Summary Explanation/Background
The City of Pompano Beach staff reached out to Broward County Transportation (BCT) staff to investigate relocating an existing east side bus stop located on county right-of-way north of the 700 Block on South Cypress Road to a new location approximately 530 feet north and adjacent to the Sergeant Kip Jacoby Park and Norwood Pine Park located at 600 South Cypress Road, in Pompano Beach.

All documents have been reviewed and approved as to form by the Office of the County Attorney.
