Message: [QUOTE="TexanMark, post: 2442233, member: 35"] The state just spent almost $100M building a brand new factory that sits vacant. I'm tired of the State picking winners and losers with our money. The winners most of the time...never fulfill their promises of jobs and so it goes. At least the tunnel/grid option would benefit everyone. Congel could make some serious hay if he promises to kick in a $1M extra a year to the city for 10 years. In essence he would be just giving back the taxpayers money. The ball is in his court. If the tunnel isn't built his Mall gets hurt bigly. Ten years of construction would definitely have an impact on the economy...and long term too. This is a federal highway...the $10M a year wouldn't be funded by just the City. [/QUOTE]
