I was one of the "out of touch idiots" ten years ago that responded to a vote to fund an aquatic center. A vote that passed by 86%. The action was in response to a need identified by the community. Cost of center was app 1.3 million, 750,00 of which was bonded , the rest was donated by the community.
The center will never be self supporting but if run more effectively with emphasis on volume the deficit would be decreased. Government response to deficits is to raise taxes or charges, very seldom do they reacte with expense cuts and increased volume. Citizens should come forth with positive ideas to improve the bottom line. Marketing the center should a top priority.
