7.7 Million for Public Relations
Let's see, we got so far into debt building light rail in San Jose that we couldn't meet the monthly payments on the bonds. So we cut back transit service and lost 35 percent of our riders. What should we do next?
I've got it: Let's pay a public relations firm $7.7 million to tell everybody what a good job we are doing! As a first priority, we will have them sell the idea of building a BART line to San Jose, even though we don't have enough money to build it because we are spending the money the voters approved for that line to operate the bare-bones system we have left after cut backs.
