Southbank Riverwalk completion Funding still in Limbo

The reconstruction for the Southbank Riverwalk is approximately 2 million dollars short, which depending on who you ask was made clear from the start or was never disclosed prior to starting?… However the bottom line is without the additional funding we will have the Southbank Riverwalk, “The Riverwalk to Nowhere”

An Emergency Resolution failed to pass in the Finance Committee however there is a Council Meeting next Tuesday where the subject could again be addressed.

I urge anyone with an interest in Friendship Fountain and/or the Southbank Riverwalk to contact their Council Representative and plead to have this important project funded completely.
