n.— «When the toll roads were built, the TCA said no taxpayer money would be used to operate roads, Fitts said. But the term “shadow tolls” seems to be a euphemism for “taxpayer-supported toll road,” he said.» —“San Onofre tollway still ‘in the planning,’ OCTA chairman says” by David Reyes Los Angeles Times Mar. 28, 2008.
