I agree, and I think that is what they are doing. But is there time for that to play out properly? When does this bid have to be decided on?
Because there is no way in hell I would support it on the 'hopes' that everyone comes together with a little more funding and does it right.
The right thing to do is make a proper proposal, so that you can get sufficient federal support for the new structures that you want/need.
