Alderman O’Brien
Thank you. Any questions by any of members of the Board on this matter? No? | would just like to say that |
am glad we are doing this, | think we have under-utilized an asset. We are very fortunate to have two rivers
going through and in increasing the boat ramp, | think the emergency needs with the dive rescue team would
be a great asset in an emergency situation. So | am glad to see this project go through. Very good.
