Mounds Lake Reservoir -
"To be, or not to be". (Note:
I did not write that line)
The points is, the Mounds Lake Reservoir
represents either one of the best, and possibly only ways to change the economic and cultural life of our
city OR a project which will destroy scenic sections of the White River and require the evacuation of hundreds of homes and
businesses.
In social studies classes at AHS students
learn that none of the important economic and social questions are black or white. We often discuss that with
regards to issues as varied as abortion, labor unions, trade policies, even the proposed Mounds Lake Reservoir...the
answer is not in the back of the book!
A recent
display at the Mounds Mall gave supporters of moving forward with the reservoir a great opportunity to demonstrate the transformative
possibility of the project.
Several of my Econ. Lovers
took advantage of chance to learn more about the Mounds Lake Reservoir proposal.
