Thank you Tom, for putting the time frame and process of the state legislators into perspective. Indeed, we are no further along as citizen taxpayers than we were before, but we are up to date on the State game. We know how the city council has okayed the floating of $350,000 bonds by a 6/3 vote-just enough to get them through. Now we face HART as they appear spell bound to continue on with new comer to the board, Ember Shinn, refusing to have another audit that might cost about $250,000 bucks and doesn't want to "look back" but just move forward.
People seem helpless in so many areas that I'd like to make several suggestions: 1-Phone and email your respective legislators in both the senate and house and express your discontent. Let them know you have signed a www.audit the rail petition to force HART to undergo a FORENSIC audit to expose waste, abuse and FRAUD! Pass this info on to as many people as possible. It's not brain surgery to get this info on the internet, but pass it on.
