Ginger Watkins, professional organizer, Boca Grande: "Until there is a plan with community support, including a designated use of all new toll revenue, I do not support increases of any toll or tax."

Dick Ryan, retired turnaround consultant, Boca Grande: "I personally think relative to today's $4, about $6 would be a top level."

Julius Frager, retired manufacturing CEO, Boca Grande: "It's kind of hard to justify our tolls ever exceeding the $6 Sanibel Island is charging."
