Color me shocked -- Tarrant County College District trustees withstood pressure Tuesday night from some downtown business leaders to revamp its plans for a sunken plaza at its new downtown campus, saying the college can't afford the time and money a redesign would take. The seven-member board instead unanimously voted to proceed with its original plan. The board heard from its staff and members of the construction team who said a redesign could cost tens of millions of dollars and possibly delay the opening of the campus from 12 to 18 months.
