Boynton Beach agenda review flags FDOT grants, bait-and-tackle contract and community support funds for consent agenda
During the agenda review staff summarized several consent items that will appear for formal action at the commission meeting.

Grants: staff identified a speed and aggressive‑driving grant from the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for the FY25‑26 funding cycle, a DUI/impaired‑driving grant, and an identity‑theft and fraud grant in the $40,000–$50,000 range. Staff said the consent items would authorize the mayor to accept grants and sign future documents as needed.

Facility use and events: staff reported a facility‑use agreement with the ALS Association to rent the city amphitheater for an event on Nov. 15, 2025. Staff also described a food‑truck operator called Rest of the Fish that will operate at Harvey Oyer Park; staff discussed the grand‑opening date with conflicting mentions of Nov. 2 and Nov. 3.

Procurement and capital projects: staff said CIP rollover funding will move incomplete projects from the 2024–25 cycle into available budgets for completion. The bait‑and‑tackle concession RFP was awarded to Florida Tackle Company, a local business, on a five‑year contract. Staff also said the city will rebid HVAC and equipment maintenance and repairs via an RFP rather than a piggyback contract.

Community support and boards: Maylee summarized a single student appointment to the Education & Youth advisory board and said community support funds requested by Commissioner Turkin would support a Thanksgiving turkey giveaway run by Growing Strongs Ministries.

No final roll‑call votes were recorded in the agenda review. Each item will appear on the consent agenda for formal action at the upcoming meeting.
