From the Meaning of Liff:

Our “alternative transportation coordinator” who doesn’t live in the city but commutes by car! won’t let anybody see what’s going on with the scammy Amtrak station site selection process which has climbed to an improbably projected cost of $81 million. Since we are talking about Amtrak and redacting. From the article:

“One page of an email from a Federal Railroad Administration official offering feedback on the city’s draft alternatives analysis.
