What money in the gulf we are going to get from the oil companies. We wouldnot get any. Beside if I remember correctly that was shot down in the legislature, it never got out of the Senate. Which my self am happy about.But lets not get in a political war here lets face what we are going to have to face and the fact is the economy is not good at all and there is a short fall in revenue (taxes) so a lot of stuff will not be funded. That is all Iam saying.

I have been working for and around thelegislature for 30 years and I have seen the very, very very good times, Ihave seen the good times, I have seen the fair times, I have seen the not so good times, I have seen the bad times, I have seen the very bad times and if I am lucky enough to be around I will see the very, very, very bad times. But hoping it want get to that for me to see. I know politics inside and out I have did it most all my life. Believe me when I say things are going to get worst for everyone especially people with disabilities. Especially disabilities not consider severe. Also state workers are going to be hurtingalso. The stimulus money is gone now we have to face reality. We The Stateof Florida is about 3 billion short from last year. Now where are they going to get 3 billion dollars? The one that will suffer is the ones that does not have the powerful lobbyist working for them. Oh guess what we don't have this. This being said I hope a miracle happens and we come up with about 20billion extra for the budget but don't hold your breath. Just my thoughts.Thanks, Blackjack misterblackjack2@xxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: tabi-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:tabi-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Lynn Evans Sent: Monday, October 12, 2009 4:35 PM To: tabi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [tabi] Re: Nova Plan Oh gloom & doom There is all kinds of reports on NPR about the recession or what ever you call the thing is over and things will start getting better. That is except for the people going back to work. This is always the last to recover after a downturn. You must be getting your news reports from Fox News. I was referring to the stimulus money that is going around.

I don't think there is now. The State of Florida saysthey are going to have to deal with almost 3 billion dollar short fall. If you don't think this is not going to impact the city and county budget and transportations budget think again. We still have the worst a head of us inthis as they call it a economic down turn. Down turn is not even going to begin to describe what is going to happen in the near future. It is goingto be a full blown Depression. I don't like it but I am sure they are going totry and budget a lot of the short fall on the back of employees. They are also going to cut things to the core watch what I tell you. Audio signalsyes will be nice but getting them in this economy don't think it is coming any time soon. Just my thoughts.

Also one time when I was talking with traffic engineering, I was told to just let them know if we need another audible signals, because there is plenty of money in the budget.

I just don't know if it will have the money in the budget for this. These things cost a lot of money. Just some thoughts to ponder.

As many of you know, not only did Sam Scheib come to our TCB meeting, but he brought the entire team to put down rumors and take suggestions for the new plan. What follows is what I can think of now, but there will be lots more to come. With MiccosukeeHills,, I made the suggestion that they compromise and instead of stopping on the road, where there is a ditch, and driving all threw the complex,at least pulling into the parking lot where folks could come and meat the bus. He immediately thought that would be a good suggestion for a compromise. I also asked about the governors Square Mall, I pointed out that just by virtue that there is handicapped parking up close to the building, that the state and federal government know the danger of walking threw un controlled traffic. Again he said he would take that to heart and had his secretary write it down. After Sam left our meeting he called and told us that he had been working on our suggestions and had one of his own. He is per posing putting in audible signals at every place where there is a transfer that requires crossing the street. Folks, this amounts to sum 39 audible signals and I think it is something to be commended. You all know that White Cane Days is coming up on Thursday and Sally and my Tallassee chapter of Lions are going to be out in forse. We will be carrying signs at Magnolia and call, as well as Capital Circle and Mahan. We will have sleep shades for members and others to use to cross the street and I have plenty of white canes for them to experience. Sam's public relations person along with our Lions president, Ray Maloy will be inviting the media. They have already contacted the police department and they have shown a willingness to work with Star Metro on traffic issues. I think this new bus plan has left us with a great opportunity to get some concessions before we are left behind. It has come after years of hard work and you our blind citizens are the ones to thank. Please let us all know if you hear any new news on this subject and we will all be working together, rather than pulling against each other. PS, Sam and his team will be back to TCB after the first of the year and staying as partners in this. William William Benjamin, Piano Tuner Extraordinaire. The tuner alone preserves the tone.
