1E SPECIAL PRESENTATION(S)  
1F DISCUSSION ITEM(S)  
1F1  
  261235 Discussion Item      
  DISCUSSION ITEM REGARDING THE PROPOSED FY 2026-27 BUDGET PRESENTATIONS FROM THE FOLLOWING DEPARTMENTS: � INTERNAL COMPLIANCE DEPARTMENT � STRATEGIC PROCUREMENT Presented
  REPORT: Dr. Edwards introduced Ms. Tamayo, who would present ICD's strategic objectives for the year on behalf of the County Mayor.

Ms. Tamayo presented an overview of ICD's mission, functions, results, challenges, and modernization priorities. She described ICD as an operational partner that helped departments strengthen internal controls, improve business processes, recover revenue, and manage risk, and she suggested that the department's preventive role could be characterized as the County's enterprise risk management function. She noted that ICD served County departments, the Jackson Health System, municipalities, and constitutional offices through its credit and collections, risk management, purchasing card compliance, and process and control management functions. She advised that support for the County's Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system would transfer to the Clerk of the Court and Comptroller (COCC) effective August 3, 2026. Among the department's accomplishments, she reported an 11 percent increase in debt collections, the completion of 52 review reports in the prior year, approximately $402,000 in assessments, and approximately $613,000 recovered through purchasing card compliance reviews. She identified the department's key issues as a legacy code enforcement system, workforce recruitment, retention, and retirements, and the need for a more coordinated and data-driven approach to risk management. She outlined three priority initiatives: replacing the legacy code enforcement system, expanding the responsible use of artificial intelligence in collections and process reviews, and strengthening enterprise risk management. Ms. Tamayo concluded that ICD's value should be measured by outcomes such as revenue collected or recovered, losses prevented, processes improved, and controls strengthened.

Commissioner Cohen Higgins requested a printed copy of the presentation for the dais and asked whether ICD's budget reflected the administration's charge to hold departmental budget increases to no more than three percent year over year.

Ms. Tamayo confirmed that it did.

Chairwoman Lopez called for SPD�s presentation, and Dr. Edwards introduced Ms. Uppal.

Ms. Uppal stated that SPD's vision was to be the global leader in purpose-driven procurement, reflecting the Board's values of transparency, fairness, and inclusion. She outlined the department's major functions, including contracts for goods, services, architecture and engineering, design-build, and public-private partnerships, and noted that the prior year's merger with small business services had brought the certification programs, the miscellaneous construction contracts program, the equitable distribution program, and countywide vendor registration under SPD. She described the department's procurement academy for County staff and other jurisdictions and its vendor training academy. She advised that the proposed budget contemplated the transfer of the real estate management division to SPD, which would place property acquisitions and sales, development agreements, and leases under the department. She identified the department's key customers as County residents, the vendor community, County departments, constitutional offices, and municipalities that piggybacked on County contracts.

Ms. Uppal reported the department's accomplishments, including two in-house artificial intelligence tools recognized by the National Association of Counties, national procurement awards, a public procurement certification program that had certified over 449 individuals, 359 vendor outreach events reaching approximately 24,000 participants, and $5.4 billion in contracts brought before the Board in 2025 through 179 items. She thanked the Chairwoman for appointing the STRIP task force and noted that the department had analyzed over 200 pieces of legislation and would soon present recommendations. She identified key issues, including complex federal, state, and local regulations, multiple systems that did not communicate with one another, and staff retention, noting that the department had lost six or seven key employees to constitutional offices in the past year. Her priority initiatives included reducing small business certification requirements from over 60 to 30 and cutting certification processing time by half, reducing the procurement cycle to 90 to 120 days for procurements under $5 million and 120 to 150 days for procurements over $5 million, and launching an online procurement status dashboard. Ms. Uppal concluded that SPD's budget also reflected the three percent limit.

Commissioner Cohen Higgins asked both directors what they had been asked to present, observing that the agenda described the item as a budget presentation but that neither presentation contained any budget figures. She contrasted this with the previous day's transportation presentation, which had opened with the department's $2 billion budget.

Dr. Edwards explained that staff had been asked to prepare summaries of their budget drivers and accomplishments so that members would understand the assumptions underlying each department's priorities, and she noted that the County Mayor would present the proposed budget at approximately 2:30 p.m. that day.

In response to Commissioner Cohen Higgins' request for macro figures, Ms. Uppal stated that SPD's proposed budget was approximately $53 million, including the real estate transition, comprising $33 million in personnel, $12.2 million in operating, and $7.2 million in transfers. She confirmed that the budget was within the three percent limit and explained that the prior year's merger of small business services with procurement had resulted in the elimination of 50 positions, with additional position eliminations contemplated for the coming year.

