The bottom line under FY 2008 can not be more than that without raising assessments. Mr. Keegan said the Community Manager [using a laptop computer] would follow with the Board line by line of the budget to arrive at the bottom line. Ms. Daddario commented [we] are currently working under a budget that was prepared using over $400,000 from reserves, which is what has been done for 2 years. The reserves are depleted in excess of $700,000. The proposed budget does not give the opportunity to do as many things as [you] would like, but it preserves the reserves. It is not healthy for the District to spend more than it is taking in through current year assessments. The last of the FEMA money obligated to the District will arrive in September 2007. Preliminary Audited financial statements should be available this week. They will show depleted reserves in the last two budgets, including 2007. Current capital projects are depleting reserves by about $400,000. The funds have been converted to a capital item (such as the pier, the sea wall) and labeled long term asset. Ms. Daddario addressed the departmental “wish list”. There are a couple of things on it the District must spend money on.

 Brevard County cited the District for infractions at Pool 1; the District must have a signed contract in place by December 1, 2007 for repairs or Pool 1 will be shut down. Mr. Bleau commented repairs could cost as much as $95,000. Ms. Daddario responded she found pavers that would cost $30,000 less than the Brevard Pools proposal. Permits cost money, too. Ms. McCahan questioned the ADA pool lift for $5,000. Ms. Daddario responded the lift is the device used by most pools requiring ADA access.  There are other devices available that fill requirements. Ms. Weglein requested bids for such things and any final contracts be brought before the Board for approval before being signed by “one trustee”.  Ms. Crouse asked if the ADA equipment would be self-operated. Mr. Bleau replied the lift is self-operated. The Board concurred: leave the $140,000 in the budget.

 Building A bathrooms:  $74,000 is for one, $150,000 installs two. Ms. Daddario commented the second bathroom should be located at the back of the building, accessible from the “theater doors” [on either side of the stage], in the area that is not being used for anything else. Mr. Bleau clarified this is the proposal from Don Facciobene. Ms. Daddario commented sewage lines are indicated on a previous blueprint in the District office. The suggested location would allow access to the new seawall area. Ms. Daddario commented the District wishes to do whatever is most economic and feasible; and the project needs approval in the budget. Ms. Daddario described what the bathrooms will contain in response to Mr. Allan’s question. Ms. Daddario asked the Board to increase the $150,000 to $170,000 to accommodate engineering and permits. The Board concurred: put $170,000 in the budget for Building A bathrooms.

 Pool 1 and Lounge ADA bathrooms: these are not included in the current year budget. Pool 1 has nice bathrooms already. The Lounge bathrooms are terrible. The goal in Food and Beverage is to find a way to break even. Ms. Daddario does not wish to pour money into construction unless Food and Beverage can guarantee a return on the investment.

 Barefoot Bay Entrance Reconstruction: Ms. Daddario put this item into FY 2009. Cosmetically the entrance would be lovely, but in reality it is not a necessity this year. Mr. Allan requested the entrance be painted. Ms. Daddario concurred.

 Boulevard Median Irrigation and Landscaping: Ms. Daddario discussed this item with One Source and Brevard County Utilities. The District can tap into reclaimed water. Irrigation supports more landscaping and improves the appearance of the community. Ms. Daddario is working on some grant opportunities to help with the irrigation project.

Repair of Building F:   Ms. Daddario proposes to utilize District employees to build restrooms in Building F. Currently there is one small unisex facility serving 8 employees. The roof ripples and rumbles in a wind. Ms. Daddario feels the building will not survive another hurricane, and she does not wish to construct the accounting system again. Ms. Daddario asked the Board for $15,000 to upgrade Building F. Ms. Donahue commented a decent upgrade will cost more than $15,000 and proposed approving the funds. Ms. McCahan concurred and suggested $25,000. Ms. Crouse did not agree that more money should be put into Building F than was absolutely necessary since it is certainly not a “prime building”. Mr. Klosky agreed to the $15,000, and asked for estimates. Mr. Ferris commented a new roof will cost at least $6,000. He would put a rubber roof over the existing one. The Board agreed to “not more than” $20,000. Mr. Keegan obtained consensus.

