Summary
The City of Auburndale Community Redevelopment Agency tentatively approved the proposed Fiscal Year 2025/26 and 2026/27 budgets, which staff described as balanced, and announced it has engaged Inspire Placemaking to update the agency's redevelopment plan; final adoption will occur later in the budget process.
The City of Auburndale Community Redevelopment Agency on June 16 tentatively approved proposed Fiscal Year 2025/26 and Fiscal Year 2026/27 budgets and said it has engaged a consultant to update its redevelopment plan.
Assistant City Manager Amy Palmer told the board the two-year budget proposal “reflect the proposed Capital Improvement Plan projects in the first two years of the five-year Capital Improvement Plan” and that the proposed “Community Redevelopment Agency Budgets for revenues and expenses are balanced.” She also said the city has “engaged Inspire Placemaking, who is our consultant for the Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations Update, to work out a contract with them to update our Community Redevelopment Agency Plan.”
Staff recommended tentative approval of the budgets; Keith Cowie moved to tentatively approve the proposed FY25/26 and FY26/27 budgets and Alex Cam seconded. Chair Ellie Harper solicited public comment and none was offered. The motion passed with all ayes from members present: Chair Ellie Harper, Vice Chair Tim Pospichal, Dr. Dorothea Taylor Bogert, Alex Cam, Keith Cowie and Jordan Helms. Bill Sterling was absent.
The agency also approved minutes from its May 19, 2025 meeting earlier in the session. That motion was made by Dr. Dorothea Taylor Bogert, seconded by Vice Chair Tim Pospichal, and approved with all ayes.
Palmer said the final Community Redevelopment Agency budget will be presented to the agency for approval in August; if approved, it will be included with the City's Annual Budget and presented at public hearings in September. The meeting was adjourned at 8:37:36 p.m.
