Sarasota County wants to hear from residents about the county budget. To obtain more involvement and consensus in the budget planning for next year, Sarasota County will hold a “virtual” Town Hall meeting before the county commissioners begin budget workshops in mid-June. The Town Hall will be at 6:30 p.m. Monday, June 8. in the Sarasota County Access TV television studio.The discussion will be broadcast with a studio audience on Comcast 19 and Verizon 32. The session also will be streamed on this Web site.
Citizens can participate in the discussion and ask questions three ways:
e-mail: communityconnections@scgov.net
Phone: 941-861-2255 (Active on June 8)
Fax: 941-861-7354
“Changes in the economy and property values need to be balanced with community preferences for services,” said County Administrator Jim Ley. “With more information about public preferences and priorities as we prepare the fiscal year 2010 budget, the county commission can make better policy decisions with more community consensus.” For more information about the “virtual” Town Hall meeting, call the Sarasota County Call Center at 941-861-5000 or visit the Community Connections Web site.
