Delayed SMART irony

"EDITOR: It is ironic that a strategist who was very responsible for an eight-year delay in funding the SMART train and trail project is now crowing about the challenges of an unpredictable bond market. (“SMART’s money problem is no surprise,” Close to Home, Thursday) In 2004 and again in 2006, the opponents of passenger rail service, mostly in Marin County, were able to keep this essential project on hold.

If voters had approved the project in 2004, we would be riding trains and using the bicycle-pedestrian pathway today. Had SMART passed in 2006, both construction and financing costs would be much lower than now expected.

JOE CLENDENIN"
