Latest version.
For the purpose of carrying into effect and the administration of this article, the
Board of County Commissioners shall annually, at the time required by general budgetary
law, review and adopt an itemized estimate of the amount of money required to carry
out the business of the unit for the next fiscal year, which shall be from October
1 to and including September 30 following (the "budget"). The proposed budget shall
be prepared and reviewed by the Pelican Bay Services Division Board prior to its consideration
by the Board of County Commissioners and after review by the Pelican Bay Services
Division Board, the budget shall be heard, considered and adopted by the Board of
County Commissioners as provided for herein. The proposed budget shall describe the
purpose or purposes for which the moneys are required and the amount necessary to
be raised by taxation and special assessment within the unit. At the time and place
for establishing the annual rate of taxation for county purposes, the Board of County
Commissioners shall fix and cause to be levied on all property within the unit subject
to taxation or assessment a millage and assessment sufficient to meet the requirements
of the budget; provided, however, the total millage shall not exceed the millage authorized
by law for municipal service, taxing and benefit units.
