Gwen, this is what we need to peed for the Public Saftey Board once we get the Ordinance signed from SIC. Since we already have an existing interlocal agreement it appears our date would be between 10/1/05 and 1/1/06. So the sooner the better. We can send it all onto our Board once we get something coordinated with 7IC. lust keep this memo from Patrice it explains everything! From: Patrice Monaco [mailto:pmonaco@tequesta.org] Sew: Wednesday, September 21, 2005 12:18 PM To: )Forsythe@Tequesta. Org Subject: Firefighters' Insurance Premium Tax importance: High I spoke with Trish Schumacher with the State of Florida, Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement. She explained to me that the change to statute 175 takes effect 10/01/2005. As a result, if any changes are made, they would not take effect until the 2006 distribution. • She explained that in order for the Village to collect the insurance premium tax for Jupiter Inlet Colony, the following would have to occur: 1. JIC must pass an ordinance to levy the tax. 2. There must be an interlocal_agreement for the Ullage to provide fire protection services to JIC which must be in effect for 12 months preceding 01/01/2006. Copies of these 2 items must be forwarded to the State of Florida, Division of Retirement so they can set the change up with the Department of Revenue. Then, the 2006 distribution would reflect this change. If additional information is needed, please let me know and I will follow up regarding this matter.

The Tequesta Fire Department provides all of the Fire services for the Town of Jupiter inlet Colony. HB 1159 makes the Tequesta Public Safety Pension Fund eligible for the Florida Statute Chapter 175 excise tax that is already paid by your residents. Currently, these funds are retained in Tallahassee for use by the State. The law is effective October 1, 2005. Attached is a copy of the law. The pertinent provisions are on page 6 at lines 143 through 157 and page 8 at line 215 through page 9 line 224. Enclosed, for your consideration, is a draft of a municipal Ordinance which would place a reporting requirement on the insurers selling insurance within the municipal limits of Jupiter Inlet Colony. The insurers would report the excise taxes paid within Jupiter Inlet Colony which could then be remitted to the Tequesta Public Safety Pension Fund to fund retirement benefits for firefighters. This ordinance does not affect your residents in any way. Residents already pay the tax as a part of their current insurance premiums. This legislation allows the Town to place a reporting requirement on the insurers within the municipal limits. On behalf of the Pension Fund, I am requesting that the Town of Jupiter Inlet Colony • _ __ _. ~' Joann Manganiello, Town Clerk • Town of Jupiter Inlet Colony September 12, 2045 Page 2 enact the draft Ordinance into law. If you have any questions, the Pension Fund would be happy to meet with you to discuss this matter further. Please contact me to arrange a meeting. Sincerely yours, fit' , ~_ Bonni S.
