This local share is provided by Palm Beach County (with the exception of the local share of the turtle monitoring costs and annual surveys) pursuant to an interlocal agreement dated July 10, 2013. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) is undergoing its annual update of the Florida Beach Management Program Long -Range Budget Plan and developing a prioritized list of State Beach Erosion Control Projects. The culmination of this process is the preparation and submittal of the Department's Fixed Capital Outlay, containing Local Government Funding requests to establish State funding priorities for FY 2014 -15. We are in the process of preparing the detail project descriptions and cost estimates for the ongoing Delray Beach Renourishment Project. Along with this information the FDEP requires a resolution of support and acknowledgment of funding commitment for the local share. The attached resolution meets this requirement. The resolution does not commit the City to proceed with the beach renourishment fill project in any specific year. RECOMMENDATION By motion, approve the resolution of support for the Delray Beach Renourishment Project. http:// itwebapp/ Agendalntranet /Bluesheet.aspx9ItemID =7121 &MeetingID =459 9/10/2013 EITY BF OELRRY BEREH I 1 1, 1 B1 Ll H CITY CLERK 100 N.W. 1St AVENUE • NELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA 39444 5611243-7400 bsftd AI!- America City I I 1093 2002 CERTIFICATION I, CHEVELLE D.
