  • Review Expressway Authority Lease
    The Florida Senate Issue Brief 2011-227 October 2010 Committee on Transportation TOLL FACILITY LEASE-PURCHASE AGREEMENTS Statement of the Issue The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT or department) has, over the years, entered into lease-purchase agreements with legislatively-approved expressway and bridge authorities throughout the state. Under lease- purchase agreements, FDOT may provide financial support to pay the operations and maintenance costs for an authority‟s toll facilities, thereby enabling the gross toll revenues collected by the authority to be primarily used to pay its facilities‟ bond debt. Reimbursement to FDOT is typically not required until after the authority has met its debt service requirements. Upon completion of the lease-purchase agreement, ownership of the facility may be transferred back to the State and FDOT retains all operations and maintenance responsibility. Currently, Florida expressway and bridge authorities owe more than $379 million to FDOT under the terms of lease-purchase agreements. Discussion Toll facilities have been used throughout Florida as a means of financing road and bridge construction for many years. Very early in the state‟s history, most toll roads and bridges were constructed by private individuals or firms. Later, state governmental units began constructing toll facilities. In more recent years, toll facilities have been financed and constructed by specially created units of government operating primarily under local government control. These units, usually characterized as expressway or bridge authorities, arrange for construction of the facilities, including the required debt financing. In addition to FDOT which has a long history of planning, acquiring, constructing, operating, and maintaining toll facilities, there are numerous other authorities currently operating toll facilities and collecting and reinvesting toll revenues.
