TEU committee approves $6 million appropriation and FDOT agreement for Dun and Braddock intersection (5-0)

The Transportation, Energy and Utilities Committee approved an amendment and then voted to advance a bill amending funding and attaching a corrected agreement with the Florida Department of Transportation for the Dun and Braddock intersection project.

Edward Linsky of the council auditor’s office explained the amendment, saying it revised and attached the corrected FDOT agreement to reflect the full $6,000,000 appropriation toward construction of the intersection. The chair called the vote; the committee recorded the amendment as passed and later the bill as amended passed with a recorded tally of "5 yays, 0 nays."

The committee did not record a named mover or seconder for the motion in the transcript. Linsky described the amendment as updating the FDOT agreement to match the appropriated amount and authorizing FDOT to construct the project under that agreement. Committee members offered no substantive opposition on the record and the item moved forward to the next procedural stage.
