…body
EXPLANATION: Wellington received a Transportation Alternatives Program grant from the Palm Beach County Metropolitan Planning Organization in 2015 (FM# 438306-1). This grant provides funding for an eight-foot wide multi-purpose path to connect Bink’s Forest Drive to Flying Cow Ranch Road. This path lies within an FP&L easement, and therefore requires a consent agreement between FP&L and Wellington to allow use within the easement. Resolution No. R2017-36 will authorize the mayor to execute this agreement.
