See this recent TV Report.
Smart Trains use eminent domain but force private property owners to pay for own crossings
The Board of Supervisors have commissioned studies for trolleys to run from Fairfax to San Rafael. Make no mistake. This is all about building low income housing and getting federal tax dolllars. The trolley people want to build a network of trolley lines throughout the neighborhoods of Marin.
see www.marintrolleys.org.
It all seems so nice until you consider the real world implications. The trolley will significantly add to commute times, cause congested traffic and create access problems for thousands of property owners.
We live in the 21st century. We need to make peace with our time and forget returning to the 19th century way of life. Many exciting green transportation alternatives exist that will allow us to get
to our destinations quickly and cheaply. Wouldn't you rather spend time with your loved ones than on crowded public transportation?