 Other items put in FY 2009: 4,000 square feet at Falcon Drive accommodates the golf course equipment. The covered area over the gas tanks, after they are removed, will be used for another piece of the equipment. The existing barn at the golf course can be refurbished. The material is already in the repair and maintenance budget. Mr. Bleau mentioned $40,000 in FEMA money. Ms. Daddario said the District does not have that money in hand yet. The District is supposed to get $240,000: $200,000 for the pier, and $40,000 for the maintenance building. Ms. Daddario said the District has not received the checks yet and can’t count on the money until it is in the bank. Mr. Bleau continued to discuss the golf equipment. Ms. Daddario replied that One Source’s contract expires next year; there is an excellent possibility that the District will go out to bid for a situation wherein the District does not have to pay for equipment. Ms. Daddario contends the District is not in the lawn service business and should not be buying lawn service equipment and having to replace it. One option is that One Source offered to buy their own equipment. Mr. Allan pointed out the District had already spent part of the $40,000 on engineering and plans on a building that was never built. Ms. Daddario commented much of the money has been spent out of [our own pocket] and the money, when it is received, will reimburse the District.

 Ms. Weglein asked where the maintenance employees are operating from currently; if there is enough room for them. Ms. Daddario responded the sale of equipment from the Falcon Drive facility the Board approved netted $11,500. The equipment was fully depreciated which made the sale a gain on assets. Ms. Crouse asked where that money went. Ms. Daddario commented it was placed under Revenues, Salvage property sale income, in the financial statement Governmental Statement of Net Assets 4/30/07. Ms. Crouse commented the money was sitting in the Special Revenue Fund. Ms. Daddario explained the District uses a Pooled Fund. After the auditors come forward with the financial statements, the budget will never be presented in this format again. There is only one fund, the General Fund. Everything will be departmentalized and flow through the General Fund, including the Shopping Center, the Youth Group, the Storm water. The only fund outside of that is the Debt Fund because the District is required to transfer those funds out of the General fund into the Debt Fund to be in compliance with the debt requirements.

 Beach Walkover:  Ms. Daddario explained she did nothing with this item except bring the designated $50,000 forward from a previous budget. She said she had no idea how much it would cost to construct that project. It is not a priority at this time.

 ADA Compliance: Ms. Daddario said there was $50,000 on the list from last year. She does not know what it entails. Mr. Bleau said it was the beach project. Ms. Daddario concluded that meant there was $100,000 in the budget for the beach project. Mr. Bleau commented persons in wheel chairs must be able to get down to the beach. The Board concurred this item would be left out of this year’s budget.

 Community Center Parking Lot:   Mr. Bleau commented the parking lot was not a “dire need” although it could use a slurry coat or a cold patch on the worst holes. Ms. Daddario said the work would have to be contracted and the $100,000 budgeted “was about right” unless the Board directed her to research more exact pricing.  The Board concurred the parking lot would not be done this year.

 Tiki Bar:  Ms. Daddario commented Food & Beverage needs to be at a break-even point before more money could be spent in that area. The Lounge does need a larger ice machine ($3,000). Mr. Keegan asked if there were any comments on that; none were forthcoming.

 Hybrid vehicle for Code Enforcement: Ms. Daddario commented the current Code Enforcement vehicle has 100,000 miles on it, but it still works. Mr. Ferris commented the vehicle should not be listed under “capital outlay”. Ms. Daddario responded that (technically) anything that has a useful life outside your current economic year is considered a capital investment, and while it is not a “capital project” it is considered a capital outlay. IRS considers a vehicle has a minimum 3 year life and needs to be considered a capital expense. Any vehicle requires Board approval which is why it appears in the budget. A former budget included capital outlay in the operating budget as well; Ms. Daddario has not done that. All the capital items are in the capital budget area. $25,000 for a vehicle reflects that the District buys at a discount. Ms. Daddario expressed her responsibility was to bring the “wish list” before the Board for consideration. She reiterated her position that the current Code vehicle would last a while longer. The Board concurred: Code’s vehicle will be considered next year.

 Ms. Crouse asked if the District has a standard policy for equipment replacement. Ms. Daddario responded such a policy would be desirable; the bottom line is how much money there is to spend.

 Photo copier: Ms. Daddario commented staff relocated a photo copier from Falcon Drive. She placed the item in next year’s budget for reconsideration.

 Ice Cream Store Capital Outlay: Ms. Daddario moved the item into next year in order to perform more research. She has concerns that current Shopping Center tenants are suffering financially. The community is not supporting them. Residents have expressed an interest in an ice cream store, but it is not certain how long initial interest will last. Ms. Daddario prefers to have “numbers to believe in” before proceeding. The District is losing $12,000 a year lease income from that particular location. Mr. Allan asked if the District were pursuing new tenants for that space. Ms. Daddario responded it is not the District’s responsibility “at this point”. It is still the responsibility of the lessee to pursue someone to occupy that space. Mr. Allan replied, “We let the lessee out of the lease.” Ms. Daddario responded, “Technically, we’ll discuss that at the next meeting. The Attorney has something else to say about that.”

