Finance and Administration Director, Don Warden
The following business was transacted:
Don Warden, Finance and Administration Director, indicated this meeting.
was set during the November 17, 1993, budget hearing. He explained there
is a question as to whether the Law Enforcement Authority is still
relevant since Amendment One has been enforced. Mr. Warden stated the
efficiency of overhead costs to serve the function of a law enforcement
authority is also questionable; therefore, staff recommends abandoning the
authority by working with the County Attorney and the Department of Local.
Affairs. He explained the mill levy would have to be imposed on. Windsor
Shores and the amount of money raised would not be practical. Brace
Barker, County Attorney, stated his only concern with abandoning the
authority is that part of the approval for Windsor Shores Special Bevies.
Permit was to create a law enforcement authority. However, if the Board
considered the authority unworkable and other alternatives to the
authority exist, the Special Review Permit should not be a problem.
Commissioner Harbert said she would be concerned with abandoning the
authority if the Sheriff's Office had received calls from the
neighborhood. Mr. Warden reiterated that the authority does not generate
enough money to support itself, and Mr. Barker concurred that an authority
is not the best mechanism for law enforcement. Commissioner Hall stated
since the land is recreational there may be no one available to impose the
necessary levies. After further discussion, Commissioner Kirkmeyer moved
to direct staff to take the necessary action to abandon the Windsor Shores
Law Enforcement Authority and to devise a mechanism to provide lab:
enforcement for Windsor Shores. Commissioner Baxter seconded the motion,
and it carried unanimously. Mr. Warden indicated a notice would be posted,
and published for the next meeting.
