River Development in Spite of Ourselves??

Maybe someone can help clarify what I saw on Channel 24 last night. I was channel surfing and went past 24 when two folks from StepUpTulsa were speaking to our city counselors. They were speaking of their vision for the city. Lots of it was walkable neighborhoods, all citizens hand-in-hand, so on, and so on. But several things that went past my ears included a plan to develop the river. Really! How is this possible? The other bit of information was that when fully up, foundation funding could be putting hundreds of millions of dollars into the enconomy yearly! You who watch Channel 24, did I hear that correctly? We'll look thru their website to see if we can get any further information. Also, funds are going to come from the Tulsa Community Foundation? Looks like I have some homework.


P.S. - If our city comes back to us for taxes to develop the river, we might want to think twice.
