List of Public Works Projects that Will Lose Funding is Published

The crazy California budget battle is going to really hit home for many communities in California soon. If the state can not come up with a spending plan, the public works projects that are dependent upon bonds approved with funds approved in 2006 could screech to a halt.

State Treasurer Bill Lockyer posted the list of projects here.

The list is 67 pages long and includes hundreds of projects!

We are talking about school programs, highways, water projects and hospitals in every corner of the state.

The LA Times article discusses the impact to the LA community and the SacBee article talks about the statewide perspective.
