  1. So they’re going to rely heavily on the shitty last consultant’s report. Why did they add all the new projects when deferred maintenance was the most pressing problem? Sounds like more good money after bad. Sell it off. Win-win.

    • Spirit is a good place for many bored & downed with local winter. Why kill the hill? You want youth stay home and use drugs instead? Sure, you’ll have one time $$ for the sale and then what? Try to go after aquarium first – it doesn’t help youth in their regular activities and still a burden to the city ;))

  2. The City has a decision to make: Either spend a million each year to keep the hill going, or get rid of it. Instead the council punts to the committee and the committee punts to the “expert”. The $74K spent on the experts report is worthless, if the City is looking for a revenue neutral ski hill.
