RE: Talk about wasting money....

in #ireland2 days ago

The other part of the story is the level of deceit for really doing it. They'd never spent that kind of money for any "school group to contact with the water", it might have been five million but still that's a lot of money and the real reason is they spent years trying to convince regulatory agencies to remove the dams in our city so they could generate millions off people coming here to ride the rapids. After years of trying they were told they could remove two small dams that don't amount to much but a couple bumps but the big dam they got denied so now they want to make it so people can go tubing down the river, with high banks and most of the city having high cement walls running through it, they are trying to adjust the bank levels in anticipation of making money off people who'll come here to go tubing. Which isn't much fun if you are just floating between cement walls and high banks, plus I guess you could consider it "off ramp" accessibility for people who want to stop along the way or emergency access for first responders, but the level of deceit and lying is unbelievable.
