1. Call to Order Shinbane Meeting called to order at 9 a.m.

2. Public Comment

There were no public comments.

3. 2021 BID Assessments Review Coelho The Committee reviewed current and future BID service needs and the costs associated with these. Maintenance services were expanded in 2019 in an attempt to meet the ever-greater demand. These increases were are made possible by using carryover funding from 2018, and were assisted by a 3% increase in assessment revenue in 2019. To maintain these additional services through 2021 (end of the current BID term) without as robust a carryover will require a 5% increase to current assessment revenue.

MOTION: Finance Committee transmits to the Board the recommendation for a 5% assessment increase in 2020. Bhavnani moves; Bauer seconds. Unanimous approval.