 Maintenance:  The EZ-Go is on its last legs. Ms. Crouse understands Maintenance needs 2 new units. Is one more repairable than the other?  Ms. Daddario responded one could be repaired. Ms. Crouse requested $5,000 be put in the 2009 budget for replacement of the second EZ-Go. Ms. Weglein suggested since the $6,000 for the photo copier was eliminated that money could be used this year for the 2nd EZ-Go. Ms. Daddario responded the “bottom line” was currently $523,839 and the goal is to keep the capital budget at $529,740. Ms. Crouse asked for the 2nd EZ-Go if there is any spare money left over in the considerations.

 Golf Maintenance Equipment: Mr. Keegan commented One Source’s contract is up August 2008. Mr. Keegan recommended moving the $74,900 to FY 2009 and contracting with a company that maintains its own equipment. Ms. Crouse suggested if the equipment breaks down before negotiations can begin, the District consider a short-term lease to bridge the gap. Mr. Allan concurred with moving the money to FY 2009. Mr. Bleau proposed a meeting with Mr. Henderson to look over the equipment. Ms. Daddario suggested the Board members go individually and report back at the next meeting. Mr. Keegan commented the Golf department needs computer software upgrades and certain renovations to the lake embankments. The mower money can be moved forward, but the rest of the money budgeted needs to stay in this year. Ms. Weglein commented on $1,900 budgeted for software. Ms. Daddario responded the current year budget allowed $8,500 for computer software upgrades, but the actual purchase price was $10,000. Ms. Weglein requested Ms. Daddario bring items like this to the Board to approve Ms. Weglein wants the Board to approve before the purchase is made for additional money. The Board agreed to keep the $1,900 in the current year. Ms. Crouse asked how it was the Board did not understand the Golf situation more clearly. Ms. Daddario responded she has been busy in other areas and until now most of the Golf course management was left to Mr. Kormondy. Ms. Daddario will be more pro-active in Golf course management in the coming year. Ms. Weglein requested copies of contracts as they happen rather than letting it come up at budget time. Ms. McCahan commented on the money for trees. Mr. Bleau responded the trees were knocked down in the 2004 hurricanes, but FEMA declined to replace them. The trees are under “course improvement” in the proposed budget. Ms. Crouse commented there was a program in which residents might replace trees as memorials at no cost to the District. Jeanne Osborne responded there was a voluntary program to make donations for the trees which gathered about $1,000.

 Miscellaneous Capital Purchases:  Ms. Daddario commented a new electrical infrastructure is essential, as is increased illumination. The cost of the project will show up in the bid process. Ms. McCahan asked if there was a hurricane contingency reserve in the proposed budget. Ms. Daddario said the District does not and has not had that in the past. Ms. Daddario reminded the Board it had approved using reserves for capital improvements in the last two budgets. Ms. McCahan asked how much money was left in the reserves. Ms. Crouse replied $313, 817.52. Ms. Daddario said there is about $180,000 in the other reserve account. Ms. Daddario commented it’s been recommended the District provide $1,000,000 for contingencies in case of emergency. She increased the District’s Business Continuity Insurance $600,000. In case of emergency, the District will have the nearly $400,000 in reserve plus the $600,000 from the insurance company. Ms. Daddario commented that after looking at the Bay’s infrastructure improvements, it will probably be another year before the District can put money into the reserves. Mr. Allan asked if the increased insurance were guaranteed money. Ms. Daddario replied that it is guaranteed money.

 Mr. Ferris commented the sensor lights at Pool 2 are on the inside facing the pool. Mr. Ferris wants sensors put on the outside in such a way that lights come on before someone gets into the pool enclosure. Ms. Donahue suggested sensor lights at the basketball court and the playground as well. Ms. Daddario commented she has an estimate for electricity at the playground which will cost approximately $9,000 for two poles facing inward so as not to disturb the residents.

