These are the facts:
Mayor Doug England-Spent 40 Million Dollars on Sewers
Mayor Regina Overton-Spent 44 Million Dollars on Sewers
Mayor James Garner -Wants to spend 18.6 Million dollars on a Natatorium for Scribner Place.
Does it make sense to spend this kind of money for a 'Natatorium' when the EPA is requiring the following improvements in order to recieve 1,024,400 credits to complete the following projects:
1. Completion of Bar Screen Repairs
2. Completion of Robert E. Lee lift station improvement
3. One year from date of Robert E. Lee lift station improvements without capacity related overflows
Have we put all of our eggs in one basket?
Freedom of Speech feels it is time for this Adminstration to do what is best for all the citizens of New Albany first.
After spending over 84 Million Dollars on sewers it's time to put our priorites in order. No amount of trips to Chicago, Washington and letters being mailed to Congressman and Senators will change the fact that our sewers have to be fixed. We can not generate more tax dollars without these credits.
The bottom line: It is time to stop putting the cart before the horse! And do the right thing..... FIX OUR SEWERS!
