Proposal For S. Florida Regional Transit Authority

11 May 2001 - 2:00pm

Efforts are underway to create a single agency for mass transit in Florida's Broward, Palm Beach and Miami-Dade counties.

"A proposal to combine all mass transit in Broward, Palm Beach and Miami-Dade counties into one agency may be getting on track after several false starts over the years...The authority eventually could combine bus and rail systems in the three counties and go after federal and state matching dollars or issue bonds, or raise taxes to pay for costly mass transit improvements."

Under the proposal, the government would assign the populace the task of counting and mapping dog droppings as a first step to greater penalties for owners who fail to clean up after their mutts.
