COMMISSIONER MICHELLE LINCOLN APPOINTED TO STATE’S TRANSPORTATION PLAN STEERING COMMITTEE

MONROE COUNTY, FL— Monroe County Commissioner Michelle Lincoln was appointed to the Florida Department of Transportation’s Florida Transportation Plan (FTP) Steering Committee.

The steering committee consists of other key partners and stakeholders who will guide the development of the goals, objectives, and policies that will make up the FTP supported by focus groups comprised of industry partners and stakeholders designed to address more targeted discussions on specific goals and objectives included in the plan.

“This is a great opportunity for Monroe County to be represented statewide on this committee,” said Lincoln.
