VOTE BELOW ON THE NOLAN CREEK PROJECT
Given the continued attempts to hype-up the Nolan Creek Project to justify over a million in tax-dollars spent for Nolan Creek entertainment and the track-record of creek E coli contamination as well as thousands of gallons of sewage spilled into the creek on more than one occasion…
…The Nolan Creek Project has boosted the Belton economy so much that spending over a million dollars to encourage people to swim and entertain in the creek is justified.
…Belton’s city council members, mayor and city manager have not justified the return on the million-plus in tax-dollars invested. The Nolan Creek project is a boondoggle. It is a total waste of time and money. Tax-dollars could have been better used in other areas of Belton.
…I feel safe and will continue to encourage family and friends to swim in and eat fish caught from Nolan Creek.
