The Baton Rouge Recreation and Parks Commission’s draft plan, called “Imagine Your Parks 2: Better Parks, Better Living,” calls for more walking/biking trails and a host of other health-conscious initiatives residents asked for during community comment meetings held around the parish.
The 100-page proposal, now available on BREC’s website, includes more than $72 million in ambitious capital outlay improvements for the parish’s park system.
However, Stephen Hammond, of the Wallace Roberts & Todd planning firm, said BREC will need approximately $52 million in additional revenue to make the improvements happen.

Didn't they just get a huge revenue/millage increase just a few years ago?

Really? They have what, $82M saved, just got another huge yearly renewal, and they need $52M to do more worthless shite?
What a fricking joke.

Where does BREC plan on putting these walking/biking trails? If they are to be built within existing parks, then $72 million sounds outlandish. What level of utilization of the proposed trails would justify $72 million of expenditures for construction plus annual maintenance costs?
Why should walking/biking trails be treated different than golf courses with respect to user fees?

Parks, libraries, etc all good things so they get blank checks it seems.
