Summary
City Manager Mike Steigerwald told the commission that three Kissimmee funding requests cleared required House and Senate committees and await floor votes; staff warned the projects still face the governor's veto power.
City Manager Mike Steigerwald updated the commission that Kissimmee’s three legislative funding requests have been approved by the House and Senate committees required for their progress and are awaiting floor votes in each chamber.
Steigerwald said the projects have cleared committee review and are “in really good shape,” but cautioned that the requests still face the possibility of a gubernatorial veto after the floor votes. He said staff and commissioners would be in Tallahassee the following day to continue advocacy on the city’s behalf.
No project names, dollar amounts or committee details were provided during the public update in the meeting transcript.
