LYNX
Mayor Jerry Demings included a
one-cent sales tax that would have
generated an estimated $596 million
annually for transportation
funding. The county suspended
pursuit of the transportation
sales tax referendum due to the
uncertainty brought about by the
pandemic. However, Mayor Demings
committed to revisiting the
referendum post pandemic with
the possibility that it could be
ready for a November 2022 vote.
" Dedicated funding would
be an absolute game changer for
LYNX and for transit in the Central
Florida region in general, "
said Harrison. " Transit is a core
need for the success of the region.
Not only do we serve our tourists,
but we also provide essential service
for our workers and LYNX
provides an excellent service. I'm
very proud of what we do, but, by
far, the most common concern we
hear is about frequency and the
only answer to that is funding. "
Current Projects
Delivered Through
Partnerships
Harrison notes the financial assistance
provided by the federal
government through the three
pandemic relief bills that included
the transit industry has had a
critical impact on LYNX's ability
to maintain operations through
the pandemic and enhance the
safety of workers and riders.
He explains LYNX created a
stabilization fund with oversight
of the agency's board of directors
to help stabilize and mitigate impacts
of what is believed will be a
prolonged economic downturn.
This has provided the budgetary
balance needed to LYNX so it
could continue with several longplanned
improvements, such as
LED Lighting Systems
