Nice of the city to kick in 13%  (7 million dollars) of the taxpayers monies for this project...

Never know what the city may decide to back next.... ::)

This gets money but the proposed indoor water park hotel with outdoor white water course gets pee'd on.

I cringe at those two procreating.


Swoosh

I'm honestly surprised that Ripley's didn't open an Aquarium in Branson already.  I'm also a little shocked they haven't introduced any of their attractions at the Landing.  A Guinness World Records would go over well there. 
SWOOSH

Are you referring to the one proposed by Westgate resorts?  Did that one get the ax or is it still going to happen?

I totally agree. TIFs and tax breaks = Corporate welfare at the expense of taxpayers. Branson taxes the hell out of tourists and then gives it away. But, not any different than any other tourist destination. When your hotel tax is almost 12% maybe you do not need my business anymore.

OK, Rant over.

NO westgate at SOTH and Gretna is being funded by westgate themselves.. I dont know if they will ever get it finiched, but it is all theirs...

Chittlins was talking about the proposed 400 million dollar park , they "wanted" to build west and just north of Celebration City.....
