Officials in Santa Rosa County, Fla., are keen on the idea of erecting Florida’s tallest flagpole, eclipsing the 200-foot flagpole in Clearwater which currently holds that distinction.

What they may not be so keen on, however, is the price tag.

Santa Rosa County commissioners recently opened bids submitted for the proposed flag project, which calls for the flagpole and accompanying giant U.S. flag to be erected in the City of Milton, perhaps outside a county-owned building in the downtown area, according to the Pensacola News Journal.

But to do it will cost in the neighborhood of $300,000.

The lowest of the two bids received came in at $291,070, while the other was for $301,653.

The lower bid broke down the cost, which includes:

• $165,150 for a 227-foot flag pole
• $110,250 for one-day installation
• $1,600 for lights to illuminate the flag at night
• $9,500 for the flag

Once erected, there would be 207 feet of flagpole above the ground, surpassing the 200-foot flagpole at a Harley-Davidson dealership in Clearwater, which is currently the state’s tallest, according to the PNJ.

Commissioner James Calkins has led the charge for the flagpole, with support from fellow commissioner and chairman Sam Parker. The News Journal reported three other commissioners seem uncertain on the idea.

When the idea was first floated during a February meeting, commissioner Ray Eddington suggested the money could instead be spent on things like roads and infrastructure. His comment was greeted by applause from some in attendance, according to the PNJ.

Others have suggested local citizens could band together to raise the funds needed for the giant pole.

It’s possible the county could use proceeds from a local tourism bed tax to cover the cost, although some have questioned exactly how a giant flag pole qualifies as a “tourist attraction.”
