The estimates were done by a third party...the mayor has no influence on it. I guess you're implying the mayor could have pushed to make sure the "expensive" option was recommended so it looked worse than it would be?
Yup, the do nothing option in the report includes $70 million of property acquisition along CHB. It's a lot of land that would be required.
