CRA Resolutions — 2023 (TOECRA Board of Directors)
Source & fidelity note. These six resolutions were originally scanned PDFs with low-quality OCR text layers. This file is a verified transcription: each resolution was checked line-by-line against the page images and OCR errors corrected. Genuine drafting errors in the adopted documents are preserved and marked
[sic]with an editor's note — they are not OCR artifacts. Two resolutions carry multi-page attachments (a budget exhibit and an interlocal agreement) that are not transcribed here; see the notes on CRA-R-2023-1 and CRA-R-2023-2. For exact legally operative wording, this transcription is reliable for the resolution bodies; the attached financial table in CRA-R-2023-1 is not reproduced and should be read from source.All six were signed by Angie Gardner (TOECRA Chair/Chairperson/Chairwoman) and attested by Veronica King (Town Clerk).

A RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN OF EATONVILLE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY (TOECRA) BOARD OF DIRECTORS ADOPTING THE FISCAL YEAR 2023/2024 BUDGET, PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS, SEVERABILITY, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS section 218.33(1), Florida Statutes, states "Each local governmental entity shall begin its fiscal year on October 1 of each year and end it on September 30"; and
WHEREAS Section 218.31 defines "Local Governmental Entity" to include special districts, such as TOECRA; and separate, distinct, and independent from the governing board of the County and Municipality; and
WHEREAS the TOECRA shall adhere to section 218.33(1), Florida Statutes, in order to be in compliance with the requirement to adopt a budget on or before September 30, 2023, to prevent any adverse impact to the TOECRA and/or general Town Government.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE TOWN OF EATONVILLE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OR [sic] EATONVILLE, FLORIDA:
SECTION ONE: The recitals above are acknowledged and in keeping with Section 163, Part III, of the Florida Statutes.
SECTION TWO: CONFLICTS: All Resolutions of the Town of Eatonville Community Redevelopment Agency (TOECRA) or parts thereof in conflict with the provisions of this Resolution are to the extent of such conflict superseded and repealed.
SECTION THREE: SEVERABILITY: If any section or portion of a section of this Resolution is found to be invalid, unlawful or unconstitutional it shall not be held to invalidate or impair the validity, force, or effect of any other section or part of this Resolution.
SECTION FOUR: EFFECTIVE DATE: This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its passage and adoption.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement [sic] as of the date and year as indicated above.
PASSED AND ADOPTED this 21 day of September 2023. — Angie Gardner, Chairwoman; attest Veronica King, Town Clerk.
[Editor's note] The resolution itself is one page (footer: "1of1 Resolution# CRA-R-2023-1"). PDF pages 2–15 are the attached FY2023/2024 budget in line-item detail (14 pages of financial tables). That budget exhibit is not transcribed here — it is precision-critical tabular data and the OCR corrupts the figures. If the source PDF is being removed from the project, capture the budget exhibit separately first (see chat flag). Note also the boilerplate slip: a budget resolution closes with an "IN WITNESS WHEREOF … executed this Agreement" clause.
RESOLUTION CRA-R-2023-2 — Approving Interlocal Agreement (Town ↔ TOECRA)
Adopted: September 21, 2023
A RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN OF EATONVILLE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY (TOECRA) APPROVING AN INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE TOECRA AND THE TOWN OF EATONVILLE FLORIDA AUTHORIZING TO THE TOECRA BOARD CHAIRPERSON TO EXECUTE SAME, PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS, SEVERABILITY AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, by the enactment of Orange County Ordinance 97-M-14 in 1997, the Town Council of the Town of Eatonville, Florida, created a Community Redevelopment Trust Fund to address blighted areas within the Community Redevelopment Area; and
WHEREAS, the TOECRA desires to enter an Interlocal Agreement ("Agreement") with the Town of Eatonville, Florida by which the Town will provide staff to TOECRA and which will outline the scope of services and responsibilities of the parties; and
WHEREAS, the Agreement is made and entered into between the parties pursuant to § 163.01, Florida Statutes, the "Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act of 1969"; and

PASSED AND ADOPTED this 21 day September 2023. — Angie Gardner, Chair; attest Veronica King, Town Clerk.
[Editor's note] PDF pages 2–5 are the 2023 Interlocal Agreement itself, attached as Exhibit "A" — not transcribed here. This is a different, earlier instrument than the January 23, 2025 interlocal already in the project (
INTERLOCAL-AGREEMENT-TOEandCRA-20250123.md); the 2025 agreement presumably supersedes it. If the source PDF is being removed, decide whether to capture the 2023 Exhibit A text first (see chat flag).

PASSED AND ADOPTED this 19 day of December 2023. — Angie Gardner, TOECRA Chairperson; attest Veronica King, Town Clerk.
[Editor's note] The adopted document uses "appealing" / "appeal" throughout (title, fifth recital, Section Two). In context the operative effect is to repeal/reverse Resolution CRA-2020-39 (adopted Oct 20, 2020), which had disbanded the TOECRA Advisory Board — i.e., this resolution undoes that disbanding (reinstating the Advisory Board). "Appeal" is reproduced as adopted; the word choice appears to be a drafting error for "repeal," and the source filename labels it a repeal.
