As to the debate on RAIL as to how much of the project should be built, the FTA at this point in time, say that it won't determine how much of the $1.5 billion in federal funding it will disburse to the HART until it evaluates a recovery plan to be submitted by Aug. 7, 2016, outlining how much of the 20-mile rail route it can expect to complete with its current amount of funding. Looking at previous requests from other states, it seems that the FTA told them to find their own funds to complete their projects. I would NOT/Could NOT TAX our people anymore for this RAIL to nowhere. As to alternatives, let the City decide.. ENUF already!
