Attorney Bill Aleshire represents the group aiming to prevent the ATP from proceeding without another election, calling the situation a 'con' on Austin taxpayers.
This lawsuit is brought because Austin taxpayers are not getting anything close to the benefit of the bargain they made for the Project Connect 'Contract With the Voters'.
In November 2020, when voters approved funding, city and transit officials anticipated the total cost of the plan to be about $7.1 billion, but they expected the federal government to pay for 45 percent of that.
