Leon County Commissioners will discuss eliminating funding for the Council on Culture and Arts (COCA). COCA is a local nonprofit organization that funds year-round arts programming. Executive Director Kathleen Spehar warns this funding cut could cause layoffs and reduce services. County staff recommends transferring COCA's grant programs to the county’s Division of Tourism. This change aims to save costs and protect against future financial pressures.
