We must evaluate the potential impact of <br />managing, operating, and maintaining these improvements not only for specific <br />project areas but also for the city at large. ! recognize that some of these <br />issues can be addressed in more detail in the feasibilJLy study stage; but, <br />let us not fall into the trap of leaving .everythin~ Lo be evaluated in the <br />feasibility study... After all, how many feasibility studies have ever recom- <br />mended a project as not being feasible? <br /> <br />If all .we do' is tO pIan for a method of financing the construction-of improve- <br />ments we are, in my opinion, only satisfying a part of our responsi.bilities to <br />the citizens we were elected or appointed Lo serve. Before making decisions <br />of lasting impact and importance, we owe it to ~he city Lo know what we are <br />ge[ting ourselves into. ' <br /> <br /> <br />
