Three times during Palin's time as mayor, earmark funding for projects in Wasilla were noted in [[John McCain]]'s list of "objectionable" spending. In 2001, McCain's list of spending approved without normal budget scrutiny identified a $500,000 earmark for a public transportation project in the city. In 2002, McCain noted a $1 million earmark for an emergency communications center, considered redundant according to local law enforcement. Also, $450,000 was set aside for an agricultural processing facility during Palin's time as mayor.<ref>[http://www.latimes.com/news/la-na-earmarks3-2008sep03,0,6145252.story McCain had criticized earmarks from Palin]</ref>
