Notes
- General Note:
- Present at this meeting are: Maud Newbold, Eugenia B. Thomas, Miguel Germain, Bernice Sawyer, Enid Pinkney, Gustavo Godoy, M. Athalie Range, Gene Tinnie, David Shorter, Guy Forchion, and several other staff members and presenters. Over the course of the meeting, the Trust discusses business related to a children's area for Historic Virginia Key Beach Park and the financial "highlights" for the previous fiscal year, presented by Lee Robinson, the Virginia Key Beach Park Trust's finance director. Robinson notes that the Trust's fund balance increased during the previous fiscal year, revenues increased over the course of the previous fiscal year, and expenditures increased as well. Robinson notes that expenditures increased due to salaries due to the hiring of marketing officer and the executive director, but the Trust is still operating within their projected expenditure budget because they did not hire anyone for the museum coordinator position. Next the Trust discusses a resolution for the Trust to authorize the application for a grant in the amount of nineteen thousand dollars from the Safe Neighborhood Parks Bond program. Next, the Trust discusses the placement of a historical marker at Historic Virginia Key Beach Park, the need for additional financial funding in order to open the park by the spring of 2006, and the need for public input regarding the Virginia Key Beach museum. Finally, the various committees present their reports to the Trust. Discussions include: employee health insurance, conducting the final rounds of interviews for potential consultants regarding the running of the Trust's capital campaign, and the progress of the oral history documentary. Finally, the marketing committee presents its report regarding the 2005 celebrations, the historical marker, and the production and creation of souvenir items. The meeting ends with a note that the next meeting will be held January 3, 2005.
