I'd put 2 plans on the ballot instead of 1 this time.  Have Plan 1 which handles funding for light rail within the city of Cincinnati itself and Plan 1A which includes light rail service to other parts of the county.  1A could include suburbs near 275 and stops in Norwood.  Plan 1 gets voted on by Cincinnati residents, and Plan 1A gets voted on by Hamilton county residents (contingent, obviously, on the passing of Plan 1).  That way the city's fate isn't tied to the suburbs like it was back in 2002.  If Plan 1A fails, then the city can proceed with Plan 1 and people living in Mason, West Chester, etc can keep driving to downtown.  Oh, and if KY wants extensions, they should fund a Plan 2 themselves.
