President Barack Obama’s $250 million fiscal 2012 budget request for the project is only one of several federal appropriations the city is seeking. A Page B1 article Sunday incorrectly reported that the city would use general fund revenues, and it implied that only $250 million of the $1.55 billion total federal funds sought will be budgeted for the project. Also, City Councilwoman Ann Kobayashi said the city has "already spent $120 million" in the transit fund, not $120,000 as she was misquoted as saying. And the Federal Transit Administration must approve the city’s financial plan. The story gave an incorrect name for the agency.

» Tickets for the English Beat concert at 7 p.m. Sunday at SoHo Mixed Media Bar are $30, $60 VIP and $25 in advance, for those 18 and over, at groovetickets.com.
