Stimulus Watch: Keeping an Eye on Economic Recovery Spending

This site lets you look state by state at what the money will be going for. I browsed through the A towns listed for Texas. I saw 2 frisbee golf courses, botanical garden, and a skate park. Hmmmmm not really something that requires stimulus money in my opinion.

What do you find for your state?

Nothing for San Diego so far but a neighboring community Chula Vista is slated for a dog park for $500,000.00. Could be used for a homeless shelter instead or fixing the damn street lights. :-5

Started doing a little reading on the site. The projects listed aren't in the stimulus, they are just shovel ready projects or candidates to get the funding.
