Member Calio was asked to provide the Chair a copy of the surgeon's letter
regarding EMS service to a resident on Sand Key to attach to the report. It was requested
a paragraph be added to the report regarding the outstanding job staff did in providing
information and support to the Task Force. It was requested the order of funding sources
in the Table of Contents and Summary be rearranged.

ready on Monday. Member Tieman did a dry run of the audio portion of the presentation
last week. It was noted Member Tieman did not wish to present Part II of the report,
which deals with funding recommendations.
, Discussion ensued regarding Part II and the Summary of the report. It was felt
Member Evich' would be an excellent choice to do that part of the presentation. Member
Evich accepted,'
It was suggested all members attend the April 61 2000, presentation to the
Commission to an~~er questions.
Discussion ensued in regard to the next meeting. Consensus was to schedule ,a Fire
Task Force meeting at 3:00 p.m. on April 4, 2000, in the OED room at City Hall to review
the final presentation.
Discussion ensued regarding Internet taxation legislation. The City Clerk said staff
is actively opposing the prohibition of taxing Internet transactions. The National League of
Cities is also scrutinizing the issue. Legislators supporting a five-year moratorium do not
have sales taxes in their states. States that enforce collection of sales taxes over the
Internet have a physical presence in that particular state which requires them to charge
and collect sales tax and pay it to the state. It was remarked that as it is not C05t-
effective, Florida generally does not bother to collect sales taxes unless it involves large
sums of money.
Member Evich distributed the most current Penny for Pinellas priority list.
Discussion ensued in regard to Penny funds and Budget Director Tina Wilson said even
with a rise in sales tax revenue due to redevelopmentl funds for the new bridge must be in
place by June 30, 2001, and cannot be diverted to other projects.
