Smoke and mirrors. What a waste. This is a bold attempt to hold on to a small voting block. Spend Spend Spend for a bus on a rail. If you want to make downtown more attractive, a parking garage or two is needed. With the bottle necks recently created, it takes more time to get into downtown and a case of urban road-rage to move through the city. The Counsel has created another reason to stay away from downtown. Why does the northwest, east side and now the southwest side grow? It is ease of traffic and a more modern road system. Put the bikes on the bike paths and modernize the private vehicle. Personal conveyances are the only modes of transportation that will allow the city to grow.
