Glades Cut Off Road signal safety and cost-sharing

Summary

The signal at Commerce Centre Drive and Glades Cut Off Road still runs in flashing mode because FEC wants $542,702 to tie it into its rail system. The board agreed to chip in up to a third (~$181,000) to get the light functional at a dangerous intersection near a school, and wants Port St. Lucie to cover future maintenance.