 Mr. Bleau asked for an update of the “bottom line” if the quote from Complete Electric were accepted. Ms. Daddario responded $556,439, $2,699 over budget. However, miscellaneous small purchases is a catch-all for unexpected expenditures. If that is taken from the budget, there would be $19,740 left to spend. That would include the electric infrastructure. Ms. Daddario asked if the Board wanted to include the $9,500 for the playground lights in the budget. Mr. Klosky spoke up for putting that in the budget. Mr. Bleau suggested solar lights. Ms. McCahan suggested sensor lights.

 Mr. Keegan asked how much was left. Ms. Daddario said $10,000. Ms. Crouse reminded the Board she wanted $5,000 of that for a 2nd EZ-Go for Maintenance. Ms. Daddario reiterated that some money needs to be left for contingencies.

 Mr. Keegan asked the Board if they wished to finalize the electrical infrastructure expenditure in this workshop or leave it until the next meeting. Ms. Daddario commented the infrastructure is slated for $138,500 at the Community Center, the Boulevard, the horseshoe pits, and the children’s playground. Ms. Weglein commented on the resolution drafted in [approximately] 2000 that set aside $50,000 into a special fund. Ms. Weglein suggested it be revived and actually have money set aside each month into the fund. Mr. Bleau suggested the $10,240 be used for security. Mr. Keegan asked for a consensus for that. The Board concurred the spare money should be put toward security.

 Ms. Daddario commented payroll and the golf course increase still had to be addressed in order for the budget to be in balance. Ms. Daddario said she had arrived at these numbers by projecting actual numbers for 7 months out for 12 months. The only change she made was reducing the fuel charge by $27,000 in favor of the heat pump.

 Mr. Ferris commented on music and entertainment [Reference: Budget Priorities attached]. He said approximately $63,000 is budgeted for it. Mr. Ferris feels the money would be better spent for security. Ms. Daddario responded $45,021 shows as a negative balance for Food & Beverage in the proposed budget. Because of the cost of entertainment, Wednesday nights will be discontinued for lack of support. Breakfast and Wednesday evening dinner at the 19th Hole has been discontinued which means two cooks and one waitress will not be needed on those days. Mr. Allan suggested getting rid of the entertainment, and rid of the entertainment director, and save $60,000. Ms. Daddario responded one street dance brought in $1,900 and cost $400, including the band. Ms. Daddario pointed out the $573,000 revenue would disappear without entertainment because the residents won’t come out and drink without entertainment. Ms. Crouse commented with payroll the cost has to be higher than $400. She wants to see profits balanced against the cost of goods including employment. Ms. Daddario referred to the P&L [profit and loss] statement in the budget package. She pointed out the current year was budgeted to lose $134,000 in Food and Beverage; currently the loss is about $20,000 which is an improvement of about $100,000. Mr. Ferris commented 17 events are scheduled for June, 15 of them in the Lounge. Subtracting Wednesday nights, the District is still spending $3,300. Mr. Klosky agreed to take Mr. Ferris’ suggestion that the Home Owners Association take over entertainment to the Association at their next meeting. Mr. Allan and Mr. Ferris concurred it should not involve as many hours as are being shown to schedule a month’s worth of entertainment. Ms. Daddario responded the entertainment person performs more tasks for Food and Beverage than just procuring music. Ms. Weglein pointed out that on New Year’s Eve 2004 the District and the Home Owners Association cooperated in a joint event because the Lounge was not available. It was successful. Ms. Weglein urged the two groups to try that on a regular basis; “it doesn’t hurt to cooperate”.  Ms. McCahan said residents wouldn’t settle in Barefoot Bay if the amenities, including parties and music, weren’t available with the purchase of a home.

 Ms. Crouse returned to the Food and Beverage figures. Ms. Daddario reiterated the figures Ms. Crouse was adding together were for 7 months; the budget reflects a 12-month projection.

 Mr. Klosky referred to the FY fund balance for 2007 of $1,410,910 and a year end (2006) of $1,448,384 He asked why they didn’t match. Mr. Klosky brought his reference to Ms. Daddario’s seat for clarification.

