I was really shocked that the numbers were played around with so much at the meeting. The amount started at 1.7 million and then was increased to 2.0 million. There was much discussion about the rest of the project (box culvert under RR tracks) and its additional cost of $200,000 to $400,000. The Council opted to not include this cost in the referendum because some felt it would change peoples decision. Your right having the true facts and costs will change peoples decision. In the end it was 2 million and the council will make the other 200,000-400,000 a seperate project that the taxpayers will be see added onto their taxes as well. Give us real details not ones you think we want to hear. What a joke. Read the writing on the referendum, "An amount NOT TO EXCEED 2 MILLION" it means nothing.

I wish we could sue the individuals who ordered the lake drained and make them pay to restore it to its former self, even if it was 2 feet deep. Brillant leadership in this town. Now it is full of brush and trees growing. Should have used the extra bricks from downtown and bricked over the lake. Would you take the shingles off your roof because it leaks in one spot, if you knew you had NO MONEY to buy a new roof.....uh probably not....unless your in Evansville government.

I live here because I enjoy living in a town with a bumpy brick road, empty downtown storefronts, overpriced taxes, a park named Lake Leota park (no lake), few if any jobs, and crooked government officials.

Just where is this town? Try reading what you type. This article is almost as bad as the Brodhead flood article.

Downtown main street= Bumpy road, slippery road, unstripped road, dangerous parking, lights that shine up (light pollution anyone!), empty store fronts galore, and lets just keep growing on the east side.... who plans this stuff?
The next time they try for historic go back further in time. No lights, no road, no shops, no people.........oh thats right...we are on our way......
