One email to screw them all...

PBP reports:
The federal transportation stimulus money that's supposed to create jobs the fastest is being held up in Florida by Palm Beach County.
Ouch. Why the hold up?

Palm Beach County Commissioner Jeff Koons...blamed the county's tardiness on confusion over when cities had to submit their lists of projects for stimulus consideration. For example, Riviera Beach, Royal Palm Beach and Wellington never responded to the MPO's call for cities to submit wish lists.

Koons said the MPO never gave the cities a clear deadline by which to respond.

With all correspondence being publicly available, you'd think that we could actually see if the MPO is covering for someone or if they shot off an email without a date.