Dr. Edwards noted that neither department was fully general fund supported and that the administration had focused the three percent target on bending the general fund cost curve while protecting revenue-generating functions.

Ms. Tamayo stated that ICD's proposed budget was approximately $72 million but that the two technology divisions supporting the ERP system, which represented roughly half or more of that amount, would transfer to the COCC. She explained that credit and collections was self-funded through its collections, that process and control reviews were not entirely general fund supported, and that risk management was self-funded through insurance. In response to

Commissioner Cohen Higgins' question regarding the 11 percent figure, Ms. Tamayo clarified that the department budgeted $24 million in annual gross collections to remain self-funded, had collected approximately $21 million to date, and was collecting ahead of budget, with the proceeds returned to departments and the Jackson Health System.

Commissioner Gonzalez asked Ms. Tamayo to explain what the three percent figure was attributed to.

Dr. Edwards clarified that the departments had been asked to reduce their growth rather than their budgets. She explained that natural inflation was between eight and nine percent, that the Office of Management and Budget had initially projected seven percent growth, and that once the tax roll reflected general fund growth of only 4.2 percent, general fund departments were asked to reduce their growth to no more than three percent.

In response to Commissioner Gonzalez's question regarding what the department had cut to avoid the additional growth, Ms. Tamayo cited the elimination of unneeded vacancies, reductions in operating costs, and reductions in consulting costs where staff could perform the work.

Ms. Uppal attributed SPD's reductions to the 50 positions eliminated through the merger, additional proposed position eliminations and freezes, and reductions in other operating costs.
Both Ms. Uppal and Ms. Tamayo confirmed that their departments would grow by three percent.

Vice Chairwoman Milian Orbis asked Ms. Tamayo about the size of her department.

Ms. Tamayo stated that ICD had approximately 311 positions, including the incoming Risk Management Division, but that as of August 3 the department would lose the OES division, with approximately 36 positions, and the ETS division, with approximately 46 positions.

In response to Vice Chairwoman Milian Orbis' request for a breakdown between personnel and operating costs, Ms. Tamayo stated that personnel represented just over 50 percent of the budget and that operating costs were driven largely by consulting services for the ERP system.

Dr. Edwards advised that the transition-related changes might not be reflected in the budget published that afternoon and would instead appear in the change memorandum once the administration and the COCC finalized the number of employees and the funding to be transferred. She stated that the administration hoped to complete the transition by August 3, 2026, and that the changes would be reflected in the FY 2026-27 budget considered in September.

When Vice Chairwoman Milian Orbis asked for an estimate of the amount to be transferred, Dr. Edwards committed to providing the information as soon as the figure was finalized within the following week.

Vice Chairwoman Milian Orbis requested that the presentation be updated to show the anticipated shift out of the department and how ICD would look after the transition.

Ms. Tamayo agreed, and Dr. Edwards stated that the information would be provided.

Chairwoman Lopez asked both directors whether they had a schedule of remaining vacancies with an aging for each vacancy. Both confirmed that they did. She directed that the schedules be provided, noted that she was collecting them from every department presenting a budget, and stated that departments would need to justify any vacancy retained in their budgets for longer than 90 days.

Chairwoman Lopez asked Ms. Uppal to explain what procurement services SPD provided to the constitutional officers, noting that she had understood the constitutional officers to be conducting their own procurement.

Ms. Uppal stated that SPD handled all procurement for the Sheriff's Office and Elections, including procurements required under Florida Statutes, that it did no procurement for the Property Appraiser, and that the COCC had established its own procurement team.

Chairwoman Lopez requested the dollar value of the services SPD provided to the constitutional officers so that she could ask the officers what they were doing on their end.

Chairwoman Lopez asked when the STRIP recommendations would be presented to the Committee.

Ms. Uppal stated that she believed the recommendations would be presented the following week and deferred to Dr. Edwards on the timing.

Chairwoman Lopez stressed her interest in the task force's recommendations and in whether any savings had been identified.

Ms. Uppal responded that the task force had identified significant time savings but had not quantified them in dollars.

Chairwoman Lopez requested a listing of the systems Ms. Uppal had referenced that did not interface with one another, along with the systems that did, and she asked for an analysis by department showing when each system was purchased and whether it had been replaced because it failed to function, in order to evaluate the efficiency and continued funding of legacy systems.

Chairwoman Lopez asked whether any budgetary savings existed anywhere in either budget, explaining that at the State she had directed departments to reduce their budgets by three percent rather than reduce their growth.

Ms. Uppal responded that the elimination of 50 positions through the merger, some of which had been filled, represented approximately $5 million in savings.

In response to the Chairwoman's follow-up questions, Ms. Uppal stated that some of the affected employees had exercised rights to other positions.

