Is the 15 million from the state on top of the 5 million the BOCS voted to put towards the parking garage on Aug. 7, or is that included?

I am totally amazed with Prince William County. You find our money to do everything else with but then you leave your seniors out and have them paying high rent in senior living complexes, some don't have money to get their medicine and food, livining day by day wondering where their second meal is coming from. I was told yesterday we have a waiting list of more than over nine thousand families waiting to get housing. We don't have adequate bus service on the weekends for people to get back and forth to work. No service at all on Sundays and no transportation to get out of the county if they have jobs else where. We continue to build and people that are working in the stores and those that will be working at the stadium and if you have a game on Sundays they will have to catch TAXI'S to get to work which they are doing now. I have been silent lately but I am back I like to look at the whole pitcher. What will happen with the land after you move to the new stadium.
