Our local paper reported on our piece of pork today and also stated the original estimate of $28M has now jumped to $33M. This little gem is for an underground tunnel for off-loading ferry traffic in the podunk town of Bremerton.
From the article: "U.S. Rep. Norm Dicks, D-Belfair, said any increase in price would be covered by more federal appropriations."
"If it's a couple million over, we'll come up with a couple million more. Whatever it takes, we're going to do it. We're committed."
Just across the water is Seattle, which has been rated as one of worst cities for transportation gridlock. Spend that pork, Normie.