Dr. Edwards explained that employees whose positions were eliminated held employment rights depending on their classification, that the Board had directed the administration to ensure the affected employees found positions, and that the elimination of funded and unfunded positions still produced savings because some employees left the County while others filled positions of need.

Chairwoman Lopez responded that the public deserved to know whether eliminated positions were vacancies and, for filled positions, how many employees left the County and how many were placed in other County positions. She stated that a reassignment based on employment rights was a transfer rather than a savings and that she would look for that level of detail throughout the budget process. She then asked whether the Clerk's budget, presented to the Committee on Monday, had contemplated the positions transferring from ICD.

Dr. Edwards stated that the Clerk's budget had not contemplated the move and that, from a general fund perspective, the transfer was a transition of people and money rather than a savings.

Chairwoman Lopez stated that the presentations did not provide what the Committee needed, that the transfer should have been disclosed without prompting, and that she was concerned by the lack of transparency in the details. She stated that every State department had been required to find at least three percent in savings and that she was confident savings could be found in the County budget. She pledged that the Committee would examine each department's budget in detail in the next budget cycle.

Commissioner Gonzalez echoed the Chairwoman's comments, noting that the departments were still growing by three percent rather than reducing spending. He asked both directors whether their departments could operate with zero percent growth, using the same budget as the prior year.

Dr. Edwards responded that the budget included a pre-negotiated four percent cost-of-living adjustment and collective bargaining step increases averaging five percent, which together with inflation produced average baseline growth of approximately nine percent before any enhancements. She explained that departments had first cut vacant positions to reach the seven percent projection and then were asked to cut further to reach three percent when revenue growth came in at 4.2 percent, and that the departments had determined what they would no longer do. She stated that the department directors had been asked not to get ahead of the County Mayor and the Office of Management and Budget and that the administration welcomed the Committee as a partner in identifying reductions once the budget was published.

Commissioner Gonzalez acknowledged the administration's work and stated that the County's projections were always for growth rather than savings. He suggested that the Committee bring departments before it after the budget was published so that members could help identify reductions, noting that some departments might warrant reductions while others might require growth.

Chairwoman Lopez stated that the State had not only saved money but had built reserves, and that the County should be saving for the potential revenue reduction from the property tax constitutional amendment.

Commissioner Cohen Higgins stated that the County's fiscal climate required that things be done differently and that the era of abundant revenue was over. She noted that the budget dashboard previously presented to the Committee was ready and that she intended to use it during this and future budget cycles. She reported that the budget chief had confirmed on Monday that nothing in the budget contemplated a yes vote on the November referendum. She stated that the approximately nine percent growth described as natural was contracted growth resulting from cost-of-living adjustments the Board had previously approved. She stated that savings were a reasonable expectation given the size of the County budget and recommended that the Committee conduct its review through special meetings or special committees rather than extended budget hearings.

Chairwoman Lopez stated that she would ask the Chairman for authority to call special meetings to review each department's budget.

Vice Chairwoman Milian Orbis requested a breakdown of the percentage of County employees who were unionized, excluding the Airport, Seaport, and Jackson Health System, and focusing on the departments with the greatest impact on the general fund. She stated that declining to open the bargaining contracts this year was a mistake and that difficult decisions should not be deferred at the expense of employees.

Mr. Coley advised that the administration had met with all bargaining units, including the Police Benevolent Association, with which no agreement had been reached, and that the other unions had agreed to no cost-of-living adjustment for the year. He stated that all contracts were signed, that the agreements were reached in anticipation of the November election, and that the contracts contained a January reopener under which merit increases and other terms would be revisited.

In response to Vice Chairwoman Milian Orbis' questions regarding cost-of-living adjustments, Dr. Edwards stated that the adjustment effective April 2026 was four percent, that no adjustment had been budgeted for April 2027, and that the contracts were closed without a financial commitment because a decrease in compensation might be necessary if the property tax proposal took effect. She confirmed that the same adjustment applied to bargaining and non-bargaining employees.

Vice Chairwoman Milian Orbis stated that the Committee should examine whether the growth described as natural was necessary.

Dr. Edwards agreed, stating that the three, three, and four percent adjustments had been policy decisions made three years earlier before the current circumstances were understood.

Vice Chairwoman Milian Orbis urged the administration to begin planning now for the passage of expanded homestead exemptions rather than waiting for the next budget cycle.

Commissioner Gonzalez added that leading candidates for governor were contemplating homestead exemption changes regardless of the referendum's outcome and that the County had an opportunity to reduce government even if the amendment failed. He stated that he looked forward to working with the administration in the coming weeks and into August.

Chairwoman Lopez concluded that constituents were tightening their budgets and that the County should lead by doing the same. She stated that the Committee would work closely with the administration to identify savings in each department's budget, as was done at the State.
