The Salty Summer Sounds concert series wraps up with our very own Saline Fiddlers. Saline's famous youth fiddle, vocal and dance group bring their top-tapping, smile-inducing Americana to downtown Saline.

Patchy rain nearby, with a high of 53 and low of 22 degrees. Overcast for the morning, cloudy for the afternoon and evening, clear overnight.
I have to commend the Saline City manager and engineer for keeping their cool and for their professionalism during the three hour Mill Pond Dam town hall meeting.
I think what's insulting is that the city is bloating the numbers to bolster their case.
Logically, the dam has no practical use. Of course, it's going to cost more. Of course, there's a level of risk there. Of course, over some period of time, it's going to cost more to maintain than a stream.
Life cycle cost analysis is certainly appropriate when considering new assets, but it may not be as appropriate when evaluating existing assets.
