Pasco County Mosquito Commission Feb 14 2024

Discussion of financing for new complex. Might be a little more difficult than the Commissioners thought it would be.

The Director also responded to the comments, specifically the comments about the "Mold" which was reported in a news story. She said we reported it as "Mold" when it was actually fungus in the mosquito colony. The news report, reported it as Mold in the Lab. When I sent a information request we were told there was no Mold in the Lab. I am befuddled.

Commissioner Cox reported in the news report the following.
$10 Million from the sale of current. $15 Million from reserves. Finance the rest. This will not require a tax increase. We received a tax increase this year, but when they take on the new debt for building a new Campus, there will be no increase.
