On September 3, 2014, the City Commission approved the plans for the Hollywood Boulevard roadway corridor between Dixie Highway and City Hall Circle. Upon review of the eligible projects to receive funding from the Broward Metropolitan Planning Organization (“BMPO”), the City submitted the approved design development plans to BMPO and the Florida Department of Transportation (“FDOT”) to begin final construction drawings and project implementation.
Funding for these projects was provided through the $6,800,000.00 Complete Streets fund from the BMPO; and the City committed to provide future funding, in the estimated amount of $600,000.00 to implement the landscape, irrigation, and site furnishing elements of the project.
On March 16, 2021, the City signed the Second Amendment to Restatement of the Transportation System Surtax Interlocal Agreement, which allowed the City to receive funds from the Broward County Mobility Advancement Program.
On September 15, 2021, the Interlocal Agreement between Broward County and the City of Hollywood for the Municipal Transportation Project - Hollywood Blvd. from the east end of City Hall Circle to Dixie Highway Complete Streets was executed in the total amount of $700,000.00; which will require the City to provide a financial contribution to be calculated on the difference between the $700,000.00 surtax funds and the final awarded bid price plus City’s contingency and additional agency fees.
