Background
The City is considering whether to develop the Rhode Island Extension as a City-led project or in coordination with Volusia County as a County-led project. A City-led project gives the City full control over design, schedule, and maintenance but relies primarily on City funding. A County-led project could provide additional funding and shift long term maintenance responsibility to the County, but the City would have less control over design and timing. Commission direction will guide staff on which approach to pursue.
