Mayor Sharon Weston Broome and Metro Council members will host a series of public meetings to provide information regarding the proposed infrastructure enhancement and traffic mitigation plan called MOVEBR, the city-parish announced today.
The plan, announced by Broome last month, includes more than 60 projects totalling more than $1.1 billion and would be paid for by a proposed half-cent sales tax expected to raise about $912 million.
The Metro Council will vote Aug. 8 on whether to put the tax proposal on the December ballot. Â
