I do believe this was also an instance of work (pipes) that could have been done in one big go with the same work being done on ION, but where businesses said it would be much better to spread out the pain, and now they are getting the consequences of that.
Doing the work at the same time as ION wasn't really ever on the table. The approvals for the plan only came in in time to start this year. It was actually the BIA's decision to not wait until 2018, and to get shovels in the ground immediately.
