Additionally, request consideration of the adoption of a Resolution establishing a policy that would provide that the County would only facilitate competition consistent with the general law provisions the Legislature has laid out, and to act minimally to provide consent or serve as a "limited member", and to keep the County separate and apart from other governmental entities authorized and regulated by the State Legislature, while encouraging competition, choice and service to interested private property owners. | | Request: | | Approve the following: 1) amendment to the Subscription Agreement with The Florida PACE Funding Agency, Contract No. CM1960-A1; 2) a Resolution amending Resolution No. 2013-27, which authorized the execution of a Subscription Agreement with the Florida PACE Funding Agency pursuant to which the agency will administer a Financing Program for Energy Conservation and Efficiency Improvements, Renewable Energy Improvements and Wind Resistance Improvements within the boundaries of Nassau County, Florida; and providing an effective date; and 3) a Resolution establishing a policy as regards to financing energy conservation and efficiency improvements, renewable energy improvements, and wind resistance improvements; providing an effective date. | | Financial/Economic Impact to Future Years Budgeting Process or Effect on Citizens: | | Effect on Citizens: Creates competition in the market and creates local economic activity.
