Brevard County Board of County Commissioners · 2026-09-15 · agenda_item

The Brevard County Board of County Commissioners is considering the implementation of a new motor fuel tax. This tax would include a ninth-cent unleaded motor fuel tax and a local option unleaded motor fuel gas tax ranging from 1 to 5 cents. The purpose of this initiative is to generate revenue for county projects and services. This item is currently under review, meaning there is an opportunity for input and planning before final decisions are made. The implementation of this tax could lead to various infrastructure and public works projects funded by the collected revenue. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to stay informed about this developing agenda item. Engaging early, before specific projects and funding allocations are finalized, can provide a competitive advantage.
