The Developer paid the first $100,000 to install the light, the District paid the balance.
I took this to be a new expenditure, not the light that was put in place in 2014.

I believe that light is on District property so neither the State nor County would be involved.

Hopefully, the District and County are looking into a similar light near St Catherine.

EDIT: I just read the article about a supervisor arguing against the light on Colony Blvd. It turns out his prediction was wrong and the light is helping the situation. I travel through there often and am thankful for that light. Again, I hope they find a way to install one down near Sawgrass.
