No it was an exaggeration...Wow! Billions of dollars? You must live in a rich place with that kind of money at the county level! I'm impressed!
Agree with the point you are making though...
Our county loves to keep raising taxes 5-10% every year. Then they announced the street sign replacement program during covid. Doesn't help the fact that my street address has 3 different map locations depending if you are looking on your GPS/internet/post office/county office.
Putting my street name on my number doesn't change the fact that there are 3 different streets with the same name that don't join up anywhere.
