In North Carolina Railroad had $52,189,201 in debt at the end of 2013, and $4,927,993 in "Cash and cash equivalents" (page 20), where did they get the money, and where is the rest going to come from and when?
I guess some of the $69,099,060 on page 23

This thing looks like a crony capitalist slush fund
The company earns all its money from a long-term lease to Norfolk Southern Railway, which uses its rail to haul freight, including two lines through downtown Greensboro.

"Board designated funds $42,782,592" on page 28, meaning the North Carolina Railroad has the money to fund the water/sewer infrastructure to the site.
If they pay for it, I am all in.
If not, and Greensboro is asked for the money Melvin and his fellow parasites,
then they can go fuck themselves with their stolen taxpayer skimmed money
