GGH Transportation and Growth Plan

[bravado]

The Region still had engineers working on it, though. We published one or two sets of functional design plans that the bids were made against and very changes were made to them.

GrandLinq's engineers only decided how to build it, not what to build, and the "what" still needed our own engineers.

I understand that...but the budget that's being discussed here that is so utterly absurd, is not including that work...the budget is specifically the scope of work of the private company...hence saying the budget is inflated because the public sector is inefficient is not only debatable because the public sector isn't necessarily inefficient, it's completely abusrd because it has nothing to do with the public sector.

Not necessarily - I think it’s a likely possible scenario that our local engineers, who have no incentive towards cost savings, presented a plan that followed every wasteful law and ordinance and then sent that outrageous summary to the contractors to be inflated again.
