Question from a resident: I’ve lived here for 26 years, and the roads are worse than I’ve ever seen (examples: Bird of Paradise Road and the I95/SR100 intersection). I hear we have no money for road improvements, and that’s pretty hard for me to believe. Can’t we use the impact fees from all the new homes being built here? Aren’t there other resources?  What’s the plan?
