Way back in April, I posted a story about the state's plan to lease Alligator Alley to a private contractor for 50 years in return for a lump-sum cash payment. The tolls could go up to $3.75 beginning in July of 2009, and then beginning January 2011, the tolls would rise each January 3% or the rate of inflation, whichever is greater. Next week, public hearings will be held in Davie and Naples; the Davie meeting is November 13th in the Liberal Arts Building Auditorium at Florida Atlantic University's Davie Campus (2912 College Avenue). It begins with an open house at 6p, followed by the hearing at 7p.
So the question becomes, how many times over have we paid for the alley?
