Got it! I was more making sure... Why? Check out different grants and programs. Example: Complete Streets (the one that offers bike lanes on roads too congested for cars.... )
Engineering companies go in front of planning boards and advertise it.
It happened in Halifax. I missed the introduction of the presenter one eve. (I had work and was 2 minutes late to the meeting)
I had read the grant, fully!
After the presentation, I started asking questions...
The Presenter, a pretty woman, did not have any answers. I said, are you not from the state? She said, I am from blank blank engineer company in Rhode Island.
why does this matter?
first, there is a $38,000 obligation fee to apply
then, to be eligible for up to $400,000 in a grant pay out (if it is FUNDED. Its up to, not including $400,000. Most towns awarded looked at pay outs of $60,000 to $150,000.)
15 Projects need to be engineered. yes, 15. guess what, they have to be cherry on top not the ice cream base projects. Meaning, not your street work needed.... but adding sidewalks, trails through the woods (now buy the land if you do not already own it), bike lanes (on streets that have guidelines to be built without widening them...) and the like.
15 Projects... so let us say that it it would cost $20k (which is low to engineer some projects)
30 x $15 = $450,000
lets say you get a discount... and its less...
let us use $10k = $300,000.
Can we talk about the math?
guess what funding can be used _________________________________
Chapter 90 money. Do you know what that is for?
And guess what, after all that math that does not even make sense...
using the chapter 90 money we so desperately need for our ______________________.
The worst part!!!! Ready?
Implementation plan states: Now Mass DOT can change any, Yes, it says ANY of your laws.
"The very last page of the Global Partners ethics complaint against an MBTA staffer in the rest stop lease dispute is an anonymously authored, Russell Crowe-beautiful mind-inspired conspiracy theory chart that implies an unproven web of revolving door influence, personal relationships, corruption and big money related to Applegreen, MassDOT, Suffolk Construction, the lobbying firm Smith, Costello & Crawford and various current and former government officials."
Hi John, I am curious, do you believe it can be true?
I said the chart was "unproven" so, yes, it can be true. It'll be fun to find out. Clearly Global Partners believes that the chart offers value or they would not have included it in their official state ethics commission complaint, which is what made it newsworthy to report upon, notwithstanding its unproven status.
