Greetigns All,
I was reading about the recommended marina area improvements and it made me
wonder. It seems like our city government would better serve its own interests
by attracting people to areas where retail sales can be made. I noted the
splash pad, kind of like what they have at Carl Cowan park in Knoxville, set at
the marina.
It seems like that money would be better spent attracting people to Grove Center or Jackson Square. Why not put a splash pad at one of these places, or some place similar? This would be along the lines of the splash pad in Knoxville’s Market Square.
Don’t get me started on the bridge………..

Regarding the Alexander inn - we need things that are economically viable,
not more demands on the public purse. And hopefully something with a decent
landlord-tenant relationship. What is it about Oak Ridge landlords and
their reaction to new businesses that actually seem to be thriving?
I believe the proposed marina plans can be found on the city web site.
The city is all worried about sign construction and seems to have allowed a
trailer park to appear on our turnpike. Are they trying to turn the east
end into Detroit????????????????????????????
I am quite frankly SHOCKED. I can see a building like this on wharehouse
road (and thought they would not even be permitted there), but on the
turnpike?????
What is up with that.
