Huge cost overruns and slow progress @ Mountain House

This interesting Phil Hayworth article on Delta's "buyers remorse" is from July 2006 and issued by the San Joaquin News Service. It shows the disarray in the Board over Mountain House. There is a wonderfully ominous statement by Leroy Ornelas, SJC supervisor for the Tracy area.
Excerpt:
