Moving on to the technology, I understand that some of the administrative system with Public Works is antiquated at best. How do you think this problem grew to be so far backlogged? Is it a lack of financial resources, or a failure in budgeting? Is it a lack of vision or planning? I'm having trouble understanding how a system like that could be allowed to deteriorate for 30 years and be that far behind. If anything, we should be leading the way.
