Thank Goodness for people who are starting to think for themselves!!! I was concerned that people would start to BELIEVE the BS coming from City hall !!- $600+ a square foot is normal construction costs, 200k+ bathrooms at over $400 a square foot are usual and customary costs too, bathroom sewer hookups cost 33k, moderate bathroom elevations cost $38,500 instead of the usual 5k,etc And yes, unfortunately, it IS the same old song- City officials are STILL throwing our tax dollars away by the truckloads when they pay TRIPLE, QUADRUPLE and more for basic construction services. They HAVE NO RESPONSES to those questions and cant deny the numbers so they launch personal attacks or make up fictitious stories about actually doing DUE DILIGENCE, for instance. Except for Dotson, the Council is more interested in making a legacy for themselves than helping the community to improve itself in a way they can still afford. The City has indebted the residents for well over 400k so far for the bathrooms and I predict the costs will STILL go significantly higher AND it will be several more months before they become operational. Is there ANYBODY in the Springs who has a 200k+ bathroom? Absurd. Nobody is suggesting that anybody preach anything- let the numbers speak for themselves and they will speak VOLUMES about repeated costs overruns in the HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of tax dollars that disappear with EVERY project they undertake. NOBODY can be that stupid on EVERY project, can they? Sooner or later the sensible people in this town will wake up to these blatant boondoggles and start thinking for themselves. Then will come the changes. They just need to be educated with regards to the facts involved. So, by all means, please look at the numbers and decide for yourself whether a repeated pattern of mismanagement, ineptitude, and/or worse is happening in our City. I am voting for the Trifecta. The numbers dont lie or mislead, which is more than I can say for our City officials. Most people frown when they are being robbed, dont they? The robbers only frown when they are exposed and caught.
I tried to post this THREE TIMES on MS.com and was rejected each time, after carefully copying the captchas. Wonder why. I will try to post it again tomorrow.
