Meeting for the last time in the Bar year, the Board of Governors on Friday approved a revised, $43.2 million budget proposal, a raft of proposed rule amendments, and recommendations for enhancing Florida’s board certification program.

Addressing fellow board members in a Key West conference room, Budget Committee Chair-elect Jeffrey Rynor noted that the FY 2024-25 spending plan, contrary to the only member objection, maintains a 23-year trend of no new member fees.

The member “is of the opinion that we should raise Bar dues,” Rynor said. “No modification has been made for this objection.”
