Item 1

Public Hearing * Approval of the public transportation Program of Projects, the
submittal of the FY 2017 Section 5307 Urbanized Area Grant based on the
program of projects, execution of the awarded grant and recognition of the
funds. Each year the Federal Transit Administration apportions funding for
urbanized area public transportation assistance. St. Johns County’s apportionment
for FY 2017 is $956,055. Once this apportionment is determined, a Program of
Projects is developed and used as the basis for the Section 5307 Urbanized Area
Grant submittal. Prior to grant submittal, federal guidelines require a public hearing
for the approval of the Program of Projects. The match requirement for this grant will
be 50% for operating and 20% for capital and planning. Operating costs for this
year’s grant is $500,000 comprised of monies from St. Johns County through the
adopted annual budget for transit ($276,489), and FDOT Block Grant funding
($223,511). The 20% match for $451,055 in capital will come from a soft match of
toll revenue credits provided by the State of Florida. The 20% match of $1,250 for
$5,000 in planning will also come from FDOT Block Grant funding. The purpose of
this agenda item is for the approval of the FY 2017 Program of Projects, the submittal
of the FY 2017 Section 5307 Urbanized Area Grant based on the approved Program
of Projects, approval to execute the awarded grant and to recognize the funds in the

bees from requirements of a special use permit per Florida Statute; updates Firing

Item 14

FY 2017 Recommended County Budget Presentation. The annual County budget
process requires a number of steps, ranging from its preparation through adoption.
Florida Statutes (F.S. 129.03(3) and F.S. 200.065, Truth in Millage (“TRIM”)
requirements) specify that a tentative balanced County budget must be submitted to
the Board of County Commissioners as the next step in the budget process. At this
point in time, the FY 2017 recommended County budget has been balanced with
expenditures and adequate reserves within each County fund equal to projected fund
revenues. County Administration believes the recommended County budget
represents a funding level that can reasonably assure the achievement of St. Johns
County’s operational needs while minimizing the tax impact on its citizenry. A
follow-up Board workshop on the FY 2017 recommended County budget will be
scheduled tentatively for July 26, 2016. At that time, following the workshop, the
Board will be asked to set the tentative FY 2017 County millage rates in order to
accomplish the required mailing of notices of proposed property taxes under TRIM.
For practical purposes, once the tentative millage rates are set, they can still be
decreased by the Board, but not increased.

Item 16

Funding Panel members participate in the scoring process. Fourteen applications
have been received. Five applications were submitted on the TDC Arts, Culture
Heritage Funding Panel Application form and nine were submitted on the Standard
Application form. Due to the need to fast-track this item and meet agenda

Funding Panel Application forms from the nine submitted on the Standard
Application form and provided via red folder in advance of the July 19th BCC
