WHEREAS,
1. The need for and location of a new county courthouse is a matter of great concern to the citizens of Santa Rosa County;
2. The citizens of Santa Rosa County expect wise management of taxpayer resources from their Board of County Commissioners;
3. The Board of County Commissioners has expended over $400,000.00 of taxpayer funds to obtain plans for building a new courthouse located in downtown Milton, Florida;
4. The Board of County Commissioners now proposes to relocate the Santa Rosa County Courthouse to a new location outside of Milton;
5. The proposed relocation will require significant unnecessary costs to taxpayers;
6. The Board of County Commissioners has not sufficiently explained why the current location in downtown Milton is unacceptable for a new courthouse;
7. The proposed relocation will have a disastrous financial impact on business and property owners in downtown Milton;
8. The construction of a new courthouse at the existing location will spur economic growth and development in downtown Milton;
WHEREFORE,
We, the undersigned, respectfully request that the Santa Rosa County Board of County Commissioners approve construction of a new courthouse pursuant to existing design plans, located in downtown Milton, Florida.
