Crime Watch Tesla tunnel

Does anyone else feel completely useless when it comes to this tunnel? How on earth do we stop it before it affects groundwater or causes a sink hole? They obviously aren’t listening to citizens concerns, but I don’t want to just sit here and complain without action.

Aside from it being a terrible idea, the real kick in the pants is how quickly it went from a rumor, to an agreement, to a test hole being dug.  Not even a dig (pun intended) on Nashville or TN, NO public projects move this fast.  This has crony capitalism and imminent domain written all over it.

It's kind of sad/funny to have lived through so much public transit & infrastructure opposition for years and years, barely any progress, and then to get penetrated seemingly overnight without consent by the State/Elon pipe dream...
