It argues taxpayers would pay 1.25 million dollars upfront with 350 thousand yearly to elevate tracks for 14 years, amid growth to 400,000 residents and inadequate Union Station. It urges immediate citizen protest and questions elected officials. The piece ends by noting Senate duties under Aldrich.
