since it’s FEMA I assume it is with the intent of avoiding flooding on US 29 (aka Norht Century BLVD) in case the road is needed for an evacuation. Avoiding flooding should be worh some money for the people of the town and seems to be worth quite a bit of money to the people wishing to be able to get out of the way of a disaster so they aren’t stuck in Century.

Some things are not a good deal at any price. Should the town be in the real estate business? Continuing to buy land when it owns so much that so little is being done with .. For what? Maybe there is a reason why this grant is not good for the town, did anyone ask that?

One could easily come to the conclusion that Mr. Hawkins is playing his own personal game of power trip. Whether or not that be the case, what I believe that he and most others clouded by the insensability of the matter seem to forget is…the power of the people. We care about our community and the property of our citizens that will benefit from this project. I move that we, the people, excercise and little initiative and pay the engineer ourselves. 600 people spending one buck will lay this matter to rest. I’ll give the first dollar.

I do not know what his reasoning was to vote against the allocation of money. But, it sure seems to me he is taking Micro Manageing to a whole new level!

When will he be up for election, please post of all of Century to see. Mr. Hawkins is proving he is a bigger fool than those who elected him.
