FLORIDA INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM TO Richard Fosmoen DATE- October 8, 1980 FILE, City Manager SUBJECT Federal Revenue Sharing Reauthorization FROM REFERENCES Howard Gary Assistant City Manager = a ENCLOSURES — It is recommended that the City Commission ask the Florida Senators and Representatives to pass the federal revenue sharing bills as soon as they reconvene. The City has been receiving approximately $8,000,000 annually from the federal government for general revenue sharing purposes. Today this program is in trouble due to the failure of the Government Operations Committee to bring this bill to the floor of the House of Representatives. Evidently, the extension of this program can not be taken for granted, and City officials must let their voices be heard in Washington before Congress reconvenes. I i 8j).1745
