Commission adopts code change to allow county manager to release performance bonds
Summary
The commission approved an amendment to Chapter 62 (performance security) to allow the county manager or designee to release performance bonds once county staff accept work, a procedural efficiency measure that passed unanimously.
Brevard County staff asked the board Aug. 12 to adopt an amendment to the county code — Chapter 62, Article 7, Division 2, section 62‑2844 — to permit the county manager or the manager’s designee to release performance bonds for development projects after staff accept completed work. The board had previously reviewed the proposal at legislative-intent and local-planning levels; staff said the change would streamline administration by allowing staff to release performance security once work meets county standards rather than requiring full board action for routine releases.
The board voted 5-0 to adopt legislative intent and to schedule the ordinance for public hearing and advertisement; staff characterized the amendment as an efficiency measure and noted it had received unanimous advisory approval from the BCAC and near-unanimous support at the LPA.
There were no public objections recorded on the item during the hearing. Staff will prepare the final ordinance for a subsequent public hearing and return to the board for formal adoption.
