SUBJECT:
Authorization to execute Master Services Agreement with BEEFREE, LLC in the amount of $400,000 for a mobile application-based transportation services pilot program.
SUMMARY:
As identified in the 4-point action plan, the vision for the FPRA includes connecting the neighborhoods, amenities and destinations. Providing mobility options increases economic activity and an improved quality of life.
The Fort Pierce Redevelopment Area is characterized by its expansive gridded neighborhood network and a close proximity to downtown and the waterfront. This network provides an opportunity to connect the neighborhoods to downtown, the waterfront, to arts, historical and cultural destinations and employment centers.
Goal 15 of the FPRA Redevelopment Plan states, "The Fort Pierce Redevelopment Agency shall connect the Redevelopment Area’s cultural and artistic Hubs (Downtown, Marina, Fisherman’s Wharf, Beachside District, Lincoln Park and Peacock Arts Districts) to the Waterfront’s artistic and cultural amenities."
