4:07 PM	ETC(08)	Road Rehabilitation Program
The recommendation to spend $7.3 million on road rehabilitation projects is abhorant, and proves once again that London’s rhetoric about alternative transportaion is a lie. Compare this proposed expenditure with the total annual Warranted Walkway Lighting portion of the Street Lighting Improvements budget (TS5121) of only $20K, and the total annual Warranted Sidewalks budget (TS1163) of only $230K.
