Escambia Children's Trust attorney Will Dunaway discusses tax increment funds
ESCAMBIA CHILDREN’S TRUST VOTES TO PAY COUNTY INCREMENTS TAXES FOR 2023.
No payment for back 2021, 2023 offered but Board will pursue an interlocal agreement with the county going forward to waive the tax and collaborate with the county on how Trust programs could serve children in the County CRA’s
By John Singley
PENSACOLA, Fla (Oct 8, 2024) “You don’t want to go to war with your local governing body.” was how Escambia Children’s Trust (ECT) lead attorney Will Dunaway advised the ECT board to reach an agreement with the County over CRA increment taxes drawn from ECT revenues.
But, Dunaway said there are no clear legal arguments that support either party.
The ECT formally asked the county in May for a waiver of the TIF taxes. On September 5 the BCC voted to not grant the waiver. The next day, County Attorney Alison Rogers sent a demand letter for full and back payments by October 21.
Regarding a response by the ECT to the County’s demand letter, Dunaway recommended three options:
Pay all TIF taxes present and past.
Pay only FY 2023 taxes and seek an interlocal agreement with the county that will grant a waiver annually and collaborate on how any future funding could support children's services within the Community Redevelopment Agencies;
Pay no TIF taxes.
The ECT Board voted unanimously to approve option 2 with member Lumon May abstaining due to his position as County Commissioner.
During the debate, Lumon May was adamant that the voters approved the Trust to serve the most needy children in the County, not all children. May reminded the board that most of the county CRA’s were in the neediest, most blighted neighborhoods and should benefit from ECT programs.
ECT Board Chair Tori Woods replied that significant ECT funding had already been applied to May’s District 3 neighborhoods including nearly $3 million to zip codes 32501 and 32505. “We are making a difference.” Woods added.
Dunaway’s recommendation for the option 2 compromise was based, he said, on working collaboratively with the county and city and avoiding litigation which could tie up both parties until the ECT was up for another citizens referendum in seven more years.
Of the twelve Children's Trust service councils in Florida, all but two are waived from their county TIF tax. The other two have interlocal agreements that produce collaboration between the Children’s Service Councils and their respective local governments.

    I worked at ST Aero. They treat their employees like crap and terminate over the most petty things. I was a 3rd party contractor but I quit because of how scummy ST was. Singaporeans are probably the most ruthless and petty people on earth when it comes to business.

    Oh no, can't have children learning to touch their own bodies! I've seen the books actually pulled. It wasn't about sex. Books about El Salvador. Books about slavery. Books about presidential scandals. Books about the the treatment of black people post-slavery. It's really not the sexual content these people are worried about. And it doesn't surprise me one bit she wants Handmaid's Tale gone. She's not worried about the graphic image. This book has been in public schools in TN since I was in school in the 80s. It was never a problem until now. Many of the Judy Blume adolescent books I read in the 80s had some racy themes. And who didn't read Go Ask Alice? These books, like video games, are not what's corrupting children. Look at some of our leaders who have been charged with sex crimes but they get excused. Look at all the church leaders who got caught hurting children but it goes ignored. This stuff gets ignored and books are blamed, they're the scapegoat. Because now we are seeing video evidence of the books they're actually removing and most of them are not about sex, they're about minorities and are often written by minorities. And the irony of her rant about The Bluest Eye tells me she missed the point of the book. Or she is so brainwashed she doesn't recognize the historic oppression of women.

    Hey commie - I have a book recommendation for you: Ray Bradbury "Fahrenheit 451" if you're intelligent enough to understand it (I doubt it though, but you should still try.
