I have been closely following the funding debate, and I have noticed something very disturbing on the WISDOT website:
http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/localgov/highways/localstimulus.htm Yesterday, the TE and CMAQ stimulus project applications were not available - it was suggested that they would be available at some point on the 10th - now that date has changed to the 11th. Keep in mind that these local stimulus project applications are due next Wednesday, so the longer the state drags its feet on posting the applications, the less likely it is that cities, towns, and villages will be able to complete the application in the time remaining. I have to wonder if the differences between the House and Senate version of the stimulus bill are behind this delay. It would really be sad to see the enhancement funding end up in the final bill, but the state not utilize any of it because they didn't have time to solicit local project applications. > -------- Original Message -------- > Subject: [Bikies] Action Alert on Economic Recovery Bill > From: Dar Ward <[email protected]> > Date: Wed, February 11, 2009 8:14 am > To: [email protected] > My apologies if this notice has already gone out...I don't always read bikies. > -Dar > > URGENT ACTION ALERT FOR APBP MEMBERS IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA > > Support Bicycle and Pedestrian Projects in the Economic Recovery Bill > > _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.danenet.org/listinfo.cgi/bikies-danenet.org
