LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - NewsChannel 11 is learning more about a planned expansion to the Citibus Transfer Plaza in downtown Lubbock. The city just approved a grant from TxDOT last week. It will be used to design the expansion of the Greyhound terminal at the plaza. TxDOT awarded the city $93,750 for the project. The city's been in charge of Greyhound operations for just more than a year now. They took over in August of last year, and installed temporary storage and counter facilities. While the city takes care of the facility, they won't have to spend city money on the upgrades. "There is no city money in this at all. In fact, it's 100% funding, and this $93,750 is just the beginning. That's just to get the design started and start the drawings," Citibus General Manger John Wilson said.____(Ben Lawson/KCBD copy)_____
"Fatman" John Wilson has announced that "state tax dollars" will be spent on the Greyhound/CitiBus facility that taxpayers got when Greyhound pulled out of the Lubbock market. CitiBus is a for-profit endeavor that is now getting both city subsidy and state subsidy so "Fatman" John Wilson can get his "big salary". CitiBus is not covered by Open Records Act so "Fatman" John Wilson's salary is secret. It's no secret it(his salary) would have to be substantial to maintain that "massive waisteline".
Oh,"Fatman",still eating 6 meals a day&some snacks??_______________________________________________
