Letter: Time to rethink highway project

To the editor:

I read in last week’s Graphic that the bid for Lake City’s new two-lane highway came in over $2.5 million over budget with Lake City contributing $3.5 million to the project.

Isn’t it time to maybe rethink the whole project? If we keep the four-lanes the state will overlay it free. It wouldn’t cost the city anything.

I think our $3.5 million could be used for the betterment of Lake City by paying down debt on our new police station and the remodeling of the high school.
