That would state Sen. David Hoyle on your $32 million U.S. National Whitewater Center. Seems the $1.8 million in public money needed to build a road to the thing is all jammed up.
But the truly fascinating thing is that Marc Basnight and Jim Black and all the local poo-bahs nonetheless found some money for the road.
