Hope the next Texas Legislature takes notice.

TXDOT is whoring for PPPs.

Three years, $20 million, 5.2 acres. Somebody, or perhaps, several sombodies, will be living high on the hog until 2011 or longer.

And I thought it was just NC that raided the highway funds for overspending. Good Roads state indeed!

My yard is bigger than 5 acres. I didn't spend anywhere near 20 million planting trees and making flower beds in my park-like yard.

This park, with a restaurant, children's playground, and dog walk sounds like it will be very cramped, and not very "park like" at all. Seems like a large price tag for a small building, some trees from the local nursery, a bit of sod, a jungle gym, and pea gravel for a pathway.

TXDOT is lying about being broke so that the voters will capitulate and approve the Spanish toll road supported by their clueless politicians in Austin.
With $115/bbl. oil dollars flooding into state coffers, we ought to be asking where all that loot is going, if not into our roads. And by the way, why is gas $3.30 in Texas, but $3.05 in New Jersey?
Drivers in the US are stuck on stupid in this “energy crisis” in which there is a surplus of gas and demand is dwindling.

Gotta spruce up downtown Dallas in anticipation of the new library and it's name sake.....
