Background:
The County has executed interlocal agreements with most Alachua County incorporated cities. The City of Archer originally proposed to construct a gymnasium through the program. However, that project is no longer feasible, so they are pursuing a splash park instead.
The only municipality who has not yet entered into an Interlocal Agreement is the Town of Micanopy.
