ORLANDO — Despite a less than enthusiastic green light from Volusia County Chair Ed Kelley, the commission that oversees SunRail reaffirmed its revived effort to pursue millions in federal funding for an extension north to DeLand.
Nicola Liquori, SunRail’s CEO, said she expects to know by the end of August whether the Florida Department of Transportation will get the money needed — in the neighborhood of $34 million — to cover the federal share of the project.
