A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO SIGN A LETTER OF SUPPORT FOR THE CITY OF GULF SHORES

 

Summary

Description of Topic: (who, what, where, when, why and how much)

The City of Gulf Shores is requesting to install a new traffic signal at the intersection of Coastal Gateway Blvd. (County Road 8 East) and the Foley Beach Express and we acknowledge that this signal will not compromise the integrity of the Foley Beach Express. The City of Foley is not the Permitting Agency for this section of the FBE, but we expect to benefit from a reduction in traffic on CR 12 between SR 59 and the FBE due to this additional connection. The City of Gulf Shores is asking for a Letter of Support from the City of Foley.
