§ 2-603. Duties.

The mission and duties of the committee are as follows:

(a)

To recommend to the Caroline Street Corridor and Bahama Village Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) projects best suited for the use of redevelopment trust funds.

(b)

To recommend to the city commission changes to the Bahama Village Redevelopment Plan and city ordinances that would promote the purposes of F.S. § 163.387, and those which would improve the process for reviewing requests for funding.

(c)

To review applications from individuals and organizations eligible to receive TIF funds and recommend to the CRA those projects they determine by majority vote to deserve consideration by the CRA. Except in circumstances involving a justifiable emergency and those projects under taken prior to the enactment of this ordinance preference should be given to those projects with a contemplated plan of action to ensure the most appropriate and fiscally responsible use of taxpayer funds, rather than to projects seeking reimbursement.

(d)

To recommend to the Naval Properties Local Redevelopment Authority (LRA) the use of land owned by the LRA, but falling within the boundaries of the CRA, for the benefit of the Bahama Village Community Redevelopment Area.
