2. Amendment to Expansion of Driver_s Education Program
August 05, 2003
Status: 
 
 

Quick Summary / Abstract
Approve the amendment to the agreement with Broward County Government, which will allow a revision to the budget resolution with the Broward County Commission to provide funds for the Driver_s Education Program.

Earlier this year, the School Board approved a contract with the Broward County Commission to provide additional dollars to underwrite the cost of enhancing the district_s Driver_s Education Program. This agreement is based on an action taken by the Florida Legislature in 2002, which added $3 to every traffic citation to be used to provide automobiles to be used for road experience.

In the budget resolution approved by the County Commission on April 29, 2003, a specific amount of $111,054 was referenced along with the district_s purchase of 6 cars for the program. The district was actually able to purchase 8 cars for the same amount. The purpose of this amendment is to accurately reflect both the amount of funds that will be transmitted to the district and the number of cars that will be purchased with those funds.

This contract will remain in affect until September 30, 2003. Staff anticipated additional amendments to aid in the ongoing transmittal of funds as they are collected.

Approved as to form by School Board Attorney.

It is Broward County policy that the School Board execute this agreement first.

As a result of this Agreement, $111,054 will be provided to the school district by Broward County Government.
