the $40M road

"I was just told within the week," Mayor Kim said, "by Public Works, that surveying on that Highway 132 is completed. And we can start on ground surveying. We had estimated that highway alone will cost us approximately $40 million."
...

"Pohoiki Road, as you know, is a County Road. The reimbursement is, I think, maximum 75 percent," Kim said. "Our estimate of that road will be approximately $30 million dollars. And we hope to start that surveying in those things as soon as we get well underway on Highway 132."


By some amazing coincidence, the "necessary" road work is slightly more than the $60M allocated by the Legislature.

More surveys required to "determine the needs of the residents", of course.

He says that the surveying has completed then immediately after says they can start the ground surveying?

How about they simply start with the same thing they did to open Pohoiki? Worry about paving it, later.

A mere $1M project isn't worth the Mayor's time.
