It was obvious that we couldn't pay all of former Gov. Cecil s bills, but even so, there were complaints. Some places continued to get more than their share. We re just as deserving as everybody else. Yes he did. Although no elected official will say out loud that the Corridor H boondoggle is draining money that could be better spent elsewhere, you might say the cat is out of the bag.
New figures are in.
Six years ago, you ll recall, the EPA did a cost-benefit analysis of Corridor H using the highway department s lowball estimate. That truth-telling cost the Regional Director his job. Since then, Corridor H has been broken into stand-alone sections. Each part must justify its costs. As the figures keep changing and the money gets tighter, there will be more opportunities to say some roads should not be built.
