Tampa Bay Rays, MLB go faceless with player avatars amid player lockout In their final notes, EDR said the Florida Department of Revenue had not yet submitted its review of the study, which would be part of a “critical determination” for the feasibility as it deals with tax revenue and operational funding. Taking the additional information from the incorporation supporters’ response into account, the EDR said the element for Standard 6 had been satisfied. Those in support of incorporation told the state that “Siesta Key intends to continue all services currently provided by Sarasota County, which includes fire, EMS, law enforcement, mosquito control, public works, solid waste, water and sewer, library, building inspections, and parks and recreation.” Siesta Key would initially “decline state revenue sharing” and fiscal impacts to Sarasota County would be limited to loss of some electric franchise fee revenue and some local government infrastructure surtax proceeds, which would instead fund the town. The state took issue with how the study does not address the potential financial deficiencies or estimated costs for those interlocal agreements, nor how the new municipality would affect county revenue sharing. Tampa, Sarasota home prices rise over 25%, bigger increase than majority of US As proposed, all services that are currently provided by the county would still be provided, until Siesta Key’s incorporated government enters its own agreements for them with the county, or “negotiates contract services with other providers.” However, a sheriff’s office substation and fire station were recently built on Siesta Key, satisfying some of the state’s concern over feasibility.Īccording to the submitted feasibility study and legislative analysis, Siesta Key would operate as a “government-lite” municipal power, expected to benefit from the economies of scale provided by Sarasota County and its government services, whenever possible. Specifically, the county provides law enforcement, emergency medical services and fire control.

While the court jurisdiction was not addressed directly, from the state’s response, it appears the public agencies and services provided by the county serve to handle the jurisdictional issues and the element “was satisfied,” according to the legislature’s analysis. Taken together in their Standard 4 submission, those who support incorporation said they expect tax collection services handled by the Municipal Services Taxing Unit to continue providing its service, with the consent of the new municipality after incorporation.
