Impact analysis
The city spent nearly $124K of public money on the dam-fill work, and the key question is whether that price bought real value or just covered questionable costs.
The contractor or firm paid to do the dam-fill work clearly got paid; city officials may also benefit if the investigation clears up questions about the spending.
Taxpayers are the ones on the hook if the $124K wasn’t well spent—and residents who care about the controversial dam could be affected too.
