Is there misleading information regarding T-SPLOST? I have been reading with interest as the “for” and “against” supporters of T-SPLOST articulate their views and reasonings regarding this proposed vote to increase local sales tax. I have yet to read the answer to one question: Are the nine road projects for widening major arteries and intersection improvements already funded at this point? I have been told those nine projects are already funded and according to a statement by Srikanth Yamala (transportation planning manager for the Gainesville-Hall Metropolitan Planning Organization) on Feb. 23, “all of these projects will be completed with or without the TIA funding.”
Your Views: Road projects will go on, tax or no
