Also Present: Tina Wilson Budget Director
Ed Hart Clearwater City Commissioner

The meeting was called to order at 8:00 a.m. at the Municipal Services Building.
Commissioner Ed Hart introduced himself and stated his interest in attending this meeting for a better understanding of the overview and scope of service(s) provided by the FRC (Fiscal
Review Committee).
Discussion - Intended Purpose and Structure of Committee
Members reported their findings of similar FRC’s in adjacent cities. The City of Largo has a seven-member committee which meets only when a specific project is assigned, and not on
a set schedule. The City of Dunedin has two similar fiscal committees, which utilizes a different member selection process than Clearwater.
Discussion ensued regarding the FRC’s purpose, committee member selection process, number of committee members, and appointment. It was noted that this FRC has made recommendations,
which are reported in the minutes, as well as members reporting back to their appointing commissioner.
Ms. Wilson presented an overview of agenda items.
It was requested that Ms. Wilson proceed with sending letters to newly appointed commissioners requesting their appointment of a FRC representative. This committee has attempted to
continue their services while hindered by the shortage of two committee members over the past six months.
The next meeting FRC was rescheduled for Thursday, June 24, 1999. Ms. Wilson will provide members with a copy of the draft capital projects document prior to the next meeting.
Adjournment
The meeting adjourned at 9:10 a.m.
* The committee did not meet again. At the city commission meeting of 9/7/00, the board was dissolved.
