Meeting Date:
October 18, 2000
Division:
County Attorney
AGENDA ITEM WORDING:
Discussion of investigating the feasibility of converting the Boot Key Bridge to a toll
facility to fund the operation and maintenance thereof. .'.
ITEM BACKGROUND:
The City of Marathon has refused to accept the ownership and responsibility for the
Boot Key Bridge yet the City receives the gas tax revenues that the County would
use to fund transportation facilities (including the bridge) within Marathon. The
County is thus now left with an expensive bridge and no revenue stream to pay for
it. The BOCC previously decided to leave the bridge upright until a solution could be
found.
