Mr. Wayne Johnson stated that he and Mr. Dick Kluzak introduced the concept of the toll bridge to the City. Most counties in this area have gone on record in support of a bridge to be built ~t0 lessen some of the traffic burden.

He stated that this Council and the past City Council has expressed an interest in the bridge. He felt the task force should have more me, Cringes and Dayton should have a chance for further review. Mr. Schroeder noted this is nots rash and that it makes sense to let Dayton proceed with their process.
