Lynn Haven CRA board approves FY2022-23 annual report after staff outlines year-end balance

The Lynn Haven Community Redevelopment Agency board approved its fiscal year 2022-23 annual report at a meeting that began at 5:00 p.m., following a brief staff presentation of the agency's finances.

Mr. Janke presented the report, saying the filing is “required by Florida statute” and summarized the agency's finances: a starting fund balance of $812,191, revenues of $694,681 and expenditures of $512,995, leaving a reported year-end balance of $993,877. The transcript records the fiscal-year end date as 09/30/2003; the item was introduced as the FY2022-23 annual report and the figures were presented in that context (see clarifying details).

Board members moved and seconded approval without recorded public comment. The first motion on the consent agenda to approve meeting minutes for 04/13/24 passed on a roll call in which each named member voted yes. Later, Commissioner Ward moved to approve the CRA annual report and Commissioner Purnell seconded; the city manager called the roll and the motion passed.

The meeting record shows each roll call recorded as "yes" for the members named in the transcript. The transcript contains inconsistent name spellings for some elected officials across the two roll calls (for example, the mayor is recorded once as "Mayor Nelson" and later as "Mayor Dawson," and a commissioner's surname appears as Purnow/Purnell/Parnell in different lines); the minutes should be reviewed to confirm the official roll-call names and spellings.

The meeting adjourned after the vote.