 Mr. Bleau suggested solar panels for the pools rather than heat pumps. Ms. Weglein commented Cocoa Beach has solar and the Trustees were going to look at their system. Mr. Bleau made a bid for the golf course to receive a certain amount of the profit that comes out of the 19th Hole. He says it is largely supported by the golfers. Ms. Daddario asked Mr. Bleau what to do with the $300,000 that is being subsidized by the residents in exchange? From an accounting standpoint, Golf and Food and Beverage are revenue producing, the other amenities are not. Mr. Bleau cited Golf revenue in 2006-2007 as being $637,816, with expenditures of $821,985. Ms. Daddario responded there is $90,000 of Golf expenditure hidden in the maintenance budget under capital. [Mr. Hunt] put it there so the residents wouldn’t recognize how much golf was losing. Ms. Daddario commented her predecessor told her that. In addition to the $185,000 that shows, add $90,000. Mr. Allan concurred that golfers support the 19th Hole and that the golf course brings in money; however, because all the residents who live here support every amenity whether they use it or not, Mr. Allan does not want the budget to be aggressive towards the golf course just because it seems to take more money than the other amenities. Ms. Daddario responded that she believes every thing the District offers this community is an amenity and they all hold equal value. The goal is to keep them within reason so the assessments don’t have to be raised to pay for them.

 Mr. Ferris commented the Lounge wasn’t an amenity because he didn’t need a badge to go there. Mr. Keegan pointed out anyone needs a badge to get by the pool host on duty. Ms. Daddario commented the Board had allowed guests to obtain a pass at the Building B office to accompany a resident without having to pay the $2.00 guest fee but only at lunch. Ms. Weglein said some people and employees were entering the pool area without showing a badge, and requested that the practice stop immediately.

 Mr. Allan commented on legal fees. His concern is that the McCool case and the “40 homes” on the Code Enforcement list may cost more than is budgeted [$120,000] Ms. Daddario said she had checked with the attorney before putting the amount in the budget. Mr. Allan questioned the $4,000 for advertising by the Pro Shop. Ms. Daddario explained the Pro Shop places ads for their events and to promote the golf course in general. Mr. Allan is not in favor of a 5% increase in employee salaries “across the board”. Ms. Daddario explained the 5% has been a 2% COLA and 3% merit. She has asked the Board not to do that this year. Ms. Daddario is researching a different health insurance plan that will save money.  Ms. Daddario proposed reducing sick days from 12 days a year to 6, and changing the policy to “use it or lose it”. The District would pay for unused sick time each year instead of rolling it over into the next year. Mr. Allan questioned benefits for part time employees. Ms. Daddario replied the status is benefits for full time employees only. There is a conflict between the policy and the way the insurance company allows the District to extend benefits. Policy says benefits extend to employees who work in excess of 32, possibly 33, hours a week. There are 4 employees who are not full time that [Mr. Hunt] gave benefits to for 25 hours a week. By policy these employees are not eligible; Ms. Daddario urged the Board to enforce the policy. Mr. Allan asked Ms. Daddario why she had not averaged part time hours over the course of a year. Ms. Daddario responded it’s because part time hours are sporadic, and she is also addressing the manner in which scheduling is done, especially in the Food and Beverage department. Ms. Crouse commented she has researched employment and believes the District is “in line”, but does not think the entertainment director is in line. Ms. Crouse asked how the District gives merit increases. Ms. Daddario explained 3% is maximum, and the departmental managers recommend the rate of increase on the yearly evaluation. There is usually an increase when a probationary period is served.

 Ms. Weglein commented she feels the music should be cut back, not out. Ms. Weglein did a wage comparison, and most of the District’s employees are within State guidelines. Ms. Weglein touched on the golf membership increase.

 Ms. Donahue commented entertainment might be supported better with a small cover charge.

 Ms. Daddario commented expenses reflect the current rate of spending. The budget is in line with where [we] expected to be with the exception of a couple of under budgeted areas like health insurance. Mr. Kormondy projected $769,000 golf revenue. Mr. Allan reminded everyone our golf course is an executive course with par 60.

 Ms. Daddario commented she would try to plug in an average hour for each employee for the next meeting. She will add the golf course increase to the revenues.

 Mr. Bleau asked if the greenhouse would be coming soon.  The greenhouse is ready to ship and will be installed as soon as Brevard County comes through with the permits. Mr. Bleau received his financial disclosure packet from the Supervisor of Elections. It still lists Diane Sauls as the financial disclosure coordinator. That should be changed. Attention Judy Peacock that Ms. Daddario is the new financial coordinator.

 Adjournment

 Mr. Keegan entertained for a motion to adjourn. Mr. Bleau made the motion to adjourn. Second Mr. Ferris. The workshop adjourned at 4:18 p.m.

  THIS DRAFT OF MINUTES HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED BY THE BAREFOOT BAY RECREATION DISTRICT BOARD.  IT IS SCHEDULED FOR APPROVAL DURING THE NEXT MEETING.
