Wait a minute — a full engineering study was done a few years ago and a plan was announced to replace this bridge with a causeway, just to the west, on the protected bay side. Then, of course, nothing happened.
So now we gonna do another $2 million study? With, of course, a $400K “contingency” add-on, which we all know the consultants have already rung up on their cash registers. Really?
If the story is correct, we’re approving payment for this engineering firm to oversee construction over the next 24 months for a bridge that has not been designed, planned or any funds provided for construction. Anybody wanna bet that a new Glass Window Bridge will magically appear in 24 months? Anybody?
Dr. Sands speaks of the “rapid spread” of this infection in the United States. Uh ... as of today there are 5 cases identified in the United States, a nation of 330,000,000, and a nation that has a considerable amount of travel interaction with China.
Concern is warranted, but stupid, panicked remarks are not.

I agree it is a “cause for concern” — but the claim of a “rapid spread” of this virus in the U.S. is pure fiction.
