$150M to relocate a zoo and expand a park??? Seems like some monkey business to me.

That is the starting point.
Has a govt project ever come in on time and under budget?

Greenwood park expansion
- numbers will jump alone from the restless locals borrowing the construction company and Brec's equipment. Years ago they had a park under the interstate they were opening on a Sat. Brec had to delay it because the restless locals borrowed all the picnic tables.

PS- NBR, the zoo would not have to move if the people of NBR would support it. Guess what the numbers show people in NBR do not support the zoo.

Why would you keep it there?

The people who support the zoo do not live or want to visit NBR!

The lion's share of that will go to a well-connected contractor.
