What MMSD Is NOT Saying

 The Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewage District (MMSD)--an outfit created by Democrats and run accordingly--has an announcement about flooding in Milwaukee!!

 

...MMSD hopes to prevent some of that flooding by converting Jackson Park into a flood management basin. It’s one of four basin projects the district is fast-tracking after last August’s historic flooding....

 ...The basins will be built in Jackson Park, north of 35th and Capitol, in Wilson Park, and near Alro Steel at Sixth and Bolivar.

What they're saying:

"Once these four projects are built, they'll add about 200 million gallons of storage into the waterways, so you'll be able to store water in parks or in open areas, and not put water in people's basements," Shafer said.

Those projects are slated for completion between 2029 and 2033 and are part of $900 million in future flood control work planned over the next 10 to 15 years....

What are they NOT saying?  Glad you asked!!

"Whoops!!  Whoopsie!!  The calculations we made for floods and flood-controls were compromised by politicians who didn't have the courage to tell tax-payers what it would really cost.  So we are now adding ONE BILLION MORE DOLLARS to the overall total cost of the project and hoping that you won't notice.  Please send your poison-pen letters to Henry Maier and John Norquist.  Sincerely, MMSD" 

Democrats run on "environmental" issues.  They spend enormous amounts of money to "fix stuff," but the enormous amounts are never enough because the Democrats lie, and lie, and lie to cover their incompetence and Pie-in-the-Sky promises.

Oh--by the way--the entire City of Brookfield will be contributing to this despite the fact that the western half of that City is in the Mississippi River watershed.  Thank you, Katie Bloomberg!!!
