The Florida Department of Transportation (“FDOT”) plans to replace the Unnamed Branch Bridge over Joe White Road in Bonifay, Florida, which is located in Holmes County. As an additional step in the progress of this project, FDOT has recently released 90% construction plans. These more complete construction plans indicate that FDOT plans to acquire 4 parcels of Holmes County property, and do so, FDOT has budgeted $80,000 in right-of-way acquisition fund for fiscal year 2020.
