A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND THE CITY MANAGER, OR DESIGNEE, TO EXECUTE THE 2022 AMENDMENT TO THE INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT WITH BROWARD COUNTY RELATING TO DISTRIBUTION OF THE BROWARD COUNTY THREE-CENT ADDITIONAL LOCAL OPTION GAS TAX ON MOTOR FUEL.
body
BACKGROUND:
The Additional Local Option Gas Tax Agreement levied in 1994 provides for cities to receive 51.27% of three cents of gas tax. This amendment adjusts each city’s percentage share of the 51.27% based on updated population figures.
DISCUSSION:
This resolution is necessary to update the population figures that determine the amount that each city receives from the proceeds of the Additional Local Option Gas Tax on Motor Fuel Ordinance adopted by Broward County. Coconut Creek’s population decreased from 58,803 to 57,871 pursuant to population figures published annually by the Bureau of Economic and Business Research Population Division of the University of Florida, which is used as the official population of Florida cities and counties. Therefore, the City’s portion is decreasing from 1.572815% to 1.530750%.
Please see the attached letter from Norman Foster, Director of the Broward County Office of Management and Budget, explaining this amendment. The three-cent and fifth cent local option gas taxes are the only two gas tax allocations previously authorized by the County that require City Commission approval.

Staff recommends approval of the resolution.
