Well more ways to see my money go...
The Delaware River Port Authority is going to raise fares
a buck in Sept, then another buck in 2010. They are also make it so every 2 years, they get cost of living increases automatically!!
For me the worst part is the EZ-Pass commuter discount will be phased out in the next 2 years.
I was getting a $18/ month discount. Now, no discount and I will keep paying more.
This is the part that galls me:
"Since 1999, it has spent $375 million to help build the Kvaerner (now Aker) Philadelphia Shipyard, Lincoln Financial Field, the Kimmel Center, the National Constitution Center, the Camden aquarium, and the Riversharks' stadium; to spruce up Admiral Wilson Boulevard in Camden; to invest in a still-unbuilt tram across the river; and to boost dozens of other projects.
In February, the bistate agency approved spending $10 million to help build a soccer stadium complex on the Chester waterfront.
The hearings will be held:

Mark,
I understand your fustrations and agree with you. Spending taxes on projects listed just doesn't seem quite right. They should divert some of that money to the Arts District in Millville to assist the artist's that are experiencing financial distress.
I understand that the new traffic pattern proposals will completely bypass High Street. How does that benefit the Art's District?
