SR 417 Sanford Airport Connector Funding
Summary
The Board quietly moved $25 million in infrastructure sales tax money to the Central Florida Expressway Authority for the SR 417 Sanford Airport Connector, which Commissioner Constantine noted passed the CFX board unanimously last week. County money was needed to pass the feasibility study, and Commissioner Zembower highlighted the relief it will bring to Lake Mary Boulevard access.
