I'm afraid my remarks were slightly misquoted. After considerable effort and research over several months, I said "no way" to the intermodals, not "no way" to progress. There are many alternative ideas that are more suited to La Porte County and we recently shared two we found with our county redevelopment commissions.
30,000 jobs nationwide: http://tinyurl.com/2recdy 1,100 jobs for La Porte County: http://tinyurl.com/368ohb We received prompt and courteous responses from each commission indicating they would explore the options we suggested. |

Railroads are pushing farmers and locals out to build intermodal sites all over the south. Maybe all opposing groups should ban together! Check out the fight in Polk County, FL.
