MOTION TO DIRECT Office of the County Attorney to draft a proposed Resolution amending Chapter 41.01 of the Broward County Administrative Code to provide for free bus fares, with proof of voter identification, on November 3rd, 2018 during early voting for the 2018 county-wide general election. (Mayor Furr)
ACTION: (T-2:36 PM) Approved. The Board requested that outreach be provided to the public as to free bus fares, as well as requested ridership comparisons. (Scrivener’s Error – See County Administrator’s Report: Currently reads: Fiscal Impact/Cost Summary: The average Saturday fare total collected is $43,000. Should read: Fiscal Impact/Cost Summary: The average Saturday fare total collected is $43,000 on fixed-route bus, and $2,366 on Paratransit.) (Refer to minutes for full discussion.)
VOTE: 8-0. Commissioner Rich was not present during the vote.
