Governor, lawmakers unveil plan to use $76.8M federal windfall to fund ferries for 18 months

1. Question is how do you get to sustainable after you burn through the windfall?

I agree with the stimulus but worry that state and local governments won't have the hard discussions and plan adequately for what happens after the fed funds run out. Looking at Seattle close by, all appearances are that downtown will remain a ghost town as tech and other office workers are voting in droves to work from home at least a majority of the time. Issue is not Covid, but no one wants to waste the time and money in commuting. Return of tourists will help but that is highly seasonal. Although as Brazil, India and others seem doomed to be ongoing human petri dishes for dangerous new strains of Covid, this is far from over.
