The Morris Sun-Tribune reports in this article (registration needed :-( ) that the waterpark initiative (discussed earlier in the context of the school levy) failed by a vote of 876 against and 543 in favor. Mayor Wilcox has not given up, however:
“It’s not a dead issue,� she said. “It will come back. And sooner than later.�
I’m glad that the city is going to bring it up again, as I think it deserves a second hearing. I do hope, however, that they wait until after the school levy is decided in November. I fear, though, that they’ll put it on that ballot and we’ll have them both to choose from, which will only confuse matters.
