"Caldwell replied that “I think we’ve given very clear numbers, we told them we need about $8.2 billion total to build this project,” and estimated rail will cost as much as $10 billion when financing costs are figured in."

That is HILARIOUS!!

"We clearly told them we need $8.2 billion total and a total of $10 billion when you figure in other things about the project that might cost money.  So we definitely need exactly $8.2 billion or closer to $10 billion... unless something​ comes up."

Thanks for clearing that up Mayor.
