do the math
The bathrooms are 558 square feet, each, for a total of 1116 square feet. The documented costs SO FAR are $405,000, with SIGNIFUCANTLY more to come. Do the math and it comes to $363 a square foot SO FAR. And it is MONTHS behind schedule. Without a doubt there WILL BE other costs associated with this project for "forgotten", omitted, or overlooked items AND they will be TRIPLE what anybody else has to pay for those very same services. It bears repeating until a satisfactory answer is found- If they CANT build bathrooms on time and on budget what would make ANY rational person believe that they can build a new communtiy center on time and on budget? The answer is, of course, that THEY CANT, and WONT, and the residents will be stuck with the bills for DECADES. Perhaps, as some say, if the Springs residents allow this to happen without a protest or a fight, they deserve the consequences. Apathy certainly seems to be what the City officials are counting on, even tho a DOZEN TRUCKLOADS of money has disappeared in the past and a HUNDRED truckloads of money will disappear with this new project. Most people object strongly when their pocket is being picked and their money stolen. Why are all the taxpayers NOT objecting NOW? City officials have been revealed and exposed as incompetents and worse on MULTIPLE occasions in multiple ways and on multiple platforms (here, ads, Gazette) and still the no indignant and offended cry from the people is heard! Can it be that they are right- the people are too ignorant and/or apathetic to mount any resistance to the multiple muggings they have received, and WILL CONTINUE to receive? What do YOU say?
