WATCH LIVE ON SPACE COAST DAILY TV: meeting begins at 5 p.m.
ABOVE VIDEO: The Brevard County Commission will hold a meeting in Viera on Tuesday and decide on funding of the Tourist Development Council Cultural Support Grant Program, which includes 24 grants totaling more than $500,000 that will begin with the new fiscal year Oct. 1.
Rep. Randy Fine has brought attention to Space Coast Pride’s Pridefest event, which is eligible for grant funds, due to the organization’s presentation of “Drag Queen Story Time.”
“I just learned that the County Commission vote next week will be to directly fund Drag Queen Story Time in downtown Melbourne using your tax dollars. If you do not believe we should have government-sponsored child grooming activities, please let your County Commissioner know,” said Fine.
The meeting will begin at 5 p.m. and can be seen live on Space Coast Daily TV.
