Cindy covers the meeting just fine, but in introducing a public issue like this, I'd like to hear from the other side. It wouldn't surprise me that no one at the meeting was standing up to say, "we don't need to spend money on this."
There seems to be a certain amount of keep-up-with-the-Joneses thinking in Council's consideration of Emperor McCasland's recommendation. The crux of the issue seems to be competitive swimmers. How many of those live here compared to the five to eight million clams the project will eat?

I encourage you to share your own views and experience with me and other readers. How you do that matters, and I'm committed to maintaining a place where readers and commenters can feel safe from adolescent BS. So here's the deal:
There are two kinds of anonymous comments: those by people who have a genuine fear of revenge from the dark side, and those from darksiders just hiding to avoid accountability. You may post comments anonymously, but I reserve the right to treat anonymous comments as found items that belong to me and do with them as I see fit.
If, on the other hand, you're willing to stand by your convictions and post under your own name or a regular handle, your comments belong to you, and I'll edit them only on egregious violations of respect for others.
If this doesn't work for you, I'm sure you'll be happier somewhere else.
