"Honolulu currently has $6.827 billion in tax revenue and federal money set aside for rail."  HART's numbers are simply unreliable.  I don't know how anyone is going to be able to make a good decision with inconsistent/incomplete numbers and math errors.

Slide 6 from today's meeting shows $4.977 B in surcharge revenue, $1.551 B in federal grant funding and $.3 B in beginning balance.  That totals $6.828 B, not $6.827 B.  How/when did the federal funding increase from $1.550 B to $1.551 B?

In addition, the cap that was put on HART's budgets is $6.831 billion, which was the total projected revenue according to HART's 3/31/16 Capital Plan Cash Flows report.  Why is that not the amount that is being considered?  When will we be given correct numbers?
